Cultivating Immortality in a World of Chaos - Chapter 320

[Chapter 319 Seeing Through (Congratulations to the Leader of Fire, Rain, Ice and Wind!)]

The territory of the Yuan Kingdom is very vast. Even if a Jindan cultivator controls the escape light to fly from south to north, it often takes ten days or half a month.

Not to mention, Fang Xi would not be able to fly at full speed, but would need to travel to many markets to purchase and sell stolen goods.

Fortunately, even though he was in the early stage of Jindan, he was still a very high-level cultivator in Yuan Kingdom. He frequently went in and out of the market, but the transaction amount was not too large each time, and his face changed, so there was no fun plot of robbers coming to his door.

After walking out of the last “Meishan Market”, Fang Xi sighed.

Now he had almost dealt with the low-level magic materials and elixirs in his storage bag that he had no use for, and exchanged them for dozens of high-quality spirit stones.

As for high-end and fine materials?

There may not be any cultivators who know the value of goods in the small market, and most of these transactions have reached the stage of barter, which cannot be measured by spirit stones.

Fang Xi plans to find another opportunity to make a move at the Xuankong Mountain Auction.

“I did ask about Ruan Xingling… but there was no news… where did she go?”

After Fang Xi thought about it for a while, he no longer wasted his thoughts, but turned into a ray of green light and rushed towards the Hanging Mountain.

He was still somewhat looking forward to the grand auction here.

It is said that in order to increase the popularity of the market, the Qingye Chamber of Commerce announced that it would auction many rare treasures. Maybe there will be items that can condense infant spirits and spiritual eyes!

…

One month later.

Fang Xi was surrounded by Yimu divine light, and the scenery on both sides quickly retreated.

“Calculating the distance… we should be there soon. The auction is about to start…”

After flying another hundred miles, Fang Xi suddenly stopped, looked ahead, and a look of surprise appeared on his face.

He saw the Hanging Mountain!
No…or rather…a huge mountain suspended in mid-air!

Under the morning sun, a spiritual mountain is suspended ten thousand meters in the sky, shining with light all over, with palaces, halls and attics on top.

There were also a large number of immortal cultivators gathered at the foot of this mountain, and rays of light flew out or in from the Hanging Mountain…

It looks like… a real fairy mountain, with thousands of immortals paying homage!

“Hehe… Is this fellow Taoist seeing the Hanging Mountain for the first time?”

A golden light flew over, revealing a chariot made entirely of gold, with two giant bronze horses snorting in front.

And a laugh came from the carriage.

“A Jindan monk?”

Fang Xi’s heart trembled, and a smile appeared on his ordinary face: “That’s right… I wonder who this fellow Taoist is?”

“Haha, I am the Grand Elder of the Golden Sword Sect – Li Haifeng. This fellow Taoist looks unfamiliar. Could he be a newly promoted Jindan cultivator?”

Li Haifeng was wearing a robe embroidered with golden copper coins. His facial features were gentle and his face was full of smiles. He seemed to be a wealthy man in the mortal world, but his cultivation level seemed to be at the peak of the middle stage of the Jindan stage.

Moreover, there was a faint sharp Gengjin energy in the Dantian, which was obviously extraordinary.

In the Three Kingdoms cultivation world, he would probably be able to sweep away the likes of Bai Feng Zhenren and Zhang Lao Zu…

“That’s right, my surname is Cao!”

Fang Xi bowed and said, “This is indeed my first time here at Hanging Mountain.”

“No wonder… all cultivators who come here for the first time are shocked by the scenery of the Hanging Mountain… There is not only a spiritual vein here, but also an extremely large magnetic ore vein underground…”

Li Haifeng seemed to be interested in making friends, and gave a detailed introduction: “This is the wonder of fate. Otherwise, how many spirit stones would be consumed every day to keep this huge mountain suspended in the air just by relying on the formation? Even the Yuanying sect would be overwhelmed… Later, the ‘Qingye Chamber of Commerce’ invited a fourth-level formation master to come here, relying on the Yuan magnetic veins underground, and specially arranged a set of ‘Nine Palaces Yuan Magnetic Formation’, which uses the Yuan magnetic power of this place… The mountain is yin and the earth is yang. Once it is fully deployed, the two-yin and yang Yuan magnetic divine light will penetrate the sky and the earth. Even the Yuanying old monster will have a headache.”

“I see……”

Fang Xi responded with a smile, but he was also very awed in his heart.

This ‘Nine Palaces Elemental Array’ is probably a fourth-order array!
The strength of the Qingye Chamber of Commerce is truly unfathomable.

After exchanging a few perfunctory words with Elder Li, he arrived outside the market of Xuankong Mountain.

A large number of monks piloting flying magic weapons stopped on several jade platforms, waiting for inspection and entry.

“Ordinary Qi Refining and Foundation Building cultivators… of course they need to queue up, but high-level cultivators like me don’t have to.”

Li Haifeng laughed and brought Fang Xi to a specially made jade platform.

There are only a few cultivators coming and going here, but they all seem to be at the stage of Jindan.

“Old Ghost Bi, I am here. Is your Jade Heart Wine ready this time?”

Li Haifeng controlled the frame, landed on the jade platform, and shouted loudly.

“Haha, since you, Elder Li, have come to visit us, we are naturally prepared.”

With a flash of his figure, a strange Jindan cultivator wearing a turquoise robe and with double pupils appeared. It turned out that his cultivation level was around the middle stage of Jindan.

He first joked with Li Haifeng, then looked at Fang Xi with a hint of surprise in his eyes: “This fellow Taoist is a stranger…”

“My surname is Cao… This is indeed my first time in Hanging Mountain.” Fang Xi smiled slightly and introduced himself, looking like he didn’t want to talk more.

“It turns out to be Fellow Daoist Cao. What a pleasure to meet you!”

Bi Laogui smiled and bowed: “I wonder where the Youxian Township is?”

“I am just a casual cultivator, with no fixed place to live…”

Fang Xi remained calm.

“That’s enough, Old Ghost Bi, why are you still being so fussy? There are no restrictions on foreign cultivators in the Xuankong Mountain Market… From what I know, there are quite a few Jindan cultivators from other countries who have come here to participate in this grand event.”

Li Haifeng said impatiently.

“I’ve said too much… This is your jade identity token, please keep it safe… If you lose it, you may be marked by the formation and be inspected by the law enforcement team.”

Old Ghost Bi chuckled and apologized, handing a white jade token to Fang Xi: “As a high-level cultivator, with this token, you can stay at the Yingke Pavilion for free for three months…”

“Thank you very much.”

Fang Xi thanked him and started playing with the jade token.

This jade pendant is extremely warm and gives off a faint fragrance. It is obvious that the material is very good.

“Okay, now that everything is done, how about we go to Old Ghost Bi’s cave and have some drinks together?”

Li Haifeng suggested.

“Hehe… I have responsibilities on duty, I’m afraid I can’t be with you, brother.” Old Ghost Bi shook his head.

“I also want to take a look around this market first, so I’ll take my leave now.”

Fang Xi bowed and also turned into a green light. He entered the formation from the jade platform and disappeared in an instant.

“Friend Li… do you want to make friends with this person?” Looking at Fang Xi’s back, the smile on Old Ghost Bi’s face grew colder little by little.

“What… did you notice something wrong?” Li Haifeng frowned. He knew very well that this old ghost Bi was born with a pair of ‘psychic eyes’ and he also practiced a spiritual eye technique. With these two skills, he could see through most of the cover-ups. Otherwise, he would not have been sent here to guard the gate of the market town.

“It’s not just inappropriate, it’s extremely inappropriate!”

Old Ghost Bi shook his head: “This person’s appearance is fake, you should have seen his real appearance… But his cultivation level is indeed at the early stage of Jindan.”

“I have seen him?” Li Haifeng couldn’t help but be skeptical: “Impossible… Although I am not as good as you, if I have seen this person before, I will never make a mistake when I see him again.”

“I haven’t met him face to face, but I have seen his portrait…” Old Ghost Bi smiled, took out a jade slip from his storage bag and threw it to Li Haifeng.

Li Haifeng took it and scanned it with his mind. He saw one of the portraits was of a young monk with a lifelike face. It was Fang Xi’s true appearance!
“So it’s this wanted order… This happened decades ago, when it was still the time of the war between good and evil. Although the Hunyuan Sect issued this wanted order, the reward was not high, and it didn’t seem to be taken seriously… Maybe this person offended a Jindan elder of the Hunyuan Sect.”

Li Haifeng suddenly realized: “But this Jindan cultivator has never appeared, so the matter has gradually faded away… But it seems that the Hunyuan Sect has not been disbanded.”

“That’s right. This person has offended the Hunyuan Sect. If Brother Li wants to win him over, you’d better think twice.” Old Ghost Bi said earnestly.

“Thank you for your reminder, since I know how serious it is, I will not go looking for trouble…” Li Haifeng replied with a wry smile, and then he was a little curious: “Since you see through it, why don’t you…”

“Humph, this is a market town. Even if there are demon cultivators coming and going, as long as they don’t go too far, we should turn a blind eye…” Old Ghost Bi smiled mysteriously, “After all, our chamber of commerce values peace… Moreover, the reward offered by the Hunyuan Sect is not very generous. Are you going to fight with a being of the same level for such a small profit? Although he is only in the early stage of Jindan, I don’t know what kind of skills he has practiced, and what magic weapons and secret techniques he has hidden in the bottom of the box… If we fail to kill the tiger, we will suffer greatly.”

“That’s right…” Li Haifeng nodded repeatedly: “I didn’t expect that after not seeing you for many years, you are still as smooth as before, haha, let’s go have a drink…”

“Yes, although I have the responsibility to guard the place, I can still allow a few foundation-building disciples to receive us temporarily…”

Old Ghost Bi laughed loudly and turned into a beam of light, going back to the cave with Li Haifeng for a feast.

…

Fang Xi didn’t know that the grade of this rare treasure, the Mirage Pearl, was too low and it would be seen through by a Jindan cultivator who had practiced the powerful Spirit Eyes Technique.

However, his own cultivation level was not exposed because his breath-concealing secret technique of Kuruo Jue was high-level enough.

At this time, he first went to the ‘Yingkexuan’ and selected a cave, and found that there was actually third-grade top-grade spiritual energy, which made him very satisfied.

“You can stay here for free for three months… After the auction, it would be nice to practice here for a while.”

After settling down, Fang Xi put his hands behind his back and strolled around the market in Xuankong Mountain with great interest.

As the grand auction was approaching, the market town was bustling with monks coming and going, and many stalls had some fine products on display.

Of course, there are more scams and deceptions.

Fang Xi looked around and had an idea of the pricing of most of the immortal cultivation resources in Yuan Kingdom.
