After the black-robed woman paid the spirit stones, she put the three-colored toad and the iron cage into a leather bag and quickly walked out of the cave. The three cloaked cultivators also left the venue.
Wang Changsheng returned to his seat and immediately placed the jade slip that recorded the high-grade talisman refinement method between his eyebrows and started to read the contents.
After a while, he took off the jade slip with an excited expression on his face.
The jade slip recorded three kinds of high-grade talisman refining methods, namely the Wind Shadow Talisman, the Vanishing Shadow Talisman, and the Soul Destroying Talisman.
The Soul Destroying Talisman was needless to say. Wang Changsheng once used this talisman to kill a high-grade ghost. This talisman was the nemesis of ghosts and spirits.
The Wind Shadow Talisman could be used to teleport to any place within a thousand feet. It was a one-time consumable item that could only be used once.
The Vanishing Shadow Talisman was a concealment talisman. Once this talisman was used, even Deity Transformation cultivators couldn't easily detect it as long as they didn't use magic power. Moreover, the lower the cultivation of this talisman, the more amazing its effect would be. It could be used repeatedly and its power would be used up.
Among these three high-grade talismans, the Soul Destroying Talisman was relatively easy to refine. Although the materials needed to refine the Soul Destroying Talisman were somewhat rare, they could still be bought as long as one had enough spirit stones. The Wind Shadow Talisman required the skin of a seventh grade wind attribute demon beast and several kinds of rare refining materials. The most difficult one was the Vanishing Shadow Talisman. To refine this talisman, not only did it require the skin of an eighth grade demon beast and eighth grade spirit bone, it also required a rare millennium spirit wood.
With Wang Changsheng's current ability, it wasn't a big problem to collect the materials needed to refine the Soul Destroying Talisman and the Wind Shadow Talisman. As for the materials needed to refine the Vanishing Shadow Talisman, he couldn't do so at present.
While Wang Changsheng was thinking, the middle-aged man on the high platform took out the second auction item, a yellow jade ruler.
"The last auction item is the Yellow Ruler. The starting price is eighty thousand spirit stones. Each bid is increased by five thousand."
As soon as the middle-aged man's voice fell, someone immediately shouted a bid.
"Ninety thousand."
"One hundred thousand spirit stones."
"The Old Man bid one hundred and ten thousand."
After a round of fierce bidding, the yellow jade ruler was finally sold at a high price of one hundred and eighty thousand spirit stones.
Once the item was sold, the Core Formation cultivators left the cave without waiting for the middle-aged man to announce the end of the auction.
Wang Changsheng also left. He quietly followed behind the fat man from the Five Poison Sect.
Most of the Core Formation cultivators who came to participate in the auction had their faces covered. However, the fat man was very easy to recognize due to his fat build.
Wang Changsheng carefully discovered that the fat man did not interact with anyone else. He seemed to be alone. This made the killing intent in Wang Changsheng's heart grow even stronger.
The fat man walked along the street without stopping.
When he passed by an exquisite pavilion that was more than a hundred feet tall, he suddenly turned around and looked behind him.
Wang Changsheng was shocked, but he didn't stop and walked past the fat man.
The fat man looked around and then walked into the pavilion.
The signboard of the Gathering Immortal Pavilion hung on the pavilion. Judging from the name of the shop, it seemed to be an inn.
Wang Changsheng pondered for a moment and decided not to follow. He went straight for the exit of the market square.
Half a quarter of an hour later, Wang Changsheng stopped in front of a teahouse.
"Pure Heart Pavilion" was the name of this teahouse. The exit of the market square was less than two hundred meters away from the Pure Heart Pavilion.
Wang Changsheng asked for a side room. Through the open window, he could see all the cultivators entering and leaving the market square.
He ordered a pot of spirit tea and a plate of snacks and quietly waited.
Seven days passed. Wang Changsheng did not see the fat man's figure. He still patiently waited.
On the evening of the eighth day, the sky gradually darkened. The shops on both sides of the street hung up lanterns to illuminate the area.
At this moment, a dozen or so white-robed female cultivators suddenly walked out of a pavilion.
When Wang Changsheng saw this, he raised his eyebrows and his face revealed a trace of interest.
These white robed female cultivators all wore white cloaks that concealed their true appearances. Their height and figure were about the same. Their pace was very fast and they rushed to different places.
Some walked quickly into a street, some walked into a bookstore, a pill store, and some quickly left the market square.
Seeing this scene, Wang Changsheng knew that someone was being watched. He somewhat admired this person's wisdom. There were people coming and going on the street. Suddenly, there were more than a dozen people dressed the same way. It was very easy to confuse the target.
Soon, two black robed cultivators quickly chased out of the market square. It seemed that they were chasing after the white robed female cultivators who left the market square.
In the next few days, every evening, there would be more than a dozen female cultivators wearing the same clothes and cloaks coming out of the pavilion and quickly running to different places.
Every time a female cultivator left the market square, several cultivators would chase after them.
On this evening, the same scene appeared again. More than a dozen red robed female cultivators came out of the pavilion and quickly ran to different places.
When the two red robed female cultivators left the market square, several cultivators immediately chased after them.
A quarter of an hour later, a white robed old woman with a face full of wrinkles and a walking stick slowly walked out of the market square.
Not long after, a tall and thin middle-aged man followed her out of the market square. Not long after, a fat, round-faced man appeared in Wang Changsheng's line of sight.
Although the round-faced man was very fat, his pace was very fast. The magic power fluctuations coming from his body indicated that he was a mid Core Formation cultivator.
Wang Changsheng could tell from the round-faced man's build that this was the fat man from the auction.
"The mantis stalks the cicada, unaware of the oriole behind. I wonder who is the oriole?" Wang Changsheng softly muttered to himself. Finished speaking, he quickly walked out of the room.
As soon as he walked out of the teahouse, Wang Changsheng saw a green-robed old man with a ruddy complexion hastily running towards the market square's exit.
If Wang Changsheng remembered correctly, this green-robed old man was an Elder surnamed Feng of the Sacred Poison Sect.
When Wang Changsheng saw this, he frowned and pondered for a moment before quickly chasing after him.
After leaving the market square, he happened to see a green streak of light fly out from the nearby bamboo forest and soar into the sky.
Wang Changsheng stamped his foot on the ground and turned into a black streak of light as he chased after it.
Because he was worried that he would be discovered, Wang Changsheng didn't dare to follow too closely and followed from a distance.
A quarter of an hour later, the green streak of light landed in a dense forest.
When Wang Changsheng saw this, he landed on a slope several kilometers away from the forest.
As soon as he landed, Wang Changsheng restrained his aura and used Wave-treading Subtle Steps to rush towards the green streak of light.
After many years of practice, Wang Changsheng's inner strength was extremely profound. His current Wave-treading Subtle Steps was even faster than the Imperial Wind Technique.
After the time it took to finish a cup of tea, Wang Changsheng appeared in a dense forest. After a moment of hesitation, he released his spiritual sense and swept his surroundings.
Not long after, he withdrew his spiritual sense and turned into a series of afterimages as he rushed towards the east.
After a quarter of an hour, he faintly heard the sound of explosions ahead of him. It seemed that there were people fighting ahead.
After a moment of hesitation, Wang Changsheng took out a silver talisman and slapped it on his body, turning his entire body into a faint afterimage.
It was a high-grade talisman, the Yin Spirit Talisman. However, the talisman didn't have much power left and could only be used once or twice. If it weren't for the fact that he wanted to learn the rest of the 《Five Poisons Secret Tome》, Wang Changsheng wouldn't have been willing to use it.
Not long after, Wang Changsheng stopped and hid behind a towering tree.
On a plain five to six hundred meters away, three Core Formation cultivators were engaged in a battle of magical powers.
