Battle Through the Heavens: My Grandfather is a Six-Star Dou Sheng

Chapter 103 Robbery

Seeing so many questioning gazes directed at him from below the stage, the old man Baoshan stopped keeping him in suspense and slowly said, "The legendary Bodhi tree, which can supposedly make people instantly become saints, is about to reappear after ten thousand years. According to reliable information we have received..."

Before the words were even finished, the four words "Bodhi Ancient Tree!" resounded like thunder in the venue, stirring up a surging wave of excitement.

People reacted even more excitedly than when they heard about the Pure Lotus Demon Flame, as if those four words contained endless mystery and hope.

Some people were so excited that they stood up from their seats, their eyes gleaming with fervor and longing.

Those with weaker strength might not know much about this Bodhi tree, but the weakest among those below the stage had all reached the Dou Zun realm, so they were naturally very familiar with this legendary divine tree.

On the vast and boundless land of the Dou Qi Continent, there stands an ancient tree, the legendary Bodhi Tree.

If all the rare and precious materials on the Dou Qi Continent were to be ranked, this tree would undoubtedly occupy a top-three position. Its majesty and mystery have long been deeply ingrained in people's minds.

The Bodhi tree, also known as the Tree of Wisdom and Reincarnation, has an incredibly long growth cycle, growing only one ring every thousand years and taking hundreds of cycles to mature. Such a long period of time is enough for all things in the world to turn to dust in the long river of time, yet the Bodhi tree seems to stand outside of time, unyielding and ever-renewing.

This ancient Bodhi tree possesses three treasures. The first is the Bodhi Heart, which is formed from the heart of the tree and contains endless wisdom and mysteries. The second is the Bodhi Seed, each one as clear as jade, which is the fruit that the ancient Bodhi tree bears only once every thousand years and is extremely precious. The third is enlightenment under the Bodhi tree. It is said that as long as a person with the right affinity sits quietly under the tree and meditates, they can feel the miraculous effects of experiencing hundreds of lifetimes of reincarnation, thereby gaining the potential to step into the Dou Di realm.

As for the legendary third treasure—enlightenment under the Bodhi tree—people yearn for it, but they know it is ethereal and elusive.

Therefore, what truly attracted everyone present was the Bodhi Heart, which could help people step into the Dou Sheng realm, and the Bodhi Seed, which could significantly increase the success rate of advancing to Dou Sheng.

These two things were incredibly attractive to the powerful figures in the audience who hadn't yet advanced to the Dou Sheng level.

So soon, someone couldn't contain their excitement and eagerly asked, "Old man Baoshan, could you tell me the exact location of the Bodhi tree that is about to appear in the world?" Their voices revealed an undisguised longing.

This was exactly the question the audience wanted to know, so after the question was asked, all eyes turned to the elderly Baoshan, waiting for his answer.

"Hehe, please rest assured, everyone. Since I said this is the last one in the auction, I will not hold back. The location where the Bodhi Ancient Tree was born is in the desolate ancient domain in the northeast of Zhongzhou."

"The Ancient Wilderness!" Upon hearing this place name, everyone below the stage was taken aback.

Apart from Jiang Xing and Jiang Yue, the people below the stage were all old monsters who had lived for countless years. Naturally, they had heard of the Desolate Ancient Domain and knew about its mysteries and dangers.

The desolate ancient realm is a place fraught with unknowns and dangers. Ancient ruins lie there, concealing endless secrets. It is also a forbidden land for countless powerful individuals, for it harbors not only formidable beasts but also numerous unknown perils.

But now, the appearance of the ancient Bodhi tree in that place made everyone present somewhat uneasy.

"Dad, what kind of place is the Desolate Ancient Domain? Why do the people down there seem so afraid of that place?" Jiang Yue asked Jiang Xing curiously.

Jiang Xing had some knowledge of this desolate ancient domain, so he began to explain to Jiang Yue: "That desolate ancient domain is a dangerous place, full of ferocious beasts, and those beasts are very powerful. Even a peak Dou Zun expert wouldn't dare say he could come out safely."

"Dad, will you and Mom also go there to seize the opportunity of the Bodhi Ancient Tree?" Hearing that this desolate ancient domain was so dangerous, Jiang Yue's heart tightened, and she asked with some worry.

"Yueyue, don't worry. Daddy is a high-level semi-saint. Those ferocious beasts in the ancient wilderness, although fierce, are not enough to pose a threat to us. Don't worry, Daddy and Mommy will protect ourselves." Jiang Xing rubbed Jiang Yue's little head and said confidently.

Hearing Jiang Xing's comforting words, Jiang Yue's worries eased slightly.

She looked up at Jiang Xing, her eyes filled with admiration: "Yes, I believe Dad is the best!"

Jiang Yue grew up in the eastern part of Zhongzhou and had heard a lot about her father, so she believed Jiang Xing when he said that the ferocious beasts in the desolate ancient domain posed no threat to him.

After announcing this important information, the old man from Baoshan glanced at the audience and, seeing that no one had any questions, smiled and said, "Everyone, this information has been shared with you without reservation. This space trade fair has now come to a successful conclusion. Thank you all for your participation and cooperation, and I look forward to seeing you all again at the next trade fair."

As he finished speaking, the lively atmosphere in the ancient hall gradually dissipated, and everyone stood up, preparing to leave.

The gaunt man in black robes who won the auction for the fragment of the map exchanged a few words with his two companions in hushed tones before they walked toward the exit together.

"Dad, they're gone, let's hurry up and catch up!" Seeing the three leave, Jiang Yue was afraid they would get too far away, so she urged Jiang Xing.

Jiang Xing could even detect a hint of excitement in her words.

Jiang Xing couldn't help but smile and took Jiang Yue's hand.

"Okay, we'll follow."

Jiang Xing kept his eyes on the gaunt man in black robes, and naturally wouldn't let him escape.

So Jiang Xing followed along with Jiang Yue. His strength had already reached the advanced half-saint level, so even with Jiang Yue in tow, following the three of them was still very easy.

Following the three out of the space trade fair, I saw them suddenly accelerate and fly south towards the desert.

Murder and robbery after an auction is not uncommon in the Dou Qi Continent.

The three of them were clearly aware of this. They knew that if they auctioned off the fragment of the Pure Lotus Demon Flame map, someone would definitely covet the map and the pills they possessed.

The gaunt man in the black robe even regretted his momentary smugness in provoking the two men. Hadn't he just incited them to try and steal from them?

But since he had already done it, there was no use in regretting it. He could only hope that those two people wouldn't come.

After the three of them sped up and traveled for a while without sensing anyone following them, they all breathed a sigh of relief.

Only then did the three of them take off their black robes and begin to travel at a normal pace.

"Hmph, they couldn't win the bidding, so now they don't even dare to snatch it." One of them sneered, thinking of how he had just been worried that the two men would follow.

However, at that moment, a voice came.

"Oh? Is that so?"
