“Audacious! Who do you think you are? You think you’re worthy of asking Xiao Cao out for dinner?” yelled the handsome man after stepping forward.
The expression of the frail man turned unsightly when he heard this. He immediately sneered, “I am the young master of the Sima Clan. I am Sima Shenxu. That Xiao Cao is merely a whore. Even as a whore, she’s acting like she’s some high class product, standing on the auction stage. I reckon she will climb into the bed of some young master after she steps off the auction stage. I had only offered 310,000 Stabilizing Pills to give her face. You think she’s really that valuable?”
“You’re courting death!” The handsome man’s face turned frosty. He waved his hand out, his fingers assuming the form of a claw. Immediately, an energy palm appeared out of thin air and wrapped around Sima Shenxu’s neck before raising him up into the air.
“I don’t care which clan’s young master you are, but Xiao Cao is the chief auctioneer of our Qi Clan. She is also the adopted daughter of our clan leader. You dare act so brazenly with that trash clan of yours?”
Qi Clan was the publicly acknowledged number one clan in Tianwu Kingdom. Moreover, the young lady of Qi Clan was the imperial concubine of Tianwu Kingdom. Any clan would have to give them some face, let alone a second-rate clan at Ancient Martial City.
The higher-ups of Sima Clan in the VIP seats were about to make a move before suddenly stopping.
“What? Chief auctioneer and the adopted daughter of Qi Clan leader?” Fright crept on Sima Shenxu’s face when he heard that. These words were sufficient to show how noble Xiao Cao’s status was. She was comparable to a princess of the kingdom.
“Brother Zhan Jun, let him go.” Xiao Cao still had the same smile on her face, making it hard for people to guess what she was thinking.
“Hmph!” Zhan Jun waved his hand and tossed Sima Shenxu aside. Sima Shenxu flew away and crashed on the ground. He crawled back up on his feet, his body hurting all over. Instead of leaving, he followed an employee away to finalize the transaction.
“Everyone, we apologize for the unexpected interruption. Now, we will continue with the auction. The second item is a seal called the Seven Treasures Exquisite Pagoda Seal. After activating the seal, a huge Seven Treasures Exquisite Pagoda will appear in the air. This pagoda is able to easily suppress an Energy Shaping Seventh Realm warrior,” explained Xiao Cao as she took out a seal from her Dimensional Bracelet. The seal was about one inch long, and a small golden pagoda with seven floors was etched on it.
All the warriors in the hall were astonished when they heard the explanation. A seal capable of easily suppressing an Energy Shaping Seventh Realm warrior was very rare.
“This seal originated from a grandmaster from Heaven’s Wall City. However, it is not my place to reveal the name of this grandmaster. The starting price for this seal is 50,000 Stabilizing Pills.” With the appearance of this Seven Treasures Exquisite Pagoda Seal, the excitement in the hall surged once again
“Even I am attracted to this seal capable of suppressing an Energy Shaping Seventh Realm warrior.” Hu Batian stared straight at the seal, his heart aching to place a bad.
“Hehe, with the wealth of your clan, it won’t be an issue to buy that seal. But I think this seal will probably reach 150,000 Stabilizing Pills. It’s not worth it,” Ye Mo said with a smile.
“The rarer something is, the greater its value. Isn’t that the basis of an auction hall’s operation?” Hu Bahu replied.
“That Seven Treasures Exquisite Pagoda Seal is nothing. I can refine one myself,” Ye Mo said.
“What? You can refine this seal as well?” Hu Batian and Hu Bahu were greatly alarmed. A seal capable of hurting Energy Shaping Seventh Realm warriors was not something regular sealing artists could refine.
“Don’t you know that I had just became the honorary sealing artist of Xuan Ji Sub-League?” Ye Mo said with an indifferent smile.
They had heard of Ye Mo registering to take part in the selection of honorary sealing artist for Xuan Ji Sub-League. But they did not know the result of it. When they heard what Ye Mo said, they both stared at Ye Mo in astonishment, their faces filled with disbelief.
“Freak!” cried they both inwardly. This Ye Mo had such a terrifying talent in cultivation, and now, even his sealing skills were terrifying. If they could rope him into their circle, it would greatly help in the development of their clan.
“If you want it, we can trade,” Ye Mo nonchalantly said.
“What are the terms of this trade?” Hu Batian asked as he was attracted by the offer.
“One second rank dark attribute heart-stone for one Seven Treasures Exquisite Pagoda Seal. How about that?” Ye Mo offered.
“Heart-stone for seal?” Hu Batian was first startled before he asked, “Ye Mo, although dark attribute heart-stones are rare, you are obviously the one making a huge loss trading seals for heart-stones. How about this, the metal attribute heart-stones you need for the seal refinement will be supplied by us as well. One second rank dark attribute heart-stone and one second rank metal attribute heart-stone for one Seven Treasures Exquisite Pagoda Seal. How’s that?”
“Deal!” Ye Mo declared with a snap. Just like that, they reached an agreement. While Hu Batian and Ye Mo were talking, the Seven Treasures Exquisite Pagoda Seal was bought by an Energy Shaping Seventh Realm warrior at the price of 100,000 Stabilizing Pills.
A second rank metal attribute heart-stone was equivalent to 10,000 Stabilizing Pills, and after refining it into a Seven Treasures Exquisite Pagoda Seal, the seal was sold for 100,000 Stabilizing Pills. This was a tenfold increase in profit, evidence of how profitable it was to be a sealing artist.
“The first two items have been sold. I want to take this opportunity to thank everyone for your support. I trust that everyone is looking forward to the third item.”
Xiao Cao still had the same smile on her face. She did not keep them waiting for long and immediately declared, “The third item is information regarding the Transcendence Golden Body.”
This single declaration was akin to the setting off of a bomb. This was especially true for True Energy Realm warriors. All of them were shocked. What was the Transcendence Golden Body? Any warrior with any amount of accomplishment in cultivation would know something about the Transcendence Golden Body.
If a Spirit Devour Realm warrior wanted to breakthrough into the Transcendence Realm, there were two methods. The first method was by relying on their great talent and cultivating a Transcendence Golden Body by themselves. The second method was to refine a Transcendence Golden Body for themselves.
The latter was much easier than the former. The Transcendence Golden Body was something all Transcendence Realm warriors would leave behind after their death. One reason why the number of Transcendence Realm warriors in Tianwu Kingdom was declining was because the emperor had gathered many of the Transcendence Golden Bodies that were left by deceased Transcendence Realm warriors. Because of that, many Spirit Devour Realm warriors remained stuck at their current level, unable to breakthrough.
One could say that each Transcendence Golden Body was the equivalent of a Transcendence Realm powerhouse. Information regarding a Transcendence Golden Body would be sufficient to drive even Spirit Devour Realm warriors mad. However, it was clear that there were no Spirit Devour Realm warriors here. However, some of the clans and sects present had Spirit Devour Realm ancestors.
Since Qi Clan was willing to put this piece of intelligence up for sale, there was definitely a catch that came with it. The intelligence might even be fake information.
“I don’t believe I need to explain the usage of a Transcendence Golden Body, do I? The document I’m about to present is in fact a ruined map. This map is only half the original map, and based on the description on the map, this Transcendence Golden Body was left behind by the number one genius of Tianwu Kingdom 20 years ago. This genius was Ye Qing, and this Transcendence Golden Body is the Hellfire Wargod Transcendence Body,” Xiao Cao explained.
Once again, her words created an uproar. Although they did not know what the Hellfire Wargod Transcendence Body was, Ye Qing was the legend of Tianwu Kingdom. Would the Transcendence Golden Body of a legend be weak?
“Father’s Transcendence Golden Body?” Ye Mo narrowed his eyes. “I need to regain everything that once belonged to father. Although this map is ruined, I still need to get my hands on it!”
