Holy Dragon Tuoba Xi; The Evil Soul Masters' Hidden Presence!

"Boom! Boom! Boom!"

A series of extremely heavy footsteps sounded, and the ground began to tremble incessantly, as if an earthquake had occurred.

Everyone, even the dignitaries in the VIP rooms of the auction house, turned their gaze through the crystal glass curtain wall to this strange person who was gradually approaching the auction house.

Because this person was so enormous, even just walking slowly gave everyone a strong sense of oppression, and the earthquake-like sound of his footsteps was what he made.

This person is at least 2.5 meters tall, possibly even close to 3 meters, and looks like a mountain of flesh.

Not only was his body enormous, but his head was also huge, and his eyes were as big as a bull's. His dark skin seemed to have a special glaze-like sheen.

"The Elephant Armor Sect of the Lower Four Sects?"

"The Celestial Hu Yanzhen? It's said his strength has reached level 89, just one step away from becoming a Title Douluo!"

"Heh, you don't know, Hu Yanzhen's Martial Soul is the Diamond Mammoth, with extremely strong defensive capabilities! Don't underestimate him just because he's only a Soul Douluo; his defensive power already surpasses that of most Title Douluo!"

Meanwhile, in a VIP room on the top floor of the auction house.

Platinum Bishop Salas frowned as he watched Hu Yanzhen approach from downstairs, and said with some displeasure, "Why is that old bastard Hu Yanzhen here too? Didn't I tell him that we don't have enough Longevity Pill and that he shouldn't come and compete with my Spirit Hall for them?"

"Hehe, Your Excellency, Hu Yanzhen is over seventy years old. Look at him, his hair and beard are all white. He also wants the Longevity Pill; he doesn't want to die either!"

Beside Salas, a man shrouded entirely in black robes sneered, "There is great terror between life and death. You think you can make Hu Yanzhen obediently go home and not participate in this auction with just a word from you? Your Excellency, you overestimate yourself!"

The Black-Robed Man had a clear and mellow voice; judging from his voice alone, he seemed like an upright person.

"Snort!"

Hearing the sarcasm in the Black-Robed Man's words, Salas snorted coldly and did not refute.

However, Salas's silence only fueled the Black-Robed Man's excitement. He said sarcastically, "Your Pope Bi Bi Dong of the Spirit Hall is truly a remarkable person. She has ordered the Lower Four Sects, all the kingdoms and duchies, as well as all the Soul Master families that have pledged allegiance to the Spirit Hall, not to participate in the auction, lest they compete with the Spirit Hall. This is simply outrageous."

"I'm sure no one will take her orders seriously! Everyone will come! Just you wait and see!"

As he spoke, the Black-Robed Man turned his gaze toward the entrance of the auction house.

Sure enough, as if by prior arrangement, after Tianxiang Hu Yanzhen of the Elephant Armor Sect entered the auction house, the other three major Lower Four Sects also arrived one after another!

"Young Master of the Wind Sword Sect, Miss Ye Zixiao has arrived!"

"Elder Aosilie of the Fire Leopard Sect has arrived!"

"The White Armor Earth Dragon Sect, Sect Master Tuo Ba Xi has arrived!"

Three chants rang out, and the next second, a purple-haired girl and two old men arrived together.

Seeing this, Salas's face turned extremely gloomy.

The Lower Four Sects have always supported the Spirit Hall. Although they are not affiliated with it, they are definitely of the same ilk. I never expected that this time, for the sake of the Longevity Pill, they would even disobey His Holiness the Pope's orders.

The White Armor Earth Dragon Sect, in particular, has the closest relationship with the Spirit Hall. In fact, they were directly separated from the Spirit Hall to form their sect.

Under the careful cultivation of the Spirit Hall, the White Armor Earth Dragon Sect has many experts. Among the Seven Great Sects, it ranks second only to the Upper Three Sects and far higher than the Elephant Armor Sect, which ranks sixth.

Their sect's Martial Soul is the White Armor Earth Dragon. The White Armor Earth Dragon cannot be considered a true Dragon Clan; it can only be described as a sub-dragon species.

But they were dragons after all, and their talent for cultivation was very high, especially the sect leader Tuo Ba Xi, who had reached level 89 at the young age of sixty.

Although his strength is currently the same as that of Hu Yanzhen, he is nearly twenty years younger than Hu Yanzhen. Pope Bi Bi Dong and the elders of the Elder Hall all believe that Tuo Ba Xi will be able to break through and become a noble Title Douluo in five years at most!

The Spirit Hall even came up with a title for Tuo Ba Xi: Holy Dragon Douluo!

In a few years, the Spirit Hall will begin its Soul Hunt Operation. After destroying the Upper Three Sects, the Seven Great Sects will inevitably be reordered.

At that time, the White Armor Earth Dragon Sect can be renamed the Holy Dragon Sect. Judging from the name, it is much more imposing than the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Family.

It can be said that the Spirit Hall has been good enough to the Tuo Ba Xi lineage. Unexpectedly, even they dared to disobey His Holiness the Pope's orders and come to bid for the pills without authorization.

"Heh heh, Salas, even His Holiness the Pope can't go against everyone's interests! Your Spirit Hall is too domineering, wanting to think about everything and control everything. This is not a good sign."

The Black-Robed Man chuckled coldly twice, then said, "The Lower Four Sects are just the beginning; many more are coming!"

Before the words were finished, the auctioneer shouted again:

"King of the Barak Kingdom, His Highness Kundera has arrived!"

"The Hagendas Kingdom..."

"The Karazan Grand Duchy..."

As the chants of fame continued to resound, all the dozens of kingdoms and duchies that had close ties with the Spirit Hall, except for a few that were too poor to afford, were present!

"See? I wasn't wrong."

The Black-Robed Man laughed smugly.

Upon hearing this, Salas glanced at the Black-Robed Man, no longer angry, and calmly said, "Even the wisest can make a mistake. His Holiness the Pope is simply acting rashly."

"As for you, Your Excellency, you mobilized hundreds of Holy Spirit disciples, messengers, and elders, yet you failed to complete a single mission. Instead, you caused Prince Hilo's tragic death in the palace. Your guilt is probably not insignificant."

"Tch, Hilo was good for nothing but ruining things; he deserved to die!"

The Black-Robed Man scoffed disdainfully, then said, "Our Holy Spirit Church has its own arrangements; it's none of your business. Lord Salas, you should be thinking about how to conceal our relationship, lest anyone discover your collusion with us Blood Soul Master. Otherwise, the Spirit Hall will be the first to punish you!"

After saying that, a black Soul Ring suddenly rose from the Black-Robed Man's body, with an age of at least 50,000 years.

The next moment, the black Soul Ring suddenly lit up, and a blood-red mist quickly surged out, obscuring the figure of the Black-Robed Man.

A moment later, the blood mist dissipated, and the Black-Robed Man had vanished without a trace. Only Salas, his face grim, remained in the room...

At the same time.

Another VIP room at the Heaven Dou Auction House.

Zhou Chen leaned back on the sofa in the VIP room, his eyes closed, as if he were asleep.

Zhu Zhuqing nestled beside Zhou Chen, resting her pretty head on his shoulder.

Zhou Chen had arrived long ago. After all, today's auction involved hundreds of millions of Gold Soul Coin, as well as the System and his own upgrades, so he had to be careful.

Suddenly, Zhou Chen opened his eyes and looked towards a corner of the auction house, where the Black-Robed Man had just been in Salas's room was now staying.

That's right, Zhou Chen just used his Heavenly Vision Earthly Hearing Technique to hear the entire conversation between Salas and the Black-Robed Man.

To be on the safe side, Zhou Chen had been using his Heavenly Vision Earthly Hearing Technique all day, listening to everyone in the entire auction house!

"Interesting. The Holy Spirit Church, filled with Evil Soul Master, has actually colluded with the Platinum Bishop of the Spirit Hall..."
