Longevity: Starting from the Qi Tags - Chapter 448

Chapter 448: Chapter 294: The miraculous things of the world that can produce new innate qi movement. (Add 40 for the Silver Alliance!)
 

Jiang Yuan immediately set his sights on the Heart of Wood, a treasure he was determined to acquire.

Then he continued to browse downwards.

After a while, a delighted expression spread across Jiang Yuan’s face.

It was actually the Great Sun Gold Flame.

The Great Sun Gold Flame is a type of mineral found inside the core of stars, formed from pure flames.

This item is extremely valuable and represents the top-tier natural element of fire among earth, wind, water, and fire.

It can be used to open up the Southern Dao Palace and nurture the Vermilion Bird Spirit from the Four Pre-Heaven Spirits.

For ordinary people, obtaining the Great Sun Gold Flame is extremely difficult.

It requires the exploration of extra-territorial stars to find an appropriate star body, ignite it with the power of the Solar Great Dao, causing it to burn madly, only then can this top-tier natural element be harvested.

Igniting an appropriate star body, causing it to burn with fervor, will yield many valuable minerals.

A mineral like the Great Sun Gold Flame, which is condensed from pure flames, is just one of them.

To step into the extra-territorial stars, as far as Jiang Yuan knows, only individuals with great abilities owning a complete cave world could do so.

They possess a complete cave world of their own, which allows them to traverse the universe freely.

Therefore, this item is extremely valuable, even surpassing the value of the Heart of Wood by a fair bit.

Nevertheless, Jiang Yuan was determined to acquire it since it was of utmost importance to him.

Then, he muttered to himself inwardly.

It’s a bit regrettable that there’s only one Great Sun Gold Flame.

I can only choose one of the two now.

Either it will be used to open the physical secret realm of the heart,

Or it will be reserved until the Ninth Level of the Dharma Image Realm is fully attained, to open the Southern Dao Palace.

Then, he continued to scroll downwards.

He scrolled further and further down the screen.

Suddenly, his body jolted slightly.

“Junior Brother, what happened?”

Yun Muyao asked in surprise.

Jiang Yuan exhaled a sigh of turbidity, gradually revealing a smile.

“I discovered something.”

“What was it?”

Yun Muyao immediately poked her head from over Jiang Yuan’s shoulder out of curiosity, looking at the crystal screen in his hands.

She immediately spotted the item that appeared on the crystal screen in Jiang Yuan’s hand and softly pronounced the words.

“True Thunder Tribulation Seed!”

Then, she curled her lips dismissively. “What’s so useful about this thing anyway!”

“Just because it sounds formidable, can it really control thunder tribulation with it?”

“I know about this item too. Although it can give you a decent physique, it’s limited to that!”

“If you were in the Divine Bridge Realm, it would be useful. For you, who is at this cultivation realm, controlling the Thunder law and gaining the affinity of the Thunderbolt, wouldn’t be of much use!”

Jiang Yuan slowly unveiled a smile. “Senior Sister, you don’t understand!”

Upon seeing this auction item, Jiang Yuan knew that it would be his greatest gain on this trip!

It was so worth it for him to come this time!

He had learned before that such miraculous resources, capable of altering one’s destiny and condensing new pre-Heavens qi movement, are few and far between.

Like resources that strengthen qi and blood making it more robust than the average person won’t work for him.

Due to his Human Emperor bloodline, it directly overrides all lower-level qi movements.

Resources that enhance the divine soul, he has already taken a Soul Condensation Tear, so all of these resources are useless for him.

In relation to the five elements, he now possesses the Five Elements Holy Body, which is even more redundant.

Thus, what’s useful to him is not much.

This designated True Thunder Tribulation Seed is one of these miraculous resources that is still effective for him, allowing him to alter his destiny, and obtain a certain pre-Heaven qi movement.

Indeed, as Yun Muyao mentioned, this item isn’t that useful to individuals with a higher cultivation realm.

According to his presumption, this item at most can give birth to a blue-tier pre-Heaven qi movement.

However, he is different. Any pre-Heaven qi movement, regardless of its tier, can be elevated by him to gold or even beyond.

The enhancement of pre-Heaven qi movement is the foundation of all his achievements thus far.

Without those strong pre-Heaven qi movements, despite having frightening talents, he couldn’t have reached this far no matter how hard he tried.

This is the cornerstone of everything.

And from the two words ‘Thunder Tribulation’, he derived many associations.

If he gives the upcoming pre-Heaven qi movement an unlimited upgrade, he might be able to control the real Thunder Tribulation.

If he can control the Thunder Tribulation, it would be of extreme help to him.

Since the ancient times, the Heaven-earth origin had depleted, and the Thunder Tribulation disappeared overnight.

No matter what realm is broken through, there will no longer be the coming of Thunder Tribulation.

Originally in the times of antiquity, breakthroughs above the Divine Bridge Realm would all attract multiple challenges in the Heaven Tribulation.

Under the engulfing Heaven Tribulation, five or six out of ten would depart.

But Heaven Tribulation, while it is a test, is also a gift.

Without the gift from Heaven Tribulation, the path of cultivation is incomplete.

This leads to the path to the Human realm to become more and more difficult.

However, this problem, Jiang Yuan saw a glimmer of hope in this seemingly ordinary True Thunder Tribulation Seed.

The hope that would potentially make his Dao path more perfect in the future.

Yun Muyao rested her chin on Jiang Yuan’s shoulder.

“Junior Brother, haven’t you finished yet?”

“Not yet, Senior Sister. Please wait a bit more!”

Jiang Yuan replied without looking back.

Having found three items of great help to him, Jiang Yuan, filled with enthusiasm, continued scrolling down.

After a while, Jiang Yuan suddenly felt a wet sensation on his earlobe.

“Senior Sister, why are you licking my ear?”

“Strange, the books say that when a woman’s earlobe is lightly licked, she will feel weak all over, as if electrically shocked, why doesn’t Junior Brother feel anything?”

Yun Muyao curiously said.

Jiang Yuan: “…”

Then he sighed slightly: “Senior Sister, you should read less of those kinds of books in the future, they’re not healthy!”

“No way, I find it very interesting!”

Jiang Yuan then felt a wet sensation on his earlobe again.

“Stop messing around, Senior Sister!” Jiang Yuan casually said.

“Really, no feeling at all?”

Yun Muyao voiced her disappointment.

Jiang Yuan slowly moved the crystal screen in his hand to the bottom.

Only after he had seen the last item did he put down the crystal screen in his hand.

“Junior Brother, have you finished?”

Jiang Yuan gave a slight nod, “All done! There are three items I want to bid on later, a pretty good harvest!”

He revealed a faint smile on his face.

Then he said, “Senior Sister, don’t you want to take a look? Perhaps there might be something you need?”

Yun Muyao shook her head: “There’s no need for me to look at auctions of this level.”

“Only at the annual large-scale auction, might there be some unusual things that would be useful to me!”

“Indeed!” Jiang Yuan nodded, “Senior Sister, you hold the position of the Holy Daughter!”

At this time, Yun Muyao was already lying on the soft couch.

Her fair feet shot out from under her long skirt, resting on Jiang Yuan’s thigh.

“Junior Brother, can you massage my feet for me?”

She suddenly asked again, “Hey, what’s this?”

“Hiss!” Jiang Yuan took a sharp intake of breath, hurriedly grabbing her fidgeting feet with one hand.

He glared at her, “Stop moving around!”

Yun Muyao seemed to realize something in that instant, a blush creeping onto her face.

“Oh, oh!”

She lowered her head shyly.

Just then, the sound of the start of the auction came from below.

“Junior Brother, the auction has started!” She hurriedly changed the topic.

Jiang Yuan nodded with a happy look, “The tenth item is what I want to bid for. Getting this item will allow me to split open the first secret realm in the human body and nurture the Five Viscera Gods.”

At this time, the first item for auction had already started.

Jiang Yuan immediately became interested, because the first auction item was something he put up for sale, a medium-grade spiritual treasure.

It was a golden shuttle, a medium-grade spiritual treasure controlled by divine sense.

Fused with the rules of space, this treasure can kill its victims unpredictably, making it hard to defend against!

There were also many people below who were interested in this item, and the bids were coming fast and furious.

In Tianhe City, unlike the previous anonymous auctions, everyone was openly bidding.

The price quickly rose from 300 spiritual stones to 450.

“I’ll bid 500, other Daoist Friends please show some respect, this price is very sincere! Anything more is not worth it!”

Someone voiced out.

Faced with the bidding price of 500 top-quality spiritual stones, a single increase of 50 top-quality spiritual stones, the crowd began to hesitate.

For a moment, the venue was filled with hushed whispers, with no one else bidding.

Just as the person thought he was going to secure the item…

Another person spoke, “I bid 520, I also like this item, and it suits me very well!”

“If Daoist Brother can offer a higher price, then by all means, take it!”

The person who made the previous bid gritted his teeth. Thinking about how this item would be enough to accompany him through the Venerable Realm, and how it was highly suitable and a great transitional spiritual treasure for him.

Even if he sold it later, he wouldn’t be at a loss. So, he spoke again, “530! This is my final bid. If you want to take it, please do so!”

“Daoist Brother is generous, I concede!”

The person who previously made a bid courteously gestured, and slowly sat down.

As soon as this price was offered, the bidding quickly ceased.

After a few moments, the sound of the gong rang out three times.

Mo Lin, who was hosting the auction, once again spoke, “530 top-quality spiritual stones, sold! May the winner please proceed backstage to conclude the transaction!”

Jiang Yuan smiled upon hearing this.

Good!

He nodded appreciatively.

This price was higher than he expected.

However, it was in the range of 500, which showed that Mo Lin’s estimation was quite accurate.

With the sale of this item, Jiang Yuan realized how small Qianyuan Kingdom was.

The top-tier sect, Sunset Sect.

All the wealth of the sect combined was equivalent to one mid-grade spiritual treasure.

This gap was so enormous, it was mind-boggling.

No wonder Qianyuan Kingdom couldn’t produce many powerful cultivators in the Dharma Image Realm.

Both wealth and resources are incredibly important in the journey of cultivation.

Compared to the sects here, Qianyuan Kingdom’s sects lack wealth, resources, companions, and lands.

How could they possibly grow?

While he was contemplating these thoughts,

The second auction item soon began.

Also another medium-grade spiritual treasure from Jiang Yuan.

After paying attention to the first auction item, Jiang Yuan wasn’t closely following the proceedings anymore.

After all, it wouldn’t likely be too different, he was just waiting to collect the money.

“Senior Sister?” Jiang Yuan said.

“Wh.. What is it?” Yun Muyao softly spoke.

Jiang Yuan turned his head back and saw that Yun Muyao’s face was flushed with embarrassment.

Lowering his head, he realized that he was the cause of her embarrassment.

After grabbing her feet just now, he had been absentmindedly massaging them.

He smiled wryly.

The touch was quite nice actually.

Smooth as jade, soft and delicate.

For a moment, the room was silent, with only the ongoing auction bidding outside the window.

After a long while.

“Now the item for auction is the Heart of Wood. It’s an offspring heart of a branch cultivated during ancient times. It has extremely high value.”

“Starting price is 500 top-quality spiritual stones, and each increase must not be less than 10.”

Here it is!

Jiang Yuan was elated.

He quietly waited for the bidding below.

After more than a dozen breaths, the price went up to 700 top-quality spiritual stones.

The bidding soon slowed down, fewer people were raising their bids, and the increase in price also slowed.

Jiang Yuan let go of Yun Muyao’s feet that he was holding, and entered the number 800 on the crystal screen in front of him.

The bids from the VIP room would be placed by the auctioneer, so he didn’t need to speak himself.

“Junior Brother, continue!” Yun Muyao whined.

“Senior Sister, wait a moment, I’m bidding for something!”

Jiang Yuan quietly awaited the response from below.

At this time, Mo Lin started to speak, “A VIP has bid 800, is there anyone who wishes to bid higher?”

Suddenly, the hall was silent. After a few breaths…

“800 for the first time!” A deep gong rang out.

“800 for the second time!” The deep gong rang again.

“800 for the third time, sold for 800!”

With the sounding of the third gong, signified the end of this auction!

Jiang Yuan felt a burst of joy, “That’s good!”

The price of 800 was completely acceptable, it was only the equivalent of one and a half middle-grade spiritual treasures!

He couldn’t help but smile with satisfaction.

He continued to play with Yun Muyao’s foot with his palm.
