第三千七百五十九章 鸿蒙至宝

The final treasure was about to reveal something that would shock the world. Everyone's faces showed a mix of anticipation.

"Now, let Lady Rain桐 reveal the answer," the current situation awaited her announcement.

The final auction would also be the most spectacular moment of the Peach Banquet Festival. All the answers would unfold at this moment.

"Deity friends, do you still remember when we first enjoyed the music and dance performance during the Peach Banquet?"

Lady Rain桐's voice entered everyone's ears with a touch of coldness but was as melodious as a yellowthroat warbler, making one feel it lingered for days.

"Music and dance?"

This hint left the old monsters in shock. Lin Xuan was surprised yet contemplative.

How could he forget?

Those performances were merely jests. What they saw back then was the moment of creation when the universe first emerged from chaos, containing incomprehensible laws.

The Laws of Initial Creation!

If one could comprehend and sense these, the benefits would be endless.

Unfortunately, what they witnessed was only superficial appearances; they couldn't delve deeper into it.

Lin Xuan had been curious about such treasures. They should be kept for oneself, so Rain岚's Commercial Alliance shouldn't have brought them out. Now he understood their intent—to set up a trap for the final auction.

What a cunning plan! But it was indeed intriguing.

Lin Xuan guessed that this final treasure might contain the most fundamental laws of creation. The other old monsters knew as much.

Buzzing and murmurs filled the air, with everyone's faces showing excitement.

Of course, all these were speculations; only Lady Rain桐 could make the final decision.

Even deities and demon kings couldn't escape this attention.

Then, Lady Rain桐 opened her lips, her voice like a melody of immortals, entering every cultivator’s ear:

"This last treasure is not to be kept under wraps. It's a fragment of chaos from the beginning of creation, a stone born in the primordial universe."

"What? A fragment of chaos?"

"Is it real or fake?"

"Have they lost their minds? Such treasures are usually too precious for public auction."

"The laws of chaos encompass everything. Even the Asuras only touched them without fully grasping the chaos laws. Once understood, one might surpass all deities. Such a treasure is rare and legendary. How could Rain岚's Commercial Alliance possess it?"

"Even if such an item exists, how can it be measured by mere crystal stones? Is Rain岚's Commercial Alliance being too strange with this move?"

...

Amidst the clamor, voices of shock and excitement echoed from all directions.

The old monsters were agitated, amazed, and doubtful, their expressions a sight to behold.

After all, this was too incredible. A Primordial Treasure, a fragment of chaos, something even true deities would fight for. To auction such a treasure was sheer waste, making it hard to believe.

Was Lady Rain桐 mad?

Many cast suspicious glances at her.

But she ignored these looks, flicking her jade hand. A shimmer of light appeared before her, and a black stone about the size of a foot emerged from the void.

Its shape was irregular, unremarkable at first glance.

Then, a strong aura of laws emanated from its surface.

This wasn't unusual; treasures that emitted such auras were rare but not unheard of by these old monsters. They weren't particularly impressive.

But then, something unbelievable happened.

First to notice the anomaly were the deities and demon kings, the top-tier experts.

"This isn't right. The laws of this universe seem to have changed," Ice Spirit said.

Then came the shock of Cold Moon Immortal: "Indeed, time and space laws are intersecting. Hmm, other laws seem to be shifting as well. Could it be my senses playing tricks on me?"

"Your senses can't be wrong. Such changes must be caused by the fragment of chaos," another cold voice entered everyone's ears, its content stirring hearts.

The Sacred Snake!

This woman sensed something amiss too.

Then, the Queen of Qingqiu, the Heavenly Saber King, Lone Goose, and Jade Pillar Immortal spoke up. Almost every cultivator felt the changes in the laws of this universe.

Changing laws were exclusive to domain experts, but such effects couldn't last without opening a domain.

It was known that domains were powerful but required astronomical amounts of energy, even for top-tier figures.

Thus, these top-tier experts only used their domains at critical moments, making it impossible to continuously alter the laws.

Such a scenario was almost impossible in this case.

Of course, nothing is absolute. Legends said that Primordial Treasures like fragments of chaos could achieve such feats.

Because they contained the most fundamental laws, encompassing everything and being the highest among all laws.

This confirmed Lady Rain桐's honesty.

"Truly a primordial object."

"Heavens, it’s real."

"Have I gone mad? Such treasures are usually too precious for public auction,"

...

Voices of shock echoed once more. In this universe, such a treasure had never been seen in an auction before.

Lin Xuan's eyes widened. Though he didn't want to admit it, his heart stirred with desire.

For a moment, Lin Xuan was filled with excitement but quickly regained composure.

Rare treasures were hard to come by, and one needed the right circumstances to enjoy them.

Such a treasure was beyond his current reach. Even if he gave everything away, he might not outshine those top-tier old monsters.

Moreover, even if he did win, what would it matter? Possessing such wealth could only draw unwanted attention from countless cultivators.

Lin Xuan wouldn't do something so foolish. Rain岚's Commercial Alliance’s cultivators weren’t fools; auctioning such a treasure made no sense from any angle. How could heaven send such a gift?

Thus, there had to be hidden reasons.

Was it a treasure or a trap? It was hard to say now. Only by observing would he avoid making the wrong choice.
