Chapter 2377 A Delayed Response

Chapter 2377 A Delayed Response

~HUU~

Lin Mu took a deep breath as he glanced at the pedestal in front of him.

"Time to get it..." Lin Mu muttered to himself and used his Immortal Sense to select the most expensive item in the entire reward list.

The Heaven Silencing Seal was at the very top of it all and as soon as Lin Mu willed it, the name disappeared from it!

~SHUA~SHUA~SHUA~

This resulted in a cascading effect as each and every name started to shift one rank above!

The removal of the top ranked item had prompted the list to be refreshed in its entirety!

"Whoa..." They hadn't expected there to be such an effect.

~HUALA~

<1,587,513 Credits>

The green band on Lin Mu's wrist lit up as the numbers dropped at a blinding rate, leaving only a million and a half left.

Lin Mu seemingly held his breath as he waited for the portal to open up. Second after second passed, as the air seemingly turned still.

"It's not here yet?" Lady Kang said, furrowing her brows. It had now been a minute and there was still no sign of the Heaven Silencing Seal. With how valuable it was, Lin Mu wasn't the only one who was very eager to see it.

"There's no way this can be a scam, right?" Qiao De asked, seeing that the credits were taken, but no item was provided.

His merchant senses made him unease about situations like this, but Lin Mu was holding steady.

"It is indeed quite strange. All the other items had been given within just a few seconds and yet this is taking so long." Crown Prince Feng Shun stated.

"Perhaps there are some special limitations on it?" Min Ju suggested. "Considering its value, it must be very strong and as such there might be conditions on how to store it or how it should be given." She had seen many valuable but sensitive or dangerous items being auctioned before.

Lin Mu furrowed his brows as he tried to assess the extent of damage that had been inflicted upon the Spatial Fabric. Using his Spatial Perception, Lin Mu realized something shocking.

"That... isn't the Lesser Void," Lin Mu muttered as his eyes started to go wide.

"It's not?" Daoist Chu was shocked. "Then what is it?" he inquired.

"Is it the Great Void?" Crown Prince Feng Shun asked in between.

"No... it's not just the Great Void... it's the Grand Void!" Lin Mu proclaimed, making everyone stumble in their path.

~HONGLONG~

At the same time, a great pressure descended upon the group, as if they had triggered a curse.

"Dammit, this is getting too risky." Qiao De said, seeing the pressure.

Lin Mu knew that one wrong step here could very well get all that was around them erased, including the very same Offering Hall that had been refined to an almost unbreakable level.

Still, he held on, thinking that the Seal was definitely unique and beyond what they all could even imagine.

~RIPPLE~

A few seconds later, Lin Mu finally saw deep ripples inside the Spatial Crack that cut directly into the Grand Void. They grew more and more until finally a black box shot out of the Spatial Rift!

~THUD~

Lin Mu quickly caught the box that would have been catapulted if not for his quick reflexes. Him catching it was not easy and made a decent amount of sound.

"A box? Is the seal inside?" Qiao De asked, glancing over at the box in Lin Mu's hand.

~HUALA~

But before they could start marveling over this, the black box in Lin Mu's hand seemingly trembled.

~SHUA~

A large crest appeared atop it that depicted an emerald green being with scarlet red eyes!
