Chapter 363

"Haha, I had absolute confidence in the first two Heavenly Tribulations, so I triggered it in 800 years and the other in 1100 years. Alas, the third Heavenly Tribulation came too quickly, completely beyond my expectations. I don't have enough experience, and I'm afraid I can't handle it with my own strength. The magic weapons in the sect are useless against the third Heavenly Tribulation, so I came to the Western Wilderness to see if I can get that magic weapon from the abode of the Yang God Spiritual Master that I found earlier. Only then will I have a chance to pass through it."

As he spoke, Daoquan Zi's smugness completely disappeared, and his face fell again.

Xiao Wen asked curiously, "Senior, can't we use a formation to delay the Heavenly Tribulation? I've heard that some Primordial Soul Spiritual Masters can delay it for tens of thousands of years."

For Shi Xuan, this was not just a rumor. He had seen it with his own eyes. It was the White Bone Spiritual Master who was hiding in the Inner Sea of the Fallen Star Sea. Shi Xuan was also very curious about this. The ancient books of the sect were vague about the Primordial Soul Spiritual Master's Heavenly Tribulation. Presumably, only when Shi Xuan reached the Primordial Soul Stage would he be able to see the details. This was probably to prevent the disciples from biting off more than they could chew.

"Alas, the first two Heavenly Tribulations can be delayed by a formation, but it's useless for the third Heavenly Tribulation. This is because the third Heavenly Tribulation originates from the Taoist Heart and is only inside the body. It's called the Nine Flames Burning Heart Tribulation. Unless I master Blood River Ghost's Blood Shadow Spirit Incarnation Great Technique, or other similar immortal techniques, I can only wait for the Heavenly Tribulation to come. "Alas, I didn't expect my cultivation to improve so quickly after guarding the Return Dragon Temple in the Central Region for 100 years. In less than 1,000 years, the Nine Flames Burning Heart Tribulation will come."

Daoquan Zi sighed. For a Spiritual Master who had gone through the first Heavenly Tribulation, he could already predict people and events, especially those related to him. He could do it on a whim, so Daoquan Zi was sure that the third Heavenly Tribulation was coming.

As they stood in the hall and talked, many Jindan Grandmaster and Spirit Soul Stage cultivators came one after another. However, they didn't dare to disturb Shi Xuan and the others. They respectfully took their clothes and masks and went deeper into the White Jade Jing to change.

For these Divine Soul Stage cultivators, and even many Golden Core Grandmasters among the rogue cultivators, they had cultivated for hundreds of years and had yet to see a living Primordial Spirit Daoist Master. Therefore, they were very curious about Daoist Quanzi, but they did not dare to use their Divine Sense to investigate him. They could only use their eyes to sneak a few glances at him to see if there was any difference between a Primordial Spirit Daoist Master and an ordinary cultivator. Perhaps they could find a direction for their own cultivation.

When Feng Anbai heard about the Nine Flames Burning Heart Tribulation, he blinked his eyes. "Senior, could this be something like the Heart Tribulation? We can borrow a magic treasure that can suppress inner demons." Xiao Wen also nodded. It seemed that both of them were thinking about the Violet Heart Primordial Yang Pendant from the Medicine King Sect. If Daoquanzi managed to overcome the Heavenly Tribulation with the help of the Medicine King Sect's magic treasure, he would owe the Medicine King Sect a huge favor. If the Medicine King Sect was in trouble in the future, he would naturally lend a helping hand.

Of course, this was based on the fact that the Medicine King Sect only had one Yang God Spiritual Master, which was slightly weaker than the other sects. If the Medicine King Sect had several Spiritual Masters, they would definitely not lend them out. They would be more than happy to see the Spiritual Masters of the other sects die under the Heavenly Tribulation.

How could Daoquan Zi not understand what they meant? He laughed and said, "The Purple Heart Primordial Yang Pendant is first-class in suppressing inner demons. That's why Blood River Old Devil wants it so urgently. However, although it has some use in dealing with the Nine Flames Burning Heart Tribulation, it's not very effective. It's better than nothing. The Mysterious Yin Seven Water Pearl in the Yang God Spiritual Master's Cave is the best magic weapon to deal with the Nine Flames Burning Heart Tribulation. "

Xiao Wen and Feng Anbai sighed in disappointment. Shi Xuan comforted him with a smile, "Actually, Senior, you don't have to be so anxious. With your strength, you have survived two Heavenly Tribulations in less than two thousand years. You should be able to survive this Heavenly Tribulation safely."

Daoquan Zi shook his head. "Actually, surviving two Heavenly Tribulations in two thousand years is not too fast. For cultivators who practice Yin Yang and Thunder and Lightning techniques, the first Heavenly Tribulation is not difficult. They usually only need a few hundred years to survive."

After a pause, an expression of yearning and envy appeared on his face. "Tsk tsk, especially for cultivators who have inherited Taoist Yu Yu's orthodoxy and learned the supreme immortal method of Yin Yang transformation, the first two Nine Heavenly Tribulations and the Heavenly Thunder and Earthly Fire Tribulation are even good opportunities for them to practice. In ancient times, there was a mighty person called Qingyun Zi. After he achieved the Primordial Soul, it only took him five hundred years to trigger the Heavenly Tribulation, and then he survived the Nine Heavenly Tribulation and the Earthly Fire Tribulation in one go. Unfortunately, this orthodoxy has been lost. What a pity. "Yingzhou Sect was passed down from the Middle Ages, and could even be traced back to ancient times, so they knew many secrets.

Shi Xuan looked calm on the surface, but he was shocked inside. He did not expect the Treasure Record to be so powerful. Actually, there were some clues from the Treasure Record. For example, the Yin Yang Chaotic Divine Light needed to be tempered by the Thunder Tribulation, and it could only be practiced by experiencing the Yin Yang transformation of the Thunder Tribulation. "Senior, does this mean that after inheriting this orthodoxy, the first two Heavenly Tribulations were not dangerous?"

"How is that possible? It's just that it's much easier than others. There's no need to accumulate for thousands or tens of thousands of years and not dare to go through the Heavenly Tribulations. Any Spiritual Masters who underestimate the Heavenly Tribulations will vanish under the Heavenly Tribulations. Alright, quickly change your clothes. I still have to rush to that cave abode after watching this auction. " Daoquan Zi urged Shi Xuan and the other two while he took a set of clothes and a mask. "Yes, there are no secret marks on them, and they are quite good at hiding their aura. The mask can also block other people's divine senses. You guys can rest assured."

For other sects, it would be the biggest joke in the world to not participate in an auction after achieving the Primordial Soul. Only the Yingzhou Sect, as they mainly cultivated with discipline, could understand why Daoquan Zi had not participated in an auction.

Since Daoquan Zi had guaranteed it, Shi Xuan was not worried that the host would do anything to the robe and mask. He nodded at Xiao Wen and Feng Anbai, took a set, and walked into the depths of White Jade Jing.

There were countless pavilions in the depths of White Jade Jing. As soon as Shi Xuan stepped into a corridor, he felt his vision blur. A half-open door appeared in front of him, and there was no one inside.

Shi Xuan thought to himself, "Looks like they made this arrangement to avoid bumping into other cultivators." Then, he walked into the room and closed the door. After inspecting the room and finding nothing out of the ordinary, he put on the robe, put on the mask, and walked out.

On the way back to the main hall, Shi Xuan encountered a few cultivators who were also wearing black robes and wooden masks. He tested them and realized that he could not use his divine senses to check. As long as the other party did not speak, he could not discover who they were. Of course, it was easy for cultivators to change their voices. They only needed to control their throat muscles, and there was no need to use any spells.

…

Night fell, and the sky was filled with dark, leaden clouds.

On the wide ground at the edge of the desert, there were hundreds of cultivators wearing black robes and strange wooden masks gathered together. In the pitch-black darkness, they did not seem to be affected at all. They walked in a relaxed manner, and they did not speak to each other. The whole place was abnormally quiet.

When they arrived at a large rock, everyone stopped because there were three cultivators standing on it. One was a middle-aged cultivator wearing a purple robe, the other was a beautiful young woman in a crimson palace dress, and the last was a sloppy young cultivator wearing an apricot robe with ordinary facial features.

Shi Xuan listened to the middle-aged cultivator's self-introduction and said, "Fellow cultivators, I am Ouyang Tuo of the Itinerant Cultivator Alliance. This is Misty Fairy Fang Ximeng of the Three Mountains Sect. This is Purple Cloud Sword Marquis Hua Yu of the Cloud Sky Sect. Today, the three of us will be hosting the auction. "

Although Shi Shuan had never seen these three people before, now that he heard the introduction, his impression of them matched up with the real person. There was no need to mention the Itinerant Cultivator Alliance. The Three Mountains Sect and the Cloud Sky Sect were mid-tier sects with a long history in the Western Wilderness. It was even said that the Cloud Sky Sect was related to the great ancient sect, the Cloud Sky Dao. And these three were all mid-tier Jindan Grandmaster. Ouyang Tuo was one of the nine grand elders of the Itinerant Cultivator Alliance. Ten years after Xuan Yi Zhen's death, another Jindan Grandmaster joined the Itinerant Cultivator Alliance. Fang Ximeng and Hou Huayu were grand elders of their respective sects.

"The first item is a high-tier magic tool, Five Flames Universe Net. It is made from Sun True Fire, Azure Fire, Qian Yang True Fire, Star True Fire, and Purple Thunder Dazzling Fire. It is at the peak of the 8th layer. If there is any fellow daoist holding this item, please come forward and display it and shout out the base price. "Ouyang Tuo's voice was deep and sonorous.

A black-robed cultivator flew out from the crowd and landed on a large stone. He opened the wooden box in his hand and revealed a net composed of different colored flames. There were crimson red, golden fire, purple red, and so on. He said in a hoarse voice, "The base price is 20 high-tier spirit stones or a metal-attribute flying sword at the peak of the 8th layer."

Shi Xuan knew that the auction would start with the most inconspicuous item in the auction, so he leisurely watched others call out bids. To Jindan Grandmaster, a magic tool at the peak of the 8th layer wasn't anything at all. But to a Divine Soul realm cultivator, an extra magic tool was an extra bit of strength. This was especially true for a cultivator whose life magic tool hadn't reached the 7th layer.

"21 high-tier spirit stones." Not too far away to Shi Xuan's right, someone shouted out with a hoarse voice like a duck.

Someone immediately replied in a gloomy voice, "22 high-tier spirit stones."

…

After several rounds, an 8th layer magic tool at the peak of 24 high-tier spirit stones had been raised to 27. But at this time, a cultivator beside Shi Xuan shouted out, "Celestial Geng Metal Astral Sword, perfection of the 8th layer."

The black-robed cultivator on the stage happily said, "Fellow daoists, if no one can bring out 30 high-tier spirit stones or another metal-attribute flying sword at the peak of the 8th layer, then the Pentaflame Universe Net will trade for this Celestial Geng Metal Astral Sword."

After a moment, seeing that no one else shouted out a bid, the black-robed cultivator and the other person exchanged their high-tier magic tools. At the same time, the owner of the Pentaflame Universe Net gave Ouyang Tuo two high-tier spirit stones.

Afterwards, several magic tools and materials were auctioned out one after another. Unfortunately, Shi Xuan didn't need them.

"The next auction item is today's tenth item, a heavenly treasure ranked phoenix blood." Ouyang Tuo's deep voice caused Shi Xuan's spirits to rise.

Originally, Shi Xuan was worried that the first item to come out would be the invisible divine iron. If that happened, then it was likely that he would end up in a situation where the other party didn't want the phoenix blood. Because of this, Shi Xuan let out a sigh of relief. After all, the phoenix blood was what he was fighting for. Even if the invisible divine iron came out, it would be useless for the time being.
