demon. 。However, this spirit whip is far more complicated than it appears. Of the three transparent tendrils that make up the Golden Silk Spider's most powerful attack, two were severed by Lu Xia Tia..."Indeed, good, good, there's even a method for refining the accompanying magical artifacts. This is truly rare, truly rare." Feng Shiyuan mumbled to himself several times, then suddenly realized he had important business to attend to. He reluctantly put down the cultivation technique.
“With this skill alone, our esteemed guest can obtain a VIP seat at the Yunya Auction. You will be granted a private room. Now, I wonder if our guest would prefer to exchange it directly for spirit stones, or perhaps…” Feng Shiyuan’s heart thrummed with anticipation.
“Of course, I'm going to auction this skill.” Lu Xia Tian smirked. The reason he applied for a halt in the auction was naturally to bring this set of skills out for auction, letting everyone compete, so it could be sold at a high price. If he offered a price to the auction house people, even if the price was fair, it generally wouldn't be as much as a direct auction.
"Well, well, this item is certainly suitable as the final auction piece. I wonder if any esteemed guests have any other artifacts or techniques to offer I assure you, in our auction house, we will always strive to secure the most desirable price for your possessions."
Feng Shiyuan eagerly looked at Lu Xiaodao. Even in the Chiyan Continent, cultivators at the Nascent Soul stage were still legendary figures. Although there were some legends about Nascent Soul cultivators, after all, no one had ever witnessed them, and even those who were half-step Nascent Soul were rarely seen. A cultivator at the late Yuan Ying stage was already a top figure. To be able to cultivate to the late Nascent Soul stage was almost the ultimate goal that a cultivator could pursue now. At least that's what they thought. Even those hereditary immortal families might not have such complete cultivation techniques.
Let me know if you have other text you'd like translated!
"No need, the things that can be favored by your auction house are not simple. It seems I won't have to pay this ten million inferior spirit stones fine." Lu Xia Tian smiled.
"My esteemed guest jest," Feng Shikuan smiled awkwardly. He had indeed underestimated this person just now.
Feng Shikuan clapped his palms together, and two female cultivators who were even more beautiful than before walked over gracefully. "This esteemed guest is our auction house's most honored guest. You two, take the guest to the private room. The auction will begin again soon."
"Honorable guest, whatever you desire, the two of them will do their best to fulfill it." Feng Shikuan gave Lu Xia Tian a knowing look that every man would understand, then stood up and left.
Lu Xia Tian couldn't help but smile and shake his head. He only let the two female attendants lead him to a secret room before dismissing them. Although these female attendants were beautiful, it was obvious that many cultivators had already taken advantage of them. He wasn't interested in that.
“One more highlight lot is added, it surely won't disappoint all fellow cultivators. If you wish for a better chance, feel free to contact your people outside and gather resources now. The upcoming competition might be quite intense. In half an hour’s time, the auction will continue.” Feng Jiu received a message from Feng Shikuan and her eyes lit up.
In the bustling auction hall, everyone buzzed with speculation about what new treasure had arrived. Soon enough, whispers turned to the hooded cultivator who had just entered. This individual not only concealed their aura but also wore a hooded robe that blocked others from sensing their magical energy. As for Lu Xia Tian's identity, these people were left in the dark. However, this didn't stop them from indulging in hushed guesses.
Half a cup of tea's time passed quickly, and the auction for the Fire Cloud Bowl began.
Looking at the Fiery Cloud Bowl in front of him, Lu Xia Tian's face was filled with strong interest. This bowl could not only hold some spiritual fire, but also other fire-type spirits. Just as he needed Earthly Moon Gangsha for refining the Demon Suppressing Tower, although there was Earthly Moon Gangsha in the abandoned well in the backyard of Zhenwei Houfu, it was after all staying under someone else's roof. And since his identity had been exposed, Zhenwei Hou Cao Sheng treated him with courtesy now, but Lu Xia Tian didn't like this feeling of being under someone's watchful eye. With this Fiery Cloud Bowl, he could directly go to the abandoned well and absorb a large amount of Earthly Moon Gangsha into the Fiery Cloud Bowl, so he wouldn't be restricted by it anymore.
“Six million low-grade spirit stones!”
Having taken out the Fiery Inferno Towering Demon Art for auction, Lu Xiaoteng became much more confident and directly increased the starting price of the Fire Cloud Bowl. All the cultivators in the auction hall thought they had misheard. This increase was simply too drastic!
>
"Six million two hundred thousand." Lu Xia Tian could see the situation in the auction hall from inside the restriction. The bidder was Zhao Huitian, the brawny man with a back knife who had borrowed spirit stones from Jin Changdao before.
>
"Seven million!" Lu Xia Tian said coldly once again.
“Seven million!” Zhao Huitian suddenly scratched his ears and cheeks. He really wanted this magic weapon, but he was a bit short of money. Moreover, the person who raised the price made him feel inadequate. Another old man with a black face and round face, who was only a few feet away from Zhao Huitian, said with a sullen face.
"Eight million!"
The old man with a blackened face glanced at Zhao Huitian and slumped back down, no longer bidding.
"Haha, it seems our guest bidder is indeed wealthy and generous. Just from their bearing, they're already a cut above the rest. Not bad at all! Eight million low-grade spirit stones, deal!" The other bidders were stunned by Lu Xiaotian's relentless bidding, so Feng Jiu directly announced the result.
After hearing the auction results, Lu Xia Tian let out a slight sigh of relief. After all, this kind of spirit stone was so fast that even he had never seen it before.
The Yunya Auction indeed lived up to its name. The next few items were all top-notch, including even a spiritual spring amber. However, Lu Xiaoteng was now a seventh-rank body cultivator and had no use for this item. Otherwise, he would have probably done anything to get his hands on it.
“Next, let's auction something every sword cultivator dreams of: the fragmented remains of the Netherworld Sword, You Lan. This item cannot be cultivated; it is a rare treasure formed naturally between heaven and earth. Sadly, it is only a sealed fragment, otherwise, it wouldn't appear at an auction. Other Nascent Soul cultivators would have surely tried every means to get their hands on it. This fragment has little use for Nascent Soul cultivators, but for Golden Core sword cultivators, it is a once-in-a-millennium opportunity. The starting price is 20 million low-grade spirit stones, with each bid increase not less than one million!”
In Feng Jiu's introduction, two female attendants carried a jade box. The two Jindan female cultivators even showed a hint of struggle on their faces.
Within that transparent jade box, there was only a fragmented piece of jade bone, about an inch long. However, above the jade bone, there seemed to be a phantom like an empty valley orchid. The orchid stood beside it, with a large amount of sword energy swirling around it. If not sealed within, just these sword energies would likely scare away ordinary Jindan cultivators.
"What a Netherworld Sword,幽蘭!" Lu Xia Tian exclaimed within the restrictions, almost clapping his hands in excitement. He couldn't hide the tremor in his heart. He had inquired everywhere in Wushang City, even attending every golden elixir cultivator trading event within the city, but he had never received any news about this item.
>uld it be that someone from the Sangling Clan had attempted to ascend to the Golden Immortal realm and failed It was probably the only explanation, as such a grand display of power could only signify...
