Chapter 270：Dream Court

Seeing that Lin Feng and the two other men and women were all silent, the two pairs of men and women nearby snorted with laughter and paid no more attention to Lin Feng and his companions. 

"Brother, do you know why Cold Brother came to Tianlu Ancient City this time?" 

"Of course, Master Leng Yue's visit to Tianlu Ancient City this time is for a single sword." A man replied. 

"Oh?" The young girl smiled and looked around at the people there, then continued, "Cold Senior Brother's swordsmanship is already so powerful. If a sword can attract him, it must be a very powerful one, right?" 

"Broken Moon Sword, a top-grade divine artifact. Do you think it's powerful enough?" 

The man from the Hua Yue Sect smiled and said with a laugh, causing the eyes of the surrounding crowd to brighten. There were streaks of strange colors flickering in their gazes. Indeed, the Sword Prince had appeared in Tian Luo Ancient City for the sake of the "Chang Yue". They had all heard the news that Chang Yue was going to be auctioned in Tian Luo Ancient City. Many had come for this purpose. 

"Top-grade divine artifacts, wouldn't that mean many people would like to obtain them?" 

"Ha ha, if Cold Moon Senior Brother is around, no one dares to ask for it. Unless they want to make Cold Moon Senior Brother their enemy and become enemies with my皓月宗 

When the crowd heard the two voices singing and responding to each other, they all understood what they meant. They were threatening. Anyone who dared to challenge Cold Moon for the knife should think it through first. The woman from the Bright Moon Sect would surely know why Cold Moon came here. It was clearly done on purpose. The voices of the several people in the conversation all carried a hint of superiority over others. 

However, no one in the crowd contradicted them. The Hao Yue Sect did indeed have considerable influence in Tian Luo Ancient City. Moreover, at this moment, the Cold Moon Blade Master, Liang Yue, was also sitting there. 

"Superior-grade Spirit Weapon!" Lin Feng's eyes flickered with a hint of excitement. Now that he was aware of the classification of weapons, apart from ordinary weapons, there were only Spirit Weapons. Spirit Weapons possess a spirit essence and can cut through iron as easily as mud. They hold a significant advantage in battles. Moreover, Spirit Weapons are also classified into three grades: superior, middle, and inferior. 

Lin Feng once obtained quite a few divine artifacts in the ancient hall beneath the Linghuo Sect's Lingguo Peak and Zhongguo Peak. Most of them were inferior and medium-grade divine artifacts, while there were a few superior-grade ones as well, but not many. 

In Xue Yue Kingdom, both divine artifacts and elixirs are extremely rare. It is already quite remarkable to possess a top-grade divine artifact. 

And beyond the inferior talismans, there are even more advanced artifacts known as "Xuanji." In the Snow Moon Kingdom, there are very few of them. Only the strongest in the Xuanwu Realm possess them. Lin Feng has never seen one until now. 

"Boss Sword, this Broken Moon, do you want it?" 

Lin Feng's gaze turned to Ba Dao and he whispered, causing Ba Dao's gaze to freeze. 

The Blade of Domination is a weapon wielded by a martial artist. Naturally, one who wields such a weapon would have a fondness for it. If one possesses a precious blade, how could they not be fond of it? 

"Yes." Ba Da took a nod, not being overly sentimental at all. His personality was like this - he did whatever he thought of doing. 

"OK." Lin Feng gave a faint nod and said no more. 

After some time, Leng Yue from downstairs put down the wine cup in his hand, then lifted his foot and walked out of Tian Shan Restaurant alone. He came alone and went alone. 

As soon as he left, the intangible martial spirit in the restaurant vanished as well, and the oppressive atmosphere dissipated. 

"Little sister, let's go too." 

Several disciples of the Hua Yue Sect beside Lin Feng also stood up and lifted their feet to leave the tavern. 

After they had left, Lin Feng turned to Ba Dao and said, "Why don't you go and ask where your precious sword is?" 

Badao's expression slightly tightened. Then he understood and stood up, walking over to the adjacent wine table. He asked the people at the table, "Where will the Broken Moon Blade appear?" 

The two people sitting at the drinking table raised their heads and glanced at the big sword. Then they sneered coldly: "Just you? You ask where the Moon-Blade is?" 

"Boom!" 

As soon as his words ended, a terrifying sense of the sword's might suddenly burst forth, pressing down upon him. This sword's might was extremely domineering, causing the person speaking to shudder all over and his face to show a strong expression of fear. 

"At Dream Pavilion, today at Dream Pavilion, the full moon will be auctioned off." 

The man exclaimed in panic, his heart filled with horror. Just now, the blade of the Badao had slashed out at Cold Moon, the Blade Prince. Therefore, his experience was not profound. At this moment, when all the blade essence of Badao descended upon him, he felt as if he was about to suffocate and die. Such a powerful blade force! This man wearing the bronze mask had already reached the realm of "势" in his martial arts skills. 

"Lead the way." 

The bully once again spoke up and said something, causing the man's face to turn pale. However, he obediently stood up. Fortunately, what he said was the truth. If he had deceived the bully just now, he would have been doomed. 

"OK." 

He nodded stiffly and then walked towards the steps of the tavern. Lin Feng and Mengqing also got up and followed him. 

Watching Lin Feng and others leave, the tavern began to be lively again. 

"Who was that person just now? Such a domineering and powerful martial spirit, the person wielding the knife. He must also be interested in the Moon Fragment." 

"Exactly, and those young couple as well. Their demeanor is also quite impressive. Although they are at a disadvantage compared to the 'Sword Master' type of people, it doesn't mean they don't want the 'Changliu' type of person. It seems there will be more excitement to come." 

The crowd murmured among themselves. Some even stood up and headed towards Dream Pavilion. It was said that today's Dream Pavilion was not only to auction the Broken Moon but also to showcase two precious treasures. 

Mengge is one of the three major trading places in Tianlu Ancient City. It covers an area of one hundred miles in radius and is vast and boundless. 

Tianlu Ancient City is an ancient city that has been passed down for tens of millions of years. Its essence is deeper than that of Xue Yue Imperial City. Rare treasures often appear here. 

However, some people, upon obtaining rare treasures, would either take them to the trading pavilion for sale, conduct transactions by themselves, or entrust them to the trading pavilion for auction. 

At this moment, Lin Feng and others stepped into the Dream Pavilion. Inside, it was quite noisy. 

The handsome and elegant young man with a graceful demeanor, the delicate and beautiful young lady, the ragged old man, and even the dirty beggar-like figure, all exist in Dream Pavilion. 

These people, some of them were setting up stalls on the ground, while others were wandering around in search of what they wanted. 

"Sir, do you want to learn the Supreme Greatness Supreme-level martial arts technique?" 

At this moment, a middle-aged man walked up to Lin Feng and whispered something to him. Lin Feng was stunned for a moment, then he smiled and shook his head: "No need." 

The middle-aged man heard Lin Feng's words but didn't stop. He left directly as if nothing had happened. 

"What's going on here?" 

Lin Feng's gaze turned towards the person leading the way, and a trace of confusion flashed across his face. 

"Isn't this your first visit to Tianlu Ancient City?" 

"Yes." Lin Feng nodded. 

"Of course." The man gave a look of realization and said, "Tianlu Ancient City is the largest trading city of Xue Yue. The trading forms here are diverse. Generally, the items traded are ordinary goods, not very valuable. Of course, there is one exception. There are some truly powerful individuals. They have great strength and thus don't care. They dare to trade precious treasures on the ground. Who dares to snatch them!" 

"However, the second type of transaction is to find a trading partner oneself. For instance, the person just mentioned, who possesses the martial arts technique and needs to exchange it for the yuan stones, will seek out someone who needs the martial arts technique and can provide him with a sufficient amount of yuan stones. There is also the third type of transaction, which is auctioning. You hand over the treasures you possess to Mengge for handling and let them be auctioned off." 

"Why do those people prefer to find trading partners by themselves instead of submitting them to Mengge for auction?" Lin Feng asked in puzzlement. Auctioning, Mengge should not charge too much for the service. Besides, it could fetch a good price. 

Here are several reasons. Firstly, Dream Pavilion only accepts ten items for auction each day. If you want to entrust them with the auction of your items, you need to hand over the items for auction to Dream Pavilion three days in advance for them to screen. After three days, if your items are selected, the auction can proceed; if not, they will be returned to you. This has made many people reluctant to go through this procedure. Moreover, for ordinary items, they are simply not likely to be selected. 

"Secondly, some people have a stronger sense of caution. They are reluctant to reveal their treasures to others, feeling uneasy about it. They also think they won't be at ease even after the auction. Therefore, they prefer to search for them by themselves, like looking for a needle in a haystack." 

Lin Feng nodded slightly upon hearing the other party's explanation. Indeed, both of these situations do exist and are reasonable. One feels at ease when holding the treasure in one's own hands. This is a kind of mentality, and many people have it. It's a common human trait. 

"It seems that I will have to stay at Dream Pavilion for some time." 

Lin Feng inwardly sighed, "This time I came to Tianlu Ancient City with a plan. I was expecting to obtain some essential items." 

"Look, that's the ice field. The ice field of the Snowy Mountain Village has arrived." 

At this moment, a cry of surprise rang out. Many people turned their gazes towards a certain place. There, a row of figures were advancing step by step. The one leading the way had an air of chill all over his body, cold and piercing. He was none other than Iceberg, the most outstanding disciple of the Snowy Mountain Villa after the "Snowfall Prince" entered the imperial city.
