In the world of "Covering the Sky," my cultivation technique is not right.

"Star River Sand? Are you sure?" Han Li's eyes flashed with greed when he heard about such a treasure.

The elders and supreme elders of the Qin Clan rarely possess such treasures.

"Hmm..." Manager Liu pondered for a moment, then hesitated and said, "I'm not very confident, after all, White Deer Pavilion has a weak foundation, and many treasures are hard to find."

Then, a bitter smile appeared on his face: "Those nearly one hundred ancient spirit weapons have almost exchanged for most of the White Deer Pavilion's source stone reserves. If it weren't for the Pavilion Master's discerning eye, I wouldn't have dared to accept them."

"Most of the Origin Stone reserves? That's a full million catties of Origin Stones!" Han Li exclaimed in surprise.

"Yes," Manager Liu confirmed.

The two entered the White Deer Pavilion. The main hall was magnificent and resplendent, clearly having been decorated with a spatial magic technique, with an interior space of nearly 10,000 square meters.

Where is my father?

"The Pavilion Master is in the backyard," said Steward Liu.

Han Li nodded and went straight out of the main hall through the back door, heading towards where the White Deer Pavilion Master was.

"Father!" Han Li pushed open the courtyard gate and saw a plump middle-aged man examining a small silver tower. The tower had ten stories and was simple and grand.

"Li'er, you're back." When the White Deer Pavilion Master saw his son return, a smile immediately appeared on his face, and his fat cheeks trembled slightly.

He beckoned to Han Li: "Come quickly, take a look at this Spirit Pagoda. Wouldn't it be perfect as a gift for Elder Qinmen Luo?"

He handed the small silver tower to Han Li, letting Han Li examine it carefully.

"This is... a Dragon Transformation Treasure?" Han Li was only a Dao Palace cultivator at the moment, and his heart trembled as he sensed the abyss-like divine power and profound Dao principles within the small tower.

In the hands of a dragon-transformation cultivator, a mere ray of divine light from this thing could obliterate his body and soul.

"That's right. And if you look closely, this silver pagoda should have been casually crafted by someone. In reality, its material should be capable of forging a half-step great power treasure."

The White Deer Pavilion Master spoke with absolute certainty; this was his profession, and he couldn't possibly be wrong.

If you don't even have this much insight, how can you survive in auction houses of all sizes?

Han Li, having been influenced by this from a young age and with guidance from her father, saw through the intricacies of this small tower; it was indeed extraordinary.

"Are these the weapons those two cultivators were selling?" Han Li asked.

"Yes, this is the best of the eighty spiritual weapons. As long as someone nurtures it for several decades, the spirit within the weapon will emerge."

This small tower was only initially born with a wisp of ignorant and incomplete weapon consciousness, which was far from being a true deity, but it was still very precious. Many powerful ancient weapons could not achieve this.

Those eighty weapons were all initially imbued with spirit; only a small portion of them would eventually develop consciousness.

Even so, it was still extremely terrifying and enviable. At that time, many cultivators from the Eastern Wilderness fought to the death for these artifacts.

"How about it? Elder Luo is a half-step Great Power, so this silver pagoda is just the right gift for his birthday next month."

White Deer Pavilion also wanted to establish connections with the Qin Clan's higher-ups. In addition to the Silver Pagoda, they also collected a three-thousand-year-old medicinal herb, paying a great price in the process.

But compared to what he wanted, all of this was worth it.

Han Li put down the silver pagoda, took a deep breath, and said to his father, "Elder Luo broke through to the Great Power level last month."

The implication is that the silver tower might not be enough; it has a slight chance of becoming a powerful weapon, but that's just potential, not a certainty.

"This..." Pavilion Master Bailu was stunned. The strength of the Qin Clan was probably even greater than that of the Hundred Flowers Sect. If his son hadn't mistakenly entered the depths of the Qin Mountains and joined the outer sect of the Qin Clan, he wouldn't have known that there was such a terrifying force in the Qin Mountains.

"Father, White Deer Pavilion is just a small auction house. It's already the limit if it can offer something that would tempt a half-step Great Power."

Han Li recalled the two people who had just left; one was only at the Life Spring stage, and the other, with his arm around his shoulder, probably wasn't too strong either.

"It's hard to produce any more treasures that would satisfy Emperor Luo."

"Indeed, the White Deer Pavilion has reached its limit in its development. Without the support of the Hundred Sects, it will be difficult to make further progress."

The owner of Bailu Pavilion paced back and forth in the courtyard, his fat face showing a troubled expression. Expanding and developing the business was his lifelong dream.

"Father, I heard a rumor at the Qin family last month."

"What rumor?"

"The Qin Clan may possess secret techniques comparable to the forbidden chapters of the Imperial Scripture." Han Li's words made the White Deer Pavilion Master tremble, his face filled with disbelief.

Are you serious?

That's a forbidden secret technique; none of the Hundred Sects of Zhongzhou possess it.

"And coincidentally, the main mountain's scripture pavilion will be guarded by Grandmaster Luo from now on," Han Li revealed another secret.

Becoming an inner disciple is easy; all you need to do is listen to the elders of the main mountain recite a scripture day and night, and persevere until you can enter the inner sect.

However, he curried favor with Luo Taishang for two reasons: first, to find a powerful backer, and second, to obtain profound teachings.

It should be noted that there are not many inner disciples, but in the past ten years, no one has been known to be granted forbidden secret techniques or scriptures.

Becoming an outer disciple was somewhat haphazard, but to become an inner disciple and learn the core inheritance, one had to resort to certain methods.

The White Deer Pavilion Master paused, gritted his teeth, and said fiercely, "I still have some friends. Even if I have to borrow, I will borrow gifts that will satisfy Elder Luo."

As long as it can have a powerful backer, White Deer Pavilion will have a chance to develop, and perhaps even a slight chance to surpass Hundred Flowers Pavilion.

The son also has access to forbidden secret techniques.

Even if he doesn't get the child, with this connection, his son can at least learn some secrets from Mrs. Luo, right?

The future is bright!

Han Li said softly, "I heard from Steward Liu that of the two who just left, the young man in white had a purple gourd hanging from his waist, which might be Star River Sand?"

"I can't tell. It's a bit different from Star River Sand." Pavilion Master Bai Lu shook his head.

Naturally, it's different. The gourd-shaped vessel is refined using a special method, and its divine power is difficult to discern from its surface unless it truly unleashes its divine might.

This artifact is only for temporary use. Once the Bronze Immortal Palace is born, he will definitely ask Ye Fan for some of the Mother Qi of All Things, and then find a way to go to the outer perimeter of the Primordial Ancient Mine to take away that Phoenix Blood Crimson Gold Stone and re-refine his artifact.

The Nine Great Immortal Golds are indeed hard to find. Could it be that I should follow Da Nannan's example and use my own body to make weapons?

The White Deer Pavilion Master is indeed capable; he can see through some clues.

"But it's definitely not an ordinary object, it's stronger than this silver pagoda?" Han Li held up the silver pagoda in his hand.

"Of course." The White Deer Pavilion Master was certain of this.

"What is his cultivation level?"

"Dao Palace".

Manager Liu couldn't see through it, but the White Deer Pavilion Master of the Dragon Transformation Secret Realm easily discerned Lü Yao's cultivation level.

"Give that gourd to Elder Luo," Han Li said.

The Pavilion Master of White Deer Pavilion pondered for a moment and said, "Alright."

As for the idea that robbery is immoral, that's absurd! Where did this saint come from? Don't you know that even ancient sages robbed and killed?

"I will arrange for someone to investigate their whereabouts," said the White Deer Pavilion Master.

"I'll go myself," Han Li said confidently.

"After you find out his whereabouts, notify me, and I will take action personally." After much deliberation, the White Deer Pavilion Master decided that it would be safest to take action himself.

"I understand," Han Li replied casually, then left the courtyard and arranged for someone to inquire about the whereabouts of the two boys.

"Whether I can become a disciple of a great master and obtain forbidden secret techniques depends on you."

But he didn't know that the legendary forbidden technique within the Qin Clan was one that even the Qin Clan's leader had never mastered.

Furthermore, there is a secret technique called the Divine Transcendence Technique.
