Cheat Cultivator's Ascension

Looking at the jade slip, some of the people recognizes it as they're in the proximity when Wu Xiaotian was refining it, astonishing them as the immortal-like young man refined the jade slip at an extremely fast speed, making them wonder about the authenticity of the young man's claim.

They don't have the guts whether it's real or not though as they already saw and is scared of what Wu Xiaotian could do to them just with his soul power alone, hence they decided to just stay put and watch for now, thinking that it will eventually be revealed whether the jade slip could really achieve such effect once demonstrated.

Sensing those doubtful gaze, Wu Xiaotian continues explaining the purpose of the jade slip, each sentence coming out of his mouth making those interested more and more wide eyed.

"This is a portable array that can be deployed so long as there's enough spirit qi stored inside, and its reusable, so only one purchase is needed, well, except for when the array is damaged, which then you can bring to us so that we can repair them"

As he continues his sales talk, more and more people start to get interested to the jade slip Wu Xiaotian is selling, not to mention all the effects it has, just the notion of a portable array alone makes it extremely impressive, as even the geniuses of those extremely powerful forces are oblivious of this concept, proving the rarity of such item even more.

"Friend, is this portable array… an idea of yours?" unable to hold himself back, Dao Xuanyuan asked, curiosity getting the better of his mind.

"Indeed, so far, I've already refined the concept to a great degree so it's already practically usable" Wu Xiaotian answers while nodding at Dao Xuanyuan, sending a telepathic message of thanks as he sensed that the daoist intended to do that to help him gain even more traction.

Think about it, if a genius is knocking on your door to sell such great product, nearly every person that can afford it will purchase it without a second thought, not to mention something as innovative and new as the thing Wu Xiaotian is selling.

"While this would both tie the user and all the people in the area down, this will help bridge the gap between opponents especially when a body cultivator fights against qi cultivators"

"Not only that, but fighting inside this can help in training the body of a cultivator, making it stronger and more resilient"

"Finally, this will be of great use to people who want to train and improve their combat prowess themselves, as I've also included multiple other functions here, including a control for adjusting gravity, as well as reinforcement property so that nothing around it will be destroyed"

"The range is quite limited, only reaching a radius of fifty meters, but this will improve for the other versions in the future"

After stating the benefits of the jade slip, most, if not all of the people listening already wants one, after all, a tool that you can carry anywhere anytime, that can help not only with dealing enemy but also with training is an extremely great attraction to any cultivator.

Looking at the faces in front of him, Wu Xiaotian smiles brilliantly, causing women, and even men in the audience to be stunned, losing themselves for a bit before snapping back to reality due to the voice of the immortal-like young man spreading across the arena again.

{Lil bro, set the auction in our place, it would be quite dangerous for you during these times given everything that you did to the Purple Lightning Temple} Hua Xian'er, out of concern towards Wu Xiaotian, offered, her voice a bit excited as she also wants to have one of the jade slips.

{Wow, the princess of Heavenly Secret Tower is personally inviting me to her place, what an honor!!} after listening to the crowd, mostly the well-informed ones, Wu Xiaotian was finally given a glimpse of the immensity of Hua Xian'er's identity, being the child of one of the tower masters of the greatest information guild in the continent, a force that even the imperial powers in the central province needs to be weary of.

{I though you don't care about my identity when we swore siblinghood to each other, why bring it now?} Hua Xian'er, hearing his teasing, pouts her lips as she pretends to be angry, the first time Wu Xiaotian see her looking extremely feminine.

{Ahem, big sis, you acting like that is really dangerous for the heart, good thing I have a strong heart}

{Hoh, do you finally notice the womanly charm of this elder sister of yours? You can praise me more you know} hearing his words, Hua Xian'er smiles smugly as she points her nose to the sky, looking like an arrogant prick waiting for a beating.

{Forget it, looking like that won't change what you really are} he mocks, even transmitting the sigh at the end of his sentence to the empress-like lady.

{Hey!! What do you mean by that… SU TIAN!!! Don't ignore me and answer my damn question!!!}

Ignoring the voice of Hua Xian'er shouting at him in his mind, Wu Xiaotian announced the auction of the jade slips, making the crowd more excited once they heard the location of the auction.

"A few months after the secret realm closes, The Cloud Auction House in the Heavenly Secret City will open its doors to everyone who has the capability to compete for the jade slips. Five, there are only five of them currently, and the cheaper, mass-produced version will only come out far later."

"As for those who will win in the auction though, there's no need to think that you're tricked out of your money, why? Because each of these five are personally marked artifacts, an identity of sort that will provide you various privilege, including advance access to improved version of this artifact, as well as other products in the future"

The sales talk really got most of the people as they got even more eager to win the jade slips in the auction, the privilege of having something good ahead of others fueling their desire for it.

After the presentation, Wu Xiaotian snap his fingers again, dispersing the soul power blocking the ambient qi, Lei Xing's lightning spirit form returning again as it devours the qi in the surrounding voraciously, screaming as he tries to pounce towards Wu Xiaotian again.

Calmy opening the jade slip, Lei Xing starts returning to his physical body again, falling into the ground once more as if he's drained of all his strength, the struggling man only able to let out groans as he fell face flat into the ground.

"Now for the gravity effect…" as Wu Xiaotian muttered, the air around the area near the jade slip starts to get heavier and heavier, causing cracks to appear in the stone platform as Lei Xing starts to get pressed deeper and deeper into it.

"Aaaaagggghhhhhh!!!!" only the pained screams of Lei Xing were heard out of him, no longer able to move himself on the ground.

"And then, the reinforcement" as Wu Xiaotian said, the ground starts getting harder, no longer cracking while the gravity continues to bear down on his opponent.

"GAAAAAHHH!!!!" as despair filled Lei Xing's entire being, the only thought still running on his mind is how much longer does he need to endure before he can escape from the demon in front of him.
