Chapter 255: Floating Island, Sea Accumulation Cloud (1/2)
In the entire Great Mountain Region, only Shu Mountain's Shenshan Jianyi had the Ancient Dust Sword that reached the level of medium-grade Earth-rank.
Its might was so strong that it instantly suppressed the Soul Formation elder of the Mu family in the Great Mountain Cultivation Assembly.
Originally, when one reached the level above the Nascent Soul realm, the Soul Formation realm, one would start transforming into an immortal! Such cultivators had already begun to shed their mortal bodies. None of them were simple people.
In a battle of the same level, even if there was a difference, it was not so easy to determine the winner.
However, when Shenshan Jianyi faced the Mu family's Soul Formation cultivator, he seemed to be so powerful.
Among them, the power of Shenshan Jianyi was naturally undisputed. However, among them, the medium-grade Earth-rank Ancient Dust Sword also played a decisive role.
It was even enough for high-level cultivators of their level to fight across realms.
On the other hand, Jiang Li's Yin Burial Coffin was originally an artifact forged according to the design plan of an ancient divine artifact.
However, due to the restrictions of materials and spiritual qi in this era, the final product's effect had shrunk to this extent.
Without adding the coffin nails, there was only the awkward high-grade Profound-rank.
Fortunately, after soaking in the underwater graveyard for a hundred or two years, this coffin finally landed in Jiang Li's hands.
Under his investment, he did not care about the cost.
The Yin Burial Coffin was nourished and strengthened. Under the effects of spiritual qi, demon blood, ghosts, and the Nine Nether Wood, it was slowly replenished.
Previously, when Jiang Li broke through to the Foundation Establishment realm, he had successfully crossed the threshold and advanced to an Earth-rank artifact.
Now, he had inserted another coffin nail into it, allowing it to reach a higher grade.
If all seven coffin nails were inserted, who knew what level this coffin would reach in the end.
...
Seven days later, in front of the Myriad Sun Building in Phoenix Sun City.
Standing at the end of the crowded street, Jiang Li looked at the immortal mystic realm above him and could not help but click his tongue in wonder.
Jiang Li originally thought that the auction hall of the Myriad Sun Building was only a venue on the upper level of this building.
Now that he was at the scene, he realized that this was not the case.
That auction was simply held on an island that floated in the sky all year round!
When he saw the entire Long Clear Hall rise into the sky during the sect competition, he was still surprised by the power of cultivators and proud of the strength of the sect.
He did not expect that after arriving in Phoenix Sun City, he would realize that his knowledge in the Great Mountain Region was too lacking.
The Scripture Storage Valley's wealth paled in comparison to such a large city in the Eastern Region.
Just crashing down this island was enough to destroy a sect.
At the entrance of the Myriad Sun Building, more than a hundred beautiful female cultivators with smiles on their faces were serving customers and guiding guests to board the floating auction.
Behind them, dozens of indifferent-looking black-clothed guards with high-grade artifacts and weapons stood quietly in hiding.
Sharp gazes swept through the crowd, preventing any dangerous situations from happening.
From the aura that faintly seeped out of these guards, he could tell there were actually ten people inside who were all serious and genuine Golden Core cultivators.
The rest were at least at the Core Formation realm.
In a place that Jiang Li could not see, there might be even stronger cultivators silently watching everything.
In the Great Mountain Region, Golden Core cultivators were high-level elders who could hold their own.
However, there were ten Golden Cores here.
This was something that the Great Mountain could not imagine.
All aspects of this place were enough to show the huge difference between Phoenix Sun City and the Great Mountain Region.
However, Jiang Li was not discouraged. Only a larger stage could allow him to grow faster. As long as the statuses stacked on him were sufficient, Jiang Li was confident that he would not lose to anyone.
Today, the crowd in front of the Myriad Sun Building was especially crowded.
This was because according to the list of items revealed by the organizers this time, the final items were Earth-rank medicinal pills that could defy the heavens and change fate, ancient Divine Dao Arts, and extremely powerful Earth-rank artifacts!
Many people had never seen these things in their lives. Even if they were unable to purchase them, it was good to take a look.
Furthermore, the Myriad Sun Building was very smart. Every time it held an auction, it would release some incomplete ancient texts and strange items that were difficult to determine the exact value.
There were also some good things that were really among them.
As a result, there were often scenes of lucky cultivators picking up treasures at low prices in this auction.
This greatly struck the hearts of those ordinary cultivators with small capital.
If they took a gamble, what if they got it! From now on, their lives would go in different directions. The peak of their lives was waving at them.
This kind of legendary publicity was the most motivating. Some deliberately released ”leftovers” could bring back a hundred times the profits in the long term.
Jiang Li and the others walked in the crowd. At this moment, the surrounding voices suddenly became much quieter, and the nearby human flow started to disperse to both sides. The center of the road quickly formed a vacuum.
Then, a group of cold-faced cultivators walked over from the empty passage in the middle.
There were a total of ten cultivators in this group. All of them carried a blood-colored saber on their backs.
Jiang Li also looked over curiously.
This group of people was indeed different from others. Their faces were dark, and there was a ferociousness between their brows. Their bodies were filled with killing intent that seemed to have condensed into reality.
Jiang Li possessed the Heavenly Dao's [Merit Blessing]. In his eyes, when these people walked together, it was even to the extent that he could see strands of detestable black qi coiled around their bodies.
”This is… the manifestation of negative karma?”
The black qi was actually the appearance of the dense negative karma gathered on the person from killing.
”This level of negative karma can only happen after killing many people.”
”Who are they? Which demonic cultivator sect? They actually appeared in Phoenix Sun City openly.”
”Eh? That person's strength is really quite strong! He's actually so young.”
”Jiang Li, look at that young man. How's his strength compared to yours?”
Grandmaster Zhu, who was beside Jiang Li, also frowned as he looked at that group of people. These ten demonic cultivators were instinctively detestable.
He gestured for Jiang Li to look at a young cultivator among the ten.
It was a young man walking in front of them. His black hair was mixed with red threads.
As if he noticed Jiang Li's gaze, that person looked over as well.
