Chapter 119: Shroud!

~8 min read 1,515 words

Anyone could see that Lu Tianyu's bid had thoroughly angered this person, and he would surely face retaliation.

Tian Shiguang wore a playful smile on his face, looking at Lu Tianyu as if he were a fool.

He secretly thought that this kid was a troublemaker, hated by people wherever he went.

Seeing this, Luo Yingying immediately spoke up: "Seven hundred million Low-grade Spirit Stones, going once!"

"Seven hundred million Low-grade Spirit Stones, going twice!"

"Seven hundred million Low-grade Spirit Stones, going three times! Sold!"

"Congratulations to this gentleman!"

Lu Tianyu obtained the Nether Sacred Fruit and sat back down in his seat.

He could clearly feel that the middle-aged man in the green robe had his Divine Sense locked firmly onto him, without any restraint.

The intent was very clear: don't run, I'm watching you!

Lu Tianyu pondered secretly who the green-robed man could be.

Among the people he knew, there was no one with such a cold, gloomy aura.

Wait, practicing a Demon Art?

Could he be from the Nether Three Sects?

But his intuition told him no.

Forget it, no point in overthinking it.

Even if this person were arrogant, the chances of him making a move in Liguang City were slim.

But once outside Liguang City, he would definitely strike, so he just needed to be careful.

Just then, Luo Yingying's voice rang out: "Three great treasures, one has been snatched up by someone with a discerning eye, two remain!"

"The next item up for auction is."

She paused here, then said: "Swift Wind Thunder Wings!"

"Swift Wind Thunder Wings, a top-grade wind-attribute Dharma Treasure!"

"Whoever obtains this treasure can not only increase their flight speed tenfold, but also increase their own speed by threefold during combat!"

"Swift Wind Thunder Wings, starting price three hundred million Low-grade Spirit Stones, each increment must be no less than one hundred million, the auction begins, please place your bids!"

As soon as these words were spoken, the scene erupted in a stir. Their gazes were fiery, all focused on the tray held by the attendant.

It was a small object, thin as a cicada's wing and resembling the wings of a bat.

They knew that as long as they refined this item into their body, they could gain the blessing of the Swift Wind Thunder Wings and double their speed.

Top-grade Dharma Treasures were not easily put up for auction, especially wind-attribute ones like this, which were of great use to cultivators.

Everyone couldn't understand why the Liuli Sect was bringing out so many good things for this auction.

Just then, the middle-aged man in the green robe spoke again: "The Swift Wind Thunder Wings were originally the personal treasure of a cultivator from the Wind Spirit Thief Sect that vanished thousands of years ago."

"The Wind Spirit Thief Sect specialized in theft and was despised by everyone; later, they went too far and were jointly wiped out."

"It was rumored at the time that whoever obtained the Swift Wind Thunder Wings would inevitably be tainted by the Causality of the Wind Spirit Thief Sect; one should be cautious about obtaining this item!"

As soon as he said this, the scene was in an uproar once again.

"Is that the Wind Spirit Thief Sect that was once all the rage and rose to power so quickly?"

"That sect was detestable, practicing the Dao of Theft, stealing everything, and was despised by all."

"Indeed, back then, people of that sect were like rats crossing the street, shouted at by everyone, and eventually they disappeared without a trace."

"These Swift Wind Thunder Wings are indeed an ominous object; one must absolutely not bid for them, it's easy to bring disaster upon oneself!"

People in the bidding area shook their heads one after another.

Luo Yingying's face, however, was extremely ugly.

This person had not only disrupted the venue once, but this was the second time; was he deliberately going against the Liuli Sect?

If this continued, how was she supposed to auction off these Swift Wind Thunder Wings?

However, this person's aura was unclear, perhaps he was a powerful figure; daring to openly offend the Liuli Sect, he must have something to rely on.

Luo Yingying dared not offend him; after all, the Liuli Sect was too weak.

But just then, a familiar voice rang out: "Three hundred million Low-grade Spirit Stones!"

Luo Yingying's face showed surprise.

But upon seeing who it was, she was stunned!

It was this kid again!

The person bidding was none other than Lu Tianyu!

As far as he was concerned, the talk about the Swift Wind Thunder Wings being ominous and tainting one with Causality was not something he would consider at all.

As long as it could increase his strength, that was enough.

He was already being targeted by Tian Shiguang, the Liuli Sect, and the green-robed middle-aged man, so why worry about buying such a treasure?

Most importantly, Lu Tianyu had cultivated the Five Dragon Divine Fist and was about to unseal his dantian; he was in urgent need of a movement technique.

Before obtaining a suitable movement technique, these top-grade Swift Wind Thunder Wings were naturally a good treasure.

Seeing that it was Lu Tianyu bidding again, everyone immediately thought that Lu Tianyu must be buying this treasure to escape.

This person had offended the Glazed Sect, the Joyous Union Heaven Sect, and the green-robed middle-aged man all at once, so it was normal for him to gear up.

The green-robed middle-aged man looked at Lu Tianyu with a smile and said: "It's useless no matter what you buy; with a shattered dantian, you cannot use this item."

"However, it would make a pretty good shroud, hahahaha!"

He raised his voice and spoke without restraint, completely disregarding the many people present.

As soon as these words were spoken, a burst of laughter erupted at the scene.

"That's right, that's right, this kid has no Spiritual Power at all, so what's the difference between buying this and buying a shroud?"

"They bought it to use as a burial shroud; knowing they are bound to die, why wouldn't they buy a burial shroud for themselves?"

"Right, right, right. Since they can't take so many Spirit Stones with them after death, they might as well buy a burial shroud before dying. When they reach a dead end, they can commit suicide immediately, and then use this burial shroud—wouldn't that be perfect?"

Hahaha!

A burst of laughter suddenly erupted at the scene.

Tian Shiguang spoke coldly: "He won't be able to wrap his own corpse; he won't even leave behind any bones. Buying this cloth is just his way of showing off one last time!"

He looked at Lu Tianyu with a playful expression: "I wonder if I am right?"

Yet, facing so much mockery and ridicule, Lu Tianyu smiled faintly, turning a deaf ear to it all.

It is useless to bicker with you; you will know soon enough, just don't regret it when the time comes.

Seeing that Lu Tianyu completely ignored him, Tian Shiguang could not help but feel a bit disappointed.

He had the feeling of punching a ball of cotton.

At this moment, Luo Yingying spoke: "Three hundred million Low-grade Spirit Stones, going once!"

"Three hundred million Low-grade Spirit Stones, going twice!"

"Three hundred million Low-grade Spirit Stones, going three times!"

"Sold!"

After completing the transaction with Lu Tianyu, Luo Yingying took a Storage Ring from a maid: "Next is the final grand finale treasure!"

"Ghost Gate Thirteen Needles!"

Having said this, she paused.

A series of gasps erupted at the scene, and the crowd collectively drew a sharp breath.

"Ghost Gate Thirteen Needles? Isn't that the needle technique used by the Ghost Gate Medical Saint of the Ghost Doctor Sect tens of thousands of years ago, capable of bringing the dead back to life and regrowing flesh on bones?"

"How is that possible? Legend has it that the Ghost Doctor Sect disappeared along with the disappearance of the Ghost Gate Medical Saint, and the Ghost Gate Thirteen Needles naturally vanished with them. How could the Liuli Sect, a small sect, possibly obtain such a treasure and needle technique?"

"If one could master this needle technique, wouldn't they be even more formidable than the current Ghost Shen Xie Yi? Even if this item were auctioned at an auction of the Star Chamber of Commerce, it could serve as a grand finale treasure."

Everyone's breathing became rapid, their gazes burning with intensity, eager to try.

They were just waiting for Luo Yingying to set the price.

But just at this moment, a cold snort rang out: "What a bunch of ignorant fools!"

"The Ghost Doctor Sect is the Fallen Phoenix Sect, and the current Gui Sheng Xie Yi is the Ghost Gate Medical Saint you speak of."

"The Ghost Gate Thirteen Needles are indeed a treasure lost by Gui Sheng Xie Yi."

"However, how can you be certain that this is the Ghost Gate Thirteen Needles of Gui Sheng Xie Yi? Could it not be a fake?"
