Xiuxian, I have a high martial arts world

Chapter 74: Qi Refining Level , Where Does the Courage Come From? (First Update, Please Read)
"Is it really the fourth level of Qi Refining?"

While Lin Chen was hesitating, Cen Wushan had already taken action.

The flying swords stabbed at the robber leader's chest, piercing his heart.

The next second, the robber leader who had been so domineering before was deader than dead.

"Well, this is just a Qi Refining Level 4! Where does he get the courage?"

Lin Chen also accepted this reality.

After killing all the robbery cultivators, Cen Wushan came to Lin Chen and said with a smile:

"Haha, Junior Brother, you worry too much. In the territory of Yanlai, more than 99% of the cultivators have reached the perfection of Qi Refining, and there is only one cultivator who has reached the Foundation Establishment stage."

"So, there's no need to be so cautious."

Lin Chen nodded slightly, without commenting.

It seems that he still overestimated the independent cultivators. After he joined the sect to practice, he had unknowingly surpassed most of the cultivators.

"But it's always better to be careful!"

Lin Chen still said something.

Cen Wushan did not respond, but said:
"Although this group of robbers is a motley crowd, they have been plundering for several years, so they must have some wealth..."

"Why don't you and I search together and share some resources?"

So, the two of them released their spiritual sense and turned the water fort upside down.

After a while.

"Tsk, these Tribulation Cultivators are really poor."

Cen Wushan looked at the small pile of resources in front of him and complained.

Apart from a hundred or so spirit stones, there were only some ores and spiritual medicines, including a considerable amount of cold iron stones.

I think that when these robbery cultivators were in bad times, they would go to the mountains to mine part-time.

Lin Chen thought for a moment and said:

"The estimated value of these materials is about 200 spirit stones. Junior brother wants these materials. How about giving me some spirit stones?"

After hearing this, Cen Wushan waved his hand.

"Ha, you kid. What do I need these materials for? Take them all!"

After saying that, he took out another piece of letter.

This letter was found on the leader of the robbery group.

After reading it carefully, he showed a look of surprise and then handed it to Lin Chen.

After Lin Chen flipped through the letter, he frowned slightly.

The letter said that there was a robbery stronghold 200 miles north of here.

There are no less than thirty people, and the strongest one is in the late Qi Refining stage. They want to invite the leader of the water stronghold to join.

Obviously, Cen Wushan's first thought after reading the letter was -

"Junior brother, why don't we go do one more thing... er, wipe out another group of robbers?"

"Brother, let me tell you, this looting cultivator is a robber cultivator, but looting robber cultivators is the right way! Besides... looting robber cultivators makes money quickly!"

Cen Wushan was quite tempted.

After hearing this, Lin Chen flatly refused and advised:

"Brother, this time we promised Master that we would return as soon as possible!"

Cen Wushan disagreed with this. He rolled his eyes and said:

"Hey, Brother, let me buy you a drink first... How about you come back to the sect tomorrow morning?"

After hearing this, Lin Chen sighed. He knew that Cen Wushan had made up his mind and he was afraid that he could not persuade him.

"Brother, since you are going, remember to investigate the truth first and don't act rashly..." Lin Chen finally reminded.

That day, neither of them returned directly to Changchun Gate.

Cen Wushan ordered a table of spiritual food in the largest restaurant in Guangyuan Town Market and treated Lin Chen to a big meal.

"Come on, Junior Brother, try it... This Purple Smoke Chicken is a specialty of Guangyuan Town, and it tastes delicious!"

Lin Chen took a bite and found that the purple swallow chicken was indeed very tender.

……

Early the next morning.

After Lin Chen got up, he found that Cen Wushan had set out alone to suppress the bandits.

And he was not planning to return to Changchun Gate.

"I've finally come out here, so of course I have to finish my work before going back..." Lin Chen thought silently.

"The Guangyuan Town auction will not begin until tomorrow... Let's finish the task of collecting spiritual herbs today."

The location of the medicinal materials was not far from the market town, and Lin Chen flew to several places.

It only took an hour or two to collect the necessary herbs.

Seeing that it was almost noon, Lin Chen was not in a hurry to return to the market.

He first put on a human skin mask in the town and then changed his clothes.

Then he swaggered into a shop in the market.

"Shopkeeper, how much do you sell this cold iron stone for?"

Lin Chen revealed his cultivation level of the peak of Qi Refining. The shopkeeper immediately greeted him with a smile, but did not dare to raise the price.

"My dear guest, one spirit stone can buy five kilograms of cold iron stone..."

Upon hearing this, Lin Chen took out a hundred spirit stones.

"Give me five hundred kilograms of cold iron stone. I need it to forge weapons!"

When the boss heard this, his face immediately broke into a smile.

Five hundred kilograms of cold iron stone is almost half of the stock in his store. This is a big business.

Not long after, after Lin Chen left the shop, there were five hundred more cold iron stones in his storage bag, no more, no less.

Afterwards, Lin Chen went to more than ten shops and changed his appearance twice.

By evening, he had collected nearly 6,000 kilograms of cold iron stone.

"Well, six thousand kilograms of cold iron stone is almost the sales volume of this market in half a month...if there are more, it will easily attract attention."

Lin Chen decided to stop first.

His large-scale purchase of cold iron stone does have some risks.

But with the power of his peak Qi Refining cultivation, he is safe for the time being.

Moreover, the store he chose was far away, and it was difficult to detect large-scale purchases at first glance.

By the time they reacted, Lin Chen had probably already returned to Changchun Gate, eight hundred miles away.

……

the next morning.

Lin Chen changed his appearance again and went to the auction house.

After showing his cultivation, Lin Chen successfully entered the venue.

The venue is not large, with only about a hundred seats.

Lin Chen chose a corner at the back to sit down so that he could easily escape if anything happened.

Soon, the auction begins.

Lin Chen glanced around.

The hundred or so seats are almost full, and there are private rooms on the second floor.

"Well, about half of the seats are occupied by cultivators in the late stage of Qi Refining, and there are no Foundation Establishment cultivators... It seems that the Foundation Establishment cultivators are in the private rooms on the second floor?"

Lin Chen was a little surprised. It seemed that half of the strong men in this small town came to participate in the auction.

"Welcome all Taoist friends to participate in this auction..."

"I have been notified that there is a precious finale item in this auction. I believe you will be interested!"

"Next, the first item of this auction is a mid-grade magical flying sword. The starting price is 20 spirit stones..."

After watching for a while, Lin Chen lost interest.

There was nothing new about it, just a woman dressed in a coquettish manner on the stage, shouting out the auction items.

But even from Lin Chen's perspective, these auction items were just ordinary.

Even the black market in Changchun Mountain is far inferior...

But these mid-grade magic tools, first-grade top-grade talismans, top-grade Qi-enhancing pills and the like are very popular at the auction.

Most of those who purchased it were cultivators in the middle to late stages of Qi Refining.

The transaction price is mostly between twenty and fifty spirit stones.

After watching for a few days, an item that interested Lin Chen finally appeared at the auction.

"The next auction item is a natural spirit-testing stone, three feet tall and more than two feet wide..."

"After appraisal, this spirit stone is found to be sufficient to test spirits thirty thousand times... Starting price: two hundred spirit stones."
