Chapter 414: The Crystals Will



Chapter 414: The Crystal\'s Will

The treasure that started at three thousand naturae coins had now risen to the astronomical price of twenty thousand. Only emperor-level beings and top-tier merchant associations could likely afford such sums.

“Twenty-five thousand! Must it come to this?” The deep voice was now noticeably more irritated.

“Thirty thousand! Since we’re here, there’s no backing down easily. My disciple is already at the peak of the ninth order and needs it,” the cold voice stated calmly.

In the sky, immense pressure became evident, causing the air to twist violently, with faint flickers of lightning. Only beings of emperor level could disregard the Ancestral Court\'s rule against fighting.

“Thirty-one thousand! Don’t forget, the Celestial Fox Demon Emperor said the final bid requires immediate payment. I doubt you can produce that many naturae coins.”

“Thirty-two thousand, the same goes for you.”

Neither side backed down, each continuing to bid.

Tang San was speechless; the prices bid by the two emperors left him feeling powerless. They seemed very wary of each other; otherwise, wouldn’t fighting it out be simpler?

At that moment, a cold and clear voice suddenly said, “Fifty thousand!”

This third voice appeared abruptly, so suddenly that it astonished the two previous emperors. Immediately following, a bright light descended from the sky, landing at the peak of the central mountain.

“Anyone who bids again will be my enemy.” The cold voice, indistinguishable between male and female, was filled with unparalleled arrogance, “This is the will of the Crystal!”

When Tang San heard this voice, a shiver ran down his spine. He had heard this voice before and even met its owner.

The head of the Ancestral Court, omnipotent, the Crystal Demon Emperor!

This Stone of Shelter had even drawn the attention of the Crystal Demon Emperor. The auction fell silent in an instant, and the entire Ancestral Court became quiet.

The entire hall was hushed, and the two emperors who had been competing also fell silent, not uttering another word. The foremost emperor\'s majesty was fully displayed.

The Will of The Crystal!

When the Crystal Demon Emperor appeared, Tang San felt a tightening in his scalp. This Demon Emperor was, without a doubt, the one he feared the most. He instinctively focused inward to observe his crystal imprint, which showed no changes; Crystalline remained in slumber, as if completely unaware of the Crystal Demon Emperor\'s arrival.

“No competition. This Stone of Shelter belongs to me.” With a flash of light, the Stone of Shelter in the Great Beast Fighting Arena levitated into the air and vanished into the void. The overwhelmingly powerful aura also disappeared without a trace.

The omnipotent Crystal Demon Emperor came and went quickly, taking less than a minute. They took the treasured item that had caused a dispute between the two emperors, and no one dared to raise objections.

The Crystal Demon Emperor rarely appeared, even seldom attending council meetings. They were not only powerful but also mysterious.

No emperor dared to compete with them because, as emperors themselves, they were acutely aware of how powerful the top-ranking Crystal Demon Emperor was. Emperors could indeed fall, and since they declared that bidding against them meant enmity, even emperors didn’t dare to challenge them in the slightest.

Taking away the Stone of Shelter was bound to spark speculation.

The Crystal Demon Emperor was one of the oldest existing emperors. Comparatively, the lifespans of Demon Emperors were shorter than those of Nymph Emperors because the latter could more easily absorb the essence of heaven and earth to nourish themselves. It had long been rumored that the life of the Crystal Demon Emperor was nearing its end. When this strongest Demon Emperor fell, the question of who would lead the Ancestral Court, the demon or nymph clans, would inevitably become the next point of contention.

Could it be that the Crystal Demon Emperor personally came today to take the Stone of Shelter as part of preparations for grooming their successor? No one knew who their successor was, but it was evident that they wouldn’t use the Stone of Shelter for themself, sparking much speculation.

It wasn’t until the aura of the Crystal Demon Emperor completely vanished that Tang San breathed a sigh of relief. He was the most tense of all. He genuinely feared that the Crystal Demon Emperor might suddenly come and take him away, and with his current abilities, he could indeed resist.

Fortunately, he left, but he also took the Stone of Shelter. If Tang San could have observed it up close, he might have confirmed whether it was indeed the lotus seed he had once seen in the Hell Garden.

Tang San genuinely desired that miraculous lotus seed, but with his current abilities, he couldn’t take action yet.

The venue remained silent for several minutes before the Blue Fox auctioneer, having regained composure, said, “Congratulations to His Majesty the Crystal for acquiring the Stone of Shelter. Now, we will proceed with the next auction. Please bring up the next treasure.”

Even the auctioneer contemplated the mental shock of the two emperors who had bid earlier. Being so blatantly outmaneuvered, no matter how much resentment they felt inside, they dared not express anything outwardly. What a painful experience it must have been!

Another cart was brought out. As it was pushed onstage, a distinctly different aura emanated from when the Stone of Shelter appeared.

It was an incomparably rich life aura. When it appeared, it was like a blazing fire of life was burning intensely, instantly dispersing the aura of misfortune and slaughter in the Great Beast Fighting Arena. The intense life force burned wildly, and the air temperature noticeably rose.

What a domineering energy aura! Tang San felt a slight shock; this was undoubtedly a treasure. Moreover, he could sense that this level of life force wasn’t from the demon clans; it should be from a plant-based treasure, specifically a sun-attribute plant.

The Blue Fox auctioneer solemnly announced, “The penultimate auction item today comes from the Solstice Empire, from the Son of the Sun, from our great Solstice Empire’s foremost leader, known as the Sun-Nurtured Sunborne Nymph Emperor. For this auction, His Majesty the Sunborne has generously contributed a petal from the Sunborne Flower.”

A petal from the Sunborne Nymph Emperor’s flower!

At these words, Tang San almost instantly stood up.

From what his teacher had told him, the Sunborne Nymph Emperor’s Sunborne Flower bloodline was a mutation, equally irreplicable, but undoubtedly the strongest bloodline among the nymph clans. If there was any powerful ability Tang San wanted to acquire, the Sunborne Nymph Emperor was at the top of the list.

Since this petal was from the Sunborne Nymph Emperor’s Sunborne Flower, it undoubtedly contained its bloodline aura, likely even an emperor-level bloodline aura. If he could obtain it, Tang San might acquire the Sunborne Flower bloodline, thereby gaining the foremost bloodline among the nymph clans!

However, Tang San, who had stood up, soon sat down slowly, his eyes filled with excitement, yet realizing that it was something he could never acquire.

The final price of the Stone of Shelter was fifty thousand naturae coins. So, what about this Sunborne Flower petal? In terms of rarity, it was definitely above the Stone of Shelter. It was a priceless treasure in the hands of someone who truly needed it.
