Battle Through the Heavens: Xiao Yan, I am your second master

"Green Barbarian understands, but Elder Huang, there are also strong people in the Black Corner Region. Several strong people have come from Canaan Academy, and there are also strong people from Demon Flame Valley and Black Emperor Sect. It won't be easy to deal with them."

The woman named Green Barbarian said with some worry.

The woman lying on her side on the sofa also fell silent.

Green Barbarian is right. Even a powerful dragon can't suppress a local snake. Their Heavenly Serpent Palace is indeed very powerful, and its lord is an extremely strong Dou Zong expert with ample lifespan. It's not impossible for him to advance to Dou Zun in the future.

Besides the Lord of the Heavenly Serpent Palace, there are several Dou Zong elders and more than a dozen Dou Huang elders. The Heavenly Serpent Palace also has extremely reliable snake-type magical beast companions, and the Heavenly Serpent Palace has an excellent relationship with snake-type magical beasts.

Like this Douhuang Elder named Huang Xiyue, she has a sixth-tier magical beast companion by her side. This time, the Heavenly Serpent Palace sent three people: Huang Xiyue, Lü Man, and that sixth-tier magical beast.

The lineup from the Heavenly Serpent Mansion this time is indeed very strong, but it's not enough to dominate the Black Corner Region. Not to mention that there are more than fifteen Dou Huangs at the auction this time.

Not to mention that there are indeed Dou Zong powerhouses in the Black Corner Region. The Earth Demon Old Ghost of Demon Flame Valley is extremely powerful. A Dou Zong elder of the Heavenly Serpent Mansion once fought against him but was defeated. If the Earth Demon Old Ghost hadn't been wary of the power of the Heavenly Serpent Mansion, that elder might not have returned.

There's also Canaan Academy. The elusive dean of Canaan Academy is a Dou Zun powerhouse. Who knows how many Dou Zong are in Canaan Academy!

According to intelligence from the Heavenly Serpent Palace, Su Qian, who recently broke through to the Dou Zong level and became the new Grand Elder, and Bai Lie, the former Grand Elder, are both Dou Zong level experts.

"Oh my! The battle is over." Elder Huang saw that the first Dou Huang to emerge victorious in the auction hall below had been burned into a blackened mess by a powerful flame.

"This Xuan Ye Sect actually has a peak Dou Huang expert. Just as we guessed, this Xuan Ye Sect probably comes from Zhongzhou," Elder Huang sighed.

Although the Heavenly Serpent Palace is powerful, it can only reign supreme in the Northwest Continent. It is not qualified to become a powerful force in the Central Continent.

The little incident came and went quickly. A mere two-star Dou Huang, wanting to challenge the peak of Dou Huang? Not qualified!

Several arrogant fighting kings who relied on their master's power were also torn to pieces by Ye Xuan's vines.

"The little episode is over, everyone please continue!" Ye Xuan was filled with murderous aura, but his face was still smiling, which made many people shudder.

With the appearance of the Earth-rank combat skills, the atmosphere in the auction house entered its most exciting and climaxing period. The major forces at the front finally began their bare-chested, red-faced bidding, leaving countless people dumbfounded.

The "Shattering Meteor Fist" did not have an initial reserve price, but the moment Ye Xuan's auction hammer fell, the price suddenly soared to two million. This terrifying speed of increase stunned many people.

Such extravagance and boldness, displayed to the fullest extent by those forces in the face of the allure of this Earth-rank combat skill, was demonstrated by their willingness to spend lavishly.

The ever-increasing prices kept the atmosphere in the auction house in a state of excited shouts without ever letting up, and the sky-high prices kept doubling rapidly.

Even though many people knew they were no longer qualified to even think about that stuff, witnessing such a thrilling financial competition made their trip worthwhile.

The price quickly rose to eight million gold coins, a price that exceeded Xiao Li's available funds, given that he had spent a considerable amount of money lavishly since arriving in the Black Corner Region.

However, money was still easy for Xiao Li to earn; he just needed to refine a few batches of pills.

The price quickly rose again, and Mo Tianxing, the sect leader of the Black Emperor Sect, stood up: "I'll take this Earth-rank battle skill! Everyone, please give the Black Emperor Sect some face!"

Mo Tianxing bid ten million, a price of ten million for a Earth-rank combat skill!

Mo Tianxing's domineering approach was quite reasonable in the auction house, as most independent cultivators and small forces were still afraid of the size of the Black Emperor Sect and Mo Tianxing's strength.

But there are always a few who are not afraid of death, whose cultivation is no less than Mo Tianxing's, or who have powerful backers and are not afraid of the Black Emperor Sect at all.

"Heh heh, others may fear your slander against the Imperial Clan, but I, this old man, am not afraid. Eleven million!"

The speaker was also an elderly man, who looked even older than Mo Tianxing. His aged face revealed a hint of ferocity.

Third on the blacklist: Old Man Yingshan!

"Ten million five hundred thousand!"

Huang Xiyue of the Heavenly Serpent Mansion made a bid, saying that she didn't really want this fighting skill. It would be best if she could buy it, but if not, she would just do her part to help out.

"Twelve million!" Mo Tianxing gritted his teeth again. Although he had a lot of funds and the Black Emperor Sect also did auction business, he was still a little reluctant to spend this time. But he had finally found a suitable fighting technique and Mo Tianxing did not want to give it up.

"Good! Twelve million for Sect Master Mo once! Good! The second time! The third time! The Earth-rank fighting skill belongs to Sect Master Mo!" Ye Xuan laughed loudly.

"Alright, there are three items left to bid on. This auction is about to come to an end. Now, let's welcome the third to last item!" Ye Xuan said with great excitement.

Ye Xuan then carefully took out a platinum plate about half a foot in size from the cabinet below. Inside the platinum plate stood a small jade box about the size of a palm.

The box was a pale blue color, and the material was obviously very impressive, like a container for holding pills or medicinal herbs.

Ye Xuan slowly opened the jade box, and in just an instant, a rich fragrance of elixirs filled the entire auction house.

"This is a Battle Spirit Pill! I don't need to elaborate on its effects, right? Again, there's no reserve price; the highest bidder wins!"

Ye Xuan waved his hand, instructing the various forces below to take action and vie for the Battle Spirit Pill.

"Battle Spirit Pill? I didn't expect there to be an alchemist of this caliber in the Black Corner Region! Hmph! Once I master the Burning Technique, you will all be my defeated opponents! I can even reach that old man's level!"

The speaker was dressed in a black robe, obscuring his appearance, but he exuded a strong medicinal fragrance, suggesting he was an alchemist. However, the man in the black robe sat in a corner of the auction house, not buying anything, as if he was just there to observe.

Ultimately, the Battle Spirit Pill was bought by Demon Flame Valley. It seems that Demon Flame Valley will have another Battle King who can improve their strength by one star.

"Next up is the second to last item, and the one everyone's most excited about!"

Ye Xuan carefully took out a half-foot-sized purple-gold plate from the cabinet behind him. Inside the purple-gold plate, a palm-sized cold jade box stood.

The box was pale white. Although they were quite far apart, the people below could still clearly see the faint white chill emanating from the jade box. This was the chill preservation effect possessed only by the finest jade.

As soon as the jade box appeared, all the forces in front of the auction straightened up, their eyes filled with undisguised greed as they stared intently at the jade box.

They all wanted to know if the rumors were true, if there really were seventh-grade pills!

Ye Xuan gently placed the purple-gold plate on the auction stage, then carefully lifted the lid. Instantly, a burst of golden light shot out.

The sudden golden light illuminated the entire auction hall, and some people who were caught off guard instinctively closed their eyes.

At this moment, inside the jade box on the crystal platform, a golden pill the size of a longan lay quietly.

The surface of the pill was extremely smooth, with two wisps of golden energy flowing erratically inside. Occasionally, they would suddenly surge forward, and upon closer inspection, the golden energy would actually converge into two tiny golden dragons, intertwined with each other. The faint dragon roars, through the vibrations in the air, slowly spread out, causing the souls of those who heard them to tremble involuntarily under the dragon's might.

The condensation of spiritual energy is a phenomenon that only seventh-grade and higher-level pills possess!

"Ladies and gentlemen, many of you have likely come here because of the fame of this seventh-grade pill. Indeed, this is the seventh-grade pill, the Yin-Yang Profound Dragon Pill! It is also one of the highlights of this auction!"
