Chapter 178 Golden branches and jade leaves
"This Purple Extreme Flower is in perfect condition. An experienced third-level alchemist can refine three Purple Extreme Pills. The starting price is 200,000 Spiritual Stones, and each bid cannot be less than 10,000 Spiritual Stones."

Perhaps to prevent people from raising the price by 100 spirit stones at a time like Fang Chen did, Tianxiang set the limit for each increase at 10,000 spirit stones this time.

However, Fang Chen didn't care about these. After all, he would definitely not participate in this auction.

This also resulted in him and Long Jia being the only two people in all the boxes who did not make a bid, while the other boxes were in fierce competition.

This also includes the so-called Blood Demon Palace's agent.

Feeling bored staying in the box, Fang Chen thought that he was now an incarnation anyway, so he walked out of his box and planned to meet Long Jia.

He walked to the door of the other party's box and knocked very politely.

"Who?"

Long Jia's question came from the box.

"Senior, I am Fang Chen from Yuehua Immortal City, and I have come to visit you specially."

Fang Chen also stated his identity openly.

"Oh? You are such a fearful person, but you also came to Xingyue Sea?"

When he heard it was Fang Chen, Long Jia was very surprised.

He still remembered how the other party was on high alert when he went to visit Yuehua Fairy City.

I didn't expect that he would dare to come to the dangerous Xingyue Sea alone. It's really not something he would do.

Although he was surprised, Long Jia still opened the door of the box and let Fang Chen in.

"Good boy, it turns out that you are controlling something like an avatar. I thought you just got braver!"

Long Jia waved his hand to block out the sound in the box, then looked at Fang Chen and saw the clue at a glance.

"I came here to inquire about the news of the Demon Cultivator Alliance. If they go to war with the Righteous Immortal Sect, Yuehua Immortal City will bear the brunt, and I have to be prepared."

The seats in the box were large sofa-like seats. Fang Chen sat opposite Long Jia, straightened his back, and told him about his plan.

As for joining the Demon Cultivator Alliance, he did not mention it.

"It is indeed necessary to do this. Within five years, the Demon Cultivator Alliance will definitely attack the righteous immortal sect. No one will be able to stay out of it."

Long Jia also agreed with Fang Chen's approach, and then jokingly added: "This is a good opportunity for the Immortal Dynasty. The power of the Demon Cultivation Alliance and the Righteous Immortal Sect has been weakened. The Immortal Dynasty can take advantage of this opportunity to reunify the cultivation world."

"Hahaha, then I'll take advantage of your good words, Senior."

Fang Chen laughed a few times and continued with the joke.

Then he got down to business: "Speaking of which, how did you know that the person in Box 6 was a Blood Demon Palace agent?"

"Ha ha ha ha……"

Long Jia did not answer directly, but laughed out loud towards the sky.

After he had laughed enough, he gave an answer: "Of course he is not a stooge, he is the alchemist of the Blood Demon Palace. The Blood Demon Palace naturally has the formula for the Foundation Establishment Pill, but he does not want others to know his alchemy level, so he wants to buy the formula for the Foundation Establishment Pill from outside."

"But if that's the case, why would the auction house conclude that he was a shill?"

Fang Chen continued to ask in confusion.

"It's very simple. It's because the Jindan cultivator guarding this island can't beat me, and the person in Box 6 is indeed a disciple of the Blood Demon Palace and an alchemist. If I say in the end that he is not a stooge, I and the others present will not be convinced."

Long Jia pointed at himself and explained proudly.

"To overwhelm others with force?"

Fang Chen seemed to understand something. This was indeed a method that only Dragon Armor could use.

He has the power to change all the rules on this island, so naturally, whatever he says is what it is, and no one can refute it. "That's right, so you should focus on improving your strength. The Immortal Dynasty is a thing of the past. No matter how many ants you train, it will be useless."

Long Jia leaned back and educated Fang Chen earnestly.

"Juniors have learned a lesson."

Fang Chen didn't say anything. His main focus was indeed on improving his strength. Even now, he was meditating and practicing in the training field.

But Long Jia's words suddenly gave him a new idea. He kept it in mind and asked another question: "Senior Long Jia, the names of the nine seas in the Xingyue Sea all contain the word "moon". Could it be related to the Moon Palace?"

After saying this, he stared at Long Jia's expression.

The main reason was that he felt that the dragon armor would not reveal any useful information, and he could only guess from his expression whether there was a connection.

However, to his surprise, Long Jia nodded and said, "This is something I am very concerned about. The shadow of the Moon God Palace can be seen everywhere in the Demon Cultivator Alliance. It seems that it was founded by some people from the Moon God Palace. However, the people of the Moon God Palace are not so shameless."

Having said that, Long Jia showed a nostalgic look, and after a moment, he sighed.

Then he continued, "Of course, it is also possible that during the years I was asleep, some people's personalities have changed drastically. I am also secretly investigating who is behind the Demon Cultivator Alliance."

"I see."

Fang Chen nodded. Long Jia's words confirmed that the Star-Moon Sea was connected to the Moon Palace, but he didn't know the specific reason.

"I almost forgot, you are the one in Box No. 3, you can actually come up with 400,000 spirit stones, your financial resources should not be underestimated."

Long Jia quickly adjusted his state, crossed his legs, and talked about Fang Chen's recent auction of the Foundation Establishment Pill recipe.

"Hey, I only have about 100,000 spirit stones on me. I saw fellow Daoist Wang and Dian Chu below, and thought about buying the pill formula and collecting spirit stones with them. The alchemist from the Blood Demon Palace is the truly wealthy one."

Fang Chen did not reveal that the Purple Extreme Flower being auctioned was brought by him, he just told the original plan.

"That person is a genius in alchemy. He became a second-level lower-grade alchemist after completing his Qi training. He usually sells pills and makes a lot of money."

Long Jia obviously knew the person in that box very well, otherwise he would not have slandered him as a spy of the Blood Demon Palace in the beginning.

"No wonder he is still participating in the auction of the Purple Extreme Flower. It is probably to prepare for the future."

Fang Chen took note of this person in his mind, then turned his head and looked through the box to the auction table below.

At this time, the auction of Purple Extreme Flower had reached a fever pitch.

Although the sound was blocked by the dragon armor, this could be seen from the movements and expressions below.

Seeing Fang Chen started watching the auction, Long Jia simply removed the sound insulation, and Tian Xiang's voice immediately came in.

"Eight hundred thousand spirit stones for the third time, deal. Congratulations to fellow Taoist in box six for successfully bidding on this Purple Extreme Flower."

When saying the words "Box No. 6", Tianxiang deliberately emphasized the tone. All the cultivators present were smart people, so they could naturally hear the hidden meaning in the words.

Considering that the people in box six were still able to continue bidding and participating in the auction, most people realized that this person was not a stooge at all.

However, due to the strength of the Jindan cultivator, no one dared to say anything.

"My fellow Taoists, we only have one treasure left in this auction."

As soon as Tianxiang finished speaking, a maid came up from the stage carrying a tray, which was also covered with a red cloth like Zijihua.

Tianxiang lifted the red cloth, and before she could introduce it to the people present, Longjia in the box had already said the name of the treasure.

"Golden branches and jade leaves, this Demon Cultivator Alliance is really willing to give."
