"Seven million one hundred thousand!"

Sha Li, who was sitting at the front of the VIP seats, suddenly spoke up, drawing everyone's attention.

No one expected that the top genius of the Blood Demon Shark Clan would be interested in the Three Beasts Yuan Turning Art. After all, as a powerful clan among the sea monster races, the Blood Demon Shark Clan has its own unique heritage.

However, the eyes of some insiders flickered slightly. They knew that Sha Li had a fierce conflict with Lin Langtian a few days ago.

Although the conflict was suspended due to the intervention of Myriad Merchants Tower, it is clearly not over yet, and the battlefield now seems to have shifted to the auction house.

"Seven and a half million!" Lin Langtian frowned slightly as he looked at the scene, then spoke.

As the Palace Lord, he naturally has to keep his word. Since he has already promised to bestow the Three Beasts Yuan Turning Art upon Liu Da and the other two, he will not give up halfway. If Sha Li wants to trip him up, then let him come at me.

As Lin Langtian called out another bid, countless eyes immediately turned to him, seemingly eager to see more excitement.

Even Li Feier on the stage looked at Lin Langtian, and then glanced at the Liu Brothers behind Lin Langtian, clearly realizing something.

Although Li Feier preferred Lin Langtian, she also knew that the auction house had its own rules: the highest bidder wins, a rule that even she could not violate.

However, judging from Sha Li stance, he didn't seem to want to give up so easily.

"Seven million six hundred thousand!"

Sure enough, not long after Lin Langtian made his bid, Sha Li spoke up again. After bidding, he gave Lin Langtian a playful look, his mocking expression obvious even to those unaware of the situation.

This Sha Li is clearly being deliberately targeted.

Eight million!

Lin Langtian said calmly with an expressionless face, but careful observers noticed that a hint of killing intent had already emerged in Lin Langtian's eyes.

This Sha Li clung to him like a leech, utterly repulsive. Even Lin Langtian found it hard to contain his anger.

"Hehe, nine million!" Sha Li seemed to sense Lin Langtian's anger and immediately added fuel to the fire.

As a direct descendant of the Blood Demon Shark Clan, Sha Li's wealth is almost comparable to that of some powerful figures. Therefore, when he opened his mouth this time, he directly raised the price by one million, clearly not intending to give Lin Langtian a chance.

"Palace Lord, I think we should just forget about it. The Heavenly Mansion is newly established now, so we should save some funds for future development." The Liu Brothers looked at each other and then Liu Da spoke up.

Although I'm a little reluctant, continuing this competition would only far exceed the value of the Three Beasts Yuan Turning Art itself, which is not worthwhile.

Upon hearing this, Lin Langtian shook his head. This matter was no longer just about competing for the Three Beasts Yuan Turning Art, but also about saving face. Just as Lin Langtian was about to speak, a shout suddenly rang out beside him.

"Ten million."

The crowd erupted in uproar. Lin Langtian was also taken aback, then turned his head and saw Mu Lingshan smiling at him from the side.

A commotion, like a tidal wave, swept through the auction hall. Everyone stared in disbelief at the adorable little girl with two pigtails in the audience.

It's truly unexpected that such an astonishing price would actually come out of her mouth...

"LingShan, you..." Lin Langtian also looked at Mu Lingshan in surprise, equally surprised that she would interfere.

"Who told that guy to be so annoying?" Mu Lingshan muttered.

On the auction stage, Li Feier was also stunned by Mu Lingshan's bid. After a moment, she came back to her senses, looked at Mu Lingshan, and seemed to have thought of something, so she did not question it.

According to intelligence, this little girl also comes from an extremely powerful background. Ten million is an astronomical sum for ordinary people, but it is nothing to some top second-generation rich kids.

Seeing this, Li Feier immediately whispered, "Ten million once."

Upon hearing this, Sha Li's previously playful expression turned quite grim. He stared coldly at Lin Langtian and the other man, then sneered, "Eleven million."

Lin Langtian frowned. This guy really wasn't going to let it go.

"Thirteen million." Mu Lingshan was clearly provoked by Sha Li's provocation and stood up from her seat, her two pigtails swaying, as she shouted out another price that caused a murmur of surprise.

Sha Li's face twitched. A price of over ten million was not a small amount for him, but this little girl from the Undying Sacred Whale Clan had called out the price without hesitation. No wonder it was rumored that this little girl was very popular in the Undying Sacred Whale Clan.

"Fourteen million!" Sha Li took a deep breath, his voice dripping with Blood Qi.

Now that things have developed to this point, it's obvious to everyone that Sha Li is openly targeting Lin Langtian. Although top-tier Heavenly Martial Skill are valuable, how could they possibly be worth this price?

In the seats at the front of the auction, the various powerful forces were also somewhat surprised to see this scene. Then, a look of great interest appeared on their faces. They wanted to see how this competition would develop.

Mu Lingshan put her feet on the back of the chair, rolled up her sleeves, and glanced at Sha Li with her big eyes, her expression full of contempt.

Then she glanced at Sha Li, and her clear voice caused quite a stir in many people's hearts as she spoke, "Eighteen million!"

Wow!

Another astonishing uproar rippled out. Many people stared blankly at the little girl with her sleeves rolled up and her feet on the back of the chair. They felt an overwhelming aura emanating from her. This little girl was too fierce!

Eighteen million Xuan Yuan Pill? Does she think this is some kind of random gift?

The expression on Sha Li's face became extremely ugly because of the value of eighteen million.

He never expected that his original intention of merely trying to dampen Lin Langtian's arrogance would be completely thwarted by that little girl, Mu Lingshan.

"Young Master Sha Li..."

Beside Sha Li, the old men quickly spoke up. They were still competing for the last item, and it was unwise for them to spend so much money to fight and be fierce with others.

"Add more, add more, add more!"

However, while Sha Li's expression turned ugly, Mu Lingshan stood with her hands on her hips, constantly shouting and provoking him.

She was already extremely beautiful and cute, and with that clear voice, the entire auction hall burst into laughter. Amidst the laughter, Sha Li's expression became even more unpleasant.

"You!"

Sha Li's eyes blazed with fury. Being provoked like this by a little girl in front of so many people, even with his composure, he couldn't help but feel a surge of anger.

"Young Master Sha Li, hold back, don't be impulsive. Wait for the opportunity, wait until you can teach that Lin Langtian and that girl from the Undying Sacred Whale Clan a lesson. For now, just hold back..." The old man beside him quickly pulled him back and kept persuading him.

Sha Li's eyes grew increasingly bloodshot, and his Blood Qi surged violently. However, he still had good self-control. In the end, he took a deep breath to suppress the rage in his heart, then sat back down without saying another word. He looked quite disheveled.

Mu Lingshan watched as Sha Li slunk away, a smug look immediately appearing on her face. Then she turned her head and gave Lin Langtian a victory sign with a grin.

Lin Langtian was both amused and exasperated, saying, "Even if you have money, you shouldn't spend it like this."

However, Mu Lingshan ignored this, her little face full of smugness, probably because she had just thoroughly enjoyed Sha Li.

On the auction stage, Li Feier watched this farce unfold and couldn't help but smile bitterly. She then said, "If no one offers a higher price than this young lady, then this Three Beasts Yuan Turning Art will belong to her."

This time, no one made an offer. Having witnessed Mu Lingshan's previous aggressive bidding of millions upon millions, even the major powers sitting at the front had to consider their own financial resources.

With no one bidding higher, the auction of the Three Beasts Yuan Turning Art came to a final conclusion. The next item was brought out amidst the still-nagging noise of the hall, but not many people were paying attention to it at the moment.

All eyes were drawn to the little girl in blue with pigtails, and even the powerful figures turned their gazes toward her, presumably all wondering about Mu Lingshan's identity.

After all, being able to take out 18 million Xuan Yuan Pill without hesitation is a feat that ordinary people cannot accomplish.

The auction continued, but due to Mu Lingshan's earlier Traversing the Void move, although some of the later auction items had decent prices, they were far from reaching the 20 million mark, which slightly dampened the atmosphere in the auction hall.

After acquiring his first auction item, Lin Langtian felt much more at ease and began to pay attention to the upcoming auctions.

It must be said that the auction hosted by Myriad Merchants Tower was indeed quite excellent. The endless stream of auction items was all-encompassing, including martial arts techniques, Spirit Treasure, spiritual materials, and almost everything else. No wonder people say that as long as you have enough Xuan Yuan Pill, you can get anything you want here...

And thanks to this, when the dazzling array of auctions appeared one after another, Lin Langtian was pleasantly surprised to see something that Mu Lingshan needed again, which was the ' Sea King Spirit Grass ' that she had mentioned a few days ago. This thing would be of great help in breaking her seal.

Such spiritual materials are always quite precious, but due to their special effects, there aren't many buyers. So, in the end, Lin Langtian acquired the ' Sea King Spirit Grass ' for one million.

As for this time, Sha Li didn't bid again, clearly afraid of Mu Lingshan, this little rich woman.

"Thump."

Just as Lin Langtian won the bid for the Sea King Spirit Grass, a clear bell rang out from the auction stage. To his surprise, the next item up for auction was a Lower Pure Yuan Treasure.

As a result, many people in the auction house had their eyes light up with excitement. Such treasures are usually only possessed by powerful forces; ordinary people can't even dream of getting them.

"Even Pure Origin Treasure can appear..."

Lin Langtian gazed at the auction stage, where Li Feier held a dark red spear in her hand. The spear was shaped like a fire dragon.

The dragon's body forms the spear shaft, with a blazing wave of flames swirling around it, as if flames would erupt with the slightest swing.

According to Li Feier's previous introduction, this spear is called the ' Fire Dragon Splitting Mountain Spear '. It is a Lower Pure Yuan Treasure with considerable power. Of course, its price is also extremely high, with the starting price alone reaching ten million.

Clearly, only powerful entities are qualified to compete for such items, so when the price was announced, many people shook their heads in disappointment.

Of course, the major powers present were indeed quite envious of this ' Fire Dragon Splitting Mountain Spear '. The bidding war was even more intense than when Mu Lingshan had made her move earlier. In just a few minutes, the spear was successfully snatched up by a major power called ' Asura Gate ' for a high price of 27 million...

Lin Langtian watched the outcome of the fight, his brows furrowing slightly. He was also quite tempted by the item, but unfortunately, he didn't have enough resources. Although Mu Lingshan, whose family background was unknown, was sitting next to him, Lin Langtian clearly couldn't let her compete for it.

"Next up is our ultimate prize for this auction..."

As the lingering excitement subsided, a captivating smile appeared on Li Feier's face on the auction stage. As she finished speaking, Lin Langtian sensed that the powerful figures sitting in front seemed to have quietly straightened their backs.

"It seems like everyone's here for this..."

Lin Langtian frowned slightly. Judging from the situation, these people had obviously come prepared, which made him a little curious about what it was that could make them so concerned.

"What follows concerns a cave dwelling that is said to have been inherited by a Reincarnation Stage expert. I think everyone should understand its value."

As soon as Li Feier finished speaking, the atmosphere in the auction hall exploded. A tidal wave of exclamations spread like a tsunami, and countless people suddenly stood up, their eyes showing a hint of madness.

Li Feier was not surprised by the commotion in the arena. She then clenched her fist, and a black light flashed. Finally, a Black Token about a foot in size appeared.

This Black Token seemed to swirl with an endless black hole, sucking up everything around it. At the same time, an ancient wave swept out, astonishing everyone.

Lin Langtian's gaze immediately fell on the Black Token in Li Feier's hand. In the next instant, he suddenly felt the Devouring Ancestral Symbol within his body vibrate wildly.

At the same time, he also sensed a very peculiar fluctuation from the Black Token, a fluctuation that was exactly the same as that of the Devouring Ancestral Symbol!

"That is..."

Lin Langtian narrowed his eyes slightly, a hint of surprise appearing in them, and then he thought to himself.

"That's right, the master of this Reincarnation Cave Mansion must be the master of the Devouring Ancestral Symbol recorded in the Ancient Map..."
