Chapter 426: Chapter 425 Ice Sealed Throne

Tang San paused, already standing, he sat back down again. This visit to the Ancestral Court had yielded suitable treasures for the rest of his companions, except for his Senior Brother Wu Bingji. And now, this final auction item, an ice attribute no less, could it possibly suit Senior Brother?The cart was pushed to the center of the venue. The cart itself, with a diameter of over ten meters, and covered with a red cloth, was clearly bulging high, suggesting the object beneath was also large in size.

"Our final item for auction today comes from a deceased sovereign. Once known as the Heavenly Ice Demon Emperor. When the Heavenly Ice Demon Emperor underwent Nirvana at the end of his life, he left behind some strange objects. This here is one of them, the Ice Sealed Throne of the Heavenly Ice Demon Emperor. The Ice Maiden Clan, having been weakened after the fall of the Heavenly Ice Demon Emperor, has become increasingly rare. It is for the continuation of their race that they have brought out this divine object, hoping the resources obtained from it will revive the Ice Maiden Clan."

As the auctioneer spoke, he lifted the red cloth.

Instantly, an intense coldness hit all the bidders, sending a bone-chilling cold to their faces. It was so bone-piercingly cold that the temperature in the Grand Animal Fighting Arena dropped below zero in an instant.

The Ice Sealed Throne was not just a huge chair, but included a circular base beneath. In the center of the base was a massive chair sparkling with icy blue light, and behind the chair, a wall made of one hundred and eight slender ice spears. This chilling cold caused everyone present to shiver reflexively.

Undoubtedly, this Ice Sealed Throne must have come from the imperial palace of the former Heavenly Ice Demon Emperor, a true jewel of the Ice Maiden Clan. The Ice Maiden Clan is a branch of the Spirit Monster race. It is said that when the first Ice Maiden appeared, she emerged from the ten-thousand-year deep ice, formed by the coalescence of Ice Spirits.

Wu Bingji's Ice Spirit Change originated from this clan. The Ice Maiden Clan is not without males, but it is a matrilineal society, hence the name Ice Maiden Clan. The biggest issue for this clan is the difficulty in birthing offspring, which requires long periods of time. This further complicates the already challenging continuity of their race. After the Heavenly Ice Demon Emperor passed away, the Ice Maiden Clan faced a conflict with a powerful fire attribute race from the outer sea and lost many clansmen, hence never recovering.

To bring out the Ice Sealed Throne for auction shows the dire straits the Ice Maiden Clan currently faces. Just like the Red Fox Tribe that previously auctioned the Fox Tail Relic, this is an action born out of desperation.

The Ice Sealed Throne before everyone was indeed worthy of being the finale for the day. Its value for those with ice attribute lineage was incalculable, truly a divine object.

"The starting bid is ten thousand Elemental Coins. Each bid must increase by a minimum of one thousand Elemental Coins. At the request of the Ice Maiden Clan, we invite the current patriarch of the Ice Maiden Clan to personally take the stage for this auction."

As the Blue Fox auctioneer spoke, he swiftly retreated to the side, his body still trembling slightly. He was too close to the Ice Sealed Throne, so very cold indeed!

A silent, icy blue light glided in and rose above the base of the Ice Sealed Throne. It was a very peculiar looking woman.

Her figure was almost indistinguishable from humans, except for her complexion. Her hair was ice blue, her skin was white as snow and translucent, resembling crystal. She stood over one meter eighty, sleek and slender. Dressed in a pure white flowing dress, her eyes were clear ice blue, and just one glance was enough to feel an innate chill radiating from the depths of her heart.

Her gaze shifted, her deep eyes reluctantly looking at the Ice Sealed Throne beside her, her expression filled with loss and melancholy. Her lips pressed tightly together, she did not speak immediately.

One could imagine the internal struggle the matriarch of the Ice Maiden Clan must have endured to auction off this Ice Sealed Throne. But she had no choice—if they did not take this step, the Ice Maiden Clan would not be far from extinction.

From a distance, Tang San observed, and through his divine consciousness and perception, he could feel that this clan's leader was not even at the level of a Great Demon King, but more likely at the level of a Demon King. It was known that their clan once had a Great Demon Emperor. But Tang San knew that the Ice Spirit Change was only a transformation of third-level bloodline, at most peak of level three, not reaching level two.

How the former Heavenly Ice Demon Emperor came to be, and the secrets of the Ice Maiden Clan, remained unknown. But without a doubt, the current state of the Ice Maiden Clan was, unfortunately, rather grave.

The Ice Sealed Throne, starting at ten thousand Elemental Coins for the bid, was definitely a great item, and it would undoubtedly be of immense help to Senior Brother. But could it really be won in the auction?

A throne once belonging to a Great Demon Emperor, and it was very likely more than just a simple throne. The true value of winning it would certainly be immense.

Tang San's eyes narrowed slightly; at a time like this, he couldn't worry about much else. He probably couldn't simply buy the Ice Sealed Throne, as they had only a little more than ten thousand Elemental Coins left. This amount of money was definitely not enough to win the Ice Sealed Throne.

Taking a deep breath, Tang San's eyes flickered with light as he took out an item from his storage ring. Then he concentrated his spiritual power, sending a message to the patriarch of the Ice Maiden Clan.

"Patriarch, please do not auction the throne. I am willing to fund the nobility's revival, and I have a way to solve the nobility's reproduction problem." With a simple transmission of divine consciousness, and with Tang San's spiritual power, he could certainly clearly enter the ears of the Ice Maiden Clan's patriarch.

Without a doubt, such a transmission would be detected by any sufficiently strong existence. But there was no rule against transmitting messages. However, almost immediately, Tang San felt at least over ten divine consciousnesses sweeping towards him.

He stood up and raised the item he had just taken into his hands high above.

Suddenly, a light emanated from the item in his hand, and those divine consciousnesses scanning him retreated as quickly as if shocked by electricity.

The divine consciousness of the Ice Maiden Clan's patriarch was, of course, among them. When her divine consciousness and eyes focused simultaneously on Tang San and the item in his hand, a glint of light appeared in her originally sad eyes, and she nodded towards Tang San.

"Not for sale," she said, while a flash of ice-blue light in her hand passed, and the Ice Sealed Throne by her side silently merged into her body, disappearing without a trace. At the same time, beautiful ice-blue patterns started appearing on the surface of her skin, and her aura soared to the Demon King Level.

She nodded towards Tang San and heard another transmission from him. The next moment, the Ice Maiden Clan's patriarch had already drifted away.

The Blue Fox Auctioneer watched, dumbstruck, as only God level strong beings understood what had just happened. Since they were not selling it anymore, it couldn't be forced. The voices from the three peaks suddenly became a bit noisy for a while.

Tang San didn't linger; he quickly transmitted a message to Zhang Haoxuan, telling him to settle the account first, take anything that could be taken away, and then he would leave for a while, at least two days, possibly three to five days, and would return to the Ancestral Court to meet up with him.

After these instructions, Tang San quickly stood up and left swiftly.

He definitely wasn't participating in the divine object auction anymore. Today had truly gone beyond his own plans, becoming a bit too conspicuous.

The strange item auction day came to an end. Although many bidders were extremely dissatisfied that the Ice Sealed Throne was not auctioned off in the end, that was, after all, a clan leader, and it was allowed by the grand auction. Before the hammer falls, bidders who sent in items for auction have the right to withdraw them. However, they are required to pay a certain penalty fee, which is about one-tenth of the starting bid. That is to say, the Ice Maiden Clan needed to pay one thousand Elemental Coins.

What was the item that Tang San had just taken out?
