Chapter 28: Scorpion King Advances, Underground Auction

The aura of the ninth level of Qi Refining continuously emanates from the cold pool.

Chen Xuan's attention was also attracted.

His spiritual thoughts quickly fell into the depths of the cold pool.

The red-tailed scorpion king cub, which had been sleeping quietly, slowly opened its eyes.

The aura of the ninth level of Qi Refining is constantly emanating from it.

"Have you finally reached the ninth level of Qi Refining?"

Chen Xuan looked very happy.

Over the years, the realm of the Red-tailed Scorpion King cub has always remained at the eighth level of Qi Refining.

This time, after Chen Xuan gave the red-tailed scorpion king cub a beast-taming pill, the red-tailed scorpion king cub finally succeeded in advancing to the eighth level of Qi Refining.

For Chen Xuan, the advancement of the red-tailed scorpion king cub was of great help to him.

"Now, the day of the Taixuan Mountain Ascension Conference is not far away. The Red-tailed Scorpion King cub has successfully advanced to the ninth level of Qi Refining, which has greatly improved my combat effectiveness."

"By then, with only the help of the ninth-level red-tailed scorpion king cub, I will have a good chance of becoming a disciple of a large sect at the Taixuan Mountain Ascension Conference."

Thinking of this, Chen Xuan's heart was burning with excitement.

Being able to become a cultivator in a large sect is definitely a great thing.

From then on, it also meant that Chen Xuan had a very powerful backer. Even various cultivation resources were at his fingertips.

"Now, I just need to continue practicing in the cold pool and raise my realm to the eighth level of Qi Refining."

Chen Xuan withdrew his thoughts and smiled happily.

After communicating with the red-tailed scorpion king cub and letting it stay in the cold pool to consolidate its state, Chen Xuan also continued to seize the time to practice.

call!

In the cold pool, the vast spiritual energy was rapidly drawn by Chen Xuan.

The vitality in Chen Xuan's body also disappeared at an accelerated rate at this time, and his realm also improved accordingly.

Just waiting for Chen Xuan, who had been practicing in the Beast Taming Tower for several months in one breath, Chen Xuan, who was meditating, suddenly stopped practicing.

There was a hint of incredible surprise in his eyes.

"My breath is weak and my concentration is scattered. This is a sign that I am about to develop a mental disorder."

"It seems that I have been busy practicing recently and neglected to polish my foundation, which has led to the crisis at this moment."

"If that's the case, I can only come out and consolidate my foundation."

As he spoke, Chen Xuan leaped out of the cold pool.

After finding an open space, Chen Xuan took out a top-grade Zengyuan Pill and hurried to refine it.

call!

The extremely pure medicinal power was circulating rapidly in Chen Xuan's body.

The majestic vitality quickly spread out.

Chen Xuan's skin, which was like old tree bark, also slowly stretched out.

Chen Xuan's body was full of vitality again.

After Chen Xuan refined three top-grade Zengyuan Pills in one breath, the vitality in his body was fully restored.

"It is worthy of being a top-grade Zengyuan Pill. It has restored my lost lifespan so quickly." Chen Xuan said happily.

By practicing in the cold pool, Chen Xuan's realm improved rapidly.

But he also needs to pay a lot of lifespan.

Chen Xuan doesn't want to die before he successfully builds his foundation.

Right now, because of his unstable foundation, Chen Xuan didn't dare to continue practicing in the cold pool.

But Chen Xuan didn't plan to sit idle like this.

With a flip of his palm, a jade slip quickly appeared in his hand.

It was the shape-changing magic technique obtained from Master Hongyun’s cave.

"Comprehend the shape-changing spiritual art, maybe it will be of great use to me in the future."

Chen Xuan smiled slightly and quickly pressed the jade slip against his forehead. The contents of the Shape-Changing Spirit Technique flooded into Chen Xuan's mind like a tide.

……

In a flash, three years had passed in the Beast Taming Tower.

On this day, Chen Xuan, who was meditating, suddenly had an idea and activated the shape-changing magic technique.

hum!

Chen Xuan's aura dropped rapidly.

Soon, he reached the sixth level of Qi Refining.

After a while, Chen Xuan's appearance also changed greatly.

Now he has completely turned into a strange middle-aged man with a burly figure.

Only then did Chen Xuan smile with satisfaction.

"As expected of the Shape-Changing Technique, it is really effective in changing one's appearance and concealing one's cultivation."

Chen Xuan smiled and nodded.

With another thought, Chen Xuan's appearance and realm were completely restored.

After finishing all this, Chen Xuan directly called out the red-tailed scorpion king cub.

"Squeak!"

The red-tailed scorpion king cub screamed happily at Chen Xuan.

When it came to Chen Xuan, the red-tailed scorpion king cub was lying quietly on the ground again.

Chen Xuan carefully observed the Red-tailed Scorpion King cub and made sure that there was nothing abnormal after the Red-tailed Scorpion King cub's realm was improved. Then he smiled with satisfaction.

"Your realm has been completely stabilized at the ninth level of Qi Refining. It seems that you have not been lazy in your cultivation during this period." Chen Xuan said with a smile.

Taking this opportunity, Chen Xuan cooked a pot of blood-tooth rice for the red-tailed scorpion king cub and fed it to it, then continued to let the red-tailed scorpion king cub practice in the cold pool.

Chen Xuan flipped his hand and took out two storage bags.

The two storage bags contain the spoils that Chen Xuan has accumulated over the years.

Chen Xuan planned to find a place to sell these spoils directly.

"The last time I fought Jia Longhu, I lost my top-grade spiritual weapon, the Black Cloud Mysterious Iron Shield. This time, I must buy a new top-grade defensive spiritual weapon."

"Besides that, with my current worth, I need to consider a spiritual weapon for transportation."

Chen Xuan said secretly.

Chen Xuan is now at the seventh level of Qi Refining.

Among the many cultivators in the Qi Refining Stage, he is considered a minor master.

You can't always rely on your own two legs to travel.

It is really necessary to buy a good spiritual device for transportation.

What's more, the function of a spiritual weapon for transportation is not just for transportation.

It is even more necessary when escaping!

After everything was ready, Chen Xuan used the Shape-Changing Technique to suppress his realm to the sixth level of Qi Refining, making himself look like a young man in his twenties. Then he swaggered out of the training room.

The market town of Qixia is still bustling with activity.

Passing through the bustling crowd, Chen Xuan came straight to a busy street full of shops.

There are very few cultivators coming here.

However, when Chen Xuan passed by the door of a shop selling elixirs, he saw Niu Changgong and his son walking out of the shop happily.

"Brother Niu, what a coincidence!"

Chen Xuan greeted warmly.

Unexpectedly, Niu Changgong and his son stared at Chen Xuan vigilantly.

Soon, the father and son left in a hurry.

This left Chen Xuan speechless.

After a moment, Chen Xuan finally understood. He looked at Niu Changgong and his son in the distance with a satisfied smile.

"After using the Shape-Changeling Technique, my appearance has changed greatly. Niu Changgong and his son definitely didn't recognize me just now."

Chen Xuan smiled faintly, walked through the busy street, and went straight to the entrance of a remote alley.

After looking around for a while, Chen Xuan made sure that no one was following him. Then he went deep into the alley and knocked on the seemingly empty wall.

Squeak!

After a moment, a secret door opened.

A middle-aged woman in a purple dress looked at Chen Xuan coldly.

"If you want to participate in the underground auction, hurry up. I don't have time to waste here with you."
