Chapter 96: 96: Heaven's Impact

Cai Ping sold quite a few items as the dusty old book traveled from one person's arm to another's. Slowly, more than an hour had passed. Alex realized while he had probably earned the most from this auction in general if he counted individual prices, his pills came nowhere close.

The latest items were being sold at 5 True spirit stones at starting bids alone. By the end, most of them crossed 10 true spirit stones.

Cai Ping showed off the third to the last item for the auction today. She unfurled the cloth to reveal that it was a pill bottle.

"This pill is a Soul Reuniting pill, that was made by Hong Wu Sect's sect leader, Ma Rong. In case you do not know, the Soul reuniting pill is a True grade pill that can increase your chances of breakthroughs in the True realm by at least 3 fold at Mortal grade.

"At earth grade, it can increase your chances by at least 10 fold. "

"And at heaven grade, it can pretty much guarantee your success at breakthrough."

"This pill on my hand has a harmony of 48%. That means, whoever gets this pill, is guaranteed to move forward in their journey as a cultivator. For the starting bid, we will start with 20 True spirit stones, with a minimum increase of 10 common spirit stones. "

The crowd started speaking so loudly that Cai Ping didn't even manage to comprehend what the first few bids were.

"21 Spi…."

"21 spi…"

"22 spi.."

Someone would be half finished with their bids before the other one started. Alex on the other hand was just stunned at the harmony of the pill.

He turned around and said, "Master, You are more talented than me. You made a 48% harmony true grade pill."

"It's not talent. It's experience. Once you get enough experience, you will be able to do that as well." She said.

Alex simply nodded and turned around to look at the people climb over each other to bid for the pill. He finally saw how much people cared about their cultivation and how far they would go to increase it.

'Do people really have a lot of trouble for a breakthrough?' he wondered. He himself had never cared for it, as he always had a 100% chance of breaking through. In fact, he had to slow down, cause he was too good at it.

His master's pill was still being bid, and it didn't seem like it was going to stop anytime soon.

KNOCK KNOCK

The staff lady inside opened the door to let more of the staff in. Another lady appeared with a book on a tray. "Here you go, sect leader Ma," the girl spoke respectfully.

The dusty old book had finally arrived at the VVIP rooms. Ma Rong picked up the book and started reading it. At first, she had hoped to understand just a few sentences to see what the book was called and what it could do, but to her surprise, she couldn't even read a word of it.

The language was just too foreign for her. She flipped through the entire book, which was filled with words, to see if there was anything she could read. On the last page, she finally found something she could read, only to be disappointed by the fact that it was the family's message saying that it was their heirloom.

A minute had passed, so she gave back the book to the staff, who bowed and swiftly left the room.

She sighed and turned back to see how the auction for the pill was going. Suddenly, she saw Alex who was concentrating on something. He wasn't looking at the auction, that was for sure.

"Yu Ming? What's wrong? You seem serious." She asked.

Alex got out of his stupor and smiled as he said, "Oh, it's nothing master. I was just surprised that one could even use spiritual sense to attack other people. That was truly eye-opening."

"Use spiritual sense to attack other people? What do you mean? There is no way anyone can do that." Ma Rong said, wondering just where he got such an absurd idea from.

"Huh? But that's what Heaven's Impact does, right?" he said.

"Heaven's Impact? What's that?" she had never heard of such a thing. This just brought more confusion to Alex's face.

Alex smiled a little and said, "What are you talking about master? It's obviously the book we read just now."

"The book?" Ma Rong got confused for a split second before her eyes started opening wide. "Did you read the book just now?"

"Oh, was I not supposed to? I'm sorry. I only read the introduction page though, so I didn't really read it all." He said.

Ma Rong was shocked. "You read it. You can read that book?" she practically shouted at this point. Thankfully, the room was entirely soundproof other than when one was bidding.

"Of course I can, master. Can't you?" Alex was surprised now.

"No! Didn't you hear what the auctioneer said? No one can read the book?" she said.

"I mean, isn't that how all higher grade books are, master? Even you said it took you about 2 months to read the immortal technique. Maybe, the family members weren't as talented, so they took forever to read it."

Ma Rong was stupefied. Her disciple had completely misunderstood the difficulty of the situation here and done something seemingly impossible in her eyes.

"Yu Ming, Can you read that book?" she asked once more.

"Yes," Alex answered seriously, hearing the tone in her voice.

"Then you can read that language?" she asked.

"Language? What language?" he asked.

"Obviously the language the book was written in," Ma Rong started to get angry now.

Alex was surprised. "That book was written in a language? Aren't those just scribbled lines that are supposed to put information into your brain?" he asked.

"Of course not. Those are words you are meant to read and comprehend. That's how you learn a technique in the first place."

Alex was stunned. He quickly took out the Flickering Shadows book he had with him and showed it to his master. "Master, are you telling me these lines are a language too? And that you can understand them?"

Ma Rong was even more stunned as she said, "Of course that's a language. Are you telling me you learned the book without knowing the language?"
