It didn't matter much that he couldn't get the Qiankun Emperor Pill; Wei Xiaofeng directly set his sights on mental power cultivation techniques.
With such a cultivation method, Chi Xia Island would have the ability to contend with various forces.
After all, Fei Yun Pavilion became so powerful and a peak force because it cultivated mental power techniques.
Wei Xiaofeng's idea was good, but as soon as he spoke, everyone again expressed that they also wanted to trade for mental power cultivation techniques.
If they had the chance for mental power cultivation techniques, they certainly wouldn't let it pass.
Alas!
Ye Cangtian sighed, his gaze flickered towards Wei Xiaofeng, and he muttered to himself.
Was this Wei Xiaofeng out of his mind?
The value of the treasure he sought already far exceeded the treasures auctioned before, and it was definitely something everyone craved.
How could such a treasure be traded publicly?
If he traded it to Wei Xiaofeng, he would have to trade it to other forces, and wouldn't the ruins descend into chaos?
Thinking to himself, Ye Cangtian looked at Wei Xiaofeng and said indifferently, "I do have mental power cultivation techniques, but I don't intend to trade them. If I did, it would only harm you!"
Huh?
Upon hearing this, everyone was stunned. They said that having more skills doesn't hurt. How could cultivating an additional cultivation technique be harmful?
Could it be that cultivating mental power techniques required paying a price?
Wei Xiaofeng, on stage, was also confused and asked, "Mr. Ye, I don't quite understand what you're saying. Please clarify."
Hearing this, Ye Cangtian said helplessly, "Mental power cultivation techniques are monopolized by Fei Yun Pavilion. If only one person cultivates it, it might not be a problem!
But if it were to be taught to all disciples, Fei Yun Pavilion would definitely not stand idly by. You must have heard of the Soul Refining Sect, right? They are an example..."
Soul Refining Sect?
Hearing about the Soul Refining Sect, many people were confused, and many had never heard of it.
However, through the discussions around them, they also learned about the Soul Refining Sect being wiped out by Fei Yun Pavilion.
Because of this, many forces retreated. Offending Fei Yun Pavilion for a cultivation technique and ultimately being annihilated was clearly not worth it.
As for the forces that did not retreat, there was a struggle on their faces.
Seeing this, Ye Cangtian said indifferently, "Give up, everyone. Fei Yun Pavilion didn't even let go of a bell bracelet related to mental power attacks. You can imagine what the outcome would be if you obtained the cultivation techniques."
This...
Hearing this, the few forces that were still holding on immediately retreated.
After a small interlude, there were far fewer people around Ye Cangtian.
Without the Qiankun Emperor Pill and being unable to trade for mental power cultivation techniques, in the eyes of many, the Hidden Group had nothing else worth their trade.
On the other side, Ye Zhengxuan came to Ye Cangtian's side and directly pulled him aside.
Looking at Ye Zhengxuan's actions, Ye Cangtian said irritably, "Is there anything that can't be said openly? Why do you have to act like a thief!"
Ye Zhengxuan glanced at Ye Cangtian and snorted, "Brother, do you even know how many treasures you have? If others find out, I guarantee you'll be swarmed like flies!"
Uh...
Hearing this explanation, Ye Cangtian really didn't know how to refute it.
After a pause, Ye Cangtian snorted, "Alright, speak. What do you want?"
Heh heh.
Ye Zhengxuan chuckled, rubbing his fingers, looking a bit embarrassed, but still gritted his teeth and said, "Brother, I heard you gave Yi Feipeng some super pill? One that can enhance cultivation and mental power..."
"Heavenly Secret Pill?"
Ye Cangtian looked at Ye Zhengxuan doubtfully. The other party's description was very similar to the Heavenly Secret Pill, and in the Mustard Seed Space, he had indeed saved Yi Feipeng's life with the Heavenly Secret Pill.
"Perhaps, I'm not sure of the exact name."
Ye Zhengxuan smiled foolishly and then said, "Brother, we are brothers. Can you get me ten or eight of these pills? Don't worry, we'll settle accounts like true brothers. I won't let you suffer a loss..."
Bang!
Before Ye Zhengxuan could finish, Ye Cangtian kicked him away.
"Ten or eight? Do you think they're like jellybeans!"
"Do you know that's a heaven-defying-level pill? Even the entire Hidden Group only has two or three left right now!"
Ye Cangtian looked at Ye Zhengxuan in exasperation. He could understand the other party's desire to become stronger, but he also needed to be a bit closer to reality!
Ye Zhengxuan rubbed his sore backside and said with a pained expression, "Ten or eight is just a metaphor. I'd be satisfied with just one."
"None, not a single one!"
Ye Cangtian glared fiercely at Ye Zhengxuan and continued, "I won't hide it from you. These pills are reserved for the Death Squad. They don't have enough, so how can I give them to you?"
This...
Hearing this, a look of disappointment appeared on Ye Zhengxuan's face.
He also knew that the Death Squad could definitely be considered his adoptive siblings, so the idea of Ye Cangtian trading the Heavenly Secret Pill to him was impossible.
On the other side, Ye Cangtian hesitated for a moment and then threw a Qiankun bag over.
Ye Zhengxuan was slightly stunned, and then his face lit up with excitement. He thought Ye Cangtian had changed his mind.
But when he checked the contents of the Qiankun bag, he was instantly frozen in place.
The Qiankun bag contained the various treasures he had pieced together to trade for the Vitality Pill.
"This is..." Ye Zhengxuan looked at Ye Cangtian doubtfully.
Hmph!
Ye Cangtian snorted and said irritably, "It's just one Vitality Pill. With our friendship, was it necessary for you to auction it? You could have just asked me directly. What a spendthrift!"
Uh...
Hearing this, Ye Zhengxuan scratched his head and said awkwardly, "After all, the Vitality Pill didn't come for free. I couldn't let you suffer a loss..."
"Nonsense!"
"A Vitality Pill is nothing compared to a brother! It's not even worth a fart!"
Ye Cangtian glared at him and then asked, "By the way, why did you bid for the Vitality Pill?"
Hearing Ye Cangtian's words, a warmth surged through Ye Zhengxuan's heart, and the slight resentment from before vanished.
He was silent for a moment, then slowly said, "Brother, I won't hide it from you anymore. My father is getting old, and his lifespan is probably approaching its end. So, this pill is prepared for him in advance."
Ye Zhengxuan stated that he had a premonition that Ye Yaoyang's physical condition was probably not optimistic.
The reason was that Ye Yaoyang had gradually transferred the authority of the Fierce Fire Academy to him, which gave him a bad feeling.
"Are you perhaps overthinking it?" Ye Cangtian asked doubtfully.
"I don't know."
Ye Zhengxuan shook his head and sighed, "I hope I'm overthinking it, but it's good to have a Vitality Pill prepared just in case."
Mm.
Ye Cangtian nodded in understanding and then said, "If your father truly has any problems, feel free to come to me. Bao'er's medical skills are quite good!"
"Thank you."
Ye Zhengxuan cupped his fists in thanks and then changed the subject, saying, "Brother, the conflict between the Hidden Group and Fei Yun Pavilion is getting deeper. A battle is probably inevitable. Do you have any specific combat plans?"
"Not yet. If I do, I'll notify you in advance."
Ye Cangtian replied indifferently, then scanned the entire venue. The simple trading and benefit session was nearing its end.
He glanced at Ye Zhengxuan and said, "We'll talk later. I have something important to do!"
Saying this, Ye Cangtian didn't wait for a response and flashed onto the stage.
Seeing Ye Cangtian appear on stage, everyone was also stunned. Could it be that the Hidden Group wanted to trade for some treasure?
Cough cough.
Feeling the confused gazes of everyone, Ye Cangtian coughed lightly and said, "Quiet down for a moment. I have something to say!"
As his voice fell, the scene instantly fell silent.
Seeing this, Ye Cangtian slowly began to speak, "I know that there are still many people who covet the Four Seals held by the Hidden Group!
At the same time, I also know that the Hidden Group's obstruction alone is not enough to make you give up the idea of going to the Heavenly Realm..."
Wow!
As Ye Cangtian's words fell, the entire venue erupted in an uproar.
Ye Cangtian was right; they still harbored the thought of seizing the Four Seals.
After all, longevity and the pinnacle of martial arts held too much attraction for everyone.
However, with the rise of the Hidden Group, even peak forces like Fei Yun Pavilion failed to seize them.
Therefore, they, as first-rate forces, would likely have no chance even if they made a move.
That was why they had buried this thought deep in their hearts.
But as Ye Cangtian spoke, their desires reignited.
