The Great World: Rise from Liuyu

Chapter 164 Tianhe Divine Sand
Although the Shang Continent is not very large in area, it is a major transportation hub with extensive connections.
Because there are many direct teleportation arrays leading to other continents, the business atmosphere is very developed. Countless rare treasures from all over the world gather here, attracting a large number of people.
Because this continent also has a teleportation array leading to the Tianluo Continent, this is also the last stop for Liu Bai and his team before reaching the Tianluo Continent.
This took the two of them nearly two months!
"Really, it's too tiring..." Even Liu Bai couldn't help but sigh, because Jiuyou felt that it was too much of a loss to take the teleportation. They flew all the way here, and the hardship involved could be imagined.
"Hehe, you should thank me. If it weren't for my thriftiness, you would have at least 10,000 Supreme Spirit Liquids in your hands now. Do you know what this number is? Even as the master of Jiuyou Palace, I dare not use it this way!"
"Yes, thank you Sister Jiuyou for saving me a mid-grade artifact."
Jiuyou rolled his eyes at the guy, then looked at the ground beneath his feet and said, "Okay, now we are in the territory of Shang Continent. This continent has the most magnificent auction house among the dozens of nearby continents. Countless spiritual treasures and divine objects, and various divine arts will be circulated here through various channels. As long as you have the Supreme Spirit Liquid, you can buy everything you want..."
Liu Bai nodded and said quietly, "I'm afraid there are many things that are not easy to come by..."
Jiuyou shrugged: "Who cares? Anyway, everyone just wants to get what they want."
This is the real reality.
"By the way, there are a few things you need to remember here..." Jiuyou suddenly thought of something and spoke.
"Here, especially in the auction house, it's best to be honest. Although this place is not big, it is full of good and bad people. There are countless forces of all sizes, and most of the auction houses have considerable backgrounds. Therefore, although there are countless treasures gathered here, few people dare to act recklessly here."
“It is said that hundreds of years ago, there was a top-level tycoon who, because he had set his eyes on a divine object but failed to obtain it at the auction, he actually snatched it away at the auction, and killed the auction house manager and his competitor for the divine object on the spot, and then fled with the treasure.
This incident shocked the Shang Continent at that time, and they responded immediately. The top power that the giant belonged to was besieged by many powerful forces in just a dozen days, and suffered heavy casualties. Even the giant was severely injured. In the end, he had to return the divine object in a panic, and also paid an extremely large amount of compensation to settle the matter. "
"So, don't even think about doing something lawless with your weak arms and legs, otherwise no one will be able to protect you..."
Liu Bai raised his eyebrows. He had also heard of this matter, but it was not in this world.
"What if someone blocks me outside the city? Will the auction venues in Shang Continent still care?" Liu Bai asked knowingly.
"This is the second point I want to make..." Jiuyou raised a finger and shook his head and said.
"The second rule of the Shang Continent is that the area outside the city is not a safe zone. No matter what happens, as long as it does not affect the city, they will not care. So if you are at the auction, you must keep a low profile, otherwise it will be troublesome if you are targeted by others."
Liu Bai immediately nodded as if he understood.
"Is that so? What if I target someone else? Will you help me?"
Jiuyou: "..."
"That depends on how much benefit you can give me!"
"I'm telling you, if you want me to be your thug, I won't do it if the benefits are less!"
"No problem! From now on, we will be a pair of great thieves, specializing in robbing houses and giving to the poor."
Jiuyou glared at him, "What do you mean by thieves and robbers? You are really shameless. How did you connect the words 'robbery' and 'rob the rich to help the poor' together? Whose wealth do you want to rob, and whose poverty do you want to help?"
"Of course, we rob their 'wealth' to help our 'poor'."
"I don't want to waste my time chatting with you. Let's get off. We have reached our destination!"
The two men fell from the sky while arguing, and what appeared in front of them was a huge and magnificent city.
Shangcheng, the main city of Shang Continent, is the most magnificent city on this continent, and it is also the center of the entire continent.
When Liu Bai appeared outside the mall, he looked up at the majestic city that seemed to be built by gods, and a look of surprise appeared on his face. Originally, Liu Bai thought that Beicang City was big enough, but he didn't expect that compared with the city in front of him, it was nothing.
The city wall in front of me was hundreds of feet high. The dark surface of the wall shone with a cold luster. The wall stretched out very far, and there was no sign of a corner until the end of the sight.
On the city wall, huge light symbols could be seen flashing, and terrifying spiritual power fluctuations were quietly rippling, making people's hearts flutter. Above the city, a huge column of light shot up into the sky, and finally formed a light shield that enveloped the entire city.
If one wants to enter the city, the only way is to pass through the city gate. Any attempt to descend from the sky will trigger the city's formation and will be regarded as an invader and attacked.
"What a powerful spiritual formation!"
This city defense formation did not hide anything, so Liu Bai could vaguely see a lot of things. At the very least, the level of this formation was definitely above level eight, and it might even be a level nine grandmaster formation!
A formation of this level cannot be broken even if the most powerful person on earth comes.
All large formations of this level are bidirectional, both inside and outside. So even if you are from the inside, you can't rush out after the large formation is activated.
"Let's go, we're going into the city." Jiuyou glanced at the city gate and said directly.
"Although the divine item you need is very rare, it should not be difficult to find it in the mall. Let's go to those auctions first to find out if there is anything that meets your requirements."
Liu Bai nodded.
He is different from Muchen in the original novel. The spirit gathering bowl in Liu Bai's hand is not sealed, so he can call upon all the supreme spirit liquid in it at any time. This is also the reason why he has been so extravagant along the way.
Anyway, I won't be relying too much on these supreme spiritual liquids for my future cultivation, so I might as well spend them while I can. It would be the right thing to do to exchange them for the items I urgently need now.
After entering the city, Liu Bai discovered what this so-called most prosperous city among dozens of surrounding continents looked like.
Originally, those roads were extremely vast, wider than any road Liu Bai had seen in his previous life, but at this moment they were still filled with people, and it would not be an exaggeration to say that they were shoulder to shoulder.
Jiuyou is such a beautiful woman, not only with a tall and perfect figure, but also with an exquisite and beautiful face, especially a pair of slightly narrow and long eyes that appear somewhat charming when slightly narrowed, and are full of untamed wildness. All of these are a fatal temptation to men.
Seeing some guys with bad intentions trying to get closer with a lewd look on their faces, Liu Bai immediately took a step forward, opened his solid chest and broad arms, and embraced Jiuyou in his arms, then glared at some of the guys fiercely.
Jiuyou did not object to Liu Bai's intimate behavior, and even chuckled.
After feeling the hostile looks from all around, he pressed his body towards Liu Bai...
In an instant, Liu Bai felt an extremely soft feeling hitting his arms, which made his heart suddenly move.
Only after they passed the most congested section of the road did Jiu You come out of Liu Bai's arms. Then he looked at Liu Bai, who looked like he was reminiscing, with a half-smile and said lightly, "How is it? Is it comfortable?"
Liu Bai coughed when he heard that, and immediately put on an appearance of a gentleman.
"No, it's just generally comfortable..."
"No, I mean those guys were so despicable. They actually wanted to take advantage of you when they were in a crowd. Fortunately, I reacted quickly, otherwise they would have succeeded!"
"Oh, but why do I feel like some nasty guy has succeeded now?"
As he spoke, Jiu You came closer again and said jokingly, "But sister doesn't care. Since you want to take advantage of sister so much, do you want to wait for sister to warm your bed one day?"
"This, isn't good..." Liu Bai hesitated, not knowing whether what the woman said was true or false.
"You really have this idea? Well, then, you have to be careful whether your small body can withstand it..."
"No, I'm just kidding. Seriously..."
The two men flirted with each other but ended up with Liu Bai's defeat. There was no other way, he was not strong enough, he could not stand up, if he wanted revenge, he could only wait until his cultivation level surpassed the other party.
The two did not stay on the street for too long, but went straight to the auction house.
Although there are many good things in the shops on both sides, if you really want to find those rare and precious objects, you still have to go to the auction house.
The things here may be more expensive, but the quality is absolutely guaranteed.
The largest auction hall in the mall is located in the center of the city. Even people who have just entered the mall can see the huge building.
Of course, Liu Bai did not see a little girl disguised as a man who ran away from home as in the original book, because at that time the girl was most likely still at home practicing hard under the watchful eyes of her father.
The two walked through several streets and turned a corner. Suddenly, the view in front of them opened up. In front of them, they saw a huge palace that was as big as a mountain standing quietly. The majestic spiritual power emanated from it, forming a beam of light that shot straight into the sky.
"Tsk tsk, Shang's Auction House..." Jiuyou looked up at the huge golden words outside the hall and said with a smile, "This is it."
"With this scale and momentum, it is indeed worthy of being the largest auction house in the dozens of continents. I am afraid that even in Tianluo Continent, there will be countless top forces who will come to participate in this auction."
Obviously, it was the first time for Liu Bai and Jiu You to see an auction of this level, so the shock in their eyes was not concealed at all.
Quickly walking into the auction hall, the first thing Liu Bai and his friends saw was a crystal hall. In front of the hall was a huge light curtain, which displayed the auctions that were taking place or about to take place at a certain location, as well as the various treasures that would appear in these auctions.
Soon, Liu Bai found the item he wanted in the light curtain information.
"The Heavenly River Divine Sand is an earth-attributed divine object that can rival the Taiyi True Water. According to legend, one grain of it can fill a lake that is a hundred miles long!"
"This is great. If we can use the Heavenly River Divine Sand to build the Five Spirit Gods, then who among the same level can withstand a single blow? Moreover, the Heavenly River Divine Sand has the ability to transform one into ten thousand. Even those Supreme Dharma Bodies that rank high will have a hard time breaking it..."
The joy on Liu Bai's face was not concealed at all, and it was obvious that he was truly satisfied with the Tianhe Divine Sand.
Jiuyou looked at him for a moment, then threw ten drops of Supreme Spirit Liquid to the woman at a counter. Then he took two tickets to the auction, took Liu Bai through the hall and walked into a light gate.
Behind the light gate is a venue similar to an arena. It is not large in scale and can only accommodate a few hundred people. After all, this is just a small auction and there are not many items for auction. On the contrary, the quality is not bad, so those who can enter here are of a certain net worth.
When Liu Bai entered, his eyes seemed to glance around unintentionally, and he indeed found several people who were not easy to deal with. The aura of these people was stronger than Jiuyou, and they were probably all powerful people at the fifth-grade supreme level.
Generally speaking, unless a top leader of a top force shows up in person, a fifth-grade supreme being is already a very powerful being.
But if it really was an auction of the sect master level, there would be no way a small fry like Liu Bai would be allowed to get involved. So although everyone present was not easy to mess with, none of them were to the point that Liu Bai and Jiu You would be afraid of.
Next, all you have to do is wait patiently for the auction to begin, and then bid for the things you like.
No one was causing trouble, and no one came to provoke Jiuyou because of her beauty, which made Liu Bai feel a little regretful. It seemed that his protagonist halo did not come with a range-limited halo of reducing intelligence, which made him less fun.
However, Jiuyou next to him was not idle. From time to time, he would introduce to Liu Bai the identities of those people he could recognize.
"Those are from the Fairy Fox Sect. Look at how slutty they are!" Jiuyou curled his lips at the scantily clad women.
Among these women was a young man in a bright pink gown. Seeing them being so close and intimate as if they were alone, Liu Bai couldn't help but look down on them.
"That man's identity is not simple. He is probably the victim of these vixen. Just wait and see. He looks so fake. He will be fooled and lose his pants in a while!"
(End of this chapter)
Chapter 165 Targeting
After hearing Jiuyou's words, Liu Bai quickly withdrew his gaze, but he was still very interested in the so-called Fairy Fox Sect he mentioned.
It seems to be recorded in the original book that the ancestor of the Fairy Fox Sect was a beautiful woman who practiced the art of seduction. When Martial Ancestor Lin Dong first arrived, she had plans to seduce him. Unfortunately, the Martial Ancestor had enough self-control and did not fall into the trap at all.
"The Fairy Fox Sect practices the Fairy Fox Charm Technique. Legend has it that it was passed down from a certain fox demon clan in ancient times. Not only do they make themselves look like neither human nor fox, but they also have a very fickle personality. They just like handsome men like you." Jiuyou glanced at this guy. Don't think she didn't notice. Her eyeballs almost popped out just now and were almost buried in those two lumps of flesh!
"You can't blame me for being handsome. Besides, how can anyone seduce someone like me who can remain calm even when a woman's beauty sits on my face?" Liu Bai held his head high and chest puffed out, looking righteous and awe-inspiring.
Unfortunately, the only response he got was Jiuyou's two cold sneers.
Soon, the two of them sat down at the front of the auction venue.
This chair is made of jade and covered with soft fur. Sitting on it, one can even faintly feel a faint spiritual energy flowing into the body. Obviously, both the jade and the fur are not ordinary things.
"It's worthy of being the largest auction house in the Shang Continent. Even the chairs are so luxurious." Liu Bai touched the soft fur on the chair and couldn't help but sigh.
Jiuyou didn't think it was shameful for him to be so naive, but instead started talking about the information of the people around him again.
"Everyone present in the auction hall should have a considerable background, but not many can pose a threat to us. The young man with a face that looks like he has kidney deficiency is one of them. The guard beside him should be a fifth-grade supreme being."
"As for him, he seems to be just a supreme being who has just broken through to the first level like you, and he doesn't look like he is good at fighting."
This made Liu Bai smile, and he said in a voice transmission: "What you mean is that we can afford to offend these people?"
Seeing his look, Jiu You naturally understood his thoughts instantly, but he just nodded slightly and had no intention of stopping him.
Seeing this, Liu Bai was even happier.
As time went by, the atmosphere in the venue gradually reached its climax. Finally, a beam of light shot up from the center of the auction hall, and there seemed to be a faint sound of bells.
Everyone looked over there.
In the beam of light, a woman in a long palace dress emerged. Although her appearance was not as stunning as Jiuyou, she was also a rare beauty. Coupled with her pure and ascetic aura, many people could not take their eyes off her.
Even the young man with kidney deficiency who was surrounded by beauties gave up on the people around him at this moment. His eyes emitted a jackal-like green light that was captivating.
"It's the same trick again..." Jiuyou muttered in a low voice, with a look of disdain.
"Isn't this normal? Beautiful women help these men empty their wallets more readily, so that they can bid recklessly. Isn't this the purpose of the auction?"
"If I were the boss behind this auction, I would arrange it the same way."
Liu Bai said leisurely with a smile on his face.
But there was only pure appreciation in his eyes. After all, people like to see beautiful things. As for being seduced by such means... To be honest, with a beauty of Jiuyou's level by his side, Liu Bai felt that his resistance to women was greatly enhanced.
Unless there is someone who can surpass Jiuyou in appearance or figure, it is basically impossible to shake him.
There are definitely people of the same level as Jiuyou in the entire universe, but it is really hard to find someone who can surpass her...
As the auctioneer came on stage, everyone fell silent. After all, beauty is great, but treasures are just as attractive.
"Dear guests, today's auction begins now. There are a total of 35 items for auction today. Please bring out the first item now. Please take a look..."
The woman looked alluring, but she did not use any seductive means. She announced the start of the auction very straightforwardly.
Soon, the first item was brought up, which was a red spear.
Although there was a halo of light protecting the spear, Liu Bai could still feel the explosive and destructive power coming from the spear.
