This wasn’t sothing that could be accomplished with Spirit Stones alone; you also needed soone willing to sell.
Only a handful of Top Grade Magical Artifacts had ever appeared on the market.
But here was Xiao Chen, looking like a wholesaler displaying Magical Artifacts of all different shapes and sizes.
Hei Bai Zi couldn’t recognize the origin of more than half of them, aning they clearly hadn’t co from any famous auction houses.
And the ones he could recognize, like the Fire-Storage Treasure Gourd, were even more outrageous. He rembered that being Elder Su’s prized possession.
"How dare you!"
Just then, a furious roar echoed.
rely hearing the sound caused the Spiritual Qi in everyone’s bodies to stagnate.
Imdiately after, the clouds above Seeking Plum Mountain suddenly tore apart, and a colossal hand dozens of feet wide pressed down toward Xiao Chen.
It was called a hand, but a closer look revealed it was covered in purplish-gold scales.
Each fingernail was a full nine feet long and tipped with barbs, making it look more like the giant claw of a Fierce Beast.
It was accompanied by an exceptionally powerful pressure, as if an Ancient Fierce Beast had descended upon them.
So of the weaker Cultivators, whether from the Righteous or Demon Dao, felt a primal fear rising from the depths of their very bloodline.
The Nine Bends Linked Ring Immortal Trapping Array was instantly triggered. The nine nearest pillars of light imdiately unleashed eighty-one bolts of lightning to intercept the giant claw.
Each bolt of lightning, infused with the Array’s Power, was no less potent than the full-force strike of a Foundation Establishnt Cultivator at the Great Perfection stage.
However, when the surging lightning struck the giant claw, it instantly disintegrated into a chaotic spray of electrical arcs.
It was completely powerless to stop the claw; in fact, the arcs looked more like a special effect accompanying the claw’s own Magic.
Song Jingyi, watching from a short distance away, was startled by the sight.
’Xiao Chen’s display was clearly too impressive, and a Golden Core expert from the Demon Dao couldn’t resist making a move.’
Fortunately, the Defensive Array had slowed the attack, so the giant claw didn’t seem to be descending very quickly.
"Xiao, get out of there!"
Qiu Qichen shouted anxiously, seeing that Xiao Chen wasn’t moving.
"Xiao, what’s wrong?"
Liu Feng, on the other hand, could tell sothing was wrong, but he was powerless to help.
In truth, it wasn’t that Xiao Chen didn’t want to move. A powerful Magical Power had already bound him in place, forcing him to stand and wait for the giant claw to descend.
This restraint wasn’t so kind of control technique, but a simple, brute-force compression of Magical Power.
It was as if the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi around him had suddenly solidified into six walls, trapping him completely.
The Divine Protection Veil was useless against such a tangible Spiritual Energy Barrier.
And this was the true power wielded by the giant claw.
Any Cultivator incapable of shattering the Spiritual Energy Barrier could only brace themselves and take the hit.
Fortunately, another voice cried out at that mont, "Stop!"
.
As the voice rang out, a silver light shot forth from Seeking Plum Mountain.
Within the silver light, stars seed to flow, and various constellations floated, creating a magnificent and beautiful sight.
But the more beautiful sothing is, the more dangerous it’s likely to be. Getting hit by that silver light would surely lead to a terrible end.
Yet, the instant the silver light appeared, a beam of white light shot out from the base of the mountain.
All the Cultivators present imdiately felt as if they had been transported to a land of ice and snow.
Trailing behind the white light was a pillar of solid ice.
A thick layer of white frost appeared out of nowhere, coating the earth, wood, sand, and stone in its path.
The white light, though launched second, arrived first, colliding with the silver light.
Only then could everyone see that the lights contained two Spiritual Artifacts, now entangled with one another.
For the mont, neither could gain the upper hand.
Pinned inside the Spiritual Energy Barrier, Xiao Chen was unable to move, but he wasn’t flustered.
He gave up struggling and instead watched the duel between the Spiritual Artifacts with great interest, broadening his own horizons.
"Ghost Flood Dragon, have you no sha, attacking a junior like this?"
Another voice spoke, and a verdant bamboo pole suddenly flew out from Seeking Plum Mountain. It shot straight toward the clouds, apparently aiming to relieve the siege by attacking the besieger.
Although it looked like an ordinary bamboo pole at first glance, anything daring to make a move at a ti like this had to be a Spiritual Artifact.
However, the giant claw continued its slow descent, showing no signs of alarm.
A mont later, a colorful ribbon flew out from the clouds and ensnared the green bamboo.
At the sa ti, a sweet, enchanting female voice rang out, "Hezhou doesn’t seem to have a Spiritual Artifact of this style. Could that be Daoist Qianzhu from Qianzhu Market?"
As she spoke, an incomparably beautiful and charming face appeared in the clouds.
Master Yaoshang was draped in brocade and veiled in a thin layer of gauze, her exquisite figure only faintly visible.
Her smiling face naturally activated her Charm Technique, which had reached the Great Success stage. A re glance was enough to make one feel a fire ignite in their lower abdon as their mind filled with distracting thoughts.
With her blocking the way, Thousand Bamboo True Man was unable to directly attack Ghost Flood Dragon True Man.
The giant claw wasn’t in a hurry either. It seed its purpose wasn’t solely to kill Xiao Chen, but rather to use this opportunity to force the Righteous Golden Core experts to reveal themselves and intervene.
However, under the watchful eyes of the crowd, the giant claw descended completely.
In the three full breaths it took, no other Golden Core True Man from Seeking Plum Mountain made a move to save him.
SNAP!
The giant claw snapped shut viciously. Amidst the gasps of countless Foundation Establishnt Cultivators, not even a speck of flesh remained.
’Huh?’
Ghost Flood Dragon True Man felt that sothing wasn’t quite right. It seed as if he had just closed his hand on empty air.
But he didn’t dwell on it. ’After all, it’s just a re Foundation Establishnt Cultivator. Once caught by my Heaven-Caging Claw, escape is impossible.’
So, according to his original plan, he revealed his massive, hundred-yard-long body from within the clouds and began to assault the Nine Bends Linked Ring Immortal Trapping Array.
