The black-robed man’s words drew the attention of all the cultivators back to the auction.

However, none of the cultivators’ gazes left the private room that Zhou Yun was in.

They cupped their fists gratefully in the direction of Zhou Yun.

Enlightenment was not something that all cultivators could have. Some cultivators could not even have enlightenment for once in their entire lifetime!

This time, Zhou Yun’s enlightenment did not only allow him to transform his Setting Sun Sword Intent into the Fire Sword Intent, but it also benefited the surrounding cultivators with such a large-scale transformation!

It could be said that all the cultivators present had half of the enlightenment!

Therefore, all the cultivators present were grateful to this mysterious golden core grand cultivator!

“Now, even with just one finger, I can destroy the five spiritual corpses previously!” Zhou Yun’s finger moved slightly and a wisp of Fire Sword Intent gathered at the tip of his finger. It condensed and did not dissipate. With a light stroke, even the air was burned and deformed!

Now, Zhou Yun was even more looking forward to the soaring of his combat strength after he obtained the Fire Dragon Sword!

Therefore, Zhou Yun looked at Su Lingyun, but only to realize she was looking at him as if she had seen a ghost.

“Junior Brother Zhou Yun, you’re not just a disgusting genius. Even I’m starting to admire you. What kind of brain do you have? Are you taking enlightenment as drinking water, and enlighten as and when you wish?” Su Lingyun was jealous!

This was the first time she had such a feeling! When she was facing the other four sects, she had punched the Myriad Flower School, kicked the Cherishing Jade Sect, sent the Heavenly Star Institute flying with a sneeze, and frightened the Autumn Path School with a look!

However, she had never been so glorious back then!

Being able to comprehend the perfection of sword intent among thousands of cultivators, Zhou Yun would definitely become a legend when the news spread! Not only that, it was that kind that would not be forgotten!

“Tsk! I originally planned to pocket this Fire Dragon Sword and give you my spiritual sword. However, since you’ve comprehended the perfection of Fire Sword Intent, I can’t be so black-hearted,” Su Lingyun said with a look of pity.

Zhou Yun’s face turned black. He did not expect Su Lingyun to have such a thought. If he had not had the enlightenment, the Fire Dragon Sword that was specially prepared for him by Venerable Xunling would have been stolen.

“Alright, I’m afraid the people below are going to have a big fight with this auction!” Looking at the two bags of spiritual stones on the table, Su Lingyun gritted her teeth and searched all over her body for a long time before she took out another bag of spiritual stones.

“These guys won’t stop bidding just because of Venerable Xunling. They might even pawn everything they have to continue bidding for the top-notch spiritual weapon!” Su Lingyun said seriously.

Although Treasure Pavilion did not allow borrowing money at the last minute, they could use the treasures they have as collateral.

However, they would only buy them at half the market price!

Although many people hated this, they had no choice but to accept it!

After all, there were times when the treasures in an auction were too rare! For example, the Fire Dragon Sword!

Zhou Yun looked at Su Lingyun. He gritted his teeth and took out all his spiritual stones!

He had a total of 1,500 spiritual stones and a spiritual meal token!

He had earned 500 spiritual stones by selling wearily the perfect-tier pills that he emptied the wallets of several alchemy elders.

As for the 1,000 spiritual stones and the spiritual meal token, they were all given by the sect leader, Ling Qingyun.

Zhou Yun pushed all his assets to Su Lingyun.

Originally, he had thought that Su Lingyun would not mind and accept it. However, he did not expect Su Lingyun to look at him with a cold gaze.

“Who are you looking down on? If I can’t win the bid for the Fire Dragon Sword today, I’ll reverse my name…” Su Lingyun’s mouth was covered by Zhou Yun before she could finish her sentence.

If the auction didn’t work again, Su Lingyun who was now Yun Lingsu, wouldn’t the name change back again?

Just as Zhou Yun stopped Su Lingyun from speaking, the auction resumed!

“The starting price of the top-notch spiritual weapon, the Fire Dragon Sword, is 15,000 spiritual stones. Each increment must be no less than 1,000 spiritual stones!

The black-robed man’s words made many people who had intended to bid draw in a cold breath!

The starting price of the Fire Dragon Sword had reached a terrifying 15,000 spiritual stones!

How long would it take for a golden core grand cultivator to sell himself in order to buy one?

The five guardian golden core grand cultivators shook their heads helplessly when they heard the price.

It was because they were also qualified to bid. However, they realized that even if they sold themselves for hundreds of years, it might not even be enough for one auction!

“D*mn it! If I didn’t buy the Thicket Rain Sword, I would have gotten the Fire Dragon Sword this time!” Hellfire clenched his teeth as he held onto the Thicket Rain Sword! For the first time, he felt that obtaining a high-grade spiritual sword was such a terrible thing!

To find the Treasure Pavilion’s explosive point, he had brought all his assets over and waited for several years. He did not expect to have been cheated!

“16,000 spiritual stones!” In the private room, the veiled woman spoke softly. Her gentle voice spread throughout the auction house, making everyone feel warm in their hearts!

“18,000 spiritual stones!” the blindfolded ribbon-wearing girl said. Although she didn’t use a sword, it was a rare opportunity for her to bring a sect-protecting spiritual weapon to the sect!

“20,000 spiritual stones! I’ll pawn my spiritual sword. It’s worth at least 5,000 spiritual stones!” the young man who was fanning said through gritted teeth. He had originally bought Luther’s Sword for 10,000 spirit stones, but now he had to pawn it at half price. He had gritted his teeth so hard that they were about to shatter!

After two consecutive bids, everyone in the auction realized that the wealth they had been so proud of was actually so vulnerable in front of the chief disciples of the five sects!

The cultivators present all kept their mouths shut. It was better if this top-notch spiritual weapon fell into the hands of one of the five sects. At the very least, there wouldn’t be any turmoil of a sixth sect appearing to fight over this resource that had been scarce!

Just as all the cultivators were wondering which sect this top-notch spiritual sword would end up in, a clear female voice suddenly sounded in the auction!

“Long time no see, trash! I didn’t expect you all to still be at the foundation establishment after five years! How embarrassing!” Su Lingyun suddenly opened her mouth. Her voice was dragged by spiritual energy and echoed throughout the auction.

“I’m not going to waste my time with you, Juniors. I’ll set a fixed price of 25,000 spiritual stones. Come for those who can keep up. Those who can’t, please remember it. We’ll have a contest in the Five Sects Tournament!” Su Lingyun said with a smile.

It was clear that with just the voice, all the cultivators present seemed to be able to see the expression on Su Lingyun’s face that deserved a beating!

“Su Lingyun! You b*stard! You’ve actually come out of seclusion!” The veiled woman’s pupils suddenly shrank, and she couldn’t even maintain her gentle voice as she shouted in surprise!

“Tsk! Sure enough! I knew it wouldn’t be so easy. Since we’re all here, Spirit Valley surely won’t miss it!” The brawny man with the pillar on his back scratched his head and sat down, as if afraid of something.

The scene suddenly fell silent.

After hearing Su Lingyun’s voice, the originally arrogant chief disciples of the four sects no longer say anything else.

They even didn’t intend to bid anymore!

The black-robed man’s hammer fell.

“The Fire Dragon Sword was successfully bidden at the price of 25,000 spiritual stones. Congratulations to the guest in room number one.” As the black-robed man spoke, he suddenly paused.

“Venerable Xunling left a message. He’s very pleased that you’re able to comprehend the perfection of sword intent at the early-stage foundation establishment. He’s looking forward to you breaking through to the golden core stage within a year. By then, he’ll come to see you again.”

After the black-robed man finished speaking, the entire auction house was in an uproar!

They all looked at Zhou Yun’s private room in shock.

That golden core grand cultivator who had comprehended the perfection of sword intent was only in the early-stage foundation establishment!
