At this moment, he suddenly opened his eyes, a glint of light flashing in them, and said unhurriedly, "Tianwaitian uses the Heavenly Dao Token as collateral, valued at five million taels."
The renowned reputation of the "Heavenly Decree" was known to everyone present.
It can mobilize the powerful forces of the three branch headquarters of the Outer Heavens, and its value far exceeds that of gold; one could even say it possesses a "Heavenly Dao Token".
This is equivalent to having a formidable backing.
As soon as Cangwuzi said this, the venue erupted in excitement again. Everyone whispered among themselves, speculating about how the auction would end.
Chapter 403 The Auction in Chaos!
Just as everyone was whispering and discussing,
A deafening shout suddenly rang out, like a thunderclap, shattering the tense yet orderly atmosphere in the venue.
Meng Lang was never one to be patient.
At this moment, watching the bidding price soar like a kite with a broken string,
Touching his empty purse again, he felt powerless and resentful.
This sense of frustration ignited his long-suppressed anger, making it impossible for him to suppress his inner rage.
His eyes were bloodshot, and he suddenly stood up from his seat.
His aura burst forth like a surging tide.
He kicked the chair in front of him hard; the wooden chair, under the force of the kick...
With a loud thud, it crashed to the ground, startling everyone around, who instinctively stepped back.
However, Meng Lang's actions did not stop there; he waved his hand...
He picked up the nine-ringed sword beside him, and the copper rings on the hilt struck each other, producing a series of crisp yet somewhat chilling sounds.
Holding the nine-ringed saber, Meng Lang strode forward like an enraged beast, charging toward the auction stage.
With each step, the ground seemed to tremble slightly.
In the blink of an eye, he had rushed to the front of the auction stage, his arm muscles bulging high.
He used all his strength to slam the nine-ringed sword heavily onto the stage.
In an instant, the blade collided with the tabletop, sparking dazzling flashes.
The powerful shockwave generated by the blade was like a hurricane passing through, sending objects flying wherever it went.
The exquisite three-foot jade plate that was originally placed on the stage...
The impact of this shockwave shattered it instantly into countless fragments, which scattered across the ground with a "crash".
The precious jade slip that everyone was vying for was also swept up by the shockwave and flew into the air.
"You're asking for death!" A sharp shout pierced the chaotic scene like a sword.
Jing Ni kept a close eye on every move happening in the arena from beginning to end.
Upon seeing the jade slip was lost, his eyes instantly turned icy cold.
Her figure flashed, and she disappeared from the spot like a ghost, appearing below the jade slip the next moment.
The long sword in his hand moved like a serpent emerging from its hole, suddenly trembling as its tip swept across the air, drawing a dazzling arc.
The sharp sword energy, like an invisible hand, steadily supported the falling jade slip, keeping it suspended in mid-air without falling at all.
Almost at the same time, Yan Lingji also reacted quickly.
She gently raised her delicate hand, a dangerous smile playing on her lips.
With a deft flick of her wrist, three crimson chains of fire shot out like living serpents.
Carrying scorching heat, it left fiery red afterimages in the air as it headed straight for Meng Lang.
Wherever the fire chain went, the air seemed to ignite, crackling and popping.
Upon seeing this, Meng Lang was startled and had no choice but to abandon his plan to seize the jade slip.
Wielding his nine-ringed sword to parry the fire chains, he was forced to retreat repeatedly, heading towards a corner of the venue.
In another corner of the venue, Shen Mo sat quietly.
Long, slender fingers gently plucked the strings of the guqin, and melodious music echoed throughout the venue.
However, just as the scene descended into chaos, his expression suddenly turned cold.
With a forceful press of the fingertips, the music suddenly became rapid, like thunder before a storm, filled with a chilling atmosphere.
All seven strings vibrated simultaneously, and then countless tiny ice needles burst forth from them.
Like a swarm of locusts flashing with cold light, they flew straight at Wei Changxuan's face.
Faced with this sudden attack, Wei Changxuan remained calm and composed.
He still wore that calm and composed smile on his face.
He calmly waved his folding fan, the fan unfolding like a sturdy shield.
The ice needles struck the fan surface, producing a series of crisp, melodious "ding-ding" sounds.
However, they were unable to break through the fan's defenses, nor could they harm Wei Changxuan in the slightest.
Just when everyone thought the attack had been neutralized,
A dazzling golden light with dragon patterns suddenly appeared from Wei Changxuan's sleeve.
The ice needles that were originally shooting out in all directions suddenly froze in mid-air, as if time had stopped at that moment.
It turned out that the "Human Emperor's Qi" that Sikong Yan had injected beforehand had taken effect; this mysterious and powerful force...
Like an invisible hand, it controlled the situation on the field.
This sudden chaos has become even more perplexing.
Chapter 404 Azure Sky Nine Palaces Sword Manual!
Just as everyone was discussing this, a loud shout suddenly rang out.
Meng Lang was never one to remain calm, and now, seeing the price soaring...
He was penniless and unable to compete, and he could no longer suppress his anger.
He suddenly stood up and kicked over the chair in front of him with a loud crash.
Immediately afterwards, wielding his nine-ringed broadsword, he strode towards the auction stage and slammed the sword heavily onto it.
The powerful shockwave generated by the blade was like a gust of wind.
The shockwave instantly shattered the three-foot-long jade plate on the platform, and the precious jade slip was sent flying into the air.
"You're courting death!" Jing Ni, who had been watching the commotion, turned cold upon seeing this and shouted.
His figure flashed like a ghost and instantly appeared below the jade slip.
With a flick of her wrist, she drew a dazzling arc with her longsword.
It actually used its sharp sword energy to steadily support the jade slip, preventing it from falling even an inch.
At the same time, Yan Lingji also acted swiftly, she waved her jade hand,
Three chains of fire shot out like serpents, heading straight for Meng Lang and forcing him into a corner of the venue.
"Young Master Wei, you have quite the skill." Shen Mo had been sitting quietly to the side, playing the guqin.
At this moment, the music suddenly became more urgent, as if a storm was approaching.
Seven strings simultaneously shot out ice needles, like streaks of cold light, aimed straight at Wei Changxuan's face.
Wei Changxuan remained calm and composed, waving his folding fan. The fan unfolded like a shield, blocking all the ice needles.
The ice needles struck the fan, producing a series of crisp "ding-ding" sounds, but they couldn't harm Wei Changxuan in the slightest.
The royal token in his sleeve suddenly emitted a golden light with dragon patterns, and the ice needles froze in mid-air. This was the "human emperor's energy" that Sikong Yan had injected in advance.
The atmosphere inside the venue was extremely tense, as if even the air itself had frozen.
A glint flashed in Lu Shaoyou's eyes, and he suddenly gripped the Qingxiao Sword at his waist.
The sword trembled slightly like a dragon's roar, as if responding to its master's call.
In an instant, he moved like lightning, his sword flashing, the Azure Sky Sword transforming into nine illusory figures in his hand.
Each strike carried a sharp sword aura, creating a wondrous resonance with the "Azure Sky Nine Palaces" sword manual engraved on the jade slip.
Meng Lang brandished his mad knife, each move ruthless and vicious, like a mad tiger.
However, Lu Shaoyou's twelve cyan sword shadows darted and intertwined like serpents throughout the venue.
Asking for flowers
Each sword strike was incredibly precise, completely neutralizing Meng Lang's seemingly flawless Mad Blade techniques.
Disassemble it step by step.
Veins bulged on Meng Lang's forehead. He was both shocked and furious. He swung his knife faster and faster, but he could not break through the sword shadows' defense.
"What a magnificent view of the Nine Palaces of Azure Sky!" Wei Changxuan exclaimed loudly, his eyes gleaming.
He quickly formed hand seals, and the primordial true energy frantically condensed in his palms, gradually forming a rotating golden wheel.
The golden wheel pattern shone brightly, projecting its light onto the jade slip, and the previously obscure and incomprehensible sword moves suddenly became clear and understandable.
Wei Changxuan was overjoyed and instantly understood the secret:
The "Azure Sky Nine Palaces" sword manual requires the primordial energy as a guide to truly understand its meaning.
Just then, the curtain of the sedan chair Yueyao was riding in moved automatically without any wind.
Her beautiful eyes widened as she stared at the gleaming golden wheel pattern on Wei Changxuan's chest, and she couldn't help but gasp softly:
"The Primordial Scripture! So the Immortal's Book requires primordial energy to activate..."
The sound, though soft, resonated like a thunderclap in the silent hall.
Chapter 405 The underground palace trembled!
Cangwuzi's face turned pale instantly, and he was terrified. He hurriedly sent a telepathic message to Yueyao:
"Young lady, please don't make a sound! Before Qingxiaozi shattered the void, he said..."
