Afterwards, the golden-masked person took out some special products from the Wood Clan and Spirit Clan in turn.

These items all had special uses, stirring some people in the hall, who then brought out items needed by the Black Domain to exchange.

Next, several more treasures were brought out one after another by the golden-masked person.

Each was a renowned extraordinary treasure, with divine abilities not inferior to the previous Seven Heaven Bell and that ancient banner.

Moreover, these treasures either had astonishing defense or heaven-defying attack; for an individual, their practical value even surpassed the previous two, absolutely being an excellent way to enhance one's strength!

Thus, the competition for these treasures in the hall became even more heated to an extreme point.

The last item was the 'Moving Sea Fan', ranked relatively high on the Chaos Myriad Spirits List, capable of moving mountains and overturning seas, covering the sky and blocking the sun, its power so great as to be unimaginable.

As a result, over twenty unknown cultivators piled out various materials, sparing no expense in their scramble for this treasure.

The golden-masked person then chose the one who offered the most materials and had him add a few more extraordinary treasures before exchanging for the Moving Sea Fan.

Han Li naturally also took a liking to this fan, but unfortunately, what it required for exchange was not 'spirit medicine', but some rare crystals as rumored; he had none of the sort.

After the exchange of the Moving Sea Fan, the Black Domain had traded away all items prepared for this gathering, and not a single one was obtained using spirit stones or the like.

This shows the Black Domain's thorough preparation, knowing exactly what everyone currently wanted.

"Our domain casts a brick to attract jade, having already exchanged everything we wished to exchange. Now, fellow Daoists, please go on stage freely to act as you wish. If there are still any rare items our domain fancies, we hope fellow Daoists will prioritize exchanging them with me. As for the rules, they remain the same as before: at most three people may go on stage at once to display exchanged items. Exchange conditions are entirely for fellow Daoists to negotiate among themselves; our domain will not interfere in the slightest. Well, I, the Venerable One, announce that free exchange begins!" Obviously pleased with the earlier gains, the golden-masked person said two sentences on stage and then announced the start of free exchange.

"Hehe, since fellow Daoist has said so, then let me begin first."

At the moment the golden-masked person's words fell, a gloomy voice suddenly sounded, followed by a black light shooting out from a certain flying pavilion; after a few flashes, it strangely appeared on the high platform within the light barrier.

It was a gray-robed person entwined all over with twisting strands of strange black light!

"Hmph, fellow Daoist, you are quite impatient!"

"Since that is the case, I also wish to seize the initiative!"

Almost simultaneously, several other escape lights also shot out from other flying pavilions at the same time.

However, two of them, upon seeing someone competing, immediately had one escape light suddenly blaze with great brilliance, vanishing into thin air like teleportation; but the next moment, it reappeared within the light barrier.

It was a graceful figure enveloped in five-colored light and rosy clouds, actually a female cultivator.

Another escape light, however, emitted a piercing cry from the body; suddenly, the escape light blurred slightly, then its speed increased severalfold, likewise landing first on the stone platform ahead of others.

Upon seeing this person clearly, Han Li's mouth twitched slightly, unable to hide the surprise on his face.

This third person had an extremely strange physique; whether lying horizontally or standing vertically, his body was several zhang long, like a huge meatball lying there.

And on top of this meatball sat an ordinary man's head, yet his face was full of sorrowful expression, completely uncovered.

As for the remaining few, their escape lights were clearly a beat slow; upon contacting the white light barrier, they went "bang bang" and were rebounded outward, unable to enter.

"Several fellow Daoists, please return for now. You may go on stage again in the next round." The golden-masked person clasped his hands toward those outside the light barrier and said politely.

The several people outside were greatly unwilling, but seeing this situation, they could only coldly snort a few times in resignation and leave.

Meanwhile, the gray-robed person who first seized the stage within the light barrier let out a triumphant loud laugh.

Being able to display one's exchange items in the first round is naturally a great advantage; otherwise, if the needed items were taken first by those ahead, one could only stare helplessly and stomp one's feet in frustration.

But at this moment, after the golden-masked person's gaze swept over that "meatball", he actually chuckled lightly and said:

"I never expected that in this exchange gathering, Brother Zhu would also participate and even rush ahead so eagerly. It seems the previous loss of a great treasure has left fellow Daoist still very unwilling."

"If not for being only one step behind that person last time, similarly the Hundred-Joint Pearls, my pearl being of higher quality than his by a notch, that item would not have been taken by him. However, this is not yet the most annoying; the most vexing is that, no matter which exchange gathering I attend, my body shape is instantly recognized by others, and no matter how I try to conceal my true appearance with spells, it is of no use." The meatball sighed, as if the sorrow on his face deepened a bit.

"Hehe, Brother Zhu's cultivated profound art is indeed renowned from ancient times of the noble clans; although one cannot freely change one's physique, its power is such that countless people envy it endlessly. This minor flaw, what is it worth?"

This meatball seems to have a significant background; the golden-masked person treated him with extreme courtesy.

"Hehe, although I know your words are merely comforting, yet I enjoy hearing them. I hope this time I can truly gain much." The 'meatball' still appeared listless.

Upon hearing this, the golden-masked person smiled faintly, then retreated more than ten steps on his own and stood at a corner of the golden-colored spell formation, saying nothing more.

"Since Brother Zhu is also on stage, please, Brother Zhu, first display your items." The gray-robed person clearly also greatly feared the 'meatball', his eyes slightly turning before clasping his hands toward it and saying so.

The female cultivator beside, enveloped in five-colored light and rosy clouds, although silent, also nodded faintly.

"Since the two fellow Daoists have been so modest, then I will not be polite." The 'meatball' narrowed his eyes, also accepting it openly.

Next, he suddenly slapped his round belly, opened his mouth, and spat out a cluster of dazzling white small bottles, then grabbed them in his hand.

"Three clusters of Golden Crow True Fire! Only exchange for Golden Bone Lingzhi and Meridian-Wrong Grass, two kinds of ten-thousand-year-old spirit medicines! Each stalk exchanges for only one cluster!" The 'meatball' loudly announced to all around.

"Golden Crow True Fire, real or fake, actually able to obtain such true spirit fire?"

"Since he took it out, it is probably not wrong. But he is truly willing to part with it."

……

A sound of whispered muttering suddenly echoed in the void.

Han Li also felt a moment of astonishment, then rubbed his chin, revealing a look of thoughtful contemplation.

His Spirit-Devouring True Fire initially, in the Magic Gold Mountain Range, absorbed a strand of this true fire from demonic birds on their bodies, resulting in a considerable increase in the power of his Spirit-Devouring True Fire. If this demonic cultivator truly possesses this true fire in hand, and moreover has as many as three clusters, it could indeed allow his Spirit-Devouring True Fire to advance another great step.

Unfortunately, the other party's tone is extremely firm, and what they wish to exchange for is also not something he possesses. This made him involuntarily feel vexed in his heart.

At this moment, the meatball carefully opened the bottle cap, then slapped the bottle bottom with one palm!

After three "puff" sounds, three clusters of white blazing light flew out from the bottle; after a flash, they transformed into three white fire crows, circling and dancing before the meatball.

These three fire crows are entirely snow-white, but during their flight and dance, faint silver-colored runes can be seen rolling and appearing near their bodies.

Scorching heat instantly filled the entire light barrier, even causing that layer of white light barrier to emit a layer of 'milky' white light, and trembling slightly without cease.

"Indeed, it is Golden Crow True Fire!"

"If one cultivating fire-attribute divine abilities refines this fire, they can benefit endlessly from it."

Another murmur came from all around; paths of envy and greedy gazes fell upon the three white fire crows.

Even though spiritual sense is restricted, those attending the exchange gathering all have extraordinary eyesight; despite such distance, most can still judge this Golden Crow True Fire to be **not off by ten.

"Eh, it turns out to be merely diluted Golden Crow True Fire!"

Han Li's blue light flashed in his eyes; after clearly seeing the true nature of the Golden Crow True Fire within the three white fire crows, he muttered a sentence with a hint of strange expression on his face.

This remark was almost inaudible; even the nearby Black Gauze Servant No. 11 could not hear clearly what it was.

However, that hint of gloom between Han Li's brows and eyes had mostly dissipated, and he coldly surveyed everything on the stone platform.

At this moment, the gray-robed man also produced a lotus-shaped three-color ice-attribute treasure, claiming it could simultaneously release three kinds of extreme cold flames, and when paired with those cultivating ice-attribute techniques, its power would be boundless, though he stated clearly he would only exchange it for a fire-attribute treasure of opposite attribute.

Among the five-colored light clouds, the unknown female cultivator who finally produced her exchanged item revealed it to be a blood-red sphere the size of a skull, which was actually the beast egg of the Bloodflame Eagle, a ferocious ancient beast renowned for its violence from the barbaric wilderness.

Upon adulthood, the Bloodflame Eagle spreads its wings to a length of over ten zhang, excelling in the extremely rare blood-attribute divine ability; depending on innate talent, it can ultimately possess strength rivaling the Void Refinement stage or even the early Mahayana stage.

This female cultivator claimed the beast egg was obtained from a pair of Bloodflame Eagles possessing Mahayana-stage divine abilities in their nest, hence she specifically requested exchange for a spirit treasure-level item.

This naturally aroused interest among some cultivators of ice-attribute techniques and those skilled in driving spirit beasts. After a brief moment, someone began producing treasures to attempt exchanging for the two items.

As for the two items sought by the meatball, they were clearly overly rare treasures; even though more people were interested in the Golden Crow True Fire, no one could produce the required spirit medicine to exchange for it.

Seeing that the items held by the gray-robed man and the female cultivator had both been finally exchanged to satisfaction, the meatball's troubled expression inevitably deepened further.

After a short while, seeing that no one had yet come up to exchange with it, the meatball sighed, retracted the three white fire crows before it, and immediately flew out of the light barrier, returning on its own to its stone pavilion.

He actually gave up on this exchange.

This naturally caused another stir among the others.

However, immediately afterward, three others rushed ahead and flew onto the stone platform, beginning the next round of free exchange.
