The sudden explosion of the anomaly took Yang Zhen by surprise. The air seemed to be enshrouded with a dense flood of elemental energy. Wafts of mysterious breath were coming at him, imbued with a sweet and intoxicating essence, as refreshing as orchids.

Yang Zhen’s eyes lit up, looking past the gazes of the crowd and focusing on a lollipop-like object at the center. That must be the legendary Realm Treasure.

He hadn’t expected the Realm Treasure to look like this, leaving him somewhat disappointed. Nevertheless, the terrifying wave of elemental energy emitted from the lollipop-like object suggested that this Realm Treasure was anything but ordinary.

While a practitioner beside him was dazed, Yang Zhen sneakily snatched a straw hat from him. He then maneuvered through the throng, ignoring the disgruntled protestations. Once the people sensed the nine-fold Foundation Establishment aura radiating from his body, they stopped complaining.

It wasn’t until Yang Zhen had wedged himself between powerful figures at the peak of Foundation Establishment that anyone dared to glare at him.

Ignoring the person, Yang Zhen decided not to push forward for fear of being discovered by those at the Golden Core Stage.

Upon the maturation of the Realm Treasure, a phenomenon had appeared. However, Yang Zhen spotted around a dozen powerful figures at the Golden Core Stage. If they did not decide on the ownership soon, more Golden Core practitioners would arrive, leaving perhaps nothing for him.

“Gentlemen!”

At that moment, a clear voice rang out. When everyone turned towards it, they were taken aback.

“It’s Luo Kun, a Golden Core practitioner from the Heartless Sect of Dajiang Country!”

“So what if he’s from Dajiang Country? This is the Nine Realms Exquisite Tower in our Nether Sun Country. The Realm Treasure belongs to us. How could we allow them to take it away?”

“Shh, do you have a death wish? That’s a Golden Core practitioner who can kill us with a single move.”

“What’s there to fear? Dajiang Country may have a Golden Core practitioner, and so does Water Spirit Country, but we have even more of them in Nether Sun Country. Worst comes to worst, we’ll just engage in a full-blown battle. The Realm Treasure has always been awarded to the destined.”

“Let’s wait and see. Practitioners from Nether Sun Country have never been cowards.”

Luo Kun looked at the bustling discussion among the practitioners, a smile playing upon his face. He shared a disdainful glance with Yuan Kong as they waited for the noise to subside before he continued.

“Gentlemen, the Realm Treasure has ripened now. Though it is intended for those who are destined, I’m afraid those with weaker abilities will hardly safeguard it. Therefore, I suggest…”

At this point, Luo Kun surveyed the crowd and his face twisted into a smirk.

“So, I suggest that Golden Core practitioners should bid without restraint. The highest bidder wins. As for those Golden Core practitioners who fail to obtain the Realm Treasure, the bidding crystals and treasures should be distributed equally among them. What do you think?”

The moment his words were out, all non-Golden Core practitioners in the crowd reacted with indignation, pointing at Luo Kun and asking, “On what grounds?”

“So what if they’re Golden Core practitioners? Why do we get nothing?”

“Luo Kun, don’t overstep your boundaries. Hundreds of us non-Golden Core practitioners are here. Should you push us too far, we won’t be afraid to put up a fight!”

With a cold chuckle, Luo Kun fixed his gaze on the speaker and let out a formidable wave of elemental energy, highlighting the powerful aura of a Golden Core practitioner. The complexions of all non-Golden Core practitioners changed instantly.

The Golden Core Stage represented a watershed and its immense power couldn’t be determined merely by the quantity of Minor Mahayana Phase practitioners. Though a hundred of them might eventually take down a Golden Core practitioner, many would die trying.

Besides, there were more than a dozen Golden Core practitioners in the vicinity. How could they stand by and watch the less powerful show off their might?

The Nine Realms Exquisite Tower was specifically for Golden Core practitioners. There had been no cases of non Golden Core practitioners obtaining any Realm Treasure in the past. Despite their grievance, the non-Golden Core practitioners were helpless.

The non-Golden Core practitioners were filled with rage but could do nothing. No one was willing to step forward and become the first casualty at the hands of a Golden Core practitioner.

Yuan Kong, with a smirk, stepped forward, “I think Brother Luo Kun’s suggestion is reasonable. After all, there are eight more Realm Treasures. We don’t need to fight over one. What do you think, gentlemen?”

Wan Yue cast the two men a significant gaze and nodded, “The Valley of Flowers agrees with this proposal!”

“Kun Shi Sect agrees with this proposal!”

“Agreed!”

“This proposal won’t damage relationships and will determine the ownership of the Realm Treasure. We agree!”

Within the crowd, Dong Lei of Changyue Tower, let out a cold huff, watching Luo Kun and Yuan Kong, and said, “These fools, can’t they see through their tricks?”

Lv Ping giggled and said, ‘Yuan Kong and the others plan to drain everyone’s crystals, before they jointly acquire a better Realm Treasure?”

Lan Fangyue furrowed his brows and asked, “But how will they know which world’s Realm Treasure is most valuable?”

Dong Lei scoffed, “That’s where they’re clever. They’ve surely colluded with many people to pool their crystals first. They’ll bid for the Realm Treasures once they appear and then distribute them. This way, they can control some naive, wealthy individuals to obtain the Realm Treasure and then secretly snatch it from them.”

Lan Fangyue drew in a sharp breath, expressing her surprise, “Are these people so shameless and despicable?”

Lu Ping chuckled lightly, patting Lan Fangyue’s shoulder. She then said meaningfully, “Once you’re overseas, you’ll understand what it means to be shameless and deceitful.”

Lan Fangyue paused, “Is it truly that dangerous overseas?”

Dong Lei grinned, “The world across the sea is far more dangerous than you can ever imagine. You’ll understand once you get there—only personal experience can lead to growth.”

Lan Fangyue nodded thoughtfully, “I wonder where Yang Zhen is now.”

Dong Lei and Lu Ping glanced at each other, then looked at Yuan Kong and his companions.

“30,000 crystal stones, is there anyone who is offering more?”

“Trying to buy a realm treasure with 30,000 crystal stones? I’ll offer 50,000!”

Upon hearing this, everyone sucked in a breath.

“It must be someone from the Kun Shi Sect. They truly have deep pockets.” “What deep pockets! As the man just said, trying to get a realm treasure for 30,000 crystal stones is a joke!”

The bidding went on. Yuan Kong was all smiles, looking at Luo Kun. They both nodded simultaneously.

“100,000! My Heartless Sect is offering 100,000 crystal stones. Any fellow cultivators can offer a higher price?”

Hiss!

Everyone drew in a sharp breath, none of them expected Luo Kun to start the bidding at 100,000 crystal stones.

“What… what is that, to be worth 100,000 crystal stones? Luo Kun doesn’t look like he’s a good guy. Is he purposely inflating the price?”

“He’s indeed shady. Depleting crystal stones now would render any interested party unable to afford other treasures.”

The crowd murmured. Luo Kun had exaggerated the price too much. No one had ever bought a realm treasure with 100,000 crystal stones before. It was clear that he had a sinister motive.

Everyone was criticizing Luo Kun, but he maintained a calm and indifferent expression.

“100,000? Go fool someone else! We don’t need this realm treasure anymore, it’s all yours!”

“Luo Kun, you might as well give up your scheme.”

“Right, we can see right through you! You’re just trying to drain our crystal stones.”

Luo Kun’s face changed slightly, it seemed a bit hectic, but he controlled himself and said with a forced smile, “If none of you want it, I might as well buy this realm treasure!”

Saying so, Luo Kun pointed one finger and a pile of crystal stones appeared on the ground, all purple high-grade stones, totalling exactly 100,000.

After all the Golden Core Stage practitioners had shared the crystal stones, they all coldly stared at Luo Kun, taking joy in his predicament.

“Haha, this Luo Kun is indeed an idiot. He raised the price so quickly that now he’s trapped himself.” Dong Lei chuckled.

But Lu Ping suddenly trembled, “No good, we all got fooled by him!”

“What?” Dong Lei’s face changed instantly.

“This realm treasure…” Lu Ping’s face went through several expressions, “This realm treasure, it looks like the legendary Creation Fruit!”

“Creation Fruit?” The surrounding crowd gasped.

If it was really the Creation Fruit, then even if it cost 200,000 or 300,000, everyone would buy it without hesitation.

At this point, Luo Kun had already walked to the Creation fruit and bent down to pick it.

The crowd looked furious, but there was nothing they could do.

Just when Luo Kun’s hand was about to reach the Creation Fruit, a loud voice suddenly came, “Hands off that lollipop!”
