Chapter 20: The Human Heart Is Sinister

As soon as this price came out, the huge auction hall immediately fell silent, and the pin drop could be heard. The scattered cultivators were already stunned, and even wondered if they were in a dream, even the forces of the seven great families and the four major sects such as the Lu family were secretly speechless, not wanting the strength of the Wang family to be so strong, and secretly comparing the situation of their own family, everyone was in danger. The Mo family's VIP room was also silent, and the atmosphere was terrifyingly silent. That Lin Pingtao was also condensed and silent.

After about half a cup of tea, a voice finally came out of the Mo family's VIP room: "Okay! Brother Wang is so bold, it seems that no matter what price my Mo family offers, you will follow." That being the case, my Mo family will no longer bid. A voice came from the Wang family's VIP room: "Don't dare." It's just that my ancestor loves this treasure very much, and when he orders it, he will definitely succeed, so he has to fight with Brother Mo, and Brother Mo forgive me. The people of the Mo family snorted coldly and said, "Fortunately, my ancestor did not specify this magic weapon, otherwise the younger brother really didn't know how to end it." The people of the Wang family smiled: "Brother Mo said that he laughed. Who doesn't know that the Mo family has a big business, and it is difficult for ordinary magic weapons to enter the eyes of the law, and they can cut their love to the younger brother, my Wang family has it, hehe!" The people of the Mo family did not say more.

Seeing this, Lin Pingtao dropped the gavel and shouted loudly: "The final treasure of this auction, the ice silver ring, the final transaction price: fifteen million spirit coins! Congratulations to the treasure owner for the successful bidding! This auction is over, welcome all seniors and Taoist friends to come back next time!" With the words, the guards slowly pushed the door of the auction hall open, and the crowd in the auction hall dispersed from all directions.

Xiao Tian and the three walked out of the auction hall with the flow of people, Mo Da did not shoot Tsukidan, he looked listless, Wu Yuemei couldn't see his expression under the veil, but he was also in a low mood, only Xiao Tian experienced this kind of occasion for the first time, and the final bid was also full of twists and turns, although he didn't have a clear idea of how much wealth fifteen million spirit coins were, but from everyone's reactions, he also knew that it was a great amount. He didn't have anything to buy, but after seeing it, he was in a good mood, but he couldn't be happy when he saw the situation of Mo Wu and the others.

After a while, Mo Daqiang smiled and said: "I didn't shoot it this time, so I can only find another opportunity, maybe I can shoot it next time." I don't know how long I've been in it, so I don't care about it for now, my brother will accompany me to drink some wine. Wu Yuemei said angrily: "Do you still have the heart to drink? I don't think you can wait for the opportunity, you Mo Great Monk should return to the underworld, just drink to death!"

Mo Da grabbed Xiaotian and said: "This mother-in-law, everything is good, but she doesn't forgive people with one mouth." I didn't die immediately, how do I know that there is no great opportunity waiting for me? "Dragged Xiaotian to find a restaurant, add wine and food, eat and drink. The first time Xiaotian drank, he only felt spicy and pungent, and there was no taste, and Mo Da didn't persuade much, so he poured himself a drink, and he was slightly drunk for a while, and he went home separately with Xiaotian.

After a few days, the turmoil of the auction gradually subsided, and a group of scattered cultivators returned to their former state, taking tasks to earn spirit coins, hunting for treasures, and in order to accumulate immortal cultivation resources, they were busy all day long like ants. Xiao Tian also went out several times with Mo Da and the others, and he also did some low-level tasks that were not painful, and he practiced hard in his spare time, and three years passed in a flash.

In the past three years, in addition to cultivating divine consciousness and refining the physical body, Xiao Tian has also strengthened the practice of divine powers, and gradually found that the cultivation of divine powers is very beneficial to the operation of the meridians.

He didn't know that only high-level cultivators had the ability to deal with the operation of the meridians, and ordinary qi refining cultivators would only run the known meridians according to the mental methods of their predecessors, and only when they cultivated to a deep level could they slowly explore new meridians. Because he is much stronger than a Qi refining cultivator in the cultivation of his divine consciousness, even if he is a foundation building cultivator, his divine consciousness may not be as strong as him, but because of his cultivation, the role of divine consciousness is not significant, but it is extremely beneficial for exploring oneself. If you change to another Qi Refining Cultivator, I am afraid that if you can't explore for three or five days, you will have your meridians deranged and explode and die. Naturally, he wouldn't tell Mo Da about this, and Mo Da never imagined that there was such a cultivation method in the world, so he cultivated all the way, and others didn't know anything, and he took it for granted.

Seeing that his cultivation had improved, Mo Da thought that he was cultivating the Divine Power and obtained the Fa, and he claimed that he had led Xiaotian's cultivation to the right path, so he was very happy and exhorted him. Xiaotian also understood that Moda was really good to himself, and he was grateful in his heart, and he didn't say anything, he continued to practice diligently, and he was often with Moda and his friendship deepened. Unconsciously five years have passed, and Xiaotian's cultivation has finally entered the third phase of qi refining, in Mo Da's words, at this time, he can already release his aura, which can be regarded as truly stepping into the threshold of cultivating immortals.

At this time, Xiaotian was already a twenty-four or five-year-old young man, and his long-term quenching exercise made his figure higher than ordinary people, not much better than Mo Da, his muscles and muscles were up, solid and abnormal, and he was stronger than Mo Da, but he was slender and not too conspicuous, but compared to those monks whose robe sleeves fluttered like immortals, it looked very different.

Over the years, due to his frequent haunts in the guild, he has gradually become familiar with some of the monks in Hongwu City, but his cultivation is low, and he is just familiar with others, and many monks don't know what to call it, and they are generally called "the refining monk who followed Moda", which can be regarded as another form of fame. Gradually, more and more monks know that there is such a monk who has poor cultivation but an unusually hard body, and has a fierce style, and sometimes he is willing to ask him to take the lead when he hunts fierce beasts, and uses him as cheap labor. He also has a good reputation among the monks, but this reputation is not glorious.

On this day, the peaceful cultivation life took a slight turn, and a small group of monks was attacked by fierce beasts at Biyuantan in the south of the city, suffering heavy casualties. According to the surviving monks, the beast had never been seen before, and it looked like a python, but it was unusually large, and it suddenly attacked from the bottom of the pool, and its body was only thirty or forty feet long when it was exposed to the water. The fierce beast was also at the level of the peak of the third level, but it unexpectedly swept most of the monks into the pool, and the monks were restricted in the water, so they were slaughtered by the fierce beast. When Mo Da and other high-level Qi refining cultivators heard this, they all became interested, and they made an appointment to go together to find out, since there are fierce beasts infested, maybe there are some treasures at the bottom of the pool. Because of the danger unknown, Moda didn't ask Xiaotian to go with him.

After Mo Da and the others left, Xiao Tian practiced for a few days, and when he was very quiet, he came to the guild to take over a task and move his muscles. As soon as I entered the guild hall and was browsing the task, I suddenly heard someone behind me say, "Brother Xiaotian, you are also here!"

Xiao Tian looked back, and it turned out to be an old acquaintance, it was Zhou Quanfeng. This person knew each other because of Moda, and later did many missions together again, and they worked happily with each other. Hearing Zhou Quanfeng ask, Xiao Tian replied: "I didn't know that Brother Zhou was also here, what a coincidence!"

Zhou Quanfeng said: "I have nothing to do today, I just happened to meet my brother, let's go, let's go have a drink first." Xiao Tian couldn't help but feel a little strange, but saw Zhou Quanfeng frowning at him, as if it was inconvenient to say something, so he responded: "Okay! It's rare that Brother Zhou has Yaxing, and he should accompany him." The two walked out of the guild, Zhou Quanfeng took Xiao Tian around three times, found a relatively remote hotel to sit down, and ordered a few drinks and dishes at random.

After the shopkeeper turned around and walked away, Zhou Quanfeng's lips and teeth moved slightly, and he said in a voice that was difficult for mortals to hear: "I stumbled upon an evergreen tree in the ten thousand pine forests in the east of the city a few days ago, and it was not picked before it was ripe. Today is ripe, I wanted to go to the guild first, if there is a task to go to the east of the city to do it by the way, but I met Brother Xiaotian, I think it is fate with you, you and I brothers just go together. The little genius wanted to answer, but Zhou Quanfeng said again: "Don't talk first, you must prevent the wall from having ears." Although this evergreen is not a precious medicinal material, it also has a little value, and if the news leaks, it will definitely be picked up first. You don't know what to do, today we just drink, tomorrow morning at the East City Gate, quietly go. Xiaotian understood, the two of them drank and ate food at the moment, chatted casually for a while, and left separately.

Early the next morning, Xiao Tian got up early and came to the East City Gate, but saw that Zhou Quanfeng was already waiting outside the city. The two didn't say much, and after walking a few miles to the east, Zhou Quanfeng grabbed Xiaotian's arm, took him through the sky, and quickly went to the Ten Thousand Pine Forest. When I flew a cup of tea, I arrived at the edge of the ten thousand pine forests. The two fell to the ground, and Zhou Quanfeng said: "The place where the evergreen flowers are located is deep in the forest, we can find it and find it, and there may be harvests on the way." Xiao Tian had no second opinion, and the two of them searched at will all the way and walked to the depths of the Ten Thousand Pine Forest.

I don't know how long I walked, but I had entered the depths of the dense forest, and there was no one around, not even the birds and beasts. Xiao Tian asked, "Brother Zhou, it's almost there, right?" Zhou Quanfeng said: "Well, it's not far away, it's ahead." Hey, what's that?" pointed to Xiao Tian's right front, and his tone was extremely surprised.

Xiao Tian couldn't help but turn his head to look, he didn't find anything abnormal, and was about to open his mouth to ask, when he suddenly felt a pain in his heart, a mouthful of blood spurted out, and the whole person flew forward a few feet and fell heavily to the ground.

He said in his heart: "It's not good, how can someone sneak attack here?" Before his mind was finished, he felt that someone had stepped on his neck with his foot, and heard a cruel laugh: "Boy, you can't think of it, right?"

Xiao Tian realized that it was none other than Zhou Quanfeng who attacked him!

For a while, he was angry and strange, secretly thinking that he and Zhou Quanfeng were also familiar with each other, and they had no grievances against each other, why did they attack themselves for no reason?

Zhou Quanfeng was very proud, and said in a good time: "Boy, you must be very strange why I want to deal with you, right? Today I will teach you a good way, that is, an inferior immortal cultivator with poor qualifications like you, it is best not to be delusional about having heavenly and earthly treasures, that will only bring you death!"

Xiao Tian was puzzled by what he said, and couldn't help asking: "Brother Zhou, are you mistaken, where do I have any natural treasures?"

Zhou Quanfeng said: "Hehe, you're not stupid, naturally you won't admit it, but do you think everyone else is stupid? Let me ask you, your cultivation has risen sharply recently, and in just a few years, you have entered the third phase of qi refining, yes or no?"

Xiao Tian still didn't know why, and replied: "What's so surprising about the third phase of qi refining, most of the monks of my age are at the level of the fourth stage of qi refining, and those with good qualifications have cultivated to the fifth stage of qi refining, and my third phase of qi refining is only at the bottom!"

Zhou Quanfeng snorted and said, "Boy, do you really not know how many catties and taels you have, or are you pretending to be confused with me? As far as you are concerned, such an inferior spiritual root, a cultivator has already promoted you, what kind of monk is you talking about with me? There is one thing you said is right, in terms of cultivation, at your age, the third stage of qi refining is already the bottom of the existence, but you don't want to think about it, you are also worthy of being called a monk? When you first came to Hongwu City, everyone knew that you were a half-cultivator at best, who would think that you were a monk? However, in just a few years, you actually went from having no foundation at all to entering the third stage of qi refining, didn't it take a great chance that you found the treasure of heaven and earth, and your cultivation progress could be so fast?"

Xiao Tian suddenly realized that Zhou Quanfeng only saw that his cultivation speed had improved in the past few years, so he secretly speculated that he had poisoned himself without knowing the truth, and he was angry in his heart, and said loudly: "I have succeeded in cultivation, but I have worked hard, how can I have any natural treasures? You have no real evidence, just treat me like this, where is your conscience?"

Zhou Quanfeng laughed: "What other evidence do I have to tell you? If I ask you directly, will you tell me? If nothing else, just by the skin you carry that can isolate the detection of divine sense, I know that you must have a treasure hidden in it." Otherwise, with a little casual cultivator like you, who has no sect and no sect, and whose cultivation is poor, what good things are worthy of coveted by others? As for conscience, the world of cultivating immortals talks about strength, and cultivation is respectful, as long as you cultivate to the point where you are done, it is your ability to kill people and seize treasures, who dares to say more about you? Do you think that everyone is like that big fool? Then everyone is still cultivating a fart immortal! Cultivating immortals and cultivating immortals is fighting for resources, and if I don't plunder your resources, how can I achieve immortality?

With a cruel laugh, Zhou Quanfeng continued: "Boy, I don't talk nonsense with you, you only have two ways to go now, one is to offer your treasure and obediently tell me where you found this treasure, I will abolish your cultivation and throw you to a mortal village and live this life; Dead or alive, the choice is yours!"

By now, Xiaotian has understood that Zhou Quanfeng will not let go of himself today. As for the two Lu Yunyun, it is just that he is insatiable, and wants to lie to himself to tell where the so-called treasure is, and then go to see if there are any other treasures, whether he says it or not, he will kill himself, otherwise if Mo Da only knows about it, he will be in a big disaster. Thinking of this, he was even more angry: "You want me to die, I won't let you have a good time, I will fight with you today!" While silently operating the aura, he said in his mouth: "Then, how do I know if what you say is true or false? If I tell you, you still want to kill me, won't I die in vain?"

Seeing this, Zhou Quanfeng only thought that Xiao Tian was already afraid of death and succumbed, so he smiled and said: "You tell me, I will naturally let you go and never break my word." Am I still afraid of your revenge? Hehe, hehe!"

Xiao Tian said: "How can I trust you if you are so ruthless and cruel to people without evidence?" Zhou Quanfeng was furious, and couldn't help but want to do it, but then he thought: "First lie to this kid to tell the truth, and then torture him, let him not survive, can't die, and then let him know how powerful I am!" Hold back his anger and say, "Then what are you going to do?"

Xiao Tian said: "You let me up first." Zhou Quanfeng said in his heart: "What if you let you go, can you still turn the sky up?" Retracting the foot that was stepping on Xiao Tian's neck, Xiao Tian stood up slowly, and then said, "First, you can't abolish my cultivation." Second, after I tell you, I will leave this Hongwu City far away and never come back, and you don't have to worry about me telling others about it. Zhou Quanfeng said in his heart: "It's just that this kid's qualifications are poor, isn't he really a fool?" Even if I promise you, can't I regret it?" If you tell you the truth, I won't embarrass you, so I'll let you leave this Hongwu City, but if I find out that you are back, I will kill you immediately!" Xiao Tian hesitated again: "Even if you say so, I can't believe you, you make a poisonous oath!"

Zhou Quanfeng saw him push three times and twice, his heart was furious, and he wanted to beat him to death immediately, but his face did not show it, and asked: "What kind of oath do you want me to make to be trustworthy?" Xiao Tian said: "You swear that if you break your promise, you will not be allowed to break through the foundation for the rest of your life, and even if you can break through, you will be killed by thunder." ”

Zhou Quanfeng was furious when he heard this. No matter what the monk does, he holds the belief that he is right, even if he kills people and grabs the treasure, he must think that this treasure is mine, and that person who gets the treasure and does not hand it over to me is a damn belief, so that the heart is barrier-free, and when he breaks through, he can be able to have no distractions and seek the Tao wholeheartedly. If you make an oath, although you can deceive yourself, but after all, it will leave a shadow in your heart, and this small knot may cause a catastrophe when you break through, resulting in a failure to break through, and you will be counterattacked and fall with hatred.
