Linlong's primary goal in coming to the auction was to find information related to the Spiritual Fire. He didn't expect to obtain such a map through such a method.
Drawing so many copies of the map and selling them to everyone present — it seemed that only the Cloudy Palace would have such an idea.
Linlong spoke to the attendant outside and told him to bring a copy of the map to him.
Perhaps he could obtain some clues from it.
However, Linlong didn't have much hope for the map because if even the Cloudy Palace couldn't find its location, one could imagine how difficult it would be to find it.
He Qingxue and Old Dong didn't plan on having such a map, so Linlong only wanted one copy.
He Qingxue didn't seem to be interested in the Spiritual Fire. As for Old Dong, he was completely aware of his own limitations. With so many people obtaining the map, who knew how many Martial Lords there were? There were even experts above the Martial Lord realm. From that, one could imagine how difficult it was to obtain the Spiritual Fire on the map.
Following that, a few more items were auctioned off before the auction came to a perfect end.
When the auctioneer announced the end of the auction, Linlong and the others also walked out of the room.
What made them a bit surprised was when they walked out, they also saw the guest from room 305 walk out.
There seemed to be only one guest in room 305. Moreover, it was a person who looked very young — roughly twenty years old. However, as he wore a mask on his face, their true appearance could not be seen.
While Linlong's group was sizing up the other party, the other party also looked at them for a moment before turning around and walking towards the passage ahead.
"He's only a rank eight Martial Lord, yet he has so much money to bid for this aircraft. Clearly, the power behind him is not small," Linlong thought as he looked at the other person's back.
With his Spirit Sense, he naturally saw through the other person's strength in an instant.
When they walked out of the auction, Linlong and the others were clearly about to bump into Rong Ping and the others. However, when he saw them, Rong Ping hurriedly brought his subordinates to avoid them. He was simply unwilling to meet Linlong and He Qingxue.
Clearly, Rong Ping, who had been slapped in the face several times, no longer had the face to see He Qingxue.
After returning to the tavern, He Qingxue immediately hugged the Hundred Refinements Universe Brush and started studying it. As for Linlong, he found Old Dong to seal energy into the Rune Sealing Sword.
Linlong had helped him a lot previously, so Elder Dong naturally wouldn't reject him.
Seeing Lin Long take out such a rune-sealing sword, Elder Dong naturally sighed with emotion. The young Lin Long gave him a feeling that he couldn't see through him no matter how much he looked at him.
Sealing the energy into the Rune Sealing Sword was not complicated. It only took him half an incense stick of time to complete it.
After thanking Elder Dong, Linlong placed the Rune Seal Sword into his Rune Space Ring. In other words, he now had another life-saving item.
After that, Lin Long began to study the map. After a quick glance, Lin Long could immediately tell that it was an incomplete map. The map did show some of the terrain of the Black Ridge Gorge, but it was extremely messy. It would be extremely difficult to find the real treasure trove under such circumstances.
It was no wonder that the Hall of Yunyan had drawn so many copies of the map and sold them to so many people. Only with so many people searching would they be able to find the real treasure.
It would also depend on who was lucky enough to find it in the end. However, even if one was lucky, they might not be able to obtain the Strange Fire in the end because there were still so many people glaring like tigers watching their prey. If there was even the slightest movement, others could possibly know.
Immediately after, Linlong pondered. To be honest, it was impossible for him to search from place to place. However, he couldn't let go of the Spiritual Fire that might exist, so he hesitated for a moment.
Whatever. I'll look around for a few days. If I really can't find anything, I'll temporarily give up. As such a thought flashed through Linlong's mind, he put the map away.
That night, Linlong slept early. However, he didn't expect something to happen in the middle of the night. Luckily, his Spirit far surpassed normal people's, so when he discovered the abnormality, he immediately woke up from his slumber.
After opening his eyes, he discovered his surroundings were pitch-black. Logically speaking, even if there were no stars or moon, it shouldn't be this dark.
As a mid-stage Martial Lord, his eyesight was not something normal people could compare to.
Feeling something was wrong, he immediately flipped himself up from the bed. Focusing his gaze, he saw that the entire room was filled with extremely dense black gas.
Is this a Demonic Technique?
That thought immediately emerged in Linlong's mind because only a Demonic Technique could cause such a situation to occur.
Demonic Technique was a faction that was different from the orthodox cultivation methods of the Mutian Continent. The cultivation methods and martial skills of that faction were a bit similar to dark-attributed cultivation methods and martial skills, but they were also different.
Although there were very few people in the nearby countries who knew Demonic Techniques, in other words, people from the Demonic Path, appearing in the Black Ridge Gorge wasn't anything abnormal.
Besides, the people from the Smoky Cloud Palace simply wouldn't reject people from the Demonic Path coming to the market. It was even possible that the Smoky Cloud Palace would recruit such people.
Since he didn't know how powerful his opponent was, Linlong immediately activated the Smoky Cloud Palace's Alarm Restriction. However, what made his expression change slightly was that the Alarm Restriction was actually ineffective. Very clearly, the black gas restricted the Restriction's function.
It was also at this moment that a force suddenly attacked him from the darkness. What made him slightly surprised was that this force was actually mixed with what seemed to be an endless amount of black gas in the shape of skulls.
Linlong didn't dare to be careless and immediately activated his defensive martial skill. However, what surprised him was that his defensive martial skill was actually being rapidly consumed under the opponent's continuous attacks.
In the blink of an eye, layers of armor formed by profound energy were almost completely devoured by the black gas.
The opponent's strength caused Linlong's expression to change abruptly.
He hurriedly fiercely slapped out with his palm. After forcing the opponent back, he immediately took a few steps back and directly activated the Spiritual Fire in his body.
At this moment, the opponent closed in again. In an instant, the force that was mixed with countless skulls once again swept towards Linlong.
At this moment, Linlong met it with a Gale Kick. The Spiritual Fire's flames on the Gale Kick immediately lit up the surrounding space.
What slightly surprised him was that wherever the Spiritual Fire's flames passed, the Demonic Qi would disperse.
Although Linlong knew that the Spiritual Fire could restrain the Demonic Qi to a certain extent, it was beyond his expectations to be able to restrain it to such an extent. After all, the opponent seemed to be very strong previously.
At this moment, Linlong also clearly saw who the opponent was. He was wearing a loose black robe and had a white mask on his face. It was obvious that he was the person who bid against him for the porcelain previously.
"Spiritual Fire!" At this moment, the opponent seemed to be very surprised and cried out. At this moment, the opponent's voice was still a little hoarse.
How could Linlong let go of such an opportunity after succeeding in one move? He immediately pressed forward and attacked the opponent with the Spiritual Fire's force again.
The opponent was obviously afraid of Linlong's Spiritual Fire, so he didn't dare to fight Linlong head-on. Instead, he kept retreating and attempted to use the surrounding Demonic Qi to exhaust Linlong's force.
However, the Demonic Qi couldn't stop Linlong's Spiritual Fire at all.
At this moment, Linlong could clearly see that the opponent's strength was much weaker than his. The reason why the opponent was able to use such a powerful demonic technique was definitely because he had a demonic treasure such as a demonic tool.
However, the opponent was obviously unable to bring out the full effect of the demonic tool. In addition, the Spiritual Fire had a certain restraining effect on demonic techniques, so Linlong was able to restrain the opponent so easily.
The demonic tool was a treasure similar to the rune sealing tool in the demonic path.
The demonic tool used by the opponent was obviously not an ordinary item. Otherwise, it would be impossible for it to seal the surrounding space so easily and prevent Linlong's alarm from being sent out.
Next, Linlong completely gained the upper hand. After a few more moves, Linlong's Spiritual Fire's flames directly broke through the opponent's defense.
After that, the opponent had no room to resist and was directly knocked to the ground by Linlong.
This was because the opponent might know the secret on the porcelain. Otherwise, Linlong would have killed the opponent directly.
Just as he was about to use a restriction to completely subdue the opponent, Linlong's expression became extremely strange.
This was because he discovered that the opponent's chest was actually extremely soft. In other words, "he" was actually a woman?
After using the restriction on the opponent, Linlong immediately took off the opponent's mask. Immediately, an extremely beautiful young woman's face appeared in front of Linlong.
Seeing this, Linlong was stunned. This was because the opponent's appearance was extremely outstanding. Even compared to He Qingxue, she wouldn't lose by too much.
