Rise of the Sword Son-in-Law-Chapter 812 - 811 Taixuan City

Having passed the fourth stele’s trial, Xu Ping’an’s strength had greatly increased.

Xu Ping’an did not consume the Divine Fire Pill, as the elixir wouldn’t significantly enhance his Chaotic Divine Fire.

Thus, Xu Ping’an decided to keep it for emergencies.

Next, Xu Ping’an activated the fifth stele, which didn’t assign an outside task but rather provided a Basic Refinement Technique, requiring him to master it within three days.

However, this Basic Refinement Technique was ten times more complex than the previous Divine Skills.

Fortunately, Xu Ping’an had a deep foundation in Artifact Refining, so he wasn’t stumped by this task.

Still, he was quite surprised that the foundational knowledge of Artifact Divine Sect was so profound.

How powerful could the true Artifact Refining inheritance be?

No wonder the Artifact Divine Sect was famously known throughout the Ancient Times and even existed since the archaic era.

From then on, Xu Ping’an developed a genuine reverence for the so-called Artifact Divine Sect.

"How did he pass five trials? How is that possible?" Shen Sanqian, gazing at the five beams of light appearing above the temple, exhibited profound disbelief.

Could Xu Ping’an actually pass five trials and obtain the inheritance?

If that were the case, it would create a huge stir across the entire Immortal Realm, even affecting the future Divine Realm.

Others might not understand the significance of the Artifact Divine Sect’s inheritance, but he knew it clearly.

…

Xu Ping’an continued onto the sixth stele.

When he let his blood drip onto the stele, the task appeared.

Written on the stele was: Retrieve the lost treasure of the Artifact Divine Sect, the Thousand Mechanism Tower, within a five-day time limit.

Thousand Mechanism Tower?

Xu Ping’an was somewhat surprised, realizing it was a treasure of the Artifact Divine Sect.

But where should he begin his search?

However, Xu Ping’an wasn’t worried. Although each stele issued a task, they always teleported him to a location relevant to the task.

He just needed to follow some clues to pinpoint the key aspect of the task.

He figured this time would be no different.

"Buzz!"

Sure enough, a beam of light appeared.

Xu Ping’an’s form vanished within the grand hall.

…

Mystic Spirit Realm.

Outside an immensely bustling city, which was currently overcrowded.

Numerous powerful beings were rushing into the inner parts of the city.

Xu Ping’an materialized out of nowhere, with a hint of surprise on his face.

"Taixuan City? Is this the Mystic Spirit Realm?" Xu Ping’an asked, slightly perplexed.

The temple had teleported him here.

Taixuan City was one of the most famous cities in the Mystic Spirit Realm, renowned not just for anything else but for housing the famous Taixuan Commerce Guild known across the Four Great Spirit Realms.

With vast influence and businesses spread across the Four Great Spirit Realms, if there was any force wealthiest in the Four Great Spirit Realms, it undoubtedly had to be the Taixuan Commerce Guild.

And the headquarters of the Taixuan Commerce Guild was located in Taixuan City.

His appearance here hinted that the Thousand Mechanism Tower might be with the Taixuan Commerce Guild.

If that was the case, the task would not be an easy one.

Both the Taixuan Commerce Guild and the Wind and Cloud Pavilion were transcendental forces.

One controlled all the intelligence across the world; the other dominated the world’s wealth.

Those strong individuals were also very numerous. With Xu Ping’an’s strength, it was nearly impossible to snatch something from the hands of Taixuan Commerce.

"Forget it, let’s see what happens first. There might be other opportunities," Xu Ping’an muttered to himself.

As of now, the whereabouts of the Qianji Pagoda had yet to be fully confirmed; only after confirmation could he make further plans.

"Eh, why are there so many people?" Xu Ping’an curiously looked around.

He noticed that there seemed to be too many people in Taixuan City, which shouldn’t be the case even if it was an extremely prosperous place.

Glancing at the crowd, Xu Ping’an noticed that their cultivation levels were quite strong.

At least Seventh Rank and above, with most coming from major factions.

Everyone was hurrying towards Taixuan City, which puzzled Xu Ping’an.

He then caught a Seventh Rank young cultivator and asked him for information.

It turned out that Taixuan City was going to host a very grand auction, where many treasures would be sold.

This also explained why there were so many people here.

And his target, the Qianji Pagoda, might be among the items being auctioned.

If that were the case, then securing the auction would mean accomplishing his mission.

Thinking this, Xu Ping’an felt that he needed to find out exactly what items would be up for auction.

"Young master, are you here for the auction? Do you need a guide?"

Right then, a young boy hurried over.

Xu Ping’an looked at the boy and noticed his cultivation had reached Fifth Rank, yet he was only about fifteen years old.

Achieving such a rank at this young age suggested notable talent.

"What do you know about the auction?" Xu Ping’an asked with a smile.

"Senior, whatever you want to know, just ask me. I’m quite clear about most of the things regarding this auction," the boy boasted hurriedly.

"Oh? Then find me a place to stay first, and then tell me everything you know. This is a low-grade Immortal Stone; if your answers satisfy me, I can give you nine more," Xu Ping’an tossed a low-grade Immortal Stone to him.

The boy caught the Immortal Stone, his face immediately showing immense surprise.

He then hurriedly stored the Immortal Stone in his storage ring to prevent it from being coveted by others.

Seeing his reaction, Xu Ping’an also showed a hint of a smile.

This guy was quite clever.

"I’ll take the senior to a place to stay right away. Senior, the accommodations in the city are already full at this time, but I can find a good place for you," the boy said joyfully.

He then led Xu Ping’an into the city.

As Xu Ping’an followed, he observed the people in the city.

At this moment, Taixuan City was truly crowded, with many powerful cultivators even of Tenth Rank and above, and Xu Ping’an even saw quite a few of Eleventh Rank and even Immortal Emperor Realm.

Just on the way, he encountered as many as five Immortal Emperors.

So much time hadn’t passed, and to encounter five Immortal Emperors showed the immense draw of this auction.

Xu Ping’an found himself increasingly looking forward to this auction.

Soon, the boy led Xu Ping’an to a very secluded courtyard.

Located far from the bustling downtown, it was a deserted house owned by a family.

After some persuasion by the boy, the owners temporarily rented the house to Xu Ping’an.

It had to be said, the boy really had some capability.

Finding such a quiet place in the bustling Taixuan City was truly not an easy task.

"Senior, how is it? Are you satisfied?" the boy asked with a smile.

"Well done, now tell me what you know about the auction, the more detailed, the better," Xu Ping’an responded with a smile.

The boy grinned and started, "Senior, are you aware of the Reincarnation List?"

Reincarnation List?

Xu Ping’an was taken aback, his face immediately showing a look of surprise.

Could it be that the Reincarnation List was part of this auction?
