It looks like a beautiful seashell that you can find anywhere on the beach, only it's a bit bigger and made of better material.

"This is……"

"Are you mistaken? Why did you bring up a seashell?"

Could there be a priceless pearl hidden inside this seashell?

Not only were the mainland Soul Masters completely baffled, but even the sea Soul Masters themselves looked at each other, unable to recognize the origin of this thing.

Ning Rongrong looked at the puzzled expressions on everyone's faces and a mysterious smile appeared on her lips.

"This object is called the 'Tide-Listening Shell'."

She gently took the seashell out of the jade box and held it in her palm.

"It is neither a spiritual medicine, nor a mineral, nor a soul bone. It does not contain any energy that can be directly absorbed by a soul master."

These words only confused everyone more.

An item with no potential for sale? And it's the grand finale? Are you kidding me?

Ning Rongrong paused for a moment, then continued, "However, it possesses an ability that any Soul Master dreams of, yet is utterly inconceivable."

Her voice carried a melodious, guiding quality, as if she were telling an ancient legend.

"By possessing this shell and immersing your divine sense within it, you can... hear the sound of the ocean within a hundred miles."

"The sound of the sea?"

Someone couldn't help but ask, "What does this mean? Are you listening to the sound of the waves? We hear it every day!"

A burst of good-natured laughter rang out in the hall.

Ning Rongrong shook her head, her expression solemn:

"No, it's not the sound of waves. It's the true 'heartbeat' and 'breath' of the sea."

"You can discover where the ocean currents conceal the treasures of sunken ships;"

"You can find out where the fish are most concentrated, and whether rare spirit beasts may be hiding among them;"

"You can even sense in advance when a storm powerful enough to overturn an island will form and from where it will come!"

"It's like the eyes and ears given by the sea, allowing you to truly become one with the azure that nurtured you!"

"And according to legend, if one can achieve perfect resonance with this shell, one can even hear a whisper from the sea god."

Ning Rongrong's last words were like a thunderclap from a clear sky, exploding throughout the entire venue, especially in the minds of all the Sea Soul Masters!

The entire auction hall was deathly silent.

All the Sea Soul Masters, whether ordinary or powerful island lords, suddenly stood up!

Their eyes were fixed on the ordinary, moon-white seashell in Ning Rongrong's hand, their gazes filled with shock, fervor, and disbelief!
