Market, auction house.
"A top-grade spiritual medicine, a thousand-year-old Bu Tian Zhi. I won't say any more nonsense! I think you all know the value of this herb better than I do!"
As soon as the tall and thin man finished speaking, a emerald green jade box appeared in his hand.
Then he pretended to glance at the monks, and seeing that everyone's attention was attracted by the thousand-year-old herb he mentioned, he secretly said with joy:
"This thousand-year-old spiritual medicine has only appeared a few times in the past hundred years. Buying it back and refining it into a spiritual pill is definitely the best opportunity for you to break through the realm and improve your magic power. Even if you don't know how to refine the pill, eating it raw can improve your ten years of hard practice. So the base price starts at one thousand spiritual stones!"
After saying the above, the tall and thin man pulled out the lid of the jade box, then stood it up and showed it to the monks.
Suddenly, a strong medicinal fragrance filled the entire hall, making the monks surprised and happy!
What surprised me was that I never expected such a rare treasure to appear at this auction! What made me happy was that if I could buy it back to make medicine, wouldn’t it be as the other party said, stronger than any top-level magic weapon! After all, this is to improve one’s own skills, not to rely on external forces!
Therefore, as soon as the tall and thin man announced the base price, someone immediately couldn't wait to speak!
"Two thousand spirit stones!"
The first monk who spoke up immediately doubled the price of the spiritual herb! Many people who followed behind and wanted to bid were so angry that they cursed in their hearts! But then, some people continued to raise the price.
"Two thousand two hundred spirit stones!"
"Two thousand..."
…
Han Li was covered in a pitch-black cloak. As soon as he took the spirit stone and put it into his storage bag, he immediately left his seat and walked towards the stone exit.
But when he got to the door, he found that the stone door was closed!
He pushed hard twice, but the stone door didn't move at all!
"What does this mean!"
His voice was trembling a little, with a sense of excitement and panic. Han Li felt that his performance was very good.
"Can't we let people go after selling things?"
"Of course not! As soon as the trade fair is over, we will open the gate and let you out, but not now." The man in black guarding the stone gate made a voice like a night owl, with a teasing look in his eyes.
"What? That doesn't make sense. I'm leaving here right now!"
Han Li pretended to be angry and raised his voice a little.
"I'm sorry, but this is indeed the rule of our store. It's just a small measure taken to prevent some unpleasant accidents from happening! Sir, you can't even wait for this little bit of time! Don't worry, as long as you are in the market, our auction house guarantees your personal safety..."
The low, hoarse voice of the man in black sounded again, speaking in an extremely eerie voice.
"snort!"
Han Li snorted coldly and returned to the auction house pretending to be anxious.
As soon as the auction was over, he rushed out of the auction house and then rushed out of the market.
…
"Master, help!"
Han Li rushed to a barren mountain in panic, and behind him, a ray of light suddenly stopped in mid-air and landed not far from Han Li.
A sanctimonious Taoist appeared in sight.
"You... you are the elder of the auction house, what are you going to do? I have already sold the Bu Tian Zhi, why are you still following me?"
"Hand over the location where you got the Bu Tian Zhi, and I will leave you with a whole body."
"I don't know what you are talking about? I only got the Bu Tian Zhi by chance... I will give you half of the Ling Shi, and I only want half... Please, please, spare my life..."
Han Li acted like an emperor, panicking and desperate.
"Hmph, I'll catch you and slowly process you..."
The Taoist grinned grimly, took out a ring-shaped magic weapon, and circled towards Han Li.
"Hmph!" Han Li's face changed immediately, a hint of sneer appeared in his desperate expression. He moved his fingers, and a sword light flew out from his sleeves, colliding with the ring-shaped magic weapon in the air.
"He who kills shall be killed! Devil, give me your life!"
"How arrogant! How dare you, a mere foundation-building kid, speak so arrogantly in front of me..."
"Cage! Forbidden!"
"Who?"
Bang!
Yi Xiaochuan fired a shot at the Taoist who was in the Jindan stage, and a highly effective anesthetic was injected into his thigh. The effect of the drug was enough to paralyze a level five monster.
Seeing the Taoist falling to the ground like mud, two simulated robots immediately stripped him naked and carried his body away.
Han Li excitedly began to touch the equipment with skillful movements.
"Don't fish for now. I need to stay in seclusion for a while. You are no match for a cultivator in the Jindan stage..."
After stuffing the Jindan Taoist's magic weapon into the storage bag, Han Li nodded and said, "I understand, Master. I am also going to retreat and digest my recent gains..."
The real world of cultivation is dark and bloody, with murder and robbery happening all the time. There is no such thing as a heart of Taoism. Cultivation is not the same as practicing Taoism.
On this continent, the five major immortal cultivation schools of Buddhism, Taoism, Confucianism, Demons and Monsters coexisted in the world, and the degree of chaos was far beyond imagination. Things like killing people for treasures and exterminating families were commonplace, and in most places, the evil demons had the upper hand and would kill people to establish their authority at any time, which was full of blood.
Therefore, Otokogawa's live experiment is nothing.
The Taoist in the Jindan stage who was tied to the instrument slowly woke up.
He struggled violently, his nails almost digging into the instrument, but he was powerless. He looked around, then at the instrument that fixed him, and then at the white coat that came over, and he couldn't help but feel a chill in his heart!
The two sides of the instrument that fixed him, right on both sides of the human arms, right where his palms touched, were all covered with scratches!
These marks were not just made, but have been there for a long time.
The marks were obviously caused by human fingernails.
"What do you want to do? Let me go! I am the elder of the Tiansha Sect. If you kill me, I will wipe out your entire clan!"
No one paid any attention to him, and then he started cursing.
Fear reaching its extreme will lead to madness, and cultivators in the Jindan stage are no exception.
Master, the materials are ready! The test subject is in good condition!
"Let's start! I can't wait, cph4, second evolution..."
The instrument light suddenly lit up, and soon something similar to a syringe came out. The medicine inside was glowing with blue light, just like the blue sky.
Cph4 injection completed!
Injection of γ-type debugging agent... The test subject's blood pressure is disordered, increase the amount of sedative injection...
…
The experimental subject has finished absorbing CPH4! Collect data and observe subsequent reactions...
…
"Hahahaha, I have already reached the Nascent Soul stage. This feud is irreconcilable. I will torture you to death! Even if I grind your bones and scatter your ashes, it will not be able to relieve the hatred in my heart..."
Looking at the Taoist who broke through the cage in the observation room, Yi Xiaochuan raised his eyelids. There was a faint deep blue in his eyes, which was deeper and purer than that of this experimental subject who was forcibly promoted to the Nascent Soul stage.
