Chapter 263

The first is that Jin Fu Daoist has been hiding his strength from the very beginning.

The so-called curse back then was also something he deliberately revealed to him.

But why would he do that?

Although he suspected Jin Fu Daoist had secrets, this first possibility was still relatively small.

Then, only the second possibility remains.

Jin Fu Daoist possesses a true Chaos Supreme Treasure.

One capable of resisting all means of investigation.

Even his Great Fate Art and Great Causality Art were helpless.

After all, no matter how remarkable the divine ability is, as the user, Hongxuan's cultivation realm is too low; that is a fact.

Even a Saint might not be able to do it using divine abilities.

Only the Heavenly Dao realm might have a sliver of possibility.

Ultimately, the reason hindering him from knowing the truth is still just one: insufficient strength.

"Daoist friend, do you recognize this magic treasure?"

Hongxuan waved his right hand.

The next moment, an image of the Time Treasure Mirror floated in mid-air.

He even simulated thirty percent of the aura it radiated.

Hongxuan was also gambling here.

Gambling that Jin Fu Daoist would not develop a covetous heart for this supreme treasure.

After all, Jin Fu Daoist didn't care about the Causality Jade Tablet or the Causality Wheel back then.

He probably felt the same about the Time Treasure Mirror.

If Jin Fu Daoist really had a plan, it must be something far more precious than a Chaos Supreme Treasure.

"Congratulations, Daoist Brother, for obtaining even this Time Supreme Treasure!"

"Daoist Brother's cultivation talent makes me incredibly envious, but now it seems that what I should envy even more is Daoist Brother's heaven-startling fortune!"

"In the entire Primordial World, no one can be mentioned in the same breath as Daoist Brother."

"Even that person from the Zixiao Palace in the past is far inferior!"

Jin Fu Daoist shook his head, his eyes full of envy as he looked at Hongxuan.

Hongxuan did not miss a single trace of change in Jin Fu Daoist's expression.

But from beginning to end, he didn't see any trace of longing or even greed from the other party.

This is completely inconsistent with human nature!

Never mind the Primordial Saints; even Dao Ancestor Hongjun would probably want to snatch it if he saw it.

Yet Jin Fu Daoist did not.

Sure enough, it was just as he had expected.

"Oh? Daoist friend, do you recognize this magic treasure?"

Jin Fu Daoist smiled faintly and said nothing.

He didn't fall for it and answer Hongxuan's question.

"The time aura on this magic treasure in the image is so clear; one understands it with just a glance!"

"Unfortunately, this treasure does not align with my Great Dao; otherwise, I would really like to borrow it to contemplate!"

Hongxuan laughed, his expression noncommittal.

"Daoist friend, do you think there exists a space-type magic treasure of the same grade as this one in the Primordial World?"

A brilliant light flared in Jin Fu Daoist's eyes.

"Does Daoist Brother want to contemplate the Law of Time and the Law of Space simultaneously, so that in the future they can merge and transform into the Rules of Space-Time?"

"Correct. Daoist friend is knowledgeable; perhaps you have clues in this regard. I wonder if this question is also a secret that cannot be answered?"

"Hmm, I can tell Daoist Brother this: in the Primordial World, there indeed exists a space-type supreme treasure of the same grade!"

"However, as for exactly where it is, that depends on Daoist Brother's own opportunity."

"Sigh, with my luck that is unlucky from time to time, I am destined to have no connection with it. On the contrary, Daoist Brother has amazing luck and deep fortune; you have a great chance of succeeding!"

Between Hongxuan and Jin Fu Daoist, a certain tacit understanding seems to have formed.

As long as it is not inquiring about the true secrets of the Primordial World, Jin Fu Daoist can still tell him some information, more or less.

Of course, not too much.

Just a vague concept.

But even so, for Hongxuan, it was already very good.

Just such a concept is enough.

As long as Hongxuan confirms a certain direction, he can keep pursuing it.

It doesn't count for much in Jin Fu Daoist's eyes.

But Hongxuan must accept this huge favor.

A space-type Chaos Supreme Treasure really exists!

If he can obtain it, the Rules of Space-Time will be within reach in the future.

"Jin Fu Daoist friend, are there any existences in the Primordial World at the same level as the Dao Ancestor of Zixiao Palace?"

"Haha, Daoist Brother, I am merely a Quasi-Saint; how could I possibly know about these things? Daoist Brother is probably asking the wrong person!"

"Understood. Thank you for the information just now, Daoist friend!"

"I have important matters to attend to, so I will take my leave first!"

"Wait a moment, Daoist Brother. I have a matter to discuss with you!"

"Oh? I wonder what it is?"

"The development of the Eternal Market is now stable. If we want to expand our influence again, we need to do one thing!"

"What thing?"

"I plan to hold an auction within the Eternal Market!"

"We will auction off some rare items that ordinary cultivators have never seen, such as magic treasures, elixirs, or spiritual roots."

"Daoist friend, feel free to handle this yourself. You are more adept at how the Eternal Market should develop than I am; I will not interfere arbitrarily!"

An auction?

Hongxuan is far too familiar with this.

He was still wondering before why there hadn't been such a thing in the market for so many years.

So Jin Fu Daoist hadn't held one yet!

"Do you need any grand finale auction items?"

"Rest assured, Daoist Brother, I will prepare those myself!"

"However, when the auction begins, I hope Daoist Brother can also be present. After all, it is the first time, and it is inevitable that some blind people will appear. It is necessary to have Daoist Brother suppress them and show the majesty of the market!"

"When will it be held?"

"Ten thousand years from now! From now on, a small auction will be held every ten thousand years, a medium auction every one hundred thousand years, and a large auction every million years!"

"Oh? Interesting. So ten thousand years from now will be a large auction?"

"No, it is neither small nor large, but a medium auction!"

Hongxuan doesn't understand why Jin Fu Daoist is doing this, but he doesn't object either.

Jin Fu Daoist cultivates the Great Dao of Transaction, so he naturally knows what will be most effective for him.

In front of a professional, he had better not interfere too much.

"Alright, I will be there ten thousand years from now!"

Hongxuan nodded and then disappeared without a trace.

It just so happens that he plans to break through his realm during this ten-thousand-year free time.

He has already fully contemplated the Law of Time to perfection.

If he doesn't break through now, his Great Dao might no longer be based on the Law of Fate, but instead turn to be based on the Law of Time.

Although the Law of Time is also good, it is completely contrary to the plan he had already made.

This is not the result Hongxuan wants.

Thus, it is better to quickly stabilize his foundation.

Currently, he must advance to the late-stage Quasi-Saint realm as soon as possible.
