Mortal Seeking Immortal

The young man had a hint of majesty between his eyebrows. He looked up at the Wanbao Auction House in front of him, and saw a waiter guarding the entrance of the VIP passage hurriedly smiling and welcoming him: "I meet His Royal Highness the Eighth Prince."

"Please come in, Your Highness. The superiors learned that Your Highness would come to the auction today, so they specially reserved a box with the best view for you. If Your Highness is dissatisfied with anything, just let me know."

The Eighth Prince nodded calmly and was about to follow the waiter in when he saw a steward coming out. The Eighth Prince seemed to know the steward, and a smile appeared on his calm face: "Staff Zhang."

Staff Zhang bowed to the Eighth Prince and said, "Eighth Prince, please come in."

As the Eighth Prince followed Steward Zhang into the auction house, he asked casually, "Staff Zhang, I heard that my useless second brother broke the rules of your auction house a few days ago. Is this true?"

Manager Zhang smiled and said, "It's just a misunderstanding. Besides, the Second Prince has apologized. The Eighth Prince should not take it to heart."

The Eighth Prince nodded as if he understood and said, "It's good that he apologized, otherwise my father will inevitably punish him severely."

Manager Zhang seemed to remember something and asked, "I heard the Second Prince say that he would come to participate in this auction a few days ago. Why haven't I seen the Second Prince yet? Did something delay him on the way?"

The Eighth Prince replied indifferently, "No, he won't come to participate."

Manager Zhang asked in confusion, "Why?"

The Eighth Prince said, "I have ordered him to reflect on his mistakes behind closed doors and not to leave the house without reason."

The Eighth Prince and the others chatted while entering the auction house. After hearing what the Eighth Prince said, Ye Zhou on the side looked at the Eighth Prince curiously. It was hard to imagine why the Second Prince, who was in the middle stage of foundation building, would listen to the orders of the Eighth Prince, who was in the early stage of foundation building.

"It seems that the Eighth Prince is quite favored on weekdays, and he is the one who has the real chance to inherit the throne of Shengyun Kingdom."

Ye Zhou became a little wary of the Eighth Prince.

As soon as he entered Wanbao Auction House with the token, Ye Zhou was led to a secluded box on the second floor. The box was set up with a formation that could isolate the monks from detection and soundproof, and there was another set of exquisite and comfortable tables and chairs placed in front of the box.

Sitting on the chair, you can clearly see the auction table below through the thick shield.

Not long after Ye Zhou sat down, he heard a gentle knock on the door. The next moment, Xue Mei walked in with a jade slip with a smile on her face.

Ye Zhou's eyes instantly focused on the jade slip in Xue Mei's hand. Xue Mei directly handed the jade slip to Ye Zhou and said, "Mr. Ye, all the information about your friend that you asked us about is in it. Please take a look."

Ye Zhou took the jade slip and probed into it with his spiritual sense. After a moment, Ye Zhou withdrew his spiritual sense. A strange look appeared on his face, and he began to complain wildly in his heart: "He actually found a master of weapon refining as his master!"

It turned out that Gu Feng had just come to the imperial capital after going through hardships. Not long ago, he really found a master of weapon refining who was quite accomplished in weapon refining. This master was not only named Hu, but also looked 70% similar to what Ye Zhou had described to Gu Feng at the beginning.

Gu Feng believed in the identity of this master Hu without a doubt. He immediately showed his talent for weapon refining in front of Master Hu and wanted to worship Master Hu as his master.

When Master Hu saw that Gu Feng was such a good seedling, he immediately accepted Gu Feng as his apprentice and took him away from the imperial capital to travel around the world to find weapon refining materials.

Ye Zhou put down the jade slip in his hand and asked Xue Mei: "I wonder if you have found out where Master Hu is now?"

Wanbao Auction House is open all over the Linghuan Continent, and no one can match it in terms of finding people.

Xue Mei smiled bitterly and shook her head and said: "Mr. Ye, you don't know that although our Wanbao Auction House has many branches, most of them are located in cities with dense cultivators."

"Master Hu likes to look for refining materials in the wilderness and uninhabited places in his life. He rarely enters towns. In addition, in order to avoid the trouble of refining for others, he often changes his appearance. It is as difficult as finding a needle in a haystack to find his trace."

After hearing Xue Mei's words, Ye Zhou felt a little disappointed and regretted that he did not leave a communication talisman when Gu Feng left.

After a moment, Ye Zhou swept away the disappointment in his heart and comforted himself: "That's good. The four sects and three schools have to give face to Master Hu and dare not offend him easily. With Master Hu's protection, Gu Feng should not be implicated by the Blood Spirit Sect."

Ye Zhou then asked Xue Mei how many spirit stones he needed to pay for this information. Xue Mei just smiled indifferently and offered a low price of 300 spirit stones, and planned to deduct it from Ye Zhou's batch of auction items. Ye Zhou naturally agreed and was very grateful to Xue Mei.

The two chatted for a while, and Ye Zhou learned some more detailed information about the ancient cultivator's secret realm from Xue Mei.

According to the analysis of the area, barrier, and ancient cultivator's secret records handed down by the special person sent by Wanbao Auction House, it was roughly inferred that the owner of this secret realm was a cultivator named Jin Yangzi in the Refining Void Realm.

In his early years, Jin Yangzi was betrayed by his disciples because of the secret book of the skills he mastered. After killing all his disciples, he gave up the idea of ​​accepting disciples.

From then on, Jin Yangzi never accepted another disciple. After reaching the Lianxu realm, Jin Yangzi disappeared without a trace.

No one knew where Jin Yangzi went. There was only a rumor that Jin Yangzi had opened up a secret realm with his inheritance and a large number of rare treasures. This secret realm would appear in the world after several years, looking for a destined person to obtain his inheritance.

But countless years have passed, and no one has found the secret realm left by Jin Yangzi, so some people in the world of immortal cultivation began to question the authenticity of this secret realm. Unexpectedly, thousands of years later, this legendary secret realm actually appeared on its own initiative!

What Ye Zhou was most interested in was that Jin Yangzi was a master of alchemy who had great attainments in alchemy. The secret realm he left behind might contain a large number of precious alchemy recipes, as well as the natural materials and treasures needed for alchemy, and even the most important material for refining the foundation-building pill of the Heavenly Dao - the energy of chaos!

Xue Mei then told Ye Zhou another not-so-good news.

In order to increase the price of the secret realm key and gain huge profits from it, Wanbao Auction House spread the news that this secret realm was left by Jin Yangzi throughout the Linghuan Continent.

Now the imperial capital has flooded with many Tianjiao below the Jindan stage on the Linghuan Continent, and almost every super Tianjiao is determined to obtain Jin Yangzi's inheritance.

Moreover, many aristocratic families are ready to jointly bid for a secret realm inner key, and this secret realm inner key will definitely be sold at a sky-high price.

Ye Zhou's expression did not change significantly when he heard this.

In terms of financial resources alone...

Ye Zhou has a mountain of spiritual plants, and he also obtained the family assets of the head of the Blood Spirit Sect. There are hundreds of thousands of spiritual stones in his storage space. He is not afraid of competing with the geniuses of various major forces for the key at the auction.

Xue Mei was slightly shocked when she saw Ye Zhou's calm appearance.

"As expected of a disciple of a terrifying existence, his financial resources must be very strong!"
