Sole Sword Supremacy

Chapter 348: Netherworld Auction


Time passed quickly, and in the blink of an eye, a day had gone by.

During this period, Liang Zidong was sent out to gather information, and he did have some minor success.

For instance, although Yunxiao City appeared much safer, in reality, this safety was very limited.

In Yunxiao City, private fights are not prohibited at all, and even if you kill someone, no one will intervene.

Oh, the patrolling soldiers will intervene, but only to collect money... Killing an ordinary citizen incurs a fine of one hundred Spirit Stones, and if the deceased is a Cultivator, starting from the Opening Veins realm, the fine doubles with each higher realm.

If you can't pay or refuse to pay the fine, those patrolling soldiers will take action to kill the murderer.

Of course, if you are strong enough, such as having a cultivation above the Heaven-Stepping Realm, to intimidate these soldiers, you can naturally refuse to pay, and no one will care about you.

Additionally, the large inns here charge exorbitantly, but once you stay, the inn will ensure your safety.

However, if you stay at a small inn or rent a house, no one will look after you, and you're on your own if you encounter robbery or any other incidents.

It is said that these rules originated from the Nether Sea.

Only by adapting to these rules can one survive in the Nether Sea.

Moreover, the Netherworld Auction is held at night, outside the city; with a Netherworld Order, you can naturally sense its location.

However, what exactly is up for auction is beyond what Liang Zidong could find out.

After nightfall, Wang Junze did not bring the Liang siblings but left the city alone.

It wasn't that he was reluctant to buy two more Netherworld Orders, but it was uncertain if this trip would be dangerous, and if a fight broke out, the Liang siblings' limited strength would only lead them to their deaths.

Just as Liang Zidong had found out, after leaving the city, Wang Junze easily sensed a guiding aura with his Netherworld Order.

After flying for almost half an hour, Wang Junze saw the site of the Netherworld Auction.

The site was an open plain, but a high platform had been temporarily erected, and many people had already gathered around. Because of the Netherworld Order, it was impossible to discern the strength of these people, but the person hosting the auction on the high platform was a Heaven-Stepping Realm powerhouse.

Apart from this, there were also many guards dressed in black around, and their strength was evidently not ordinary.

"How should I address this friend?"

Wang Junze took the opportunity to blend into the crowd, and before he could ask for information, someone greeted him with a smile and asked.

"My surname is Ye!"

Feeling a slight movement in his heart, Wang Junze casually replied.

This was something Wang Junze had already planned; of course, he couldn't say his real name and decided to temporarily borrow the name of that master.

Of course, this master referred to Ye Piaoling, not Zhou Dongfei.

After all, Ye Piaoling was an ancient powerhouse; there probably weren't many people left in the world who knew this name.

"Young Master Ye, I am the Master of All Things, always eager to help, no matter what information you want to find out or what items you fancy at the auction and find yourself short of Spirit Stones, I can help you." With a cheerful smile, Master of All Things introduced himself with familiarity.

Hearing this, Wang Junze couldn't help but feel a slight stir in his heart.

Master of All Things was obviously not a real name, but was the other party planning to offer loans?

"What do you mean, you can lend me Spirit Stones?"

Curiously looking at the other party, Wang Junze asked back, "How much can you lend me?"

"Haha, that depends on you, Young Master Ye. Simply put... Either you have some treasure with you, which I can help you mortgage or sell to obtain Spirit Stones. Alternatively, if you are willing to show your strength, that works too; Condensing Realm can borrow three thousand Spirit Stones, Refining Spirit can borrow eight thousand, Heaven-Stepping thirty thousand, and Void Shattering a hundred thousand!"

Master of All Things spoke with confidence.

Of course, he did not mention anything above the Void Shattering realm because such powerhouses usually don't lack Spirit Stones, and also, he might not be confident in retrieving the lent Spirit Stones in such cases.

"How much interest?"

Wang Junze asked again.

"Young Master Ye is a wise person." Master of All Things replied with a grin, "Not expensive, thirty percent interest, and it must be repaid within a month."

This is considered not expensive?

Wang Junze shook his head internally but naturally did not show any abnormal expression on his face and replied with a smile, "All right, I've noted it down. I'll come to you if I need it."

After a pause, Wang Junze continued to ask, "By the way, old brother, since you claim to be the Master of All Things, do you know what good stuff is being sold tonight?"

"Haha, you've asked the right person for that."

With a smug smile, Master of All Things lowered his voice and said, "I won't mention the ordinary items; I can disclose a few of the rarest items in this auction."

"Firstly, a female disciple of the Profound Moon Sword Sect!"

Master of All Things continued to explain, "A disciple of the Four Great Celestial Sects, just this point of interest is quite enticing, right? Moreover, if you actually buy her, you might even be able to force some cultivation techniques of the Profound Moon Sword Sect out of her, like... the Profound Moon Sword Technique!"

"Hmm?"

With a slight skip of the heart, Wang Junze finally realized the key to the value of the Profound Moon Sword Sect's disciples.

It should be known that for ordinary Cultivators, a powerful Swordsmanship technique is extremely valuable in itself, and the Profound Moon Sword Technique is one such technique that is unobtainable under normal circumstances.

Of course, using the Profound Moon Sword Technique without being a Profound Moon Sword Sect disciple would definitely bring trouble and possibly attract the Profound Moon Sword Sect's pursuit. However, these Demon Cultivators have always been daring, especially since the Profound Moon Sword Sect suffered heavy losses in the recent Northern Domain battle and probably can't spare the attention to handle these matters in the short term.

That's right, it's precisely because of this recent battle in the Northern Domain that the Profound Moon Sword Sect suffered severe losses. Otherwise, they probably wouldn't have chosen to target the Profound Moon Sword Sect's disciples.

After all, the Four Great Celestial Sects still hold significant deterrence over others.

Remaining vigilant inside, Wang Junze still maintained an indifferent appearance on his face, casually responding, "I have my own inheritance, and the Profound Moon Sword Sect's techniques hold no interest for me. What else?"

"How about the Blood Spirit Pill?"

Master of All Things continued, "This is a Spirit Pill unique to the Nether Sea, extremely effective both for healing and cultivation. This time, there will be Supreme Grade Blood Spirit Pills for sale, which are effective even for Void Shattering powerhouses!"

Regarding the Blood Spirit Pill, Wang Junze was actually somewhat familiar.

Though the Elixir's effects are indeed excellent, the refining process is extremely brutal.

The main ingredient of the Blood Spirit Pill is human beings!

To be precise, it is the life of a Cultivator!

A Supreme Grade Blood Spirit Pill is refined at the cost of a Void Shattering powerhouse's life, and indeed, only the Demon Cultivators of the Nether Sea can refine such an Elixir.

"And then there's the highlight treasure... but this is something ordinary people can't afford to buy!"

"What is it?"
