"How could I have so many Green Coins? I can give you this middle-grade Dao Artefact Mask, plus a low-grade Dao Artefact Long Sword, and then give you a billion Green Coins. These are the most I can take out ….." The old man spoke while his eyes stared at the Fire Origin Crystal in Ning Cheng's hand.
Ning Cheng, on the other hand, was pleasantly surprised. He had never thought that a Fire Origin Crystal would be this precious. After he obtained the Fire Origin Bead, he didn't care about the Fire Origin Crystal because he didn't have a Fire Spirit Root. Now that this old man attached so much importance to it, Ning Cheng felt that he had underestimated this Fire Origin Crystal.
Ning Cheng raised the Origin Crystal in his hand and spoke, "A middle-grade Dao Artefact Mask, plus a low-grade Dao Artefact long spear, plus 5 billion green coins. By the way, I'm still missing two low-grade Dao Artifact Rings. If it's okay, then it's a deal. If it's not, then I'll take this Origin Crystal to auction. "
These two Low-Grade Dao Artefact Rings were all for Shi Yulan and Lan Ya.
"Yes, you can ….." The old man couldn't wait to call out, "I just happen to have a Treasured Thunder Spear, I'll give it to you."
As he spoke, a dull spear appeared in his hand. The spear looked very majestic, but it did not have any spirituality. Ning Cheng didn't care about it. Being able to exchange a Fire Origin Crystal for so many things already made him happy.

Orchid Borough's Premier Merchant House. Whether it was day or night, there was no shortage of cultivators buying magic weapons. That was because it contained the best weapons, the most advanced battleships, and the most complete equipment in the Orchid Borough Celestial River.
However, compared to the daytime, there were fewer people at night. Now that it was almost daybreak, there were fewer and fewer people around.
At this time, a rough-looking youth walked into the merchant house. This youth had a weathered face and an unshaven beard. At a glance, one could tell that he was the kind of person who wandered the starry sky all year round.
This was none other than Ning Cheng wearing a Mask Type Artefact, even if it was someone familiar with Ning Cheng, it would be impossible for them to recognise that this was Ning Cheng.
"Friend, what would you like to purchase?" The shop assistant walked up to Ning Cheng with a smile on his face. He knew that cultivators like Ning Cheng, who wandered the starry sky, were the most refreshing and the most difficult to deal with.
"I want a Void Battleship, one that is fast and has a strong combat capability." Ning Cheng spoke with a hoarse voice.
"Friend, please follow me." The shop assistant brought Ning Cheng to a huge hall filled with all kinds of Void Battleships.
Ning Cheng did not understand anything about battleships, so he spoke up, "I want a Celestial River-class battleship. Moreover, I want the kind that comes from a real technological planet. It would be best if it has a Flowing Sky Cannon."
The shop assistant looked a little depressed as he spoke up, "Celestial River-class Battleships equipped with Flowing Sky Cannons are currently not available for sale in the Orchid Borough Star. Perhaps this friend can go to the auction that will be held tomorrow to take a look. The prices there are not low."
From the looks of it, Ning Cheng's cultivation did not seem to be very high. Moreover, the shop assistant's last sentence implied that if one wanted to purchase a high-level starry skies' battleship, one would need to have enough celestial coins. At the auction, the price of the same item would increase by at least ten to twenty percent, not to mention the rarer Celestial River-class Battleships.
Ning Cheng did not care about the words of the shop assistant, he suddenly remembered the brochure of the auction that he had obtained, as he hurriedly said goodbye to the shop assistant, and quickly left the Orchid Borough's Premier Merchant House.
…
Inside the Bright Gist Resting Pen, Lan Ya and Shi Yulan sat across from each other. The two of them had no rings, no weapons, and no Celestial Coins. Even if they wanted to go out, they had no way to do so.
"Ning Cheng said that he would come ….." Shi Yulan spoke with some difficulty. If there was a way, she really did not want to stay in this place.
Lan Ya gave out a sigh and spoke, "The last time I was also clean, Ning Cheng ended up giving me a ring. I didn't expect it to be the same this time, alas. "
"What happened the last time?" Shi Yulan unexpectedly still had the mood to ask about this.
"The last time I stimulated the Raging Flames in the Void, I almost got burned to death … No, it's not that, it was because I accidentally entered the Bright Void Gorge … Also, it was not because of the Bright Void Gorge. My ring really did get burned by the Raging Flames in the Void ….." Lan Ya did not want to talk about these things; after all, she was in a very sorry state at that time, which made it a bit confusing.
Shi Yulan looked at Lan Ya in amazement, "Senior Apprentice Sister Lan Ya, do you mean that your clothes got burned, and then ….."
Lan Ya's face turned slightly red, "Wandering the starry skies, it's nothing much. Moreover, my clothes did not get burned, I still have a good set of inner armour ….. "
Lan Ya felt her tone turn a bit pale. A good set of inner armour, to put it bluntly, was just a good set of undergarments.
The Restriction at the door shook, which made Lan Ya feel relieved. She did not want to continue talking about this shameful thing.
"Wuming? Come in. "After Lan Ya called out, she subconsciously glanced at Shi Yulan. She already knew about Jing Wuming and Shi Yulan's matters. These two people could be said to be two tragedies; as such, she could not say anything more.
Jing Wuming's face turned a bit pale, but he shook his head and spoke, "I'm not going in. There are two rings here, one for each of you."
After saying that, he stuffed the ring into Lan Ya's hand.
"I don't want mine, you can take it back. I owe you a lot, and I don't want to owe you anymore. "Shi Yulan's voice sounded very calm.
Jing Wuming did not take back the ring, "You don't owe me, and I don't owe you anything. That unfilial Jing Hao is already dead, and from now on, only Jing Wuming will exist. These two rings were not given by me, but by Xiaocheng's people. Xiaocheng is very busy and has no time. "
After Jing Wuming finished, he turned around and left, not staying for a moment longer.
Shi Yulan stared at Jing Wuming's back and did not move for a long time.
Lan Ya understood why Ning Cheng asked Jing Wuming to deliver the rings. Ning Cheng wanted Jing Wuming and Shi Yulan to talk for a while; however, Ning Cheng's idea obviously fell through.
She put a ring in Shi Yulan's hand and pulled Shi Yulan back, "You don't have to think about the past. There is no right or wrong in this matter."
… …
After Ning Cheng handed the two rings to Jing Wuming, he returned to his room and immediately took out the Treasured Thunder Spear to refine it. Although his Nirvana Spear was good, it could not play its full role. After all, it was still a raw material.
The Treasured Thunder Spear was a low-grade Dao Artefact; moreover, it was a thunder-attributed weapon. With Ning Cheng's current cultivation, it was just enough for him to use.
After the Treasured Thunder Spear was refined, Ning Cheng grabbed it in his hand and immediately felt a trace of spirituality. A faint thunder glow surrounded the spear's handle, which made Ning Cheng feel very satisfied. He had not spent the Fire Origin Crystal in vain. Moreover, the things he obtained from it were all useful.
Ruan Mingshu's room and Ning Cheng's room happened to be facing each other. She had just walked out of her room when she saw a faint thunder glow flickering inside the restriction covering Ning Cheng's room. She felt shocked in her heart, did Ning Cheng have a thunder-attributed Spiritual Root? Thunder-Attributed Spiritual Roots were very rare; if he fell, it would truly be a pity.
But soon she shook her head. The number of geniuses that fell in the endless starry skies far exceeded the hundreds of millions. Not to mention Ning Cheng, even she, Ruan Mingshu, could not control her own destiny. Unless one day, she could cultivate to a level where she needed others to look up to her.
When Ruan Mingshu's Spiritual Consciousness fell on the restriction covering the door, Ning Cheng immediately felt it and put away the Treasured Thunder Spear. He had always been a little wary of Ruan Mingshu. This woman treated him too well. If it was just because of a cooperative relationship, it made him very suspicious.
After Ning Cheng refined the Treasured Thunder Spear, he also planned to go out. Of course, the place he wanted to go to was the auction. Yesterday, he had gone to the Slave Market Auction; today, he wanted to go to the large-scale auction hosted by the Orchid Borough Celestial River. One could imagine that with so many Celestial Lords and talented cultivators gathered in the Orchid Borough Celestial River, such an auction would definitely not be small.
Ning Cheng wanted to go to the auction for one thing, the Amethyst Heaven Mysterious Crystal.
The Amethyst Heaven Mysterious Crystal was something he needed to advance to the Twin Radiant Heavenly Cloud Leaves, which was Ning Cheng's Twin Wings of the Heavenly Clouds. According to Ning Cheng's previous understanding, every time the Twin Radiant Heavenly Cloud Leaves advanced to the next level, it would produce an additional pair of glowing lights. Currently, his Twin Wings of the Heavenly Clouds already had two pairs of glowing lights. If he added another pair, the speed of the Twin Wings of the Heavenly Clouds would definitely increase.
It was precisely because he saw the Amethyst Heaven Mysterious Crystal that Ning Cheng spent 100 Blue Coins to purchase the brochure for the auction items. Now that he heard that the auction also contained a real Celestial River Battleship, he wanted to go and have a look.
… …
This was already the third large-scale auction held by the Revolving Jade City in the past month, and it certainly would not be the last one. The reason for this was naturally because the Revolving Jade City had gathered all the rich people of the entire Celestial River, as well as the various treasures of the entire Celestial River.
Ning Cheng could not get a private room, not because he did not have the money, but because his identity was not high enough. However, Ning Cheng did not care about this. The scale of this auction was much bigger compared to the slave auction that he had attended yesterday. Each guest had an isolated space. If the Isolation Restriction of this space was activated, then other people's Spiritual Consciousness would not be able to sweep in. It was equivalent to a small private room.
However, few people would choose to isolate their seats. It was as if they were trying to hide their identity. Even if you bid at the auction, no one would know who you were. Everyone who participated in the auction had a unique serial number, which only they would know.
Moreover, there was no need for them to shout out their bids, as long as they entered the price they wanted to bid in front of their seat. As long as your bid was the highest, everyone would be able to see it on the huge Array Formation Monitoring Screen. Even if the bid was successful, no one would send the item to you. It was just that after the transaction was completed, the item would automatically be sent to you.
Ning Cheng's identity to participate in the auction was that of a starry skies' wanderer with a face full of stubble. He did not isolate his seat, and no one here knew who he was.
The auction had not yet begun, but Ning Cheng's Spiritual Consciousness noticed that Ruan Mingshu had also arrived. In addition to her, the sharp-chinned Celestial Lord Miao Pu also appeared.
After waiting for an incense stick worth of time, a female cultivator dressed in formal attire walked onto the main stage of the auction house. This female cultivator first bowed to the audience before speaking, "I will be presiding over this auction. I am Deacon Yu Ni of the Celestial Path Chamber of Commerce. I hope that everyone will be satisfied with the various treasures for sale. The first treasure for sale is a beast egg of a starry skies' Thousand Split Violent Ape. The base price is 1 million Green Coins, and each bid increment must not be lower than 100,000 Green Coins. Start the bidding now. "
