Gou Zaixiu Immortal World Gets A Wife

Chapter 94: Like-minded People (Please Subscribe)

At the same time, Li Guanxuan also breathed a sigh of relief.

Fortunately, he resisted the temptation and refused Murong Li's gift.

Otherwise, the mid-Foundation Building cultivator of the Thunderfire Sect might have come looking for him today.

After all, who knows if there are any mana imprints in that second-grade superior Yin technique that even purification symbols can't resolve?

Moreover, the cultivation world is so vast, and it's difficult for the Thunderfire Sect to find someone like Murong Li, a wandering cultivator.

Only something dirty hidden in "Thunderfire Puppet" can explain everything that happened before him.

Nowadays, Murong Li no longer has the arrogance of a master alchemist. His gray hair falls down, scattered by the wind. With a swollen face, he continuously casts fireball spells and throws many magical treasures, shouting:

"Misunderstanding! It's all a misunderstanding! I didn't mean to take 'Thunderfire Puppet'!"

However, the mid-Foundation Building cultivator of the Thunderfire Sect had a gloomy look in his eyes, a cold smile on his lips. He controlled the second-grade superior puppet with his divine sense and continuously attacked Murong Li.

One punch after another, the sound of impact echoed in the air.

As for the row of highly damaging fireball spells, they were blocked by another defensive puppet.

Not only that, the mid-Foundation Building cultivator of the Thunderfire Sect displayed thunder techniques, and a terrifying thunder prison descended from the sky, suppressing Murong Li.

"Spare me!"

Murong Li was terrified, no longer caring about any lofty demeanor, and desperately knelt down, kowtowing and begging for mercy:

"I will never dare to steal the Thunderfire Sect's Yin technique again. Great immortal, please spare me this time!"

The mid-Foundation Building cultivator of the Thunderfire Sect had a cold gaze and indifferently said, "Spare you? When you and your accomplices stole our sect's technique, did you ever think of sparing those weak Qi Refining disciples?"

As soon as he finished speaking, the mid-Foundation Building cultivator of the Thunderfire Sect didn't hesitate. He clenched his right hand, and the thunder prison quickly contracted!

The cage pillars made of thunder iron seemed to turn into terrifying blades at this moment, instantly cutting Murong Li into pieces.

...

Seeing this scene, Li Guanxuan's face showed no surprise.

Although second-grade middle-tier alchemists were popular among cultivators, when facing a second-grade superior Yin practitioner who excelled in combat and also had mid-Foundation Building cultivation, no one came to help. In the end, there was only a dead end.

"If I had accepted his gift back then, maybe I would have had to lend a hand today and resolve the cause and effect..." Li Guanxuan secretly thought.

So, when it comes to receiving gifts and such, it still depends on the person.

It's best to have less contact with people like Murong Li, who is full of calculations and schemes against others.

During his time in Ruyi City, if he hadn't created a second-grade middle-tier puppet.

With Murong Li's scheming mind, even if he calms down, he would still find an excuse to attack and take the storage bag.

Li Guanxuan didn't think too much about it. All of this was caused by Murong Li, and now he can only bear the consequences.

"I am Yan Mingyao, an elder of the Thunderfire Sect. I have been ordered to chase and kill the thief Murong Li, who stole the Thunderfire Sect's secret technique 'Thunderfire Puppet'. If any of his friends or family want to seek revenge for him, I will take care of them as well!"

The mid-Foundation Building stage cultivator from the Thunderfire Sect raised his hand and took Murong Li's storage bag, his voice echoing in this world.

"The Thunderfire Sect... a sect with a False Pill True Immortal presiding over it, its power is not inferior to the Hua Jing Immortal City."

"No wonder Yan Mingyao is so tough. With the support of a False Pill True Immortal, he dares to kill someone at the early Foundation Building stage outside of Hua Jing Immortal City."

"I have heard some of Murong Li's deeds. This person in Silver Maple City..."

"..."

Listening to the gossip of the surrounding cultivators, Li Guanxuan silently remembered this information.

As a person in the Gu Dao, one must be patient, never stand out, and hide one's abilities. This is a necessary mindset.

But occasionally, one must inquire about the rumors and deeds of the cultivation world, including some small gossip. Only by waiting for the right time and being completely confident can one have a chance at immortality.

As for the trivial benefits in front of him, they can be completely ignored.

People like Murong Li, who like to fight monsters and level up, and cause trouble everywhere, have already met their end.

Moreover, Li Guanxuan still has his family to take care of, so he should be honest and not get involved in unnecessary matters. Not only does it avoid karma, but it also prevents him from getting into trouble.

Li Guanxuan put away his thoughts and walked towards Hua Jing Immortal City.

The ultimate goal of this trip is to obtain second-grade high-quality talismans and puppet materials.

By the way, he will also buy some Purple Feather Tears for his master.

The Lord of Shanggu City is currently in seclusion, and regardless of whether he succeeds or not, there will be frequent battles at the Foundation Building level in the surrounding area during this time. The purpose is to test the Lord of Shanggu City and eventually erode Shanggu City.

After all, no one can resist the temptation of Shanggu City's wealth.

The chaotic era is about to come... Li Guanxuan sighed lightly. He must be fully prepared for whatever may come.

"Although the patriarch of the Yushou You Family says he wants to avenge the ancestors and You Shaoneng, he knows very well in his heart that the current You Family is already at its weakest."

Li Guanxuan thought to himself that without the presence of the old ancestor at the sixth level of Foundation Building, the You family had already started to decline.

According to the information he had gathered, the cultivation families in Hua Jing Immortal City, including some surrounding immortal cities, had already begun encroaching on the You family's industry.

Even the Hua family, with a False Dan stage cultivator, turned a blind eye to the You family.

The current situation of the You family was quite difficult.

So, if there was an opportunity, Li Guanxuan could secretly undermine them.

But actively seeking trouble was unnecessary and did not conform to the principle of survival.

Moreover, the head of the You family was only at the fourth level of Foundation Building, and now Li Guanxuan, with many trump cards up his sleeve, had no fear of the other party.

The once formidable You family in his eyes was now insignificant.

...

There were thirteen market districts in Hua Jing Immortal City, and as a chain store with a reputation in the cultivation world, Myriad Manifestations Pavilion naturally occupied a place in the first market district.

Li Guanxuan went to Myriad Manifestations Pavilion and, after stating his purpose, revealed the secret phrase given by Liu Xiaoxian, thus obtaining three hundred middle-grade spirit stones.

Thinking that in the past, the gift from the beautiful woman's master was only one hundred middle-grade spirit stones, Li Guanxuan couldn't help but sigh in his heart. How many good things were hidden in the beautiful woman's master's small treasury?

As the only disciple of the beautiful woman's master, what if one day...

Li Guanxuan quickly stopped this dangerous thought. He wouldn't touch Liu Xiaoxian's small treasury. After all, he didn't need to worry about spirit stones anymore.

He could still earn a steady income by refining pills and drawing talismans. There was no need to get involved in other dangerous things.

After staying in Hua Jing Immortal City for about half a month, the large-scale auction finally began.

This auction didn't require hiding one's identity, as most of the people who came in were cultivators at the Foundation Building stage. They had some understanding of each other's identities, so there was no need to conceal themselves.

Of course, there were some Foundation Building cultivators who hid their identities, obviously not wanting others to know.

Many Qi Refining cultivators also came to participate, but most of them were here to broaden their horizons and join in the fun.

"Immortal White Wei."

"Immortal Lu Yao."

"Immortal Zi Xi."

"Immortal Yun Lü."

"..."

Entering the venue, Li Guanxuan noticed that many Foundation Building cultivators were greeting the four ethereal female cultivators. They didn't carry themselves with any airs and responded with smiles and greetings.

After listening for a while, Li Guanxuan finally learned the identities of these four women.

Immortal White Wei came from the Ink and Wash Pavilion, a sect that inherited the arts of talisman and painting, with many Confucian and Daoist scholars.

Immortal Lu Yao was the daughter of the head of the Hua family, named Hua Lu Yao, with a mid-stage Foundation Building cultivation.

Immortal Zi Xi came from the Alchemy Sect, as the name suggests, she was a second-grade high-level alchemist with a mid-stage Foundation Building cultivation.

Immortal Yun Lü was a sword cultivator from the Bright Moon Sword Sect. She wore white clothes, had long and straight eyebrows, a calm and tranquil temperament, like an orchid in a secluded valley, with a mid-stage Foundation Building cultivation.

These four immortals had a good reputation in the vicinity and had countless pursuers.

In addition to them, Li Guanxuan also noticed several male cultivators at the late stage of Foundation Building, all of whom had their sects to rely on.

But only one cultivator, a hat-wearing man with a scabbard in his left hand, exuded a strong martial arts aura. He had a weathered face, a stubble of beard, and stood silently in a corner.

From others, Li Guanxuan learned that this person's name was Ruan Da Jiang, a wandering cultivator who cultivated with a fourth-grade low-level spiritual root to the late stage of Foundation Building. He even created the "Da Jiang Sword Technique," which was highly respected by many sword cultivators.

"In a third-grade spiritual vein immortal city, one can see so many capable cultivators..." Li Guanxuan sighed inwardly.

In Azure Serenity City, Shanggu City, and Silver Maple City, he had never heard of such powerful cultivators.

Now that he had come to Hua Jing Immortal City, he finally understood how many talented individuals there were in the cultivation world.

Just picking one of them would surpass Liu Xiaoxian's achievements.

No wonder the beautiful woman's master was deeply affected and ran to the second-grade Spirit City.

But no matter what, Liu Xiaoxian was a peak Foundation Building cultivator with a third-grade Yan Shi technique. Dealing with him, a mere early-stage Foundation Building cultivator, was a piece of cake.

Afterward, Li Guanxuan also saw the head of the You family, who silently sat on a cushion, looking somewhat tired.

Obviously, the recent situation of the You family had made him feel overwhelmed.

Li Guanxuan remained calm. It was not surprising that the You family, who didn't know how to control their younger generation, ended up in this situation.

After a stick of incense.

An old man with white frost on his head stepped onto the stage, wearing a warm smile. After some polite greetings, he explained the rules and announced the official start of the auction.

"The first item up for auction is a Foundation Building pill with a success rate of twenty-five percent. The starting price is five thousand five hundred low-grade spirit stones, with each bid not less than one hundred..."

Hearing the old man's words, Li Guanxuan couldn't help but show surprise on his face.

The unexpected warm-up item turned out to be a Foundation Building Pill with a success rate of twenty-five percent. It seems that Huajing Immortal City, with its fake pills and real experts, is much stronger than he had imagined.

"Master could have come to the auction himself. Even if she couldn't come in person, she could have sent a clone like me..." He thought to himself, but didn't bid.

He no longer needed Foundation Building Pills. If Song Zhiqiao needed one in the future, he could find the materials and refine it himself. By then, he would probably be in the later stages of Foundation Building.

However, he still needed to prepare the materials for Wen Rongxin's Bone Forging Pill. Fortunately, Myriad Manifestations Pavilion had most of these materials.

Unlike the materials for the Poison Refining Pill, Life Gate Pill, and the Huangting Pill and Tianyuan Pill for Foundation Building cultivators to break through to the later stages, Myriad Manifestations Pavilion didn't have them. He could only purchase them or hire someone to search in the mountains.

By the time they reached the seventh item, Li Guanxuan became interested.

"The seventh item is the Dual Cultivation Technique 'Two Principles Formula' obtained from the Gold Core Cave Mansion. It has been appraised as at least a peak Foundation Building technique. The starting price is 15,000 low-grade spirit stones, with each bid not less than 100..."

The voice of the old man rang out, but many cultivators seemed uninterested in the Dual Cultivation Technique.

After three breaths, seeing that no one was bidding, Li Guanxuan spoke up, "15,100!"

"15,500!"

Someone else also bid.

Li Guanxuan was taken aback. There was no one bidding just now, and now there was?

But it didn't matter. He lacked everything except spirit stones.

"16,000!"

"16,500!"

"18,000!"

"..."

When Li Guanxuan raised the bid to 18,000 low-grade spirit stones, the other person was speechless and turned to look at Li Guanxuan.

Li Guanxuan smiled friendly. He knew who the person was.

Huayong Yang, a mid-stage Foundation Building cultivator. It was said that he had twelve concubines in his mansion and also practiced dual cultivation.

"Where does Fellow Daoist come from?" Huayong Yang didn't rush to bid, but greeted Li Guanxuan with a smile.

"Just a wandering cultivator." Li Guanxuan arched his hand.

"This person is just a clone. Based on his clone, his true body is also a Foundation Building cultivator..." A voice entered Huayong Yang's ears, and he understood that Li Guanxuan's background might not be as simple as it seemed.

Huayong Yang sighed, "I am quite interested in this 'Two Principles Formula.' I can't just let it go to Fellow Daoist... 19,000!"

"I understand." Li Guanxuan nodded slightly and then bid, "20,000!"

When Huayong Yang heard this price, his right hand trembled slightly. This was already his bottom line.

A peak Foundation Building Dual Cultivation Technique was worth about this much.

"20,100!"

Huayong Yang gritted his teeth and made the bid.

"..."

After hearing Li Guanxuan's bid, Huayong Yang's eyes rolled, and he said irritably, "Forget it, forget it. I'll give it to you. What bad luck!"

"I'm sorry, I also need a Dual Cultivation Technique very much. I have no intention of inflating the price. I just want to obtain it." Li Guanxuan apologized slightly and explained his reasons.

"Don't worry, as a member of the Hua family, if I were to make a move against you in Huajing Immortal City, it would only bring shame to my family." Huayong Yang smiled generously. "But what I didn't expect is that there are not many cultivators who practice dual cultivation in this world. Today, I have encountered one. Interesting... We can exchange experiences if we have the chance."

How do we exchange experiences? Have a silver party? Li Guanxuan inwardly mocked, but smiled and said, "I would be honored."

When the maid in a palace dress brought the Dual Cultivation Technique over, Li Guanxuan had already prepared 21,000 low-grade spirit stones.

Seeing that Li Guanxuan was indeed generous, Huayong Yang had no other thoughts.

A clone... Many cultivators took a deep look at Li Guanxuan.

Participating in such a large auction with a clone, the other party's identity was indeed mysterious.

As the daughter of the head of the Hua family, Hua Luyao glanced disdainfully at Hua Yongyang, the disgrace of the family, and also looked down on Li Guanxuan.

Dual cultivation is a path chosen only by those with extremely poor aptitude.

...

The auction continued, but Li Guanxuan wasn't very interested in many of the items.

In the evening, the auction paused for a rest and would continue the next day.

Li Guanxuan returned to the inn and didn't notice that he was being watched on the way.

In the cultivation world, it is not uncommon to travel with a clone.

Everyone has worked hard to cultivate to the Foundation Building stage, investing a lot of effort and resources. They wouldn't easily die.

However, Hua Yongyang inquired about where Li Guanxuan was staying.

At night, the innkeeper personally came up to inform Li Guanxuan and asked if he wanted to meet Hua Yongyang.

Li Guanxuan thought for a moment. Huajing Immortal City is the territory of the Hua family, and Hua Yongyang is also a member of the Hua family. It wouldn't hurt to meet him since the other party wouldn't attack him here.

Once the auction ended, his beautiful master would immediately come to pick him up and leave.

Even if he couldn't take the clone, he could still take the items and puppets.

"Hua Fellow Daoist."

Li Guanxuan clasped his hands and introduced himself, "My surname is Li, proficient in talisman and sword techniques. Due to personal reasons, I traveled with a clone."

"Understood, understood... Be cautious when traveling outside," Hua Yongyang said with a smile. "I thought Fellow Daoist Li would stay at the Mei Xian Tower, but I didn't expect you to find a random inn. It's quite surprising."

"Traveling with a clone, I didn't bring much spirit stones, so I didn't go to the treasury," Li Guanxuan laughed.

Hua Yongyang took out a jar of medicinal wine and asked, "Inside are medicines like tiger whip and other fiery yang herbs. Can Fellow Daoist Li handle it?"

Upon hearing this, Li Guanxuan expanded his divine sense slightly and found no danger around him. Only then did his primordial spirit transfer to the clone.

With the initial stage of Foundation Building, Hua Yongyang also understood the situation.

"Please."

Li Guanxuan brought his fingers together and pointed at the wine cup, smiling.

Hua Yongyang laughed and filled it up himself.

The two clinked their cups and drank heartily.

Seeing that Li Guanxuan's complexion was normal, it was clear that he had also drunk this fiery yang spirit wine before. Hua Yongyang laughed, "Fellow Daoist Li is indeed a kindred spirit, interesting, interesting!"

Soon, the two began to exchange their experiences for a few hours.

"Ah, I'm okay, lasted for two hours," Hua Yongyang modestly said.

For a male cultivator, lasting for two hours with one cultivation session was not an exaggeration. Li Guanxuan knew this and felt ashamed, saying, "I'm just average, my highest record is one hour."

Of course, Li Guanxuan wouldn't mention that he had once lasted for eight hours. If he did, Hua Yongyang would definitely dig deeper and ask why he was so powerful and ask him to teach him.

To avoid this trouble, Li Guanxuan simply downplayed his abilities.

"Fellow Daoist Li probably can't last for half an hour, well, much worse than me..." Hua Yongyang thought to himself, his smile becoming more and more pronounced. "Let's drink, drink! Hahaha..."

Hua Yongyang was truly happy today.

After all, dual cultivation at the Foundation Building stage was rare, and he looked down on those who only practiced Qi Refining.

To meet Li Guanxuan, who was also on the path of Foundation Building, Hua Yongyang felt like he had found a kindred spirit.

...

After drinking for about two hours, Hua Yongyang bid farewell and left.

After all, two grown men staying in a room all night was a bit inappropriate.

The next morning, Li Guanxuan came to the auction venue.

Drinking between men can enhance their relationship, so after seeing Li Guanxuan, Hua Yongyang came over and sat down next to him on a cushion.

"The first item today is a three-hundred-year-old spiritual wood, a yard-long fierce tooth wood, starting at four thousand low-grade spirit stones..."

"Five thousand spirit stones!"

Before the old man could finish speaking, someone directly made a bid.

Everyone looked over and saw that it was Bai Wei, the fairy of the Ink Water Pavilion.

Owed five chapters, totaling twenty-five thousand.
