In the main hall of the Ji Mansion, Ji Tianyu instantly shot up from his chair in surprise, looking at the system screen in front of him with confusion.
Opportunity?
What opportunity of Su Yang did Haotian seize?
Could it be related to the auction at Jade Cloud Pavilion today!?
As his mind raced, several conjectures had already appeared in his mind.
He naturally knew about today's monthly auction taking place at the Jade Cloud Pavilion, and he even knew that both Su Yang and Ji Haotain had gone there.
Nevermind, although it may not be a good thing to provoke a Son of Destiny so early on, at least I got some Fortune Points.
300 Fortune Points... it means that the opportunity Haotian seized might be related to the Innate Realm.
By now, Ji Tianyu had basically understood all about Fortune Points.
0 to 9 Fortune Points corresponded to the Body Tempering Realm, 10 to 99 corresponded to the Meridian Cleansing Realm, 100 to 999 corresponded to the Innate Realm, and so on.
A single digit increased with every higher realm.
Since he had obtained 300 Fortune Points, this indicated the opportunity obtained by Ji Haotian from Su Yang was an Innate Realm opportunity.
Innate Realm figures were truly rare across all of Baiyun Prefecture.
The fact that Su Yang could have obtained such an opportunity just a couple of weeks after his golden finger activated said a lot about his protagonist halo and absurd luck.
It might even pose a problem to the Ji Mansion in the future if left unchecked.
Nonetheless, since this opportunity had already been intercepted by Ji Haotian, Ji Tianyu was too lazy to care about other things.
Looking at the 300 Fortune Points, he couldn't resist opening the system shop and sorted everything there according to his current budget.
Although most things here were useless to him, as he was already a peak Innate Realm expert, it had to be said that this system store truly had valuable items.
Spirit Artifacts, Pills, cultivation methods, combat arts, some treasures of heaven and earth, and even identities!
[Eighth Elder of the Baiyun Prefecture Wu Family Manor Identity: 200 FP.
Innate Breaking Heavenly Pill: 100 FP.
Yin-Yang Spirit Grass: 30 FP...]
Seeing the dazzling array of items, Ji Tianyu's gaze zeroed in on a very peculiar thing.
[Yin-Yang Innate Spirit Pill: 150 FP.
Introduction: the Yin-Yang Innate Spirit Pill is a miraculous elixir made with the Yin-Yang Spirit Grass as its main ingredient. This pill cannot be found anywhere on the Vast Earth Continent, it's formula was developed by the Heavenly Furnace Sect of the Ancient Continent more than ten thousand years ago. It can allow a cultivator to smoothly bypass the bottleneck at the Meridian Cleansing Realm peak and enter the Innate Realm, subtly enhancing their aptitude as well.]
It can allow someone to break through to the Innate Realm!?
Good stuff!
Ji Tianyu praised approvingly before directly buying a Yin-Yang Innate Spirit Pill.
Right now, the Ji Mansion had 4 Innate Realm cultivators including him and 27 Meridian Cleansing Realm cultivators. This pull could directly allow them to gain another Innate Realm combat power.
Having developed the Ji Mansion for over 15 years, it would be wrong to say that Ji Tianyu didn't care for his subordinates.
There was a reason why Elder Huang, the Guard Captain, and Vice Guard Captain were so loyal to him despite also being Innate Realm cultivators.
Although they didn't know his exact cultivation base, they were perfectly capable of leaving the Ji Mansion to establish their own force, leaving behind a legacy for decades and centuries, but chose not to.
It was because their current heights were all because of Ji Tianyu, and they were not ungrateful people who would forget their roots.
Now, an extra Innate Realm expert would only help the development of the Ji Mansion and allow Ji Tianyu to prepare for the future troubles that would continue to increase as Ji Haotian grew.
A Great Emperor Bloodline was destined to make countless enemies. If the force behind him was not strong enough, it would pay the price of annihilation.
He wanted to make the Ji Mansion a force capable of suppressing the world with a stomp of its feet, to make those coveting Ji Haotian's opportunities and trying to bring him down dare not raise their head in its presence, like those ancient holy clans and secret forbidden sects in the novels he had read in his past life.
Immediately, he called over Elder Huang and handed him the Yin-Yang Innate Spirit Pill, telling him to give it to a trustworthy individual at the peak of the Meridian Cleansing Realm.
He was somewhat confused at first, but after hearing that this Pill could allow someone to enter the Innate Realm, his expression changed drastically and he hurriedly left after cupping his fists.
As for the remaining 150 Fortune Points, Ji Tianyu left them as is.
He didn't have to increase his cultivation using such methods, as his cultivation could increase when Ji Haotian faced powerful enemies.
He only needed to improve his combat prowess, such as divine arts and spells, and most importantly, he had to buy a sufficiently powerful physique for himself after gaining more Fortune Points so that his talent won't appear too shabby next to his son.
The rest, he would just give it to Ji Haotian and other members of the Ji Mansion.
...
"...And with that, the monthly auction of our Jade Cloud Pavilion has hence concluded! Guests, the items will be shortly delivered to you!"
The plump auctioneer's voice rang out as the enthusiasm slowly died down, with cultivators standing up and seeing themselves outside the auction house.
Su Yang and Su Qingxian didn't buy anything this time, the latter only came because she wanted to stay close to Su Yang, and the former only wanted the Yin-Yang Spirit Grass, aside from it, there were no more valuable items here in his eyes.
At this moment, Su Yang's heart was filled with endless regret, if only he had more money, he could have bought that herb and allowed his father to break through to the Innate Realm, reducing a lot of pressure for the Su Mansion.
However, he quickly adjusted his mindset. This was merely a small setback in his journey, he still had to cultivate and defeat Yun Qingxue 3 years later, then travel the world to make a name for himself, contend with the prodigies of the generation and stand out for a chance to reach the summit, ascending to godhood!
It could be said that his worldview had improved a lot ever since he came into contact with Yan Shen.
He now knew that beyond the Nascent Soul Realm was the Spiritual Enlightenment Realm, and beyond even the Spiritual Enlightenment Realm was the Dharma Manifestation Realm!
Yan Shen was a powerful figure at the Dharma Manifestation Realm when he was alive, capable of destroying the Great Jing with a casual wave of his hand!
However, that was not the end, as beyond the Dharma Manifestation Realm were the Sacred Realm, Void Transformation Realm, and the legendary pinnacle of the Mortal World, the Tribulation Transcendence Realm!
Even Yan Shen had never seen a Void Transformation Realm powerhouse in person, only knowing historical records about their existence, while the Tribulation Transcendence Realm was almost like a myth, with scattered records across the world.
It was said that to continue cultivating, a Tribulation Transcendence Realm cultivator has to undergo Lightning Tribulations to ascend to godhood and enter the realm of gods, attaining an unimaginably long lifespan and supreme power.
Yan Shen didn't even know if the Tribulation Transcendence Realm still existed in this world, much less the legends of godhood, but Su Yang believed him nonetheless.
This had now become the greatest dream of Su Yang, to fight to the top of this world and ascend to the realm of gods.
On the other hand, Su Qingxian had completely different thoughts.
She could see that Su Yang was very disappointed to not be able to buy that Yin-Yang Spirit Grass.
Just then, a voice suddenly echoed in her mind.
"Young miss, do you want this subordinate to find out who bought that Yin-Yang Spirit Grass?"
It was voice transmission, an ability only usable by those at or above the Qi Refinement Realm.
Hearing this, Su Qingxian's eyes narrowed ever so slightly as she nodded subtly.
In a teahouse several hundred meters from Su Yang and Su Qingxian's location, a middle aged man calmly sipped his tea and stood up, casually throwing a tael of silver to the shop owner before disappearing.
...
Back in the Jade Cloud Pavilion, Ji Haotian looked at the box containing the Yin-Yang Spirit Grass in his hand with satisfaction before tossing it towards Xue'er who clumsily caught it, almost tripping over in the process.
Just as their group prepared to leave, the plump man, who was the auctioneer, came to their room, cupping his fists.
"Young master Ji is truly as magnificent as the rumors say, it is this humble one's honor to be able to meet the young master today!"
He said with an amicable smile.
Ji Haotian raised an eyebrow, "Senior, you jest. This junior is not worthy of your praise. I'm certain that the reason you're here is not merely to talk?"
"Hahaha, brilliant but humble, these are truly the traits of someone destined for greatness! Indeed, young master, this subordinate is here because our young miss from the main branch wishes to meet the young master."
