Ye Jingcheng wrapped the Pill Furnace with specially made Spirit-Blocking Cloth and affixed a Spirit Talisman before placing the Celestial Bell Furnace into the Storage Bag.

Then he looked at the elder's other treasures, and after finding no desired Spirit Medicine or Magical Artifacts, he left.

The elder showed no intention of greeting him, still sitting there with his eyes closed, resting.

The cultivators setting up stalls here all had distinct characteristics, with none dedicated solely to business.

Instead, it resembled a place for people to dispose of stolen goods.

Moreover, each stall was roughly a zhang apart.

Not much, not little, as if getting any closer might provoke a fight.

At this time, Ye Jingli transmitted to the two of them, and they returned to the exit to meet Ye Jingli.

After a brief eye contact, Ye Jingcheng and Ye Xingyi stayed together, while Ye Jingli acted alone, also concerned about someone deducing their identities through their numbers.

At the same time, Ye Jingcheng also transmitted, asking Ye Jingli to keep an eye out for the Fruit of Harmony for him.

As new cultivators continued to arrive and set up stalls, there were also stalls being packed away as the cultivators wandered around.

Throughout the entire market, there were few idle conversations, and all the female cultivators being sold were used as Furnace Cauldrons.

Most of these female cultivators had Qi Cultivation levels, cultivating the Primordial Yin Technique to assist other cultivators in breaking through.

Although Ye Jingcheng was somewhat disdainful internally, he refrained from interfering.

Regarding these Living Corpses, Ye Jingcheng showed even less interest.

However, he was quite interested in some Exotic Beasts' Essence Blood.

After all, although his Jade Qilin Flood Dragon was settled, the other three Spirit Beasts were not.

After a round of browsing, Ye Jingcheng found some Spirit Medicines for Purple Spirit Concentration Liquid and Purple Mansion Jade Liquid.

He already had these Spirit Medicines, but stocking up a bit more was always good.

After doing all this, Ye Jingcheng also found a spot to sell some spoils of war that he usually didn't need, including stolen goods like treasures from the Kong Family and the Taiyi Sect Illusion Peak Xu Sect Cultivator's treasures.

He exchanged them for over a thousand Spirit Stones.

Soon, it was midnight, and a cool autumn breeze blew through the ancient city in the mountains, with shimmering Spiritual Light appearing in the distance.

Ye Jingcheng's Token lit up as well, indicating that the night market was about to begin, which was the true dark market and also the real profit point for the Cyan Spirit Trading Association.

Ye Jingcheng and Ye Xingyi exchanged glances and headed toward the place where the Spiritual Light emerged, quickly arriving at a large compound with three entrances.

At the entrance were two large lions and two Spirit-Blocking Robe Cultivators with cultivation levels too profound to gauge.

They inspected everyone's tokens in turn, and since Ye Jingcheng and the others' tokens were provided by the Wan Family, there were naturally no issues.

Once inside, the first courtyard featured portraits from the Taiyi Sect, requiring everyone to curse the Taiyi Sect once.

Ye Jingcheng saw this and was somewhat dumbfounded, but he had to admire the ingenuity of the market organizers.

With this curse, no one dared to report to the Taiyi Sect.

And since it's just a curse without targeting the True Master, the pressure was relatively low, so unless someone was a die-hard Taiyi Sect loyalist, they wouldn't mind.

Ye Jingcheng even suspected that there might be people from the Taiyi Sect who would safely curse once and then sit down.

Ye Jingcheng and Ye Jingli changed their voices and casually cursed once before entering the second courtyard.

This courtyard was filled with seats, and many cultivators were already seated.

The common feature among them was that they all wore Spirit-Blocking Robes.

As for their postures, they varied greatly.

Seated at the head were two cultivators in Cyan Spirit Robes, indicating their affiliation with the Cyan Spirit Trading Association, but they also wore Spirit-Blocking Veils.

Ye Jingcheng and Ye Jingli each found a seat.

In the end, about a hundred cultivators came, which, although not many, without the Taiyi Sect's Foundation Establishment cultivators, indicated a substantial Foundation Establishment presence here.

"Alright, most of the people are here. I am one of the Chief Stewards of the Cyan Spirit Trading Association, you can call me Chief Steward Qing. Many of you are aware of the rules in our Cyan Spirit Trading Association: transactions are made on the spot, examine the goods on the spot, once the goods and money exchange hands, there are no returns!"

"Of course, if any goods involve your friends or relatives, we hope for composure, as the association doesn't want any incidents. After all, this is business, and we all come for profit!" Chief Steward Qing's words were light but carried a significant threat.

Even Ye Jingcheng felt a chill overrun him.

He even sensed that the people in front might be Purple Mansion Cultivators.

Otherwise, it wouldn't be possible for them to bring him such a terrifying impression.

"We will start with the trading association selling twenty items, after which everyone can come forward to auction their items, paying a five percent Spirit Stone fee equivalent to the auction item value. Of course, bartering is also welcomed, still at a five percent fee!"

As the words concluded, Chief Steward Qing clapped, and the first pair to come up was a pair of female cultivators.

These two female cultivators were strikingly beautiful, obviously twins, dressed in light palace gauze that was almost like nothing, with fiery figures faintly visible.

Moreover, tears glistened in the corners of their eyes, making them appear so pitiful that one might want to embrace them closely and cherish them dearly.

Their cultivation was sealed, essentially making them lambs without the strength to truss a chicken.

"Top-grade Furnace Cauldrons, two, Qi Cultivation Ninth Layer, Primordial Yin intact, can assist cultivators below Late Stage of Foundation Establishment in breaking through bottlenecks, starting bid of thirty thousand Spirit Stones!" Chief Steward Qing announced.

Below, many cultivators began laughing sinisterly and started bidding one after another.
