“Forget it. It’s fine if it’s slow for me to level up. At least I can still level up. It’s better than making no progress.”

Ye Xuan consoled himself. After all, he had been in the human rank level 2 for too long, and he had trained his heart to be strong.

The Hetu and Luoshu Diagram in front of him was only an incomplete part, but it already had such magical power. If he could gather all of them, he might really be able to find the secret of immortal ascension.

Perhaps he could even figure out what the so-called ‘curse’ was, but it wouldn’t be that easy.

After all, the Hetu and Luoshu Diagram had been lost for so many years, and no one had ever heard of such a thing before. Now that it had reappeared, it was in such a damaged state. Perhaps there was some unknown reason behind this.

For a few days, Ye Xuan tried to understand the secrets of the Hetu and Luoshu Diagram, but he found nothing.

He didn’t know if it was because of the curse, or if it was damaged, but he had no clue.

“If it was so easy to understand, it wouldn’t be called the Hetu and Luoshu Diagram.”

From ancient times until now, no one had been able to understand its secret. Ye Xuan didn’t force it and put it aside for the time being, thinking that perhaps the time wasn’t right.

He fumbled with the Hetu and Luoshu Diagram, and white light overflowed from the center of his palm, corresponding to the many constellations in the sky.

Other than the first time he opened the Hetu and Luoshu Diagram and saw the white dragon, Ye Xuan didn’t see it again the next few times. The Milky Way was just an ordinary Milky Way as if everything that had happened before was just his illusion.

The Hetu and Luoshu Diagram was used to help him with his cultivation, but nothing else.

“That’s strange. I could clearly feel that the dragon was related to the Hetu and Luoshu Diagram, but why don’t I see it anymore? ”

Ye Xuan was bewildered. He looked around, wishing he could take a magnifying glass, but he couldn’t find a hint of the dragon’s presence at all.

Ye Xuan, who had buried himself in cultivation, did not know that the entire capital had fallen into a frenzy because of the appearance of the Hetu and Luoshu Diagram.

The sects participating in the Jingdu auction were all famous figures. Although the order was to seal off the news, there were so many sects. It was inevitable that there would be too many people knowing about it, causing the news to leak outside.

Soon, everyone knew about the appearance of the Hetu and Luoshu Diagram.

It could be said that a stone caused a thousand ripples, and everyone was agitated.

After all, the Hetu and Luoshu Diagram was very famous. There were countless rumors about it, and the most famous one was that it contained the secret of the immortal ascension.

There were even people who said that once one could comprehend it, they would be able to ascend immediately, and later on, they would become more and more magical. Although the rumors could not be believed, they were somewhat certain about the immortal ascension.

Everyone knew how magical the Hetu and Luoshu Diagram was. Even the seven great sects wanted to get their hands on it. What was as famous as it was the sky-high price it commanded.

“Even divine objects like the Hetu and Luoshu Diagram have appeared. It’s a pity that I don’t have the qualifications to see it.”

“800,000 supreme-grade spirit stones? How crazy is that? The one that got this item must be a walking supreme-grade spirit stone mine. Even all the supreme-grade spirit stones of the seven great sects added together can’t make up this amount.”

“I thought supreme-grade spiritual stones were rare. How did he get so many? I heard that he doesn’t belong to any of the seven great sects.”

“What? If he wasn’t in one of the seven great sects, then what was his background? Could it be that there’s a power that’s even more powerful than the Yaochi Holy Land and the Misty Illusory Manor?”

“I was there at the scene. The expressions of the people from the seven great sects were extremely ugly. Now, they are offering a large sum of money for clues related to the Hetu and Luoshu Diagram. Once someone provides useful information, they can become inner disciples of the sect!”

Everyone was talking about the Hetu and Luoshu Diagram, as well as the mysterious man who had bid 800,000 supreme-grade spirit stones.

The people from the seven great sects even offered generous conditions, such as top-grade cultivation techniques, spirit pills, magic tools, and so on, which made many people eager to take action.

It was a pity that the person who bought the Hetu and Luoshu Diagram was extremely mysterious. No one knew his identity, and no one had even seen what he looked like.

“Other than the people of the Jingdu auction house, I’m afraid no one else knows about this mysterious person. However, the Jingdu auction house can not reveal the privacy and information of their guests.”

“That’s hard to say. After all, they are the seven great sects. If they join forces to pressure the auction house, how long can the auction house last?”

“Then there’s going to be a good show to watch. The capital will be very lively this year. The sect returning ceremony has not even started and this has already happened.”

There was no doubt about the strength of the seven great sects. They were determined to get the Hetu and Luoshu Diagram, but the background of the Jingdu auction house was not simple. Otherwise, how could it have developed to such a scale? It was said that there was a mysterious and powerful force supporting it.

In the past, there had been people who had come to find trouble or threatened and tried to bribe the auction house, wanting to inquire about the whereabouts of the auctioned treasures. Unfortunately, the outcomes had all been very miserable, and even a large sect had been destroyed.

The reputation of the Jingdu auction house had also been established, and everyone knew that this was an iron plate that could not be kicked. Someone commented, “If the two sides were to go against each other, I don’t know how things would develop.”

“So what if the Jingdu auction house has a great background? Can it compare to the seven great sects? I think they won’t be able to withstand the pressure sooner or later.”

Before the seven great sects could join forces to look for them, the Jingdu auction house had become an empty shell.

To be more precise, the people inside had disappeared into thin air, as if they had evaporated from the world. From the manager to the cleaning manservants, not even a ghost could be seen, let alone a person.

The huge building was clearly filled with guests yesterday, but now it was terrifyingly silent, filled with an inexplicable depression and strangeness.

The Misty Illusory Manor, Yaochi Holy Land, Heaven Sect, and other sects who had rushed over upon hearing the news were completely dumbfounded.

Where did all the people in the Jingdu auction house go?
