Covering the Sky: I am the White Tiger Immortal Elixir
Chapter 33 Holy City
The Holy City of the Northern Region is a magnificent ancient city that has stood here since the beginning of recorded history.
This is a vast and pristine land, rich in spiritual energy, many times higher than other places.
The Holy City holds great appeal for cultivators, attracting cultivators from the Northern Plains and even the Central Plains year-round.
Bai Qi used the Origin Technique to disguise the appearances of Jiang Taixu and Hei Huang.
He walked brazenly through the holy city, using Duan De's face as his own.
Jiang Taixu had white hair and a youthful face, with an air of otherworldly wisdom; he was clearly a highly accomplished Taoist master.
Black Emperor was disguised as a husky by Bai Qi.
The dog stared at himself in the mirror for a long time: "His looks aren't bad, but why do his eyes look a little dim-witted?"
The holy city is bustling, where romantic places coexist with schools for preaching, and the mundane life of ordinary people intertwines with the aura of the immortals.
The city was bustling with people, half of whom were cultivators, so Bai Qi and his two companions were not particularly noticeable.
Along the way, Bai Qi heard a lot of news about himself.
"A near-powerful figure from the Purple Mansion Holy Land died because he divined the whereabouts of the Northern White Tiger!"
"It is said that his death was extremely gruesome, suffering unimaginable backlash, bleeding from all seven orifices, and his primordial spirit exploding!"
"Several other holy sites also saw their elders die suddenly while trying to predict the Northern White Tiger!"
Those aristocratic families from sacred lands dared not attempt divination because they feared the Azure Emperor's heart within the Southern White Tiger.
But Bei Baihu is different; he doesn't have any of the Emperor's relics on him.
So the old-timers took action, trying to divine the whereabouts of the Northern White Tiger so that their own prodigy could go and intercept it.
Then they all died.
The ways they died were varied and bizarre, but without exception, they were all incredibly tragic.
Some bled from all seven orifices, some had their primordial spirits shattered, and some were stiff all over, turning to dust with the slightest breeze.
The news sent shockwaves through the Eastern Wilderness.
"Even divination of the shape of the Northern White Tiger cannot prevent such a terrible backlash!"
"It's true that the Divine Mark Purple Gold is an exclusive sacred artifact of the Great Emperor, but it's not yet an Ultimate Emperor Weapon!"
"Could it be that the two tigers, one from the North and one from the South, have already met and shared the Demon Emperor's relics?"
Discussions rose and fell, and all sorts of speculations flew around.
Bai Qi not only heard news about himself, but also about many other legendary figures from the holy lands and aristocratic families.
Some prodigies have already broken into the Four Extremes Secret Realm and begun their journey through the Eastern Wilderness, leaving behind their formidable reputations.
Black Emperor looked around, occasionally lifting his hind leg to pee against the base of the Holy City wall.
"It would be a miracle if they could have predicted your arrival."
"Leaving aside the Azure Emperor's heart, that green bronze cauldron alone is enough to give them a hard time."
He had some guesses about the green bronze cauldron, knowing its origins and that it was very likely enormous.
Let alone the first level of the Sendai Heaven, even if it backfired and killed the Great Sage, it would be as easy as playing around.
There are only a handful of weapons that Wushi Zhong could talk about throughout history, which is a very small range.
He had a few candidates in mind.
That bastard Black Emperor has a keen sense of smell and a sharp mind.
Give him a clue, and he'll climb up the ladder like a hairy AI.
No one flies within the city; even cultivators strictly adhere to the city rules.
Amidst the bustling crowds, Bai Qi and his two companions arrived at an auction house called Lihuaxuan.
The Holy City has seven major auction houses, all of which have ancestral families in the Holy Land. They take a 10% commission and strictly keep the seller's identity confidential.
Mid-sized auction houses like Lihuaxuan, in order to survive in this competitive environment, offer even lower commission rates.
Lihuaxuan claims to be keeping the seller's identity a secret.
But if the Holy Land families press them for answers, they might not be able to withstand it.
But nobody cares about that.
Since the cultivators who come to Lihua Pavilion for auction are unlikely to bring anything of value, there's no need for the holy land families to inquire about it.
Bai Qi chose this place precisely for this reason.
If his identity isn't exposed, wouldn't Duan De's face-changing be for nothing?
Baojianfeng comes from the sharpening, and the fragrance of plum blossoms comes from bitter cold.
If Duan De doesn't suffer a little, how can we show the value of his timely assistance?
Jiang Taixu and the Black Emperor were unaware of Duan De's identity and assumed that Bai Qi was distressed about the extra half-percent commission.
Lihua Pavilion is equipped with a spatial magic array, and the building is exceptionally spacious, capable of accommodating 30,000 people.
"Esteemed guests, would you like to consign your treasures for auction, or participate in the auction itself?"
"Consigned for auction."
"This way, please." The manager of Lihua Pavilion led Bai Qi and the other two into the inner room.
The interior was elegantly furnished, with several ancient paintings hanging on the walls and sandalwood incense burning in the corner, creating a serene and refined atmosphere.
The steward served tea before asking, "May I ask what you two gentlemen wish to auction?"
"Our appraisers are all seasoned professionals, capable of providing a fair valuation for any treasure."
Without wasting words, Bai Qi patted the Fire God Furnace and took out an ancient creature that was over two meters tall.
The source that sealed him was only a finger's thickness, making it hard not to doubt whether this layer of source could still function as a seal.
In reality, the source that sealed this ancient creature was not so thin.
Bai Qi felt that Hu Xin would be too poor, so he smashed all the sources that had originally sealed him and took them away.
The source of the sealed ancient creatures was later added by the ancient clan of Zishan.
There are ten ancient creatures in Baiqi.
These ancient clansmen were all knocked unconscious and disemboweled by Jiang Taixu, who then hid the Emperor's Path Small Killing Array inside.
Upon seeing the appearance of the ten creatures within the source, the manager of Lihua Pavilion and the appraiser were so frightened that they retreated repeatedly.
"Ancient creature?!"
The northern region is rich in mineral resources, and occasionally ancient creatures are unearthed there.
Whenever an ancient creature is born, it is often accompanied by a bloody storm.
Those who can be sealed are all powerful individuals, and it would be difficult to suppress them without the help of Sendai.
The major holy lands and families don't lack the desire to capture ancient creatures alive; it's just too difficult.
The ancient creatures that were unearthed have an exceptionally bad temper when they wake up and will frantically attack all living things.
Even if they could be captured alive, they would rather die a violent death than be captured and studied.
It's unrealistic to expect to summon sacred and imperial weapons to suppress the occasionally appearing ancient creatures.
Over time, this led to living ancient creatures becoming legendary commodities that were priceless and unavailable for purchase.
The manager of Lihua Pavilion broke out in a cold sweat.
Even the seven major auction houses have never handled such an item.
"Distinguished guest, are these ten ancient creatures... safe?"
They were worried, after all, this thin layer of source didn't look safe at all.
Bai Qi grinned, revealing a mouthful of white teeth: "Look at what you're saying! I'm just a merchant, would I use raw meat to harm people?"
"Where can you find ancient creatures now? They're all from the Primordial Ancient Mine. If I weren't short of money, I wouldn't be here to auction them off."
Bai Qi planned to auction off two ancient creatures first, so that the Holy Land families would know how valuable this batch of goods was.
An ancient creature at the half-step Dao-slaying realm—if the news gets out, those Dao lineages will go crazy.
This is excellent material that can be taken home and suppressed under an extreme imperial weapon or a holy weapon for slow and careful study.
In this era of arduous progress, severing one's path is an insurmountable barrier, having blocked and killed countless prodigies.
If a breakthrough can be found through ancient organisms, the value would be immeasurable.
Soon after, Lihuaxuan announced that it would auction off the ancient creature sealed within the source.
The holy city trembled.
