Saint Emperor Devourer of Heaven

The news that Yan Qingcheng was going to sell the Blazing Sun Flower Seeds at Juba斋 (Gathering Treasures Pavilion) caused a sensation throughout the Southern Domain.

People began to discuss this matter.

For a time, it became the most popular topic in this city.

At the same time, people's hearts were also filled with doubts.

First, why did Yan Qingcheng choose to auction Saint-level resources at Juba斋? Second, why would she take out such a peerless treasure for auction, and choose the Southern Domain Ancient City instead of the largest city in the Eastern Wilderness—the Barren City!

Moreover, why would the head of a Dominator-level force put such resources up for auction?

You should know that what existences of that level crave most are such resources!

These were all like mysteries, making people feel puzzled.

Even the people at Juba斋 themselves were deeply shocked.

They gathered their top executives, held a meeting, and looked at each other in dismay.

Because no one had seen Yan Qingcheng, had contact with her, or even received the Blazing Sun Flower Seeds.

"Since none of us have had contact with the Yan Family Head, why would she announce that she wants to auction the Saint-grade Blazing Sun Flower Seeds at our Juba斋? And even say that we are fully responsible for this matter?"

The First Pavilion Master looked solemn. This matter was too strange, making her feel puzzled.

"This matter is indeed strange…"

Several Pavilion Masters of Juba斋, as well as the Chief Steward and Stewards, were all confused.

"I wonder if the Yan Family Head is still in the Southern Domain Ancient City…"

The First Pavilion Master frowned slightly. She was a very beautiful and aloof woman, from the hidden Ice Cloud Tower Sect in the Northern Origin Continent of the Five Great Continents.

"I apologize, this matter was too sudden, and I didn't have time to inform you all."

Just as everyone was filled with doubts, Su Xiaoxiao appeared.

She came to the council hall and took out the flower seeds surrounded by the Blazing Sun Fire: "The Yan Family Head suddenly came to me and asked our Juba斋 to auction the Blazing Sun Flower Seeds. I wonder what you all think?"

"So it's the Little Saintess of the Medicine King Sect!"

Several Pavilion Masters were very polite.

Although they were the people in power here, their status and position in their respective sects were far inferior to that of a Saintess.

Su Xiaoxiao, as the Saintess of the Medicine King Sect, naturally had a very noble status.

"We really can't guess what the Yan Family Head intends to do by doing this…" The First Pavilion Master asked, "What did the Yan Family Head say to the Saintess?"

Su Xiaoxiao shook her head: "The Yan Family Head didn't say much, she just handed this Blazing Sun Flower Seed to me, saying that it would be auctioned at our Juba斋, and then she left. Please discuss whether or not to proceed with the auction."

"The auction is definitely going to happen. We have no way to refuse. The other party is the head of the Enchanting Eye Clan! No matter what the Yan Family Head intends to do, it seems unlikely that she would set up a trap against our Juba斋. With her status, she would definitely not do such a thing; perhaps she has other intentions. Let's not guess her thoughts. How about setting the time for seven days later?"

"Yes, seven days is enough time to spread the news throughout the world."

Everyone agreed with the First Pavilion Master's decision.

For this auction, it was necessary to fully convey the news.

If the time was set too short, it might make Yan Qingcheng misunderstand that the forces behind their Juba斋 wanted to bid for it themselves, and deliberately set the auction date hastily, so that other forces would not have time to arrive.

"If it's decided, we should announce the specific auction time to the public now. I think there are already many people gathered in front of our Juba斋 to inquire about the news."

"I will go myself."

The First Pavilion Master got up and left, and then appeared in the sky above Juba斋.

She was wearing an ice-blue dress, with ice-blue True Qi light flowing all over her body, giving her a transcendent and ethereal temperament, like a fairy who does not eat the food of the mortal world.

This was the unique temperament of the Ice Cloud Tower Sect who cultivated the Ice Muscle Jade Bone Technique.

"Look, it's the First Pavilion Master of Juba斋!"

Many people had gathered in front of Juba斋.

For a time, everyone's eyes turned to the sky.

"Greetings, First Pavilion Master of Juba斋! May I ask, when will your Juba齋 auction the Saint-grade Blazing Sun Flower Seeds?"

These people's eyes were very fiery.

"Everyone, after our discussion, we have decided to officially start the auction at noon seven days later. At that time, we hope that your sects or families will come to support us."

"Seven days later?"

Many people visibly breathed a sigh of relief.

They were really worried that the time would be set too tightly, so that their sect's high-level officials would not be able to arrive in time, and miss this opportunity.

For a time, everyone dispersed and immediately contacted their sect and family high-level officials, and reported the news.

"Saint-grade rare treasure! The people at headquarters should be very interested…" The First Tower Master of Tianjing Tower stood on a distant阁楼 (閣樓, a multi-storied building used as a storage space), looking in the direction of Juba斋, and muttered to himself, "This Tower Master must report this matter immediately!"

"Saint-level resources, those are things that top Saint Sect experts urgently need, and can be used to break through to the Half-Saint Realm, which is difficult for even one person to break through in ten thousand years, and truly stand at the pinnacle of the world!"

…

In the Southern Domain Ancient City, people from the major forces contacted their sects and families as soon as possible.

Before long, the news that the Southern Domain Ancient City's Juba斋 was about to auction Saint-level resources had spread almost throughout the entire world.

Dominator-level forces, Quasi-Dominator-level forces, and some existences that claimed they were not forces but organizations, such as the Hunter Guild, began to prepare.

They were naturally wealthy.

However, the Saint-grade Blazing Sun Flower Seeds would be snatched by forces all over the world, and the price would probably be ridiculously high!

If they were not prepared and went in a hurry, they would mostly only be spectators.

Every force that aspired to obtain the Blazing Sun Flower Seeds was very clear about this.

Now, the Southern Domain Ancient City had become the focus of attention of forces all over the world!

…

In the small courtyard of Juba斋, Jun Wuxie was trying to break through to the peak of the Extreme Realm, and did not care about the auction.

He had no intention of thinking about what price the Blazing Sun Flower Seeds could fetch at auction, he only knew that this kind of peerless treasure would definitely not be cheap. The funds obtained at that time would definitely be more than enough to purchase the ten Life Blood Pills he needed.

The auction would not be held until seven days later, which also meant that he would not be able to obtain the Life Blood Pills and open the Gate of Wonders until seven days later.

He couldn't waste time in between.

He was now feeling more and more urgent.

That Nan Sheng gave him an extremely dangerous signal!

Although the other party was just a child in his teens, his family was very terrifying. It was a Quasi-Dominator-level force, and his brother Nan Huang was also a very difficult character to deal with!

Most importantly, why did Nan Sheng have such words and deeds when he saw Yue Yao for the first time?

Was he fascinated by Yue Yao's beauty?

He felt that this was definitely not the reason.

Although Yue Yao was alluring and beautiful, her appearance was at a peerless level.

But a little brat in his teens would not have such thoughts.

"Perhaps I shouldn't have brought Yao'er out, but it's not safe for her to stay in the sect either. It's difficult to guarantee that the people from the Soul Hunting Hall won't target her…"

He thought of the runes that appeared in Nan Sheng's eyes when he looked at Yue Yao. That should be a kind of瞳术 (tóngshù, pupil technique).

He now suspected that Nan Sheng had seen some secrets of Yue Yao, just like the old bald donkey from the Great Brahma Zen Sect's World Honored One faction.

"I hope Nan Sheng hasn't told his family elders about this yet. In that case, as long as I kill him, I can protect Yue Yao's secret, otherwise…"

He thought a lot and had already made a decision.

Killing Nan Sheng might not be difficult, but if Nan Sheng died, he would definitely suffer the Yunling Nan Family's crazy revenge.

He must not only have the power to protect himself, but also have the strength to protect Yue Yao!

"I must break through to the Great Perfection of the Cave Heaven Extreme Realm as soon as possible, and then successfully open the Gate of Wonders. My strength should be greatly improved!"

As he thought this, he took out the only three Lower-Grade Spirit Crystal Stones on his body and began to refine them.

Spirit Crystal Stones were resources that people in the Star River Realm would use.

Because the spiritual energy contained within was extremely pure, and the spiritual energy was extremely majestic, even Star River Realm warriors could only slowly refine and absorb them. If they were a little impatient, they might have their meridians torn apart by the spiritual energy, or even have their Cave Heaven burst!

He was now at the peak of the Tenth Transformation of the Cave Heaven Realm.

Using Lower-Grade Spirit Crystal Stones to cultivate, the purity of the spiritual energy was completely sufficient. The quality of the blood essence transformed after refining and absorption reached the highest level corresponding to the current realm.

These blood essence, releasing blood energy, constantly nourished the flesh and bones, and gathered towards the Cave Heaven.

In just two days.

He repeatedly compressed and refined the blood energy in the Cave Heaven to the extreme that he could currently achieve, and the blood energy was so full that the Cave Heaven began to expand.

After completing these basic preparations, he directly entered the Eternal Life Shrine and stepped into the Tomb of Weapons, using the intention of weapons to forge himself and attack the Cave Heaven Extreme Realm.

After several impacts, the first two failed.

He stopped at a critical moment, failing to break through the shackles.

Fortunately, his physical body was strong enough, and the backlash only caused all his internal organs and meridians to shatter, without causing him to explode and die.

Even so, it made him sweat all over and feel lingering fear.

After repairing his internal organs and meridians, and restoring his energy, he continued to try to break through for the third time!

No matter how dangerous it was, he had no hesitation!

He must enter the Cave Heaven Extreme Realm today to improve his strength!

He didn't have time to break through slowly!

Nan Sheng was watching covetously outside, and even the Nan Family might already know Yue Yao's secret.

Once he left Juba齋 and left the Southern Domain Ancient City, danger would come!
