Chapter 99: Setting Off for the Heavenly Wind Gorge

The next auction item was the 569th one, the lower-grade magical treasure known as the Earth Flame Sword. Forged from ten-thousand-year fire crystal stones and embedded with a gathering array, it could absorb true essence and qi energy to condense exotic flames, boasting an astonishing killing power. The starting bid was eight yuan crystals!

Gu Huayu, the tower master, continued to preside over the auction.

After half a day of bidding, the moment for auctioning the precious items finally arrived. This time, all the items up for auction were magical treasures, mid-grade elixirs, precious herbs, and other valuable treasures.

"Nine yuan crystals!"

"Ten yuan crystals!"

Facing this lower-grade magical treasure, forces and experts from the Twelve Pavilions and Thirty-Six Pavilions began to bid furiously.

To them, lower-grade magical treasures were the most coveted items, capable of greatly enhancing their own strength and that of their forces, as well as their foundation, and could be passed down through generations.

Although Yi Tian was tempted by the Earth Flame Sword, he did not make a move.

His only goal this time was the treasure bow from the Tiangfeng Auction, the Breaking Void Bow!

Most of the auction items had already been leaked before the Tiangfeng Auction even began.

Only a few items remained undisclosed, with the first being the mid-grade treasure talisman, which created suspense and filled everyone with anticipation.

The Earth Flame Sword, a lower-grade fire-attribute magical treasure, did not pose as much of a threat to Yi Tian's strength as the Breaking Void Bow. With the Breaking Void Bow, Yi Tian's Sun-Shooting Heavenly Skill would truly bloom with brilliant light.

Finally, the auction of the Breaking Void Bow arrived.

Gu Huayu introduced the Breaking Void Bow, saying, "This Breaking Void Bow incorporates a small piece of void heaven gold, which causes almost no obstruction to true essence. It can condense true essence into arrows, and its bowstring is made from the tendons of an intermediate-level peak ferocious beast, the flood dragon snake, with superior quality. Starting bid: eighteen yuan crystals!"

Void heaven gold is a metal containing some mysterious power, extremely precious, and used as a material for forging magical treasures.

Metals like void heaven gold are called heavenly metals, and only in the core of some ultra-large metal mine veins, after countless years of gestation, do they form. Their value is similar to that of yuan crystals, making them a kind of heavenly material and earthly treasure.

"Nineteen yuan crystals!"

"Twenty!"

"Twenty-one!"

The Breaking Void Bow's auction began, immediately drawing bids from all forces, with the price continuously rising.

Although the Breaking Void Bow could be considered a hidden gem among magical treasures, every major force had cultivators who practiced archery techniques. With this Breaking Void Bow, their combat strength would surge greatly. Moreover, every magical treasure that circulated was extremely rare. Even a single treasure bow drew quite a few competitors.

One must know that forging magical treasures was not something any force could accomplish.

Apart from the Artifact Sect and a few others, there were almost no forces capable of forging magical treasures.

Each master who could forge magical treasures was at least a person at the Human Realm, and the resources required were immense, beyond what ordinary strength could sustain. In addition, they needed deep foundations and inheritance.

In the Tiangfeng Kingdom, no one could forge magical treasures.

"Twenty-five!"

Yi Tian made another move.

Of course, the price of the Breaking Void Bow continued to rise, putting immense pressure on all sides. After all, each yuan crystal was valuable and extremely rare. Even the inventories of the major forces probably didn't hold much. Each bid was followed by a brief silence before continuing.

When the price of the Breaking Void Bow broke through to thirty yuan crystals, only Yi Tian and one other party were competing.

This left Yi Tian somewhat nervous.

However, when Yi Tian shouted thirty-two yuan crystals, the opponent gave up. This allowed Yi Tian to breathe a sigh of relief. The Breaking Void Bow was finally in his possession, and his strength would skyrocket.

The subsequent auctions opened Yi Tian and their group's eyes.

The mid-grade pill, the Breakthrough Pill, was offered, and the entire auction house erupted in commotion. All forces were frantically competing for it.

The Breakthrough Pill was a kind of pill that could stimulate the body's latent potential. When breaking through, it could increase the success rate. It had a 50% chance of breaking into the Yuan Law Realm, a 10% chance of breaking into the Yuan Dan Realm, and even a slight effect when breaking into the Earth Realm.

Although taking the Breakthrough Pill to stimulate the body's potential would cause physical damage, recovery in a period of time would suffice.

Besides the Breakthrough Pill, there were other heavenly materials and earthly treasures, each causing fierce competition from all sides. There was even one thousand-year Fire Yang Fruit, whose effects were extremely powerful, capable of helping one immediately condense a Yuan Dan, and with the mighty power of bone-felling and marrow-washing.

The Tiangfeng Auction lasted nearly three and a half hours and finally came to a close.

Afterwards, Yi Tian and the others were led by maids to complete the transaction with the Tiangfeng Building, and then left the Tiangfeng Building.

Returning to the manor, Yi Tian and the others spent the next few days in the imperial capital making large-scale purchases. With their storage rings, each one's storage ring was packed full of food piled mountain-high.

They each purchased dozens of low-grade treasure talismans.

For Yi Feng, Yi Shan, and the other members of the Reincarnation War Team, they could only temporarily replace their weapons with high-grade spiritual weapons.

As for the lower-grade magical treasures priced at ten to twenty yuan crystals, they could not afford them for the time being. After all, the dozens of yuan crystals they had before had long been used for breaking through and cultivating the heavenly rank skill, and the number of yuan crystals needed for breaking through was far more than the others' cultivation requirements.

Fifteen days after the auction ended.

Yi Tian and the five members of the Reincarnation War Team left the imperial capital and headed towards Tiangfeng Gorge.

Now, Tiangfeng Gorge was the most suitable place for Yi Tian and the others to train and explore. Moreover, after the Tiangfeng Auction, they had almost no yuan crystals left on them, and only a thousand or two high-grade yuan stones remained. It could be said that their family situation was extremely poor.

Only at this moment did they truly realize the importance of resources.

Without a large amount of resources, they would be unable to purchase magical treasures, top-grade elixirs, spiritual fruits, and even their usual cultivation would lag behind others by a large margin, gradually being left behind.

Therefore, to earn a large amount of resources, they had become urgent.

Tiangfeng Gorge was only a mere thousand li away from the imperial capital of the Tiangfeng Kingdom.

Tiangfeng Gorge stretched for tens of thousands of li, bottomless, possessing terrifying gale winds. The imperial capital of the Tiangfeng Kingdom stood equivalent to being erected beside Tiangfeng Gorge.

However, the gale winds above Tiangfeng Gorge were particularly terrifying, capable of tearing apart even Human Realm experts at the Yuan Dan stage, with extremely terrifying power. Only by entering Tiangfeng Gorge from the ground could one do so.

When Yi Tian and the others arrived at Tiangfeng Gorge, outside it, an army was stationed there, guarding and establishing a magnificent castle.

Yi Tian and the group came to the castle guarded by the Marquis of Tianshan, and here each person paid one hundred high-grade yuan stones and received a passage token, then headed towards Tiangfeng Gorge.

Along the way, Yi Tian and the others discovered small teams composed of Human Realm experts that they rarely saw in the past.

Some teams even invited Yi Tian and the others.

Yi Tian and the others' group was simply too conspicuous. Each of them was only about ten to twenty years old yet had already reached the Human Realm. This situation was extremely rare, and Yi Tian and the others were mistaken by those people as disciples of some sect, otherwise, it would be impossible to break through to the Human Realm at such a young age.

As a resource-rich dangerous land, occasionally some sect disciples would come to explore Tiangfeng Gorge, which was not surprising.

In response, Yi Tian completely rejected them all.

One must know that their group of six people was already sufficient in numbers. Any more would not suffice for distribution, and those people were not from the same team as Yi Tian and the others, making it easy for conflicts, even killings, over precious treasures, and mutual vigilance.

Yi Tian did not wish to consume his mind and energy on such thankless tasks.

This was the Reincarnation War Team's first adventure.

Yi Tian felt some excitement inwardly. As for Yi Feng, Yi Shan, Yi Kuang, and the others, they were all eager, wishing to have a great battle and chop down rows of Wind Spirit Wood in Tiangfeng Gorge to sell at a good price.

This was like picking up gold in a turbulent small river; although there were dangers, it made one unable to help but feel excited.
