Coming to Clear Wind City again, this time Yi Tian was familiar with the place. He first went to the spirit herb shop in the Hundred Herb Garden and bought all the Seven Star Gu in the shop in one go.
Of course, this time, Yi Tian still used the Thousand Faces Technique to change his appearance. He also changed his sect's attire into a set of coarse long robes. He was completely dressed like a rogue cultivator, so as not to attract attention.
Other than buying the Seven Star Gu, Yi Tian also went to a few other spirit herb shops to collect many sets of raw materials for brewing wine. The honey wine he brewed seemed to have a fatal attraction to the Cloud Dream Toad. He could use it as a lure to let it absorb more spirit energy from it and advance quickly.
But the head of the honey wine needed to be mixed with the Purple Cloud Honey. The Purple Cloud Bees he reared were not mature yet, so it was still too early to use the honey to brew wine on a large scale.
But this was not difficult to do as Qing Lianyun still needed his help now. He secretly planned to find a chance to ask her for some directly. He believed that with her current mindset, she would not be able to refuse.
After thinking of a strategy, Yi Tian began to buy wantonly in Clear Wind City. He still had a lot of spirit stones accumulated over the past hundred years. Although he had no way to earn spirit stones after entering the Taiqing Pavilion, there were still many loose cultivators living in Clear Wind City.
There were many underground black markets there and many goods of unknown origin could be sold secretly, but the price was lower than what was on the surface, at least a twenty percent discount.
After making a trip to the underground black market, Yi Tian packed up and sold off all the excess spirit weapons he had. Most of these things were spirit weapons of the Lone Wind Bandits. Some were even the private stashes of Lian Feixiong and the others.
But after looking at it, Yi Tian still kept the Roasting Flame Token that had been split into two. He had a complete piece with him, so this piece that had been split into two was not essential.
But he did not dare to let this thing out easily. It must be known that most of the things that came out of Mythical Flame Palace had special uses. At first glance, this Roasting Flame Token could be used as a defensive spirit weapon, but he had no idea what its real use was.
Thinking about it, he swept his gaze across the auctions in the city and came up with a plan. He did not know what it was used for, but someone would. It would be better to just take it out and auction it off to see how it turned out before making further plans.
He then took large strides towards the auction house in the Clear Breeze City and came to the auction house's consignment shop a short while later.
Soon, a cultivator with a similar cultivation base to Yi Tian came forward. After the two of them introduced themselves, Yi Tian came to know that the Tongtian Pavilion was behind the auction house. The cultivator who came to receive them called himself Shopkeeper Ji. If there was no accident, he should be Ji Wen's elder.
But what did this have to do with him? Now that he had used the Thousand Faces Technique, he appeared as another strange individual cultivator in front of others. He was not afraid of being recognized as an inner sect disciple of the Taiqing Pavilion.
At this point, he didn't beat around the bush. After stating the purpose of his visit, he handed over the two halves of the Blazing Flame Insignia to the other party for inspection. Unexpectedly, Shopkeeper Ji's expression didn't change much after receiving the item, but a glint flashed in his eyes. After a while, he asked, "Fellow Daoist, you look unfamiliar. Is this your first time here?"
"No, I've been here several times." Yi Tian flatly denied, "I wonder if these two pieces of the insignia can be used as auction items?"
Seeing that the other party seemed to be trying to figure out his background, Yi Tian directly changed the topic to the insignia, and his face showed a displeased expression.
"In that case, I have two options for Fellow Daoist to consider." Shopkeeper Ji was also a shrewd old man. When he was about to say something, his tongue rolled and he continued the topic, "Our pavilion can offer 10,000 merit points to purchase it directly. If Fellow Daoist agrees, we can immediately trade."
"What about the second option?" Yi Tian asked without hesitation.
Shopkeeper Ji's eyes darkened. He paused for a while before saying, "The second option is to directly participate in the auction. The starting price will be 700,000. Of course, after the transaction, Fellow Daoist will have to pay a 5% handling fee."
This sounded good, but Yi Tian secretly calculated that even if the price of the insignia was a million high-grade spirit stones, he would have to pay more than 50,000 handling fee. He might as well directly buy it and save himself the trouble.
After pondering for a while, Yi Tian said, "Let's choose the first option. It's better to directly purchase it from the auction house, but all of it will have to be traded with high-grade spirit stones."
Shopkeeper Ji was overjoyed when he heard this, and his face was also filled with joy. He said, "Fellow Daoist is wise. I'll go and get the one million spirit stones for you now."
"Wait." Yi Tian suddenly said.
"Why, Fellow Daoist, have you changed your mind?" The smile on Shopkeeper Ji's face froze.
"No, no, I also know that keeping one's word is the most basic bottom line of doing business." Yi Tian waved his hand and replied, "It's just that I don't know what use this insignia can be used for, so I hope Shopkeeper Ji can explain it to me. As for this insignia, it's a deal. I won't go back on my word even after I hear it. "
Only then did Shopkeeper Ji's expression soften. He took out the insignia and put the two halves together to form a complete insignia. Then, he sighed and explained, "This item's original name is the Blazing Flame Insignia. It's a token passed down by the Lifire Palace."
"It's an item of the sect. Even if we rogue cultivators get our hands on it, it might not be of any use?" Yi Tian said disdainfully.
Shopkeeper Ji sneered and said, "Fellow Daoist, you're wrong. The Lifire Palace has a secret realm for cultivation outside. It's called the Enchanting Paradise. There's Enchanting Jade Spring inside. If Spirit Severing cultivators can take a drop and refine it, they can accelerate the compression of their true essence and advance to the Spirit Severing stage. "
After Yi Tian heard this, a look of realization appeared on his face. It seemed that this Blazing Flame Insignia was the ticket. If he wanted to obtain the opportunity, he had to have the ticket first.
But in his heart, he was a little disdainful. This was most likely because the Lifire Palace had monopolized the resources and couldn't monopolize them, so they came up with this Blazing Flame Insignia to restrict others.
He was quite interested in the Enchanting Jade Spring Water. Fortunately, he still had a piece that he could use. Then, he pretended to be calm and said, "I'm just a rogue cultivator. It's unrealistic for me to compete with those sect disciples. It's better to exchange it for spirit stones. This matter is settled. Shopkeeper Ji, don't worry, I won't go back on my word. "
Only then did Shopkeeper Ji relax. After putting away the Blazing Flame Insignia, he took out a storage bag and put a million spirit stones inside.
Yi Tian wasn't in a hurry to collect the spirit stones. Instead, he asked, "I wonder if I can buy some spirit herbs from the auction house? After the price is set, I can deduct the price from these spirit stones. This will save me the trouble of going out to look for them."
"That's good." Shopkeeper Ji clearly felt that this was very beneficial to him. He put away the spirit stone bag and took out a jade slip. He handed it over and said, "Fellow Daoist, please look through it carefully. If there's anything you like, you can tell me directly."
