"Lin Langtian".

After a moment's hesitation, Lin Langtian introduced himself and revealed his name, clearly not intending to hide anything.

"I am Li Feier, the manager of Myriad Merchants Tower," the Blue-dressed Woman said with a smile.

Upon hearing this, Lin Langtian nodded slightly, then seemed to think of something, took out a Universe Bag from his pocket, and said, "Miss Fei'er, I wonder if you could trouble you to exchange the items inside for Xuan Yuan Pill?"

"Oh, to exchange for Xuan Yuan Pill..." Upon hearing this, Li Feier was taken aback, then took the Universe Bag from Lin Langtian's hand, probed it with her Mental Power, examined it briefly, pondered for a moment, and said.

"The items here are all quite valuable, and their total value can reach 20 million Xuan Yuan Pill."

"Twenty million Xuan Yuan Pill, then let's do as Miss Fei'er says." Lin Langtian raised an eyebrow, quite surprised.

The goods in this Universe Bag were all his spoils of war from the Darkness Tribunal. Lin Langtian estimated that they were worth about 15 million Xuan Yuan Pill. He didn't expect Li Feier to ask for 20 million, which was obviously a large sum of money as a favor to him.

Seeing that Lin Langtian agreed, Li Feier handed the Universe Bag in her hand to the middle-aged man behind her. Then, with a wave of her hand, a blue Universe Bag appeared.

"Brother Langtian, here are twenty million Xuan Yuan Pill, and also an invitation to my Myriad Merchants Auction House. I'm sure you'll need them, so please accept them," Li Feier said with a smile.

Lin Langtian nodded slightly, then reached out and took the Universe Bag, saying, "Thank you."

He vaguely sensed that Li Feier seemed to know something, but since she didn't speak, Lin Langtian naturally wouldn't ask her directly.

"No need to be so polite. If Brother Langtian needs any help, please feel free to come to Myriad Merchants Tower to find me." Li Feier covered her mouth and giggled.

Lin Langtian nodded, made a few more sarcastic remarks, and then turned and left with Mu Lingshan and the Liu Brothers.

"Miss... why are you being so polite to a stranger? Besides, the items in this Universe Bag are only worth about 15 million Xuan Yuan Pill. Giving us any more would be a loss for us. Is it really necessary for this person to try so hard to win him over?"

Seeing Lin Langtian leave, the middle-aged man released his Mental Power from his Universe Bag and couldn't help but speak.

"Do you know who he is?" Li Feier asked, her long, narrow eyes narrowing slightly.

"Have no idea."

"A while ago, a small team of the Blood Demon Shark Clan was wiped out. It seems that the mastermind behind this was Lin Langtian ..." Li Feier said softly.

"That's right. Since this person has offended the Blood Demon Shark Clan, we should be even less inclined to befriend him, lest we bring trouble upon ourselves," the middle-aged man said in a deep voice.

"Hehe, you don't understand. Half a month ago... I just happened to come across some intelligence sent back from the Eastern Xuan Region. A month ago, a shocking battle took place in the Eastern Xuan Region."

During that great battle, a new Super Sect was born in the Eastern Xuan Region, named Heavenly Mansion. And this Heavenly Mansion, which had only just emerged, actually attacked the Yuan Sect.

Furthermore, even with the combined efforts of the Three Grand Masters of Yuan Sect, they couldn't defeat Heavenly Mansion. It's said that at the last moment, the Yuan Sect even had Reincarnation Stage expert intervene...

Li Feier pursed her red lips slightly, her beautiful eyes sparkling with intense curiosity. She looked at the dumbfounded middle-aged man beside her and smiled charmingly.

"And that Heavenly Mansion Lord is also named Lin Langtian..."

"Does Miss mean... that Lin Langtian from the Eastern Xuan Region is the same person as this person?"

The middle-aged man's face showed a hint of shock. If these two people were really the same person, wouldn't that mean that behind Lin Langtian, there was a Super Sect comparable to the Yuan Sect?

Even Myriad Merchants Tower wouldn't dare to easily offend a power at that level!

"Although it's uncertain, maintaining some necessary relationships is essential. I believe that if Father were here, he would choose to do the same. Although we lost five million Xuan Yuan Pill, in the long run, it may be insignificant..." Li Feier said with a light laugh.

"Even if these two are not the same person, Lin Langtian still has the potential to win them over. I have a feeling that if you had shown up a moment later, Uncle Mo, Sha Li might have suffered a crushing defeat at the hands of Lin Langtian ..."

"It is far better to befriend such a person than to make him an enemy."

"Miss is becoming more and more meticulous in her work."

The middle-aged man nodded in admiration. If Lin Langtian the Heavenly Mansion Lord, even if their Myriad Merchants Tower's lord were here, he would have to treat him as a distinguished guest.

Li Feier Xiaoxiao and said, "Don't reveal anything about Lin Langtian to outsiders. He came all the way from the Eastern Xuan Region to the Chaotic Demon Sea with three Death Profound Stage subordinates. He may have important business to attend to. If his identity is exposed because of this, we might be blamed."

The middle-aged man nodded. "Understood."

"Well, let's get to work first. The auction starts in three days, and quite a few heavyweight forces are coming this time, so we can't afford any mishaps," Li Feier said.

"Yes."

The middle-aged man respectfully responded and then took his leave. Li Feier turned her head, her beautiful eyes gazing in the direction Lin Langtian had left. Her lips curled slightly, clearly showing her great curiosity about Lin Langtian's identity.

Lin Langtian left the Myriad Merchants Tower, then found Mu Lingshan, who was looking around in a daze, and dragged her away from the Myriad Merchants Tower area.

Lin Langtian didn't rush to find a place to stay. Instead, he took Mu Lingshan and the others to stroll around the Myriad Merchants City for a while, satisfying the girl's desire to join in the fun. Finally, he took her to find an inn in the city to stay.

"LingShan, how's your seal?"

After entering the inn and arranging rooms for several people, Lin Langtian seemed to remember something and suddenly looked at Mu Lingshan and asked.

He could sense that Mu Lingshan's strength should be quite formidable, but currently she was under a seal, which suppressed her power.

This was also one of the reasons Lin Langtian Myriad Merchants Auction House; after all, he couldn't just abandon the little girl who was with him.

"It hasn't dissipated yet; that stinky shark's seal is quite powerful."

Mu Lingshan pulled down her sleeve, revealing a blood shark pattern on her small, fair shoulder. She looked at the pattern with a troubled expression.

How can we break this seal?

"I need a spiritual material called ' Sea King Spirit Grass '... With that, I will be able to break this seal," Mu Lingshan said after thinking for a moment.

"Sea King Spirit Grass ..." Lin Langtian murmured. This was indeed a rather rare spiritual material. He could try to find it when the auction started. In any case, he had to find a way to remove Mu Lingshan's seal.

After making up their minds, Lin Langtian and the others returned to their rooms to rest. After all, they had been traveling for a month, and even though they were all highly skilled, they needed to recuperate.

Three days later, when Lin Langtian, having rested and recuperated, entered the room, he saw Mu Lingshan sleeping on the Life and Death Coffin, her face as delicate as a porcelain doll. At this moment, a trace of drool hung from the corner of her mouth, clearly indicating that she was fast asleep.

"This little girl..."

Lin Langtian chuckled and shook his head, gently stroking Mu Lingshan's head. As his hand touched hers, he raised an eyebrow, noticing that the Devouring Ancestral Symbol and the Space Ancestral Talisman within his body trembled once more...

At the same time, a ray of light suddenly appeared from Mu Lingshan's body. The ray of light seemed to form a miniature whale, which was black and white, like the intersection of yin and yang. An ancient and peculiar fluctuation constantly emanated from it.

"This is... the Life and Death Ancestral Symbol?" Lin Langtian thought to himself upon seeing this.

The black and white colors clearly represent the power of life and the power of Death Qi, indicating that Mu Lingshan is indeed the incarnation of the Life and Death Ancestral Symbol.

However, Mu Lingshan clearly cannot master the power of the Life and Death Ancestral Symbol at this time; otherwise, even a Samsara Stage expert might not be her match.

Shaking his head, Lin Langtian withdrew his hand from Mu Lingshan's head and coughed lightly.

"Hmm... Bro Langtian... you've finished your cultivation?"

As his cough subsided, Mu Lingshan, who had been fast asleep, finally reacted. She immediately opened her clear, crystal-like eyes, her face flushed, and said somewhat embarrassedly, "It seems... I slept for too long..."

Lin Langtian smiled and said, "Let's go out for a stroll."

"Okay, okay!" Upon hearing that she could go out, Mu Lingshan's pigtails swayed excitedly; little girls love excitement the most.

Lin Langtian smiled and patted her pigtails. After calling out Liu Da and the other two, he turned and led Mu Lingshan out of the room...

During the few days Lin Langtian rested, the number of people visiting Myriad Merchants City was obviously increasing at a terrifying rate, and countless powerful figures from the surrounding seas gathered there.

This has made the Myriad Merchants City even more chaotic, with all sorts of shady characters mingling within, which has led to considerable disorder in the Myriad Merchants City's security.

While strolling around the Myriad Merchants City, Lin Langtian and his companions gathered a considerable amount of information. According to him, in addition to the Blood Demon Shark Clan, the Heavenly Shark Sect, another major power in the Corrosive Fiend Sea Domain, had also arrived at the Myriad Merchants City. Moreover, the leader of the Heavenly Shark Sect was none other than Li Lin, who was known as the most outstanding among the younger generation in the Corrosive Fiend Sea Domain.

In addition, Li Lin ranked eighth on the Chaotic Demon Sea Rookie Ranking, and his strength was quite formidable, almost on par with Sha Li.

Besides the Blood Demon Shark Clan and the Heavenly Shark Sect, there are also the Boundless Sect of the Boundless Sea Domain, the Blood Saber Sect of the Southern Xuan Sea, and so on... These forces are all overlords in the Chaotic Demon Sea.

Right now, all these forces have gathered in Myriad Merchants City, making the Myriad Merchants City increasingly turbulent.

"As expected of Myriad Merchants Tower... its influence is terrifying..."

When Lin Langtian learned of this, he couldn't help but sigh. An auction could attract such heavyweight forces, which showed that the quality of this Myriad Merchants Auction House was quite high.

Thinking of this, Lin Langtian couldn't help but feel a surge of anticipation. He wondered if he could obtain any information about the inheritance of the Devouring Ancestral Symbol Master at this auction.

"Only two days left until the auction begins..."

Two days passed in the blink of an eye in the Myriad Merchants City, where the atmosphere was almost explosive.

When the first rays of dawn shone down that morning, the entire city erupted like a volcano, engulfing the whole city in a fiery heat.

Whoosh!

As Lin Langtian and his companions stepped out of the inn, the sky above was filled with the sound of wind breaking, and the figures were heading north of the city like locusts.

"So, that grand formation has also been activated...?"

Lin Langtian raised his head and looked at the massive array that enveloped the entire city. At this moment, the light was much more solid than before, and a vast wave was faintly emanating from it.

Clearly, the Myriad Merchants Tower has activated its City Protection Array today. Under the deterrence of such a formation, even a powerful expert at the Death Profound Stage Perfection would not dare to act recklessly in front of the Myriad Merchants Tower's main gate.

"Let's go too."

Lin Langtian smiled at Mu Lingshan, who was already excitedly looking around, and then the group moved and soared into the air, heading north.

To the north of Myriad Merchants City, there is a Suspended Square, which is about 10,000 feet in size and can accommodate hundreds of thousands of people. This plaza is the venue where Myriad Merchants City has held auctions over the years.

Around the Suspended Square, light screens descended. These light screens originated from the City Protection Array above Myriad Merchants City. To enter the plaza and participate in the auction, one needed to hold an invitation issued by the Myriad Merchants Pavilion.

Lin Langtian stopped in front of the light screen, flipped his hand, and a purplish-black invitation appeared in his hand. He then flicked it towards the light screen, which trembled and tore open a crack. Lin Langtian and the others quickly rushed inside.

Boom!

As soon as he rushed into the light curtain, a deafening clamor came from the surging crowd. This made Lin Langtian frown slightly. He raised his eyes and looked at the dark sea of people that stretched almost to the end of his vision. He shook his head helplessly.

This was the first time Lin Langtian had ever witnessed an auction of such scale...

"Please take your seats..."

Lin Langtian's gaze swept across the vast arena, and then he led Mu Lingshan and the others to a seat at the front.

"Brother Langtian, you really came too."

Just as Lin Langtian's figure soared into the air, a silvery laugh suddenly came from in front of him. He looked up and saw Li Feier standing gracefully, smiling at him.

"Having come to Myriad Merchants City, how could I possibly miss such a grand event?" Lin Langtian had a good impression of Li Feier, so he stopped and smiled at her.

Li Feier covered her mouth and smiled. She was already extremely beautiful, and given her high status in Myriad Merchants Tower, her conversation with Lin Langtian immediately attracted a lot of attention. Many scrutinizing gazes swept over Lin Langtian, presumably wondering who this person was that had won the favor of the young lady of Myriad Merchants Tower...

Lin Langtian also sensed how popular Li Feier was and couldn't help but shake his head.

He was about to take his leave when he suddenly heard several whooshing sounds behind him. He glanced at them and frowned slightly, for the newcomer was none other than his nemesis, Sha Li.
