Chapter 941 – Underground Trade Fair
”Hehe, it’s rare for brother Wang to show up as well, I thought that you would still continue to cultivate that ‘Turtle Spirit Skill’ in seclusion this time and not come out of it, how dare I disturb brother Wang’s purification.” The old man surnamed Fu seemed to have known the silver-robed cultivator for a long time, and greeted him very familiarly.
”The Turtle Spirit Skill old man can only stop at the seventh layer, I guess there is no hope of advancing to the middle YuanYing stage in this life. On the contrary, I heard from Deacon Zhao that there is a suspected mid YuanYing Taoist friend in the building, and he wants to buy the TianJi Mansion that has been placed in this pavilion for hundreds of years, coupled with the fact that Brother Fu has also come to this pavilion in a big way, how can Mister Wang not come out to meet with him.” The silver-robed cultivator was in his fifties, and after his gaze flicked over Han Li’s body, he lightly smiled and bowed his hand in a salute.
Hearing the other side say this, Han Li which still do not know that the other side is that white-robed middle-aged man said just now, Elder Wang, and a sweep of the divine sense, has seen that the other side is a YuanYing early stage cultivator, but the other side’s face is white with some strange, obviously is the cultivation of the technique is a bit special cause.
”Brother Wang is polite, Mister Han has also heard about the great name of Tianji Pavilion for a long time, and that’s why I will pay a visit to your pavilion.” Han Li returned the salute after revealing a hint of a smile.
”Fellow Daoist Han wants to exchange for the Tian Ji Mansion? Tsk, fellow Daoist is truly worthy of being an overseas cultivator, your handwriting is not small. It seems that the saying that there are many treasures overseas is really true.” The old man with the surname Fu heard this, but said with some surprise.
”Overseas is that there are some materials that are more rare, but how can it be compared to the vastness of the inland lands, the two fellow Daoists are really joking.” Han Li, however, said noncommittally.
Han Li’s words naturally couldn’t make the two YuanYing stage cultivators believe anything, but it wasn’t a good idea to ask what was going on overseas, or else it would not be a small thing to be misunderstood by a high-ranking cultivator like Han Li that they had a prying heart.
At this time, the middle-aged man surnamed Zhao, who followed the silver-robed cultivator, took a few steps forward and placed a large and small jade box in his hands on the table in front of Han Li, while he himself wisely retreated to the side. He was well aware that now that Elder Wang of the pavilion had stepped forward, there was naturally no need for him to say anything more here.
”Since you are interested in this pavilion’s Tianji Mansion, I have brought this item along with your friend Fu’s Thunder Spirit Stone, so that you can take a look at it first.” Elder Wang said politely as he used his hand to point the slightly larger jade box.
”Brother Wang, it’s better to show Brother Han your Tianji Mansion later. Let’s let Mister Fu and Fellow Daoist Han complete the deal first.” The old man surnamed Fu preempted him with a grin.
”I didn’t expect Brother Fu to still be this impatient. Alright then, Brother Fu will go first. I am also greatly interested in what kind of treasures Fellow Daoist Han can take out in exchange for Fellow Daoist’s Thunder Spirit Crystal.” Elder Wang said with a dumbfounded smile.
Hearing that the two had spoken such words, Han Li gave a spontaneous smile and casually slapped his hand into his storage bag, then flipped his palm over and a palm-sized turquoise wooden box appeared in his hand, with two gold and silver-colored talismans affixed to the top of the wooden box.
When the old man with the surname Fu saw how solemn this wooden box looked, his eyes couldn’t help but light up.
Only to see Han Li put the wooden box on the table, and then with a push it slid noiselessly in front of the old man. The old man with the surname of Fu was energized to press the wooden box, and then his sleeve robe was flicked towards the table, and the smaller jade box was likewise sent to Han Li’s side in a steady manner.
Han Li revealed a satisfied color, backhanded jade box in the hands, and then slightly lowered his head to open the box cover, a silver-white light in the box bloomed.
Han Li pupils immediately blue flash, immediately see the silver light in the thing, a fist-sized silver-white stone.
Han Li scrutinized this thing for a long time, suddenly stretched out a finger, fingertip at the flickering light, a strand of indeterminate expansion and contraction of the green mango hidden. Wrist shaking green awn flash under, straight stabbed to the box of silver stone.
As a result, the green mango in contact with the box, a thunderbolt suddenly sounded, followed by a number of slender silver arcs from the stone surged out, will actually block the green mango at once.
”Well, really is the thunder spirit crystal. It’s just that the quality of this Spirit Crystal seems to be just average, which is a bit of a shame, but I’ll be able to make do with it.” Han Li lightly exhaled and raised his head to say solemnly to the red-faced old man.
”How can an Extreme Grade Thunder Spirit Crystal be this easy to obtain. This Spirit Crystal is already something that the old man had to work very hard to discover by chance from the belly of a rare thunder attribute demonic beast.” The old man with the surname Fu similarly finished identifying the Red Essence Ganoderma in Han Li’s wood, but his face was full of satisfied elation, as if he was extremely satisfied with Han Li’s Red Essence Ganoderma.
”However, this Red Essence Ganoderma under me does not have a single trace of disorganized spirit qi, it is definitely an extremely high-grade spirit medicine.” Han Li said without moving. Although he wouldn’t let go of this Thunder Spirit Crystal, he naturally wouldn’t agree to the deal directly at too much of a disadvantage like this.
”That’s true. In terms of value alone, this piece of Thunder Spirit Crystal of old me is indeed slightly inferior to Brother Han’s Extreme Red Essence Chi. How about this, I’ll offer another 30,000 spirit stones as compensation.” The red-faced old man was also quick, and did not purposely conceal the gap between the two, immediately opening up his own conditions.
”Fellow Daoist don’t need to be anxious, first take a look at a list here under me and see if you can provide other materials in it or know the news of some of them. If I have something to offer underneath, it’s fine if Mister Han doesn’t want these spirit stones.” Han Li smiled and calmly placed the jade box in his hand back on the table, but raised his hand to take out the jade slip that recorded the required materials and threw it to the old man.
”Brother Han still needs other materials?” The old man with the surname Fu showed surprise, but without much thought, he took the jade slip and flew through it.
At this time, Elder Wang, who was on the side, looked at the Red Essence Ganoderma in the hands of the old man surnamed Fu, and after his gaze flickered a few times, he pondered.
A few moments later, the old man with the surname of Fu finished reading the jade slip, his face showed an odd color as he glanced at Han Li, actually showing a hint of hesitation in his eyes.
”I’m afraid that Mister Fu will have to disappoint fellow Daoist. These materials are too rare, and I don’t have any of them in my hands. However, the old man may be able to point out a simple place for you to go to obtain these materials.” After hesitating for a while, the old man finally made up his mind and said.
”Pointing out a way to go, are you not talking about the Grand Auction a few days from now?” Han Li’s eyes rolled and he seemed to smile.
”Haha, it’s true that general materials can be purchased there at the Grand Auction, but the chances of something of this caliber that you need appearing are few and far between. After all, the fellow Daoists who possess such rare materials are just like you and me, most of them want to barter for them.” The red-faced old man said disdainfully after he laughed.
”Oh, listening to your friend’s tone, could it be that there is another private trading session?” Han Li was startled, and then his heart rejoiced as he couldn’t help but ask after him.
A trace of weirdness appeared on the rich old man’s face, and suddenly his lips slightly opened without the slightest sound being emitted, while the sound of the old man’s words suddenly resounded in Han Li’s ears.
”Brother Han is truly a wise man. However, this is not really a private trading session, once every ten years, the Jinjing Auction is naturally divided into one bright and one dark conducted from many years ago. The bright one is naturally those fairgrounds supported by the orthodox road held by the fairgrounds, the general cultivators will know, the dark one is the evil sect of the magic road presided over the underground trade fair. In the underground trade fair in general items are still naturally auctioned with spirit stones, but like the materials that you need to grade, most of them are exchanged for goods. However, because many of the things sold in the underground trade fair are explicitly prohibited in the Immortal Cultivation World, fundamentally speaking, there are still some that are not allowed to see the light of day. Therefore, can participate in this trade fair generally must be know the roots of the cultivators can. I’m afraid it’s a bit inconvenient for you to be an overseas cultivator. But if you agree to this deal, I am willing to be your introduction, I think you will be able to gain a lot in the underground trade fair.” The old man said a whole bunch of words in one breath, then stared at Han Li with a grave expression on his face, waiting for a reply.
”So it is. But may I ask Brother Fu, are these two bright and dark trade fairs being held at the same time? Although I want to participate in the Underground Trade Fair, I don’t want to let go of the Grand Auction all the same.” Han Li frowned and thought for a moment before asking carefully.
”This is simple, although the two are held at the same time, the auction exchange of the rarest materials in the back is intentionally staggered by one day in terms of time. I’m sure that you, Dao Friend, will never be able to look at the ordinary things in front of you, and need not worry about missing out on anything.” The old man replied with a confident chest.
”In that case, let’s follow what fellow Daoist said. I am indeed greatly interested in this underground trade fair.” Han Li was also a decisive person, and agreed in a single breath without further consideration.
”Good, I knew Brother Han was a straightforward person. On the last day of the Grand Auction, you will come back to wait for me in front of this Tianji Pavilion.” Seeing that he could save tens of thousands of spirit stones in the blink of an eye, the old man with the surname Fu said with the same great joy.
This time, the words were not transmitted, which made the silver-robed cultivator who was quietly watching the two of them transmitting the sound transaction listen to a heartbeat, but on his face, he smiled and did not show the slightest difference.
Until Han Li and the old man were respectively collected Thunder Spirit Crystal and Red Essence Ganoderma Lucidum, he only smiled and opened his mouth to say: ”Congratulations to the two friends of the road each have gained. Does brother Han still intend to look at this cabinet’s Tianji Mansion below? However, for what this treasure of this pavilion is to be exchanged for, one thousand year old Red Essence Ganoderma is far from enough.” Although he spoke in an unusually polite manner, the approximate value of the Heavenly Qi Mansion was vaguely pointed out in a few sentences.
”That’s fine, as long as this item truly satisfies Mister Han, I won’t be stingy.” Han Li said with a faint smile, not caring.
”Since Brother Han has said so, I also believe that with Brother Han’s overseas cultivator’s wealth, taking down this Tianji Mansion shouldn’t be a problem. Fellow Daoist follow me to our pavilion’s special mustard space and see the restored Tianji Mansion.” Elder Wang’s smile grew even wider on his face when he heard Han Li’s not-so-small mouth.
”Mustard space?” Han Li’s heart was shaken, and the shocked color on his face couldn’t help but show twice.
”What, have you not heard of Mustard Space? Right, I almost forgot, this secret art that can refine spatial fissures into private space was only researched in Da Jin in the last thousand years. Fellow Daoist comes from overseas, it’s not unusual for you not to know about it.” Elder Wang slapped himself on the back of the head and became somewhat dazed.
