Chapter 2972: Law Celestial Talisman

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

The Imperial auction was held in an auction center that belonged to the Imperial family of the Solitary Nation. It was about a kilometer away from the Imperial palace. The Imperial family of the Solitary Nation would periodically hold an auction since it was part of a tradition in the Solitary Nation. The Imperial auction was the most prestigious event in the Solitary Nation and was usually attended by those of high status. The common folk would have to pay a huge number of Celestial Crystals just to enter the auction center.

As important personages, Duan Ling Tian and the people from the Supporting Fall Nation were, naturally, arranged to be seated in one of the best rooms in the auction center. A banner with the words 'Supporting Fall Nation' was hung outside the window of the room.

'The banners reveal all the occupants of the rooms…' Duan Ling Tian thought to himself when he discovered the two rooms across the Supporting Fall Nation's room had banners hung outside the windows as well. One of the banners had the words 'East Ming Nation' while the other one had the words 'Moran Nation'.

Meanwhile, the people from grade-eight and grade-nine forces began to discuss among themselves. Most of them had come to the capital of the Solitary Nation for the Royal Grade Celestial Sword initially but decided to participate in the auction for fun. They did not expect to see the people from the Supporting Fall Nation, the East Ming Nation, and the Moran Nation at the auction center as well. With these people here, they deduced something rare and precious would be put up for auction today.

"The Supporting Fall Nation, the East Ming Nation, and the Moran Nation are here as well?"

"Based on the banners outside the rooms, yes. It seems like they're all here for the same thing!"

"This is going to be interesting! We're really lucky to be here!"

"Fortunately, we didn't leave. Otherwise, we would've missed out on the excitement that's sure to come."

"Since the three nations are here, there must be something extraordinary that will be put up for auction! This is going to be exciting!"

Upon hearing the conversations of the people from the grade-eight and grade-nine forces, one of the residents in the capital of the Solitary Nation said, "Doesn't any of you know that the three nations are here for the Golden Nematodes? The Golden Nematodes are essential ingredients to refine the Profound Golden Pill."

"Golden Nematodes? The Profound Golden Pill?"

The people from the grade-eight and grade-nine forces were disappointed upon hearing this. Although Golden Nematodes were rare, they were not extremely rare or valuable. Most of its value lay in the fact that it was an essential ingredient to refine the Profound Golden Pill. It was not easy to refine the Profound Golden Pill unless one was a King Grade Celestial Alchemist, at least. Let alone prominent Celestial Alchemists, the success rate of refining the Profound Golden Pill for a Duke Grade Celestial Alchemist was not even 1%. Moreover, Celestial Alchemists at and above the King Grade were extremely rare. Not even one could be found in grade-seven forces. For all these reasons, most people were of the opinion that Golden Nematodes were useless.

Huang Yuan Fei, the City Governor of Passage City in the Supporting Fall Nation, looked at Duan Ling Tian and solemnly asked, "Little Tian, are you really confident you'll be able to successfully refine two Profound Golden Pills if we obtain the two Golden Nematodes?"

"Uncle Huang, I'm not a person who would simply talk if I'm not certain," Duan Ling Tian replied confidently.

"Alright! I believe you!"

Duan Ling Tian nodded in response.

Shortly afterward, the auction began after the seats in the auction center were filled.

A thin old man dressed in grey robes walked up on stage and swept his eyes across the hall before he said, "Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the Imperial auction of the Solitary Nation!"

Upon seeing the thin grey-clad old man, Duan Ling Tian thought to himself, 'This old man isn't simple. He has to be a Celestial King, at least!'

Similarly, Huang Jia Long could tell the grey-clad old man was different than the hosts usually hired for auctions. "Father, this old man doesn't seem simple…"

The old man stood on the stage with an indifferent expression on his face as though he did not care about the auction at all.

"Of course! He's the One Basic Celestial King who's always by the side of the Emperor of the Solitary Nation," Huang Yuan Fei said.

There were, naturally, many elite Celestials serving the emperor of a nation. However, there were very few Celestial Kings who were willing to serve an emperor of a grade-eight nation.

"One Basic Celestial King?" Huang Jia Long exclaimed in surprise.

On the contrary, Duan Ling Tian was not surprised at all. Due to the consumable Royal Grade Celestial Weapon, his senses were now rather keen. It was not difficult for him to discern the old man was a One Basic Celestial King.

At this moment, the thin grey-clad old man lifted a hand. All of a sudden, a Celestial Talisman glowing softly with a purple light appeared out of thin air. "I hope everyone will be able to obtain what they want in today's auction." He paused for a short moment before he continued to say, "This is a Celestial Talisman engraved by a Celestial King who had comprehended the law of thunder's Thunder Arrow Profundity. It's called the Arrow Explosion Talisman. When the talisman is crushed, tens of thousands of thunder arrows will shoot out within a 100-meter radius. They're capable of killing all Celestials weaker than Celestial Dukes!"

The old man held up the Celestial Talisman so the crowd could have a better look as he continued to say, "Ordinary Overarching Heavenly Supreme Celestials within a 100-meter radius won't be able to survive the attack unless they are exceptionally strong. Even One Basic and Two Forms Celestial Dukes would be severely injured if they were within close proximity! The starting price for this Arrow Explosion Talisman is 3,000 prominent Celestial Crystals."

Unlike most hosts in auctions, the old man did not extol the virtues of the Arrow Explosion Talisman. He only stated the facts about the Arrow Explosion Talisman.

Almost immediately, an old man dressed in a fine robe shouted, "3,000 prominent Celestial Crystals! This Arrow Explosion Talisman will definitely be useful for my grandson."

There was no doubt the Arrow Explosion Talisman was an exceptional defensive weapon for celestials weaker than Celestial Dukes.

Meanwhile, Duan Ling Tian was rather shocked. After all, the offensive Talismans he knew were rather mediocre. They were nowhere near as deadly as the Arrow Explosion Talisman. 'I didn't know a Celestial Talisman such as this one exists! It must be so powerful because of the profundity of the law, right?'

Huang Yuan Fei said in a timely manner, "This Arrow Explosion Talisman is only considered as a low-grade Law Celestial Talisman. A powerful Law Celestial Talisman is capable of killing Celestial Dukes and even Celestial Kings!"

"Law Celestial Talisman? There are Law Celestial Talismans powerful enough to kill Celestial Dukes and even Celestial Kings?" Duan Ling Tian exclaimed in shock as he widened his eyes.

"Yes. The Law Celestial Talismans capable of killing Celestial Dukes are precious, but it's not that rare. In comparison, Law Celestial Talismans capable of killing Celestial Kings are truly rare. This is because it takes a huge amount of time and effort to engrave a powerful Law Celestial Talisman even for a Celestial Emperor. A Celestial Lord is unable to engrave such a powerful talisman due to the strength limit," Huang Yuan Fei explained.

'A Celestial Emperor can engrave Celestial Talismans that could kill Celestial Kings?' Duan Ling Tian felt chills running up his spine upon hearing Huang Yuan Fei's words.
