In the largest building in Baolinxian City, the nearby sect's once-in-a-decade auction is in progress. There is no lively and noisy scene. Only the auction items come on stage one by one, from different boxes.
The cold voice came out.
The sound in the box cannot be heard, and the monks in the hall will also choose sound transmission when chatting, so only the sound of bidding can be heard in the hall, and it runs through the entire auction hall. There is not a trace of noise. Combined with the amplification of the box.
With the sound array method, the entire auction looks particularly solemn.
None of the sect monks participating in the auction could have imagined that in one of the boxes, in another space, something difficult for them to accept was happening: a wild cultivator outside the sect was bullying him.
He is a sect’s golden elixir level monk.
Zhou Tai first asked a seemingly unrelated question, more out of curiosity than concern.
"How come you haven't even reached the ninth level of the Golden Core after more than a hundred years?" It has been more than a hundred years since the last time the two met. At that time, Yang Xuan was already at the Golden Core level, but now he is only at the seventh level?
Either this female cultivator seldom practices, or she doesn't have any resources.
Hearing this, Yang Xuan was stunned for a moment, and then she seriously replied that she was just an ordinary disciple of the sect. She was extremely lucky to enter the golden elixir, and the sect did not have the resources to support her during the golden elixir stage.
This answer was somewhat beyond Zhou Tai's expectation. It would be a joke if the sect could not provide any training resources for the Golden Elixir stage. The cultivation of souls after the Golden Elixir stage is also extremely important. Useful elixirs for the Golden Elixir stage.
, the effect on high-level monks has become very weak. It can only be said that the monks above have squeezed it a bit hard.
At the same time, Zhou Tai also thought that it was impossible for Yunxia Sect to have no resources for all the golden elixirs, so he asked again: "There are no golden elixirs?"
"No, there are monks from the five major families that have contributed the most to the sect, and the other families take turns in different levels. For example, our Yang family, there are monks who will join the sect in this century, but there will be no monks who will join the sect in the next century..."
It was obvious that Yang Xuan was one of the unlucky ones. There was no emotion in her answer. Zhou Tai couldn't tell if she had any complaints. If she said she had no complaints at all, he wouldn't believe it.
"Then after you reach the ninth level of the Golden Core, will the sect provide you with the resources to advance to the Nascent Soul?" To advance to the Nascent Soul, the main thing is to need the Soul Transformation Pill. Zhou Tai asked this question naturally.
I don't know why I always ask myself questions about cultivation. Yang Xuan shook his head first, and then replied: "You have to accumulate the spiritual grass of the Infant Transformation Pill yourself."
After hearing such an answer, Zhou Tai realized that the female cultivator at his feet, although she was a sect cultivator, was also at the bottom of the class. It was really hard for her to successfully advance to Jindan. If there were no resources to assist, it means that the more than 100
She has basically been practicing hard for the past few years, otherwise it would be impossible to reach the seventh level of the golden elixir. Although Zhou Tai knew in his heart that he could not believe everything the other party said, but based on the actual situation, this was very likely to be true.
"It doesn't matter if all the monks are promoted to Yuanying?" If the female cultivator dares to say yes to this question, Zhou Tai will directly let her look good, because it is impossible for the sect, unless the sect wants to cut off the inheritance.
, because a large amount of resources are controlled by the sect, and the sect is ruthless. With the current conditions in the world of immortality, it is difficult for the monks under the sect to develop. It is said that some monks are selected, squeezed, and let them search for external resources as much as possible.
It is very possible. If the entire sect is like this, then this sect can be said to be almost bankrupt and scattered.
"How could it be!" Yang Xuan's emotionless words sounded again, and then he explained: "For some monks, the sect will provide most of the resources, and you only need to provide a small share, while some have to rely entirely on themselves."
It's obvious that she is the kind of person who relies entirely on herself.
"Although the sect will distribute resources such as the Infant Transformation Pill for free, they are distributed directly to the family in proportion and are arranged by the family." In order to perform better, Yang Xuan continued to add.
"When you reach the ninth level of the Golden Core, won't your family help you? There won't be many monks in your family who are at the ninth level of the Golden Core, right?" Zhou Tai had already guessed the answer in his heart, but Zhou Tai still asked heartbreakingly.
.
"The Infant Transformation Pill that the family will receive from the sect next time has been determined to be exchanged with other sect families for other resources for cultivating immortals, so as to cultivate a new generation of family monks supported by the sect's resources."
The tone of her words still hasn't changed at all. This does not mean that she fully accepts it in her heart. It can only be said that as a cultivator, she can control her emotions very well about some things. Or she has thought about this problem countless times and has been able to do it long ago.
My heart felt like water had stopped flowing.
Zhou Tai still accepted this answer. Immortal cultivators also have distinctions between close relatives and concubines, and the Nascent Soul stage is not an indispensable existence. They will not choose who is the most promising. This has been the case since ancient times.
"Let me see how many resources you have accumulated in your storage bag? Take them all out." After speaking, Yang Xuan just hesitated for a moment and poured out everything in his storage bag.
Although a lot of things were poured out, there was nothing valuable, and there was nothing useful for the Golden Core stage. Except for a few spiritual weapons, there was not even a magic weapon that should be available at the Golden Core stage.
There are only a dozen middle-grade spiritual stones in the stone. Rather than saying this is a storage bag for a golden elixir monk, it is more like a storage list for the foundation-building period.
Although the pupil technique can tell that the other party has no other storage equipment, in theory, you should pretend to touch the other party again. It is not only an insult, but also can arouse the other party's dissatisfaction with your own sect.
, if it can arouse Yang Xuan's dissatisfaction, it can be said to be very beneficial to Zhou Tai.
The figure that looked so smooth, but there was a slight exertion of one finger on it, indicating that it was not as calm as it appeared. Whether it was because he was ashamed because he had too little possessions, or he was dissatisfied because he thought he would be robbed, around him
From Tai's point of view, this means that the other person is no longer as well-behaved as he once was.
Seeing how he had changed from being submissive at the beginning to pretending to be strong now, Zhou Tai gave up the idea of searching her body. After all, to him, Yang Xuan was barely one of the few old acquaintances he knew.
There may be greater oppression to be exerted on the other party, but this is just unnecessary.
"If you get enough spiritual grass to refine the Infant Transformation Pill, will the sect's alchemist help you refine it! How much will you charge after the pill is completed?" Zhou Tai asked the question he was most concerned about.
This time the answer was more detailed, but after listening to it, Zhou Tai could only lament that the current sects are really good at playing. Although the Baby Transformation Pill was precious ten thousand years ago, it was not scarce. The sects all had their own medicine fields.
When some sects were established, they chose places where some elixirs grew. Although some elixirs that require relatively high growth environment are only owned by a few sects, there are always sects that have elixirs that are good at cultivating each other.
They can complement each other. Although various elixirs could be found outside the sect thousands of years ago, most of the elixirs needed by the monks were obtained from within the sect. Therefore, now the Infant Transformation Pill is because of its spiritual power.
The medicine was rare and extremely scarce, Zhou Tai didn't believe it.
But including Ji Jingxin of the Liuyun Sect, they once had to collect several main ingredients of the Yinghua Pill themselves. It can only be said that the sect made the Yinghua Pill artificially scarce. How the Liuyun Sect did it, Zhou Tai didn't know
, he guessed that either Ji Jingxin consumed too much of the sect family’s resources, or the other party wanted some resources unique to Liuyun Sect, because if the monks sent out did not gain anything, as long as the bid was enough, they would definitely be able to get it from other sources.
Obtained from the sect's trade.
As for how the Yunxia Sect works, he now knows: the Jindan monks gather together the spiritual grass to refine the Infant Transformation Pill, and the sect's alchemist is responsible for refining it. Although the chance of failure is very low, if it fails, provide the spiritual grass.
The monk who has no choice but to accept his fate; if successful, the monk will receive the previous Infant Transformation Pill and store the newly refined Infant Transformation Pill, because the new pill can be stored longer. Gu Ji
No matter how many elixirs are successfully refined from the spiritual grass provided, only one will be given, and you are strictly prohibited from leaving the sect before the elixir is used. If you become a Yuanying monk and want the sect to refine the elixir, the elixir will be ready.
After that, it cannot be received and can only be used by designated sect members.
The only humane thing is that if there are two kinds of elixirs for refining elixirs, it is okay if there are many other types of elixirs.
After hearing these answers, Zhou Tai knew that even if Yang Xuan got the Infant Transformation Pill and he snatched it from the other party, there would only be one, which was not enough for him and Yao Yu. Moreover, there was only one Infant Transformation Pill, so to speak.
If Yang Xuan wants to take away the hope of his path to immortality, the other party may fight tooth and nail.
Although time has not passed long, Zhou Tai does not intend to spend too much time here. He has thought about various possible situations before and made some preparations. Now it seems that he still needs to plant a slave for Yang Xuan.
Imprinting will do, but it's not easy.
Yang Xuan wore a hood on her head, and her specific expression could not be seen, but in the next moment, Zhou Tai took off the other person's hood and put his hand on her head.
Yang Xuan, who was originally very docile, suddenly stiffened, and then raised his head angrily. Although his consciousness was suppressed and he could not see the expression under the mask in the dark surroundings, there was no shortage of jade and stone in Yang Xuan's eyes.
courage.
It seems that as long as Zhou Tai dares to move more, she will dare to explode the golden elixir.
It's not that Yang Xuan suddenly became brave, but he put his hand on other monks' heads. Generally, in addition to searching for souls, he would plant a mark of slavery. The former would die directly, while the latter would be worse off than death. As long as he doesn't have the courage to die, he will be forever trapped.
It's easy for the other party to handle it.
You knew it was like this! Zhou Tai was not surprised at all when this happened. No monk wanted to be enslaved, but few monks were willing to enslave other monks.
The enslavement mark is to plant a large amount of one's own soul into the opponent's soul consciousness sea. Although if successful, it can not only make the opponent's life worse than death, but also control the opponent's life and death. However, this is based on the situation where the enslaved person is afraid of death. If
If the enslaved person self-destructs, the monk who bears the mark of slavery will also be greatly affected.
And the most difficult thing is the process of planting the mark of slavery. First, the enslaved person must be awake and cooperate. If they are in a coma or other dementia state, they will fight back independently when faced with the invasion of external spirits. The result is that either the enslavement fails or the enslaved person fails.
Become an idiot.
"It's not soul searching, it's slavery, and it's only temporary. Do you want Nascent Soul? I can help you too!" When the situation entered a stalemate, Zhou Tai began to break the deadlock.
"No!" In response, Yang Xuan shook her head firmly: "Either you kill me or let me go. I can obey the rest, but slavery is not an option. I would rather die." She knew that she was afraid of death, but she was even more afraid of death.
Knowing that once enslaved, life may be worse than death.
"Actually, I don't want to bully you like this, but I have no choice. If I don't use some means on you, I won't worry. I can guarantee that if my goal is achieved, I will let you go and cancel your slavery."
The words were nice, but Yang Xuan remained unmoved and her eyes were very stubborn.
"What do you think this is?" While talking, Zhou Tai took out a purple grass, which is something that female cultivators like very much. Although Yang Xuan looks the same as before, Zhou Tai
I can still feel that the other person has become more mature.
After the purple grass appeared, Yang Xuan's eyes moved a little, but they didn't change much.
"What are the main herbs used by your sect to refine the Infant Transformation Pill?" Zhou Tai asked another question. It is also the Infant Transformation Pill, but there are still some differences between each sect.
After a moment of silence, Yang Xuan still chose to answer: "Ying Chi Flower, Light Soul Grass..."
When she finished speaking, Zhou Tai took out most of them and said: "I'll give these to you. I'll help you with the bad ones in the future, so that you can have hope of Nascent Soul."
But Yang Xuan was unmoved. Not to mention that slavery was likely to be miserable, but it was not impossible to take back the given things. Immortal cultivators were more deceitful and deceitful.
Zhou Tai did not continue talking, but directly started to take action, which went smoothly at first. This does not mean that Yang Xuan chose to compromise, but that only when the slavery is more than half done, and the souls enter the other party's sea of consciousness in large numbers, can Zhou Tai
The most damaging moment.
"If you choose to self-destruct, you will sacrifice your own life, and at most you will only seriously injure me. Why not bet once? If I lied to you, it would not be too late to commit suicide. If I did not lie to you, Yuan Ying can be expected!"
Zhou Tai said this in a particularly sincere tone to Yang Xuan's lifeless eyes. He didn't want to do this, but time was tight and the tasks were heavy, and there was no better way.
"What's more, you have never lied to me before, and I have never lied to you!"
After saying this, Yang Xuan replied: "But you came to arrest me again!"
"It's just a coincidence!" Zhou Tai said this, but he didn't know that Yang Xuan, who had not left the clan for more than a hundred years, didn't believe it at all.
Just like this, he said comforting words with his mouth, but kept his hands on his hands, and at the same time, he was ready for the other party to resist.
But until the final mark of slavery was completed, Yang Xuan did not make any move to resist. It was not that she believed Zhou Tai's words, but that although she had hesitation, anger, unwillingness and other emotions in her heart, she could not stop herself from self-destruction.
