Chapter 696: Mystic Color Stone Appears

According to Huang Wenyu, the Astral Origin cultivation world had not encountered any external threats for thousands of years.
The cultivation world had developed in a relatively stable manner, except for the damaged Ascension Platform, which prevented Soul Formation cultivators from ascending properly.
There had not been any significant trouble.
Of course.
What shocked Huang Wenyu the most was the current cultivation level of Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan.
The couple had actually both broken through to Soul Formation.
This let him finally understand why the two of them showed little interest in the Dao Discussion Conference.
It’s as if two PhDs entered a room full of elementary school students. The excitement and vigorous discussions about academic topics and precious items hardly mattered to them.
After a long time.
Huang Wenyu examined the patterns drawn by Jiang Chengxuan, which represented the Mystic Color Stone and Celestial Flight Crystal.
He frowned deeply and, after some thought, shook his head, saying,
“I’ve never seen or heard of the Mystic Color Stone and Celestial Flight Crystal in my many years with the West Ocean Commerce Alliance.
However, I will pay close attention to these two items from now on.
If there’s any news, I’ll inform you immediately.”
“Thankyou in advance.”
Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan had expected to hear this response from Huang Wenyu.
Having Huang Wenyu as a source of information was still helpful in their search for the two items.
“By the way…”
At that moment, Huang Wenyu seemed to have thought of something. He said to Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan,
“There’s a large auction happening soon in Moonlight City. You must have heard about it, right?”
“Yes. Is there a problem?”
Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan nodded.
Huang Wenyu continued, “From what I’ve gathered, the scale of this auction is expected to be larger than usual.
The forces in charge of hosting this auction have also increased from the original two, the Changkong Holy Land and the Wuhen Holy Land.
The other two are from the Xu Holy Land in the state of Guming and the Blue Ocean Holy Land in the state of Yuhe.
Under such circumstances, we can go over and take a look.
After all, the Mystic Color Stone and the Celestial Flight Crystal are both special materials. We can’t easily find them anywhere else.
What do you all think?”
Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan nodded.
“Although I don’t think there will be anything truly valuable in an auction,
But from what you said, it’s more or less an opportunity. There’s no harm in going over to take a look.”
A few months later.
Jiang Chengxuan, Shen Ruyan, and Huang Wenyu arrived in Moonlight City.
It was the only city in the state of Tlancang co-managed by Changkong Holy Land and Wuheng Holy Land, making it one of the largest immortal cities in the state.
The city, bathed in ethereal moonlight and wrapped in spiritual Qi, was a sight to behold, even for experienced cultivators like Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan.
Walking through the city, they couldn’t help but admire its grand scale and bustling activity.
This Moonshine City could indeed be considered a super-large-scale immortal city.
The scale, the number of people, and the facilities were rare even in their Nine Essences cultivation world.
When their group walked into the auction venue held by Moonshine City this time, they noticed that the number of cultivators that came was simply to a terrifying extent.
At a glance, there were no less than a hundred Nascent Soul cultivators.
As for those at the Golden Core, Violet Palace, and Foundation Establishment, there were even more of them.
Moreover, as time passed, the number of people entering the auction venue continued to increase.
Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan could even sense that there were several auras that surpassed the Nascent Soul in a few corners of the auction venue.
While others might not detect them, as late-stage Soul Formation Heavenly Lords, they were acutely aware of these presences upon entering.
After the three of them sat down in their respective seats, in a private room far away from them.
A middle-aged man sitting at the head of the table frowned.
He turned to look at an old man in white beside him and said,
“Senior Brother Yang, did you sense anything just now?”
When the white-robed old man he called Senior Brother Yang heard this, he could not help but reveal a faint smile and shake his head.
“I haven’t sensed anything.
But even if something was sensed, it’s probably just the arrival of those other few individuals. We don’t need to be overly concerned at this point.”
“That’s true.”
The middle-aged man nodded in agreement.
Similar scenes appeared in the other private rooms of the auction.
Time passed bit by bit.
A few days later, an extremely penetrating bell rang.
The entire auction venue immediately closed.
Simultaneously, a graceful and stunningly beautiful Nascent Soul female cultivator descended slowly from the sky.
She was the host of the first session of this auction, a mid-stage Nascent Soul cultivator named Fairy Tian Qing, hailing from the Changkong Holy Land.
Yes.
This auction, due to the participation of the Xu Holy Land and the Blue Sea Holy Land, was divided into four separate sessions.
