The outer layer of the armor was cracking, and dazzling light was reflected in the cracks.
Crack crack crack —
The cracking sounds became more and more frequent, until finally, the outer layer of the armor completely fell off, revealing the true appearance of the armor.
Strictly speaking, this was not hard armor, but soft armor. It was just that the outer layer of the armor was wrapped in a layer of darkness, making it look like hard armor.
This was a bright silver soft armor. The surface of the soft armor was engraved with several lively swimming dragons. As the light flickered, it was as if one could really see them swimming.
With the appearance of this soft armor, the entire auction hall was filled with the might of dragons. Some of the participants with slightly lower cultivation realms were already trembling when they sensed this pressure. Some of them even turned their heads and rushed out of the hall in fear.
However, the vast majority of people remained where they were. After all, most of the people who were able to come here were not ordinary people. They were all the cream of the crop among the younger generation.
“This thing is actually so extraordinary!”
“Sigh, I really made a mistake this time…”
“This time, Gu Xi has picked up a treasure.”
Numerous gazes gathered on the soft armor in Gu Xi’s hands. Many people sighed with emotion. They regretted that they had not discovered the clues earlier.
At the very least, they might still have a sliver of a chance to compete.
On the other hand, Wang Zhan’s face was green, as if he was sick.
......
He was unwilling, and could not believe it.
Such a peerless treasure had slipped away from his hands just like that!
If he had raised the price again just now, perhaps this soft armor would belong to him!
What was even more unacceptable to him was that this item had fallen into the hands of his sworn enemy, Gu Xi!
“Although I spent more than 10,000 points, I think it was worth it.”
Gu Xi waved the soft armor in his hand at Wang Zhan, and then he put it on his body on the spot. This made Wang Zhan gnash his teeth in hatred. He wanted nothing more than to rip off Gu Xi’s skin and pull out his tendons and lay him down here.
However, no matter how furious he was in his heart, Wang Zhan still forcefully suppressed it. His expression gradually returned to its usual calm as he smiled coldly. “Don’t be too complacent. It’s just that you’re a little lucky this time.”
“So what if you have another soft armor? You won’t be able to walk out of this place in the end.”
Wang Zhan turned around and left as his voice sounded from afar.
“What a stubborn duck.” Gu Xi curled his lips in disdain before sitting down again.
If not for the rules of the competition, with Gu Xi’s current strength, he would have killed Wang Zhan with a single slap. There was no need for Gu Xi to talk so much nonsense with him.
As soon as he sat down, Su Lian, who was at the side, said with a smile, “Young Master Gu, you have good eyesight. I was not able to discern the value of this armor. I admire you.”
“I was just lucky,” Gu Xi said faintly and did not intend to explain further.
Seeing that Gu Xi was not willing to say more, Su Lian tactfully did not ask further.
After this small interlude, everyone quickly threw this matter to the back of their minds. Even though some people could not help but secretly plot against Gu Xi, however, after looking at the group of people from the Liuli Sect, they dispelled their thoughts.
They did not know Gu Xi, so they were not afraid. However, with the Liuli Sect around, they did not dare to do so.
The following auction items were still dazzling. All kinds of Cultivation Methods and spirit tools were endless. There were even spirit herbs that were thousands of years old. However, none of these had aroused Gu Xi’s interest. Moreover, he no longer had any points to squander.
The people from the Liuli Sect also did not buy any items. For them, some items were indeed very rare. However, compared to the champion title of the Spirit-chasing Competition, they still resolutely chose the latter.
The auction was still in full swing. The atmosphere in the auction hall became more and more enthusiastic. At a certain moment, all of this came to an abrupt end.
The entire hall began to shake violently, and many people who were caught off guard staggered and fell to the ground. The spiritual energy in the world seemed to become more and more abundant, but at the same time, it also became more and more unstable.
“What’s going on? Is there an earthquake?”
A woman from the Liuli Sect suddenly stood up with an anxious look on her face.
“It’s not an earthquake.” The woman in white slowly stood up and looked in a certain direction. She could feel that that was the source of everything. “The Secret Realm is about to appear.”
A short sentence instantly spread throughout the entire hall.
“The Secret Realm is about to materialize. Let’s go!”
“Damn it, we can’t let the others have their way. Let’s go as well!”
“First come, first served, everyone. F*ck, wait for me!”
Many people reacted and rushed out of the hall. They used their movement techniques and spirit skills to rush toward the source of the fluctuation.
“Let’s go too.” The woman in white glanced at Gu Xi and left first. Su Lian and the rest of the people from the glazed tile sect also hurried to follow.
Gu Xi stood up and followed.
Although he and the Liuli Sect were now in a cooperative relationship in name, this was just an excuse.
If something really happened, they would probably run away faster than anyone else.
No matter what, it was best to be careful and keep a distance.
After leaving the auction house, Gu Xi glanced around the small town. The originally crowded streets were now extremely deserted.
Apparently, those people had been eager to reappear at the location of the Secret Realm.
However, was it really that easy to enter a Secret Realm that had been passed down since ancient times?
Gu Xi was not sure, but he knew that things were definitely not as simple as he had imagined.
The group passed through the streets and courtyards and soon left the small town. The location of the fluctuation was not too far from the small town. In less than the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, they had successfully arrived at their destination.
They were in the middle of a huge forest. Not far in front of them stood a mountain peak that went straight into the clouds. The mountain was steep and steep. Due to the previous tremor, a lot of falling rocks had piled up at the foot of the mountain.
More importantly, a towering stone door was revealed from the mountain under the tremor. There were two ferocious-looking monsters carved on the stone door. Even though they were carved out, their pupils were vivid, no one dared to look into their eyes.
There were already a large number of participants gathered around. Gu Xi roughly scanned the surroundings and saw the Hehuan Sect, Vast Expanse Sword Domain, Raging Fire Valley, Star Pavilion, and other powerful sects. Both Wang Zhan and Li Du were also there.
It could even be said that more than half of the top ten in this Spirit-chasing Competition had come.
This trip to the Secret Realm would definitely be a fierce battle!
