Translator: Dragon Boat Translation | Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
The auction reached its climax with the appearance of the Universe Stabilizer. As the next item was introduced, everyone’s attention was captivated, eagerly looking at Lu Yao.
Lu Yao wore a beautiful smile and said, “I believe there is no need for me to introduce further. I’m sure you have already guessed what the next item is.”
“Notably, it’s the Ninth-Grade Universe Stabilizer, a highly anticipated premium pill from the renowned Island of No Return!” Lu Yao’s voice rose, filled with excitement.
The crowd erupted with astonishment.
“It’s the Universe Stabilizer!”
“I thought it would be a common pill like the Spirit Gathering Pill, but it’s actually the highly elusive Universe Stabilizer!”
“The Island of No Return has truly outdone themselves, offering the Universe Stabilizer for auction!”
“I would give up everything to obtain it!”
The Universe Stabilizer, a pill that stabilized the universe, possessed tremendous benefits for high-level cultivators. If consumed by an advanced Heavenly-ranked cultivator, it could promote them a Saint. Even Saints could greatly benefit from its consumption.
Moreover, the Universe Stabilizer had the function of stabilizing one’s foundation and nurturing their elemental energy. Even with significant cultivation advancement, the damage to the body from consuming this pill was minimal.
When it came to the Universe Stabilizer from the Island of No Return, there was no doubt that even this minimal damage could be avoided!
Due to the difficulty in refining the Universe Stabilizer, anyone in possession of it would prioritize its use for themselves, their family, or their sect. It was practically impossible to find this item in the market.
Today’s visit had indeed been worthwhile!
Gu Zhixin turned to Gu Jinrong and said, “I didn’t expect it to be the Universe Stabilizer. Even if it wasn’t to please Mr. Liu, we must strive to acquire the Universe Stabilizer!”
As a cultivator in the lower Ninth Grade, after dedicating some time to reach the Divine Grade and with the help of the Universe Stabilizer, he would instantly ascend to become one of the foremost experts on the Cloud Plains Continent.
Gu Jinrong nodded excitedly.
Suddenly, Gu Zhixin frowned. “There are many others with the same idea as us. It might be difficult for us to snatch the Universe Stabilizer. Rong’er, go find your uncle immediately and tell him that we should cooperate!”
“But Uncle might not agree since you had a fight with him a few days ago.”
“We only had a mere disagreement; we’re not enemies. Besides, we are blood brothers. Can we really avoid each other for a lifetime? Elder brother always prioritizes interests. Discuss it with him properly, and he will support us.”
“Alright, I’ll go right away!”
Because Mr. Liu refused to help the Wang family, Gu Zhicheng was so angry that he didn’t attend the auction. Once Gu Jinrong left the Lushi Auction House, he rushed to the Gu Mansion.
At the same time, many local participants in the auction sent people back to gather funds.
Those who had traveled from afar could only regret not bringing more money with them.
In a VIP room on the second floor.
The auction house attendant took the Chaos Stone inside.
Feng Tianlan handed over a black card.
The attendant’s hand trembled upon seeing the black card, almost dropping the tray he was holding.
“Please wait a moment,” he stammered.
He placed the Chaos Stone on the table and used a special method to deduct the equivalent of one hundred Xuanling Crystal Hearts from the silver coins stored in the black card.
Then, with utmost respect, he handed the black card back to Feng Tianlan.
Initially, the attendant thought this customer had an ordinary appearance, but upon closer inspection, he noticed the profound and mesmerizing depth in the customer’s eyes.
Those pitch-black pupils were truly captivating.
“Is there anything else?” Feng Tianlan raised an eyebrow lightly.
Under his gaze, the attendant felt his whole body freeze in place.
Remembering the young lady’s request, he nervously replied, “Sir… there’s a young lady who wishes to exchange this Chaos Stone for the Island of No Return’s Sacred-Grade elixir.. May I inquire if you are interested?”
