Wang Ming used his Soul Eyes, and his pupils constricted when he saw the description of the flas.
[Heaven nding Flas]
[Type: Growth-Type Utility Weapon, Weapon]
[Current Rank: Immortal]
[Grade: Spirit]
[Description: The other half of the most powerful flas in the universe. During the ancient era, the fla was split into two parts: the Heaven Rendering Fla and the Purgatory Fla. Unlike its counterpart, which is known for having the greatest offensive capabilities, this fla possesses the strongest defensive capabilities. The fla surrounds the user, and while active, it absorbs most damage, leaving the user unhard. The user can also use the flas to heal allies from the most fatal injuries, and pills refined with this fla carry an additional healing effect, while artifacts gain increased durability. The user must have a physique that is highly resistant to flas, or the user will be burned to ashes instantly.]
'What on earth is going on with this continent? Shouldn't such heaven-defying things be available in higher worlds, like those the system ntioned, similar to cultivation novels?' Wang Ming thought in bewildernt as he looked at the fla floating on the stage.
Honestly, the things he had encountered since arriving in the cultivation world were things a normal protagonist, following a linear plot, should encounter one at a ti as they traveled to stronger places. Yet he had encountered so many of them in the Black Bamboo Kingdom alone. If soone or sothing was manipulating fate, he would eat shit.
"Sigh, I shouldn't worry about these things and should just focus on getting stronger," Wang Ming mumbled.
Suddenly, a thought struck him as he rembered sothing, and he sat up straight. "Purgatory Fla… doesn't this na seem familiar?"
Wang Ming pondered as he saw the na of the other half of the fla and commanded, "System, open the shop."
< Cultivation Shop Level: 2 (Note: Break through to the Soul Formation Realm to upgrade the shop and unlock new items) >
< Current Dual Cultivation Points: 0 >
< Current debt: zero >
Wang Ming browsed the shop, and all sorts of alchemic flas appeared in his view. He continued browsing until his eyes landed on the fla he was looking for.
[Purgatory Flas]
[Type: Growth-Type Utility, Weapon]
[Current Rank: Heaven]
[Grade: Spirit]
[Description: One of the few Spirit Fires which has similar traits to Spirit Weapons, growing along with the user if the conditions are t. The Purgatory Flas devour other Spirit Fires to beco stronger, and the higher the grade and number of Spirit Fires it devours, the faster and greater the improvent. The Purgatory Flas can also be used for blacksmithing and lting ores. This Spirit Fire is one of the most lethal Spirit Fires in existence, ford in the hottest place under the heavens, and if the host has affinity toward fire laws, they can infuse the laws with the Purgatory Flas, which can even burn souls, taking away the chance of reincarnation from the target.]
[Cost: 20 million Dual Cultivation Points]
"System, why do you have the other half of the fla with you? Did you know that I would encounter this fla today?" Wang Ming asked in a suspicious tone, but he clicked his tongue when he got no reply from the system.
"Immortal Rank—what idiot would auction this? If it were , I would have kept it for myself," Tang Ning said, and many in the audience had the sa question.
At that mont, soone asked the question on everyone's mind. "Lady Ruoxi, which person put this fla up for auction?"
Snap.
Everyone's eyes turned toward Jiang Ruoxi. She had a calm expression and replied, "No one. It was the Jiang Family itself that put the fla up for auction."
As soon as she said this, a murmur erupted in the crowd as they wondered about the motive behind auctioning an Immortal Rank item—sothing even the Royal Family should not possess. They knew the Jiang Family were no idiots, so there had to be a reason.
"I know many of you are suspicious, but the reason the Jiang Family auctioned it is that since the ti we found this fla years ago in a secret realm, no one has been able to even touch it. Those who tried were reduced to cinders, and many of them were at the Golden Core Realm. So I warn you: if you want to bid for it, make sure you are ready for the danger," Jiang Ruoxi said in a solemn voice, and many who had been casting covetous glances now hesitated.
"Also, if anyone has doubts, they can co test my claim. I am allowing soone to co forward and test it if they want, and if they succeed, they can have it for free—but only one person," Jiang Ruoxi invited with a malicious grin.
On the continent, there existed a few rare Heaven Rank alchemic flas. These might be sparks carried by teors or deep-seated flas of volcanoes forged over thousands of years, and they were extrely scarce, possessed by only a handful of people and spread among various kingdoms.
They were also the dream of every alchemist. Obtaining such a fla would significantly impact their pill-making process, improving quality and enabling the crafting of higher-level pills.
Many alchemists spent their entire lives searching for such higher-ranked flas, and if the fla also had combat ability, normal cultivators would seek them out as well—often without success. But now a higher-ranked fla was before them, yet many were helpless as they did not want to die. Still, there were a few bold ones willing to take the risk.
"Lady Ruoxi, I would like to take the challenge," an old man jumped onto the stage from the non-VVIP section.
"Go ahead," Jiang Ruoxi said as she made way, and the old man confidently stepped forward.
The old man was nervous but gritted his teeth, knowing he would miss this chance otherwise. As an alchemist, he knew how valuable it was, and being poor, he could never compete with others, so he took the risk.
As soon as he touched the fla, he felt a warm sensation, like basking in the sun. He waited for a few seconds, and nothing happened. He broke out in laughter.
"Hahahaha!"
Seeing that nothing had happened to him, the crowd broke out in an uproar.
"Damn, what a lucky guy!"
"If I knew this would happen, I would have taken the chance!"
Everyone looked enviously at the old man who was laughing madly, but only a few people showed no sign of panic or surprise and realized the show was not over yet. In the next second—
Woosh!
A fierce fla erupted from the small fire and enveloped the old man like a dragon breathing fire, and before he could even react, he was burned to ashes.
