Longevity: Start From The Entry Of Luck

Chapter 126: The Surging Power of Luck, Meeting the Upgrade Conditions!

Soon, he arrived at a small courtyard with Jiang Yuan.

There were mountains, water, and trees. Although the area was not large, the layout and design were well-arranged.

"Senior Jiang, this is the best courtyard in the area. Please bear with it," he said apologetically.

Jiang Yuan waved his hand, "It's alright! I am satisfied with this courtyard."

He then took out a spirit stone and threw it to him.

The man was overjoyed and said, "Thank you for your reward, Senior Jiang! If you have any other needs, just call me. My name is Dong Quan. I have a good understanding of most things in Yunxiao City! I won't disturb you any longer!"

After saying these words, he respectfully left, closing the door for Jiang Yuan before he left.

Shu Xiaoxiao said at this time, "Young Master, I will go and tidy up your bedroom now!"

A moment later, just as Jiang Yuan was about to continue contemplating the star chart of the Zhou Tian, there was a knocking sound at the courtyard door.

Jiang Yuan scanned with his divine sense and saw the face of the person outside the door. He was immediately surprised because this person had no impression in his mind.

The man outside the courtyard door had a faint smile on his lips and said, "Junior Brother Jiang, it's not very polite to pry into others' privacy!"

Jiang Yuan said, "Senior Brother, please come in!"

Creak!

The courtyard door was pushed open.

A man in his thirties stepped over the threshold.

With sword-like eyebrows and starry eyes, he had an imposing appearance.

After seeing Jiang Yuan, he immediately clasped his fists and said, "I am Kou Dong. I have heard of Junior Brother Jiang's achievements before and was filled with admiration. Today, I came to visit without permission!"

Upon hearing the name Kou Dong, Jiang Yuan was instantly surprised.

Because he had seen this person on the Heavenly Rankings before.

With a cultivation at the Fourth Level of the Spirit Sea Realm, he ranked seventy-third on the Heavenly Rankings.

Jiang Yuan clasped his hands and said, "So it's Senior Brother from Qingxi Peak. Please have a seat!"

The two of them then sat in the pavilion.

"I wonder what brings Senior Brother Kou here today?" Jiang Yuan poured him a cup of hot tea.

Kou Dong smiled and said, "Just out of curiosity, I wanted to see what the legendary figure who defeated Liang Qiu across realms looks like! Now that I see you, it's truly well-deserved. My intuition tells me that you are not a sheep in front of me, but a tiger of the same level!"

After saying this, a hint of astonishment flashed in his eyes.

He had a unique talent that allowed him to sense the strength of the opponent.

Today, when he saw Jiang Yuan, his muscles couldn't help but tense up.

This meant that, under his instinctive prompting, Jiang Yuan posed a considerable threat to him.

He felt incredulous.

It should be noted that Jiang Yuan had not yet broken through to the Spirit Sea Realm, but he already posed a significant threat to him in his instinctive perception.

This meant that Jiang Yuan's actual combat power was extremely exaggerated.

Jiang Yuan also glanced at his panel at this time.

He immediately saw the Innate Luck that gave him such intuition.

[Extraordinary Perception (Blue)]: Able to sense any species' threat to oneself in the depths of one's mind and occasionally predict the arrival of a deadly crisis.

Seeing his Innate Luck, Jiang Yuan knew that what he said was not false.

Kou Dong looked at Jiang Yuan and sighed, "I originally thought the rumors about you were exaggerated by my junior brothers. Now I know that the news they spread was too conservative!"

"Junior Brother Jiang's strength is not as simple as they say. Even I don't have absolute confidence in winning against Junior Brother Jiang!"

Jiang Yuan smiled, "Senior Brother overpraises me. Senior Brother is ranked seventy-third on the Heavenly Rankings, while I am nowhere near your level!"

Kou Dong shook his head, "That's just an ordinary ranking list that doesn't prove much. Many people's actual strength far exceeds their ranking. Realm does not represent true combat power! If you want to change the rankings, you have to personally defeat the geniuses ranked ahead of you."

"But there aren't many opportunities for the elites of various forces to fight each other, unless those martial fanatics who challenge others everywhere. Their rankings have a stronger representativeness."

"My ranking is just due to good luck, defeating a genius from the Wan Beast Sect."

Jiang Yuan smiled slightly and said, "Senior Brother is being modest! I can feel that Senior Brother's true strength is not limited to being ranked seventy-three."

After reading all of Kou Dong's Innate Luck, Jiang Yuan knew.

This Senior Brother is good at hiding his true abilities.

He is not just at the Spirit Sea Realm Fourth Stage, he has already broken through to the Spirit Sea Realm Fifth Stage.

Moreover, some of his Innate Luck focuses on combat power.

Although he doesn't possess a purple-level Innate Luck, he cannot be underestimated.

After a friendly exchange, Kou Dong took his leave.

After leaving Jiang Yuan's small courtyard, he pondered for a while.

He then contacted his own master, realizing that Jiang Yuan's talent was worth paying attention to and that he should establish a good relationship with him instead of making enemies.

He had been stationed in Yunxiao City for a long time. Previously, he had received a message from his master, instructing him to use his innate talent to meet Jiang Yuan and see if he was worth investing in.

Originally, he planned to return to his sect in a while to meet Jiang Yuan and assess his true abilities.

Unexpectedly, he heard about Jiang Yuan's arrival today.

Hence, the reason for his visit.

Soon, five days passed.

Jiang Yuan finished washing up under Shu Xiaoxiao's care, then casually absorbed the Luck power that Shu Xiaoxiao had just gathered.

He glanced at his own panel.

[Name]: Jiang Yuan

[Realm]: Meridian Opening Realm Tenth Stage

[Innate Luck]: Ancient Dual Pupils (Gold), Boundless Longevity (Purple), Imperial Bloodline (Purple), Unparalleled Wisdom (Purple), Dragon and Tiger Body (Blue), Soul Condensation (Blue), Divine Marksman (Blue)

[Luck Power]: 1622 strands

[Luck Seeds]: None

He only needed three hundred and seventy-eight strands more to upgrade another blue-level Innate Luck.

This grand auction should not be difficult!

Jiang Yuan thought to himself.

"Master, I'm ready!" Shu Xiaoxiao wiped her hands clean of water stains and said.

Jiang Yuan nodded and said, "Let's go!"

Shu Xiaoxiao followed closely behind as they left the small courtyard.

After stepping out of the courtyard, they saw Dong Quan, the outer disciple who had welcomed Jiang Yuan that day, waiting for them.

"Senior Brother Jiang, do you need me to show you the way?"

"No need!" Jiang Yuan said calmly.

At this moment, Kou Dong walked over with a smile on his face and said, "Junior Brother Jiang, shall we go together?"

"Sure!" Jiang Yuan nodded.

Treasure Pavilion.

At this moment, the entrance was crowded with people. The auction list released by the Treasure Pavilion this time had an exceptionally high appeal.

Especially when everyone heard a piece of news that the auction items had been changed, and two Bodhi Fruits had been added to the auction list.

This made everyone even more enthusiastic about this auction.

No one would complain about having high comprehension.

In the path of cultivation, the importance of comprehension was self-evident.

So when they heard this news, even those who had not planned to participate in this auction came one after another.

There were even some powerful cultivators who, upon hearing this message, came directly in person.

Because most sects were too far away from Yunxiao City, it was impossible to catch up with the opening of this auction even if they rode on their Qing Falcons.

Jiang Yuan and Kou Dong just entered the Treasure Pavilion, and a maid came forward to greet them. It was the same maid who had served Jiang Yuan last time.

"Greetings, Master Jiang. This is your private room!"

She had been waiting here for a long time, just to give Jiang Yuan the sign representing private room number 18.

Kou Dong, who was standing beside them, was surprised and said, "Brother Jiang, you actually have the qualification for a private room. Impressive!"

Jiang Yuan smiled and said, "I consigned an item here."

Upon hearing this, Kou Dong was instantly shocked. He had attended countless auctions in Yunxiao City and was extremely familiar with the rules of the Treasure Pavilion.

Those who could enter a private room were not determined by their strength or status, but by their consumption or the huge profits they brought to the Treasure Pavilion. It was a symbol of wealth, not power.

Jiang Yuan having the qualification to enter a private room meant that the value of the item he consigned was worth at least a hundred thousand lower-grade spirit stones.

Understanding the reason behind this, Kou Dong felt extremely shocked. A hundred thousand lower-grade spirit stones represented a huge amount of cultivation resources.

With this amount of resources, Jiang Yuan's cultivation speed would naturally be much faster than ordinary cultivators. Coupled with his extraordinary talent and potential, his growth rate might be even more exaggerated than he had imagined!

After realizing this, Kou Dong's regard for Jiang Yuan increased even more. He clasped his hands and said, "Since Brother Jiang has a private room, let's part ways here and chat after the auction ends."

"Alright!" Jiang Yuan nodded slightly.

Then, he separated from Kou Dong and walked towards the private room with Shu Xiaoxiao.

The maid led the way respectfully in front, as Jiang Yuan was the target of her instructions. She had to make Jiang Yuan feel at home.

The auction venue was on the first floor, so the private rooms were on the second floor.

The maid led Jiang Yuan to the private room on the second floor.

At this moment, in the crowd, a woman who was exceptionally enchanting and charming saw Jiang Yuan's figure and showed a pensive expression.

This person was the Saintess of the Demonic Sect, Mu Qianru.

She was slightly surprised and thought to herself, "It's him! That little brother!"

Looking at Jiang Yuan slowly entering the private room, she licked her lips.

In her heart, she secretly thought that he was unexpectedly wealthy. It seemed that she had to capture him and let him support her. Being his plaything for a while wouldn't be a bad idea!

Her eyes flickered with a seductive light.

At this moment, there was no one within two zhang (approximately 6 meters) of her.

People were more wary of her than the geniuses in front of her. After all, Mu Qianru's cultivation path was too terrifying in terms of controlling desires.

Even if their cultivation level was higher than hers, facing her appearance and seductive techniques, not many people had the confidence to control their inner desires.

Once they fell into desire, they would become her servants, obedient to her every command.

Even the female cultivator from Tianjian Mountain, Ouyang Man, had fallen into an illusion in front of her Demonic Dance and performed a striptease in front of everyone's eyes.

If it weren't for Wang Yu's timely arrival, everything would have been lost.

Stripping naked in front of everyone's eyes was enough to make her Dao heart collapse.

But even so, the rumors about Ouyang Man had been spreading widely these days.

It was said that her Dao heart was now covered in dust and there was a danger of her falling into demonic cultivation.

With this demonstration, who would dare to approach her easily!

Especially those female cultivators, they were even more afraid of following in Ouyang Man's footsteps and avoided her like the plague.

On the other side.

Jiang Yuan entered private room number 18 and pushed open the window, seeing the figures of the people below.

At this moment, although the auction had not officially started yet.

But people had already arrived.

Seeing the figures below that emitted a golden aura, Jiang Yuan's heart was instantly filled with excitement.

This trip was not in vain.

As his thoughts moved, the invisible power of Luck that no one could see poured into his body.

He saw his Luck power rapidly increase.

In an instant, it broke through the threshold of 2000 strands, and then the jumping numbers slowly came to a stop.

The golden aura that originally gathered around those exceptional individuals below also disappeared.

But the dissipation of this Luck power would not have any effect on them.

This was just the accompanying power that a person with great Luck accumulated every day, endless and inexhaustible.

Jiang Yuan glanced at them again, with the strongest one ranking twenty-ninth on the Heavenly Rankings, only possessing a purple Innate Luck.

As for Wang Yu, he did not appear here.

At this time, Jiang Yuan's panel also changed.

[Name]: Jiang Yuan

[Realm]: Meridian Opening Realm Tenth Layer

[Innate Luck]: Ancient Dual Pupils (Gold), Boundless Longevity (Purple), Emperor's Bloodline (Purple), Peerless Wisdom (Purple), Dragon and Tiger Physique (Blue, upgradeable), Soul Condensation (Blue, upgradeable), Divine Marksman (Blue, upgradeable)

[Luck Power]: 2088 strands

Seeing the three words "upgradeable," he felt a bit excited.

But when he saw the auction about to begin, he slowly suppressed the excitement in his heart.

No rush!

Currently, the most crucial thing is to break through to the Spirit Sea Realm and obtain the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Objects needed.

The upgrade of Innate Luck can wait. It would be the same after returning to the residence of the Tai Xuan Sect.

The environment here is too noisy and not suitable for the upgrade of Innate Luck.

Then, Jiang Yuan slowly took his seat and looked down, waiting quietly for the auction to begin.

After about half an hour.

The doors of the Treasure Pavilion slowly closed, and everyone took their seats. The private rooms on the second floor were also fully occupied.

During this process, Jiang Yuan once again discovered a genius with purple Luck. His Luck power also reached 2119 strands.

Dong dong dong!

A knocking sound came to Jiang Yuan's ears.

Shu Xiaoxiao glanced at Jiang Yuan and said, "Please come in!"

A maid pushed open the door and walked briskly to Jiang Yuan, respectfully handing him a crystal screen about ten inches long and four inches wide.

"Young Master Jiang, this is the item you will use to bid later. You just need to input the price you want to bid on it. No one will know who is bidding, which can protect the safety of all guests and prevent someone from ambushing halfway after knowing the valuable item!"

Jiang Yuan nodded slightly.

"Not bad, it's well thought out. This is indeed a good method!"

Then he took the crystal screen from her hand.

She also respectfully exited Jiang Yuan's private room and closed the door.

Looking at the crystal screen in his hand, the worry in Jiang Yuan's heart also dissipated.

Originally, he was worried that after he bid for the Yin Yang Mysterious Jade, he would definitely attract the attention of others. With his current limited strength and not yet breaking through to the Spirit Sea Realm, it might cause some trouble to face the attention of those exceptional individuals.

Now it seemed that this worry was unnecessary.
