On top of the pile of shamble, even a needle drop could be heard.
Everyone at the scene was utterly speechless as they all focused their gazes on Ling Xian. They were somewhat annoyed and somewhat helpless.
The exact same tone, the exact same statement, even the undoubtful arrogance, and dominance was the same. Everyone was speechless.
Mu Feng was especially exhausted at the turn of events. He was near crying as he regretted his decision of not slamming down his hammer earlier. If only he didn’t lavishly hope for the price to keep on raising.
Look what happened now? 15,000,000 spiritual stones… Not even half a spiritual stone was left. How could he not feel regretful?
Pity though, having regrets now is useless.
Since Ling Xian had spoken, it means there was no way out regarding this situation now. The imperfect Fire Taming Pearl was now under his possession.
This made everyone speechless and made Mu Feng clench his teeth. Even the man dressed in black was unable to remain collected. Though it was impossible to see his visage, from the way his body quivered and the chair that was now in pieces, it was apparent how absolutely enraged he was.
A treasure that was pretty much already his was snatched away from him, who wouldn’t be angry at this? If they fought against each other head-on and he lost, then he wouldn’t complain.
But Ling Xian merely left behind a statement and gained ownership of the Fire Taming Pearl, how could everyone here not be angry?
If he were completely confident about being able to suppress Ling Xian, then he would’ve dashed up there right at this moment.

Mu Clan Leader, this is the second treasure I am choosing. Isn’t it time for you to hand it to me?
Ling Xian teasingly spoke. He wasn’t just doing all this to provoke everyone; he truly wanted this Fire Taming Pearl.
Don’t forget, ten years ago, he acquired the Water Taming Pearl. Legend also had it that if he can collect all five pearls, then something miraculous would occur.
As for what kind of miraculous event, not many people know in the entire Taoism community.
Even though this Fire Taming Pearl and the Water Taming Pearl he acquired were both imperfect treasures, since he has encountered them, then it is fate. He wasn’t going to let it go so easily.
This was why Ling Xian was asking for it out loud.

Aye, god damn this bastard.

Mu Feng cursed Ling Xian beneath his breath. However, he had to appear very cheerful on the outside,
Yes, I will hand over the Fire Taming Pearl right away.

Then, he formed a fist with one hand and cupped it with another as a way to tell everyone how sorry he was.
Seeing this, everyone softly sighed. After experiencing it once, experiencing it for the second time was a little easier. After all, even if Ling Xian didn’t speak out, the Fire Taming Pearl still wouldn’t belong to them.
Therefore, they didn’t comment anymore.

Aye, 15,000,000 is gone just like that.

Mu Feng exhaled deeply. When he was reminded of the 15,000,000 giant sum of spiritual stones, his heart began to bleed. Sadly, no matter how much his heart ached, he could only repress the pain he was feeling and throw the Fire Taming Pearl to Ling Xian.

Very good.
Ling Xian accepted the Fire Taming Pearl and smiled in satisfaction,
Mu Clan Leader, continue the auction.


Yes, of course.
Mu Feng sighed. Then, he took out another auction item and started the next round of the auction.
The atmosphere was hyped up once again with offers being shouted one after another.
Ling Xian still did not participate in this. He observed the fire red pearl inside his palm and grinned,
Not bad. Though this object is not in perfect condition, it’s still about 50 percent effective. In the future, if I ever find myself in a forest of fire, I can safely walk through it using this treasure without threatening my life.

The Fire Taming Pearl was one of the five spiritual pearls and has the ability to avoid all sorts of fires in the world. Even the world’s most terrifying Flaming Fire Sea will pose no threat to the owner of this treasure.

With the Water Taming Pearl, which I already have, I now have two spiritual pearls. If I am lucky, I can perhaps collect all five.
Ling Xian smiled in satisfaction and placed the Fire Taming Pearl into his storage pouch.
Under a normal circumstance, the Fire Taming Pearl and similar treasures are not necessarily useful. However, for freak incidents when one finds oneself in an ocean of fire, the object can really unleash its effects and save one’s life.

Congratulations, you have acquired another treasure.
Huang Er smiled.

This is all thanks to the Mu Clan. If they didn’t allow me to pick any three treasures I desired, how would I have been able to acquire these two treasures.
Ling Xian sarcastically laughed.
Huang Er laughed out loud and responded,
The Mu Clan really did lose their bait with their fish. Master, look at Mu Feng’s face. Ahahaha, how fun this is to watch.


I think that when I pick my third treasure of choice, his expression will be even funnier to look at.
Ling Xian softly smiled. He no longer spoke and waited patiently for the third treasure that can make his heart pound.

Since the Mu Clan provoked him first, they had to give him the right to choose any three treasures at will as a way to apologize. He naturally had to use all of his rights.
Just like that, rare item after item passed through Mu Feng’s hand and was bid on by various people. Sadly, Ling Xian could not discover a single item that excited him.
As time went on, he became very much impatient. If he didn’t have a third opportunity to pick something, he would’ve left a long time ago.

Perhaps this is the change that capability brings. Subjectively speaking, everything here was considered valuable. Yet they don’t trigger any interest in me.
Ling Xian softly sighed, and his eyes revealed how disappointed he was.
However, just as he was on the brink of hopelessly, the appearance of the last auction item turned up the temperature in his eyes.
It was a palm-sized golden scale with traces of blood stains on top. The moment it appeared, it emitted an incomparable amount of pressure that mimicked the descendant of a demon. Everyone at the scene began to sweat, and they couldn’t help but lower their back in response to the immense pressure.
Only Ling Xian was able to sit in his chair comfortably. However, if one observed careful, one would see that there were balls of sweat forming on his forehead.
From this, it became apparent that even he was having some trouble against the pressure.

This is!

Everyone fell into awe. They could not imagine, no matter how much they tried, how giant of a monster it was to be able to take everyone’s breath away with its mere Qi.
When Mu Feng announced where this gold scale came from, everyone’s astonishment turned into bedazzlement.

This item was found in one of the ruins in the Mu Clan. After inspection and confirmation from experts, we came to a shocking conclusion.

Mu Feng inhaled and exhaled with difficulty as he spoke with a curved back,
This item, is the legendary scale from the body of a real dragon!

A thousand waves were being created, and they roared. The moment the statement was made, everyone at the scene boiled.
A real dragon!
Such simple words carried the weight of thousands of mountains and an undeniable amount of shock!
Remember that in today’s fallen Taoism community, real dragons have turned into legends and they are impossible to be found. In legends, real dragons are truly terrifying and can fight against real immortals with their unimaginable amount of power!
Other than the heaven-defying battling capabilities, treasures can be found all over a real dragon. Even a drop of its blood was a heavenly item that was next to impossible to find.
Before everyone’s eyes, a scale belonging to a real dragon was present. How could everyone not feel astonished?!
Even Ling Xian was somewhat stunned at this. He didn’t think that there’d come a day when he would see the legendary golden dragon’s scale.
After a moment of awe, nobody made an offer. Instead, all eyes were all Ling Xian.
Because they knew very well that they had no rights to own such a heavenly object. The only person with the right for this treasure was Ling Xian.
Fck all of this!
As everyone’s gaze fixated on Ling Xian, Mu Feng almost puked out a mouthful of old blood. Even the root of his teeth was aching.
