Chapter 145 Hua Family Birthday Banquet
Faced with the invitation from the Hua family, Li Guanxuan did not refuse.
After all, Hua Bai Zhenren is not only the leader of Qingzhu Sect, but also the lord of Huajing Xiancheng. In the central area of the northeast of Xianxu, his reputation is quite good.
Many cultivators are on good terms with him, and he can be regarded as another "Cao Feng".
Moreover, this is a personal invitation from Hua Bai Zhenren. If Li Guanxuan refuses to go, he will appear a bit arrogant.
"...Three hundred years old three-leaf golden mushroom, the main medicine of Jinyuan Dan, the starting price is 15,000 low-grade spirit stones, and each bid shall not be less than 500."
When the host on the auction platform announced this item, Li Guanxuan immediately raised his card to bid:
"20,000."
The normal price of three hundred years old three-leaf golden mushroom is about 20,000 to 22,000.
The other three auxiliary medicines add up to about 20,000 to 30,000 spirit stones, mainly depending on the age of the spirit medicine.
Spiritual medicines of different years naturally have different prices.
Therefore, the market price of an ordinary Jinyuan Pill is more than 50,000, and the highest is 55,000.
If the quality reaches the middle grade, the price is 60,000.
The price of the top-grade Jinyuan Pill is basically around 70,000 to 75,000.
As for the fine and top-grade ones, the price is 100,000 or more...
Jinyuan Pills of this quality can no longer be purchased with spirit stones.
It depends on the relationship with the alchemist, or barter.
Hearing that someone directly quoted the price of 20,000 spirit stones at the beginning, many cultivators turned their heads to look at the VIP desk with a little surprise in their eyes.
"Who is this person?"
Some uninformed cultivators looked puzzled.
"Li Guanxuan."
"It is said that he refined a top-grade Jinyuan Pill in Qing'an City, two pills in one furnace."
"It was also because of these two top-grade Jinyuan Pills that the demon Chen Yinshan formed a mid-grade Jindan and killed Sang Shaoxian, who was powerful enough to burst out the mid-to-late Jindan combat power..."
"..."
After hearing about Li Guanxuan's deeds, the cultivators who had just arrived in this area were all stunned.
Two top-grade Jinyuan Pills in one furnace?
He also helped a demon successfully form a mid-grade Jindan?
But some people looked calm and there was no ripple.
In the vast world of immortal cultivation, there are more than just Li Guanxuan, a quasi-third-level alchemist.
There are also some alchemists who know how to refine fine Jinyuan Pills.
For them, alchemists who mix with demons are not good stuff.
Ling Jiansheng and Yun Li of Mingyue Sword Sect were also in the auction venue.
Now they have all broken through to the late stage of foundation building. In addition to facing the current difficulties, they have to start preparing materials for forming pills.
After all, this is a hurdle.
Just like a Qi-refining cultivator needs a foundation-building pill to break through.
Ling Jiansheng's eyes showed a hint of fighting spirit.
He had lost to Li Guanxuan before, and he always hated evil and thought that all demons should be killed.
Li Guanxuan helped the demon Chen Yinshan to break through the pill formation, which was not the work of a human cultivator at all.
However, he couldn't cause trouble at the moment, so he could only retract his gaze, look at the auction table, and raise the sign:
"Twenty-one thousand."
"Twenty-two thousand."
Li Guanxuan said.
"Twenty-three thousand." Ling Jiansheng's face was calm.
Li Guanxuan frowned slightly.
He didn't have many spirit stones now.
The previous spirit stone reserves were all spent on magic tools, otherwise he wouldn't have so many flying swords.
Wen Rongxin said softly, "Husband, forget it. I don't really need elixirs to break through. Sister Zhiqiao still has a long time to form a pill. If we encounter materials for the Golden Yuan Pill later, it won't be too late to buy them. There's no need to waste spiritual stones on this now."
"Sister is right. With the Golden Yuan Pill materials given by the Hua family, we are almost there." Qin Jiyue nodded slightly and comforted.
Li Guanxuan knew that they were all giving him a way out.
Because if he wanted to refine a fine Golden Yuan Pill, he would definitely need materials to practice.
Therefore, the more materials for the Golden Yuan Pill, the better, so that he can be 100% sure to refine a fine Golden Yuan Pill.
If he is skilled, he may be able to refine a top-grade Golden Yuan Pill.
But the refining of the top-grade Golden Yuan Pill is too difficult.
In the entire northeast of Xianxu, according to Li Guanxuan's understanding, there are only three third-level alchemists who can refine top-grade Golden Yuan Pills.
Li Guanxuan now has three top-grade spiritual medicine materials given by his eldest brother.
Among them, the three-leaf golden mushroom reached 560 years old.
He used one in a hurry before, so one furnace can produce two high-quality Jinyuan pills.
But these spiritual medicine materials were collected by Li Guanyuan and prepared for people to refine the best Jinyuan pills.
If one furnace does not produce two or three high-quality Jinyuan pills, it will be a shame for these high-quality materials.
Because of this, Li Guanxuan wanted to practice first, and then start to refine high-quality Jinyuan pills after he really mastered it.
After all, he once promised Cao Feng that he would give him a high-quality Jinyuan pill.
After thinking for a long time, Li Guanxuan nodded slightly and gave up the bidding.
"Two for the Hua family and one for Cao Feng... It's almost enough. Fang Xingzhi is estimated to have dozens or hundreds of years to reach the great perfection of foundation building. His Jinyuan pill will be refined for him in the future. Now we have to solve the Jinyuan pills of Cao Feng and the Hua family."
After analyzing it in his mind, Li Guanxuan did not plan to collect materials for Jinyuan pills anymore.
As long as he can improve the quality of the Jinyuan Pill, there will be people who will give him spiritual medicine materials.
Besides...
Doesn't Ruan Dajiang also have a piece of information?
Li Guanxuan smiled, and his heart suddenly felt more at ease.
In the end, Ling Jiansheng spent 25,000 low-grade spiritual stones to take a photo of this three-leaf golden zhi.
Ling Jiansheng glanced at Li Guanxuan and felt disapproving.
The consumption of one hundred thousand mountains probably emptied Li Guanxuan's family fortune.
…
Next, even if the auxiliary medicine of Jin Yuan Dan appeared, Li Guanxuan did not bid.
This made Ling Jiansheng a little surprised and confused. As a quasi-third-level alchemy master, he was not interested in the materials of Jin Yuan Dan?
Did the other party just raise the price?
Ling Jiansheng frowned slightly. The character and reputation of an alchemist who hangs out with demons are indeed worthy of consideration.
After a few auctions, Li Guanxuan lost much interest when he saw that they were all second-grade high-quality materials.
Liu Xiaoxian can get these materials for him, so there is really no need to waste spiritual stones fighting for them here.
Moreover, if someone else is in urgent need and you accidentally raise the price, it will also cause dissatisfaction from others.
After staying at the auction venue for more than an hour, Li Guanxuan left with his three wives.
As the host, Hua Yongyang personally led Li Guanxuan and his family on a sightseeing trip.
"Such a strong sword spirit."
Qin Jiyue looked outside Huajing Immortal City with a slight surprise on her face.
"This is the leader of the Mingyue Sword Sect, Yu Hongyao."
Hua Yongyang narrowed his eyes and explained: "Some time ago, she was forced by the three major demon sects to produce fake elixirs. Now she is so powerful that she plans to join forces with the clan leaders to fight against the three major demon sects...
At this birthday banquet, she probably planned to come and join forces with others to preserve the inheritance of Mingyue Sword Sect. "
Speaking of this, Hua Yongyang reminded: "Fellow Taoist, please be careful. The Mingyue Sword Sect is a group of people who hate evil and have no brains. It is best not to talk to them at the birthday banquet.
But please rest assured, fellow Taoist, you are here personally invited by the head of my family. Our Hua family is fully responsible for your safety. Anyone who brings displeasure to fellow Taoist is also dissatisfied to the Hua family. "
When he said the latter sentence, Hua Yongyang looked serious.
This is what he strongly requested.
He also received the approval of the clan leader and great elder.
After all, Qin Jiyue is a demon monk, and there is a blood feud between the Mingyue Sword Sect and the Demon Sect, so there is no guarantee that there will be any unpleasantness at the birthday banquet.
Seeing that Hua Yongyang handled everything thoroughly, Li Guanxuan nodded slightly and said with a smile:
"Let fellow Taoist worry about it."
"No, that's putting it mildly."
Hua Yongyang said: "If our Hua family needs to develop, we need a second real person. The Jin Yuan Dan you refined can make Chen Yinshan form a golden elixir. Then at least it can also make my Hua family's foundation-building great perfection form." True elixir.
Only when the second true elixir appears will our Hua family prevent incidents like the 'Thunder Fire Sect' from happening again. "
Li Guanxuan smiled.
It seems that the Hua family has been psychologically affected by the Thunder Fire Sect.
But yes, as the saying goes, once bitten by a snake, you will be afraid of the rope for ten years. If a family that cultivates immortality does not know how to prepare for a rainy day, it will not be far from destruction.
I have to say that Master Hua Bai is quite capable.
…
On the day of the birthday banquet.
Li Guanxuan drew a third-order wind and thunder talisman and presented it as a birthday gift.
After the person reading the congratulatory gift called out the third-level wind and thunder treasure talisman, many people looked sideways, with a hint of surprise in their eyes.
"Or a third-level Talisman Master?"
"It is rumored that his talent for cultivating immortals is not good, but his talent for skills is very outstanding. I didn't expect that to be the case."
"Characters from the Sword Immortal Li family, even those who are outsiders, are somewhat different from the lower-level casual cultivators..."
"..."
The monks who attended the birthday banquet were filled with emotion. Li Guanxuan's name was now famous in the surrounding fairy cities.
However, when the human monks learned that he helped the demon to form a middle-grade golden elixir, they would feel a little uncomfortable.
After all, in their eyes, Li Guanxuan was a human monk.
Helping demons become stronger is undoubtedly endangering other human monks.
In December, it snows heavily.
During this time, Li Guanxuan also heard a lot of voices about "helping demons become stronger".
He didn't give much explanation for this.
These rumors and gossip will disappear completely after a while, and not many people will care at all.
What's more...
To make friends with monks, you also need to divide people.
Not everyone can make friends.
Under Hua Yongyang's guidance, Li Guanxuan saw an old man with an immortal demeanor.
The other party was dressed in Tsing Yi and had a warm smile on his face. Although there were wrinkles and grooves on his face, he could still feel that he was full of energy and did not look old.
"I've met Senior Hua."
Li Guanxuan bowed his hands.
Wen Rongxin and the other three ladies also received the gift.
Master Hua Bai nodded slightly, stretched out his hand and said with a smile: "Master Li, please take a seat."
Li Guanxuan sat next to Hua Yongyang, and the three Wen Rongxin ladies sat behind him. The spiritual energy in the hall turned into white mist, making the place feel like a fairyland.
As the birthday banquet began, many qi-refining dancers entered the stage and danced gracefully. The melodious music slowly sounded, colorful ribbons danced in the clouds, and many monks expressed their congratulations to Master Hua Bai.
At the birthday banquet, Li Guanxuan saw Hua Luyao. She was once a direct line fairy of the Hua family and the apple of her eye. Now she has entered the late stage of foundation building.
Of the four great fairies, now only Hua Luyao, Yun Li, and Zi Xi of the Alchemy Cauldron Sect are left.
"Master Li, I would like to propose a toast to you."
Hua Luyao came over, holding up a glass of wine, and said with a smile.
Out of politeness, Li Guanxuan also returned a glass, but did not say much, at most they were just nodding acquaintances.
"Master Li Dan, I am also a talisman master. I just saw your wind and thunder talisman, which has infinite mysteries. Can I ask you for advice?" Hua Luyao asked sincerely.
Hearing this, Qin Jiyue and Song Zhiqiao looked at each other, their faces became a little strange.
The wind and thunder talisman is a third-level rank. What can Hua Luyao, a second-level top-grade talisman master, see?
Could it be...
The Hua family wants to win over their husbands in this way?
But at such a banquet, Qin Jiyue and Song Zhiqiao couldn't say anything.
Besides, their Li family is not a place where anyone can come in casually.
"I will record some experiences in my spare time. They are all recorded here. I will give them to the fairy." Li Guanxuan smiled, his fingertips passed over the storage ring, and handed over a book.
Hua Luyao was stunned for a moment, but to avoid being rude, she had to accept it with a smile: "Thank you, Master Li."
Hua Yongyang on the side shook his head gently.
Hua Luyao used to look down on those who practiced dual cultivation, but now she came to toast. If there was no guidance from others, no one would believe it.
"Master Li, can I drink here?"
At this time, Ruan Dajiang came over with a wine glass.
From the beginning of the birthday banquet to now, Ruan Dajiang has been drinking alone in the corner and rarely talked with others.
Until Ling Jiansheng came to find him, Ruan Dajiang had no choice but to come to find Li Guanxuan.
Li Guanxuan also noticed it.
After all, the purpose of Mingyue Sword Sect coming to attend the birthday banquet is very clear-looking for allies.
A well-known casual cultivator like Ruan Dajiang is naturally the target of Mingyue Sword Sect's wooing.
"That's not right. Fellow Daoist Hua is the host here, and we are just guests." Li Guanxuan said with a smile.
He also noticed Ruan Dajiang's situation, but in order to avoid being targeted by the Mingyue Sword Sect, he still distanced himself from them.
Hua Yongyang immediately understood Li Guanxuan's intention and said with a smile: "Brother Ruan, sit down. It just so happens that I want to learn some swordsmanship recently. Taking this opportunity, I hope Brother Ruan can help me solve my doubts."
Hearing this, Ruan Dajiang was stunned for a moment, but he grew up in the secular world and had some insight, and immediately understood what the two meant.
"Thank you."
Ruan Dajiang's face, which was always silent, smiled slightly, and then sat next to Hua Yongyang and chatted with him.
...
Ling Jiansheng frowned when he saw this scene.
"Don't think too much. Ruan Dajiang is a casual cultivator. He is most afraid of participating in such a sect war. It is reasonable for him to refuse."
Yun Li didn't have any thoughts, but she could see that Ling Jiansheng had a lot of opinions about Li Guanxuan.
After all, when he was in the Chilian Mountains, Ling Jiansheng, who was known as the top swordsman of the Mingyue Sword Sect, was directly defeated by the unknown Li Guanxuan.
This was a very difficult thing for the always proud Ling Jiansheng to accept.
"This Li Guanxuan, after helping the demons to form pills, is still so popular." Ling Jiansheng drank a sip of wine and said lightly.
Yun Li sighed, she didn't know what to say.
People who are trapped in self-entanglement are the most difficult to persuade.
