The Founder of Qi Cultivation, Reincarnates?

"Does your Auction House acknowledge that the value of a supreme-grade spirit stone surpasses the previous bids?"

The value of spirit stones was well established, but no one could truly put value to supreme-grade spirit stones. But it was possible that even a billion high-grade spirit stones couldn't match up to one regular-size supreme-grade spirit stone.

The old man on the stage hesitate for a moment before he pulled out a jade slip. After communicating to what everyone thought was the higher-ups of the Auction House, the old man put away the jade slip and then said respectfully.

"Young Master Gu, there is no problem."

"Good."

Gu Jin said this and actually flipped over his hand and retrieve the supreme-grade spirit stone.

A baby fist-size white rock appeared in his palms and immediately a massive wave of Qi washed over the entire pavilion. The thousands of disciples had their pores instinctively opened up to absorb this Qi Wave.

Several of them had intoxicated expressions appear on their faces. Even this small residue aura from the supreme-grade spirit stone was purer than any Qi they'd ever absorbed before. It was extremely pure as well.

Without beating around the bush, Gu Jin said.

"Here's the stone, hand over the box."

Everyone was shocked that he was doing the exchange like this but then they thought if they had taken out a supreme-grade spirit stone they would have done the same thing.

Several eyes turned to Mai Rong to see if she would pull out two supreme-grade stones to counter Gu Jin's bid, but even now, she kept silent.

With no bid coming in, the old man sighed and moved towards the two boxes to hand them to Gu Jin. He had managed to hide it, but when he has seen Gu Jin's supreme-grade spirit stone he was disappointed.

That was indeed a supreme-grade spirit stone, but it was a non-tribute supreme-grade spirit stone. Meaning it contained none of the Natural Elements.

It wasn't that Spiritual Qi with no elemental attribute wasn't good. One could absorb it normally and afterwards it could take on the properties of the element you cultivate after entering your dantian. However, it's just that when it has to convert into a person's element it weakens by a bit. A supreme-grade spirit stone with an elemental attribute was different, the boost one received to their cultivation was higher and thus they were more valuable.

But the old man could not complain, a supreme-grade spirit stone was still a supreme-grade spirit stone.

After taking up the two boxes, the old man used his Soul Sense to raise them into the air.

Everyone watched the boxes lifted over their heads and they felt something rise into their hearts. Thoughts about leaping up and grabbing the boxes actually past through their minds, but they ultimately decided something was wrong with this situation.

It almost seemed too perfect, like it was set up so they would go after it.

Upon thinking here a cold chill went down their spines and everyone suddenly turned to Gu Jin.

They saw that his eyes were scanning everyone in the pavilion, and he seemed like a bow that was drawn back to its limit. With so much as a twitch of someone's body to fly up, he would attack them without mercy.

"This Gu Jin is indeed ruthless."

Lu Shin was heard saying before he then turned to Dai Hee and asked.

"Oie! Aren't you supposed to bid for these pills?"

Everyone turned towards Dai Hee who was like Mai Rong that hadn't bid, well, asides from that one initial bid Dai Hee made. Right now he was currently wearing a hesitant expression.

"Brother Dai Hee, what's wrong?"

Jun seeing his expression asked.

After a while, Dai Hee said.

"That girl name Mai Rong hasn't bid yet, she's been watching me this entire time instead and it's unnerving."

Upon hearing this, everyone glance towards the fourth floor where Mai Rong was and sure enough, she had her head turned in their direction.

"Why is she looking at you?"

Fei Yin was heard asking.please visit

"That's what I want to know."

After saying that Dai Hee glance at the boxes that were halfway across the Pavilion hall. The pavilion itself was quite large.

"But are you not going to bid?"

"Is it that you're not able to bid?"

Yang Su asked Dai Hee followed by Jun.

Dai Hee shook his head and said.

"I wasn't expecting the price to become this outrageous, but I can still bid."

However, before Dai Hee could speak up, someone on the ground level suddenly yelled.

"STOP!"

Gu Jin was already sending over his supreme-grade spirit stone via his Spiritual Sense, but another Spiritual Sense that was stronger rose from the ground level to harshly block his.

"You dare!"

Gu Jin seeing this was furious.

However, the person seemed to sneer at Gu Jin while saying.

"Little brat, be careful how you conduct yourself. If you think your Fire Empire is above the heavens then let me tell you there are heavens above the heavens!"

'There are heavens above the heavens...'

The disciples in the pavilion didn't know why, but something about these words caused their hearts to flutter. Especially Fang Chen and Jun.

That was merely just a saying but the certainty by which it was said and the context caused everyone to imagine beyond their scoop of imagination. It was blurry, but an idea was planted in their minds.

There was a place beyond their Continent, no, beyond the four Continents, and it was far stronger.

Gu Jin himself suddenly froze, and soon after he was looking over to where the voice came from and asked slowly.

"W-Who are you?"

Gu Jin actually stuttered.

It was an accident, he couldn't deny those words hadn't affected him.

Long Feng who had his hands folded across his arms made a sweeping glance at Gu Jin and said.

"Go ask your grandfather and he'll tell you who I am."

"Wait, wouldn't that be the former Monarch of the Fire Empire? An existence that was said to surpass the Soul Transformation Realm? Just who is this person?"

The disciples in the pavilion looking at Long Feng perplexed.

When Gu Jin heard Long Feng, his reaction was to crease his brows into a frown. But after looking over Long Feng's ordinary but arrogant appearance and then a small Xiao next to him, his body shook and his eyes dilated into pinholes.

The memory of greeting someone that came to their Fire Empire years prior appeared in his mind. That person was similarly arrogant to this person and wore a veiled hat. He also had a small child that was always next to him.

The prideful Gu Jin was vexed that he had to bow his head to someone who was close to him in age, but after this person met with his grandfather and then left, his grandfather told him despite his current strength or the Fire Empire's entire power, this person was someone he wouldn't dare lay a finger on so he shouldn't either.

This being told to him by his grandfather who he looked up to as a powerful paragon, caused Gu Jin to feel apprehension towards that person.

'Is-Is that him?'
