Nodding slightly, Zou Ziqiong glanced at the audience, raised her delicate hands and pressed softly, and the cheers in the stadium quickly fell silent.
“Now I announce that the first showdown for this year’s God and Demon Championship, between Qingmu Palace and Jinling Mountain, will be won by Qingmu Palace.
"At the same time, it is confirmed that we will enter the second round of the D and other teams.
“Their next opponent will be the winner between Tianlinghai and Xuanhuo Sect.
"And this duel will be held the day after tomorrow..."
After completing the routine process, Zou Michelle announced that today's duel viewing was over.
The audience began to pour into the channel from their respective areas and leave like a torrent.
"Li Yuan, our Yunping City City Lord's Mansion will hold an auction tomorrow. I hope you can participate."
Zou Ziqiong handed over a white cloud pattern token.
"This is an identity token."
"auctions?"
Li Yuan was stunned, unable to refuse, so he took the token directly.
"Yes." Zou Ziqiong nodded, "The auction is a regular event for every session of the gods and demons.
"It will be hosted by the organizer, and powerful souls from all major forces will be invited to participate."
Li Yuan smiled awkwardly: "Are you just a strong person in the Yuanshen realm? My cultivation level seems not enough."
"Your strength is comparable to the Yuanshen realm." Zou Ziqiong smiled, "I'm afraid I'm no match for you.
"Starting at Xu o'clock tomorrow evening, I will greet you at the City Lord's Mansion.
"You are the first person to appear in the Nirvana Realm at the Gods and Demons Quest Auction."
After saying that, Zou Ziqiong flew away, and someone came to take the master of Qingmu Temple away from the stage.
………
Aoki Hall VIP seats.
Mo Yangcan stood up, with a smile on his old face, and said to the disciples and elders of Qingmu Hall: "Let's go too.
"Hey...it's a pity that I don't have the courage of Miss Yunqing."
Hearing this, Li Yunqing smiled.
"It's a big loss." Yuan Yao gloated that they made a big bet.
Xuan Gushuang smiled lightly, and then said in a deep voice: "On the stage just now, I saw that Zou Ziqiong seemed to invite Li Yuan to participate in the auction tomorrow night."
"Oh, really?" Sheng Man said with a smile, "It is a rare thing to invite him to an auction that only the Yuanshen realm can participate in."
Mo Yangcan stroked his beard, smiled, and said: "If it is true, let him go alone.
"Whoever of you is going to attend tomorrow night, please bring him with you.
"Let's go join them now."
………
The golden sunset cast a layer of gold on Yunping City, as if it was specially celebrating Li Yuan's victory.
Although the duel did not last long, it was already dusk when the audience walked out of the viewing area.
On an earth spirit beast car.
Lei Yangyun laughed and said: "Li Yuan, you are awesome.
“When I participated in the Tournament of Gods and Demons, I fought hard for more than 20 hours in the first game before I won with great difficulty.
"Thunderstorm Dragon and Ice Flame Fairy Bird each came three times."
Li Yuan smiled and said: "I'm afraid you weren't participating in the duel between Ding and other teams back then. Your opponents couldn't be as weak as Jin Lingshan."
Lei Yangyun said: "Hey! Although it is not a team like Ding, but with the help of the elixir you provided, every team this time is stronger than us back then.
"If I meet you then, I might as well be Jin Lingshan."
Not wanting to get entangled in this matter, Li Yuan turned his gaze to the outside of the beast cart and asked doubtfully: "Little aunt, why haven't they come out yet?"
Lei Yangyun speculated: "Maybe it was because we came out late and there were too many people."
"Xiao Yuan, you are really great."
The childish voice of ecstasy and excitement floated into the car at this moment.
Then, a green figure rushed in.
"As for that? It's just a duel." Li Yuanhan said with a smile, "Don't worry, you still won't be able to play in the next one."
The little girl sat down next to Li Yuan, rolled her eyes at him, and said, "Who told you about a duel?"
"That is?"
"Didn't you say you could win the duel within five hours at most? Qing'er made a big bet." Yuan Yao said excitedly, "Hey, I made a lot of money this time.
"Those old guys with no eyesight in Qingmu Temple don't dare to do it. They probably regret it very much."
"Yuan Yao, don't talk nonsense."
Li Yunqing walked into the carriage with a faint smile on his pretty face.
"Are they all out?" Li Yuan looked at Li Yunqing and asked with a smile.
"Yes. Yuan Yao runs fast, so we walk in front." Li Yunqing nodded.
Hearing this, Lei Yangyun smiled and said: "We have to ask them to hurry up.
"Otherwise, you will probably be surrounded soon."
"Okay, wait for everyone to gather and return to Qingmu Garden immediately." Li Yuan immediately asked someone to rush him.
Lei Yangyun has experienced many battles between gods and demons, and he knows that the winner of the duel will become the focus of everyone's attention.
Even if it's a team like Ding and others competing against each other, it's the same.
………
Yunping City, Qingmu Garden.
In a certain room, five people, Mo Yangcan, Xing Mingcan, Sheng Man, Xuan Gushuang and Li Yuan, were sitting in it.
"Li Yuan, have you received an invitation from Zou Ziqiong to participate in the auction tomorrow night?" Xuan Gushuang asked.
Nodding, taking a sip of tea, Li Yuan asked: "What's the point of this auction? Why did you invite me?"
Xuan Gushuang thought for a while and said: "Actually, it's nothing.
“The auction is just a gimmick.
“Actually, it’s just a small gathering of the Yuanshen Realm on the mainland.
“Normally we don’t get this much multi-spiritual realm.
“The last elixir fair you held was an exception.
"But only six sects came to the Yuanshen realm."
Li Yuan then asked: "So, there are powerful Yuanshen realms from other forces in this party?"
"Of course." Mo Yangcan nodded, stroked his beard, and continued, "We have discussed that Peak Master Sheng and Peak Master Xuan will attend the auction tomorrow night.
"You go with them and take care of each other."
Li Yuan had no objection to this decision.
Although his current strength has reached the top level on the mainland, after all, it is not the true Yuanshen realm.
After learning more about the auction held by Zou Ziqiong, they chatted for a while.
No one talked much about the subsequent showdown.
It is too early to discuss.
The next opponent will be determined in the duel the day after tomorrow.
Immediately afterwards, there will be a duel between the C-level teams, and it will be at least five or six days before it is their turn to appear again.
Back in the room, Li Yunqing was still practicing, and Li Yuan did not disturb him.
As for Yuan Yao, he had already fallen asleep and occupied the bed that should belong to him.
Li Yuan did not practice, so he took out the scroll of Yuan patterns obtained from Qingmu Palace and began to carve Yuan patterns.
Now that he had free time, he took care of the Yuanwen scroll and pondered this idea.
If you don’t understand anything, just ask the powerful Spirit directly.
Facing Yuans under the Yuanshen realm, using Xuanpin scrolls and Yuan arrays with ten Yuan patterns inscribed on them can handle them.
Now, with his own strength, he needs to consider the powerful ones in the Yuan Shen realm.
There is a huge gap between the Nirvana realm and the Yuanshen realm.
Scrolls with ten lines do not pose a threat to the Yuanshen realm, and scrolls with more than ten lines must be used.
Even in the early stage of the ordinary Yuanshen realm, if you want to kill it, you need to reach at least thirty Daoyuan patterns.
With his current cultivation level, no matter how powerful his soul power is, it will take a lot of time to engrave thirty elemental patterns, and it will be difficult to do so.
Facing a strong person in the middle stage of the Yuanshen Realm, the number of Yuan Patterns required starts with sixty Yuan Patterns.
In addition to engraving the normal Yuan pattern, Ling asked him to spend some time on inscribing the sealing Yuan pattern, this special Yuan pattern.
The purpose of engraving this type of elemental pattern is not to fight against the enemy, but to try to activate the sealed bones on the spiritual pattern's life-eating bones.
This kind of spine is very rare. If it is activated by foreign objects, it is basically hopeless.
………
The next day at dusk.
Because Li Yuan was riding in the Earth Spirit Beast Cart specially prepared for Sheng Man and Xuan Gushuang by the City Lord's Mansion of Yunping City, the City Lord's Mansion canceled the beast car specially arranged for him in advance.
The place where the auction was held was converted from a large hall in the city lord's palace.
The entire building is spectacular, with the auction table occupying a prominent position in the center of the grand hall.
The auction table is surrounded by more than sixty long tables of nearly two feet, arranged neatly, showing luxury.
The long table is filled with all kinds of delicacies, and the aroma is filling the air, making people salivate.
Although there were not many participants in the auction, more than one-third of the Yuanshen Realm on the mainland gathered.
When Li Yuan and others arrived at the main hall, the long cases were surrounded by groups of Yuanshen realm chatting.
They were very polite to each other, but it was all superficial.
Along the way, the perimeter guards were all trained by sect elders.
Some of them should be strong men from Leiyin Valley, whom Li Yuan met when he was in the Thunder Demon Sea.
Taking on the role of guard, they do not feel that their status is lowered.
I have benefited a lot from being able to see so many soul realms and receive a few pointers from others.
In order to enhance the atmosphere, the City Lord's Mansion specially arranged for a band with dozens of people to perform.
The melodious sound of musical instruments echoed throughout the hall.
Li Yuan and the others walked slowly into the auction house and immediately attracted everyone's attention.
Of course, these eyes were mainly given to Li Yuan.
He is already somewhat famous on the mainland, and with yesterday's duel, if these Yuanshen realms don't recognize him anymore, they will be blind.
For a moment, there was nothing but the sound of musical instruments in the hall, and the atmosphere was subtle.
"Haha, Li Yuan, you are finally here.
"I've almost eaten and drank."
A hearty laugh broke the delicate atmosphere in the room, and the speaker cupped his hands towards Li Yuan.
This person is none other than the Supreme Elder of Leiyin Valley, Lei Yangyun.
Li Yuan nodded and was about to respond. Xuan Gushuang beside him was the first to speak, teasing: "Yun Taishang's strength has greatly increased in recent years, and he just ignores us old guys."
Hearing this, Lei Yangyun laughed twice, cupped his hands and said, "Master Xuanfeng, Master Shengfeng.
"You are all old people at the party, you should know that my brother has no other intentions.
"It's almost time, you three should hurry up and take your seats."
"Excuse me, Lord Yun, please lead the way." Li Yuan cupped his hands and said.
He didn't want to stand there and become the center of attention.
While traveling, Li Yuan met many acquaintances.
Huang Huixuan, the eldest sister of the three Huang sisters in Leiyin Valley, and Tong Ming, whom he had met in Qianjue Chan Ridge, have both entered the Yuanshen realm.
These two people should have left seclusion not long ago, so Li Yuan never saw them when he was in the Thunder Demon Sea.
Lei Yangyun only took the two of them out for a walk, and there were no other Yuanshen realms in Leiyin Valley.
Qu Chuyu, the Imperial Emperor Sect who joined forces with Li Yuan in Yunmeng Daze, also came and also successfully advanced to the Yuanshen Realm.
She was with Qu Yiran who had attended the elixir trade fair.
Li Yuan speculated that the two of them should be sisters. He didn't notice it before, but now that they are together, they look quite similar in appearance.
After a few people sat down, Lei Yangyun returned to his seat.
"Long time no see Li Yuan."
As soon as he sat down, a familiar voice sounded in Li Yuan's ears.
"Mr. Hongyu." Li Yuan was slightly surprised and quickly said.
Tian Linghai's Yuanshen Realm queen moved in behind them and took a position next to them.
Only two people came to Tianlinghai, one was the water-scaled ape Yuanyue whom he had seen at the elixir trade fair, and the other was Ling Chiyun from the Chiyu lineage of the Lingyu clan whom Li Yuan had known for a long time.
The reason why Li Yuan was surprised was that Ling Chiyun's cultivation reached the peak of the early stage of Yuanshen.
Ling Chiyun should completely absorb the inherited power.
Whether he can enter the middle stage of Yuanshen in the future depends on Ling Chiyun's fortune.
This kind of inheritance method can increase the strength very quickly, but it also has disadvantages, and future growth will be limited.
During the chat, Li Yuan calmly observed the powerful men who were sitting down one after another, as if they were all in the Yuanshen realm except him.
"Mo Jiangting... I didn't expect him to come too."
Li Yuan frowned slightly, his eyes falling on a long case in the distance.
An old man closed his eyes tightly and sat there.
When people from all directions gathered to watch, due to time constraints, Li Yuan only noticed the Yuan Zhe on Jinling Mountain opposite, and did not inquire about the other sects.
In Li City, when Mo Jiangting appeared before, Li Yuan was wearing armor and his aura was very concealed. There were also several Yuanshen realms from Frozen Cloud Immortal Pavilion who interfered with him. He felt that the other party did not recognize him.
"What, do you know him?" Xuan Gushuang and Sheng Man were surprised.
If Mo Jiangting's aura hadn't appeared during the last battle in Blood Moon Valley, they would have almost forgotten this person, and they didn't expect that Li Yuan would know him.
"We met once, but he probably didn't notice me at that time." Li Yuan said casually, "Are there many Yuanshen realms who came to participate in the competition between gods and demons this time?
"What kind of strength are they?"
Li Yuan was naturally referring to Bihai Pavilion.
"There are five people on the surface, Liang Changsen and Du Shenglou who are at the peak of the mid-stage Yuanshen realm, and Gao Senmiao who is in the middle stage of the Yuanshen realm." Jing Mengxuan."
When Li Yuan heard this, his face condensed slightly and he said, "On the bright side?"
"Yes." Sheng Man nodded, "Bihai Pavilion always likes to do one thing openly and another secretly.
"This time, I don't know how many Yuanshen realms secretly entered the Leiyin Valley area."
In the battle of Blood Moon Valley, Mo Peihua was clearly fighting against Qingmu Palace, but Mo Jiangting was secretly involved.
It was the last time the strong men from the Aoki Temple discovered each other's existence when they fought against each other.
Li Yuan closed his eyes and thought in his mind.
Bihai Pavilion was more powerful than he imagined.
………
It didn't take long, and people from the Yuanshen realm arrived one after another.
More than sixty long tables were all filled, and the band stopped playing.
After a while, a melodious piano sound sounded, which meant that the auction was about to begin.
Zou Ziqiong, who is tall and slender and dressed in cloud-patterned purple clothes, walked slowly to the auction platform in the center of the hall under the gaze of many Yuanshen realms.
The auction stage is not higher than the ground, and is only separated from the participants by a circular pool about a foot wide.
A circle of exquisite rockery and stone scenery stands in the pool, decorating the entire space with a unique flavor.
The clear spring pours down from the top of the rockery, and the sound of Chun Chun is crisp and clear.
The water is clear, and golden fish shuttle across the water, like golden lightning piercing the water and causing ripples.
The red fish jumped like a ray of sunset reflected on the water.
The black fish swims steadily at the bottom of the pond, as if telling a story.
The rockery stone scenery and the clear spring complement each other, forming a vivid animation with the fish swimming in the water like colorful ribbons.
