The disappearance of the Verdant Root of Life of life.
And the map left on the stone platform.
Everything seemed extremely strange.
It wasn't just Ye Qiubai, Mu Fusheng, Xiao Hei, and others.
Even Hong Ying, the strongest disciple among the current disciples of the Cottage, was completely unaware.
It is possible to do that.
Only those at the Heaven Immortal Realm can do this.
Holding the map, Mu Fusheng asked with a grave expression, "What should we do now? It's obvious that the person who took the Verdant Root of Life and left this map wants to lure us here."
Ye Qiubai nodded and said, "To be able to do this silently requires considerable cultivation. If someone had malicious intentions, they probably wouldn't have needed to go through such a roundabout way."
Hong Ying nodded as well.
"However, it's still better to be cautious. After all, didn't Junior Brother Xiao Hei say that those rebels might have already arrived in this latitude?"
At this time...
Mu Fusheng suddenly received a telepathic message.
Then, Mu Fusheng said, "In that case, let's go back to the shore first. The sect leader just sent me a message saying that there is an information auction that will begin in three days."
Upon hearing this, everyone nodded and hurried towards the shore of the Endless Sea.
Information auction, as the name suggests.
It mainly involves auctioning various kinds of information.
The fact that the meeting was held in the Endless Sea indicates that the information mainly concerns the inheritance, opportunities, and heavenly materials and earthly treasures within the Endless Sea.
This information is likely not marked on the map.
On the way, Mu Fusheng was the person in the Cottage who knew the Mid-Latitude Realm best.
He explained.
"This information auction was initiated by the Tianjin Chamber of Commerce."
"The Tianjin Chamber of Commerce is the largest chamber of commerce in the entire Mid-Latitude Realm, with offices almost covering all regions."
"Furthermore, even a top-tier power like the Holy Talisman Sect is unaware of its true strength."
"I've only heard that if the Tianjin Chamber of Commerce to fully support any one faction, that faction could instantly become a top power in the Mid-Latitude Realm, surpassing all other forces..."
"Fortunately, the Tianjin Chamber of Commerce remained neutral."
Hong Ying smiled and glanced at Mu Fusheng beside her, "You seem to know quite a lot."
Xiao Hei said in a low voice, "After arriving in the Mid-Latitude Realm, the first thing my Junior Brother Mu did was to figure out all the forces in the entire Mid-Latitude Realm..."
Everyone else couldn't help but laugh.
Sure enough, this is so Mu Fusheng!
Mu Fusheng shrugged and said, "Know yourself and know your enemy, and you will never be defeated. It's always good to be cautious."
Information auctions are not without their barriers to entry.
Firstly, it cannot accommodate so many people.
Secondly, generally speaking, people who lack strength and influence are unable to obtain any useful information.
After all, how many chosen ones from different planes are there in this world?
To enter the information auction held by the Tianjin Chamber of Commerce, one must have a purple-gold invitation sent by the Tianjin Chamber of Commerce.
Of course, forces like the Holy Talisman Sect, Immortal Ape Village, and Heavenly Sword Peak are all qualified to receive invitations.
The Holy Talisman Sect received six invitations, while Immortal Ape Village and Heavenly Sword Peak received three.
The strength of Immortal Ape Village is unknown to outsiders; even the Tianjin Chamber of Commerce knows little about it, which is why they only have three cards.
As for the purple-gold invitations from Immortal Ape Village, Ye Qiubai and his group gave them all to Xiao Hei when they returned to the shore.
Similarly, Huo Zhengheng also gave two cards to Ye Qiubai.
The Holy Talisman Sect also gave two of them to Mu Fusheng.
The seven people at the Cottage received just the right number of purple and gold invitations.
Now, all we have to do is wait three days for the information auction to begin.
And during these three days...
Countless messages about the information auction were released.
For example, the legacy of the Peak of the Heaven Immortal Realm expert.
For example, it possesses legendary Immortal Spirit Technique.
Above the Heavenly Spirit Technique lies the Immortal Spirit Technique.
Alternatively, there is the Immortal Transformation Pill, which can convert half of the Spiritual Qi in the body into Immortal Qi.
All of these things.
This applies to cultivators in both the Turbid Immortal Realm and the Earth Immortal Realm.
Even experts at the Heaven Immortal Realm hold immense appeal!
In an instant, countless powerful figures sprang into action, rushing back from the Endless Sea.
The purple-gold invitation was also obtained by someone at an extremely high cost.
Even more so, in order to obtain the purple-gold invitation.
Some Rogue Cultivator who did not receive the Purple Gold Invitation from the Tianjin Chamber of Commerce even risked everything to form an alliance and plot to rob those powerful forces that possessed the Purple Gold Invitation!
After all, the truth of these messages is unknown, but the temptation is simply too great.
Furthermore, the information auction was hosted by the Tianjin Chamber of Commerce.
You know, the products from the Tianjin Chamber of Commerce can't be bad.
Even if it is information, it must be information that is not marked on the map and is extremely important.
That's why countless people can't suppress their greed and choose to walk on a tightrope.
This led to the situation over these three days.
Dozens of second-rate, and even first-rate, forces were ambushed by a group of cultivators who did not have the purple-gold invitation.
In an instant, the city was engulfed in turmoil, with countless dead and injured.
There were successes and failures.
This also caused great caution among the forces that had not yet been attacked and possessed the purple-gold invitation.
It caused widespread panic.
That night.
Holy Talisman Sect stronghold.
After hearing this news.
Ye Qiubai leaned against the window, looking at the night view outside.
Outside, there is no tranquility that belongs solely to the night.
Instead, violent Spiritual Qi was everywhere.
Battle scenes are constantly emerging.
"The intention to spread the news is far too obvious."
Hearing Ye Qiubai's words.
Ning Chenxin, who was reading a book nearby, nodded seriously and said, "It is too obvious, but its effect is also very significant. It successfully depleted the strength of those forces, and... diverted the attention of other forces."
Mu Fusheng shrugged and said, "If you want to achieve these goals, then the only option is the Avici Purgatory."
"I'm afraid they're taking advantage of the chaos to do something now."
Hong Ying calmly replied, "We'll find out then. But is it possible that the Tianjin Chamber of Commerce also involved?"
Upon hearing this news, the expressions of the others became slightly solemn.
After all, according to Mu Fusheng...
The Tianjin Chamber of Commerce has such a strong foundation.
If this matter involves the Tianjin Chamber of Commerce, then things will get complicated.
Why would you say that?
When the Tianjin Chamber of Commerce launched its information auction, these rumors spread like wildfire, immediately reaching the ears of cultivators and other forces.
At the same time, a gold-plated invitation is required to enter the auction.
Is this really just a coincidence?
Shi Sheng shook his head blankly and said, "I don't think so. Didn't Junior Brother Mu say that the Tianjin Chamber of Commerce always maintained neutrality?"
Mu Fusheng nodded and said, "I hope so. If the Tianjin Chamber of Commerce and the Avici Purgatory are cooperating, then we might be in some trouble."
After all, Qi Shadao had always been eyeing them covetously.
Especially Xiao Hei's powerful physical body...
