Hearing Tsukidan's name, Hua Jianbai next to him breathed sharply. He has been stuck in the consummation of Qi cultivation for many years, and his qualifications are low, and he has not been able to obtain the Zhuji Dan from the sect. The Tsukidan that has been circulated outside is very rare, it is unavoidable, and the price is amazingly high, and it is not at all something that a miscellaneous disciple like him can buy.

Now that it's hard to meet, how can you not let Hua Jianbai get excited. However, he is also self-aware and knows that it is something he can't afford, so there is nothing abnormal except for a moment of gaffe.

Mao Rui and the burn man looked at each other at the same time, and the burn man said in a deep voice: "How many?"

"Three. ”

Tianyuan Pavilion distributed five Tsukidans to him, but judging from Hua Jianbai's performance just now, Tsukidan should be extremely rare, so Mao Rui did not plan to sell them all, but kept two for backup.

The burn man pondered for a moment and said, "There is a small auction in Fang City at the end of the month, I can trust you to take it to the auction, I only need to draw some dividends." ”

The auction is not large, it is held once a month, and there are generally no rare items, and Tsukidan can be sold for a high price in the auction.

"Okay, that's trouble. Mao Rui didn't bother to take it to auction himself, took out the jade box with only three Tsukidan left and put it on the table, politely said, turned around and left.

The burn man was surprised by Mao Rui's departure, his eyes flashed, and when Mao Rui was about to leave the thatched house, he couldn't help but ask, "I have experience in absorbing the natal bone fire, don't you want to know?"

Mao Rui grinned, opened the door and walked out, leaving only two words echoing in the ears of the burn man: I don't want to!

He has already subdued the nameless karmic fire into his natal bone fire, and there is really no need to know the absorption experience of others. Besides, the shopkeeper's burn marks were obviously caused by absorbing the natal bone fire, and even if Mao Rui didn't have the natal bone fire, he wouldn't have come to him to learn from the experience.

Out of the thatched house, Hua Jianbai asked respectfully, "Where is Senior Brother going next?"

Mao Rui didn't answer directly, but turned to the Cao family brothers and sisters and asked, "What do you two have to buy?"

"Until I have cultivated to the perfection of Qi cultivation or even to build a foundation, there is no need for anything. Cao Ning replied truthfully.

Now that Cao Ning has practiced the ninth layer of qi, he is about to reach the tenth layer, and the next step is to accumulate spiritual energy until the Great Perfection, and then he can start to build the foundation.

The process of accumulating spiritual energy, as an alchemist, Cao Ning, can easily complete it with the knowledge obtained in the secret realm. As for building the foundation, with his talent, it is not too difficult, at most, it will take a little time, and he doesn't need to rely on the foundation building.

Cao Ling also shook her head, now that she is about to complete her Qi training, she will rely on the Zhuji Dan issued by the sect and given by Cao Ning, there is also a high chance of building a foundation, and there is no need for other items.

"What kind of place is there?" Mao Rui looked left and right, pointing to a street not far away and asked Hua Jianbai.

There are not many shops on that street, but there are a lot of people, and it is difficult to see the details due to the distance, but with Hua Jianbai's familiarity with this place, even if you don't look at it, you can know it clearly.

"It's also a stall area, and people who can't afford to hire a shop, or who occasionally sell something, set up a stall there. As long as order is maintained, the sect will not stop it, and it will not charge any fees. However, because of this, the quality of the items there is lower than that of the store, and there are even many fakes. ”

Hua Jianbai really knew it clearly, just glanced at the location that Mao Rui was pointing to, and said in detail.

"Let me ask you, will there be some illiterate people in the stall area who sell real treasures as bargains?" said Mao Rui after a moment's thought.

This situation is not nothing, after all, the fish and dragons are mixed, and the source of goods is also extensive, and it is normal to occasionally meet an illiterate.

"Yes, yes, but the odds are low. Hua Jianbai nodded and said.

In fact, Hua Jianbai will also go to the stall area when he is okay and try his luck. Although I have not found peerless treasures, I have occasionally encountered the purchase of some cultivation items at a price lower than the market price.

On weekdays, when I was a guide, I would also take customers to the stall area to have a look, but today Mao Rui made a generous move, thinking that he couldn't look at the things there, so he simply didn't mention it.

"Go, pick up the leaks. Mao Rui was in high spirits and took the lead towards the stall area.

Mao Rui has always been interested in picking up leaks, and at the beginning of the auction in Zhejiang Province, he turned around every day to see if there were any dusty treasures. However, Mao Rui seemed to be like picking up leaks, and he only heard that anyone bought something with a dozen spirit stones, which made the seller regret it, but he had never encountered it on himself.

Now another opportunity to pick up the leak appears in front of me, anyway, there is nothing to do at the moment, it is better to go over and shop.

However, Mao Rui seems to be really insulated from picking up leaks, and he walked back and forth in the stall area three times, and it was getting late, and he didn't have the slightest gain.

It was Cao Ning, who got separated from Mao Rui and them halfway, and found a sealed good Dan furnace, which he won at the price of an ordinary Dan furnace, which made Mao Rui envious.

There was no harvest for half a day, Mao Rui was completely dead, and he didn't have the heart to continue shopping, so he was ready to meet the territory.

Before leaving, Mao Rui took out a Tsukidan and asked Hua Jianbai, "Do you want it?"

Hua Jianbai looked at Tsukidan, who was close in front of him and could reach it as long as he stretched out his hand, and his breathing began to become short. Stuck in the consummation of Qi training for many years, he has never been able to build a foundation, if he says that he doesn't want to, it would be a lie.

But after many years of crawling at the bottom of the cultivation realm, he has long understood the truth that there is no free lunch in the world, and if you want to harvest, you have to pay.

After struggling inwardly for a while, Hua Jianbai clenched his hands into fists and asked in a low voice, "What do I need to give?"

"Hehe, it seems that you haven't been carried away by interests yet!" Mao Rui chuckled lightly and continued: "I need someone to help me find out the news in the sect, you are very suitable." As long as you are my servant, this Tsukidan is yours. ”

"I will not make a vow of master and servant. Hua Jianbai gritted his teeth and said.

"What is the master-servant oath?" Mao Rui frowned and looked at the Cao family siblings.

Cao Ling sighed secretly, knowing that Mao Rui had committed the mistake of ignorance again, so she had to explain it to him.

The Master-Servant Oath is similar to the Soul Oath, but more domineering. The Soul Oath only controls the life and death of the minions, and the minions are still able to act freely and think autonomously. And the master-servant oath, once signed, the slave will be controlled by the master to act, and in serious cases, even the mind will be controlled.

After listening to Cao Ling's explanation, Mao Rui pursed his lips: "What's the difference with a puppet, I can refine it myself, why do I need to control a living person." ”

Then he said to Hua Jianbai: "What I want to sign with you is a soul oath, not a master-servant oath, why not?"

"Good. Hua Jianbai thought for a long time before agreeing, and pointed at his forehead, separating a small group of soul light.

Put the soul light group of Hua Jian Bai into the sea of knowledge, and put it together with the soul light group of the Cao family sisters and brothers. explained some things to Hua Jianbai, left Zhuji Dan, and took the Cao family sisters and brothers back to the territory.

It was already late at night when he returned to the territory, so he asked the sister and brother to go back to the central area twice to continue to work as overseers, while Mao Rui himself took out the array materials at the edge and began to set up the array.

The first thing to be arranged is the Spirit Gathering Array and the Soul Locking Array, the Spirit Gathering Array absorbs the spiritual energy of heaven and earth into the territory, and the Lock Spirit Array makes the spiritual energy stay in the territory and not leak out.

Although Mao Rui's cultivation does not require too much aura, it doesn't hurt to have enough aura in the territory, at least the spirit plant or something will grow faster.

It is not simple to arrange the formation covering the entire territory, the scope of the layout formation is large, and it is impossible to view the entire layout, at least the current Mao Rui can't do it, and he must rely on his accurate calculations to deduce the position of materials.

Secondly, the amount required for each material is also difficult to control, and a little more or less of a certain material will cause the entire formation to not run smoothly.

Also, it's not like you can get someone to help with the monitor, you have to do it yourself. Otherwise, there is a slight deviation in the position of the material, and it is difficult to modify it when the time comes, when the whole picture cannot be seen.

Because you don't know which material is misplaced, you can only look at it one by one. Futile rework is just a waste of time and effort.

It would have taken Mauri three days just to figure out where the material should be placed, and that's just more if the monitor covers the entire edge.

Then it took another five days to put the materials in place, plus check errors. Then, it took three days to connect the materials in various places, and four days to depict the formation inscriptions.

It lasted for half a month, and only when the external aura was absorbed into the territory could the spirit gathering array be completed.

Then, after another fifteen days of similar steps, the Locking Spirit Array was successfully arranged.

Feeling the aura of the territory beginning to thicken, Mao Rui rubbed his temples, dug a small cave nearby with a magic weapon, and set up a defensive circle to rest casually.

In a month's time, the physical strength was not consumed much, but the energy was consumed too much due to the continuous calculation, and I needed to rest well.

This night, Mao Rui slept for three days and three nights before he got rid of his previous fatigue, ate something, and took out the materials to arrange a defensive array outside the Spirit Gathering Array and the Spirit Locking Array.

Without arranging some defenses, casual individuals can easily destroy the Spirit Gathering Array and the Spirit Locking Array, making Mao Rui's previous month's efforts in vain.

Even if there is a monitor to monitor the whole process, it is not possible, and when it is found and then rushed, people have already finished destroying and leaving, and it is too late.

This defensive formation arranged by Mao Rui is not only strong in defense, which can last for ten days in the hands of the foundation building consummation monk without breaking, but also has some simple means of attack. Therefore, it was more cumbersome to arrange, and it took a month to complete the formation, which was equivalent to the sum of the Spirit Gathering Array and the Spirit Locking Array.

After resting for a few more days, Mao Rui came to the edge of the territory to the center of the third of the place, took out the materials and continued to lay out the formation. The layer of formation at the edge alone is not enough, the materials purchased by Mao Rui can be arranged in several layers.
