Battle Through the Heavens: Attribute Draw, Top-Tier Comprehension at the Start

The welcoming girl stepped forward, naturally because she saw the cyan-gold card in Qin Yu's hand.

Although this type of card is not considered one of the most prestigious VIP cards at the auction house, it is still unaffordable for most people without substantial wealth.

"I heard there's a trade fair today?"

This card was naturally found by Qin Yu from the Jia Lie family's "inheritance".

"Yes, the trade fair is in the main hall on the first floor. Please follow me."

The girl led the two into the main hall on the first floor and gave them a brief introduction to the trade fair.

The trade fair, organized by Mittel Auction House, was large in scale but also well-organized.

Qin Yu and Little Fairy Doctor split up and began searching for valuable items at the trade fair.

"Hey, tomorrow's the big auction that happens every three months, what do you think they're doing holding this trade fair today?"

While strolling around, a casual remark from a passerby caught Qin Yu's attention.

A large-scale auction?

Will there be anything I need?

After wandering around the trade fair for a while, Qin Yu didn't find anything he liked. On the contrary, Little Fairy Doctor found a few relatively rare medicinal herbs.

"Hello, I'd like to know about tomorrow's auction."

Qin Yu found a deacon from the Mittel family and casually handed him his card.

The deacon took the card, examined both sides, his gaze flickered slightly, and he quickly returned the card with both hands.

"Sir, tomorrow's event is our Mittel Auction House's major auction, which takes place every three months."

"Given your VIP status, all we can provide is a partial list of the auction items. I will fetch it for you if needed."

"No problem, let me take a look."

Qin Yu was not surprised by this.

Given the status of the Galley family, he didn't expect this card to bring him much convenience; he would be happy with even the slightest benefit.

Besides, the items that are auctioned off as the finale in such a place are things I can't possibly keep with my limited resources, so there's no point in even looking at them.

Before long, the steward returned with a neatly bound booklet and handed it to Qin Yu.

"This is a partial list of items to be auctioned tomorrow. Please take a look."

Qin Yu opened the booklet and scanned it line by line.

Intermediate-level Xuan-rank cultivation technique, Grade 3 elixirs, demonic beast blood essence, rare ores...

Little Fairy Doctor also came over, her gaze sweeping over the starting prices of the auction items before she silently withdrew her chin and looked away.

When Qin Yu turned to the middle of the booklet, his gaze stopped.

"Qingmu Xuanling Pill, a fourth-grade pill, is mild in nature and can heal internal injuries and nourish the meridians. It is especially effective for cultivating wood-attribute battle qi."

"This pill was made by Master Otto of the Blackrock City Alchemist Guild, and its quality is assessed as Grade 4, Upper Rank."

Um...

I wonder if this Master Otto's surname is as difficult to pronounce as that of a certain bishop who is only considered a good person when he is dead?

Qin Yu closed the booklet, feeling that today's trip had not been in vain.

As expected of the capital city, even fourth-grade pills are not considered the highlight of this auction.

"Qin Yu, is this pill...?"

Little Fairy Doctor seemed to have seen through Qin Yu's thoughts and tentatively asked a question.

"Don't worry, this isn't just to help you solve problems in the future, it's also to improve myself."

Qin Yu gently ruffled Little Fairy Doctor's hair, his thoughts stirring once more.

Currently, his cultivation is still based on earth, and other elemental battle qi is obtained through evolution and cannot stay in his meridians for long.

If he can truly develop his own wood-attribute power through the methods he envisions, then why not fire, water, metal, or even other attributes?

He was determined to obtain this Azure Wood Profound Spirit Pill.

"Tomorrow's auction..."

"Don't worry, just bring this booklet tomorrow and someone will arrange a seat for you."

Before Qin Yu could even formally inquire, the steward understood his meaning and immediately expressed his opinion.

"it is good."

The auction proceeded as scheduled the following day, and the auction hall on the second floor of the Mittel auction house was packed to capacity.

Rows of seats were arranged in a fan shape, extending from the foot of the auction stage all the way to the back pillars.

Thanks to his VIP card, Qin Yu was seated near the center. Although it wasn't a private room, it was still quite comfortable.

"Tsk, the smell of money."

Little Fairy Doctor leaned back on the soft sofa, ate a piece of cut fruit, and couldn't help but sigh.

From Qingshan Town to Black Rock City, and then to the capital, she witnessed firsthand how the wealthy could spend their money on all sorts of bizarre and wonderful things.

"Hmm, the wicked yet alluring stench of money."

Just as the two were chatting, a series of footsteps suddenly came from the entrance of the hall. The rhythm was neat and the steps were heavy.

Qin Yu turned around and saw an old man walking in through the main gate with his head held high, followed by two middle-aged men with slightly arrogant expressions.

The old man was dressed in a brocade robe with a silver token embroidered with cloud patterns on his chest, clearly a member of the Yunlan Sect.

"It's Elder Yunling! Come on in!"

Teng Shan, the patriarch of the Mittel family, took the initiative to walk over and led Yun Leng to a private room on the third floor.

"This guy is Yunling."

Qin Yu only looked away after Yun Ling's figure disappeared around the corner of the stairs.

This is Yun Leng, the Grand Elder of the Yunlan Sect, who outwardly obeyed Yun Yun's orders but inwardly defied them, ultimately receiving the Buddha's wrathful lotus in his face and being killed on the spot by Xiao Yan.

The fact that he came suggests that the final item in this auction must be quite something.

After all, Yun Ling is still the undisputed Grand Elder of the Yunlan Sect, and his influence in the Jia Ma Empire is at its highest level.

Little Fairy Doctor was also drawn to Qin Yu's gaze. She glanced back at Yun Leng and then spoke:

"Who is that old man?"

"Yun Ling, the Grand Elder of the Yunlan Sect."

"...No wonder, even a crab that walks sideways doesn't have his imposing presence."

Yunlan Sect, the most powerful sect in the empire.

The previous sect leader was a peak Dou Huang powerhouse, and the current sect leader is not only a Dou Huang but also an unparalleled beauty.

Little Fairy Doctor had heard these things many times before.

"Hmm, judging from his aura, he must be at least a fifth-tier giant crab."

Little Fairy Doctor was almost made to burst out laughing by Qin Yu's words. She quickly covered her mouth with her hand, but her shoulders were still shaking.

Subsequently, members of the Mu and Nalan families also arrived one after another.

However, among the people from the Nalan family, our beloved Sister Regret, Nalan Yanran, was not among them.

The auction began quickly. Several Xuan-level cultivation techniques were offered right at the start, and the bidding was intense, quickly heating up the atmosphere.

Qin Yu didn't raise his sign; he simply leaned back in his chair, quietly waiting for his target.

It wasn't until the tenth item was brought out that the host opened the lid of the jade box.

A pill, entirely emerald green with faint golden markings, gleamed with a warm, ethereal glow under the light.

"A high-grade fourth-rank pill, the Azure Wood Profound Spirit Pill! It can not only heal internal injuries and nourish the meridians, but it is also of great use to cultivators with the wood attribute."

"Starting bid: 500,000 gold coins; minimum increment: 10,000 gold coins! Please place your bids!"
