It was barely dawn but many cultivators were already heading in the direction of Donglai Treasure Pavilion.

Donglai Treasure Pavilion was a property under Donglai Dao Sect, the strongest force in Qing State, and had a presence in every city in Qing State.

The treasures that were to be auctioned at Donglai Treasure Pavilion in Lin’an City were all incredibly rare. In particular, there was a godly material from an uncharted land and this naturally captured the attention of many cultivators.

Many even came here in a hurry from all over the world.

When Lin Xun and Jintian Xuanyue set out, they saw many Saints along the way, including True Saints, Big Saints and Saint-Kings...

Some of whom were powerful figures who had set foot on the Supreme Path!

Lin Xun couldn’t help but marvel at the spectacle. The Great Primordial Chaos World indeed lived up to its name of being the largest world in the Ancient Nebula Road.

Lin’an City was just one of the tens of thousands of cities in Qing State, yet it had gathered so many Saint cultivators. He had never seen such a spectacle in other worlds.

“Young Master, I’ve also noticed that, from the moment we left the inn, there have been quite a few people secretly watching us,” whispered Jintian Xuanyue.

She was dressed in plain clothes with her long, lustrous black hair rolled up in a bun, revealing her beautiful and fair neck. She had a tall and slender figure with perfect proportions, but her breathtakingly stunning face had been masked with disguise. Now, she still looked graceful but not breathtaking.

Even so, the noble aura that emanated from her every movement still drew countless attention along the way.

This was the grace of an unparalleled beauty. Her beauty was more than her physical appearance; she radiated beauty from her actions, words, temperament, and aura.

Lin Xun grunted in acknowledgment. “Just ignore it.”

By the time they arrived in Donglai Treasure Pavilion, it was already packed with people and incredibly busy.

Fortunately, as soon as Jintian Xuanyue took out two admission tickets, the two were quickly led inside.

The inside of the auction hall was huge, covered with many restriction arrays, like a giant upside-down bowl.

“Distinguished guests, please come with me.”

A beautiful attendant led the way.

Only then did Lin Xun realize that the two admission tickets that Jintian Xuanyue bought were VIP seats in a special private room that blocked spirit senses from investigating them.

Those two admission tickers alone were worth twenty thousand dao crystals!

Such an amount was enough to purchase a high-grade Saint treasure.

Before long, the entire auction hall was filled with cultivators. According to Lin Xun’s rough estimate, the sale of admission tickets amounted to three million dao crystals for Donglai Treasure Pavilion.

About a minute later, Lin Xun and Jintian Xuanyue sat down in the VIP room.

A beautiful, sophisticatedly-dressed woman walked nimbly up the auction stage. Her red lips were slightly opened and she had a smiling expression in her eyes.

“Everyone, welcome to Donglai Treasure Pavilion. My name is Pu Lanzhi, and I am the auctioneer for this auction.”

Before her voice faded, mutters of exclamations rippled through the venue.

“It’s her! Elder Pu Lanzhi, an elder of Donglai Dao Sect and a renowned supreme Saint-King in Qing State.”

Who would have thought that a mere auction event would invite a supreme Saint-King to act as the auctioneer?! This arrangement was already astonishing.

However, it only made everyone more excited about the upcoming auction.

“At this auction, there will be thirty-seven treasures being auctioned. The number might be a little less than you might have expected, but I guarantee that each one of these treasures will not disappoint you.

“Okay, without further ado, let’s present the first treasure.”

As Pu Lanzhi finished speaking, a female attendant walked up the auction stage with a bronze box in her hands.

The hall instantly quieted down, and all eyes were shifted onto the item.

As expected, Donglai Treasure Pavilion did not disappoint. Right from the beginning, it ignited enthusiasm and excitement in the cultivators present and created a stir.

“The Sun-Moon Dragon-Phoenix Blades, a rare treasure of ancient times, is far superior to any ordinary Saint treasures. But what’s most remarkable about the pair of treasures that perfectly matched each other is that they can break through spatial barriers with their unpredictable powers.”

An uproar broke out the moment that Pu Lanzh finished speaking and everyone’s eyes were blazing brightly.

It should be mentioned that for an item to be called an ancient treasure it had to have been created more than one hundred thousand years ago. Now, they were presented with a pair of ancient treasures that complemented each other!

The most marvelous feature of them had to be their power, which could break through spatial barriers. This meant that anyone armed with this pair of treasures could forge a way out no matter what remote place they were trapped in. How would it not arouse everyone’s interest?

When Pu Lanzhi opened the bronze box, a pair of sharp blades glowed with a magnificent light, forming visions of the sun and the moon amidst the faint roar of dragons and phoenixes.

What an astonishing scene!

Many people looked infatuated as gasps rang out in rapid succession.

Even some big shots’ interest was piqued.

Unquestionably, it was a pair of magnificent treasures!

Pu Lanzhi smiled slightly, satisfied with the reaction. “The starting price is three hundred thousand dao crystals, and the minimum bidding increment is ten thousand dao crystals.”

“Four hundred thousand!”

As soon as she said that, someone couldn’t wait to bid and raised the price by one hundred thousand, causing a commotion.

“The pair of treasures is not bad. It is just what I need right now, five hundred thousand!”

“Sorry but I must have that pair of treasures. Six hundred thousand!”

……

In the auction hall, bidders called out their bids, and in just a short moment, the bidding of the Sun-Moon Dragon-Phoenix Blades was driven to a sky-high price. It was an extremely exciting and enjoyable atmosphere.

Finally, the pair of treasures was won by an important figure sitting in a private room, who paid one million three hundred thousand dao crystals for the prize.

It was Lin Xun’s first time attending an auction, so the entire process of the first treasure being bought was quite novel to him.

However, although the Sun-Moon Dragon-Phoenix Blades were wonderful, it was not his cup of tea, so he never made a bid.

Jintian Xuanyue also remained calm and composed. She was very knowledgeable and occasionally would explain some auction tips to Lin Xun.

“The second item to be auctioned is an intact relic of an ancient Sage.”

Not long after, Pu Lanzhi took out the second treasure.

“Relic of an ancient Sage! Wouldn’t it contain the secret of becoming a Sage?”

“This is really worth the trip here! Only after becoming a Sage would one be able to set foot into the Supreme Saint-King Stage. If I have that relic, I will only need to put in half the effort to get twice the result in working towards the Saint Path Ritual.”

The buzz in the auction hall rose to an excited clamor. Many people were stirred up. If the first two auctioned items were already so rare, one could imagine what would follow.

However, some people lamented. Given their financial abilities, they had no chance at all in the auction.

Lin Xun was very excited at first, but gradually his interest had noticeably waned.

This was because the treasures auctioned all had little use to him.

As time went by, the treasures presented were more and more amazing.

“Huh?”

Just when Lin Xun was feeling a little bored, he suddenly sensed that Broken Blade was buzzing in his body, eager to come out.

At this moment, on the auction stage, Pu Lanzhi took out a fist-sized ore aglow with a dreamy sky-blue color. Its surface was covered with natural silver dao runes and it emitted a beautiful, wondrous star-like luster.

“A Sky Blue Mythic Spirit Stone with seventy-two mythic spirit dao runes. It is a godly material for tempering a life-bound Saint weapon. The starting price is four hundred thousand dao crystals and the minimum bidding increment is fifty thousand dao crystals,” Pu Lanzhi stated.

“The price is too high.” Someone shook their head, and many people echoed their words.

Unlike ordinary Saint treasures, life-bound Saint weapons were extremely rare. Only a few ancient orthodoxies had secret inheritance techniques to craft life-bound Saint weapons.

Moreover, even if one had grasped one of those secret crafting techniques, the process would be extremely difficult because it required lucky opportunities for the life-bound Saint weapon to transform again and again.

Although the Sky Blue Mythic Spirit Stone was precious, it was still just a godly material. Hence, ordinary cultivators were hesitant to spend a huge amount of money to purchase one.

However, there was no shortage of wealthy individuals at the auction, and someone quickly announced their bid.

“Four hundred and fifty thousand dao crystals.”

“Five hundred thousand.”

However, the bidding was rather slow compared to before, and when the price reached eight hundred thousand dao crystals, no one was bidding anymore.

Seeing that the treasure was about to be auctioned, Lin Xun finally made a bid, “Eight hundred and fifty thousand.”

“Hmph!”

The previous bidder was also a cultivator in a VIP room. Seeing Lin Xun bid higher than him, he grunted in a rough and powerful voice, showing his dissatisfaction.

“Nine hundred thousand.” He bid again.

“One million.” Lin Xun showed no hesitation in raising the price by one hundred thousand dao crystal!

The auction hall was filled with gasps. No one expected the bidding of a Sky Blue Mythic Spirit Stone would reach the figure of one million dao crystals. They spent money like water!

It should be mentioned that one million dao crystals was enough to purchase a top-quality Saint treasure!

“Friend, do you really want to fight with me?” The rough and powerful voice trembled with anger.

“We are just bidding. If you can’t afford it, then give up. If you can afford it, then continue. I’ll play with you to the end,” Lin Xun said indifferently.

In the auction hall, cultivators clicked their tongues.

Is it worth getting angry over a Sky Blue Mythic Spirit Stone?

“Haha, did you say I can’t afford it? Ever since I started cultivating, no one has ever dared to talk to me like this. If you want to play, then I’ll play with you!” The rough voice laughed angrily, “One million and two hundred thousand!”

A commotion broke out.

Pu Lanzhi who was standing on the auction stage had a slight smile on her lips. This type of customer was her favorite at the auction. Whether it was their ego or they were acting out of emotions, they would definitely announce an extremely high bid.

“Young Master, the price is already outrageous. It’s not worth it at all.”

In the VIP room, Jintian Xuanyue reminded Lin Xun. She was very surprised and could not understand why Lin Xun would spend so much on one godly material.

Lin Xun smiled. “Just watch.”

Then, he continued to bid, “One and a half million.”

The entire auction hall fell silent for a moment. All cultivators looked dazed and almost thought they had heard it wrong.

Is he crazy?

One and a half million dao crystals was an astronomical number to ordinary people at the Saint Stage. Even a Saint-King probably would not be able to come up with so many dao crystals at once.

But someone actually spent one and a half million just for one godly material. Everyone freaked out and felt a fit of dizziness.

Are we too ignorant or is this world too crazy?
