After leaving the mountain, Fang Chen aimlessly walked around. As he walked, he recalled the process of his cultivation over the years.
His current cultivation was at the Mid Seventh Level of the Qi Hai Realm, and he couldn't make a breakthrough for the time being. However, he could cultivate the Fire and Water Sword Art.
The more he cultivated, the more Fang Chen discovered the profoundness of the Fire and Water Sword Art. Once the Fire and Water Sword Art reached the twelfth level, its power would definitely be extraordinary.
After walking for roughly ten days, he arrived at the Feng Prefecture City. The overlord force here was the Lesser Divine Peak.
Back then, in the Divine Illusion Space, the Head Disciple of the Lesser Divine Peak, Shen Jiang, was possessed by Protector Wu Xuan. Because of this, the Lesser Divine Peak suffered a huge blow.
After ten days of aimless walking, Fang Chen finally had a trace of understanding towards his cultivation. He finally had a preliminary plan in his heart, and he would strictly follow this plan for his future cultivation.
"Feng Prefecture City."
Fang Chen squinted his eyes as he looked at the city walls of the Feng Prefecture City.
After the death of the Tianhe Martial Marquis, no one from the Golden Guan Nation pursued Fang Chen. Aside from the Yellow Spring Sect, there was no need for him to worry about the other experts.
Fang Chen stepped into the Feng Prefecture City. He was prepared to rest for a day before starting his cultivation.
The current him wasn't strong enough to step into the Southern Mountain Land, so he still needed to cultivate in the Golden Guan Nation.
Fang Chen came to an inn and sat by the window. Just as he was leisurely drinking, he suddenly heard a few burly men chatting at a table beside him.
"Have you guys heard? The largest Alchemy Hall in the Feng Prefecture City will be holding an auction three days from now." A burly man said.
"Everyone knows about this. The Alchemy Hall holds an auction every year. This isn't big news, right?" Another burly man said.
"Yeah, the Alchemy Hall in the Feng Prefecture City is considered one of the top forces in the Golden Guan Nation. The pills produced by the Alchemy Hall are all very powerful."
"It's said that there are several peak Alchemy Grandmasters in the Alchemy Hall. Many experts on the Martial Marquis Ranking have come to the Alchemy Hall to obtain pills."
"It's a pity that we won't be able to participate in the Pellet Hall's auction."
"Although you guys know the gist of it, you guys don't know as much as me. My cousin works in the Pellet Hall, and he revealed some information to me. He said that aside from the Pellet Hall's products, there are also other pellets being auctioned," said the cultivator from before.
"Other pellets? The rules of the Pellet Hall have never changed. No other pellets will appear in their auction." A robust man was baffled.
"If it's an ordinary pellet, the Pellet Hall naturally wouldn't put it up for auction. But it's said that this pellet came from the Windcloud Martial Marquis," said the cultivator.
"What Windcloud Martial Marquis' hand?" Many of the men exclaimed.
Although the Fengyun Martial Marquis had been dead for many years, his name was still feared by many.
When Fang Chen heard the words' Wind and Cloud Martial Marquis', his interest was instantly piqued. He tilted his head and listened to the conversation of the burly men beside him.
Pellets from the Windcloud Martial Marquis … Fang Chen inwardly thought with a trace of a smile on his face.
When he first came to the Golden Crown Nation, he appeared in the southern region of the Golden Crown Nation. At that time, he coincidentally came across the Martial Marquis' tomb and obtained the inheritance of the Windcloud Martial Marquis, the Windcloud Sutra and Sky Extinguishing Scripture.
Furthermore, he also found out that the enemy of the Windcloud Martial Marquis was the Iron Marquis.
Since then, Fang Chen had been cultivating the Windcloud Sutra. But Fang Chen couldn't understand why the Windcloud Sutra didn't make any progress after reaching the eighth stage.
This was also the reason why he couldn't cultivate the Sky Extinguishing Scripture.
The Sky Extinguishing Scripture was definitely powerful. If Fang Chen could successfully cultivate it, his strength would definitely increase.
But because he couldn't cultivate the Windcloud Sutra to the ninth stage, he couldn't cultivate the Sky Extinguishing Scripture.
This had always been a problem that troubled Fang Chen. But when he heard that the Windcloud Martial Marquis' pellets would appear in the Pellet Hall's auction, Fang Chen's heart was moved.
'Can the Windcloud Martial Marquis' pellets allow my Windcloud Sutra to reach the ninth stage? 'Fang Chen inwardly thought.
Although Fang Chen felt that the chances were slim, there was no harm in participating in the auction since he was already in Feng Prefecture City.
If the Windcloud Martial Marquis' pellets could really allow his Windcloud Sutra to reach the ninth stage, then he would have made a huge profit.
In an instant, Fang Chen decided to participate in the Pellet Hall's auction three days later.
"Brother, may I know what qualifications are required to participate in the Pellet Hall's auction?" Fang Chen asked as he stood up and walked to the table beside him.
The cultivator looked at Fang Chen and said, "Ordinary cultivators need to pay an entrance fee of ten thousand high-grade spiritual stones. Only those on the Martial Marquis Ranking can participate for free."
After Fang Chen expressed his thanks, he turned around and left.
In these three days, the number of cultivators in Feng Prefecture City increased. Most of them came because of the Pellet Hall's reputation. After all, the Pellet Hall was a golden signboard.
When the day of the auction arrived, the entire Feng Provincial City was bustling with noise and excitement. In the center of Feng Provincial City, there was a very spacious square with temporary tents set up. It was the location of the Alchemy Hall's auction.
Outside the tents, there was a sea of people. Countless cultivators weren't qualified to participate in the auction, so they could only stand outside and watch.
When Fang Chen arrived outside the tents, he was shocked to see that the various Sects of Feng Prefecture City had all entered the tents. Soon after, he went to the guard's area.
"Pay ten thousand high-grade spiritual stones," the guard said coldly.
Fang Chen released his aura and enveloped the guard. In the next moment, the guard's face changed and he immediately let Fang Chen in.
Fang Chen easily entered the tent. When he came in, he realised that the space was huge, but it was already packed.
"There's so many people," Fang Chen said.
Soon after, he casually found a seat and sat down, waiting for the auction to begin.
During this time, Fang Chen discovered many cultivators from various forces. There were disciples from Feng Prefecture City's Overlord, Divine Peak, as well as disciples from other Sects.
After about ten minutes, Fang Chen's face finally turned serious. His eyes were filled with killing intent.
Beside Fang Chen, a man slowly walked past. If one looked at his face, they would think that he was an old man. However, everyone knew how terrifying this person was.
The Illusory Yin Martial Marquis was a powerful existence ranked 30th on the Martial Marquis List.
Although the Illusory Yin Martial Marquis was young, he was proficient in the art of illusion. No one had ever seen the true face of the Illusory Yin Martial Marquis. Under normal circumstances, the Illusory Yin Martial Marquis would meet people with this old face.
Fang Chen suppressed the killing intent in his heart. His eyes flickered as he looked at the Illusory Yin Martial Marquis.
When the Illusory Yin Martial Marquis entered the tent, the noisy hall instantly quieted down. Everyone's gaze was focused on the Illusory Yin Martial Marquis.
Among the cultivators that came to participate in the Pellet Hall's auction, the strongest one was the Illusory Yin Martial Marquis.
"It's the Illusory Yin Martial Marquis. I never expected that he would also come."
"Could it be that there's a pill that attracted the Illusory Yin Martial Marquis?"
"As long as the Illusory Yin Martial Marquis makes a move, I'm afraid that no one will dare to compete with him."
"The Illusory Yin Martial Marquis is too powerful. Even from so far away, I can still feel a trace of coldness coming from him." Many cultivators discussed in low voices.
The Illusory Yin Martial Marquis expressionlessly walked past Fang Chen and sat in the first row.
The appearance of the Illusory Yin Martial Marquis had undoubtedly ignited the excitement in the tent. Countless cultivators were looking at the Illusory Yin Martial Marquis.
After all, the top thirty of the Martial Marquis Ranking were usually elusive. It was impossible to see them normally.
"It's said that the Illusory Yin Martial Marquis was one of the five marquises that annihilated the Sword Reverence Sect." A cultivator whispered.
"Lower your voice." Just as he spoke, the cultivator beside him tried his best to remind him.
However, it was still heard by the Illusory Yin Martial Marquis.
The Illusory Yin Martial Marquis turned his head and looked at the cultivator who just spoke. With just a glance, the cultivator fell into an illusion.
Ah!
In the illusion, the cultivator actually killed himself with his sword and died on the spot.
