9 Azure Dragon City
Tian Long smiled to himself as he left the Lonely Devilwood Forest. 'I'll make sure that we meet by "fate" again in the future.'
"System, open the Level-up gift." He said.
[ Ding! Opening Level-up Gift pack... 20%...60%...100%! Opening! ]
[ Ding! Congratulations to host for obtaining 10,000 apex points and an Escape Talisman. ]
[ Ding! Congratulations to host for obtaining the supreme-rank Immortal grade technique {Fiery Optic Golden Vision}. ]
[ Ding! Congratulations to host for obtaining the mid-rank Divine grade {Everlasting-Soul Manual}. ]
Remembering that he needed a soul cultivating technique, Tian Long was over the moon hearing the system reward him a soul cultivating technique, and a divine grade one at that.
"System, show me the techniques that I received."
[ Ding! {Fiery Optic Golden Vision}: A heavenly eye technique which can see through all kinds of things in this world such as illusions, disguises, formations and so on.
{Everlasting-Soul Manual}: A soul-enhancing manual from the system which is tailored for the host Tian Long. It could be said to be one of the peak soul cultivation method in this world. ]
Tian Long rushed towards the closest city to him after taking a look at his newly acquired skills. 'According to Jian Meili, the closest city to the Lonely Devilwood Forest is called Azure Dragon City. It seems to be thousands of miles away from here so it'll probably take me an hour or two to get there.'
With his speed, along with Dragon Force, he could be said to be as fast or even faster than Emperor realm cultivators.

Azure Dragon City.
Donned with his silky Robe of Fleeting Snow, Tian Long appeared within the bustling streets. Cultivators along with ordinary people could be seen walking side by side. This city was humungous as it was countless times bigger than the cities back on Earth.
Tian Long then immediately bought a map of the {Endless Forces Continent} and thought. 'With my {True Lightning Grass}, I'll be able to find lightning sources on this continent so buying a map is a must for me. Also, I should look around this city, maybe I'll be able to find some treasures or a good seedling for my sect. '
He grinned as he walked towards a nearby fancy inn.
He went to the receptionist lady and said. "Good morning, I just wanted to ask, how much is the cost of a single night in this place?"
The lady lightly smiled as she replied. "Good sir, for an ordinary room, we charge 1 gold for a single night, for a deluxe room it's 10 gold for a night and 70 gold for a luxurious suite."
Tian Long was about to ask for a luxurious suite when he thought. 'Fuck! I actually forgot that I have no money yet. I only bought the map using a level 2 demonic core and this inn doesn't look like they'll take demonic cores for payment...'
He asked awkwardly. "Emm, do you guys take demonic cores for a payment? You see I accidentally forgot my storage ring at a friend's house so I don't have any gold with me right now."
The lady's smile instantly vanished as she gazed at him with disdain. "Does it look like we exchange for demonic cores in this inn? You should find a different place to stay than this one." She walked out after she said that.
Tian Long cursed. 'Cheh, what are you looking at me with disdain for? If you see my face then you'll probably be begging me to stay and treat me like your god.'
He muttered. "There's that Azure Dragon Auction House a few minutes away from here. I could just buy some high-grade pills from the system and sell it there to earn huge amounts of money."
After making his decision, Tian Long then started walking towards the auction house.

Azure Dragon Auction House.
A male receptionist could see a white-robed young man with a mask on, walking towards him and thought. 'Emitting this kind of pressure at such a young age, he's definitely not someone ordinary.'
Tian Long actually controlled his Dragon Force so that only a tiny bit of it would leak out which was actually harder than he expected as he always releases it in full force.
He walked to the receptionist and said in a calm tone. "I would like to auction a pill. I won't say much except that it's above Level-4, oh and its also above mid-rank."
The male receptionist froze when he heard what the white-robed person said. 'A Level-4 pill is indeed rare but a rank above middle? Such pills auctioned in here could only be counted in one hand.'
The receptionist immediately replied after regaining his senses. "Please wait for a moment here, young master. As I'm not qualified to take care of such level of a pill, I need to get a higher-up of this place to take care of the process."
Tian Long only nodded his head in response. The man quickly left when he saw his confirmation.
After a few minutes, a refined middle-aged man could be seen along with the receptionist, who left after taking him to Tian Long. The middle-aged man introduced himself to Tian Long. "Greetings, my name is Fang De and I am the manager of this auction house. May I know what our young friend is called?"
He replied. "You can call me Long."
The middle-aged man said. "So It's young master Long. Previously you said that you have a pill above mid-rank and level 4 correct?"
He nodded his head.
Fang De was a little bit agitated when he saw Tian Long nod. "Would you mind telling me what pill it is, young master Long?"
Tian Long answered in his calm yet strong voice. "Level 5, {Tranquil Heart Pill}, supreme ranked."
Fang De's eyes bulged like tomatoes when he heard that as he stuttered. "S-s-supreme ranked? Young master Long, you aren't making this up are you?"
Tian Long calmly looked at him as he said. "If you don't believe me then I can just go to another city to auction this pill."
Fang De immediately apologized as he regained his calm, yet still a little bit excited. "Forgive my rudeness young master Long, It's just that such a pill to come by could be said to be as rare as a qilin's horn and phoenix's feather. Would you mind showing me the pill?"
Tian Long replied as he gave him a look. "Not in here, we need a different place."
Fang Da nodded as he took Tian Long upstairs and into the highest floor. The floor only had a single, big room. However, it could be said to be the most important and luxurious place of the auction house.
Tian Long, after he entered the room and sat down, took out a jade bottle with a clear, white pill inside of it. The pill was emitting a white aura that would leave someone to a tranquil state just by being near it.
Fang De, upon seeing the pill, had a red face due to the excitement he was feeling. "It's indeed a supreme-rank {Tranquil Heart Pill}. Low-rank and mid-rank {Tranquil Heart PIlls} are very useful to Emperor realm cultivators. And a supreme ranked one is in here right now. Those old monsters in this city would probably use all of the wealth that they've accumulated throughout the years to compete for this pill."
Tian Long was excited in his heart when he heard what Fang De said as he's finally gonna have a huge amount of money for the first time in his two lives. However, his face remained expressionless.

News traveled quickly throughout the city as even old emperor realm cultivators emerged from their homes.
A large number of people were gathered in front of a gigantic auction house, which was, of course, the Azure Dragon Auction House.
They were all excited and eager to see the famed supreme-ranked Level 5 pill.
Once the gates opened, everyone immediately entered inside.

Tian Long smiled as he sat in the highest leveled, Sun-ranked room, and looked at those money-walking bags walking to their seats.
(Note: The sitting within are ranked as follows: Common, Earth, Sky, Moon, and Sun.)
He waited as he thanked the one who would buy his pill, which cost a mere 1500 apex points from the Apex store.
After a while, the auction began as the auctioneer stepped forward and prepared the first item.
