CHAPTER 28: CHAPTER 28: CELESTIAL TECHNIQUE STRUGGLE

Gu Chenfeng actually pierced through the black stone with just one finger.

Although the black stone is a stone, it comes from Clouds Beyond Heaven and is ten times harder than the most ordinary stone.

Even Ling Qiushui, if she wanted to pierce this black stone, would have to activate her Spiritual Power.

But Gu Chenfeng did it purely by relying on the strength of his fingers.

How could someone in the Late Stage of Foundation Establishment do that?

Looking at the small hole, Ling Qiushui asked in shock, "Gu Chenfeng, how did you do that? Such a hard stone, how could you possibly..."

"That’s why I said it’s a treasure." Gu Chenfeng chuckled softly, "Uncle Qiushui, it may look like a stone, but it contains a certain magical power inside that ordinary people can’t detect or sense."

"What kind of magical power?" Ling Qiushui pressed further.

"I don’t know what power it is either." Gu Chenfeng shook his head and said, "I only know that this stone can change its shape; as long as you control this magical power, you can change it at will."

"Control magical power to change at will?" Ling Qiushui was bewildered.

In all her years of cultivating immortality, this was the first time she’d heard of such a mystical treasure.

"That’s right! Watch closely, Uncle." Gu Chenfeng said excitedly, then grabbed the stone and squeezed it hard, instantly turning the black stone into a pentagram.

With a strong press of both hands, Gu Chenfeng changed the pentagram into a black slate, which in his control quickly became larger and then smaller.

The various shape transformations left Ling Qiushui utterly stunned.

Finally, it morphed into a black longsword. Gu Chenfeng smiled proudly and said, "It can even fly. How about it, Uncle? Isn’t it amazing?"

After her shock, Ling Qiushui hurriedly said, "Put it away quickly! Don’t let others notice."

Gu Chenfeng nodded and then stored it into the Return to Ruins Ring.

Suppressing the shock in her heart, Ling Qiushui asked, "Gu Chenfeng, can you control the magical power inside?"

"Yes, it might be related to my Ice Attribute." Gu Chenfeng nodded, "At first, I didn’t know it either, but when I touched it, I felt I could easily change its shape."

"I see." Ling Qiushui slightly furrowed her brows, "It seems only the fated one can control it. This treasure should rarely be taken out to avoid inviting disaster."

"Disciple understands." Gu Chenfeng nodded, feeling extremely excited inside.

Merging with the second memory of the Eternal Celestial Emperor, Gu Chenfeng knew so many things, calling it a universal treasury wouldn’t be too far off.

Time passed swiftly in half an hour.

The auction’s treasures had also reached the final item.

On the auction stage.

Tianjizi smiled happily and said, "The last treasure, I’m sure everyone present is here for this very item."

As soon as his words fell.

An ancient scroll emitting golden light flashed into Tianjizi’s dry old hand out of thin air.

"Celestial Technique!" Everyone present was extremely excited, staring intently at the scroll.

Tianjizi smiled happily and said, "This scroll is the Celestial Technique, moreover, it’s a very powerful Cultivation Technique. I’m sure there’s no need for me to elaborate, as everyone knows its power."

"The Celestial Technique is extremely rare, missing out on it would be regrettable, everyone should seize the opportunity, since it’s a Cultivation Technique, there’s no need to trade another Cultivation Technique for it."

Donghuang War on the third floor was the first to speak, "I offer ten Sixth Grade Celestial Void Spirit Pills!"

Tianjizi nodded, "The Celestial Void Spirit Pills from Young Master Donghuang are indeed valuable."

"I offer a Half-Immortal Spiritual Artifact!" someone else shouted.

"A Half-Immortal Spiritual Artifact is not enough." Tianjizi shook his head slightly.

Another voice said, "I offer one Seventh Grade Heaven-Repairing Profound Yang Pill, this pill can increase the user’s strength tremendously within one hour."

Tianjizi shook his head, "Its value is still far from enough."

"I offer a five-hundred-year-old Immortal Grass," another person said.

"A five-hundred-year-old Immortal Grass is barely acceptable." Tianjizi smiled slightly, yet remained unmoved.

The powerful forces on the second and third floors began to fiercely escalate their bids, presenting various rare and precious treasures one after another.

Yet among so many treasures, Tianjizi dismissed most of them.

"Is there anyone else?" Tianjizi smiled slightly, "If not, the Celestial Technique will belong to Young Master Donghuang."

All the private rooms on the second floor fell silent.

Several private rooms on the third floor also went silent.

Inside the room, Gu Chenfeng frowned and asked, "Uncle Qiushui, with such a precious Celestial Technique, what do we have to trade it for?"

"No rush." Ling Qiushui smiled faintly, "We are determined to obtain the Celestial Technique."

Just as Ling Qiushui finished speaking.

A room on the third floor suddenly echoed with an elderly voice, "A strand of Origin Fire from the Spirit Beast Fire Spirit Bird."

"The Origin Fire of the Fire Spirit Bird!" Tianjizi’s old eyes suddenly lit up.

"It’s actually the Origin Fire of a Spirit Beast!"

"The flame that Alchemists dream of obtaining!"

"What power is so extravagant as to trade such a rare treasure?"

The hall erupted instantly.

"Truly generous." Donghuang War smiled unhurriedly, "Since that’s the case, I’ll also bring out another treasure, a Fiery Sun Fire Crystal from the depths of the Supreme Profound Mountain."

"Fiery Sun Fire Crystal! The purest Fire Attribute Energy!" Tianjizi’s expression was extremely excited.

"Fiery Sun Fire Crystal!" Everyone exclaimed in surprise.

Donghuang War continued to smile, "One isn’t enough, then two. I brought three with me today."

"No wonder it’s Shenxiao Pavilion, I pale in comparison." The elderly voice slowly sounded.

Tianjizi looked at everyone and asked excitedly, "Does anyone have a more precious treasure?"

The entire place fell silent.

Just one Fiery Sun Fire Crystal was already beyond what most could match.

Not to mention Donghuang War brought three.

With such formidable resources, none of the major powers present could truly compare.

Seeing everyone silent, Tianjizi decisively said, "Since no one has offered a more valuable treasure, the Celestial Technique belongs to Young Master Donghuang..."

However.

Tianjizi had not finished speaking when he was interrupted.

"Hold on." Ling Qiushui suddenly spoke up.

"Ling Qiushui," Donghuang War’s lips slightly curled, without a hint of panic.

Ling Qiushui smiled softly, "Elder Tianjizi, I wonder if the corpse of a Tier Eight Demon Beast could be more precious than a Fiery Sun Fire Crystal?"

"What? The corpse of a Tier Eight Demon Beast?" Tianjizi was so shocked that his old eyes nearly popped out.

"The corpse of a Tier Eight Demon Beast!" The crowd exclaimed once again, their eyes full of terror.

"The corpse of a Tier Eight Demon Beast?" Donghuang War asked in shock, "Is Qiushui joking? The Ancient Divine Sect may be strong, but they would never provoke a Tier Eight Demon Beast."

"That’s right." Ling Qiushui said somewhat proudly, "The Ancient Divine Sect is offering a corpse of a Tier Eight Demon Beast, and it’s an intact corpse. The value inside it, I’m sure everyone present knows well."

"Uncle Qiushui, are you serious? How could there be a corpse of such a terrifying Tier Eight Demon Beast?" Gu Chenfeng asked in shock.

"Of course not." Ling Qiushui laughed softly, "This was a gift from the undying immortal to the Divine Sect years ago, preserved until today, and now it finally proves useful. Donghuang War won’t take the Celestial Technique so easily."
