Transmigrated Scoundrel's Exchange System

As the terrifying face would slowly recede into the darkness, Grand Diviner Xiong could make out the creature's body. It had a humanoid form, draped in black and white garments that seemed to both conceal and reveal its true nature. The black habit and veil shrouded its head and body, contrasting sharply with the white wimple and collar that framed the face. This juxtaposition of light and dark created an unsettling and ominous appearance, sending shivers down the Grand Diviner's spine. The habit was often tattered and filthy, serving as a testament to the creature's demonic nature and the corruption that seemed to emanate from it.

As the creature revealed itself, its elongated and skeletal hands came into view, with long, bony fingers tipped with sharp, blackened nails. These hands appeared to be capable of inflicting great pain and suffering, further emphasizing the malevolence of the being.

The creature seemed to exist within a miasma of darkness and decay, its very presence causing an unsettling chill to pervade the air. Its supernatural abilities, such as levitation and teleportation, only served to heighten the otherworldly terror it invoked in those who beheld it.

Over the months that followed, this monstrous being continued to torment Grand Diviner Xiong, disrupting his cultivation and haunting his every waking moment. Despite his immense skills in divination, he was unable to uncover the source of the creature or determine its true purpose. As his patience wore thin and his frustration mounted, the Grand Diviner dedicated himself even more fervently to the task of unraveling the mystery of this sinister apparition.

If anyone from Han Cai's past life saw this creature, they would immediately realize it was The Nun from the Conjuring movies. This creature would torment the Grand Diviner all night, and then it would disappear. The Grand Diviner would spend all day trying to figure out what the creature was and who sent it, but he could never find the source. He was losing patience.

Every night, the creature would disturb him, preventing him from cultivating or doing anything productive. The constant harassment took a toll on Grand Diviner Xiong's mental state, and his cultivation progress had slowed significantly. He desperately searched for answers, consulting ancient texts and seeking guidance from other diviners, but to no avail.

While the grand diviner of the divine mountain sect was being tormented.

The city of Jadesky was abuzz with excitement as the much-awaited auction day approached. In anticipation of the high-profile event, Wu Xian of the Aurelian Dragons made preparations to welcome a new guest at the Shen Guest House. This esteemed guest was none other than the Azure Messenger, an extraordinary cultivator of the Spirit Harmony Realm. The Azure Messenger was a striking figure, standing tall and lean with sharp, angular facial features. His eyes seemed capable of penetrating the very soul of anyone they fell upon. His long, flowing azure hair shimmered like a star-filled night sky, and his cultivation aura exuded an unmistakable air of elegance and power.

Simultaneously, at the Huang Guest House, Zhang Feng was busy welcoming his own esteemed guest, a cultivator whose skill and cultivation level matched that of the Azure Messenger. This impressive individual was named Xue Lian, a formidable cultivator who was well-respected in his own right. As the day of the auction drew closer, Wu Xian and Zhang Feng exchanged crucial information about the upcoming auction, which featured a Divine-grade weapon, an item that had captured the interest of powerful factions from all corners of the kingdom.

The Crimson Serpents had not initially intended to send a cultivator of the Spirit Harmony Realm to the Mystic Sky Auction. However, the availability of a divine-grade weapon at the auction forced them to change their plans. They understood that if they failed to send a powerful representative, they could lose the weapon to an opposing faction, who might then wield it against them. Thus, the Crimson Serpents found themselves with no choice but to ensure they had a strong contender to secure the precious weapon for their cause.

As the Auction drew near, the Khaleesi Auction House announced that it would not take place in the capital, but rather in a town three hundred kilometers away. The Khaleesi merchants had purchased the entire town and renamed it Khaleesi Town, reconstructing it entirely for their anniversary auction. People were awed and impressed by the wealth that the Khaleesi Auction House displayed, and some even began to wonder if the Khaleesi merchants were richer than the royal family.

As the much-anticipated day of the auction approached, aristocrats and nobles from various cities across the kingdom gathered in Khaleesi Town to participate in the grand event. The Khaleesi merchants were very generous, providing every guest with complimentary luxurious accommodations and spirit food. The town was positively humming with excitement, and the majestic auction building, specifically erected for this exceptional occasion, proudly towered at the center of the town.

As evening fell on the day of the auction, a steady stream of guests began pouring into the expansive venue. The first arrivals consisted of general aristocrats and nobles, eagerly anticipating the spectacular items up for bid. Soon after, members of the influential Shen and Huang families made their entrance. The Aurelian Dragons, cunningly disguised as the prestigious Azure family, attended the auction alongside the Azure Messenger and other key members of their faction. Similarly, the Crimson Serpents, adopting the guise of the wealthy Crimson family, also joined the event, accompanied by their Spirit Harmony cultivator and various members of their powerful faction.

Finally, the members of the royal family arrived in style, led by none other than Crown Prince himself. The auction house had truly pulled out all the stops for this extraordinary event, with the grand building designed to comfortably accommodate over ten thousand guests. Luxurious rooms were reserved for VIP guests, such as the royals, as well as the Azure and Crimson families, who had shelled out a considerable sum for their exclusive and opulent accommodations. In contrast, the general audience found their places in the seating area below, eagerly awaiting the commencement of the auction.
