Cultivation of immortality begins with an eighty-year-old eunuch.

Chapter 125 Old Li: You smell so strongly of urine! How could I not recognize you!

Luoyang City remained bustling.

The streets were bustling with people, and the shouts of vendors rose and fell.

Chen Fan weaved through the crowd with a smile on his face.

This time, not in a rush, he would stop from time to time along the way to take in the local atmosphere.

In particular, when passing by the famous Zuichun Garden in Luoyang, Chen Fan lingered in front of the gate for a while.

He was greeted several times by those beautifully dressed and attractive women, but he remained unmoved.

Finally, feeling utterly bored, he headed towards the courtyard.

The same old man was still standing in front of the door.

Chen Fan gave the password and then went into the cabin.

With a flash of light, he found himself back in Luoyang's market town.

Looking around, the market seemed to be a bit bigger than before, and there were more people.

At a glance, Chen Fan saw more than a dozen Qi Refining Realm experts.

He even sensed a dangerous aura emanating from some of them.

Not daring to look any longer, Chen Fan sighed inwardly, then put on his mask, donned his black robe, and headed towards Baicaotang.

Besides selling sweet potatoes, he also planned to take some demon beast cores back with him.

After all, Xiao Hua and Hei Feng have been eating radishes for almost a year now.

They've started emanating demonic energy; they'll become spirits by then!

Chen Fan, as their owner, still knew to lend them a hand.

As he pondered, he gradually arrived in front of the Hundred Herbs Hall.

In the hall.

Old Li, who recently returned to the main building to report for duty, was in a particularly good mood.

Having been commended by the eighteen elders, he now eagerly awaits the arrival of that benefactor every day.

But Old Li waited and waited, and this person didn't come for almost seven or eight days.

If this continues, he reckons there won't be enough radishes and sweet potatoes left in the main hall.

Old Li is afraid he won't hear praise from the Eighteenth Elder, but rather criticism!

Just as he was filled with worry, a young figure suddenly walked in from outside the door.

Although the man was wearing a mask and a black robe, Old Li recognized him at a glance after smelling the scent!

"Brother Wei! You've arrived! I've missed you so much!"

Chen Fan had just entered the room.

Then they saw Old Li running over, laughing heartily.

This startled him, and he quickly dodged the bear hug, saying:

"Even dressed like this, you still recognize me?"

"Hahaha!" Old Li said with a smile on his face.

"To be honest... Brother Wei... I knew it was you as soon as I smelled your scent..."

Chen Fan's face flushed red instantly.

If anyone else had said that, he probably would have turned around and left.

But the person in front of him was Old Li, so he thought about it and decided against it!

"Does it smell strong?" Chen Fan swallowed and asked embarrassedly.

"It's not very big," Old Li said, scratching his head.

"Brother Wei, you don't know this, but the people in our pharmacy have an innately keen sense of smell, far surpassing that of ordinary people... so... haha..."

It turned out to be the case.

Chen Fan nodded.

You know, he even put on some floral perfume when he came out.

This was all to cover up the smell of urine on his body, so that others wouldn't immediately realize he was a eunuch.

But when Chen Fan arrived at Lao Li's place, he realized that everything he had done was in vain.

Feeling somewhat embarrassed, he stopped dwelling on the issue and immediately got straight to the point:

"I won't argue with you about that. I'm here to sell some sweet potatoes."

"Sure, no problem!" Old Li was overjoyed when he heard the goods had arrived.

"Brother Wei, we at Baicaotang will take as many as you have!"

"Count them, there are 10,000 sweet potatoes in here..." Chen Fan didn't hesitate and took out a storage bag.

Apart from the sweet potatoes he kept for seeds, all the remaining sweet potatoes are here.

"No need to order, I trust Brother Wei!" Old Li said with a smile as he took the storage bag.

"That's equivalent to forty high-grade spirit stones. I'll go get them for you right away..."

"Wait a minute..." Chen Fan nodded and said:

"I also need some demon beast cores. Give me thirty!"

"A demonic beast's inner core?" Old Li's eyes lit up as he asked.

"Brother Wei, your information network is quite impressive! This Monster Record just appeared at auction, and you already got inside information?"

Records of Monsters?

Chen Fan was taken aback.

Not knowing what it was, he asked in confusion:

"What Monster Record? I don't know anything about it..."

"You didn't know?" Old Li was also taken aback, and then told him about the Monster Record.

Chen Fan was instantly tempted upon hearing this.

According to Lao Li, the Monster Record is a technique specifically used to cultivate spirit beasts.

It contains detailed records of various types of spirit beasts and demon beasts, as well as methods for raising and taming them.

For Chen Fan, who loves raising horses and cats, this thing is undoubtedly a treasure!

"I thought Brother Wei bought the demon beast cores for the Demon Beast Record, but it seems I was overthinking it!" Old Li said with a smile.

"I also have some demon beast inner cores here. As our big customer, I'll give you these thirty inner cores for free!"

After saying this, Old Li turned and went into the house.

When he came out, he was holding a storage bag in his hand.

"How could I accept this..." Chen Fan took the storage bag and looked inside. It contained forty high-grade spirit stones and thirty demon beast inner cores.

Slightly embarrassed, he smiled and said:

"I have something to do... I'll be going now!"

"Take care..." Old Li waved goodbye as he saw the person to the door.

"I'll be waiting for you to come again next time!"

After watching the old eunuch walk away, Old Li reluctantly returned to his room.

He took the spirit insect out of his sleeve, looked at it, and a hint of surprise appeared in his eyes.

The spirit insect was red all over, which proved that the person whose cultivation was being tested was at least at the fifth level of the Qi Refining Realm!

You should know that Old Li tested this old eunuch just two months ago, and at that time the other party's cultivation was only at the early stage of Qi Refining Realm.

Unexpectedly, only two months have passed, and the other party's cultivation has already reached the mid-stage of Qi Refining Realm!

Feeling incredulous, Old Li shook his head slightly, sensing that this old eunuch was no ordinary person.

Moreover, upon observation, he clearly noticed that the man looked much younger and had a much better demeanor.

Old Li, who was increasingly unable to understand, suddenly began to agree with the Eighteenth Elder's guess!

……

After leaving Baicaotang.

Chen Fan went to the market and bought a bunch of materials for setting up formations and materials for crafting puppets.

After buying all these items, he finally found the auction house by following the market street.

It was a large, round building with four entrances on the east, west, south, and north sides.

Four Qi Refining Realm cultivators stood guard outside each door, making it seem extremely secure!

Unlike the auctions in Chang'an's market district, the auctions in Luoyang's market district are held right on the street, so there's no need to go to another place via a teleportation array.

Moreover, Chen Fan only needed to scan the room with his divine sense to discover that there were at least three cultivators at the Great Perfection of the Qi Refining Realm in charge of the auction.

Even in the deepest part, he sensed an even stronger aura!

Foundation Establishment stage cultivator!

With a sigh, Chen Fan shook his head slightly and walked into the auction house with his hands behind his back.

The moment he stepped through the gate, he was immediately captivated by the scene before him…
