Chapter 187: Fake Emperor-grade Supernormal Knowledge
Treasure Pavilion Auction was the largest auction in the Great Qin Dynasty, and every time it helped an auction, rare treasures would appear. Even Sage King weapons could be bought here, though one would have to pay a great price.
Qin Chen followed the familiar aura and arrived at the auction. He saw that the Treasure Pavilion was auctioning the final item, the Five Feathers Fan that Qin Chen had refined.
On the auction stage, the Five Feathers Fan was placed under a glass cover that had a restriction placed by a Venerable, preventing ordinary people from lifting it.
In addition, there were many powerful auras around the auction stage. Preliminary sensing it, Qin Feng knew that there were at least one Venerable and four Kings around. Even an ordinary Holy Land wouldn’t be able to bring out such a powerful lineup.
Qin Chen’s eyes narrowed. Then, he suddenly looked at a sky-level private room on the second floor. In that private room, he could actually sense the aura of a Sage. Although it was very subtle, he could still catch it with his sharp senses.
Due to the array set up by the Sage around the private room, Qin Chen could not tell who the person inside was. However, he was sure that he had met this person before. He must have attended the human race conference during the day.
A Qiyao King was hosting the auction. He looked at the introduction of the Five Feather Fan in his hand and couldn’t help but say loudly, “Everyone, today’s finale is an extraordinary treasure. It’s a Sage King supreme-grade weapon, the legendary Five Feathers Fan!”
As soon as he finished speaking, the entire auction house instantly flooded with excited chatter. Many experts secretly released their soul power to check the Five Feathers Fan but were all blocked by the glass cover in the end. Then, all of them showed serious expressions.
On the second floor, an old level 7 Heavenly King suddenly spoke, “There are no Supreme Sage weapons in this world. The Sage King supreme-grade weapons are the most powerful weapons now. Why would the Treasure Pavilion auction off such a treasure? Is there something fishy going on?”
The host looked over and cupped his hands, “Please rest assured, the Treasure Pavilion has never cheated anyone. There’s no problem with the quality of this Sage King supreme-grade weapon. However, the seller’s request is also very high. He wants an emperor-grade supernormal knowledge and cultivation technique. If anyone is interested, please tell me the grade and name of the cultivation technique and the supernormal knowledge that you have. After the seller has made his decision, we can proceed with the exchange.”
“Hmph! To think the seller dares to demand an exorbitant price! Emperor-grade techniques and supernormal knowledge are extremely precious, and they’re the foundation of all the major factions. Even though a Sage King supreme-grade weapon is precious, it can’t be compared to the emperor-grade techniques and supernormal knowledge.”
“This fellow Daoist is right. Is there anyone here who can produce an emperor-grade supernormal knowledge and cultivation technique at the same time? Host, you should persuade the seller to change the condition!”
“That’s right. The Taiyue Sect can only offer one Sage-grade cultivation technique and one emperor-grade supernormal knowledge. However, we can also add in a two-hundred-thousand-year-old Sage herb.”
Everyone was shocked by these words. Sage herbs could increase one’s lifespan by thousands of years. It was enough to bring a person back from the dead. Even a Sage would yearn for such an item.
At this moment, someone in an earth-level private room on the second floor suddenly said, “I have an emperor-grade supernormal knowledge and cultivation technique here that can satisfy the seller’s request.”
Everyone looked over in shock. Many experts released their soul power again. They wanted to know who was so rich that he could take out an emperor-grade supernormal knowledge and cultivation technique at once. Could it be the descendant of some imperial clan?
Qin Chen was also surprised. He did not expect that such a small auction could gather so many experts. To think they could even exchange for emperor-grade supernormal knowledge and cultivation techniques.
However, the Five Feathers Fan was a treasure that he had spent a lot of effort to refine. Its quality was definitely not only at the grade of a Sage King supreme-grade weapon, but even beyond a Supreme Sage weapon. Naturally, Qin Chen was unwilling for it to fall into the hands of others.
After discreetly changing his appearance, using the power of a great path to conceal his looks, and suppressing his aura to that of the King realm, Qin Chen raised his paddle and said, “I also have an emperor-grade supernormal knowledge and cultivation technique that I can trade with the seller.”
The crowd looked over with disbelief. Many experts sent their soul powers over, but they were all blocked by Qin Chen.
At this moment, the people in the heaven-level and earth-level private rooms sent out their soul powers as well. what surprised Qin Chen was that both of them were Sages! However, even if it was the soul power of a Sage, Qin Chen could easily hide from it and not expose his identity.
Just as everyone was in shock, there was movement from the heaven-level private room as the person in it said, “I’m also willing to exchange for the weapon with an emperor-grade supernormal knowledge and cultivation technique.”
Everyone could no longer remain calm as they had question marks on their faces. Someone exclaimed, “Damn, that’s emperor-grade supernormal knowledge and cultivation techniques! To think seven of them appeared all of a sudden, this is too unbelievable!”
“Junior, there’s no need to be so surprised. We’re talking about emperor-grade techniques and supernormal knowledge, but in fact, they’re fake ones created by God-realm experts. Although they’re precious, they’re still far from the real emperor-grade techniques and supernormal knowledge. Most of the big factions on Canglan Continent have them,” An old man stood out to explain, and only then did everyone quiet down. After all, if there really were seven Emperor-grade supernormal knowledge and cultivation techniques, it would probably cause a huge uproar. It wouldn’t be strange even if some old monsters were drawn out.
Qin Chen was a little surprised. This was the first time he had heard of such a thing. As for the fake emperor-grade supernormal knowledge and cultivation techniques, he naturally had them. After all, he had been checking in at the Taiyi Holy Land for so many years.
Seeing that everyone had calmed down, the host bowed at Qin Chen and the private rooms on the second floor before saying loudly, “Please tell our attendant the grade and characteristics of your cultivation technique and supernormal knowledge. We will pass it on to the seller and he will decide on the final result.”
As soon as he finished speaking, a curvaceous waitress with an alluring figure walked toward Qin Chen. She was a very good-looking Master realm cultivator. No matter which family or holy land she was in, she would’ve definitely been a target of nurturing, but here, she could only be a waitress!
“Sir, you can use voice transmission to tell me about your supernormal knowledge and cultivation technique. The auction house will definitely not leak the information you have given,” The waitress said in a sweet voice and even threw a flirtatious look at Qin Chen.
Qin Chen had a heart of steel, so he naturally wasn’t tempted. He transmitted his voice, “The items I’m offering are God-grade supernormal knowledge and cultivation technique. The cultivation technique is of the advanced God grade, called the Nine Yang Divine Technique. The supernormal knowledge is also of the advanced God grade, called the One Yang Divine Finger. The two complement each other, and their combined power is much stronger than any advanced God-grade supernormal knowledge and cultivation technique.”
