Chapter 163 The demons dance wildly
Pushing open the gate, I looked at the courtyard where I had lived for several years. The exotic flowers and plants inside were still flourishing, as if it were just yesterday.
He held the gifted pill tightly in his arms, feeling an indescribable feeling in his heart. What was this? Was it compensation for serving her? It seemed as if he was at a disadvantage.
As the courtyard gate closed, a hint of darkness flashed in Concubine Yu's eyes.
She raised her palm and took out a sound transmission talisman and stuck it on her forehead. The voice of the eccentric young man came out from it. As he spoke, the woman's expression became more and more calm, and there was a thoughtful look in her eyes.
Even though his strength was average now, he had at least gotten rid of his status as a rural cultivator and could finally step up to the table and get a piece of the pie.
But when facing this group of demon cultivators, he still had to hide his foundation-building strength and let them let down their guard before he could take advantage of the opportunity. Thinking of this, Yu Fei felt that she had to make some more preparations to leave a way out for herself.
Avoid becoming an abandoned child and becoming a tool for others.
Looking up outside the wall, I thought of the couple next door and their lovely child. There is an undercurrent in this market, so let them leave first.
A few days passed in a flash. The number of independent cultivators gradually increased in the market, and it became extremely lively.
Yu Fei was wearing a large black cloak that covered her slender body, and her face looked a bit simple and honest. She exuded the state of perfection of the Qi Refining Stage.
Walking along the street towards the auction house, there were quite a lot of monks along the way, and the sounds of noisy discussions from passers-by could be heard everywhere.
"I don't know how many foundation-building pills will be released at this auction. I feel like there should be a lot more than last time."
"It's hard to say. In the past few years, the foundation-building monks of Qingxu Sword Pavilion have sprung up like mushrooms after rain, including the sword genius Song Mingan and the demon-slaying sword fairy Du Jinhong. There are countless more hidden ones."
When the man heard this, his face suddenly fell.
"What should we do? Why is it so difficult for us casual cultivators to obtain a foundation-building pill?"
The person who spoke showed surprise in his eyes and glanced at the complaining monk.
"How can a casual cultivator like you get a glimpse of the foundation-building pill? If you have a skill in cultivating immortality, you can go to a family near Lingquan Market and sign a contract to sell yourself. As long as you succeed in building your foundation, you will serve them for a hundred years, and you will still have a chance to get one."
"century?"
The man made a bitter face and bowed his hands to thank her. "I suddenly feel that it would be better to be free."
"Freedom?" The man couldn't help but sneer.
"When you turn into a pile of yellow earth, you won't think so. What's the point of freedom? If I were a female cultivator, as long as you were willing to give me the foundation-building pill, I would be happy to be a concubine and depend on the clan forever."
Yu Fei ignored the complaints of others and silently followed the crowd into the auction venue.
This time, he did not go to the private room on the second floor, but squeezed into the hall with a group of casual cultivators. His divine sense spread out, and he could see the clothes and appearance of the people around him.
I just felt that everyone had a greedy and cunning face, as if they were all evil cultivators who had infiltrated.
Ding ~ Ding ~
A series of crisp sounds attracted everyone's attention and slowly calmed the noisy venue.
With the sound of her heels clacking, a tall female cultivator stood in front of the stage. She looked very happy and proud, and was obviously not the elegant female cultivator who presided over the meeting last time.
The woman was dressed in a slim-fitting brocade dress. She glanced at the crowd below, and her expression became respectful when she looked towards the private room on the second floor.
She opened her red lips slightly and said, "My fellow Taoists, the Lingquan auction has officially begun."
------
At this time, outside the Lingquan Market, dozens of foundation-building monks were hiding in front of the market formation and waiting silently.
The leader was a male cultivator with red hair and beard. His fiery hair made his face look slightly red, and the hot air from his nostrils made the air around him warm.
"What's going on? There's no sign of turbulence in the formation yet?"
The sound of its throat rolling like a lion's roar is enough to scare people away.
Seeing this, a late-stage foundation-building cultivator behind him hurriedly stepped forward. "Master, there is still a cup of tea before the agreed time, so the result will probably come soon..."
Before he finished speaking, the Lingquan Market in the distance suddenly shook, and bursts of roars broke out one after another. The protective formation set up during the auction flickered slightly, visible to the naked eye, and suddenly shattered into nothingness with a buzzing tremor.
When the red-haired fake Dan monk saw this, his candle-like eyes lit up and he laughed.
"Well, brothers of the Chen family, you two should be credited with the greatest merit in this robbery of Lingquan Market!"
Red clouds appeared around his body, and his figure shrank and turned into a ball of bright red blood cloud. In the blink of an eye, he crossed a distance of several miles.
The twin brothers standing among the foundation-building monks looked at each other when they saw this, and they could see the joy in their brothers' eyes, and they quickly turned into a beam of light and rose up.
For a moment, the sky was filled with escaping lights, no longer concealing the dense demonic energy as it rushed towards the market town.
Inside the auction venue.
At this moment, Yu Fei's body was tense under her cloak, and she was always paying attention to the surrounding environment.
"Next, we have the highlight of this auction, the Foundation Establishment Pill!"
As the woman on the auction table struck the gavel, a maid slowly walked in carrying a jade box.
As she got closer to the auction platform, the monks in the crowd began to emit traces of spiritual energy fluctuations. Then, dozens of black ink balls were thrown around by someone.
It’s this damn thing!
Although Yu Fei was on guard at all times, she did not expect that someone could bring this thing in during the inspection. Her expression changed drastically and without any hesitation, spiritual light flashed around her. With a clang, a soul soldier appeared in her palm and protected her body.
Boom boom boom——
Explosions sounded one after another.
The thunderbolt exploded in the crowd with a dazzling flash of lightning, and the auction house flashed white.
One thunder bomb is equivalent to a full-strength attack from a cultivator in the early stage of foundation building. With such a large number of bombs, the surrounding cultivators could not even utter a scream before dying under the violent thunder.
Yu Fei hid in the crowd. Although she was affected, the power of her Dharma image only caused her aura to be slightly turbulent.
He looked at the auction house which looked like a ruin, and without hesitation or waiting for the remaining might to dissipate, he stepped forward and turned into a stream of light, rushing towards the inner palace.
Apparently, several people had the same idea as Yu Fei, and three figures entered at the same time.
Silver light floated around Yu Fei, with a three-pointed double-edged sword at her side. Her phoenix eyes swept through the mostly shattered inner palace. There were three Qi Refining Stage monks lying on the ground without a sound.
The only surviving old man in the Foundation Establishment Stage had several storage bags hanging around his waist and was about to flee hastily outside.
However, he didn't expect that before he could take a step forward, three people rushed in, their wrinkled faces full of anger, and they shouted sternly: "Why are you three here? Are you trying to rob me?"
Seeing that the three did not react, his pupils constricted and he quietly took out the talisman from the storage bag and held it in his palm.
"We are disciples of Qingxu Sword Pavilion. How dare you, crazy people, do this?"
As soon as he finished speaking, another cultivator whose appearance could not be seen clearly raised his arm and spun out a blood-colored streak. The demonic energy that burst out was obviously that of a demon cultivator who had practiced the breath-concealing technique to the extreme. Even Yu Fei could not see through it at all.
Following his movement, another demon cultivator silently shot three black demon nails at Yu Fei.
The perfect cooperation between the two was obviously premeditated.
Yu Fei's hand exposed outside the cloak was holding the hilt of the knife. When she saw the magic weapon approaching, she swung her arm hard, and a gust of spiritual wind blew up, accompanied by three crisp sounds of "dangdangdang", which knocked the magic weapon back.
"Physical training?"
The voices of the man and woman were unclear, but they were filled with surprise. Just as he was about to fight again, he saw the man holding the long weapon bursting with pure yin energy, and the demonic energy around him made his cloak float.
"I am one of my own."
