"Oh, it's you," said another elder with a beard that reached his navel, known as Mayi Elder. "The one who was struck down by the first master of Thunder Sound Temple using the Nine Heavens Thunder Control True Formula—the Five Elements Child!"
Mayi Elder's words drew laughter from everyone present.
"You seek death, junior!" Five Elements True Man shouted, causing the auction hall to tremble like a great wave crashing, pulling some lower-level cultivators toward him.
Mayi Elder struggled to maintain his footing. With an angry roar, he steadied himself and stomped down, shattering countless jade chairs beneath him.
"No one is allowed to act violently at the Hundred Birds Night Market. Since this is your first offense, I will let it pass for now, but those who kill must die!" A cold voice echoed through the hall.
Thud! Thud!
Two loud cracks of bodies breaking resounded as two early-stage Great Ascension cultivators who had attacked their senior brother were instantly decapitated— even the Primordial Infant could not escape.
This scene left everyone present in shock; they couldn't even see how the hidden figure had struck!
"Ha! The one who killed that old man was clearly Five Elements True Man, yet you took it out on two innocents. I was wondering what kind of person has been behind the scenes at the Hundred Birds Night Market for thousands of years; turns out you're just a bully who picks on the weak," said a Black-Clad Elder wearing a cloak.
As soon as the Black-Clad Elder finished speaking, the temperature in the Auction Hall plummeted!
"For tens of thousands of years in the Five Elements Continent, from the Demon Moon Period to the Middle Sovereign Period, the Hundred Birds Night Market has always existed. Even the royal family never interferes with its affairs, and no one can violate its rules. The reason for killing those two juniors was to remind you that your cultivation is hard-earned. Are you challenging the authority of the Hundred Birds Night Market by calling me a bully?" The cold voice responded again.
"Stop pretending here; we are all in the Tribulation Period. How strong can you really be? If you have the ability, come out and fight me for three hundred rounds; otherwise, don't get in my way," Black-Clad Elder retorted angrily.
"Are you sure you're talking to me?" The cold voice grew closer.
"So what if I am? In today's cultivation world, countless Tribulation Period peers have awakened. You're just a behind-the-scenes figure at the Hundred Birds Night Market; I don't believe you can ascend to heaven!" Black-Clad Elder's anger intensified. Having lived for thousands of years, he had never seen anyone dare to act so arrogantly before him.
"Heh heh, two thousand years ago, it was you—the Autumn Water Immortal—who dominated the northern corner of Zhongzhou, wasn't it?" The cold voice suddenly remarked.
"So what if I am? Who do you think you are? If you have guts, come out and fight me; if not, get lost!" Autumn Water Immortal snapped back with an extremely arrogant attitude.
"Very well, I shall meet you," came the cold voice in response.
Boom! A massive hand suddenly shattered the air above the Auction Hall, reaching directly for the Autumn Water Immortal. The Autumn Water Immortal snorted coldly and said, "Little Daoluer, do you think such petty illusions can scare me?"
The Autumn Water Immortal was also a master of the Tribulation Period. He pointed his finger forward, and a thin layer of Autumn Water Mirror appeared in front of him, blocking the giant hand. The hand suddenly pierced through the Autumn Water Mirror.
The Autumn Water Immortal laughed and said, "I thought you were something special from the Monsters and Demons, but it turns out you're nothing more than this. Enter my Autumn Water Domain, and let's see how you can defeat me!"
However, just as the Autumn Water Immortal finished speaking, he suddenly stood there with wide eyes!
His eyes bulged out of their sockets, filled with bloodshot veins, and his face turned red as well. The crowd could only see through a misty mirror that the head of the Autumn Water Immortal had turned to dust, his body shattering like a clay figurine into pieces.
Outside the Autumn Water Domain, the Mayi Elder, who had previously clashed with the Five Elements True Man, swung his sword to try to sever the giant hand reaching down from above. The sword energy struck as if hitting against indestructible adamantine.
Several acquaintances of the Mayi Elder stepped forward to assist him; they were all old monsters of the Tribulation Period. Together, they aimed to eliminate the master behind the Hundred Birds Night Market because they were determined to obtain the Ten Thousand Year Ginseng King today. They had awakened solely to seek out the Ginseng King; if they did not break the rules of the Hundred Birds Night Market, how could they seize it?
With this thought in mind, numerous experts at the Nascent Soul Stage moved forward. The sword energy of the Mayi Elder received support from their True Qi, erupting into a brilliant light that illuminated the Divine Court. Those nearby were all knocked over as the Auction Hall collapsed with a thunderous crash!
Boom!
Amidst the chaos and confusion, the giant hand was severed by the overwhelming sword energy!
What was terrifying was that after being cut off, the hand suddenly grew larger. Cracks appeared on its surface, horrifying to behold, as it swatted toward the Tribulation Stage Old Monsters who had attacked.
Amidst a chorus of screams, these Tribulation Period old monsters were all smashed into pulp by the giant hand!
The powerful Primordial Infant exploded, sending shockwaves that knocked back any Supreme Cultivator who had approached.
Not far away, the Five Elements True Man flickered with five elemental lights in his palm before quietly retracting them. He was drenched in cold sweat from fear and turned to flee without hesitation. The few remaining Transcendence Stage Experts who had not acted were also terrified into silence; they cast a cold glance at Zhao Yang and several others still standing nearby before snorting disdainfully and turning to leave.
As the giant hand vanished, many cultivators who had been thrown into disarray began to regain their senses.
The red glow in their eyes disappeared as they looked around in confusion, unsure of what had just happened.
"Thank you, senior!" Zhao Yang clasped his fists in gratitude toward a certain spot in the clouds.
The person hidden in the clouds coughed lightly, seemingly injured, and made no response, disappearing into the air.
“Zhao Yang, Yuan Lie has run away! The High Priest is also missing,” Long Xiao Wu said.
Zhao Yang replied, “Yuan Lie is waiting for us outside the Hundred Birds Night Market. The owner of the Hundred Birds Night Market is clearly not someone to be trifled with; no one dares to make a move inside.”
“Who exactly was that? Their cultivation level is so high, it might even rival the Xuanbing Buddha,” Song Baliang asked.
“Who?” Zhao Yang pondered. He had already sensed that the owner of the Hundred Birds Night Market was hiding in the clouds when they made their move. However, when his Divine Sense reached that area, it was blocked and rebounded by an extremely strange wave of Divine Sense. When that person's hand was severed, he caught a glimpse of a broken root falling to the ground amidst the chaos.
Zhao Yang stored the root in his Cosmic Bag. The Ginseng Doll, who had been sleeping soundly inside, was suddenly awakened by a strange aura. Rubbing its sleepy eyes, it climbed up and saw the root emitting an unusual herbal fragrance. It immediately became excited and ran toward it.
The Ginseng Doll looked as if it had suffered a great grievance. Pouting with teary eyes while holding the root, it said, “Didn’t you already ascend to the heavenly realm?”
Zhao Yang's heart stirred as he heard the Ginseng Doll's whisper. He sent a thought transmission, asking, “Is this really the Heavenly Herb Immortal?”
It was said in the world that the King of Participation Becomes a Saint, Heavenly Herb Immortal, and Ginseng King referred to the Ginseng Doll following Zhao Yang. The term "Shou Wu" referred to a legendary herb that had existed since ancient times on the Five Elements Continent.
But if Shou Wu ascended to immortality, why would it remain in the mortal realm instead of ascending to heaven? And what did it need so many spirit stones for? Or perhaps this wasn’t truly the Herb Immortal but rather someone who had captured him, with their soul taking over and obtaining an immortal body?
Zhao Yang couldn’t comprehend it all; there were too many secrets in this world for him to unravel. With a sigh, he comforted the Ginseng King and led everyone out toward the Hundred Birds Night Market.
