Chapter 150:1 Have a Way

In the auction hall, the semi-elliptic dome was luxurious, magnificent, and grand. The huge crystal lamp in the center shone down. The cultivators of the Danxia Sect, the Acacia Faction, the Luosha Demonic Valley, and other sects entered one after another.

Such a grand auction, even Golden Core cultivators rarely could sit in the private room of the second story that surrounded them. Those who were qualified to enter were all late-stage Golden Core, Pseudo Nascent Soul, and even Nascent Soul experts of the various large sects.

Shen Ping’s private room was located in front of the high platform.

Standing inside, the seats below were all visible.

As he pushed the door open and stepped in, his wife and concubines were nervous and excited. This was the first time they had participated in an auction of this level. Moreover, they were sitting in a private room. Looking at the many Foundation Establishment seniors in front of them, as well as the Golden Core cultivators, his wife and concubines seemed to have returned to their husband’s Foundation Establishment banquet.

Shen Ping’s expression was still considered calm. After experiencing the Foundation Establishment banquet and the tasting banquet, he gradually got used to such a scene. “There’s an array formation in the private room of the auction hall that blocks divine sense detection. Yun’er, Ying’er… relax. We’re just here to join in the fun.”

Hearing this, Bai Yuying stuck out her tongue and sat on the soft jade chair. Her fair face flickered with excitement as she said softly, “Husband, you’re becoming more and more powerful. In the past, 1 felt my legs go weak when I saw Foundation Establishment seniors. Now, when I see many Golden Core cultivators, my expression is normal. All of this was brought about by you.”

A smile appeared on Yu Yan’s lips. “With you around, we can sit here.”

Luo Qing did not say anything, but there was a hint of affection in her eyes.

The two pots of Begonia Drunken Fish Spirit Coral Wine had already completely melted her heart. Wang Yun was the same. Her eyes were filled with her husband.

Mu Jin, who was wearing a purple silk dress with emerald patterns, did not sit down. She stood behind Wang Yun and Yu Yan. Her sweet face was flushed, and her legs were already tense under the skirt. She looked straight at the high platform in front of her, but the scenes of the Hidden Spirit House appeared in front of her. If she could put it here…

Yin Honglian also stood behind the jade chair. Her fiery red dress was slightly gorgeous. Her face was calm, but she was already a little shocked. At this moment, she finally realized what a special-class guest elder of the True Treasure Pavilion was.

Boom.

As the seats in the private room were filled, a seven-colored flame pillar suddenly jumped out from the edge of the platform. Immediately after, a woman in a purple orchid palace dress walked towards the platform step by step on the flame pillar. Her graceful and noble aura attracted many gazes.

Soon, Perfected Qiu’s voice rang out. “Fellow Daoists, thank you for coming to our True Treasure Pavilion’s grand auction that happens once every five years.”

Hearing that familiar voice, Shen Ping’s gaze landed on Perfected Qiu, who was blooming like a peony. He could not help but smile. He seemed to have seen what was inside the purple orchid dress. He could even imagine the urgency of Perfected Qiu’s Golden Core.

“Fellow Daoist Shen. Have you made any progress on the matter of the blood of the strange beast?” Pei Huoyu’s voice suddenly interrupted Shen Ping’s thoughts.

He glanced sideways at Pei Huoyu and replied, “There is indeed a little. It’s all thanks to Senior Pei’s reminder. 1 found clues from the various jade slips recorded in the Moon Lotus Holy Sect, but I’m not sure.”

Pei Huoyu’s eyes lit up. “Tell me what it is.”

Shen Ping hesitated and said, “This concerns the body of a woman. I…”

Pei Huoyu’s valiant expression did not change at all. “Go ahead.”

Shen Ping first briefly explained the “Views of the Gateway” that he had read before saying, “The Views of the Gateway records that the Spirit Sunflower Body has seven transformations. Perfected Qiu is at the second transformation level. I guess that the reason why it can cause the blood of strange beasts to boil is mainly because of the final body of this physique. It’s a pity that the jade slip doesn’t have detailed records. However, I have a way to prove it.”

Pei Huoyu asked instinctively, “What way?”

“Words only. I won’t hide it from Senior Pei. I’ve never tasted wine before. If I were to come into contact with the Spirit Sunflower Body, it would still cause a commotion. 1 think it can be confirmed.” Shen Ping silently said a few other methods in his heart.

Pei Huoyu said indifferently, “Fellow Daoist Shen is indeed quite good at this. If you can verify it tomorrow, you can use other methods to speed up the absorption of the blood of the strange beast. Perhaps your Golden Core path will be much earlier than 1 expected.”

As she spoke, she looked at Perfected Qiu, who was hosting the auction. “For most of the cultivators in the twelve countries here, the Golden Core might be the limit of their cultivation path. However, for core members, especially those who want to break through to the B-level core, the Golden Core is the real beginning.”

When Shen Ping heard this, he could not help but ask, “Senior Pei, with my Dao of Talismans, what level do I need to reach to advance to the B-rank?”

Pei Huoyu’s eyes trembled slightly before she smiled. “At the Foundation Establishment Realm, successfully cultivating the Green Talisman Sutra and creating the fourth volume of the talisman diagram only means that it’s possible. The True Treasure Pavilion is testing the Talisman Beast Scripture. What you’re currently making is a bronze beast talisman. You can only cultivate the subsequent beast talismans when you reach the headquarters. The higher the level, the more difficult this beast talisman will be.

“Although the Green Talisman Sutra I gave you is more difficult than the bronze beast talisman in the first volume, it’s mainly used to help you comprehend the Talisman Beast Scripture. When you can comprehend the third volume, it’ll be enough!”

Shen Ping was secretly speechless. Over the past few days, when he was cultivating the “Basics of Talisman Daoism”, he had occasionally comprehended the “Green Talisman Sutra”. However, with his current understanding and control of the Talisman Daoism, he could only understand the first half of the second volume. The talisman diagrams behind were very difficult.

As for the third volume, it was like reading a heavenly book.

“It’s indeed quite difficult!” He sighed, but his heart was ignited with enthusiasm. After all, he had only condensed one Life Divine Talisman. As long as he worked hard every day, he might be able to meet the requirements for a B-rank core.

“It’s very difficult. However, Fellow Daoist Shen, you don’t have to feel too much pressure. You’re a new member. It’s fine as long as you can succeed before you form your core. Moreover, even if you don’t succeed in the end, you still have a chance after the Golden Core Realm. It’s just that you need higher conditions.” Pei Huoyu comforted him.

Shen Ping nodded and asked, “Senior Pei, did any of the new cores in the True Treasure Pavilion advance to the B-rank during the first evaluation?”

“Of course.”

“What about A-rank?”

“There is.”

Shen Ping could not help but take a deep breath. It was difficult for him to reach the requirements for the B-rank core even with the Life Divine Talisman, and the difficulty of the A-rank was probably even higher. He did not expect that even so, there would be a cultivator who could successfully break through on the first try.

Pei Huoyu’s voice continued, “There has never been a lack of shocking talents in the Zhongsheng Continent. The talent and resources of such people are not something other states can compare to. Fellow Daoist Shen, you were born in the Wei Kingdom. It’s already extraordinary for you to have such talent in the Dao of Talismans, so there’s no need to be discouraged.”

As the two of them conversed telepathically, Perfected Qiu’s voice became more and more excited. “Next is the first final item of this auction, a Nascent Condensation Rare Treasure, the White Emerald Immortal Rune Ginseng!”

As soon as she finished speaking, the auction hall was boiling with excitement.

The gazes of the Golden Core and Nascent Soul cultivators gathered on a ball of light jade box floating on the platform. This atmosphere also made Shen Ping and Pei Huoyu stop their voice transmissions and look at the first final item.

The resources of the Wei Kingdom, the Jin Kingdom, and the other 12 countries were relatively scarce. Although there were also some rare spirit pills that could assist in the Nascent Soul condensation, such resources were often necessary for the various large sects to fight for. For Golden Core cultivators, they had to bid at all costs.

In a few breaths, the bidding price of the White Emerald Immortal Rune Ginseng was so high that even the Pseudo Nascent Soul realm could not withstand it. Elder Peng and Deacon Xia, who were sitting in the same private room, watched the other cultivators compete for the item calmly.

If it was in the past, they did not have such a calm state of mind. But it was different now. With a core member like Shen Ping, the precious resources transported by the True Treasure Pavilion would increase in the future. Such Nascent Condensation resources were rare in the Wei Kingdom, but they were not too rare in the Fire Toad Cave.

Until the beginning of the evening, the auction of the True Treasure Pavilion had just come to an end, and Perfected Qiu’s voice became louder and louder. Several finale items in a row caused the entire venue to boil.

The last item was actually a spiritual ancient treasure. It shocked all the cultivators. Although it was only incomplete, the Nascent Soul cultivators who came here were all desperate.

Shen Ping’s horizons were broadened. Of course, he was really just here to join in the fun. With the core jade token and identity authority, as long as it was available at the auction, he could directly apply to buy it.

Not long after, the event ended.

Shen Ping was not in a hurry to leave. Instead, he went to the second floor of the True Treasure Pavilion and used his contribution points to buy many things. Among them was the Heavenly Fire Cloud Scripture that his wife needed for cultivation, as well as the supplementary medicinal pills and dual cultivation strange items that he usually used.

Late at night, after hard work, his wife and concubines fell asleep in exhaustion. He left the small courtyard. Under Pei Huoyu’s gaze, Shen Ping walked into the living room. He saw the purple orchid palace dress. There was a burning look in his eyes. Then, he suddenly strode forward.

Looking down at Perfected Qiu, who was sitting on a chair, he exhaled hot air and said with a smile, “It’s not convenient to leave the old to welcome the new today. Can we fill the old and new together?”

Perfected Qiu’s face instantly flushed red, and her graceful eyes looked up. “Guest Elder Shen, I-I’m too petty.. I’m afraid 1 can’t take so much…”
