Fox Demon: The villain at the beginning

Chapter 487 Official Breakthrough, Prodigy

"Perhaps it was just a casual test!"

Xiao Yan said calmly.

"After all, with so many people attending this auction, there will always be some who are curious about our Xiao family."

"It's not surprising that they wanted to find out!"

"It's true!"

Upon hearing this, Xun'er nodded.

She had no reason to pursue such casual probing.

We can only let it happen.

"Congratulations to Clan Chief Jialie for winning a bottle of Foundation Establishment Elixir at auction for 80,000 gold coins!"

"The remaining six bottles of Foundation Establishment Elixir will be auctioned in three batches, with two bottles in each batch. The starting price is 30,000 gold coins!"

With a mature and charming smile on her face, Ya Fei brought the auction to a climax in just a few words.

"Eighty thousand gold coins for a bottle of Foundation Establishment Elixir, that's really not cheap!"

Upon hearing the price, Jin Renfeng sighed inwardly.

Logically speaking, forty thousand gold coins should be the maximum price for a second-grade pill like this. Any higher, even if it could improve strength, would be an excessive premium.

When he auctioned off the Foundation Establishment Elixir to decipher the prescription, he only spent 70,000 gold coins. This price of 80,000 gold coins is 10,000 gold coins more than he spent back then.

"The people of Wutan City are really crazy about elixirs."

Jin Renfeng thought to himself.

As bottles of Foundation Building Elixir were auctioned off, huge sums of gold coins were spent.

In this feast where money buys talent, everyone spares no effort.

In the audience, Jin Renfeng also saw buyers from other cities.

He wasn't surprised by this.

Several large-scale elixir auctions in succession have elevated the auction scene in Wutan City to a whole new level.

Today, the Mittel branch in Utan City is the most prestigious auction house in the surrounding area.

Only below a major city like Blackrock City.

Therefore, each auction is no longer limited to wealthy households from Wutan City, unlike before.

Powerful families from surrounding cities will also flock to the auction. And sellers looking to sell their goods at high prices will prioritize coming to Utan City.

As a result, the auction house's revenue increased significantly.

. . . . . . . .

As soon as Ya Fei saw Jin Renfeng after the auction ended, she rushed into his arms.

"Seven bottles of Foundation Establishment Elixir sold for a total of 450,000 gold coins!"

"How about it?"

A smug look appeared on Ya Fei's pretty face as she struck a pose of showing off.

"It's almost double the normal price."

Jin Renfeng laughed,
"That's an astronomical price!"

"You've made a big deal for the auction house this time."

This level of success is inseparable from Ya Fei's well-planned publicity strategy.

This effect was achieved by binding Xiao Yan with the Foundation Establishment Elixir.

"With these few elixir auctions as a selling point, the auction house's revenue will definitely continue to rise."

Ya Fei smiled and said,

"I estimate that the Mittel Auction House will soon be able to rise to another level."

"Then I wish you all the best in achieving your goal soon!"

Jin Renfeng followed Ya Fei's wishes.

The two exchanged a few private words and then headed towards the waiting room.

Even after the auction ended, there were still some loose ends to be cleaned up.

The hospitality of these major clients also required Ya Fei's personal presence.

However, just as the two reached the stairs, a powerful aura suddenly surged from Jin Renfeng's body.

A powerful shockwave spread out, creating a gust of wind.

Startled by this imposing aura, Consort Ya trembled involuntarily, and a look of fear appeared on her pretty face.

Seeing that things were not going well, Jin Renfeng quickly suppressed his aura.

The pressure contracted into the body like a tide.

"What was that just now?"

Seeing that the man had calmed down, Ya Fei stepped forward and asked in a low voice.

"As I approach a breakthrough, I'm finding it increasingly difficult to suppress the battle qi within me."

Jin Renfeng smiled wryly.

"At this point, we should try to break through as soon as possible."

Ya Fei looked worried.

"Otherwise, if we miss the opportunity to break through, it will be too late!"

"That's exactly why I came here!"

Jin Renfeng chuckled softly.

When have you decided to start?

"Ya Fei asked."

"Tomorrow!"

Jin Renfeng turned to look at Ya Fei and said with a wicked smile,
"I used up a lot of energy yesterday, so I need to rest for a day to get back to my peak condition."

"Screw you!"

Sensing the teasing in the man's words, Ya Fei gave a coquettish laugh.

. . . . . .

The next day!

Inside the meditation room, Jin Renfeng sat cross-legged on a futon, calming his mind and spirit.

Although the joke would take up Ya Fei's room, he still chose Mittel's private training room as his breakthrough location as he was approaching his breakthrough.

hum-

The heavy iron gate, ten feet high, slowly opened, and a beautiful figure walked in.

Jin Renfeng opened his eyes.

"Preparations are almost complete."

Ya Fei's charming face carried a hint of seriousness.

"I have announced that the Mittel auction house will be closed today."

"At the same time, have the auction house's guards prepare to prevent anyone from entering or leaving."

"Now that only our people are in this auction house, there will be absolutely no problems."

"sorry to bother you!"

Jin Renfeng took the woman's delicate hand in his and patted it.

There's no need for formalities between us!

Ya Fei rolled her eyes at the man and said in a coquettish voice.

"Call me anytime if you need anything."

"I will stand guard outside the door, ready to be at your service at any time."

"rest assured!"

Jin Renfeng said calmly.

After explaining the specific arrangements, Ya Fei turned around and walked out the door.

boom--

The massive iron gate closed again.

Jin Renfeng also focused his attention on the fighting spirit within his body.

Everything is ready; it's time for the official breakthrough.

With a thought, the originally still fighting spirit immediately burst out of the fighting spirit vortex and ran along the meridians of the cultivation technique.

Like a dam bursting, a mighty surge of fighting spirit swept past, carrying the momentum to break through all obstacles.

At this moment, Jin Renfeng transformed into a black hole, absorbing all the surrounding energy into his body.

A vast amount of cosmic energy was drawn in, forming a huge vortex that hovered above his head.

The vortex continued to expand, and in just a moment, it burst out of the roof and reached the sky.

Outside the iron gate!
Sensing the overwhelming vortex of energy, Ya Fei's pretty face showed astonishment.

"This guy's strength is getting stronger and stronger."

"It actually caused such a huge commotion!"

Her talent for cultivation was poor, her strength was weak, and she couldn't tell the man's current strength.

"With such a large energy vortex, breaking through to the Dou Ling realm this time should be a sure thing!"

Ya Fei thought to herself.

Time passed slowly, but the energy vortex showed no sign of diminishing; instead, it gradually grew larger.

An old man hurried from a distance, his head covered in sweat and his white beard disheveled.

Upon seeing Ya Fei, he immediately asked.

"Ya Fei, what exactly happened in the cultivation room?"

What exactly caused this energy vortex?

"Master Gu Ni, don't panic!" Ya Fei comforted her.
“One of my good friends is here, using this place to break through to the Dou Ling realm.”

"Breaking through to the Dou Ling realm?"

Gu Ni exclaimed in surprise, pointing to the room.
Miss Yafei, you're not joking, are you?
"How could a mere Battle Spirit create an energy vortex of this magnitude?"

"Master Gu Ni, please rest assured!"

Ya Fei shook her head.

"I know the people inside very well, there's absolutely no mistake about that!"

"Perhaps the scale is indeed a bit large, but that's just because he's exceptionally talented!"

Seeing the woman's resolute expression, Gu Ni gave a wry smile and said,

“Miss Ya Fei, you are not good at cultivation, so you may not understand the strength of the Dou Ling level.”

"But in my memory, a Dou Ling expert couldn't possibly put this much pressure on me."

"Not to mention the Grand Dou Masters who are about to break through to the Dou Ling realm!"

As a powerful Grand Dou Master, he had never been so embarrassed, even when facing a Five-Star Dou Spirit.

How could a mere Grand Master who was just about to break through to the Dou Ling realm be suppressed like this?

"Not a battle spirit?"

Ya Fei frowned slightly.

"If it's not a Battle Spirit, could it be a Battle King?"

"Just breaking through a realm can generate such a huge energy vortex!"

"Your friend must be breaking through to the Dou Wang realm!!"

Gu Ni said solemnly.

"I think you've misjudged the strength of the person inside!"

Upon hearing this, a look of surprise and doubt appeared on Ya Fei's beautiful face.

She was weak and couldn't discern Jin Renfeng's strength. Therefore, when the man mentioned breakthrough, she instinctively assumed it meant breaking through to the Dou Ling realm.

After all, Jin Renfeng was too young. Even considering her outstanding talent, fighting spirits was already the limit she could imagine.

As for breaking through to the Dou Wang realm, Ya Fei didn't even dare to entertain the thought.

However, Gu Ni's words completely changed Ya Fei's perception, causing her to waver slightly.

"Could it be that that guy is really breaking through to the Dou Wang level?"

Ya Fei murmured to herself.

Considering that Jin Renfeng had never mentioned his specific strength to her, she couldn't help but doubt herself.

Unlike Gu Ni, who knew nothing about Jin Renfeng, Ya Fei knew Jin Renfeng's identity and also knew his age.

"If the man really is breaking through to the Dou Wang level, doesn't that mean a sixteen-year-old Dou Wang is about to be born?"

. . . . . . . . . . . . .

Wutan City, Xiao Family Manor!

A quiet room!

The ethereal old man, like a ghost, hovered in mid-air, while in his right hand, white flames rolled and burned, with a slightly green pill tinged with pale blue suspended within.

Xiao Yan, watching this scene from the side, didn't even dare to breathe loudly.

As time passed, the alchemy process came to an end. The white flames slowly subsided.

The moment the flames disappeared, the old man suddenly grabbed a jade bottle from the table with his left hand and stuffed the pills into it.

"call………"

He breathed a long sigh of relief, tossed the jade bottle to Xiao Yan beside him, and said indifferently, "Here you go! The Qi Gathering Powder you wanted."

Xiao Yan carefully took the jade bottle, looked it over, and said...
"It feels much stronger than the Qi Gathering Powder that my father bought at auction."

"It's not even as good as the Qi Gathering Powder that Nalan Yanran gave me!"

"That's natural!"

The old doctor flicked his sleeves triumphantly.

"How could my alchemy skills be compared to those of the alchemists in your Gama Empire?"

Xiao Yan's face lit up with joy.

With this pill, he can break through to the Dou Zhe level at the fastest speed.

Just as he put the jade bottle into his storage ring, a startled cry of birds suddenly came from outside.

Then, an invisible wave suddenly swept across the entire space.

Xiao Yan trembled, his hair stood on end, and he felt as if he were being watched by a powerful demonic beast.

"Such a powerful aura!!"

The old doctor was the first to react, turning his head to look at the source of the aura and said.

"Someone is breaking through to the Dou Wang realm!"

"Dou Wang?"

Xiao Yan was extremely surprised.

"This Wutan City doesn't even have a Dou Ling, so how could anyone break through to Dou Wang?"

Even in the Jia Ma Empire, experts at the Dou Wang realm are extremely rare.

How could a near-Battle King possibly break through in such a remote and impoverished place as Wutan City?
"Judging from this position, the person who broke through should be located at the Mittel Auction House."

The old doctor's eyes gleamed with a sharp light.

"Mittel Auction House?"

Xiao Yan looked surprised and doubtful.

"Could it be that someone from the Mittel family has arrived?"

Although he had never left Utan City, he was aware of the Mittel family's status in the Gama Empire.

Given the strength of the Mittel family, it's not surprising that they would produce a Dou Wang level expert.

"It doesn't look like it!"

However, the old doctor shook his head.

"This aura gives me a vague sense of familiarity."

"A familiar feeling? Could it be that your old nemesis has come knocking on your door, teacher?!"

Xiao Yan said with concern.

Although he did not yet know the teacher's background, he understood that the teacher's strength in life must have been extremely terrifying.

If it was someone the old master knew during his lifetime, their influence must have been extremely formidable.

"How could my former nemesis be a mere Fighting King?"

The old doctor rolled his eyes.

Xiao Yan was taken aback at first, then quickly realized what was happening.

The Dou Wang realm does indeed seem somewhat inconsistent with this teacher's unfathomable strength.

"If they're not enemies, could they be friends?"

"Neither!"

The old doctor shook his head and said...

"It should be the aura I've seen since I woke up this time."

"I've seen you since you woke up? But teacher, weren't you always inside my ring?"

Xiao Yan frowned.

"Could it be that I've seen this person before?"

"That's how it should be!"

Yao Lao said calmly.

"Upon closer inspection, this aura does resemble that of that young man from the Yunlan Sect back then."

"Teacher, are you referring to Young Master Jin?"

Xiao Yan's eyes widened suddenly.

As the first person to point out the problem with the ring and save him from his suffering, he would naturally not forget it.

"That's right!"

The old doctor nodded.

"If I'm not mistaken, it should be Jin Renfeng breaking through his cultivation level!"

"Teacher, could you have made a mistake?"

"I remember that Young Master Jin was only at the peak of the Battle Master level before."

Xiao Yan said in disbelief.

"How could he have broken through to the Dou Wang level in just one year?"

The old doctor shook his head and said calmly,
"The world is vast, and there are many geniuses!"

"Those who can achieve this level of cultivation speed may be few, but they are certainly not nonexistent."

"Perhaps that young man is exceptionally talented, or maybe he had some kind of extraordinary encounter!"

"This has significantly enhanced our strength!"

"I still don't believe anyone can cultivate so quickly."

Xiao Yan persisted.

"Teacher, you must have made a mistake!"

Two major realms in a year, and both of them are the powerful realms of Great Battle Master and Battle Spirit.

This is something no human could do.
In his view, only a prodigy could achieve this level of skill.

Seeing the doubt on Xiao Yan's face, Yao Lao shook his head and sighed softly.
"Since you don't believe me, let's go and see for ourselves."

After saying that, he transformed into a stream of light and entered Xiao Yan's body.
