Immortal of the Nine Realms

Chapter 223: Completion of Talisman

By the time the first item was auctioned out, Fang Chen had only completed a tenth of his Purple Lightning Talisman. Naturally, he couldnt be bothered with what was happening there.

The Purple Lightning Talisman was already crackling with lightning despite only being a tenth complete. The sheer energy in it wouldnt pale in comparison to even a completed mid-grade Purple Lightning Talisman.

It was a good thing that Fang Chen had spirit ki to squander, so he could envelop the area around him with a spirit ki barrier while drawing the talisman to avoid alarming the cultivators outside.

Time slowly ticked by.

The auction continued, but Fang Chen remained focused on his talisman.

Eventually, Fang Chen finally finished up his last stroke. A complete Purple Lightning Talisman was now sitting in front of him. Lightning energy continuously surged from the surroundings into the talisman. A terrifying aura sought to ripple outward, but Fang Chen firmly suppressed it with his spirit ki.

High-grade? Or pinnacle?

Fang Chen examined the Purple Lightning Talisman before him, uncertain about its grade. Regardless, he was certain that it had to be high-grade at the minimum. Its aura was much stronger than a mid-grade Purple Lightning Talisman.

In truth, he had already depleted his spirit ki halfway through the drawing, but fortunately, his special constitution allowed him to swiftly recover his spirit ki and continue the drawing. If not for that, his Purple Lightning Talisman would have been busted.

This showed that a normal eighth stage Ki Refinement cultivator wouldnt have been able to draw a talisman of this caliber!

Everyone, I hereby conclude the auction. Im grateful that you traveled all the way here to join my humble event. If you are in no rush to leave, please do stay behind to exchange insights, Boss You announced.

Fang Chen stowed away his Purple Lightning Talisman, got up, and left the room.

On the way, he bumped into the Pristine Poison King. He didnt glance at the latter, and the two of them passed each other by.

You there, stop, the Pristine Poison King suddenly turned around to look at Fang Chen.

Yes? Fang Chen stopped and turned around.

It was only now that the little hunchback saw Fang Chen. His eyes gleamed, but the light slowly vanished after.

You look unfamiliar. Are you a sect disciple? the Pristine Poison King asked. Which sect are you from? I might be acquainted with your sect elders.

I dont think my sect elders know you, Fang Chen replied before leaving.

The Pristine Poison King didnt lose his temper despite Fang Chens rudeness. Instead, he murmured contemplatively, His body looks like top-grade material for nurturing poison. Little bastard, should I have him replace you after you die?

The little hunchback shuddered.

The Pristine Poison King burst into laughter, thinking that the little hunchback feared death. Little did he know what the little hunchback truly feared

Fang Chen met a delighted Song Yu at the doorway.

Brother, I was just about to look for you! Song Yu said merrily.

Chief Song, did something good happen? Fang Chen asked.

It was obvious that Song Yu participated in the cultivation method auction too, albeit not on the surface. From the looks of it, it would appear that he had obtained a copy of it.

What else? The auction went well, and it brought a lot of income for our Dragonback Lane, Song Yu replied with a laugh.

Fang Chen chuckled. Allow me to congratulate you then, Chief Song. I have stayed here for quite some time. I should take my leave now.

Song Yu wanted to retain Fang Chen, but he held his tongue seeing that Fang Chen had made up his mind.

Senior Wei, why do we have to be so careful? We arent the only ones who participated in the purchase of the cultivation method.

Li Huafeng noticed how careful the middle-aged cultivator was, looking back from time to time to check if there was anyone following him. That left him worried.

This is another thing our master wishes to teach you. Now that you are walking on this path, you need to be constantly on your guard, lest you die in vain. The middle-aged man heaved a sigh of relief upon seeing that there was no one behind him.

He turned to Li Huafeng and explained, Birds die for food. Humans die for wealth. This cultivation manual is a treasure that others will put their lives on the line for. If we let our guard down, we might just die before knowing it.

Do those unaffiliated cultivators dare to make a move on our Cloudless Monastery? Li Huafeng asked with a frown.

He had gained a deeper understanding of the world of cultivation in recent days. While the Cloudless Monastery was not on the same level as the South Heaven Sect and the Beast Spirit Valley, it would still be a formidable power if placed in Infernoblaze.

It was a second-tier power at the very least.

The reverend of the Cloudless Monastery was a twelfth stage Ki Refinement cultivator, and he was just a Foundation Establishment Pill away from making a breakthrough.

Li Huafeng had witnessed the means of a twelfth stage Ki Refinement cultivator.

Experts of that caliber could even toy with a wave of over 300 meters tall. That was truly the means of an immortal!

He didnt think that there were many experts on par with the Cloudless Monasterys reverend.

The middle-aged man shook his head. Dont think that those unaffiliated cultivators wouldnt dare to make a move on us just because our master is a twelfth stage Ki Refinement cultivator. They wont hesitate to make a move if the reward is tempting enough.

Li Huafeng nodded. That further built his impression of how cultivators were.

They hesitated to interfere in secular affairs because they were worried about karma. They hesitated to make a move because they feared for their lives. However, if there were substantial rewards on the line, they would become fearless and vicious!

Wei Changqing, I thought you would be cultivating hard in the Cloudless Monastery. When did you become a teacher? That fellow must be a talented one for you to keep him by your side, a mocking voice echoed from the front.

The middle-aged mans body stiffened. He glared at the figure who had just appeared in front of him with fearful eyes.

Pristine Poison King.

Its him Li Huafengs face darkened.

He had asked about the Pristine Poison Kings background earlier in the auction hall too, and learning that the other party was a poison expert and had once even pushed back a Foundation Establishment cultivator filled him with fear.

It was obvious why the Pristine Poison King had appeared before him.

Tell me, whats that fellows background? the Pristine Poison King pointed to Li Huafeng as he asked.

The middle-aged mans face darkened. Hes my masters personal disciple. My master has high hopes for him, which was why he had me bring him around to teach him.

Oh? The Pristine Poison King frowned. The Cloudless Monasterys reverend has high hopes for him? Whats his aptitude?

My master has ordered me to not carelessly reveal my juniors aptitude. All you need to know is that my master has high hopes for him, the middle-aged man replied.

Hahaha! Do you think thatll intimidate me? The Pristine Poison King burst into laughter.

The middle-aged mans face darkened. He asked with a deeper voice, What do you want? Dont forget that Im at tenth stage Ki Refinement too. Im no weaker than you.

What if we join in too?

Eight more people suddenly appeared. They were either at ninth stage or tenth stage Ki Refinement.

The middle-aged mans face paled. He gritted his teeth and got to the point, You want the cultivation method, right? Ill let you copy it.

The crowd was surprised to see how decisive he was.

However, the Pristine Poison King sneered, Are you really planning to let him live? We have offended him today. If you dont want the Cloudless Monastery to chase you to the ends of the world, well have to crush them to dust today. We mustnt leave any evidence behind.

Both the middle-aged man and Li Huafengs face turned awful.
