Chapter 577: Chapter 578: The Six Paths Devil Sect (Third Update)

"What? This person actually dared to make an offer?"

"The tone of this speech, he actually doesn’t take the Ancient Desolate Sect seriously. Who in the world is this? Box number eleven should belong to someone from the Heavenly Merchant Association, but when did such an arrogant person appear within their ranks?"

"Impressive, daring to vie for items with people from the seven great sects, we actually have such an individual in the Northern Region!"

Many martial artists communicated with their divine senses down below.

"Damn it! This kid is intentionally opposing me!"

The rage in Gu Lin’s heart was so intense it felt like it could destroy heaven and earth.

"Elder Brother Gu, let’s make a move and kill this person!"

"An immediate execution! People who dare to contend with our Ancient Desolate Sect only have one path—death!"

"Let’s do it right now, during the auction, kill this person and let everyone know that the majesty of the seven great sects cannot be provoked!"

The disciples of the Ancient Desolate Sect, one after another, said this with impassioned voices.

As disciples of the Ancient Desolate Sect, and of the seven great sects, each of them was prideful and arrogant, taking pride in their identities as members of the seven great sects.

Now, Chu Fengmian’s words were a direct insult, not even taking the seven great sects into account, which was an endless provocation to them.

"Stop! Now is not the time to kill!"

Gu Lin’s gaze shifted rapidly, and he spoke slowly afterward.

"The reason we came here was for the piece of the extremity divine weapon. This matter is of great importance even to our sect. We cannot afford to have conflicts with the Heavenly Pavilion now."

"This kid is a dead man sooner or later. Letting him have the Jianmu branches for now is of no consequence. Once we leave the Heavenly Pavilion, that will be this kid’s death sentence. I have placed a special restriction on his body—he could flee to the ends of the earth, and we would still be able to hunt him down."

"Yes."

The other Ancient Desolate Sect disciples quickly agreed.

The number ten box became silent for a long while, and then Gu Lin’s hearty laughter emerged from it.

"Your Excellency is truly wealthy, I have to admire you for that. I won’t compete with you any longer, but please remember the principle that one should not flaunt their wealth. Meeting disaster because of wealth, please be careful, Your Excellency."

The killing intent in Gu Lin’s speech was fully revealed—it sounded like a reminder, but it was actually a threat.

Everyone could hear the threat in Gu Lin’s words.

"Chu Fengmian, this person must already hold a grudge against you. They dare not act recklessly within the auction, but once you leave the auction, I fear they will not let it go so easily."

Upon hearing the murderous intent in Gu Lin’s voice, Bai Xuan also felt a chill in her heart.

Gu Lin’s strength was even above that of Hong Yu, and coupled with his identity as a disciple of the Ancient Desolate Sect, he was undoubtedly a terrifying figure.

Provoking them was not a good thing.

"It doesn’t matter, I have already killed more than one Ancient Desolate Sect disciple. Offending a few more makes no difference,"

Chu Fengmian spoke calmly.

"As long as one has enough strength, the people from the seven great sects count for nothing. You can even annihilate the seven great sects."

Annihilate the seven great sects...

Upon hearing Chu Fengmian’s words, Bai Xuan was utterly shocked.

In Bai Xuan’s heart, the enormous presence of the seven great sects had always been something you dared not provoke.

Let alone annihilate the seven great sects, even the idea of contending with them was something that Bai Xuan never dared entertain.

"This person’s mindset is terrifying to the extreme. He fears no powerful enemy. Indeed, this is the most necessary trait to become a strong person. I too should not fear. Only by fearing nothing can one become a true powerhouse."

Bai Xuan thought to herself, and with that thought, the aura around her began to soar.

She reached the limit of the Divine Power realm in an instant, breaking through her mental barriers and perfecting her state.

Just by seeking one opportunity, she would be able to overcome the great tribulation of life and death and become a cultivator in the Realm of Life and Death.

"Oh?"

Chu Fengmian hadn’t expected that his words would actually awaken Bai Xuan, but then again, Bai Xuan’s innate talent was exceptional indeed.

And now, having encountered numerous strange fortunes within the Ancient Dragon Emperor’s cavern, it seemed normal for her to have made a breakthrough.

"Someone’s coming, Chu Young Master, please prepare the Spirit Stones."

Elder Li suddenly spoke up, reminding him from one side.

The door to private room number eleven suddenly opened, and a young woman walked in, holding a jade box in her hands.

"Elder Li? I didn’t expect that it was you who won the bid for this Jianmu tree branch?"

The young woman pushed open the door and, seeing Elder Li, her face revealed a hint of surprise.

"Miss Luo Xi, this Jianmu tree branch wasn’t won by this old man, I don’t have the wherewithal for such a grand gesture."

Elder Li chuckled, then pointed at Chu Fengmian and said,

"This auction, this old man is merely accompanying someone."

"Oh?"

Luo Xi followed Elder Li’s gesture and looked towards Chu Fengmian. Giving such an unfamiliar face a quick once-over, she suddenly spoke up.

"Are you Chu Young Master? The one who defeated Hong Yu?"

"Truly, Tongtian Pavilion has the ability to reach heaven, to have known about it so quickly."

Chu Fengmian felt a subtle astonishment in his heart, then responded with a smile.

"Indeed, it is I."

"Chu Young Master is now the first notable figure in the Void Sea; how could a little girl like me not know?"

Luo Xi chuckled softly, her smile bewitchingly charming, making anyone who saw it potentially lost within it, especially any martial artist of weak determination, who would likely be directly entranced.

However, Chu Fengmian’s will was firm, and he wasn’t swayed in the least, though he did note Luo Xi was indeed a very beautiful woman, who might not be inferior in appearance to Han Yueli.

But unlike Han Yueli’s frigid demeanor, every move Luo Xi made seemed to draw people in, making them more likely to lose themselves.

"You jest, Miss Luo Xi. Here are seven million Spirit Stones, please count them."

Chu Fengmian didn’t continue with Luo Xi’s words. With a grand flourish of his hand, a sphere of king-grade Spirit Stones appeared in his palm, exactly the value of seven million Spirit Stones.

"King-grade Spirit Stones!"

Seeing the king-grade Spirit Stones Chu Fengmian had brought out, Luo Xi was startled.

That was quite a lavish expense, for even in the Void Sea, it was rare for even the wealthiest individuals to use king-grade Spirit Stones for transactions.

What surprised Luo Xi even more was that Chu Fengmian was utterly unaffected by her charm.

Watching Chu Fengmian recover so quickly, Luo Xi’s eyes showed a trace of something unusual but she quickly responded, saying,

"Chu Young Master is indeed wealthy. The Jianmu tree branch is contained in this jade box."

Luo Xi presented the jade box, which housed the Jianmu tree branch.

"That’s correct."

Chu Fengmian nodded in acknowledgment.

Such abundant vitality could only come from a Jianmu tree branch.

"Good, if there’s nothing else, I shall take my leave."

Luo Xi spoke, then her figure shifted and she vanished from the room.

"The Bewitching Technique of the Charming Demon Sect from the Six Demon Gates, interesting. People from the Six Demon Gates still survive."

Chu Fengmian watched Luo Xi’s retreating figure and thought contemplatively.
