During this period, Zhang Xingfeng spent his spare time refining divine artifacts. Fortunately, the materials needed for low-level divine artifacts weren't particularly rare, and Zhang Xingfeng had quite a few. Half a month later, Zhang Xingfeng had refined nearly a hundred low-level divine artifacts and more than a dozen mid-level divine artifacts—a truly astonishing speed. Fortunately, the Heavenly Venerate Leide Divine Realm had given orders, and Zhang Xingfeng didn't encounter any Divine Artifact Tribulation while refining the artifacts. Otherwise, simply resisting Divine Artifact Tribulation would have taken a lot of time and would have alerted many powerful figures.

Today, Zhang Xingfeng has prepared a banquet and is waiting for someone.

"Haha... Senior Carefree King personally sent an invitation to Haitian this time. Haitian is truly honored!" Lan Hai Tian said respectfully to Zhang Xingfeng from afar.

In the Spirit Realm, the difference between seniors and juniors lies in their cultivation level! It has nothing to do with the years of life. In Lan Hai Tian's mind, Zhang Xingfeng is a mysterious powerhouse who far surpasses him, so Lan Hai Tian naturally calls Zhang Xingfeng senior.

Zhang Xingfeng sat down at the stone table, waved his right hand slightly, smiled calmly, and said, "Mr. Lan Hai Tian, there's no need for formalities. Please sit down and let's talk!"

Lan Hai Tian immediately cupped his hands in greeting and sat down opposite Zhang Xingfeng.

Lan Hai Tian raised his glass and said, "Senior Carefree King saved my daughter Lan Xin's life, so I, Haitian, will first toast you!"

Zhang Xingfeng smiled, raised his glass, and drank a glass of wine.

Immediately, Zhang Xingfeng smiled mysteriously and said to Lan Hai Tian, "Mr. Lan, I've called you here today because I have a favor to ask you to do!"

Upon hearing this, Lan Hai Tian immediately chuckled and said, "Your Carefree King, please feel free to give any instructions. I will certainly handle this matter perfectly!"

"Sell some things!" Zhang Xingfeng said briefly.

Lan Hai Tian immediately laughed loudly, "Haha... Senior Carefree King, I dare not say anything else, but when it comes to business, I, Lan Hai Tian, am number one and no one dares to claim second place. Whether it is the Spirit Realm or the Realm of Divine Beasts, my channels are all open. Senior Carefree King, please tell me what you want to sell? I will definitely sell it at a price that will not disappoint you."

"A divine artifact!" Zhang Xingfeng said calmly, raising his glass and taking a sip of wine.

Lan Hai Tian's wine glass slipped from his hand with a thud, falling onto the stone table and splashing Lan Hai Tian everywhere. He stared at Zhang Xingfeng in disbelief for a long while before asking again, "A divine artifact?"

Zhang Xingfeng smiled and nodded, "Yes, it's the divine artifact! I've come to you this time hoping you can help me sell it!"

Lan Hai Tian's mind raced, pondering, "Hmm, for countless years, this divine artifact has been exclusive to the Vermillion Bird Clan. This Carefree King is indeed incredibly mysterious, actually possessing a divine artifact. Hmph, trading divine artifacts is a huge business! What business can compare to trading divine artifacts? Trading divine artifacts would also benefit my Lan family, not only strengthening our relationships with various forces but also enhancing our family's status! Hehe, there are no Lineage in the Spirit Realm that trade divine artifacts, but this artifact belongs to this Carefree King. If we mess it up, things will get complicated!"

Lan Hai Tian pondered for a long time before making a decision.

"Mr. Lan, what's your decision? Can this artifact sale help me sell it?" Zhang Xingfeng frowned. He knew that selling artifacts was different from other things. If Lan Hai Tian couldn't help, then Zhang Xingfeng would have no choice but to use the last resort—auction!

Lan Hai Tian suddenly looked at Zhang Xingfeng, his eyes gleaming, and said firmly, "Alright, I'll take this deal. However, this divine artifact is incredibly precious, and I'm worried that some extremely powerful forces might try to snatch it. I've never sold such a valuable treasure before, so... I have one condition!"

Zhang Xingfeng laughed heartily and readily agreed, "Alright, since you've agreed, Mr. Lan, feel free to make any requests. As long as it's within my power, I'll definitely grant them!"

The first step in the search for gentleness has begun to unfold...

Lan Hai Tian, "Divine artifacts are precious and will attract some super experts to fight over them, so... I hope that you will go to the holy land of the Spirit Realm, which is also the center of the Spirit Realm — Snowy Night City, to personally protect the divine artifact!"

Upon hearing "center of the Spirit Realm," Zhang Xingfeng's heart skipped a beat. "That's the center of the Spirit Realm, the place where all forces of the Spirit Realm gather. It'll probably be easier to find Rou there!"

"Alright! I agree to Mr. Lan's request!" Zhang Xingfeng said with a smile.

Lan Hai Tian was overjoyed. With an expert like Zhang Xingfeng Lan Hai Tian, he could sell the artifacts according to his plan!

Snowy Night City!

In the center of the Spirit Realm, the headquarters of almost all the various forces are located here. Zhang Xingfeng and *** Yan also arrived at the Lan Mansion a few days ago.

As expected of the richest man in the Spirit Realm Lan Hai Tian, even in the headquarters of various super-powerful forces, the Lan Mansion is still of Higher Vehicle. Of course, the Lan Mansion cannot compare with the mansions of the Five Great Families in the Spirit Realm.

At this moment, Zhang Xingfeng walked out of the secret room provided by Lan Hai Tian with a smile.

Zhang Xingfeng spotted Lan Hai Tian outside at a glance. Lan Hai Tian also noticed Zhang Xingfeng and immediately walked over, saying, "Senior Carefree King, someone has already come to buy the divine artifact, and they're even asking how much we can sell it for?"

Upon hearing this, Zhang Xingfeng was not in a hurry. Instead, he asked, "Who are they? Which faction do they belong to?"

Lan Hai Tian replied, "They are from the Jiao Family, one of the three major Lineage of the Natural Spirit Faction, and the leader is Jiao Jian, the heir of the Jiao Family! His power has also reached the King Tier."

Zhang Xingfeng asked in confusion, "Oh? The Jiao Family? Why are they in such a hurry? You only released the news yesterday, and they're here today. They seem to be very eager for the divine artifact!"

Lan Hai Tian laughed and said, "Of course the Jiao Family is eager for it. Among the Five Great Families, the most powerful is the Sheng Family of the Natural Spirit Faction. The ancestor of the Sheng Family is the current Spirit Venerable Kuishui, and the successor of the Sheng Family in this generation, the Earth Master, is the Spirit Venerable Chihuo!"

Upon hearing this, Zhang Xingfeng was stunned and exclaimed in surprise, "What! Two of the three Spirit Venerables are actually serving the Sheng Family!"

Lan Hai Tian nodded and said, "Yes, the Spirit Venerable Kuishui is Sheng Family. The Spirit Venerable Chihuo doesn't belong to any Lineage, but his only disciple is the heir of the Sheng Family, so of course he helps the Sheng Family. The Sheng Family is absolutely dominant in the Spirit Realm, and the second most Lineage is the Ying Family. After all, the Nine Nether Spirit Venerable is also Ying Family. As for the other three major Lineage, it's similar. They usually sell ten divine artifacts once every ten thousand years, with five going to the Sheng Family, two to the Ying Family, and the other three families each getting one!"

Zhang Xingfeng let out a long breath and said, "The Sheng Family is really Hegemonic Way!"

Lan Hai Tian nodded and smiled, "Of course, two of the three Spirit Venerables are from their family. Who has any objection to the Sheng Family's Hegemonic Way?"

Zhang Xingfeng nodded and said, "It seems that the reason why the Jiao Family is so anxious is that they hope to take this opportunity to acquire more divine artifacts so that their Lineage's power can be strengthened!"

"Senior Carefree King, since that's the case, how many divine artifacts should we sell to them?" Lan Hai Tian asked.

Zhang Xingfeng said, "No matter who buys them, I sell five lower-grade divine artifacts a month and auction off one mid-grade divine artifact at the end of the month. That's the rule. If they can afford these five lower-grade divine artifacts, let them buy them! Hehe, I don't care about the internal affairs of the Spirit Realm forces. Hmph, I'll just sell my divine artifacts!"

Jiao Jian sat in the living room, his brows slightly furrowed, clearly a little anxious.

"Young Master, the price of the Vermillion Bird Clan's divine artifacts is 10,000 yuan stones for low-grade artifacts and 100,000 yuan stones for mid-grade artifacts. Moreover, they are only sold once every 10,000 years. Our Jiao Family only gets one. So, what do you think the price of the divine artifacts sold by the Lan family will be? I'm a little worried that I don't have enough yuan stones to carry!" said a steward behind Jiao Jian.

Jiao Jian shook his head slightly and said, "I don't care about the spirit stones. After all, divine artifacts are priceless and hard to find. The spirit stones we brought are from our Lineage. I have quite a few spirit stones myself, and if we don't have enough, I can lend some. But what I'm most worried about is other Lineage getting involved. If they do, things will get very bad!"

The Five Great Families have dominated the Spirit Realm for countless years. Lineage assets far exceed those of wealthy Lineage like the Lan family. After all, their vast power and long-standing heritage are something that Lan Hai Tian could not match.

"Haha... Congratulations, Jiao Jian! The mysterious expert has agreed. You said you'd sell five low-grade divine artifacts a month, and anyone who comes to buy them will get one! First come, first served, it has nothing to do with Lineage power, of course, you'll need spirit stones. As for the price, this mysterious expert isn't greedy. According to the rules of the Vermillion Bird Clan, one low-grade divine artifact costs ten thousand spirit stones. By the way, Jiao Jian, how many do you want to buy?" Lan Hai Tian appeared in the living room with a smile.

Upon hearing this, Jiao Jian was overjoyed. He never expected to be able to sell five low-level divine artifacts at once, and most importantly... the price was only 10,000 yuan stones, without any increase!

"Alright, alright, Mr. Lan, here is 50,000 Yuan Stones, please accept it!" Fearing that Lan Hai Tian might change his mind, Jiao Jian immediately presented him with 50,000 Yuan Stones.

Lan Hai Tian smiled slightly. He understood Jiao Jian's intentions, and accepted the 50,000 yuan stones.

"Young Master Qiao, this mysterious master is waiting for you. When you get there, he will give you a divine weapon. He is currently in the back hall!" Lan Hai Tian said to the excited Jiao Jian.

Jiao Jian nodded repeatedly and, accompanied by Lan Hai Tian, entered the back hall.

In the back hall, Zhang Xingfeng leisurely sipped the fine wine from the Spirit Realm, secretly sighing, "As expected of the richest man in the Spirit Realm, he has practically amassed every kind of wine!" Lan Hai Tian treated Zhang Xingfeng with absolute courtesy, allowing him to drink whatever wine he wanted.

"Young Master Qiao, let me introduce you. This is Senior Carefree King, the seller of the divine artifact. Young Master Qiao, don't be confused. Senior Carefree King doesn't care about empty fame. His true strength has long surpassed the King Tier!" Lan Hai Tian explained to the bewildered Jiao Jian.

Upon hearing this, Jiao Jian immediately understood. "No wonder. I was wondering too. How could this so-called Carefree King, a King Tier expert, have so many divine artifacts? Moreover, I am also King Tier expert, yet I can't even sense the slightest aura of my opponents. Even my father Mid-grade Divine Human, I can barely sense a trace of his aura! It seems that this Carefree King must be some reclusive expert. Since he can sell divine artifacts, he must have a powerful background. Hmm, I need to get on his good side."

Jiao Jian's face immediately showed gratitude, and he said to Zhang Xingfeng, "Senior Carefree King sold me five divine artifacts this time, and at such a fair price, Jiao Jian am truly grateful! If Senior Carefree King needs anything in the future, please feel free to ask. Although my Jiao Family is not the number one Lineage in the Spirit Realm, it is still one of the Five Great Families that have been passed down for countless years. My Jiao Family will definitely help you with anything you need!"

At this point, Jiao Jian was no longer solely due to the divine weapon, but also to Zhang Xingfeng, a seemingly mysterious and unparalleled master!

Jiao Jian didn't know exactly how powerful Zhang Xingfeng was, but he knew one thing: Zhang Xingfeng was probably more powerful than the number one expert in his Jiao Family, who was also his father. After all, Jiao Jian couldn't even sense a trace of Zhang Xingfeng's aura.

The reason why the Jiao Family cannot compare with the Sheng Family and Ying Family is that they cannot match them in terms of top-level experts!

Zhang Xingfeng smiled and said, "Hehe, I'll thank Young Master Qiao for his kindness in advance. Here are five low-level divine artifacts, Young Master Qiao, please take them!"

Zhang Xingfeng casually flicked his wrist, and five low-level divine artifacts immediately appeared before Jiao Jian. Jiao Jian picked up the five low-level divine artifacts and examined them carefully. After a while, he exclaimed in amazement, "Ah, the craftsmanship of these artifacts is truly superb! Even the divine artifacts crafted by the Vermillion Bird Clan don't seem to be as perfect as yours, senior! I can feel the curves of these artifacts, the distribution of materials—it's simply flawless!"

Zhang Xingfeng smiled slightly, thinking to himself, "Hmph, the Vermillion Bird Clan is controlled by the Phoenix. How could they not make some mistakes when it takes them ten thousand years to forge a divine artifact? The Qi Cauldron, on the other hand, is controlled internally and is forged using the most perfect method. Not only is it faster, but the quality is also better!"

Zhang Xingfeng said, "These five are just low-grade divine artifacts. At the end of the month, Mr. Lan will arrange an auction at the Lan Mansion to auction off one mid-grade divine artifact. Of course, I will provide five low-grade divine artifacts and one mid-grade divine artifact every month!"

Upon hearing this, Jiao Jian was somewhat shocked. "Five low-level divine artifacts and one mid-level divine artifact every month! How many divine artifacts does he actually have? What is his background? Such a person, even if he is a reclusive master, should have some records! How come there is no record of this so-called Carefree King in the Lineage?"

A thought flashed through Jiao Jian's mind, and he immediately asked Zhang Xingfeng, "I wonder if the Carefree King could sell a few more divine artifacts to my Jiao Family? Of course, the price will only be higher, not lower!"

Zhang Xingfeng chuckled and said, "Young Master Qiao, if I wanted more spirit stones, would you only sell it for 10,000 spirit stones? And if five low-level divine artifacts were also auctioned, what do you think the price would be?"

Jiao Jian was speechless. This divine artifact was priceless; if it were truly auctioned, it would definitely fetch far more than 10,000 yuan stones. Zhang Xingfeng selling it for 10,000 yuan stones meant he really didn't care much about yuan stones. Suddenly Jiao Jian smiled bitterly, "With the current strength of the Carefree King, yuan stones are completely useless to him. Why would he care about yuan stones?"

Zhang Xingfeng suddenly smiled and said, "Young Master Qiao, I have a favor to ask of you. If you can do it, I will give you three mid-level divine artifacts!"

"Three mid-level divine artifacts!" Jiao Jian swallowed hard, his eyes widening in disbelief.
