Chapter 2281 - 2284: Auction City

"I've spent many years in the Spiritual Domain, and I'm quite clear about who can become my allies and who my enemies."

"Additionally, when it comes to judging people, my eye doesn't falter. I chose Qin Tian from the Spiritual Domain based on comprehensive considerations. Originally, I thought about bringing my disciple to the Immortal Domain, but admittedly, Qin Tian is more suitable. I can say this: in the entire Spiritual Domain, the one most fit to come to the Immortal Domain and give me a hand is none other than Qin Tian alone."

Xuanyuan Shenyue spoke leisurely, an immense confidence adorning his face.

Then, his eyes fixed on Qiuye Yuan, he said: "Like an old steed, my will is still strong even at my age; as a warrior ages, his spirit remains unyielding. Ye Yuan, it's been thirty years, right? I've endured for thirty years and even went to the Spiritual Domain to heal! Haha, thirty years have passed, and many things I thought I'd let go... until I realized I couldn't let them go after all... Haha... humans... always like to deceive themselves."

Qiuye Yuan said: "Seventh Young Master, no need to talk more. You've returned to the Immortal Domain, and that says everything. The past might have been unfair to you, but now, you need to start again, rebuild. As your old friend, I'm willing to lend you a hand."

"Good brother!"

...

Half a day of flight, Qin Tian followed Guo Yunxiu and a few others, traveling at least ten thousand kilometers in the Immortal Domain.

The mountains, rivers, and wondrous cities of the Immortal Domain appeared before his eyes, granting Qin Tian a firsthand broadened horizon.

The tall mountains of the Immortal Domain soared to at least ten thousand meters, with waterfalls sometimes flowing through the air, making things seem utterly incredible.

The cities of the Immortal Domain, some built in the sky, others on cliffs, some even merged with massive mountain ranges, are constructed together, appearing mysterious and enchanting.

Of course, beneath these cities are various Cave Heaven Blessed Lands, visible and invisible, it's said this world holds things only beyond imagination, nothing else.

Qin Tian even saw beasts resembling dinosaurs, leaving one speechless, yet Lu Tianlin and the others seemed unfazed.

"Such a novice!"

Wang Ping couldn't help but mock the way Qin Tian looked around wide-eyed.

Up ahead, Lu Tianlin began descending, and the four of them followed him, landing on a city built atop a rainbow.

This rainbow existed throughout all seasons!

A small city was built atop the rainbow, colorful and surrounded by a powerful True Qi Shield, ensuring it remains untouched by outside disturbances.

"Brother Lu, why are we going to Rainbow City?"

Once landed, Guo Yunxiu curiously asked Lu Tianlin, "It's said Rainbow City is an Auction City, most people here come to auction items or purchase treasures. We're here to..."

"Just follow, so many words!"

Lu Tianlin directly retorted, dismissing Guo Yunxiu's curiosity, seemingly showing not even Guo Yunxiu any kindness.

Guo Yunxiu awkwardly fell silent, following Lu Tianlin into Rainbow City.

"Entry ticket is ten thousand High Grade Spirit Stones per person. No stones, no entrance."

At Rainbow City's gate, a stern-looking elder said.

Beside him stood an eight-member Guard Team, formidable, their strength seemingly profound.

Rainbow City, one of the auction cities in the Immortal Domain, as Lu Tianlin was about to pay the stones, Chen Bo quickly tried to flatter him: "Brother Lu, please go in, I'll pay the stones."

"I'll pay for theirs together..."

Chen Bo spoke to a soldier collecting stones, while fetching the stones, but hadn't finished speaking when he saw Qin Tian also entering, turning his face: "Qin Tian, pay your own, quickly hand over the stones! Qin Tian, stand still!"

Chen Bo made a mistake, leading the soldier to let Lu Tianlin's four in, Qin Tian sneaked in as well, and Chen Bo nearly burst with anger, and even when calling Qin Tian, he didn't respond, further embarrassing him.

"Qin Tian, a thousand stones, hand them over, I paid your ticket!"

After entering the city, Chen Bo hurried to Qin Tian, demanding the stones.

"I never asked you to pay," Qin Tian replied.

"But I paid, without me you couldn't enter!" Chen Bo retorted angrily.

Qin Tian chuckled: "Really? I could enter without paying stones, Brother Chen, go ask the soldiers for those stones back, since I didn't use yours, sorry."

"You!"

Seeing Qin Tian brush him off after speaking, Chen Bo turned red with anger, clenching his fists, muttering under his breath: "Fine, you wait! The adventure has just begun, you'll see later!"

...

Lu Tianlin seemed familiar with Rainbow City, heading straight to a grand Pagoda building in the city after entering.

The Pagoda's exterior was packed, clearly, something significant was occurring.

"Today inside, they're auctioning items I need, I plan to go in and secure them. You may choose to join me inside or wander Rainbow City, meet back at six in the evening at this Auction City's entrance, don't be late."

Arriving at the Pagoda Auction City entrance, Lu Tianlin said bluntly.

Chen Bo and Wang Ping immediately expressed their intent to follow Lu Tianlin into the Auction City.

Guo Yunxiu hesitated briefly and agreed to join them.

"I'll take a look inside too, first time here."

Qin Tian declared, genuinely curious about the Auction City, not simply going along.

Already at the entrance, he noticed numerous experts congregated here, not to mention Lu Tianlin intentionally taking a day to come to Rainbow City, clearly indicating the likelihood of treasures being auctioned today.

The Pagoda boasts seven floors, each level has over four auction halls, with more valuable items auctioned as one goes up.

Even upon reaching the fourth floor, every entrant must pay a fifty thousand High Grade Spirit Stone deposit.

This time the cost was huge, everyone had to bear it themselves.

Following Lu Tianlin, Qin Tian arrived at the sixth floor's central auction hall.

When they arrived, it was already packed, yet the auction hall surprisingly had private rooms encircling it, and Lu Tianlin seemingly prearranged one.

Five entered the private room, about ten minutes later, a tall beauty with long black hair in a purple peony-patterned qipao walked onto the auction podium, saying:

"Welcome esteemed guests to Pagoda Auction Hall, today at this sixth-floor central auction hall, some of the items being auctioned you may have heard of. Without further ado, my name is Mo Xi, today's auctioneer, let me first introduce the auction hall's rules..."
