YM778.TV Chapter 416: 415
The entire venue fell into silence; no one made an offer immediately. Indeed, with a high starting price of Ten Thousand Elemental Coins, there were likely very few bidders who could afford it. Moreover, those wishing to bid on the Tianyang Flower had to consider whether their identity could bear the responsibility of such a treasure. If they couldn\'t bear it, what they would face was not just backlash but a real disaster. Even ordinary races couldn\'t possibly handle such a treasure.
"Ten Thousand!" The first bid finally came, surprisingly from the Emperor who had spoken first earlier. He did not leave after the Crystal Brand was taken by the Crystal Great Demon Emperor but instead joined the bidding once again.
When an Emperor joined the bidding, those who could compete with him were often only Emperors themselves.
Tang San really wanted to tell his teacher at this moment, "I want that." But without a doubt, it was meaningless.
"Fifteen Thousand!" A frosty voice followed.
"Are you deliberately trying to oppose me today?" The low voice was filled with anger. Being previously overpowered by the Crystal Great Demon Emperor had already soured his mood significantly.
"A treasure of His Majesty Tianyang, who wouldn\'t want it? It has nothing to do with our relationship," the cold voice showed no sign of yielding.
"It\'s so lively here; let me join in the fun, Twenty Thousand." Just then, a third voice rang out. Another Emperor had arrived and joined the bidding.
It was chaos, utter chaos. The first day of the spiritual item auction had attracted so many Emperors?
Those with a keen eye could guess that this latecomer Emperor was probably attracted by the earlier appearance of the Crystal Great Demon Emperor, or perhaps by the existence of the Stone of Refuge. Seeing the Tianyang Flower petals up for auction, he could not help but make a move.
"Has Tianyang gone mad with poverty, selling everything? No more selling petals." Just then, a female voice rang out, filled with surprise and heavy anger. In the next moment, the air within the entire Grand Animal Fighting Arena turned bitterly cold. A pale blue shadow descended from the sky, enveloping the cart before the auction. Suddenly, the previously relentless life force that seemed intent on ravaging everything abruptly snuffed out, and everything returned to normal.
"Your Majesty Earth Yin, that\'s not very nice of you. This is a decision made by the Tianyang Spirit King, you can\'t just take it away," the last Emperor to speak couldn\'t help but say.
Earth Yin Spirit King! The one who acted was none other than the second most powerful top fighter among the Spirit Monster race. Tianyang and Earth Yin, whether inherently opposite or complementary, was unknown.
The Earth Yin Spirit King said indifferently, "I bid One Hundred Thousand. If you can bid more, take it."
"You..." The voice of that Emperor sharpened a bit, but in the end, he said no more.
The pale blue shadow flashed and was gone, and with it, the presence of the Earth Yin Spirit King.
"Ladies and gentlemen, do we have to turn the Ancestral Court\'s grand auction into a farce? Everyone, please step back." Just then, a mild voice suddenly arose. When this voice appeared, the Grand Animal Fighting Arena underwent a sudden change.
A strong sensation of heart palpitations occurred almost instantly in Tang San\'s heart. It was as if, in an instant, he became entirely transparent, as if everything about him was exposed, and a strong sense of crisis instantly filled his mind. Even when the Crystal Great Demon Emperor appeared earlier, he had not felt such a crisis.
```
But at that moment, the Crystal Brand located at his seventh Mark gently trembled, and Tang San distinctly felt a layer of crystal-clear radiance enveloping his skin. The previously transparent sensation immediately vanished, as if he had returned to his original form.
Tang San held his breath, not daring to let his emotions fluctuate in the slightest.
He already knew who was coming, and only this person could suppress the malice of the entire Grand Animal Fighting Arena with his own power.
The other Emperors all fell into silence, and the next moment, beams of light soared into the sky, each transforming into a streak of light that disappeared in different directions.
And that gentle voice rang out again, "Let the auction continue. Until the last day, there will be no Emperors participating in the auction. On behalf of the Ancestral Court, I apologize for everything that has happened today to every bidder."
All the bidders stood up at this moment, deeply bowing towards the direction in the sky. Because they all could guess who this person, who suddenly appeared and resolved the issue, was.
The Dominator of Fate, Great Demon Emperor Heavenly Fox! Only this true principal of the Ancestral Court Council could dominate the other Emperors.
Among all the Emperors, the Great Demon Emperor Heavenly Fox ranked third, but he is the true manager of the Ancestral Court Council. In terms of Cultivation base, he might be inferior to the Crystal Great Demon Emperor and the Tianyang Spirit King, who rank higher, but those two didn\'t manage affairs!
The duties of the Ancestral Court had always been managed by this Dominator of Fate, leading the Monster and Fairy Clans to thrive. In terms of power, he was actually the true number one in the Ancestral Court.
It was better to offend the Crystal Great Demon Emperor than to dare to offend the Great Demon Emperor Heavenly Fox.
The gentle voice then disappeared, and everything seemed to return to normal. Up to this moment, the shock in Tang San\'s heart hadn\'t subsided. With his experience concerning divine-ranked beings, he was well aware that the transparent feeling in his body before should have been caused by the powerful divine consciousness of the Great Demon Emperor Heavenly Fox scanning him. Once the Great Demon Emperor Heavenly Fox\'s divine consciousness detected something unusual about him, he would likely be exposed immediately, and by then, his troubles would be great.
Previously, when climbing the Heavenly Fox Holy Mountain, he did not face the Great Demon Emperor Heavenly Fox but other powerful members of the Fox Tribe. And the Great Demon Emperor Heavenly Fox himself was clearly not comparable to those Clansmen, so if his secrets were discovered by the Great Demon Emperor, he would fear truly be finished.
At this thought, a cold sweat broke out on Tang San\'s back. But what equally amazed him was the Crystal Brand within him; he had not expected it to instinctively protect his body and even block the divine consciousness of the Great Demon Emperor Heavenly Fox. Was this an instinct or a bloodline ability possessed by Jingjing? Was she the heir of the Crystal Great Demon Emperor?
Even with the experience of three lifetimes, Tang San still could not fathom the purpose behind the Crystal Great Demon Emperor giving him the Crystal Egg, nor did he understand exactly what kind of existence Jingjing was.
The arrival of the Great Demon Emperor Heavenly Fox steadied the minds of all the bidders, and undoubtedly, this assurance was good news for everyone, allowing them to continue with this "fair" auction.
The Blue Fox Auctioneer took a deep breath, calming his own emotions, before continuing, "The next item up for auction has been consigned by a party that has allowed us to reveal their name. It comes from the well-known Spirit Rhinoceros Trade Association of our Tianyu Empire. As the final highlight of today, this item is certainly extraordinary. Please bring it out!"
Another cart was brought out, and from the shape of the cart alone, it was apparent that the item up for auction was still of modest size.
Compared to the Stone of Refuge and the Tianyang Flower before it, the item did not emit any intense aura. It appeared quite ordinary here. But this was the truly final item up for auction today!
After the appearance of the Stone of Refuge and the Tianyang Flower, and with the Emperors no longer permitted to participate in the auction, how could the last item not fill all the bidders present with anticipation?
