Outside the auction house of the Spiritual Crane Immortal Sect, Flaming Blade Duan River lightly waved his hand. A cloud suddenly appeared under his and Second Prince Chang Li's feet. In the next moment, the two of them floated up and flew towards the distance.

However, what they did not notice was that at this moment, two phantom red lights had already passed through the thick walls of the auction house and fallen upon their bodies.

"Uncle Master, is that Medicine Immortal Qu Wan'Er from the Spiritual Crane Immortal Sect very powerful?" Chang Li asked curiously.

Flaming Blade Duan River's face showed a trace of hatred. "We're both at Late Stage Third Grade cultivation. Her strength should be roughly the same as mine. However, the Spiritual Crane Immortal Sect has extremely few immortal artifacts. They've officially announced they only have one! Even if they have a few more, they might not necessarily be with Medicine Immortal Qu Wan'Er. Without an immortal artifact, she's definitely not my match!"

Chang Li frowned. "Then why didn't Uncle Master just take down that Lii Xiaolan earlier!"

Flaming Blade Duan River squinted his eyes. "As one of the two strongest alchemists in the Western Region of the Central State, Medicine Immortal Qu Wan'Er naturally holds a status different from other Earth Immortals. This isn't just because she's only at the Late Stage Third Grade. Even if she were an Initial Tier Earth Immortal, her alchemy skills alone could earn her a status comparable to a Supreme Elder of a sect. She would hold a very high status even in a major immortal sect of the Central Divine Dynasty! Such a person, unless she can be quietly eliminated, if you offend her, I'm afraid that with just one word from her, those cultivators who want her to refine the Immortal Ascension Treasure Pill would be willing to do anything for her like they were on steroids! I can kill other disciples of the Spiritual Crane Immortal Sect, I can deal with Spiritual Crane Fairy Qu Qiao'Er, but if I deal with the disciple of Medicine Immortal Qu Wan'Er, the future troubles will be countless!"

"But if we just let this go, my heart will be extremely uneasy! It's not about my face, but they even dare to not give face to Uncle Master!" Chang Li said.

Flaming Blade Duan River's eyes showed a trace of hatred. "Don't worry, this matter will not end so easily! Hmph, there are many ways to deal with a person. As Flaming Blade, I have even more ways to kill someone!"

Upon hearing this, Chang Li's expression froze. "Uncle Master, since Spiritual Crane Fairy Qu Qiao'Er said that this Lii Xiaolan has extremely strong alchemy talent, possibly inheriting Qu Wan'Er's alchemy techniques, it would be a pity to kill her directly. Why don't we find a way to capture her instead? If I can join the Spiritual Crane Immortal Sect this time, with me as an insider, there will be plenty of opportunities to deal with this Lii Xiaolan. Hmph, she is just a Ninth-Layer Perfection cultivator; it will be absolutely easy!"

Upon hearing this, Flaming Blade Duan River couldn't help but scrutinize Chang Li, then he laughed. "Good, good! We cultivators should act according to our true nature! Lii Xiaolan has extremely strong alchemy talent; even the always lofty Medicine Immortal Qu Wan'Er values her so highly... Such a talent must naturally be obtained. We'll have her refine pills and concoct medicines for our Fire Spirit Sect!"

At this point, he looked towards the center of the giant Immortal City. In the sky there, dozens of Immortal Mountains floated, surrounded by wisps of immortal mist, making them look full of spiritual aura!

"We have more than one person secretly infiltrating the Spiritual Crane Immortal Sect as disciples. Lii Xiaolan is definitely to be dealt with, but in the future, the Fire Spirit Sect's target is far more than just Lii Xiaolan! Under each of the thirty-two peaks of the Spiritual Crane Immortal Sect lies a spirit vein, all places abundant with Immortal Yuan. How can such spiritually rich lands be occupied by a weak sect like the Spiritual Crane Immortal Sect for long? Sooner or later, all these treasure lands will belong to the Fire Spirit Sect!"

Chang Li lightly played with the Initial Tier Demon King Earth Dragon coiling around his hand. "Good! To vent Uncle Master's anger, and to allow the Fire Spirit Sect to own the thirty-two spirit veins in the future, I, Chang Li, will do my utmost. I will capture the Sixth Celestial Vein, become a core disciple of the Spiritual Crane Immortal Sect, and then provide various information for Uncle Master!"

After saying this, he and Flaming Blade Duan River exchanged a glance and both smiled sinisterly.

「More than an hour later,」

The auction of the Spiritual Crane Immortal Sect ended.

Spiritual Crane Fairy Qu Qiao'Er, along with Qu Qingling and Qu Qingfeng, went to the back of the auction venue to handle various auction matters, while Lin Xuankong and Lii Xiaolan sat in a private room, looking at the more than fourteen hundred Demon Pearls on the table.

Without the disruptive Flaming Blade Duan River and that Chang Li causing trouble, Lin Xuankong's bidding went quite smoothly. After spending nearly four thousand Profound Truth Jades, he swept up all the Demon Pearls in this auction, buying every single one.

Over four thousand Profound Truth Jades... Even a nation like the Great Xia Dynasty, by mustering the strength of the entire dynasty, couldn't gather so many!

However, spending over four thousand Profound Truth Jades was now something that posed no pressure at all for Lin Xuankong. After auctioning off all ten batches of Dharma-tier Gui Ling Elixirs, the amount of Grade-Entering Profound Truth Jade he stood to obtain reached an extremely astonishing sum: a full ninety thousand pieces!

In other words, not counting other more precious resources, just one hundred Dharma-tier Gui Ling Elixirs brought Lin Xuankong an amount of Profound Truth Jade equivalent to the foundation of dozens of Great Xia Dynasties!

This astonishing number of Grade-Entering Profound Truth Jade was far beyond the wealth of an Initial Tier Earth Immortal. Indeed, it surpassed the fortunes of not just Initial Tier Earth Immortals, but even those of First-, Second-, and Third-Grade Earth Immortals! After all, just over an hour ago, many Initial Tier and First-Grade Earth Immortals had to pool their resources to bid for the Dharma-tier Gui Ling Elixirs!
