After a long time, Ling Xiao finally opened his eyes.
Gayaro immediately asked: "How is it?" There was a rare trace of nervousness in his voice.
Ling Xiao slowly stood up and walked out of the shack after hearing that. He casually lifted a rock that was lying at the door. He easily picked up the stone that weighed fifty to sixty kilograms and threw it beside the sleeping young Turtledove Eagle.
"Very good." Ling Xiao kept his words short and his face unconsciously revealed a satisfied smile.
The effects of this Bone Ablutionary Dan Bead, which was only a sliver away from reaching Rank 2, would not disappear in a short period of time. At the very least, in the next month, it would slowly but surely transform his body, further strengthening it.
At this moment, the results of Gayaro's investigation came out. He said with satisfaction: "I didn't expect that the first time I refined this pill, it would have such an effect. The Heart of Fire is indeed powerful."
Ling Xiao's smile froze on the corner of his mouth: "The first time concocting a pill?!" Then why do you act as if you are extremely proficient in pill refining?
As if realizing that he said something, Gayaro quickly tried to salvage the situation, "I said it's my first time concocting the Bone Ablutionary Dan!"
"Is that so?" Ling Xiao was skeptical.
Gayaro coughed twice, and awkwardly changed the topic, "Since the pills have already taken effect, you now have the quality of a beginner cultivator, so you won't die because you can't bear the Qi of Heaven and Earth's explosion. Then, listen carefully to what I'm going to say, it's related to your future cultivation."
Ling Xiao suppressed his messy thoughts and started to listen seriously.
Since he had a reliable agent like Allens, Ling Xiao did his best to condense the essence of heaven and earth, preparing to obtain more resources before leaving the Kata City to travel the continent.
In just a few days, he gave Allens the essence of the Heaven and Earth that he had refined with all his effort.
When Allens saw the ten bottles that were neatly placed in front of him, he was so excited that he almost couldn't speak. In the end, his hands trembled as he took the bottle and solemnly promised Ling Xiao, "Don't worry, I will make them display the greatest value."
Allens didn't directly sell the bottle of essence in the trading market as Ling Xiao had expected.
He first got someone to spread the news on the market that there was a travelling merchant from afar who came to the Kata City. He carried with him a batch of Natural Essence that was of a much better quality than the one the two genius girls were fighting for.
He was thankful for the battle, letting the people in the city know how precious and rare the heaven and earth essence was. But now, such a precious thing was about to appear again!
The news quickly spread into the city, and soon, almost everyone in the city knew about it.
Within the Levi Family, the goddess that everyone loved, Martha, actually frowned, revealing a face completely different from her usual self. She coldly asked, "Where exactly did these heaven and earth essences come from?"
The servant who had reported the news said fearfully, "Not yet. Not yet."
The impatience on Martha's face deepened as she ordered her servants to find out the identity of the person who released the news as soon as possible. After the servant left, Martha fell into deep thought.
Not long after she started an argument with Deliah, a travelling merchant came by to sell her a bottle of Heaven and Earth Essence. She didn't hesitate to spend money to buy it for that plan.
The sudden emergence of this natural essence might affect the clan's plans.
At this moment, a figure entered the room. Martha greeted respectfully, "Father."
The person who had come was the Patriarch of Levi Family, Martha's father, Jonas. He was a Seventh Level Martial Soldier, and at his age, it was rare for him to cultivate to such a level. But he himself was unwilling to stop at this point. Fortunately, after being stuck in Seventh Level Martial Soldier for six years, he finally had the chance to break through to the Martial Master realm.
Thus, he would not allow anyone to destroy it!
"Martha, no matter who it is, if it will hinder our plan, we will not let them off!"
Martha lowered her head. "I understand, Father."
After everyone who should know about this, Allens spread the news that in order to be fair, he would be auctioning off this extremely precious heaven and earth essence at an auction. The location of the auction happened to be controlled by Deliah's family.
Because of this, even though she had sent out several groups of people, Martha was unable to get the information she wanted. As opponents who disliked each other, Deliah had always kept the principle that if you were unhappy, I would be happy. She would naturally not let Martha be disgusted in all aspects.
Three days later, the auction finally began. Helpless, Martha had no choice but to personally head over to the venue.
At the same time, Ling Xiao also joined the crowd that was watching the auction.
Yes, spectating.
The majority of the auctions in the Kata City were in the open air. The temporary large stone stage was high up in the sky, with the stone stage as the center, it was surrounded by over a dozen rows of stone chairs. Only the most reputable people were qualified to get a seat. As for the others, they could only stand far away from the edge of the arena, barely able to see the situation on the stone platform.
The open environment gave Ling Xiao a chance to participate in the auction at a close distance.
On the stone platform, a female host with a voluptuous figure was starting to get heated up.
Below the stage, Deliah glanced at Martha with a smug expression. The two of them had families that were among the best in Kata City, but because the difference in strength was not too great, it was difficult to determine the difference in strength.
However, this situation would soon change!
A few days ago, when Deliah was patrolling the clan's property, she was stopped by a destitute travelling merchant who said that he wanted to discuss a business deal with her. However, before he could even get near her, he was stopped by a guard. Logically speaking, if such a person came to negotiate business, they would normally leave it to their subordinates to handle it. However, Deliah saw the confidence radiating from that travelling merchant. If he wasn't intentionally putting on an act, it was because there was something in his hand that could move him.
Therefore, she motioned the guards to the side and began to chat with the travelling merchants. Who would have thought that this unassuming travelling merchant would bring her the biggest surprise of her life!
Thinking back to the scene when she saw so many heaven and earth essences, Deliah, who was used to seeing such good things, couldn't help but gasp for breath. If it wasn't for the fact that the other party had insisted on starting the auction, Deliah herself and her family would have used all means at their disposal to buy these heaven and earth essences.
However, as the owner of the auction house, Deliah had to make a concession on the share of the items being auctioned off, thus obtaining three bottles of heaven and earth essence!
Not long after she bought that bottle of Heaven and Earth Essence Essence last time, good news came from the family. Deliah's talented brother had successfully advanced to First Level of Martial Soldier with that bottle of Essence.
Now, with these three bottles of heaven and earth essence, Deliah's father, who had stagnated in the Seventh Level Martial Soldier realm, now had the hope of making a breakthrough.
