The poorest member of the Imperial Guard, the Empress begged me to embezzle.

"what?"

"The unclaimed physical body of a Qiankun Realm expert?"

Chu Xiu raised his hand, and the previously agitated audience quieted down.

Bai Tiao stepped forward and placed the body of a woman dressed in a Taoist robe on the display stand.

"This is the physical body of a mid-stage Qiankun Realm expert. Its owner wants to barter for a mid-grade eighth-rank pill—the Reincarnation Pill!"

"It's actually a human body!"

Soon, knowledgeable people recognized the true nature of this Qiankun Realm corpse.

In the Celestial Continent, there is a universally acknowledged fact: the human race possesses the greatest talent for cultivation in the world.

Generally speaking, after possessing a physical body, one's highest cultivation level will be forever limited to the realm range before the death of the original owner of that body.

For example, if someone possesses the body of a powerhouse at the early stage of the Qiankun Realm, their cultivation level in this lifetime will likely remain between the early and middle stages of the Qiankun Realm, and they will be unable to grow any further.

However, if one could seize the body of a human expert at the Qiankun Realm, there was a very high probability that one could advance further beyond their original cultivation level before their passing.

If a powerful individual who has lost their physical body buys the body of a human Qiankun Realm expert, not only will their cultivation level be restored to the mid-stage of the Qiankun Realm the moment they complete the possession, but they will also have the opportunity to break through to the Great Perfection of the Qiankun Realm in the future, or even above the Qiankun Realm!

"Reincarnation Pill?"

"They actually want to exchange for the Reincarnation Pill?"

"Could it be that the owner of this Qiankun Realm expert's corpse was actually someone who needed the Reincarnation Pill to overcome the Great Perfection Heavenly Tribulation of Reincarnation?"

The moment the terms of the traded goods were announced, they immediately sparked discussion among the audience, especially those on the second floor.

How could someone who couldn't even pass the Great Perfection Heavenly Tribulation of the Reincarnation Realm on his own possess the corpse of a Qiankun Realm expert?

It's really a crime to possess a treasure.

In an instant, powerful individuals who were also at the Great Perfection of the Reincarnation Realm began to extend their divine senses, attempting to locate the owner.

However, this action undoubtedly violated the rules of the Heavenly Auction.

Chu Xiu's eyes turned cold. In just one glance, he identified the person who dared to spread his divine sense throughout the entire area in front of him.

Chu Xiu unleashed the aura of a powerful early-stage Qiankun Realm expert. With a swift movement, he grabbed the Great Perfection Samsara Realm cultivator by the throat with an invisible force, then delivered a punch to the cultivator's chest, causing the cultivator's body to go limp and rendering him incapable of resistance.

He punched him in the head again, the force perfectly controlled, knocking him unconscious without damaging his foundation. Then, in full view of everyone, he threw him directly out of the air-tossed building.

Having done all this, Chu Xiu coldly glanced at the completely silent audience.

"If anyone oversteps the bounds again, I, Chu, will not show such leniency!"

After saying that, he looked at the human female corpse.

"The physical body of a mid-stage Qiankun Realm expert, starting price: one mid-grade eighth-rank pill—the Reincarnation Pill!"

Two!

Three!

"Five!"

"..."

Ten!

Once the price reached ten Revolving Pills, no further price increases were heard.

Even though Chu Xiu rarely came into contact with pills, as was the common understanding among cultivators of the Heavenly Continent, he naturally knew the preciousness of the Reincarnation Pill.

One Reincarnation Pill can increase the success rate of a cultivator who is unable to pass the Reincarnation Realm Tribulation on their own by 10%, and the success rate can be increased by consuming multiple Reincarnation Pills.

These pills can be considered to have been refined against the laws of nature, and their difficulty in refining them is even greater than that of high-grade eighth-rank pills.

Before each person at the Great Perfection of the Reincarnation Realm undergoes the Heavenly Tribulation to advance to the Qiankun Realm, they will risk their entire fortune to exchange for a few Reincarnation Pills in order to increase their chances of successfully passing the tribulation.

After all, if one fails to transcend the tribulation, one will die and one's cultivation will be destroyed. No matter how much wealth one possesses, it will only benefit others.

"Ten Reincarnation Pills, once!"

"Ten Reincarnation Pills, twice!"

"Ten Reincarnation Pills, three times, deal!"

After Chu Xiu made the final decision, someone in a corner on the second floor let out an uncontrollable cheer.

Instantly, everyone's attention was drawn to this person.

"idiot!"

Chu Xiu was speechless.

It's unbelievable that such stupid people exist in this world.

That person must be the owner of that Qiankun Realm corpse. He couldn't help but cheer after seeing his item auctioned off for the price he expected!

In an instant, this person became the target of everyone's criticism.

The man seemed to realize his lapse in composure, hurriedly put on a mask to conceal his identity, and quickly left the audience.

But soon, some people with ill intentions also left their seats and secretly followed behind that person.

Chu Xiu was speechless for a moment. Even if the person who provided the auction item had an agreement with the Demon Yama Sect, the person's personal safety had to be guaranteed before the auction ended.

But no matter how much you try to protect him, you can't prevent this person from bringing disaster upon himself...

Chu Xiu turned his head and instructed Bai Yao, "Go and ask a Supreme Elder to take action and protect this person's life within the Heavenly-level Trading City. If he leaves the territory of our Demon Yama Sect, then his life or death is none of our concern."

"Yes."

Bai Yao lowered her head and retreated behind the scenes.

Chu Xiu then drew everyone's attention back to the display platform and continued to preside over the auction of the next items.

The third item up for auction is a celestial-grade alchemy cauldron produced by the Immortal Treasure Pavilion, which can greatly assist alchemists capable of refining eighth-grade pills and increase their success rate.

The cauldron was eventually auctioned off to a mid-grade eighth-level alchemist on the first floor, who was at the peak of the Transcendent Realm, for the price of ten mid-grade eighth-level pills.

The fourth item up for auction was a bottle of high-grade eighth-rank pills—Qian Yuan Pills—provided by the alchemist who purchased the third item.

The so-called Qian Yuan Dan is a pill made primarily from the essence and blood of a Qiankun Realm expert, supplemented with other rare and precious materials. It can directly enhance the cultivation level of a Qiankun Realm expert.

The usual Qian Yuan Dan is only a low-grade eighth-order pill, made from the essence and blood of a powerhouse in the early stage of the Qiankun Realm.

The Qian Yuan Pill provided by this mid-grade eighth-rank alchemist was actually a high-grade eighth-rank pill, which means that the essence blood he used came from a late-stage Qiankun Realm expert.

In the vast continent with its millions of cultivators, those who can cultivate to the Qiankun Realm are extremely rare. Forcing one's essence and blood out of the body is an act that damages one's foundation, and few early-stage Qiankun Realm experts are willing to do so, let alone late-stage Qiankun Realm experts.

This is what makes Qian Yuan Dan so rare and precious.

This alchemist was able to put out ten high-grade eighth-rank Qian Yuan Pills for auction in one go, which truly showed his amazing resources.

Although this alchemist was only at the Great Perfection of the Transcendent Realm, no one dared to openly reveal their covetousness.

Alchemists capable of refining eighth-grade high-quality alchemy must be protected by powerful experts at the late stage or even the Great Perfection of the Qiankun Realm, making them beings that ordinary cultivators cannot afford to provoke.

This is also the source of the alchemist's confidence in revealing his position and background without any hesitation.

Chu Xiu looked towards the first floor.

That eighth-grade high-level alchemist was actually a petite young girl, truly a genius rarely seen in the world.

The three black-robed guards surrounding her were all, without exception, experts at the early stage of the Qiankun Realm.

Strange, with her strength, she should be a guest of honor on the third floor, so why did she choose to sit on the first floor?

Chu Xiu withdrew his gaze: "Ten Grade 8 High-Quality Qian Yuan Pills, auction price—"

"Wait a minute!"

Just as Chu Xiu was about to announce the price of the Qian Yuan Pill, a gloomy voice rang out from the third floor, forcing Chu Xiu to swallow his words with the aura of a late-stage Qiankun Realm cultivator.
