Refining medicine can't save Doupo!

Chapter 589 Teacher, do you think I can take another picture of the map fragment here?
"Let's wait until we become stronger and come back to see."

At the bottom of the Burning Heaven Refining Tower, a black shadow suddenly rushed up from the magma channel below, and then the Dou Qi shield unfolded the remaining lava on the surface of the body, revealing Xiao Yan inside.

"It's still true that consuming strange fires will improve my cultivation faster." Inside the Burning Heaven Refining Tower, Xiao Yan stretched his body a bit, then chuckled to Yao Chen within him and said, "Teacher is right. I still need to become a little stronger before exploring the deeper secrets of the underground magma world."

Xiao Yan was not going to give up the secret of the underground magma world. He just vaguely sensed something was wrong, so he made a strategic retreat.

"I have to go share this good news with Xun'er!" Xiao Yan hadn't seen Gu Xun'er for more than two months, and his heart was still full of longing for her, so he packed up his clothes and hair, and quickly walked out of the Burning Heaven Refining Tower.

Thanks to the protection of the Azure Lotus Earth Core Fire in his body, Xiao Yan did not ignite his body when he swallowed the Fallen Heart Flame this time, but instead preserved all his body hair.

The most dangerous part of Burning Art's journey to swallow strange fire is the first time you swallow a strange fire. Once you have a strange fire in your body, it will be much easier to subdue it later.

"Huh? Not here?" When Xiao Yan, wearing a black shirt and a black hat, appeared at Gu Xun'er's residence, he found that Gu Xun'er was not inside.

"Is it such a coincidence?" Xiao Yan turned around and went to ask the teacher at Canaan College about Gu Xun'er's schedule. Finally, he learned that Gu Xun'er had gone to Black Seal City to participate in the Black Seal Auction not long ago.

Xiao Yan only thought for a moment, then said goodbye to his teachers, condensed his fighting spirit wings, and flew into the sky. Looking back at the Canaan Academy which seemed to have an immortal atmosphere, a hint of surprise flashed in the depths of Xiao Yan's eyes, and he flew towards the Black Horn Plain without looking back.

"According to the agreed time, Brother Lin should be back soon, right? I don't know where Senior Hun Ling is either. Sigh." Xiao Yan, who had just finished his retreat, suddenly found himself all alone. However, he didn't say anything, but prepared to go to Black Seal City to meet up with Gu Xun'er and the others.

On the other hand, the auction in Black Seal City is about to take place.

"Brother Jie, it seems that the spirit craftsman has really left." In a room somewhere in Heiyin City, the burly Lei Lie looked at the equally burly Lei Jie standing beside him.

"I haven't heard from him for several months. Perhaps he has returned to the Soul Clan?" Lei Lie sighed and continued, "It's good that he has returned. Otherwise, it would be a big deal if that spirit craftsman kept causing trouble in the Black Horn Region."

The ones who appeared here were the law enforcement disciples of the Thunder Clan, Lei Jie, a one-star Dou Zun, and Lei Lie, a seven-star Dou Zong.

They are the people who handle external affairs of the Thunder Clan in the Thunder Realm. The Thunder Clan noticed a long time ago that the spirit craftsmen were messing around in their Black Horn Region, so Lei Lie and Lei Jie have been quietly investigating to see what the Soul Clan is up to.

Then they discovered the 'double taxation law' implemented by the Spiritual Craftsman in the Black Horn Region.

"Let's wait and see. Unless absolutely necessary, the Thunder Clan should avoid any conflicts with the Soul Clan." Lei Jie shook his head slightly, gulped down the tea in his hand, and then said, "Although the Black Horn Territory belongs to the Thunder Clan in an unspoken agreement, there is no explicit stipulation after all. If the Spirit Craftsman makes trouble here, it's difficult for us to take the initiative to do anything."

Over the years, the power of the Thunder Clan has gradually declined, while the Soul Clan has become increasingly powerful. Therefore, even though Lei Jie and others knew that the Soul Clan was encroaching on the interests of their Thunder Clan, they still did not dare to act rashly.

"Yes, Brother Jie, given how much the Soul Palace values ​​the Nine-One Qi Gathering Formation, we'll likely suffer heavy losses if we act rashly." Lei Lie, through the Thunder Clan's intelligence network, already knew that the Qinghai Elder, a two-star Dou Zun, had stationed himself at the Soul Palace headquarters in the Black Horn Territory. If they acted recklessly, it could end up in a fight between Dou Zun and the enemy, which would be more trouble than good.

If there are any conflicts between the ancient imperial families, generally speaking, both sides will subconsciously try to reduce the intensity of the conflict. In other words, try not to involve the old guys in matters between the younger generations.

This is also why the Thunder Clan's two law enforcement disciples, the strongest of whom is only a one-star Dou Zun, are essentially unwilling to escalate the conflict. Even sending one-star Dou Zun Lei Jie is purely a defensive measure. The Thunder Clan's desired engagement intensity is that of a Dou Zong on Lei Lie's level.

If things can be handled at the Dou Zong stage, then the Dou Zun will not have to show up, and the Lei Clan behind the scenes will not have to show up either.

"If it is confirmed that the spirit craftsman has left, then the blood alliance under our control can further take over some territory." Lei Jie said lightly.

Currently, there are two alliances in the Black Horn Region, one large and one small. One is the Blood Alliance, and the other is the 'Black Horn Region Community of Interests and Destiny Alliance', referred to as the Black Alliance.

It is worth mentioning that the Blood Alliance is a major regional force within the Black Alliance. In other words, the Blood Alliance is also a member of the Black Alliance and needs to abide by certain fundamental principles within the Black Alliance and cannot disrupt the alliance.

The Blood Alliance was not actually very strong at the beginning, but after the Seven-Star Dou Zong Lei Lie joined, he helped the Blood Alliance to seize a lot of territory in the Black Horn Region, becoming the regional power within the Black Alliance, second only to the power of Canaan Academy.

In essence, the Black Alliance and the Blood Alliance are in opposition.
"I have to say, that spirit craftsman suddenly created the Black Alliance, and instantly pulled the escaped Blood Alliance into the same camp." Lei Lie couldn't help scratching his head. He originally wanted to use the Blood Alliance as a 'catfish' to muddy the waters of the Black Horn Region again and prevent the spirit craftsman from continuing.

But who knew that the Spiritual Craftsman directly asked Canaan College to pull the Blood Alliance together to establish a Black Horn Region Community of Interests and Destiny Alliance. This immediately made the expansion of the Blood Alliance rational.
The spirit craftsman's meaning was very clear. To the outside, everyone was a black alliance, but internally, you could do whatever you wanted. As long as it didn't hinder him from "making money", then whoever had the bigger fist would get more of the profits that were already distributed.

So Lei Lie used the Blood Alliance to grab a large portion of the benefits in the distribution of benefits in the Black Horn Domain. If the Spiritual Craftsman did not come back, then Lei Lie would try to squeeze out the benefits of the Black Horn Domain through the "permitted" means.

"Hmm." Lei Jie nodded lightly, his gaze lingering on the magnificent scenery outside the window. Through the layered houses, his eyes fell on the Qi Gathering Tower near Black Seal City, and then he said in a deep voice, "Let's see how things go tomorrow. We brought out some good stuff this time. If the Spirit Craftsman doesn't make any move, then it means he's really gone."

The Thunder Clan will not cooperate with the Soul Clan. This is a matter of principle. Moreover, the Thunder Clan is still coveting the daughter of the Ancient Clan. The Thunder Clan will not have anything to do with the Soul Clan.

However, non-cooperation does not affect the Thunder Clan's ability to obtain the fruits of their labor from the Black Horn Region through their own hands and hard work.

For the two brothers Lei Jie, the blood alliance is the black glove they use to benefit the Thunder Clan.

"Yeah, okay." Lei Lie nodded slightly, then drank the tea in his hand, and disappeared in an instant with his cousin Lei Jie.

There have been suddenly more good things at the Black Seal Auction recently. The main reason is that the Lei Jie brothers are letting the items go. They found that they had lost the trace of the spirit craftsman for a long time, so they had to resort to this last resort to test the spirit craftsman's true strength.

The next morning, the Lei Jie brothers, dressed in black robes, arrived at the Black Seal Auction. Due to the early pre-sale hype, the place was already packed. However, the Lei Jie brothers didn't try to be too loud, but rather kept a low profile. They appeared in a corner of the auction hall with the other bidders, silently watching the auctioneer begin his introduction to the auction schedule.

"Eighth-grade elixir: Green Scale Fruit!"

"Earth-Rank Beginner Cultivation Technique: Wind and Thunder Technique!"

"Huh?" Lei Lie, who had originally been unconcerned about the auction items, suddenly raised his eyebrows. He looked at a certain fighting technique on the auction table and asked with some curiosity, "Earth-level elementary techniques have appeared? It seems that the overall cultivation environment in the Black Horn Region has improved a lot."

Lei Lie only provided some high-level materials. The earth-level primary skills were not provided by him, so he was surprised.

"." Lei Jie's expression flickered slightly. The Wind and Thunder Art was actually a fighting technique from Zhongzhou.
"Seventh-grade spiritual medicine: Thunder Spirit Fruit!"

"Huh?" In a VIP room of the Black Seal Auction House, when Gu Xun'er heard the name, her face froze for a moment.

"What a pleasant surprise! I didn't expect the quality of the auction items this time to be so surprisingly high!" Zi Yan, who was next to Gu Xun'er, licked her lips with her little tongue, feeling a little moved.

"Thunder Spirit Fruit," Gu Xun'er said, looking a bit puzzled. "If I remember correctly, it seems to be a specialized spiritual plant. Generally speaking, it is more common in certain special planes."

The special plane that Gu Xun'er mentioned is naturally the Thunder Realm.

Lei Lie sold all the local specialties of his Leijie.
"I was wondering, what price will we have to pay in exchange for these good things?" Zi Yan was a little annoyed because she was a pauper.

Zi Yan looked at Xiao Yixian and Gu Xun'er around her. Xiao Yixian was obviously a pauper, and it seemed that only Gu Xun'er was a wealthy woman.

"Yes, it's too valuable, and I don't know how to trade it." Gu Xun'er nodded in agreement. It's true that she is a small wealthy woman, but she can't give away anything.

She threw the Wind and Thunder Art out in advance to exchange for some money in order to facilitate the subsequent transaction.

"How about buying on credit in the name of the spiritual craftsman?" Zi Yan suddenly had an idea and found that her idea was quite good.

"That's a good idea!" Gu Xun'er's eyes suddenly lit up when she heard that!

The corner of Little Doctor Fairy's mouth twitched slightly: "."

Will Mr. Jiang pay for today's consumption?

"Exchange it with Soul Pills." Little Medical Immortal said softly, "I still have quite a few left. For cultivators outside, Soul Pills are the most precious thing."

It was too difficult for a normal Dou Qi cultivator to improve his soul power. Therefore, among Jiang Lin's krypton gold gift package (Crystal Pill, Spirit Pill, Soul Pill), the Soul Pill was the most valuable.

"Yes, I have some here too." Gu Xun'er smiled slightly and took out the soul pills that she had not used up.

As a krypton gold player, Gu Xun'er would 'clear the daily mall' from Jiang Lin on time, so she had accumulated a lot of various elixirs.

Zi Yan looked at the large bag of soul pills in Gu Xun'er's hand and swallowed subconsciously. Then she smiled awkwardly and said, "Hehe. I've eaten all of mine."

As an ancient dragon of Taixu, Zi Yan has a very strong physique and absorbs the krypton gold gift package very quickly. Basically, she has no surplus pills.

"It's okay. If it's not enough, we can talk about it later. If there is really no other way, we can still cheat people under the name of spiritual craftsmen, right?" Gu Xun'er made a joke.

As a paying member of Jiang Lin Mall, it was not a big deal for Gu Xun'er to use Jiang Lin's name to buy something on credit.

"Okay, the auction has begun, and it's time to start spending money!" Gu Xun'er said a little excitedly when she saw the auctioneer knocking the gavel in the auction hall below.

"Now, let's welcome our first auction item, the sixth-grade elixir, the Imperial Pill!"

"!!!" Just the first auction item has already made everyone in the auction hall excited!
"Is this the value of the absence of the Spirit Master?"

"Be content! If the Master Spiritual Craftsman hadn't been silent for several months, would we have been able to see these good things? Then they must all be sent to the Master Spiritual Craftsman through internal channels!"

The Dou Qi monks from the Black Horn Domain present all understood that the main reason they were able to see what might be the highest quality batch of auction items in the history of the Black Seal Auction was that the "dam" of Lingjiang suddenly disappeared, and the water was released to them from upstream!
These people's guesses were quite correct, because under normal circumstances, if the people in the Black Horn Region obtained some rare treasures, they would definitely find channels to sell them separately to spirit craftsmen instead of taking them to auctions.

Because they can exchange with the spirit craftsman for rare items that are difficult to obtain in the outside world, including but not limited to spiritual pills, soul pills, crystal pills, fine mysterious weapons and other rare items!
"Now, let's welcome our second auction item! A seventh-level purple thunder stone!"

"Hey, teacher, we're here just in time. Wow, is this auction so amazing? Rare spiritual materials like the Purple Sky Thunder Stone have been released. We can't miss it." Xiao Yan, dressed in a black shirt and a bamboo hat, just arrived at the door of the Black Seal Auction Hall.

"This thing..." Yao Chen's expression changed slightly in Xiao Yan's body: "Isn't this something that came from the Thunder Realm?"

"No matter where it comes from, I can't let it go now that I see it. Let's see if I can replace it with better wings." Xiao Yan felt that the feather sheath wings on his body were outdated, and he also wanted to get better wings.

"And there are quite a few good things back there. Teacher, do you think I can get another map fragment here?"

"You're probably not awake yet?" Yao Chen mocked mercilessly.
