Peerless Douluo: Blood of the Black King Nidhogg!

Chapter 149 The Wondrous Path of Purification, Manifesting Sacred Power! The Eye of the Netherworld! (4K)

Accompanied by the crisp sound of high heels, a beautiful young woman in a bright red dress, with a graceful figure and stunning looks, slowly walked into the auction hall under the spotlight and stood still.

"Welcome, distinguished guests, tonight at Morning Star Auction House for this grand auction. I am the auctioneer, Ya Song. Without further ado, the auction is now officially open."

After a brief opening speech, Ya Song clapped her hands lightly, and then the floorboards beside her feet quietly moved, presenting the first item for auction.

It was a soul bone sealed in a glass box. It was dark green in color and shaped like a long sword. It was most likely a left leg bone.

"Item number one in the auction: the left leg bone of the Green Vine, aged 56,000 years, from a soul beast named Demon Eye Green Vine..."

"The auction will now begin. The starting price is three million gold soul coins, and each bid must be at least fifty thousand gold soul coins higher."

Soon after the auctioneer from Yason finished introducing the information and bidding price of the soul bone, someone immediately offered their own price.

"Three and a half million gold soul coins!"

The voice came from VIP room number 11, and it sounded like a man in his prime.

As the voice faded, a flurry of bids began to rang out. Generally, the bids came from the VIP rooms on the second floor, while few people on the first floor made a move, and even if they did, their bids were quickly overtaken by higher prices.

Hearing the ever-increasing price, Mo Yuan smiled without saying a word, a playful look in his eyes.

If the final item is indeed the Snow Emperor (a famous snow-themed item), then who would spend money to bid? Aren't people all just playing the free-to-buy game?
The first soul bone was quickly sold for a high price by VIP Room No. 8, and the second item was immediately put on stage for bidding.

The auction proceeded very quickly, even to the point of feeling rushed, as if everyone was in sync, speeding up to buy the earlier items in anticipation of the grand finale.

About half an hour later, after the seventh item was sold, the once bustling auction hall fell silent, and no one spoke again.

According to Morning Star Auction House, there will only be nine items up for auction this time. In other words, the next item to be auctioned will be the grand finale, the treasure that is rumored to be able to grant its owner a second martial soul.

Auctioneer Yasong seemed to have sensed what everyone was thinking. She smiled slightly and did not immediately put the item up for auction. Instead, she began to introduce the treasure.

"I suppose most of you have gathered at the Morning Star Auction House today for this grand finale treasure. To be frank, this treasure is indeed extremely extraordinary and precious. In my opinion, it would be a bit cheap to measure it in monetary terms."

Auctioneer Yasong turned to the side and pointed to the soul guide screen behind him, which had already lit up. A white disc appeared on the screen, and on the disc was a wooden stand inlaid with more than a hundred gems of various colors.

On this small wooden support, a wisp of white air was constantly fluctuating.

The airflow, though seemingly ethereal, remained condensed and did not dissipate. At the same time, it was slowly rushing outwards, trying to break free of its restraints, but it was always blocked by the golden barrier rising from the edge of the wooden support.

As expected, it was the Snow Empress… Mo Yuan’s gaze sharpened, his eyes burning with fervor, and a gray light flickered behind him, ready to open the undead demiplane and seize the Snow Empress at any moment.

Auctioneer Yasong spoke in a serious tone tinged with a hint of wistfulness, “As you all know, when a soul beast reaches a cultivation level of 100,000 years or even higher, it can choose to transform into a human and start cultivating again. Although the probability is very small, it is not impossible.”

"When a soul beast is rebuilding, no matter how powerful it is, it will fall into its weakest stage, which is also the best time to hunt it. Coincidentally, a level nine soul master used this level nine soul tool called the God Sealing Platform in the far north to seal a 100,000-year-old soul beast that was in the process of transforming into human form inside it!"

These words immediately stirred up a storm, with various discussions and exclamations rising up, including from powerful figures residing in the VIP room on the second floor.

"Damn humans!!! I knew this soul tool looked so familiar! It was the one that sealed away the Snow Empress!" Within his spiritual sea, the Ice Empress's eyes were bloodshot with murderous intent, and endless cold air spread out, freezing all the surrounding snow mountains.

Looking at the Snow Empress struggling in the Conferred God Platform, she felt as if her heart was being torn apart. If she weren't just a soul, she would have annihilated all the humans here.

"Mo Yuan, I'm begging you this once. Do whatever it takes to save the Snow Empress from these filthy humans! And then kill them all! Name your price, and I'll do it if I can!" the Ice Empress said through gritted teeth.

Mo Yuan suppressed the restless Ice Jade Emperor Scorpion's torso bone on his back, and then said calmly, "You don't need to beg. The first condition was already agreed upon by you and me before. As for the second condition, I will kill if I can. We'll save the price for later."

"Alright!" Hyotei nodded emphatically, then stared intently at the outside world, determined to witness those greedy humans meet their demise here.

The auctioneer continued, "I don't need to elaborate on the value of a 100,000-year-old soul beast that can be slaughtered at will, right? Some people might ask, didn't the initial rumors say that this auction item could be granted a second martial soul?"

Upon hearing this, the auction house fell silent once more, everyone listening intently to every word the auctioneer from Yason Auctioneer spoke next.

"I can tell you all with certainty that this news is true, but there will be a price to pay," said Auctioneer Yasong. "The price is that this soul beast's 100,000-year soul ring and 100,000-year soul bone will no longer be obtainable; in its place, a completely new martial soul will be created!"

"I cannot say which of the two is more valuable; that depends entirely on your own thoughts. So without further ado, let's officially begin with the eighth item in this auction!"

After saying this, the auctioneer quietly withdrew from the spotlight and disappeared into the darkness, replaced by a wooden stand identical to the one on the soul tool screen, along with that wisp of white energy.

But the next second, instead of the bidding price announced by the auctioneer, several explosions rang out almost simultaneously in the auction hall!

"Boom! Boom! Boom!"

Along with the explosion, a low shout with a different tone also rang out.

"Do it!"

The walls of VIP room number eleven suddenly shattered, and several dark figures shrouded in dark green cloaks flew out and headed towards the auction stage.

The same thing happened in the adjacent VIP room number ten. Nangong Wan and several other titled Douluo, who had been waiting for this moment, burst out of the wall with an undisguised evil aura and then went straight to the people in the adjacent VIP room number eleven, ignoring the auction stage.

"Hehehe! Our master has already set his sights on that treasure. If you know what's good for you, get lost!" Nangong Wan chuckled in a low voice, his nine spirit rings flashing simultaneously, and his disgusting and terrifying Heavenly Centipede Martial Soul crawling upside down on the ceiling.

The other evil soul masters, all titled Douluo, also released their martial souls, staring at the green-clad man opposite them with sinister smiles.

"An evil soul master at the Title Douluo level?"

The leader of the green-clad men let out a roar, and his immense soul power burst forth, revealing nine heaven-defying soul rings: yellow, purple, black, red, and crimson.

The people behind him were the same; the lowest level was Title Douluo, and their ninth spirit rings were all crimson and ten thousand years old!

Nangong Wan and the other evil soul masters were dumbfounded. Were titled Douluo and 100,000-year soul rings really so worthless now? How come they're everywhere!

"Get lost!" The titled Douluo, second only to the leader, slapped Nangong Wan and the others. His hand was already much larger than that of an ordinary person, and it swelled up ten times as it swept through the air!
"Damn! They're from the Body Sect!"

After Nangong Wan and the others exclaimed in surprise, they were slapped into the hall below. The overwhelming pressure of soul power poured down and crushed all the soul masters except for Nangong Wan and the others into minced meat!
"Bullshit! You're the one from the Body Sect!" The titled Douluo from the Body Sect still tried to deny it.

"Don't waste time! I'm going to seize the Conferred God Platform, you guys go to the Mingde Hall! Kill as many as you can!" After saying that, the leader flashed to the auction platform and reached straight for the wooden tray with his large hand.

Just as the giant hand was about to touch the wooden support, the world seemed to freeze, and when the scene returned to normal, the wooden support had vanished without a trace.

Steel plates and wood chips fell from the sky, and a deep, eerie roar echoed overhead, accompanied by a mocking male voice.

"What does the Poison Sect Master mean by this? To snatch something before the auction has even started is a bit too domineering, isn't it?"

With their identities exposed, they're not going to pretend they're not dead anymore. After all, for people like them, using cloaks to cover up their true identities is just burying their heads in the sand and is completely unnecessary.

Poison Undying and the other survivors all looked up and saw that the roof of the auction house had completely cracked, revealing the deep, inky night sky behind it.

At the edge of the roof, the End Dragon coiled, its dark golden eyes filled with murderous intent and hunger as it looked down at everyone.

Mo Yuan was dressed in a black cloak, with a ghost mask on his face and silver hair flowing down his shoulders. He held a wooden tray filled with white energy in his hand.

Let alone Poison Undying coming to snatch Snow Empress today, even if Long Xiaoyao came, he wouldn't be able to get it before him. After all, with Time Zero's blessing, snatching something is no easier than eating or drinking.

"The End Douluo, Ye Xuan!" Du Busi said, enunciating each word clearly. This was the first time he had ever seen this top-tier evil soul master, who was already a household name on the continent.

"My lord!" Nangong Wan and the other evil soul masters and titled Douluo exclaimed in surprise.

At this moment, the other VIP rooms that were still intact also exploded, and several figures emerged from the smoke and dust. These people were all titled Douluo and level nine Soul Masters of the Sun Moon Empire.

The person in the lead was Jing Hongchen, the head of Mingde Hall.

"Poison Undying, how dare you! It's one thing to sneak into my Sun Moon Empire, but you even dare to kill my Mingde Hall disciples. Do you want to start a war?!" Jing Hongchen pointed at Poison Undying and shouted angrily.

As for Nangong Wan and Ye Xuan, he selectively ignored them. He was, after all, a high-ranking official of the Sun Moon Empire, so how could he not know that evil soul masters had some connection with the imperial family?

So if Ye Xuan and Nangong Wan don't cause any more trouble, he won't bother with it.

"Ye Xuan made the first move to seize the treasure, and you, Jing Hongchen, want to join in the fun again! Then let's fight!" Du Busi gritted his teeth, his eyes blazing with anger. His body began to swell, and the nine soul rings beneath his feet flashed and pulsed violently.

After transforming into a miniature giant, Du Busi slapped Jing Hongchen, Nangong Wan, and the others without saying a word. Dark green light shone brightly, turning into countless green liquids that splashed onto the ground.

"Taste my deadly poison!"

Mo Yuan put away the Conferred God Platform, and the End Demon Dragon leaped down, unleashing a burst of dragon flame that turned the entire Morning Star Auction House into a sea of ​​fire.

With the End Dragon restraining him, Mo Yuan was lifted by the wind element and descended into the sky, merging with the night.

Suddenly, accompanied by a crisp sound, several cracks appeared on the forehead of the silver demon mask, which then shattered to reveal the forehead underneath.

Mo Yuan placed his right hand in a sword-finger gesture on his forehead, then gently traced it from top to bottom.

"The mysterious way of the Pure Source, the mighty power of the Holy Spirit!"

A vertical line appeared on his forehead, from which a dark green light pierced, growing ever brighter until finally, within that light, a vertical pupil with black white and dark green pupil quietly opened!

"The Eye of the Underworld!"

Under the illumination of the Soul Bone Skill 'Eye of the Netherworld', all illusions were shattered, and no concealment could hide anything. Then, Mo Yuan opened his arms in the high sky, as if to embrace the entire night.

The cold wind continued to howl, and amidst the wind, a faint chanting sound was somehow mixed in. The sound was very melodious, but the tone was unusually eerie, sending chills down one's spine and making one's hair stand on end.

Upon hearing this sound, Nangong Wan and several other evil soul masters, who were fighting a Title Douluo from the Body Sect, began to experience blurred vision. They immediately sensed something was wrong.
However, since they had risen rapidly through crooked means, their foundation, temperament, strength, and mental state were all quite appalling. Under the pure mental attack, the group quickly collapsed to the ground with their heads tilted to the side.

The members of the Body Sect and the Soul Masters of the Sun Moon Empire also quickly discovered these strange chanting sounds, but they were either exceptionally strong in spirit or powerful in strength.

Although they were also affected, they didn't collapse from the effects as quickly as Nangong Wan and the others.

Du Busi and Jing Hongchen turned their heads and saw that apart from the End Demon Dragon still causing destruction everywhere, there was no trace of Ye Xuan.

The identity of the mastermind behind the scenes is now obvious.

"Ye Xuan!" Poisonous Immortal's eyes were bloodshot, his heart burning with rage. Ye Xuan had first snatched the Conferred God Platform from his hands, then disrupted the situation, and then used underhanded tactics while remaining uninvolved. When had he, a dignified level 98 Super Douluo, ever been so humiliated?!

With a roar to the sky, Du Busi slapped the incoming level-nine soul tool to pieces and then prepared to lead his men to fight Ye Xuan first.

Just as Jing Hongchen was wondering whether to stop Du Busi, a series of extremely painful and shrill screams suddenly rang out, giving even Jing Hongchen goosebumps.

Everyone turned their heads to look at the sound and saw Nangong Wan and the others lying on the ground with their eyes closed and their expressions extremely distorted. They were tearing at their bodies with their hands until their flesh was bloody and their bones were exposed. The sight made everyone frown and feel a chill down their spines.

Just as Du Busi and Jing Hongchen's attention was diverted, gray light surged beneath the feet of the End Demon Dragon, and a teleportation array quietly took shape. In the blink of an eye, the End Demon Dragon vanished from the auction house.

Upon realizing this, Du Bu Si laughed in exasperation, "Very well! Byd's Ye Xuan, you're quite the character. You've already tricked this old man on our first meeting."

Just wait, next time we meet, I'll give you a dirty trick right away!
"Let's withdraw!"

Poison Immortal slapped the already crumbling Morning Star Auction House to pieces, erased all traces, and then led his men into the sky, speeding away from Mingdu.

Seeing this, Jing Hongchen laughed in anger. "Old man, what do you take our Sun Moon Empire's capital for? Coming and going as you please, a public toilet?!"

"Go after them!"
