Wu Dong: I, Lin Langtian, will not play a supporting role

As the convoy slowly entered the city, the clamor and bustling noise immediately rushed towards them, making it difficult for Lin Langtian, who had been in the Hundred Beast Forest for several days, to adapt.

The scale of Beiling City is no smaller than any city Lin Langtian had ever seen in the Tianxuan Continent. Moreover, perhaps because it is in the Great Thousand World, the entire city gives people a sense of grandeur and magnificence.

The wide streets are bustling with people, revealing the city's considerable popularity.

Upon arriving in Beiling City, Lin Langtian officially prepared to bid farewell to the Song family's caravan and depart.

Looking at Lin Langtian, who had changed into a green robe and whose tall, handsome face seemed to have been completely transformed, Song Yanfei couldn't help but purse her red lips slightly, her eyes exuding a natural charm.

Although Lin Langtian came from a lower plane, Song Yanfei had to admit that even by her standards, Lin Langtian was the most unique and extraordinary man she had ever seen in her life.

Lin Langtian didn't pay attention to Song Yanfei's gaze. Then, as if he had thought of something, he looked at her and asked with a smile.

"By the way, Miss Yanfei, I wonder if there are any famous auctions in Beiling City? I'd like to go and check them out."

Lin Langtian asked this question because although he had cultivated the Supreme Demon Body, he lacked several crucial materials due to being in a lower plane, so his cultivation of the Supreme Demon Body was incomplete.

However, with the arrival of the Demon Emperor imminent and the situation on the Tianxuan Continent extremely precarious, Lin Langtian couldn't afford to worry about anything else.

However, in Lin Langtian's view, the Supreme Demon Body has extremely great potential. If it is cultivated to perfection, it will probably be no less than the five Supreme Dharma Bodies in the Great Thousand World.

While Lin Langtian's current Supreme Demon Body possesses considerable combat power, in terms of sheer strength, according to Aunt Ling, it only ranks around the lower-middle level of the sixtieth among the ninety-nine Supreme Dharma Bodies.

Lin Langtian was extremely dissatisfied with this, as the lower level of the ninety-ninth-grade Supreme Dharma Body was naturally insufficient to satisfy his ambition.

Therefore, Lin Langtian's top priority is to replenish the three key materials needed to cultivate the Supreme Demon Body. Even if he cannot achieve the Supreme Demon Body in one step, he should at least be able to break into the top fifty or even the top thirty.

Song Yanfei was taken aback by Lin Langtian's question. She did not inquire further about Lin Langtian's purpose, but after a moment's thought, she spoke.

"There is indeed an extremely famous auction house in Beiling City called the Wanshang Auction House. This auction house has a powerful background and is spread throughout the entire Qiankun Continent. There are even rumors that the Wanshang Auction House has some connection with the Shang Continent."

"The Continent of Merchants?" Upon hearing this, Lin Langtian raised an eyebrow slightly.

He did have some impression of the Continent of Commerce; as the name suggests, it was a continent where commerce was the main theme.

On the continent of commerce, there are countless auction houses with considerable reputations. Although the continent is not vast, its fame is quite renowned throughout the world.
The source of this fame is that the Shang Continent is a gathering place for countless rare treasures of heaven and earth.

The slogan promoted by the Continent of Merchants is that as long as you have enough Supreme Spirit Liquid, you can buy anything you want here.

The slogan is somewhat domineering, but it also reveals the profound heritage of the Shang Continent.

Therefore, when Lin Langtian heard that the Wanshang Auction was actually related to the Shangzhi Continent, he immediately became interested.

Perhaps, this trip will indeed yield some unexpected gains.

"Miss Yanfei, may I ask where this Wanshang Auction House is located in Beiling City?" Lin Langtian asked.

Upon hearing this, Song Yanfei pursed her red lips slightly, looked at Lin Langtian with her beautiful eyes, and said, "I have been to the Wanshang Auction a few times, so I am quite familiar with its route."

"Now that I'm back in Beiling City, I'll have some free time. Perhaps I could accompany Young Master Langtian?"

"Well, of course that's fine." Lin Langtian was a little surprised to hear that Song Yanfei wanted to go along, but he did not refuse her kindness.

After the two had reached an agreement, Song Yanfei dismissed Song Jiang and his entourage, and then led Lin Langtian to the Wanshang Auction House.

Watching Lin Langtian and Song Yanfei walk away together, Song Jiang shook his head and sighed softly, "I never imagined there would be a man in this world who could make the young lady so proactive..."

……

On the other side, Lin Langtian and his companion walked through several streets, rounded a street corner, and suddenly their view opened up.

Before them stood an enormous hall, emanating a powerful spiritual energy that exuded an extraordinary aura.

Outside the main hall, a vast crowd surged in, a sight that impressed Lin Langtian.

Lin Langtian looked up at the giant golden characters outside the main hall of the "Wanshang Auction House" and murmured, "It is indeed quite large in scale."

The main hall resembled a colossal beast, its mouth agape, swallowing the vast crowd without creating any sense of congestion.

Such a scale is probably one of the best in the entire Tianxuan Continent.

"Although the Wanshang Auction House is extremely famous, it is not always this lively. It just so happens that we have come across the Wanshang Auction House's semi-annual Heavenly-level auction today."

In addition to the regular auctions, the Wanshang Auction is divided into three levels: Heaven, Earth, and Human. The Human-level auction is held every three days, while the Earth-level auction is held once a month.

The highest-level Heavenly Auction is held every six months, so each Heavenly Auction features many valuable treasures, including rare artifacts, divine techniques, and elixirs.

It is said that at one of the Heavenly-level auctions, a fragmented divine technique was auctioned off, causing a sensation throughout the entire Beiling City and the vast Northern Region.

Therefore, every time a Heavenly-level auction is held, even the top forces in the Northern Region, where Beiling City is located, will send their strongest experts to attend.

"If nothing unexpected happens, we should see quite a few rare treasures at this Heavenly-level auction," Song Yanfei said from the side.

"A Heaven-level auction, with supernatural abilities?" Upon hearing this, Lin Langtian raised an eyebrow slightly.

Because of his memories of his previous life, and with Aunt Ling, a powerful figure in the Great Thousand World, Lin Langtian was not entirely unfamiliar with the Great Thousand World, even though he came from a lower plane.

Lin Langtian also knew something about supernatural powers; those were martial arts that only Earthly Sovereign level experts could cultivate, and their power was astonishing.

Even if it's just an incomplete supernatural technique, it's still a supernatural technique, and in terms of value, it's not something that ordinary Supreme Realm experts can afford.

I never expected that this auction house would have such a treasure; it is truly extraordinary.

Thinking of this, Lin Langtian's face also showed a hint of joy. The more powerful the Wanshang Auction was, the greater the possibility that he would be able to bid for the three key materials to complete the Supreme Demon Body.

His only worry now was whether his wallet was full. "Let's go."

Shaking his head, Lin Langtian waved his hand and led Song Yanfei into the magnificent hall.

Upon entering the main hall, Lin Langtian could clearly feel that there were spatial fluctuations around him, and his vision blurred slightly before becoming clear again.

Inside the main hall, it was exceptionally bright, and the floor was made of dazzling crystal.

The hall was packed with people, but even with so many people gathered there, it didn't feel crowded at all; on the contrary, it felt exceptionally spacious.

Lin Langtian walked into the main hall and looked around. Although the hall was extremely magnificent, Lin Langtian, as the master of a plane, did not feel like a country bumpkin entering the city. Instead, he calmly observed his surroundings and occasionally nodded with slight appreciation.

Seeing Lin Langtian so calm and composed, with his seemingly innate confidence and steadfast demeanor, Song Yanfei was quite surprised.

In her view, Lin Langtian, who came from a lower plane, even if he was quite strong, should never have seen such a strange and magnificent scene.

However, Lin Langtian's composed demeanor throughout did not resemble that of a country bumpkin from a lower plane at all; rather, he seemed like a young master from a top power in the Great Thousand World who was traveling.

Although she was extremely surprised, Song Yanfei did not linger. She threw ten drops of Supreme Spirit Liquid at a woman at a counter, took two tickets to the auction, and led Lin Langtian through the main hall and into a gate of light.

Beyond the gate of light appeared a vast arena-like space, large enough to accommodate tens of thousands of people.

Moreover, it is now packed with people; the sheer number of people is terrifying.

Seeing this, Lin Langtian narrowed his eyes slightly. Such a lively scene was truly worthy of the Great Thousand World.

Song Yanfei searched for a location, while Lin Langtian slightly turned his head and looked to the right, where there was also a gate of light not far away.

At that moment, several figures were slowly walking in.

As those figures slowly approached, Lin Langtian clearly felt that many eyes were immediately drawn to him, their gazes filled with a hint of fervor.

Upon seeing this, Lin Langtian also looked up and saw a woman wearing a red, tight-fitting cheongsam with an exceptionally alluring and fiery figure.

The woman had long, fiery red hair, and on her fair, delicate oval face hung an extremely charming smile that made the men around her swoon.

As the woman's slender waist swayed gently, like a snake's waist, she gracefully approached. With each light step, the glimpse of spring through the gaps in her red cheongsam drew countless eyes.

Behind the woman followed an ordinary-looking middle-aged man, who always kept a step's distance from her. In the occasional glance he raised his eyes, a chilling glint flashed across his gaze.

Lin Langtian looked at the middle-aged man and felt a slight tremor in his heart, because he felt a sense of oppression from the latter.

This seemingly ordinary middle-aged man was actually quite strong; in Lin Langtian's opinion, he was probably at least at the level of a fourth-grade supreme being.

"They are from the Heavenly Demon Sect. The Heavenly Demon Sect is a top power on this Qiankun Continent, with extremely strong strength. They have a presence in most auction houses on this continent." Song Yanfei's calm voice came from the side.

"This woman must hold a high position in the Heavenly Demon Sect, otherwise she wouldn't have a fourth-grade Supreme protecting her."

"Tianmo Sect"

Lin Langtian memorized the name; it was the first powerful sect he knew of in this vast world.

As Lin Langtian and Song Yanfei were observing, the middle-aged man beside the alluring woman in the red, tight-fitting cheongsam seemed to notice something.

He slightly raised his head, glanced in the direction of Lin Langtian and Song Yanfei, then his gaze lingered on Lin Langtian, and he paused involuntarily.

Although the middle-aged man's movements were subtle, they were still noticed by the alluring woman in the cheongsam. She also seemed to sense something and looked in that direction, her captivating eyes locking onto Lin Langtian.

As Lin Langtian gazed into those alluring eyes, his heart suddenly raced, and even the blood in his body seemed to flow faster.

However, he quickly realized something was wrong. His eyes narrowed, and a thunderous roar seemed to resound within his body, suppressing the strange feeling completely.

"Seduction techniques!"

Sensing the changes within his body, Lin Langtian's heart suddenly tightened. The so-called seductive arts were also an application of mental power, capable of controlling a person's mind.

"It's not a seductive technique; this woman possesses the Heavenly Demon Seductive Body. With every frown and smile, she can captivate people's hearts. In the vast world, the Heavenly Demon Seductive Body is an extremely unique constitution."

"But I don't like this kind of constitution. I'll beat them up one by one from now on, and I'll take responsibility if anything happens." Aunt Ling's somewhat resentful voice rang out at this moment.

"Heavenly Demon Charm Body".

Lin Langtian was taken aback, then noticed Aunt Ling's tone and was slightly surprised, as he rarely saw Aunt Ling lose her composure.

Could it be that Aunt Ling was once robbed of her love by someone with a naturally alluring body, which is why she hates women with a demonic allure so much? Lin Langtian wondered to himself.

"what?"

While Lin Langtian was lost in thought, the woman in the cheongsam let out a soft exclamation of surprise, but she did not make any further movements. Her beautiful, peach-blossom eyes swept over him before she lazily looked away.

Immediately afterward, under the watchful eyes of countless burning gazes, the woman in the cheongsam arrived at the very front of the auction hall and finally ascended a small pavilion veiled by a thin gauze curtain.

However, it is clear that such a place is not a place that ordinary people can enter.

Lin Langtian wasn't too envious of this. He was a newcomer with no background, no reputation, and his strength was insignificant in the vast world, so he naturally didn't seek any special treatment.

However, just as Lin Langtian was about to find a place for Song Yanfei to sit down, several more figures appeared not far away. When Song Yanfei saw the white-robed youth at the head of the group, her expression immediately turned ugly.

At the same time, the white-robed youth opposite also noticed Song Yanfei, and a smile immediately appeared on his slightly effeminate and pale face.

"Consort Yan, what brings you here..." (End of Chapter)
