Chiyang School's inner disciples would hold several private exchanges and auctions every year. These events were usually conducted by bartering. If they really didn't have anything they wanted, they could choose to trade with spirit stones or not. The items they would trade on the spot were mainly pills or spirit tools.
The disciples of the Alchemy Hall and the Artifact Hall were usually the organizers of these exchanges because they would always bring some of the best items to participate in the trade. Their goal was to find some special materials or spirit herbs.
These private gatherings were usually held regularly in certain circles, unless the organizer had to go into seclusion or had a mission to complete, which was why the gatherings were suspended.
Today, the Alchemy Hall's core disciple, Wu Xing, was holding an exchange in his cave. The people who came were all new Foundation Establishment cultivators. Most of them were cultivators who lacked pills or had hidden injuries that needed pills to heal. There were also a few mid-stage Foundation Establishment cultivators who came because of Wu Xing's reputation. After all, he was from the Myriad Stars City, but he had obtained the highest ranking in Chiyang School and was currently the most promising newcomer in the Alchemy Hall. It was better for them to come early and get familiar with him.
Wu Xing's cave wasn't big to begin with. The main hall was about four feet in radius. Now that he had invited nearly eight fellow disciples, it was just enough to accommodate them. Halfway through the exchange, a message suddenly came from Wu Xing's sect jade token. The content was very simple: "I'm back. I'm coming over to your place." The message was signed by Yi Tian.
Wu Xing immediately stood up and asked his fellow disciples to calm down, saying that he was going to receive a guest. It was the first time that the crowd had seen Wu Xing stop the exchange to receive a guest. It seemed that this guest was also a powerful person. Only Ning Ning, who was sitting on the side, said disdainfully, "Isn't it just that bad guy coming back? Is it worth it?"
The eyes of the other disciples lit up. Since Miss Ning Ning also knew him, they might as well ask her directly. Maybe they could get to know him later.
Annoyed by everyone's questions, Ning Ning only said, "Don't hide the good stuff. Don't miss the opportunity when that person comes later." She then sat down angrily.
A burst of laughter came from the door, Yi Tian followed Wu Xing and slowly walked in. This was Yi Tian's first time visiting Wu Xing's immortal cave. His original intention was to ask Wu Xing how to find high-level cultivation soil for spiritual plants. Yi Tian himself urgently needed these things to transplant the Lionheart Grass and Purple Nether Fragrant Orchid in the cave residence. The seed of the Profound Sky Purple Gold Gourd still needed to be nurtured as soon as possible. After two hundred years, the Purple Gold Gourd would be ready for him to use.
He didn't expect that after returning, he would directly contact Wu Xing and be invited to the immortal cave for a chat. After entering, he found out that he had coincidentally joined in the middle of the private trade fair.
As soon as he entered the immortal cave, he saw Ning Ning sitting there. The inner disciples beside her also stood up and bowed. Even the mid-stage Foundation Establishment cultivators also bowed to Yi Tian as junior brothers. This was because they saw that Yi Tian's clothes were exactly the same as Wu Xing's. He was also a core disciple.
After greeting everyone one by one, Yi Tian directly took out a level 4 high-tier pill furnace from his storage bracelet and handed it to Ning Ning. This was originally part of the plan. Previously, he heard from Shen Peiqi that Ning Ning was unwilling, so Yi Tian had already prepared it. It was just that he hadn't encountered the right opportunity.
Ning Ning, who was originally unhappy, saw the pill furnace and her expression changed slightly. After receiving the pill furnace, she carefully examined it. The entire pill furnace was purplish-red in color and there was a phoenix on the lid. The workmanship was excellent and it definitely wasn't half-hearted work. After examining it, Ning Ning's face lit up with joy. "At least you know what's good for you. Your pill furnace is barely passable. I won't pursue the matter of you sneaking into Nine Heavens Hall."
Yi Tian smiled bitterly. "As long as you don't tell on me to Master."
Wu Xing first arranged for Yi Tian to sit, then moved closer to Ning Ning and teased, "Junior Sister, if you think this pill furnace is passable, Senior Brother is willing to exchange it with the Azure Dragon Furnace. I guarantee you won't lose out."
"Senior Brother, save it. Do you think I don't know what you're thinking? Let's compete again at the year-end competition. This time, your pill furnace's advantage will become a disadvantage." After saying that, Ning Ning picked up the Phoenix Cauldron and proudly showed it off.
The surrounding disciples finally understood that the person in front of them should be the true disciple Yi Tian, who was rumored to be in the Time Tool Hall at the beginning of the year. In Chiyang School's Tool Hall, other than the head of the hall, Ning Qingyuan, he was the second blacksmith who could refine level 5 spirit tools.
Now, the inner disciples next to them were excited. The person in front of them was a rich man, so he must have a lot of good things. No wonder Ning Ning said not to hide anything. If there was something good, just take it out and exchange it.
Seeing that there was a bit of an awkward silence, Yi Tian directly said to Wu Xing, "You guys continue. If there's anything good, just take it out."
At the door, Yi Tian had already told them that he had a mid-grade Universe Pill and asked Wu Xing to exchange it for him. However, when Wu Xing got it, he really wanted to take it for himself. This thing could not be bought without at least 20,000 spirit stones. Moreover, it was priceless. This was the first time such a thing had appeared in Chiyang School.
Seeing Wu Xing's behavior, Yi Tian took out another pill and gave it to him. He was taking care of his old brother. Wu Xing was also a veteran of the Jianghu for many years. He turned around and invited Yi Tian to take a seat while he sat on the lower seat. This time, the person who came finally understood.
After three breaths, Wu Xing also knew how to behave. He smiled and said, "Why don't you start first and liven up the atmosphere?" After saying that, he urged Yi Tian to take out something good.
Under everyone's expectant eyes, Yi Tian stretched out his hand. After a flash of light, everyone saw a set of silver-white body armor on the stone platform in the middle. The scales on the leather armor flashed with electric arcs from time to time. Yi Tian said, "This is a fourth-grade top-grade Electric Wyrm Leather Armor refined from the skin of a fifth-grade Electric Wyrm. Its defense is very strong and has the effect of lightning counterattack. Its characteristic is that it is resistant to lightning. If worn, it can reduce the damage by 30%."
As soon as he finished speaking, the exchange immediately went into an uproar. This thing was simply a heaven-defying existence for Foundation Establishment cultivators. It could directly transmigrate to the Jin Dan stage. If it was taken to an auction, the starting price would be at least 30,000. Every time the price increased by 10,000, it would be fiercely contested. No one had thought that they would encounter such a good thing today.
Looking at everyone's eager expressions, Yi Tian directly summarized his requirements. "Exchange the Electric Wyrm Leather Armor for top-grade spiritual plant cultivation soil. If it's mid-grade, you must have enough."
Everyone whispered and asked each other if their friends had any top-grade spiritual plant cultivation soil. No one cared what Yi Tian wanted this thing for. They only had eyes for the leather armor. If they missed this opportunity, there wouldn't be another one.
Wu Xing also looked at Yi Tian strangely. He even sent a sound transmission to Yi Tian, "When did you start planting spirit herbs? You won't be able to see any results without a few decades."
Yi Tian only transmitted his voice back. "I have my own uses. Help me ask if anyone else has a way to get some spiritual plant cultivation soil. I don't want low-grade. If there isn't any top-grade, at least mid-grade. Give me more."
Ning Ning's eyes also swiveled as she sized him up. Why did she feel that Yi Tian seemed to have changed his profession to become a spirit plant master?
After 15 minutes, no one was able to take out top-grade spiritual plant cultivation soil. Yi Tian was disappointed. He didn't expect this thing to be so scarce. Did he really have to go to a large-scale auction or go through the Qihuang Sect?
Seeing this, Ning Ning took out her jade tablet and sent a message. She also told Yi Tian to be patient and wait for a while.
15 minutes later, a cultivator knocked on the door of Wu Xing's cave residence. When Wu Xing brought the person in, everyone saw that it was Huo Jiawei rushing over like a gust of wind. He had a storage bag in his hand. As soon as he entered, he asked, "Where's the thing? Don't lie to me. I know the goods."
At this moment, everyone realized that this person must have some spiritual plant cultivation soil. Otherwise, he wouldn't have rushed over in such a hurry. Ning Ning said, "It's on the table. Check it yourself."
After Huo Jiawei's eyes moved to the Electric Wyrm Armor on the table, he couldn't take his eyes off it. He only needed to scan it with his divine sense to know that it was definitely good stuff. He glanced at Yi Tian, who was sitting on the main seat. Then, after Huo Jiawei glanced at everyone present, he knew that it must have been him who took it out. Last year, he heard that Yi Tian had refined two level-five spiritual weapons in a row in the Weapon Hall. Now, all the Foundation Establishment disciples in Chiyang School were jealous.
This time, Ning Ning was also helping. She knew that the thing Yi Tian was looking for was something that ordinary people couldn't have, so she directly contacted Huo Jiawei. Huo Jiawei was also a hothead. He actually dug up nearly a square meter of mid-grade spiritual plant cultivation soil from the spiritual plant garden, put it in a storage bag, and directly came to trade. In the end, even if he had to put up a scroll of his "Spiritual Plant's Essentials," he had to get that leather armor no matter what.
Seeing that he had gone a bit overboard, Yi Tian could only take out a level-four top tier "Gale Demon Wolf Sword" as an addition to the trade fair. He also emphasized that there was a wind-type spirit crystal from a level-five Three-Headed Hell Hound in the sword. This time, only spirit stones were used for the auction. This was to give face to Wu Xing and help him keep the situation under control.
After that, Yi Tian hastily told Wu Xing to check it out. He himself said that he had something to do and took the cultivation soil and left. Before Yi Tian had even walked out of the cave, he heard the people behind him quarreling. Huo Jiawei, that fellow, was the fiercest. Everyone agreed that he had already taken advantage of the situation, so he should be excluded from the spirit sword auction this time.
This was no longer something Yi Tian needed to pursue. After saying goodbye to Wu Xing, Yi Tian directly returned to his cave. There were still many things he needed to do. Two hours later, Yi Tian sat in the main hall of his cave on Young Eaglet Peak and played with the soil in his storage bag. He thought about the expressions of those people just now and felt a burst of laughter. Huo Jiawei was actually a level-three spiritual plant master who was in charge of growing the special spiritual plants that the sect's alchemy hall needed.
After reading the "Ten Thousand Spiritual Plants" and "Spiritual Plant's Essentials" a few times, Yi Tian suddenly became excited. Huo Jiawei's level-three spiritual plant master was quite something. He had actually thought of a Spirit Gathering Formation method. According to the description in the "Spiritual Plant's Essentials", Yi Tian refined a few more spiritual plant pots and carved a miniature Spirit Gathering Formation inside. A spirit stone trough for the Spirit Gathering Formation flowed out from the outside.
This way, he could use spirit stones from time to time to maintain the normal operation of the Spirit Gathering Formation. He filled the pots with medium level spiritual plant cultivation soil and then planted the Lionheart Grass, Purple Nether Fragrant Orchid, and Mysterious Sky Purple Gold Gourd seeds separately in the pots. According to the "Spiritual Plant's Essentials", this method could be used to grow spiritual plants that were level-five and above even with medium level cultivation soil. After using medium level spirit stones, Yi Tian also used the spirit spring water in the cave to irrigate the pots. Only then did he sit down to meditate and cultivate.
A month later, when Yi Tian woke up from his meditation, the first thing he saw was that the Lionheart Grass and Purple Nether Fragrant Orchid were full of vitality. However, the gourd seeds didn't move at all. After looking through the "Ten Thousand Spiritual Plants", Yi Tian knew that the Purple Gold Gourd needed medium level spirit liquid to continuously irrigate it. It would take about ten years for it to sprout, fifty years for it to sprout, and a hundred years for it to bloom. As for the gourd, it would take at least two hundred years for it to mature. This made Yi Tian so angry that he really wanted to throw it away.
Moreover, he couldn't put it in a pot. In the end, Yi Tian just had to transplant the seeds and find a suitable place to plant them next to the spirit spring in the hall. He carved a small Spirit Gathering Formation around it and drew a bit of spirit spring water to nourish the seeds. He used half of the spiritual plant cultivation soil and also used copper and iron essence to make a gourd cover and stand on top of the Spirit Gathering Formation. He hoped that one day, he would be able to see the seedlings break through the soil and climb up the vines.
After doing all this, Yi Tian returned to the inner room and began to cultivate. There was still more than a year until the Mystic Spirit Feast, so he had to prepare.
