Qianling Star, Golden Maple Valley.
Ever since the news spread that the Han family and the Cao family had joined forces to hold an auction, a large number of cultivators had rushed to Golden Maple Valley from all over the world, most of whom were businessmen.
It is hard to find a shop in Jinfeng Valley now. It is difficult to rent one and you need connections.
The Han family and the Cao family collected immortal cultivation resources from various places and transported them to the Golden Maple Valley. This was also a test of the Han family's comprehensive capabilities.
The Han family's clansmen on various immortal cultivation planets collect resources and then transport them to the Golden Maple Valley. This is also a test for the Han family members. If it is wartime, they can also quickly reach their destination.
A secluded manor with pavilions, towers, and waterside corridors.
Han Changming, Cao Tianfeng and a graceful woman in purple skirt were sitting in a green stone pavilion. The woman in purple skirt was Xu Yusu, the ancestor of the Xu family, who had reached the late stage of Refining Void.
Over the years, the Xu family has frequently invited Han Benqi to participate in various activities held by the Xu family, including birthday parties, auctions, etc.
"Friend Han, I heard that your two sons are very handsome. I haven't met them yet. Is it convenient for me to meet them?"
Xu Yusu said with a smile.
She wanted to marry her children to Han Changming's. She looked down on ordinary members of the Han family. Han Benqi and Han Benlin were Han Changming's sons. They had good qualifications, especially Han Benqi. He was a fifth-rank alchemist. With Han Changming's guidance, it was only a matter of time before Han Benqi could refine top-grade elixirs.
Han Benfu is also a fifth-rank alchemist. She is Han Changming's eldest daughter and will not marry out. Therefore, Xu Yusu has no intention of marrying Han Benfu.
"Ben Lin is not at Qianling Star, Ben Qi is at Jinfeng Valley. I will ask him to come over to visit Madam Xu later."
Han Changming said politely that the Xu family was quite powerful and that a marriage with the Xu family would be beneficial to both families.
Han Changming doesn't need to use his son and daughter to arrange marriage. With his alchemy skills, it is no problem for him to reject the Xu family. If Han Benqi likes the female cultivators of the Xu family, that doesn't matter.
The marriage does not have to be with Han Benqi. Han Changming has many descendants, so we can just pick one with better qualifications for the marriage.
"Okay, it's settled then."
Xu Yusu agreed.
Cao Tianfeng took out a golden magic disk, entered a magic formula, and said with a smile: "Fellow Daoist Han, Fellow Daoist Yuwen, Fellow Daoist Li, Madam Sun and others have arrived at the market."
"Please invite them over to have a chat! Let's get to know each other."
Han Changming suggested that he had been active on Xuanyang Star before and did not have many acquaintances on Qianling Star, nor did he know many of the Void Refining cultivators on Qianling Star.
Cao Tianfeng nodded, entered a spell, and ordered: "Yundong, invite Daoist Yuwen and the others over. Daoist Han and Madam Xu are here."
"Yes, ancestor."
Cao Yundong's voice came from the golden Dharma disk.
After putting away the golden magic plate, Cao Tianfeng, Han Changming and Xu Yusu started chatting, and the topic of their conversation was True Lord Qianling.
"Madam Xu, I heard that your Xu family's spiritual beast was brought out from Qianling Cave Heaven, and it has great magical powers."
Han Changming asked casually.
Due to the limited cultivation resources in the outer sea, the Han family's guardian spiritual bird has passed away, and there is currently no spiritual beast to protect the family.
If we could capture a powerful monster from Qianling Cave, it would be nice to use it as a guardian beast for the clan.
"That's right. Every ten thousand years or so, the restrictions on Qianling Cave Heaven will loosen up a lot. With the Qianling Order, you can enter Qianling Cave Heaven to search for treasures. There are many rare and exotic animals in it. If you calculate the time, after a hundred years or so, Qianling Cave Heaven will open again."
When Xu Yusu finished speaking, a look of longing appeared on her face.
The ancestor of the Xu family entered Qianling Cave Heaven to search for treasures, obtained a large amount of resources for cultivating immortals, and established the Xu family. Every time Qianling Cave Heaven opens, the Xu family will send clansmen in to search for treasures.
"Mrs. Xu, I heard that you are competing with the Heavenly Beast Sect for a secret realm recently?"
Cao Tianfeng said with a smile.
The Tianshou Sect is an old force on Qianling Star and has many experts.
There is also a Heavenly Beast Sect on Xuanyang Star, but it has the same name. The Heavenly Beast Sect on Xuanyang Star has already declined, and there is not even a single Spiritual Transformation cultivator. On the other hand, the Heavenly Beast Sect on Qianling Star has many masters, and two Void Refining cultivators have emerged in recent years.
"Well, Fellow Daoist Cao is also interested?"
Xu Yusu said with a smile.
"No, I'm just asking casually."
Cao Tianfeng shook his head. The Cao family only had one Void Refining cultivator, and they could not get involved in the fight between the two major forces.
"I heard that the Heavenly Beast Sect has a Frost Moon Ruler, which ranks 781st on the Star Domain Divine Weapon List. It is quite powerful. If a fight breaks out, it will be hard for your Xu family to gain a big advantage!"
Han Changming said casually.
The Han family has been collecting intelligence on various forces. Han Changming has a certain understanding of the top forces on each immortal cultivation star, including their leaders, treasures, and some magical powers.
"Our Xu family has been able to pass on its legacy for so long, so naturally we have something to rely on. Fellow Daoist Han and Fellow Daoist Cao, just rest assured."
Xu Yusu was full of confidence and looked like he had everything planned out.
Han Changming and Cao Tianfeng just said it casually. They were not interested in the fight between the Tianshou Sect and the Xu family. It was common for major forces to fight for resources.
A light sound of footsteps was heard from outside, and Cao Yundong walked in with two men and one woman.
An old man in a red robe with a ruddy complexion, round face and small eyes, a goatee and a strong aura of murderous intent emanating from him.
Yuwen Ming, the ancestor of the Yuwen family, has reached the late stage of Lianxu cultivation.
An old man in a green robe with a slightly hunchback stood on Yuwen Ming's left hand side. The old man had thin cheeks, narrow eyes, and his aura was much stronger than Han Changming's.
Qingyuan Sanren, he is a casual cultivator, raising a fifth-level top-quality green ape.
"I have heard of Daoist Han's great name for a long time, and I finally get to see Daoist Han in person."
A woman in a black dress with gorgeous features said with a smile, her eyes falling on Han Changming.
The woman in the black dress has a hot body and her aura is even stronger than Han Changming's.
Madam Black Butterfly was born in the Tiandie Sect, which is an immortal cultivation sect that raises a large number of spiritual butterflies. All of its disciples raise spiritual butterflies.
"My name is Han Changming. Nice to meet you, Daoist Fellow Yuwen, Daoist Fellow Li, and Madam Sun."
Han Changming stood up, clasped his hands together, and introduced himself.
Yu Wenming and the other two gave their names and introduced themselves one after another.
Cao Tianfeng invited them to sit down and drink tea and chat together.
They all raised spiritual beasts and insects, and exchanged experiences in expelling insects and controlling beasts with each other. Cao Yundong tactfully withdrew.
"Friend Han, what were you talking about just now?"
Yu Wenming said casually.
"We are talking about Qianling Cave Heaven. Fellow Daoist Yuwen, when Qianling Cave Heaven opens, you will also send people in to search for treasures!"
Cao Tianfeng said with a smile.
"Of course. Fellow Daoist Han and Fellow Daoist Cao, are you interested in sending someone in?"
Yuwen Ming said with a smile.
Yuwen Yan has reported to him that Han Benqi helped send Li Nianlong and his sister away. The Yuwen family is not sure about the relationship between Han Benqi and Li Nianlong and his sister.
It's hard to say whether Han Benqi was just being kind or Li Nianlong and his sister were members of the Han family.
If it were any other force, Yuwen Ming would not let it go. Facing Han Changming, Yuwen Ming pretended not to know for the time being. Putting aside Han Changming's alchemy level, the Zhao family was not someone the Yuwen family could afford to provoke.
Yu Wenming would not fight to the death with Han Changming just for two clansmen in the God Transformation Stage.
The older generation is not allowed to personally interfere in the fights between the younger generation. This is an unwritten rule in the Chiyang Star Domain. The younger generation can fight however they want, but the older generation cannot personally take action against the younger generation.
"Fellow Daoist Han and I are both interested in this, but we don't have Thousand Spirit Orders. This time we held the auction, firstly to meet with fellow Daoists, and secondly, in the hope of obtaining some Thousand Spirit Orders."
Cao Tianfeng said straight to the point that there was nothing to hide. The Cao family members had already announced that they would buy the Qianling Order at a high price.
Otherwise, cultivators who have Thousand Spirit Orders may not necessarily take them out for exchange.
"Thousand Spirit Orders."
Qingyuan Sanren's expression changed, and he had a few Thousand Spirit Orders in his hand.
"I heard that the last time Qianling Cave Heaven opened, many sixth-level monsters appeared, causing heavy casualties."
The Black Butterfly Fairy said solemnly.
Due to restrictions, the Void Refining cultivators are unable to enter the Thousand Spirit Cave Heaven to search for treasures, and can only send the Spirit Transformation cultivators to enter the Thousand Spirit Cave Heaven to search for treasures. However, there are sixth-order monsters in the Thousand Spirit Cave Heaven, and the Spirit Transformation cultivators are no match for the sixth-order monsters.
Fortunately, there are restrictions, and the monsters in Qianling Cave Heaven cannot advance to the seventh level, and can only reach the sixth level at most. Even so, every time the Qianling Cave Heaven opens, many gods-transforming cultivators will die in the Qianling Cave Heaven.
Even if there are sixth-order monsters, every time the Thousand Spirit Cave Heaven opens, major forces will still send gods to enter the Thousand Spirit Cave Heaven to search for treasures. It only opens once every ten thousand years, so it would be nice to pick a batch of ten thousand year old spiritual medicines.
"Why don't we just prepare some more treasures? If we encounter a level 6 monster, we can only blame our bad luck. We have come this far, and none of us has not taken risks before, right?"
Yuwen Ming said indifferently.
Han Changming nodded and said, "Fellow Daoist Yuwen is right. Even if the Thousand Spirits Cave is opened, we can send the younger generation in to search for treasures. It will depend on whether they are strong enough to survive."
After chatting for more than an hour, Yuwen Ming suggested: "We are lucky to meet here today. Why don't we take out our things to exchange! Let's share what we have."
Madam Black Butterfly agreed wholeheartedly. They came to Golden Maple Valley in the hope of exchanging top-grade elixirs with Han Changming, even if it was just one pill!
Han Changming had no objection and agreed.
As the host, Cao Tianfeng was the first to take out things for exchange. He took out more than a dozen materials, mostly spiritual medicines. The most precious ones were two thousand-year-old golden core grasses and two pieces of Tianyue Stone. Tianyue Stone was a sixth-grade refining material.
Cao Tianfeng wanted to exchange it for the demon pill of a sixth-level fire crow. It would be beneficial for the spirit beast to advance if it devoured the demon pills of its own higher-level counterparts.
Unfortunately, he failed to exchange for the sixth-level demon pill, and the two thousand-year-old golden core grasses were exchanged by Xu Yusu.
After Cao Tianfeng finished the exchange, he sat down, and the cultivators looked at Han Changming.
Han Changming stood up and took out dozens of materials, including elixirs, monster materials, ores, spiritual medicines, etc.
"Exchange for a sixth-level demon pill. The best ones are the ones from poisonous insects or lightning-attributed spirit insects."
Han Changming said in a deep voice that the Purple Crystal Flying Scorpion had advanced to the fifth-grade upper level and was only one step away from the sixth level.
If it can advance to the sixth level, it will definitely be a great help.
"Fellow Daoist Han, is this a top-grade elixir?"
Qingyuan Sanren pointed at a few porcelain bottles and asked, his face full of anticipation.
"No, it's just top-grade elixirs. We also have top-grade elixirs. If you want to exchange for top-grade elixirs, you have to bring out good things, such as Dharma materials."
Han Changming said in a deep voice.
Top-grade elixirs are extremely precious and can be directly exchanged for Dharma materials.
"How about I exchange this piece of Heavenly Evil Jade for a top-grade healing elixir?"
Qingyuan Sanren took out an exquisite black jade box, handed it to Han Changming, and said in a voice transmission.
Tiansha Jade is a Dharma material, suitable for cultivators who practice Shaqi Kungfu to condense their Dharma and thus improve their strength.
"Heavenly Evil Jade!"
Han Changming took the black jade box calmly, opened it and saw a piece of black jade inside, which was cold to the touch.
Han Debiao has already entered the Void Refinement Stage, and this piece of Tiansha Jade can help him condense his Dharma image.
Han Changming took out a blood-colored jade box and said in a voice transmission: "This is a top-grade healing elixir, just a piece of Tiansha jade."
Dharma materials also have different levels of quality. Practitioners from small families like Han Changming and Han Debiao cannot afford the rare Dharma materials.
Generally speaking, the Dharma images must be condensed with the same material. Otherwise, if various materials are mixed together, it will look like a hodgepodge, except for cultivators with five spiritual roots.
It is not difficult for Han Changming to get a rare Dharma material, but it is very difficult to get it all the time.
Some geniuses are too ambitious and insist on using rare Dharma materials to condense their Dharma images. They waste a lot of time searching for Dharma materials, delay their own cultivation, and eventually die in a great calamity.
"Add another Thousand Spirit Order, that should be enough!"
Qing Yuan San Ren said via voice transmission.
"Only one? If I put it up for auction, I'll get more."
Han Changming bargained.
Scarcity makes things valuable. It is not easy for a casual cultivator to get a top-grade elixir.
"I don't have that many Thousand Spirit Orders, so I'll keep them for later use. How about this! I'll give you a sixth-level human-faced scorpion demon pill. That should be enough, right?"
Qingyuan Sanren's tone was sincere.
Han Changming thought about it and agreed.
The two exchanged smoothly, and the whole process was communicated through voice transmission. Others did not know the specific content of their conversation, nor did they know what exactly they exchanged.
Yuwen Ming and others also wanted to exchange for top-grade elixirs, but what they took out was not to Han Changming's liking. Yuwen Ming, Madam Black Butterfly and Xu Yusu all took out Dharma materials, but they were not compatible with the properties of Han Changming and Han Debiao's skills, so Han Changming did not exchange them.
There were no top-grade elixirs, so the high-grade elixirs that Han Changming had taken out were also exchanged. The elixirs made from the bark of the human shadow tree, which Han Changming refined, must be of good quality and were still very popular.
Han Changming finished the exchange and sat down.
Yuwen Ming and others stood up one after another and took out things to exchange. There were a lot of good things, but they wanted to exchange for Dharma materials or top-grade elixirs. Han Changming felt that he was at a disadvantage, so he did not exchange with them.
After half an hour, the exchange was over, they chatted for a while, and then went back home.
After seeing off Cao Tianfeng and the others, Han Changming blew a whistle, and a purple crystal flying scorpion flew from a distance and landed in front of Han Changming.
During the trip to Jiuyang Mountain, Han Changming killed a group of Black Flame Centipedes, including a sixth-order Black Flame Centipede. After the Amethyst Flying Scorpion devoured their corpses, it successfully advanced to the fifth-order upper grade, and was only one step away from the sixth order.
