Two thousand Spirit Stones!

After this number was announced, everyone looked at each other in silence. Although, as cultivators in the Core Formation Stage, everyone could certainly bring out this number, however, it was only an Earth Tier Mid-level Talisman. No matter from which aspect, it seemed a little too expensive.

No was willing to be the scapegoat, not to mention that the exchange had just begun. The later the things were, the more precious they were, so the cultivators were clinging to their wallets tightly, and were reluctant to buy it easily.

As the head of this generation, Daoist Master Ku Mu was very calm, and there was no disappointment on his face. He reached out and the empty wooden box flew back to his hand. He was about to put the talisman in the box.

“Senior, can you show the talisman to me?”

A clear voice rang into his ear, and the Daoist Master looked up and saw an ordinary young man coming over and walking steadily. However, his cultivation base was only at the Foundation Establishment Initial Stage.

He was a little surprised, but soon he regained his normal expression. He smiled faintly and threw the talisman in the air.

After leaving his hand, it turned into a green ray of light and flew into Lin Xuan’s palm.

Holding it in his hand, Lin Xuan swept it with his Spiritual Sense. This thing was quite different from a Human Tier Talisman. It was soft to the touch, and it was obviously made from the skin and fur of some amazing creature.

Lin Xuan was not surprised at all. Although it was his first time coming into contact with an Earth Tier Talisman, he already knew a lot about them. The power of a talisman at the Earth Tier was extraordinary, and so it naturally contained much more Spiritual Qi. Therefore, ordinary talisman papers could not bear these Magic Spells at all, so they had to use the hides of Spirit Beasts as their materials.

After contemplating for a little while, Lin Xuan took a storage bag from his waist and handed it to the Daoist Master: “Senior, I want this talisman.”

“Well, put it away.”

Lin Xuan returned to the remote corner.

“Congratulations Big Brother!” Tian Xiaojian raised his hand to congratulate.

“Haha, we may not be able to afford the following things. I just didn’t want to return empty-handed,” Lin Xuan said disheartenedly. It didn’t matter whether the other party believed it or not. Anyway, they were just being friendly without much sincerity.

The exchange continued.

Although he looked calm on the surface, he was glad he could buy the talisman. The Daoist Master was also very happy, with a flick of his finger, another white light shot out and opened the second box. This time, a transparent bottle appeared, with half a bottle of light blue liquid in it…

Then he began to introduce it.

Time passed quickly. Soon, it was almost noon. The Heavenly Vision Sect was indeed extraordinary. They didn’t waste the time of the Core Formation Stage Experts who came all the way here. The things that came out later became more and more precious, and a few of them even made the practitioners present scramble for them.

Lin Xuan stood by and watched. However, he was a little anxious in his heart.

During this process, the Daoist Master had taken out two precious herbs, and both of which were extinct in the outside world. But the Myriad Form Grass never appeared.

Lin Xuan couldn’t help but think of a possibility. Although the pharmacy owner said that there was such a thing in the Heavenly Vision Mountain, what if the other party didn’t intend to take it out this time.

Should he ask for it himself?

He didn’t know if he could get what he wanted, but he might make a fool of himself by doing so.

Lin Xuan was racking his brains for a solution. Of course, without showing it on his face.

He didn’t want to waste all the effort he spent, just to bring back a talisman.

Speaking of the Earth Tier Talisman, two thousand Spirit Stones were indeed a little expensive, but Lin Xuan has also heard that “A Thousand Miles In An Instant” had endless uses.

Do not underestimate this escape technique. As the saying goes, “Of all the possible schemes, the best way is to escape.” This talisman might save his life at a critical moment!

Lin Xuan had always been cautious. The more tricks one had in the Cultivation World the better.

However, no matter how good this talisman was, he only bought it in passing. His goal on this trip was the Myriad Form Grass.

The auction was about to come to an end. Although Daoist Master Ku Mu took out one or two items from time to time. But they were all Magic Artifacts, Spirit Tool, or weapon refining materials. Such as the bones of Spirit Beast and other things, and there were no more spiritual herbs…

The hope was becoming slimmer and slimmer, and Lin Xuan couldn’t help but frown slightly. However, at that moment, the Daoist Master, who was exchanging items with a Core Formation middle-stage cultivator, suddenly frowned. And a strange expression flashed on his face. He hurriedly put away the weapons that hadn’t been exchanged and cupped his hands, “I’m sorry, a senior is here. I need to greet him.”

After saying that, he turned into a red beam of light and flew out of the hall before the cultivators could answer.

A senior?

Upon hearing this word, Lin Xuan was stunned. He knew that Daoist Master Ku Mu was at the Core Formation Stage Great Perfection. So someone he calls a senior, Isn’t that an old monster in the Nascent Soul Stage?

It was beyond Lin Xuan’s expectation that a cultivator of such a high level would come here. After all, once a cultivator entered the Nascent Soul Stage, he would be a completely different existence. He didn’t need to participate in the auction at all. The items he needed would be fetched by his sect’s disciples.

Although the news was too shocking, Lin Xuan quickly came to his senses and looked around.

He saw that Tian Xiaojian’s expression was a bit confused and shocked. Although he was good at disguise, what he revealed should be his true emotions.

While Xu Han, with both hands clenched tightly and his face full of surprise, looked at himself and Tian Xiaojian with even more hostility, and it could even be said to be murderous.

But he has no enmity with him. Although Lin Xuan was smart, he was at a loss for a moment.

Of course, he didn’t pay much attention to a cultivator in the Foundation Establishment Stage. It was the one next to him, with a similar appearance to Xu Han, but with the same hostility who grabbed his attention.

Speaking of the Core Formation Stage cultivators, although Daoist Ku Mu didn’t leave without saying goodbye, it was a bit rude to leave so inexplicably. But those Core Formation Stage Experts seemed to know something and didn’t show any dissatisfaction.

On the contrary, they kept glancing at the three of them with strange gazes. At himself, Tian Xiaojian, and Xu Han.

Lin Xuan raised his eyebrows and laughed bitterly in his heart. It seemed that only he and Tian Xiaojian were ignorant!

Regardless of whether the two used to be hypocritical or not, they were now in the same boat. Lin Xuan turned his head and was about to discuss with Tian Xiaojian. Suddenly, his expression changed, and an indescribably powerful Spiritual Power fluctuation came in from the outside.
