Chapter 920 -406: Auction Turmoil, Nascent Soul Competition

Inside the private room, Feng Changfeng glanced straight at the venue, seemingly afraid Lin Chang’an would ask to borrow Spirit Stones from him.

It wasn’t that he was narrow-minded, but in matters concerning one’s path, many cultivators would lose face, and some even change drastically or take extreme actions.

“As far as I know, this time Daqian has brought a Tier Four Thunder Tribulation Wood, which aids in transcending tribulations and resisting heavenly thunder. I wonder if Master Xiao is interested.”

True Monarch Bingdie slightly furrowed her brow. If Master Xiao were to ask her for Spirit Stones, she certainly wouldn’t lend him that many.

After all, their relationship hadn’t reached that level yet, and she also had to consider the Sect factor; in the end, Lin Chang’an was only half a Sect person.

“Tier Four Thunder Tribulation Wood!”

Upon hearing that, Lin Chang’an was overjoyed. Although he had the ancient treasure, the Four-Symbols Dragon Scale Armor, and was adept in body refining, when facing the Nascent Soul Tribulation, one could never have too many resources.

More energy reserves would mean more strength to confront the impending Heart Demon Tribulation.

“I have here two Tier Three Upper Grade Yin Spirit Demon Pills, along with some Tier Three Demon Beast materials, and I’ll throw in some extra Spirit Stones as well, willing to exchange for this item.”

Seeing this kind-hearted True Monarch Bingdie assisting him, Lin Chang’an couldn’t tell if she was probing him or something else, but he pretended to be tempted.

Entirely in line with the behavior of a loose cultivator who lacked sufficient Nascent Soul spiritual objects, but was still willing to take a chance based on sheer courage.

At this moment, Lin Chang’an’s eyes were bloodshot; although he was trying hard to hide his emotions, True Monarch Bingdie secretly sighed internally.

It seemed this almost exhausted Master Xiao’s entire family wealth.

So many miscellaneous demon beast materials, and these Upper Grade Spirit Stones—included were two unexpected Tier Three Upper Grade Yin Spirit Beast King Demon Pills.

Yet considering Master Xiao had inherited the legacy of the Profound Soul Sect, he was likely a remnant descendant of a sect hiding in the Heaven-Reaching Mist Sea years ago.

“These materials should suffice. If not enough, I will help you make up the remainder.”

Subsequently, True Monarch Bingdie hesitated for a moment but ultimately decided to assist Lin Chang’an, naturally with the intention to draw him closer.

“Thank you, Elder.”

Lin Chang’an appeared grateful, but his heart was exhausted. Acting under the watchful eyes of Nascent Soul cultivators and being tested now and then—it would be a lie to say he wasn’t tired.

Given a choice, he truly wouldn’t want to join these Nascent Soul influences, but there was no solution.

True Monarch Bingdie also responded with a slight smile and a nod.

She had her own objectives for this visit and couldn’t possibly waste her Spirit Stones on anything else.

Subsequently, True Monarch Bingdie, right in front of Lin Chang’an, directly transmitted a message to Li Xianzhen next door from Daqian.

During their communication, Lin Chang’an, as a Core Formation cultivator, obediently listened in low profile.

“Fellow Daoist Li, I have five thousand-year Spirit Grass here. How about exchanging them for your Tier Four Thunder Tribulation Wood?”

“Friend Bingdie, you’re indeed a savvy trader. I heard this Xiao young friend came from the Abyssal Sea, so surely the materials obtained aren’t just these, right?”

In their exchange, Lin Chang’an couldn’t help but twitch his eye corners. Although he had known it earlier, for Fairy Bingdie to be this frank in front of him was truly candid.

The demon beast materials from the Demon Beast Abyss naturally had higher value, especially the Yin Spirit Demon Pill.

However, the treasures Fairy Bingdie presented were certainly worthy of his surplus value.

Lin Chang’an remained silent, playing the role of a small friend among the four great realms in the Immortal Cultivation Realm.

After all, as a dignified Core Formation Late Stage Great Cultivator, facing two Nascent Soul Early Stage cultivators, he couldn’t be considered a mere ant realm anymore, could he? Even if he were an ant, he’d be a mighty one.

“Hehe, our Daqian also has a princess of exceptional beauty and remarkable talent. I wonder if Xiao young friend is willing to befriend our Daqian?”

“Friend Li, you’re a shrewd planner indeed. I’ll add another bottle of Spirit Pills!”

“It’s a deal!”

Eventually, the two parties reached a deal, and Li Xianzhen from Daqian nodded in satisfaction. The Myriad Poison Sect lives up to having a Tier Four Alchemist who excels in rearing spirit insects.

In the sect, Spirit Grass, Spirit Fruits, and Elixirs are abundant, and transactions are conducted using these materials.

Lin Chang’an clearly observed all of this; under normal circumstances, when meeting on the borders of Nascent Soul influences, both parties wouldn’t trade these strategic resources.

Yet despite their dire situations, Daqian didn’t want the Myriad Poison Sect to truly decline; otherwise, Daqian would have to face the Sima and Shishan Valleys’ forces alone next.

True Monarch Bingdie, upon obtaining a Tier One Spirit Wood, couldn’t help but smile faintly; the value of demon beast materials was greater for the sect.

Especially this Tier Three Upper Grade Yin Spirit Demon Pill, a rare top-grade item and exactly what she needed, far surpassing the effects of water attributes.

“If I had known Master Xiao possessed a Tier Three Upper Grade Yin Spirit Demon Pill, I might have been tempted much earlier.”

When handing the Thunder Tribulation Wood to Lin Chang’an, Fairy Bingdie made a rare joke.

Seeing this, Lin Chang’an, as if realizing something, couldn’t help but nod and say:

“If the True Monarch desires, I do have a couple of friends who have also come to the Southern Domain seeking fortunes. I will certainly inquire for the True Monarch if we happen to meet in the future.”

“That would be wonderful!”

True Monarch Bingdie’s face immediately lit up with joy. She often suffered from the backlash of cold poisons, and the Yin attribute demon pill had a better effect, even allowing for an artifact that could be used long-term.

Lin Chang’an also secretly exhaled in relief. Although the process was mentally exhausting, always needing to be on guard for fear of accidentally revealing his background, it was undoubtedly worthwhile, at least earning considerable trust.
