“It’s okay, it’s okay!” Noir patted her shoulder lightly, then thumped his chest and confidently declared, “No matter what happens, I’ll take care of it for you!”Andrius rolled his eyes.This guy turned into a simp so quickly!However, at this point, Andrius did not think much about it. The auction was still ongoing after all.After another four or five items, it was finally time for the grand finale.“Ladies and gentlemen… The beautiful host smiled.Three ladies gracefully approached, each holding a tray covered with a red veil that concealed the contents.Then, the host lifted the veils, revealing three boxes of identical shape and size. The only difference was that each box had a different number.“This is the highlight of this auction.” The host introduced in detail, “This is a rare medicinal herb from the Arbeis mountain range—the Dragon Flame Lotus. Due to it growing in extreme cold, it possesses extraordinary medicinal properties.“However, due to its extreme rarity,
“Oh, my God...”The people in the venue noticed it was Richard and could not help but gasp.“Richard is the young general of Flandom and is undoubtedly one of the top among the younger generation. His family’s wealth is countless!”“Is he going to compete with the Florencian for the blind box? Seems like things are getting interesting.”“Oh, I’m so glad I came here today!”“Maybe we’ll be able to watch a spectacular show soon!”...The venue immediately erupted.Everyone was excited by Richard. They were all looking forward to seeing who would come out on top.After all, everyone knew Richard’s identity and wealth.“Friends from Florence...” Richard revealed a gentlemanly smile, but his eyes gleamed with a cunning light. “I forgot to introduce myself earlier.“I am Richard, the commander of the Flandom Knights of Death. My father, Alexander, is the only five-star general in Flandom. His reputation is renowned worldwide, so I’m sure you’ve heard of him.“Since I reluctantly
“We can easily take the remaining two blind boxes at a low price. As long as we have those two boxes, the Florencians won’t be able to sit still. They’ll come looking for us, and you can easily find out their identities.”Richard pondered.Yes, that made a lot of sense.Thus, he said sinisterly, “Since the guests from Florence are so interested in the treasures of Flandom, as a Flandonian, I should be generous. Host, I’ll stop bidding for the first blind box.”He stopped bidding!No one expected that the first round would be won by someone from Florence. They were all shocked for a moment.Andrius did not find Richard’s words amusing, but since he won the blind box, he did not bother arguing and said to the host, “Please announce the results.”“O-oh, right!” The beautiful host was momentarily stunned before announcing, “The first blind box is won by table number 83.”Then, she signaled to the maid beside her to place the tray nearby and cover it with a crystalline cover to ensu
Fierde’s voice was not loud, but it was clear and resonated in everyone’s ears.“Tsk, tsk, tsk...” Richard grinned triumphantly. “Buddy, how dare you be so arrogant without any money in your pocket? Such courage is truly admirable.“Sorry, but I’ll be taking the second blind box! In addition, I’ll also announce in advance that I want the third blind box as well. Hahaha...”At that point, Richard could not help but burst into laughter.Andrius looked at his smug expression and could not be bothered to deal with him. He simply took out another card from his pocket.It was not an ordinary bank card. It was entirely black with a gold border around it. There was neither any description of the bank that issued it nor the card number displayed. There was only a vast ocean adorned with sapphires in the middle, endless and boundless.“That’s...” Richard saw the bank card and suddenly widened his eyes in disbelief. He looked at Andrius in amazement and exclaimed, “The World Bank black card
Richard’s expression turned dark as a storm cloud, extremely unpleasant. He could not accept this.However, the cash in his hands was no longer enough to continue bidding.Andrius did not provoke Richard when he saw the latter fall silent. Instead, he said to the beautiful host, “Since no one is bidding anymore, announce the results.”The host glanced at the VIP room and confirmed that there was no sound coming from it, then loudly announced, “Table 83 wins the second blind box.”Andrius sighed in relief. He got two out of the three blind boxes. That was a good result.Now, everything would be foolproof as long as he secured the last blind box.In the VIP room, Richard’s face was flushed with anger. He smashed the various items in the room, venting his dissatisfaction.“Damn it! That Florencian scum! Goddamn him—argh!”His ferocious appearance had already frightened the ladies into paling.After he vented for a while and eased off, a subordinate approached him and whispered a
Andrius smiled faintly and said, “Of course.”With the agreement reached between the two parties, the tense third round of the auction was postponed until tomorrow.People started leaving the venue one after another, discussing as they went.Andrius, Noir, and Katalina also left the auction.Due to the suspension of the auction, Margerina, as well as the two blind boxes, were temporarily kept in the auction house.“Andy, this auction house is really shameless.” Noir complained indignantly and asked, “What do we do next?”“Simple.” Andrius had already thought of a plan and replied without hesitation, “Borrow money from the emperor in my name. Borrow as much as possible.”Andrius was not afraid of not being able to pay it back.If not for the trillion-dollar bank card he gave to Belarus, he could easily fork out the money himself. The world-class hotels, luxury cruise ships, oil fields, and islands under his name brought in huge wealth every year.“Got it, Andy. I’ll take care o
“Andy, are we just going to sit around like this, then?” Noir was very cagey.Andrius also could not accept this. However, he could not think of a good solution for the time being, so he fell silent.“Wolf King, Noir!”Just then, Katalina walked over. She bowed deeply to the two, then said sincerely, “I’m really sorry for causing you trouble. Richard must be suspicious of your connection with my sister, so he deliberately targeted you and ruined your plan, Wolf King. I apologize on behalf of my sister. I’m sorry!”Noir hurriedly helped her up.Andrius waved his hand and said, “Given the current situation, you’re not to blame. Richard intentionally targeted us. He’ll use any excuse to prevent me from getting the blind box.”“Actually...” Katalina hesitated for a moment, took a deep breath, and then said as if she made a decision, “Wolf King, maybe I can help you.”Andrius and Noir looked at each other, their thoughts immediately beginning to run.Yes, Katalina was the daughter o
Retrieving the treasure was indeed better with fewer people.However, the three of them would probably be under tighter surveillance, making it more difficult to accomplish the task.Andrius thought about it and said, “Noir, contact the Lycantroops HQ in Florence and see if there are any fugitives from Florence who have escaped to Flandom.”“Fugitives?”Noir was confused for a moment but quickly understood.Using fugitives for this kind of thing was indeed a good idea. Not only would it keep them from being closely monitored by Richard’s people, but also avoid criticism if the mission succeeded.“Okay, I’ll ask right now.”Noir immediately made a call to the Lycantroops HQ.A moment later, he hung up the phone and grinned at Andrius. “There is, Andy!“A few years ago, a famous mercenary group called the Arctic Fox Mercenary Corps appeared in Florence. They looted many treasures within Florence’s borders. Over the years, they’ve accumulated countless wealth and even alarmed the
Noir immediately checked the life token.It was unbroken!This meant that Andrius was still alive, and he must have ascended to the Divine Realm.Noir was relieved.Remembering his responsibility to protect Luna, he exchanged a glance with Halle, Kate, and the others before quietly leaving.Not long after, a group arrived at the Immortal Demon Palace and began their cultivation, striving to ascend to the Divine Realm as soon as possible.In an ancient and desolate location, there were grand halls, statues of fierce beasts that still seemed lifelike despite the passage of time, sky-piercing pillars, and a sea of clouds...Everything looked majestic and awe-inspiring.However, it was eerily silent, like a dead land devoid of life.Until...Whoosh!A ray of light suddenly shot from the distance, moving at an unimaginable speed and entering the soul control orb at the center of the great hall.Then, a soul apparition started to form.It was none other than Andrius.He looked
Andrius’ condition was pretty bad.He thought that with his current realm and strength, he could handle the divine tribulation and successfully ascend to the Divine Realm.However, the strength of the divine tribulation far exceeded his expectations.He seemed to have easily dealt with the first strike.In reality, the moment the divine lightning struck his palm, the destructive force within it surged through his meridians and directly attacked his soul.As expected of the divine tribulation.So, Andrius did not dare to be careless anymore and immediately gathered his immortal essence to resist.However, that was just the beginning.Each divine bolt was stronger than the last, and their deafening sounds and unstoppable destructive power left Andrius in agony.The tribulation cloud showed no signs of dissipating, too. Instead, it grew even darker and heavier, pressing down on everyone until they could not breathe.Rumble—Crackle—The thunder rumbled relentlessly, and the li
If his true form was destroyed and his soul dispersed, the life token would shatter.That would be how Noir and the others would know about his situation.For the rest of his time, since short-term improvements were difficult at his level, he did not cultivate. However, Andrius meditated every day to calm his mind and clear his thoughts.Soon, three months passed.Sensing the increasingly intense presence of the tribulation, Andrius did not hide anymore and removed the effect of the Primordial Unity Pearl that was concealing his aura.Whoosh...An immense power surged forth, and massive tribulation clouds soon formed in the sky.At that moment, Andrius sat on top of a desolate mountain.A large crowd had gathered in the distance.It had been many years since anyone in the Immortal Realm had attempted the divine tribulation. Furthermore, Andrius had deliberately invited many people to witness the event to broaden the influence of the Lunarius Alliance.“Hiss... As expected of
Andrius chuckled. “It’s not that serious. I already have a plan.”“Tell me, Andy.”“I have an extraordinary treasure. The treasure itself contains its own independent space filled with countless treasures and living beings. Furthermore, the spiritual energy inside is ten, a hundred times richer than the outside world. I plan to entrust this treasure to you. Carve out a secluded area within it for Luna to recover.”Andrius slowly explained.The extraordinary treasure he spoke of was none other than the Immortal Demon Palace.With his current strength, crossing the divine tribulation would not be a problem.The Immortal Demon Palace was an independent realm constructed by the beings of the Divine Realm. Even figures like Cedric, the Blood Demon King, the Hidden Monarch, and the others had no choice but to follow its rules.Hiding Luna inside would ensure her safety.Of course, there was a small problem. If Andrius perished in the Divine Realm, as the owner of the Immortal Demon P
It was as if the dragon soul had always been part of his body.“How strange...”Andrius muttered to himself and continued to observe.Nothing happened.The dragon soul quickly integrated into his own without any further events.It only gave Andrius a vague sense of completeness, like something had filled a gap within him.It was a mysterious and eerie feeling.Swoosh...After the dragon soul left, the massive dragon bones collapsed, turning into a pile of white ash on the ground.It was clear that the dragon bones were preserved until now solely because of the dragon soul’s presence.“Forget it.”Seeing that the matter was settled, Andrius did not dwell on it.After glancing around and finding nothing unusual, he steadied himself, walked outside, and began thinking about his next move.“Andy!”“Wolf King!”“Andrius!”As soon as they saw Andrius, Noir, Halle, Kate, and the others rushed to him.While Andrius was absorbing the dragon soul, Noir had filled them in on the
Whoosh...Just as Andrius sent a wisp of his divine sense to investigate, an apparition suddenly emerged from the dragon bones.It was vague and ethereal, yet exuded a powerful aura.Gradually, it took the shape of a dragon.Andrius raised his brows. He was not surprised, though, let alone afraid.He looked at the dragon apparition, who looked back at him.Soon, the dragon apparition spoke in confusion, “Young man, I smell an extraordinary aura on you.”Smell...Many thoughts flashed through Andrius’ mind.What could a dragon find extraordinary? Perhaps it was the scent of the Divine Realm or the Void Thunder Dragon. Could it be the Divine Realm phoenix?The next second, the dragon asked, “Are you a descendant of the phoenix?”Andrius casually raised his hand, and a wisp of flame appeared at his fingertips. It was the phoenix’s true flame.“I knew it!”The dragon apparition trembled slightly.Then, its enormous eyes showed a trace of sorrow.Andrius frowned, sensing some
The remaining power of Andrius’ punch slammed into the man’s head viciously, like a hammer smashing a watermelon, splattering everywhere.“Hiss—”The captured cultivators could not help but gasp.Wow.Who was this guy? He was able to kill a mid-stage Aureate Immortal in just a single punch. Was he even human?Even Halle, Kate, and the others were dumbfounded.It had not been long since they last saw him, but he had already grown to be this powerful. It was completely unbelievable.The members of Dragon Immortal Sect were shocked and terrified.He was too strong!Even the sect leader was killed in one punch. They would be serving themselves up on a silver platter.At that moment, everyone kneeled.“Please have mercy!”“Please spare us.”It was the sect leader who ordered us to do this...”They groveled repeatedly, banging their heads until they bled. Though they did not dare stop.What was begging as long as they could live?However, Andrius’ words threw them into despai
“Andrius!”“Wolf King!”The group was instantly overjoyed when they saw Andrius.They soon snapped back to their senses, though. This was the heart of Dragon Immortal Sect, and they were in the middle of a sacrificial ceremony.“Run!”“Andrius, leave now. Don’t worry about us!”“That’s right. Just avenge us later!”They knew Andrius was strong, but they did not know how strong.After all, Dragon Immortal Sect was a powerful sect, and the sect leader and Grand Elder were all gathered in the hall.No matter how powerful Andrius was, he could not face off against so many opponents.Andrius could not help but laugh.However, before he could explain, Noir said solemnly, “Don’t worry. With Andy’s current strength, wiping them out will be as easy as slaughtering chickens.”Halle, Kate, and the others were stunned.Noir was extremely confident. Could Andrius have really become a great power in the Immortal Realm?While they were still in doubt...“It’s him!”The disciples immed
“It’s not a shame. As long as we awaken the true dragon’s soul, we can get any woman we want in the future.”“But it’s hard to find one that’s as beautiful and graceful...”The disciples drooled and spoke lewdly, but their actions were swift. They quickly restrained Halle and the others.Of course, they were not the only sacrifices.There were many other cultivators, even some powerful fiends and Demon Kings.“Let’s start!”In the center of the altar, Bernard saw that everyone was in place and gave the order.“Understood!”Everyone started to move.The disciples restrained Halle and the others firmly.The 108 core and elite disciples began channeling immortal essence, feeding it into Bernard’s body.In an instant, Bernard grew into a towering figure like a giant.It was one of his techniques.As he continuously chanted, the dragon bones in the center of the altar trembled slightly.It was clear he was trying to awaken the dragon.“No, I don’t want to die.”“You beasts!
