No cheat code, right? I'll make one myself.

Chapter 116: Fragments of the World Tree

The auction began as a maid pushed a car into the auction hall.

"The first item is a bottle of medicine."

The old man on the stage lifted the cloth on the cart, revealing a small jade bottle and said, "A seventh-grade elixir, three thousand spirit stones is the starting price. As for the efficacy, I cannot reveal it for now. Someone who refines the elixir will introduce it to you later, and the price difference must not be less than 100 spirit stones."

"So, will anyone really make an offer?"

Yunlin listened to the old man's introduction, but he didn't have much interest in this elixir.

"This should be a kind of gambling. Maybe the people who auctioned these people intend to let the items go unsold. Or maybe they also want to get these things."

Luo Ling said softly.

"Then can you sense the effect of the elixir?"

After hearing Yunlin's words, Luo Ling said in an annoyed tone: "I've already told you that I'm not omnipotent. I'm so far away, I can't even smell it, and I haven't even seen its appearance. How can I judge it?"

Just as Yunlin guessed, the audience fell silent after the old man finished speaking. However, the old man on the stage did not show any sign of impatience. After waiting for a while, he slowly said, "Last three rings. If no one bids, we will move on to the next item."

Yunlin was a little unsure from his expression, but he still had no intention of making an offer.

After the old man's last words, there was still no bid, so the bottle of elixir was sold at a loss. The maid then pushed the cart away, and another maid came up with the second item.

"This item is a low-grade spiritual weapon, but unfortunately, it is not in the shape of a sword?"

As he spoke, he lifted the cloth on the cart, and a ring lay quietly on the tray of the cart. Yunlin lost interest after taking a glance.

"The starting price is 100 Spirit Stones, and each bid increase must not be less than ."

This time, there were a lot more people bidding than before, but most of them just took a look.

The final transaction price of this item was 5,100 spirit stones.

When another maid pushed the next item up, Yunlin said to Luo Ling in his mind: "It seems that people in the sword world prefer swords to spiritual weapons. If it is a sword, the price of this spiritual weapon may increase a lot, right?"

"Each world has something that it lacks. If you go to many worlds, you can even become a merchant between worlds. For example, if you connect two worlds, one is a world lacking water, and the other is a world with an overwhelming amount of water, you can make a profit by reselling your goods in both worlds, and you will never lack spiritual stones or flowers in your life."

"It's a pity. Although prices fluctuate between the sword world and the human world, they generally don't change much. I haven't found anything with huge profits yet."

"The third item is a special one that was added temporarily. If it is promoted in advance, it can even be used as the finale, so its starting price is 10,000 spirit stones."

The old man on the stage kept the audience in suspense when he was talking about this product, and his movements were also much slower when he unveiled the curtain, obviously intending to arouse the interest of those present.

"The Sword Spirit Disk has not been used yet. If I prepare it for the younger generation in my family, it can be said to be a great gift."

There was a dark disk on the stand, but in the center there was a small sword flashing a faint light. When Yunlin saw the item clearly, his hands trembled and he even wanted to slap himself, because he was very familiar with this item, which was what he was selling.

"Damn, if the loss is huge, the base price is 10,000, so what will the final price be?"

"Are you sure you haven't used it?"

"I can use my reputation as a guarantee. It is indeed unused. As for the price increase, I will not limit it. You can do whatever you want."

Faced with the noise in the venue, Laozi just waved his hand, explained a few words, and then started the auction of this item.

"Twenty thousand spiritual stones."

"Twenty-five thousand dollars."

"Thirty thousand."

Listening to the price rising continuously, Yunlin felt his heart bleeding. He also became more and more aware of the importance of knowledge. If he had recognized this thing at that time, the spirit stones on him could have at least doubled.

"This is heartbreaking. It's just tens of thousands of spirit stones. Why do you care so much? You will travel more often in the future, and the spirit stones you can control cannot be described in numbers."

Luo Ling was comforting him quietly, but her comfort was useless. Yun Lin shook his head helplessly and said, "But those were after I became stronger. Now I am very poor. I only have a little over 10,000 spirit stones on me."

In the end, the price of this item was fixed at 36,000 spirit stones. Seeing the delighted expression of the man who was handing over the item, Yunlin felt more and more uncomfortable.

"The next item is a branch of the World Tree. There is no limit on the base price and no limit on the price increase."

"A branch of the World Tree?"

After listening to the old man's words, Yunlin asked in a low voice, and Luo Ling had already started to get acquainted.

"There is a giant plant in every world. Legend has it that these plants are the way to ascend to heaven, but in fact they just grow taller. The tree has long disappeared, and I didn't expect to find a branch here."

After hearing his explanation, Yuan Lin was stunned, but after thinking about it, he did not give up the idea in his mind. If it was really a branch of the World Tree, the price would be many times higher. However, the reaction of the people after the old man finished speaking was a little strange. What they saw was just a piece of white paper.

"This item, which has been unsold six times, was finally available this time. If someone is willing to pay a spiritual stone to buy it, the old man will probably be happy to give it to them."

A person sitting next to Yunlin said in a low voice, and when Yunlin looked at the branches of the World Tree in the field, he was a little stunned. If the old man didn't explain, he would just think that this was a piece of coal found from somewhere, all black and no wooden structure could be seen at all.

"100 Spiritual Stones."

Although he heard what the person next to him said, Yunlin did not make the decision to bid only one spirit stone. If someone was fighting for it, he would not take it. After all, it was just an attempt.

"My fellow Taoists, I offer 100. Is there anyone who can offer a higher price?"

After trying to ask three times, no one answered. The coal-like branch of the world tree fell into Lin's hands. After going to the backstage to settle the bill, Yunlin had an extra piece of black charcoal in his hand.

“How do we know for sure?”

After getting it, Yunlin returned to his seat and asked Luo Lin in a low voice.

"It is indeed a branch of the World Tree, but it has been burned once by the Law of Fire. If it were an ordinary person, it would be useless, but your words can restore it to life."

"Law of Fire?"

"This is not a law that you can touch. It is something that God can control. Things that have been tainted by the law can only be eliminated through the law or divine power. As for a branch like this, no one would be willing to expend their own divine power to restore it, but you can."

After a pause, Luo Ling sighed and said, "The World Tree should have been burned by a god, but it is not clear which god it was."

"If you want to use divine power to eliminate it, I have the ability to do so. I only have that little divine power."

After hearing Luo Ling's words, Yun Lin said helplessly. Luo Ling said in a low voice: "I didn't ask you to touch that divine power. Just use ordinary spiritual energy to flush it. It will take about ten days to restore it to its original state. The laws above have been in place for who knows how many years. Use your spiritual energy to disperse it."

"Haven't you discovered it yet? Your aura, compared to others, contains vitality. This should be your own characteristic, not given to you by the soul jade or the divine body. This may be the essence of your cultivation that you can never lose no matter what."

After hearing Luo Ling's words, Yun Lin was stunned. He knew that his spiritual energy was rich in vitality. When he went to a world, he used the remaining power in his dantian to save a person, but he was very angry that time. But he thought that spiritual energy had this effect, but if that was the case, it should be that only his spiritual energy could have this effect.

After confirming that the thing in his hand was a real world book, Yunlin put it into his Qiankun bag. However, when he sat down, someone next to him asked him in a mean way:

"Brother, why would you pay for a piece of junk? Can you find anything special about it?"

Yunlin just smiled and said calmly, "I heard the word 'world' in its name, and since he didn't offer anything, I tried to buy it. But I didn't expect that he would spend even 100 spirit stones on it. I just took it as a lesson learned."

"Oh brother, this is your first time at an auction, right?"

"Yep."

There is nothing to hide about this, and Yunlin doesn't like to be called a veteran. Just because someone doesn't understand something is not a big deal.

"Then you have to be careful when buying things. First of all, you have to see the reactions of the people present before bidding. Generally, valuable things will be snatched up by people. Don't buy the things that no one wants after the host says they are worth buying. It is likely to be a scam."

The man glanced around the venue and continued, "These people are all experienced. It's impossible to find a bargain right under their noses, especially for something that has been unsold several times. The fact that it has been unsold multiple times has already proven that the item has no value."

"Thank you." Yunlin said softly to the man in front of him. The man's reminder to him was a kind gesture, and Yunlin had no reason to say bad things to him. Although he did take advantage of a loophole right under the noses of these people, this was not something he could say.

"You're welcome. It's not easy to get by here. Sometimes giving others a little reminder may be good for both of us."

After Yunlin heard what he said, he continued to look at the field. He was not the type of person who liked to chat with strangers, but he couldn't just not respond when someone talked to him. What he said just now was already a respect for the enemy. When the man saw that Yunlin stopped talking, he also tactfully stopped talking.

"god?"

Although Yunlin looked towards the center, he did not focus on it. Instead, he thought about a question: what kind of existence is God? And what kind of state is he in now?

"Don't talk, let me think about it. You probably have some restrictions that you can't tell me, so just let me think about it."

Luo Ling in the mind had just said a word when he was interrupted by Yun Lin. After listening to Yun Lin's words, Luo Ling fell silent.

"It's true that the one who sent me here was a god. From what he said at the time, a god should be a being that manages a world. But why is the human world managed by the will of heaven and earth instead of by gods? Could it be that gods are the will of heaven and earth?"

But soon, Yunlin shook his head again. The will of heaven and earth and God should not be the same existence. Although he didn't know the reason in his heart, he inexplicably had this idea in his mind. Yunlin had no intention of rejecting this idea.

"Aura?"

Yunlin thought about the gap between the worlds and found that it seemed to be the spiritual energy. As a huge difference, although he didn't know the reason, Yunlin always felt that there was always an inexplicable connection between the spiritual energy god and the will of heaven and earth. After thinking for a while, Yunlin moved this topic out of his mind. Now he has received too little information, his cultivation is too low, and he is not qualified to know some things.

"Don't think about it. If you want to know, ask the Lord God directly when you see him next time. He is qualified to let you know."

After seeing Yunlin stop thinking, Luo Ling said in a low voice.

Yunlin shook his head without commenting on his suggestion.

Although he could ask the Lord God three more questions next time he saw him, Yunlin did not want to waste time on these three questions. He hoped to get some answers on cultivation.

Or you may get certain questions at some point in the future and have to get answers, and then have the opportunity to use these three questions.

"Luo Ling, what do you think is my current level of cultivation among all the worlds? Just tell me the truth, I can bear it."

After getting Yunlin's assurance, Luo Ling thought about it without hesitation and finally said two words: ant.

"With your current cultivation, you can't make any waves among the common people. Maybe you can act arrogantly in the material plane without spiritual energy, but in the Nine Realms, you are just an ant."

"Material plane?"

Yun Ling accurately found an important noun in a sentence, but after he asked it, Luo Ling became silent again.

"It's like this again. No movement."
