The Supreme Being Against Heaven
Chapter Summary
Today is no exception.” As his voice fell, amid the excitement of the disciples, Tantai Zhongde waved his sleeve—instantly, 1,000 bottles of pills appeared on the auction platform before him. Tantai Zhongde smiled kindly and said in a clear voice: “These 1,000 bottles are all top-grade ‘Spirit Embryo Pills,’ each bottle containing 9 pills, sold at only 70% of the in-sect retail price. His clear voice echoed throughout Huangfu Shengxing: “Some honored guests may already recognize this as ‘Extrate...
Tantai Zhongde raised his hand and gestured for silence. He swept his gaze across the hundreds of thousands of disciples in the first-floor hall and spoke in a gentle tone:
“Children, don’t be impatient. In the past, every auction included the sale of medicinal pills specifically for cultivators in the Spirit Embryo Realm. Today is no exception.”
As his voice fell, amid the excitement of the disciples, Tantai Zhongde waved his sleeve—instantly, 1,000 bottles of pills appeared on the auction platform before him.
In an instant, the disciples’ eyes glowed green, like starving wolves.
Tantai Zhongde smiled kindly and said in a clear voice:
“These 1,000 bottles are all top-grade ‘Spirit Embryo Pills,’ each bottle containing 9 pills, sold at only 70% of the in-sect retail price. One bottle of the low-grade equivalent is priced at 30,000,000 spirit stones.”
“Limit: 1 bottle per person. Those who want them, come up and line up to pay!”
As soon as he finished speaking, thousands of disciples leaped into the air, their figures flickering at low altitude as they rushed toward the auction platform, quickly suppressing their excitement and forming a line!
Unfortunately—only the first 1,000 people successfully purchased the top-grade Spirit Embryo Pills.
At that moment, behind the partition, an endless killing intent flashed in Tan Yun’s eyes as he stared at a pair of male and female disciples on the auction platform!
They were none other than—
The woman: Lin Xinyi, the disciple who had once deceived Tan Yun into going 600 li away from the Alchemy Line’s gate, claiming that Mu Mengyi had been captured!
The man: Fan Jian, a powerhouse ranked in the Hidden Dragon List, who had used an invisibility talisman to ambush him on the mountain!
The memory of being ambushed and severely injured by the two from the Beast Soul Line resurfaced—he had barely survived and escaped back to the sect!
Tan Yun’s fists clenched tightly, cracking audibly.
“After the auction, I will make sure the two of you die without a burial place!”
At the same time, the 1,000 disciples who obtained the pills jumped off the platform with excited expressions.
With just 1 bottle, one could break through realms faster—even if not used personally, it could be given to a cultivation partner or resold for massive profit!
As the 1,000 people merged back into the crowd, other disciples rushed toward them, hoping to befriend them and purchase the pills.
“Silence.”
Tantai Zhongde raised his hand again, then smiled and said:
“Honored guests, I am deeply grateful that you have taken the time to come to Huangfu Shengxing.”
“The auction is about to enter its final stage, and I am confident that the final treasure you have all been waiting for will not disappoint.”
His smile slowly faded, his expression turning solemn. Then his Qiankun Ring flashed—a dark purple stone the size of a human head appeared on the auction platform.
Inside VIP Room No. 3, Tan Yun abruptly stood up from his jade chair, staring fixedly at the purple stone. His star-like eyes revealed undisguised excitement.
“Extraterrestrial Purple Meteorite Iron!”
At the same time, countless gazes from the VIP rooms on the 7th floor shot toward the stone as if tangible—clearly, they recognized it just like Tan Yun!
Sensing the intense attention, Tantai Zhongde smiled. His clear voice echoed throughout Huangfu Shengxing:
“Some honored guests may already recognize this as ‘Extraterrestrial Purple Meteorite Iron,’ renowned for its indestructible strength!”
“But for those who do not understand its value, I will explain it simply.”
“In this world, there are 6 types of extraterrestrial materials, collectively known as the ‘6 Great Meteorite Materials,’ namely:
Extraterrestrial Refined Gold Iron,
Extraterrestrial Cold Meteorite Iron,
Black Meteorite Iron,
Mystic Meteorite Iron,
and—the Extraterrestrial Purple Meteorite Iron before you!”
“These 6 types of ores have drifted through the vast universe for tens of billions of years before falling onto the Heavenly Punishment Continent.”
“Because of their extraordinary strength, they are known as the ‘foundation of weapon refining.’”
“As you all know—above Spirit Weapons are Treasure Weapons, above Treasure Weapons are Semi-Saint Weapons, and Saint Weapons…”
“This piece of Extraterrestrial Purple Meteorite Iron, if handled by a Grandmaster-level weapon refiner, can be forged into a ‘sword prototype’ of Semi-Grandmaster or even Grandmaster level!”
“Of course, if you possess it and invite a Divine Weapon Refiner, it can even be elevated into a Semi-Divine or Divine sword prototype!”
“Once forged into a sword prototype, it can then be refined into a complete flying sword according to the user’s desired elemental attributes.”
“Moreover, it is also a primary material for refining many magical treasures. It is no exaggeration to say—its value is immeasurable!”
Tantai Zhongde’s expression turned serious.
“I will wait and see who will ultimately obtain this ‘Extraterrestrial Purple Meteorite Iron’!”
“Starting price: 10,000,000,000 low-grade spirit stones. Each bid increase must be no less than 1,000,000,000!”
“The same rules apply—anyone who bids recklessly but cannot pay with spirit stones or assets in the end, regardless of status, will not be spared by Huangfu Shengxing!”
“Now—the auction for the Extraterrestrial Purple Meteorite Iron begins!”
“GONG—!” ?
The moment the bell rang, bidding voices thundered from the VIP rooms on the 6th and 7th floors:
“13,000,000,000!”
“15,000,000,000!”
“200,000,000,000!”
“206,000,000,000!”
“306,000,000,000!”
Hearing this, Tan Yun rubbed his Qiankun Ring, which contained assets worth 42,000,000,000, and spoke in an aged voice:
“100,000,000,000!”
“Whoosh—!”
The instant his voice rang out, hundreds of thousands of disciples turned toward VIP Room No. 3, gasping sharply!
From just over 30,000,000,000, it jumped straight to 100,000,000,000 in a single bid!
The entire Huangfu Shengxing fell into momentary silence—even the elders bidding on the 6th and 7th floors paused!
Tan Yun knew well—the value of the Extraterrestrial Purple Meteorite Iron was certainly far beyond 100,000,000,000!
And he knew even more clearly—these elders were no ordinary figures; they all understood its value just as well!
What he wanted was simple—end this quickly!
Seize the Extraterrestrial Purple Meteorite Iron—kill the adulterous pair from the Beast Soul Line—and return to the Alchemy Line to let the Primordial Ice Flame devour the Purple Sea Profound Flame!
“Hahaha… Fellow Daoist in VIP Room No. 3 is truly generous. In that case, this chief will join the fun with you.”
An old voice sounded from VIP Room No. 2 on the 7th floor:
“120,000,000,000!”
The moment he heard it, hatred flashed in Tan Yun’s eyes—he would never forget this voice, even in death!
The owner of this voice—was the great-grandfather of Linghu Changkong, the Chief of the Holy Soul Line—the Holy Soul Daoist!
During the outer disciple selection, if he hadn’t used the sect rules as protection, he would have been crushed to death by the opponent’s spiritual energy palm long ago!
And if he hadn’t escaped that day using the damaged top-grade spirit boat at the Alchemy Line gate, he would have already been surrounded and killed by the 48 Soul Refinement Realm disciples sent by the other party!
“Holy Soul Daoist, stop flattering yourself. Since when were you my fellow Daoist? What a joke!”
Tan Yun sneered.
“200,000,000,000!”
“Ingrate!” the Holy Soul Daoist said in a deep voice.
“220,000,000,000!”
“250,000,000,000!”
At that moment, inside VIP Room No. 4, Murong Daozhe’s eyes were resolute. This time, no matter what, she had to obtain the Extraterrestrial Purple Meteorite Iron!
As the chief disciple of the weapon-refining line of the inner sect—how could she let such a precious treasure slip away!
If it were snatched away in front of everyone in the inner sect’s auction hall today—
Where would she put her face?
This matter would undoubtedly become a laughingstock among the 9 great lines of the inner sect!
