Chapter 431: Transcendent Attacks Like a Natural Disaster
B-level equipment.
Even the most common B-level equipment, B1, was hard to come by. Only five-star adventurers were eligible to exchange, and even for them, they still needed to gather enough source crystal to buy it.
And now, just a short distance away, just a bit more source crystal, they could grasp it!
The eyes of countless hunters are burning. The enchanting body of the auctioneer does not distract those hunters.
This equipment might be a once-in-a-lifetime item!
Then, Liu Yao, the auctioneer, smiled: “To give you a more intuitive understanding of this object, according to the old rules, we will do a practical demonstration.”
A young hunter whose aura was only at the first level, slightly nervous, approached the stands and wore the “Golden Dragon Armor”, while on the other hand, several large men dressed in black carried a black iron cage covered by a curtain.
The iron cage creaked and hissed from under the hood.
Sensing an angry aura, Gong Changping more or less sensed the intentions of the auction house but was more alert.
The curtain is pulled back. The large iron cage was carved with intricate patterns. Inside, a creature with a red body, six feet long, and a terrifying appearance appeared before the crowd.
Demon beast!
It is a “six-legged red devil” with the strength of the seventh level!
Its sharp claws beat against the iron cage, the metal splatter … but the cage was solid. At that time, the great people opened the cage door, and the young Hunter, who had been wearing golden armor, seemed to have calmed his nervousness and carefully entered the cage, looking strong under the “golden dragon armor”.
With a roar, the six-legged red demon attacked the young Hunter with a barrage of stabs and thrusts.
The young Hunter has activated the “Protection” ability, which is granted with gold armor. The moment he entered the cage, a dazzling golden aura appeared on the armor, like shields coalescing to form a shield of light.
The claws thudded violently, the golden shield flashed. It lasted three or four seconds before the young Hunter came out of the cage. His face was a bit white, but his body was unharmed.
Even the impact was perfectly deflected.
“…… I will now begin the auction for ‘Golden Dragon Armor’, starting price…8000 source crystals.”
Boom!
The noise covered the entire auction house.
The atmosphere reached its peak in an instant.
The hunters in the first-floor hall kept raising their bids, “8000”, “10000”, “15000”, “18000”……
The price kept soaring, and even the second-floor chambers had voices coming out.
………
The third floor.
The number one chamber, where the most prestigious client sat.
Tang Yu, with half of his body sunk into the soft couch, his eyes went through the floor-to-ceiling window in front of him and saw clearly the booth below.
There were some exotic fruits on the table, all collected from all over the world, which were not beneficial to cultivation but had excellent taste. This array of exotic fruits came with this chamber, fitting for a VIP client …… Of course, there were also more luxurious ones, such as “clear spirit wine”, which require others to pay out of their own pockets.
Tang Yu reached out towards the fruit basket and grabbed it, but… he didn’t manage to grab anything, only to hear a click-click-click crisp sound. Tang Yu glanced at the source of that sound and saw Zhu Shu-Li put the exotic fruit on her mouth.
“Delicious zee-“
She touched her small stomach.
Cousin Chen Xiaojia pouted and was aggrieved to see the empty fruit basket.
Tang Yu held his forehead and then ordered more food.
At this moment, the auction of the “Golden Dragon Armor” below has gradually come to an end, and the auction price finally stopped at 28,300 source crystals.
The hunters who took the “Golden Dragon Armor” were ecstatic and felt that he had made a big profit - there were few pieces of equipment with dual skills in the Adventurers’ Guild’s exchange list.
Tang Yu said that it was indeed a big profit, only in terms of collection value.
……
A piece of auction items was presented.
There were equipment, props, potions … these mainly were provided by the territory, but there were some of the rarer stuff in the auction, which most people have never seen before, or even never heard of the items.
Of course, the objects that could pass the appraisal and become auction items were valuable.
-The owners of these items were generally not willing to sell them directly to the shelter.
Only on occasions like auctions were they willing to bring out their treasured possessions.
Tang Yu ran the “Eye of Insight” and gazed at each item.
A fruit from a small tree caught his attention.
[Body Tempering Fruit]: Source plant with body tempering effect.
This small tree had a starting price of only one thousand source crystals. It was considered very low for a source plant, similar to an awakening fruit, which was often worth three to five thousand source crystals, but some were also priceless …… However, not many people seemed interested in bidding on this kind of item.
“Directly swallowing this fruit might affect the body negatively, but if it is used as the main material of some potions, it may be able to improve the quenching liquid formula …… Before this, the effect of a quenching liquid for awakening purpose is minimal, after improvement, it may be able to play a significant role.
What’s more, with a level six farmland paired with a level three source qi pool, it should be possible to feed this small tree.”
……
Time passed, and more than one hour passed in a flash.
During that time, more than a hundred items were auctioned off one after another, and the hunters’ enthusiasm has decreased.
Tang Yu also took a few of them, holding them in his hands and playing with them.
Soon, the auction was nearing its end.
“……What is about to be presented is the grand finale of this auction.” Auctioneer Liu Yao paused, whetting the appetite of the hunters below, before saying, “Back-to-city scrolls and Spatial Backpacks!”
Under the spotlight were five scrolls that resembled talisman paper and three black shoulder backpacks.
They were presented in front of thousands of pairs of eyes.
The venue fell into silence for a moment.
Most people didn’t hear or didn’t quite dare to believe what they heard. So there was a bewilderingly awkward atmosphere.
Liu Yao had expected this reaction and soon started to display the main centerpiece of this auction. She opened the tiny black backpack and took out one item after another from inside, soon piling up into a small mountain.
And she also invited some well-known strong people on stage to try.
She also took out two of the return scrolls for the demonstration. When the scrolls were ripped open, two strong figures in full view of the public disappeared without a trace in a moment.
Only a moment later did they run back to the auction house, excitedly telling the fact that they had just arrived at a certain place outside the city in a flash - that was a new back-to-city record point opened by Tang Yu in order to sell back-to-city scrolls - he naturally could not let passersby appear in his own castle every day.
Soon, the whole place was abuzz with excitement.
Spatial backpacks were amazing; they enabled the hunters to collect more treasure along the way.
And Back-to-city scrolls were even more life-saving artifacts!
With them, hunters could explore the otherwise unexplored area and have life insurance if anything were to happen!
This set of novice artifacts sold together was immediately pushed to a high price of 100,000 source crystals before the momentum began to slow down, but there were still many voices raising the price from the second and third-floor chambers.
Tang Yu looked at it and nodded slightly.
The cost of both was very cheap, but he did not intend to sell in large quantities. Also, he didn’t allow it to be sold in the “Adventurer’s Guild” exchange list, and the price would never drop due to its rarity.
It’s not that he’s stingy, but the back-to-city scrolls and spatial backpacks were not ordinary artifacts. It was also a symbol of honor, and only the best adventurers were qualified to have them.
……
Another few minutes passed, and someone already shouted out 250.000 source crystals. At this time, the competitors were only located in the third-floor chamber …… These people were also representatives sent by the major powers in order to take out tens of thousands of source crystals in one breath.
The hunters in the first-floor hall, completely reduced to the audience. They, on one hand, were eyeing the two divine artifacts. On the other hand, they watched in awe at the major power’s strong financial strength.
Another voice came out, “I bid three hundred thousand!”
To the crowd’s surprise, the voice did not come from the overhead box but in the corner of the first-floor hall.
The dignified young man stood up, his eyes swept over, seemingly with disdain.
“Spatial backpack and return scrolls, we are bound to get them. I hope you all give me some, to this Wu……”
Some people in the box snickered.
But suddenly, from the youth, a majestic aura exploded, sweeping the whole room in an instant.
Those who were close passed out on the spot, and the hunters who were standing a little farther away felt as if they were strangled in their throat, their face gone white and couldn’t say anything.
The chambers from which the major powers reside also fell into a silence, everyone’s face was gloomy, their hands trembling and sweat sliding down from their forehead.
It is the aura of the 13th level of awakening!
Like a flood of beasts pressed on everyone’s heart!
Even if they were angry and resentful, at this time, no one dared to speak up and touch the brow of this powerful person.
……
Inside chamber number one.
Tang Yu frowned, very unhappy. He was hesitating whether to take action himself or to order Xiao Li to take out the trouble maker.
The figure of Yan Dingtian steeply appeared, hanging in the mid-air of the auction house, “Tch, who dares to make trouble in the Tree Shade-“
His eyes swept like electric light, directly locking onto the fourth-era awakened person with surname Wu, and his source power condensed into a giant hand to grab down towards that person.
Yan Dingtian unleashed his transcendent power!
The Fourth-era Hunter named Wu pissed himself in fear!
He was just a bit impatient and grumpy, and he didn’t want to rob the auction house. He could afford 300,000 source crystals, but he never thought that the elder transcendent would stay in the auction house as a guard.
And that the transcendent himself was the one who took action?
The fourth-age Hunter surnamed Wu was being carried by the source power like a chicken, and at once, he was indignant with shame.
Tang Yu was very satisfied with how it all went.
‘I think I worked so hard, this week’s performance evaluation, this week’s salary, I should be able to get some more, right?’ Yan Dingtiang thought.
……
Without the troublemaker, the other bidders continued to raise their bids, the process was absolutely fair and just. No one dares to say give me so-and-so a face. If you could use a threat to silence the competitor, then what do you need the source crystal for?
The three spatial backpacks and five return scrolls were finally bought by an unknown bidder in the third-floor box for 365.000 source crystals.
The auction came to an end, and the hunters in the venue left one after another.
Some of them sighed because they lost their treasures by a little bit of source crystal, while others had a good harvest and were smiling.
As one of the most high-profile figures in this large-scale auction, The fourth-age powerhouse surnamed Wu was handcuffed with special bracelets and anklets. He was then escorted away by a few experts from the guard corps, enjoying the feeling of being in the limelight once again.
……
Box number one.
Tang Yu was also ready to leave through the spatial channel. Suddenly, a sharp and piercing alarm sounded in his mind. He was stunned as the territory map unfolded in front of him.
The coverage of the level 6 territory had expanded a lot more. If the expansion continued like this, in the future, when the level 8 and 9 territories were reached, it was not possible to cover Lin Dong within the territory as well.
However, at this time, on the north side of the territory, a dozen large red dots appeared.
Only a dozen, but since he got the system, the alarm sounded the loudest!
Even the map border, also flooded with dangerous red dots …… Tang Yu knew the situation was urgent, and he did not have time to think more and immediately connected Nancy and Yilian through the contract. Tang Yu ordered puppet guard No. 2, who was staying in the northern court, to immediately rush back through the teleportation array.
The No.1 and the three Nightmare puppets were positioned in the Tree Shade for safety measures.
An order was immediately conveyed to all departments through the mental power transmission crystal ball.
The members of the Airplane corps that remained in the territory immediately boarded and took their respective positions, keeping the airplanes in a state ready for battle.
Guard regiment, investigation regiment, cavalry regiment … and other major regiments were also stood by on each of their posts.
Like a huge and precise machine, the entire Tree Shade Shelter was running at a high level.
……
The auction just broke up.
The ear-piercing alarm sounded, and on the street, a team of Hunters in black combat uniforms ran by, informing the people to enter the refuge area.
The hunters were still wondering, for a good reason, how come they were suddenly at war?
‘Even if it’s a level 5 demonic wave, it shouldn’t be able to break through Tree Shade’s walls, which are as rigid as mountains, right?’
They asked anxiously, but even the Hunters of the major regiments were unsure why they knew that the battle-readiness level was high.
The confusion did not last long. The Hunters suddenly felt that they had a heavyweight pressing on their hearts, making them gasp for breath.
The noisy street was instantly silenced.
Some people clutched their chests and half-kneeled on the ground.
Some clenched their teeth, trembling, looking into the distance.
A dozen figures, like demon gods, walked towards them.
Suffocation.
Despair.
Floating in the heart of every person.
The aura of level 13th awakening made them felt as if they were in front of the flooding beasts, but now, they felt like the whole sky … was going to collapse!
……
Several kilometers away.
Fourteen figures were flying fast.
The abyss-like aura covered the sky as if even space and time were stopped.
This time, in order to annihilate Tree Shade, the two clans joined forces, a total of fourteen mortals, six of them from the Ghost Hand clan, eight from the White Bone clan.
The Ghost Hand clan sent their full force, leaving only one ordinary mortal to sit in the secret realm.
Flying in the forefront were two Ghost Hand clan elders and one White Bone clan elder.
“This time, our two clans will join forces, and we will definitely be able to kill the Children of the World, no matter how many there are.” One of them said,
The Ghost Hand clan elder who had fought with Nancy, smiled, “Three of us are senior mortals, the Tree Shade only had one person with the same level, two against one, or even three against one, even if he’s the Children of the World-“
As he spoke, the golden wheat field, the tall and lofty black city wall, had appeared in their eyes.
The Ghost Hand clan elder flew up and gathered endless devil flames, “First let me give these weak humans a gift!”
