Chapter 62 Purple Frost, Demonic Cultivator Liao Song
The next day.
The sky was clear and the air was fresh.
On White Pine Mountain.
Lin Li, dressed in a white robe, stood on the welcoming platform at the summit. He sensed the presence of a fellow spiritual cultivator entering the market and heading straight for White Pine Mountain.
In the blink of an eye, a pale purple streak of light appeared on the platform in front of them. A young woman dressed in purple emerged from the light. Her eyes were purplish-red, and she was surrounded by a lingering aura of demonic energy.
She raised her hands, which had long black fingernails, and bowed to Lin Li, saying, "My name is Zishuang, and I live in Ziyun Cave. I have met Fellow Daoist Liuya."
"I met Fellow Daoist Guan a few days ago, and he mentioned your name. I've been quite curious about it and have long wanted to meet you. Now that I see you, you are indeed a man of noble character and extraordinary bearing!"
Zi Shuang said quite enthusiastically.
"Fellow Daoist, you flatter me."
"Fellow Daoist Zishuang, you've arrived early."
"I wonder if you have any spiritual items to auction or exchange at this auction?"
Lin Li inquired according to the rules, and if there was such a thing, he would record it and keep the spiritual object.
"It certainly exists."
"This is a second-tier poison pill that I refined using my natal scorpion venom. If a Foundation Establishment cultivator of the same level gets a bit of it during a battle, it will definitely damage their essence."
"I only ask for a second-grade, low-level earth-elemental elixir."
"Or a second-tier, low-grade earth-elemental medicine would also be acceptable."
With a thought, Zi Shuang took out a black porcelain bottle from her storage bag, presented it to Lin Li, and said...
"it is good."
"It's been written down."
Lin Li took out a blank jade slip and recorded it. Now, the role of host of the auction has fallen to him.
Immediately, Lin Li put the porcelain bottle containing the second-tier poison pill into his storage bag.
It will be brought out at the auction.
"Fellow Daoist Zishuang."
"Do you have any spiritual items like the essence blood of a second-tier spiritual cultivator?"
"I need to fuse several kinds of essence blood to cultivate a certain technique. I don't need too much, just a small amount will do."
Lin Li asked.
A seasoned spiritual practitioner like this, who has already established a foundation, naturally possesses many valuable items.
"There is indeed a substance containing essence and blood."
"I bought it back in the Shadow Gate Market, but I've already used up most of it, leaving only a small portion."
"This is the blood of a second-tier python-dragon."
Upon hearing Lin Li's question, Zi Shuang immediately took out a white jade bottle from her storage bag.
"This item is no longer of much use to me. I can exchange it for ten first-grade earth-elemental spirit pills or spirit herbs of the same grade."
Zi Shuang hesitated for a moment before speaking. This offer was quite favorable. Although most of the python blood in the jade bottle had been used, the remaining python blood was still quite valuable.
"it is good."
"Fellow Daoist, these are ten top-grade first-tier earth-elemental spiritual herbs."
With a thought, Lin Li took out ten earth-type spiritual herbs from his storage bag and placed them in front of him. These herbs were accumulated from his time at Green Ape Mountain.
When Yuan Xiudao left, he didn't take any spiritual medicine with him; he left them all to him.
Now it has finally come in handy.
Zi Shuang waved her hand and collected all the earth-type spiritual herbs, while Lin Li obtained the second-tier python blood as he wished.
However, Lin Li was also quite interested in the bloodline of this Fellow Daoist Zishuang, but it would be too presumptuous to bring it up so rashly, so he could only wait for another opportunity.
After exchanging a few more words, they...
Zishuang then left Baisong Mountain, preparing to purchase some necessities in this market. Generally speaking, a Foundation Establishment cultivator like Zishuang would have several juniors to take care of behind her.
Lin Li extracted a wisp of vital energy from the jade bottle and refined it into his body.
[Inclusion successful]
[Second-tier, low-grade bloodline; One-horned Black-winged Python!]
On the Reincarnation Disc, a black python with a single horn, more than ten feet long, appeared. This giant python also had a huge fleshy wing on its back. It looked ferocious and flew into the projections of the group of second-tier lower-level bloodlines.
...
...
Six days have passed in the blink of an eye.
During this time, Fellow Daoist Guan Che, whom I had met once before at the celebration, also came. In addition, there were two other Foundation Establishment cultivators from the human race, and a middle-aged rogue cultivator in the early stage of Foundation Establishment, known as the Lone Pine Immortal.
The other was an elderly, bald man with a restrained aura. He was a senior early-stage Foundation Establishment cultivator named Jiang Mu, and one of the Supreme Elders of the Righteous Qi Sect, a Foundation Establishment sect.
The Righteous Qi Sect is a Foundation Establishment sect near Baiquan Lake Market. It has three early Foundation Establishment cultivators and is quite famous in the surrounding thousands of miles.
After Qin Shanmian left the pass.
In most cases, he was the one who negotiated, but he would usually ask the Foundation Establishment cultivators who came if they had any spiritual items such as second-tier or higher spiritual essence blood.
Lin Li actually managed to acquire another second-tier low-grade bloodline, the Crimson-tailed Sand Scorpion.
This auction at Baiquan Lake Market was quite fruitful.
What worried Lin Li and Qin Shanmian was that Gu Jing and Daoist, who had left the market to search for old friends and descendants, had not been able to send back a single message talisman during this time.
If something unexpected happens, it will be bad for Baiquanhu Market.
Lin Li had personally fought the second-tier demon puppet that had escaped from the ruins of Penglai Mountain, and knew how troublesome that demon puppet was.
Before he joined Baiquanhu Market, Gu Jing and his fellow Daoist had a tough time dealing with those demon puppets.
The sky was getting dark.
Inside the auction venue at Baiquanhu Market.
Under the illumination of the spiritual light, the entire large venue was brightly lit, with hundreds of Qi Refining cultivators present, in addition to the four Foundation Establishment cultivators who came to the auction.
The venue was packed.
In the center of the venue, a highly accomplished Taoist priest from the local market presided over the auction.
Lin Li and Qin Shanmian were in a private room on the second floor, overseeing the situation.
"Fellow Daoist Liu, the number of fellow Daoists attracted to this auction is two fewer than usual."
"Last time, there were six fellow Daoists who came."
"Of the two missing comrades, one of them died at the hands of the Foundation Establishment demon cultivators, the Tong Clan Twin Demons. Those two were notorious villains."
"They are all at the peak of the early Foundation Establishment stage, skilled in combined attacks, and can even put up a fight against cultivators in the mid-Foundation Establishment stage."
"If you encounter Fellow Daoist Liu, you must flee immediately."
"As for the other one, he was the sect leader of the Kunshan Sect. He had discussed the Dao many times, and passed away last year when he reached the end of his lifespan."
When Qin Shanmian, who was inside the formation in the private room, spoke of the Kunshan Sect Master behind him, a hint of sadness flashed in his eyes.
"The Tong Family Twin Demons?"
Lin Li frowned slightly.
This was the first time he had heard of this.
"That's right."
"However, the Tong Clan Twin Demons do not operate in this area. They usually operate around the Shadow Gate Market, attacking Qi Refining or early Foundation Establishment cultivators who come and go from the market."
Qin Shanmian explained.
"Um?"
Just then, Lin Li and Qin Shanmian both sensed something and immediately took out the communication jade slips from their storage bags.
"Fellow Daoist Liu, Fellow Daoist Qin, save me!"
"That mid-stage demonic cultivator, Liao Song, is chasing me."
"There's no way to shake them off, so I have to go back to the market!"
The jade slip containing the sound transmission transmitted Gu Jinghe's anxious voice.
