Peerless Hidden Weapon!

Lin Ziyi's gaze swept across the faces of the crowd, and he quickly spotted some familiar faces that bore a resemblance to the descriptions in the original work.

Two smiling faces soon caught his attention.

Lin Ziyi was very familiar with one of them; it was one of the ten people from the previous auction, that mature beauty in the ink-style qipao!

She was also the one who had acquired the last Level 95 Titled Douluo in the previous auction.

Lin Ziyi was curious about her true identity, as she had managed to outbid three Limit Douluo to win the item.

At the same time, he was surprised that she had entered the Misty Auction House twice. Did the System think she was too rich?

As for the other person, Lin Ziyi had never seen him before.

However, the man didn't seem surprised to be here; instead, a morbid excitement flickered across his face!

It was clear he had heard about this place before entering.

Lin Ziyi guessed that one of the ten people from the previous auction must have told their associates about this place after returning.

Looking at the man dressed in golden heavy armor, with the "pauldrons" on his shoulders shaped like crocodile heads!

This reminded him of someone – the Martial Soul Hall's Second Worship, Golden Crocodile Douluo!

Both the golden patterns on his face and his arrogant demeanor perfectly matched his guess.

If it really was Golden Crocodile Douluo, then he had clearly heard about this place from Qian Daoliu!

Lin Ziyi withdrew his gaze and, as the crowd buzzed with discussion, slowly spoke:

"Quiet."

These two simple words struck the crowd like thunder!

Everyone in the venue immediately turned pale and fell silent.

Golden Crocodile Douluo's expression shifted slightly, clearly surprised that the voice of this black-robed figure had made his soul tremble!

However, as the Martial Soul Hall's Second Worship, a Level 98, he was practically the strongest Super Douluo on the continent, second only to Limit Douluo!

His innate arrogance wouldn't allow him to be intimidated by a mere pretender!

Just as he was about to mobilize his Soul Power to showcase his might to everyone present, he suddenly discovered with horror that his Soul Power was gone!!

His proud and powerful reliance had vanished without a trace!

Yet, he hadn't felt any abnormality in his body. When did his Soul Power disappear?!

Could it have been stripped away or sealed the moment he was pulled into this space by that invisible force?

Recalling the helpless expression and words of the Great Enshriner from before, Golden Crocodile Douluo suddenly realized that the other party hadn't lied to him!

This profound sense of powerlessness brought back memories of his days as a weak Soul Master a hundred years ago.

Facing this black-robed figure now, he felt a fear he hadn't experienced in a long time!

This space, this black-robed figure, could easily suppress even Qian Daoliu's nearly Level 100 Soul Power...

Could it be that this black-robed figure was a Deity that hadn't appeared on the continent for thousands of years?!

There was no other explanation for the current situation...

After a long silence, Golden Crocodile Douluo finally set aside his pride and decided to observe the situation first.

According to the Great Enshriner, as long as he didn't disrupt the auction order, there would be no danger...

He had originally intended to test the Great Enshriner's words, relying on his status as a Level 98 Super Douluo.

But now that he couldn't even mobilize a sliver of Soul Power, where would he find the confidence to show off in front of everyone?

As the venue quieted down, Lin Ziyi continued in a clear, cold voice:

"Welcome, everyone, to the Misty Auction House!

"Most of you are likely here for the first time, but some are already regular customers.

"I will reiterate the rules of the auction house: this place exists above the Douluo Continent!

"As long as you have sufficient funds, you can bid on powerful items and rare treasures that are scarce or even non-existent on the Douluo Continent!

"I believe that those invited here are not only destined to be here but are also wealthy magnates.

"From now on, whether you treat this place as a dream or reality, please enjoy this auction.

"When the auction concludes, I will present each of you with a small gift."

After listening to Lin Ziyi's introduction, the crowd generally understood where they had arrived.

Although they were unsure why they were brought here.

Since it was just an auction, as long as the process went normally, they should be able to safely end this unsettling dream.

Soon, everyone calmed their emotions through their own means.

Some with strong adaptability had already begun to anticipate what magical items would be auctioned here!

As the auction stand in front of Lin Ziyi rose, a golden orb of light appeared in everyone's sight.

Lin Ziyi gripped the Myriad Heavens Auction Hammer in his hand and struck the golden light sphere.

Instantly, the golden light sphere, like a struck ostrich egg, showed cracks appearing on its surface.

In the next moment, it shattered into countless light spots, and the hidden auction item was instantly revealed to everyone:

It was an object resembling a peacock fanning its tail, or like an opened folding fan, presenting a semi-circular shape.

Unlike ordinary wooden folding fans, the surface of this "folding fan" emitted a warm metallic luster.

The tips of the fan ribs were like sharp daggers!

The fan ribs were connected by incredibly exquisite, tiny metal pieces, looking like a precise yet beautiful mechanism!

Seeing this fan, and hearing the System's introduction, Lin Ziyi was the first to be surprised.

Because this object was nothing else but a "hidden weapon" from another world!

And it had a beautiful yet dangerous name—Peacock Plume!!

In the original work, during the final great battle, Xiao Wu used this hidden weapon, ranked fourth on the hidden weapon list, to severely injure the Martial Soul Hall's Third Enshriner, a Level 97 Azure Phoenix Douluo!

This showed how powerful this peerless hidden weapon was!

After understanding the information, Lin Ziyi explained it in words that everyone could better understand:

"This item is called the [Peacock Plume], an advanced Soul Tool!

"As long as Soul Power is injected into it, its 365 internal needle-like weapons can be activated silently!

"Its superior concealment, combined with the potent poison coated on it.

"Once it hits an enemy, it can achieve a kill by bypassing at least two major tiers below a Titled Douluo!

"Even a Titled Douluo using this Soul Tool can inflict heavy injuries on an opponent two levels higher than them!

"The starting bid is 1000 Gold Soul Coins! Each bid must be no less than 200 Gold Soul Coins!"

After listening to Lin Ziyi's explanation, the hundred people in the venue immediately exclaimed!

Bypassing two major tiers below a Titled Douluo? And at the Titled Douluo level, it can bypass two minor levels... Isn't this Soul Tool too overpowered?

Is the very first auction item this amazing??? Could this person in black mist be bragging and faking it?

Just as everyone was doubting, the woman in the ink-wash style qipao at seat "Fifty-Six" was the first to raise her fair, tender arm:

"1500 Gold Soul Coins!!"

Lin Ziyi looked at her and found that she was also smiling at him.

Clearly, this woman had already tasted the benefits from that Level 95 Fox Demon and unhesitatingly placed her bid!
