With the presence of Lord Qing's clone, the exchange proceeded in an orderly manner.
Chen Lin was watching from the sidelines. Although he did not get any suitable treasures, he saw many rare treasures, which was quite eye-opening.
At the same time, he was also shocked by the background of these bloodline families. There were probably dozens of bloodline families present, and each one was extraordinary. When they united, they might be more powerful than the Super Immortal City. Such a large force rarely entered the public eye.
In addition to the bloodline families, there are also hidden families like the Ji family, which are also a force that cannot be underestimated.
Together with other alien races, the picture of the world of immortal cultivation finally unfolded bit by bit before his eyes.
"One soul-guiding incense stick in exchange for rock soul grass, spiritual milk older than three thousand years, high-level defensive talismans or other treasures are all fine!"
It was a middle-aged man's turn to come forward. He took out a large incense stick as thick as a thumb and began to speak.
Chen Lin looked thoughtful. He seemed to have seen the name of this soul-guiding incense somewhere before, but he couldn't remember it clearly and he didn't know if he could use it.
After thinking for a while, he whispered to a cultivator beside him, "Does this Taoist friend know the function of the soul-guiding incense?"
The person being asked was a young man. He glanced at Chen Lin in surprise and whispered, "Fellow Daoist, you are not from our bloodline family, right? You don't even know about the Helian family's soul-guiding incense?"
Chen Lin immediately replied: "Daoyou is right. I came here with my friends to see the world. What does this soul-guiding incense have to say?"
The other party did not investigate Chen Lin's background. Although their bloodline families were united, they were not xenophobic. It was nothing to invite outside monks, as this would increase the resources of the exchange meeting.
He said casually, "It doesn't have much use. It can just attract ghosts within a certain range and capture them. If you are not interested in soul magic or practicing soul-related skills, it won't be of much use."
Chen Lin showed a look of realization, then clasped his fists to express his gratitude.
At this time, some monks had already started discussing the transaction with the middle-aged man, so Chen Lin did not go over.
He definitely needs this soul-guiding incense, but he doesn't have what the other party is talking about, so he can only wait a while. However, this kind of incense is refined, and there will not be only this one. If you miss it, you can find the seller to negotiate.
Soon, those who wanted to trade all left, as it seemed that none of them could offer anything that would satisfy the other party.
Chen Lin finally stood up, took out a pill bottle, walked up to the other party, and said, "Fellow Daoist, are you satisfied with this?"
The middle-aged man took the pill bottle, opened it and took a look. He frowned slightly and hesitated for a moment before saying, "Okay, although I'm not very satisfied, there is really nothing more suitable than what you brought out. Let's trade!"
After saying that, he handed the soul-guiding incense to Chen Lin.
Chen Lin put the things away, took out a communication talisman, and said, "Fellow Daoist Helian, right? I need some more of this incense. If you have it in stock, you can contact me at any time. I am a master of alchemy. Please let me know what elixir you need."
The middle-aged man glanced at Chen Lin, nodded, and put away the communication talisman.
Regardless of whether he will use the soul-calling incense in the future, the goodwill shown by an alchemy master must still be accepted.
Chen Lin returned to his seat in a good mood.
Although hunting monsters at sea is convenient, he still feels that the speed of collecting monster souls is too slow, so he has always planned to go to Wanhun Ridge to collect ghost souls, but that place is extremely dangerous. If he searches blindly, he may easily encounter ghosts that are too powerful to resist, so he has not dared to set off.
I think that with this soul-guiding incense, I can use the power of the formation to set an ambush in a certain place and wait for the enemy to come to me. This way, the danger will be much smaller.
To Chen Lin's surprise, after the exchange had gone on for a while, another treasure he needed appeared. It was exactly the kind of fuel that could be used to extract the essence of the soul, and he obtained it at a considerable price.
After all the children of noble families had presented their treasures, it was the turn of some foreign monks who were invited like him, but they did not gain anything.
After waiting until the end, Chen Lin hesitated for a moment, and finally took out a bottle of medicine and said, "Du Yuan Dan, a superior medicine for improving cultivation in the Jindan stage. Ten pills in a bottle, in exchange for Jindan stage thunder attribute exercises, or related information."
I didn't have any hope at first, but I didn't expect that as soon as I finished speaking, more than a dozen monks stood up together.
"I, I know!"
"I raised my hand first. Me, me, me!"
"I was the first one to stand up. What are you doing?"
A group of Jindan-stage young men from aristocratic families were arguing with each other, leaving Chen Lin confused.
Could it be that thunder-attributed skills are already commonplace among these noble families, with everyone owning one
He felt something was wrong and couldn't help but look at Venus Yun on the stage for help.
Jin Xingyun had a constipated look on his face and glanced at the clone of Lord Qing next to him, looking helpless.
"Well, a bunch of Jindan monks are fighting over something!"
When Lord Qing's voice sounded, the monks who had stood up stopped making noise.
At this time, Lord Qing looked at Chen Lin and said, "Although you are not from a bloodline family, you still have to abide by the rules of the exchange meeting. Since you have already put forward the transaction requirements, you cannot regret it as long as someone meets the requirements. However, in order to avoid conflicts, you can choose one of the people who just stood up to trade with!"
Upon hearing this, Chen Lin bowed and said, "Thank you, Master Qing."
Now that things had come to this, even if he knew there was a problem, there was no room for regret. Chen Lin could only look around and, amid the expectant gazes of the crowd, he pointed to a man in a blue robe who looked somewhat honest.
"Thank you for the gift of the pill, fellow Taoist!"
The blue-robed man who was called immediately smiled and stepped forward to take the pill.
Then he said, "I am not taking advantage of you, but I have to take what others have. As for the thunder attribute technique you need, I don't have it. Not only do I not have it, but the person who wanted to trade just now also doesn't have it. I can only provide a piece of information."
Chen Lin had never thought that a bottle of Du Yuan Dan could be exchanged for a thunder attribute technique. That was unrealistic. He said, "Since all the Taoist friends here know about this, it is naturally not a secret. Please just speak out!"
The well-known secret is not a secret, and there is definitely no way to get it, so he is mentally prepared.
"Yes." The blue-robed man nodded. "It is indeed not a secret. Among our bloodline families there is a Lei family, who are the best at thunder and lightning magic. However, the inheritance has long been cut off. However, there is a relic that has been passed down. It is somewhere deep in the Wuding Sea. There is a stele there. It is said that one can comprehend the Lei family's thunder-related skills inheritance on it. There are not only those in the Jindan stage, but also those from the Qi training stage to the Shenhua stage."
As he spoke, he took out a blank jade slip, left some information in it, and handed it to Chen Lin, saying, "This is the approximate location of the ruins. You'll find it when you get there. For some reason, a thunderstorm vortex has formed there in the past hundred years. Its power is countless times that of ordinary thunderstorms on the Wuding Sea. Even a True Lord in the late Nascent Soul stage cannot get involved. Daoist friend, you'd better think carefully if you want to go there."
"More Taoist friends, please give me some reminders!"
Chen Lin took the jade slip and put it away without even looking at it.
There are so many elites from bloodline families, and even places that cannot be explored by cultivators in the late Nascent Soul stage. He is not arrogant enough to be different, so he just has to take this loss.
We can only blame him for not being rigorous in his work and for the loopholes in the conditions he stated. We cannot blame others.
Having obtained a bottle of valuable medicine for free, the man in blue robe returned to his seat happily.
Chen Lin also walked back expressionlessly. Although a bottle of pills would not cause any serious harm to him, he was still upset to lose it.
At this time, Lord Qing spoke again. He glanced at everyone and said, "Life is like a game of chess. No one can predict the fate of a person. The catastrophe is coming. It is also a chance for you to come to the Hunyuan Conference this time. Don't hide any tricks and good things you have. Take them out at the auction tomorrow to exchange for treasures that can increase your cultivation and strength. If a person dies, no matter how many good things he leaves behind, it will be useless. Okay, let's go!"
Following the other party's order, everyone began to leave one after another. Chen Lin also left and found a secluded place outside. While waiting for Jin Xingyun, he checked the jade slip he got from the blue-robed man.
Although I have decided not to explore, it doesn’t hurt to get to know the location.
The jade slip only recorded a rough sea map, and its location was actually in the far south of the Wuding Sea, almost reaching the legendary Falling Star Continent!
He couldn't help but shake his head. Not to mention the thunderstorm vortex at the ruins, even this place was impossible for him to get through with his current abilities.
"Why, are you still worried about your bottle of pills?"
Venus Cloud's voice sounded, with a hint of ridicule.
Chen Lin stood up hurriedly and said, "Brother Jin, you are joking. I am not that distressed about a bottle of pills. I am just worried about the scarcity of thunder-attributed skills. I cannot find the main skills, so I am a little anxious."
Jin Xingyun showed a helpless attitude and said: "I can't help you with this. I haven't come across any thunder-attributed skills. Let's wait and see if there are any at the auction tomorrow."
"It's the only way."
Chen Lin sighed, somewhat disillusioned.
Then, he suddenly remembered something and said, "Brother Jin, I just heard that Lord Qing talk about the great catastrophe. Do you have any inside information? What kind of catastrophe is it? Do the major forces have any way to deal with it?"
Jin Xingyun had expected Chen Lin to ask this, and his expression became serious.
"I don't know the specific situation, but this is the result of a joint calculation by the mighty of each race, so it must be correct. It is estimated that there will be signs within a few decades, and then we will know what it is. All we can do is to improve our strength as quickly as possible."
The other party didn't seem to know much, so Chen Lin didn't ask any more questions. Instead, he suddenly pointed upwards and whispered, "Are those beings just going to ignore this catastrophe for the entire cultivation world?"
