Tianji Star, Tianji Market.
In a secret room, Han Changming sat cross-legged on a cushion, his eyes fixed on the Lihuo Cauldron in front of him.
A golden flame engulfed the Lihuo Ding, and a strange fragrance wafted out from the cauldron.
After a while, Han Changming changed his magic spell, shook his sleeves, and the golden flame disappeared.
He stood up, chanted a spell, and the lid of the tripod flew up and landed on the ground.
He looked into the Lihuo Cauldron and saw four silver-white pills. Each pill had twelve dan patterns on its surface. They were all top-grade pills.
“Success!”
Han Changming breathed a sigh of relief. As far as he knew, taking one Seven-Star Jade Spirit Pill had the same effect as taking two. It did not mean that the more Seven-Star Jade Spirit Pills a cultivator took, the greater the chance of cultivating into a acquired spiritual body.
He took out a green jade box, put away three Seven-Star Jade Spirit Pills, and put the fourth Seven-Star Jade Spirit Pill into a green porcelain bottle.
He took out a star-moon disk that glowed with yellow light, and entered a spell. Chen Zun's voice rang out, "Fellow Daoist Han, is the Seven-Star Jade Spirit Pill ready?"
"Well, Fellow Daoist Chen, come here!"
Han Changming said.
"Okay, I'll be right there."
Chen Zun's voice was filled with joy and he agreed.
Han Changming put away the communication disk, walked out, and sat down in the stone pavilion.
Not long after, Chen Zun came over.
Han Changming took out a green porcelain bottle and handed it to Chen Zun.
Chen Zun took the porcelain bottle and poured out a silver-white pill with bright color and emitting a strange fragrance.
"Yes, it is indeed a top-grade Seven-Star Jade Spirit Pill. Haha, Fellow Daoist Han, you are still amazing."
Chen Zun said excitedly, took out a red jade box and a red jade slip, handed them to Han Changming, and said: "Fellow Daoist Han, this is a 50,000-year-old Seven Flame Ganoderma, and there is also a way to cultivate it into an acquired spiritual body. Please don't despise it."
Han Changming's alchemy skills are so high, and it is possible that we will ask Han Changming to help with alchemy in the future, so naturally we have to pay him enough.
Han Changming did not refuse and accepted it.
"By the way, I heard that the Tianyue Merchant Alliance is planning to hold an auction. Does Fellow Daoist Chen know about this?"
Han Changming asked casually.
"I've heard about it a long time ago. I heard that Senior Chen from the Tianyue Merchant Alliance will also show up. I wonder if other Mahayana cultivators from the Tianji Star Region will show up."
Chen Zun's face was solemn when he finished speaking.
The Mahayana cultivators are like dragons that are hard to find. It would be great if I could meet a Mahayana cultivator once.
"Senior Chen? But is he the Heavenly Array Master?"
Han Changming said.
Tianyue Business Alliance is a well-known large business alliance. Some of its top leaders are well-known, and Tianzhen Zhenren is one of them.
Tianzhen Zhenren is proficient in the art of formations and is good at setting up and breaking formations.
"That's right. I heard that Master Tianzhen is also involved in strengthening a seal of the demon clan."
Chen Zun said.
"Demon Seal?"
Han Changming was slightly stunned.
"I heard that there is a seal somewhere in the sky of Tianyin Star Region, which sealed the ancient demons. Later, for some reason, the seal loosened and was discovered by the combined cultivators. They opened the seal and many demon insects escaped. These demon insects killed many cultivators. It was not easy to get rid of them. Tianzhen Zhenren personally took action to strengthen the seal and sent experts to guard it."
Chen Zun said.
"These ancient seals should always be guarded, otherwise it will be troublesome if something terrible is released."
Han Changming said.
Chen Zun nodded and said, "That's what I said. If the power of the master guarding the ancient seal declines or is destroyed, there will naturally be no one to guard it. In addition, in order to keep it secret, not many people know about the ancient seal. Once the person knows about it dies, no one will know where the ancient seal is. Over time, the restriction will loosen, and some cultivators will think it is an ancient cultivator's cave. When the restriction is opened, the things in the seal will naturally be released."
After chatting for half an hour, Chen Zun said goodbye and left.
Early the next morning, Han Changming and his wife and two others left Tianji Market and rushed to Xuantian Star.
······
The Tianlei Mountains are located in the central part of Tianlei Star, stretching for tens of millions of miles. This is the ancestral land of the Sun family.
The Sun family has a long heritage and is full of masters, including several combined cultivators.
In the middle of the mountain range, you can see a large number of collapsed buildings and corpses, flames shooting into the sky, and a large number of ghost shadows.
With a loud bang, a huge ball of golden light appeared in the sky, very conspicuous.
A tall old man in a golden robe flew out from the golden light and flew towards the distance at an extremely fast speed.
His right leg was missing and his body was covered in blood.
"If you want to leave, stay with me."
A cold male voice came from the golden light. As soon as the words fell, a ghost claw with flashing black light appeared and slapped the protective aura of the old man in the golden robe.
With a muffled sound, the protective aura of the old man in the golden robe dimmed and he flew backwards.
The golden light dissipated, revealing Lin Xuan's figure. There were many ghost shadows on his body, and he exuded a cold aura.
"The remnants of the demon clan!"
The old man in the golden robe exclaimed, his tone somewhat weak.
"Since you have recognized me, I will send you on your way."
Lin Xuan's face turned cold, and he shook his right hand. A black light flew out and went straight towards the old man in the golden robe.
The old man in golden robe was horrified and was about to avoid it when a shrill ghost cry sounded and spread over a hundred thousand miles.
The old man in the golden robe felt dizzy, his body was limp and he had no strength.
When he recovered, a long sword with a flashing black light was already in front of him. A hideous ghost face was engraved on the handle, and there was a demonic aura entwined in it.
"Magic weapon!"
The old man in golden robe said in surprise.
The black long sword hit his protective aura, and his protective aura was instantly shattered. The whole person was cut in half by the black long sword, and even his Nascent Soul was unable to escape.
Lin Xuan put away the black sword and flew into a huge tower shining with golden light. This was the Sun family's scripture library.
Half a minute later, Lin Xuan flew out, looking excited.
"Somewhere in the starry sky of the Tianji Star Region, there is actually a corpse of a Saint Ancestor sealed. Haha, if I take away the corpse of the Saint Ancestor, I will be even stronger."
Lin Xuan said excitedly that he is currently in the late stage of fusion.
Over the years, he has been searching for seals left by demons or places with abundant demonic energy to collect resources for cultivation.
He plundered the place, took away important resources, and set fire to it. A few days later, when the Sun family monks rushed back, they saw only ruins.
The spread of the news of the Sun family's destruction caused panic among many forces. They either stepped up their vigilance or closed the star domain teleportation array, preparing for battle.
······
In a vast and boundless starry sky, a star ship with flashing yellow light quickly passed through the starry sky, with Han Changming, Ye Xue and Ye Xin standing on it.
They originally wanted to take the star domain teleportation array to Xuantian Star, but for some reason, when they passed by a certain immortal cultivation star, the only star domain teleportation array was closed, so they could only use the star boat to travel.
Han Changming's eyes lit up with dazzling golden light as he looked into the distance.
"Gathering star beasts!"
Han Changming frowned.
"Let's find a place to hide! There's no need to pay attention to them. It's more important to get on with the journey."
Ye Xue suggested.
Han Changming nodded and shook his sleeves. A flag with flashing yellow light flew out. He cast a spell and the yellow flag spun around, and a large cloud of yellow mist emerged, covering the three of them.
After a while, the yellow mist dissipated and the three of them disappeared.
After a cup of tea, a large piece of golden light flew towards them. It turned out to be a group of golden star beasts that looked like pigeons. There were more than 100,000 of them, and their sharp claws flashed with cold light.
They did not notice Han Changming and the other two and flew past.
Less than half an hour later, a ball of yellow light lit up, revealing the figures of Han Changming and other two.
"Fortunately, we didn't encounter a star beast with a keen sense of smell, otherwise we would be in trouble."
Ye Xin said with some relief.
Han Changming nodded, made a gesture of magic, and the yellow flying boat flew forward and disappeared into the starry sky.
······
Xuantian Star, Xuantian Market.
The streets were crowded with people and the noise of traffic.
Han Lin strolled along the street, looking around.
He had already arrived at Xuantian Market, rented a small courtyard, inquired about the finale auction items, and collected resources for cultivating immortals.
He seemed to have sensed something, and took out a magic disk that was glowing with green light. He entered a spell, a look of joy appeared on his face, and he quickened his pace.
Not long after, he appeared at a fork in the road where monks were coming and going.
Han Changming, Ye Xue and Ye Xin were walking towards them. They had plenty of time, so they visited many immortal cultivation planets, collected immortal cultivation resources, made elixirs, refined weapons, made talismans, set up formations, brewed wine, etc.
"You're finally here."
Han Lin said.
"Where's Wenlong? Hasn't he arrived yet?"
Han Changming asked casually.
"He has arrived and is attending the gathering of the combined monks."
Han Lin explained.
Han Changming nodded. There were spiritual objects that could help one reach the Mahayana stage. Many high-level cultivators came to participate in this auction, so it would be easy to exchange for what they needed.
Led by Han Lin, they strolled around the market town, looking around.
Xuantian Market is similar to other markets in the Tianji Star Domain. There are more weapon shops and puppet shops, but fewer medicine shops.
More than half an hour later, they arrived at a vast bluestone square where there were many small stalls. The stall owners were at least in the Spirit Transformation Stage and at most in the Fusion Stage.
The items on the stalls are varied and of great variety.
"Friend Han, Madam Han, long time no see."
A familiar male voice sounded.
Han Changming looked in the direction of the sound and saw Long Dahai walking towards him.
Long Dahai has already entered the fusion stage, but it is only the initial stage of fusion.
"Friend Long, long time no see."
Han Changming was stunned at first, but he quickly reacted and was overjoyed.
He never expected to meet Long Dahai here. He wondered if Long Dahai had got anything good.
"Friend Long, I haven't seen you for many years. You have entered the Fusion Stage. Congratulations!"
Ye Xin opened her mouth to congratulate.
"I was lucky enough to enter the fusion stage. I am far inferior to you."
Long Dahai's face was full of envy.
"Friend Long, this is not the place to talk. How about we talk somewhere else?"
Han Changming said with a smile.
Long Dahai nodded and agreed.
The five people left the bluestone square, came to a teahouse, and asked for a private room.
After a few cups of tea, they started chatting.
Long Dahai took out an exquisite golden jade box, handed it to Han Changming, and said, "Friend Han, I got some star sand. If you like it, take it!"
"Star sand!"
Han Changming was a little surprised. They came here from the Chiyang Star Region and killed many star beasts along the way, so they didn't get much star sand.
He opened the jade box, which contained star sand.
"Friend Long, I won't accept the reward without merit. What do you want?"
Han Changming asked.
"Is there any top-grade elixir that can improve your magic power?"
Long Dahai's face was full of anticipation.
Han Changming smiled and nodded. Ye Xin understood what he meant and took out a golden porcelain bottle, handed it to Long Dahai, and said, "This is the Golden Oak Pill. It has a very good effect when taken by the fusion cultivators. We also take this pill."
"Golden Oak Pill!"
Long Dahai took the porcelain bottle, uncorked it, and poured out ten golden pills. Each pill had twelve dan patterns on its surface.
"So many! Fellow Daoist Han, this is too valuable!"
Long Dahai said in surprise that star sand was indeed precious, but it was still far inferior to a bottle of golden oak pill that could improve magical powers.
"I would like to ask Fellow Daoist Long to help me keep an eye out for the three materials: Taiyi Leiyu, Tianlei Shenjing, and Qianyuan Yujing. If you have any news, you can contact us at any time. If you find these three things, I will definitely not treat Fellow Daoist Long unfairly."
Han Changming said.
These three things are all rare earth-attributed materials. After he refines them, he will have the opportunity to cultivate into an acquired spiritual body.
Long Dahai nodded and said, "No problem, I'll keep an eye out for you. I heard that there will be a spiritual object that can impact the Mahayana period in this auction. Fellow Daoist Han must have come here for this object!"
"That's right. Fellow Daoist Long, how can you get a spiritual object that can help you reach the Mahayana stage?"
Han Changming asked humbly.
“I heard that the Tianyue Business Alliance wants to take this opportunity to collect resources for cultivating immortals. If Fellow Daoist Han has something particularly precious, such as the Godly Milk of Creation, materials for refining the Mysterious Heavenly Treasure, Mysterious Heavenly Objects, etc., he can also obtain spiritual objects to impact the Mahayana stage.”
Long Dahai said.
"Fellow Daoist Long, you are joking. These things are all rare. Even if there is the Fortune Divine Milk, you definitely can't exchange them for a single drop of it. You need a lot of it. Who can come up with so much Fortune Divine Milk? Not to mention the Xuantian items and the things used to refine Xuantian treasures."
Han Changming chuckled.
"Yes! The Tianyue Merchant Alliance has made a good plan."
Ye Xue echoed.
"That being said, the Tianyue Merchant Alliance has a panacea for reaching the Mahayana stage. If you have these things, you will definitely want to exchange them."
Long Dahai said.
Han Changming nodded, and after chatting for a cup of tea, Long Dahai said goodbye and left.
When they walked out of the teahouse, it was getting dark. Merchants took out their lighting tools and the whole market was brightly lit.
Han Lin brought them to the door of a three-story green attic. This street was sparsely populated and was a residential area.
Han Changming walked into a secret room and released the stone man. The stone man patted his chest with his right palm and looked at Han Changming eagerly.
"You want star sand?"
Han Changming said, when he got the star sand before, he didn’t see the stone man asking for it. Could it be that its realm was too low before
The stone man didn't understand Han Changming's words and looked at Han Changming eagerly.
Han Changming took out the golden jade box and pushed it in front of the stone man.
A dazzling yellow light emerged from the stone man's right palm, and star sand rushed towards its palm and slowly merged into its body.
As long as it is beneficial to the stone man, Han Changming is willing to give it a box of star sand.
