After focusing on him, Li Yunmu noticed that the bird man’s outer appearance was quite different from that of humans; he had snow-white wings on his back. Regardless of wherever he went, they were bound to attract attention.
However, even with such a conspicuous appearance, Li Yunmu had subconsciously overlooked him. If Wang Ren hadn’t pointed him out, Li Yunmu may have ignored him for the whole auction
This was extremely strange.
At that moment, Li Yunmu finally understood what was strange. The man was meticulously emitting a formless pressure to make people meticulously neglect his presence.
Even if Li Yunmu’s perception had increased recently and he possessed a keen intuition, he still couldn’t escape the birdman’s influence and subconsciously overlook his existence.
What race does he belong to?
Li Yunmu enquired in a deadpan voice.
Eh, if the records collected by the successive generations of Pangu aren’t wrong, he should be a Deus.
While saying that, Wang Ren subsciously lowered his voice to the extreme.
Clearly, even if he was just an ordinary person who didn’t understand cultivators’ power levels, he was was still afraid of the Deus.
Him…
Li Yunmu was extremely astonished when he heard Wang Ren’s words.
Not long ago, Li Yunmu had learned that Deus was the most formidable race among the thousand races of the Origin World and that they hadn’t appeared in the world for a long time. They were said to live in the clouds. high above the world.
Under the gravitational pull of the Origin World, it wasn’t easy to step foot above the clouds when compared to Earth.
Even if a sage flux expert possessed the strength to fly, the greatest height which their strength allowed them to reach was around three kilometers above ground.
But this was far below the altitude of clouds. Yet each member of the most formidable race, the Deus, could live above the clouds. This clearly showed just how terrifying they were.
But the legendary Deus were said to not have come down for a long time. Yet Wang Ren guessed that the alien race person which resembled a bird man was surprisingly a legendary Deus?
With Wang Ren’s explanation though, he gradually understood the meaning behind the status provided to the people of Sound.
Wang Ren had learned from the records in the library that the reason why the Deus provided asylum to the Sound was mainly because their women were one of the companions of Deus for breeding and producing descendants.
Sound people actually used a Matrilineal system.
In each year’s festival of the Sound, a large number of girls who had recently entered adulthood would come out. The best of them who surpassed others in all aspects would then be delivered to Deus. They would become vessels for sowing seeds for the next generation of the Deus.
Because of this, the weak Sound people were one of the few who received asylum from the Deus.
According to Wang Ren’s explanation, every member of the Deus possessed an extremely tyrannical bloodline which made it extremely difficult to produce offspring among themselves.
Apart from the Sound, who had become the target for sowing next generation’s seeds, there were three more races who received the same treatment.
After hearing Wang Ren’s words, Li Yunmu couldn’t help but feel sorrow for the weak race. He clearly understood why races like the Sound would basically take the initiative to offer their most beautiful, pure, and outstanding women to the Deus. It was all to ensure the continuous survival of their race.
Clearly, the woman who had a Deus protecting her wasn’t an ordinary one.
She was likely to be someone who carried an offspring of the Deus. Otherwise, she wouldn’t deserve the personal protection of a Deus standing guard by her side.
But even after Wang Ren’s explanations, Li Yunmu still couldn’t feel the bird man’s existence nor could get a feel about his strength.
He couldn’t see through him, he still couldn’t see through him.
Li Yunmu secretly used a few tricks, but he still couldn’t see through the Deus. Instead, the other party seemed to have sensed his actions and began to check his surroundings in confusion.
Li Yunmu was slightly astonished and quickly withdrew his probing tricks.
From that moment, he became even more certain that the birdman who didn’t seem to possess even a single iota of power was frighteningly formidable.
Even if Li Yunmu possessed the Azure Dragon Expert Armor which had allowed his combat strength to leap to the point that he could battle sage flux experts, he still couldn’t match up to the birdman.
Like a bird startled by a mere twang of a bow, Li Yunmu withdrew his thoughts and no longer spied on the other party. Even if given his strength he could be counted among the powerhouses of the Origin World, he still wasn’t powerful enough to stand against the Deus who were the most powerful of the thousand races.
Pangu City’s auction continued after the first sale. The second item to be auctioned also left Li Yunmu completely startled.
It was another weapon of Pangu which didn’t lose to the previous blade.
It had also been nourished by a high level Pangu warrior for more than thirty years and was also a nine-patterned weapon. Moreover, while following the high level Pangu warrior for many years, it had drank the blood of many formidable lifeforms and had transformed into a baleful weapon.
When such a rare weapon which excited many people was brought out, it was foreordained that there would be a fierce competition to acquire it.
The hatchet finally sold for one million three hundred eighty thousand pangu sacred coins and was obtained by the formidable Ba Wang. Li Yunmu thought about competing for a few times, but in the end, he suppressed that urge once more.
Yet the following nine items in the auction were all surprisingly nine- and ten-patterned pangu weapons, which caused many people to feel that something was odd.
Could the food have grown so scarce that year that they didn’t hesitate to even auction so many of their customized weapons?
Although no sage grade weapons had appeared, the auctioning of several nine- and ten-patterned ordinary grade weapons was already an event which happened only once in a century.
After all, which of the ten ordinary grade weapons hadn’t been nourished by a high level Pangu warrior for at least ten years? Probably even the Pangu soldiers couldn’t get ahold of them, so where could they find a surplus to sell to outsiders?
And yet the Pangu had auctioned off ten such weapons for food. It reflected just how horrible was the food situation that year.
After the bidders obtained the ten Pangu weapons, the auction entered the free sale segment.
During it, the Pangu wouldn’t be officiating the auction, but would allow the people who had come from all around the world to take out their valuable possessions and auction them.
Originally, Li Yunmu had believed that after sell-off of the treasures from the treasury of Black Spirit Valley, he possessed sufficient funds to fight in the grand finale of the auction. But after seeing people from Sound as well as all sorts of other powerful races, he no longer had the confidence to win.
Thus, he thought for a while and decided to take out the ten treasure maps which were comparatively useless to him and auction them off systematically in the free sale segment.
