Sect: Starting with Comprehending Thunder Skill-Chapter 913 - 431: Reforging the Myriad Poison Banner
In these three days, several rare items have appeared, but neither Li Yunjing nor Zhao Qi has made a move.
Ordinary treasures do not catch the eye of Li Yunjing or Zhao Qi.
Those that do have Golden Core Realm or Nascent Soul Realm cultivators competing for them.
As a result, in three days, they have only snagged a "White Jade Ginseng"!
On the fourth day, Li Yunjing and Zhao Qi sat in their private box, looking calmly at the intense bidding in the hall.
The cultivators are turning red-faced as they fiercely compete over rare treasures, with a hint of gunpowder in the air.
"These people are really risking their lives!"
Zhao Qi said softly, her voice tinged with a hint of admiration.
"There's no choice!"
Li Yunjing smiled slightly, his gaze sweeping over the desperate cultivators in the hall, calmly saying, "The things one needs are rare, and when an opportunity arises, if you don't fight for it, the next time it appears, these cultivators may not live long enough to see it."
"Indeed!"
Zhao Qi nodded, the Immortal Cultivation Realm is like this; opportunities come, and if you don't seize them, they are gone.
In a lifetime, there are just so few chances.
If every opportunity comes and cannot be seized, then it's all over.
A cultivator's lifespan is longer than a mortal's, but there comes a time when their lifespan is exhausted.
Much like those cultivators in the auction, the treasures they covet could enhance their cultivation, breakthrough realms, and extend their lives.
If you win the bid, you have a future.
If you don't, returning afterward may mean you never encounter such an item again.
That is akin to awaiting death.
"Are you going to act next?"
Zhao Qi asked softly.
"Wait!"
Li Yunjing said slowly, his gaze deep as he looked at the screen, "The true treasures have not appeared, if possible, I will make another move!"
Zhao Qi said no more, merely nodded gently.
Until the fourth evening, the middle-aged auctioneer suddenly brought out an ordinary-looking wooden box.
The box was carved with ancient runes, exuding a faint mysterious aura. 𝙛𝒓𝓮𝙚𝔀𝒆𝒃𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝓵.𝙘𝒐𝒎
"Everyone, the next treasure has an unknown origin but has been appraised by our Auction House, this item is very likely an ancient secret treasure left behind!"
The voice of the middle-aged auctioneer carried a hint of excitement.
"Wow..."
"Ancient secret treasure?"
"What's inside the box?"
"Which era is it from?"
The hall was instantly buzzing, everyone's eyes fixed on the wooden box.
With the flourishing of the Immortal Cultivation Realm, cultivators have grown increasingly interested in the unknown years from millions of years ago.
In the Immortal Cultivation Realm, there's even a group of people like this.
They are almost unknown to the world, not fighting for famous mountains and rivers, nor rivaling cultivators for fame and fortune, but hidden in the dark corners of the Immortal Cultivation Realm, exploring everything that once was.
Discovering history, excavating ruins, searching for traces of the past is their pursuit.
This group of people is not weak, with individuals capable of earth-shattering feats.
They have benefited greatly from the process of excavation.
Even treasures from the underground, ancient secret realms, top-tier ancient treasures, legendary secret techniques...
All these have greatly benefited this group.
Li Yunjing had obtained ancient treasures before and knew the power of such things.
He, like others, was curious about what kind of powerful item the Four Seas Commerce Association had brought out.
"Please have a look, everyone!"
The middle-aged auctioneer slowly opened the wooden box, revealing an ancient jade pendant inside.
This is a "Dragon and Phoenix Auspicious" jade pendant, though referred to as one, it could be considered two, able to be separated or joined together.
The dragon and phoenix designs carved on the two jade pendants are lifelike, the dragon and phoenix seem ready to soar out of them.
"This item is named 'Dragon and Phoenix Yin Yang Celestial Secret Pendant,' reportedly related to the ancient 'Celestial Secret Sect,' specific effects unknown, but absolutely extraordinary!"
The auctioneer announced loudly, "The starting price for this item is ten thousand middle-grade spirit stones, each increment is one thousand middle-grade spirit stones!"
"Wow..."
The grade and function of this item are unknown, aside from its origin, everything else is unknown, yet starting at ten thousand middle-grade spirit stones?
This price excludes many Golden Core Realm cultivators!
Even someone wealthy like Li Yunjing was intently focused on the "Dragon and Phoenix Yin Yang Celestial Secret Pendant," his eyebrows slightly furrowed.
Although he's rich, a starting price of ten thousand middle-grade spirit stones is not a small sum.
Moreover, the pendant's effects and origins are unclear, the only certainty is its connection to the ancient "Celestial Secret Sect."
Not everything from ancient times is necessarily good.
If the Four Seas Commerce Association could research it and found it truly useful, why would they put it up for auction?
Li Yunjing did not believe the Association's president would sell treasures just for spirit stones.
"Celestial Secret Sect..."
Li Yunjing hesitated.
A starting bid of ten thousand middle-grade spirit stones is something even he needs to consider and weigh.
Zhao Qi turned to Li Yunjing and softly asked, "Do you think this is worth the bid?"
"It's hard to say!"
Li Yunjing pondered for a moment before slowly speaking, "'Celestial Secret Sect' was one of the most mysterious sects in ancient times, rumored to excel in celestial calculations, and even able to glimpse the secrets of heaven and earth."
"This 'Dragon and Phoenix Yin Yang Celestial Secret Pendant' should certainly come from the 'Celestial Secret Sect'! But I fear this thing might be useless!"
Li Yunjing expressed his concerns.
Just like in the Shenxiao Dao Sect, treasures of Tier Four, Tier Five, and even higher exist, but most are Tier One, Two, or Three treasures.
