Chapter 187 – The Grand Auction
Since Long Yu and Liu Yuan couldn’t decide which one of them should keep the lunar tablet and comprehend the lunar principle, they decided to stay together for the time being.
They soon left the Hantan snow valley in search of shelter from the heavy rain. After searching for some time, they finally found a cave where they could take rest and comprehend the lunar principle.
As they had been starving for two days, before entering the cave, Long Yu caught two hares and used the power of his thunder charm to roast them.
With their bodies completely drenched in the rain, Long Yu and Liu Yuan entered the cave and sat down to comprehend the lunar principle.
As immense cold and the sound of thunderclaps kept distracting Long Yu, he stood up and walked out of the cave for a while, leaving Liu Yuan practicing alone inside the cave.
“So many thunder mines…”
As Long Yu looked on, he found that the mountains had turned bluish while several thunder mines flashed violently above them.
“Shouldn’t I quench my body with these thunder mines and try to comprehend the thunder domain?”
Long Yu knew what he had to do now.
He flapped his lunar wings and within a moment or two, he glided in the rainstorm to reach the highest mountain peak which happened to touch the layer of the clouds.
The layer of the clouds was full of thunder mines!
“Thunder charm!”
As Long Yu released his thunder charm, soon, all the thunder mines gathered around him and shot towards his body.
Although Long Yu had not activated his nine hidden dragon mark this time, he didn’t receive any injuries while absorbing the thunder mines because these thunder mines were far weaker in strength than the ones that were present in the Heavenly Thunder Reservoir.
After quenching his body with the thunder mines, Long Yu was ready to comprehend the next level of the thunder principle.
Just two or three days were left before the commencement of seven sects compet.i.tion, and Long Yu wanted to enhance his strength as much as he could.
………
Meanwhile, in the Imperial city.
Liu clan mansion.
Liu Yu and Feng Longsong had finished talking. Since it was clear to everyone that Long Yu was going to become a great warrior, there was no way Liu Yu could persuade her husband to stay with her at the Liu clan mansion. So, she reluctantly agreed to accompany her husband back to Yu Guan city.
However, both of them were still worried about their daughter, for they didn’t know where Feng Yao was.
Although Feng Yao sent her messenger pigeons every once in a while to Liu Yu, that was enough to satisfy a mother’s heart.
Feng Longsong was worried about his daughter’s well-being, too.
Feng Longsong’s cultivation had been restored and he had entered Zhenling sixth layer, which meant that he was among the strongest people in the entire Tang kingdom now. Not to mention, the energy that had been acc.u.mulating inside his blocked meridians for the last twenty years hadn’t completely been consumed by him yet.
Feng Longsong returned to the Divine valley inn and started meditating to break through into the Zhenling seventh layer, which was also known as the Realm of Zhenling Unity!
If he entered the Zhenling seventh layer, Feng Longsong’s strength might rival the strongest of the members of Zhentian sect or the four most influential families of the Tang kingdom.
Unfortunately for Feng Longsong, breaking into Zhenling seventh layer wasn’t an easy feat to achieve. All the energy that he had acc.u.mulated during the last twenty years might not suffice to help him enter the Realm of Zhenling Unity, since it involved crossing through a difficult bottleneck.
The seven sects’ compet.i.tion was to start soon, and Feng Longsong had a feeling that Prince Chu Chao Sheng would do everything in his power to help the Qiansi sect in winning the compet.i.tion.
Even if Long Yu managed to defeat Yu Qianning in the compet.i.tion, Chu Chao Sheng would stop at nothing to create trouble for Long Yu.
Chu Chao Sheng was an expert at making foolproof plans, otherwise, it would’ve been impossible for him to expel Long Zaitian from the Tang kingdom, given that he was the greatest warrior this land had seen.
“If I could somehow enter the Realm of Zhenling Unity before the seven sects’ compet.i.tion commences, I would surely be able to protect Long Yu.”
Feng Longsong thought to himself as he sat quietly in his room.
He had seen Long Yu go inside the Liu clan mansion with Liu Yuan, and was aware of them going out together. However, he was not worried about them.
After all, when was it that some danger had deterred Long Yu?
Not only had he once dared to enter the Heavenly Thunder Reservoir to escape from his enemies, he had also quenched his body with the dangerous thunder mines and comprehended the thunder charm!
There was nothing to worry about Long Yu. In fact, Feng Longsong was quite interested in those two as he hoped that they might get along well together and could even form a great couple.
Feng Longsong smiled as he thought about the prospects of Long Yu and Liu Yuan together.
………
Long Yu’s temporary disappearance did not worry Feng Longsong or anyone from Zhentian sect since they all had complete trust in Long Yu’s abilities.
However, the sudden disappearance of w.a.n.g Yuanchen and the old bodyguard caused a great upheaval in the Imperial w.a.n.g clan.
In spite of searching for them everywhere, no one had been able to find w.a.n.g Yuan or the old bodyguard or any of the nine Zhenling level bodyguards that they had taken with them.
Two days before the seven sects’ compet.i.tion, inside w.a.n.g Clan Palace.
The chief of the Imperial w.a.n.g clan was named w.a.n.g Jue, an expert who had already entered the Realm of Zhenling Unity.
He was a middle-aged man wearing a golden silk robe. His mountain-like stature and imposing manner made it impossible for anyone to dare to approach him.
At this time, he was sitting in the grand hall of the w.a.n.g Clan Palace with a stern face, listening to the servants reporting back to him.
“Master, I haven’t found them.”
“I haven’t found them either, Master.”
“I searched for them everywhere, but they were nowhere to be seen.”
The seven sects’ compet.i.tion was about to start in two days, and w.a.n.g Yuanchen and the old bodyguard had gone missing all of a sudden!
w.a.n.g Jue was aware of w.a.n.g Yuanchen and the old bodyguard taking a team of nine other bodyguards to catch and kill Long Yu, but he was unable to figure out what might have happened to them which forced them to disappear.
The news that Long Yu and Liu Yuan had gone missing in a similar fashion prevented w.a.n.g Jue from thinking that Long Yu and Liu Yuan might have killed w.a.n.g Yuanchen and the old bodyguard.
He didn’t underestimate Long Yu’s strength. The news of Long Yu fighting Long Ji to protect Liu Yuan in front of the Liu clan mansion had spread all over the Imperial city like a wildfire.
However, no one knew how a Zhenling third layer martial artist like Long Yu could thrash a Zhenling fifth layer expert like Long Ji!
w.a.n.g Jue was lost in his thoughts when suddenly a spy came running to report him: “Master, I found Long Yu and Liu Yuan!”
“What? Where?”
w.a.n.g Jue frowned. Although it wasn’t good news, he could still catch Long Yu and Liu Yuan and force them to tell the whereabouts of w.a.n.g Yuanchen and the old bodyguard!
“Some people recognized them inside the Lu Auction House!”
The spy respectfully said.
Lu Auction House!
w.a.n.g Jue’s complexion changed. Had the largest auction house in the Imperial city organized an auction right before the commencement of the seven sects’ compet.i.tion?
As the chief of the Imperial w.a.n.g clan, he had never before felt the need to attend an auction.
However, since Long Yu and Liu Yuan were spotted inside the auction house, he knew that he now had to make a trip to the auction house in person.
He stood up, left the w.a.n.g Clan Palace alone and walked towards the Lu Action House.
The chief of the Imperial w.a.n.g Clan, w.a.n.g Jue, was respected everywhere.
No one could dare to disrespect him except for one person. Even the likes of the Imperial Princess greeted him with respect!
………
Imperial City, Lu Auction House.
Long Yu and Liu Yuan made it back to the Imperial city in time. The grand auction at the Lu Auction House was about to get started.
The good news was that Liu Yuan had gotten a great insight into the general trend of the Lunar principle by now.
On the other hand, Long Yu had refined his body more using the thunder mines. Moreover, he had also used the energy of the thunder mines to enhance his comprehension of the thunder charm and found out that the thunder principle was actually a principle of the ‘Realm of Man-Heaven Unity’.
The Lunar principle, The Thunder principle, and the Zhentian domain – Long Yu had comprehended them all.
These three powerful world principles were enough to kill a Zhenling fifth layer powerhouse.
He was probably the only person in the entire Tang kingdom who had been able to comprehend two world principles of the Realm of Man-Heaven Unity’.
However, Long Yu had not gone any further to enhance his comprehension of the marsh mood that he had comprehended in the Teng Snake abyss.
The marsh mood was a good technique to entangle and surprise the opponent, but being a mysterious jade level principle, it was useless without a corresponding Zhenling.
Since Long Yu had access to the Lunar tablet, he invested his time and energy in comprehending the lunar charm.
Inside the Lu Auction House, the proprietor Lu Fu approached Long Yu and Liu Yuan to personally welcome them. This left Liu Yuan in great surprise.
Lu Fu held a prestigious position inside the Lu clan and was far more influential than the old bodyguard was in the w.a.n.g clan. Since Lu Fu arrived to personally welcome Long Yu, it was evident that these two must have had a significant deal earlier!
Otherwise, Lu Fu would’ve never come forward to welcome someone personally, let alone a trivial boy of Zhenling third layer.
Had it not been for Long Yu’s talent, Lu Fu would never have been interested in Long Yu.
However, with the Imperial forces behind him, Lu Fu could clearly see that there was some extraordinary talent in this boy which kept him from getting killed all this time.
“Younger brother, it’s the grand auction today. Won’t you buy a thing or two for yourself?”
Lu Fu asked with a gentle smile.
“I want some immortality pills or neidans to enhance my cultivation.”
Long Yu was precise about what he wanted.
“Well, then have a look at the items for sale in the auction. You may find something that suits your interest.”
Lu Fu said in a mysterious tone: “For the auction will give you what you have been searching for all this time.”
What did he mean?
However, Long Yu smirked and nodded. He didn’t care about what mystery was hidden in Lu Fu’s words.
He and Liu Yuan had gone to the auction house for the sole purpose of partic.i.p.ating in the auction.
Long Yu wanted to step into the Zhenling fourth layer, which wasn’t a task that some immortality pills could accomplice.
However, if he could find a mysterious level immortality pill; that could really help him out.
A mysterious level immortality pill contained a strong aura which was even stronger than any ordinary immortality pill, neidan or jindan (golden elixir).
Although it would cost him 100,000 crystal coins or even more, the effect would be highly desirable.
The only reason Long Yu decided to partic.i.p.ate in the grand auction was to see whether there was some mysterious level immortality pill for sale. If he could find one there, he would definitely buy it without any delay.
“Let’s go inside.”
Long Yu said to Liu Yuan. They both paced towards a cabin for VIP, from where they could bid for anything without letting the others know who they were.
Soon, the auction began.
Sitting behind the curtains of the VIP cabin, Long Yu watched everyone who had come to attend the auction and found a few familiar faces in the crowd.
Feng Yang, Feng Luo and Feng Lin – three young masters of the previous Feng clan, were walking behind a young man dressed in a silk robe.
