Mortal Alchemy

A furnace of Body Tempering Pills can bring in a profit of thirty spirit stones!

This is much more profitable than Spirit Awareness Pills!

However, the success rate of Body Tempering Pills is not high. Currently, Chen Ping can only refine three bottles a month, and he needs to consume one bottle himself.

He didn't waste the Body Tempering Powder from failed attempts.

But an extra sixty spirit stones of profit a month is enough to make Chen Ping's heart race with excitement.

He was only risking selling Spirit Awareness Pills to Mu Lu妃 out of gratitude.

As for Body Tempering Pills, Chen Ping doesn't plan to sell them to Mu Lu妃, as it would easily increase the risk.

……

Half an hour later.

A hundred bottles of Body Tempering Pills were sold out.

The black-robed old man walked onto the stage again:

“The next auction item…”

A beautiful female cultivator held a tray with a fiery, bright stone.

Many people's eyes showed a look of doubt.

The black-robed old man introduced it:

“This item is called Fire Radiance Crystal Stone. It is a fire lure for a second-order spirit fire. Using this item, you can lure the spirit fire to appear and refine it.”

Chen Ping perked up and his eyes lit up: “A second-order spirit fire lure!”

He needed this exactly.

The black-robed old man introduced it, “The starting price for this item is three hundred spirit stones, with each bid increasing by no less than ten spirit stones.”

As soon as the voice fell.

“Three hundred and twenty spirit stones.”

“Three hundred and thirty spirit stones.”

Not many people were interested in this item. Only two or three people were bidding, and it was unknown whether they were plants arranged by the auction house.

Chen Ping's heart was pounding, eager to move, but he didn't immediately bid, afraid that the price would be pushed too high by the plants.

But no matter what, he had to win this fire lure stone.

A while later, the price reached four hundred spirit stones.

But the price was being called very slowly.

Seeing that the time was about right, Chen Ping also spoke: “Four hundred and twenty spirit stones.”

Several people raised their eyebrows slightly, secretly guessing Chen Ping's identity.

Only one person was left bidding against Chen Ping: “Four hundred and thirty spirit stones.”

Chen Ping frowned: “Four hundred and fifty spirit stones!”

“Hmph! Is a second-order fire lure worth raising the price so high? Four hundred and sixty spirit stones!”

The words were accompanied by the pressure of a Foundation Establishment cultivator spreading out.

Many people immediately looked gloatingly at Chen Ping's box.

Chen Ping's face turned pale: “A Foundation Establishment cultivator has made a move!”

The thought of giving up immediately flooded his mind, but this item was related to his path to Foundation Establishment, and he couldn't give up!

Chen Ping's ruthlessness suddenly rose up: “Four hundred and seventy spirit stones!”

This surprised many people. A Qi Refinement cultivator dared to compete with a Foundation Establishment cultivator for something. Wasn't this courting death?

But this Foundation Establishment cultivator was also disrespecting his elders, coming to snatch something from a Qi Refinement cultivator, which was really shameless.

The Foundation Establishment cultivator immediately withdrew his pressure.

The black-robed old man watched coldly and said:

“Four hundred and seventy first time! Four hundred and seventy second time! Four hundred and seventy third time! Congratulations to VIP in box four six two for winning this item!”

Chen Ping immediately left the box and came to the backstage to find the staff: “Can you be flexible? I can spend fifty more spirit stones to buy this item, but I need to get the item now and then have you send me out of the black market.”

Chen Ping didn't look at the subsequent auction items, nor did he browse the black market. He left the black market as soon as he got the item, his life was important!

A look of surprise appeared in the beautiful female cultivator's eyes: “Fellow Daoist is quite clever. Okay, come with me.”

The beautiful female cultivator led Chen Ping to the bottom of the auction house, where there were interconnected secret passages.

She took out the fiery red crystal from a box, and Chen Ping counted out five hundred and twenty spirit stones.

“Money clear, goods given.” The beautiful female cultivator handed the item to Chen Ping and then pointed out a path for him:

“This secret passage is fifty miles long. If you go out all the way, you can leave the black market.”

Chen Ping cupped his hands and said, “Thank you, fairy.”

Immediately, Chen Ping tore open a Swift Travel Talisman and rushed into the secret passage. His figure quickly disappeared.

A while later, a Foundation Establishment cultivator came down and found the beautiful female cultivator.

The Foundation Establishment aura spread out, pressing the Foundation Establishment female cultivator's delicate body to tremble and her face to turn pale: “Senior, what can I do for you?”

This Foundation Establishment cultivator was a middle-aged man with gloomy eyes: “Which secret passage did the kid who bid for the spirit fire lure leave from?”

The beautiful female cultivator raised her finger and pointed to a secret passage: “It's this secret passage.”

The middle-aged Foundation Establishment cultivator didn't say a word and flew into the secret passage at an extremely fast speed.

A look of contempt appeared in the beautiful female cultivator's eyes:

“Bullying others with power, truly extremely shameless.”

The secret passage that Chen Ping left from was exactly the opposite of the one she pointed to.

Chen Ping was on the right path, she had accepted fifty spirit stones from him, so naturally she pointed out a path to survival.

This Foundation Establishment cultivator not only didn't give money, but instead oppressed her. He was unpopular, so why should she help the Foundation Establishment cultivator?

……

Chen Ping left the secret passage, and the scenery in front of him suddenly opened up.

Without the slightest hesitation, he summoned his flying gourd and headed towards the territory of the Eastern Xuan Sect.

This time on the return journey, how dare he take the Domain Sky Flying Boat? Wouldn't that be throwing himself into the net?

This place was seven thousand miles away from the Mu family. He would fly three hundred miles a day and slowly return to the Mu family.

He could also refine pills and cultivate on the road, and the time would not be wasted.

He dispersed the formation on his robe, tore open a Thousand Faces Talisman, and changed his appearance.

After flying about a hundred miles.

“Fellow Daoist Tang, why didn't you take the Domain Sky Flying Boat to leave?”

In front, a voice that made Chen Ping's hair stand on end rang out.

A skinny man was holding a knife in his hand, staring at Chen Ping with indifferent eyes.

Chen Ping's figure suddenly stopped, his brow furrowed, as if facing a great enemy:

“Who are you?”

Why would he call himself Fellow Daoist Tang.

“Fellow Daoist Tang, don't you recognize this slave?”

Liu Ziyan's voice sounded behind Chen Ping.

Chen Ping felt a chill run down his spine, his face changed drastically: “Liu Ziyan, how is this possible?!”

He turned around and saw Liu Ziyan holding Gao Yuzhuo's corpse in one hand, while Zhou Ying was also covered in wounds, on the verge of death.

“You are highway robbers?”

Liu Ziyan used herself as bait, entered the game, and targeted them.

After separating and dispersing, she began to attack?

But what Chen Ping didn't understand was how Liu Ziyan locked onto his whereabouts and how she attacked Gao Yuzhuo and Zhou Ying.

Chen Ping's face was full of vigilance: “You made a heart demon oath with us, why weren't you devoured by the heart demon?”

Liu Ziyan's face was cold, and she sneered twice:

“This slave did make a heart demon oath, and cannot attack several fellow Daoists, but the person who killed them was not this slave.”

Chen Ping took a deep breath: “Good calculation.”

Ordinary cultivators, after making a heart demon oath, would lower their guard against the other party. Who would have expected that this Liu Ziyan had a partner as a highway robber.

Chen Ping asked in confusion: “There is still one thing I don't understand. I left from the secret passage of the auction house. How did you lock onto my figure and whereabouts?”

Liu Ziyan laughed loudly: “Anyway, Fellow Daoist Tang is going to die, so I might as well tell you.”

“There is a kind of mother-child Gu worm that can be placed on the body to lock onto the other party's position within three hundred miles.”

Chen Ping's face sank. When he first met Liu Ziyan, the other party rubbed against him with her foot, not only to seduce him, but also to put a Gu worm on him.
