Chapter 2111: Chapter 2111: Crushing the Shenque City Young City Lord
"Congratulations to the Shenque City Young City Lord, for successfully auctioning the Annihilation Dao Venerable’s token at a high price of seven billion. Please complete the transaction on-site after the auction,"
Longxue Ying announced loudly.
These words infuriated the Shenque City Young City Lord, his face twisted with anger. He tightly squeezed Miaoyin Fairy beside him, causing her to wince and quickly break free.
"What are you doing?" Miaoyin Fairy snorted coldly.
"Beauty, I got carried away," the Shenque City Young City Lord quickly apologized in a low voice, his hatred towards Ye Feng escalating further, his face full of rage.
The auction continued afterward.
The most famous item in this auction was the token of the Annihilation Dao Venerable. Although the following hundred auction items were also remarkable, with starting bids all exceeding a billion, attracting many strong bidders—their popularity did not compare to when Ye Feng and Shenque City Young City Lord were bidding for the Annihilation Dao Venerable’s token.
"A certain Dao Monarch’s Divine Weapon, though just a ruined mirror, it can unleash power beyond High Order Heavenly Monarch Divine Weapons, suitable for cultivators practicing light laws. Starting bid at five billion Origin Stones."
Longxue Ying pointed at a golden broken mirror.
"Damn, that was my former Life-bound Divine Weapon, it got shattered. I didn’t expect to see its fragments still," Radiant Daoist quickly transmitted a message to Ye Feng.
"Hmm, I’ll have Lin Daotong bid for it," Ye Feng nodded, replying with a transmitted message.
"This thing is too expensive. Do you really have that much liquid capital? If I bid and you can’t pay, I’ll lose face!"
Lin Daotong replied with a bitter face.
"I’ll give you ten million in labor fees!" Ye Feng directly threw out a proverbial trump card.
"Alright, I’ll bid for you!" Lin Daotong licked his lips. Just shouting out the price for Ye Feng, he could earn a reward of ten million, making it highly profitable.
"Five billion and ten million!"
Before Lin Daotong could bid, someone else had already bid. It was a Peak Nine-Turn Heavenly Venerable, also practicing the laws of light, naturally fancying this item."
"Five billion and fifty million!" Lin Daotong increased the bid.
"Come on!" Ye Feng’s mouth twitched, "Lin Dao friend, don’t increase it by so much at once! It’s not your money, so you don’t feel the pain, do you?"
"Don’t panic, you have the money anyway," Lin Daotong chuckled, continuing to bid.
Upon hearing this, Ye Feng felt quite speechless.
Fortunately, there weren’t many people bidding for the mirror fragments. When the price was pushed to eight billion Origin Stones, Lin Daotong finally claimed it, allowing Ye Feng to breathe a sigh of relief.
"Great! Once I get the Life-bound Divine Weapon and find other materials, I can reforge it, greatly enhancing my combat power, soon becoming a top hand among Dao Monarch Peaks."
Radiant Daoist grew even more excited.
"Dragon Pattern Sword, a top-tier Heavenly Venerable Divine Weapon forged by a master swordsmith, suitable for Sword Dao cultivators, can unleash fierce Sword Qi. Starting bid at ten billion Origin Stones!"
"Black Tortoise Divine Armor, top-tier defensive Heavenly Venerable Divine Weapon that can resist attacks from High Order Heavenly Monarchs without breaking, starting bid at twelve billion Origin Stones!"
"A bottle of Dao Source Liquid..."
The auction continued. The remaining hundred auction items were all excellent, none starting below a billion Origin Stones. Towards the end, starting bids even reached ten billion Origin Stones, comparable to the Annihilation Dao Venerable’s token.
The last ten items were Dao Monarch-level treasures.
"Fifteen billion!"
"Sixteen billion!"
The final ten items were almost exclusively bid on by those Peak Nine-Turn Heavenly Venerables, each with a Dao Monarch backing them, and abundant financial resources.
"Twenty billion!"
The Shenque City Young City Lord also placed a bid, purchasing a Dao Monarch-level heart-protecting mirror, with which even early-stage Dao Monarchs would struggle to instantly kill him.
Within the Heavenly Venerable Realm, he was almost invincible.
"This guy, really has money." Ye Feng couldn’t help but exclaim. Seventy billion for the Annihilation Dao Venerable’s token, twenty billion for the Dao Monarch-level heart-protecting mirror, plus miscellaneous items, the opponent spent a total of a hundred billion at this event.
It must be said, this person is extraordinarily wealthy!
"I need to find a chance to venture into the Blood Sea again to find treasures, hopefully, empty the Blood Moon Clan’s reserves of Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures and Origin Stones, earning a hundred billion Origin Stones."
Ye Feng stroked his chin, speaking thus.
Blood Sea.
On an island.
"Damn it, who is the bastard that stole this Dao Monarch’s treasury of Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures, I’ll kill you!"
Blood Robe Dao Monarch roared to the sky.
This made Ye Feng sneeze but he couldn’t be bothered to pay attention, continuing to observe the auction.
Soon, the auction concluded.
Eight hundred auction items, all sold, everyone began sorting the transactions according to auction order. Lin Daotong quickly winked at Ye Feng, who discreetly transferred over ten billion Origin Stones to the former, including a ten million labor fee.
"Haha, what a profit!"
Lin Daotong gleefully completed the transaction, handing Radiant Daoist’s Life-bound Divine Weapon fragments and the Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures commissioned by Ye Feng to him.
"Thanks!"
Ye Feng took the Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures, first storing them in the Three Realms Universe, then handing the mirror fragments to Radiant Daoist.
"Finally back!" Stroking the fragments of his Life-bound Divine Weapon, Radiant Daoist felt deeply emotional, preparing to gather more materials to repair and nurture it stronger.
"Let’s go!"
Once everyone finished the transaction, they left the venue, ready to continue exploring other areas.
"Ye Feng, come out!"
After completing the transaction, the Shenque City Young City Lord walked out of the venue, immediately unleashing a powerful cultivation aura, howling towards Ye Feng in the distance.
This roar instantly drew everyone’s attention.
"What, really want to battle?" Ye Feng looked at the Shenque City Young City Lord, unafraid.
At the same rank, he was invincible!
"Don’t tell me you, coward, don’t dare?" The Shenque City Young City Lord was very domineering and aggressive.
"In a battle of equal rank, you don’t even qualify to make me draw my sword; a single finger is enough to suppress you on the spot. Do you really think I’m afraid of you? I simply don’t want to waste time on you."
Ye Feng laughed heartily.
The crowd, upon hearing this, gave thumbs up, feeling that Ye Feng was bragging, but admired his courage for daring to speak to the Shenque City Young City Lord this way.
"A big bragging skill, I really want to fight you at the same rank, see if your skills can match even a tenth of your mouth."
The Shenque City Young City Lord leaped.
Thump!
He was already standing on a platform, the top genius challenge platform of the event, strengthened by Dao Monarch overlords, able to accommodate competitions among Heavenly Dao Realm geniuses.
"A battle of equal rank, I’m not afraid of you!"
Ye Feng leaped, likewise landing on the platform, facing the Shenque City Young City Lord across space.
"Both of you, at what cultivation level would you like to fight?"
An elderly man stepped out, emanating the thick aura of a Peak Nine-Turn Heavenly Venerable, holding a golden token that can adjust the platform formation and suppress cultivators within its range to the same cultivation level.
"Five-turn Heavenly Venerable, after all, I don’t want to take advantage of this coward," the Shenque City Young City Lord pointed at Ye Feng.
Currently, Ye Feng always simulates the aura of a Five-turn Heavenly Venerable, even Dao Monarchs perceive him only as a Five-turn Heavenly Venerable, without discerning that he is a cultivator of the Internal Universe System, very well hidden.
"What do you think?" The elder looked at Ye Feng, needing to get both parties’ consent.
"No problem," Ye Feng nodded.
"Alright, then I’ll set the platform formation to suppress to a Five-turn Heavenly Venerable cultivation level maximum," the elder activated the formation, a hemispherical light screen enveloping the platform, internally exerting pressure to suppress the Shenque City Young City Lord’s cultivation to the level of a Five-turn Heavenly Venerable, unable to break through.
As for Ye Feng, he wasn’t suppressed at all.
He simply wasn’t a Five-turn Heavenly Venerable, but a Quasi-Heavenly Venerable, the suppression of cultivation having absolutely no effect on him, he could exert full force as usual.
"Hahaha, you’re finished!"
The Shenque City Young City Lord sneered, thinking that in a battle of the same rank, he could overpower Ye Feng.
Ye Feng, on the other hand, was very calm.
He did not draw his sword; his left hand was relaxed behind his back, and his right hand slowly raised, pointing his index finger towards the Shenque City Young City Lord.
"Look, there’s a good show to watch."
"It’s the Shenque City Young City Lord against Ye Feng. My goodness, those are two top-notch prodigies. I heard Ye Feng’s Sword Dao realm is very high; people call him ’Feng Ye Sword Venerable’, and some have even written poems for him."
"However, the Shenque City Young City Lord seems to be more formidable, right? After all, he has the guidance of the Dao Venerable Patriarch."
"The Shenque City Young City Lord has a greater chance of winning."
"No, Feng Ye Sword Venerable has a greater chance of winning."
The crowd began to argue.
In the arena.
Ye Feng looked at the Shenque City Young City Lord: "If you don’t make a move now, you won’t have the opportunity to."
"You insolent brat, so arrogant!" The Shenque City Young City Lord formed seals with both hands, and behind him, Dao Patterns of Laws emerged, in the blink of an eye evolving into an ancient divine city, within which countless Heavenly Soldiers and Generals, wielding Divine Weapons, charged at Ye Feng.
"I said, I would suppress you with one finger."
Ye Feng’s extended right hand began to exert force, and an intense pressure blossomed at his fingertip, effortlessly crushing the Heavenly Soldiers and Generals released by the Shenque City Young City Lord.
"How is this possible?"
The Shenque City Young City Lord’s eyes widened. This was a Divine Skill "Divine City" created by the Dao Venerable Patriarch, a mass-killing type of Divine Skill that could sweep through those of the same rank.
Yet, it was crushed by Ye Feng with just one finger.
"You are too weak."
Ye Feng shook his head, his finger exerting force, condensing an enormous Dharma Aspect of his finger, and with a "click," it pierced through the divine city condensed by the Shenque City Young City Lord, sending him flying.
"Impossible, absolutely impossible!"
The Shenque City Young City Lord exclaimed, not believing that his powerful Divine Skill would be shattered by Ye Feng with just one finger.
"Nothing is impossible." Ye Feng continued to move, pressing down gently with one finger, pinning the Shenque City Young City Lord to the ground, immobilizing him.
"Ahhhh... let me go!"
The Shenque City Young City Lord struggled frantically but couldn’t get up, pressed down firmly.
The audience was all dumbfounded.
"Is this really a battle of the same rank?"
"Why does it feel like a Six-Turn Heavenly Venerable is bullying a Five-Turn Heavenly Venerable? This gap feels more than tenfold."
"Truly unbelievable."
Everyone’s expression drastically changed, looking at the old man presiding over the formation, who hurriedly raised a token, indicating that he had already activated the formation and that both sides’ cultivations were definitely suppressed to the Five-Turn Heavenly Venerable level.
"There’s nothing wrong with the formation; this is our True Dragon Commerce Association’s formation, it can’t go wrong."
The old man said loudly.
"There’s nothing wrong with the formation, so how is Ye Feng crushing the Shenque City Young City Lord at the same rank?"
Everyone was dumbfounded.
"You’re cheating!" The Shenque City Young City Lord shouted, feeling he was tricked by Ye Feng.
"There’s nothing wrong with the formation; Ye Feng couldn’t possibly be cheating." The old man presiding over the formation said, delivering a harsh blow to the Shenque City Young City Lord.
"Impossible!" The Shenque City Young City Lord felt his reputation shattered, "I possess combat power tens of times greater than an Ordinary Invincible Supreme Venerable; in a same-rank battle, how could anyone suppress me this badly? Being able to win against me is impressive enough! This gap you say is tenfold is an understatement!"
Upon hearing this, everyone looked at Ye Feng.
Could it be that his combat power broke the ninety-nine-fold limit of heaven and earth? But that was even more impossible, as the probability of breaking the combat limit was lower than advancing to Boundless Venerable, and no one believed it.
"Could it be... Ye Feng really broke the combat power limit and will become the sixth pinnacle existence to rival those five great beings in the future?"
Someone exclaimed in shock.
"Hiss!"
Everyone was astonished.
Those five great pinnacle existences were naturally the Invincible Old Man overseeing the Cosmic Sea and the other four super beings surpassing the Boundless Venerable.
These five were the true pinnacle of the Origin of All Things, unattainable by anyone else. Unless someone could transcend this heaven and earth.
But how difficult was that?
Even those five couldn’t do it; at best, they could be on par with the will of this heaven and earth.
"Do you admit defeat?"
Ye Feng crushed the Shenque City Young City Lord with his finger as if squashing an ant. Thanks to the armor’s protection, the Shenque City Young City Lord wasn’t injured, but his dignity was ruthlessly trampled, even damaging his Dao Heart.
If he couldn’t overcome the Heart Demon, he was doomed.
Don’t even mention Dao Venerable, even breaking through to Dao Monarch would be an insurmountable obstacle, stuck at the peak of the Nine-Turn Heavenly Venerable.
"Ye Feng, stop!" Miaoyin Fairy couldn’t bear it anymore, as the Shenque City Young City Lord was her man in private; how could she allow Ye Feng to insult him like this?
"This is a spar between the Shenque City Young City Lord and me; what does it have to do with you, a woman? Do you have a say in this? I remember you also threatened us back then, prohibiting us from participating in the bidding for the Annihilation Dao Venerable’s token, and you’re probably in cahoots with the Shenque City Young City Lord, aren’t you?"
Ye Feng laughed out loud.
He had long seen through Miaoyin Fairy. Though she appeared pure and noble, she had long been involved with the Shenque City Young City Lord, quite scandalous indeed.
"You!" Miaoyin Fairy trembled with rage, wishing she could snap Ye Feng’s neck.
Ye Feng glanced around, his gaze falling on the entourage from Shenque City, and said, "This is a spar between me and your Young City Lord; unless he admits defeat, I will keep suppressing him, and no one, not even the Heavenly King, can stop me."
"You want me to admit defeat? In your dreams!" The Shenque City Young City Lord howled defiantly.
The crowd of onlookers secretly laughed.
They had long been displeased with the Shenque City Young City Lord and Miaoyin Fairy, and now, watching Ye Feng suppress the Shenque City Young City Lord with one hand while scolding Miaoyin Fairy, he was the model hero in the eyes of many prodigies.
"Ye Feng is so handsome!" A love-struck young prodigy girl held her face, filled with admiration.
"This matter might escalate." Fei Hong surveyed the invincible Ye Feng and the surroundings, foreseeing the imminent arrival of a dominant presence.
Sure enough, moments later.
"Enough, stop!"
Outside the scene, a Dao Monarch appeared, a middle-aged man with folded arms, a hooked nose, with some resemblance to the Shenque City Young City Lord.
With his appearance, the mighty pressure of the Dao Monarch exploded, attempting to sweep across the scene.
"Uncle Thirteen, save me!"
The Shenque City Young City Lord seemed to find a lifeline, calling for help, hoping to be rescued by Uncle Thirteen without admitting defeat, thus retaining some Dao Heart and minimizing his loss.
Uncle Thirteen coldly glared at Ye Feng, "Boy, release your hand now and end the fight."
"You’re just at the initial Dao Monarch level, who are you to stop me from sparring with this person?" Ye Feng didn’t even give Uncle Thirteen a proper look, his tone cold.
"Hiss!"
Everyone gasped.
Oh my!
Ye Feng didn’t even give face to a Dao Monarch!
Such firmness, truly firm!
The prodigies admired Ye Feng even more, considering him deserving of the title ’Feng Ye Sword Venerable.’ As long as he remains alive, he is bound to become a genuine Venerable in the future.
A multitude of reputations erupted instantly!
