Chapter 306: Items That Can't be Understood

Translator: Noodletown Translations Editor: Noodletown Translations

– In the Taixi Faction –

The white-robed old man was still fishing leisurely by the Xishui [Meaning – Xi Water] Lake.

Today, a burly black-robed old man sat beside him.

"It's been years, and Duyou [Meaning – Lonely] Holiness still lives an idle life," the black-robed old man stroked his long beard and said with a chuckle.

The white-robed old man said with a faint smile, "Cultivation has many forms. Meditation while sitting cross-legged is cultivation, and what I do is another form of cultivation, right? I've never been idle..."

The black-robed old man laughed and changed the subject. "I heard that there is a minor situation with the Yundian Upper Realm?"

The white-robed old man said mildly, "It's no big deal. The situation will end soon."

The sunlight reflected off the lake surface, shining onto his serene and peaceful face. Suddenly, a series of urgent footsteps sounded from behind him.

"Master, we got news from the Yundian Upper Realm," the disciple reported.

"What is it?" The old man said with a faint smile, "Did they hurt each other as I predicted?"

"Hurt each other?" The black-robed old man said, "Duyou Holiness, don't you want to give them a helping hand?"

"My Taixi Faction usually doesn't interfere with worldly business," the white-robed old man said thoughtfully, "But it's time for us to make a move. When the Yundian Upper Realm comes to ask for our help, I'll loan one treasure to them..."

"They didn't hurt each other," that disciple said in embarrassment.

"They didn't hurt each other?" the old man said in surprise, "Is that force this weak?"

"No..." the disciple said, "They... they haven't done anything to each other yet!"

The black-robed old man: "..."

Duyou Holiness: "..."

"Oh?" According to his judgement, after Dajin gave the Yundian Upper Realm such a heavy blow with the support of Fang Qi's shop, the two parties would engage in a war. He wondered why nothing had happened.

"Is the information reliable?" Duyou Holiness's face turned stiff.

"I..." The disciple said haltingly, "I found the situation weird but thought that the Yundian Upper Realm needed time to prepare. I asked the spies to observe them for a few more days, but they still did nothing!

"Strange." Duyou Holiness subconsciously put aside the fishing rod and began stroking his beard in bafflement.

Taking the most conservative view, even if the Yundian Upper Realm thought that it couldn't defeat its opponent, it would have come to the Three Saint Gates to get help...

It was strange that they neither fought nor came here to get help.

"I... em... also heard some rumors..." that disciple said.

"What rumors?!"

"It's said that that shop has a poison technique called Internet Addiction," the disciple reported, "Our spies heard of it from a casual conversation."

"Once a cultivator touches it, they will get addicted and can only..."

"Only what!"

"Can only be cured by being struck by lightning!" the disciple said, "The reason that Junior Brother Feng Xi didn't contract this poison was that he was struck by lightning... It proves what the rumors said."

At a loss for words, Duyou Holiness's old eyes looked confused.

...

Half City was like a poisonous tumor to the cultivators of the Morning Star Sea Realm as a whole.

However, they had to rely on this place sometimes to get the special items that they couldn't get from other places.

"Ms. Xi, you're here again?" In the auction house, a middle-aged man who was wearing a pale golden robe was fiddling with plants. He said impatiently, "I've told you that there's no more space available for the low-level to middle-level items in the auction..."

Besides, who knows how much the so-called Magic Shield Spell Skill Book and Limitless Stick can sell for?

"Even if your father was here, the answer would be the same!"

"Executive Jin!" Xi Chenzhou walked in at this moment, and he said while his face twitched a little, "This seems off."

He was displeased that Executive Jin, who had been accepting bribes from others, showed no respect to him today.

"What seems off? How can you say that?" Jin Wu had been bribed by the Feng Family of the Morning Star Sea Realm to sell some items that they obtained illegally, and he couldn't return those items now that he already accepted the money. Also, he didn't fear Xi Chenzhou.

"I think something is off as well!" Black Demon walked up.

"Sorry, Executive Jin, but I also think that something is off." Tang Yuan walked up.

"Executive Jin, aren't you going to show any respect to my White Dragon Office?" A white-robed cultivator walked up.

"Executive Jin!" Mo Tianxing also walked up. "I'm not a stranger in the inner city. Do you want me to make a big fuss over the whole thing?"

"Executive Jin!" A Divine Ocean Realm cultivator with great presence and a rare beast symbol embroidered on his chest also walked up.

"Executive Jin!" A chilly-eyed cultivator who was wearing a blood-red robe stood out.

"Executive Jin..."

A little more than ten big forces from the outer city and several forces from the inner city, including the White Dragon Office, all walked up.

"Perhaps you should think twice before you answer us."

"Hahahaha!" Ruan Ning laughed so hard that her body shook. "Sister Xi Yue, look at that guy's face!"

Mr. Fang rolled his eyes at her. "Look at your smug face..."

"Humph!" Ruan Ning pouted and showed him her smug face even more.

Jin Wu's expression was fantastic. "What are you all doing here? Do you want to make trouble in the inner city?"

"Hurry up and register the items for us!" With so many people together, even the cultivators who usually didn't dare to make rash moves in the inner city were emboldened.

"I want to buy a Summon Godly Beast Skill Book! Do you know how expensive it is?!"

"I want to sell the Bone Jade Staff, which is an one of a kind item on the whole server. Can you bear the consequences if something happens to it?"

"Do you know how much my Ice Roar Skill Book costs?! How dare you put it in the small auction house?!"

Jin Wu was at a loss for words.

What on earth are these damn things?!

"Executive Jin, what should we do now?" A black-clothed cultivator beside him asked.

Experienced in many situations, Jin Wu soon calmed down. "You must show me your stuff so that I can estimate their value, right?"

"Show you? Easy!" Black Demon waved his hand, and a layer of golden spiritual light emitted from his body and turned into a translucent golden spiritual light sphere. It looked much more solid than the spiritual light sphere created by spiritual artifacts.

"It's a magic shield. Have you ever seen it before? Someone blocked attacks from Divine Ocean Realm cultivators with it already. Do you want to try, Executive Jin?"

"It can block the attack of a Divine Ocean Realm cultivator?"

When Xi Yue used it, this shield could only protect her from being killed by an attack from a True Lake Realm cultivator. However, in the hands of grand cultivators such as Black Demon, the shield had much greater power.

"How about the others?" Jin Wu finally began to put priorities on these items.

"Come with us, and you'll see their value!" Tang Yuan of the Yuanheng Pavilion said.

"Right! You'll understand after watching us play the Legend of Mir 2 for a few minutes!"

"Executive... What should we do with the Feng Family?" that black-clothed cultivator whispered to Jin Wu.

"Do you want me to offend so many forces in Half City?!" Executive Jin replied to this cultivator with a dark expression before saying to everyone else, "I'll go and see if your items are truly as valuable as you claim!"

Chapter 307: It doesn't sound right!

Translator: Noodletown Translations Editor: Noodletown Translations

"Executive Jin, kill this chicken first!"

"You leveled up! You leveled up!"

In the Half City Shop, a large group of players stood behind a golden-robed, middle-aged man and watched him play.

"There are such things in the world!?" As a small executive in the auction house of the inner city, Jin Wu didn't have a high opinion of the shops in the outer city.

But now, he was filled with shock and bafflement, and many thoughts flashed through his mind.

This shop had been hiding under my nose?!

After he looked down at his crude cotton clothes, he glanced at the grand-looking items of the other players in the game and saw the big difference.

"Where did you get the items that you're wearing?!" Jin Wu was envious.

Good items gave the players the abilities to kill monsters and level up faster. With good items, players could go to more dangerous places to kill more powerful monsters and get better treasures.

"Hahaha!" Wearing a Devil Robe and holding an ultimate magic stuff in his hand, Black Demon had a great sense of achievement. "These things cost me great efforts!"

"Come on! I'll show you the power of the Magic Shield Spell!"

"..."

Sometime later, Jin Wu finally understood that the Taoist's 'dogs' were like bosses, a wizard with a shield was tougher than a warrior, and Enchanting Light was a powerful spiritual spell that could enchant seven demon beasts that were on the same realm as the summoner.

[TL Note: These Chinese players call the creatures that Taoists summon 'dogs'.]

By now, Jin Wu's attitude completely changed. "Guys! Don't worry! I will not underestimate these treasures! I ensure you that they will sell for great prices!"

After all, these items could attract more than the players from this shop!

Although the Summon Godly Beast Spell might be useless to grand cultivators, it could be gifted to the geniuses in the young generation. Since a Taoist with godly beasts was unrivaled, with such a Taoist on a spiritual boat, it means that there was a mobile cannon turret!

As for the Magic Shield, although it could only block one powerful attack, it was a life-saving trump card.

The other skills had their own advantages.

Jin Wu was excited and couldn't wait for the auction to begin!

...

"Senior Sister, did you hear that two disciples went missing last night... We haven't found them yet!" Liu Ningyun was cultivating in the faction powerlessly, and the only entertainment that she got was listening to the gossip in the faction to kill time.

"Maybe the two disciples just went down the mountain for fun," Liu Ningyun said with a sweet smile, "Junior Sister, don't be so paranoid. In the past thousands of years, no thief has ever dared to come into our Nanhua Faction to mess with us!"

At this moment, Liu Ningyun suddenly heard voices from outside. "Master, I told you that Junior Sister Liu isn't a lazy disciple! Look how hard she is cultivating these days!"

"Junior Sister Liu will for sure correct her mistake. Among us, she is the most obedient and diligent one!"

"Junior Sister Liu..."

Several female disciples chirped like birds around the Xichi Spiritual Master, and the latter was a little fed up with the high praises. "Okay! That's enough!"

Although baffled, the Xichi Spiritual Master was still pleased that her disciples had finally forsaken their old grudges, and she wondered what caused the transformation and who she should thank.

Therefore, she even showed a rare smile today.

Today, she came here with another purpose. A powerful spiritual treasure appeared in Half City, and it looked like the one lost by an ancestral master of the Nanhua Faction. The Nanhua Faction planned to take it back.

Since the Nanhua Faction didn't have the intention of starting a war with Half City, the only option was to attend the grand auction in Half City.

Besides the Nanhua Faction, the Haoran Faction, Yimu Daoist Palaces, and some other big factions in the Morning Star Sea Realm had also come to Half City with different purposes.

Big families such as the Feng Family also came to Half City.

However, Half City was so big that it didn't show any congestion due to the arrival of so many outsiders; their presence only added some colors to small parts of the city.

...

The auction house in Half City was named Heaven-Hiding Pavilion, and it was the core of the whole city. There were rumors outside that said one could buy anything in the world in Half City; the rumors were talking about Heaven-Hiding Pavilion.

Despite its reputation, it was the first time that virtual items were auctioned in this place!

"What are these things?" Before the auction began, a woman with snow-white skin, brown hair, and green eyes puzzled over the list of auctioned items in her hand. "Summon Jin Wu for me!"

...

Right now, Ruan Ning was in a formal red silk dress and looked more sedate than usual.

Looking at Fang Qi who glanced around the place and mocked everything he saw, she teased him, "Guild President, is this the first time that you attended an auction?"

Xi Yue and the other girls giggled with their hands covering their mouths.

Mo Tianxing strode before them and said with a light cough, "I'll go and find the seats for our Heaven-Defying Online Games Guild."

Why are you speaking the truth? Although I have lived in this world for several years, I was broke before. Where can I find the money to participate in auctions?

With a snort, Mr. Fang instantly looked calmer. "Do I look like someone who knows nothing about grand occasions in the world? It's just that auctions in the place that I come from are different from yours."

"Guild President Fang, what do your auctions look like?" Xi Chenzhou asked.

The internet café's players almost all came to the auction in groups, and the major forces walked in together with Mr. Fang.

"Our auctions?" Mr. Fang smiled with a mysterious expression. "I'll tell you a small story about our auctions."

"You have stories about auctions?" Ruan Ning asked in doubt.

Fang Qi began telling the story, "They were auctioning an immortal egg that a Daoist found in an immortal palace in some ancient ruins. The egg was named Tea Egg."

[TL Note: Tea egg is a typical Chinese savory food commonly sold as a snack, in which a boiled egg is cracked slightly and then boiled again in tea and sauce or spices.]

"Ancient Immortal Palace?!" the girls exclaimed after hearing that.

"Tea egg?!" Xi Chenzhou frowned. "What kind of an immortal egg is that?"

Mr. Fang chuckled, "I guess you don't know the miraculous effects of tea eggs. If you are dying after being severely wounded by an enemy, eating one tea egg will immediately heal your injuries and restore your vitality. It's a magic item that can't be measured by crystals."

"So powerful?" Ruan Ning exclaimed.

"Auction begins!" Fang Qi told the story vividly as if he had been there. "That old man yelled, 'the reserve price is 10,000 ultimate crystals!'"

"At this moment, a voice came from the second floor, saying, 'I offer one bag of spicy sticks!'" Fang Qi said, "What are spicy sticks? They are ultimate godly items that were created in the chaos before the world was born. Even my shop can only copy their flavor but can't re-create their essence!"

"Really?" Doubts appeared in Xi Yue's beautiful eyes.

"Of course! Why do you think the spicy sticks in my shop are so delicious?!" Mr. Fang said confidently, "All the people looked toward the voice and saw a guy in his early twenties. They were even more shocked when they saw the logo on his Daoist robe; it was the logo of the mysterious and powerful Lanxiang Academy! And he came from the most horrifying Excavator Department..."

[TL Note: The Shandong Lanxiang Vocational School was founded in 1984, and it admits about 20,000 students per year and offers courses in subjects like cooking, auto repair, construction equipment operations (specialized in excavator), hairdressing, as well as computer skills. This school is a meme in China since they aired a lot of student recruitment commercials advertising their excavator department.]

"Do you know what kind of a school Lanxiang Academy is?"

They all shook their heads.

"It was heard that a big faction offended a student from the Excavator Department of Lanxiang Academy, and that student drove an excavator to this faction's headquarters. This faction's grand protective array was as fragile as a piece of tofu in front of this spiritual artifact, and all the members in the faction were killed! You can just imagine how frighteningly powerful the Lanxiang Excavator was! "

"Huh?" They heard Mr. Fang's vivid story and felt like they were there, but they felt like something wasn't right.

What on earth is an excavator? How come it is so powerful?!

Chapter 308: Sell the Magic Shield Skill Book First

Translator: Noodletown Translations Editor: Noodletown Translations

If the potential buyers of the skill books were not limited to the players in Fang Qi's shop, then the items were put on auction just for fun.

Of course, there might be another reason. The special and heated atmosphere of the auction house and the urging of the auctioneers might get the same group of buyers to offer higher prices than otherwise.

Fang Qi had come to the auction to experience the event and to see if there were things he needed such as Bone of a Master, Deep Ocean Black Iron, and Spiritual Marrow. He had gotten the Dragon Bone from Huangpu Tao, but the others...

If he were lucky enough to run into these things, he would certainly buy them. Otherwise, he wouldn't be able to hold the event, Battle of Sand City, even after the players had reached level 40 or 50. He wouldn't be a qualified shop owner if that happened.

After all, this was his job.

After walking through the antique-looking wooden corridor into the interior, he found that the auction hall wasn't big but was exquisitely decorated.

The guests were either masters of big forces or powerful cultivators with great backgrounds. Under the pale golden light, exquisite spiritual fruits and snacks were placed on the tables.

Fang Qi even saw some familiar faces in the auction hall, such as Liu Ningyun who had been absent from the internet café recently.

"Ugh? Senior Brother Duan!" In a nearby seat, a chubby cultivator yelled, "Look! Isn't he the guy who asked us for directions while standing on a sword?"

"It is him?!" Duan Lan coldly glanced at Fang Qi, who was exchanging greetings with acquaintances and recognized that Mr. Fang was the person who had stolen his thunder last time!

Before he could say anything, he heard chatters beside him.

"Wow! Junior Sisters! Look! Isn't he the guy who flew past us on a sword?"

"So powerful! I wonder what faction that technique belongs to!"

"One man one sword, flying across the sky! It was so dashing!"

"Senior Sister Ye! Come and look! Over there!"

With veins bulging on his forehead, Duan Lan slammed his liquor cup on the table as his lips twitched. "I couldn't find him when I tried, but I now ran into him when I wasn't looking!"

"Stop yelling! Where are your manners?!" A grey-robed, middle-aged cultivator gave them a hard look.

"Ugh... we are sorry." The girls immediately shut up.

Then, the grey-clothed cultivator stroked his beard and said, "I heard that a cultivator who flew on a sword once turned Black Dragon City upside-down and defeated the Nanhua Heavenly Fairy with a sword technique named the Godly Sword Lightning-Controlling True Spell. Its power is as great as our Haoran Faction's Heaven-Conforming Grand Sword. I wonder if the rumor is true."

"Father, the Nanhua Faction's Nanhua Heavenly Light is an ultimate technique in the world, and its power is almost the same as that of our Heaven-Conforming Grand Sword," a boy who was about 12-years-old reminded him, "If the Godly Sword Lightning-Controlling True Spell could defeat Senior Sister Liu, then it must be more powerful than our Heaven-Conforming Grand Sword; how can it be on par with..."

The grey-clothed cultivator's face twitched, and he was at a loss for words.

Around him, the disciples exclaimed, "So young and so powerful..."

"He's awesome!"

"I wonder which faction he comes from..."

"..."

Sitting at the table next to Haoran Faction was a cold-eyed young Daoist who was wearing a black-and-white Daoist robe.

"Elder Senior Brother, is that guy the mysterious cultivator who defeated Fairy Liu? He looks ordinary..."

"It's said that he even named Fairy Liu as the No.1 Cultivator of the younger generation. He's so arrogant!"

"..."

...

"Achoo!" Mr. Fang who had been chatting with Huangpu Tao sneezed. "How come I feel like everyone's watching me?"

"Today, people are here to attend the auction; who would check you out, Guild President?" Ruan Ning and the other girls obviously didn't know about Mr. Fang's reputation in the Morning Star Sea Realm outside Half City, and they looked at him in disdain.

Ruan Ning whispered, "Even if people are watching you, they must have come here to get revenge."

"I heard that Guild President even bullied Sister Liu..." Su Zhi gossiped in a low voice.

"He's so much older than her! How could he bully someone that much younger than himself!"

"Damn it..." Mr. Fang had the urge to commit some violent act. "Can't you keep your voices low?! By the way, do I look that old?"

We are all young people!

"The auction begins now!" Beside them, Mo Tianxing was feeling sympathetic toward Fang Qi. "I think Guild President is less than 200 years old; he's not too old..."

"Forget it..." Mr. Fang was a bit desperate while he thought, I'm young! Why can't you believe me?

"Let's watch the auction! Watch the auction!" Mr. Fang didn't want to explain anymore.

Under the illumination of the lights, they saw that the auctioneer was a woman who was wearing a silverfish-white long dress.

"A foreigner?" Fang Qi was surprised, but he saw that her oval face and arched eyebrows were oriental. However, her slightly curly brown hair and green, ocean-like eyes gave her an exotic aura.

With her snow-white skin, she looked elegant, charming, and mature, as if she had all the best feminine features. Her silverfish-white tight-fitting long dress accentuated her curvy figure that was perfect from all angles, heating the blood of young men like Mr. Fang.

She opened her small mouth and revealed two pointy canine teeth, which looked charming and cute. "Everyone, welcome to the auction in our Heaven-Hiding Pavilion."

"You're still staring at her!" A pair of hands waved before Mr. Fang's eyes, blocking his sight. "Your eyeballs are going to pop out."

"I was thinking about her race!" Fang Qi rolled his eyes at Ruan Ning. "I heard that devils and demons could walk in Half City during day time. She is too perfect; is she a devil?"

The room suddenly fell silent in a weird way, and the quietness was strange.

Even the grey-clothed cultivator of the Haoran Faction and the Xichi Spiritual Master of the Nanhua Faction had traces of dislike and indignation on their faces.

"Now, I'm going to introduce the first item." A silver-robed old man presented that beautiful woman a transparent bead. It seemed like this bead contained many twisted human faces. "Corpse Soul Bead..."

Fang Qi didn't even spare a glance at such a thing, and the disciples of the big factions in the Morning Star Sea Realm showed nothing but dislike and disapproval in their eyes. Only the cultivators of unorthodox factions with gloomy auras would bid for such an item. The process continued until the fifth item.

"The following treasure that we are going to auction is a bit special." The woman waved her hand, and an image of a book with a yellow cover appeared before the audience.

"Magic Shield is a very powerful defensive spiritual spell. It's said that True Lake Realm cultivators can block the full-force attacks of Divine Ocean Realm cultivators. After our Executive Jin Wu's personal testing, this spell's power is true. The starting price for it is 5,000 crystals."

"What?!"

"There's such a defensive spiritual spell in the world?!"

"How long is the casting time?"

"How effective is it for Divine Ocean Realm cultivators?"

"How long does it take to master this spell?!"

Not only the unorthodox cultivators who had bid for the items such as Corpse Soul Bead, but many cultivators of the big forces turned their attention to the skill book as well.

The Xichi Spiritual Master said in surprise, "There's such a spiritual spell in the world? The Heaven-Hiding Pavilion is full of wonders... If the price is good, I think our Nanhua Faction can buy it."

Mo Xian, who had been sipping tea, almost spat it out on someone's face. "Magic Shield?!"

Wasn't it one of the items the monsters dropped while they attacked the cities?! Why didn't I play the game?! The girl sitting next to me had picked up such a book!

Even Liu Ningyun, who was sitting next to Mo Xian, looked astonished. Last time I saw it, it was only going for 2,000. But now, the starting price is as high as 5,000?!

Chapter 309: Why can't I use it?

Translator: Noodletown Translations Editor: Noodletown Translations

Different from other cultivators who attended the auction, Mr. Fang didn't care about how to practice the Magic Shield Spell and how much it could sell for.

Instead, he picked up a spiritual fruit and stuffed it into his mouth before asking in a muffled voice while chewing, "This girl looks grand. The moment that she showed up, the room quieted down."

"Girl?"

"Grand?"

The moment he said it, Ruan Ning and the other girls around him looked toward him with weird expressions.

"What?" Fang Qi stared back at them.

"Sir..."

"Guild President..."

"I guess you didn't try to learn anything about the inner city; you don't even know the basic stuff." Ruan Ning and the others looked at him as if he was an alien.

From their viewpoint, anyone who went to a new place must get to know the forces in the area and the people that they couldn't mess with. However, Mr. Fang knew nothing about the city after being here for a while now.

"What basic knowledge?" Mr. Fang shrugged.

Ruan Ning became furious with him instantly. "Now, I'll fill you in with the basic knowledge. In the inner city of Half City, you might be okay if you offend some people, but you can never mess with five people. Four of them are the true rulers of Half City, and they are respected; they are known as the Four Kings. The fifth one is the woman standing in front of us. Even the high-level cultivators of the big factions in the Morning Star Sea Realm only dare to cuss her and call her 'Demonic Girl' in private; they don't dare to show any disrespect in front of her!"

"So..." Fang Qi asked earnestly, "She is truly a monster, right?"

"That Little Brother over there; it's not polite to ask this question." Suddenly, a charming glance turned toward him.

Fang Qi thought to himself, Such good hearing?

The woman was so charming that she could dazzle people with her smiles and frowns.

However, it seemed like she didn't pursue the topic. Instead, she continued to introduce, "It takes about half a month to two months to master this technique."

"So fast?!"

"So, it means that one can obtain an extra life-saving technique in a short time!"

All the cultivators in the room looked surprised. After all, it usually took months to years to master a powerful spiritual spell.

This Magic Shield Spell is not only powerful but also easy to master?!

The Xichi Spiritual Master asked, "Then, how long is the casting time? Does it need incantations?"

"The casting time is very short," the woman answered. "It doesn't need incantations, but the only drawback is that it has a special cultivation method."

While she said that, she glanced back at Mr. Fang meaningfully. "You need to cultivate it in a specific place in Half City."

"The starting price is so high?!" With a dark expression, Black Demon hesitated and didn't know if he should bid for it.

"5,500!" At this moment, someone bid for it.

It was a male cultivator who was hiding in a black cloak.

"6,200!"

"7,000!" That grey-clothed cultivator of the Haoran Faction joined in.

Seeing the fast-climbing prices, the internet café players who had either come here to watch or to bid for items were all dumbfounded since they found that the people who were doing most of the bidding weren't them!

After all, in their minds. a Magic Shield Spell Skill Book was only about 5,000. If they were lucky, they might get one in the game one day.

However, for other cultivators, this simple and powerful spiritual spell deserved a high price tag, and they were willing to spend time to master it.

The price of the first Magic Shield Spell Skill Book grew sharply.

"10,000!" the Xichi Spiritual Master snorted. Obviously, she was determined to get it.

"11,000!" The cultivators sitting at a table near Fang Qi all had gloomy auras, and the person who spoke was the oldest one among them.

"Feng Family!" Sitting next to Fang Qi, Mo Tianxing said with a cold expression.

"12,000!" Xichi Spiritual Master continued bidding; she didn't frown and wasn't a bit bothered by the high price.

"Since the Xichi Spiritual Master is determined to get this Magic Shield Spell, I give up on bidding!" the gloomy cultivator of the Feng Family said in a deep voice.

Soon, the Xichi Spiritual Master bought the first Magic Shield Spell Skill Book.

Sitting beside her, her disciples such as Mo Xian and Liu Ningyun were at a loss for words.

Should I take Master to level up? Liu Ningyun was torn inside since her own level wasn't that high!

Should I play this game too? Mo Xian had tears on her face. But the skill books are so expensive...

Then, the second Magic Shield Spell Skill Book was put on auction, and the bidding war was fiercer than the first one. In the end, a golden-clothed cultivator bought it for 18,000 crystals.

"A cultivator from the inner city!" Xi Yue said in a low voice.

Since the inner city was the administration of the entirety of Half City, this cultivator must have a high status.

"The next item..." The woman smiled, and the image of a long stick appeared before her.

"What's this treasure?"

"I've never seen it before?"

"What's it for?"

"Limitless Stick!" The Taoist players who were in the auction exclaimed. Right now, the Limitless Stick was the best weapon for Taoists before the Dragon Mark Sword appeared.

"Limitless Stick. Damage: 8-16; Daoist Spell: 3-5." The woman obviously had learned a lot of gaming knowledge, and her introduction sounded quite professional. "This stick was made with a branch of the World Tree and Five Elemental Godly Water. It is a virtual item in a fantasy world. Due to its special function, the starting price is 3,000 crystals!"

"Special function?"

"Fantasy world?"

"What is it?!"

"3,500!" Iron Rock Daoist, one of the guardians of the Huang Family, began bidding.

"4,000!" Yu Cangshan, the chubby old man who sat with Mo Tianxing, opened his mouth and made an offer.

"5,000!" The middle-aged cultivator of the Feng Family snorted and joined in.

"Do you even know what this thing is for?!" Yu Cangshan was angry. "What can you do with it?!"

"I'm rich, and I just want to buy it for fun!"

"6,000!" This came from Xue Shuilong of White Dragon Office, the Taoist whom Fang Qi had once killed.

"What's this thing? Why are so many people fight for it?" The grey-clothed cultivator of the Haoran Faction was suspicious. "Fantasy world? Is it a secret realm that we don't know about?! I offer 7,000!"

"Master..." The cold-eyed young Daoist who was wearing the black-and-white Daoist robe said, "Should we..."

"Let's observe them first," the grey-haired cultivator, who was sitting next to him, said. "If necessary, we can bid for it!"

"8,000!" The Xichi Spiritual Master placed the bid already.

"Master..." Liu Ningyun couldn't help but say, "You have a skill book for wizards now. Why do you want to buy this one?"

"So many people are fighting for it; it must be a rare treasure," the Xichi Spiritual Master said with a snort, "Yun'er, if the price is good, I will buy it!"

Mo Xian couldn't bear it anymore. "Master, this is a weapon for a Taoist; you can't use it..."

"Why can't I use a weapon for a Taoist?!" the Xichi Spiritual Master said in a cold voice, "I have practiced Daoism for many years and had joined the Nanhua Faction, a Daoist faction! Why can't I use it!"

Liu Ningyun: "..."

Mo Xian: "..."

Chapter 310: The Last Item in the Auction

Translator: Noodletown Translations Editor: Noodletown Translations

When the price increased to 8,000, the bidding slowed down, and even Xue Shuilong, who had kept bidding for it without hesitation, thought for a while before placing a bid of 8,300.

For others, this was a treasure that they didn't quite understand the function of. It meant that this price was very close to their limits as well.

The cultivator of the Feng Family increased the bid to 8,500 tentatively.

The price increment for the Limitless Stick was no less than 200 crystals. After placing the bid of 8,700, Xue Shuilong said, "Daoist Brother Feng, if you buy the Limitless Stick, you can't use it right now. If you still want to bid for it, then I'll give it up."

"Since Daoist Brother Xue wants this treasure, I won't take it from you forcefully," the cultivator of the Feng Family gave him a fake smile and said. "It's yours, Daoist Brother Xue!"

Finally, Xue Shuilong bought the Limitless Stick for 8,700 crystals.

"Demon-Trapping Curse. It's very effective against filthy and evil entities. One can draw a circle around an evil entity, and the latter will be confused by the curse and won't be able to see the outside world."

Another small yellow book appeared before the woman. "Although it's not very useful in battle as a spiritual spell, it can help you a lot when you're surrounded by evil entities!"

"As with the Magic Shield Spell, this curse has a special cultivation method."

"The starting price is 1,000 crystals."

Obviously, many people wanted to bid for the unknown treasures. Compared to these novelties, the other treasures were less attractive.

Many people turned their focus to these weird but powerful novel items!

Fortunately, the cultivators wouldn't be so crazy as to fight for warriors' skill books. After bidding against the few warriors in the auction hall, Fang Qi bought the Flame Sword Technique Skill Books for 5,000 crystals.

By now, the people in the auction hall had gotten even more enthusiastic and heated.

"The next item is Ice Roar!"

Since the guests in the auction were mostly wizards and taoists, when the name 'Ice Roar' came out, the whole auction hall was filled with excited talks, and all the wizards turned their eager eyes toward the book which contained the ultimate technique for this profession!

"This spiritual spell can swiftly condense snow and create an ice storm to attack enemies. It can condense wind and snow in one area and form a tornado of countless icicles. No one can dodge the bone-chilling ice spikes!" The woman's voice rose while she explained, "This spiritual spell doesn't need any chants. No other simple spiritual spells can match this one. Its power is estimated to be no less than that of a middle-sized AoE spiritual spell!"

"The starting price is 8,000, and the smallest price increment is 500!"

"10,000!" Before she finished, Black Demon already yelled.

"12,000!" Xichi yelled immediately.

How come Master began bidding again. Sitting next to her, Mo Xian had a bitter expression on her face.

"It's a level 35 skill. When can she learn it..." Liu Ningyun was considering if she should stop the Xichi Spiritual Master.

"Dad... Should we..." Before that boy who was about 12 to 13 years old of the Haoran Faction could finish his sentence, the grey-clothed cultivator sitting next to him had stood up. "15,000!"

"16,000!" Tang Yuan of the Yuanheng Pavilion yelled immediately!

Obviously, almost no one had ever seen anyone use this ultimate skill of wizards, which meant that anyone who got this Ice Roar Skill Book would be the No. 1 Wizard!

"20,000!" Xi Chenzhou was unwilling to admit defeat.

"25,000!" The wizard who was wearing a moon-white robe said with a wicked expression. "The throne of the No. 1 Wizard belongs to me, Zhuge Bai!"

"No.1 Wizard?"

"What's that?!"

All the cultivators looked at each other in bafflement.

At the table of the Feng Family, the gloomy-faced middle-aged cultivator asked, "Do you know what they are talking about?"

The others at the table all shook their heads.

"Strange..." The cultivator of the Feng Family had a doubtful look on his face. "However powerful this spiritual spell is, what does it have to do with being No. 1? I wonder what secrets this city has that I don't know about."

The exorbitant price of 25,000 crystals went beyond the price limit of some of the cultivators who didn't know what was happening. In the end, the Ice Roar Skill Book went to Zhuge Bai.

Then, the image on display turned into a slim and long staff in the shape of a beast bone. "As for the next three items on auction, I believe many of you know their values."

"Bone Jade Staff! Magic: 2-6; Damage: 6-12. It's a legendary godly weapon from a fantasy world," the woman said, "This item was made from a bone of a devil dragon and possesses great spiritual energy. Although it's my first time auctioning such a treasure, I believe many people here know its value! The starting price is 20,000 with increments of 1,000!"

"30,000!" At the first bid, Black Demon added 10,000!

"35,000!" The cultivator of the Feng Family joined in the bidding again.

"40,000!" These precious items from a 'fantasy world' had drawn the Xichi Spiritual Master's attention. Since she would go and see the fantasy world sooner or later, she figured that she might as well get prepared and buy a few more treasures.

Of course, her disciples were now desperate.

Liu Ningyun thought, No... I can't stop Master at all...

Mo Xian felt desperate. Anyone, please come and outbid Master...

As if heaven heard her prayer, Tang Yuan of the Yuanheng Pavilion yelled, "45,000!"

"50,000!" Haoran Faction couldn't remain silent anymore.

"60,000!" Zhuge Bai of the White Dragon Office gritted his teeth and added 10,000!

At the level of 60,000 crystals, many bidders began to hesitate.

After all, it was a virtual item, and its use was indirect since it couldn't be used in the real world. The virtual items could help them kill other players and obtain treasures in the game with great efficiency, but they couldn't increase people's strength as directly and quickly as the skill books did.

At this moment, only the Yuanheng Pavilion increased the price by 1,000 crystals.

The golden-robed cultivator who bought a Magic Shield Spell Skill Book increased the price by another 1,000 crystals.

Finally, the Yuanheng Pavilion increased the price by another 1,000, making the offered price as high as 63,000. Then, no one else placed a higher bid. In the end, the first Bone Jade Staff of the server went to Yuanheng Pavilion!

Then, the second Summon Godly Beast Skill Book was bought by Xue Shuilong of the White Dragon Office for 70,000!

Finally, they came to the last virtual item from the Legend of Mir 2 – Enchanting Light.

"The next item probably is the best one in this auction since I'm also tempted by it," the woman said with a chuckle.

"Next, we'll ask Ms. Xi Yue of Coil Dragon Office to assist me with a small experiment." At her order, some cultivators pushed a huge iron cage into the hall. In the cage was a huge one-meter-long eagle whose plumage emitted a metallic luster!

This huge eagle was untamed, and it looked ferocious even in the cage.

On the other side, Xi Yue walked up, and a big black vulture that was as tall as a meter flew up, rubbing its head against her hair endearingly.

"This huge eagle is an Iron Feather Eagle that our Heaven-Hiding Pavilion transported from the Beast Field for this auction. Its strength is equivalent to that of an early stage True Lake Realm cultivator," the woman introduced, "However, the vulture beside Ms. Xi Yue only has the strength of a middle stage Spiritual River Realm cultivator."

With a charming smile, she asked, "Can you guess what will happen if the two demon beasts fight each other?"

"What else can happen? How can a Spiritual River Realm demon beast block the attacks from a True Lake Realm demon beast?"

"Do you have a spiritual spell like the Magic Shield Spell that can help the Spiritual River Realm demon beast block the attack of the True Lake Realm demon beast?!"

With a faint smile, the woman opened the door of the iron cage and removed the restraining spell on it.

At this moment, the vulture flew over and landed before the iron cage.

With a hoarse shriek, the huge Iron Feather Eagle viciously charged toward the Spiritual River Realm black vulture!

However, in the next instant, the black vulture's aura shot up, and its black feathers almost stood on end. It slammed out its right wing!

Boom!

It slammed down viciously as if a huge prehistoric beast clawed down.

The huge Iron Feather Eagle had no time to dodge, and its whole body seemed to have been crushed by a locomotive! Its iron-like feathers shattered, and blood oozed from its nose and head. Falling to the floor, it twitched a few times and then turned motionless!

"Impossible!"

Seeing this scene, the cultivators all stood up uncontrollably and roared in their heads.
