Nine Evolutions of the True Spirit Chapter 310

Chapter 310: Flying Silk Floss

Liang Xuan-Feng smiled, he raised his left hand but there was nothing in his palm. However, the Enlightened Masters surely wouldn't be deceived so easily. At the same time, Lu Ping felt the airflow in the room suddenly change.

Before he could probe out with his divine revelation, Enlightened Master Huang Ting-Jian exclaimed in surprise, "Flying Silk Floss! Dao Brother Liang, how generous of you to take out a Mystic-class mid-grade wonder wind!"

A heaven-and-earth wonder item!

These words caused an uproar in the room as the Enlightened Masters quickly extended their divine revelations towards Liang Xuan-Feng's hand.

Lu Ping was no exception. Through his divine revelation, he saw an almost insubstantial floss-like object floating around in Liang Xuan-Feng's palm, with a faint whirlwind fluttering around it.

The Flying Silk Floss has no fixed form—it could be some light dust, flotsam, or any substance that had been suspended in the wind for thousands of years without touching the ground. Over time, these substances had fused with the spirituality of the wind and became the Flying Silk Floss.

With Liang Xuan-Feng's identity, it wasn't a surprise that he owned a heaven-and-earth wonder item. However, it was rare to see them available on such a stage. After all, each and every wonder item was crucial for the advancement of Core Forging Realm Enlightened Masters. Hence, most sects would ask their disciples to exchange their wonder items internally within the sect.

At the moment Liang Xuan-Feng took out the wonder wind, everyone in the room grew excited.

"What is Enlightened Master Liang looking for?" The host, Enlightened Master Jin, asked politely.

Liang Xuan-Feng was calm as usual, as if he didn't notice the other Enlightened Masters' fervent looks. "Two wind-element Mystical Inscriptions, preferably one offensive and one defensive, or a flying one. Naturally, they have to be ones that I don't have yet."

More than half of the Enlightened Masters in the room shook their heads in regret, while the rest mulled over his proposal.

Enlightened Master Jin said, "Enlightened Master Liang is very generous. But as the host, I am still obliged to remind you that a Mystic-class wonder item is worth more than two Mystical Inscriptions. It would be a loss."

Enlightened Master Liang nodded with satisfaction. "The Sky Cleaving Sword Sect really lives up to its fair and just reputation. The Mystical Inscriptions are just the base price. High-grade spirit stones are also acceptable to outbid the others."

As soon as he said that, a Late Core Forging Realm Enlightened Master said, "I have an offensive and a flying Mystical inscription, and I'll add on ten high-grade spirit stones."

"What a joke, that's a wonder wind we're talking about. Don't you think your offer is too low? Clarity Essence Sect is a prestigious sect, so Dao Brother Yu should not tarnish its reputation. I offer an offensive and a defensive Mystical Inscription, plus twenty high-grade spirit stones!"

The Late Core Forging Realm Enlightened Master who spoke out was clearly not on good terms with Enlightened Master Yu of Clarity Essence Sect.

Enlightened Master Yu sneered. "Hmph, Yin Ju-Chang, your Jasper Essence Sect is hardly better. Your nephew is a wind-element cultivator, yes? I heard he piled up his cultivation base to the Third Layer Core Forging Realm using medicinal pellets. If you're thinking of getting this Flying Silk Floss for him, I suggest you give up. A lowlife like him will only waste such a precious treasure, and he might even fail his breakthrough and die. You really think he'll be the next generation leader of the sect?"

Enlightened Master Yin's expression darkened, and he said coldly, "That has nothing to do with you. If you cannot afford to raise the offer, then shut your mouth."

Enlightened Master Yu smirked and said nothing.

At this time, another Enlightened Master raised the bid with ten more high-grade spirit stones.

Another Enlightened Master offered two defensive Mystical Inscriptions, but he too, realized that two defensive Mystical Inscriptions weren't as good as one offensive and defensive each, so he bid up to fifty high-grade spirit stones.

Lu Ping noticed that the bidders were all Late Core Forging Realm Enlightened Masters. The Mid Core Forging Realm Enlightened Masters all kept quiet and didn't join the bid.

At this time, Enlightened Master Huang Ting-Jian said, "Dao Brother Liang, the Sky Cleaving Sword Sect offers offensive, defensive, and flying Mystical Inscriptions, and we promise they are not ones you already have. What do you say?"

The Enlightened Masters tensed up. The Sky Cleaving Sword Sect was clearly determined to possess the Flying Silk Floss, so they could only give up unless they didn't mind offending the sect.

Liang Xuan-Feng could read the situation, so he smiled and said, "Since Dao Brother Huang has said so, then we have a deal."

After that, he pointed at Lu Ping and laughed. "The high-grade spirit stones were initially for him, but I guess it's just not his day today."

Under Enlightened Master Huang's instructions, Enlightened Master Jin walked out of the room and returned shortly after with a jade box. In the jade box, there were seven jade scrolls, and Enlightened Master Huang even placed three more in the box just in case the Mystical Inscriptions weren't satisfactory enough.

Liang Xuan-Feng checked the jade scrolls one by one, and after a moment's thought, he picked out three and said, "The Sky Cleaving Sword Sect is worthy of being one of the top five East Ocean sects, your heritage is indeed admirable!"

Enlightened Master Huang Ting-Jian reached out and took the Flying Silk Floss, then stored it in a gourd. "Dao Brother Liang has flattered us."

It was now Enlightened Master Huang Ting-Jian's turn to take out something to exchange. While the Enlightened Masters were looking forward to what treasure he would bring out, Enlightened Master Huang suddenly said, "Little Brother Lu is a Master Alchemist, and has already participated in the trade fair, why don't you also offer up an item?"

Abruptly, all eyes were on Lu Ping. But this time, none of the Enlightened Masters looked down on him as he'd already proved his qualification as a Master Alchemist.

Lu Ping knew that Enlightened Master Huang was giving him this chance because of what Liang Xuan-Feng had said just now. Hence, Lu Ping weighed over what should be offered; something that wouldn't embarrass him but also wouldn't attract too much attention. After all, he was just an Early Core Forging Realm Enlightened Master, and he couldn't securely protect himself just yet.

Although he owned many valuable items, most of them weren't suitable for display.

He already traded away fifteen pieces of 3,000-year spirit herbs, so he couldn't show more of them or even the Great Ancestors would come after him for whatever he still had.

The five heaven-and-earth wonder items were surely out of the question, the few mystic treasures he did have weren't very valuable, and he was still using them as well.

In the end, Lu Ping turned his attention to the Kui Water Essence and Million Poisons Pulp. However, there was only a little of the Kui Water Essence left, and he was also using it to grow the lotus seeds. The only option left was the Million Poisons Pulp.

This would be a good opportunity for him to exchange it for another kind of peculiar water, one that he could use to fuse with his aegis energy for the cultivation of the mini divine ability.

The Enlightened Masters watched as Lu Ping took out a lapis jar filled with a pungent golden liquid.

"What is that? I've never seen something like that before."

"A lapis jar? It can't be anything good inside such a low-quality container."

"After all, he's just in the First Layer, and he's so young. Even if he is a Master Alchemist, without experience, his knowledge is still shallow."

Lu Ping ignored the whispers and carefully placed the lapis jar in front of him, as if he was afraid of knocking the jar over.
