Seeing this, Patriarch Wu on the side gritted his teeth and offered the spiritual stone he had brought.
Fu Changsheng had a smile on his face:
"Clan Chief Wu, father-in-law, since you can trust me, then take the spirit stone back. Since I have promised you, I will naturally take you into the auction venue."
The implication.
I just found a way.
Patriarch Wu and Liu Qingmin's eyes lit up and they were so excited that they thanked them again and again.
While talking.
A young man outside the door came forward and said:
"Master, the waiter at Laifu Inn outside my door has sent a secret letter."
Said.
The boy handed over an envelope with restrictions on it.
Fu Changsheng took it and opened it, but it was Uncle Feng who asked him to go to Laifu Inn. The reason why he did not use the Jade Talisman to send a message seemed to be because he was afraid that the news would be leaked.
Come out of Wandan Pavilion.
After entering the Laifu Inn, he went directly to the top floor, arrived at the room named Xuan, and knocked on the door. The formation light curtain surged, and a gap came into view.
inside the room.
But there was only one person in Shangguanfeng.
After the formation is closed.
Fu Changsheng said curiously:
"Uncle Feng, Hongyu didn't come with you?"
"Red Jade in Retreat"
Shangguan Feng handed a cup of Laiyun tea brewed on the tea table to Fu Changsheng.
Fu Changsheng didn't know the taste of some food.
The last time they met, Hongyu was one step ahead of him and had reached the peak of foundation building. Could it be that he was practicing some secret technique in seclusion at this time.
Shangguan Feng saw that he was absent-minded and glared:
"This is the best Laiyun tea. I managed to get it for less than a cent from that old guy from the Shi family. Enjoy it."
Fu Changsheng smiled awkwardly.
Taste it carefully.
I found that this Laiyun tea didn't feel anything when I first took it into my mouth. But after I drank it, my restless heart calmed down and my mouth was fragrant:
"Uncle Feng, good tea!"
Fu Changsheng smiled and gave Shangguan Feng a refill.
After the two exchanged pleasantries.
A magic spell from Shangguan Feng penetrated the light curtain of the magic circle, only to see another soundproof light shield being completed.
Looking at this battle, Fu Changsheng seemed to have something important to say.
Shangguan Feng looked solemn:
"Changsheng, when you entered Wanningfang City, you must have seen many foundation-building monks from Huaibei Mansion. Do you know why they came?"
Hear the strings and know the elegant meaning.
Fu Changsheng's heart moved:
"Uncle Feng, is it possible that in addition to Foundation Establishment Pills, there are other high-level spiritual materials and spiritual treasures to be auctioned in the Wanning Chamber of Commerce's auction?"
"Um"
Shangguan Feng put down the teacup.
Quick voice transmission:
"The news I got from the Wanning Chamber of Commerce is that there will be three final treasures in this auction, one of which is the well-known Foundation Establishment Pill."
"certainly"
"Since it is reserved for the finale, there will naturally be more than one Foundation Establishment Pill. It is said that the last auction for the Foundation Establishment Pill will be conducted in groups of ten."
A set of ten.
Based on previous years' bidding prices.
I'm afraid it will cost more than 300,000 spirit stones.
Fu Changsheng suddenly realized.
It seems that the last set of foundation-building pills were auctioned for the noble family.
How can casual cultivators have such financial resources?
The Fu family currently has ten foundation-building pills in hand. If there are so many spiritual stones, they will not be used for bidding, but for building the city.
After all, the Fu family now holds the elixir recipe.
As long as you find the foundation-building elixir, you can refine it, so you don't need to be taken advantage of and give money to others.
"Changsheng, if your Fu family can't get this spiritual stone, you have to take action before then. A single spiritual pill will most likely be auctioned by the qi-training family and casual cultivators. When the time comes, you can focus on a few of them bundled together." The foundation-building elixir of the group is the most cost-effective."
Fu Changsheng participated in the auction for the first time.
I didn't think of many details.
After receiving Shangguanfeng's advice, he said gratefully:
"Thank you Uncle Feng for your advice."
but.
He was more curious about what the other two final treasures were.
Shangguan Feng paused.
Continued:
"As for the second final treasure, it is said to be a first-level Xuan-level skill. This skill can be practiced to the Golden Core stage, which is only a little bit worse than the Earth-level. This time, the eighth-level aristocratic family in Huaibei Prefecture also came here after hearing the news. , everyone's purpose is very simple, the foundation building pill is only the second, the most important thing is this Xuanjie first-grade technique. "
When saying this.
Shangguan Feng's eyes flashed with enthusiasm.
Obviously.
Shangguan Feng was also very excited about this technique.
Fu Changsheng's heart tightened.
He did not expect that just the first-level Xuan-level skills could make the Huainan Prefecture and Huaibei-level eighth-level aristocratic family so eager. If others knew that their Fu family not only had earth-level skills, but also heaven-level skills, The Fu family's annihilation is probably just around the corner.
"Fortunately, the family's high-level skills only leave the Qi training chapters in the library."
Fu Changsheng's face showed a look of shock and eagerness, and then he said:
"Uncle Feng, what is the last treasure?"
"The last thing, I asked that old guy from the Shi family, but he didn't know either."
After hearing this, Fu Changsheng felt that the Wanning Chamber of Commerce's marketing method was really good, and it fully attracted everyone's curiosity and enthusiasm. Moreover, the first-grade Xuanjie technique was probably leaked by the Chamber of Commerce itself, and it was aimed at the consumer groups of the eighth-grade. Family.
Like their ninth grade family.
In the eyes of the Wanning Chamber of Commerce, they could only squeeze through their heads to grab the Foundation Establishment Pill.
Finished talking about the auction.
Shangguanfeng changed the topic and turned to the original topic:
"Changsheng, were you wondering just now why Hongyu still needs to retreat when he has already reached the peak of foundation building?"
"Uncle Feng, isn't Hong Yu practicing secret skills?"
"Of course not"
Shangguan Feng shook his head.
I saw him spreading his right hand, and then a wisp of true energy overflowed from his fingertips:
"See how this true essence is different from yours?"
Shangguanfeng is a sword cultivator and has a metallic spiritual root, so the techniques he practices are the same.
Therefore, the true essence contains an edge that no one can look directly at.
However, if you look closely, you will find that strands of true energy are swirling around Shangguan Feng's fingertips, but the power contained in them is ten times more terrifying than his true energy:
"Uncle Feng, your true energy seems to have been tempered to the point where there is no flaw at all, it is extremely pure."
When Shangguan Feng saw Fu Changsheng, it was obvious.
The final result is satisfactory.
The ray of true energy was taken into the body and said:
"Then now do you know why Hongyu went into seclusion?"
Fu Changsheng nodded slightly, feeling moved.
If you guessed correctly.
Shangguan Hongyu is preparing to open up the acupoints in the two major Dantians.
Shangguan Feng did not show off and said directly:
"Changsheng, I can't say much about the secrets of the Purple Mansion because it involves the secrets of the imperial court, but please remember one thing. If you want to go further in the path of cultivation, you must be willing to give up during the foundation building period. Work hard and don't rush for success. You are only in your early forties now, and there are still more than a hundred years before your deadline. If you believe in Uncle Feng, then use this time to do everything you can to combine your body and your true self. Yuan tempered to the extreme."
This is a heartfelt statement.
Especially Fu Changsheng, who knew the secrets of the Zi Mansion, understood Shangguan Feng's good intentions.
If he guessed correctly.
Shangguan Feng should have opened up the two major dantians. It was because of his personal experience that he was so aware of his destiny. As for why the other party has not yet taken the step out of Zifu, Fu Changsheng did not know, but for Shangguan Feng's words The words are truly touching.
He stood up and bowed:
"I will always remember Uncle Feng's teachings."
"Just keep my words in your heart. Sit, sit, sit. There is no need to be so polite between you and me."
After Fu Changsheng sat down.
Shangguan Feng mentioned another important matter:
"There are rumors that there is only one eighth-grade family left in Huainan Mansion. You must have heard about it, Changsheng. What do you think?"
"Uncle Feng, I didn't think too much about it. Our fiefdom is at the entrance of Shiwanda Mountain, so currently our Fu family's energy is focused on how to resist the beast tide. As for which family will win the spot, it's all Let's talk about the future. After all, there is no real announcement from the court."
"You think clearly"
Shangguan Feng smiled slightly.
Originally, he had planned that Fu Changsheng would get into trouble with the Cui family because of this. That's the case.
He was relieved.
However, he still said:
"The Cui family is under the rule of the Shi family. Once the old guy is in charge of the Shi family, they will never allow the families under his rule to fight. So as long as you don't provoke the Cui family, the Qi family, and the Hong family, no matter how powerful the rumors are outside, the three members of the Cui family will No one will be the first to attack your Fu family."
"Yes, Uncle Feng"
A ninth-grade family under the rule of the Shangguan family.
The Lin family is considered useless.
Shangguanfeng naturally does not want the Fu family to make the same mistake again.
The two exchanged a few words. After drinking a pot of tea, Fu Changsheng stood up and left.
Come down from the third floor.
But I heard a rather familiar complaint coming from the second floor:
"I am the eldest son of the Xu family. Why can he, the second son, Xu, live on the top floor, while I, Xu Changqing, can only live on the second floor? Huh, I'll go find my aunt right now."
Xu Changqing rushed towards the Zhenshi Division like a gust of wind.
Xu Changzhi, who was following him, wanted to persuade but dared not.
Xu Changqing arrived at Zhenshi Division.
On the contrary, I met Palace Master Xu quite smoothly. Palace Master Xu is not married. He and Xu Changqing's mother have been best friends since childhood. Xu Changqing's mother has been a life-saving grace to Palace Master Xu. When Xu's mother was able to marry into the Xu family, it was Palace Master Xu who held the bridge. Take the line.
So for Xu Changqing.
Palace Master Xu treats the other party as his own child.
Seeing that he was in a hurry, he waved his hand and signaled the steward to go down. After closing the magic circle, he patted the storage bag and a box of Yunling crab snacks floated towards Xu Changqing:
"You are almost 30 years old, but you still act like a child and lose your temper easily. These are the Yunling crab cakes I brought back to you from Jingzhou. Please try them to calm down your anger."
"Auntie, I'm not in the mood to have any snacks right now.
You don't know that last time in Canglan Secret Realm, my father saw me returning empty-handed and destroying three foundation builders. In anger, he and the elders had removed me as the young clan leader. .
Now he is holding Xu Laoer, who was created by Aunt Qiao, to take the top position. "
"This time, for such a big thing as the Wanning Chamber of Commerce auction, my father directly gave Xu Laoer full responsibility. Xu Laoer took the eldest elder to live directly on the top floor of Laiyun Inn, but my eldest son could only condescend to him. , lived on the second floor."
"aunt"
"Hurry up and help me intercede with my father. If this continues, won't Xu Laoer be trying to dominate me in the future?"
Xu Changqing opened his small mouth and kept talking.
Apparently he felt that he had suffered a lot of grievances at home, and finally found someone to whom he could talk.
Palace Master Xu just listened.
But there was no reply.
After Xu Changqing finished speaking, he felt very thirsty. He raised the cup of tea and drank a sip. Only then did he realize that Palace Master Xu didn't say a word:
"aunt"
"The failure of my mission in Canglan Secret Realm was all caused by the Cui family. You also know this. The evidence is right in front of you. Otherwise, how could the Cui family come up with nine copies of the foundation-building elixir? Auntie, all this It's all the fault of the Cui family, but dad took it out on me. I'm a mute and I'm so wronged to death."
Palace Master Xu knew that his nephew was naturally lustful.
This mission failed.
Most likely they fell down on this.
If not.
The other party will not start clamoring to find Miss Lin as soon as they leave Canglan Secret Realm.
Although Palace Master Xu dotes on Xu Changqing, he also knows Xu Changqing's temper. If the clan does not cure him, his life will be in danger when he goes outside and waits for others to take action.
Therefore, she did not stop Patriarch Xu from pushing Xu Laoer to power. She originally wanted Xu Changqing to teach Xu Changqing a lesson and reflect on it, but now it seems that nothing has changed.
The punishment of depriving the young patriarch is too shallow.
Palace Master Xu said with a solemn expression:
"Chang Qing, with the Cui family's attitude, if there is a chance, my aunt will help you out, but my aunt has something important that needs you to return to the family immediately and hand it over to your father in person."
Xu Changqing had never seen his aunt look so serious before. He was stunned for a moment. Although he still wanted to join in the fun in Wanningfang City, he still curled his lips and muttered:
"All right"
Said.
He put the box handed over by Palace Master Xu into his storage bag, and when he turned to leave, he suddenly remembered that he had forgotten something, and turned around to take away the Yunling crab cakes on the table.
After Fu Changsheng returned to Wandan Pavilion from Laiyun Inn, he did not go out again. On the day of the bidding meeting, he was sitting cross-legged in the secret room and suddenly thought:
"Exchange information"
The auction is about to begin soon.
Naturally, I want to exchange the information and see if I can get beneficial information from it.
Buzz!
The panel vibrates.
A large amount of yellow light surged and surged.
Then lines of text appeared:
[1: Xu Changqing complained to Palace Master Xu and asked Palace Master Xu to help him avenge the Cui family. After returning to the clan with the secret box entrusted to him by Palace Master Xu, he was imprisoned in Siguo Cliff for a full ten years. It was not until the beast tide broke out that they were released]
[2: In order to bid for more Foundation Building Pills, the Liang family did not hesitate to take out a box from the Blood Forbidden Zone to bid. This box was obtained by their ancestors of the Liang family. No one in Liang Zhishan's generation can open it. ]
[3: In today's auction, there will be three soul-nourishing grass seeds that are only half alive. The soul-nourishing grass is the main medicine for refining soul-nourishing pills]
[4: There will be three final treasures in the auction]
[5: Your wife Liu Rumei's natal family is the Liu family. The father of the ancestor of the Liu family is actually a direct descendant of the Liu family, the five major qi training families in Taiyun County, Jingzhou. The Liu family in Taiyun County is a family of talisman masters]
[6:.]
A total of ten pieces of information were redeemed.
Fu Changsheng's eyes passed over each piece of information.
There is not much information related to the auction, and the most specific information given is only the three soul-nurturing grass seeds:
"It seems that if you want to get more specific information, you have to enter the auction site to find out."
Fu Changsheng stood up immediately.
After coming out of the secret room.
But they saw that Patriarch Wu and Liu Qingmin had been waiting for a long time.
Fu Yongshang presented a treasure bag to Fu Changsheng with both hands:
"Master, this is the spiritual stone that our Wandan Pavilion gathered together."
Take the treasure bag.
Fu Changsheng asked one more question:
"Yongshang, I have been in seclusion for the past few days. Is there any news coming out in the city?"
He only exchanged ten pieces of information.
There are bound to be some omissions.
Moreover, the information provided by the system is random.
Fu Yongshang organized his language and said in an orderly manner:
"Report to the owner of the family"
"There are rumors that one of the three final treasures in the Wanning Chamber of Commerce's auction this time is the first-level Xuanjie technique. This news is the most reliable and can be spread by people with noses and eyes."
"also"
"There are various theories about the other two final treasures. Some say they are the elixir that can break through the Purple Mansion, others say it is the elixir that cleanses the essence and removes the marrow, and some even say it is the spiritual fruit that can increase longevity."
"Because of this rumor"
"I heard that one or two of the great cultivators of the Zi Mansion who were originally in seclusion came here, but I don't know whether it's true or not."
"But someone is secretly selling Wanning Chamber of Commerce admission tokens. One of them is said to have been sold for three thousand spirit stones."
After Fu Changsheng finished listening.
His eyebrows twitched.
Even the system failed to provide specific information about the last treasure.
Could it be that there really is no magic pill to break through the Zi Mansion?
As for the suggestion that the Purple Mansion's Overhaul was alerted and came to attend the meeting, he thought it was unlikely. After all, he had seen the Purple Mansion's Overhaul appear once when the Canglan Secret Realm was opened last time.
But what comes to mind.
Before Fu Changsheng left the house, he still gave some instructions:
"Yongshang, recently, the protective array of Wandan Pavilion is still operating at full speed as much as possible. The monks coming in from Wanningfang City are mixed, just in case."
"Yes, Master"
Fu Yongshang nodded hurriedly.
When Fu Changsheng left the Wandan Pavilion, he immediately ordered the servant to fill the center of the formation with spirit stones and run the protective formation at full speed.
Fu Changsheng took Patriarch Wu and Liu Qingmin to the Wanning Chamber of Commerce, but saw a long queue at the door. In front of him were Patriarch He and Patriarch Cao.
Even the head of the ninth-grade aristocratic family had to queue up.
Fu Changsheng was about to step forward when he saw a young woman standing at the front door of Wanning Chamber of Commerce walking down quickly and bowed slightly to Fu Changsheng:
"Clan Chief Fu, I am Qin Ruyi, the granddaughter of Elder Qin. Chief Fu, please follow me."
Qin Ruyi's cultivation is already in the late stage of foundation building.
Fu Changsheng followed him around the main gate, but arrived at the corner gate. Not far from the corner gate, he saw a familiar face. It was Situ Feng from Huaibei Mansion whom he had met several times last time he entered Canglan Secret Realm.
Situ Feng nodded slightly to Fu Changsheng, almost invisible.
He walked in through the corner door first.
Qin Ruyi slapped the storage bag, and instantly the three boxes floated towards Fu Changsheng:
"Clan Chief Fu, these are three robes that block spiritual prying eyes. After you put them on, even if the Purple Mansion's overhaul comes, they won't be able to see your true face. Enter through the corner door, and a maid will take you to the third floor. When you arrive, On the third floor, if you see an unoccupied private room, you can enter directly."
