Shen Xiaomao and Ruan Qingzhu had left their marks on each other; after all, they had signed the Heaven's Augury Pact and were partners in a trusted mutual defense alliance.
By nightfall at the mercantile union, the auction of spirit fortune sticks had begun.
Differently from what Lu Ye expected, each cultivator participating in the auction received a small object from the Heaven's Augury Mercantile Union, made from an unknown material. It was about the length of a finger and looked like a jade rod.
After being instructed on its use by the union's manager, Lu Ye gripped the jade rod in his partition and immersed his mind into it.
In an instant, the scene shifted, somewhat similar to his experiences entering the Heaven's Augury treasure vault each time, and his mind suddenly appeared in a closed-off small room.
