1748 The Thousand Treasures Pavilion Auction

After Chu Yunfan entered the small town where the Thousand Treasures Pavilion branch was located, Gongsun Liang also rushed into the small town.

“Chu Yunfan, where are you going?” Gongsun Liang pointed his silver spear at Chu Yunfan.

“Honored guest, no matter what kind of grudge you have, you can’t make a move here. Otherwise, you’ll be making an enemy of the Thousand Treasures Pavilion. You can’t afford that price.”

At this moment, an old voice came from the sky, accompanied by a terrifying pressure that stopped Gongsun Liang, whose expression quickly fell. He could feel that the old voice came from a Cosmic who was even stronger than him.

Moreover, just as the old voice said, he really could not afford to offend the Thousand Treasures Pavilion. Not to mention him, even the gang he was in couldn’t afford to offend the Thousand Treasures Pavilion.

Everyone knew that although the Thousand Treasures Pavilion was focused on doing business, it was impossible to say that there were no top-notch experts when they had that much wealth. It was likely that it had long been swallowed up by many forces that were eyeing them covetously.

Not to mention, the number of experts who had received favors from the Thousand Treasures Pavilion over the years was unknown. These people had connections all over Grand Xia. How could the Iron Spears afford to offend them?

Even someone as arrogant as him knew when to restrain himself and when to be impudent. He even had a feeling that if he dared to make a move, he might be beaten and kicked out.

“I am from the Iron Spear Gang, Gongsun Liang. I was being too rash.” Gongsun Liang cupped his hands.

The pressure brought by the old voice disappeared. Gongsun Liang then realized that Chu Yunfan, who had been in front of him just a moment ago, had disappeared without a trace.

He finally understood Chu Yunfan’s intention. Chu Yunfan had clearly done this on purpose. Chu Yunfan knew that he wouldn’t dare to make a move here.

“Hmph, the auction has a time limit. It’ll just be a few days at most. I don’t believe that after the auction ends, you’ll stick around,” Gongsun Liang muttered through gritted teeth.

The auction of the Thousand Treasures Pavilion branch was held by a Cosmic. Such a configuration was no doubt luxurious. Even Chu Yunfan couldn’t help but click his tongue in wonder.

In a few flashes, he left Gongsun Liang behind. His ears were filled with chatter. The entire town had already become a large-scale trade fair. All kinds of itinerant martial artists or martial artists from small sects were hawking all kinds of pills, medicinal herbs, natural treasures, magic treasures, and so on.

However, Chu Yunfan was not interested in these. Basically, it was just some Core Formers hawking their wares. Occasionally, there would be a few Golden Cores selling goods, but Chu Yunfan was also not interested in them. Right now, his only goal was to get the Tiny Violet Grass from the auction.

He knew that Gongsun Liang was waiting for him outside. Once the auction ended, he would be greeted with Gongsun Liang’s storm-like attacks. However, Chu Yunfan did not panic. He had his ways to protect himself.

With his current strength, after transforming into a hou, even a few peak Interpreters would be no match for him. However, his combat strength was still unable to break through to the Cosmos Stage. At most, he could only be considered a half-step Cosmic.

If he waited for his cultivation to advance a step further and reach the peak of the Abstract Observance Stage, his battle prowess would be able to break through to the Cosmos Stage when he took on the hou form. Although it wouldn’t be for long, it would be long enough. At that time, he would have the ability to arm wrestle with Cosmics.

Although Gongsun Liang was aggressive, Chu Yunfan could see that his cultivation was far inferior to the Blood Demon Sect’s leader and the others. He had probably just entered the Cosmos Stage not long ago. And Chu Yunfan was not afraid of such a Cosmic.

“After I make the remaining two Great Essence Cultivator Pills and break through to the Abstract Interpretation Stage, it’s still uncertain who will kill who.” Chu Yunfan sneered.

When his cultivation broke through to the Abstract Interpretation Stage, he would have the ability to kill a Cosmic even without transforming into a hou. Thinking of this, Chu Yunfan no longer hesitated and immediately went to find Wan Sanqian.

“Welcome, Colonel Chu!” Wan Sanqian greeted Chu Yunfan with a warm smile. “You must be here for the Tiny Violet Grass. It just so happens that the next auction item is just that. Our branch is divided into two parts. The first part is a trading meeting, and the second part is an auction in the auction house.”

Under Wan Sanqian’s lead, Chu Yunfan quickly arrived at a building in the middle of the town. This building looked ordinary. If one only looked at the outside, no one would know that there was an auction house inside. The place was very special. It was actually built into the underground.

When Chu Yunfan walked into the auction house and found that it was already in an uproar.

“100,000 middle-grade spirit stones going once! 100,000 middle-grade spirit stones going twice!” the auctioneer shouted.

“150,000 middle-grade spirit stones!”

As expected, someone couldn’t help but shout. Then, all kinds of bids rose and fell.

Chu Yunfan followed Wan Sanqian to a VIP room. The room was decorated in an extremely simple and elegant manner. As it was located underground, there was no natural lighting. However, there were many oil lamps around. When these oil lamps burned, they were as bright as day and emitted a faint fragrance. It was not ordinary oil, but oil extracted from some demon beasts and specially processed. If an ordinary person lit this lamp while cultivating, they could easily enter a meditative state and increase their cultivation speed.

Generally speaking, only the higher-ups of some families and sects could use these oils all year round. The extravagance of the Thousand Treasures Pavilion could not help but make Chu Yunfan click his tongue in wonder.

Chu Yunfan sat down and left immediately after Wan Sanqian explained some details. He wasn’t very interested in the items being auctioned, but soon, the one he was really interested in, the Tiny Violet Grass, finally appeared.

“Everyone, next up, we will be auctioning five stalks of the rarely seen Tiny Violet Grass!” the auctioneer announced.

“Tiny Violet Grass is neutral and mild in nature. It can combine the medicinal properties of many medicinal herbs and is an indispensable supplementary medicine for making many medicinal pills. However, it’s a very rare item. Today, the Thousand Treasures Pavilion has five stalks to auction off!”
