Chapter 192: The Great Temptation: The Godly Legacy
In the Soul Beast camp.
Led by Gu Yue Na, the fierce beasts all looked at the half-golden small tower, each of them clearly aware that this power was indeed the power of the gods.
This power made them all think alike, and they all believed that this wasn't just half a tower, but a broken divine artifact.
The golden lines flowing across the tower's body seemed to pulsate like a living being. Every glow exuded an ancient aura, as if the world had just been born, and even the surrounding space rippled faintly due to this power.
"Master, is this small tower half of a divine artifact?"
At this moment, Di Tian, trying to confirm, turned his head to look at Gu Yue Na.
His black long hair shimmered in the light, and his dragon claws instinctively gripped the armrest of the chair, his knuckles turning pale from the pressure.
After all, their understanding of such matters was limited.
The fact that Star Auction Pavilion's final auction item was something related to the gods confirmed that there were definitely true god-level powerhouses behind Star Auction Pavilion.
Otherwise, they would never have been able to bring out a divine artifact.
Even if it was just a broken divine artifact, it was still exceedingly rare.
One must know that in the recorded history of Douluo Continent, the appearance of complete divine artifacts was extremely rare, let alone this fragment of a divine artifact that contained the original godly power.
"It shouldn't be."
Gu Yue Na's voice was cool like jade, and she gently brushed through the air in front of her. A faint silver long spear flickered in her palm and disappeared.
"This golden small tower is indeed a divine artifact, but the most peculiar thing is that within the tower, there is a powerful force, though it is sealed by the artifact itself. I can't sense exactly what this power is."
Her brows furrowed slightly, and her spiritual sense reached out like a spider's web towards the auction table, but when it touched the tower, it was repelled by an invisible barrier.
The power within the barrier, containing rules, made even her, a semi-divine king, feel a tinge of fear.
She had the distinct feeling that this tower wasn't simply an artifact. The sealed power deep within it seemed to hold something far stronger.
"This thing's aura is very similar to the golden trident that Tang San wielded before. Looks like this tower really is half of a divine artifact. Should we go for it?"
Niu Tian of Haotian Sect stared at the half tower on the auction stage, voicing his thoughts.
The Haotian Hammer pendant hanging from his waist trembled lightly. It was the token that Tang San had given to the Haotian Sect in the past, and it was now subtly resonating with the aura of the small tower.
They often communicated with Tang San and could feel this power that surpassed the mortal limits.
Now, the Haotian Sect couldn't contact Tang San, and Douluo Continent had undergone major changes. Wang Dong hadn't grown up yet, and if they could acquire this divine artifact, the safety of Haotian Sect and everyone else would be more secure.
Thinking about this, he subconsciously touched the communication soul tool hidden in his sleeve, ready to mobilize the sect's hidden forces.
"We can make a move, but we need to be prepared."
"As the finale auction item and one related to the gods, other forces definitely won't easily give it up."
"Though Haotian Sect has accumulated quite a bit of Gold Soul Coins over the past tens of thousands of years, some were consumed in the Star Treasure Vault, so it will be somewhat difficult to compete against other forces from here on."
Titan spoke seriously, as no one knew what trump cards the other forces might have.
"No worries, let's do our best. If we can get this divine artifact, it will help us safeguard Haotian Sect and Dong'er's safety."
The leader, Niu Tian, tightened his fist, and tiny bursts of soul power popped from his knuckles.
The group waited for the final auction item to start, the air filled with the tense feeling of impending chaos, like the calm before a storm.
The top forces present no longer hesitated. After all, this item was related to the gods, and if they could gain any insight from it, they might touch upon the legendary realm and become true gods.
Such temptation was something no soul master on Douluo Continent could resist.
They also anticipated that the upcoming competition would be fiercer than ever, uncertain of which force would win the final item, and what the final price would be. Everything was filled with uncertainty.
Seeing the eager expressions of the many soul masters in the room, Jiang Li knew the time had come to introduce the golden small tower.
"I believe everyone has already guessed the identity of the final auction item. As you expected, this small tower is a true divine artifact, though for some unknown reason, it is broken, leaving only half of the tower body."
"It is called the 'Zhen Tian Divine Tower,' a divine artifact with strong control abilities. Even just half of it, its power is unimaginable."
As Jiang Li's voice sounded, he infused soul power into the auction stage. A light column shot straight up into the sky.
The half tower floated at the center of the light column, its golden patterns suddenly bursting with dazzling light, causing the air in the entire auction hall to freeze.
"This Zhen Tian Divine Tower not only has strong restraining powers but also formidable offensive and defensive capabilities. It can be said to be an all-around divine artifact."
Jiang Li slowly outlined the details of the auction item. His voice, amplified by the soul guide, spread across the entire room. Every word felt like a hammer pounding on everyone's heart.
After hearing this, it was as they had guessed. This was indeed a divine artifact, and learning that it had comprehensive abilities such as control, offense, and defense made everyone even more eager to acquire it.
Such a comprehensive divine artifact was extremely rare in Douluo Continent.
Some soul masters couldn't help but release their martial souls to test it, only to see a defensive barrier ripple across the surface of the tower. All attacks disappeared as if they had fallen into the sea.
"Zhen Tian Divine Tower? I don't think there was such a divine artifact in the Divine Realm before. Could it be newly discovered? But the aura of this small tower seems to have existed for a long time."
Gu Yue Na was puzzled when she heard this. She lightly touched her brow and quickly searched through the ancient records of the Divine Realm in her mind.
She felt that this tower had existed for at least tens of thousands of years, and such a comprehensive divine artifact should not be unknown in the Divine Realm.
When the Soul Beasts ruled the Divine Realm, she never heard of it, which made her even more curious if this divine artifact came from outside the Divine Realm.
"Master, are you saying this half of a divine artifact could come from a world outside the Douluo Divine Realm?"
Di Tian also looked confused, asking Gu Yue Na.
If this divine artifact came from another world, it meant that there were even greater worlds beyond Douluo Continent, and the hidden dangers behind it were likely beyond imagination.
"I'm not sure, but based on the introduction from Star Auction Pavilion and the long-standing aura from this tower, it's highly likely it comes from another powerful world."
Gu Yue Na suppressed her doubts and prepared to listen to Jiang Li's next introduction.
She always felt that this tower wasn't just a divine artifact; there was likely an even greater surprise hidden within.
Her spiritual sense once again reached out. This time, it didn't probe but formed a silver thread.
Carefully, it slipped into the gap in the tower's body. The moment it touched the internal power, she felt an overwhelming will, vast as a starry sea. The rules contained within it made her soul tremble.
"In fact, if it were just half of a divine artifact, it might not fully explain its rarity. The main point is that within this artifact is a legacy—a true god-level powerhouse's legacy."
Jiang Li said slowly.
