Limitless - Chapter 225: Beat him up for me

Xu Xiaoxian’s recovery powers were great and she had many superior pills. That very night, the few of them left the lodge and returned to the Sky Dazed School.

There was no news from the Sky Auction Institution and all had been quiet.

It was almost like a dream.

But Chu Yu felt like an entire generation had passed.

Up till now, he could not believe that Xu Xiaoxian could use magical formations and an instrument to kill a Divine Lord as a Supreme Realm cultivator.

That was a Divine Lord!

Some of the most powerful in the universe!

They were adept in many sacred arts!

In comparison, Supreme Realm cultivators were like ants, able to be squashed extremely easily!

This was almost like an ant biting an elephant to death.

It was completely unbelievable.

Xu Xiaoxian told Chu Yu that many of the talents in the Mirror World were capable of this.

This made Chu Yu slightly depressed.

Right now, he could not even fight a True Lord, much less a Divine Lord.

Even though he could kill opponents of higher cultivation level, the difference between the Supreme Realm and the True Lord Realm was way too big!

Xu Xiaoxian looked at Chu Yu, "Actually, you don’t have to be too worried or depressed. For me to kill someone so powerful, I have to pay a heavy price."

"But you look okay?" Chu Yu looked at Xu Xiaoxian doubtfully.

He was not willing to use his vertical eye to look at her.

Xu Xiaoxian shook her head and a faint smile broke out over her face, "Let’s not talk about that. Anyways, relax, even though many had this ability, they would not use it easily. Actually, if you continue down this path of pill refining, you can have this ability in no time!"

"How do you know?" Chu Yu asked doubtfully.

The Immortal Crane Pill Scripture did have some terrifying pills, but he did not have the ability to refine them at the current moment.

"If a medicinal saint’s legacy doesn’t have such a technique, how can it be called saint?" Xu Xiaoxian said.

Chu Yu remembered that his Superclass could combine various techniques and make it uniquely his.

It could be that after the Superclass combines the various techniques, the combination could be equally awe inspiring.

Chu Yu had this feeling already, but he had not used them in battle so it was still untested at this point.

In the coming days, Xu Xiaoxian began to take to the stage.

For the main competition, one person could only compete in a maximum of five rounds.

This rule was set in place because the top schools could have one talent who could defeat everyone. That would make the competition meaningless.

However, Xu Xiaoxian could morph into anyone, so this rule didn’t apply to her.

The Purple Cloud School, from the principal to the students, was quite accommodating.

However, after seeing Xu Xiaoxian win match after match, the initially unhappy students began to understand that she was the best candidate.

At this point, all of the schools were going for lethal strikes.

Injury and death became a daily occurrence.

Even though the students had made preparations for this previously, they all hesitated when faced with it.

None of their opponents were simple.

If there was someone powerful enough to represent them, they could avoid the threat of death.

As such, over the next few days, the Purple Cloud School’s points increased drastically.

It skyrocketed!

By the middle of the main competition, they were already ranked 68!

They had squashed both the Sword Rain School and the Wafting Fragrance School!

Before this, these two schools respected the Purple Cloud School because of Chu Yu. However, now, they were all completely stunned.

The Purple Cloud School was too vicious!

Everyone on social media was shocked.

An initially unranked school in 400 place not only managed to get into the top 100, but also managed to get so far ahead.

Based on their trend, no one could say for sure how high the Purple Cloud School could go.

　

"They are really a terrifying dark horse in this edition of the interschool championships!"

"In the preliminaries, the Purple Cloud School’s battle section was just mediocre. They only managed to get through because of their pill refining section. Even though their final ranking was not low, most of their points came from their pill refining section. I never expected them to have such an explosive showing in the main competition!"

"

"If not for the fact that we saw these people in the preliminaries before, I would have suspected that they hired people to represent them!"

"If these were hired guns, I doubt even a superior school can afford them?"

The discussion on the Purple Cloud School did not abate, both in the Sky Dazed School and on social media.

Even the principal was astounded and came to look for Chu Yu in private.

"Where did you find such a powerful person? Also, her appearance changing technique is too good, she can be both male and female..."

The Human Form Changing Technique was at least a saint level technique.

It came from the Solar System!

Few in the Mirror World knew about this technique.

Chu Yu smiled, "A friend."

The principal sighed, then fidgeted, "I think this ranking... is enough? From now on, even if we lose every round, we can also be assured of a superior school spot."

Chu Yu glanced at him, "Aren’t your expectations... too low?"

"No, but this is too obvious." The Principal sighed, "When we go back, our students do not have such powers. When this is revealed, even if the Alliance of Schools doesn’t take any action, we will lose terribly in the next edition!"

　　

Chu Yu smiled, "It is a long time to the next competition. This time is enough for us to groom a batch of talents."

The Principal smiled and shook his head, Do you really think it is that simple?

Talents are not so easy to groom.

However, he remembered how Sensei Song had brought up the pill refining section, it was too scary!

Based on this trend, the pill refining section should be able to ensure that the Purple Cloud School remains as a superior school.

As for the battle section, if they can’t make it... then they won’t be sent.

Else, they will really be killed by the others.

The principal said his goodbyes and left, not attempting to convince Chu Yu anymore.

In actual fact, the ranking was of little importance to Chu Yu.

However, Xu Xiaoxian wanted a top 50 placing!

Else, to Chu Yu, a top 100 placing would have been sufficient.

Through the incident at the Sky Auction Institution, Chu Yu’s impression of Xu Xiaoxian had changed greatly.

He really did not care if she was from a demonic cult.

As time went by, the interschool championships was also coming to an end.

The Purple Cloud School had also reached the top 50!

They were exactly 50th.

This ranking made them a tier three school.

The entire Mirror World erupted and social media was flooded with news about the Purple Cloud School.

As for the Purple Cloud School and the Song Country... the celebrations were already beginning, and they were only getting bigger and bigger each day.

Everyone was incredibly excited even though many of them who were privy to the Purple Cloud School wondered how the battle section suddenly became so terrifying.

They managed to go toe to toe with the students from the superior schools.

However, their excitement trumped their doubts and suspicions.

Who cares, our school is now a superior school!

After the competition for the day ended, Xu Xiaoxian came looking for Chu Yu, her expression cheeky.

"What’s up?"

Chu Yu had been busy with the pill refining section’s challenges. Now, the opponents were getting stronger and stronger, so Chu Yu had to teach them more superior knowledge on the fly.

It is a good thing the kids from the pill refining section were living up to their own expectations. They had yet to lose a match!

Such a result was quite extraordinary.

Even without Xu Xiaoxian’s participation, the Purple Cloud had the confidence of becoming a superior school.

In fact, getting into the top 100, or even the top 80... would not be difficult!

As such, Chu Yu was incredibly proud of his students.

"Tomorrow, my opponent, is Leng Ao."

Xu Xiaoxian looked at Chu Yu, "Do you want me to kill him?"

Leng Ao?

The number one youthful expert of the Divine Warfare School!

It was said that his power was at the pinnacle of the Supreme Realm, he was on the verge of breaking through into the True Lord Realm!

He was quite the powerful talent.

There were few who were as good as him, even in the tier one schools.

Since the beginning of the competition, all of Leng Ao’s opponents were either dead or injured.

Those who were lucky enough to survive were also scarred for life.

Social media was deeming Leng Ao as a maniac with vicious techniques!

He didn’t seem to come here to compete, he was here to kill.

News that Lin Shi had become the Butterfly Dance Immortal’s disciple had already gotten out.

Some news about Lin Shi’s past had also been revealed.

But it was not news.

As such, even though people were not happy about Leng Ao’s killing spree, they knew that it was not without reason.

Thus, they tried to accept it.

But, that was the masses.

Chu Yu was not going to let him off!

"Don’t kill him." Chu Yu said, "Leave that to me!’

"You want to take the stage?" Xu Xiaoxian looked at Chu Yu, "This man is very powerful..."

Chu Yu rolled his eyes.

Xu Xiaoxian added, "Under normal circumstances, I may not even be his match."

　

"And you want to help me kill him?" Chu Yu rolled his eyes.

"Don’t forget, I can kill a Divine Lord!’ Xu Xiaoxian said.

"You dare to show those abilities here?" Chu Yu’s mouth twitched.

Then he looked at Xu Xiaoxian, "But I must say that it’s a little weird that there hasn’t been any news from the Sky Auction Institution."

Xu Xiaoxian laughed coldly, "It’s not weird at all!’

"Hmm?"

Xu Xiaoxian continued, "Zhuo Fan is not a man who trusts easily. As such, he takes many precautions. He is not called Master Zhuo without reason. No matter what he does, he will not leave a trace. Even though we were walking in the streets before entering, he had already erased traces of us the moment he made his decision."

Xu Xiaoxian looked at Chu Yu, "If you went to that slave trader now, he would never admit to having seen you! He would also deny the fact that he had sold Fang Lie to you."

"As for how you got Fang Lie’s token... haha, heaven knows how you got it."

"What I’m trying to tell you is, Zhuo Fan has the ability to remove every trace of what happened at the auction house."

"He did this because he had every confidence of beating us. But, he didn’t expect that we were so vicious."

Chu Yu glanced at her, "It was you."

"Okay, fine, I killed him." Xu Xiaoxian rolled her eyes and said, "As such, I am sure that most people don’t even know that Zhuo Fan is dead!"

"This is clearly his intelligence backfiring on him."

Xu Xiaoxian laughed coldly, "Do you know? Those people who work for him will immediately swallow a pill after the job is complete. The pill will erase their memory for the past few days!’

"Unless a saint turned back time, no trace of the memory can be found." Xu Xiaoxian said mockingly.

"But for a True Lord like Zhuo Fan... hehe, no one knows he made Divine Lord. Even if he was a Divine Lord, a saint would not find it worth it to help him."

"As such, the Sky Auction Institution is unlikely to find trouble with us."

Then, she looked at Chu Yu, "It’s a pity that you didn’t manage to auction off your True Soul Pills, but I guess it’s okay, you got quite a fortune in best quality spiritual stones."

Chu Yu looked at her, "It looks like you did your homework."

"That’s called knowing your enemy." Xu Xiaoxian looked at Chu Yu, "Even though I want revenge, I would never send myself to the grave!"

"Next time, don’t drag me along." Chu Yu was getting the shivers.

Xu Xiaoxian smiled, "I’ll think about it!"

Chu Yu, "…"

Then, Xu Xiaoxian looked at Chu Yu, "Be honest, do you want me to kill Leng Ao for you?"

Chu Yu shook his head, "Just beat him up for me."

Limitless - Chapter 224: Killing a Divine Lord

As he spoke, Zhuo Fan retrieved a small jade bottle and glanced at Chu Yu, "It’s not that I didn’t trust you, but one cannot be too trusting."

Zhuo Fan looked faintly at Xu Xiaoxian, "You should probably recognize this? As long as you put the pill inside, any poison will trigger an alarm."

Xu Xiaoxian’s voice was icy, "That is from my house!’

Zhuo Fan was expressionless.

　

Chu Yu was quite speechless, he really had no idea when Zhuo Fan had placed the pill inside.

　　

However, it was normal for him to not be able to notice the techniques and actions of a True Lord.

Chu Yu was quite frustrated. In all honesty, if he could help it, he would not want to be implicated in this. noveltranslationweb.blogspot.com
　　

Furthermore, he did not want to let Xu Xiaoxian know that the pills he refined had a ‘backdoor’.

However, if Zhuo Fan was really going to kill Xu Xiaoxian, he could not just stand back and watch.

Maybe... he would have to use that technique before he wanted to.

"Your house’s? Killing demons for the betterment of society is the mission of man!" Zhuo Fan said icily.

Xu Xiaoxian was not enraged by what Zhuo Fan said. She replied flatly, "The reason why I let you breakthrough to the Divine Lord Realm is because I want to let you experience it before killing you, making you feel inexplicable despair!"

She smiled at Zhuo Fan, "The pills are fine, but, I am not!"

Xu Xiaoxian stomped her foot on the ground as she spoke.

Hum!

The entire space exploded with a wave of energy.

It was like a tornado was in the room.

Chu Yu could instantly feel the space in the room changing.

　

He suddenly recalled that Xu Xiaoxian was incredibly skilled at magical formations!

At this point, the Divine Lord Zhuo Fan bellowed, raised his hand, and slapped Xu Xiaoxian.

He hollered icily, "Get over here!’

Two rays of light formed a cross in mid air.

The intersection point was Zhuo Fan’s hand!

"Ah!"

Zhuo Fan screamed in pain.

His hand was chopped off by the two rays of light!

Blood flowed out from his wrist.

His eyes revealed his disbelief.

"What’s going on?"

Zhuo Fan could not believe that he could be hurt by magical formations in his own territory.

Xu Xiaoxian said flatly, "Just now, whilst you were breaking through, I took a stroll and destroyed all your magical formations. Oh, to be exact, I didn’t destroy them, I just changed them..."

"You... how could you have changed the formations I set myself?" Zhuo Fan began to regenerate a new hand.

But he was pale, the process of regeneration required a large amount of Qi and blood.

Xu Xiaoxian laughed icily, "Are your magical formations very powerful? They are child’s play and easy to destroy! For someone like you, you will always remain a small fry! So what if you broke through to Legendary Emperor, much less Divine Lord?"

　　

Then, her hands flew over the invisible strings on the instrument.

The melody seemed quite pleasing to Chu Yu, but Zhuo Fan’s expression changed drastically as he exclaimed, "Heavenly Demon Tune... you know this... sh*t!"

Before he could finish, he spat out a mouthful of blood.

Then, his body exploded with terrifying Divine Lord powers as he tried to break through the formation and over towards Xu Xiaoxian.

Countless rays of light lit up in the space, locking him there.

　　

Xu Xiaoxian continued playing the tune maniacally.

Zhuo Fan kept spitting out mouthfuls of blood.

His eyes were filled with shock and terror. He shouted to Chu Yu, "Sensei Song, save my life and I will reward you handsomely, I will gift you a saint’s legacy!"

A recently formed Divine Lord cultivator was actually begging a Supreme Realm cultivator like Chu Yu. It was clear how desperate Zhuo Fan was.

Chu Yu sighed lightly, not speaking.

Xu Xiaoxian increased the tempo of the music.

Hum!

A terrifying hum pierced through the air.

Very quickly, Zhuo Fan’s Divine Lord body split into five parts!

The scene was horrifying!

But Xu Xiaoxian did not stop!

Zhuo Fan’s body might be in pieces, but he was not dead!

How could it be this easy to kill a Divine Lord?

A Nascent God rushed out from Zhuo Fan’s body. It was incredibly powerful and it bellowed in anger.

He was furious, unwilling to accept the fact that he was beaten!

As a Divine Lord, he had a long lifespan and an incredible grasp of the sacred arts.

Before he could enjoy the benefits of this realm, his body was smashed by someone else and his life was threatened.

Zhuo Fan’s Nascent God, clad in a grey armor and wielding a scythe made from energy, glowed with a bright light as it hacked at the magical formation

Boom!

Boom!

The immensely powerful magical formation kept attacking him, but it kept shuddering under each impact from his scythe!

This was an intense battle!

A Divine Lord’s last ditch attempt to save his own life!

Wa!

Xu Xiaoxian spat out a mouthful of blood, her face incredibly pale and devoid of blood.

But her eyes were steely and glowed with fury and hate.

Her hands never stopped moving.

The melody was lethal!

　

In the end, Zhuo Fan’s Nascent God was shattered by the melody.

Before Zhuo Fan died, he let out a pitiful roar.

He wanted to kill himself!

But it was no use, as the music became more intense, Zhuo Fan’s Nascent God shattered!

He could not escape his death.

Seeing Zhuo Fan’s life slip out of his body, Xu Xiaoxian turned around, her face devoid of color as she smiled at Chu Yu, "Sorry, this is my fault, quickly change your appearance and bring your slave out of here... they, definitely... cleansed all trace of us coming here."

"And you?" Chu Yu asked.

"I’m... fine!" Xu Xiaoxian used the last bit of energy she had to revert the space into the room she was. Then, she shakily retrieved a man’s clothing and changed her appearance into a man.

It was that helper from before!

Then, Xu Xiaoxian forced a smile at Chu Yu before fainting.

　

Chu Yu was speechless. He carried Xu Xiaoxian on his back and stepped out.

Clearly, Xu Xiaoxian had done her homework. Her prediction was spot on.

Other than a comatose man, there was no one else in sight!

Chu Yu walked over and used his vertical eye to observe his slave. He realized that he only had his acupoints and senses sealed and was not injured.

He broke the seals on this man.

The hulking man opened his eyes slowly and took on an offensive stance.

When he saw that it was Chu Yu, he relaxed and said slowly, "Someone, attacked, me."

Chu Yu nodded, then retrieved a black coat and a mask, "Let’s go!"

The hulking man wore the coat and mask and followed behind Chu Yu.

Chu Yu carried Xu Xiaoxian on his back and pushed open the doors to Sky Auction Instituion. After he stepped out, he realized the streets had become much quieter.

Chu Yu was slightly solemn as he brought the hulking man away.

Clearly, this auction institution was quite powerful.

No ordinary power could achieve such a result in such a short period of time.

Chu Yu did not return to the Sky Dazed School immediately. Instead, he found a lodge and stayed there.

He had the hulking man stand guard outside as he brought Xu Xiaoxian into the room. He retrieved a few healing pills and fed them to Xu Xiaoxian.

After a few moments, Xu Xiaoxian moaned and regained consciousness.

Seeing Chu Yu, she smiled, feeling at ease, and whispered, "Sorry, thank you!"

Chu Yu sighed, "It is weird for you to smile like that with the face of an auction helper!"

"Ah... is that so?" Xu Xiaoxian reverted to her original appearance.

Her exquisitely beautiful face came into view. Her face was still devoid of color.

Clearly, using the Heavenly Demon Instrument to play the Heavenly Demon Tune had taken its toll on her.

For a Supreme Realm cultivator to use a magical formation and music to kill a Divine Lord was completely horrifying!

"Is this appearance... better?" Xu Xiaoxian looked at Chu Yu weakly.

She had just regained some energy, and it was used to say that.

"..." Chu Yu rolled his eyes then said, "Shut up and rest. With your current state, you want to compete tomorrow?"

Xu Xiaoxian smiled, "I definitely can, trust me, no problem at all!"

Then, Xu Xiaoxian closed her eyes and slept.

Chu Yu turned around and saw his slave wearing his coat and standing guard at the door. He smiled and waved him over.

This man walked over and looked at Chu Yu.

"Sit."

Chu Yu pointed to a chair by the door.

The man shook his head, "I, stand."

"What is your name?" Chu Yu asked.

He found this man to be quite quizzical. As a Supreme Realm cultivator with Polar Blue Wolves blood running through his veins, he must be quite powerful.

Why was speaking so difficult for him?

"Fang Lie."

The man replied.

Chu Yu nodded, "Is it very difficult for you to speak?"

"Last time, I spoke, a different, language." The man looked at Chu Yu and explained with some difficulty.

Chu Yu suddenly realized that many languages were spoken in the Mirror World.

Before this, he had spent most of his time in the Purple Cloud and interacted mostly with humans, thus the difference was not so stark.

Just now, when walking on the streets of the Sky Dazed City, he already heard many different languages.

　　

Before this, Chu Yu was curious why the Mirror World conversed mostly in Mandarin.

He looked up ancient annals and found evidence that the Solar System was the Village of Cultivation, and Earth was the center of it all.

　　

On Earth, the largest civilisation, was China!

In the Tang and Song Dynasties, China was the center of the world, and many began to pick up Mandarin.

The same applied to all the cultivation worlds in the universe.

Whilst they despised and looked down on the Village of Cultivation, they learnt the language eagerly in hopes of one day becoming the leaders there.

Through his conversation with Fang Lie, Chu Yu found out that he had always lived in the polar regions of the Mirror World.

That was the hometown of the Polar Blue Wolves.

Ordinarily, people did not dare to antagonize the Polar Blue Wolves. However, some of the countries formed by their human brothers would go to war with their neighbours.

Fang Lie was one of the prisoners of war.

He had thought of suicide, but the enemy had used his family as hostage.

Fang Lie told Chu Yu that the slave peddlers were extremely shameless. After capturing them as slaves, they would kill all the old, weak, ill and crippled in their families.

"I want, revenge!"

Fang Lie’s eyes were filled with hatred.

Chu Yu patted his shoulders, "If I meet them one day, I will help you!"

Limitless - Chapter 223: Heavenly Demon Tune

Zhuo Fan stiffened slightly, amazement filling up his eyes, "Are you joking? This instrument... is an offensive magical equipment?"

"Haha, doesn’t Mr Zhuo know if this is an offensive magical equipment?" A glint of mockery flashed past Xu Xiaoxian’s eyes as she looked at Zhuo Fan.

"How would I know?" Zhuo Fan smiled bitterly, "Is there some misunderstanding?"

"Haha, How can there be a misunderstanding?" Xu Xiaoxian lowered her head, her white slender fingers flying over the stringless instrument.

A clear, melodious tune could be heard.

"This instrument was gained during an auction?"

Xu Xiaoxian said flatly, "Was it not gained when a group of you surrounded and attacked an innocent young couple? Of course, back then, you were still a small fry."

Zhuo Fan smiled bitterly, "What are you talking about? Why don’t I understand anything?"

When Chu Yu heard this, he began to understand what was going on.

He felt a headache, This demonic girl set him up again!

Xu Xiaoxian said flatly, "Ever since I said you’re holding on to some items that you don’t understand, I bet you already started to think about some things. Even though you can’t find anything suspicious from my face, you’ve always been someone extremely suspicious of others! Isn’t that right? Master Zhuo?"

Zhuo Fan smiled bitterly, shook his head, and sighed.

Xu Xiaoxian smiled slightly wider, "Of all the things you don’t understand, why did you choose this ionstrument? Furthermore, you activated your magical formations and broke through in front of us. It looked like you trusted us, but actually, you knew that cultivators at our level could not affect you."

"Furthermore, if we really dared to attack you at where you sat, we would immediately be killed by the magical formations."

"This place can’t even be penetrated by a Divine Lord. Are you still going to deny that you planned on keeping us here forever the moment I said I recognize that instrument?"

"Perhaps, by this time, any trace of us entering this place has been wiped clean?"

"Haha, Sky Auction Institution, you guys are great at grave robbing, but you’re even more adept at erasing traces of others!"

"As for that slave outside, you will get the token to control him later, so he will obey you. If you think that he’s a loose end, you will just kill him. With your current abilities, you think that you can make this flawless, don’t you?"

"As for how the sensei and student from the Purple Cloud School disappeared..."

Xu Xiaoxian’s mocking expression became deeper and deeper, "If I am not wrong, your people would have completely erased any trace of us coming here. Furthermore, two people with similar looks would pass by this auction house, then disappear from the Sky Dazed City... mm, and there would be a memory crystal which just happens to capture those two figures exiting."

Zhuo Fan frowned, then smiled bitterly, "Lady, why would you think this way? The reputation of the Sky Auction Institution precedes it! I see that your misunderstanding of us runs deep."

"Lady? Not demonic girl from a demonic cult?" Xu XIaoxian smiled.

At this point, Zhuo Fan’s messenger vibrated.

Zhuo Fan did not look at it. Instead, he sighed and glanced at Chu Yu apologetically, "Sensei Song, my apologies for dragging you into this. Actually, I really am grateful towards you and sincerely want to be your friend."

Chu Yu sighed lightly too, "And now?"

"To be honest, even now... I do not want to put Sensei Song in such a difficult position. After all, without your True Soul Pill, I would not be in the Divine Lord Realm."

Zhuo Fan sighed, "A talent like you should not have been dragged into this. This is why I say that people from the demonic cult really harm people deeply!"

Xu Xiaoxian looked on mockingly, "I’m guessing those are your men telling you that all traces have been wiped clean?"

As she spoke, she looked deeply at Chu Yu and smiled, "now, you can choose to stand in the same camp as him, after all, you don’t know my identity. Master Zhuo, how about it?"

Zhuo Fan’s eyebrows raised and smiled. "If Sensei Song didn’t know your identity, then he is innocent."

Xu Xiaoxian smiled brightly, "Of course he doesn’t know. How will I let my identity be known so easily? If he knew who I was, he would be running for his life!’

Zhuo Fan looked at Chu Yu.

Demonic Cult?

Xu Xiaoxian was from the demonic cults?

Chu Yu sighed internally. After spending so much time in the Mirror World, he had learnt quite abit about the demonic cults.

They trained in the demon techniques and were ruthless, cunning, and killed all in their way...

This was the Mirror World’s impression of the demonic cults.

However, in the Mirror World, there were also a few powerful demonic cults with ancient teachings and powerful backers.

Even though many were championing the annihilation of the demons, no one dared to antagonize these demonic cults.

So... which one of them was Xu Xiaoxian from?

Now that he thought about it, Even though Xu Xiaoxian is quite cunning and evil, she doesn’t seem like the typical demonic cult person.

On many levels, she could be quite cunning, but most of the time, she was loyal and righteous.

Of course, he may not be seeing the full picture.

Chu Yu thought about it, then said, "I had no idea she was from a demonic cult."

Zhuo Fan smiled, "That’s great, Sensei Song, please step aside and watch how your Brother Zhuo rids the world of a demon!’

Xu Xiaoxian’s smile was still bright, but a faint wave of sadness could be seen in the depths of her eyes.

Chu Yu frowned, "She even tried to harm me."

Zhuo Fan laughed, "That’s even better. A demonic girl from a demonic cult is cunning and vicious. Harming people is a routine for them. Rest assured, I’ll take revenge for you!"

Xu Xiaoxian was still smiling, albeit not as brightly as before.

"But..."

Chu Yu looked at Zhuo Fan, "I treat her as my friend!’

Zhuo Fan stiffened slightly.

Xu Xiaoxian stopped smiling and cocked her head to the side.

"Even though she is quite cunning and vicious, I have never seen her harm the innocent and the good hearted."

Chu Yu said seriously, "Furthermore, even though she has harmed me before, and set me up again this time, she has helped me before too. I am someone who repays my debts. As for her cunningness, I will repay it back to her too when the time comes."

Xu Xiaoxian looked at Chu Yu, dazed, "I am from a demonic cult."

"It’s okay, I’m brave." Chu Yu smiled.

"I am a demonic girl and I harm people all the time. Who is to say, one day, I might be your enemy, and we may have to fight to the death." Xu Xiaoxian whispered.

"I’ll be more careful next time. Anyways, who is to say that I won’t get back at you first. As for enemies... do you think I’ll care about one more?"

Chu Yu smiled extremely brightly.

Xu Xiaoxian understood this!

As a cultivator from the Village of Cultivation, it could be said that all the youthful talents of the Mirror World, as well as those who want to kill their way into the Solar System, were all his enemies.

As such, Xu Xiaoxian smiled and looked at Chu Yu, "Next time, I won’t harm you as badly…"

Chu Yu was speechless, "…"

Zhuo Fan also understood it now, Sensei Song was going to stand by this demonic girl.

How irrational!

He sighed again, "Sensei Song, you had a bright future ahead of you, why sentence yourself to death for a demonic girl?"

Chu Yu smiled faintly, "As a man, we do what is right."

Zhuo Fan shook his head, "You’re irrational!’

Xu Xiaoxian stood next to the stringless instrument and said flatly, "Do you think that we can’t do anything about you because you’re a Divine Lord in your territory, with countless offensive magical formations at your disposal?"

"Is there anything wrong with thinking this way?" At this point, Zhuo Fan did not see any point in hiding his intentions anymore.

He looked deeply at Xu Xiaoxian, "You’re still too young and unable to hold your temper. I have tried to auction this instrument off many times to attract you demonic cult people. But they have been smart enough not to take the bait. I didn’t expect that after so many years, one of you will come knocking on my door. Furthermore, you can play the instrument, you must be... haha, if I am correct, you must be one of the top demons? Not bad at all! After you die, I can extract the knowledge on how to control the instrument... and maybe uncover other secrets."

Chu Yu sighed lightly, What is true cult, and what is a demonic cult?

Zhuo Fan seemed to know the history behind this instrument and knew its name and even its explosive power.

He really wanted it!

　

All that crap about killing demons to uphold justice was just a cover for his selfish intentions.

Xu Xiaoxian looked at Zhuo Fan and laughed.

Her smile had traces of mocking.

"What are you laughing at?" Zhuo Fan looked icily at Xu Xiaoxian.

Even though he had not released his Divine Lord aura, cultivators at this level could easily release a strong suppressive aura.

This energy was not shapeless. If he so wanted, he could smash cultivators in the Supreme Realm to smithereens

Even if Xu Xiaoxian had magical equipment on her, he had every confidence that he could smash her before she could activate her magical equipment!

He had seen that lady unleash the terrifying power of the Heavenly Demon Instrument many years ago. Divine Lords could not withstand its power at all.

He did not know if it could kill Legendary Emperors, but killing a Divine Lord was definitely no issue.

But, would he give Xu Xiaoxian a chance to play it?

Definitely not!

As for Sensei Song... he was just a Supreme Realm cultivator, not a cause for concern at all.

Xu Xiaoxian said flatly, "Does it feel great to be in control of everything?"

"Of course!’ Zhuo Fan replied.

"Do you know why I let you breakthrough to the Divine Lord Realm?" Xu Xiaoxian looked at Zhuo Fan and smiled sinisterly.

Zhuo Fan’s eyebrows raised, "Do you want to tell me that the pill is poisoned? You look down on me too much. Little girl, to tell you the truth, even though I am not a pill refiner, I can tell if there is poison in this pill! I have a magical equipment specially for this!’

Limitless - Chapter 222: Stringless Instrument

The elder in charge glanced at Xu Xiaoxian. He could tell that this girl was extremely smart and would not be easy to deal with.

On the other hand, this Sensei Song was a highly specialized good samaritan.

If Xu Xiaoxian heard this, she would hit the roof.

She would definitely have something to say about that!

Chu Yu is a good samaritan? Don’t joke please. He’s also like me okay?

He just looks like a good samaritan!

　

"This art piece is worth two thousand best quality spiritual stones don’t you think?" This man looked at Xu Xiaoxian.

"Mm, even though it’s a little underwhelming, but it could do." Xu Xiaoxian’s lips twitched as she nodded.

The elder was calm and composed. He pointed to the blade, "This blade is the Flying Immortal, and it is the blade refined in the ancient times by the blade master Ou Zhizi from the Village of Cultivation!"

Chu Yu’s heart fluttered, Ou Zhizi? The blade master from the Spring and Autumn period?

He was a cultivator?

Confucius was a saint and a powerhouse in ancient days, and Yi was a powerful cultivator...

Now, Chu Yu found out that blade master Ou Zhizi was a cultivator who specialized in weapon refining.

It seems that the ancient times had many mysteries and secrets buried in the tides of time.

Furthermore, what did the elder mean by ancient times? Did he mean 2000 years ago?　

"This Flying Immortal is a True Lord weapon, but it... has killed Divine Lords before! And harmed Legendary Emperors!"

The elderly man exclaimed, "In ancient times, this blade was sent for an auction here, but I bought it at a price of 3000 best quality spiritual stones. I have kept it safely ever since, unwilling to even bring it out to display."

"Mm, good sword!" Xu Xiaoxian praised.

Chu Yu looked glanced at her quizzically. When she said good sword, she sounded like she was saying how low...

The elderly man continued, "If I really can enter the Divine Lord Realm, giving you this sword would be a small price to pay!"

Xu Xiaoxian nodded and grunted softly, showing her approval.

In the end, the elderly man pointed to the stringless instrument, "This stringless instrument... is a treasure."

"..." Chu Yu looked at the elderly man speechlessly.

Xu Xiaoxian’s face did not betray any emotion, her gaze deep.

"Sensei Song need not be puzzled, this stringless instrument had been valued by many masters before you. They all think that it is a piece of treasure, but after so many years, no one knows its history or how to use it."

The elderly man sighed softly, "After so many years, I have tried to auction it off, but for various reasons, it failed to sell."

"This is a genuine piece of treasure!"

Xu Xiaoxian said seriously, not at all hiding her emotions.

One could even see flashes of sadness deep in her eyes.

"Mm? This lady recognizes this stringless instrument?" The elderly man looked on curiously, shocked by Xu Xiaoxian’s outburst.

He did not think that Xu Xiaoxian was here for this instrument because in the past few years, this instrument had been at auctions many times.

Now that he saw that Xu Xiaoxian seemed to recognize this instrument, he was slightly taken aback and excited.

He said, slightly emotionally, "I didn’t spend much getting this from an auction back in the day. For a famous auction institution like ourselves, the profit we get from selling off an item is not the most important thing."

He looked at Xu Xiaoxian, "It tortures us greatly not to know the history behind the item."

"Mm, of course I recognize it."

Xu Xiaoxian was stern, then she smiled lightly, "If I told you that this item was a priceless treasure that could not be bought with countless best quality spiritual stones, will you still be willing to use it to swap for your Divine Lord breakthrough?"

The elderly in charge stiffened slightly, his eyes flashing with hesitation.

"I am a businessman, so I should be profit driven."

The old man laughed, "But, if I do not know where this item is from, then, even if it’s a god’s treasure, what use is it? It is worthless! A real treasure can only maximise its potential in the right hands. I just have one request."

Xu Xiaoxian nodded.

The elderly man continued, "If I breakthrough into the Divine Lord Realm after taking Sensei Song’s True Soul Pill, then, you can take this stringless instrument with you. But, can you tell me the story behind it?"

Xu Xiaoxian smiled, "Why not?"

A glimmer of respect flashed in the elderly man’s eyes. He said solemnly, "Rest assured lady, even if I know its history and realize that it is a priceless treasure, I can assure you as part of this entire auction institution that I will never go back on my word!"

He laughed, "In the auction business, sometimes our judgements are wrong. We may value something highly, but it is actually worth very little. If we try to reconcile money after the fact, who would want to do business with us?"

"Business and life follow the same principles, honesty is the most important."

"Even in an ability driven world, we cannot escape this fact."

After this, the elderly man sat in the room and activated a few magical formations. In a moment, this room became a boundless space.

He smiled, "Please do not worry, it is very safe here! Wait for me!’

Then, he took up a pill in front of Chu Yu and Xu Xiaoxian. He hesitated for a moment, then shut his eyes and swallowed it.

Chu Yu was speechless but Xu Xiaoxian used the Voice Transmission Technique to talk to him, "Look at the apprehension your pill induces? However, this will become your trademark very soon. If you want to harm others, you just have to refine a normal looking pill."

"..." Chu Yu’s mouth twitched, Demonic girls are demonic girls, they always say things like that.

He really wanted to ask Xu Xiaoxian, Aren’t you afraid that this man would go back on his word and silence us?

Chu Yu did not ask because he knew that Xu Xiaoxian was way more suspicious and careful than him. The fact that she dared to do this meant that she had absolute confidence.

At this point, Xu Xiaoxian’s gaze was fixated on the stringless instrument, her eyes filling up with grief and sadness.

Chu Yu stiffened slightly. He wanted to ask her, but didn’t.

At this point, the elderly man in charge’s body exploded with an unimaginably magnificent wave of aura.

This aura morphed into a dragon and rushed towards the sky.

It reached the highest point and was blocked by the magical formation. It actually let out a high pitched and clear growl!

Then, various extraordinary scenes unfolded in the sky above them.

There were Lu Lins on the clouds, phoenixes dancing, hawks spreading their wings and dragons filled the sky above them!

In this room, the magnificent aura became stronger and stronger.

This room was like a pocket dimension.

The power in this auction house let Chu Yu realize that the 5000 best quality spiritual stones price tag placed on the True Soul Pill... was not ridiculously high.

After a few hours, this man’s eyes opened.

A divine glow flashed past his eyes, almost as if an entire universe was contained in them!

Then, he suppressed all of the aura.

He stood up and walked to Chu Yu, bowing deeply, "Sensei Song is indeed capable, thank you, thank you!’

Chu Yu smiled, "Congratulations on entering the Divine Lord Realm!"

The elderly man was ecstatic and he smiled at Xu Xiaoxian, "Lady, you can take that instrument!’

Then, he looked at Chu Yu, "This sword and this painting... Sensei Song, please have them, you have my thanks!"

"That’s not..." Chu Yu hurriedly rejected him and smiled bitterly, "Senior, your payment... is already enough!"

The elderly man said, "Before I entered the Divine Lord Realm, I thought so too. However, when I finally entered this realm, I found that my understanding of the world has changed drastically. As such, thank you, I would like to make friends with you. I am Zhuo Fan. If Sensei Song is willing, just call me brother Zhuo! From this day on, your problems are my problems!’ noveltranslationweb.blogspot.com

Zhuo Fan was also a cultivator at the pinnacle of the True Lord Realm for many years. If he had the ability to breakthrough, he would have done so many years ago, why wait till today?

As the auction master of the Sky Auction Institution, how could he not have come in contact with superior pills and magical equipment?

He had tried True Soul Pills before!

But they all failed!

As such, to him, Chu Yu had done him a great favor that could not be repaid by mere money pr treasure.

Furthermore, Chu Yu really wanted the painting and the sword.

The Flying Immortal was refined in his own hometown, and he felt a connection with it.

Chu Yu nodded, "Since Brother Zhuo has said so, I will listen to you! If Brother Zhuo faces any problems in the future, I will also do my best to help."

Xu Xiaoxian’s mouthy twitched, How thick skinned!

However, she had fulfilled one of her biggest wishes by getting this stringless instruments.1

As such, even though Chu Yu had two treasures, she was not jealous.

Xu Xiaoxian walked up and stroked this stringless instrument.

Hum!

A melody played!

Divine Lord Zuo Fan was stunned. He looked at Xu Xiaoxian in disbelief.

"Not only do you recognize this instrument, you know how to control it! I am sure you have some history with this instrument!" He exclaimed.

This stringless instrument was ancient. It was black in color, and looked like it was made from solid wood.

It looked like an unfinished piece, with many corners still unpolished.

However, it was a stringless instrument, and no one found its unpolished exterior weird.

But Xu Xiaoxian could play it!

This meant that this instrument was not just purely symbolic!

Xu Xiaoxian’s hands flew across the instrument and a beautiful melody rung out. Then, she smiled, tears welling up in her eyes.

She whispered, "This instrument was my... parents’ token of love."

Chu Yu and Zhuo Fan stiffened. Chu Yu was especially shocked, when he had mentioned her parents before, she had gotten angry and said she did not have parents.

Xu Xiaoxian took a deep breath and smiled, "My parents have been missing for years. This instrument is not stringless, but it can only be played by people from my family. I could not find my parents, but I managed to find news on the instrument."

Then, she looked at Zhuo Fan, "I hope that senior doesn’t think that I’m cooking up a story to get my hands on this instrument?"

Zhuo Fan smiled warmly and sighed softly.

"How can I not see that these are your true emotions? Your parents may just be gone temporarily. Thousands of years are mere moments in the cultivation world, they may return at any time. I never expected that this instrument had such a history. Then, what special abilities does it have?"

Xu Xiaoxian’s finger stroked the instrument and smiled faintly. The smile looked strangely sinister, "Of course it has special abilities, it... can kill a Divine Lord!’

Limitless - Chapter 221: Astronomical Price

Xu Xiaoxian’s prank succeeded and she sat there, maintaining her smile, almost as if nothing had happened.

This old man was slightly frazzled. First, he looked at the smiling Xu Xiaoxian, then at the calm Chu Yu.

He couldn’t understand what was going on.

Are these two scammers?

No way!

This auction house was one of the most powerful in the Mirror World, their influence extending to most cities. Futhermore, which scammer would scam this way?

Who would take two incredibly ugly pills... ahem, were they even pills? Who knew what these things were?

This old man was someone who had was quite experience. After coughing a few times, he coughed apologetically, "This... pill that Sensei Song refined has quite a character, mm, very artistic!"

Even a knowledgeable man would find it difficult to find words appropriate to describe such an ugly pill.

This elder’s description was extremely great.

"In charge, do you know about pills?" Chu Yu asked calmly.

"Mm, slightly." The elderly man nodded and set aside the notion that these two were scammers.

There were too many weird occurrences in this world. Just because he didn’t know about something doesn’t mean that it didn’t exist.

With this mindset, the elderly man calmed down.

Slightly was quite the understatement.

How could he be the in charge of an auction center in the Sky Dazed City without being capable?

He was quite the expert in pill and equipment refining, techniques and books, antiques and scriptures, amongst other things!

Else, he would not be able to sieve out the bad products. It was okay to make a couple of mistakes, after all, no one is perfect.

But if he made too many mistakes, not only would he be embarrassed, people will also begin to doubt the auction institution.

As the elderly man spoke, he picked up one pill and began to analyze it.

There was no medicinal aroma, could it be that all the medicinal properties had been sealed within?

The pill was covered in pill engravings, and each stroke had a faint strand of Dao!

This was no simple!

However, this pill’s shape was really too ugly.

Everyone was used to seeing round, shiny pills with strong medicinal aromas.

Now that he was faced with such a different product, he found it difficult to accept.

But at this point, he already had a preliminary valuation on this pill, however, he did not dare to surmise exactly how powerful the pills were.

It was clear that this pill was refined by a powerful and capable pill refiner. It was quite impressive that the medicinal properties were all sealed within the pills!

However, even for someone as learned as him, he did not dare to judge the pill in other aspects.

　　

He was not a pill refiner, and he could not willfully value an item like this with his current status.

As such, he was still unsure if such an ugly pill was really the True Soul Pill responsible for the creation of two Divine Lords.

"How about this, In charge, how much do you think a True Soul Pill which could let a True Lord enter the Divine Lord Realm is worth?" Xu Xiaoxian spoke.

This old man frowned and contemplated, "I think, at least 500?"

Chu Yu stiffened, 500 what? Best quality spiritual stones? Is this thing that valuable?

Xu Xiaoxian laughed faintly, "500? Are you joking?"

The In charge’s face reddened, "Then, how much do you think it’s worth?"

Xu Xiaoxian said flatly, "About 10 times more."

Chu Yu nearly fainted, She must be crazy, ten times... isn’t that 5000 best quality spiritual stones?

When he sold these pills to Mu Yuexiu back in the Purple Cloud School, the 300,000 top quality spiritual stones he accepted as payment had already awed him.

This is because the medicine required for the refinement of such a pill, by the highest estimates, only cost a maximum of 50,000 top quality spiritual stones.

Why is this pill so valuable in the eyes of these two?

The 500 best quality spiritual stones offer by the In Charge was already an astronomical price to Chu Yu.

It was not for three, but for one!

Mu Yuexiu had only valued it at 100,000 top quality spiritual stones.

The In Charge’s offer was equivalent to 500,000 top quality spiritual stones!

Xu Xiaoxian was asking for 5 million top quality spiritual stones!

This was a full 50 times higher than Mu Yuexiu’s valuation!

What made Chu Yu speechless was that after the In Charge heard Xu Xiaoxian’s price, he heaved a sigh of relief?

Sigh of relief?

Shouldn’t he find this price astronomical?

Shouldn’t he accuse Xu Xiaoxian of being too greedy?

Why did he sigh in relief?

Is he crazy?

"Are you dumb? Idiot!"

Xu Xiaoxian scolded Chu Yu using the Voice Transmission Technique, "How can you use the Song Country market price in the Sky Dazed City? You’ve live on Earth for so long, don’t you know this logic? A truffle can be sold for 50 dollars in the villages, but in the city, it sells for a few hundred dollars! In the poshest restaurants, they can go for thousands!"

Chu Yu was completely stunned.

But even then, isn’t it a little too much?

The In Charge nodded, "If this pill is really as great as it is touted to be, 5000 best quality spiritual stones is not an exaggeration."

Xu Xiaoxian forgot about her previous unhappiness with Chu Yu as she looked at the In Charge seriously, "Not only is it not an exaggeration, it is an extremely reasonable price!"

She then privately used the Voice Transmission Technique, "If this works out, give me half of what you get!"

"..." Chu Yu was speechless.

The In Charge nodded, "Then... what is your suggestion?"

"Simple, aren’t you a pinnacle True Lord cultivator? Take one, if it works, then give us 5000 best quality spiritual stones and we auction the rest off. If it doesn’t work, we will leave immediately."

Xu Xiaoxian smiled, "How about it?"

Chu Yu stiffened slightly and glanced at Xu Xiaoxian, she could tell this In Charge’s cultivation realm?

The elderly man was taken aback. He had magical equipment to suppress his aura. People who could determine his cultivation level were either much more powerful than him, or had extraordinary treasures on them.

This girl was clearly not particularly powerful. Even though she was quite talented, she was still only a Supreme Realm cultivator.

Clearly, she had extraordinary treasures on her!

"5000 best quality spiritual stones is not a high price to pay for a chance at the Divine Lord Realm, but... I do not have so much on me." The elder laughed bitterly, "After all, it is not a small sum."

"You can pay us in items too. With your standing, how can you not have a few treasures on hand?" Xu Xiaoxian smiled at the In Charge. Even though this was not her actual appearance, she was still rather adorable.

Chu Yu suddenly felt that this demonic girl’s plan was being revealed at last!

She may have already expected this result when she took out the pills!

No, in fact, ever since she dragged him out... she already thought of this end game!

Even though it seemed like a wild guess, Chu Yu felt that way.

The elderly man hesitated, "Treasures? Treasures that are worth such an astronomical price? Let me think."

Xu Xiaoxian prompted, "For example, you can take out some of the things you can’t grasp as well. I may want some of them and value them highly. Furthermore, if this pill doesn’t work, you don’t have to pay a single cent. If it works, you’ll be a Divine Lord and everything... will be different from here on out."

How tempting!

Chu Yu thought to himself.

The elderly In Charge was clearly moved. He stood up, "Please wait a moment, I will be back shortly."

Then, he turned and left.

Chu Yu used the Voice Transmission Technique, "Have you already eyed something this man has?"

Xu Xiaoxian looked at Chu Yu innocently, "Why would you think that of me? Oh god... Chu Yu, do you really think I am someone like that? I helped you buy that slave just now, and now I helped you raise the price of your pill to such astronomical prices. I did this all because you’re my friend and I want to help you. It’s hurtful that you’ll think this way."

"Girl, your acting skills are really overboard this time."

Chu Yu looked at her expressionlessly, "Since you’ve helped me, it is only reasonable that I compensate you fairly, but I don’t like being used by others."

"Humph, you think too much! Nothing like that is going on, I’m really doing this to help you." Xu Xiaoxian insisted.

Soon after, this elder returned.

He took out a storage bag said, "There are 3000 best quality spiritual stones in here. This is my entire fortune."

Chu Yu could not help but be in awe. How much did they manage to raid from the Sun Clan back then?

This elderly man, an In Charge of an auction, could amass a fortune of 3000 best quality spiritual stones.

This disparity in wealth was too great!

This was just like a farmer having a million dollars in assets. Everyone thought that this man was rich, and he himself thought that he was wealthy. All of a sudden, one day, a CEO comes along who earns a million dollars a day.

There was simply no comparison.

Xu Xiaoxian did not care much about these spiritual stones. Her focus had never been on the stones.

At this point, the elderly man retrieved a few more items.

A painting, a sword, and a stringless instrument.

"This painting has quite a history. Even though it is a True Lord Realm treasure, when used properly, it is no worse than a Divine Lord magical equipment."

The elderly man in charge introduced this ancient painting.

Chu Yu used his vertical eye to observe the painting and was awed by what he saw.

A huge wave of energy greeted him. It was almost as if it was not a painting, but a vast world in front of him.

At the same time, there was a terrifying attractive force, almost as if he was going to be absorbed into the painting!

He quickly shut his vertical eye.

The elder quickly said, "You cannot use your mental sense to get a feeling of this painting, else you will easily be absorbed and sealed."

Then, he pointed to some black dots in the painting. The largest was just the size of a sesame seed and the smallest was like a speck of dust.

"These were all lifeforms that had been sealed, the strongest... is a True Lord life form!" He pointed at the sesame sized dot and said.

"So powerful?" Chu Yu gasped.

It could seal a True Lord!

No wonder it is comparable to a Divine Lord magical equipment.

Limitless - Chapter 220: So you are Sensei Song

Xu Xiaoxian was extremely sensitive as she scanned Chu Yu before using the Voice Transmission Technique, "Why? You feel like buying a slave to play with?"

Then, she glanced at Chu Yu cheekily.

What do you mean ‘play with’?

Chu Yu glared at her, "Do you know how to speak? Anyways... lend me 10,000 top quality spiritual stones!"

Xu Xiaoxian glared at Chu Yu, "You chide me, then want to borrow money from me? No way!"

At this point, someone stepped out and asked, "10,000 top quality spiritual stones is too expensive, and I can buy many powerful magical equipment with it, can you go lower?"

Chu Yu realized that the man in the cage’s steely expression twitched slightly when he heard the commotion

No one would be happy about being treated as a commodity.

The salesman smiled, "My good sir, you must be joking. He is a human warrior of the Polar Blue Wolves bloodline. With the token in hand, his loyalty will be assured. Not only can he kill for you, he can die for you too. Is your life worth that little?"

That man’s mouth twitched and shook his head, "You’re not wrong, but it is too expensive, if it’s a little cheaper..."

At this point, Chu Yu said immediately, "I want this man!"

The male in the cage finally opened his eyes to look at Chu Yu. Then, he shut them immediately.

You may look like you’re disinterested in everything, but I doubt you are.

Chu Yu thought to himself.

The man who complained about the price looked at Chu Yu unhappily.

He only wanted to bargain, but he had also set his eyes on this man.

The salesman was right. A Supreme Realm human battle cultivator from the Polar Blue Wolves bloodline would be much stronger than cultivators of similar level.

At the most critical moments, he could die for you.

.

There may be many cultivators in the Mirror World, but not everyone had the ability to reach that level.

A Supreme Realm bodyguard was sufficient for many people.

Chu Yu ignored him, in a sale, the highest bidder would win.

At this point, the salesman smiled at Chu Yu and said flatteringly, "This man’s foresight is good. Let me tell you, I assure you that this is a great deal for you."

Chu Yu nodded faintly, then retrieved over 3000 top quality spiritual stones and threw them to the salesman, "This is a deposit, I will come and get him tomorrow. Remember, do not torture him during this time!"

Seeing Chu Yu’s stature and demeanor, this man smiled, "Rest assured master, since he is yours, we will treat him well and not torture him."

Chu Yu nodded, then walked towards the auction stage.

Xu Xiaoxian stiffened slightly, she did not really care about 8000 top quality spiritual stones.

If Chu Yu treated her slightly nicer, she would have given them to Chu Yu.

　

She did not expect that this man would be so stubborn and walk away without bothering with her.

This angered Xu Xiaoxian and she rolled her eyes, How good are you? You want to be stubborn huh? I want you to owe me a favor!

At that moment, she threw out a storage bag without looking at how many spiritual stones there were, "Here’s the money, give me the person!"

Chu Yu stood rooted in his spot as he frowned and turned back to look at Xu Xiaoxian.

"I have money, I want you to owe me!"

Xu Xiaoxian looked extremely contented with herself.

The salesman glanced at Chu Yu. Realizing he did not have much of a reaction, he looked at Xu Xiaoxian and began to understand what was going on.

This was just a little bickering!

Anyways, as long as he had the money, why would he care who it was from?

He immediately took the bag and eyed it. He fiddled with it then smiled, "Sure, I’ll release him right away!"

This man was extremely efficient as he put the token in Chu Yu’s hands and used the Voice Transmission Technique to teach Chu Yu how to use it.

Then, he ordered for the cage to be opened and the man to be released.

This hulking man stood there like a metal statue.

His aura was one of iciness and murder.

Many of the spectators retreated a few steps and looked at this man in terror.

As a Supreme Realm cultivator, he had the ability to kill easily. If he went berserk, he could easily kill an entire city.

Chu Yu glanced at the strong man, "Are your injuries serious?"

This man looked at Chu Yu and shook his head.

"Then, let’s go."

This man followed without resisting.

Xu Xiaoxian was fuming as she raged at Chu Yu, "Do you have a conscience?"

"Thank you." Chu Yu turned back to look at her, thanking her sincerely.

"You..." Xu Xiaoxian rolled her eyes, then smiled, "You’re welcome."

Chu Yu was slightly stunned, Am I treating her a little too well?

Actually, other than the time that she set him up at Jingpo lake, this lady has not actively tried to harm him?

In their last partnership, they were just making use of each other.

However, she was definitely a devil girl, and it was wise to maintain some distance.

Chu Yu looked at Xu Xiaoxian, "I will return it to you soon."

"It’s just a little money, don’t worry about it." Xu Xiaoxian smiled, "I’m not in need of it now."

Chu Yu brought the man along as he walked towards the auction area.

Xu Xiaoxian followed closely, almost as if nothing happened.

When he arrived at the auction area, Chu Yu immediately told the person there that he was here to auction True Soul Pills.

That man was completely stunned as he went to find the person in charge.

The person in charge was an old man in his 50s. He was relatively capable with shining eyes that could read a person with ease.

This old man invited Chu Yu and Xu Xiaoxian inside, then looked at the strong man behind Chu Yu radiating with a murderous aura.

Chu Yu told the man, "Just stand guard out here."

This man nodded silently.

When they entered the room, this old man called for tea, then looked at Chu Yu, "You would like to auction True Soul Pills?"

"Exactly." Chu Yu nodded.

"True Soul Pills... are considered extremely superior pills. Even though the ingredients are not difficult to find, it is extremely difficult to refine a truly superior quality True Soul Pill. Even pill refining gurus are unable to guarantee that every batch is good. As such, a genuine True Soul Pill can be auctioned."

Chu Yu looked at the old man, "Two of my True Soul Pills have already made two Divine Lords."

"Hm?" The old man was stunned and looked at Chu Yu, "You are?"

Xu Xiaoxian said flatly, "He is the sensei from the Purple Cloud School Pill Refining Section who has been making waves in the recent interschool championships."

"Ah!" This old man was shocked, then he stood up eagerly and bowed to Chu Yu.

"So you’re Sensei Song, my apologies, my apologies!"

As a citizen of the Sky Dazed City and the person in charge of the auction, how could he not follow the interschool championships?

　　

Furthermore, the black horse, the Purple Cloud School, was extremely popular now!

Almost the entire Mirror World was abuzz with information about them.

The Mirror World was extremely huge and many cultivators could not even cover 0.1% of it in their lifetime.

However, the internet was beyond distance. By using the various networks around the Mirror World, people could log onto social media and see what was going on throughout the entire Mirror World. noveltranslationweb.blogspot.com

This wasn’t just keeping pace with the times. Over 60 million years ago, when these societies were in their individual universes, such technology was already prevalent.

.

This person in charge of the auctions had also specially gathered information with regard to the Purple Cloud and had quite an understanding of Sensei Song Hong.

He had heard that this man’s True Soul Pills were responsible for the creation of two Divine Lords.

This was the work of the internet.

Else, it would not be so easy to hear of the news from a small country and an unranked school.

Back then, he was extremely shocked because he had never seen a True Soul Pill in his life.

Even though the True Soul Pill was one of the crucial pills for breakthrough into the Divine Lord Realm, it’s success rate... was not that high.

It could even be described as... extremely low!

As such, two True Soul Pills creating two Divine Lord powerful cultivators?

It this for real?

Initially, he did not really believe this, but after gaining additional intel, he finally believed that there were pill refiners in this world capable of refining pills that surpassed the understanding of people.

Now that he saw this man in the flash, the attitude of the person in charge changed immediately.

Before, this was just a business dealing, but now... he wanted to make friends with this man.

After the elderly man took his seat, he looked at Chu Yu seriously, "Since it is Sensei Song, I think there’s nothing more to discuss. Your reputation precedes you and I am sure many people want to get their hands on the pills you refine."

Chu Yu smiled, "You flatter me."

One day, if I meet with these Divine Lords on the battlefield and they don’t want to retreat, I wonder what kind of scene my plan would cause?

This technique he used was like a backdoor that a powerful programmer left for himself.

This backdoor was known only to him and no one could find out what it was.

If he wanted to use this backdoor to do something, no one could stop him.

Unless he met someone even more powerful!

In this world, there were few who could resolve a backdoor left by a medicinal saint.

Ordinarily, even if the other party was a medicinal saint, it would be virtually impossible to resolve it!

Xu Xiaoxian said, "In charge, do you not plan on seeing the pills Sensei Song refined?"

The person in charge had thought that Xu Xiaoxian was Sensei Song’s girlfriend. Upon hearing this, he smiled, "What is there to worry about the pills Sensei Song refine?"

"No, I think that you should take a look at it to prepare yourself. This way, when you are seilling it, you have something to say." Xu Xiaoxian smiled.

Then, she poured a cup of tea for this man, "Please, drink."

"Oh, ok ok." This elderly man was slightly lost as he raised his glass to Chu Yu.

Chu Yu smiled, then retrieved his jade bottle and poured out two True Soul Pills in front of this man.

"Ahem..." Upon seeing the pills, the elderly man nearly choked on his tea.

Limitless - Chapter 219: Nascent Soul with an Attribute

Chu Yu glanced at her, "Is it that magical? In fact, they had already accumulated enough over the years and were on the verge of breaking through."

Xu Xiaoxian smiled, "The way you speak betrays your identity. Normal people do not understand what it means to have one foot in. However, what you say is true, they already had one foot in the Divine Lord Realm. However, even in soccer, the final part is the hardest, and the most attractive. That’s why strikers get the most attention."

"You watch soccer?" Chu Yu was stunned.

How long has this devilish girl spent on Earth? She seems to know a lot about Earth!

Chu Yu grew up amongst the commoners and also enjoyed these sports. But her didn’t expect that a classic cultivator like Xu Xiaoxian would also be interested in these sports too.

"My habit is to gain sufficient understanding about the society I am in." Xu Xiaoxian looked at Chu Yu, "That way, no matter what I want to do, I will know where and how to start."

As she spoke, she became more and more contented with herself, "Of course, I am smart enough to learn something the moment I come into contact with it!"

"How coincidental, me too." Chu Yu replied expressionlessly.

"Aiyo..." Xu Xiaoxian rolled her eyes, then chirped, "How I revere you!"

"..." Chu Yu was speechless.

This girl could go on for days.

The two of them walked the prosperous streets of the Sky Dazed City. They could feel the amalgamation of cultures here.

All races set up shops here.

In the various schools in the Mirror World, there were species other than humans.

However, more than half of them were mostly human. Even though their bodies flowed with the blood of other species, most of them were largely human.

If they did not reveal their identities, ordinary people would find it difficult to find out their true bloodline.

There were also some superior demon life forms who were able to take the form of humans because their bloodlines were powerful enough.

The schools in the Mirror World were more open and did not discriminate against the non-humans as much.

Similarly, if these lifeforms did not say anything, people without the ability to see past deceit like Chu Yu would find it difficult to find out the true identities of these people.

However, it was a different story in the Sky Dazed City.

There were people who were humans from waist up, but tiger from waist down. There were people with the head of a wolf and the body of a human. There were also people who roamed the streets in beast form.

The people did not seem disturbed by their presence. Clearly, it was a common sight.

"Let me tell you, these non human lifeforms find it much more difficult to cultivate than humans. As such, their thirst for pills far exceed those of humans." Xu Xiaoxian used the Voice Transmission Technique as they walked the streets, "Furthermore, they are rich!"

"You’re trying to tell me to sell my True Soul Pills to non humans?" Chu Yu asked.

"You sell them to the highest bidder!" Xu Xiaoxian glanced at Chu Yu out of the corner of her eye, "Are you stupid?"

Okay, there she goes again.

The roads were filled with shops, selling everything imaginable.

"Come and take a look, this is a Supreme Realm magical equipment passed down for generations. It can attack and defend and even release a demonic sound which will mess with your opponent’s concentration! 300 top quality spiritual stones, it’ll be sold for 300 top quality spiritual stones!" One deer faced youth waved a purple flute as he bellowed.

He had a stall with another seven to eight similar flutes, together with some other random items.

Chu Yu did not even need to use his vertical eye to see that the flutes were not Supreme Realm magical equipment. At most, they were King’s Realm magical equipment.

"10,000 year old medicine which has formed spirits! It can revive people!" An aged man was trying to promote the medicine at his stall.

Chu Yu was speechless, none of those medicine were more than a thousand years old.

To a pill refiner, recognizing the quality of medicine was basic.

This place was too prosperous, and anything and everything was sold here.

There were stalls selling beasts and even slaves!

Chu Yu used the Voice Transmission Technique to ask Xu Xiaoxian, "Where are these slaves from?"

Xu Xiaoxian glanced at Chu Yu, "This is the Mirror World, do you think it’s like Earth? There are many sources for slaves, but most of them come from fallen countries. The Mirror World is full of small countries like the Song Country. Wars are extremely common and the defeated soldiers and leaders... are either dead, in hiding, or sold as slaves."

How cruel!

Chu Yu thought to himself.

At this point, his gaze fell on a huge cage.

Inside the cage was a man held by countless metal chains reinforced with magical formations.

He was treated extremely cruelly, the metal chain piercing his bones and limbs.

The man was rather hulking, at least two meters in height and well built. The muscles in his body were like metal and he was topless, wearing only a tattered pair of shorts.

He sat on his feet in the cage, eyes shut, silent.

Everyone who walked past looked inside curiously.

As long as someone looked in, the person outside the cage would begin promoting.

"Don’t miss out on this! This man is a Supreme Realm power! He is extremely powerful. I will not say which country he is from, but his bloodline is that of the Polar Blue Wolves!"

Those who understood gasped when they heard this.

The Polar Blue Wolves of the Mirror World were a powerful species of beast living in extremely cold conditions.

It was said that these lifeforms were in the Xiantian Realm at birth!

Furthermore, they were born with some sacred arts. Furthermore, the sacred arts they were born with were extremely diverse.

Some of them were ordinary, but others... were incredibly strong!

The Polar Blue Wolves had ever produced demon saints and this was the reason why their species had quite the reputation in the Mirror World.

This strong man had the blood of the Polar Blue Wolves, which meant that he could have some congenital sacred arts.

Someone asked, "This is such a terrifying man, and I am not as powerful as him, what if he is disobedient?"

"Ha, this is a good question!" The watcher smiled, "If I can’t even guarantee the safety of the buyer, how will I dare to do business?"

As he spoke, he retrieved a palm sized black token. The token had intricate engravings - magical formations.

"Can everyone see this token? This token stores a shred of the slave’s soul on each surface. We will also teach you how to control this token and internalize it. Then, with just a thought, they will be begging for death!"

Then, he smiled contentedly, "I will demonstrate it to you now!"

Then, he gently stroked the black token.

The hulking man in the cage stiffened in an instant, then began to tremble uncontrollably.

Shortly after, a trickle of blood flowed out of the corner of his mouth.

From start to finish, this man did not open his eyes or make a sound.

"Did everyone see that? He is trying to suppress the pain! Haha, after all, he is of the Polar Blue Wolves bloodlines, and they value their dignity over everything else. But in fact, my gentle stroking had already caused him incredible pain. If you refine this token further, just a single thought will have him begging for death!"

The watcher’s expression was passionate, almost as if he was promoting his merchandise with all his might.

But Chu Yu felt only iciness in his heart.

Xu Xiaoxian looked extremely excited, smiling as she watched the scenes unfold.

"How much!" Someone was moved. One would be much safer with such a powerful slave following one around as a bodyguard.

"Not expensive, not expensive, just 10,000 top quality spiritual stones!" The promoter smiled.

Hiss!

Everyone watching gasped.

10,000 top quality spiritual stones... not expensive?

Then what is expensive?

.

In this world, everything had a value, including humans.

Under ordinary circumstances, a Supreme Realm cultivator would not be worth so little.

But he was just a Supreme Realm slave.

Whether the price was acceptable was up to the individual to decide.

At the end of the day, few people here could afford it.

Even if they could afford it, they had to seriously consider if it was worth it buying a slave.

For someone who could pay that kind of price for this man, they would not be short on Supreme Realm bodyguards.

At this point, Chu Yu opened his vertical eye and glanced at this hulking man.

　

He was already in the Supreme Realm, and he would not be spotted when using the vertical eye to observe people of the same cultivation level.

Chu Yu realized that this man’s Dantian was surrounded by a pale blue light. Upon closer inspection, that blue light was emitted by the Nascent Soul.

This is his Nascent Soul?

This was the first time Chu Yu saw a Nascent Soul of this color, and his curiosity was piqued.

Through using his divine senses, he could confirm that this was an icy attribute Nascent Soul.

Chu Yu was slightly taken aback.

Under normal circumstances, a golden pill would be formed when one entered the King’s Realm. Almost all the golden pills were without attributes, they were just the energy source of cultivators.

However, this Polar Blue Wolves bloodline man’s Nascent Soul clearly had an icy attribute.

This was rare!

Even Chu Yu’s golden pill and Nascent Soul were without special attributes

The only reason why he was different was because his golden pill and Nascent Soul were surrounded by the purple gas emitted by his vertical eye.

Upon closer inspection, Chu Yu realized that this man’s Nascent Soul was being suppressed. On the surface of that pale blue glow, there was a restriction.

.

This restriction was rather interesting. It was like a small scale magical formation which linked to the man’s heart meridian.

Once this restriction was activated, the man would die instantly!

Is this how these people treated slaves?

How vicious!

However, history is written by the victors, and no one could say anything about this.

Chu Yu had used his vertical eye to observe many cultivators, but this was the first time he saw a Nascent Soul with attributes.

As such, his interest in this man was piqued.
