In the sky above Xuan City, countless pairs of eyes simultaneously landed on the group of black-robed figures who had appeared in the sky. Everyone's eyes contained a fiery hot expression, and the emotions in their hearts became increasingly excited because of this.
Under everyone's gaze, the leader of the group of black-robed men had a palm-sized disk array standing in the void in front of him. From the crooked strange runes on it, a faint golden brilliance was emitted, enveloping the entire disk array.
After the leader of the group took out the array disc, the other black-robed figures behind him also took out an array disc of the same size and placed it in the air in front of them.
"Heh, is it finally about to begin? I've heard of many auctions that these fellows have organized. It's a pity that I've never had the chance to personally participate. Now, I finally get the chance."
Huo Ting's old face was filled with anticipation when he saw the dozen black-robed figures in the air each take out an array disc. Even Bai Ying and the others could not help but reveal a burning passion in their eyes. They stared intently at the group of black-robed figures, anticipating what would happen next.
In the inn, Xiao Yan frowned slightly. Powerful Spiritual Strength gathered outside him, and the movements of the dozen figures clearly appeared in Xiao Yan's mind.
The wide sleeves were lifted to their chests, and ten skinny bamboo-like fingers stretched out from the black robes. The ten fingers linked together, and numerous complicated seals were rapidly formed. The movements of this group of black-robed people were coherent and compact. Even the speed of the seals and the distance between the ten fingers were extremely strict. Just from this point alone, it could be seen that the degree of tacit understanding between this group of black-robed people had reached an extremely shocking level.
But soon after, waves of enormous Spiritual Strength actually surged out from the bodies of this group of people and poured into the array plate in front of them. Immediately, the porcelain-white array plate shone brightly, and those golden symbols also emitted a dazzling light at this moment.
"This group of people … are all formation masters!"
Even with Xiao Yan's mental fortitude, he could not help but feel shocked when he sensed the enormous Spiritual Strength that surged out from the group of black-robed figures. The muscles on the corner of his eyes twitched involuntarily. This group of people were all formation masters. Moreover, from the strength of the Spiritual Strength that he sensed from each of them, they should all be rank three formation masters!
Rank three formation masters. This also meant that the Spiritual Strength of this group of people was not inferior to his. It might even be superior!
On the surface, this group did not appear to have any problems. Who could have imagined that the strength that they contained was actually this strong!
The strength of an elite Dou Di and the Spiritual Strength of a rank three formation master. by relying on these factors, this group of people was an existence that could sweep through the entire Western region!
Even the Four Great Sects would not be able to resist if they were to face to face with this group of black-robed figures.
After a wave of shock passed through Xiao Yan's heart, the formation plates in front of the group of black-robed figures in the sky finally began to move.
Following the pouring in of the enormous Spiritual Strength, the glow on the ten plus formation plates became increasingly bright. In the end, those formation plates appeared like numerous small suns that were suspended in the sky when viewed from a distance.
Soon after, the group of black-robed figures began to move and spread out. They controlled the formation plates with one hand and formed a huge circle in the sky. After which, the hands of this group of people once again moved under the suspicious gazes of everyone in the city.
One could see them controlling the formation plates to be suspended in front of them. They once again formed some seals in unison. Immediately, numerous energy light pillars suddenly shot out from the formation plates that were flashing brightly. They gathered in the empty space even higher up.
Immediately, the invisible empty space churned intensely. Circular spatial ripples surged like ocean waves until the empty space collapsed and turned into an endless darkness. Only then did the space where the energy gathered gradually stabilize. In the end, the bright energy light gradually disappeared. At this moment, what appeared in front of everyone in the city was an enormous spatial tunnel.
This spatial tunnel was an enormous circular shape. Its width was enough to accommodate over ten people side by side. At this moment, there were waves of silver-white spatial strength repeatedly surging out from within the spatial tunnel, maintaining the normal operation of the spatial tunnel.
Other than this, the energy light pillars that were shot out from the formation plates were also pouring energy into the spatial tunnel. It could be said that the existence of the spatial tunnel was completely supported by the formation plates.
"This is … a spatial tunnel huh."
The expression on Xiao Yan's face involuntarily widened when he saw the spatial tunnel. After which, he recovered.
His Spiritual Strength carefully observed the spatial tunnel that was condensed in the empty space. Even with Xiao Yan's temperament, a shocked expression involuntarily surged onto his face.
"Tsk tsk, this is really extravagant. To be able to condense a spatial tunnel in such a short period of time. This is not something that can be done with just Spiritual Strength and Dou Qi!"
Xiao Yan let out an exclamation in his mouth. He controlled his Spiritual Strength and focused his gaze. Indeed, on the formation plate in front of those black-robed people, Xiao Yan could vaguely see a crystal rock with an irregular shape suspended in the air above the formation plate despite being blocked by the bright light pillar. It was not difficult to guess that it was undoubtedly a Spirit Stone.
The energy source of the formation plates and the spatial tunnel all came from the Spirit Stone.
"Humph, those fellows who used to hide their heads and only show their tails, pretending to be mysterious and mystifying. After all this time, the auction venue is actually not within Xuan City. Aren't they intentionally making a fool of us?"
In the sky, Huo Yusing's eyes were indifferent as she stared at the group of black-robed figures in the distant sky. Her expression was slightly gloomy. They were clearly the ones who organized the auction. In the end, they actually had to wait bitterly. This caused Huo Yusing to be extremely displeased.
The instant Huo Yusing's words left her mouth, the expression on Huo Ting's old face changed slightly. He hurriedly grabbed the latter's wrist and shook his head at Huo Yusing with a solemn expression, indicating that the latter should not continue speaking.
Upon seeing this, Huo Yusing was stunned. She gently curled her lips and did not say anything else.
Then, Huo Ting looked at the group of black-robed figures in the sky. When he saw that they were not paying attention to them, he secretly heaved a sigh of relief. It was fine that Huo Yusing did not know how terrifying these fellows were, but Huo Ting clearly knew that none of these people were to be trifled with. Even the four great sects did not dare to underestimate them, let alone their subordinates.
"Yusing, it's better to be more cautious in the future. Even the Sect Leader does not dare to provoke this group of people, let alone us."
Upon hearing Huo Ting mention the Sect Leader, the expression on Huo Yusing's face changed slightly. A look of surprise flashed across the depths of her eyes. She did not expect that in the entire Western Region, there would be another force other than the three great sects that the Heavenly Sword Sect did not dare to provoke. Who exactly were these people?
"There's no need to be surprised. The Western Region is much larger than what you've seen. There are many hidden dragons and crouching tigers. There are also many experts who live in seclusion. Although our Four Great Sects are considered to be standing at the peak of the Western Region on the surface, those forces in the dark are not people that we can easily touch. For example, the Hidden Cloud Pavilion and even …"
As if he could see the shock in Huo Yusing's heart, Huo Ting furrowed his brows and explained for her. However, at the end of his words, the old man suddenly stopped talking. It was as if he had thought of something terrifying. His Adam's apple moved, but he did not say anything else.
"Father, what is this?"
On the other side, Bai Zhan frowned as he looked at the spatial channel in the sky. He could not help but reveal a trace of confusion in his eyes. He had never heard of an auction being held like this. Did they want them to travel to another city to participate in the auction?
"Have you heard of spatial auctions? This is it."
Bai Ying smiled slightly. Compared to the arrogance of the Huo family, Bai Ying and his son were much more humble. Or rather, they were more careful with their words and actions.
Hearing Bai Ying's words, Bai Zhan raised his eyebrows and revealed a look of understanding.
He said, "So it's a spatial auction. I've long heard that in order to prevent people from fighting over the auction items during the auction, they would choose to set up their auction in the endless void. I didn't expect them to do this. No wonder the auctions they hold are not only of high value, but there have never been any accidents. So it's because of this."
When Bai Zhan said these words, Bai Ying nodded once again. The two of them raised their eyes at the same time and looked at the group of black-robed people. Their expressions were even more solemn.
Just as Bai Zhan had said, the Spatial Auction was built in the boundless void. Spatial turbulence existed there, and it was like a natural protective barrier had been added to the auction. It was impossible to force your way in, and it was impossible to force your way out.
If one tried to forcefully enter, one's life or death would be difficult to predict. Under the spatial turbulence, even an elite Dou Di might not be able to survive.
The only way to enter and exit safely was through the spatial channel. However, the spatial channel was controlled by the auction organizer. With these various reasons, those who participated in the auction would naturally have some misgivings in their hearts. Hence, normally speaking, those who participated in the spatial auction would not only not cause trouble during the auction but would also restrict each other. This was to prevent anything from happening during the auction. In the end, the one who would end up being harmed would be themselves.
Xiao Yan frowned slightly within the inn. He used his Spiritual Strength to observe the spatial channel. His heart involuntarily felt some doubt. At this moment, the black-robed person from the group of black-robed people in the sky, who was the first to take out the formation plate, arrived in front of the spatial channel.
"Everyone, for the sake of safety, the venue of our auction is set up in the endless void. At this moment, the spatial channel that connects to our auction is behind me. As long as one passes through this channel, one will be able to reach the spatial auction. We will begin the auction there."
A somewhat hoarse old voice reverberated over the sky of Xuan City. Immediately, everyone in the city turned their heated eyes toward the black-robed person who had spoken. More accurately speaking, they were looking at the spatial channel that was currently standing behind him.
After a moment of hesitation, the black mass of human figures below immediately began to move. Like a churning wave, everyone rose to the sky at this moment and swiftly flew toward the spatial channel.
However, in the very next moment, an overwhelming oppressive might suddenly enveloped the entire region. Before those Half Martial Emperors who had just stepped into the sky could even stabilize themselves, they were once again suppressed by that frightening oppressive might.
"What is the meaning of this!?"
"Isn't this an auction? Why won't we be allowed in!?"
At the same time that they were suppressed by the pressure, the people below immediately became restless. Dissatisfied shouts rang out one after another. In the blink of an eye, the entire Xuan City had descended into chaos.
"Hum!"
However, soon after, just as everyone in the city was clamoring to enter the spatial tunnel, another invisible pressure suddenly descended on everyone's heads. Under the threat of this pressure, no one dared to act rashly again. The clamor was gradually suppressed as well.
"According to the rules of the auction house, there is a requirement to enter the spatial auction. Everyone must pay five hundred thousand spirit coins to enter. Of course, if you are able to take out an item that is worth five hundred thousand spirit coins, we will also allow you to enter. Otherwise, no one will be allowed to enter!"
The somewhat hoarse old voice was once again emitted from under the large black robe. The expressions of everyone in the city below suddenly changed drastically.
Five hundred thousand spirit coins!
After all, it was quite a huge sum for ordinary Quasi Emperors!
In the current Xuan City, five hundred thousand spirit coins was not something that the Half-emperors could not take out. However, once they handed over the five hundred thousand spirit coins, they would also be unable to participate in the auction of the items in the auction.
In other words, just this requirement alone was enough to filter out most of the Half-emperors in Xuan City from participating in the auction. This undoubtedly increased the quality of the auction.
The financial strength of the remaining Half-emperors was definitely not weak. In this way, the value of the items in the auction would also increase by quite a bit.
In the room of the inn, Xiao Yan could not help but reveal a trace of shame. Five hundred thousand spirit coins was truly an exorbitant demand. If it was in the past, Xiao Yan might have hesitated for a long time. However, now, with the amount of spirit stones he had obtained in the Desolate Ancient Ruins, this amount of spirit coins was naturally nothing.
