The Zhao Clan was an ancient clan. Whether in terms of capabilities or wealth, they were the top of the East Domain.
Furthermore, this man was the strongest descendant of the previous generation of the Zhao Clan. His family must be very well-off.
Therefore, Ling Xian couldn't help but have high expectations. After he probed with his Qi, he realized that he had underestimated this person's wealth.
There were no spiritual stones, spiritual medicines, or other miscellaneous items. There were only heavenly materials that were pulsating with extraordinary energy.
Essence of the Earth, Blue Sea Stone, Heavenly Eye Stone, Jade of Crystal Ice … all sorts of heavenly materials were placed there.
Without an exception, they were all top-notch materials that could be used to craft treasures. Every single one of them was priceless and rare.
There was even a fist-sized Stone of Phoenix's Blood!
It was swirling with fire and was spitting out heavenly light. There was a small silhouette of a phoenix that was flapping its wings on top of the stone. It looked very mysterious and extraordinary, extremely mystical.
This made Ling Xian's already heated eyes even more heated.
The Stone of Phoenix's Blood!
This was one of the highest quality stones. It was a treasure that any craftsman would want. When crafting a weapon, a fingernail-sized piece could increase the quality of the weapon by several levels. Its value was immeasurable!
"It is no wonder you are the strongest descendant of the Zhao Clan. You sure are wealthy."
The corner of Ling Xian's lips curled up and he revealed a satisfied smile. Ignoring the fact that the Stone of Phoenix's Blood was priceless, the other heavenly materials alone were shocking enough.
Therefore, he was very satisfied.
"That's right. If everyone who comes looking for trouble with me is as well-off as this person, then I'll make a huge profit."
Ling Xian smiled in satisfaction. He suddenly had high expectations for the Zhao Clan to come looking for trouble again and then gift him with an impressive amount of wealth.
Of course, he knew that wasn't realistic. After all, not everyone was like this man, whose family background was so rich that even he was somewhat speechless.
But now, all the wealth this man has accumulated over hundreds of years is now his.
"This person sure is interesting. There is nothing else in his storage pouch but all sorts of heavenly materials."
Ling Xian softly grinned and scanned the pouch with his Qi. Other than all sorts of valuable crafting materials, there was nothing else.
However, these were enough. One must know that materials were hard currency in the Immortal Cultivation World. No matter where he went, it was very useful. If he wanted to exchange materials for Spirit Stones, any shop would do it for him.
"This person is either a refiner or a collector. He likes to collect all kinds of precious materials."
Ling Xian shook his head with a smile. He decided not to inspect them one by one. After all, they were all valuable materials. However, just as he was about to withdraw his Divine Soul, he found a golden invitation in the corner.
This made him frown, and he took out the invitation card.
The invitation was glowing with the light of a treasure. It was made of the highest grade of spirit paper and looked extraordinary. In the lower right corner of the invitation, there were four small black words.
Million Treasures Chamber of Commerce.
"An invitation from the Merchant House?" Ling Xian's interest was piqued. He opened the invitation and looked at it.
The general content was that the Myriad Treasures Chamber of Commerce would hold an auction in two months and invited the man to participate.
This made Ling Xian chuckle, feeling very bored.
However, when he saw the auction list, his eyes turned heated.
The Crown of the Seven Treasures, the Eternal Dan, the Chilled Jade Bed … one after another, famous names flashed across his eyes. Every time he saw one, the heat in his eyes intensified.
This was all because he had heard of the names of all the treasures on the list. Without exception, all of them were legendary treasures!
"The capability of the Myriad Treasures Chamber of Commerce cannot be underestimated. They even have treasures of this level and they are willing to auction them off."
Ling Xian's eyes revealed his shock. He didn't think this auction would have such high standards.
To know that any one of the treasures on the list was enough to create a bloody storm. Yet, this auction had managed to gather so many rare treasures. Just how strong must one be to be able to do this?
"The Chamber of Commerce … interesting."
The corner of Ling Xian's lips curled up, feeling a little interested. As he continued to read, a familiar name came into view, and he instantly made the decision to go there.
Because that name was the Lock of Eternity.
The Lock of Eternity that sealed Gong Suo Xin's talent and forced her to stay at the foundational level for the rest of her life!
Therefore, the moment he saw those words, Ling Xian's eyes exploded with color and he made up his mind.
Go!
He had to go!
Gong Suo Xin loved him deeply. She also gave him half of the Lake of the Resting Soul despite all the pressure. How big of a favor was that?
Now that Ling Xian had finally found a clue about the Lock of Eternity, of course he had to go check it out. No matter what the result was, he had to go.
"The Chamber of Commerce is in the central plains. It is on my way."
Ling Xian softly grinned and put away the invitation and storage pouch. He then walked towards Feng Jiu Ge, who was resting her eyes.
Sensing his approach, Feng Jiu Ge opened her eyes. They were no longer dim and some color had returned.
"How do you feel?" Ling Xian asked with concern.
"I feel much better. Master, your alchemy skills have improved a lot."
Feng Jiu Ge straightened her body, her face was somewhat worried, "Master, those people just now were here for revenge."
"Don't worry. They were merely enemies."
Ling Xian brandished his hand, "Though the opponents were very strong, I am not weak either. Don't worry."
"I have always been confident in you." Feng Jiu Ge smiled gently.
"Then let's go to the central plains."
Ling Xian softly grinned. Staring into the sky, his eyes flickered with anticipation.
He was anticipating the Lock of Eternity and the upcoming Heaven's Favorite Competition.
"Okay."
Feng Jiu Ge nodded obediently. She transformed into her original form and leaped into the air.
Seeing this, Ling Xian leaped up and hopped onto the phoenix's back.
Whooosh!
Following an air-piercing noise, Feng Jiu Ge extended her wings and carried Ling Xian across the sky towards the central plains.
…..
Tianzhou was extremely vast and was divided into five parts. Every single part was the size of Yunzhou.
Out of all of them, the central plains was the largest.
This was the richest land in Tianzhou. Whether it was in terms of minerals or spiritual energy, it far surpassed the other regions.
In other words, this was the most prosperous place in Tianzhou.
Especially after the Palace of Heaven's Favorites announced that they were hosting a never-before-seen Heaven's Favorite Competition, the central plains became even livelier.
Countless people came to watch. Heaven's Favorites who wanted to participate in the competition came. Even those who wanted to enter Tianzhou but didn't have the connections to do so came.
This directly caused the population of the central plains to increase exponentially. The central plains were now filled to the brim.
However, to some merchant houses, this was a great opportunity to make money. Because the more people there are, the more demand there is.
Therefore, many merchant houses took this opportunity to hold auctions in hopes of making a fortune.
Out of all the auctions, the Auction of a Thousand was without a doubt, the most eye-catching and the most anticipated one.
Just by looking at the list of auctions that were open to the public, anyone's heart would waver.
Ling Xian was no exception.
Therefore, he and Feng Jiu Ge traveled for two months and finally arrived at the Auction of a Thousand before the auction began.
