Double Cultivation
the lotus auction house is on fire
After deceiving the divine sword sect for extreme yin flowers by acting like someone working for Lady Xie, Su Yang continued to travel to the Thunder Valley hunting Lightning Cats for their monster cores. And because of the profound techniques he learned in his previous life, he was able to easily distinguish those with monster cores from those who did not.
Su Yang casually sliced through the forehead of the Lightning Cat with the tip of his sword and released the pebble-sized monster core that was inside, and he threw it into his pocket that was already filled with monster cores.
"I really need a storage ring. All the load on my body felt strange and uncomfortable" muttered Su Yang, who was used to having all the valuables in the storage ring.
A storage ring is a magic ring with space in it itself, such as pocket dimensions, that allows the owner to store items in it, it makes it easier for them to take a walk while carrying items that usually require effort. Cultivators usually kept all of their treasures inside their storage circles, as they were easily accessible when needed and always safe by their side.
"Observing, Heavenly Eyes!" Su Yang's eyes suddenly flickered with a profound light that quickly disappeared.
"So this is the last one to have a monster core, yeah …"
Su Yang gently patted his pouch containing more than a dozen monster cores; it felt as if he was carrying a lot of stones on both sides of his pocket, making him quite uncomfortable for him, because he would rub his feet every time he moved.
"Although I made this journey from pure coincidence, I managed to obtain quite a lot of wealth. Extreme Yin Flowers and a group of monster cores from the Yin-Lightning element .. all of it would benefit women but harm men ..." Su Yang sighed.
In this world, there is a version of Yin or Yang in almost everything — even in elements such as fire, water, wind, and earth — hence why there is Yin-Petir element and Yang-Lightning element.
After clearing Thunder Valley, Su Yang did not wait a second to leave the place, as he did not want to stay there anymore.
As he walked out of Thunder Valley, the people camped outside who recognized him from a few hours ago stared at him with wide eyes. Not only did he return with all of his limbs attached, he even managed to get out unscathed!
As Su Yang walked away, he glanced at the few individuals who had loudly mocked him earlier and showed them a slight smile beside an expression filled with ridicule, causing the blood vessels in their heads to swell like roots.
They wanted to pounce on him at that moment, but since they were all severely injured while Su Yang was in perfect condition, none of them dared to approach him.

After leaving Thunder Valley, Su Yang traveled back to Swift Feather City.
And although it took almost a week to travel to Thunder Valley from Swift Feather City, it was, he was able to return to Swift Feather City the same day he left Thunder Valley as he decided to run at full speed instead of walking at a walking pace like he did last time.
Once he reached the main gate, the guards allowed him to enter without difficulty once they saw an elegant white robe on him that identified him as a disciple of the Blossom Sect.
"Good time to enjoy your stay, Young Master!" They bowed to him as he entered.
And unlike his first visit, Su Yang walked a straight line through the middle of the city without stopping his legs, as he had no reason to linger in this place.
However, when he reached the center of the city, he suddenly halted his steps to see a large group of people trying to enter the large red building in front of them. They were all wearing rich clothes with expensive accessories around their bodies, looking as if they were on their way to a party for the nobles.
There were also some individuals within the group who looked like disciples of a certain sect, but they were a minority and barely visible.
"Burning Lotus Auction House? This was an elite auction house that opened only once a year; it was for those who were rich and wanted to buy or sell rare treasures," the passerby said.
"Auction house, yes .." Su Yang looked at his protruding pocket and nodded, as if he had decided something.
"Thank you" he said before approaching the crowd.
Once he reached the crowd, Su Yang focused his ears to listen to the people around him speak.
"Noble Chen, what are you trying to buy from the auction house this year?"
"Do you want to fight me again this year? If so, then you can give up!"
"Hahaha .. Don't be like that, Noble Chen. If it wasn't for my son who really needed 70-year-old ginseng, I wouldn't have fought you for that."
"Hmph! Because of you, my son almost destroyed the house out of anger that he could not make a breakthrough without that 70-year-old ginseng!"
…
"I have heard rumors that Burning Lotus Auction House might be auctioning off some of their famous handmade pills this year — Burning Lotus Pills!"
"The profound pills that increase one's chances of entering the Profound Spirit Realm by 90%?"
"really? If they really sell the Burning Lotus Pill this year, then I should get it! My son who is at the peak of the Basic Spirit Realm will finally reach the Profound Spirit Realm if he gets his help!"
…
"I can't wait to see Mrs Wang again …"
"Are you here to see the girls or the treasures?"
"Are they not the same thing?"
…
"Eh? noble Chen, you are also here for a low-grade storage ring?"
"What's? Don't tell me you're here for that too?"
"Good…"
"Haha! Goody! Today would be a good day for revenge!"
After hearing that this place was going to auction the storage ring, Su Yang decided to stay around to see if he could get enough of the monster cores to buy them.
