Chapter 357 - 357 357 Blood Jade Bodhi

Chapter 357: Chapter 357 Blood Jade Bodhi Chapter 357: Chapter 357 Blood Jade Bodhi Easily helping the Zhang family through difficulties and acquiring the Immortal Tool Pavilion, Feng Wuchen felt extremely good and utterly exhilarated.

Moreover, Feng Wuchen also received the Zhang family’s artifact jade and the token of the Immortal Tool Pavilion, both of which were priceless treasures.

The artifact jade would allow Feng Wuchen to not worry about artifact refining materials, and even the materials for alchemy wouldn’t be a concern.

With the token of the Immortal Tool Pavilion and its prestige and status on the Mainland, the token was like a life-saving charm!

“Brother Feng, I never knew your artifact refining was so terrifying. You’re better than the number one artifact refining sect on the Mainland,” Liu Qingyang said in shock.

Not even twenty years old and already surpassing the realm of a Ninth Grade Refining Master, Liu Qingyang was unwilling to believe it, yet found himself unable to explain it away.

Sometimes Liu Qingyang felt that all of this was a dream, a very long dream that started the day he met Feng Wuchen and still hadn’t woken from it.

Zhang Junlan, on the other hand, didn’t feel like he was dreaming. He actually felt that Feng Wuchen didn’t seem like a youth under twenty years old with his incredible abilities; he felt more like one of those top experts from the hidden lands of the Mainland.

“It must be my imagination,” Zhang Junlan forcibly shook his head to not think about it.

“Zhang Junlan, what’s wrong with you?” Miao Qingqing asked, noticing Zhang Junlan’s distraction and feeling very curious.

Zhang Junlan shook his head vigorously and said somewhat frantically, “Nothing, nothing.”

Looking towards Feng Wuchen, Zhang Junlan said, “Teacher, not far ahead is Xingjie City where the auction is located, the biggest auction of Wuji Domain. Whatever materials you want, you should be able to find them there.”

Feng Wuchen nodded and said, “After buying the materials, let’s grab something to eat then head back to Jiuzhou.”

Feng Wuchen went to the auction to buy materials for refining the Seven Stars Primordial Spirit Pill, a very precious elixir, which were too scarce in Jiuzhou, but the biggest auction of Wuji Domain would definitely meet Feng Wuchen’s needs.

By refining the Seven Stars Primordial Spirit Pill, Feng Wuchen would be able to use the technique of dividing spirits to enhance his strength and help to increase the cultivation of his family and the people of Sky Pavilion.

Xingjie City was bustling and prosperous, gathering many strong people from the star realms.

In the city, there were numerous Tianyuan Realm experts, busy streets, and a constant stream of people.

“Junior Master Zhang!”

“Greetings to Junior Master Zhang!”

As they entered Xingjie City, the practitioners on the street greeted Zhang Junlan with respect.

The Zhang family was renowned throughout Wuji Domain. As the Mainland’s number one talented Artifact Refiner, Zhang Junlan was famous across the entire Mainland.

In Xingjie, Zhang Junlan’s reputation was known to everyone.

In contrast, nobody recognized Feng Wuchen and the others. Those who didn’t know any better thought they were Zhang Junlan’s attendants.

But if they were attendants, why would they be walking in front of Zhang Junlan?

“Being the Mainland’s number one talented Artifact Refiner is different after all, everyone recognizes you wherever you go,” Liu Qingyang said with a sigh, full of admiration.

“Ah, you don’t understand my pain,” Zhang Junlan said with a helpless bitter smile.

“Pain?” Miao Qingqing looked at Zhang Junlan with astonishment.

As the young master of the Zhang family and the Mainland’s number one talented Artifact Refiner, what pain could he possibly have?

A status many people dream of, yet Zhang Junlan spoke of pain.

“Junior Master Zhang!”

“Junior Master Zhang!”

As Miao Qingqing and Liu Qingyang looked on in bewilderment, a burst of cries from women suddenly came from the other end of the street.

“Here comes the pain!” Hearing the cries of the women, Zhang Junlan shuddered, turned and ran, meanwhile shouting, “Teacher, if you take the next left, you’ll see the auction house!”

Feng Wuchen and the others turned their heads to look towards the other end of the street, and instantly understood the nature of Zhang Junlan’s pain.

Dozens of young women of all shapes and appearances were sprinting towards them at an alarming speed, their momentum commanding the entire street.

The people on the streets hurriedly scurried out of the way in panic.

Feng Wuchen and his companions were stunned, quickly sidestepping to let them pass.

Ling Xiaoxiao and Miao Qingqing were left open-mouthed in shock.

“This…this is considered pain? This is what countless men dream of!” Liu Qingyang was utterly stunned, unable to help but swallow hard.

“Lucky guy,” Feng Wuchen also blinked blankly, genuinely surprised by the number of women pursuing Zhang Junlan, a fact that would make countless people envious.

“Brother Feng, let’s go. It’ll be a while before we can wait for him to come back,” Ling Xiaoxiao said with a laugh, covering her mouth, and with that laugh, she practically stole the souls of everyone on the street.

“Let’s go,” Feng Wuchen shook his head.

“I hope he can make it back safely,” Liu Qingyang said sympathetically.

As Zhang Junlan had directed, Feng Wuchen and his companions quickly arrived at the grandest auction of the Wuji Domain, the Wuji Auction House.

The Wuji Auction House was enormous, its palace buildings grand and imposing, and could be considered as one of the giants of the Wuji Domain.

“The four of you are welcome,” the guards of the auction house greeted them respectfully.

“As expected of the Wuji Domain auction house, as majestic as the Zhang family’s palaces, and there are even several auras of Heavenly Human Realm experts. A great power truly is extraordinary,” Liu Qingyang exclaimed in amazement.

The Wuji Domain’s auction was incredibly large, ten times the size of Jiuzhou’s auction house, and it gathered countless treasures from the entire Wuji Domain.

As long as you have money, whatever treasure you desire, the Wuji Domain has it.

Of course, for those treasures that gold coins can’t buy, it’s enough just to think about them.

Feng Wuchen and his three companions walked straight into the auction house, which was as crowded as a marketplace, teeming with strong individuals as numerous as the clouds.

A graceful and beautiful maid approached them with a respectful smile, “Welcome to the Wuji Auction House, what treasures might the four of you be interested in?”

“Help me prepare these medicinal ingredients. I need ten of each, thank you,” Feng Wuchen handed over a list with a polite smile.

The maid took the list, glanced at it briefly, and her beautiful eyes clearly became more respectful as she smiled, “Please wait a moment, I will prepare them for you.”

Just from the list of ingredients, the maid had guessed that Feng Wuchen was an Alchemist.

“Big Brother Feng, Zhang Junlan has run off for so long without coming back, he hasn’t been kidnapped, has he?” Liu Qingyang said with a smile that seemed to find joy in others’ misfortune, his gaze occasionally shifting toward the entrance of the auction house.

“Why? Does Big Brother Liu want to go help?” Miao Qingqing asked with a smile.

Seeing Miao Qingqing’s expression, Liu Qingyang was frightened into a cold sweat and chuckled, “How could that be?”

“Hmph!” Miao Qingqing glared fiercely at Liu Qingyang, scaring him into silence.

Before long, the maid came back with a Storage Ring and respectfully handed it to Feng Wuchen, saying, “These are the medicinal ingredients you requested, totaling thirteen million Gold Coins.”

“Thank you,” Feng Wuchen nodded, took the Storage Ring, and paid the Gold Coins.

As he paid the Gold Coins, Feng Wuchen inadvertently saw something and his gaze moved past the maid in front of him to look at something behind her, his expression somewhat surprised.

“Blood Jade Bodhi?” Feng Wuchen exclaimed in astonishment, spotting a Blood Jade Bodhi that looked like a ruby, encased in a crystal-clear treasure box on a shelf behind the maid!

Feng Wuchen had previously obtained a Blood Jade Bodhi from Ling Xiaoxiao, so he had a deep impression of it and could recognize it at a glance. Moreover, this one seemed much older than the one Ling Xiaoxiao had given him.

The Blood Jade Bodhi was a precious treasure nurtured by the tears of a Ninth Order Ice Flame Giant Python. Those with high years contained immense power, and they could even help someone in the Heavenly Human Realm improve their cultivation.

“It really is a Blood Jade Bodhi,” Ling Xiaoxiao also said in surprise.

“Young Master has good eyesight, this is the only Blood Jade Bodhi in the auction, a full fifty years old. It’s sufficient to help a Tianyuan Realm cultivator improve their level within a short period,” the maid said gleefully.

“Tianyuan Realm cultivators can improve a level?” Liu Qingyang’s eyes widened to their limits.

“How are you selling it?” Feng Wuchen eagerly asked, already having taken a liking to this Blood Jade Bodhi.

“If the Young Master wants it, I will go get the manager right now. I don’t have the authority to decide on this, please wait a moment,” the maid said respectfully.

“I appreciate it,” Feng Wuchen nodded, determined to win the Blood Jade Bodhi. How could he pass up such a treasure?

“Big Brother Feng, do you have enough money to buy it?” Liu Qingyang asked hesitantly.

“A few billion Gold Coins should be enough, right?” Feng Wuchen was unsure. A fifty-year-old Blood Jade Bodhi was a rare find and undoubtedly would cost a fortune.

“Several billion…” Liu Qingyang looked resigned.

Feng Wuchen thought to himself, “The cultivation level of Father should be close to reaching the Seventh Layer of the Yuandan Realm; with this Blood Jade Bodhi, once the violent energy is neutralized, it should help Father break through to the Tianyuan Realm, especially with the Demon Blood Vermilion Fruit.”

Before long, an excited middle-aged man ran over, in his thirties or forties, thrilled to hear that someone wanted to buy the Blood Jade Bodhi, so excited he seemed about to leap into the sky.

The man was Wu Yu Mountain, the manager of the auction house, whose cultivation had reached the Ninth Level of the Tianyuan Realm.

“Manager Wu, this Young Master is interested in the Blood Jade Bodhi,” the maid introduced Wu Yu Mountain.

With a polite fist salute, Wu Yu Mountain smiled, “Young friend, I am the manager of the auction house. May I ask if you are sure you want to buy the Blood Jade Bodhi?”

“Name your price,” Feng Wuchen said straightforwardly.

Wu Yu Mountain became even more excited and smiled, “Little brother, this Blood Jade Bodhi is the last one in the auction, a full fifty years old. The auction house has set the price at seventy billion Gold Coins.”

“Seventy billion?” Liu Qingyang’s eyes almost popped out.

Startled by the astronomical figure, Feng Wuchen froze, but remembering the Earth Heart Sacred Lotus from the Jiuzhou auction house valued at fifty billion, he soon reassured himself.

Seeing Feng Wuchen’s stunned expression, Wu Yu Mountain’s face subtly changed.

Feng Wuchen couldn’t produce seventy billion Gold Coins.

Even Ling Xiaoxiao wouldn’t carry that much Gold Coins on her person.

“I’ll trade it for a bit of the Earth Heart Sacred Lotus,” Feng Wuchen secretly decided.

After deciding, Feng Wuchen spoke up, “Manager Wu, I’ll take the Blood Jade Bodhi!”

Right then, a guard hurried over, whispering a few words into Wu Yu Mountain’s ear. Wu Yu Mountain then said, “Young friend, please wait a moment, I have to greet a distinguished guest first.”

“I’m in no rush,” Feng Wuchen nodded. It was common for the auction house to have distinguished guests, and he understood.

It didn’t take long for Wu Yu Mountain to return.

“Young friend, I’m truly sorry. The Blood Jade Bodhi has already been reserved by another distinguished guest. Why don’t you look at other treasures?” Wu Yu Mountain smiled faintly, his insincerity not visible.

“Other distinguished guests have reserved it?” Miao Qingqing said, puzzled.

Liu Qingyang frowned and asked sternly, “Manager Wu, you never mentioned a reservation before. We decided to buy the Blood Jade Bodhi first, and now you say someone else reserved it—what do you mean by this?”
