Fishing the Myriad Heavens Chapter 141

Bei Feng and the other four disappeared from the scene as soon as they grabbed their loot. The moment they left, the other experts immediately charged forward towards the pile of Teng Dragon Fruits at the side, even starting a new round of battle for it.

Due to the agreement with the army, half of the Teng Dragon Fruits would go to the military. With only ten plus fruits remaining, the Evolved Jing experts descended into a fierce melee!

"Fellow Daoist, you should come to Dragon Tiger Mountain as a guest when you have the time," Danxia Zi turned to Bei Feng with a smile after they all emerged from the cave.

"Definitely!"

Bei Feng nodded.

Following that, the other three men also offered similar invitations. Bei Feng naturally accepted their invitations without putting on any airs.

With a light nod, the four quickly departed from the mountain, leaving only Bei Feng who silently sat outside of the cave to wait.

Soon, numerous experts also emerged from the cave with great speed. The moment they came out, all of them immediately ran off in different directions without even looking back.

"Uncle Wu, are you alright?" Nie Hai hurried over to Wu Zhongxing as he noticed the trace of blood at the corner of the old man's mouth.

"I'm fine. But unfortunately, I failed to obtain the Primordial Heavenly Fruit by a slim margin."

Wu Zhongxing's strength was not weak, but he still could not avoid getting injured by the joint attacks of a few experts. If he had not been quick enough to disengage from the fight, he might have perished by their hands there and then.

Even though the Teng Dragon Fruits were at stake this time, many of the experts still knew how to control themselves and avoid dealing the killing blow. If someone was injured too heavily and backed out of the fight themselves, the rest would typically not go all out to destroy that person.

Of course, one must know when to advance and when to retreat. Those powerful experts would still not show any mercy towards someone who refused to back off despite being injured!

Wu Zhongxing gathered the Nie family experts and prepared to leave. Seeing the dejected look on Wu Zhongxing's face, Bei Feng guessed that the old man probably did not manage to grab the Tang Dragon Fruit.

With a flash, he appeared in front of the Nie family group.

"No matter how great the favor your Nie family showed for the ancestor mansion keeper, this Primordial Heavenly Fruit should be enough to completely repay you."

A small fruit appeared on Bei Feng's palm as he extended it expressionlessly to the Nie family.

"Many thanks, Fellow Daoist!"

Wu Zhongxing looked deeply at Bei Feng and bowed.

At this point, Wu Zhongxing no longer referred to Bei Feng as 'little fellow'. All the experts here were dragons among men. None of them could be disrespected!

He wasn't Bei Feng's elder in the first place. Since he didn't know about Bei Feng's strength in the past, it was fine if he addressed Bei Feng wrongly. But now that he was aware of Bei Feng's power, it would be demeaning to still refer to him as 'little fellow' or 'lad'.

Nie Hai carefully received the Teng Dragon Fruit from Bei Feng and placed it within a previously prepared but unused jade box.

Wu Zhongxing was actually more interested to pull Bei Feng over to their side. But the Teng Dragon Fruit was also something that he couldn't give up on!

The Nie family head had attempted to break through to the Xiantian realm a few years ago. But due to insufficient preparations, he failed and ended up injuring his own blood and Qi flow, causing him to be unable to display much strength.

Otherwise, with the strength of Maniac Nie, he could easily claim the title of the number one expert under Xiantian realm!

With the aid of this Teng Dragon Fruit, he would definitely be able to recover his blood and Qi. If his luck was good, he might even be able to take the opportunity and break through to the Xiantian stage!

The act of accepting this Teng Dragon Fruit represented that the favor the Nie family bestowed upon the first generation mansion keeper was now written off with a single stroke!

Bei Feng did not linger around and quickly disappeared after handing over the fruit.

"This fish is not destined to be confined to a small pond!" Wu Zhongxing sighed deeply as he watched the departing figure of Bei Feng. Without another word, he brought the Nie family experts away.

Back in the mansion, Bei Feng fell into a deep silence as he measured the place where he had grown up in and spent the majority of his childhood.

Countless memories, both sweet and bitter fleeted before his eyes as he gazed fondly upon the old mansion. He thought of his foster grandfather, and felt a soft lump gather in his throat. After a long time, he finally heaved a light sigh which drifted away with the wind.

"Mystic Four, help me buy a villa outside of Qingcheng. It'll be the best if it can be on a mountain."

Bei Feng picked up the phone and gave Mystic Four some instructions. Ultimately, this old mansion was someone else's property.

"Understood! Boss, are there any other requirements?"

Mystic Four asked.

Bei Feng fondled his chin absentmindedly as he thought. "There aren't any other requirements, but the place must be remote enough."

After settling everything, he took out a piece of Dark Jade Snowy Dragon King meat and prepared for dinner.

Early the next day, Bei Feng was once again practicing Minor Illumination Breathing Technique on the mountain. His skeleton was momentarily dyed purple by a soft light which quickly disappeared, leaving his bones shimmering with a jade white radiance.

All of Bei Feng's physical attributes had already reached the peak of his current capacity. With just a bit more, his stats would break through to 2 stars! At that time, his body would definitely undergo another earth-shaking metamorphosis!

The Ripper was still standing motionlessly at the entrance of the old mansion. When Bei Feng approached, a red light immediately flashed in its eyes as it scanned his body. As quickly as it appeared, the red light also disappeared.

The little fox had its tongue hanging out of its mouth like a dog as it crawled about cutely with an exhausted expression. Bei Feng could hardly hold back a smile as he observed the adorable creature.

The day passed quickly as Bei Feng immersed himself in his body tempering practice. The distance to the 2 stars level was getting closer and closer, only lacking a special opportunity to completely break through. At midnight, Bei Feng made his way to the ancient well.

With a thought, the White Jade Fishing Rod appeared in his hands. His wrists snapped in a well-practiced manner as the hook was cast into the well.

***

A great city stood within one of the Myriad Worlds, its grandeur plain for all to see. This was a large city under the Longtu Dynasty. The cultivators here were as common as the clouds, and were so numerous that they were uncountable!

Currently, a large-scale auction was in progress, and the atmosphere was especially lively. The large number of figures of people moving about created a visual blur when seen from the sky, and the din from the auction rose up to the heavens.

"Welcome, esteemed guests, to our Heavenly Treasures Pavilion! The once-a-decade grand auction will begin officially now!"

A purple-robed old man smiled amiably as he announced. His voice was not loud, but it somehow reverberated through the entire venue. The moment the old man stepped onto the stage, everyone quieted down immediately—there were no exceptions.

"The first item up for auction is the treasured weapon of Old Man Hidden Sword from a hundred years ago, the Red Jade Sword! This sword is preset with three spell formations: Keen Edge; Harden; and a Fire Element Attack Formation. The starting price will be set at 40 pieces of low grade spirit stones!" The purple-robed old man received a pure and translucent ancient red sword from an attendant and called out lightly.

"Old Man Hidden Sword's weapon!"

"Old Man Hidden Sword is a half step Foundation Establishment realm expert, so his weapon must be pretty good!"

A flurry of discussions rose up from the crowd. Old Man Hidden Sword was a famous half step Foundation Establishment realm expert capable of doing as he pleased in the Western regions of Longtu Dynasty. Later, he suddenly disappeared without a trace and was never heard of again. But now that his personal weapons had appeared here, the old man should likely have turned into ashes by now.

"I offer 45 low grade spirit stones!"

A loud voice called.

"48 spirit stones!"

A fierce bidding war began over the Red Jade Sword. In no time, the treasure which was set at 40 low grade spirit stones had reached a price of 120 low grade spirit stones!

The private booths on levels two and three did not even bother to make a bid on this weapon. Obviously, this Red Jade Sword was not good enough to enter their eyes.

Finally, the Red Jade Sword was sold at a price of 135 low grade spirit stones. Immediately after that, the next item was brought onto the stage.

Every item drew gasps of shock and awe from the excited crowd. The auction was set to carry on for the entire day, and by noon, the first half of the auction was concluded. What followed next would be the main event!

Most of the people who managed to buy the items they wanted were also not in a hurry to leave. Everyone was prepared to broaden their horizons in this auction.

"The next item is a sword talisman made by a Foundation Establishment realm expert! It contains three charges of sword Qi which can be controlled by the user! Every sword ray contains a might comparable to a full force strike of a Foundation Establishment expert!" Seeing that he had successfully gotten everyone's interest, he continued. "A sword talisman like this is not easy to create, so the bottom price set for this talisman will be 500 low grade spirit stones! Although it is slightly more costly, if used properly, it is enough to save a person's life three times!"

The crowd was visibly excited at this. But once they thought of the ridiculous price tag, they could only smile bitterly in response.
