The silver thunder seal was only the size of a palm, floating quietly in Mo Qing's hand.

The silver dragon coiled atop the seal flickered with an aura of lightning. From its open dragon mouth, a powerful and baleful energy radiated, causing the surrounding space to solidify.

At this moment, every gaze in the auction house was fixed on the silver Thunder Dragon Seal. Their eyes burned with greed, their fervent stares seemingly intense enough to melt the seal itself.

"Oh, so this is a divine artifact…?"

Mo Yu's gaze also lingered on the silver Thunder Dragon Seal, his eyes narrowing slightly. From the seal, he could detect an extremely subtle yet immense wave of energy.

That kind of fluctuation was far beyond any spirit artifact!

"Hmm, this doesn't seem to be an ordinary divine artifact. It feels more like… a Primordial Ominous Artifact…" At this moment, Wind Emperor's voice echoed in Mo Yu's mind.

"Primordial Ominous Artifact?"

Hearing this, Mo Yu was momentarily stunned before he asked, "If it's truly a Primordial Ominous Artifact, then why is it being auctioned here?"

"I'm not entirely sure, but this item seems to be incomplete. It doesn't appear to be whole. After all, Primordial Ominous Artifacts were once renowned divine artifacts from ancient times. Only after experiencing countless battles and slaughter did they evolve into fiend artifacts. So, some degree of damage is normal," Wind Emperor explained.

Upon hearing this, Mo Yu's eyes narrowed slightly. That being the case, his interest was piqued. Just the reputation of a Primordial Ominous Artifact alone made it worth acquiring, let alone the fact that this one was incomplete. If he could restore it, its power would undoubtedly be formidable.

"Baleful Thunder Dragon Seal, an unidentified divine artifact. However, those with keen eyes may have already noticed something—it is indeed an incomplete Primordial Ominous Artifact. Therefore, the starting price for the auction is 150,000 drops of Supreme Spirit Liquid."

Mo Qing shifted his gaze from the silver Thunder Dragon Seal in his hand to the vast auction hall below. After a slight pause, he spoke indifferently.

150,000 Supreme Spirit Liquid was an extraordinarily high price, yet no one in the auction house found it surprising. A divine artifact was certainly worth such a sum.

Moreover, this Baleful Thunder Dragon Seal didn't seem like an ordinary divine artifact, which further heightened people's interest.

"150,000, huh…" Mo Yu murmured. This price wasn't particularly high, but after several rounds of bidding, it would surely skyrocket.

Of course, for Mo Yu, this was just a trivial amount.

With his current wealth, he was no less affluent than a powerful sect.

As Mo Qing's voice fell, the auction house burst into action. Although the price of this Primordial Ominous Artifact was intimidating, the bidding war was even fiercer than before.

Many of the major powers who had been holding back earlier were now making their moves.

For a while, deep voices calling out bids echoed continuously, and the ever-rising price left countless spectators envious and covetous.

In just a few minutes, the price of the Baleful Thunder Dragon Seal had nearly doubled—approaching 300,000 drops of Supreme Spirit Liquid!

The bidding war for the Baleful Thunder Dragon Seal raged on for more than ten minutes before finally nearing its end. The final price reached 680,000 drops of Supreme Spirit Liquid before the auction concluded.

The winning bidder was none other than Yu Wang of the Sky Profound Sect.

This outcome left Mo Yu slightly surprised, and his gaze flickered before he suddenly stopped bidding.

After all, wasn't Yu Wang planning to ambush him to seize the Everlasting Holy Spirit Fruit and Undying Corpse Essence? In that case, Mo Yu figured he might as well wait for the enemy to come to him—then counterattack and rob them instead.

He was certainly wealthy, but if he could save a few hundred thousand Supreme Spirit Liquid, why not?

On the auction stage, Mo Qing noticed that Mo Yu had remained silent throughout. A hint of disappointment flashed in his eyes, but under Yu Wang's urging, he ultimately declared the final result.

Inside another private box, Enchantress Fairy glanced at the silent room across from her. A hint of doubt flickered in her enchanting eyes before she chuckled softly, "Looks like that person has already spent all of his Supreme Spirit Liquid…"

Hearing this, a sneer appeared on Yu Wang's plump face. "Hmph, just putting on airs. Besides, I'll let him hold onto those items for now, but in the end, they'll still end up in my hands."

As he spoke, a cold glint flickered in his narrowed eyes. Whatever he set his sights on, he had never failed to obtain.

After the auction concluded, Mo Yu went to collect his winnings, securing the items he had successfully bid for.

Inside a secure chamber for auctioned goods, Mo Yu held the Undying Corpse Essence and Everlasting Holy Spirit Fruit in his hands, a smile appearing on his lips.

With these two items, Wind Emperor's resurrection could finally begin. He would also fulfill his past promise from his time in the Dou Qi Continent.

As for the Heavenly Thunder Jade Marrow, Mo Yu was quite interested in it as well. If it could truly further enhance or even evolve his Heavenly Dharma Body, then one day, he might even be able to strengthen it to the level of the top five Supreme Dharma Bodies among the Ninety-Nine Ranks!

A flicker of anticipation surged in his heart.

After the auction, Mo Yu didn't immediately leave the Merchant City. Instead, he found a training inn and settled in temporarily.

With a major battle approaching, he needed to restore himself to peak condition.

The fatigue from his previous continuous travel clearly needed to be eliminated.

Inside the spacious guest room, Mo Yu sat cross-legged. After a while, his closed eyes suddenly snapped open.

"Someone is following me…"

"It should be someone sent by Yu Wang. The Sky Profound Sect has a branch in the Merchant Continent. While their influence here isn't particularly strong, tracking someone is well within their abilities," Wind Emperor said.

Mo Yu nodded slightly, then let out a cold laugh. "That guy really holds a grudge. Since that's the case, I'll just wait for him to walk into my trap."

Hearing this, Wind Emperor pondered for a moment before solemnly warning, "If you're going to make a move, you must end it quickly. The Sky Profound Sect is extremely powerful. Even among Greater Earthly Supremes at their peak, they have multiple members. Their overall strength far surpasses factions like the Blood God Clan."

"More importantly, their sect master is rumored to have already reached the threshold of a Heavenly Supreme. If that's true, even the major superpowers in the Great Thousand World would have to show him some respect."

"Oh? He's already touched upon the Heavenly Supreme realm?" Mo Yu's expression finally became a bit serious.

Heavenly Supreme—

In the Great Thousand World, these were the true pinnacle powerhouses. Any faction that possessed a Heavenly Supreme-level expert could immediately rank among the top-tier forces.

The sect master of Sky Profound Sect had actually touched upon the Heavenly Supreme level. Though he had not truly stepped into that realm, the Sky Profound Sect was already enough to rank among the ten supercontinents, reigning as the ruler of the southern region of the Skylaw Continent, dominating its territory.

"Don't worry, I won't actively provoke the Sky Profound Sect for now. Before I have sufficient strength, I will remain vigilant," Mo Yu said in a deep voice.

Hearing this, the Wind Emperor nodded slightly. The waters of the Great Thousand World were deep. Even though Mo Yu had gained significant advantages from the Blood God Clan before, he still could not afford to be careless.

After all, in terms of overall strength, the Blood God Clan could barely be considered presentable. Compared to the truly supreme powers, they were nothing more than slightly larger ants.

However, the Wind Emperor also knew that Mo Yu was someone who understood the importance of weighing situations. To have risen from the Dou Qi Continent to become the renowned Thunder Emperor, his intelligence and methods were not something ordinary people could compare to.

And just like that, the night passed in silence.

The next day, Mo Yu remained inactive. It was not until the sunset painted the sky that he quietly left the inn, merging into the bustling crowd before making his way out of the city.

As Mo Yu departed from the inn, in a pavilion within the city, a fat middle-aged man embracing a beautiful woman suddenly curved his lips into a cold sneer.

With a slight exertion of his right hand, a crisp crack resounded. The seductive maid in his embrace—her fair, slender neck—was instantly crushed by a terrifying force.

The beautiful maid's lifeless eyes, wide with disbelief, stared as the fat man slowly rose to his feet, his chilling gaze fixed in the direction of the city gates.

"What a naive fool. Do you really think you can slip through my fingers that easily?" The fat man sneered mockingly before space rippled around him. In an instant, his figure gradually faded into the air.

As Yu Wang departed, the room returned to silence, leaving only the lifeless beauty whose vitality had been entirely drained.

If Mo Yu had witnessed Yu Wang's actions, he would have liked to tell him one thing:

"When you gaze into the abyss, the abyss is also watching you."

Yu Wang believed Mo Yu couldn't escape his grasp, yet he had no idea that Mo Yu had already woven an intricate trap around him in the shadows.

The dim-red sunset hung low on the horizon, casting crimson hues across the land, carrying a faint chill in the air.

Whoosh!

Amidst the dusky sky, the sharp sound of something cutting through the wind suddenly echoed. A streak of flowing light tore across the heavens at astonishing speed, racing towards the distance.

A figure moved at full throttle, as if fleeing from pursuers behind.

This high-speed journey continued for nearly half an hour before finally slowing down. Mo Yu landed atop a mountain peak.

Raising his head, Mo Yu glanced at the sky behind him and suddenly chuckled. "You've been lurking around sneakily for half the day. Aren't you tired?"

"Heh, so you noticed after all."

As Mo Yu's mocking voice fell, a greasy, nauseating voice echoed across the heavens and earth. The space atop a distant mountain peak twisted slightly before a fat figure ghosted into appearance.

It was none other than Yu Wang.

He looked at Mo Yu with amusement before surveying the surroundings. "You've picked quite the burial site for yourself."

"Who said this place isn't meant for you?" Mo Yu smiled, but within his silver eyes, bolts of lightning began to converge.

"You sure have confidence."

Yu Wang's eyes narrowed into slits, his face squeezing into a hideous expression resembling a shriveled flower. He let out a revolting grin.

"If you think having some background gives you confidence, you're sorely mistaken. I, Yu Wang, never care for such things."

As his voice faded, Yu Wang noticed Mo Yu's sharp and icy features. He paused for a moment before suddenly displaying an interested look. A fiery glint flickered in his eyes as he licked his lips.

"Hand over the Everlasting Holy Spirit Fruit and Undying Corpse Essence, and if your service satisfies me, I might just let you go. It's been a long time since I've tasted such an exquisite man."

Hearing this, Mo Yu was momentarily stunned. Then, as he understood the implications, his expression instantly darkened.

This bastard… was actually a pervert!

"You're seeking death!"

Mo Yu, always as calm as a deep thunderous abyss, had rare anger flashing in his eyes.

This disgusting scum had truly taken depravity to its peak!

Seeing Mo Yu's blatant rejection, the fiery desire in Yu Wang's eyes finally began to cool. His face turned expressionless as he said coldly, "You've just given up your only chance."

"You sure talk a lot. Hurry up and say your last words—because soon, you won't even be able to speak." Mo Yu's gaze turned murderous.

This filth would pay a steep price for his words!

Seeing Mo Yu's biting sarcasm, Yu Wang's fat face twisted, exuding a bone-chilling aura.

Boom!

A terrifying storm of spiritual energy suddenly erupted from his body. The black energy howled like a raging tempest, filling the sky with an apocalyptic dread.

The massive mountain beneath Yu Wang's feet shattered instantly under the crushing spiritual pressure, reduced to drifting dust and debris.

Just the mere suppression of his spiritual power was enough to obliterate a mountain. The might of a Lesser Earthly Supreme was fully displayed.

Mo Yu watched this scene with an eerily calm expression.

A mere Lesser Earthly Supreme… not worth taking seriously.

In a flash, an equally vast surge of spiritual energy erupted from Mo Yu's body like a raging storm.

At that moment, the spiritual pressure Yu Wang had unleashed was completely and utterly dissipated.

"No wonder you're so confident… So you're also a Lesser Earthly Supreme."

Yu Wang's gaze bore into Mo Yu as he sensed the latter's aura, his voice growing heavy.

He had not been mistaken. This man… was far from ordinary.

Which only meant—he must be eradicated immediately!

"Unfortunately, even though you're an Earthly Supreme, you'll still die at my hands today." Yu Wang took a deep breath before stomping down, his expression turning ferocious.

Boom!

A boundless spiritual energy storm surged skyward, blotting out the sun. The black energy converged madly around Yu Wang, ultimately forming a thousand-meter-tall, pitch-black maw.

A terrifying suction force erupted from within, devouring everything within a radius of ten thousand miles.

"Taotie Dharma Body!"
