Mortal: Return of apprenticeship? Bug at the beginning

Many Nascent Soul cultivators entered the sixth floor of the Xinghai Pavilion.

The sixth floor of Xinghai Pavilion is extremely spacious, with neatly arranged tables and chairs surrounding the auction table in the center.

And on the auction table in the center was the Jindan female cultivator from the Yanyue Sect who was in charge of this auction, Nangong Wan's senior sister, Fairy Nishang.

Currently, Fairy Nishang has only cultivated to the late Jindan stage and is still a long way from the Yuanying stage. However, she is more than capable of hosting an auction.

Fairy Nishang ordered someone to bring the first item of the auction and began to introduce this first item.

"Seniors, fellow Taoists, this is the first lot of this auction. It is a water-attributed dragon spirit. After adding it to your life magic weapon, it can greatly increase the power of the magic weapon... The starting price is 10,000 low-level spirit stones."

The charming voice of Fairy Nishang echoed in the empty space, immediately attracting the attention of many monks present.

"The first auction item is actually the demon soul of a level 7 flood dragon! Brother Jiang is really generous, it's amazing!"

"I must take a picture of this seventh-level dragon's demon soul and add it to my magic weapon. This way, my magic weapon can be improved several times, and it will be able to fight against a cultivator in the middle stage of the Nascent Soul!"

"The spirit of a level seven dragon! Damn it! I really want it!"

The numerous cultivators present stared at the magic bottle containing the seventh-level dragon spirit in the hands of Fairy Nishang on the stage with eager, greedy and covetous eyes.

"I'll offer 50,000 Spiritual Stones!"

Soon, a Nascent Soul cultivator could no longer contain his love for this seventh-level dragon spirit and immediately called out a price.

"I'll offer 60,000 Spiritual Stones!"

However, there was no way one could bid for this seventh-level dragon spirit with just 50,000 spirit stones, and soon a Nascent Soul cultivator raised the price.

After fierce bidding among the Nascent Soul cultivators present, the final price of this level seven dragon demon soul was as high as 130,000 spirit stones, which was almost equivalent to the demon core of a level seven demon beast!
However, this is normal. The value of the demon soul of a level seven demon beast is not lower than that of a demon pill, not to mention that this is the demon soul of a dragon.

Spiritual beasts like dragons are extremely rare, so they are naturally much more expensive than ordinary monsters of the same level.

After handing over the seventh-level dragon spirit to the bidder, Fairy Nishang ordered someone to bring up the second auction item...

Just like that, three days passed in a flash amid the intense and exciting bidding, and during these three days of the auction, one extremely precious treasure after another appeared.

The tortoise shells of level eight turtle monsters, the dragon horns of level nine flood dragons, and various precious materials from monsters above level eight.

This made the eyes of the many Nascent Soul cultivators present turn red. If Jiang Tongyue had not demonstrated his strength before, these Nascent Soul cultivators would have rushed out to snatch it away.

This auction has come to the last item.

"The next item is the last one in this auction, and it is also the most precious item in the entire auction. The last item is a demon pill for a demon cultivator in the Spiritualization Stage!"

The Fairy Nishang lifted the brocade handkerchief on the tray, and a round ball emitting blue light suddenly appeared in everyone's eyes.

"What! A demon pill for the Spiritual Transformation Stage? Is this true or not?"

“I never thought that, at the end of my life, I would have the chance to see this Spiritual Transformation Stage Demon Pill!”

The many immortal cultivators present were completely shocked!

This is a demon pill for the God Transformation Stage!
It has been who knows how many years since a cultivator in the God Transformation Stage appeared in the entire Tiannan, let alone a demon pill in the God Transformation Stage.

Even the three great cultivators of Tiannan were staring at the demon pill of the God Transformation Stage on the stage, and were unwilling to take their eyes away.

At the same time, everyone was wondering in their hearts where Jiang Tongyue found this demon pill for the God Transformation Stage, and why he was willing to put it up for auction.

"The starting price for this Spiritual Transformation Stage Demon Pill is one million Spiritual Stones!"

At this moment, the colorful fairy on the stage spoke slowly.

All of a sudden, all the Nascent Soul cultivators present rushed to quote their prices, trying to snatch this Divine Transformation Stage demon pill.

Even the three great cultivators of Tiannan started bidding.

Even if this God Transformation Stage Demon Pill is of little use to them, they will not let other Nascent Soul cultivators easily bid for this God Transformation Stage Demon Pill.

Soon, the bidding price for this demon pill of the God Transformation Stage reached five million spirit stones, and the only ones participating in the bidding were Nascent Soul cultivators from four forces: the Six Demonic Sects, the Righteous Alliance, the Nine Nations Alliance, and the Heavenly Alliance.

The Nascent Soul cultivators from these four major forces gathered their spirit stones in one person's hands, wanting to bid for this Divine Transformation Stage Demon Pill.

Finally, the bidding price for this Spiritual Transformation Stage Demon Pill reached seven million spirit stones and was bought by Wei Wuya from the Nine-Nation Alliance.

Upon seeing this, the old demon Hehuan, as well as the Nascent Soul cultivators such as Master Zhiyang curled their lips and felt very uncomfortable.

This demon pill for the God Transformation Stage was lost in this way.

"My dear seniors and fellow Taoists, this auction has come to a successful conclusion. The next auction will be held in thirty years. Please look forward to it."

Fairy Nishang said this with a smile on her face, and when she thought of the income she had earned this time, she couldn't suppress the corners of her smile.

As the host of this auction, Fairy Nishang can get a commission of 1% of the auction.

Although the commission is not high, the treasures auctioned this time are extremely precious, especially the demon pill of the Spirit Transformation Stage.

It can be said that the commission from this auction alone made Fairy Nishang's wealth so great that even Nascent Soul cultivators would be extremely jealous.

If Fairy Nishang and Jiang Tongyue's Taoist partner Nangong Wan were not close friends, such a good thing would never have been hers.

At this moment, the Nascent Soul cultivators present were all excited after hearing that an auction would be held again after thirty years.

Since I was not well prepared this time and failed to bid for the treasure I wanted, I will go back and prepare for the next auction.

Jiang Tongyue didn't care about the thoughts of these Nascent Soul cultivators, but came to Wei Wuya and talked to him.

"Fellow Daoist Jiang, I don't have that many spirit stones on me. Can I use some precious materials to offset some of the spirit stones?"

Wei Wuya asked Jiang Tongyue with difficulty.

Seven million spirit stones is really too many. If he were to go back and gather some, he would still be able to gather that number of spirit stones.

"Of course you can. If you have any treasures, please bring them out for me to see. I will definitely give you a fair price."

Jiang Tongyue spoke to Wei Wuya with a smile on her face.

Hearing this, Wei Wuya breathed a sigh of relief, and then took out various rare treasures and materials from his storage bag.

Among them was a small scarlet seal of ancient treasure with considerable power, several pieces of rare Geng gold, and a dark golden lotus pedestal.

"This Vermillion Bird Seal is an ancient treasure that I obtained a long time ago. It has amazing power, but it is not compatible with my attributes. And this third-grade lotus pedestal was also obtained at the same time. This third-grade lotus pedestal is extremely magical. Sitting cross-legged on the lotus pedestal can not only speed up the practice speed, but also enhance the cultivator's understanding!" Wei Wuya began to introduce the ancient treasure of the small crimson seal and the rare treasure of the lotus pedestal to Jiang Tongyue. When talking about the rare treasure of the lotus pedestal, a trace of reluctance flashed in Wei Wuya's eyes.

Even now, this third-grade lotus platform is still of some use to him. If it weren't for the demon pill of the Spirit Transformation Stage, he would never have taken out this third-grade lotus platform.

"I didn't expect that fellow Taoist actually had such a treasure! This really surprised me!"

Hearing this, Jiang Tongyue looked at the third-grade lotus platform with fiery eyes. He was determined to get this third-grade lotus platform.

With the blessing of this third-grade lotus platform, Jiang Tongyue could not only easily comprehend various sword-related spells and magical powers, but also practice the Dayan Jue at a much faster pace.

And if a higher quality lotus platform could be returned by the system, his cultivation speed would be greatly improved.

In the end, after discussions between Jiang Tongyue and Wei Wuya, the ancient treasure of the Vermillion Bird Seal, the rare treasure, the third-grade lotus platform, plus the Geng gold, were used to offset the three million spirit stones.

The most important thing is that those Geng golds are also very valuable. Just a small piece is worth hundreds of thousands of spirit stones.

After paying off the spirit stones, Wei Wuya happily took the Spirit Transformation Stage Demon Pill and left the Kingdom of Yue with his nephew Wei Lichen.

Those Nascent Soul cultivators who came to participate in the Nascent Soul Ceremony of Old Monster Linghu also left the Kingdom of Yue one by one.

Jiang Tongyue brought several treasures obtained from Wei Wuya and found Han Li in the bloody forbidden land.

"Han Li, this is a rare treasure that your master obtained not long ago. It can not only speed up the cultivation of immortal cultivators, but also greatly increase their understanding!"

Jiang Tongyue handed the rare treasure, the third-grade lotus platform, to Han Li.

"Hiss...it's actually such a rare treasure!"

Upon hearing this, Han Li took a deep breath and looked at the dark golden lotus platform in front of him in surprise.

If he were to practice on this lotus platform, even his second junior sister Mo Yuzhu's practice speed would probably not be as fast as his.

Furthermore, this lotus platform can increase the cultivator's comprehension, allowing him to comprehend various spells more easily.

Han Li's comprehension was not ideal, and his practice of magic was not very profound. He just relied on the power of magic weapons.

Han Li did not hesitate too much and directly accepted the lotus platform.

"Ding, you have rewarded your disciple Han Li with a rare treasure, a third-grade lotus platform. The current return multiple is 100 times. Please choose..."

"Choice 1: Return one hundred rare treasures, the third-grade lotus pedestals!"

"Choice 2: Return a rare treasure, a sixth-grade lotus platform!"

Jiang Tongyue's eyes flickered, and she chose to return the sixth-grade lotus platform without hesitation.

Compared with the third-grade lotus platform, the functions of this sixth-grade lotus platform are more than a hundred times more powerful. Not only can it increase the cultivator's cultivation speed by dozens of times, but it can also enhance the cultivator's comprehension to an incredible level.

In addition, this sixth-grade lotus platform is also a top-notch defensive treasure. As long as you sit cross-legged on this lotus platform, you will be immune to all kinds of attacks and be able to ward off all evil.

Of course, this sixth-grade lotus platform also has its limits. For example, it can only defend against attacks from cultivators who are one level higher than Jiang Tongyue.

For example, he is now a cultivator in the Nascent Soul stage. Even if he sits cross-legged on this sixth-grade lotus platform, he can only withstand a full-strength attack from a cultivator in the middle stage of the Spiritualization stage.

However, this is enough. Given the current situation in the human world, there are simply no cultivators in the middle stage of the Spirit Transformation Realm.

"Okay, Han Li, you should practice well and strive to break through to the Nascent Soul stage as soon as possible. Then you can live for a thousand years."

Jiang Tongyue was in a good mood. She patted Han Li's shoulder with a smile, encouraged Han Li, and then left Han Li's cave.

Afterwards, Jiang Tongyue found Xin Ruyin who was comprehending the ancient formation, and gave her the ancient treasure, the Vermillion Bird Seal.

Suddenly, this ancient treasure returned to Jiang Tongyue a top-notch magical treasure.

The returned Suzaku Seal, a magical treasure from heaven, was made from the demon soul of a Suzaku and its flame. Once the Suzaku Seal is activated and the Suzaku flame is released, it can burn all things in the world.

At the same time, Suzaku is the spirit of all fires and can easily subdue all the flames in the world.

However, the returned Vermillion Bird Seal is a magical treasure that can reach all heavens. If Jiang Tongyue wants to use this Vermillion Bird Seal, he also needs to practice the Tongbao Jue recorded on the Vermillion Bird Seal first.

Moreover, this Tongbao Jue also has extremely high requirements for the cultivation level of the immortal cultivator. Just the first level of Tongbao Jue requires the cultivation level of the late Nascent Soul stage to be able to perform it.

The second level can only be practiced after breaking through to the late stage of the Spirit Transformation. Only after practicing the second level of the Tongbao Jue can one use the Suzaku Seal with ease.

As for the third level, it is simply beyond the imagination of Jiang Tongyue now.

However, even so, Jiang Tongyue was very satisfied.

When he breaks through to the late Nascent Soul stage, he will immediately practice the Tong Bao Jue. When he encounters a tough enemy, he will use the Suzaku Seal to burn him.

However, after Jiang Tongyue breaks through to the late Nascent Soul stage, in the human world, perhaps only the few Jin Dynasty cultivators will feel difficult to deal with.

Jiang Tongyue withdrew his thoughts and looked at the formation-related books on Xin Ruyin's desk, and his expression changed.

Tianxing Sect, one of the three sects of Yuanwu Kingdom, is famous in the south for its art of formation. Jiang Tongyue plans to go to Tianxing Sect and copy a copy of the formation book for Xin Ruyin.

As for whether the Tianxing Sect would be willing, Jiang Tongyue believed that as long as he offered a high enough price, the Nascent Soul cultivators of the Tianxing Sect would definitely not refuse.

Thinking of this, Jiang Tongyue left the bloody forbidden land and rushed towards the mountain gate of Tianxing Sect of Yuanwu Kingdom.

Not long after, Jiang Tongyue met several Nascent Soul cultivators from the Tianxing Sect.

After a struggle between Jiang Tongyue and two Nascent Soul cultivators from the Tianxing Sect, Jiang Tongyue copied the Tianxing Sect's classics related to formations at the cost of two top-level spirit stones.

Of course, the two Nascent Soul cultivators of the Tianxing Sect also had to integrate all of the Tianxing Sect's formation books into a complete collection of formations, and at the same time write their own insights about formations into it to make it easier for Xin Ruyin to comprehend.

The two Nascent Soul cultivators from the Tianxing Sect also agreed to this condition.

Otherwise, the Tianxing Sect’s formation manual alone would not be worth two top-level spirit stones.

The reason why they agreed was because they also needed top-level spirit stones to improve their cultivation.
It can be said that no one wants to die, especially those cultivators who have broken through to the Nascent Soul stage, who are even more afraid of death than those cultivators in the Core Formation stage.

Of course, Jiang Tongyue also made a promise that he would only teach this complete formation to his disciple Xin Ruyin, and not to anyone else.

Only then did the two elders of the Tianxing Sect agree to Jiang Tongyue's request.
