Chapter 37: Jun Mengqing's Temptation, Taiyin Celestial Gold!
After the Angel Cauldron, a young girl carried a zitan tray onto the Xuanhuang Jade Platform. On the tray was a small Cauldron, which looked unremarkable and showed no signs of age.
Auctioneer: "Everyone, this small Cauldron is not a Magic Treasure, nor is it an ancient divine weapon, but it is more precious than anything before it, because it is a World Guide!"
"World Guide!"
Everyone was shocked, even Gu Shengge was no exception. Jun Mengqing, who was beside him, stared intently at the small Cauldron, her enchanting face showing a hint of excitement.
It was actually a World Guide!
The so-called World Guide, also known as the Guide to Return, can help Cultivators who embark on the World Path to an unknown world accurately find their way back home.
As for the World Path, it is a path opened by Cultivators to perfect their inner world and leave the Vast Expanse Great World.
When Cultivators reach the Soul Transformation Realm, they open their Purple Mansion, and when they reach the Void Refining Realm, the Purple Mansion within their body needs to transform from an illusory Secret Realm into a real world.
This process is extremely complicated, so ancient Cultivators thought of a method: directly refine a world and integrate it into their own Purple Mansion, thereby transforming it into an inner world.
But this method doesn't work in the Vast Expanse Great World. If you dare to 'dig the world's flesh,' the Heavenly Dao will definitely send down heavenly retribution and turn you into ashes.
So ancient Cultivators opened the World Path, left the Azure Expanse, went outside the world, and refined other Small Worlds to form their own inner worlds.
However, once outside the world, it's easy to get lost on the way back, and thus the World Guide was born.
The creation of the World Guide is also very complex, and it is a one-time use item, which makes World Guides scarce and priceless.
"This World Guide starts at one hundred thousand Top-Grade Spirit Stones. Everyone, please bid freely!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Jun Mengqing was the first to bid.
"Two hundred thousand Top-Grade Spirit Stones!"
"Two hundred fifty thousand!"
"Three hundred thousand!"
"Five hundred thousand!"
"........."
Such frantic bidding made Gu Shengge turn his head to look at Jun Mengqing.
He hadn't realized this little fox was also a rich woman.
However, he then thought that Jun Mengqing was backed by Qingqiu and the Jietian Sect, with deep foundations. Even ten Qiankun Taoist Sects couldn't compare, so it was normal for her to have many Spirit Stones.
Ultimately, the World Guide was acquired by Jun Mengqing for one million two hundred thousand Top-Grade Spirit Stones.
Seeing that Jun Mengqing obtained the World Guide, Gu Shengge smiled and said, "Saintess Jun, I wonder if I could borrow this World Guide for a bit of research later?"
Upon hearing this, Jun Mengqing did not hesitate at all and softly said, "Since Benefactor is interested in this World Guide, why not just give it to Benefactor?"
"I appreciate Saintess Jun's kindness. I am merely curious about this World Guide and wish to study it."
Gu Shengge politely declined Jun Mengqing's kind offer. He could not accept a treasure worth over a million Top-Grade Spirit Stones.
Moreover, as long as he used the jade disc of creation to understand the manufacturing principle of the World Guide, he could make them himself.
At that time, he would have as many World Guides as he wanted, and Spirit Stones would flow in like water.
Jun Mengqing, who was rejected once again, still maintained her smile on the surface, but a hint of annoyance arose in her heart.
I've shown you goodwill so many times, and even fed you, why are you so clueless!
Am I not pretty enough? Or do I not meet your aesthetic standards!
The more she thought, the more aggrieved Jun Mengqing felt.
To think that she, as the Young Emperor of Qingqiu and Holy Maiden of Jietian, had suitors stretching from Qiongsang to Xihuang, and every single one of them was obedient to her.
Yet, Gu Shengge was different. He seemed close and intimate, but always maintained a certain distance.
Jun Mengqing looked at Gu Shengge's profile, secretly cheering herself on.
I don't believe I can't win you over!
The auction house was constantly changing. In the blink of an eye, more than a dozen items were sold. During this time, Gu Shengge made two bids and acquired two spiritual Materials.
Five Elements Essence Gold and Cangming Stone.
Jun Mengqing saw that Gu Shengge was bidding on Artifact Refining Materials and wondered if he wanted to refine a Lifebound Treasure?
Thinking of this, she immediately had a new idea.
"Benefactor, you haven't refined your Lifebound Treasure yet, have you?"
Gu Shengge nodded upon hearing this, not deliberately concealing anything.
The next second, a piece of immortal gold, like a bright moon emitting a clear, cold moonlight, shimmering with silver light, and shaped like a jade rabbit, appeared in Jun Mengqing's hand. The Taiyin Dao rhyme permeated it, making it extraordinarily divine.
"Taiyin Celestial Gold!"
Gu Shengge's eyes narrowed, and surprise welled up in the depths of his double pupils. He recognized the true form of the immortal gold in Jun Mengqing's hand at a glance.
Taiyin Celestial Gold and Sun Immortal Gold are collectively known as Yin and Yang Immortal Gold. The two are mutually generative and mutually restrictive. If these two great immortal golds are melted into a single artifact, the resulting artifact is not simply one plus one equals two.
"Benefactor, this piece of Taiyin Celestial Gold was obtained by me through a fortunate Opportunity. It's useless in my hands, so why not gift it to Benefactor to help you."
Jun Mengqing looked at Gu Shengge with a smile, a hint of triumph flashing in her eyes.
Little trick, I don't believe you can refuse again.
Indeed, facing the temptation of Taiyin Celestial Gold, Gu Shengge found it genuinely difficult to refuse.
Looking at that piece of Taiyin Celestial Gold, Gu Shengge fell silent.
Jun Mengqing was like a fisherman, using the Taiyin Celestial Gold as bait, pulling the fishing line while tempting him, and constantly urging in her heart~
Bite! Bite!
"Then many thanks, Saintess Jun."
After much thought, Gu Shengge still chose to bite Jun Mengqing's bait; he desperately needed this Taiyin Celestial Gold.
Even though he knew Jun Mengqing deliberately brought it out to lure him, such a big bait was hard to resist!
After all, immortal gold is a rare find.
The auction at Xuantian Tower was nearing its end, and no top-tier Artifact Refining spiritual Materials had appeared yet. It would be too regrettable to miss the Taiyin Celestial Gold!
Moreover, Jun Mengqing had been showing him goodwill. Refusing once or twice was fine, but refusing too many times would be counterproductive.
Seeing Gu Shengge reach out and take the Taiyin Celestial Gold, Jun Mengqing's lips curled into a slight smile, harder to suppress than a pig being slaughtered for the New Year.
I knew you couldn't refuse!
Jun Mengqing: "As long as Benefactor needs it, that's good. If you still lack any Materials for refining your Lifebound Treasure, just tell me, and I will help you find them."
"Then many thanks, Saintess."
Gu Shengge nodded and then turned to look at the auction hall. At this moment, the last item was brought up, which was an ancient talisman.
The auctioneer's face turned red with excitement, his composure completely gone in front of this ancient talisman.
"Everyone, today's final auction item has appeared. I'm sure everyone has already seen the catalog, right? That's right, it is the True Spirit Reincarnation Immortal Talisman!"
True Spirit Reincarnation Immortal Talisman!
Countless Cultivators stared intently at the ancient talisman, and some even seemed eager to make a move and directly snatch it.
Swish!!
Two figures appeared beside the ancient talisman, their Aura vast and imposing. They were clearly two Nascent Divinity Celestial Beings.
Gu Shengge looked at the True Spirit Reincarnation Immortal Talisman but was not interested. Even if it were given to him, it wouldn't be of much use.
The so-called True Spirit Reincarnation is actually a method of Possession, but compared to ordinary Possession, it is more thorough, more perfect, and it is a passive Possession.
Once a Cultivator holding the True Spirit Reincarnation Immortal Talisman dies, the Immortal Talisman will activate, thereby carrying the Cultivator's True Spirit to reincarnate into the person chosen beforehand for Possession.
It seems very convenient, but there is one drawback.
That is, it will merge with the True Spirit of the person being possessed. In that case, is the person who performs the Possession still themselves?
Even if Gu Shengge were to perform Possession, he would not choose this seemingly perfect method that secretly harbored hidden dangers.
