89: Nantianmen

"I'll offer two spiritual origin crystals, fellow daoist, how about taking me to the VIP seats?"

"Only two spiritual origin crystals? I'll offer three, fellow daoist, take me."

"Five, nobody snatch it from me."

"..."

As soon as the Weren guard said he could bring one more person, the people queuing behind became anxious and started bidding for the spot.

Li Haotian was a little confused, but since he could earn spiritual origin crystals, he was quite happy.

"Since that's the case, the highest bidder wins. You can make your offers, but you only have thirty breaths of time, don't block others."

The guard glanced at Li Haotian, nodded slightly, and said, "Then I'll also take a break."

The guard on the other side didn't say anything and also stopped.

"Ten spiritual origin crystals, I offer ten."

"Twelve!"

"Fifteen, this is the highest price, if you increase the price, I won't."

"Twenty spiritual origin crystals!"

A female voice came over, and everyone made way. A Pink Robed woman in her early twenties appeared before everyone's eyes.

The woman wore a pink veil, concealing her face, but her graceful figure and ethereal aura made many cultivators look at her a few more times.

Although it's said that there are no ugly women in cultivation, not everyone possesses this kind of aura.

The guard didn't say anything and looked at Li Haotian.

Li Haotian nodded and said, "Thirty breaths are up. If there's no higher price, then it will be this immortal spirit."

No one spoke. The Pink Robed woman walked over and said with a smile, "Greetings, fellow daoist. feminine cultivator Chu Hongyan, thank you for your trouble, fellow daoist."

Li Haotian waved his hand and said, "Let's go, we'll talk after we go in first, don't make the senior uncomfortable."

He found that in Great Wu City, his cultivation was too low. Deity transformation cultivators appeared at every turn, and occasionally a few experts in the Refining Void Realm would appear, making him feel very insignificant.

Chu Hongyan's cultivation shown before him was also at the peak of deity transformation, much stronger than him.

VIP seats number three hundred. There happened to be three seats here, one main seat and two side seats.

Li Haotian walked straight to the main seat and sat down. Chu Hongyan didn't hesitate and sat on the side seat on the left, while Wenwen was a little constrained.

"Please sit down, Miss Wenwen. Since you're here, don't stand there blocking others' view."

"Pfft!"

Chu Hongyan couldn't help but laugh. Everyone present was cultivators, how could their vision be blocked?

Although she knew Li Haotian was giving the little girl a way out, she still couldn't help but laugh.

Hearing this, Wenwen quickly sat down, looking at Li Haotian somewhat awkwardly, and then at Chu Hongyan.

Chu Hongyan took out twenty spiritual origin crystals, casually tossed them to Li Haotian, and said with a smile, "Thank you for bringing me in, these are your spiritual origin crystals."

Li Haotian took the spiritual origin crystals and asked in confusion, "May I ask why you spent so much money to purchase a spot in the VIP seats?"

Chu Hongyan was slightly surprised, her cherry lips slightly parted, and she said, "Fellow daoist doesn't know?"

Li Haotian shook his head and said, "This is my first time in Ten Thousand Mountains, I don't know."

Chu Hongyan suddenly realized and said, "Fellow daoist has great means, obtaining a VIP token on your first visit to Ten Thousand Mountains."

"There are great benefits to entering these VIP seats. Fellow daoist, do you know what the most famous place in Witchcraft city is?"

Li Haotian shook his head and said, "I don't know about that."

Wenwen interjected, "Is the senior talking about South Heaven Gate?"

"South Heaven Gate?" Li Haotian asked with some confusion.

Li Haotian didn't know what this South Heaven Gate was, but the name was quite imposing. In the myths of his previous life, the gate of the heavenly court was called South Heaven Gate.

Could it be that this South Heaven Gate has some connection with the myths of his previous life?

Chu Hongyan smiled and said, "Actually, South Heaven Gate is just a name. It's actually a space rift. It is said that through the space rift, one can go to the legendary immortal realm."

"There are a total of five rifts in this world, namely South Heaven Gate, North Heaven Gate, East Heaven Gate, West Heaven Gate, and Zhongtian Gate."

"No one knows if you can reach the immortal world through the rifts, but there are indeed many benefits in the Five Great Heavenly Gates."

"Every three thousand years, a trace of high-level energy will dissipate from the great heavenly gates. This energy is very gentle and can cleanse the body, making one more suitable for cultivation. We call this energy immortal qi."

"Some powerful beings have extracted this immortal qi and compressed it into spiritual jade, allowing people to absorb it directly."

"The South Heaven Gate rift is relatively small, producing three hundred traces every three thousand years, which can generate three hundred immortal spirit jade. My goal is the immortal spirit jade."

Li Haotian really didn't understand what immortal spirit jade had to do with the VIP seats.

Chu Hongyan continued, "The VIP seats have a great relationship with the immortal spirit jade. Only by entering the VIP seats can you participate in the immortal spirit jade auction."

So that's how it is!

Li Haotian instantly understood. This auction wasn't something you could enter just by having money; you also had to enter the VIP seats.

Li Haotian looked at the eight hundred VIP seats here. Didn't that mean only two thousand four hundred people could enter the auction?

"Two thousand four hundred people competing for three hundred immortal spirit jade, I'm afraid it will be a fierce battle, right?"

Chu Hongyan rolled her eyes and said, "Who told you there are only over two thousand people? Don't you know there are some privileged individuals in this world?"

"Adding those individuals, the total number of people who can enter the auction on the South Heaven Gate side will reach five thousand."

Li Haotian suddenly realized. So there were privileged groups everywhere, and the cultivation world was no exception. After all, this was a world where the strong were respected.

"So that's how it is, thank you for your guidance, immortal spirit."

Chu Hongyan shook her head and said, "You're welcome, I also have to thank you for your VIP seat."

Li Haotian nodded slightly and didn't continue to thank her. Instead, he looked around.

He found that the cultivation of the cultivators here was basically above deity transformation, and there were quite a few in the Refining Void Realm.

"System, use one spiritual origin crystal to convert it into spiritual stone for me, and then upgrade the puppet to the peak of refining void."

Li Haotian didn't feel safe. With so many strong people around, only a puppet at the peak of refining void could make him feel safer.

"Ding, enhancement successful, consumed 1.5 billion spiritual stone, congratulations to the host for obtaining a puppet at the peak of refining void."

Li Haotian breathed a sigh of relief. At this moment, he finally had some confidence.

With confidence in his heart, he also had the mood to look at the surrounding situation.

There were mostly Miao and Weren people here, and the rest were strong people from other races. There were even demon clan present.

Li Haotian didn't look much, just felt a little surprised that not a single cultivator from Tiannan Cultivation World had entered the VIP seats.

As expected, it was a barren land, without even the qualification for a VIP seat. They probably didn't even know about the existence of South Heaven Gate.

"Dong!"

A drum sounded, and everyone fell silent.

Two figures appeared on the central platform, one was a Miao person and the other was a Weren person. Judging from the aura emanating from them, they were both in the Refining Void Realm.

Chu Hongyan sighed and said, "Witchcraft and Gu Sect are quite courageous, sending out strong individuals at the early stage of refining void right away."

Li Haotian's eyes narrowed slightly, and he said with a smile, "This is probably to deter some people with malicious intentions."

"If South Heaven Gate is real, then Witchcraft and Gu Sect being able to guard South Heaven Gate shows that the two sects are very powerful. Only in this way can they prevent people from coveting South Heaven Gate, this fragrant pie."

Originally, Li Haotian was going to say cake, but there was no cake in this world, so he could only use pie instead.

Chu Hongyan looked at Li Haotian deeply and said with a smile, "That's not bad. Witchcraft and Gu Sect have a long history, and no one knows how deep their foundation is."

"It is said that there are even half-immortals who have survived the celestial tribulation in the two sects. As for whether that's true, feminine cultivator doesn't know either."
