Auctioning Ancient Emperor Jade
Upon entering the space, the four found themselves in an ancient town.
Because there were still a few days before the Space Trade Fair actually started, there weren't many people in Space Town at the moment, and most of them were people who came to set up stalls in the town to secure a good spot.
Mo Tang looked around the scattered stalls on both sides with great interest. Although he found many special and good items, the vendors immediately asked for Grade 8 Pill, which instantly dispelled all of Mo Tang's thoughts.
"Stop looking, what good stuff could there be here..."
Phoenix glanced at the stall in front of him from behind and urged him disdainfully.
This infuriated the gray-robed old man who was running a stall, but due to the rules of this Space Town, he could only suppress his anger.
In the end, they simply kicked Mo Tang out and refused to give him anything in return.
Mo Tang found this scene amusing; he hadn't expected the old man to be such a sentimental person... However, having encountered the arrogant and sharp-tongued Phoenix, he could only accept his bad luck.
However, Mo Tang had only been there out of interest and hadn't actually intended to exchange for anything here. So, urged by Phoenix, the four of them didn't linger on the street and went straight to an old-fashioned pavilion at the end of the town...
This pavilion, known as the "Ancient Treasure Pavilion," is where the final Auction be held, and the true treasures of each Space Trade Fair will appear here.
Of course, not just anyone can go in here.
Looking at the two expressionless Gray-robed Person at the door, judging from their auras, they should be two Dou Zun level experts around six stars...
Wow, with Dou Zun guarding the gate, it truly lives up to its reputation as the most prestigious trade fair on the mainland.
Mo Tang thought to himself.
"Gentlemen, may I ask what brings you here? If you are here to attend the Auction, please wait until the auction begins before you come."
One of the Gray-robed Person looked at Mo Tang and his group of four with a somewhat wary expression.
There was nothing he could do. Even with his Six-Star Dou Zun strength, seeing the four people in front of him felt like looking into a bottomless abyss, as if they were about to suck his soul out...
This feeling is terrifying!
"We have a treasure we'd like to participate in the auction," Mo Tang said calmly.
The Gray-robed Person breathed a slight sigh of relief upon hearing this.
As long as it's not causing trouble...
"Please follow me, all four of you."
The Gray-robed Person dared not delay and quickly led the four people into the pavilion.
Stepping into the ancient pavilion, Mo Tang glanced around. The pavilion was dimly lit and quite ordinary, with nothing particularly remarkable about it, nor did it exude any sense of preciousness.
At this moment, the Gray-robed Person waved to the distance, and then an old man with white hair and a youthful face walked quickly from the side.
The two whispered a few words to each other, and then the Gray-robed Person turned around and went back out to guard the gate.
As for the old man in gray, he walked over with a smile, cupped his hands and said, "Four distinguished guests, please follow me."
After speaking, the old man turned and walked into the dimly lit depths of the pavilion, and Mo Tang and the other three quickly followed.
The group walked along the corridor inside the pavilion for about a few minutes before finally stopping in front of an ordinary wooden door.
The old man also stopped there, cupped his hands in greeting to Mo Tang and the other three, and left quietly without saying anything more.
Mo Tang pushed open the door, only to find that what appeared before him was not the ordinary wooden house he had imagined, but a spacious and tall hall.
The walls surrounding the main hall are covered with containers sealed off by space, clearly indicating that all the treasures from this space Auction stored here.
In the center of the main hall, an elderly man dressed in gleaming gold sat there, looking at the four with a kind smile.
"Hahaha, I didn't expect that the four distinguished guests, the Four Directions Pavilion and the Heavenly Demon Three Phoenixes, would be here this time. I am the Treasure Appraisal Mountain Master, Old Man Baoshan Sect Master Mountain. I greet the four of you."
Treasure Appraisal Mountain is one of the three organizers of this space Auction.
Although Treasure Appraisal Mountain is not known for its martial prowess, it is precisely the most important of the three sects.
Legend has it that no matter what treasure it is on this continent, nothing can escape the scrutiny of Treasure Appraisal Mountain. Anything that passes through their hands will never be found to be flawed!
It was precisely because of this ability and reputation that Treasure Appraisal Mountain became one of the three sects.
Mo Tang looked at this Old Man Baoshan, a peak Nine Revolutions Peak Dou Zun expert who had one foot in the Half-Saint. His strength was indeed not high, but his demeanor was quite good when facing four Dou Sheng.
After inviting the four to sit down, the Old Man Baoshan spoke again, "I wonder what treasures you four have? Why don't you take them out and let this old man see them?"
The three Phoenix all turned their attention to Mo Tang. Clearly, they had come here to cause trouble, and now they could only watch Mo Tang put on a show.
Facing the gazes of the crowd, Mo Tang smiled slightly and took out an ordinary piece of jade.
Phoenix glanced at him with some surprise, thinking that this guy was deliberately trying to provoke the other party by taking out an ordinary object.
But whatever, they're just here to cause trouble anyway, so what does it matter what excuse they use?
Just as Phoenix was rolling up his sleeves, ready to fight, the Old Man Baoshan who had accepted the jade let out a gasp...
"This is... the Tou She Ancient God Jade!"
Upon hearing this, Mo Tang was slightly surprised.
"Oh? I didn't expect that Old Man Baoshan would be able to recognize this item."
With a complex expression on his face, the Old Man Baoshan stroked the Ancient Emperor Jade in his hand, and finally sighed and placed it on the table.
"Hehe, I'm sorry to have made you laugh, Pavilion Master Mo."
With a wry smile, the Old Man Baoshan shook his head and explained, "I've only heard of this thing; I've never seen it before. However, it's said that although this Ancient Emperor Jade is ordinary, its material is special, and even Dou Sheng cannot destroy it. Moreover, people who have reached the Dou Saint level can sense a special fluctuation from it, so this old man is just guessing."
At this point, the Old Man Baoshan sighed again, hesitated for a long time, and then gently pushed the jade stone in front of Mo Tang.
"What does this mean?" Mo Tang asked in a deep voice, his eyes narrowing slightly.
Seeing Mo Tang's expression, the Old Man Baoshan dared not anger him and quickly explained, "Pavilion Master Mo, please don't be impatient, let me explain..."
"As Pavilion Master Mo probably knows, although the Space Trade Fair is a free market, there are rules for the Auction," Old Man Baoshan patiently explained.
"There are countless precious things in the world, but there are certain special items that our Space Auction dares not touch, lest it attract unnecessary trouble... And this Tou She Ancient God Jade is precisely the kind of thing we dare not touch..."
Since the Old Man Baoshan knew about the Tou She Ancient God Jade, he naturally knew who the previous owners of these things were.
Those are the eight ancient races, the most powerful beings on the entire Dou Qi Continent.
Neither of them were people their three sects could afford to offend, so he naturally didn't want to get involved with anything that would obviously provoke them.
