"You mean there are things similar to the 'immortal beads' among the monks you found?" Yize looked surprised. He really didn't know about this. They were just looking for clues. As he said, a Buddha Storage Pouch had a lot of things. I really don't know if the other person killed Storage Pouch in revenge and took Storage Pouch conveniently, or he came here looking for something.

Looking at the other person's expression that didn't seem to be fake, Wang Lang thought to himself, "Does he really not know? Or is this just a coincidence."

In fact, regarding recent events in the four major sect areas, the senior officials of the four sects already know that there is a force that is looking for something, and they have some clues, but they will not mention it to the monks below, but only strengthen the manpower investigation. At the same time, they begin to find the murderer in a targeted manner, and have traced and killed many people. At most, only the monks of the sect Golden Core Realm are vaguely aware of these situations, and those with statuses like Yize and Wang Lang cannot know.

However, during Wang Lang's recent investigation, he found that most of the people who were missing or killed were in important positions in the sect, and one thing that surprised Wang Lang was that among these people, they either had ball beads Dharma Treasure in their hands, or Things similar to orbs would be lost in the sects he was guarding after death. Although this was only two of the six sects he investigated, but coupled with the death of the Pure Land Sect Yiguang, he unconsciously wanted to make a connection to prove his guess.

After all, Wang Lang was Wang Lang. He was a proud man of his generation, and his intelligence was unparalleled by ordinary people. Although no senior officials of the sect gave any hints, and they were just people sent by the sect to collect intelligence information, he could still see some clues.

Yize looked at Wang Lang and finally said, "Uncle Yiguang's 'Immortal Bead' was really lost together with the storage bag. Is this a coincidence? After all, Buddhists have many round bead-type magic weapons, such as holding beads, hanging beads, and matching beads. If you use this as a magic weapon, it is normal for people to kill people and steal goods."

"Have you lost the string of Buddhist beads that Uncle Yiguang had on you?" Wang Lang asked. He knew that even if the monk's string of Buddhist beads was not Dharma Treasure, it was often an extraordinary spiritual treasure, something that could store mind power, and was a very important thing for the monk Pure Land Sect.

"That's not true, huh? Master Yiguang's Buddhist beads string has cultivated mind power for more than a hundred years. It is a treasure comparable to Dharma Treasure? Fellow Daoist Wang, what's the news over there? You can't have this idea just because it's just a stone bead. There are still coincidences., Maybe the other party is just killing people and plundering money, but they just don't know the magical effect of Buddhist beads." Yize was shocked at first, but he calmed down immediately. He was a Zen monk and was very good at meditation. Although he had an idea to report it to Master Song immediately, he still wanted to ask in detail.

Wang Lang smiled slightly, "It's not as simple as just one stone bead. In a sect I checked..."

In a separate courtyard in the north of Yuguan City, two Buddhas sat cross-legged facing each other.

"Senior Brother Liosong, do these Arhats really say that Junior Brother Yiguang's 'immortal pearl' is the target?" A slender old monk looked at a middle-aged monk opposite.

"Amito

</di>

Buddha, Junior Brother Yifa, this matter is certain. In fact, the temple has already known that the other party is looking for something similar to round beads, but this is a complicated matter for the Pure Land Sect. There are not tens of thousands but thousands of disciples in the temple who use beads as Dharma Treasure. Especially the Buddhist beads we cultivate are things that can store the power of mind. It is impossible for Wu Cong to start. It is impossible to collect all the Buddhist beads, round beads Dharma Treasure, and spiritual treasures. "Liao Song said with his palms together.

"Have there been any progress or news from the other three sects?" A pharaoh said, raising his long eyebrows.

"Junior brother, I know very little. Uncle Fan is in charge of everything. It is said that Wangliang Sect's uncle Mo Qing has recently retrieved an object from a Daoist temple, which seems to be the eyeball of a certain stone carving, and can allow a Nascent Soul to go there in person. You can imagine the importance attached to it, but I don't know the specific situation."

"In this way, the ball type Dharma Treasure that the other party is looking for really has a huge secret. Otherwise, how could he not hesitate to reveal his identity and kill people everywhere, especially the four sects. Alas, speaking of this, senior brother, Ichihiro Junior Brother, how could you..., you came here in such a hurry, I have sent people out to look for the clues you mentioned, but there is no such bitch as you mentioned." The old monk raised his long eyebrows, his eyes showing a serious look murderous intent.

"Alas, pink skull, fairy flesh and rotten flesh, but Junior Brother Yiguang has lost his mind. He was cast into the "Seven Mysterious Yin Technique" and fell into an illusion long ago, taking away all the essence and yang. This skill has been lost for thousands of years, and now it comes to the mortal world, but it is another catastrophe.

Junior brother, this person appeared nearby two days ago, and came here from Daning City. He was either here for something like the "Falling Immortal Pearl", or he was looking for a target to swallow the Jingyang to improve his cultivation. Therefore, you must strictly order the disciples in the temple to be on guard against any unusual people approaching him.

If it's the former, send a disciple to check all the stores and give me a result within half a day to see if there is anyone suspicious. As for the latter, my Pure Land Sect disciple is not allowed to go out alone at will in the near future, and all female cultivators entering and leaving the city must be strictly inspected. You and I should go out of the city now to see where the woman used to be. "

Li Yan didn't know that he was here and could still meet old friends, but even if he faced Wang Lang directly, he probably wouldn't be able to recognize who the other person was immediately.

Li Yan soon arrived at the auction house in the city. Looking up, it turned out to be very impressive. It was built with a huge amount of money. Although there were monks coming and going at the entrance of the auction house, not many people entered. The three big words on the door made Li Yan think "Singing Party" at first.

Li Yan knows what this means. "Singing clothes" is actually the same thing as "auction". The ancient monks who bid for and sold items were called "singing clothes", and the gathering places were called "singing clothes club" and "singing clothes field". These are words that do not use the bidding and peddling of clothes in the mortal world, while "auction" is what monks in foreign lands call it.

Dharma gradually adopted words that outsiders can understand as they interacted with demons, humans, and monks from foreign lands. However, in some areas with a long tradition, the term "singing clothes" is still used. The word "singing clothes" is used here, which only shows that the power behind this auction house is extremely ancient, and ancient power often represents power. If an auction is run by a powerful power, of course the treasures will be guaranteed to a certain extent, which makes Li Yan can't help but feel hopeful.

"The force behind the auction house here may be Pure Land Sect, but not necessarily, otherwise why would there still be such an ancient title!" Li Yan thought to himself.

There were only two Qi Condensation Stage monks standing at the door talking. Li Yan did not hesitate and just walked to the door to ask questions. Sure enough, the auction will be held the day after tomorrow. Most of the people who occasionally appear here are merchants who send items for auction the day after tomorrow. Others are the deacons at the auction. However, those two people only know about the specific items to be auctioned. There is indeed news about crystal bone water, which makes Li Yan happy.

After Li Yan asked for the information, he was somewhat glad that he came to ask for details first. Not just any monk can enter the auction here. First of all, one must have a cultivation level of the Foundation Establishment Realm or above; secondly, each person needs to pay fifty spiritual stones in advance. Regardless of whether you decide to auction or not, and whether you get what you want, the spiritual stones will not be returned. This alone will deter some monks who want to join in the fun and expand their horizons. When Li Yan asked, there were only seventeen people left. Li Yan secretly lamented how easy it was to make money at the auction.

Now that there is news about the appearance of "Crystal Bone Water", Li Yan had to hand over fifty low-level spiritual stones to the other party no matter how reluctant he was. Then the other party got a token engraved with a two-headed pangolin. Li Yan took another look at the reverse side of the token. There were three exquisite fonts on it, "Singing Club", which were the same as the three characters on the door of Li Yan's house.

"If Pure Land Sect hadn't bought the property, it would have been extraordinary to be able to open an exclusive business in such an important city of cultivating immortals." Li Yan thought to himself, and turned around to leave.

Next, of course Li Yan would not let go of the market here. He spent half a day going in and out of the market and shops in the city. Li Yan really got an unexpected harvest. He actually saw two auxiliary materials for refining "Guiyi Water-Parting Spike" and bought them immediately. As for the immortal cultivation technique and Dharma Treasure is also a dazzling array, with high and low quality. Li Yan turned around, but there was nothing that matched his own skills. Moreover, after careful inspection, most of them seemed to be bragging and inflating the power of the skills and Dharma Treasure. However, this is reasonable. Good things are usually bought as soon as they appear. After all, there are not many people who can pick them up. Although there are several kinds of Dharma Treasure, Li Yan thinks they are pretty good, but the price is ridiculously expensive. These are not necessary items for him, so he cannot waste spiritual stones.

In fact, Li Yan can buy two kinds of auxiliary materials here, but Sun Guoshu only occasionally saw one kind in the market near the Wangliang Sect. It cannot be said that the market in the Wangliang Sect is not as good as Pure Land Sect.

</di>

Yes, this is related to the incompatibility between the concepts of the two sects. When Li Yan was in the sect, Lin Daqiao and Wen Xinliang went to the Peiyangfang City near the Wangliang Sect. It was actually a small city founded by several immortal cultivators themselves, and Wangliang Sect He does not know how to build a city. At most, he will only station his monks in larger gathering places for cultivating immortals. However, Wangliang Sect, a large gathering place for cultivating immortals, is not allowed to be built near the mountain gate, so Li Yan needs to go far away to find it. But Pure Land Sect is different. They want to practice telekinesis. The closer the city is to the sect, the better. The more cities, the better. Moreover, Pure Land Sect will also spend huge sums of money to build temples and build new cities, so there will naturally be more cities.

In this way, when Li Yan was looking for some suitable things, he also selectively sold the things he had recently acquired but did not need. He actually got more than 30,000 spiritual stones. Most of the spiritual stones here came from the He brothers. Their magic pills were expensive. The most important ones were the green abacus and the damaged mace. From these two items, Dharma Treasure got more than 20,000 spiritual stones., Dharma Treasure is originally an extremely expensive thing, otherwise it is just thousands of spiritual stones. I think that ordinary monks can afford it after decades of accumulation, but the reality is not the case. Just refining the raw materials for an ordinary Dharma Treasure requires thousands of thousands, not to mention the expensive fee of paying the master of the weapon. A finished product is of course expensive, but what monks often find may not be suitable for their own use.

The green abacus was in excellent condition. Li Yan was sold to more than 18,000 spiritual stones after being transferred to several stores. However, the mace was damaged due to the Tiancang Qinglang Artifact Spirit inside it being self-destructed. However, the material of the mace itself was still left. If the demon cultivator can find a Demon Beast soul to re-sacrifice and nourish, it can still slowly recover. However, the process is a bit long, but even if the mace is melted and turned into a weapon refining material for sale, the price will not be too low. In the end, 7,000 spiritual stones were sold.

In the evening, Li Yan found an inn in the city and stayed. Very few monks were willing to live with their companions, unless they were cultivators such as couples who were extremely close to each other. Therefore, the inns for cultivators were mostly very large, often with a small courtyard or a single room. However, the price was also prohibitively expensive. If you couldn't bear to part with the spiritual stone, you could go out of the city and find a place to rest in the mountains.

Li Yan is not a spendthrift person, so he did not choose a separate courtyard, but just stayed in a single room in an inn. Even in this single room, there was only a bed, a table and a chair, which was enough for one night.

Ten low-level spiritual stones are required, plus the three low-level spiritual stones paid in the temple when entering the city. If you live in the city without eating or drinking, you will need thirteen spiritual stones on the first day. This is not easy for low-level monks or some Rogue Cultivator to enter the city easily.

However, since the spirit stone has been spent, even if it is a simple single room, the sound insulation protection array inside is still good. People inside cannot easily enter as long as there are no monks to attack. This fact makes Li Yan quite satisfied.
