It was clear that the name of Flaming Blade Duan River was still known by many within the Central Divine Dynasty Western Region, where Spiritual Crane Immortal City was located.

However, several breaths later, before the auction host could start the countdown, a gentle female voice rang out, "I offer seven hundred and fifty Grade-Entering Profound Truth Jades!"

Immediately after this voice sounded, the discussions throughout the entire venue became even more pronounced. Cultivators everywhere were asking their companions who exactly was making the bid. The voice originated from a private booth in a secluded corner. Moreover, the booths at the Immortal Sect auction were crafted from special materials, making it impossible for anyone to discern who was inside making the bid.

Inside the Spiritual Crane Immortal Sect's booth, Qu Qingfeng and Qu Qingling's faces both changed slightly upon hearing the bidding. They immediately called in an Eighth-Layer Immortal Servant from the door.

According to what Lii Xiaolan had told Lin Xuankong, these Eighth-Layer and Ninth-Layer Immortal Servants of the Spiritual Crane Immortal Sect were all relatives and friends of the sect's disciples. Because their talent was not good enough to join the sect, yet they wanted to obtain some special resources from the sect and occasional guidance from the sect's Immortal Masters, they voluntarily became Immortal Servants. They were roughly considered a kind of outer disciple for the Spiritual Crane Immortal Sect and other Immortal Sects.

When Lin Xuankong first heard this, he had felt quite emotional. Eighth-Layer and Ninth-Layer cultivators, in a place like the Great Xia Dynasty, were at least top figures of the Dynasty, or top figures who founded their own sects. Even if they were in a state, they were powerful cultivators millions of others had to look up to! Yet, to obtain some resources from the Immortal Sect and occasional guidance from its disciples, these slightly less talented cultivators were willing to become others' slaves!

However, how poor in talent could cultivators who managed to reach the Eighth-Layer or Ninth-Layer of the Transcendence Realm truly be? It was just that in a place like Spiritual Crane Immortal City, these individuals—despite being comparable to figures like King Qi, King Yu, the Grand Elders of the Profound Phoenix Celestial Sect, and the Grand Elders of the Holy Dragon Association from the Great Xia Dynasty—were still far less talented than other prodigies.

In fact, the cultivators around him, including Second Lady Zhao Yufei and Li Xiaohu, might have found it difficult to achieve their current accomplishments without him. The difficulty of cultivation, for ordinary cultivators, is truly as hard as ascending to the heavens! For the sake of cultivation, many die competing for resources, many die competing for cultivation techniques, many die competing for Celestial Demon Bones, and many even abandon their dignity. But how many can achieve the status of Earth Immortal and become powerful cultivators with a lifespan of eight thousand years, nearly immortal...

Hmm, if I also took in some Immortal Servants and had them all recognize me as their foster father, I could certainly save many people from their uncertain path of cultivation! At the very least, for these cultivators willing to become slaves to pursue the path of cultivation, becoming my foster sons would genuinely be a great advantage for them!

At this time, Qu Qingfeng called in the Immortal Servant and said in a low voice, "Who exactly is in that booth? She clearly knows someone is bidding from our Spiritual Crane Immortal Sect's booth, and she clearly knows Flame Saber Sect Leader Duan is bidding, yet she still dares to outbid us?"

Lii Xiaolan also couldn't help but whisper curiously, "Could it be a disciple or a female Earth Immortal from another Immortal Sect?"

Chang Li's face, on the other hand, showed a slight grimness.
