Chapter 1015: Everything Is Ready, Auction Begins (3)

"I want nothing. I only need you to stay in seclusion for a short period of time." Su Yu said, "You're a person loved by fate. Someone supported by the workings of luck. Someone like you can't be killed so easily. I can clearly feel that. Killing you might provoke the entirety of the five elemental race. I can feel that as well. The five elemental race will come for you, but they won't be able to enter the building. Thus, you can only rely on yourself. You can easily open the door and leave when the seal fades away. From what I can see, even death qi can't easily penetrate this seal, right?"

Topsoil Spirit was doubtful. Was this all? He only needed to stay hidden for a bit? Just what was Su Yu thinking?

Su Yu said, "I'll move you to an inner ring building. I will place a seal around you to prevent your voice from leaking out while we're traveling there. Don't even dream of shouting for help. It's pointless. If you want to live, be obedient this one time. What do you think?"

Topsoil Spirit said, "Su Yu, there has never been a grudge between us. You have been the one to keep coming after me. If you don't intend to die alongside me, I naturally wish to survive as well."

"That's good to hear. As I said, killing you has never been my objective. I only need you to stay in seclusion for a month."

Su Yu smiled. Inwardly, he was still somewhat wary. There was still a risk to this plan. What if this fellow was somehow able to remove the seal earlier? From what he could see, Topsoil Spirit had no way of removing the seal after activating it. But who knew if this was merely an act?

In truth, the best option was to have the little furball guard this fellow. But the little furball was carrying Tianduo's sea of willpower in him. That might make it easier for the devils to notice that something wasn't right.

Ultimately, Su Yu decided to add a few layers of seals around the slab of concrete instead. At the very least, his seals would ensure that Topsoil Spirit would be stuck here for a few days.

That would be enough time for him to complete his scam. At that thought, Su Yu formed a Five Element Purgatory around Topsoil Spirit. Then, he added a layer of shadow barrier. He continued using the numerous tricks he knew on the slab.

When he was done with this, he would move this fellow deeper into the city. That way, even if those from the five elemental race were here, they wouldn't be able to reach him. If it had been so hard for him to actually locate this fellow, the five elemental race wouldn't have been able to locate this fellow so easily either. That would waste even more of their time.

Su Yu was certain Topsoil Spirit was a child of destiny. Even in such a situation, this fellow had survived. Someone like that was extremely difficult to kill. This would probably be the same for people like Mo Duona as well. Each of these young geniuses was someone with numerous life-saving trump cards.

But Su Yu wasn't too worried. Yes, these people were difficult to kill. But that also depended on the person attempting the kill. No Cloudbreach or Mountainsea would be too difficult to kill for an Invincible.

In the end, it boiled down to strength. If he was strong enough, he could simply remove the seal and slap that fellow to death. Why would he need to go through all these troubles?

Before long, the slab had been transformed into a big, black ball. Carrying the big ball, Su Yu left the building and rushed deeper into the city. Since it was night, the streets were empty. Nobody paid him any attention even though he wasn't being exactly silent when moving.

Soon, he reached the first ring.

He started pushing the doors of the unoccupied buildings one by one. When one was this deep into the city, not every unoccupied building could be entered easily. As for the buildings that one could enter, these were mostly the buildings others had stayed in before. Thus, there were no opportunities to be found inside these buildings.

"It has been two days. The matter has probably simmered enough."

Since the Heavenly Hunt Pavilion and Allheaven Treasure House branches could be found in this city, perhaps this would be a good place for him to carry out the auction. In fact, this was a good place since nobody could kill in here. Previously, he had not considered carrying out his auction in an ancient city. But after thinking about it, he couldn't help but admit that this place was his best option.

***

Morning arrived.

Very few people cared about what had happened the night before. Anything could happen in an ancient city during the night. Thus, nothing could surprise anyone. But something happened during the day that shocked the entire ancient city.

Tianduo was seen openly walking through the city gate. And some of the people taking shelter in the city saw him. Everyone on Ninestar Island was looking for him. But this person had actually appeared in the ancient city. Was he here to seek refuge as well?

The moment Su Yu revealed himself, there was no need for him to contact anyone. Those from the Allheaven Treasure House, Heavenly Hunt Pavilion, and Thousand Region Alliance arrived one after another.

He wasted no time and coldly said, "Let everyone know that I'm going to auction the Invincible corpse off. The cultivation method, ancient character, and ancient heaven weapon will be auctioned off as well. I don't accept anything apart from valuable resources and precious materials. The auction will start in this city the day after tomorrow. If anyone believes they can kill me even though I'm in an ancient city, they are free to give it a try."

A masked individual in white asked, "Is that really an ancient Invincible corpse?"

Su Yu replied, "That's something for all of you to determine. But I need to make something clear. The corpse isn't even the point. For me, the ancient cultivation method is a much bigger discovery. I found a massive secret in it. The cultivation method of this ancient Invincible does not require acupoints. It is something that can be cultivated across races without modification..."

"Ancient breathing technique?"

Someone exclaimed in alarm.

Breathing technique! When the others heard that, their expressions changed as well. Immediately, some of them rushed out of the city to notify their respective superiors.

The long-disappeared ancient breathing technique had resurfaced.

Even Su Yu was surprised. What was this reaction? Were breathing techniques not a secret, after all? Well, that was probably better for him.

He inhaled deeply. The coming auction would determine everything.
