“Maybe there is something that can be used.”
Shen Yuan pondered secretly in his heart.
Even Emperor Donghua could not withstand the oppression brought by the unique characteristics of this world, let alone the practitioners in the lower realms.
At present, Shen Yuan possesses many magical powers. If he can find the corresponding master of these powers, he can use the information gap to achieve a certain goal.
“For example, if the Corpse Reincarnation Divine Power is used for one’s own purposes and one returns to this era, the Lord of Beimang Mountain, who is the master of the Corpse Reincarnation Divine Power, will inevitably be forced to fall asleep due to the unique characteristics of all worlds.
When the time comes, I will go to Beimang Mountain, and maybe I can use the corpse reincarnation ability to control the many ghosts born in Beimang Mountain."
The more he thought, the brighter Shen Yuan's eyes became.
Just as Shen Yuan's mind was wavering, the beautiful auctioneer took out another treasure box from the void.
The treasure box was slowly opened, and what appeared before everyone's eyes was an empty darkness. It seemed as if the inside of the treasure box had turned into a black hole that swallowed up everything.
Many practitioners showed doubts and uncertainty on their faces. Only the practitioners from various forces on the meteorite suddenly changed their expressions and shouted in surprise:
"Sky Devouring Stone!"
"Why would the auction of all realms offer such a treasure?"
"For a treasure like this, there's no hype for the auction in advance?"
Shen Yuan's eyes moved slightly. He had never heard of the name of the Sky-Devouring Stone, but judging from the postures of the practitioners from various forces, the origin of this treasure seemed to be unusual.
As if seeing the doubt in Shen Yuan's eyes, Ji Zhaoyang also suppressed the shock on his face and explained to Shen Yuan:
"Fellow Daoist Shen may not know that this Sky Devouring Stone is not from my Xuanhuang Realm, but comes from the upper realm."
As he spoke, Ji Zhaoyang pointed to the boundless starry sky above his head.
“The Sky Devouring Stone was born in the Ascension Channel connecting the heavens and the upper realms. It was formed by the collision of the power of the upper realm and the heavens.
If it were placed in the upper realm, the Sky Devouring Stone would be enough to attract scrambles among the powerful earthly immortals, because this strange stone has the ability to open up a cave!"
As soon as these words were spoken, Shen Yuan immediately understood why all parties were so surprised.
In the heyday of cultivation tens of thousands of years ago, when power developed to a certain extent, it was not difficult to open up a blessed land with the help of Taoist tools or some treasure that brought good fortune and luck.
But the cave heaven is a completely different concept. The self-generated heaven and earth within the cave heaven is almost equivalent to a small world. The master of the cave heaven can even control the cave heaven and travel through the void. It is an absolute strategic treasure.
If a practitioner uses the Space-Devouring Stone to open up a cave, and uses it as the foundation to practice the path of Earthly Immortal, there is a high probability that he will be able to reach the realm of Earthly Immortal in the future.
Faced with such a fairy treasure, all the Ten Holy Lands and the Thirty-six Holy Lands would be tempted. After all, no one would complain about having too much heritage.
But after Shen Yuan learned about the value of the Sky-Devouring Stone, his interest dropped significantly.
He mastered the magical power of Hutian and could use the talisman to open the sky. Opening up the cave was a piece of cake for Shen Yuan, and he didn't need the so-called Sky-Devouring Stone at all.
“The immortal treasure of the upper realm, the Sky Devouring Stone, can help practitioners open up caves and achieve the position of the master of caves!
I don’t need to say much about how precious this item is.”
"This treasure was auctioned by a distinguished guest who contacted our Luobao Chamber of Commerce.
Immortal treasures are precious, and their value cannot be measured by ordinary spirit stones or immortal jades, so this distinguished guest only wants to exchange for various rare treasures. You can start making your offers as much as you want. "
As soon as the auctioneer finished speaking, a real person from a cave-heaven force shouted out a bid.
"Eighth-rank heavenly treasure Nine-Element Spiritual Spring!"
"You want to exchange a mere Nine Yuan Spiritual Spring for the Sky Devouring Stone? I, the Ten Directions Daoist, offer you a top-grade Daoist artifact, the Sky-Devouring Mirror!"
"I, Maoshan Fudi, offer three Six Ding and Six Jia Divine General Talismans, which can summon the guardian gods from the upper realm to protect you."
One after another, the blessed lands began to offer prices, and every time a treasure was mentioned in an offer, it would cause exclamations from all parties.
You should know that in the first half of the auction, there were only two eighth-rank natural treasures, and all the Taoist artifacts auctioned were of low or medium quality without exception, which was enough to show how precious the treasures were.
As for the treasure like the Six Ding and Six Jia Divine Generals Talisman, which can summon the guardian gods from the upper realm, it is even more unheard of.
No matter whether it is an eighth-rank natural treasure, a top-grade Taoist weapon, or a divine talisman, they are all sufficient to serve as a treasure to suppress the sect's foundation, and their value cannot be measured by ordinary fairy jade.
For some specific forces, the value of these treasures is even greater than that of the immortal artifact Star-Moving Flag.
Shen Yuan had no intention of getting involved, but the offers from various parties opened his eyes.
Shen Yuan's actions surprised Ji Zhaoyang who was standing by.
In Ji Zhaoyang's opinion, the Luoyun Sect behind Shen Yuan is the Yin vein of the world, and should need treasures like the Sky-Devouring Stone to open up the cave sky.
"Fellow Daoist Shen doesn't seem to be interested in this Sky Devouring Stone?"
Shen Yuan just said calmly: "I have made great achievements in the way of space."
Ji Zhaoyang was startled for a moment, then he laughed and shook his head, saying: "I almost forgot that Fellow Daoist Shen's spatial magical power can deceive Master Caiyuan.
When Fellow Daoist Shen enters the realm of Dao Lord in the future, it won’t be difficult to open up a cave heaven.”
“Thinking about it this way, the Sky Devouring Stone is indeed of little value to Fellow Daoist Shen.
After all, apart from opening up the cave, the remaining value of the Sky-Devouring Stone is only the trace of the Qi of the superior heaven and earth and the ten directions of the universe contained within it.
Even though the Ten Directions Universe Qi is among the best in the upper heaven and earth Qi, using the Sky Devouring Stone to refine that trace of the Ten Directions Universe Qi is still too wasteful. "
Ji Zhaoyang's casual words made Shen Yuan's expression change.
"The Sky Devouring Stone contains the Qi of the Ten Directions Universe?"
Shen Yuan was very familiar with the name of the Ten Directions Universe Qi. This was the superior Qi of heaven and earth that far surpassed the Qingyuan Xuan Zhen Qi. Its knowledge of space was among the best in all realms.
Moreover, the more the Ten Directions Universe Qi there are, the greater the spatial force that can be mobilized. There was once a Golden Immortal from the Upper Realm who used a massive amount of the Ten Directions Universe Qi to open up a heaven beyond the Thirty-Six Heavens, and used it to ascend to the position of Heavenly Venerate.
It can be said that the Qi of the Ten Directions Universe is the spiritual object that is closest to the avenue of space among all the realms.
“Of course, the Sky Devouring Stone can open up the cave heaven only by relying on the Qi of the Ten Directions Universe.
It’s just that the Ten Directions Universe Qi in the Sky Devouring Stone is too scarce. The Ten Directions Universe Qi extracted from a Sky Devouring Stone is almost undetectable, and it is far inferior to using the Sky Devouring Stone directly to open up the cave heaven.”
As he spoke, Ji Zhaoyang looked quite regretful.
How could he not know the preciousness of the Qi of the Ten Directions Universe?
The Sky-Devouring Stone can open up a cave, but it is ultimately a thing from the lower world.
However, the Qi of the ten directions universe is the foundation of all heavens. Even in the upper realm where the barriers of the world are strong, one can still open up a world of heavens. The two are incomparable.
However, the content of Ten Directions Universe Qi in the Sky-Devouring Stone is so scarce that even a Sky-Devouring Stone as big as a mountain cannot extract a complete portion of Ten Directions Universe Qi.
Just as Ji Zhaoyang sighed, he did not notice that Shen Yuan's eyes were already fixed on the Sky-Devouring Stone in the treasure box.
As he secretly mobilized the Nine Breaths to Subdue the Qi, Shen Yuan vaguely felt an imperceptible fluctuation of the Qi of heaven and earth coming from within the Sky-Devouring Stone.
This wave of fluctuation was enveloped by the boundary force of the outer layer of the Sky-Devouring Stone. If Shen Yuan had not actively used the Nine Breaths to Subdue the Qi, he would not even have been able to detect its existence.
After careful inspection, Shen Yuan was able to sense that although the wisp of Qi of heaven and earth within the Sky-Devouring Stone was extremely weak, its interior seemed to encompass the vastness of the heavens and the universe.
"It's really the Qi of the Ten Directions Universe!"
Shen Yuan's eyes showed surprise.
To others, this bit of Ten Directions Universe Qi in the Space-Time Stone is too weak to be used at all.
But for Shen Yuan, this problem is not a problem at all. Shen Yuan has the Nine Breaths Qi Subduing Great Divine Power. As long as there is a trace of any Heaven and Earth Qi, Shen Yuan can refine it from the source of the Dao of Qi Refining, even the top Heaven and Earth Qi is no problem.
The Qi of the Ten Directions Universe is just a more special kind of the Qi of the superior heaven and earth. With more effort, it will surely be evolved. By then, Shen Yuan will be able to master the Qi of heaven and earth, which is known as the foundation of all heavens.
“If you have enough Ten Directions Universe Qi, you can start expanding the Fang Cun Secret Realm. Blessed Land, Cave Heaven, and Small World are far from being its limits.
Maybe, like the celestial master in the myth, he could open up a new world beyond the thirty-six heavens in the upper realm."
During the time that Shen Yuan was thinking, the offers from outside had reached an astonishing level.
"I, Zhu Mingyao, have produced a third-level golden elixir. After taking it, practitioners can reach the realm of refining emptiness and achieve the great path!"
"The Three Elements Extremely True Heaven is willing to offer one or two ounces of Enlightenment Tea. Tasting this tea can deduce a foundationless magical power to the third realm, and even a Taoist magical power can be deduced to the second realm!"
And at this moment, a cold voice slowly sounded.
"Xiao Youqingxu Zhitian is willing to give out ten portions of Qingyuan Xuanzhenqi!"
As soon as these words were spoken, the entire auction house fell into a brief silence.
The Pure Source Mysterious True Qi of the Supreme Heaven and Earth is a treasure for enlightenment that is famous in all realms. Although it is not as effective as one or two cups of enlightenment tea, it is better in terms of quantity and duration.
Use the Qingyuan Xuan Zhen Qi as a consumable. Ten portions of Qingyuan Xuan Zhen Qi are enough to sustain a Zhenjun's hundred-year retreat.
But no one would waste such a gift, because once one gathers a complete set of Qingyuan Xuanzhen Qi to refine oneself, one can permanently improve one's understanding. It can be said to be a treasure that cultivators from all realms dream of.
"Ten portions of Qingyuan Xuanzhenqi?"
"Isn't this probably the result of nearly a thousand years of accumulation of Xiaoyou Qingxu Heaven?"
"Not only that! Don't forget that all the True Immortal Dao Lords in Xiaoyou Qingxu Heaven need Qingyuan Xuanzhenqi to comprehend the Great Dao, and the consumption itself is not small.
These ten portions of Qingyuan Xuanzhenqi are probably the result of nearly ten thousand years of accumulation. "
Even the auctioneer in the auction venue couldn't help but be stunned.
The next moment, she seemed to hear a voice beside her ear. After listening attentively, the auctioneer opened his red lips and said loudly:
“The distinguished guest who is auctioning the Sky Devouring Stone claimed that he would be willing to trade it if he could bring out other enlightenment treasures of higher value.
If there are no other enlightenment treasures, the Sky Devouring Stone will be traded with Xiao Youqingxuzhitian. "
After these words were spoken, all parties frowned and said nothing.
There are still several enlightenment treasures in the Xuanhuang Realm whose effects are greater than those of the Qingyuan Xuanzhen Qi, but either these treasures are rare in number or cannot be compared with ten portions of the Qingyuan Xuanzhen Qi.
Either its value is far greater than that of the Sky-Devouring Stone and it is not worth using here.
For a moment, the auction fell into a brief silence.
But soon, the silence was broken.
“Twelve portions of Qingyuan Xuanzhenqi!”
A dull voice sounded in the empty illusion. All parties were startled at first, and then looked towards the place where the voice came from with shocked expressions.
It was box number two.
"The person who spoke was that Luo Yun Daozi."
"Twelve portions of Qingyuan Xuanzhenqi? Did he rob Xiaoyou Qingxuzhitian?"
"Even if they really robbed someone, they might not be able to come up with so much Qingyuan Xuanzhen Qi. This is not just cabbage."
"Could it be that the so-called Luoyun Sect is the true orthodox sect of Xiaoyou Qingxu Heaven?"
All parties were moving, and Qing Yu, a saint girl of some degree of Qingxu, was now frowning and looking coldly towards the No. 2 box.
"Except for the small Qingxu Heaven in Xuanhuang Realm, it is impossible for there to be so much Qingyuan Xuanzhen Qi. Taoist Luoyun, please don't make such a joke!"
The corners of Shen Yuan's mouth curled up slightly.
"Who told you that only a person with a little Qingxu talent can have Qingyuan Xuanzhenqi?"
As he spoke, Shen Yuan glanced inside his own secret realm.
The Qingyuan Xuanzhen Qi had already been integrated into the Fangcun Secret Realm, transforming into clear and turbid air.
Under the unremitting development of the Nine Breaths to Subdue the Qi supernatural power day and night, the Qingyuan Xuan Qi that originally only occupied a part of the sky has already increased countless times, and at a glance it looks like a blue sky.
Upon seeing this, the auctioneer quickly said:
"Qingyuan Xuanzhenqi is extremely precious. If the guest in the No. 2 Tianzi box is interested in bidding, please show your proof of the Qi of Heaven and Earth."
As soon as the auctioneer finished speaking, Shen Yuan waved his sleeves lightly and a stream of green air, like a gauze, rolled down into the auction venue.
In an instant, the souls of all the practitioners in the auction hall trembled, and a sense of clarity surged into their hearts. The original numerous distracting thoughts seemed to be swept away at this moment.
“It’s really the Qingyuan Xuanzhenqi!”
"It is worthy of being a treasure for enlightenment!"
"There's not even a container to hold it. What a waste of natural resources!"
"Stop talking nonsense. If you put it in a container, can you still feel the effect of the Enlightenment Treasure?"
"That's true."
Saint Maiden Qingyu was stunned. She thought that Shen Yuan was deliberately making the offer to target Xiao Youqingxu Zhitian, but who would have thought that Shen Yuan could really take out so much Qingyuan Xuan Zhenqi at will.
The expression on his cold face froze for a long while before he gritted his teeth and spoke to Shen Yuan:
"It was Qingyu who was rude!"
In the center of the auction venue, at the moment when the Qingyuan Xuan Qi appeared, Caiyuan Zhenjun took it all into his palm and took out exquisite jade bottles to pack them.
"It's exactly twelve portions of Qingyuan Xuanzhenqi. I wonder if there are any higher offers?"
There was silence in the void illusion. Ten portions of Qingyuan Xuan Zhen Qi was already an extremely terrifying price, not to mention twelve portions of Qingyuan Xuan Zhen Qi.
It’s not that no one can offer a higher price, but it’s not worth it for a piece of Sky Devouring Stone.
"In that case, the Sky Devouring Stone will be bought by the distinguished guest in the No. 2 Tianzi Box!"
The auctioneer made the final decision, and the treasure box was respectfully presented to Shen Yuan.
Then, a light golden treasure box fell from the void again.
The auctioneer's expression was more serious than ever before, and he said loudly to everyone:
"The next auction item is the second to last treasure of this auction of all realms, and it is also the finale treasure of the Luobao Chamber of Commerce."
“This item is the 72nd Earthly Fiend’s magical power: Nightmare Prayer, the source of the oldest magic of killing and magic, which can be used to cast a spell to kill people in dreams without being seen.
A magical power of the Earthly Demons can be passed down for tens of thousands of years, creating an ancient Taoist tradition, and its value is immeasurable."
"As per the previous rules, the Disha Magical Power Nightmare Prayer will not be auctioned for Immortal Jade, but only for rare treasures. The auction will begin now!"
As the auctioneer finished speaking, a careless voice sounded again.
"I'm offering one hundred Qingyuan Xuanzhenqi!"
