As everyone looked over, they saw that DouDou was holding an ancient scroll made of special animal hide. The edges of the scroll were already somewhat damaged, exuding the vicissitudes of time.
A treasure.
Inheritance.
These two words hold a fatal attraction for any Soul Master.
"What do you mean, a lost treasure?"
"And what is the Land of Inheritance?"
Not only in the main seating area, but also in many private rooms, there were suppressed gasps and discussions.
DouDou smiled slightly, seemingly quite satisfied with everyone's reaction.
She cleared her throat and continued to explain.
"According to the ancient records of my Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, ten thousand years ago, the Douluo Continent experienced a golden age that far surpassed the present."
"In that era, Soul Masters and sects flourished, and geniuses emerged in great numbers."
"Even the legendary gods have performed miracles and bestowed their legacy on many occasions!"
"Many of the soul tools we use today, and even some powerful soul guidance arrays, can be traced back to their origins and are products of that glorious era."
The audience listened with rapt attention, as if they were witnessing a magnificent scene from ten thousand years ago.
However, DouDou's tone changed, revealing a hint of regret.
"But for some unknown reason, the long river of history was forcibly cut off ten thousand years ago, and the once glorious civilization came to an abrupt end."
"Many powerful sects and influential figures have vanished without a trace, as if they had evaporated from the face of the earth."
"The methods for creating those magical soul tools, along with many powerful traditions, have all been lost as a result!"
Inside the auction hall, the atmosphere became somewhat heavy as people imagined that long-forgotten history, their hearts filled with bewilderment.
DouDou continued.
"However, it is precisely because of this that countless ruins and secret realms have been left on the continent."
"Many powerful Soul Masters, when exploring the world, will discover these relics left by their predecessors by chance."
"Among those ruins, they obtained many precious treasures, including powerful soul tools, and even some magical items that could change their own destiny, and even the inheritance of martial soul bloodlines!"
These words were like a boulder thrown into a calm lake, creating ripples all around.
"I see. No wonder so many Soul Masters like to explore those remote and desolate places."
"I once heard that a distant cousin of mine originally had mediocre martial soul aptitude, but after traveling for several years, his martial soul mutated when he returned, greatly increasing his strength. He even produced several soul tools that we had never seen before!"
"So, this scroll is very likely a map pointing to a certain ruin?!"
Discussions rose and fell, and many people's eyes gleamed with fervor.
Inside the private room where Tang San was.
Yu Xiaogang's expression became somewhat complicated when he heard Dou Dou introduce the scroll.
He turned sharply to look at Flander, his voice trembling slightly.
"Old Fu, this picture..."
"Isn't this the one we found in that cave on the edge of the Star Dou Great Forest back then?"
"Why did you put it out for sale?"
Upon hearing this, Flander's face showed a hint of embarrassment.
He rubbed his hands together and chuckled.
"Xiaogang, let me explain."
"We've had this picture for over a decade now."
"Over the years, I've spent a lot of time studying it."
"I compared those scribbles on the paper with ancient books and searched for them everywhere, and finally managed to understand some of them."
Flanders paused, then sighed.
"Moreover, I did find some clues."
"For example, the area it points to is roughly in the northwest of the Heaven Dou Empire, near a deserted mountain range close to the Star Luo Empire."
"I also found several suspected locations based on the markings on the map."
"But what was the result? Nothing at all?"
"It's either an ordinary soul beast mountain range, or some abandoned ruins that have long been emptied out."
"I don't know how much manpower and resources I've invested in this broken map over the years!"
Flanders grew angrier as he spoke, and slapped his thigh.
"Sometimes I wonder if I haven't gotten the key clues! And rather than letting it rot in my hands, I might as well take it out and exchange it for some real resources."
"The academy is short of money lately, so why not improve the little monsters' meals and buy them some training equipment? Wouldn't that be better than guarding this illusory thing?"
Yu Xiaogang listened to Flander's explanation without saying a word.
His thoughts seemed to drift back to more than a decade ago.
At that time, the trio was full of vigor and adventured across the continent together. They did indeed discover many relics left by their predecessors by chance and gained some benefits.
This animal hide scroll is one of them.
However, despite their long research, they were unable to truly unravel the secret.
At this moment, not only did memories resurface, but a beautiful image also appeared in his mind. His face fell, and he couldn't help but feel a little lost!
After a moment of silence, Yu Xiaogang sighed softly.
"Oh well, let's just sell it then."
"You were the one who discovered this back then, so it's up to you to decide what to do with it."
On the auction stage, seeing that the atmosphere in the room had been stirred up to its extreme, DouDou spoke again.
"Moreover, according to the consignor of this auction item, who is also the original owner of this treasure map."
"He also possesses several crucial clues about this treasure map, which will also be auctioned along with the map!"
“Our auction house has sent people to conduct a preliminary verification of these clues, and we can confirm that these clues are true.”
