Ye Chen also looked over, only to see a fist-sized jade wall appear in the auctioneer's hand. Numerous carvings were engraved on the jade wall, and one could faintly make out a vague figure seated on it.
Buzz!
As soon as the jade disc appeared, it stirred up a gust of wind. It shone brightly and turned into a dazzling pillar of light that soared into the sky. An indescribable pressure spread out like ripples.
"What a terrifying pressure."
Ye Chen's brows twitched. He could feel his Yuan Sea trembling. It wasn't because the pressure was too strong, but because there was an indescribable power.
It was as if a divine dragon was looking down on an ant. It was innate.
Seeing the expressions on everyone's faces, the auctioneer purposely raised his voice and said in a clear voice, "Ladies and gentlemen, this piece of jade is called the Northern Heavens Jade Annulus. It was excavated from the depths of the Twilight Plains some time ago. After our appraisal, this Northern Heavens Jade Annulus was most likely left behind by the Northern Heavens Saint, who had fallen in the Twilight Plains."
So it was left behind by a Saint!
Ye Chen suddenly came to a realization. Those who had stepped into the Saint realm already had a completely new understanding of the world. Every single one of their movements carried an indomitable might.
This was a kind of pressure from the realm, and it had nothing to do with one's strength.
The auction house was suddenly shaken. Countless people's eyes turned red. Recently, there had been rumors about the cave of a powerhouse, and the sudden appearance of the Northern Jade Disc.
Anyone could guess that the Northern Jade Disc was related to the cave of a powerhouse. If they could obtain the Northern Jade Disc, they would have the upper hand and know the secret of the cave before anyone else.
An item left behind by a Saint was enough to make everyone go crazy.
"It seems that the information we have is far behind others. This cave of a powerhouse is most likely the one mentioned in the mission scroll." Su Tianxin's tone was solemn.
It was no wonder that the eight major forces had gathered in Black City. It turned out that the cave was left behind by a Saint Realm expert. This mission had surpassed the original level and was enough to be assessed as a Heaven Rank mission.
"What's the situation now? Are we going to give up on the mission?"
Qin Tian was a little worried. Although they weren't weak, there was still a big gap between them and the other forces.
"Don't be hasty. Let's observe the situation first."
Su Tianxin looked at the auction stage. At this moment, the auction had already begun. The bids were endless and soon, the price had reached 300,000 primordial stones.
The price of the Northern Heavens Jade Annulus was more than just the title of a Saint expert.
"Five hundred thousand!"
Gu Yan immediately increased the price by a full two hundred thousand, showing the Tianfen Pavilion's determination to get this item.
"Our Thick Earth Pavilion is also very interested in this item. I'm sorry, but I'll bid 700,000 yuan stones."
But this time, the Tianfen Pavilion obviously wouldn't succeed so easily. Just as Gu Yan's voice fell, Wu Man also immediately bid, showing the Thick Earth Pavilion's determination.
"My Water Crystal Palace offers eight hundred thousand Yuan Stones." While the two were fighting, the Water Crystal Palace, which had been keeping a low profile, finally made its move.
In the auction house, everyone sighed when they saw the Crystal Palace taking action. Although the Northern Heavens Jade Annulus was precious, it wasn't worth it to offend the Crystal Palace.
Even though the cave abode was precious, compared to his life, the latter was obviously more important.
"It seems that we can only watch from the sidelines this time."
Ye Chen shrugged his shoulders at the four people. Although he was rich, compared to the entire sect, he was still somewhat lacking.
The bidding became louder and louder. In the end, Gu Yan won the Northern Heavens Jade Annulus with a sky-high price of 1.2 million Yuan Stones.
"Alright, today's auction is over. Everyone can come and collect their treasures." The auctioneer chuckled a few times and quickly left the auction stage.
The people who had won their treasures got up and walked towards the back of the auction stage. Ye Chen also bought some other spiritual materials, stood up, and walked behind the curtain.
"Enjoy your last moments of life."
A cold voice sounded as Wu Man walked over from the side. When he passed by Ye Chen, a terrifying power of flesh and blood rushed towards Ye Chen with a sinister killing intent.
Behind Wu Man, Gu Yan also had a cold smile on his face. He crossed his arms in front of his chest and looked at Ye Chen with a pitiful expression. This time, Wu Man was really angry. This Ye Chen was dead for sure.
Boom!
A resounding dragon's roar resounded throughout the entire auction house. Wu Man's body retreated a few steps, and he pressed his hand against the stone pillar. His strength was so great that it actually left a palm print on the hard stone pillar.
"You have guts."
Wu Man said coldly. He stepped forward and walked directly towards the exit. The smiles on the faces of the people from Tianfen Pavilion became even wider.
"Reckless fool."
One of them muttered with a mocking look in his eyes. After leaving the auction house, no one could protect Ye Chen.
Su Tianxin moved closer to Ye Chen and said in a low voice, "I remember that you know a disguise technique. Later, we will cover you. You change your appearance and try to fool them."
"No need."
Unexpectedly, Ye Chen replied resolutely, "Even if I fool them, Wu Man will still attack you. Instead of running away, it's better to face the attack head-on. I also want to see how powerful the super genius of the Thick Earth Pavilion is."
Taking a step forward, Ye Chen walked out of the auction house, heading towards a remote place.
Suddenly, several figures followed closely behind him, but Ye Chen didn't care. He sneered in his heart. Instead, he walked faster and faster, like a phantom, passing through the crowd.
"Ye Chen, you knew this would happen, and you still dared to provoke me. You really deserve to die."
A voice was heard as a ferocious fist rushed towards Ye Chen, causing his body to freeze and come to a halt.
"I have to say that I admire Brother Ye's courage. However, after tonight, I'm afraid you will become a cold corpse."
At this moment, in front of Ye Chen, a figure crossed his arms in front of his chest. On his bewitching face, there was a faint mocking smile. He looked at Ye Chen as if he was looking at four people.
The newcomers were naturally Gu Yan and Wu Man.
Not far away, the crowd that came out of the auction house finally rushed over. Once out of the auction house, life and death were up to fate. Ye Chen had offended Gu Yan and Wu Man, and it was time for him to receive his retribution.
"Brother Gu, you wait on the side first. I want to personally deal with this kid. I want to see how much power the Flame Iron Gloves can exert in his hands."
Wu Man's words made Gu Yan's face change slightly, but after thinking about it, he immediately nodded and said, "Of course, but this kid is very crafty. Brother Wu, please be careful."
"Don't worry. I, Wu Man, have killed countless kids with a glib tongue. In the face of absolute strength, all schemes and tricks are just fleeting clouds."
Wu Man sneered a few times. These two people had already seen Ye Chen as a fish on the chopping board. They could kill him as they pleased, and there was no pressure at all.
However, at this moment, the crowd didn't notice that in Ye Chen's eyes, a cold golden light was released. Killing intent was revealed, and a high fighting spirit was ignited, soaring into the sky.
