Transmigrating over ten thousand years late, I was forced to become a mighty presence

Chapter 142: Chapter 66 Rongcheng’s Fine Jade Grotto Heavensi

The Elder of Mount Laojun, Yen Xiao, stood inside a suite on the third floor, curiously observing the young man standing before him, clad in white and striking an extraordinary figure.

Just a while ago, service staff of the trading meeting had approached him with a ring at hand, claiming that a guest wished to meet him.

At first, Yen Xiao didn’t pay much attention. As the manager of this trading meeting and also the inner door elder of Mount Laojun, there were countless people who wanted to establish relations with him through this trading meeting, most of whom he had no interest in entertaining.

However, when he was about to refuse, he noticed the Space Inscription on the white jade ring.

Yen Xiao hastily took the ring, confirming that it was indeed a precious storage magic artifact, which immediately piqued his interest.

Upon entering the reception hall, Shen Yuan requested for a detailed discussion in the third-floor suite.

Yen Xiao politely stated that although a storage ring was precious, it might not be sufficient to gain entrance to the suites on the third floor merely as an auction item.

But then, Shen Yuan produced more than ten identical storage rings, utterly astonishing Yen Xiao.

In this way, Shen Yuan easily got Xue Mingzhi into the suite on the third floor.

Pushing aside his turbulent thoughts, Yen Xiao respectfully addressed Shen Yuan:

“Mr. Shen, this is the last available room on the third floor. It not only offers the best view for the auction but is also equipped with a projection device that allows you to clearly see the public transactions in the hall.

If you have any transaction requirements with other guests, you can call the service staff at any time to provide transaction assistance.”

Shen Yuan glanced at the projection device at the floor-to-ceiling windows and couldn’t help but quirk his eyebrows: “Is this an electronic device?”

In this antique room, the projection device was conspicuously a giant projector.

Yen Xiao gave Shen Yuan an apologetic smile:

“Currently, as the Spirit Energy Tidal Surge has just returned, the yield of spirit stones is scarce. If we were to use a projection formation, it would be too expensive and cost-ineffective, and hence, we have to make do with a device to substitute it.”.

Shen Yuan was amazed by this, but he did not bear any bias.

Bai Xue was still glued to the massive window looking at the scene below with rapt attention, while Xue Mingzhi next to her maintained a stunned expression as if he still hadn’t recovered from the shock earlier.

Ignoring the two, Shen Yuan placed thirteen storage rings on the table and asked Yen Xiao:

“I can provide these storage rings to you. Whether it is for auction, or for your Mount Laojun sect to buy, I can accept either.”

These thirteen storage rings were all made by Shen Yuan while studying the art of Artifact Refining, using the remaining two white jade stone boxes.

Although the white jade stone box was made of an unknown material, the storage rings made from it had a space much larger than that of red sandalwood from Yunfu. Along with the few storage rings he had reserved, most of the finished products were here.

Shen Yuan was prepared to trade all the storage rings in his hands to participate in the auction for Qi of heaven and earth after learning that this place had it.

Yen Xiao pondered, and then seriously said:

“At present, we do not have the ability to mine Void Mines, and existing storage rings within the Cultivation World are scarce and their value is difficult to estimate.

Moreover, as the Spirit Energy Tidal Surge has just arrived, the yield of spirit stone mines is scarce and difficult to mine. Therefore, valuing them only in terms of spirit stone prices would be unstable.

We from Mount Laojun will auction a storage ring, and buy the remaining twelve storage rings from Mr. Shen at the auction price. What do you think Mr. Shen?”

Yen Xiao’s reply surprised Shen Yuan.

To auction a single storage ring undeniably skyrocketed the price of the storage rings, and the fact that Mount Laojun was willing to buy all the other storage rings at such a high price showed high sincerity.

“May I ask, what is the use of so many storage rings for your Mount Laojun?”

Shen Yuan asked curiously.

Yen Xiao gave a casual smile: “Of course, after all, this is not a secret.”

“Currently, as the Spirit Energy Tidal Surge has just returned, many powerful individuals are restricted by Spirit Energy and laws of heaven and earth, and can only hide in grotto heavens sacred grounds, unable to emerge into the world.

In truth, not only the powerful individuals, but many precious spirit treasures and curiosities are also restrained by the laws of heaven and earth and cannot remain in the world for long.”

“Most spirit treasures above the level of magical treasures can only be stored in grotto heavens sacred grounds. If one wants to bring them into the world, they would need the help of a storage ring.”

“Not only treasures like spirit treasures, but also ritual altars and formation flags needed for casting secret techniques. Any item above the third rank will be suppressed to some extent in the present world.”

“Therefore, storage artifacts are particularly important and even have certain strategic significance to some extent.”

“Mount Laojun also stores some Void Mines in its sacred lands, but not only are they scarce, it is also difficult to create a storage ring as big as the ones Mr. Shen has. Mr. Shen’s storage rings are close to the level of magical treasures in terms of space size and stability. This is a key reason why we from Mount Laojun are willing to buy them at a high price.”

Pausing slightly, a thoughtful expression flashed across his face, before Yen Xiao continued:

“There’s also another reason. A few thousand years ago, an ancestor from our Mount Laojun delivered an order for all disciples of every generation to collect some special storage artifacts.”

“Going by the size of your storage artifacts, Mr. Shen, the Space Inscription isn’t complex, but the fact that it can expand to such a large space suggests that you’ve reached the pinnacle of Artifact Refining. Therefore, we’d like to buy them and submit one to the ancestral hall of our sect.”
