In the blink of an eye, seven days passed quietly.

The entire Southern Region is still in constant war. The originally bustling Southern Region has gradually become deserted because of the battle between Yanshen Sect and Wangyue City.

Many low-level cultivators no longer dared to go out casually and chose to practice in seclusion in their respective caves.

If you go out during this period, you might get killed if you are not careful.

But there are still a few places in the southern region that have not been affected by the war, and Xianbao City is one of them.

Xianbao City is the branch of Xianbao Chamber of Commerce in the Southern Region and is also the largest trading city in the Southern Region.

Even the two top forces, Yanshen Sect and Wangyue City, would not cause trouble in Xianbao City.

The Southern Region has become lively these days because of Xianbao City.

The reason is simple, because Xianbao City will hold an auction soon.

Auctions are held in many places in the Southern Region, but this auction is different.

Rumor has it that this auction will not only feature items from ancient monks, but also ancient techniques and some special treasures.

In addition, the Xianbao Chamber of Commerce was in charge of this auction, which made the auction more popular.

Many cultivators from the Southern Region also rushed to Xianbao City to participate in this auction.

The Southern Region is not very peaceful nowadays. Many cultivators are eager to obtain some magic weapons and elixirs to improve their strength.

As a result, the number of people participating in this auction will be much greater than in previous years.

On the streets of Xianbao City, Chen Feng was walking on the street with three people.

The three people beside him are Zuo Poxing, Elder Meng and He Menghan.

At this moment, Elder Meng was introducing to Chen Feng: "Ancestor, I heard that there are more than a dozen Nascent Soul cultivators participating in this auction, and even some old monsters who have been indifferent to worldly affairs for many years have come."

Chen Feng asked: "Are the things of ancient monks so attractive?"

Originally, Chen Feng thought that this auction would not be very lively. After all, this was a trap set for him.

But now it seems that this auction is probably not just for the purpose of luring him out.

Elder Meng smiled and said:
"Old Ancestor, you don't know that this auction was actually agreed upon by Yanshen Sect and Wangyue City. The cultivators of both sides have been fighting for so long, and they have consumed a lot of magic weapons and elixirs, so naturally they need to be replenished."

"There are also many monks who kill people and steal treasures and want to sell some things in exchange for the resources they need, so they hold such an auction."

“Plus, fighting is prohibited in Xianbao City, so neither Wangyue City nor Yanshen Sect can do whatever they want, so there are many more cultivators participating this time than in the past.”

At this moment, a cunning voice sounded in Chen Feng's mind:
"Fellow Daoist, this doesn't look like a trap. If the other party wanted to set a trap, they shouldn't choose a place like Xianbao City."

Chen Feng calmly replied: "You are wrong. Xianbao City is the best place to choose. This will also paralyze us. Besides, why would the other party want to attack in Xianbao City? They can just do it outside."

With the influence of Yanshen Sect and Wangyue City in the Southern Region, it would be enough to know who bought the Starry Body Refining Art.

Moreover, Chen Feng guessed that there might be arrangements waiting for him outside Xianbao City.

"Then what are you going to do, fellow Taoist?" asked Zhe Cunningly.

"It will be your turn to contribute later." Chen Feng just said this vaguely and didn't say anything else.

Zhejiao suddenly felt his heart tighten. He always felt that Chen Feng would sell him out.

"Ancestor, I heard that there will be special products from the Xingfeng Sect this time. The Xianbao Chamber of Commerce has close cooperation with the Xingfeng Sect. Should we buy some to increase the strength of the sect?" Elder Meng asked at this time.

Chen Feng and Zeng Jiao were communicating via telepathy, so Elder Meng and the others naturally couldn't detect it.

Chen Feng looked at Elder Meng: "You also know about Xingfeng Sect?"

Elder Meng nodded: "I have learned about this force. Although it is only an offshore force, it has entered the list of the most powerful. It is rumored that its leader, Chen Beijing, can kill a Yuanying cultivator in seconds. His strength is unfathomable."

Zuo Poxing, who was standing next to him, heard this and glanced at Chen Feng calmly.

He Menghan, who was standing next to him, was also a little curious at this time. She asked in a cold voice, "I have also heard of this Xingfeng Sect, but I don't know much about it. Can Elder Meng tell us more about it?"

Although the Xingfeng Sect caused a stir in the Inner Sea, not many people knew about its power, and many people had only heard of it.

Elder Meng glanced at Chen Feng, and seeing that Chen Feng looked calm, he explained:
"I don't know much about the details. I only know that the Xingfeng Sect is a force that emerged from the abandoned land of the Inner Sea. In addition to the powerful strength of its leader Chen Beijing, there is also the unique way of refining weapons of the Xingfeng Sect. The weapons they refine do not require the consumption of spiritual energy to use, and they are extremely powerful."

"Both the Yanshen Sect and Wangyue City have purchased this kind of weapon from the Xingfeng Sect. If it weren't for the restrictions on the Inner and Outer Seas, I'm afraid countless forces would have gone to the Xingfeng Sect to buy it."

"I'm sure He Xianzi has heard of this weapon. It's a very famous firearm recently."

He Menghan suddenly realized: "So that kind of firearm was produced by Xingfeng Sect. Why have I never heard of this unique method of refining weapons before?"

Elder Meng shook his head: "There are rumors that this Xingfeng Sect is suspected to have obtained the inheritance of ancient cultivators, which is this kind of weapon refining technique passed down from ancient times."

Chen Feng listened quietly to the conversation between the two, his expression not changing at all.

A cunning voice came: "Haha, fellow Taoist, it seems that our Xingfeng Sect is very famous now."

Chen Feng said in a voice transmission: "This is not a good thing."

For other forces, becoming famous may be a good thing, but it is not a good thing for Xingfengmen.

The more famous you are, the more trouble you will get into.

Zhejiao said disdainfully: "What are you afraid of? I am here. I will kill as many people as possible. As long as the spirit transformation does not come out, I am invincible!"

"What if the God of Transformation takes action?" Chen Feng asked back.

"That's unlikely. Old monsters like these have lost touch with worldly affairs and rarely take action." Zhejiao's voice became noticeably weaker.

Chen Feng said calmly: "You also said very rarely, which means that he might take action, but we haven't attracted the attention of the old monster Huashen yet."

While they were talking, they had already arrived at an inn in the city.

There are many inns in Xianbao City, all built by the Xianbao Chamber of Commerce. The rooms in these inns are great places for cultivation and are filled with abundant spiritual energy.

After Chen Feng and a few others entered the inn, they immediately saw many cultivators in the lobby of the inn.

These cultivators just glanced at Chen Feng and others and then looked away.

At this time, a maid came forward:
"Welcome, seniors. I wonder what kind of rooms you would like. Our inn is divided into three types: heaven, earth, and human. Each type of spiritual energy has a different concentration. Among them, the heaven type room is the best, and the human type room is the lowest."

Without Chen Feng saying anything, Zuo Poxing beside him said directly: "Three Tianzi rooms!"

Elder Meng looked at Zuo Poxing with some confusion: "Master, aren't there four of us?"

Zuo Poxing ignored Elder Meng and paid the spirit stones directly.

The maid didn't say much, and immediately took a few people upstairs to the inn.

While walking on the road, Zuo Poxing sent a voice message to Elder Meng: "Have you lost your mind from reading ancient books? Didn't you see He Xiangzi was here too? Do you want her to live in a separate room from the ancestor?"

Hearing Zuo Poxing's words, Elder Meng suddenly realized: "The leader is really wise. I didn't even think of this."

The maid brought a few people to the top floor of the inn and opened the rooms one by one.

Chen Feng walked into the room first. Before entering the room, he turned to Zuo Poxing and said, "Give your room to He Menghan." After that, Chen Feng walked into the room without looking back.

Outside the room, Elder Meng said with a stifling smile: "Master, it seems you guessed wrong."

He Menghan next to her didn't say anything. She had a cold personality by nature, so she naturally understood what Zuo Poxing meant by asking for only three rooms.

In the eyes of everyone in the Poxing Sect, she is Chen Feng's concubine.

Hearing Elder Meng's teasing, Zuo Poxing suddenly felt a little embarrassed. He looked at the maid beside him and said, "I'll get another room."

Somewhere outside Xianbao City.

Gu Ran and a group of Yuanying cultivators from Yanshen Sect appeared here.

If outsiders saw this group of people, they would definitely be shocked, because there are nine Nascent Soul cultivators gathered here.

This lineup of nine Nascent Soul cultivators is enough to sweep away most of the forces in the Southern Region, but now they are all gathered outside Xianbao City.

Just then, a woman flew over from a distance and came in front of the nine people.

The woman clasped her fists towards Gu Ran, the leader of the nine people, and said, "I'm sorry, Senior Brother Gu. I was late because I had to deal with some things."

Gu Ran looked at the woman in front of him with a gentle smile on his face: "It's okay, Junior Sister Liu, you're here at the right time. We just arrived too."

Liu Qingqing looked at Gu Ran and the others, she hesitated and said:
"Brother Gu, is that person really that strong that he needs to send out so many people?"

Liu Qingqing naturally knew that the purpose of Gu Ran and others gathering here was to deal with the mysterious Nascent Soul cultivator who appeared at Tianqiong Peak.

But she didn't expect that Gu Ran would bring so many people with him. Including herself, there were a total of ten Nascent Soul cultivators.

Among them, there is one person in the late Nascent Soul stage, three people in the middle Nascent Soul stage, and five people in the early Nascent Soul stage, not to mention Gu Ran, a cultivator who has reached the great perfection of the Nascent Soul stage.

With such a lineup, killing even a Nascent Soul cultivator would be easy.

A young man with a rather gloomy face said:

"I also think it's unnecessary to send so many people. Now is the time for us to fight against Wangyue City. Sending so many high-level monks here will have a great impact on the war situation."

This gloomy young man has the cultivation base of the late Nascent Soul stage. He is the master of one of the nine peaks of the Yanshen Sect, and his name is Yin Jiuming.

What he is good at is the soul-controlling technique, one of the secret techniques passed down by the Yanshen Sect.

The Soul Controlling Technique, as the name implies, is to control the soul of a cultivator. However, this secret technique can only control the soul of a dead cultivator.

This is different from soul-controlling techniques, which can directly affect the soul of a cultivator.

Gu Ran said with a serious look:

"Junior Brother Yin, don't underestimate that man. Jiang Bohan and I teamed up to defeat him. Not only is his body strong, but he has also practiced the Great Evolution Divine Art. Many of our methods are useless against him."

Yin Jiuming said disdainfully: "That's because I wasn't here. If I were here, this person would definitely not be able to escape."

Gu Ran did not argue with Yin Jiuming, but looked at another Nascent Soul cultivator and asked:
"Is the Sky Locking Formation ready?"

The Nascent Soul cultivator nodded: "The formation flags and formation plates have been brought, and they are already being set up."

Gu Ran nodded: "Well, Junior Sister Liu, I will go to the auction venue later, you stay outside and wait for my news."

Gu Ran was naturally prepared to deal with Chen Feng this time.

He specially brought out a sixth-order space-locking formation. This formation had only one function, which was to lock the space within an area.

In this space, cultivators cannot use their teleportation abilities.

But this formation must be set up in advance.

In Gu Ran's opinion, as long as they restricted Chen Feng from using his teleportation ability, and then the ten of them attacked together, they would be able to quickly defeat the opponent.

At this time, Liu Qingqing said with some concern: "Brother, will Wangyue City interfere in this matter?"

Gu Ran said with an unchanged expression: "Wangyue City doesn't know what we are going to do. There are not many monks from Wangyue City coming to Xianbao City, so don't worry."

Liu Qingqing nodded and said nothing more.

After Gu Ran gave some instructions to everyone, he took Liu Qingqing into the city.

Three days passed quickly, and the auction in Xianbao City was about to begin.

One by one, the cultivators came to the largest Xianbao Chamber of Commerce in Xianbao City.

There were people from the Xianbao Chamber of Commerce at the door welcoming the arriving monks.

Not far away, there were Nascent Soul experts from the Xianbao Chamber of Commerce maintaining the situation.

In addition to this Nascent Soul expert, there was also a woman standing here. If Chen Feng were here, he would definitely recognize this woman. This person was Qu Jing, who used to be the manager of the Outer Sea Xianbao Chamber of Commerce.

Monk Qu Jing has now reached the Golden Elixir stage, and for some unknown reason he came to the Inner Sea.

At this time, Qu Jing transmitted the message to the Nascent Soul cultivator next to him:
"Mr. Xie, I just received news that a large number of cultivators from the Yanshen Sect seem to have appeared outside the city."

The old man named Xie Lao said with an unchanged expression: "Don't worry about it, as long as they don't start a fight in the city."

Qu Jing nodded and said nothing more.

At this time, Mr. Xie suddenly asked, "I heard that you have recently reached an in-depth cooperation with Xingfengmen and obtained a batch of aerospace carriers from Xingfengmen?"

Qu Jing smiled and nodded: "Well, I went to the open sea some time ago, and Xingfengmen commissioned us to sell these aerospace motherships, which also contain some powerful weapons."

Elder Xie was surprised and said, "Didn't you say before that the Xingfeng Sect was unwilling to sell the aerospace carrier?"

Qu Jing shook her head: "I was also surprised. Maybe Xingfengmen encountered something."

Mr. Xie did not ask any more questions. He said, "You will host this auction. This is also a test from the vice president. Take it well."

Hearing this, Qu Jing's face immediately showed joy, and he quickly bowed and clasped his fists: "Qu Jing will definitely do a good job this time and will not let Mr. Xie and the vice president down."

Qu Jing was very excited. The fact that she received the attention of the vice president proved that she had been valued by the top management of Xianbao Chamber of Commerce.

As long as she can accomplish this task, she will most likely be included in the Elders Council of the Xianbao Chamber of Commerce.

Once she enters the Council of Elders, even if she is only a Jindan cultivator, she can call upon the Yuanying cultivators of the Xianbao Chamber of Commerce to work for her. This can almost be said to be a step to heaven.

Qu Jing feels a little dazed when she thinks about it now. Originally, she was just a small manager of the Outer Sea Xianbao Chamber of Commerce.

But a few years ago, she met Chen Feng who came to the open sea from Yingzhou. At that time, she was just curious about his Dharma ship and wanted to make friends with him. Unexpectedly, it was that meeting that changed her life.

Through continuous cooperation with the Xingfeng Sect, she brought huge profits to the Xianbao Chamber of Commerce, and her status also rose.

"I wonder how Master Chen is doing now?" Qu Jing's mind appeared Chen Feng's face.

She hadn't seen Chen Feng for a long time. Every time she went to Xingfeng Gate, he was either in seclusion or out for something.

It is very difficult to meet her, and since she has recently come to the Inland Sea, the chances to go to Xingfeng Gate have also become less. (End of this chapter)
