Chapter 2226: Spirit Gate, Ten Thousand Trees Manual

The streets of Snow Goose Market were bustling with crowds and traffic, creating a very lively atmosphere. Its unique location and abundant cultivation resources meant that auctions were held regularly. These events often featured rare specialties from other races, attracting a large number of cultivators.

Qingyang Palace was one such auction venue, and on this particular day, it was hosting an auction. The main hall was spacious and brightly lit. In the center, a large blue clam shell, over a hundred zhang in size, served as the auction stage. A graceful young woman in a golden dress stood within it.

Over a thousand cultivators had gathered in the main hall, most of whom were at the Spirit Transformation stage. This auction was primarily aimed at Spirit Transformation cultivators, with rumors of six-tier materials being offered.

Near the front rows, Wang Tianli's gaze was fixed on the young woman in the golden dress, with Wang Xiangrong standing beside him. Wang Tianli, like Sun Yuejiao's group, had also received orders to inquire through various channels about six-tier pills capable of healing torn meridians. Upon hearing that six-tier materials were to be auctioned, he attended the event with Wang Xiangrong.

After successfully auctioning off three flying swords, the young woman in the golden dress smiled and asked, "I wonder if any fellow cultivators have heard of the Myriad Spirit Sect?"

"Of course, I have!" replied a cultivator. "That sect specialized in spiritual plant cultivation, producing many high-level spiritual plant masters and several Void Refinement cultivators. Unfortunately, it was destroyed by a seventh-tier demonic beast."

"Wasn't that sect destroyed by a massive beast tide thirty thousand years ago?" another asked. "Are we about to auction off treasures from the Myriad Spirit Sect?"

"I heard that the sect's sea-suppressing treasure had a beneficial effect on cultivating spiritual herbs," someone else chimed in. "A seventh-tier demonic beast led over a dozen sixth-tier demonic beasts to attack the sect specifically for that treasure."

The cultivators discussed animatedly. Over thirty thousand years ago, a rogue cultivator named True Monarch Myriad Spirit established the sect in this sea region. During its peak, the Myriad Spirit Sect boasted fifty thousand disciples, including seven Void Refinement cultivators. The Myriad Spirit Sect excelled in spiritual plant cultivation, largely due to its sect-suppressing treasure, the Myriad Spirit Vase. This artifact greatly aided in cultivating spiritual grasses and herbs, and was rumored to have been crafted by Celestial Venerable Xuanling. While the Myriad Spirit Sect flourished because of this treasure, it also drew the covetous attention of a seventh-tier demonic beast, ultimately leading to its destruction by that beast and over a dozen sixth-tier demonic beasts.

As Wang Tianli was responsible for intelligence gathering, he was naturally familiar with the Myriad Spirit Sect.

The young woman in the golden dress flipped her right hand, revealing a shimmering green jade slip.

"Is it a cultivation technique or a spiritual plant cultivation method?" a cultivator questioned. "What's so rare about it that it's being presented as a grand finale item?"

A cultivator raised a question. The young woman in the golden dress explained, "This is the Myriad Wood Scripture, one of the Myriad Spirit Sect's five great sect-suppressing cultivation techniques. It can be cultivated up to the Integration stage and includes multiple powerful divine abilities, making it particularly suitable for spiritual plant masters. This item is for exchange only, not for sale. We are seeking a Profound Spiritual Treasure or other powerful killing artifacts."

"The Myriad Wood Scripture!"

Wang Xiangrong's face lit up with interest. The Wang family was in need of cultivation techniques, and a wood-attributed technique that could be cultivated to the Integration stage was invaluable, its worth immeasurable in spirit stones. He transmitted a message to the young woman in the golden dress: "Madam Jin, how about I exchange a fifth-tier puppet beast for this cultivation technique?" The price of a fifth-tier puppet beast far exceeded that of even a low-grade Profound Spiritual Treasure, making it a better offer than a Profound Spiritual Treasure itself, which might not have been enough to acquire the technique. The Wang family was in urgent need of skilled professionals, and spiritual plant masters were one such category.

The young woman in the golden dress communicated with several Spirit Transformation cultivators via sound transmission, and then relayed messages to the item's owner. Finally, she transmitted a message to Wang Xiangrong: "Fellow cultivator, the owner invites you to a private room for a detailed discussion."

Wang Xiangrong rose and followed a blue-robed attendant, passing through a corridor until they reached the open doorway of a stone room. Inside, a red-robed man wearing a ghost-face mask had been waiting. Judging by his spiritual power fluctuations, he was clearly a Spirit Transformation cultivator. Wang Xiangrong entered, and the door closed behind him.

A while later, the door opened, and Wang Xiangrong emerged, a faint smile gracing his lips. The divine abilities included with the Myriad Wood Scripture were indeed excellent, making it very convenient for cultivating and transplanting spiritual herbs.

When he returned to the main hall, the young woman in the golden dress was holding a blue porcelain bottle. She announced, "Sold for ten million! This bottle of Azure Ganoderma Golden Dew Pills goes to Fellow Cultivator Liu." A somewhat hunched old man in a green robe stepped forward and paid the spirit stones. The bamboo pattern on his clothes clearly marked him as a descendant of the Liu family from Thousand Bamboo Isle.

Wang Xiangrong asked Wang Tianli, confirming that no items capable of healing torn meridians had appeared.

The young woman in the golden dress then announced, "Alright, the auction concludes here. Next time, we will prepare even more and better goods for everyone." At her words, the cultivators began to disperse.

Wang Xiangrong did not linger in the market. After giving Wang Tianli a few instructions, he left the market and headed back to Qinglian Island, intending to submit the cultivation technique as soon as possible.
