Invitation declined; Multiverse Mall is now open for business.

"The gap! The gap is too big! Just one sentence, and I feel that my swordsmanship is as different from theirs as clouds and mud."

······

The group, who were initially disappointed and impatient, were now filled with excitement and anticipation.

Although the two have not officially faced off yet, everyone is quite clear about this.

Their move was earth-shattering.

"When I get back, I might find a swordsman to duel with and revise today's dialogue."

"I was hesitant about which weapon to use before, but now I have no hesitation at all. I will use a sword."

Many people were even more moved.

What could be more enjoyable than showing off?

Dugu Qiubai and Ximen Chuixue did not rush to make a move. They both looked at each other quietly, as if admiring and cherishing each other.

They didn't move, yet the pressure of stillness was stronger and more terrifying than that of movement.

This pressure, though invisible, is by no means intangible.

Everyone around felt tense, and all eyes were fixed on the two figures on the stage.

"Om~"

After an unknown amount of time, the sword energy soared into the sky.

Two immortal swords.

The sword has been thrust out.

The thrusting sword was not fast; there was still a considerable distance between Ximen Chuixue and Dugu Qiubai.

Before their swords even made contact, they began to shift constantly. Humans move slowly, but the swords shift rapidly, because their moves change at will before they are even unleashed.

For them at this point, sword techniques were superfluous.

His swordsmanship had reached a level where he could do whatever he wanted, achieving perfect harmony between man and sword.

In an instant, the two were within arm's reach.

"Hey!"

Dugu Qiubai's sword had already pierced Ximen Chuixue's chest, and blood was dripping down.

On the arena, an invisible wave swept across, and Ximen Chuixue fell off the arena, his wounds completely healed.

"What a pity~"

Dugu Qiubai sheathed his sword and sighed softly.

Ximen Chuixue is still just one step away.

Without true enlightenment, one cannot reach the state where one has no sword in hand but a sword in heart, and where everything in heaven and earth can be a sword.

Ximen Chuixue stood there, stunned.

Because, whether it's the speed of the sword or the understanding of the way of the sword, Dugu Qiubai is superior to him.

Neither of them mentioned the age difference.

Because, once you've lost, you've lost.

"Sigh~"

Many martial artists who say that the Innate Realm is the same as those who say that the Grandmaster Realm feels their scalp tingling.

too fast!

Neither Ximen Chuixue's sword nor Dugu Qiubai's sword could withstand their attacks.

If they can't catch a swordsman's sword, they are likely to be killed instantly.

"The upcoming lottery and auction at the Myriad Realms Mall will be held simultaneously."

After an unknown amount of time, Zi Nu's voice rang out again, bringing everyone back to their senses.

"Special Prize: Grandmaster-level martial arts, Tathagata Palm."

First Prize: Three Styles of Tathagata Palm.

Second Prize: Grandmaster-level martial arts, Prajna Palm.

"Third Prize: Innate-level martial arts, Nine Yang Divine Skill."

"Regular prize: ten taels of gold."

At the same time, information about the lucky draw also came to everyone's minds.

Each draw requires only 10 value points.

There will be no empty prizes in the lottery; even the most basic prize is ten taels of gold.

For many customers in the Myriad Realms Mall, ten taels of gold is not a small amount.

Even if they spend 100 value points to draw a prize and don't win any martial arts manuals, they can still get 100 taels of gold.

Those martial artists who didn't have enough value points were also attracted by the lottery event.

Because the first prize winner can obtain a portion of Grandmaster-level martial arts techniques.

The grand prize winner will receive the complete Tathagata Palm manual, an incredible reward.

If you're lucky, you might win the grand prize on your first try and reach the pinnacle of your life.

However, apart from a few people who tried the lottery, everyone else turned their attention to a building that appeared in the Myriad Realms Mall.

Because an auction is about to be held inside this building.

There will definitely be many valuable items at the auction.

If they spend value points now, and then suddenly find they don't have enough when they want to auction off some items, then they'll be in big trouble.

"Welcome everyone to this martial arts-related item auction. I'm sure you've all been waiting quite eagerly, so let's begin the auction now."

As everyone entered the pavilion, Lü Buwei appeared on a floating platform in the center of the pavilion, a faint smile on his face, and began to speak eloquently.

"This is a crystallization of the peak Grandmaster realm cultivation. Once you absorb this crystal, you can instantly gain the cultivation of the peak Grandmaster realm."

"At the same time, you will also learn the martial arts cultivated by this Grandmaster-level expert, the Tathagata Palm, a Grandmaster-level martial art."

Starting bid: 15 value points, with each bid not less than 1 value points.

"If you win this auction, you will instantly become a master who has cultivated the Tathagata Palm technique to the peak of the Grandmaster realm, and may even have the opportunity to break through to the Grandmaster level on your own..."

Lü Buwei was adept at social maneuvering, and his voice was full of seductive charm.

"16 million value points".

"17 million value points".

···

"20 million value points".

Prices skyrocketed in an instant, and customers could no longer contain themselves.

"It's finally harvest time!"

Chapter 41 Unapproachable! Unapproachable! [Seeking flowers and votes!]

Myriad Realms Mall.

"21 million value points".

Without any pause, the price was driven up again during the auction.

The Tathagata Palm is a grandmaster-level martial art, worth 10 value points.

Furthermore, given that he possesses the cultivation level of a Grandmaster at its peak, he might be able to rival the strength of an ordinary martial arts Grandmaster.

Therefore, 20 value points is a very ordinary price in the eyes of bidders.

"I···"

However, many more customers were stunned, sitting there blankly.

Let alone 200,000 value points, even the starting bid of 150,000 value points is completely beyond the affordability of more than 90% of the customers in the Myriad Realms Mall.

"This is the first item auctioned in the Myriad Realms Mall. The starting price is 150,000 value points. I only have a little over 5,000 value points, which is less than a fraction of what I have."

"Well, I originally thought I had 10,000 value points, so maybe I could auction off a treasure. Unfortunately, the harsh reality tells me that I'm really poor."

"Auctions are indeed a high-end game for the rich. We should buy discounted items and participate in the lucky draw."

"Sigh~ I'll just quietly watch the rich people show off!"

······

Almost simultaneously, all the ordinary customers were already fully aware of the situation; they were probably just spectators cheering "666" at this auction.

"25 million value points".

Just then, a hoarse voice rang out, and the auction price was immediately increased by 4 value points.

"Who is this?"
