The strongest person in the Soaring Dragon Celestial Kingdom was only a peak Overarching Heavenly Supreme Celestial, and there were only two of them.
Apart from peak Overarching Heavenly Supreme Celestials, there were no more than ten heaven-rank Overarching Heavenly Supreme Celestials in the Soaring Dragon Celestial Kingdom.
'I know the fourth and seventh princes are accompanied by heaven-rank Overarching Heavenly Supreme Celestials, but I didn't expect the thirteenth prince to be accompanied by a heaven-rank Overarching Heavenly Supreme Celestial as well. Logically speaking, this is impossible … "
After leaving the Sky No. 1 private room, the person in charge of the Nian family's auction house was still puzzled.
Although the Thirteenth Prince was not inferior to the Fourth and Seventh Princes in the Soaring Dragon Celestial Kingdom and was a hindrance to the Fourth and Seventh Princes, not many people were optimistic about the Thirteenth Prince's chances of winning the throne.
This was because the Emperor of the Soaring Dragon Celestial Kingdom suspected that the thirteenth prince was not his biological son. For this reason, he treated the thirteenth prince coldly. He only cared about the fourth and seventh princes so he even assigned a heaven-rank Overarching Heavenly Supreme Celestial to protect them.
As for the thirteenth prince, he only gave him an earth-rank Overarching Heavenly Supreme Celestial.
In the past, whenever he met the Thirteenth Prince, the Thirteenth Prince would always be accompanied by the Earth Stage Overarching Heavenly Supreme Celestial.
However, this time, he did not see the Earth Stage Overarching Heavenly Supreme Celestial. Instead, he saw a new face.
"The person next to the Thirteenth Prince isn't from the Imperial family of the Soaring Dragon Celestial Kingdom … I'm certain there's no such person among the seven heaven stage Overarching Heavenly Supreme Celestials in the Imperial family."
The person in charge of the Nian clan's auction house was also an elder of the Nian clan. Therefore, he knew about the seven heaven Stage Overarching Heavenly Supreme Celestials of the Soaring Dragon Celestial Kingdom through the Nian clan.
But, as he learned,
He was not one of the seven heaven-rank Overarching Heavenly Supreme Celestials in the Soaring Dragon Celestial Kingdom.
"That person … should be an expert that the Thirteenth Prince found elsewhere."
In the end, the person in charge of the Nian family's auction house could only make such a guess. Once he made that guess, he could not help but gasp.
After all, Duan Ling Tian was a Heaven Stage Overarching Heavenly Supreme Celestial.
In the Soaring Dragon Celestial Kingdom, as long as a Heaven Stage Overarching Heavenly Supreme Celestial did not offend the Imperial family, they could do whatever they wanted.
Even the Nian Clan, a top clan in the Soaring Dragon Celestial Kingdom, only had one Heaven Realm Overarching Heavenly Supreme Celestial. Based on this, one could see how rare Heaven Realm Overarching Heavenly Supreme Celestials were in the Soaring Dragon Celestial Kingdom.
Due to this reason, heaven Stage Overarching Heavenly Supreme Celestials enjoyed a high status in the Soaring Dragon Celestial Kingdom.
But now, he saw:
A heaven-rank Overarching Heavenly Supreme Celestial whom Duan Ling Tian had never seen before was standing next to the Thirteenth Prince.
"Everyone says that the Thirteenth Prince is not simple. In some aspects, even the Fourth Prince and the Seventh Prince are far inferior to him … Today, I have seen it for myself. Putting everything else aside, it's impossible for the Fourth Prince and the Seventh Prince to recruit a Heaven Stage Overarching Heavenly Supreme Celestial on their own. "
The person in charge of the Nian family's auction house thought to himself.
At this moment, he realized he had underestimated the Thirteenth Prince.
'We must inform the clan and ask the Clan Leader to inform the Seventh Prince … The fact that a heaven-rank Overarching Heavenly Supreme Celestial has appeared by the Thirteenth Prince's side and isn't sent by the Emperor is enough for the Seventh Prince to take this seriously.
With this thought in mind, the person in charge of the Nian family's auction house took out a Communication Celestial Talisman and sent a message back to the Nian family.
Similar to the Zhou family and the Fourth Prince, the Nian family and the Seventh Prince had a close relationship as well.
After all, the Seventh Prince's mother was the sister of the Clan Leader of the Zhou family.
If the Fourth Prince had the backing of the Zhou Clan when he fought for the throne, then the Seventh Prince had the backing of the Nian Clan when he fought for the throne.
As for the Thirteenth Prince, his mother was not from a prominent family in the Soaring Dragon Celestial Kingdom. Instead, she was brought back by the Emperor of the Soaring Dragon Celestial Kingdom. For this reason, the Thirteenth Prince had no one to rely on and could only rely on himself.
Moreover, due to certain matters, the Emperor of the Soaring Dragon Celestial Kingdom was not 100% certain that the thirteenth prince was his biological son. Due to this reason, the thirteenth prince's path to the throne was fraught with difficulties. Not many people were optimistic about his chances.
Although the Thirteenth Prince was not inferior to the Fourth Prince and the Seventh Prince in all aspects, the Thirteenth Prince was still not confident in his chances.
…
The auction continued in the Nian family's auction house.
As time passed, Duan Lingtian who was in the First Earth Room finally obtained the item he had been waiting for.
It was a profound-grade cultivation method!
"Ladies and gentlemen, this is a profound-grade cultivation method called the Cloudy Dream Celestial Technique …"
A graceful and elegant woman with a seductive voice spoke slowly on the auction stage. As soon as her voice rang in the air, it reverberated throughout the auction house. Even the people in the private rooms could hear her seductive voice clearly.
After introducing the Cloudy Dream Celestial Technique, the beautiful woman raised her voice and said, "The starting price of the Cloudy Dream Celestial Technique is 10,000 supreme Celestial Stones. Each increment must be no less than 5,000 supreme Celestial Stones!"
Duan Lingtian sat by the window of the First Earth Room. He did not participate in the auction.
The price of the profound-grade cultivation method, the Cloudy Dream Celestial Technique, continued to rise. In the end, it was bought by a person in the Earth Room for 90,000 supreme Celestial Stones.
"Congratulations to the guest in the Sixth Earth Room for successfully obtaining the profound-grade cultivation method, the Cloudy Dream Celestial Technique … Next, the second profound-grade cultivation method will be sold."
As soon as the auctioneer finished speaking, the second profound-grade cultivation method was displayed before everyone in the auction house.
In the end, the profound-grade cultivation method was sold for 90,000 supreme Celestial Stones.
"A profound-grade cultivation method for 90,000 supreme Celestial Stones isn't expensive at all."
In the First Earth Room, Duan Ling Tian, who had yet to make his move, was not in a hurry at all when he saw the two profound-grade cultivation methods being taken away. He sat there calmly with a calm expression on his face. It was as though he could remain calm even if Mount Tai were to collapse in front of him.
There were two reasons he had yet to make a move. Firstly, there were five profound-grade cultivation methods left. Secondly, Duan Lingtian did not like the two profound-grade cultivation methods.
Although the Xuan Grade Cultivation Methods were similar, there were still some small differences.
For example, the first profound-grade cultivation method would subtly change the characteristics of one's Celestial Origin Energy when one cultivated it. It would make one's Celestial Origin Energy gentle, making it more suitable for people who walked the path of gentleness. On the other hand, the second profound-grade cultivation method was the opposite of the first profound-grade cultivation method.
Duan Lingtian did not like either of the two profound-grade cultivation methods.
He preferred the cultivation method that allowed one to temper one's Celestial Origin Energy to be both gentle and firm.
After the two profound-grade cultivation methods were sold, the fifth profound-grade cultivation method finally satisfied Duan Ling Tian's desire. Due to this reason, he also began to bid for it. Moreover, he was the first one to bid.
"10,000 supreme Celestial Stones!"
After Duan Ling Tian placed his bid, he waited for the others to raise their bids before he followed suit and bid as well.
After all, apart from the first two profound-grade cultivation methods that were sold for 90,000 supreme Celestial Stones each, the remaining two profound-grade cultivation methods were sold for 80,000 supreme Celestial Stones each. For this reason, Duan Lingtian did not think he would be able to obtain the profound-grade cultivation method with just 10,000 supreme Celestial Stones.
Unless, of course, everyone else was mute at this moment.
"15,000 supreme Celestial Stones!"
It did not take long for someone to make a bid. It was someone from the auction house.
The people in the other Earth Rooms shuddered when they heard the bid. "Based on that voice, the person in the First Earth Room seems to be the person who killed another guest of the Fleeting Time Inn before coming to the Nian clan's auction house."
"The fact that he's protected by the Fleeting Time Inn after killing another guest means that he's not a simple person. Otherwise, the Fleeting Time Inn wouldn't have protected him at the risk of ruining their reputation."
"We can't afford to offend this person!"
"We can't afford to offend him!"
…
The people in the Earth Rooms were all from the Fleeting Time Inn with Duan Lingtian. After all, they had witnessed Duan Lingtian killing another guest of the Fleeting Time Inn and coming out unscathed. Therefore, they were certain Duan Lingtian was not someone they could afford to offend.
For this reason, none of them dared to make a bid against Duan Lingtian.
"30,000 supreme Celestial Stones!"
After Duan Lingtian made his bid for the third time, no one made a bid for the third time.
The group of people in the auction hall didn't make a sound because they had limited financial resources and couldn't afford to pay a higher price …
Now, many people raised their heads to look at the Earth boxes, wanting to see if the people in the other Earth boxes were competing with the people in the 1st Earth box. However, even after a long time, it was as if the people in the other Earth boxes were completely silent at this moment.
"What's going on in the other Earth Rooms? Why aren't they bidding? "
"That's a profound-grade cultivation method we're talking about. Even if it's sold on the black market at a low price, I'm sure it can be sold for 60,000 to 70,000 supreme Celestial Stones. The people in the Earth Rooms are more than capable of buying it and reselling it. "
"That's true. Why aren't they bidding? This is a free opportunity to earn Celestial Stones. "
…
The auction house was in an uproar for a while, but the people in the other Earth Rooms still did not make a bid.
"It seems like the person in the First Earth Room isn't simple."
"Isn't that obvious? If the person in the First Earth Room is an ordinary person, why aren't the people in the other Earth Rooms bidding? After all, the people in the other Earth Rooms haven't made a bid since the first time he made a bid. "
…
Soon after, many people in the auction house speculated that the person in the First Earth Room was not simple. At the very least, the people in the other Earth Rooms did not dare to bid against him.
