Chapter Index

Yang Kai’s question was rather abrupt. Wu Yi didn’t think too much about it and immediately began to list them off as if enumerating her family treasures.

“The Qianyun Pill that can repair meridians, the Fuhun Pill that can repair the soul, the kind of Qiangwei Pill that Elder Qian Tong took out last time is also very valuable. But if we talk about the most valuable ones, they should be the Ningxu Pill and the Xunie Pill. The latter can almost be said to be a priceless treasure because it can help the strong at the third level of the Return to Void Realm to promote to the Void King Realm and increase the probability of promotion. There are no warriors of this level on our You’an Star, but there are many at the third level of the Return to Void Realm. If we can get a Xunie Pill, it will not be difficult to exchange it with those big forces for several prosperous cities.” Wu Yi said, and her breathing became rapid as she spoke.

“Don’t think about that.” Yang Kai shook his head resolutely.

The Xunie Pill is a Void King lower-grade pill. Not to mention that Yang Kai doesn’t have all the materials now, even if he has enough materials, he can’t refine it. However, the Ningxu Pill can be refined because the Ningxu Pill is only a Void lower-grade pill, which is one big grade lower than the Xunie Pill.

“Brother Yang, why are you asking these questions?” Wu Yi looked at Yang Kai curiously.

“It’s nothing. You wait for a while longer, and I’ll come out right away.” Yang Kai said and turned around and went into the stone room again.

Although Yang Yan and Wu Yi were confused, they waited outside obediently. About half an hour later, Yang Kai came out again and said, “Let’s go.”

The three of them walked towards Tianyun City happily.

After experiencing the incident where Qian Tong came and showed his great power last time, Yang Kai believes that no one should come to Longxue Mountain to cause trouble for him now, so he can also leave with peace of mind.

On the other hand, Yang Kai is not very relieved to let Wu Yi and Yang Yan, two women, bring two Void-level secret treasures to participate in the auction, and naturally has to follow along to escort them.

He really wants to know what kind of price these two secret treasures can fetch. A Saint King-level top-grade secret treasure is worth thirty to fifty thousand top-grade Saint Crystals. As for a Void-level low-grade secret treasure, it should be two or three hundred thousand, right? Yang Kai has a vague calculation in his heart. Selling these two secret treasures, he can then go on a big shopping spree for materials to set up formations.

Along the way, listening to Wu Yi and Yang Yan chatting non-stop, Yang Kai only then learned that Jubaolou is not the property of Yingyue Palace at all.

Jubaolou is a power even stronger than Yingyue Palace!

The nature of this power is somewhat similar to that of the Hengluo Chamber of Commerce, with its business spread all over You’an Star, but there are also some differences. It collects treasures from all over the world and holds a grand auction every once in a while.

And the location of the auction is not fixed either. It is held by the branch buildings all over in You’an Star. And this time it just happens to be the turn of the Jubaolou branch building in Tianyun City.

The auction of Jubaolou can be said to be a grand event on the entire You’an Star. Because before each auction, Jubaolou will vigorously promote, make the patterns of some precious items into exquisite picture albums, and send them to the hands of those big forces to attract them to participate in the auction.

It can be said that the auction of Jubaolou is a great battle where all the forces on the entire You’an Star gather, competing in financial resources, material resources and heritage. Every time it is lively, and many times some very heaven-defying things have appeared. Even once, a virtual king-level defensive secret treasure appeared!

According to legend, that secret treasure was sold for a sky-high price of 500 million top-grade saint crystals plus fifteen prosperous cities!

Even though Yang Kai has a good temperament, he was also shocked beyond measure by this number. After all, You’an Star is still a bit too backward, and there are too few secret treasures above the virtual lower grade, so this is outrageous price was created.

Yang Kai believes that on other cultivation stars, even if the virtual king-level secret treasures are expensive, they cannot be so expensive.

“That virtual nirvana pill also appeared once. It seems that it was bought by a big shot of the Leitai Sect. Unfortunately, that person took the virtual nirvana pill and still couldn’t successfully break through to the virtual king realm. Instead, his own cultivation level has declined. I don’t know if it’s true or false.” Wu Yi gently sighed.

Yang Kai’s expression was indifferent. Although he didn’t interrupt, he basically determined that what Wu Yi said was true.

Medicinal pills are after all just auxiliary means. Although those medicinal pills that can help martial artists increase the probability of breaking through a major realm are of high value and difficult to refine, they are not omnipotent. It doesn’t mean that one will definitely be promoted after taking the medicinal pill. If a person’s understanding of the martial way and the heavenly way has not reached that level, even taking more medicinal pills will be of no avail.

On the contrary. If the understanding of the martial way and the heavenly way exceeds that bottleneck, even without taking the medicinal pill, when the time comes, one will still be promoted.

Yang Kai himself is like this. His understanding of the heavenly way and the martial way has always been much higher than his current realm. Therefore, he has never used the medicinal pills he refined to promote his realm, and has also saved a large amount of expenses.

That big shot of the Lei Tai Sect’s understanding and application of momentum must not have been successful. If it was successful, he wouldn’t have wasted a Void Nirvana Pill.

Such precious things can be refined by very few people in the entire star field and should have been obtained through some other channels.

After a martial artist fails to hit the bottleneck, he will also suffer different degrees of backlash. In mild cases, he will be seriously injured. In severe cases, like that big shot of the Lei Tai Sect, his strength will decline, and in even more serious cases, he may even lose his life.

Therefore, if martial artists don’t have enough confidence and certainty, even if they reach the bottleneck, they don’t dare to challenge the next realm at will.

This kind of thing couldn’t be seen when the martial artist’s strength was low, so there were basically no such examples on the Tongxuan Continent. Even if there were, they were extremely few and the backlash wasn’t strong. But once the strength was high, some situations would easily occur.

It was only after Yang Kai came to the Star Field that he slowly learned about this information.

The three of them, chatting and laughing, soon arrived at the Jubaolou in Tianyun City.

Standing in front of that towering palace, Yang Kai finally knew what was meant by a big deal! This Jubaolou occupied the most prosperous area of Tianyun City, almost covering half a street. People were coming and going in front of the building, bustling with activity. The three gilt characters on the building plaque were golden and shining, dazzling the eyes.

A faint but powerful aura overflowed from within the Jubaolou, making Yang Kai secretly awed.

There were at least hundreds of Void Returning Realm powerhouses in this building. Fortunately, those people were all here to participate in the auction and didn’t deliberately target anyone, so Yang Kai wasn’t too uncomfortable.

In front of the Jubaolou, two Void Returning 1-layer Realm experts stood with their hands down. Their two pairs of eyes were as sharp as eagles, sweeping over the passing crowd. As soon as Yang Kai and the other two just stood still, one of the experts in a light cyan long shirt took a step forward and raised his hand to signal, “Visitors stop. The Jubaolou is about to hold an auction and is temporarily not open to the public. If you want to buy something, please come again tomorrow!”

“We are here to participate in the auction.” Yang Kai said indifferently, and then turned his head to look at Wu Yi.

He knew that to participate in an auction of this grade, an invitation was necessary, and the invitation that Qian Tong gave him last time should be the voucher to enter the Jubaolou. At this moment, it was in Wu Yi’s hands.

Wu Yi seemed to be immersed in the magnificent momentum of the Jubaolou. Thinking that she actually had the opportunity to participate in an auction of this grade, her mood was very excited, and her small face was flushed. It was not until Yang Kai looked at her that she suddenly remembered the matter of the invitation and rummaged through her space ring in a flurry.

“Haha, why can any cat or dog participate in the auction of the Jubaolou?” A burst of laughter came from the side, and the contempt in the laughter was palpable.

Yang Kai frowned and looked in the direction of the sound source Youdaoplaceholder0 to see who had such a strong tone. Being taunts as a cat or dog for no reason, Yang Kai was of course not happy.

A young man in the guise of a white-shirted son stepped forward. He had a pair of very enchanting phoenix eyes with hidden divine light. Although there was a smile on his face, anyone could see the disdain in his eyes. This young man was not old, with a tall and slender figure and a very handsome appearance. Matched with those enchanting phoenix eyes, he was definitely a role who could fascinate thousands of women.

Yang Kai’s heart chilled, because he discovered that this young man actually had the cultivation level of the Third-Order Saint King, and there was a faint oppressive feeling on him. The strength of his entire aura was not inferior to Xue Yue of the Heng Luo Chamber of Commerce at all.

Behind the young man followed two experts with long and restrained auras, seemingly a notch higher in cultivation than Hong Zhen and his senior brother. The two were uniformly dressed in black tight-fitting clothes, and there was a vigorously-written big character embroidered on the chest.

Battle!

“The Battle Heaven Alliance!” Wu Yi exclaimed in surprise and quickly stepped aside.

So it was someone from the Battle Heaven Alliance. No wonder he was young but had great strength. Yang Kai had been on the Dark Star for some time and naturally knew that the Battle Heaven Alliance was one of the few major forces here.

Moreover, among the younger generation of the Battle Heaven Alliance, there was a disciple with heaven—defying talent — Qu Changfeng. It was rumored that he had a pair of phoenix eyes.

If he guessed correctly, the young man in front of him should be Qu Changfeng, who was famous throughout the Dark Star.

Sure enough, when the guard who had just blocked Yang Kai’s way saw this young man, he immediately bowed respectfully and bow: “Young Master Qu, please come in!”

“Mm.” Qu Changfeng nodded faintly, his gaze swept over Wu Yi and Yang Yan, and he let out a light eh and stopped his steps. With a smile on his face, he said: “Do the two girl want to enter the Jubaolou?”

Neither Wu Yi nor Yang Yan answered.

Qu Changfeng said to himself, “It’s impossible to get in now. There’s going to be an auction inside. Without an invitation, these two guards won’t let you pass. But if you really want to go in, you can come with me. What do you two girls think?”

He invited them with a smile, looking harmless, but Yang Yan and Wu Yi were not the kind of women who would be infatuated. Naturally, they knew what he meant.

“Qu Changfeng, after a few years, you still like to show off your sense of superiority in front of the weak. Is it really so great to be able to participate in the auction, or is it that your Zhantian League is so great? A deep voice sounded. As soon as Qu Changfeng, who was inviting Yang Yan and Wu Yi, heard this voice, he frowned like eating a fly. The smile on his face like the spring breeze disappeared in the blink of an eye and then he turned his head and looked behind.

Behind, a young man in simple gray clothes strode over. He was not dressed as ostentatiously as Qu Changfeng, but rather simply, looking ridiculous like a farmer. However, Qu Changfeng did not have the slightest intention to look down on him. There was a thick sense of fear and solemnity in his phoenix eyes.
