Douluo's Blue Silver Family

Chapter 345 The Storm in the Holy City

The humanoid ancient divine medicine created a climax, and now comes the final, grand finale.

"Now we are preparing to auction the last item of this auction, which is also the second highlight: the Ancient Insect Divine Source cut from the Source Stone," the old man on the high platform announced loudly.

A divine source the size of an adult's fist was placed on the high platform, radiating light like a small sun. Forty-nine ancient insects were sealed inside the divine source.

"Divine Source, this is Divine Source! This Divine Source alone is incredibly valuable."

"The divine source is indeed valuable, but the ancient insects sealed within it are even more valuable."

The auction house erupted in excitement once again, especially among some of the very old-looking cultivators, who trembled with elation.

This is the source of ancient insect divine essence, and it's also the main ingredient in a longevity elixir. For cultivators whose lifespans are nearing their end, there's nothing more precious than treasures that can extend their lives.

After all, if you lose your life, you can't enjoy even the most precious things. Therefore, it's not unreasonable to use the Ancient Insect Divine Source as the final, grand prize.

Looking down at the excited crowd from the high platform, he loudly introduced, "This ancient insect divine source alone is worth 100,000 jin of source, and inside there are forty-nine ancient insects of even greater value."

"Furthermore, as you all probably know, the divine pills made with ancient insects as the main ingredient can extend life by three to four hundred years, which is almost equivalent to an 80,000-year-old medicine king."

"Therefore, the starting price for the Ancient Insect Divine Source is 600,000 jin of source. Please begin bidding."

After some introductions, the auctioneer on the high platform announced the auction price of the Ancient Insect Divine Source. With the export of 600,000 jin of the source, the sensation caused by this event became even more intense.

"Six hundred and one thousand catties of raw materials." As soon as the words were spoken, someone on the high platform began to make an offer.

Although the price seems a bit outrageous, it's still considered normal for some people who need it, and they don't feel there's anything wrong with the price.

"620,000 catties of raw materials." As the first person started bidding, others followed suit.

"630,000 jin of raw materials."

"640,000 jin of raw materials."

"..."

Ordinary cultivators are completely unable to participate in this kind of game and can only watch as those holy land families keep raising prices.

After all, many powerful forces had already made preparations, and these people came mainly for the Ancient Insect Divine Source.

It's easy to imagine how tempting the prospect of extending one's life by three or four hundred years is for those whose lives are nearing their end, as evidenced by the intense bidding at the auction.

You know, who wouldn't want something that could extend their life by three or four hundred years? There's a saying, "It's better to live a miserable life than to die a good death," which is pretty much the same idea.

"1.25 million jin of source material for the first time, 1.25 million jin of source material for the second time... and the third time."

"Thump!"

"Congratulations to Guhua Dynasty for finally winning the bid for the Ancient Insect Divine Source."

Ultimately, the Ancient Insect Divine Source was obtained by the Ancient Hua Dynasty, even though the Ancient Hua Dynasty withdrew from the competition with Yuan Changqing for the humanoid ancient divine medicine.

However, the Ancient Hua Dynasty was truly determined to obtain the Ancient Insect Divine Source this time, and in the end, it was auctioned off for a sky-high price of 1.25 million catties of source, which is astonishing.

However, for an immortal power that rules over the endless regions of the Central Plains, this is truly a drop in the ocean.

With the Ancient Insect Divine Source being auctioned off, the auction officially came to an end. Ye Fan alone gained nearly two million catties of source material from the last two auction items, which was enough for him to cultivate to the Dao Palace Perfection stage.

However, because there are still four great tribulations waiting for Ye Fan, he has been collecting sources to prepare for the upcoming tribulations.

Afterwards, Yuan Changqing took Ye Fan to the Heavenly Demon Palace to settle the source, and then they left together.

Those who had been supporting Ye Fan could only watch from afar after discovering that there was an unfathomable master beside him.

When those people were following Ye Fan, Yuan Changqing immediately released his powerful aura, which deterred them from making any rash moves.

……

After parting ways with Ye Fan, Yuan Changqing returned to his residence and immediately planted the humanoid immortal medicine inside the World Pearl.

Now, this humanoid immortal medicine still has a sliver of hope. After Yuan Changqing planted it into the World Pearl, a few roots gradually sprouted from its feet.

Looking at the condition of this humanoid immortal medicine, one can tell that it is aware of the World Pearl's help to it. With this bit of life force, its vitality will surely become stronger and stronger over time.

Yuan Changqing's World Pearl now contains the White Tiger Immortal Medicine, the He Shou Wu Semi-Divine Medicine, and now the Humanoid Immortal Medicine, making him two Immortal Medicines in total.

Previously on Mars, Yuan Changqing had also stored the Bodhi tree's body into the World Bead. However, he originally wanted to see if he could restore its vitality through the World Bead, but now it seems that was wishful thinking.

After all, the Bodhi tree had already undergone Nirvana, and its vitality had long since transferred to the Bodhi seeds. The remaining Bodhi tree body only retained some of the medicinal properties of the immortal elixir.

This is why there are still six Bodhi leaves on the Bodhi tree's trunk. After such a long time, Yuan Changqing has also determined that the Bodhi tree has no possibility of being revived.

However, such a large Bodhi tree trunk should not be wasted. Looking at the six emerald green Bodhi leaves still hanging on the Bodhi tree, and considering that Ye Fan's Bodhi seeds could be used for enlightenment, Yuan Changqing also had some ideas.

Yuan Changqing planned to extract the essence of the divine medicine from the Bodhi tree, and then use six Bodhi leaves and the heartwood of the Bodhi tree to make six Bodhi beads.

In this way, it should also have the effect of enlightenment. Perhaps it cannot compare with the Bodhi Seed, the immortal medicine in Ye Fan's hands, but having the effect of enlightenment is better than nothing.

Yuan Changqing knew that relying solely on his own enlightenment, not to mention natural talent, was increasingly difficult as one progressed.

After having this idea, Yuan Changqing planned to go to the Fire Domain of the Jin Kingdom in the Southern Region again after he and Ye Fan went to the Ten Thousand Dragon Nest.

……

In the days that followed, the Holy City did not quiet down after the auction at the Heavenly Demon Palace ended; instead, it became even more lively.

Because Ye Fan's priceless treasure from the Holy City fetched an astronomical price at the Heavenly Demon Palace auction, the various stone workshops became even more bustling, allowing the stone workshops in the Holy City to make a fortune from this opportunity.

Moreover, with the arrival of the descendants of the Source King lineage, the gambling craze for Source King has been reignited, causing huge losses to any stone workshops visited by the descendants of the Source King lineage. They have also caused chaos in many stone workshops once again.

Eight descendants of the Source King lineage came to the Holy City this time. After arriving in the Holy City, they went on a rampage through various stone archways, and their achievements caused quite a stir.

Finally, he even publicly announced that he would challenge the ancient style, which was Ye Fan's alias in the Holy City.

After all, Ye Fan wasn't stupid to be surrounded and blocked by so many holy lands and aristocratic families. He naturally needed to change his appearance, otherwise, if he were exposed to the outside world, wouldn't that be asking for trouble?

Ye Fan, using the alias Gu Feng, was precisely at a time when he lacked resources. Since those eight people claimed to be descendants of the Source King lineage, they must not lack resources.

So Ye Fan decided to play along and accepted the challenge, but the stakes were raised again.

Faced with Ye Fan's response, the successor of the Yuan King lineage naturally had confidence. In the end, both sides agreed and set a time to officially settle the score. The winner would take all of the loser's gains, plus the stakes of both sides.

This battle of source techniques instantly caused a sensation in the Holy City, and then spread throughout the Holy City in the shortest time, and continued to spread to the Northern Region and even further places.

This duel of source techniques has made all the stone workshops very nervous, as they are all afraid that the two sides will choose their own stone workshop as the location for the duel.

Therefore, all the major stone workshops within the Holy City began to hide some new source stones to avoid serious losses.

Of course, those famous source stones that have been displayed for a long time can no longer be hidden away, after all, it concerns the reputation of a stone shop, and it's a matter of credibility.

Besides the source technique duel between Ye Fan and the source king's lineage, the holy land families preparing for the second attack on Purple Mountain are also ready, which is also the focus of attention in the Holy City.

However, it remains to be seen whether this second attack on Zishan will succeed in obtaining the Emperor's Weapon from the Great Emperor Wushi, as well as the fortune within Zishan.

……

"Clang... clang... clang..."

Seven days after the auction ended, the bells rang out again throughout the holy city. The melodious sound of the bells resounded throughout the heavens and the earth, reaching far and wide. The entire holy city resonated with the sound of the bells and began to tremble.

"The Beginningless Bell rang again, it seems that the second attack on Purple Mountain has ended."

Upon hearing the bell, Yuan Changqing already knew the outcome of the attack on Zishan; there was simply no chance of success.

So, Yuan Changqing's gaze once again fell upon the heavenly palace in the center of the holy city.

Sure enough, those who attacked Zishan once again used the stone token to escape from the stone platform in the Heavenly Palace in a sorry state, just like last time.

Soon, news of the failed second attack on Purple Mountain spread throughout the Holy City, and the Holy Lords of those Holy Land families once again fled back in disarray.

Moreover, the noble families of the holy lands suffered further losses, causing the world to be shaken once again.

Subsequently, more concrete news emerged that many of the older generation had been completely annihilated by the sound waves of the Boundless Bell, and even several powerful figures at the Saint Lord level had been seriously injured.

Before attacking Zishan, the various holy land families reached an agreement with the thirteen bandits of the Northern Region, using half of the supreme imperial artifact—the Devouring Demon Jar—in an attempt to break through Zishan. However, they ultimately failed.

Finally, it was the Devouring Demon Jar that unleashed its mysterious and unpredictable power at the most critical moment, blocking the Imperial Weapon Power of the Beginningless Bell. Otherwise, the Holy Lord who went to attack Purple Mountain would probably have perished there.

Although the Yao Guang Holy Land possesses the Dragon Pattern Black Gold Cauldron, the Hengyu Furnace of the Ancient Jiang Family, and the Void Mirror of the Ancient Ji Family, these three imperial weapons require suppression of their foundation and cannot be used at any time.

Therefore, relying solely on half of the Emperor Weapon Devouring Demon Jar is naturally insufficient to contend with the awakened Supreme Emperor Artifact, the Beginningless Bell.

"Alas, greed knows no bounds. The first time the Boundless Bell was a warning to you all, yet you still dare to dream of obtaining the Boundless Bell and the Great Emperor's Divine Treasure. Be careful not to break your teeth." Yuan Changqing shook his head, looking at all this with nothing but sighs.

The failure of this attack on Zishan shocked the world. As a result, the Holy City once again became the focus of attention, with everyone wanting to see whether the holy families would abandon the opportunities within Zishan or continue their attack.

At the end of the immortal path, who stands at the peak? A single glance at the beginningless Dao reveals emptiness.

This sentence fully expresses the achievements of the ancient emperor Wushi, who was unrivaled throughout history. The legacy he left behind could be used to create another holy land.
