Chapter 209: Waiting To Be Bullied

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Tai Yan knew that Di Jiu had invited trouble, yet he did not kick Di Jiu while he was down. He just opened his palm, took the second spatially-teleported item and said, “The second item is a material. Any cultivators who possess a flame should pay attention. This is a Geocentric Flame Crystal, a treasure that could upgrade a flame by two levels. The starting bid for this Geocentric Flame Crystal is 50 million high-grade Spirit Stones. Each bid increment should be more than 10,000.”

By the time Tai Yan finished speaking, the price of the Geocentric Flame Crystal on the bidding panel had already increased swiftly. In a short period of time, the bid had exceeded 100,000. However, the increasing rate of the price slowed down afterwards.

Di Jiu did not participate in the competition for the Geocentric Flame Crystal. His original plan had been to obtain this material so he could upgrade his Dao fire by one level.

After researching the Book of the World for a few months, Di Jiu gave up on the notion of bidding for the Geocentric Flame Crystal. According to the Book of the World, once the Dao fire reached Level Six, ordinary materials would not be able to upgrade it. There were quite a few ways to upgrade Level Six Dao fires by not using ordinary materials. The best material were flames. It was only when the Dao fire devoured a heaven-earth flame that it would be able to continue upgrading.

Di Jiu was currently searching for Heaven-Earth Unique Flames instead of a Geocentric Flame Crystal.

The Geocentric Flame Crystal was sold for 176,000 high-grade Spirit Stones. Compared to the price of the Plane Split Talisman, the price of the Geocentric Flame Crystal was way lower.

Di Jiu noticed that only cultivators staying in cabins were bidding for the Geocentric Flame Crystal. No one inside the hall placed a bid.

Di Jiu naturally did not believe that none of the many people in the auction hall had any flames. They most likely dared not bid out of fear of being targeted by others as a result.

It was much better that he had obtained the Plane Split Talisman.

The third item was a Spirit Rive Elixir, which was considered an expensive elixir. The appearance of this elixir truly made the entire auction house start bidding like crazy.

Di Jiu did not participate in the bidding war. He was currently at the third-stage Void Spirit Realm, so he did not need the Spirit Rive Elixir yet.

Various Dharma treasures and cultivation techniques were auctioned after the Spirit Rive Elixir. The standards of this auction were indeed very high, for all auction items were of good quality.

Unfortunately, Di Jiu was not interested in any of them. He still possessed a Vast Sword Array Art that he had yet to start cultivating.

The first day of the auction had ended. Di Jiu had purchased a Plane Split Talisman as soon as the auction had begun. The Plane Split Talisman was also the item sold at the highest price so far at this auction.

As the second day of the auction was coming to a close, Di Jiu was alerted by the movement of the Dao fire in his dantian while he was tempering his Spiritual Force.

Tai Yan was holding onto a black box covered with restrictions. Due to the movement of his Dao fire, Di Jiu knew that the content of this box would be very useful to him.

Tai Yan lifted the black box he was holding and shouted, “The auction has not ended. In my hands is the second most precious treasure after the Plane Split Talisman. I believe that some of you have heard that inside this box is a complete flame. This flame is called the Shallow Fiend Flame...”

As expected, Tai Yan’s words immediately caused everyone in the hall to get agitated. This was not an average item after all. A flame was a treasure everyone wanted to have.

Fire-element cultivators wanted it even more. Anyone who obtained a flame would experience a significant strength increase. Even if one was not a fire-element cultivator, alchemy, blacksmithing and talisman Dao also required using flames. Furthermore, certain magic techniques and divine powers required flame complementation.

No matter how much this kind of item cost, people would always compete over it.

Di Jiu sighed silently when he heard that this was a flame. He wanted it as well. Unfortunately, it was not something he could afford.

Di Jiu had never considered taking the points he had earned from the Five Continent Dao Pagoda. The moment he did that, he would be exposing his identity. Furthermore, he did not know what the exchange rate of Five Continent Dao Pagoda points and the Spirit Stones was.

“This Shallow Fiend Flame can be upgraded. I believe that everyone understands its value. The starting bid of this flame is 50 million high-grade Spirit Stones. Every bid raise should be no lower than 500,000 high-grade Spirit Stones...”

Almost as soon as Tai Yan stopped speaking, the price on the bidding panel soared to 100 million.

Di Jiu sighed. This auction spanned over three days. He had originally intended to wait till the auction ended to compete for the 1,000-Year Stalagmite Pith. However, after seeing the price of the Shallow Fiend Flame, Di Jiu gave up on this unrealistic notion. He possessed less than 200,000 high-grade Spirit Stones. The 1,000-Year Stalagmite Pith was the finale item. How could he possibly compete for a finale item if he could not even afford a flame during the duration of the auction?

It was time to leave!

After realizing that his Spirit Stones were insufficient, Di Jiu opened the restrictions and left without hesitation. Entering was prohibited during the auction, but exiting was not.

Han Qingyi was always watching Di Jiu. She would absolutely not let him take the Plane Split Talisman away. It was something she had to have. However, she had not expected that Di Jiu would remain in his seat and do nothing else after obtaining the Plane Split Talisman. The fella in seat No. 39 in the 116th row did not bid again, even though two and a half days had passed.

If her Spiritual Force had not been trained on Di Jiu’s seat the entire time, she would have thought that Di Jiu had left.

She had not expected that a flame would be sold during this auction. She might be a genius and an inherited-teachings disciple, but she did not possess any flames.

Thus, this flame immediately attracted her attention. She had to pool together sufficient Spirit Stones and obtain that flame, no matter what.

Unfortunately, she had only brought 670,000 high-grade Spirit Stones with her. She had already lost a bid to Di Jiu. Otherwise, the amount of Spirit Stones she possessed would have been less than 10,000.

If she was left with no choice, she would have to borrow some Spirit Stones from the Prophecy Pavilion. She came from an ancient sect of the True Dominion, so the Prophecy Pavilion would surely help her.

Had that weakling left?

Han Qingyi’s face sank. Her Spiritual Force had only left that seat for a few breaths, yet that weakling had left?

Han Qingyi lifted her head and looked at the flame. Its price had soared to 130 million. She gritted her teeth and rushed out of the cabin. The flame might be important, but the Plane Split Talisman was even more significant.

Although Di Jiu had assumed that Han Qingyi would not let him off, he was not afraid. Han Qingyi was at the Ekayāna Tripod Realm at best. Once he left the Five Continent City, he would escape.

Di Jiu found it strange that Han Qingyi did not rush out as soon as he left the auction house. If she did not take him seriously, he would not wait for her.

Di Jiu used the Spiritual Force escape technique before leaving the entrance of the auction venue.

By the time Han Qingyi arrived at the auction house entrance, he had already left. Her Spiritual Force enveloped the entire area, but Di Jiu had unfortunately already disappeared.

...

When he returned to his lodging, Di Jiu instantly removed his disguise and put the two Plane Split Talismans into the Small World.

A day passed. Di Jiu believed that the auction had already ended. Thus, he left the grotto-heaven and headed to the Five Continent Square.

After offending Han Qingyi, Di Jiu no longer intended to keep entering reclusive cultivation inside the Five Continent City. He would have left the Five Continent City the previous day, were it not for the fact that he was currently carrying a bomb.

It was out of complete helplessness that Di Jiu went to the Five Continent Square this time. He had even put his Heavenly Aqua Saber into the Small World. Although he was still carrying a red embellished saber on his back, this was not the Heavenly Aqua Saber.

What he wished for the most right now was that Han Qingyi would find him and teach him a lesson. It would be best if she took his ring. Inside this ring were 10,000 high-grade Spirit Stones and only about 100,000 middle-grade Spirit Stones.

If Han Qingyi taught him a lesson and took his ring away, the news would definitely reach Shu Haolan’s ears. Since the Void Lattice Elixir had not been taken by him willingly, there should be no problem with that.

Unfortunately, as Di Jiu walked around, Han Qingyi seemed to have disappeared. Di Jiu sighed. Would he have to return and re-enter seclusion?

“You’re the Young Master Red Embellishment called Di Jiu who loves to give advice?” said a cold voice as a rainbow-robed man landed in front of Di Jiu.

With a sweep of his Spiritual Force, Di Jiu discovered that this person’s cultivation level was at the late-stage Pioneer Sea Realm. After wandering in the Five Continent Square for a long time, he was now waiting for Han Qingyi to come and bully him. Han Qingyi did not appear, but another fella had appeared instead.

“That’s right. I am Young Master Di Jiu. Who are you?” Di Jiu’s voice was loud and his attitude was arrogant.

“I’m Ren Hai. I’ve come here to demand some advice from you. You have previously given my blood-related cousin a piece of advice that resulted in my two blood-related cousins’ deaths in the Herald Night Lake...” the rainbow-robed cultivator said coolly and haughtily. Unfortunately, his triangle-shaped eyes destroyed his haughty image.

After hearing the name of the Herald Night Lake, Di Jiu came to a realization. This fella was a blood-related brother of Ren Bafei. Although it was said that he was on the Sea Roll, his ranking was unknown.

Di Jiu sighed silently. If this had happened outside the Five Continent City, he would definitely have fought tooth and nail with Ren Hai so that he could see the distance between him and the apex geniuses of the Small Central World.

Unfortunately, for the sake of the Void Lattice Elixir, he could only give up on that idea.

“So you are the elder brother of that good-for-nothing Ren Bafei. I killed that punk. Do you have a death wish as well?” Di Jiu side-eyed Ren Hai with a provoking demeanor.

Bloodlust flashed in Ren Hai’s eyes as a violent aura crushed towards Di Jiu. Di Jiu had seen Dong Youjian fight before, so he knew that no person on the Sea Roll was weak.

Although he was not aware of Ren Hai’s ranking, if he was on the Sea Roll, his strength could not be too shabby.

Di Jiu was silently astonished when Ren Hai’s aura moved down towards him. This fella was not as strong as he had expected. This level of aura was nothing.

Fortunately, Di Jiu knew why he had come to the Five Continent Square. Now that he had finally found Ren Hai, he would not let go of this opportunity to get bullied. His face turned pale when Ren Hai’s aura crushed towards him. Meanwhile, his forehead started to glisten with cold sweat.

“What are you trying to do?” asked Di Jiu apprehensively.
