Chapter 59 - Asking for It

Chapter 59 - Asking for It

The whole auction hall heated up as soon as the Realm Breaking Pill appeared, reaching a climax.

The Qi Grandmasters present released their powerful auras without showing any restraint.

Various formidable energies intertwined in the auction hall, creating a tumultuous scene.

“So the last item is a Realm Breaking Pill. It’s no surprise so many Qi Grandmasters are participating in this auction. Tsk tsk...” Chen Fan sighed.

The Qi Grandmasters present were likely to compete for it fiercely. After all, it was their chance to advance to the Yuanfu realm.

However, in Chen Fan’s opinion, the Qi Grandmasters in the lobby wouldn’t ultimately get the pill.

To reach the level of a Qi Grandmaster, they must have encountered significant opportunities, but they lacked financial support. They were rogue cultivators with shallow pockets.

When it came to cultivation, four major factors needed attention: technique, companion, wealth, and land.

Technique referred to the cultivation method.

Companion referred to a fellow cultivator or Dao companion.

Wealth referred to economic conditions and financial resources.

Land referred to the cultivation environment, such as grotto heavens and blessed lands.

The true contenders for the Realm Breaking Pill were most likely the individuals in the private rooms on the second floor.

They all hailed from large clans or powers, with strong backing and deep pockets, allowing them to bid any price they desired.

Although Chen Fan had five thousand primeval stones on him, after spending nearly two thousand of them, he wasn’t qualified to partake in this fight for the Realm Breaking Pill.

If he had enough money, he, too, would have fought for it.

After all, he also hailed from a martial clan.

However, his clan was only a martial clan from a grade-two city and couldn't be compared to prominent clans like the Lin Clan or the Sun Clan, which had Yuanfu realm powerhouses guarding them. [1]

His father, a Qi Grandmaster, had been stuck in this cultivation realm for over a decade.

If he could obtain this Realm Breaking Pill, his father could advance to the Yuanfu realm, elevating the clan’s strength to another level.

Chen Fan and Qin Yao sat in their seats, listening to the escalating bids from the crowd.

The atmosphere was much fiercer compared to when he and Lin Ba fought for the Fire Spirit Chalcedony.

The Realm Breaking Pill’s price soon skyrocketed to a staggering three thousand primeval stones, leaving Chen Fan shocked.

However, this price didn’t scare off those Qi Grandmasters at all. The roots of this story extend from novell bìn origin.

Chen Fan directly offered the Fire Spirit Chalcedony to Qin Yao.

“Chen Fan, th-thank you,” Qin Yao said softly, holding the Fire Spirit Chalcedony.

Chen Fan smiled and said, “You don’t have to be polite with me, Senior Sister. I’m willing to do anything for you. After all, it is my duty. Alright, let’s head back to the sect, Senior Sister.”

......

When they left the World’s End Pavilion, Chen Fan noticed people following them from behind. A cold, killing intent flashed in his eyes.

“Be careful, Senior Sister. Someone has their eyes on us,” Chen Fan said.

Qin Yao nodded, her senses sharp enough to detect the abnormality. She asked, "I wonder who they are?"

“That goes without saying. It must be Lin Ba’s group.”

Chen Fan continued, “But I think they’re just looking to die, to dare have designs on us. Let’s quickly leave the city and lure them out.”

Killing intent rose in Chen Fan’s heart.

The two moved swiftly, quickly leaving the city and heading toward the Spring Autumn Sect.

Rumble!

However, the feeling that they were being pursued became increasingly apparent after they exited the city.

Lin Ba's group was no longer concealing themselves. They came out into the open, riding tall horses and relentlessly giving chase.

Chen Fan and Qin Yao reached a secluded clearing and stood their ground, their gazes fixed on the approaching figures led by Lin Ba.

“Oh? This kid knows he can't escape and has decided to give up? Very well. I’ll give you a choice. Kneel and offer up the Fire Spirit Chalcedony, along with your other treasures and primeval stones. Then, cripple your own cultivation. I can spare your dog life that way. Otherwise, it’s death for you!”

Lin Ba was on a Golden Horned Horse, looking down coolly at Chen Fan with an air of superiority.

Lin Ba's gaze shifted to Qin Yao, and his eyes immediately lit up. "Hmm? She's your woman? Excellent. She's quite beautiful. I've taken a liking to her. Offer her to me, and you might still have a chance to survive. Otherwise, no one in this world can save you!"

“Young Master Lin, am I not enough for you?”

The woman, riding the Golden Horned Horse with Lin Ba, interjected with a soft and weak voice, her posture exuding charm that could awaken the most primal desires in a man's heart.

“Haha, you little vixen. Of course, it’s not enough. Not unless you and this long-legged beauty serve me at the same time under my crotch, moaning in joy.”

Lin Ba rubbed the woman’s chest roughly, laughing out loud.

“You’re so mean," the woman playfully whined.

"You little brat, why are you just standing there like a statue? Hurry up and hand over your woman, treasures, and primeval stones to Young Master Lin. Do you want to die?" the leader of Lin Ba's followers shouted angrily, frustrated by Chen Fan's lack of response.

A surge of killing intent emanated from Chen Fan's eyes as he coldly retorted, "You're begging for death!"
