The Heavens Start to Reverse Fate from Martial Arts

Chapter 298 The auction begins, the small gossip furnace
The capital city of Xianyang is of extraordinary majesty.

The overall layout follows the concept of "imitating the heaven and following the earth, achieving unity of heaven and man", and is like a divine city on earth.

There are no city walls, and it stretches for thousands of miles. The palaces are majestic, the platforms are high, the red pillars support the carved beams and painted buildings, the glazed tiles shine brightly, and the dazzling tides flow through, making it look magnificent.

The streets are wide and well-organized, with many prosperous shops. Jewelry from the Western Regions, spices from the Baiyue Kingdom, and furs from the north gather here, and people come and go, creating a bustling atmosphere.

Officials and civilians enjoyed themselves leisurely, vendors hawked their wares, scholars talked enthusiastically, patrolling soldiers wore armor, and the society was in good order and public security was good.

On this day, the city of Xianyang was decorated with lights and was bustling with activity.

On the square outside the Xianyang Imperial Palace, there are towering pavilions that reach into the sky, with carved beams and painted rafters, gold-painted and jade tiles, and the words "Auction House" inscribed on them, showing the magnificent scene.

There was a huge crowd of people in front of the auction. People from all sides, led by officials from Yiwuwang City, poured into the auction house in an orderly manner.

The representatives of various forces who knew the background of Yiwu King City were very polite in their words and actions, not daring to act rashly. This was the invisible benefit brought about by the opening of the Virtual God Realm for three years.

Xushen Auction House, Di Zi Hao Ya Ge.

The princes of the nine Dao realms sat around the table, all with extremely solemn expressions.

During the three years of traveling, they saw too many extraordinary things about the Virtual God Realm, as well as the boundless heritage hidden deep within the Yiwu Royal City.

The nine of them can become the crown princes of various countries, so they are naturally not stupid people. Their vision, knowledge, experience and perspective are incomparable to ordinary people.

That's why they are so solemn.

"Virtual God Realm... Dragon Tooth Rice, it is really hard to imagine, when the two are combined, what kind of terrifying power will burst out?"

Wu Dao held the wine cup in his hand, his eyes looking very dazed, as if he had seen a horrible storm in the near future.

Yan Cang's red hair fluttered, his eyes were blazing with fire, and contained boundless ambitions. He picked up the crystal clear dragon meat and put it into his mouth, chewed it for a while and swallowed it. After a while, he said quietly:

"It has a good color, aroma and taste. All five senses can enjoy the sweetness and freshness of dragon meat. What's even more rare is that... my soul has been slightly enhanced."

"This also means that the Virtual God Realm has the miraculous effect of strengthening the soul, and the strength can be brought out, rather than being an illusory dream. In the end... maybe it can really become a vast and real world."

When Yan Cang said this, the red flames in his eyes burned even more fiercely.

If Yan Country possesses the Virtual God Realm and Dragon Tooth Rice, its strength will experience a leap-forward increase, and even the position of Human Emperor will be within reach.

Unfortunately...the climate in Yiwu King City has already formed, and the calamity of all races is getting more and more severe, so it is almost impossible to plan for this virtual god world.

Yang Ding's eyes were solemn, and he said indifferently: "War, the martial arts world, the imperial court, the common people, the Jixia Academy... Each dungeon is a small world for people to train. Over time, the foundation accumulated by Yiwu King City will be unimaginable."

"After a hundred years, a thousand years, or even ten thousand years, how big will Yiwu Royal City grow to? Can the Nine Regions and Nine Kingdoms still maintain their current advantages? Will Yiwu Royal City overtake them? These are all things we need to consider and be cautious about."

Chu Feiyan put down the wine cup, nodded and said in a serious tone: "Brother Yang's words make sense. What the Void God Realm has revealed is too terrifying. If we allow Yiwu Royal City to continue to develop like this, it may become a major threat to our nine countries."

As he spoke, he looked at Li Chenxuan and said calmly, "It's like the Li Kingdom. At the moment when the demon disaster is rampant, there is no good way to suppress the Yiwu King City. To put it bluntly... the survival of the Li Kingdom is at stake."

Li Chenxuan paused while raising his glass, narrowed his eyes slightly, raised his head and drank the wine in the glass, put down the cup, and said calmly:

"If the Li Kingdom perishes, Yiwu Royal City will break the existing shackles and officially embark on the road of the struggle for the emperor. At that time, it will not only be the Li Kingdom that is in danger of survival."

Everyone was indifferent when they heard this. How could they not know this?
But the Virtual God Realm revealed too many things, so many that it was frightening and made people dare not even have the slightest intention of causing trouble.

The purpose of Yiwu Royal City revealing these is to deter people with ulterior motives, and the effect is surprisingly good. Not to mention other small forces, even the nine countries do not dare to cause trouble easily.

Zhao Qian narrowed his eyes and said calmly: "With the capabilities of our countries, it is not difficult to open up a world similar to the Virtual God Realm. After obtaining the Dragon Tooth Rice, we can open up a virtual world similar to the Virtual God Realm, which should be able to stabilize our position to a certain extent."

Wu Daodan scoffed, "It's easy to say. The teachers in the Jixia Academy are all very wise. Such great talents are all guests of honor in various countries, and they are also powerful practitioners. How can we win over such people?"

"Without a good faculty, we cannot replicate a holy place of literature and Taoism like the Jixia Academy. Simply replicating war dungeons, temple dungeons, martial arts dungeons, and folk dungeons will not be able to compete with the Void God Realm."

Wei Yun put down his bowl and chopsticks, his expression extremely serious, and said in a concentrated voice: "Now it is not a question of how to compete, but how to keep up with the pace of Yiwu Royal City. First solve the problem of whether we have it or not, and then consider the problem of catching up or even surpassing it."

"The idea of ​​the Virtual God Realm to use the heaven and earth as a comprehensive academy is worthy of adoption by all countries like us. Only a steady stream of talents of all kinds can make a country strong. In this regard, Yiwu Royal City has gone a long way. If we don't catch up... the consequences will be disastrous."

Li Chenxuan hid the worry between his brows, looked at everyone solemnly, and said in a deep voice: "I propose that the nine countries work together to create a world similar to the Void God Realm, so that we can keep up with the pace of Yiwu King City."

Wu Dao tapped the table lightly, thought for a moment, and nodded, "It really requires the combined efforts of the nine countries to accomplish this..."

As he spoke, he looked at everyone with a dim gaze and said calmly, "This is a conspiracy by Yiwu Royal City. If we don't follow, we will fall behind and die. This is forcing us nine nations to work with them to improve the overall strength of the human race."

Everyone present was indifferent again. The reason why an open conspiracy is an open conspiracy is that although they know the other party's intentions, they cannot find a suitable countermeasure.

All they can do is follow suit, and the rest can only sit back and watch Yiwu King City grow bigger, which is tantamount to waiting to die.

"Boom-"

The evening drum and morning bell were clearly heard by everyone, interrupting the thoughts of several people.

"The auction has begun..." Wu Dao stood up and walked to the floor-to-ceiling window, overlooking the nine-foot-high auction platform below. His eyes looked deep and solemn.

Li Chenxuan and others stood up and came to his side and stood in a line. Looking at the dense crowd below, a solemn look gradually emerged between their brows.

The real show has begun...

Wang Yaolian walked up the stairs slowly and stood in front of the auction table.

Her three thousand strands of black hair fluttered in the wind, and she was wearing a moon-white silk skirt dotted with thousands of stars and strange patterns, which made her look noble and elegant, just like a fairy in the Moon Palace.

"I am Wang Yao, the sister of King Yiwu. Welcome everyone to participate in the auction of Xushen Realm." Wang Yao looked around at everyone present with a faint smile on her face.

The people sitting around the platform, as well as the people from various forces in the buildings surrounding the auction platform on three sides, all looked at Wang Yao on the auction platform in silence.

Wang Yao smiled and continued, "After three years of traveling in the Virtual God Realm, I think everyone has already understood the heritage of my Yiwu King City and is looking forward to the next auction items. So I won't waste your time, and we will directly start the auction."

As he spoke, he waved his hand across the auction table, and the first item was presented.

A palm-sized tripod is suspended in suspension, with seal characters and runes blending on its body to form a Tai Chi Bagua pattern. It has three legs and two ears, and is simple and dark.

Wang Yao introduced in a clear and beautiful voice: "This thing is called the Small Eight Trigrams Furnace. It takes the essence of all things and integrates all the laws. It has the ability to refine the essence of all things and transform spiritual essence. The spirit of the instrument can automatically refine various kinds of elixirs. The starting price is 100,000 immortal crystals, or 100,000 top-grade dragon tooth pills." The crowd below was in a commotion, and soon someone stood up and bowed, saying: "Your Highness Yao, may I ask how this small eight trigrams furnace can automatically refine various kinds of elixirs? Can you demonstrate it to us?"

Wang Yao smiled slightly and explained softly: "Everything has its own principles, and the way of alchemy is the process of blending and sublimating the principles of all things."

"This alchemy furnace is based on yin and yang, with the eight trigrams as its shape and the five elements as its rules, forming a unique world. The spirit of the furnace is the way of heaven and earth. It truly achieves the magical effect of using heaven and earth as the furnace, the myriad ways as the fire, and naturally forming the elixir."

As he said this, he pinched his fingers and opened the furnace lid.

He raised his hand and the dragon tooth rice in the treasure box in the distance poured down like a long river and all fell into the furnace.

As the furnace lid was closed, the yin and yang energies suddenly intertwined around the furnace, the power of the five elements surrounded it, the Taoist aura of the Five Elements rotated in the air, runes flashed, and a wonderful spiritual Taoist aura emanated.

Soon, a rich rice fragrance bloomed, and a milky white light shot up into the sky, dyeing everything around with a layer of moonlight.

In the crowd below, an old man with white beard suddenly stood up.

He was wearing a dark green robe and smelled of medicine. He looked at the scene in front of him with his eyes wide open and exclaimed:
"Incredible! The spirit of this alchemy furnace can actually refine elixirs, and the refining method is completely natural, created by the law, and the materials are taken from heaven and earth, and naturally they are transformed into elixirs. Tao follows nature, which is extraordinary! I can't compare to it..."

The middle-aged man behind him heard this and exclaimed in disbelief: "Master Yao, are you kidding? You are a Heaven-grade Alchemist, only a hair's breadth away from being an Immortal-grade Alchemist. You have already mastered the art of alchemy to perfection. How could you not even be as good as this little tool?"

"What? A top-grade alchemist?!" Everyone around looked over quickly.

"The elder of the Yaozun Valley in Qingzhou, our ancestral land, Yao Chen! I didn't expect that even people from the Yaozun Valley would come..." Someone recognized Yao Chen's identity and couldn't help but look inexplicably surprised.

The people in Yaozun Valley are all stay-at-home people. They stay in the valley all day long tinkering with alchemy. Few of them come out. They always appear lonely and mysterious.

Yao Chen ignored the surprised looks of the crowd and directly raised his placard to bid: "I bid 500,000 Immortal Crystals!"

As an alchemist, I can better appreciate the mystery of the small Bagua furnace.

He saw a completely new way of alchemy, which was the path to large-scale and stable mass production.

If one could research some alchemy techniques from it, not to mention breaking through the current realm to become an immortal alchemist, the mere idea of ​​large-scale mass production would be enough to make any alchemist crazy.

This is an unimaginable fortune. With the small Bagua furnace, he is confident that he can take Yaozun Valley to a further step.

Wow!
The crowd around was suddenly in an uproar. The value of 500,000 immortal crystals was enough to surpass the top immortal king weapons. Such an offer was truly incredible.

“Five hundred and ten thousand immortal crystals!”

“Five hundred and thirty thousand immortal crystals!”

"Six hundred and twenty thousand immortal crystals!"

……

Soon, the rising and falling bidding sounds were heard.

People from all major forces in the hall raised their signs and bid. The price kept rising and soon broke through the million immortal crystal mark.

"Two million immortal crystals!"

A faint voice came from the private room on the third floor behind everyone, and the noisy scene suddenly became quiet.

Everyone in the hall was startled. They didn't expect that a truly powerful force would start bidding so early.

This also means that the competition in the future will become more intense, and small and medium-sized forces will become spectators of this auction.

Wang Yao smiled faintly and waved her hand to lift the stove lid.

Suddenly, a milky white light shot up into the sky, and a rich and tempting rice aroma filled the air. A silver-white river formed by the best dragon tooth pills shot up into the sky, then scattered and fell into the hands of everyone present in turn.

Wang Yao said softly at the right time: "Two million immortal crystals, once! Two million immortal crystals, twice! Two million..."

Seeing this, Yao Chen looked anxious and said loudly, "Your Highness Yao, can you offer a discount in exchange for something of equal value?"

He was traveling alone this time and did not carry that many immortal crystals.

If he couldn't exchange it for something of equal value, he would really miss out on the small Bagua Furnace. How could he bear this?

Wang Yao smiled at Yao Chen, then slowly scanned the entire room and said softly, "The Virtual God Realm Auction House has just been established, and its foundation is still shallow. Naturally, we hope to gather the divine objects of heaven and earth to fill our inventory. It is naturally feasible to cash in these equivalent objects."

If an auction house wants to grow, rich and unique items are essential.

Moreover, if the auction house is managed well, the wealth and convenience it can bring cannot be ignored.

Often, those precious and hard-to-find wonders of heaven and earth come into being in this way, and this is also an invisible foundation that cannot be ignored.

Yao Chen's face relaxed, and he quickly took out ten bottles of pills from his storage ring: "These are ten Heavenly Dao Pills. Each pill can make a person realize enlightenment for a hundred years, and is worth five million immortal crystals."

As he said this, he delivered ten bottles of pills to the auction table with a painful look on his face.

Seeing the astonished expressions of the people around him, Wang Yao curiously reached out to take it, opened the porcelain bottle, poured out a sky-blue pill, and placed it in his palm to examine it carefully.

Attracted by the wonderful Taoist aura emitted by the elixir, his soul gradually became ethereal, the world before his eyes became clear, the laws of heaven and earth became apparent, and it seemed that he would fall into a deep enlightenment in the next moment.

"The Heavenly Dao Pill, a third-level immortal pill, has miraculous effects in enlightening the Dao, and its value is unquestionable."

Wang Yao heard the elder brother's words and nodded slightly. He returned the pill to the porcelain bottle and smiled, "Five million immortal crystals once... twice... three times! Deal! Congratulations to Senior Yao Chen for winning the small Bagua furnace."

As soon as he finished speaking, the small Bagua furnace spontaneously flew into Yao Chen's hand, leaving a faintly visible mark on his hand.

Seeing Yao Chen eagerly looking over, Wang Yao patiently explained, "Although the Virtual God Realm can do real exchange, considering the safety of you and the auction items, Yiwu Royal City has decided to complete the final transaction in the Royal Palace. This will also ensure the safety of every guest to the greatest extent possible."

Upon hearing this, Yao Chen's expression relaxed and the pain in his heart was alleviated a lot.

The eyes of the other small and medium-sized forces who were still watching could not help but flicker. The suppressed hearts surged again.
