Transmigration: Children of The Plane

Start Of The Auction

When Xue Bai was at the Peak of the Vein Transformation Realm, he could already leapfrog five stages and fight someone at the 3rd stage of the Blood Exchange. And that trend continued all throughout Xue Bai's cultivation in the past year.

When he was at the 8th stage of the Blood Exchange Realm, he could fight someone at the 2nd stage of the Muscles Nourishing Realm. However, now that Xue Bai was at the Peak of the Blood Exchange Realm, he could choose one of two paths.

His choices were to continue in the Blood Exchange Realm and step into the Purification Stages or advance into the Muscle Nourishing Realm.

The Stages of the Purification Realm were, in order, Small Success, Great Success, Perfection, Purification, and Compression.

The Small Success, Great Success, and Perfection Stages were meant to perfect the Realm, while Purification and Compression were for the Dantian.

Though the nine stages in the Blood Exchange Realm had removed most of the impurities within Xue Bai's blood, there were still some hidden impurities that were either hard to reach or too small to be found easily. And the Small Success, Great Success, and Perfection Stages were meant to expel them.

On the other hand, the Purification stage was meant to purify all of the Spiritual Qi in the Dantian, while the Compression Stage was meant to compress all of what was left—leaving a perfect Realm and a pure Dantian.

And though the Purification Stages were extremely hard to complete for any aspiring cultivator, the rewards it gave were worth all of the trouble.

Not only did it give you a combat power boost by perfecting each Realm. It also gives you purer Spiritual Qi while also allowing you to store more Spiritual QI within your Dantian.

However, the major downside and the reason most people on the Southern Continent didn't cultivate the Purification Stages was that in order to do so, it took an enormous amount of resources and a long amount of time. And because of the Southern Continent's bareness, it made it hard for cultivators to do so.

Even a peak genius on the Southern Continent had at most a Peak Yellow Grade Martial Vein, so for them to spend an entire year of their youth to perfect a Realm, the losses outweighed the gains.

Though they might have awakened a Peak Yellow Grade Martial Vein and had the limit of the Domain Lord Realm, that didn't mean that they were guaranteed to reach it. If they wasted too much of their youth and time, they could possibly only reach the Law Manifestation Realm or even lower.

And with their limit known and not enough resources, the Purification Stages weren't of much value to the average cultivator.

However, to Xue Bai, with Huli Jing's storage ring and a Low Heaven Martial Vein, the Purification stages weren't a challenge whatsoever. Not only was his cultivation speed heaven-defying, but he also had enough resources to make a Sect on the Central Continent go red with jealousy.

Thinking that much, Xue Bai decided that he would cultivate them.

After all, he had to contest with Xiao Mo and the other great geniuses of the Baishen Plane. And just because people on the Southern Continent didn't cultivate the Purification Stages didn't mean the cultivators on the Central Continent didn't.

Xue Bai knew that in order to join some of the best sects in the Baishen Plane, it was a requirement to cultivate the Purification Stage in at least 10 different Realms.

As Xue Bai was about to seal his senses and start cultivating, Xiao'er tapped his shoulder, awakening him. Opening his eyes with confusion apparent in them, Xue Bai looked at Xiao'er to see what she was going to say.

"Young Master, look out the window. The auction is about to start," Xiao'er spoke as she pointed behind Xue Bai.

Turning his head, Xue Bai saw that on the stage, a beautiful-looking woman in her early twenties appeared. Though the woman wasn't wearing anything scandalous, she was dressed in a loose set of robes. And her busty figure couldn't be contained by them and was stretching the clothes to their limit, giving the audience a small tease of what lay within.

'I didn't even think they could grow that big.' Xue Bai thought before his vision turned dark.

"Wait! Young Master, don't look!" Xiao'er screamed as she covered Xue Bai's eyes.

At first, Xiao'er didn't see who appeared on the stage as she was still lazing away on the couch. But after seeing the woman and her lust-inducing figure and Xue Bai getting lost in her chest, Xiao'er panicked and blocked his eyesight.

"Xiao'er, why are your hands on my eyes?" Xue Bai asked.

At first, Xue Bai thought he was going blind, but after hearing Xiao'er shout in panic, he knew that his maid was being jealous again.

'I didn't even look at her chest for long! It was only a small glimpse.'

"Humph! I saw your eyes looking at her chest. You looked no better than those soldiers we have at the Dukedom." Xiao'er spoke in a reprimanding tone.

Knowing that even if he bothered to refute Xiao'er, she would still get angry, Xue Bai decided to double down.

"Humph! Even if I was looking, what are you going to do about it?" Xue Bai replied with his chin pointed to the ceiling as if he was looking down on Xiao'er.

Hearing Xue Bai's arrogant reply, Xiao'er was stunned. She had thought that Xue Bai would say sorry, and then she would reluctantly pull away her hands but make him not stare at the hostess's chest. But what Xue Bai said threw Xiao'er off, and she didn't know how to reply.

"Then, then, then, I'll tell Mistress! She will beat you up!" Xiao'er spoke fiercely.

"Mother, if anything, would give me a thumbs up." Xue Bai replied back smugly.

"Then I'll beat you up!" Xiao'er shouted out threateningly, but Xue Bai could tell she had lost some of her spirits from before.

Seeing Xiao'er act like she was, Xue Bai's eyes flashed a crafty look, and he immediately turned around and pounced on the girl.

Landing on her stomach, Xue Bai reached for her hips.

"KYAA!" Xiao'er yelled out as she was caught off guard.

Not wanting to miss the opportunity, Xue Bai started to tickle Xiao'er sides.

From his more than 4 years with Xiao'er, Xue Bai knew that she was extremely ticklish, especially on her hips, which were his targets.

"Wait! Wait! Young Master, no, don't, you know I'm ticklish!" Xiao'er tried to shout out in between laughs, but Xue Bai ignored her and continued mercilessly.

"Let's see if you'll beat me up now, huh!" Xue Bai muttered.

"I'm sorry, Young Master. I won't threaten you again." Xiao'er yelled out as she finally yielded.

Seeing her give up, Xue Bai got off of her stomach and humphed.

"I wasn't even looking at that woman for long. It was also the last thing I noticed, Xiao'er. I didn't look at them like a lustful demon." Xue Bai explained.

However, Xiao'er still couldn't reply as she was getting her breathing under control and wiping the tears from her eyes from all of the laughter.

As Xue Bai continued to explain his innocence, the busty woman on the stage pulled out a pedestal from her spatial ring and began to talk to the audience.

Though it was inconvenient for the lady to have to supply her own pedestal, having her do so could also allow the audience to gaze at her lower half for longer, gaining more attention that Golden Hall Auction Houses needed.

"I, Ling Yun, welcome all of our special guests today to our Golden Hall Auction Houses annual auction!" The busty woman named Ling Yun announced as she gave a deep bow to the audience, teasing them even more.

"Humph, that Vixen!" Xiao'er up in the booth muttered unhappily.

'Just give me a few more years, and I'll have that vixen crying with jealousy!' Xiao'er thought mentally as she looked at her own mountains.

Xue Bai on the side saw her but didn't comment as he knew that they were a touchy subject for women.

"I hope that all our dear guests have the list of all that we will be auctioning off day, so without further ado, I will start with the first item on the list!" Ling Yun announced as she motioned to the curtain and signaled out a group of people pushing a cart where on top, a case covered with a cloth sat.

The attendants pushed the cart in front of Ling Yun, bowed, and then went back behind the curtains to not disturb the auction any longer.

By herself again, Ling Yun started to speak about the first item.

"Our first item is being auctioned off today is a sword that was forged by the Assistant Chief Blacksmith of our Dukedom, Blacksmith Guo." Ling Yun announced to the crowd.

The crowd, after hearing the woman, naturally erupted into cheers. After being taken in by Xue Feng and put under Huo Chen, Blacksmith Guo had turned from a chicken into a phoenix.

Before in the Stone Gambling Pavillion, he was only a man who cut open stones. But now, with his own Smithy and a handful of capable subordinates, he finally had the chance in life to do his passion.

And with his talent, he quickly became a High Yellow Grade Blacksmith even though he was only in the Mid stages of the Houtian Realm.

Now Blacksmith Guo had a large influence, and his works were known all throughout the Dukedom and even had some fame throughout the entire Great Xuan Empire.

Seeing the reaction of the crowd, Ling Yun knew she had them, and without wasting any further time, she pulled off the cloth, revealing the sword inside.
