Invincibility Begins with a Super Fairy Manny

Chapter 2867: Chapter 2868: Strange Rock

Very soon, the door opened.

Han Bao extended his hand forward and said eagerly, ”Please, senior!”

This was actually also a kind of test.

If Xue An didn’t have the courage to enter first, then his persona as an arrogant and powerful figure would crumble.

Of course, Xue An could see through Han Bao’s little schemes, so he merely gave a cold laugh and then walked ahead with his head held high.

As he crossed the threshold and entered the building, his eyes widened in surprise.

A luxuriously and meticulously decorated hall appeared before him.

Moreover, the size of this hall was much larger than the small building they saw from the outside.

No need to ask, spatial magic must have been used here to encompass vastness within a tiny space.

But that was not the most important thing; the key point was that the hall was bustling with activity at the moment.

Everywhere were shadowy figures, many of whom emitted an intimidatingly powerful aura.

”Now you can be reassured, senior!”

Came Han Bao’s voice from behind.

Xue An snorted coldly, ”Seems somewhat reliable, just not sure if there will be any treasures in the auction later to astonish me!”

”You can rest assured, senior, we guarantee you a big surprise!”

Han Bo eagerly ushered Xue An to sit down, then excused himself and went off to tend to other matters.

After he left, Shu Jingchu couldn’t help but lean in to whisper in Xue An’s ear.

”What on earth are you up to? Weren’t we heading to the Treasure Pavilion? Why did we suddenly come to this auction? Could it be that there are pieces of The Celestial Mirror here?”

Shu Jingchu didn’t believe such top-tier artifacts would appear here.

”Of course, it won’t be that simple. I’ve just vaguely caught a lead, but whether it’s true or not needs further verification, so I can’t tell you just yet!”

”Hmph, always being so mysterious!” Shu Jingchu complained a little, but then quickly thought of something and whispered a reminder.

”But I should warn you in advance: the Hundred Benevolence Store is no ordinary place. This auction, I’ve heard, is one of the largest in the Netherworld Ghost Market, showing how powerful the backing of the Hundred Benevolence Store is. If you’re planning to do anything, you’d better consider carefully!”

”Don’t worry, I’m here to buy things, not to cause trouble. Their powerful backing has nothing to do with me,” Xue An laughed.

”That’s good then!”

”But what exactly does the Hundred Benevolence Store sell to have such a strong network?”

”Did you see those twin beauties at the door? The Hundred Benevolence Store doesn’t just hunt rare female groups across The Multiverse for profit, but also deals in all sorts of strange businesses. Just as Han Bao said, there’s nothing they can’t sell, only things you can’t think of!”

”Sounds impressive!”

”Impressive? It’s incredibly powerful! Oh, by the way, your newbie protection mist’s concealment effect only lasts for an hour, and it’s about to expire now!”

”Then what should I do?”

Xue An was actually pondering this matter too.

Initially, he only planned to drop by the Treasure Pavilion with Shu Jingchu to get a spot, for which an hour was more than enough.

But now, with things changing halfway and arriving at the Hundred Benevolence Store, time was running short.

”Hehe, turns out you have times when you don’t know what to do too!”

In Xue An’s mind, Shu Jingchu’s extremely smug laughter echoed.

”Beg me, and I might tell you what to do!”

”Forget it, let the mist dissipate if it will. Not many people know me anyway, and if anyone asks, I’ll just say I’m from the Palace of Light!” Xue An said lightly.

”No!” Shu Jingchu immediately protested.

”Why not?”

”Of course, you finish your business and leave, but what about me?” Shu Jingchu argued.

”But what can I do? After all, I don’t know what to do next!”

”You... sigh, I really surrender to you! It was just a joke, was it necessary?”

As she spoke, a trading panel appeared before Xue An, displaying a series of numbers representing finances.

”Just click confirm, I’ll lend you some money first to renew, just remember this is a loan, you need to pay it back!” Shu Jingchu emphasized.

It really feels more and more like a game!

With this thought flashing by, Xue An clicked confirm.

In an instant, a line of resources flowed into Xue An’s body.

This feeling was quite mysterious, nothing seemed to change, yet Xue An could feel the existence of these resources.

Then, a renewal payment option appeared in front of the mist.

After resolving everything.

Han Bao returned, smiling brightly, holding a number plate in his hand.

”Senior, since it’s your first time attending the auction, and we didn’t have your identity information before, I’ve temporarily requested a number plate for you; later during the auction, you can just use this!”

”Okay!”

Xue An took the number plate, sounding a bit impatient, ”When the hell is this blasted auction going to start?”

”Calm down, senior, it’s about to begin! Moreover, it’s going to start with a bang!” Han Bao said, winking.

As soon as he finished speaking, the sound of a brass gong echoed from the auction platform, and the venue instantly fell silent.

Then, an elderly man with snow-white hair and a vigorous step walked onto the platform.

The old man was no spring chicken, but his face was rosy and his vital energy was extremely abundant.

As soon as he took the stage, he laughed heartily, ”Sorry for keeping everyone waiting, just some folks who just returned from outside, causing a slight delay. Without further ado, the auction officially begins! Bring it up!”

As soon as he finished speaking, heavy footsteps could be heard from the stage, and it wasn’t just one person, but a whole team.

Indeed.

About a dozen robust men, shirtless, were strenuously carrying something onto the stage.

Each step left a deep imprint on the ground, indicating the weight of the object.

The curiosity of everyone present was piqued, but unfortunately, the object was covered by black cloth, making it impossible to see through, leaving them straining their necks to look ahead.

Thud!

When the strong men reached the center of the venue, they looked exhausted as they set down the thing on their shoulders.

It was more like a drop than a set-down.

Thus came a booming crash that caused the entire hall to shudder.

”What the hell is so heavy?”

”Exactly, those dozen robust men are body cultivation experts, and even they are worn out like this. Just what is this thing?”

People murmured and gossiped.

The elder on the stage laughed heartily, ”Ladies and gentlemen, today’s auction is truly unprecedented. Without saying much, this first lot alone would usually be the finale!”

”No more words, unveil it!”

As his words fell, the black cloth was pulled off, revealing underneath a dark, iron-like peculiar stone.
