Confronted with Lu Yang’s practiced framing, Meng Jingzhou retorted disdainfully, “What do you mean ‘I scared them off? Didn’t you hear them say that you’ 11 be entangled with an Immortal in causality.”

“Perhaps you’ve done something that angers both humans and gods, making the Immortal joint forces to suppress you!”

Lu Yang waved his hand, “Impossible, I always know what I’m doing. I would never do something so outrageous. Luo Bo must be making up an excuse.”

The two were quick to lay blame on each other, refusing to admit it was their own problem.

Man Gu opens his mouth, wanting to suggest if it’s potentially both of their faults, but in the end, he didn’t say it.

After a few days of interaction, Lan Ting gradually became familiar with Lu Yang and Meng Jingzhou’s speaking style. Listening to their arguments, he simply brushed it off.

“Look, there’s the Land Money Trade Association ahead, let’s go and have a look!”

At the entrance of the Land Money Trade Association, there was a chubby piglet with a coin in his hand, the classic mascot of the association.

Lu Yang had long heard of the Land Money Trade Association’s reputation and wanted to take a look.

The interior decoration of the association was understated, exuding taste everywhere, entirely different from those associations that flaunt their wealth after sudden riches.

The Land Money Trade Association didn’t need to show off, its name alone said it all.

In Central Continent, no one doesn’t know the name of the top association under the heaven.

The array of merchandise within the association left Man Gu dazzled. There were elixirs carefully refined by masters, spirit treasures painstakingly forged by craftsmen, heavenly and earthly treasures dug from perilous places, talismans, and array methods evolving from simplicity to complexity…

Looking at the marked prices, Man Gu felt like a destitute who couldn’t afford anything.

Man Gu noticed Meng Jingzhou and Lan Ting having a casual look around, strolling leisurely, unworried about prices – this he could understand.

But he was surprised to see that Brother Lu, who was worth about the same as him, also seemed unconcerned about prices.

Man Gu quietly asked, “Brother Lu, the things here are so expensive, I can’t afford them.”

Of course, Man Gu couldn’t possibly not afford anything, he was referring to those impressive items suitable for Foundation Establishment Stage that he couldn’t afford.

Lu Yang looked at Man Gu in surprise, “Buy? Why would you buy anything here? Look at these elixirs and magic artifacts, they might seem fancy and expensive, but actually, they’re just ornaments. In terms of practicality, can they compare to the Sect’s products?”

Man Gu nodded, that was true, in terms of value for money, the Sect’s fried dough stick was cheap, substantial and chewy. More than a month had passed, and the fried dough stick that Brother Lu gave to Brother Meng was still only half-eaten.

“And besides, as for not having money, wouldn’t we go earn some? With our status, we could make money from any purchase. Watch this, I’ll show you.”

Having said that, Lu Yang approached a nearby server, “Excuse me, do you accept magic skills here?”

The server politely replied, “Yes, sir, we do. However, we only collect the ones not available in the association. We have most of the common magic skills here. Would you like to sell a magic skill?”

Lu Yang nodded, “I have a transformation technique here that allows an attack during transformation. It’s my family’s exclusive secret.”

The server was quite surprised. He had worked here for ten years and never heard of such a transformation technique.

“This way, please. There is an auction going on today, and our appraisal master Yang Xuanling is present. We can ask him to appraise the value of your transformation technique.”

The four of them were lead to a room. Inside, a bespectacled old man engrossed in reading. His appearance suggested a knowledgeable and worldly person – presumably, this was Yang Xuanling.

The server whispered a few words in Yang Xuanling’s ear.

“Oh? There is such a magic skill? I understand. You may go.”

“Yes, sir.” The server respectfully retreated from the room.

“You fellows, I heard you’ve got Transformation Technique, which allows a simultaneous attack?”

“Yes.” Lu Yang took out his “Lu’s Imitation Fist.”

Yang Xuanling paused for a moment, “… If my eyes are not deceiving me, doesn’t that book say ‘Imitation Fist’?”

Lu Yang stepped forward, crossed off the words “Imitation Fist” on the cover, and wrote “Transformation Technique.”

“Nowit is ‘TransformationTechnique.’

Yang Xuanling has met his first person who named things on a whim. After a long time in this line, he indeed met all kinds of people.

Yang Xuanling slowly turned the pages, analyzing each word and sentence, his voice brimming with anger, “This is nothing more than the Imitation Fist!”

” How is that possible?” Lu Yang seemed quite surprised,” This is clearly a Transformation Technique, watch me demonstrate it for you!”

Lu Yang performed a set of Imitation Fist techniques on the spot, transforming from Man Gu into Meng Jingzhou, then into a Tiger Demon. His display was majestic and powerful, appearing quite impressive.

Yang Xuanling stared at him for a long time with wide eyes, completely unable to understand how Lu Yang was transforming.

What was performed was indeed the Imitation Fist, the process was exactly the same as what was written in the book, and the opponent had not stealthily used any other magic skills.

How much should it be priced at?

Yang Xuanling stroked his beard, a look of complete comprehension on his face: “Your Transformation Technique is quite interesting, it would be a waste to sell it as a regular item. How about taking this Transformation Technique to be auctioned? There is an auction happening soon.”

“Okay.”

At the auction site, Lu Yang ran into an old acquaintance.

It was Chi Xulong, who had cultivated the Spitting Stone Skill.

Chi Xulong did not disguise himself, constantly flaunting as per his introduction, not liking disguises.

Given his Cultivation Level, he would be well known throughout Yanjiang County, no need for disguise indeed.

A person dressed in a black robe sat next to Chi Xulong, and Lu Yang guessed that it was Shen Jinyi, the assassin.

Lu Yang took the initiative to sit next to Chi Xulong. Chi Xulong sneered with disdain at the sight of the juvenile tofu mask on Lu Yang’s face.

For some reason, he felt very angry when he saw Lu Yang.

The well-dressed auctioneer stepped onto the stage. He looked professionally trained, his voice loud and clear without the use of his Cultivation Level, and everyone in the venue could hear him clearly.

“Good afternoon, everyone, thank you for coming. Without further ado, let’s get started.”

“The first item for auction today is three Foundation Establishment Elixirs.”

As soon as these words were spoken, the entire venue buzzed with excitement. No one expected such a heavyweight item to be up for auction first.

𝘧𝓇ℯ𝑒𝓌𝑒𝑏𝓃𝘰𝘷𝘦𝘭.𝒸ℴ𝓂

Most of the people participating in the auction were in the middle and late stages of their Qi Refinement, the early Qi Refinement stage wouldn’t participate knowing their financial limitations.

Even cultivators at the Foundation Establishment Stage were tempted. Who didn’t have a junior at the Qi Refinement stage back home?

Only Lu Yang didn’t.

He thought about it and realized that among the people he knew, his Cultivation Level was the lowest.

When the ancient ancestors first paved the way for cultivation, they naturally didn’t rely on external help and built their own foundations. But it had a significant risk, countless people died during the Foundation Establishment process.

Later, someone came up with a Foundation Establishment Elixir that could increase the efficiency of Foundation Establishment; it not only improves the success rate but also ensures that there are no hidden dangers or setbacks in cultivation after a failed attempt.

Even Lan Ting, a disciple of Fairy Palace, had also used the Foundation Establishment Elixir during her Foundation Establishment.

She asked via voice transmission: “Did you use the Foundation Establishment Elixir during your Foundation Establishment?”

Lu Yang shook his head and responded: “Our understanding of the use of elixirs is relatively advanced. During the Foundation Establishment, we directly ingest the raw materials of the Foundation Establishment Elixir, use our body as a cauldron to refine the raw materials, and allow the medicinal effects to thoroughly dissolve in the meridians.”

“Through research, it was found that this method has the highest efficiency in absorbing the medicinal effects.”

“To arrive at this conclusion, the Seventh Elder of Elixir Cauldron Peak went through foundation establishment a hundred times during his youth. The data is absolutely reliable.”

“Back then, the Seventh Elder even won the title of ‘Strongest Foundation Establishment Stage’. However, because the foundation was too solid, the process of forming the golden core was exceptionally painful, almost like having gallstones.”

Lan Ting:

As the two spoke, the three Foundation Establishment Elixirs were already auctioned off.

“The next item up for auction is a book on the Transformation Technique.” The auctioneer took out the book that Lu Yang had just put up for auction.

Lu Yang exclaimed softly, and spoke in a voice just loud enough for Chi Xulong to hear: “Could this be the book that is rumored to hide…”

Chi Xulong, who originally didn’t take much interest in the book, suddenly became keen.
