Chapter 621: Chapter 53 Snow Emperor Crisis, Xu Jiawei's Scheme_1
"The Snow Emperor is the king of the far northern lands, with nearly seven hundred thousand years of cultivation. Who could capture her?"
"Also, when a soul beast reaches a cultivation level of a hundred thousand years, there are only two paths to take , to transform into a human or to continue cultivating as a soul beast. Once reaching two hundred thousand years and becoming a ferocious beast, there's no longer any choice."
Inside Qin Xiao's spiritual world, the Ice Emperor patiently explained to him.
He did not say much else, but went straight to the point, "Although separated by a screen, an intuition tells me that the soul beast on the Divine Seal Altar is related to you—and deeply so. Prepare yourself."
"Really related to me?"
The Ice Emperor was stunned.
For a moment, she was at a loss for words, her mind in turmoil.
Meanwhile.
Xu Jiujiu felt that she had kept everyone in suspense long enough. If she didn't speak up soon, the distinguished guests might become impatient.
"I'm sure all our distinguished guests are curious, what exactly is this stream of air that requires the containment of a ninth-grade soul guidance device?
Well, Jiu Jiu won't keep you in the dark any longer. This stream of air that you see is actually a hundred-thousand-year soul beast who, upon reaching its bottleneck for transformation into a human, was captured and imprisoned by a great entity within this Level 9 Soul Guidance Device Divine Platform. In a certain sense, this stream of air can be considered the unformed embryo of a soul beast undergoing re-cultivation to become human."
A soul beast re-cultivating into a human!
An embryo of a hundred thousand years!
Upon hearing Jiu Jiu's words, all the guests in the private rooms showed looks of shock.
There were no ordinary people in attendance today.
They all knew what an embryo of a hundred thousand years meant!
This was a hundred-thousand-year soul ring and soul bone!
The dream of countless Soul Masters.
No wonder Her Highness Princess Jiujiu would don a golden auctioneer's outfit.
Such rare treasures could indeed be worth over a billion!
However.
No sooner had the guests accepted this fact than Xu Jiujiu dropped another bombshell.
With a slight smile, Xu Jiujiu said, "Distinguished guests, there's something even more surprising coming up. According to the great entity from the Sun-Moon Empire who provided us with this embryo, when this hundred-thousand-year soul beast was fixed in this state, its memory was also sealed. It's very likely to grant the absorber a Martial Soul.
Although this means losing the soul ring and soul bone, isn't a Martial Soul capable of absorbing nine soul rings even more worthwhile?"
...
"Goodness, a hundred-thousand-year soul ring and soul bone are one thing. But this could actually grant someone Twin Martial Souls?"
"Worth it, truly worth it!"
From private room number six, Jing Hongchen couldn't help but utter a sigh of amazement.
As for Elder Ma, Xiao Hongchen, Meng Hongchen, Lin Xi, they were all numb.
Did I hear that right?
A man-made Twin Martial Soul?
Even if there was only a small chance of this happening, the prospect was incredibly alluring.
If what Xu Jiujiu said came true, then the price of this hundred-thousand-year soul beast embryo would definitely exceed a billion golden soul coins.
"Looks like there's no need for me to exaggerate. Jing Hongchen is already tempted by this thing..."
Qin Xiao's eyes flashed as he felt confident about this turn of events.
Of course.
He wasn't naive enough to think that Jing Hongchen would just hand over the Snow Emperor to him.
After all, even investments have their limits, right?
Qin Xiao was, after all, an outsider with the surname Qin.
'Keep the best for oneself'—Jing Hongchen should understand this principle as well.
But...
Aside from Qin Xiao, could anyone else handle it?
"Anyhow, there's also the matter of the Body Sect ambushing Mingde Hall to consider. I'll just wait for the opportunity," he thought.
That's right, Qin Xiao had no intention of telling Jing Hongchen about the situation with Mingde Hall.
Firstly, who knew when Mingde Hall would come?
Secondly, how could he prove the accuracy of the information?
Thirdly, what was the source of the news?
If Qin Xiao disclosed these things, wouldn't that make his identity suspicious?
If not careful, he might put himself in danger.
Beyond that, there was a fourth consideration: if Mingde Hall was prepared and the Body Sect's attack failed, where would he get the Snow Emperor?
Surely he couldn't just seize it by force?
Well, it wasn't impossible... but he didn't have the strength to do so right now.
In Qin Xiao's Spirit Sea, the Ice Emperor snorted, "Hmph, naive humans, do they really think a soul beast with its own will is so easily absorbed and integrated?"
The Skydream Ice Silkworm echoed, "Right, the spiritual impact from a hundred-thousand-year soul beast isn't so easily endured. At best severe injury, at worst, a vegetative state."
They were not being alarmist.
Indeed, that was the case.
At that moment, Xu Jiujiu also provided a gentle reminder, "Distinguished guests, we advise that only powerful beings with the strength of an eight-ringed Soul Douluo should attempt to integrate this soul bone.
Firstly, Soul Douluos have an extremely high mental strength and can withstand the impact of a hundred-thousand-year soul beast's will.
Secondly, if integration with the soul beast's will fails and the embryo dies, resulting in a soul ring and soul bone, their physical strength should be sufficient to absorb a hundred-thousand-year level."
"Now we'll give our distinguished guests a thirty-minute rest, a viewing period. After thirty minutes, our final grand auction will begin. This auction house allows transactions through collateral exchange. We will appraise the pledged items as fairly as possible. But converting to cash incurs a twenty percent handling fee. Don't miss this fleeting opportunity. This hundred-thousand-year soul beast turning human embryo could be said to be unprecedented and unlikely to appear again. With it, one can forge a supreme powerhouse. You surely don't want to miss this chance."
Clearly, the Starlight Auction House had also analyzed the problems seen by the Ice Emperor and the Skydream Ice Silkworm.
