Longevity: Starting as a Sect Servant-Chapter 382 - 246: Evil King’s Trail (Long - )

Chapter 382: Chapter 246: Evil King’s Trail (Long Chapter)

Shee Anqi coming here is perfectly normal.

After all, Coiled Dragon Commerce Association is renowned across the world. As a Nascent Soul level cultivator, there are many things that can only be found in such a place, so naturally, Shee Anqi and others would not pass it up.

Shee Anqi met Li An back in the Celestial Killer Mountain. She had once investigated Li An’s soul, but later also provided him many benefits and had once risked her life to help him in a dangerous situation. Therefore, Li An harbored neither deep affection nor a desire to kill her.

From now on, they were just strangers.

...

Under the guidance of the attendant, Li An entered the VIP lounge of the Coiled Dragon Commerce Association.

The entire venue was very magnificent, with the ground floor hall able to accommodate thousands of people. There were also many VIP boxes on the second floor, showing that Coiled Dragon Commerce Association had a lot of prestigious guests.

"Senior Gu, this is your private room. Is there anything you need? Would you like several spirit maidens to attend to you?"

The attendant smiled sweetly and asked.

The private room was very elegantly and quietly arranged, with steaming spirit tea on the table and spirit wine nearby, giving a very relaxing feeling. Moreover, they could even have a few beautiful spirit maidens to keep company? No wonder Coiled Dragon Commerce Association could thrive so much...

At the same time, Li An deeply felt the prestige of the Nascent Soul identity. Once you enter this rank, you are treated with honor wherever you go.

"No need."

"Alright, if you need anything, please feel free to ask. Xiaoxiao will be waiting outside the door to serve you."

Xiaoxiao gracefully exited the private room and closed the door.

Li An noticed that there was an array inside the private room to isolate Divine Sense detection.

He poured a cup of tea and tasted it indifferently, waiting for the auction to start.

Although the spirit tea entered his mouth, Li An quickly purified it.

Since coming into contact with poison techniques, Li An had become very cautious about anything entering his body from the outside, cultivating a habit of neither eating nor drinking external things.

In fact, this is also a habit of many Nascent Soul cultivators. Even if they eat or drink, it’s just for formality, and they will quickly purify it.

...

Soon, the hall below gradually filled with people.

The dazzling light emitted by spirit essence cast upon the stage at the front, and a woman in a tight-fitting qipao walked up. She exuded a charming allure, swaying with every three steps, and said, "Welcome everyone to..."

With the opening speech delivered, the auction began.

The initial items were some precious Rank Three items, including Spirit Medicine, Magical Artifacts, materials, etc. The competitors were mostly True Core cultivators from the ground floor hall, while Nascent Soul cultivators seldom participated.

After the warm-up, some Fourth Grade items finally came up. 𝗳𝚛𝚎𝚎𝘄𝕖𝕓𝕟𝕠𝚟𝚎𝕝.𝗰𝕠𝐦

Voices also rang out in the boxes on the second floor.

Li An focused on the Fourth Grade Spirit Medicine, and soon, a Fourth Grade Earth Yin Herb appeared, with a starting bid of one hundred top grade Spirit Stones. Li An immediately placed a bid:

"One hundred fifty!"

"One hundred eighty!"

Someone immediately bid higher, and the price quickly surpassed two hundred Spirit Stones.

Li An became more cautious in his bidding.

His budget was limited, totaling only nine hundred top grade Spirit Stones. He had to reserve at least six hundred Spirit Stones for array materials, so his budget for Spirit Medicine was very limited.

"Two hundred eighty!"

Someone was still bidding.

Generally, Fourth Grade Spirit Medicine could be bought in the market, but those auctioned by Coiled Dragon were of a particular trait. For example, this Earth Yin Herb was very beneficial to Nascent Souls, far superior to ordinary Spirit Medicine.

This kind of Spirit Medicine would have a greater probability of mutation if cultivated!

Li An ultimately gave up when someone bid over three hundred.

He was waiting. In the meantime, two more Spirit Medicines were auctioned, both taken by someone from a certain box on the second floor.

Li An simply stopped watching.

"The next auction item is a Rank Four Creation Jade rough piece. It is slightly inferior in quality due to being tainted by evil qi, but its quantity is large enough. Our association’s identification indicates it can be divided into materials for three to five Rank Four arrays, with a starting bid of five hundred Spirit Stones."

At this time, the auctioneer brought up an item, and Li An immediately focused on it.

Moreover, because it contained evil qi, ordinary people couldn’t wield it, so few were bidding for this collection.

Even if an evil cultivator reached Nascent Soul, they often had notoriously bad reputations and were reluctant to appear publicly. There likely weren’t any evil cultivators among the attendees, so naturally, no one asked about it.

"Five hundred one."

But to Li An’s surprise, the voice that won the three Fourth Grade Spirit Medicines spoke again!

Li An frowned slightly. What’s going on? Why does this person also want the things I desire?

Li An pondered for a moment and decided to bid: "Five hundred two."

The opposing side seemed surprised as well, "Five hundred three!"

The two bid back and forth cautiously, clearly unwilling to drive the price too high. Ultimately, Li An offered a relatively high price: six hundred fifty.

This price somewhat exceeded Li An’s budget. He gritted his teeth and bought it because, with his array skills, he could completely produce materials for five arrays from this rough piece.

Materials for five arrays would be worth at least over a thousand top grade Spirit Stones.

Still profitable!

The other side was silent for a long time before finally saying, "Fine, I can’t use this thing anyway, so I’ll let fellow Daoist have it－－"

With a decisive bang of the auction hammer, Li An acquired the Creation Jade rough piece!

Several other excellent items were auctioned afterward. Needless to say, Coiled Dragon Commerce Association earned its fame for some reason. Midway, Li An admired several treasures, but due to financial constraints, he could only give up.

Shee Anqi, however, successfully acquired two very fine magical treasures in two separate bids.
