"Perhaps there could be something useful here,"
Shen Yuan mused silently to himself.
Even the Donghua Emperor couldn’t withstand the suppression brought by the unique characteristics of this world, let alone the mere cultivators of the lower realm.
Currently, Shen Yuan had in his possession multiple Earthly Destroyer Divine Skills; if he could find the corresponding Divine Power Masters, he could fully utilize the information discrepancy to achieve certain objectives.
"For example, if I were to make the Discarnation Divine Power my own and return to this era, the Master of North Mang Mountain, as the holder of the Discarnation Divine Power, would inevitably be forced into slumber due to the unique characteristics of this multitude of worlds."
When that time comes, if I were to head to North Mang Mountain, I might be able to manipulate the numerous Ghost Immortals born within it with the help of the Discarnation Divine Power."
The more he thought about it, the brighter Shen Yuan’s eyes shone.
While Shen Yuan’s thoughts were floating, the beautiful auctioneer once again took out a treasure chest from the void.
As the treasure chest was slowly opened, what appeared before everyone was an empty blackness, as if the inside of the chest had become a black hole that devoured everything.
Many cultivators wore puzzled expressions, incredulous and uncertain, only the cultivators of various powerful factions seated atop the meteorites changed their expressions drastically, exclaiming aloud:
"Sky Devouring Stone!"
"How could the Multiverse Auction have such an Immortal Treasure?"
"Such a treasure, and the auction didn’t create any pre-auction hype?"
Shen Yuan’s gaze flickered slightly. He had never heard of the name Sky Devouring Stone, but judging by the posture of the cultivators from the various factions, this item seemed to have an extraordinary origin.
Noticing the confusion in Shen Yuan’s eyes, Ji Zhaoyang also suppressed her shock and explained to Shen Yuan:
"Fellow Taoist Shen might not be aware, this Sky Devouring Stone is not from our Primal Chaos Realm, but from the Upper World."
While saying this, Ji Zhaoyang stretched out her hand and pointed to the vast starry sky above.
"The Sky Devouring Stone was born in the ascension passages that connect the heavens to the Upper World, formed from the collision of the realm forces of the Upper World and the various heavens.
In the Upper World, the Sky Devouring Stone is powerful enough to provoke contentious scrambling among Earth Immortal powerful experts, because this remarkable stone possesses the ability to create grotto heavens!"
Upon hearing this, Shen Yuan immediately understood why the various forces were so astonished.
In this era of peak cultivation tens of thousands of years ago, it wasn’t too difficult for a power to develop to a certain point and create blessed land using Taoist artifacts or treasures of faith and destiny.
However, the concept of grotto heavens was entirely different. Inside a grotto heaven, with its own evolving heaven and earth, it’s almost equivalent to a small world. The master of the grotto heaven could even traverse the vastness of space freely, making it an absolute strategic treasure.
If a cultivator used the Sky Devouring Stone to open their own grotto heaven and took it as a foundation for cultivating the Earth Immortal Path, there would be a great chance for them to ascend to the Earth Immortal Realm in the future.
In the face of such an immortal treasure, whether it be the 10 Great Grotto Heavens Sacred Lands or the 36 Little Grotto Heavens, all would be tempted, for no one would think their foundation too strong.
But after understanding the value of the Sky Devouring Stone, Shen Yuan lost much of his interest.
He mastered Pot Heaven Divine Power and could open heavens with a talisman so easily that creating grotto heavens was a trivial matter for him, and he didn’t need this so-called Sky Devouring Stone at all.
"The Immortal Treasure Sky Devouring Stone from the Upper World can help a cultivator open a grotto heaven and achieve the position of its master!
The precious value of this item is self-evident, and I need not say more,"
"This item is being auctioned on behalf of a distinguished guest who contacted the Treasure Drop Mercantile Association mid-way through. Due to its priceless nature, its worth cannot be measured in ordinary spirit stones or immortal jade, so the esteemed guest will only trade it for various extraordinary treasures, feel free to start your bidding now,"
No sooner had the auctioneer finished speaking than a True Being from a grotto heavens power shouted out a bid.
"Class 8 rare material and earthly treasure, Nine Orifices Spirit Spring!"
"Just a Nine Orifices Spirit Spring to exchange for a Sky Devouring Stone? My Ten Directions Dao bids one high-quality Taoist artifact, the Sky Nether Mirror!"
"Maoshan Blessed Land offers three 6 Ding-6 Jia Divine Generals Talismans, which can summon Upper World divine generals to protect oneself."
One grotto heavens sacred land after another began bidding, and each bid mentioned treasures that caused an uproar among all the powerful factions.
Keep in mind that in the first half of the auction, only two Class 8 Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures appeared, and all the auctioned Taoist artifacts were, without exception, low or medium grade, which indicates the preciousness of these items.
And the 6 Ding-6 Jia Divine Generals Talisman, a treasure that could summon Upper World divine generals to protect oneself, was unheard of.
Whether it be Class 8 Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures, high-quality Taoist artifacts, or Divine Generals Talisman, all of them could serve as treasures that establish the foundation of a sect, and their value could not possibly be measured in ordinary immortal jade.
For some specific powers, these treasures might even be more precious than that Immortal Artifact Star-Shifting Banner.
Shen Yuan had no intention of getting involved, but the bids from the various factions were quite an eye-opener for him.
Shen Yuan’s approach caught Ji Zhaoyang by surprise.
In Ji Zhaoyang’s view, the Falling Clouds Sect, which Shen Yuan represented, was known for its connection with the yin energy channels of the current era and should be in even greater need of such a treasure as the Sky Devouring Stone to open grotto heavens.
"It seems Fellow Taoist Shen isn’t interested in this Sky Devouring Stone?"
Shen Yuan simply said indifferently, "I have a profound understanding of the Spatial Divine Power."
Ji Zhaoyang was taken aback and then chuckled, shaking her head: "I almost forgot about Fellow Taoist Shen’s Spatial Divine Power, capable of deceiving even Wealth True Monarch.
Once you, Fellow Taoist Shen, step into the Taoist Doyen Stage in the future, opening a grotto heaven won’t be difficult at all."
"Thinking about it that way, the Sky Devouring Stone really holds no value for you.
After all, apart from opening grotto heavens, the remaining value of the Sky Devouring Stone lies only in the hint of Supreme World Qi and the 10 Directions Universe Qi contained within it.
Even though the 10 Directions Universe Qi is among the top ranks within the Supreme World Qi, to refine that hint of 10 Directions Universe Qi using the Sky Devouring Stone would be an extravagant waste."
