Chapter 2309 Tongming Daozu
"You bastard..." In the distance, Wushan Xia, who had been bidding against him, showed anger on his face.
Clearly, this price has exceeded his limit.
He wanted to inflate the price and keep raising it, but he quickly dismissed the idea after it came to him.
Because he knew that the Eternal Pavilion would not tolerate such behavior.
Thinking this, he had no choice but to sit down dejectedly.
At this point, the woman on stage asked several times to confirm that no one else was bidding, and then announced that the deal was done.
hum!
An old man from the Eternal Pavilion presented the Vajra Pestle to the young master of the Dragon Elephant Demon Clan.
The latter took the vajra, a hint of excitement appearing on his face.
"Very good, the first step of the plan has been a success!" he murmured.
As he spoke, he glanced coldly in Luo Tian's direction, his eyes filled with an inexplicable chill.
The auction for Wangu Pavilion is still ongoing.
Next, several Dao artifacts at the Breakthrough Realm and some rare immortal medicines were auctioned off.
Almost all of them were bought by those mysterious people whose faces were never seen in the private rooms on the second floor.
The magical artifacts and elixirs offered by Wangu Pavilion are all rare and top-quality items.
Therefore, the bidding process is extremely fierce.
One of the top-tier Dao artifacts, in particular, was even sold for a terrifyingly high price.
It truly broadened everyone's horizons.
The only exception is a special elixir, the Nine Nether Mysterious Grass.
After this elixir appeared, Luo Tian immediately made a offer.
Surprisingly, after Luo Tian made his bid, no one else in the room competed with him.
That makes sense, as everyone is well aware of how wealthy Luo Tian is.
Competing with him is futile; you'll only create another enemy for no reason.
Why bother?
Therefore, Luo Tian acquired this immortal herb at an extremely low price, which was a pleasant surprise.
Just after Luo Tian put away the Nine Nether Profound Void Grass...
hum!
Suddenly, runes lit up on the high platform in the hall.
"Huh?" Upon seeing this, the crowd below the stage made a commotion and all looked towards the stage.
Only then did they realize that the runes in front of the high platform had already intertwined to form a powerful array.
Around the formation, there was a Breaking Dao Realm expert from the Eternal Pavilion stationed on each side.
boom!
Immediately afterwards, a powerful pressure emanated from the entrance of the auction hall.
Everyone looked in the direction of the sound and saw a black-armored knight step into the hall at some point.
"That's... Venerable Black Flame?" Someone recognized the newcomer at a glance and exclaimed in surprise.
With the appearance of the Black Flame Venerable, the entire hall began to stir.
Even the second floor, which had been quiet for a long time, seemed to be starting to stir.
It wasn't because of the Black Flame Venerable himself, but because everyone knew that when the Black Flame Venerable appeared, the real highlight of the auction would begin.
"Ladies and gentlemen!" On the high platform, the woman glanced around before continuing, "The next three items are the three most important treasures of this Eternal Pavilion Auction!"
Upon hearing this, the crowd below was instantly taken aback.
Even Luo Tian couldn't help but look towards the stage.
"Could there be a Heavenly Law Seal?" Luo Tian asked nervously, his eyes fixed on the stage.
At that moment, the woman coughed lightly and said, "Next up is the first item for auction!"
She clapped her hands lightly, and behind her, four experts at the Breaking Dao Realm, carrying a dilapidated stone pillar, walked onto the high platform.
Black energy continuously spreads from the cracked stone pillar, but after leaving a certain range, it is blocked by the runes on the pillar and forced back into it, repeating the cycle endlessly, never able to dissipate.
However, anyone could see that these runes were nearing their limit.
Before long, maybe a year or two, maybe the next moment, it will be completely corroded and penetrated by the black energy.
With the appearance of this stone pillar, the atmosphere in the entire hall instantly became eerie.
"A treasure..." Upon seeing the stone pillar, the young master of the Dragon Elephant Demon Clan trembled all over, as if his blood was being drawn by something and was about to boil at any moment.
puff!
Among the crowd, a boy immediately spat out a mouthful of blood and then fainted on the spot.
However, the people from Wangu Pavilion seemed to have been prepared. Two people immediately came to the young man's side, one channeling immortal energy and the other feeding him pills, thus saving him.
"Fool!" Upon seeing this, the young master of the Dragon Elephant Demon Clan snorted disdainfully and turned his gaze back to the stone pillar.
At this moment, the woman on the high platform said loudly, "Everyone, please do not try to touch this stone pillar with your immortal energy, otherwise you will suffer a backlash!"
Upon hearing this, many of those who had been eager to try their luck withdrew their auras.
At the same time, an old man squinted at the stone pillar on the platform and asked, "May I ask, young lady, what exactly is this item up for auction?"
Upon hearing this, everyone around cast curious glances at him.
Only the young master of the Dragon Elephant Demon Clan seemed to know everything.
Upon hearing the question, the woman on the stage replied, "This stone pillar was found at the site where the Tongming Dao Ancestor perished!"
The old man who asked the question was taken aback at first, but then he suddenly realized something and exclaimed in shock, "The Dao Ancestor of Enlightenment? The Dao Ancestor of Enlightenment, a powerhouse at the Great Dao Realm?"
With his exclamation, the people around him finally realized what was happening and exclaimed in surprise as well.
“That’s right, it’s that sir!” the woman nodded and said.
In an instant, the entire hall was in an uproar.
Only Luo Tian, standing in the distance, looked completely bewildered.
"Tongming Daozu? Is this person very famous?" He looked at Dongfang Li beside him with a puzzled expression.
"Huh? You don't know?" Dongfang Li looked at Luo Tian suspiciously.
But Luo Tian shook his head.
Dongfang Li took a deep breath and hurriedly explained to Luo Tian, "This Tongming Dao Ancestor is a Great Dao Realm expert of our human race! Moreover, he is the most respected Great Dao Realm expert among the human race!"
"Why?" Luo Tian asked puzzled.
Dongfang Li sighed, "Because hundreds of thousands of years ago, a heaven-defying demon emperor appeared among the demon race. I don't know what kind of opportunity he obtained, but he actually achieved the Great Dao Realm!"
"This Demon Emperor, who is at the Great Dao Realm, is clearly not satisfied with the status of the demon race. He wants to unify the world and turn all five heavenly realms into the territory of his demon race!"
"So he launched a war against the demon race, slaughtering countless human cultivators along the way, leaving rivers of blood! At that time, the five holy cities had all suffered heavy losses and had no time to spare, and for a time the entire human race faced a desperate situation!"
"At this moment, the Dao Ancestor Tongming stepped forward and fought the Demon Emperor alone. In the end, he fought a bloody battle with him in the Abyss of the Heavens, perishing together with him, thus saving the entire human world!"
