The exploration of the relics of Golden Jade Fairy Gate continued. Some areas were guarded by residual formations and restrictions, which were not easy to break and required time.
As Yu Ke’er had mentioned earlier, it would take seven to eight more years for the bustle of the Golden Jade Fairy Gate ruins to cease.
In fact, it might take even longer, depending on the levels of the residual formations and restrictions in the ruins.
For the opportunities within these ruins, True Man Bai Yue from Bai Yue Fairy City, Elder Tianpu, and Fairy Fengling had all left the Fairy City and yet to return.
The four continued to journey towards the Spirit Hall.
Li Pingchang said, “I’ve heard that the Golden Jade Fairy Gate is full of ancient treasures, including spiritual mountains. One such mountain is said to have many rare spiritual medicines, such as those for refining Foundation
Establishment Pills, Golden Core Pills, and even materials for refining Nascent
Soul Pills.”
“Other areas like the Scripture Mountain, Pill Mountain, and Artifact Mountain all harbor countless opportunities.”
“However, it’s a pity that these areas have mostly been sealed off by powerful forces.’
Hearing about these spiritual mountains in the Golden Jade Fairy Gate, Su Yu was stirred.
And learning about all these treasures, Su Yu momentarily felt a strong desire.
Especially for the spiritual plants that were materials for refining Foundation Establishment Pills, Golden Core Pills, and Nascent Soul Pills.
Having control of those would equate to holding power over the progression of a cultivator’s path.
They were an integral part of the core foundation of every major power.
For instance, the Sky Spirit Fruit Spirit Plant contended by the Yu Family and the Jiang Family.
But very soon,
Su Yu suppressed his greed. His Golden Cicada Spell introduced clarity in his mind: ‘almost lost myself. Being greedy is most undesirable. Being greedy without strength is seeking one’s own death.’
He should focus on self-cultivation. If his strength increased, wouldn’t those treasures come naturally?
Let alone anything else, if he could reach the peak of the Core Formation
Realm or even the Nascent Soul Realm, he could control forces like Yunjian
Sect and Bai Yue Fairy City at will. It wouldn’t be hard to obtain a few things
men.
As they conversed, Li Pingchang mentioned the Jiang Family and the Huang Family.
Li Pingchang said, “It seems the Jiang Family has found a spiritual mineral suitable for refining Formation Flags. The Huang Family is eyeing a grove of spiritual bamboo in the Golden Jade Fairy Gate. The Yu Family has apparently found a group of rare-blooded demonic beasts.”
“However, it won’t be easy for them to claim these opportunities. There are many forces venturing in the Golden Jade Fairy Gate. The final victory will depend on their strength.”
Forces such as the Yu, Jiang, and Huang families, are all larger cultivator families within the Yunjian Sect region.
Yet there are many cultivator families like these under the influence of Bai Yue Fairy City, Kaiyang Palace, Sword City Qin Family, and the Great Moon Palace.
Among the Great Moon Palace, there are even cultivator families whose forces are stronger than Yunjian Sect and Bai Yue Fairy City.
Upon arriving at the Spirit Hall,
The group managed to get a box on the second floor of the auction house. The Spirit Hall auction house was already packed with cultivators who had heard about the ancient sect’s treasures being auctioned and had rushed over.
On the second and third floors, many boxes were filled with the aura of Foundation Establishment cultivators.
Half an hour of waiting later, the auction officially began.
The first auctioned treasure was a high-grade magic artifact.
The auctioneer below enthusiastically introduced, “This is a treasure from the ancient ruins of the Golden Jade Fairy Gate, a superior-grade magic artifact called Absolute Spirit Armor. It’s refined using the rare Absolute Spirit Stone as the core material, able to resist the mana of most Foundation Establishment Realms, and even some of the Core Formation Realm. The Absolute Spirit
Armor could reduce part of it.”
“It’s definitely a top-notch defensive piece of armor and it’s in perfect condition.”
“The starting price is two thousand inferior-grade spirit stones, with each bid increment of at least a hundred inferior-grade spirit stones.”
As Su Yu looked at this piece of armor, he was delighted. This was a great item.
The armor had fairly good defensive power, and with the title of an ancient fairy sect, the auction added fuel to the fire, and the price quickly soared to three thousand six hundred inferior-grade spirit stones.
After bidding twice, Su Yu procured it for four thousand three hundred inferior-grade spirit stones.
The price was a bit high.
But if the armor was truly refined using the Absolute Spirit Stone, then it was worth it, as he might not get another opportunity.
Li Pingchang, who was sitting nearby, was astounded. Taoist Friend Su had just achieved the Foundation Establishment Realm and he lavishly spent such a huge sum to buy a superior-grade magic artifact armor? This was quite extravagant.
At least he would not have the confidence to do so.
Even whether to buy a medium-grade superior magic artifact was something he had to carefully consider.
However, it was no surprise to Yu Qianqing and Yu Ke’er. Such a great piece of armor could absolutely save lives. They’d be surprised if Su Yu wasn’t interested.
The auction continued, as a series of treasures were presented, the numerous relics from the ancient site ignited the atmosphere of the auction.
Late into the auction, ten superior-grade magic artifacts were consecutively presented, leaving the cultivators in the audience amazed.
Yu Ke’er originally hadn’t planned to auction anything, but the moment she saw a bow-shaped superior-grade magic artifact, she couldn’t take her eyes off it.
And because the bow-shaped magic artifacts were rare, and only a few cultivators utilized them,
Yu Ke’er effortlessly acquired it for three thousand five hundred inferior-grade spirit stones.
In the subsequent auctions for the superior-grade magic artifacts, Su Yu didn’t participate.
However, in another box, a Taoist puppet procured a superior-grade magic artifact, the Flood Dragon Halberd, for three thousand nine hundred inferior-grade spirit stones, when it was presented.
The Flood Dragon Halberd was not refined using flood dragon materials. But it seemed to have been tainted with the essence of a soon-to-be-transformed demonic beast, giving it a frightening ‘Flood Dragon’ aura, enabling it to intimidate demonic beasts.
It could even affect cultivators of the same rank.
This was indeed a remarkable superior-grade magic artifact.
In addition to the superior grade magic artifacts, the Taoist Puppet also auctioned some suitable materials, medium-grade materials for making second-order talismans, and materials for Foundation Establishment Pills also appeared, albeit in slightly larger quantities than usual.
The Taoist Puppet acquired an Ice Heart Lotus plant and a pure demonic beast core for two thousand eight hundred inferior-grade spirit stones.
Meanwhile, Su Yu already had three other core materials in hand, and was only short of a Sky Spirit Fruit to gather another set of Foundation Establishment Pill materials.
The Foundation Establishment Pill was auctioned towards the end. Perhaps because the Golden Jade Fairy Gate ruins had earned some powers a fortune, the auction price for a near-top-quality Foundation Establishment Pill quickly reached over nine thousand inferior-grade spirit stones.
The final successful bid was eleven thousand nine hundred inferior-grade spirit stones.
After the Foundation Establishment Pill was sold, Su Yu had the Taoist Puppet leave first. It took its auctioned items and the remaining two thousand seven hundred inferior-grade spirit stones and left the Spirit Hall right away. Under the disguise of the Invisibility Talisman and Concealment Talisman, it hid its tracks.
Eventually, it changed its appearance and returned to the inn to wait.
At the end of the auction, the item was a top-grade magic artifact, the Exquisite Flute.
Unfortunately, due to the high price of such an artifact and the fact that Bai Yue Fairy City did not have a third-order musician, it failed to sell.
After the auction ended, Su Yu and the others parted ways in Dan Tower. They went around the city and Su Yu retrieved a Qiankun bag with an Invisibility Talisman attached from a certain location, and returned to his alleyway courtyard..
