King Time

The terrible pressure

''Our next item is a rare rank 2 medicinal herb, 'water element grass'.''

As soon as Lan Jinjing finished speaking, Shun Long's eyes shone brightly as his attention was all focused on the hall's main stage where the 2 disciples were carrying bottles with blue-colored grass inside.

''The minimum bid for this water element grass was 500 sect points and each raise had to be at least 50 sect points''

''600''

''700''

''1000'' Shun Long's heavy voice rang out from inside the private room.

''1100'' Strangely the voice of a young man sounded from the outside chair as he competed with Shun Long for the 'water element grass'

''2000'' Shun Long said in the same tone as before. 'The water element grass' was very important to him because he needed it to refine a rank 2 'internal destruction' pill.

The young man from below pondered for a while but still gritted his teeth as he declared

''2200 sect points''

It was clear that this young man also needed a 'water element grass'.

''3000'' Shun Long calling out again made the young man in the 'outer seat' feel sad.

The people in the hall were surprised that the price of 'water element grass' had reached double its market price. Normally a 'water element grass' would sell for 1300 sect points.

Even if the price went up, it would not exceed 1500 sect points but Shun Long had bid 3000 sect points for it.

After Shun Long's bid of the sect's 3000 points, no one competed with him for the 'water element grass' anymore and the staff of the 'Treasure Pavilion' send someone to send it to his private room as well as collect payment.

After Shun Long obtained the 'water element grass', he muttered

''Now all I need is 'fire spirit fruit'.''

Yin Xing looked like he wanted to say something but he did not know how to say it. Shun Long turned his gaze towards him and said

Yin Xing nodded his head as he replied

'' Senior, although no one from the upper echelon of our pavilion would care even if they knew that you slightly raised the price of the first 3 bottles of 'Qi barrier breaking pills', the price of the first 'Qi barrier breaking pill', I'm worried that problems could arise because of senior Li's identity.

Senior Li is a high-ranking member in our 'floating cloud sect' and I'm afraid he might try to create some trouble for seniors when you leave our 'Hare Pavilion.''

Shun Long nodded at Yin Xing's words but he couldn't show any fear towards Li Wei or it could reveal his identity. After all, Shun Long should also be a high-level alchemist. After thinking about it for a moment he said

''Although I am not afraid of any problems this Li Wei might try to cause, I still do not want to waste my time with her.''

The way Shun Long spoke who did not care was really fooling Yin Xing who then replied

''Then if senior doesn't mind, how about you leave the pavilion after getting everything you need.''

Shun Long pondered for a while before nodding his head

''Not a bad idea. Then let's follow your plan.'' Shun Long said with his unconcerned but heavy voice.

Yin Xing wiped the sweat off his forehead as he thought inside

''Thank goodness the senior was very aloof and did not care about fighting with others because of small matters, otherwise if I had to mediate their quarrel with senior Li, it would be fine for me, I will not have enough layers of skin to save myself.''

What Yin Xing did not know was that Shun Long was also trying to figure out a way to avoid Li Wei or that it would reveal his identity if they were to actually fight. After all, Li Wei must have reached the Heaven level as a silver-level alchemist, and Shun Long would be helpless in front of him if they were to really fight.

''I have to get stronger. My level of progress is not enough. People like Li Wei, and even people like Yin Xing were already much stronger than me. If I want to establish a foothold in the 'cultivation world', I must become stronger than these people. I will do my best to reach the Heaven level, because only then can I fight with people like Li Wei.''

Just as Shun Long was about to sort through his thoughts, with his goal of reaching Heaven level, the triangle-shaped stone sucked his consciousness, and an extremely powerful force repelled everything around Shun Long.

The decorations inside the room and even the sofa made from the fur of a rank 2 magical beast were all smashed to pieces while Yin Xing who was at the door of the room was thrown out like a cannonball.

Everything within a radius of 10 meters around Shun Long was repelled and the heavenly pressure that seemed to be emitted by his body could be felt by everyone in the entire 'Auction Hall'.

Everyone felt like they would be crushed from this terrifying pressure because they could not even breathe properly. Even Li Wei was kneeling inside his private room due to this terrifying pressure. His eyes were full of terror as he looked towards Shun Long's room and thought of the man he wanted revenge for, who was now emitting such pressure.
