Even those super forces were paying attention to Ye Xuan. The people from Yaochi Holy Land, Misty Illusory Manor, and Dao Seeking Sect, who were initially calm, could no longer sit still.
“D*mn it. He can’t be here for that thing, right?”
“Go and find out who this person is.”
In the private room of the Dao Seeking Sect.
“Great elder, this person might be our greatest opponent. Should we go and investigate?”
The old man shook his head. “There’s a restriction here. The auction house needed to protect the guest’s confidentiality and privacy, so divine sense can’t enter the private room.”
The other disciples could not help but look disappointed, “There’s nothing you can do? Even with your strength.”
The old man wanted to say something but stopped. With his current strength, he naturally had a way to deal with this kind of restriction. However, it would alert the person behind the auction house if he destroyed the restriction.
He shook his head and said, “Don’t worry. Even if this person is rich, he probably won’t have much left after spending so many spirit stones. He won’t pose too much danger to us. We must be careful of those who haven’t made a move yet.”
As expected of a veteran, the old man hit the nail on the head. However, he never thought there would be a time when he would be wrong.
The people from the other sects were not fools. After they understood the logic behind this, they calmed down again.
The hall was filled with people.
“Who is this person? How come he is not run out of spirit stones yet? I think he has spent nearly a million supreme-grade spirit stones.”
“Even the seven great sects shouldn’t be this rich.”
“I suspect his family owns a spirit stone mine, or he is the richest man in the world who came here to bid.”
“This is so infuriating. I wouldn’t have come to this auction if I had known that there was such an insane tycoon. I wasted so many spirit stones for nothing.”
“Exactly. It feels like we’re all here to watch a show.”
The crowd was in a heated discussion. Their curiosity about Ye Xuan’s identity even exceeded the auction items for a time. Most people guessed that he came from the seven great sects.
“Everyone, please quiet down!”
The auctioneer shouted a few times before the crowd finally quieted down.
“This is the last item of our auction.”
Upon hearing this, everyone looked to the center of the stage. The most exciting moment had finally arrived. What would Jingdu Auction House auction as the final item?
“Our auction house was in a dilemma to auction off this item, but in the end, we still decided to auction it off.” The auctioneer’s tone faltered. His mysterious attitude made everyone even more curious.
“Hurry up and take it out. What good thing is it? Let us all have a look.”
One had to know that Jingdu Auction House had also handled many treasures. They had been in this business for a long time, but they never said something like this. Hence, this last item was definitely extraordinary.
The auctioneer smiled and didn’t keep the crowd in suspense. “Now, look at our last item.”
A scroll was carefully taken out from the tray. Judging from the appearance of the scroll, it should be pretty old. There were many damaged parts on the corners, revealing the white base. There were even traces of worms eating into the edges.
The crowd could not help but reveal a puzzled look, “Just by looking at the appearance, it’s very ordinary. There’s nothing special about it at all. Could it be that the auction house is deliberately mystifying things? ”
“It’s just a lousy painting. What’s so amazing about it?”
“Don’t tell me you’re trying to fool us with this.” Someone directly said.
The crowd below the stage was in-heated discussion, but the auctioneer’s expression was indifferent. “Everyone-please calm down. Let’s look at it.”
The moment he finished speaking, the scroll slowly unfurled. In an instant, bright starlight spread out like a river of stars. Everyone was attracted by this magnificent scene and subconsciously held their breath.
Speckles of fluorescent light floated from the top of the scroll. It floated in a very regular pattern in the surroundings. If the astrology people were here, they would find that the light on the scroll corresponded to the stars in the sky one by one. It contained the eight trigrams of heaven and earth, the principles of the universe, and astrology.
The fluorescent lights floated and changed like the stars in the sky. Everyone could vaguely hear a voice coming from a distant place, like the murmuring of the great Dao. For a moment, they revealed intoxicated expressions.
Everyone subconsciously wanted to pursue it. It was like they were not in an auction house but above the nine heavens. They were in a jade palace, an ethereal immortal palace. They saw a golden dragon flying in the sky and a phoenix resting on a parasol tree. Everything was like a dream.
Looking around, some people were sitting cross-legged, some were clapping their hands in deep thought, and some were laughing at the sky. As the saying went, all living beings had different forms, but they were all gathered here to listen to the great Dao.
In the end, the auctioneer’s voice brought everyone back to their senses.
Only then did the crowd realize their strange actions and couldn’t help but feel embarrassed. The lower the cultivation level of a person, the easier it was to be affected. All kinds of strange scenes showed that this item was extraordinary.
How could one figure out the myriad changes of the constellation, but it was vividly displayed on this small scroll?
The auctioneer kept the scroll. “This item is called Hetu and Luoshu Diagram. I believe everyone is familiar with its name. Unfortunately, this is only an incomplete part. The other half is missing.”
It was only then that everyone noticed that the scroll was damaged at the edge. There were large cracks on it as if someone had torn it in half from the middle.
Hetu and Luoshu Diagram was a mysterious pattern passed down from ancient times. No one knew who its creator was. Later generations found that it originated from the stars in the sky and contained the great Dao.
Some even said that it contained the secret of immortal ascension! The stories became more and more mysterious. Countless people went crazy because of it and wanted to solve the mystery of the Hetu and Luoshu Diagram.
