Chapter 143: Juxian Pavilion
The capital city, Xuanwumenwai Street, Juxian Pavilion.
This attic is not very high, with only three floors in total, and the height including the spire is only about five or six meters.
However, the decoration inside is extremely luxurious. The three floors are filled with densely packed seats. Each seat not only has an exquisite small table, but also has intricately carved fences on both sides of the seat. The platform in the middle for discussions is made of white marble. It is truly magnificent and splendid.
This place was originally built by the imperial court for the wealthy and powerful families to gather and discuss Taoism. However, most of these earthly immortals are very selfish and not many of them really come here to discuss Taoism. There are quite a few gatherings, especially singing and selling. There are wealthy and powerful families who come here to organize several performances almost every month.
The Zhang family of Qingyang was originally a top-ranked aristocratic family. Moreover, they had announced more than a month ago that this time they would be selling not only magical herbs and medicines, but also materials for refining equipment, a large number of magical pills and magical equipment, and even rare treasures from heaven and earth. Naturally, all the major aristocratic families flocked to it, and even many dukes and nobles from the capital came.
Before the hour of Chen in the morning, the Juxian Pavilion was already full. Not a single vacant seat was left among the 108 seats on the three floors arranged according to the heavenly and earthly positions. Some seats were even occupied by two or three earthly immortals.
The imperial court thought it would be a great achievement to be able to gather 108 earthly immortals at one time, but who knew that so many earthly immortals would come to this singing and selling event organized by Zhang family of Qingyang.
Chen Jiu is now sitting in the seat arranged for the Qingyang Zhang family. Because the Qingyang Zhang family ranks high among the aristocratic families, their seats are also at the front of the third floor, and the view is quite broad.
His partition had the most people in it. Not only was the old fox fairy sitting cross-legged next to him, but Luo Li, Jiaona, Zhang Wanxia, and Xu Yanran were all sitting cross-legged on both sides. Behind him, the wolf demon Wang Er and Da Qing and Xiao Qing were standing side by side. There were a total of nine people!
Fortunately, the space between the seats is large enough, otherwise there would be no room for everyone.
At this time, the singing and selling had not yet begun. All the earthly immortals were busy greeting people they knew and building relationships. The entire Juxian Pavilion was extremely lively and noisy.
However, no one visited Chen Jiu's place.
There was no way. He was born a rebel king. Even if the wealthy and powerful families secretly defected to him, they did not dare to openly establish relations with him in a place . As for the princes and nobles, they did not dare to have any relationship with this big devil, except for the Duke of Wei and the Duke of Ding.
The Duke of Wei and the Duke of Ding were married under the emperor's order and it was not voluntary at all, at least that was the case on the surface.
It's good that no one comes to pay attention to him. Chen Jiu is happy to be idle. If those wealthy families who care about their reputation really come one after another to say hello, he doesn't know how many times he would turn around.
He was there explaining the puzzlement to the curious baby Xu Yanran, but Zhang Wanxia suddenly frowned and said, "Why is this guy here too?"
Who is it?
Chen Jiu followed his gaze and saw that it was the Crown Prince Zhu Yijun!
This fellow actually occupied the Tianshui Zhao seat in the middle of the third floor. He was sitting there alone, looking around with disdain. Duke Wei Xu Wenbi and another top earthly immortal master didn't even have the qualifications to sit down. They could only stand side by side behind him like guards.
Chen Jiu just looked up and this guy happened to glance over at him. Their eyes met and the air seemed to be filled with the smell of gunpowder in an instant.
Grandson, you are not qualified to fight me now. It would be better if you ask your grandfather to come over!
Chen Jiu's eyes gradually turned into contempt, as if he was disdainful.
The Crown Prince Zhu Yijun glared at Zhang Wanxia beside him and couldn't help but snorted coldly.
What are you looking at? If you are not singing and selling, you are not allowed to use your spiritual sense. Believe it or not, I will slap you!
This is the rule of selling things. No one is allowed to use their spiritual sense to scan around. If everyone uses their spiritual sense to scan around, then no one will know who has put the things they are selling into the Immortal Palace.
For this purpose, they specially engraved a magic array to suppress spiritual consciousness in the Juxian Pavilion. Now that the magic array has been opened, the spiritual consciousness of ordinary earth immortals is suppressed within a ten-foot range around the body and cannot be detected at all.
Of course, Chen Jiu is an exception. Even with the suppression of the magic circle, his spiritual sense can still sweep the entire Juxian Pavilion. He just doesn't want to break the rules.
The tense exchange of glances between the two was naturally seen by many people. After all, there were only these two people wearing dragon robes in the entire Juxian Pavilion, and Chen Jiu's reputation had already spread throughout the world.
Seeing how incompatible they were, all the earthly immortals couldn't help but whisper about them. After all, these two people were related to the question of who would own the entire world.
Will King Jiushan continue to rebel, and can Crown Prince Zhu Yijun succeed to the throne smoothly? If the two fight, who has a better chance of winning?
Everyone was discussing in low voices when Patriarch Hongyun had already led Zhang Tianxing and dozens of Zhang family members onto the platform in the middle.
She stood in the middle and bowed, and the entire Juxian Pavilion immediately fell silent.
Then, she said politely: "Everyone, thank you for your kindness. I won't say any more. Tianxing, let's start."
After saying that, she turned around and sat down on the armchair among the young men.
Zhang Tianxing walked forward, bowed, and said with a smile, "Sorry for the long wait, let's not waste any more time, let's have some appetizers first."
After saying this, he raised his hand and waved it, and five exquisite jade bottles appeared on the table in front of him.
He picked up a jade bottle and introduced it skillfully: "This is the Five Elements Immortal Pill. I believe everyone understands that whether it is to break through the first, second, third, fourth, fifth, sixth, seventh, eighth, ninth level of the enlightenment, or to break through to the realm of the Immortal Mansion, this immortal pill is of great use.
The employer is an alchemist, so he only wants magical herbs and elixirs. If anyone has the magical herbs and elixirs that can be used to refine Zhenyuan Pills, Peiyuan Pills, and Haoyuan Pills, any ten of them can be exchanged for one. If it comes to other magical herbs and elixirs, the minimum price is ten, and the highest bidder wins.
This first wave of five-element elixirs comes in five large bottles, with sixty pills each, for a total of three hundred pills. First, exchange them for the immortal herbs and spiritual medicines for refining Zhenyuan Pill, Peiyuan Pill, and Haoyuan Pill. Please wait for the other immortal herbs and spiritual medicines. Okay, let's start now."
As soon as he finished speaking, many earth immortals immediately rushed to say, "I have immortal herbs and elixirs for refining Zhenyuan Pills, Peiyuan Pills, and Haoyuan Pills. Give me two fire immortal pills."
"I have some magical herbs and herbs for refining Zhenyuan Pill, Peiyuan Pill and Haoyuan Pill. Give me three wood-type magical pills."
"I have some magical herbs and herbs for refining Zhenyuan Pill, Peiyuan Pill, and Haoyuan Pill. Give me a water-based magical pill."
The scene was a bit chaotic and the noise was a bit noisy, but Zhang Tianxing still nodded slightly and then looked at Ancestor Hongyun behind him.
Patriarch Hongyun raised his hand calmly, and dozens of Zhang disciples immediately raised the trays in their hands.
Then, she waved her hand again, and immediately, a number of jade bottles appeared on the trays in the hands of these disciples. These jade bottles were not big, and they were obviously filled with an elixir.
These disciples filed down carrying trays, and soon came to the earthly immortals who raised their hands, handing over magical herbs and elixirs in one hand and elixirs in the other. Everyone understood the rules, and the earthly immortals who received the elixirs couldn't help but open the corks and take a look.
All of a sudden, the entire Juxian Pavilion was filled with the aroma of medicine, which made people feel relaxed and happy just by smelling it.
The medicinal fragrance is so good, these elixirs are all top quality!
When the earthly immortals who had not yet exchanged for the elixir smelled the strong medicinal fragrance, they cried out in anxiety, as if they were afraid that it would be gone once it reached him .
Seeing this, Chen Jiu still smiled as usual on the surface, but he was very happy in his heart. These earthly immortals were really talented. He didn't know where they got so many magical herbs and medicines, and they all went to him.
This handful of materials contains the materials for three hundred bottles of Zhenyuan Pills, Peiyuan Pills and Haoyuan Pills. This is probably enough for him to practice Qigong to the peak of Golden Core!
The Zhang family's disciples handed in magical herbs and elixirs in rounds, and sent down magical pills in rounds. Soon, all three hundred magical pills were exchanged out.
Some earthly immortals were still calling out there. It seemed that the magical herbs and elixirs needed to refine the Zhenyuan Pill, Peiyuan Pill and Haoyuan Pill had not been exchanged yet.
Zhang Tianxing raised his hand and smiled, "Don't worry, we still have 300 pills here. If you have materials for refining Zhenyuan Pill, Peiyuan Pill and Haoyuan Pill, you will definitely be able to exchange them. As for other immortal herbs and elixirs, don't worry. We will have a meeting every month in the future, and everyone will definitely be able to exchange for the immortal pills they want.
It’s still the same old rule. First, exchange the immortal herbs and spiritual medicines for refining Zhenyuan Pill, Peiyuan Pill and Haoyuan Pill. Please wait for the other immortal herbs and spiritual medicines. Okay, let’s start now.”
There were not many earthly immortals calling for help this time, and soon, all the immortal herbs and elixirs needed to refine Zhenyuan Pills, Peiyuan Pills, and Haoyuan Pills were exchanged, probably only dozens of them.
Zhang Tianxing didn't say anything more. He raised his hand and smiled, "Okay, now let's move on to other magical herbs. Any magical herbs will do. Ten plants will be enough. Let's start now."
"I'll give you eleven plants and one each, and give me five earth-type elixirs."
"I'll give you fifteen plants for each one, and give me eight water-based elixirs."
"I'll give you 20 plants for each, and give me 12 wood-type elixirs."
The scene became even more chaotic now. Almost all the immortals on earth were raising their hands and shouting frantically. If this continued, there would be no end to it.
Zhang Tianxing looked at the situation and raised his hand and smiled, "Everyone, listen to me. If you offer more than 20 magical herbs, you will lose a lot. Our alchemist said that we should not be too greedy. If anyone is willing to offer 20 magical herbs, we will take it. If it is higher, we will not take it. Please keep it for next time.
Okay, those who are willing to offer twenty magical herbs, please start."
"I said I'll give twenty plants for one, give me twelve wood-type elixirs."
Holy shit, you Zhao family just rely on your own immortal palace to grow magical herbs and medicines, right?
"I'll give you twenty plants for one, and give me three earth-type elixirs."
"I'll give you twenty plants for each one, and give me six water-based elixirs."
I've really made a fortune now. The materials I get from one elixir are enough to make almost 24 elixirs. If this continues like a snowball, I'm afraid all the magical herbs and medicines in the world will be in my pocket.
This ancient divine cauldron is truly a treasure!
Chen Jiu couldn't help but send a voice message through his spiritual consciousness: "Old Ding, do you think there is a mother Ding in this world? Otherwise, I will find one for you?"
The Great Desolate Divine Cauldron in his Dantian said without hesitation: "Get lost!"
