Unstoppable Martial Arts: Starting from Attribute Points Allocation

Chapter 537: Chapter 288: Returning to the Purple Gold Auction House, Huge Amount of Spirit Crystals_2

Around them, various voices rose in admiration, envy, and contempt.

Xie Yushi gaped slightly, visibly taken aback.

The Imperial City was enormous, furthermore, it was the heart of Morigin. From all over Central Province and other provinces, powerful figures and Heavenly Prides came at any time.

They were unfamiliar with the Imperial City, thus the need for guides, leading them to the places they needed to go and helping them understand the circumstances.

The usual remuneration for a guide was ten spirit crystals per day.

Lu Yun started with a hundred spirit crystals, which was equivalent to her guiding wait for ten times.

Lu Yun didn’t think a hundred spirit crystals was a lot; the spirit crystals he consumed in each cultivation session were counted in tens of thousands.

A hundred spirit crystals couldn’t do much.

Qin Feng, who was nearby, had an odd look in his eyes.

“Seriously, bro, you’re being overly generous. Don’t tell me you’ve taken a fancy to this lass?”

Upon hearing this, Yushi’s face immediately turned a shade of crimson, and she sneakily glanced at Lu Yun.

He seemed to be of similar age as her, but gave off a sense of composure, especially with him being so handsome…

Faced with Qin Feng’s teasing, Lu Yun simply shook his head slightly, his expression unreadable.

Along the way, Xie Yushi conveyed a lot of information, helping Lu Yun get a general idea about the Imperial City.

“Young Master, the Imperial City is vast, accommodations are limited. Especially during such a grand event, it will be bustling, and it’s necessary to find a place to stay first. Otherwise, by that time, even if you have endless spirit crystals, you wouldn’t be able to find a place to live.”

Xie Yushi stopped in front of a luxurious building and relayed to Lu Yun.

“We can sort the lodging matter later, but could you tell me if there are any large auction events in the Imperial City?”

“Auction events?” Xie Yushi pondered for a moment before explaining, “In the Imperial City, there are a total of three auction houses, with the Purple Gold Auction House being the largest.”

“Right, in a fortnight, the Purple Gold Auction House will be hosting a large-scale auction, with countless priceless items up for bidding.”

Upon hearing this, Lu Yun was slightly surprised.

He hadn’t expected to find the Purple Gold Auction House in Morigin’s Imperial City; its scale and influence were far greater than Lu Yun had imagined.

“Brother Qin, I have an errand to run at the Purple Gold Auction House.” Lu Yun looked towards Qin Feng who was standing beside him.

With the look he gave, it was clear he was suggesting, ‘You should stop following me now, and get on with your own business.’

Qin Feng cheerily waved off his statement. “Haha, no worries, I was planning on checking out the Purple Gold Auction House in the Imperial City myself.”

Given this, Lu Yun naturally had nothing more to say. He turned to Yushi and said, “In that case, you can lead us to the Purple Gold Auction House first.”

“The Purple Gold Auction House isn’t far from here. I will take you two there.”

…

The Purple Gold Auction House was one of the most lavish and extravagant buildings in Imperial City.

Merely the entry fee to the Purple Gold Auction House was ten spirit crystals.

It was the most extravagant place, only treaded by descendants of top-tier aristocratic families or powerful Heavenly Pride martial artists.

After handing over twenty spirit crystals, Lu Yun entered the auction house with Xie Yushi.

As for Qin Feng, as soon as they approached the auction house, his figure was nowhere to be seen. He seemed to have disappeared mysteriously.

Generally, the Purple Gold Auction House held a small auction once a month, a medium-sized auction every three months, a large auction every half a year, and a giant auction once a year.

Today happened to be the day of the small monthly auction.

So, the Purple Gold Auction House was extremely buzzing with many young talents and descendants of powerful families gathering in the auction hall.

“Young sir, would you like to participate in the auction, or consign an item?”

A manager in the hall asked Lu Yun.

Lu Yun shook his head. “I’m neither participating in the auction nor consigning any items.”

“Oh, how may I assist you then, young sir?” The manager maintained a polite smile on his face.

“My surname is Lu. I have some odds and ends that need dealing with.”

“Oh, Young Master Lu, please follow me.”

Immediately, the manager led Lu Yun and Xie Yushi away from the hall to a separate room.

After ordering a few attendants to serve spirit tea to Lu Yun and Xie Yushi, the manager asked, “Young Master Lu, please fetch your items.”

Lu Yun nodded, waved his hand, and a pile of spirit grass and spiritual fruit immediately filled up the space in front of him.

Grades ranged from Third to Seventh Grade, leaving the Manager and Xie Yushi who were in the room dumbstruck.

“There’s so much.” The Manager couldn’t help but swallow in awe.

If it was just a few spirit herbs, even Seventh Grade ones, he wouldn’t give them a second look.

But with so many spirit herbs, almost filling the entire room, even he, who had been the Manager of the Purple Gold Auction House for over a decade and had seen a great deal, was surprised.

“This is just part of it. If everything were brought out, I’m afraid it wouldn’t fit in this room. I’d like Chief Lin to take a look first and tell me how many spirit crystals these things can be exchanged for.”

“Alright…alright…”

Chief Lin immediately swallowed the spirit tea in one gulp and started working.

“Black Fungi Grass, Third Grade spirit herbal, ten spirit crystals.”

“Falling Petal Flower, Third Grade spirit herbal, nine spirit crystals.”

“White Orchid Fruit, Fourth Grade spiritual fruit, fifty spirit crystals.”

“Cold Ice Arrow Grass, Fifth Grade spirit herbal, two hundred and forty spirit crystals.”

“Nine-Tailed Dragon Sunflower, Sixth Grade spirit herbal, one thousand five hundred spirit crystals.”

“Dragon’s Beard Ice and Fire Fruit, Seventh Grade spirit herbal, five thousand and one hundred spirit crystals.”

…

After spending half an hour, Chief Lin finally sorted out all the spirit grass and spiritual fruit, and logged them into the register.

“Young Master, there are one thousand five hundred and thirty-four Third Grade spirit herbs, totaling fifteen thousand six hundred spirit crystals; one thousand one hundred and thirty-one Fourth Grade spirit herbs, totaling fifty-six thousand three hundred spirit crystals; eight hundred fifty-one Fifth Grade spirit herbs, totaling two hundred and five thousand spirit crystals; one hundred fifty Sixth Grade spirit herbs, totaling two hundred twenty-five thousand spirit crystals; fifty-three Seventh Grade spirit herbs, totaling two hundred seventy thousand spirit crystals.”

Chief Lin wiped the sweat off his forehead and placed the Sumi Rings containing the spirit herbs, along with the register on the table in front of him, smiling, “These spirit herbs total to eight hundred and one thousand nine hundred spirit crystals.”

Lu Yun nodded, then took out another Sumi Ring. With a thought, the house was filled again with glistening light.

However, this time the room was full of various weapons, including knives, spears, swords, halberds, lances, axes, and so on.

Without a doubt, what was most eye-catching was the Treasure Artifact level Blood Spirit Ghostly Spear.

The Blood Spirit Ghostly Spear, a Mid-level Treasure Artifact, was obtained by Lu Yun when he killed the Saint Child of the Red Moon Demon Sect, Mo Wuzong.

His eyes fell on the Blood Spirit Ghostly Spear, and Chief Lin shivered slightly. He immediately said, “Young Master, the amount of the objects you want to exchange is rather large, I don’t have the authority to handle this. I need to consult with the chief manager.”

Managers of his rank are authorized to handle treasures within the range of one million spirit crystals. But once the amount exceeds this scale, they need to report upward.

Lu Yun didn’t have to wait long. Soon, a middle-aged man in the Rune Seed Realm arrived.

“Greetings, Young Master Lu, I’m Tang Cheng, the Chief Manager of the Purple Gold Auction House. I will be serving you from now on.”

Lu Yun nodded and said directly, “Manager Tang, please estimate the value of these items.”

“Yes, of course.”

Manager Tang gave a wry smile and immediately started to log and appraise each weapon.

“Blood Spirit Ghostly Spear, Mid-level Treasure Artifact, slightly damaged, estimated to be worth one million and five hundred thousand spirit crystals.”

“One million five hundred thousand spirit crystals…” Xie Yushi, who was sitting by the side, was momentarily stunned when she heard this figure.

To her, ten thousand spirit crystals was already a huge number, let alone a total of millions of spirit crystals.

Approximately half an hour later, Manager Tang had finished cataloguing all the weapons and stored them in the Sumi Ring.

“Young Master Lu, these weapons are collectively worth three million one hundred and fifty thousand spirit crystals. You can check.”

After speaking, he handed the register to Lu Yun.

Lu Yun glanced over it casually, indicating no issues.

He then took out all the Sumi Rings he had on his person, a total of fifteen.

If it wasn’t for the fact that Sumi Rings couldn’t contain each other, the number would have been even more.

However, the items contained in these Sumi Rings were relatively few, but varied greatly in kind, including ores, martial arts, cultivation techniques, and so on.

Finally, after Manager Tang completed his calculations, he gave fifty-three thousand spirit crystals.

Lu Yun gladly accepted this.

After all, these things were of little use to him, and the fact that he could obtain so many spirit crystals was beyond his expectations.
