232: The Mysterious Realm Lord

"He has always been hidden in a mysterious place in the Twelfth Domain. Even I have never gone to explore it. There is a great secret hidden there, and even more terrifying experts than him."

"Don't be rash, the other party may not have ill intentions."

He nodded, observing the situation, because he noticed that 'Lord Hu' had also put away his arrogant demeanor, adopting an extremely respectful attitude.

In the blink of an eye, the old man walked to the middle of the two.

The old man had a kind Face, "Xiao Hu, how is your master, Blood Slaughter Blade Emperor, doing lately?"

"Thanks to your concern, Master Fuzi, my master is doing very well. He is currently assaulting the God Rank in a higher Plane."

Xiao Hu's expression was respectful, but he was secretly cursing in his heart, thinking that this Treasure Gathering Pavilion was truly unscrupulous to invite this person out. How could they possibly win now?

"Xiao Hu, give this old man some Face. Let's stop here for today. How about settling your grievances after the auction is over?"

In front of this person, even if Xiao Hu was unwilling, he dared not act presumptuously. He could only wave his hand helplessly and walk towards the city with the rest of the Lu family.

At this moment, Master Fuzi turned his gaze to Ji Mo again, his eyes profound, as if he wanted to see through everything.

This made Ji Mo feel as if he was being seen through, which he disliked greatly.

Fortunately, Master Fuzi retracted his gaze in time.

"Young friend, you are truly a Heaven's Chosen. Your talent is so strong that you can be said to be among the top tier throughout history. Your future achievements are immeasurable."

"Today, let's cease hostilities for now. After the auction, you can settle all grievances off the island yourselves, alright?"

Master Fuzi looked at Ji Mo meaningfully, his evaluation quite high.

"It seems this Master Fuzi has at least seen through my Sword Soul and Sacred Body, otherwise he wouldn't give such a high evaluation," Ji Mo thought to himself.

Since the other party had already left, what could he do if he disagreed? He shrugged and nodded, signifying his agreement.

Master Fuzi smiled contentedly, then turned and left with his people.

"Let's go, we should enter the city too," Ji Mo said to the few people behind him.

Upon entering the Formation, there were Treasure Gathering Pavilion staff at the city gate to receive guests. A Saint Rank First Heaven Cultivator came forward and led their group to a small courtyard.

Of course, only forces with Imperial Rank experts received such treatment; otherwise, there wouldn't be enough space.

On the street, Ji Mo sensed many Imperial Rank Auras, and even some powerful Late Stage Imperial Rank figures.

It could be said that this island now gathered most of the elite figures from the entire Plane.

These people all came for the divine corpse.

All for that distant Godhood.

In the small courtyard, Ji Mo and the others sat under a spirit fruit tree, chatting.

The old man named Master Fuzi returned to a secret room, took out a compass, and was communicating with a mysterious person.

"Realm Lord, I have already met Ji Mo. This child is indeed a Prodigy, or rather, a Prodigy among Prodigies."

"Oh?" An old, surprised voice came from within the compass.

"Master Fuzi, this is the first time in tens of thousands of years that I've heard you praise someone so highly. I did notice him before,

but at that time, although his strength could be considered good, he was ultimately a mortal body, without a special Bloodline.

Later, I heard that he had a God Rank backer, which must be true; otherwise, Blood Slaughter wouldn't be so wary."

Ji Mo couldn't imagine that he had actually been watched by a mysterious existence.

"Realm Lord, it's hard to verify the God Rank backer, but this kid is not as ordinary as you say; he definitely has a great secret."

Master Fuzi's words piqued the Realm Lord's curiosity, "Tell me, what made you come to this conclusion?"

"This kid already has a three-inch Sword Soul and has achieved the Sacred Body, a true Sacred Body. Just now, he instantly killed an Imperial Rank expert with one blow, yet he himself is only at the Saint Rank Second Level of cultivation."

"What?!" An incredulous gasp suddenly came from within the compass.

"How is this possible? Even in higher Planes, such Prodigies are rare. How could such a true Dragon appear in our Plane?"

The Realm Lord's old voice contained doubt, and faintly, a hint of excitement.

"Haha, Realm Lord, I saw it with my own eyes! Moreover, that wasn't even the kid's full strength. His limits are something even I can't see through. This is an unparalleled Prodigy, unprecedented through the ages! This kid is the perfect candidate you've been waiting for tens of thousands of years!"

"Master Fuzi, you must introduce this kid to me. Tens of thousands of years! Countless Geniuses I placed high hopes on have all fallen. I have a feeling this kid can definitely help me."

The Realm Lord's voice was filled with uncontrollable excitement.

Master Fuzi's aged Face was also beaming with joy at this moment.

"Don't worry, Realm Lord, since I took the initiative to contact you, I will definitely bring him before you."

...In the small courtyard.

Ji Mo said to Shangguan Batian and Shangguan Yanran, "Father-in-law, Yanran, after the auction ends, I will help you two Break through to Saint Rank and simultaneously cleanse your meridians and marrow."

"Really?" Shangguan Batian was excited, while Shangguan Yanran appeared calm, without much excitement.

"Do I also have a chance to Break through to Saint Rank?"

Elder Mu scoffed, "Just a mere Saint Rank, don't be so excited. With this kid as a son-in-law, becoming an Emperor or a God isn't a dream."

"Becoming an Emperor, becoming a God," Shangguan Batian murmured these two words, feeling a dizzy spell.

"Father-in-law, don't listen to Elder Mu. Those are things too far in the future. Breaking through to Saint Rank now isn't difficult. As for the future, we'll talk about it later."

Ji Mo said with a smile.

Unknowingly, the sun set in the west.

"Let's go, Lad Ji Mo, the auction is about to begin, we should depart."

The group left the small courtyard and headed towards the auction house.

Before long, a magnificent and grand auction house appeared before Ji Mo's eyes. It was the largest auction house he had ever seen, as big as dozens of football fields.

Moreover, it was clearly newly constructed, likely specially prepared for this auction.

As the group walked through the massive entrance, Ji Mo felt as if he had returned to the Bird's Nest on Blue Star.

It was a huge semi-circular venue, with a large auction stage at the front, which seemed to be the auction area.

At this moment, several Imperial Rank experts were already standing on the auction stage, the strongest among them at Imperial Rank Eighth Heaven, enough to deter petty criminals and prevent trouble.

In the 180-degree fan-shaped area in front of the auction stage, there were countless densely packed seats, estimated to be hundreds of thousands.

A large number of Martial Artists were already seated, some to watch the excitement, others to contend for auction items, making it extremely lively.

In front of these ordinary areas was the VIP section closest to the auction stage. These VIP sections were only for forces with at least Imperial Rank cultivation.

Originally, Ji Mo and his group were not qualified to sit here, as Elder Mu's cultivation was still a secret to all but a few.

However, yesterday he had slain an Imperial Rank expert with a wave of his hand, so he naturally received grand treatment, with an attendant guiding them to a seating area.
