Ye Mo, I heard that this treasure palace was built by ancient elite fighters,
Nangong Wushang told Ye Mo.
Take a look at its material, and you can tell that it’s something special. There’s a hint of spirituality imbued in the building. I’m guessing that this isn’t an ordinary building, but a giant spirit weapon, probably as valuable as most treasure weapons.

The Spirit Treasure Hall was a spirit weapon in itself. Anyone who tried to do anything suspicious inside the building would automatically be attacked by the building’s weapon spirit.

The Zone of Seals is stronger than the Zone of Desolation,
Nangong Wushang said.
And the Seal City is the premier city in the zone. Naturally, no costs have been spared. Let’s head inside and inquire about the spirit seed.

Nangong Wushang gave off a laugh before the two of them headed into the crowd of people and the big palace.
Entering the huge palace, Ye Mo and Nangong Wushang paid no attention to the ordinary goods – goods of real quality would only appear in auctions.


After asking around, they found out that a huge auction was going to be held in half an hour.
Ye Mo and Nangong Wushang were obviously going to go to the auction to see if there were any rare treasures.
In time, the atmosphere in the Seal Treasure Pavilion slowly reached its climax. More and more people rushed into the place. What caught Ye Mo’s attention the most was the fact that there was a gigantic formation in the innermost part of the pavilion – a transportation formation.
Everyone surrounded the giant formation and, following a red light glow, an elder in his sixties walked out from the formation. Everyone watched the elder.

Everyone, our auction sale is about to begin,
he said loudly. His voice echoed throughout the palace.
Those who wish to enter the auction have to pay a fee of ten Transcendence Pills.


Tsk tsk, this Seal Treasure Pavilion sure knows how to profit,
Ye Mo said in shock.
Ten Transcendence Pills – if a thousand people enter the auction, they’ll get 10,000 Transcendence Pills off the entrance fee alone.


Ten pills are nothing to scoff at, but it’s nothing in the eyes of the true families of wealth,
Nangong Wushang said calmly.
The wealthy here are perhaps more than ten times richer than the Nangong Family – they have enough riches to buy a few kingdoms outright.


Perhaps this has to do with strength.
Ye Mo sighed. Back in the Limestone City, even Energy Stabilizing Pills were a rare commodity. A Transcendence Pill was nearly priceless – this was the unbridgeable gap on full display.

Come on, let’s go inside.
Nangong Wushang patted Ye Mo on his shoulder before taking ten Transcendence Pills from his Dimensional Bracelet.
Once they entered the transportation formation, Ye Mo and Nangong Wushang found themselves in a giant space. The space was circular and split into layers. Everyone participating in the transportation formation was sent to their assigned seat, with both sides covered, meaning that one could only see a blurred image of his opposite side.


With the opposite side hundreds of meters away, the circular area was extremely big.
The auction stage was set right in the middle of the space. All the items to be auctioned were transported via the transportation formation as well. This meant it would be extremely difficult for someone to steal them.
There were also two Fifth Tier Transcendence Realm fighters waiting on both sides of the auctioneer.

There are rumors that there’ll be a few strong seals up for grabs during this auction. If we get the chance to take a closer look, maybe we can try to mimic them.


Do you really think that it’ll be that easy to mimic? Even if it’s the same seal type, different seal artists will cultivate different seals due to their difference in powers. Different levels of awareness, realm, character, and talent among seal artists is also important. The type of seals that each artist can cultivate also has a world of difference.


True seal artist masters aren’t afraid of you copying their seals – no matter how much you try to mimic it, you’ll never reach their level.

The auction had yet to commence, but there were already plenty of people in a flurry of discussion.
Ye Mo was somewhat surprised to hear all this. They weren’t talking about how valuable the seals were, but instead how to mimic them.
Ye Mo had had a similar thought in the past. If it was a relatively unknown seal, with the seal text drawn on the seal paper, one only had to familiarize themselves with the seal text and they could replicate it.
But, based on the conversation, it appeared that the artists’ seal techniques had reached an extremely high level – it wasn’t just about drawing out the seal texts. The realization and will of the sealing artist factored into it as well. Naturally, different seal artists would get extremely different results, even if they try to cultivate the same type of seal.


As the people around them continued to chatter, an elder walked out from the transportation formation. He was clad in a white robe. With white hair and a white beard, he looked extremely serious, not a trace of a smile on his face.

Uncle Nangong, what realm is this elder in?
Ye Mo asked.

Looks like he’s in the Profound World Real,
Nangong Wushang said.
With even the auctioneer of such high caliber, it looks like the Seal City is indeed something else.


Having a fighter in the Profound World Realm as an auctioneer, tsk tsk.
Ye Mo was somewhat surprised as well.
Cough, cough.
As the chatter slowly subsided, the elder coughed a few times and said,
I am Master Fu Qian of the Seal Artist Association. I’ve been invited by the pavilion master to host this auction. Those who know me should know of my standards regarding seals.


It’s Master Fu Qian, of all people. Legend has it that he’s a master-level seal artist, and he himself has invented plenty of Level Five Seals.


Who would’ve thought that this auction would manage to invite Master Fu Qian. Looks like the seals for sale this time around are all pretty rare items.

As the elder finished speaking, another round of commotion erupted.

Level Five Seals could potentially kill a Ninth-Tier Transcendence Realm fighter in a matter of seconds.



Just thinking about it struck fear into Ye Mo’s heart. It would be extremely great if he could get a Level Five defensive seal.

Alright, enough talk. Let us begin!

As he finished speaking, a glow appeared from the transportation formation behind Master Fu Qian. A beautiful servant walked out towards the auction stage, slowly, a wooden box in hand.
Everyone stared at the auction stage.
Master Fu Qian slowly opened the wooden box, revealing a seal with a sparkling surface and a flurry of intelligible seal texts. A picture of a gigantic hill floated atop the seal.
Ye Mo could tell that the picture of the hill carried a strong, overwhelming force, possessing the pressure of the mountains and lakes.

This is a Level Four, Eighth Tier Attack Seal – the Mountain Lake Seal. When activated, it can suppress an Eighth Tier Transcendence Realm fighter. Carrying the Will of Nature, the starting price is 1000 Transcendence Pills.

As Master Fu Qian finished speaking, the whole crowd erupted into competing voices.

I raise 1500 Transcendence Pills.


I raise 2000 Transcendence Pills.




I raise 3000 Transcendence Pills.


I raise 3500 Transcendence Pills.

The bidding price multiplied tenfold, and the audience didn’t slow down.
Ye Mo was extremely interested in the Will of the ground. Had he not been here for the spirit seed, he would probably have bought one to conduct some research.
In mere moments, the Mountain Lake Seal was won by a tycoon for 5000 Transcendence Pills.
The next few rounds of auction were all seals – seals of all types that broadened Ye Mo’s horizon. Based on his current strength, without Ling’er’s guidance, there was no way that he could cultivate these seals.

The last round of the auction features an extremely rare item, not a seal.
Master Fu Qian smiled mysteriously as a servant stepped out, bringing out a wooden box.
Ye Mo stared intently at the box – an item that wasn’t a seal but was good enough to be used as the grande finale…

This spirit seed was formed using the essences of all the natural elements in the world. As for the magical effects of the spirit seed, do I need to say more?

Hearing that, Ye Mo’s pupils dilated. He had finally found it.
