While Ye Jingcheng was still studying, spiritual light flashed atop the raised platform, and a cultivator appeared there, holding three jade boxes aloft.
Compared with the free trading earlier, this time everyone could display their treasures before the crowd, greatly increasing their chances of a successful exchange. It was also their last opportunity to trade for treasures.
Each person could display only three items, and every one was a treasure among treasures, a spiritual item of exceptional quality.
From Ye Jingcheng's observations, the aura this cultivator revealed was only at early Void Refinement.
But as the jade boxes opened, the first revealed a small square shield radiating brilliant treasure light, with silver tadpole-shaped spiritual patterns emanating from it. It was a defensive Heaven-Reaching spirit treasure, drawing startled cries from the cultivators.
Heaven-Reaching spirit treasures were exceedingly precious even to Void Refinement cultivators, let alone defensive ones.
Of the two remaining jade boxes, one held a jade slip inscribed with a Void Refinement secret art, while the other held a set of formation instructions for the Twelve Glass Sword Formation.
All three treasures were extraordinary. Even Ye Jingcheng was somewhat tempted.
