Chapter Sixty-Four: Refining a Spirit Bottle

re with their hands behind their backs, not even moving a finger, so how did they cheat"I told you I was lucky today, nothing could stop it."Ye Bufan didn't seem to notice the unsightly expressions on...Speaking of the Worldly Peach Garden Community, one has to admire Master Xuanji.

Qin ChuChu, upon reaching this point, wore an expression of unconcealed reverence on her face, clearly holding the 玄極 Master in high regard.

Ye Bufan asked, "What does this apartment auction have to do with Master Xuanji"

"Listen to me slowly," Qin ChuChu said, "Master Xuanyi's magical skills are profound and he is a rare hermit of the world."

The owner of the Worldly Paradise Residential Area is named Guan Dongping. When he bid for this land, Master Xuanji had said that the place was too heavy with negative energy and was an inauspicious location, not suitable for real estate development.

But Guan Dongping at the time was very stubborn, he didn't listen to Master Xuanji's advice, and still insisted on taking that piece of land.

The result is a string of tragedies that have occurred recently, leaving no one willing to work on the construction site. Property sales have plummeted, with not even a single house sold. The financial chain has completely broken.

Therefore, he auctioned off the property at a low price out of sheer necessity. Although the price of one hundred million yuan is far below the cost, it's still uncertain whether it will sell.

After all, a hundred million is not a small sum. No one would casually use it to buy that ominous place. Before we came, our Qin Group had researched the Peach Blossom Source Community, and no one agreed to bid on it as a result.

It's a pity for Guan Dongping, he invested tens of millions in it. If it can't be auctioned off, he will lose everything. But this is not someone else's fault, who told him not to listen to Master Xuanji's advice at the beginning.

If someone else heard this, they would surely be filled with immense admiration for Master Xuanji.

But Ye Bufan is not an ordinary person. He has been to the Shiwai Taoyuan Community before and knows that the evil energy there was not always present. On the contrary, it was once a place of abundant spiritual energy.

The recent string of tragedies is entirely due to foul play. They were orchestrated by someone who used a Xuan Yin Gathering Evil Array to manifest these calamities.

If Master Xuanji thought the Yin energy was too heavy before construction, there's something fishy going on. He might have tampered with things for a specific purpose.

Thinking about this, he asked: "Who is Master Xuánjī Is he very powerful"

Qin Chuchu said: "Grandmaster Xuanyi is a Taoist priest with extraordinary magical powers. He can see 500 years into the past and 500 years into the future. His skills in geomancy and divination are unmatched, he is practically a living god."

Ten years ago, Master Xuanji met the Luo family. At that time, the Luo family was penniless, but with Master Xuanji's help, they became a major financial group in Jiangnan City in just ten years.

...has investments in real estate and jade, among other industries, and boasts a larger overall asset portfolio than the Qin Group. ...

This time, the casino we're going to is owned by the Luo family. Tomorrow's gem exhibition is also hosted by the Luo family.

It was precisely because of the Luo family's rise that everyone came to believe in Master Xuanji, who was undoubtedly a highly skilled expert. Furthermore, he had also given pointers to other families on several occasions, and they were always effective.

Ye Bufan nodded, although Qin Chuchu's words were amazing, he always felt that this Xuanji master was a little off.

Qin ChuChu continued, "The person who's been bothering me is named Luo Wentuo. Because of the relationship between his family and Master Xuanyijing, I couldn't refuse him too obviously, so this time I can only bring you along. Hopefully, he'll know when to back down."

Ye Bufan was increasingly curious about Master Xuanji. He asked, "Do you think Master Xuanji will appear at this auction"

"That's hard to say. In the past, Master Xuanji was a recluse who rarely participated in worldly affairs. But with his items up for auction this time, he might just show up."

Ye Bufan asked, "Is Grandmaster Xuanji hard to see"

Qin Chuchu said, “Of course, anyone who wants Master Xuanyji to give them pointers would have to pay at least one million. And even if you have money, it's not guaranteed. It also depends on whether you have the fate with the master.”

Ye Bufan didn't speak any further, continuing to flip through the poster in his hands. Soon he reached the last page.

Originally, I wanted to just toss the poster aside, but suddenly my expression froze. I stared intently at the last page, unable to move.

The poster depicted a bottle, about ten centimeters in size, that resembled porcelain vases but was not made of porcelain. It bore an incredibly strange pattern etched onto its surface.

"A spirit bottle! This is a spirit bottle!"

Yè Búfán's heart was churning with astonishment. The ancient medical sect’s teachings recorded the Ten Supreme Artifacts of the Immortal Cultivation Sects, and among them was the Refining Demon Bottle.

A *refining bottle* is unlike ordinary magic artifacts. Not only can it contain all manner of sinister things, but after refining them, they can be transformed into pills. That's the true magic of a *refining bottle*.

If this is a magic bottle, you've really struck gold. Banishing the sinister Qi in the Worldly Paradise community would be effortless.

But all I see is a picture, and I don't know if the actual object is a fake.

He took another look at the booklet's description, apparently even the auction house didn't know what it was and hadn't provided a detailed introduction. There was only a starting price of 100,000 yuan.

Seeing that he wasn't speaking, Qin Chuchu turned her head and said, "It's just a broken vase. What's so good about it"

"Where do all the items in this auction come from"

"That's not necessarily so. The items at such small auctions are all brought out by prominent families, for example, this vase was brought out by our Qin family."

"What, yours"

Ye Bufan almost jumped out of the passenger seat. Having such a powerful artifact at home and taking it to auction, wasn't this throwing money away

Qin ChuChu was startled by his reaction and quickly steadied the steering wheel: "Are you crazy What's there to be surprised about"

Ye Bufan steadied his mind and asked, "Where did this thing come from"

Qin Chuchu said: "I don't know where it came from. My father said it was passed down from my great-great-grandfather's generation and has been kept in our family treasure room all along."

However, after so many years of transmission, no one knows what it is. I asked Yang Ziheng, a master, to take a look at it, but even the master couldn't figure out its origin.

My dad thinks it's useless to keep such a weird thing, so he's putting it up for auction this time.

"Your father sure is a spendthrift," Ye Bufan said, "Can this be taken back How about you sell it to me"

“You should have told me sooner! I could have given you something better than this piece of junk, but now it's already been sent to the auction and we even made posters. Recalling it would be bad for Qin family's reputation, and my father wouldn't agree to it either.”

"How was I supposed to know your family had one" Ye Bufan said with frustration. "So, what can we do now to get this bottle"

Qin Chuchu said, "There's no other way, we can only go to the auction."

This thing even the appraiser at an auction couldn't figure out what it was. I guess no one would bid a high price for it. If you like it, I'll buy it back and give it to you later.

Ye Bufan nodded. Today, no matter what, he had to get this magic bottle. Such a chance to encounter a divine artifact didn't happen every day; missing it would be gone forever.

Qin ChuChu said in surprise, "Why do you value this bottle so much Even Master Yang doesn't recognize it. Do you know what it is"ook foolish."You...you..."He immediately flushed with anger."What are you talking about I said it before, only idiots would spend $100 million on this junk."After Ye Bufan finished speaking, he threw...
