Of course, before leaving the Heavenly Bandits, Xiao Lingyu had distributed the devil crystals he'd obtained to the Mystical Demon experts so that they could distribute them among their brothers.
Although Xiao Lingyu's original intention in creating the Heavenly Bandits was for them to gather devil crystals for him, he was already quite rich now. Naturally, he couldn't take all the benefits that his brothers had obtained through their hard work alone.
After recuperating from his injuries and storing more than ten blood crystals in his body, Xiao Lingyu finally came out of seclusion after five and a half years.
After thinking for a while, Xiao Lingyu left the continent and continued to teleport east of the Demon Realm.
After continuously teleporting for half a month, Xiao Lingyu still hadn't caught up to the Heavenly Bandits. Instead, he arrived at a continent called the Titan Continent.
The Titan Continent was one of the larger continents in the northwest of the Demon Realm. Its area was more than a hundred times larger than the Northern Sea Continent. It was named after the ancient demon race, the Titan Race, that had once occupied this continent.
Not only was the Titan Continent large, but it was also rich in cultivation resources. As a result, it was prosperous and had a shocking number of experts.
Originally, the entire Titan Continent was under the control of the Titan Race. However, they had never destroyed anything on the continent, nor had they mined the devil stone veins. They had also never robbed the continent of its natural treasures. Moreover, they had protected the cultivation resources and didn't allow other cultivators or races to enter the Titan Continent. As a result, this continent was more suitable for demonic cultivators to cultivate than the other famous continents in the Demon Realm.
It had been many years since the destruction of the Titan Devil Clan. Cultivators from the Devil World continued to come here and set up their own sects. They built their own residences here … Even now, the cultivators on the Titan Continent had forgotten about the Titan Devil Clan and were enjoying everything that the Titan Devil Clan had left behind.
However, such a resource-rich continent quickly attracted the attention of the Demon Realm's bigwigs. They stationed a large number of troops here to mine the devil stone veins and plunder the natural treasures. Although they had destroyed everything that the Titan Race had left behind, they had also made the continent prosperous.
The Giant Titan Continent was different from the other small continents in the Devil Realm. It wasn't controlled by a single clan. Instead, it was controlled by several powerful clans in the Devil Realm.
In the beginning, these forces didn't mind their own business. They fought with each other endlessly, but after many years of fighting, they realized that their strength was almost the same. If they didn't have to fight to the death, this kind of small fight wouldn't solve the problem at all. In the end, they sat down and talked for a while, and then there was the current situation of dividing and controlling the territory.
Since there were several powerful forces on the Titan Continent, ordinary devil cultivators didn't dare to cause trouble on the continent. After all, no one could be sure that the person they offended wasn't a disciple of a powerful force.
Even the people from those powerful forces were very low-key here, not wanting to stir up trouble.
In short, the resource-rich Titan Continent was very peaceful on the surface. This was also an important factor in its prosperity.
Originally, Xiao Lingyu shouldn't have come to a place like the Titan Continent where experts gathered because he was carrying a sacred weapon. However, he still came. After exiting the teleportation array, he walked quickly to the entrance of Titan City. After waiting in line for a while, he entered the city.
Titan City was built by the joint efforts of those powerful forces. All the shops in the city belonged to them, but they mostly collected rent. Only a few shops were operated by them.
Since it was controlled by those powerful forces, they naturally had to ensure the safety of Titan City. Therefore, fighting was absolutely prohibited in Titan City. It was said that even ordinary Devil Emperors wouldn't dare to be too presumptuous here.
One had to know that the powerful forces left many experts on the Titan Continent. There was no lack of Devil Emperors among them. Moreover, the powerful forces themselves didn't lack Devil Emperors.
Even so, Xiao Lingyu didn't dare to be careless when he arrived in Titan City. The expression on his face was very gloomy.
After walking quickly on the streets of Titan City for a full day, Xiao Lingyu finally arrived at the center of the city. Then, he found a large-scale auction house.
This auction house was built in the center of the city and was the only auction house in the vicinity. It was enough to see that this auction house had a very strong background.
Before Xiao Lingyu came to the Titan Continent, he had already inquired about some things. He knew that this auction house called "Chi Clan" didn't belong to any of the powerful forces on the Titan Continent. Instead, it was a large-scale chain auction house that had branches in almost all of the prosperous continents in the Devil Realm.
To be able to do such a big business, one could imagine how powerful the Chi Clan Auction House's background was.
It was also because of this that no one dared to provoke this auction house. Moreover, their reputation was very good. That was why Xiao Lingyu came here.
After entering the hall of the seven-story Chi Clan Auction House, Xiao Lingyu didn't look at anything else. He directly walked to the counter and said to the female cultivator behind the counter, "I heard that there will be a big auction soon. I'm here to auction a treasure."
"May I ask what grade of treasure esteemed guest would like to auction? Is it a material or a finished product?" the female cultivator asked politely.
"A finished magic treasure. The grade is quite high." Xiao Lingyu replied in a deep voice.
"How high is it?" the female cultivator was a bit dissatisfied with this vague answer.
"It's higher than an extreme grade demonic item." Xiao Lingyu replied.
"Esteemed guest, are you joking? If it's higher than an extreme grade demonic item, it's at least a quasi-divine item. "The female cultivator laughed strangely.
"Do I look like I'm joking?" Xiao Lingyu asked unhappily.
The female cultivator stared at Xiao Lingyu for a while. In the end, she took out a jade tablet and placed it on the counter. She said, "Take your treasure to Room Wuxu on the second floor."
Xiao Lingyu took the jade tablet and calmly walked up to the second floor. In only ten breaths of time, he found Room Wuxu.
After inserting the jade tablet into the groove on the door, the door to Room Wuxu automatically opened.
Room Wuxu looked like a study. It wasn't big, but there weren't many decorations.
After entering the room, one could see a wooden table. An old man with white hair and a white beard was sitting behind the wooden table.
"Fellow Daoist, please take a seat."
The old man pointed to a wooden chair in front of the table and said amiably.
"Thank you for your seat."
Xiao Lingyu cupped his fists and replied before sitting down.
"Fellow Daoist, what treasure do you want to auction? Take it out and let this old man take a look. This old man can appraise and value it for you." The old man said with a smile.
Xiao Lingyu nodded and took off the sword box on his back. After placing it on the table, he slowly opened it.
Xiao Lingyu pointed at the sword box and said, "The treasure is this huge cross-shaped sword."
This huge cross-shaped sword should be in its normal state. It was nearly six feet long and half a foot wide. The hilt was two feet long, and it looked like a cross cast from black iron.
However, this huge sword in the hands of the winged giant demon could expand to several hundred feet long. Moreover, at that time, Xiao Lingyu felt that this huge sword was in its normal state.
When the old man saw the huge sword being taken out of the sword box, his expression suddenly changed. He couldn't help but shift his gaze away and look at Xiao Lingyu in surprise.
After looking for a while, the old man said apologetically, "Fellow Daoist, please wait for a moment. This old man's eyes are not good enough to appraise this huge sword. I'll ask a more skilled appraiser to take a look."
Xiao Lingyu silently nodded and didn't say anything.
The old man took out a communication bead and sent out a message.
After waiting for less than a hundred breaths of time, an old man in a brocade robe entered Room Wuxu. After everyone greeted each other, he also picked up the huge sword on the table. The originally calm expression on his face gradually became complicated.
"This is a divine sword!"
After looking at it for a while, the old man in the brocade robe said with certainty.
"It's really a divine sword? What grade is it? "The white-haired and white-bearded old man didn't look too surprised. He just asked curiously.
"It should be a middle-grade divine sword. Moreover, it has a strong demonic nature and seems to have a strong self-consciousness. Although it is difficult to refine, once it is successfully refined, the power of this middle-grade divine sword will definitely be stronger than ordinary middle-grade divine weapons." The old man in the brocade robe narrowed his eyes and said.
"Fellow Daoist, you really want to auction this divine sword?" The white-haired and white-bearded old man asked in disbelief. He could feel that this cultivator who wanted to auction this divine sword was not weak. How could he be willing to sell such a divine sword?
"That's right." Xiao Lingyu answered simply.
"This kind of treasure is almost priceless. If you really want to auction it, let's set the starting price at 5,000,000 Magical Crystals first and let those rich big forces bid for it. I estimate that it will be sold for at least 70,000,000 or 80,000,000 Magical Crystals." The old man in the brocade robe was slightly excited.
"So much?" Xiao Lingyu was shocked. She didn't expect this divine sword to be so valuable.
"If you really want to auction it, we can expand the scale of the auction that is about to start and get some high-end goods from branches on other continents. We can hold the largest auction in Giant Tank City. During the preparation process, we can use all kinds of channels to promote it. When the time comes, this divine sword may be sold for a high price of more than a hundred million Magical Crystals!" The old man in the brocade robe said excitedly.
"As for how to auction it, that's your auction house's business. What I want to know is when I can get the Magical Crystals. I'll leave the item with you. Can you give me a deposit first …"
"Haha, don't worry, fellow Daoist."
Before Xiao Lingyu finished speaking, the old man in the brocade robe interrupted and said, "We naturally won't let you keep the divine sword for free. According to the rules of the Chi Clan Auction House, we will give you 30% of the estimated price first and leave behind a special jade slip to record the transaction process. Since you can come to the Chi Clan Auction House to auction this divine sword, you must have inquired about it. We will never accept the treasure of the host and turn around to accept it."
"Let's do as you say. I'll wait at the Hui Xiang Restaurant next door. After the auction is over, I'll come to collect the rest of the Magical Crystals." Xiao Lingyu nodded and agreed.
"Fellow Daoist, please wait a moment. Your divine sword can be sold for at least 70,000,000 Magical Crystals. Even if it's only 30%, we still need to prepare …"
"How long will it take?" Xiao Lingyu asked.
"Four hours at most." The old man in the brocade robe replied.
