Chapter 27: The Devil’s Way
Chapter 27 The Devil’s Way
The appearance of the Earth Fire Ape Demonic Beast Egg caused a clamor at the auction site, Second Stage Demonic Beast Bloodline, which meant that at least half of them might be Second Stage Demonic Beasts when they became adults, with a strength comparable to that of the Foundation Establishment Realm.
The Earth Fire Ape is a demonic beast that has a notorious reputation within the Cloud Sword Sect, and its habitat is called Earth Fire Canyon.
No one had ever successfully harnessed a demonic beast like the Earth Fire Ape.
Because the Earth Fire Ape has an extremely violent temperament, it can easily lose its mind and even kill its master.
However, it could not be denied that the Earth Fire Ape bloodline and strength was indeed powerful.
This demonic beast egg is presumably the handiwork of the Yu Family of Black Rock Mountain.
Perhaps the Yu Family wanted to try to use the demonic beast egg to cultivate the Earth Fire Ape from a young age, but it was just a pity that in the end, the plan must have failed, allowing this demonic beast egg to come out prematurely, with a lack of innate strength.
The lower hall cultivators were talking, some people tried to bid, but were not decisive.
Su Yu waited until the price came to five hundred lower grade spirit stones, and after no one raised the price, he said, “Five hundred and fifty.”
The person on the other side who called for the price was also from the small box on the second floor, and when he heard Su Yu’s bid, he did not choose to continue to follow.
Su Yu took the Earth Fire Ape Demon Beast Egg.
Su Yun watched him bid twice and said, “Looks like you haven’t saved up much money in the past two years.”
Su Yu respectfully said, “Thanks to Master’s teaching.”
Su Yun shook his head and lost his smile, saying, “Your talent for alchemy is very high, one of the best I’ve seen in all these years, even within the entire Cloud Sword Sect.”
“You just auctioned off a talisman master inheritance, it’s fine if you want to learn to refine talismans, but don’t delay refining pills.”
Su Yu even said, “Don’t worry master, it won’t happen.”
Su Yun nodded and his attention once again fell on the auction.
In addition to the Foundation Establishment Dan, the auction also had top-grade magic weapons, Su Yun and Su Yu looked at those top-grade magic weapons and were equally moved.
However, both of them did not participate in the bidding of the top-grade magic weapons.
Su Yu was not using top-grade magic weapons for the time being.
Su Yun’s target this time, was the Foundation Establishment Pill, not a top-grade magic weapon.
If he were to compete for a top-grade magic weapon again, it would be too big of a goal.
The penultimate item of the auction was two Foundation Building Dan, only when the auctioneer brought out the Foundation Building Dan, the crowd realized why this Foundation Building Dan appeared in the auction.
The auctioneer said, “These are two somewhat flawed Foundation Building Dan, normal Foundation Building Dan can increase the chance of breakthrough by 20%, but these two Foundation Building Dan are estimated to only increase by one and a half layers.”
“The Foundation Building Pills are auctioned separately, the first one has a starting price of two thousand lower grade spirit stones, and each call for an increase in price shall not be less than one hundred lower grade spirit stones.”
“Three thousand lower grade spirit stones!”
As soon as the words fell, a voice immediately came out from a box on the third floor, still priced at one thousand lower grade spirit stones at a time.
Wow.
All the Qi Refining Realm cultivators in the lower hall were in an uproar, looking at the Foundation Establishment Pill on the stage very red-eyed.
Especially some of the older Immortal Cultivators.
This was the Foundation Establishment Pill.
“Anyone else bid?” The auctioneer shouted excitedly.
“Three thousand five hundred lower grade spirit stones.”
A box on the second floor immediately called for a bid.
In the blink of an eye.
The first flawed Foundation Establishment Pill had already called the price up to four thousand six hundred lower grade spirit stones.
At this time, there were only two or three left holding out, and the bidding had become somewhat hesitant.
On the second floor, Su Yun said in a deep voice, “Five thousand pieces.”
This price caused the auction house to go quiet.
It was the highest price since this auction had been conducted, causing the eyes of the ordinary participants below to widen.
The man on the third floor hesitated for a long time and added a hundred lower grade spirit stones when the auctioneer was about to place his hammer. But immediately after Su Yun added another hundred, five thousand two hundred lower grade spirit stones.
Seeing Su Yun’s decisiveness, that person decisively gave up.
Su Yun took the first Foundation Building Dan.
Su Yun and Su Yu did not participate in the rest of the auction, left the box to find the merchant bank’s deacon, handed over the spirit stones, and immediately left with their things.
Only before the two of them returned to the Dan Pavilion, a furious cry came from the direction of Yun Shan Merchant Guild, “Unbridled!”
“Boom!”
A great battle movement came from the area.
“Heh, just with you two little guys you want to stop me?” A domineering but extremely cold and uncomfortable voice came out.
Su Yun’s face changed as he turned his head to look down and hurriedly said, “Quickly go, it’s the Foundation Establishment Realm!”
Su Yu was also startled.
There was a Foundation Establishment Realm making a move against the Cloud Mountain Merchant Company, it was fortunate that they had left there early, or else they would have been caught in the middle of it.
The two of them quickly rushed back towards the Dan Pavilion, the great formations of the marketplace had all been activated, but the battle over there was still violent, and it seemed that the great formations of the marketplace were unable to suppress the other side as well.
At the moment when the two were approaching the Dan Pavilion, suddenly a cold light appeared, pointing straight at Su Yun’s head.
Clang!
Golden light erupted from Su Yun’s body, and a mid-grade defense magic weapon was activated, fending off that attacking magic weapon.
“Hmph, leave the Foundation Building Dan behind!” A figure wearing a cloak and a mask capable of concealing divine sense on his head rushed out.
With that aura, it was clearly an Immortal Cultivator at the ninth level of the Qi Refining Realm.
This person specialized in metallic spells, and as soon as he appeared various spells attacked Su Yun, pressuring him to retreat back and forth.
But the next moment, this person’s face changed.
“Teng!”
Two talismans were thrown out, and monstrous flames melted his attack like a dragon, pouncing towards him.
This power, it was at least a Fine First Grade Upper Grade Fire Attribute Attack Talisman.
The man was a bit lumbered by the two flame augers and retreated several dozen feet in a row.
Just as the flaming augur dragons receded and the man was about to attack towards Su Yun again, his pupils suddenly shrunk and he cursed grass.
Su Yun’s face was chilly, his hands cupped a dozen or so fire attribute attack talismans with extremely strong breaths, his eyes were full of killing intent, and he stared at him coldly, “Come.”
That person’s face went black: “…”
Whoosh!
Without the slightest hesitation, the man turned around and ran.
Su Yu watched this battle from the side, especially when Master Su Yun pinched a dozen talismans and looked at the other party with a cold smile, letting the other party continue, the feeling was really hard to describe.
This was also too damn – in line with the Alchemist’s fighting style.
True alchemists were actually not very short of money.
In addition to using medicine against the enemy, what with talismans, organ puppets, formations, and so on, they could all be means for alchemists.
Alchemists might not be strong in their own right, but against any enemy, they were not half-hearted.
Su Yun took back the talisman in his hand and said in a domineering and bland manner, “Go, let’s go back.”
Returning to the Dan Pavilion, Su Yun activated the defense formation of the Dan Pavilion.
The big battle outside lasted not long before it ended, because next to it could be the Cloud Sword Sect, causing trouble in the Cloud Mountain Marketplace, which had already seriously provoked the Cloud Sword Sect.
Only that the person who made the move was really strong, in the two Cloud Sword Sect Foundation Establishment Realm powerhouses that were guarding the marketplace to join hands as well as under the suppression of the formation, they still escaped.
Afterwards, there was news that the last auction item of the Cloud Mountain Merchant Guild Auction was rumored to be a crippled top-grade magic weapon, the Heavenly Luo Umbrella.
And the person who made the move was named Blood Sword Daoist, late Foundation realm cultivation, a devil who was wanted by the Great Moon Palace, acting ferociously and rampantly.
That crippled top-grade magic weapon, the Heavenly Luo Umbrella, was said to have been successfully snatched by him.
