Primordial Era: The Holy Maiden Shiji, a woman of exceptional talent and beauty

Shiji smiled and said, "Brother, you really have a good taste."

The black-robed man responded, "I have nothing to do, so I learned how to make tea and boil water to kill time."

Shiji took another sip of the tea and felt a strong spiritual energy rushing into his body. He was shocked. He really didn't expect that the tea brewed by the man in black robes would contain such a strong spiritual energy. It was incredible.

"As expected, this tea comes from a mysterious place like the Dark Abyss. It is truly extraordinary." Shiji secretly admired in her heart.

Not long after, the auction officially kicked off.

The first 10 lots to be auctioned were all very unique, including some ancient beads that looked mysterious.

Shiji discovered that these auction items were indeed very precious and each one was worth a lot of money.

"Everyone, please be quiet." At this time, an old man slowly walked to the stage.

The old man was short and fat with a thin face. He looked like an old monster who had experienced countless years.

He is a quasi-emperor and serves as an elder in this auction house.

The old man cleared his throat and continued, "I believe everyone present has heard of the next auction item."

"This is a magical herb that has the magical effect of cleansing the marrow and clearing the meridians. After taking this magical herb, it can change the aptitude for cultivation and improve the talent for cultivation."

"Starting price: 50,000 immortal stones!"

As soon as the old man finished speaking, fierce bidding sounded from the audience. The price rose rapidly and soon broke through the 100,000 immortal stones mark.

However, this price did not last long and gradually stabilized.

Finally, this magical herb was successfully bought by an old woman for 170,000 immortal stones.

Then, several more treasures were auctioned off. Although they were all rare treasures, they did not arouse much interest.

When the last item was auctioned, Shiji's eyes suddenly froze.

The item for auction was actually an egg.

A giant egg the size of a palm, surrounded by wisps of demonic energy, as if it contains endless weirdness and mystery.

Shiji even vaguely heard the wailing of evil spirits, as if some horrible existence was sealed in the egg.

"What kind of egg is this?" Shiji couldn't help but ask.

The old man smiled and explained: "It is said that this egg was born in the depths of chaos."

"An egg born from the depths of chaos? Then what is its function?" Shiji asked puzzledly.

"It is said that this egg can hatch a powerful alien beast, but we don't know the details. After all, our strength is limited, and we dare not go deep into the depths of chaos to explore the origin of this egg." The old man said helplessly.

"Oh? It's so magical? Haven't you tried this egg?" Shiji looked at the old man in surprise and asked.

The old man smiled bitterly and said, "Of course we tried, but this egg is too strange. Even if we try our best, we can't shake it at all. So, we can only choose to settle for the second best and choose to seal it with the array pattern."

Hearing this, Shiji suddenly realized.

"I see. Even though you sealed the egg, it still continues to release a sinister and terrifying aura that envelopes the entire auction house. After absorbing a large amount of evil energy, the egg has become increasingly abnormal."

"Oh? Such a thing actually happened? Is there really something terrible inside that egg?" Shiji asked.

The old man pondered for a moment and said, "It is rumored that this is a foreign egg produced from the corpse of a great emperor in ancient times, but whether it is true or not is impossible to verify."

"So that's how it is." Shiji nodded slightly, becoming more and more curious about this giant egg.

The old man then told many interesting stories about the auction, and then the auction continued.

There were a total of forty-nine items in this auction, but Shiji didn't like many of them, so she simply closed her eyes and rested.

"Everyone." Suddenly, the host's voice echoed in the auction house.

Everyone looked up and saw a graceful and charming figure walking towards them.

Many people exclaimed, with fiery light flashing in their eyes, and all their attention was focused on the charming and alluring woman on the steps.

This woman is the owner of Tianxiang Tower - Fairy Hongchen.

Fairy Hongchen is the first of the three most beautiful women in the Ten Thousand Races Alliance. She has a stunning appearance and a graceful figure that is mouth-watering.

She is a woman full of temptation, but no one dares to have any improper thoughts about her.

Because Fairy Hongchen's background is extremely complicated, she has three major forces supporting her.

The first is the Taixu Sect, which ranks second in the Tianwu World; the second is the Shengyuan Ancient Sect, which ranks third; and the third is the Mingfu Sect, which ranks fourth.

These are extremely huge forces, and they are daunting.

In addition, Fairy Hongchen has another very scary identity—her mother is rumored to be a powerful person at the Saint Emperor level.

This news made Shiji feel very surprised.

Shiji had previously guessed that Fairy Hongchen might have an unusually powerful background.

But he never expected that this fairy from the mortal world would have such an incredible background.

"This woman is not easy to mess with." Fragments of memories about the Red Dust Fairy suddenly emerged in Shiji's mind.

This woman is extremely dangerous.

When Shiji encountered disaster in the outer area of ​​the Samsara Immortal Sect, it was all thanks to the Red Dust Fairy.

"Fairy Hongchen! Why are you here to attend this auction?"

"Today, I was in a good mood, so I came here to join in the fun!"

As soon as he finished speaking, a group of beautiful dancers filed in.

Each of these dancers held a wooden box in her hands.

When the wooden boxes were opened one by one, numerous crystals were revealed inside.

The crystal stones sparkle with colorful light, dazzling and brilliant.

The power contained in each crystal is violent and terrifying. If it can be integrated into one's own body, it will definitely greatly enhance one's combat effectiveness.

These crystals should have been carefully cut from ores. If we could get those ores...

Wouldn't the space in Shiji's storage ring be filled with all kinds of crystals?
Shiji's eyes lit up instantly, and her gaze was fixed on those crystals.

These crystals are the best of the best. If they are sold, they will surely fetch huge fortunes.

Shiji planned to wait until the auction was over before purchasing the minerals.

"This is a top-grade source crystal stone. Each one is worth 10 billion source crystal stones. The bidding starts now."

As soon as he finished speaking, many powerful people began to bid.

Whether it is a high-level fairy stone, a fairy crystal stone, or an ordinary source crystal stone.

As long as it is a source crystal, the price is basically around tens of billions.

Among them, a fist-sized source crystal stone was directly auctioned at a high price of 180 billion.

This price was far beyond Shiji's expectations.

Finally, this source crystal stone was bought by a powerful emperor.

This person's name is Zhou Tianhao, and he is a quasi-immortal-level warrior with extraordinary strength.

"Okay, everyone, today's auction is over. I hope you can continue to come to support tomorrow's auction!"

The auctioneer announced.

As he finished speaking, the auction officially ended.

Shiji got up and left the VIP room.

Many people have gathered outside the auction house, waiting for it to open so they can take away the items they bought.

Shiji walked outside, and suddenly, he felt several fierce murderous intentions locking onto him.

"We're in trouble!" Shiji had a cold expression on his face. He knew that those people were coming for him.

His face suddenly turned gloomy and he turned and walked out.

Just when Shiji turned around.

A sword flash came towards him like lightning, with astonishing speed and terrifying power.

Obviously, the other party had planned the sneak attack for a long time.

Many monks also noticed this sudden change.

They all turned their heads to look in the direction of Shiji.

But when he saw who the monk was who had attacked Shiji, an expression of shock appeared on his face.

"Fairy Red Dust." Many people gasped.

"Fairy Hongchen actually attacked that cultivator by surprise. Why?"

Everyone was talking about it, but they couldn't understand why. Although Fairy Hongchen was a young and beautiful girl, she seemed to have a bad temper, was moody, and cruel.

Many monks were wary of her, fearing that they would provoke her and get into trouble.

Therefore, Fairy Hongchen became the auctioneer here.

As for Fairy Hongchen's father, it is said that he is an extremely terrifying existence. He once caused bloody storms in the Tianwu Continent and committed countless murders.

Many cultivators believed that Fairy Hongchen’s father was even a peerless powerful being at the Saint Emperor level, which was why he had such powerful strength.

Shiji naturally also saw the Red Dust Fairy rushing towards him. He snorted coldly and swung his right arm violently.

A vast and endless magical power surged out and directly hit the Red Dust Fairy.

There was only a muffled "puff" sound.

The Red Dust Fairy spat out a mouthful of blood.

Her chest was pierced by Shiji's palm.

"Bitch! How dare you sneak attack me? I will kill you today to relieve my hatred!"

There was murderous intent in Shiji's eyes.

He reached out and grabbed the Red Dust Fairy.

But at this time, Fairy Hongchen quickly retreated.

Then, she took out a piece of talisman paper and stuck it between her eyebrows.

A crack appeared in the void and Fairy Hongchen rushed in.

Shiji retracted his arm, jumped up and chased after him.

"Young Master, that woman has escaped, let's go after her." Poison Ancestor said in a deep voice.

Shiji nodded lightly, "Yeah," and then the group quickly chased in the direction where Fairy Hongchen escaped.

This dark ancient star is very vast, with complex terrain, and it is difficult for ordinary people to identify the direction. But at this time, Shiji sacrificed the map of breaking the formation.

With the help of the map to break the formation, Shiji found the escape route of Fairy Hongchen.

This place is far enough away from the auction house.

Even though Shiji and others are incredibly fast, it still takes a lot of time to catch up with Fairy Hongchen.

"Boy! Do you really think you can catch up with me? That's really stupid!"

On the way, Fairy Hongchen suddenly stopped, turned to Shiji, her face full of sarcasm.

Hearing the ridicule from the Red Dust Fairy, Shiji's face darkened and his eyes became grim.

He responded coldly: "I can't catch up with you right now, but I will catch up with you sooner or later, just wait and see!"

"Hmph, you keep talking nonsense. I don't have time to deal with you now. When we get to Luofeng Ridge, I will make you kneel down and beg for mercy. Then, I will torture you and make you live a life worse than death!"

As soon as she finished speaking, Fairy Hongchen turned into a ball of black mist and disappeared in an instant.

Shiji frowned and did not continue to chase. Luofeng Ridge was an extremely dangerous place, like a dragon's den and a tiger's lair.

If he barged in rashly, he would probably die.

Since Fairy Hongchen chose Luofeng Ridge, it means that she is sure to get rid of her pursuit. Shiji dare not chase her rashly.

So he returned to his residence.

After three days of seclusion, Shiji finally recovered to his peak state.

He had planned to continue practicing in seclusion in an effort to make another breakthrough.

But at this moment, there was a sudden knock on the door.

When Shiji opened the door, she saw that it was an invitation sent by the Red Dust Fairy.

Fairy Hongchen invited him to attend a banquet in the auction hall.

Shiji raised her eyebrows slightly, feeling puzzled. She wondered what Fairy Hongchen was planning. Was she trying to take the opportunity to get rid of her?

However, Shiji was not too worried about whether Fairy Hongchen had the ability to defeat him.

Even though the cultivation level of Fairy Hongchen was almost the same as his, she had only just entered the ninth level of the Emperor Lord realm.

Shiji was confident that his fighting power could definitely crush all ninth-level emperors.

Of course, this is just his estimate.

What if Fairy Hongchen has hidden her strength?

After all, a woman like Red Dust Fairy should never be underestimated.

He decided to stabilize the situation first, since he was not familiar with Luofengling anyway.

It might be a good idea to go and see what the Red Dust Fairy is up to.

So, Shiji accepted the invitation and decided to go.

Shiji arrived at the door of the inn and saw several precious chariots parked at the door and a group of young men gathered together chatting and laughing.

These young cultivators should be young talents from various forces. They were chatting about interesting stories in the cultivation world. Perhaps some of them were independent cultivators, some were disciples of sects, and some were children of large clans.

The identities of these young heroes are not simple.

The main reason they gathered here was because of a female cultivator.

The female cultivator was tall, with skin as white as jade, and was extremely beautiful. She was wearing a white dress and had a graceful figure.

She was standing beside the chariot, talking with several young monks, looking elegant and generous.

"Beauty is really a disaster."

Shiji couldn't help but mutter to himself.

When the young monks saw Shiji coming, they hurried to greet him.

A monk in green clothes asked with a smile: "Brother, where are you from?"

Shi Ji replied: "I came from the Southern Wasteland Province. Is this the Black Prison Mountains?"

"Black Prison Mountains? Brother, you don't even know this place? Brother, you are from another state, right?" The green-robed monk looked at Shiji in surprise, his eyes slightly narrowed.

The others also looked at Shiji with strange eyes.

Shi Ji said calmly: "Yes, I just came from the outer space world and don't know much about the things here."

When everyone heard Shiji admit that he was a cultivator from the outer space world, they couldn't help but show contempt on their faces. Most cultivators from the outer space world are extremely vicious. (End of this chapter)
