The auctioneer was surprised to hear their intentions, “Water Spirit Pearl? How can we have such a divine item here? We only have Water Elemental Pearl here. Do you want it?”

Although the difference was only one word, they were worlds apart whether it was in terms of effect or other aspects.

Although Water Elemental Pearl was also rich in water element, it was extremely weak and many of them had impurities. It could barely be considered a substitute for Water Spirit Pearl.

Han Yue looked at the sixth elder, “I wonder if Water Elemental Pearl can replace Water Spirit Pearl.”

The sixth elder looked a little embarrassed, “If it was a Water Elemental Pearl, the effect would be greatly reduced. But there is no other way now.”

“How many spirit stones does this Water Elemental Pearl cost?”

Even though it was an incomplete substitute, the price that the boss of the auction house offered was too high for Han Yue and the others to bear.

When the seventh elder heard the price that the boss had offered, he could not help but blurt out, “So expensive? Why don’t you just go and rob? This is just a defective product of Water Spirit Pearl.”

The boss of the auction house revealed a look of disdain, “Even though it’s a defective product, it’s still a rare existence. Do you want it or not?”

The spirit stones that Han Yue had collected earlier, including Ye Xuan’s five hundred thousand, were all used for the construction of the sect. It was not easy to establish a sect.

Han Yue was trying to develop her own power in preparation for her revenge in the future, so she naturally couldn’t be careless in establishing the sect. It wasn’t for fun. Therefore, she had long run out of spirit stones.

She could not help but sigh at the price. Xie Yixuan wanted to share the burden, but he seemed to have thought of something and held back.

If he helped her at the last moment, she would definitely be very grateful. Then, their relationship would definitely be further improved. With this thought in mind, he did not say anything.

“If sect master really can’t make it, we can use other precious materials to replace it. I still have a few precious formation materials here. I can take them out.”

The interests of the elders and Tai Qing Sect were one. It could be said that they were bound together for good or bad. If Tai Qing Sect made a fool and lost face, it would not benefit them at all. Therefore, they were all actively thinking of ways.

“Maybe we can go back to the sect and gather some spirit stones. We might be able to do it.”

“That’s right. It doesn’t have to be a water elemental spiritual items, right? Can’t we use other materials as the formation core?”

The sixth elder looked a little troubled, “The five elements lack water, and the dragon eye needs some finishing. In order to activate the formation, it must be a water element spiritual item.”

Just as everyone was sweating profusely, Shen Hai looked around and suddenly said, “Why is Elder Ye not here?”

It seemed that Ye Xuan had not been with them since they went down the mountain.

Where was Ye Xuan at the moment?

Under the scorching sun, cicadas on the trees kept buzzing and rolling heat waves kept coming. Even in the cool Qixia mountain range, where the large trees blocked the glaring sunlight, one could still feel the rising temperature.

However, none of this affected Ye Xuan.

In the room he was in, there were a few blue crystals placed in every corner of the room. Cold air was emitted from the crystals and filled the room, causing the temperature to drop rapidly.

Moreover, the overflowing spiritual power was still nourishing his body, like a pair of cold hands gently caressing him.

A comfortable expression appeared on Ye Xuan’s face. It should be known that cultivators were also afraid of heat. They had not yet reached the point of ascension, so they also knew about cold and warmth.

“How can we live without air conditioning in such hot weather? Although we don’t have modern air conditioning, the effect of these Crystal Ice Chalcedony are even better.”

An idea flashed through Ye Xuan’s mind. He cut a few more pieces of fruit and placed them on the tray. There was a small pile of Crystal Ice Chalcedony below. In the blink of an eye, faint ice crystals formed on the fruits.

He didn’t know if it was because it had been nourished by the ice spiritual power, but the fruit was just crunchy when he bit into it and the taste was especially good. It was also especially sweet. The sweet juice of the fruit slid down his throat. It was no different from a bejeweled nectar.

“Cool!”

Ye Xuan couldn’t help but praise himself for his wit. He enjoyed the comfort of the “air conditioner” and “refrigerator” in the fantasy world.

The system’s introduction of Crystal Ice Chalcedony was very short, so Ye Xuan didn’t know how rare and precious it was. If Water Spirit Pearl was the best, then Crystal Ice Chalcedony was the best of the best, which was the kind that couldn’t be bought even with money.

If there were outsiders here, they would definitely be shocked by Ye Xuan’s actions. He was simply insanely rich.

Crystal Ice Chalcedony was a divine item! In the eyes of those ice attribute cultivators, it was simply the top existence. One pill was enough to benefit them endlessly, let alone so many.

Moreover, Crystal Ice Chalcedony could be used as a material in formations, alchemy, or weapons refinement. It could be said that it was an existence that everyone dreamed of and fought for.

Now, it was just an item that emitted cold air and iced the fruits with Ye Xuan, as if it had no other use.

When Han Yue walked in, she found that there was something wrong with this place. It was very cool inside, but the world outside was completely different. The two places didn’t seem to be in the same season.

As the cold air continued to rise, Han Yue’s eyes shifted slightly and saw an icy blue crystal in the corner. The power of the vast ice element coming from it shocked her.

“Is this… Crystal Ice Chalcedony?!” Han Yue’s pupils slightly constricted, and an impossible guess appeared in her heart. She looked around and found that ice-blue crystals were everywhere, as if they were free.

The most important thing was that a pile of the crystals were shaped into a tray, and it contained ordinary fruits that were not valuable.
