Chapter 378: Chapter 378: Find a Place to Hide_1

The auction at the trading venue was in full swing, the atmosphere was exceptionally heated.

Two packets of anonymous herbal powder ignited the atmosphere to a climax, making every postnatal martial artists hysterical, as if the Innate Realm was right before their eyes.

The capable ones were fervently competing, so worked up that they wouldn’t mind going bankrupt. The incapable ones were just joining in the excitement, exhilarated to the extreme.

Zhang Xian lounged on the sofa with his leg crossed, looking extremely pleased with himself.

He had been thinking earlier, these two packets of herbal powder should be able to fetch a sky-high price. And as it turned out, they really did sell for an astronomical price, the current bid had almost reached two hundred million.

Although these martial artists were only postnatal ones, there were quite a few who were actually rich. The price had reached a hundred and fifty million, yet they were still relentlessly bidding.

In reality, the ingredients for these powders cost only about twenty thousand. A little bit of processing, and they fucking sold for such a high price.

"Zhang Xian, you’ve hit the jackpot, kid."

Jun Wuhen expressed unrestrained admiration. He was also utterly impressed with Zhang Xian’s capability. This guy, he was only in his twenties! How terrifying would he be once he matures?

Qiu Yun’s thoughts were similar to Jun Wuhen, expressing his admiration for Zhang Xian’s abilities.

Typically, someone Zhang Xian’s age would just be stepping out into the world. But this guy, he already owned a lofty manor, and his personal abilities were absolutely top-notch.

When he was that age, he was still playing in the mud in the fields.

"Well done..."

The auctioneer’s eyes lit up. The higher the price, the more excited he got. He too didn’t expect that this powder could fetch such a high price.

It seemed that there were quite a lot of rich postnatal masters!

"Damn it!"

Jiao Long’s eyes were turning red with envy.

The happier his enemies were, the more torment he felt. Seeing Zhang Xian’s smug face, he really felt like slapping him hard.

At this moment, his impulse to obtain the resources in Zhang Xian’s hands had reached an unprecedented height. If he had enough power, he would have interrogated Zhang Xian on the spot.

Xie Wuming and Cao Ge were also green with envy, never having thought that Zhang Xian could be so impressive.

After Jiao Long’s analysis, there was no doubt that the two packets of herbal powder were produced by Zhang Xian. Just these two small packets of powder had earned Zhang Xian two hundred million in such a short time.

Gangsters and rich heirs were nothing compared to Zhang Xian. They were fucking weak by comparison.

Finally, as the bidding continued, the new owner of the two packets of herbal powder was determined.

A tall middle-aged man, won the two packets of herbal powder for two hundred thirty million. Perhaps, another Innate Realm master would be born in no time.

The moment the result was confirmed, the middle-aged man was thrilled as if he had already stepped into the Innate Realm.

While those who failed looked on with envy.

It’s not that they didn’t want to compete, but they simply couldn’t afford it. They could only watch helplessly as the opportunity slipped to others. That feeling was truly frustrating.

"Let’s go!"

Seeing the auction ended, Zhang Xian promptly rose to his feet and headed inside.

Jun Wuhen and Qiu Yun kept up without falling behind.

It was a time of crisis, besides Cold Face, Jiao Long and other three Innate Realm masters were around. If they got caught, it surely wouldn’s be a pleasant experience.

"Haha, Brother Zhang, this is beyond my expectations. Who would have thought that these two packets of powder could fetch such an astronomical price of two hundred thirty million! Congratulations!"

The old man in charge of the auction was smiling ear to ear when he saw Zhang Xian. Even though they didn’t earn anything from this auction.

Holders of VIP cards are exempt from service fees at auctions. However, thanks to Zhang Xian’s two packets of herbal powder, the reputation of their auction house would definitely grow.

Such a story, passed from one to ten and from ten to a hundred, like wings on the wind, would soon explode within the martial artist circles.

"Indeed, I didn’t expect it to sell for such a high price either."

Zhang Xian laughed and said, "Well, sir, I have some urgent matters to attend to. Can we settle the accounts and get the Fairy Flower to me?"

"No problem, let’s get together another time."

The old man made no effort to keep him longer and called over a woman in a cheongsam. "Take Brother Zhang to settle the bill and get the items he won at auction."

"Yes! Please come with me, Mr. Zhang."

The woman in the cheongsam knew about the sky-high price of the powder already and was quite impressed by Zhang Xian. This young man seemed to be quite capable, and she wondered where he got such incredible powder.

Of course, she admired Zhang Xian’s martial prowess even more. A twenty-something Innate Realm master was genuinely remarkable.

As Zhang Xian followed the woman in the cheongsam, he noticed her frequently looking back at him and asked with a smile, "Sister, why do you keep looking at me? Do I have flowers on my face?"

"No... no..."

The woman in the cheongsam was hugely embarrassed, and quickly quickened her speed, entering a room.

...

After settling the accounts and getting the Fairy Flower, Zhang Xian didn’t linger. He quickly left the auction house with Jun Wuhen and Qiu Yun.

Glancing around and noticing no sign of Cold Face or Jiao Long, Zhang Xian asked, "So, what do you two plan to do now? Leave or stay?"

Jun Wuhen looked at Zhang Xian and asked, "Are you heading to Sunset Town?"

Zhang Xian shook his head, "I haven’t resolved the issues with Jiao Long and others as well as Cold Face, I can’t go there, or I might bring trouble to Duan Hong and the others."

Qiu Yun said, "I think I’ll stay with you! It’s somewhat safer if there are two of us."

Jun Wuhen agreed, "I share the same opinion as Brother Qiu. Since the three of us are friends, I can’t leave you hanging when you’re in trouble."

"If that’s the case, let’s find a place to hide first."

Zhang Xian smirked, "Give me a few days, and I might be able to help you step into the Grandmaster Realm."

"What?"

Jun Wuhen and Old Man Qiu’s eyes widened, "You can help us step into the Grandmaster Realm?"

"I’m not sure yet."

Zhang Xian replied, "But even if you can’t get into the Grandmaster Realm, at the very least, the two of you could reach the peak of the Innate Realm. By then, even Cold Face won’t be able to touch you."

"Damn..." Jun Wuhen was at a loss for words. The impact of Zhang Xian’s statement felt astonishing.

Qiu Yun was so excited that he couldn’t utter a word, his body trembling with anticipation.

If anyone else had said this, they might have scoffed. But Zhang Xian was different, he had so many secrets that they had no choice but to believe him.

Do they understand the concept of the Grandmaster Realm? Among known Loose Cultivators, it seems like none have strong individuals who reached the Grandmaster Realm.

Compared to the temptation of the Innate Realm for practitioners in the Mortal Realm, the temptation of the Grandmaster Realm for the Innate is even greater. The Grandmaster Realm was exceedingly formidable, almost infinitely close to the peak of this world.

"Let’s go!"

Zhang Xian chuckled, lifting his foot and heading in a certain direction.

Jun Wuhen and Qiu Yun looked at each other, chuckled, and followed Zhang Xian’s pace with excitement.

...

In a certain inn in Yuntai Town.

Jiao Long sat on a bed, his face as dark as a pot bottom, looking unusually ugly.

Today, that guy Zhang Xian had made a fortune. However, he somehow found another Innate realm person, making them reluctant to act rashly.

Xie Wuming stepped forward and asked, "Jiao Long, should we find Cold Face? If he makes a move, Zhang Xian and his group will definitely not be our match."

"Humph..."

Jiao Long snorted, "That guy is too ambitious. It’s best if we don’t involve him. If we want to get what’s on Zhang Xian, we have to do it ourselves."

At hearing this, Xie Wuming nodded.

Although they planned to kill Zhang Xian, it had to be after obtaining the resources from him. If Cold Face steps in, Zhang Xian might end up dead too quickly. If Cold Face finds out Zhang Xian’s secrets, they might not be the ones to benefit. Moreover, Cold Face might target them next. Cold Face is frighteningly powerful and is not to be taken lightly.

"Let’s see."

Jiao Long spoke, "If things go south, then we’ll look for Cold Face."

Xie Wuming nodded, "Alright. I’ll arrange for someone to track Zhang Xian and the others. By now, they should be looking for a place to hide."

Wu Que stood at a distance without joining in the discussion.

He’d come this time to fulfill a promise from years ago. Once this matter was completed, he would owe Xie Wuming nothing and would have no more involvement with him.

Back then, he’d made two promises to Xie Wuming. One was to protect, and the other was to help with a matter.

...

In an unassuming courtyard in Yuntai Town.

Jun Wuhen and Brother Qiu were sitting in the courtyard chatting, while Zhang Xian was concocting pills within the house.

After two days of continuous practice, he had just successfully concocted a batch of medicinal pills. Although the quality of this batch wasn’t top-notch, it was at least a step forward.

He had been failing and wasting a lot of medicinal ingredients before.

Though these ingredients weren’t particularly valuable and he could afford to waste them, the consistent failures had been quite depressing.

"Keep going..."

Zhang Xian laughed, sat cross-legged to recover the consumed Spiritual Energy, and prepared for the next batch.

Out of necessity, his current level of power was only able to concoct the most basic pill. The Ascension Pill, although considered a low-level pill, required more Spiritual Energy than he currently possessed.

As for the Qi Returning Pill, he could successfully make it, and had the ingredients in his storage ring. However, there weren’t many ingredients for alchemy, so he couldn’t afford to waste them.

And so, another day passed.

At dawn, just when the soft sunlight broke through the clouds and shone onto the land, Zhang Xian who was concocting pills suddenly smiled, a radiant smile on his face.

"Come out..."

At one point, Zhang Xian slapped the pill furnace, and several black pills with a fragrant smell shot out from the furnace. He reached out and caught them all without missing any.

After three days of practice, he’d finally mastered the art of alchemy and no longer frequently wasted his pills in inexplicable ways like before.

Now, what he had in his hand was the Qi Returning Pill he needed. With these pills’ help, he could begin concocting the Ascension Pill.
