Chapter 567 Auction House Dispute



Chapter 567 Auction House Dispute

In the bustling center of the East Region, a magnificent auction house lies dormant like a giant beast. Its towering eaves seem to pierce the sky, and the golden signboard shines brightly in the sunlight, indicating that this place is home to all the world's treasures. Today, the auction house is bustling with people, and various forces are flocking in with ambitions and desires, all because the rumored finale item - a breathing bronze compass, is about to appear here.

The moment Yun Yao and Chu Mochen stepped into the auction house, it was as if they had stepped into a world of undercurrents. The eyes around them were like torches, some were probing, some were greedy, and some were vigilant, scanning them back and forth. Yun Yao had a stern expression, and her white clothes were whiter than snow, and her fluttering sleeves seemed to carry a sense of transcendence. Only the fingers that were tightly grasping the hilt of the sword were slightly white, revealing her inner tension. Chu Mochen's posture was as straight as a pine tree, his black robe rustled, his deep eyes were like cold stars, and he protected Yun Yao behind him without making a sound, and the sword energy emanating from his body made others dare not approach easily.

As soon as she landed, Yun Yao sensed a strange wave, and then the system vibrated wildly in her sea of consciousness, emitting a strong resonance, and the frequency seemed to echo something deep in her soul. Her heart moved, and her eyes swept across the stage like lightning. She knew without even looking at the item covered with layers of brocade that it must be the third quantum core.

At the beginning of the auction, the atmosphere was instantly ignited. Representatives of various forces were eager to give it a try, and the bidding was rising and falling like a surging wave. The remnants of the Blood Evil Sect disguised themselves as wealthy businessmen and hid in the crowd. They were dressed in gorgeous brocade robes, wearing jade crowns on their heads, and opening and closing folding fans in their hands, but their eyes always swept towards the stage sinisterly. Occasionally, when they looked at each other, the blood and hostility in their eyes flashed. The special envoy of the Heavenly Sword Sect was even more arrogant. The dark pattern embroidered on his cuffs was the same as that of the elder of the Blood Evil Sect - the symbol of the "Fallen Heaven Religion" that had long been destroyed, like a secret signal, conveying an unknown conspiracy in this hustle and bustle. Every time they raised the price, they were determined to win, and their voices echoed in the auction house, like a clarion call of war.

The price soared all the way, like an out-of-control kite soaring into the sky, and in a blink of an eye it had exceeded 50,000 medium-grade spirit stones. At this moment, the atmosphere in the auction hall became increasingly heated, as if the air could be ignited. Everyone's eyes became more and more fanatical, and the bidding became more and more urgent, as if their minds were blinded by desire and they completely ignored the price.

Yun Yao watched the crazy bidding with a cold look. When the price soared to 100,000 medium-grade spirit stones, she moved lightly and stood up suddenly. In an instant, the eyes of the whole audience seemed to be pulled by an invisible force and gathered on her. In the astonished eyes of the crowd, she slowly raised her mother's jade pendant. The jade pendant was as warm as water, emitting a soft halo, as if it carried endless years. At the moment when the jade pendant appeared, a strange thing happened - her reflection appeared on the surface of the compass, as if there was some kind of mysterious bond between the compass and her, transcending time and space, and recognizing each other at this moment.

The auctioneer's face changed drastically, as if he had seen a ghost. His originally calm face was instantly distorted, and his eyes were full of fear and panic. Beads of sweat rolled down his forehead, and he fumbled around in a panic. Then, the prohibition in the auction house suddenly started. In an instant, light shone, and runes intertwined in the air, like an invisible net, covering the entire auction house.

"So you are the 'World Anchor' wanted by the Administration. No one will get out alive today!" the auctioneer roared, his voice became sharp and piercing due to fear, echoing in this enclosed space like a declaration of death.

For a moment, the auction house was in turmoil, and panic spread like a plague. People were panicking, some fled in all directions, but were hit by the restrictions and had their heads broken and bleeding; some drew their swords, their eyes full of despair and madness, trying to find a glimmer of hope in the desperate situation. Shouting, cursing, and the sound of weapons clashing intertwined, creating chaos.

Chu Mochen's eyes shone, and he snorted coldly. The quantum sword in his hand was unsheathed with a clang. The sound of the sword resounded throughout the venue, like a sharp light of judgment. His figure flashed, and he rushed towards the restriction like a ghost, and the sword moved with him. In an instant, the sword energy was crisscrossed, like a silver dragon out of the sea. Wherever he went, the rune restriction was forcibly split open.

Yun Yao took the opportunity to inject her spiritual consciousness into the compass. In an instant, her data spiritual root resonated strongly with the bronze compass. A huge torrent of data poured out of her body, like a galaxy pouring back into the compass. Then, the sky above the auction house suddenly changed, and the second level of the sword domain - the "Cause and Effect Sword Domain" was launched.

In this sword domain, strange scenes emerged one after another. Those who had ill intentions towards Yun Yao, their weapons seemed to be controlled by a mysterious force, and instantly twisted and deformed. The disciples of the Blood Evil Sect were horrified to find that their steel knives had turned into the hand bones of the infant corpse. The pale bones exuded waves of coldness, as if carrying endless resentment; the sword of the special envoy of the Heavenly Sword Sect reflected the wronged souls of his fellow disciples who were silenced by him. The gruesome faces were looming on the sword, and the screams seemed to tear the eardrums. They widened their eyes in horror, their hands and feet were numb, as if all their strength had been drained away, and they could no longer hold the weapons in their hands, and they fell to the ground with a clang.

Xiao Cui took advantage of the chaos, her eyes were like torches, her fingers were flying, dancing quickly in the air, streams of data flowed out from her fingertips, like a flexible silk thread, quickly cracking the auction house's defense system. With a crisp hum, a stream of light flew out from the core of the compass, like a ray of hope, and instantly merged into Yun Yao's mark. Yun Yao only felt the Nascent Soul in her body shaking violently, and above her head, the data spiritual root actually condensed into a substantial "code pattern", exuding a mysterious and powerful aura.

However, the crisis has not been resolved. At the edge of the sword domain, the most dangerous enemy quietly appeared - three space-time hunters wearing silver mechas. They were like messengers from hell, exuding a cold and dead aura, and their weapons flashed with cold light, which could directly attack the soul. They were the executioners who hunted down Yun Yao's mother. One of them had the number "79" engraved on his mecha, like a striking curse, which was the number of the system that collapsed before, as if the reincarnation of fate had come again at this moment.

"Yun Yao, your mother stole the core components, causing the collapse of the three thousand small worlds. Now you should pay for it!" The hunter roared, his voice like thunder, with endless anger and hatred, echoing in the sword domain. After that, they launched an attack, and the energy beams ejected from the weapons seemed like a sharp blade that could tear through time and space, with the momentum of destroying the world, fiercely bombarding Yun Yao and Chu Mochen.

Chu Mochen's eyes condensed, and the sword domain shone brightly, trying his best to resist this fatal blow. But the attack of the space-time hunter was too fierce, and cracks appeared in the sword domain, like broken glass, crumbling.

Yun Yao seemed unaffected. Her eyes were deep, as if she had penetrated the mist of time and space. She suddenly remembered a sentence in the jade slip left by her mother: "When technology and cultivation resonate, the rules of the world will be rewritten by you." She seemed to be inspired by something, opened her arms, and let the data patterns and the spiritual power in her body merge crazily. In an instant, the space of the auction house seemed to be distorted by a mysterious force, and began to pixelate, as if it had turned into an illusory digital world.

In this pixelated space, Yun Yao seemed to be the absolute master, controlling all the rules. The space-time hunters were horrified to find that their mechas seemed to be stuck in a quagmire, and their movements became increasingly slow. What frightened them even more was that their attack codes were reverse compiled, and the originally deadly energy beams turned into healing energy, like a gentle spring breeze, caressing Yun Yao and Chu Mochen.

"It turns out that your 'laws of time and space' are nothing but codes of a higher dimension." Yun Yao's voice seemed to come from the sky, carrying the majesty of a creator god, echoing in this illusory space, "In the name of the world anchor point, I will rewrite your program - from now on, you must not harm any life that resonates with my soul."

As Yun Yao finished her words, the Spacetime Hunter's mecha seemed to have its soul sucked out, and it instantly shut down, transforming into three silver medals that fell powerlessly into her palm like defeated flags.

Chu Mochen looked at the twinkling stars in Yun Yao's hair, as if he saw the vastness and mystery of the universe. He was filled with emotion, and finally understood why he felt that she had the entire universe in her eyes when he first met her, as if she had hidden endless possibilities and hopes. At this moment, in the chaos and noise of the auction house, they stood side by side, as if they had become the most powerful force in the world, making everyone in awe.

But Yun Yao knew that this crisis was just the tip of the iceberg, and greater challenges were still to come. She held Chu Mochen's hand tightly, and looked into the distance with a firm gaze, as if she had penetrated the wall of the auction house and saw the conspiracy and crisis hidden in the depths of darkness. They must gather all the quantum cores as soon as possible and repair the space-time channel, otherwise, not only the two of them, but the entire world will face a catastrophe. And this auction house dispute is just a thrilling episode in this grand adventure. The road ahead is still very long...
