Chapter 278: Chapter 279: Spend Money When You Have It (2nd Update) (Request for Favorites, Rewards, and Recommendations)

"Pavilion Master Lu, what is the biggest auction in this Nine Tripods Ancient City?"

Chu Fengmian suddenly asked.

Now that he had wealth, it was natural for him to spend it. Holding these Nine Tripods Pills without using them was pointless. It would be better to spend them on items that could enhance his strength.

Unlike the Wusheng Kingdom, the Qinhuang Kingdom was extremely prosperous, with a certain reputation among the Nine Domains. The Nine Tripods Ancient City was the largest commercial center in dozens of surrounding nations.

The items Chu Fengmian needed, though precious, could still possibly be found in the Nine Tripods Ancient City if he was willing to look for them. He might indeed find some of them.

He had just broken through to the Riding Wind Realm and needed to boost his strength urgently.

Right now, Chu Fengmian’s strength at best could contend only with Saints at the third or fourth tier of Divine Power Realm.

But now, not just in the Qinhuang Kingdom, even in the small Wusheng Kingdom, there were hidden old antiques at the peak of the Divine Power Realm.

If any of these old antiques decided to fight Chu Fengmian with all their might, regardless of life and death, they might indeed have the potential to kill him.

Therefore, Chu Fengmian must increase his strength as quickly as possible. It was the only complete strategy to ensure that he could escape unscathed from the hands of those old antiques.

"Mr. Chu, what do you need to buy? Our Twilight Pavilion also has some treasures. If Mr. Chu is interested, you could come and have a look."

Hearing Chu Fengmian’s words, Lu Qingshan smiled and said. Chu Fengmian exchanging such a large batch of medicines naturally meant he had some items to buy.

If he could do business with Chu Fengmian, their relationship could become closer.

"The things I need..."

Chu Fengmian pondered for a moment, and suddenly a stream of Spiritual Power materialized before him, densely inscribed with dozens of names.

These names included materials, Demon Cores, as well as various Spiritual Medicines and pills, all presented before Lu Qingshan.

"Dragon Birth Grass, Nine Heavens Breathing Soil, Demon God’s Essence Blood..."

As Lu Qingshan scanned the list of names, his expression turned grave. Each name represented extremely precious items.

The Dragon Birth Grass was a type of Spiritual Medicine only growing in the ancestral lairs of the true dragon kin. While it ranked as an earthly tier, its value was comparable to that of heavenly tier Spiritual Medicines.

Only someone of significant strength could extract Spiritual Medicines from the lairs of the true dragons; it was nearly as hard as reaching the heavens.

The Nine Heavens Breathing Soil was said to be dirt born from the chaos at the beginning of Heaven Creation, containing Chaotic Power, practically an object of legend.

The Demon God’s Essence Blood was the true blood of a demon race’s Demon God, immensely powerful beings who were even stronger than Saints. Their blood was unimaginably precious.

The rest of the names were no easier to find, each a priceless treasure. Even with wealth, one might not be able to purchase them.

"Do you mean to say, Twilight Pavilion doesn’t have any of these items?"

Chu Fengmian frowned. It stood to reason that a power like Twilight Pavilion should at least have some of these items.

Even a branch should be able to procure some of them, as these were not the truly exorbitantly prized items.

The genuinely excessively valuable items weren’t on this list because Chu Fengmian knew they could definitely not be found in the Nine Tripods Ancient City.

"Among these, the Celestial Yan Xuan Crystal, Earth Xuan Metal Essence—our Twilight Pavilion has these two."

Lu Qingshan spoke.

"Originally, our Twilight Pavilion also had a millennium Dragon Blood Grass, but just yesterday, it was bought by the second young master of the Zhao family."

The first two items were what Chu Fengmian planned to purchase in order to refine his Red Flame Sword anew, since its current grade was indeed too low.

With Chu Fengmian’s current strength, a spiritual artifact of lower heavenly tier was something he could fully control, so he decided to reforge the Red Flame Sword and was now here to buy some materials.

However, his eyes lit up when he heard about the Thousand Year Dragon Blood Grass.

This millennium Dragon Blood Grass was said to be a kind of spiritual medicine that grew in the land where dragons fell, absorbing dragon blood. For ordinary martial artists, it could redefine Spirit Vein and enhance one’s physique.

But for Chu Fengmian, with his Battle Dragon Technique, he could completely extract the spiritual power from the Thousand Year Dragon Blood Grass, and even use it to condense the essence of ancient war dragon blood. It was of great use to Chu Fengmian.

However, the Thousand Year Dragon Blood Grass had been bought by someone else, which was quite a pity.

"Skyfire Mysterious Crystal, Earthly Mysterious Gold Essence, I’ve bought them, what’s the price?"

Chu Fengmian’s expression remained unchanged as he calmly spoke.

"Both of these materials belong to the earthly grade, let’s make it seventy million Nine Tripods Pills in total."

Lu Qingshan thought for a moment and quoted the price.

"Bought!"

Chu Fengmian didn’t waste any time and directly spoke up.

These two materials were the main materials for reforging the Red Flame Sword. Although their grade wasn’t high, they were still rare in the Nine Tripods Ancient City.

To avoid them being bought by others, Chu Fengmian naturally purchased them outright.

"Alright, Qian Ya, go get those two materials."

Lu Qingshan said to Qian Ya by his side, while Chu Fengmian also took out seventy million Nine Tripods Pills and handed them to Lu Qingshan.

Soon, Qian Ya came over, carrying two stones. One of the stones was burning with raging flames, while the other appeared incredibly heavy.

"Good, these are the right two materials."

Chu Fengmian’s mind stirred, and he took the two materials, placing them into his spatial ring.

"Tonight there will be the largest auction in Nine Tripods City, and Mr. Chu might find what he needs there. Some of the items being auctioned today are just what Mr. Chu requires," said Lu Qingshan, smiling at Chu Fengmian.

"Mr. Chu, come to Twilight Pavilion tonight and go with Qian Ya. She is very familiar with the Nine Tripods Ancient City and can offer you some assistance."

"Alright."

Chu Fengmian nodded.

He knew Lu Qingshan was trying to cozy up to him, but Chu Fengmian didn’t refuse.

Being unfamiliar with Nine Tripods Ancient City and lacking assistance, he wouldn’t even be able to find the auction, let alone attend it.

"By the way, if Mr. Chu has some time now, he might want to take a look at the Strange Treasures Pavilion. There are many curious and bizarre things there that might be of interest to Mr. Chu."

As Chu Fengmian was about to turn around and leave, Lu Qingshan suddenly spoke up.

"Oh? Strange Treasures Pavilion? That might be worth a look."

Chu Fengmian walked out of Twilight Pavilion and followed the direction Lu Qingshan had pointed, heading towards the Strange Treasures Pavilion.

The Strange Treasures Pavilion was located in the central part of Nine Tripods Ancient City, a vast courtyard. As soon as Chu Fengmian arrived at the entrance of the Strange Treasures Pavilion, he saw that many people were gathered there.
