Chen Xue withdrew her small face and became serious. "The race you created has surrendered to the Evil Spirit Clan. Now that most of the beings in the myriad worlds have been subdued, we need to speed up the awakening process."
"Hmph, I knew this would happen. However, the Evil Spirit Clan will eventually be destroyed by his own hands, and we won't need to lift a finger. What we need to do is maintain the balance of the universe."
Leng Qingxue said coldly. Had the race she created finally begun to wreak havoc on the universe? She had sealed her own race along with herself. She hadn't expected the Evil Spirit Clan to find a way to break the seal.
"Since you have now regained your轮回 (reincarnation) consciousness, merge with him completely and become a part of him. There isn't much time left. The Gate of Reincarnation will close in another three hundred years. If he cannot experience eleven lives before it closes, then both his and the universe's endings are clear to us."
Chen Xue spoke with great solemnity. Leng Qingxue nodded in agreement, as this was her original intention. Leng Qingxue slowly closed her eyes, and a snow-white cocoon formed around her, enveloping her. Chen Tian's consciousness had fallen into Chen Tian the moment Chen Xue appeared. Chen Tian was unaware of his sister Chen Xue's identity. Chen Tian's consciousness was in a stupor, while Leng Qingxue's consciousness gradually merged with Chen Tian's. This was the true meaning of the轮回之身 (body of reincarnation).
Previously, Chen Tian had only used the body of reincarnation for combat and had not fully merged. It was only at this moment that the true fusion occurred. With this true fusion, Chen Tian's strength would undergo a sea change. Countless memories appeared in Chen Tian's mind – memories of that woman, the memories of Chen Tian's seventh life. The woman's name was Leng Qingxue, Chen Tian's seventh reincarnation, from the Frost World, one of the great worlds in the myriad realms.
Leng Qingxue, as the lord of the Frost World, commanded the entire Frost World. Under her protection, there were no enemies from outside. Chen Tian gradually learned about Leng Qingxue and Wang Yun. Outside, Chen Xue watched as cracks appeared on the snow-white cocoon. With a wave of her arm, the giant cocoon vanished from the arena. It was not the time to reveal her identity.
In Chen Tian's room, the snow-white cocoon suddenly appeared and then exploded. Chen Tian emerged with a refreshed appearance. His features were even purer and more divine than before, exuding an aura that repelled others, a sense of profound coldness. His gaze was devoid of emotion, striking fear into people's hearts.
Chen Tian sensed the power within him, and the system's voice rang in his mind: 'Ding, congratulations to the host for completely merging with the body of reincarnation. From now on, there is no distinction between us. Your strength has recovered to sixty percent. The mission reward has been changed. The mission reward is to unseal strength to eighty percent.'
Chen Tian felt the power within him. This power was immense, and Chen Tian couldn't control it for a moment. Due to the fusion with the body of reincarnation, Chen Tian was somewhat affected. The cultivation technique practiced in the seventh life was one that sought to forget emotions and desires, which caused Chen Tian to feel a chill in his heart, a detachment from emotions.
However, Chen Tian soon suppressed and even eradicated this feeling. Chen Tian in this life was himself. He was not any of his previous reincarnations; he was himself. He did not need to follow the path of other bodies of reincarnation. He would forge his own path.
Chen Tian looked up at the sky and suddenly thought of something.
He stepped out of his room and walked onto the city streets. Chen Tian arrived at the entrance of the Dark Realm Auction House. The place was packed with people. It had been two to three days since Chen Tian's battle and the fusion of his body of reincarnation. The Dark Realm Auction House was opening, and Chen Tian hadn't forgotten his mission.
He queued up to the entrance of the Dark Realm Auction House, where two guards stood, exuding an imposing aura. None of the cultivators present could match them. Their cultivation level should be at the eighth realm. Chen Tian didn't know his current strength yet. Before, he could contend with cultivators of the sixth realm, and now, facing cultivators of the eighth realm should not be too difficult.
Chen Tian estimated that if a fight broke out, neither side would be able to defeat the other. At most, they would be at a stalemate. When it was Chen Tian's turn to enter the Dark Realm Auction House, a guard handed him a badge. Chen Tian accepted it calmly. A trace of his aura entered the badge, and soon, a 'six' appeared on the badge.
"Sixth realm strength. You may enter the Dark Realm Auction House. Please come in, esteemed young master."
The guard made a respectful gesture. The Dark Realm Auction House was an auction based on strength. Only cultivators who had reached the fifth realm were allowed to enter. Within the auction house, cultivators of the ninth realm would also be present. Chen Tian entered the auction house with a calm expression.
As soon as he entered, a maid came to greet him. "Esteemed young master, I will escort you to your private room. This way, please."
Every auction house prioritized service. Chen Tian followed the maid and soon arrived at a room. The Dark Realm Auction House did not have a main hall; instead, it had private rooms. Cultivators of the fifth realm had a certain status and were unwilling to stand in a hall.
The interior design of the auction house was very spacious, with thousands of private rooms in total. There were even passages above Chen Tian's head, with more private rooms there. The total number of private rooms in the auction house reached several hundred million, making it a vast venue. Chen Tian quietly waited for the auction to begin.
The Dark Realm Auction House had just opened. The auction would only commence after all eligible cultivators from outside had entered. Of course, this auction was not just for the spawn egg; there were other precious items. As powerful as the Dark Realm Auction House was, it wouldn't dare to auction only one item.
If everyone vied for a single item, it would lead to chaos. Furthermore, the auction house had no rule about auctioning only one item at a time.
Chen Tian adopted an attitude of watching the show regarding the other items. Those things were of little use to him.
Soon, the doors of the Dark Realm Auction House slowly closed. The lights in the center of the auction house converged, and an elderly man, treading on lotus flowers, walked into the center. His aura radiated outwards, and Chen Tian could sense that this was a cultivator of the ninth realm.
The power of the Dark Realm Auction House was incredible. Even a mere host was a top-tier existence. Chen Tian wondered how many people behind the scenes possessed ninth realm strength. Chen Tian was surprised but it had nothing to do with him. Chen Tian did not want to conflict with the Dark Realm Auction House; he just needed to bid for that spawn egg.
The old man stood in the center and said in a voice carrying through the venue, "My name is Yun, and I am the host for this auction. We have thirteen precious items to auction today. I believe some of you are already aware of some of the item information, so there's no need for further explanation. Let's begin. The first item: Frosty Clear Water!"
A ripple went through the auction center. A necklace suspended in the air, crystal clear and translucent. At a glance, it felt refreshing and comfortable.
Upon closer inspection, there were waves on the surface of the necklace, like the flow of the sea.
Frosty Clear Water. This was an extremely precious treasure.
