Auction System: New Book, Please Bookmark

The Beast Mountain Range lay in the eastern region of the Jia Ma Empire.

Dark clouds filled the sky, and torrential rain roared down.

Bronze Sky Thunder flickered amid the clouds like dragons and serpents crawling behind the storm clouds, illuminating the stillness of the night and filling the Beast Mountain Range with dread.

Thunder boomed like drums beside his ears, deafeningly loud.

Blood-red raindrops fell to the ground, splashing into beautiful petals.

Blood mixed with rainwater in the potholes, forming small streams that flowed downhill.

Not far away, a mountain piled from corpses came into view. Endless stench assaulted the nose, making one want to vomit.

Hungry vultures circled overhead, while some fearless ones landed directly on the corpses and feasted greedily.

The scene was utterly tragic.

"Who am I?"

"Where am I?"

"And where is this?"

The speaker was a young man dressed in white robes. He was rather thin, with fair skin and clear features. His bright eyes gleamed whenever he looked around.

Li Xiao stared at the unfamiliar primeval forest around him, his expression resembling the third emoji on a phone as he stood there dumbfounded.

He clearly remembered discussing the meaning of life with a pretty girl just moments ago. How had he arrived here in the blink of an eye?

A suffocating sense of terror rose within him. Li Xiao subconsciously touched his body, making sure he was made of flesh and blood, which gave him some comfort.

As a man from the twenty-first century, Li Xiao already seemed to know the answer... he had transmigrated!

Congratulations, Host. You have discovered that you have successfully transmigrated. The system is automatically binding. Please wait~

Hearing the mechanical voice in his mind, Li Xiao was overjoyed. This had to be the cheat every transmigrator possessed.

Having read hundreds of wish-fulfillment novels, he knew that a cheat was basically a shortcut to heaven—gaining countless benefits without effort and never dying no matter what happened.

For example, falling off a cliff unharmed and finding a secret manual, then becoming a master. In gaming, cheats were cheat codes and game modifiers.

Binding successful. Please receive the specific information regarding this system and this world.

Hearing the system prompt, Li Xiao unconsciously closed his eyes. Memories began to appear continuously in his mind like a movie.

After a brief understanding, Li Xiao had his answer.

This was the world of "Battle Through the Heavens," and he was currently in the most dangerous place of all—the Beast Mountain Range, a gathering place of experts where even a Dou Huang would have to leave behind a finger!

No wonder he felt so oppressed. So this was the Beast Mountain Range.

Ever since Li Xiao had first encountered novels, he had constantly fantasized about transmigrating into the world of Battle Through the Heavens and experiencing what it felt like when Dou Qi Turns Into a Horse.

He had not expected it to happen so quickly.

Then Li Xiao began to worry again and started learning about the system's main function. After studying it, he discovered the exact capabilities of his cheat.

This was a system for auctioning items. As long as rare items were auctioned off, the Gold Coins earned would be converted into system points, which could then be used to purchase cultivation methods and Dou Techniques of varying value in the shop.

Although it sounded insanely powerful, Li Xiao had just sensed that his strength seemed to be only at the Three-Star Dou Zhe level...

Forget holding an Auction—even whether he could leave the Beast Mountain Range alive was a problem.

In the Beast Mountain Range, strength ruled supreme. Most magical beasts enjoyed slaughtering humans to obtain better flesh and blood from them.

In particular, devouring high-level humans allowed them to rapidly increase their levels. That was why magical beasts never ceased their slaughter of humans.

"System, do you have a beginner's gift pack? As a transmigrator, shouldn't I be directly promoted to Dou Emperor?"

"If Dou Emperor is impossible, then give me a Dou Sheng. That way, I can swagger across the Dou Qi Continent."

Sorry, Host. This system does not provide the ability to advance directly. However, there is still a beginner's gift pack.

Congratulations, Host. You have obtained a beginner's gift pack. Would you like to open it?

Yes. No. Li Xiao shrugged. Since it did not have that kind of ability, he might as well see what the beginner's gift pack contained.

The moment he chose to open it, a dazzling golden radiance suddenly erupted. A pillar of golden light instantly pierced through the clouds, appearing especially glaring in the night.

Congratulations, Host. You have obtained an Auction House. You may freely change its name.

Congratulations, Host. You have obtained two randomly selected Auction experts. Cultivation: Nine Star Dou Zong.

Congratulations, Host. You have obtained the nineteenth-ranked Heavenly Flame on the Heavenly Flame Ranking, the Green Lotus Core Flame.

Looking at the panel before him, Li Xiao stroked his chin. What interested him most was neither the Heavenly Flame nor the Auction, but the randomly selected Nine Star Dou Zong experts. They were only one level below Dou Zun!

Li Xiao swiped his right hand and changed the reward page into the character page, revealing the names of the two Dou Zong experts.

Linglong: Nine Star Dou Zong Peak.

Dou Techniques: Extinguish God Finger (Heaven Rank High Grade), Three Thousand Thunder Illusions (Earth Rank High Grade)

Niu Meng: Early Nine Star Dou Zong.

Dou Techniques: Lion's Roar Shatters Heaven and Earth (Heaven Rank Mid-Level), Shaking Mountain Fist (Earth Rank Middle Grade)

Seeing their information, Li Xiao could not help but be amazed. He had not expected the Dou Techniques they cultivated to be of such high grades. Even Dou Zun might not necessarily be able to cultivate Heaven Rank Dou Techniques. Only experts at Half Saint and above had the chance to touch Dou Techniques of such a level.

Across the entire Jia Ma Empire, the two of them could be considered invincible.

But in Central Continent, Dou Zong experts were somewhat too weak. Central Continent was filled with experts, and Dou Zong appeared one after another. Only those above the Dou Zun level were much rarer.

With a slight thought, two figures stepped through the air almost at the same time.

Linglong, who stood at the front, wore a cold expression. Dressed in white, her skin was as fair as snow, her eyes as clear as autumn water, and her Three Thousand Dark Hairs swayed in the wind, making others feel as though they had been frozen.

Niu Meng was naturally as tall and mighty as his name suggested. He stood eight feet tall with a muscular build and a smooth bald head. His bulging muscles looked terrifying enough to punch through the void. The two knelt on one knee before Li Xiao and respectfully said in unison, "Greetings, Pavilion Master."

Li Xiao nodded in satisfaction and said solemnly, "Rise."

"Thank you, Pavilion Master."

The pressure emanating from them was truly shocking. After sensing Linglong and Niu Meng's auras, the high-level magical beasts nearby were so frightened that they did not dare approach. They could only hide behind the trees and secretly watch these unfamiliar humans.

Linglong coldly turned her head. Sensing the killing intent around them, she revealed a trace of disdain. With a slight raise of her right hand, every magical beast within a hundred meters of the Pavilion Master suddenly died, leaving only chunks of flesh scattered across the ground.

Li Xiao was horrified. As expected of Dou Zong experts—their combat power was terrifying beyond measure!
