Douluo Continent: My Martial Soul is the Ten Ferocious Heavenly Horned Ant

Although many people are unaware of the existence of divine artifacts, have never seen one in their lives, and do not even know what a divine artifact means.

But the very word "divine artifact" implies something extraordinary, enough to drive mortals mad...

Moreover, in their view, this black box, shaped like a small boat, could withstand the full force of an eighth-ring Soul Douluo's powerful eighth Soul Skill without leaving any marks on its surface.

It was already destined that it was no ordinary object; what was inside might actually be a divine artifact.

At this moment, Niu Xiaomei, who had been standing silently beside Niu Fengzi, looked up at the black box, a hint of disappointment flashing in her eyes.

If it weren't for the fact that the siblings weren't powerful enough, and the information hadn't been leaked, they wouldn't have put this obviously unusual black box up for auction.

But many things in life are full of helplessness. If they don't put this up for public auction, the siblings might offend a lot of people.

These people all started as Title Douluo, and they couldn't afford to offend them, nor did they dare to.

Chapter 359, The Inner Thoughts of Everyone Inside the Heaven and Earth Mystic Private Room

Just as prices were rising, Dong Qing decisively sealed the deal, crushing those nobles and soul master families whose net worth was less than ten million gold soul coins.

"The third VIP box in the Heavenly tier offered ten million gold soul coins, and then immediately raised the price by seven million gold soul coins. Is there a higher price?" Niu Xiaomei couldn't help but exclaim.

Having learned their lesson from Prince Xuexing's previous incident—where speaking too impulsively offended the Holy Son of the Spirit Hall—the Heavenly Dou Auction House has now learned its lesson and has completely blocked that possibility.

Nowadays, whether it's the top-tier VIP box, the bottom-tier VIP box, or the top-tier VIP box, all use a sky-blue crystal tablet for bidding to avoid a repeat of the previous incident.

At this moment, as Dong Qing took the lead and made the first bid, other Heavenly, Earthly, and Mysterious-level rooms, as well as private rooms, also began to bid, and the auction price directly broke through the sky.

"The bid for the second VIP box is eleven million gold soul coins!"

"The bid for Box No. 5 in the Heavenly tier is 15 million Gold Soul Coins!"

"The highest-ranking VIP box has bid 25 million gold soul coins!"

"The bid for Box No. 4 in the Heavenly tier is 33 million Gold Soul Coins!"

"The bid for Box No. 6 in the Heavenly tier is 55 million Gold Soul Coins!"

"The bid for Box No. 6 of the Xuan series is 66 million gold soul coins!"

When the price soared to 60 million gold soul coins, the people in each private room had unique reactions, and their inner thoughts at this time were also very interesting.

【VIP Box No. 1】

Qian Renxue, who was in the No. 1 VIP box, couldn't help but frown her pretty brows after hearing that there were 60 million gold soul coins. Actually, she didn't have that much money.

Over the years, her entire net worth has hovered around 100 million. At this moment, she couldn't help but worry that she wouldn't have enough gold soul coins and wouldn't be able to bid on this final auction item.

However, because of that newspaper, her man should have a lot of money, so he should be able to win the final auction item that is suspected to contain a magical artifact.

Thinking about this...

Qian Renxue glanced at the location of the No. 3 VIP box, her beautiful eyes flickered slightly, and she did not continue to fight with her man for the black box that resembled a small boat.

[VIP Box No. 2]

Ning Fengzhi, in the second VIP box, appeared calm and collected. In his view, what was a mere 66 million gold soul coins? With the wealth of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, they could easily come up with 600 million gold soul coins.

However, it seems that his son-in-law, Dong Qing, also wants this final auction item. At this moment, he hesitates, unsure whether he should continue bidding on this black box that seems to contain a magical artifact.

Although others might think Ning Fengzhi was premature in acknowledging his son-in-law, in his view, Dong Qing had already been his chosen son-in-law when he hugged Ning Rongrong in front of him at the Tian Dou Imperial Palace.

If Dong Qing dares to disown him as his father-in-law, he dares to... go directly to Chief Jack of Holy Soul Village to complain and have him teach this unfilial descendant a lesson.

Ning Fengzhi did this entirely because, in the eyes of the world, Dong Qing was a very filial child, and he truly was such a person.

Otherwise, Ning Fengzhi would not dare to let Ning Rongrong rashly contact Dong Qing, after all, he only has one daughter and he does not want her to meet a heartless man in the future.

Normally, filial people can't be all that bad...

Of course, each situation should be analyzed individually, and not all should be treated the same. If some parents and elders are indeed not human, it is understandable if their children and grandchildren are not filial.

【VIP Box No. 3】

Dong Qing, in the No. 3 VIP box, appeared very calm, but a hint of doubt was hidden in his calm eyes.

He found it strange that the black box, shaped like a small boat, gave him a sense of déjà vu.

Could it be that I've been asleep inside for many years? If this feeling is true, how old am I this year?

And...am I even a purebred Earthling?!

Dong Qing couldn't help but scratch his head; his mind was momentarily in a state of confusion.

【VIP Box No. 4】

Yu Luomian, in the fourth VIP box, seemed a little nervous. The Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect was not as wealthy as the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, and the entire sect needed money everywhere.

Moreover, Yu Yuanzhen only allowed Yu Luomian to use a mere 70 million gold soul coins this time, but now this final auction item has already climbed to 60 million gold soul coins in just a few minutes.

It's clear that he's likely to return empty-handed this time.

Fortunately, he had acquired quite a few valuable items at the auction, so he wouldn't get a scolding from his older brother, Yu Yuanzhen, when he got back.

As for Liu Erlong, she seemed quite indifferent. She lay on a single chair, drinking an unknown fruit wine, and calmly watched everyone bid wildly for this final auction item.

【VIP Box No. 5】

Tang Xiao, in the No. 5 VIP box, frowned. He hadn't expected that his 15 million gold soul coins would be surpassed in such a short time, and the subsequent bids had even increased to 60 million gold soul coins.

At this time.

Tang Xiao was somewhat confused about the current situation on the mainland. Could it be that during the more than ten years that the Haotian Sect had closed its gates, all the sects on the mainland had become incredibly wealthy?

As for robbery and theft, he had considered it. Not to mention the two titled Douluo of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School and Dugu Bo, the retainer of the Heaven Dou royal family, the Heaven Dou Auction House itself was already quite troublesome.

The fact that Tiandou Auction House, which produces golden pills, has been able to be controlled by Niu Fengzi and Niu Xiaomei and has grown bigger and bigger must have a reason. Otherwise, it would have been forcibly taken away long ago.

Although Little Cow is just a fierce-looking cow, all she can think about is finding a boyfriend as soon as possible.

However, her brother Niu Fengzi has a wide circle of friends. It is said that he is not only close to Ning Fengzhi, the sect leader of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, but also very familiar with several titled Douluo of the Spirit Hall.

Moreover, today's gathering has brought together all the high-ranking figures or representatives of high-ranking figures from across the continent, including the three upper sects, the two great empires, and the Spirit Hall, which the Clear Sky Sect fears most.

Even if Tang Xiao wanted to take action, it wouldn't be easy!

Unless he wants the Haotian Sect to become the enemy of the entire continent...

[Private Room No. 6]

Emperor Xueye had a gloomy face. Because he was involved with the forces under Xue Qinghe [Qian Renxue], he was unable to openly use the gold soul coins in the national treasury.

However, the 80 million gold soul coins in his own treasury were simply not enough to acquire this highly valuable final auction item.

Sometimes, even emperors are powerless against a crown prince's attempt to seize power. As Emperor Xue Ye grows older, the number of people supporting Xue Qinghe [Qian Renxue] increases.

First, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School took the initiative to join her, and Ning Fengzhi, the sect leader of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, became her teacher. Later, two great generals of the empire, Li Qingsong and Liu Chuang, took the initiative to join her.

What Emperor Xueye never expected was that even the Minister of Revenue, one of the six ministers in charge of the Heavenly Dou Empire's treasury, secretly sided with the Crown Prince Xue Qinghe [Qian Renxue].

But Emperor Xueye was helpless in this regard. He was not the founding emperor with supreme authority who could completely control the empire. He had only inherited the throne from his father.

【Private Room No. 6, Xuan Character】

Dai Mubai looked very serious and focused at this moment. He had absolutely no interest in flirting with the charming woman beside him.

This time, the Star Luo Emperor, the strongest nation on the continent, and Dai Mubai's father, tasked Dai Mubai with bidding for the final auction item, which was suspected to contain a divine artifact.

Therefore, the Star Luo Emperor of the Star Luo Empire, as a great ruler and a powerful Title Douluo, defied public opinion and allocated 300 million gold soul coins from the national treasury to Dai Mubai, the only person who might inherit his position.

But... is 300 million gold soul coins really enough?

Chapter 360, Jade Maiden, the Female Heavenly Ant

While the people in the three private rooms of the Heavenly Profound Realm were all in a state of unease, the people in the main hall of the Heavenly Dou Auction House also began to discuss among themselves.

"Damn, why are people from the Xuan VIP box barging in when the big shots from the Tian VIP box are vying for this final auction item? Didn't you see that the people from the Di VIP box don't even dare to bid?"

"Didn't I say before? He is the Crown Prince of the Star Luo Empire, representing the Star Luo Empire. Of course, he has the financial resources to compete for this final auction item."

"That's strange. As the crown prince of the Star Luo Empire, why is he in the Xuan-class private room?"

"Are you an idiot? Or do you enjoy groveling to enemy countries? This is the Heaven Dou Empire. How could a crown prince of the Star Luo Empire be sitting in the top-tier VIP box?"

"But he is, after all, the crown prince of the Star Luo Empire... Our Heaven Dou Empire, as a great nation with numerous duchies and kingdoms under its banner, is this how we treat our friendly neighboring countries?"

"Get lost! Friendly nations and neighboring countries? Are you brain-dead? If it weren't for the Spirit Hall standing in the way, the Star Luo Empire's army would probably have already attacked. If you really like groveling to the Star Luo Empire, get out of the Heaven Dou Empire right now. The Heaven Dou Empire doesn't welcome people like you!"

"Hey, brother, I was just saying, why are you so angry? Besides, I was only thinking about the reputation of our Heavenly Dou Empire!"

"Screw your grandma's face, I'll fuck you [censored text]... Don't tell me you don't know how serious the border friction is between our Heaven Dou Empire and the Star Luo Empire. Although it's not enough to break out into a large-scale war, small-scale battles have never ended. Countless imperial soldiers die every day. Everyone knows the ambition of the Star Luo Empire. They have always wanted to devour the entire Heaven Dou Empire and eventually unify the continent."

"Uh! What does that have to do with me? I'm not an imperial soldier, just a businessman. If the Heavenly Dou Empire is destroyed, I can just go to the Star Luo Empire and establish myself there."

"Damn it... I may not be an Imperial soldier, but I am a patriot. You fucking [censored], I'll fuck you [censored], you dog [censored]."

..........

Leaving aside the increasingly heated bidding within the Tiandou Auction House, and the growing excitement and emotions of some people, a figure that Dong Qing should have been familiar with quietly appeared in the outer starry sky of the Douluo Starfield.

Douluo Star, in the outer space.

The eternally silent void was filled with deathly stillness and coldness; apart from the enormous fireball floating in the void, there was not a trace of warmth to be found.

This super fireball brought light and warmth to the surrounding planets. Some called it the sun, some called it the god of light, and some called it the golden crow.

It has different names in different worlds.

Just at this time.

A stunningly beautiful figure emerged from the void. The woman was barefoot, her snow-white feet gently treading on the empty air.

The woman walked casually, giving the impression of a goddess descending from the heavens to the mortal realm, her snow-white robe clinging tightly to her graceful body.

As she walked, she inadvertently revealed her tall figure, long and shapely legs, the beautifully undulating elasticity of her breasts, and the slender and supple waist and abdomen.

This woman possessed an unparalleled elegance that made people of all status feel an irresistible sense of awe and reverence in her presence.

Those clear eyes, sparkling with a sea-blue luster, radiated a knowing and calm understanding of the world, conveying a sense of having experienced the vicissitudes of life.

Coldness and nobility, allure and composure—these diametrically opposed feelings were miraculously concentrated in this mysterious and beautiful woman.

For some reason, this woman's eyes were always half-closed, as if she didn't care about anything around her, and there was no one she could care about.

But at this moment, she slightly opened her eyes, and a bright, clear gaze shot out, penetrating the thick atmosphere on the surface of Douluo Star and looking towards the direction of the Heaven Dou Empire.
