Ancient Ancestral Emperor

C41 skeletal skeleton

When the coffin landed on the ground, everyone cast their gazes onto it ..

This coffin was not exactly the same as ordinary sarcophaguses. Although it was also carved out of stone, it seemed to have been hacked by countless blades. The marks of blades with varying depths could clearly be seen as well. It was as if someone had vented their anger on him.

Even so, the deepest slash was more than a foot deep. It was evident that it had not completely cut it.

From the looks of it, the construction of the coffin was quite deep and it was clearly not easy to break through its defense.

Everyone was curious about what was inside. After all, this weight was enough to show that it was extraordinary.

Only Qin Shaojie who was in the crowd narrowed his eyes into slits, and continued to size up the coffin, as if he wanted to see through it.

He kept saying it was impossible as he glanced around.

The moment the coffin appeared, he felt that this thing seemed to be similar to the peerless treasure he had seen in his previous life. However, after careful consideration, he felt that it was impossible for it to appear here.

Forget about the Exquisite Auction, even the Great Yan Dynasty and ancient sects did not have the qualifications to own it. Once this kind of heaven-defying treasure appeared, it would be enough to cause this Tian Yuan Continent to go crazy, so why would it appear in this kind of place?

It was a pity that the current Qin Shaojie had not been able to condense a consciousness and the remnant soul had not been repaired either. Otherwise, he could think of a way to inspect this thing to see if it was similar to what he had guessed.

If it really was that kind of thing, then the moment he thought of it, Qin Shaojie's breathing also became heavy. Back then, he had not even been able to obtain this treasure when he was at his peak, if not, Qin Shaojie would have been confident enough to escape such a dangerous situation, and not leave with only a single remnant of his soul.

"The ninth treasure is inside this sarcophagus."

Finally, Wen Ya spoke out once again. At this time, Qin Shaojie had also suppressed the doubt in his heart, but he secretly made a decision. He had to think of a way to obtain this coffin. No matter what, this thing was too similar to the treasure.

Everyone understood that there must be something extraordinary within the coffin. Everyone's gaze was cast over. Everyone was curious as to what exactly could cause the Exquisite Auction House to list it as the ninth treasure.

"Please open the door!"

Wen Ya slowly said as she nodded to the four muscular men.

After that, he saw the four big men take a deep breath, and their palms fiercely landed on the stone coffin. In an instant, the aura of their Genuine Force poured out of their bodies like a waterfall. The strength of the four Peak of Genuine Force Rankers was similar to knowing that even if a huge boulder was in front of them, it would only be weak like tofu.

However, when the eight palms landed on the sarcophagus, they did not destroy it. In fact, not even a single crack could be seen. Such a situation made many people feel uneasy. The sarcophagus had never thought that it would actually be so sturdy. The four Genuine Force Warriors had at least ten thousand kilograms of strength, but no one expected that they would still be unable to destroy it.

This also made them more curious about what was inside.

Four Genuine Force experts exerted their strength from four different corners of the sarcophagus at the same time. Under the pressure of the profound energy, the strong power became extremely violent and even the air became visibly disordered.

Due to overexertion, the four of them had blue veins bulging all over their bodies and beads of sweat continuously seeped down their foreheads. Following the clockwise direction, they simultaneously unleashed their strength, and after a couple of breaths, they finally saw the coffin lid tremble slightly.

As it trembled, it finally moved the coffin lid. However, it did not seem realistic to try and move it. The four Genuine Force experts also revealed a trace of bitterness and helplessness on their faces. It was not that they did not want to move it, but the coffin lid was too heavy and they could not do anything about it.

"Elder Chen, please help."

Seeing that, Wen Ya also bowed to an old man at the entrance of the auction house and said. This Elder Chen was a Three Spiritual Realms Ranker, so he immediately took a few steps, and his entire person seemed to have appeared out of thin air to stand by the side of the sarcophagus.

After that, he nodded towards the four Genuine Force Warriors and the five of them unleashed their powers at the same time.

With the addition of profound energy, the coffin lid finally moved even faster when the five of them were working together. Finally, the coffin lid had been opened and traces of the coffin lid had been revealed.

"What a powerful aura!"

However, in this moment, a powerful aura exploded out of the crack lines. When this aura appeared, it made everyone feel as if their blood was boiling and their souls were trembling. It was as if this aura despised everything and was supreme and respected.

With such an aura, even the Genuine Force experts were unable to resist. Especially the four Genuine Force experts who were closest to him. In the instant that aura appeared, they felt an enormous pressure directly envelop them, then they felt a sweet taste at their throats, and a mouthful of fresh blood sprayed out.

Fear filled the paleness of their faces. That aura was akin to ants, causing their bodies to tremble nonstop.

Even Elder Chen's expression was quite serious. As he looked at the Profound power in the coffin, it hummed, and then, it formed into a protective barrier that protected his body.

This aura was truly suffocating.

Even his Three Spiritual Realms was completely disadvantaged.

It was fortunate that there were quite a few Three Spiritual Realms experts arranged for the auction this time. Several Three Spiritual Realms experts looked at each other and directly diffused the Qi within their bodies. With the combined efforts of several people, they were able to form a protective energy shield around their breaths, protecting everyone within it.

However, even though this was the case, some people, who were quite far from the auction stage, were still unable to avoid this aura. They only felt a tumble in their chests and their faces were pale and somewhat stiff. No one knew what happened, but everyone knew that the thing inside the sarcophagus was definitely not simple.

With the help of a Three Spiritual Realms expert, the fear in their eyes earlier disappeared and was replaced with excitement.

The people here weren't idiots. The heavier the aura just now, the more powerful the item inside was.

"Wen Ya seems to at least have the strength of a Three Spiritual Realms. To have such an appearance and such strength, she is indeed not simple."

Qin Shaojie noticed that Wen Ya was not really injured, and frowned slightly at the Qi, but it did not have much of an impact on him.

To be able to do all this, it showed that Wen Ya was at least in the Three Spiritual Realms, and from the looks of it, she was easier to do than Elder Chen, this seemed to also mean some things.

It was not only Qin Shaojie who had noticed this, many of the people present were also big shots of the big families, so how could they not have noticed it? If it was said that Wen Ya was just a vase among the crowd previously, then her previous performance showed that she was far more than just a vase.

Of course, this might have been a tactic that Wen Ya took advantage of. After all, no one had known about Wen Ya's cultivation level before this.

"That aura has dissipated!"

Several minutes passed and the aura inside the sarcophagus subsided quite a bit. Following that, several Three Spiritual Realms experts removed their energy protection barriers and two of them attacked together with Elder Chen, preparing to completely open the coffin.

The aura came and disappeared as quickly as it came. Although there was still a terrifying pressure lingering in the air, it had the lowest effect on the crowd right now.

Everyone once again focused their attention on the stone coffin.

This sarcophagus had not been truly opened ever since he had obtained it from the Exquisite Auction, even Wen Ya wasn't sure what was inside it, but his intuition told him that the things inside were definitely not simple.

Judging from the aura from before, this thing really did not disappoint him. After all, it was Wen Ya's idea to strongly insist on placing this sarcophagus on the ninth floor. If she were to fail, it would have a huge impact on her authority in the auction. But at the same time, if she won, it would be a huge benefit to him controlling the auction in the future.

From the looks of it, Wen Ya's bet this time seemed to be progressing in a more favorable direction.

With the help of three Three Spiritual Realms experts, even though the coffin's lid was heavy, they were still able to completely move it.

As the lid of the coffin was being moved away, the contents of the sarcophagus gradually appeared in front of everyone.

After the three of them completely carried away the coffin lid, an enormous corpse finally appeared in front of everyone's eyes.

It could be seen that this corpse had been here for a very long time, but there was no smell coming from it. No one knew whether the corpse had been placed inside, or whether it had rotted away until only the bones were left.

However, that was not important. What was important was the shape of the corpse!

Not a human! On the contrary, it seemed more like a kind of magical beast.

After all, neither the four limbs nor the head were common to humans.

Even Wen Ya had approached the stone coffin, only that she couldn't find any memories on the bones. In her memory, there didn't seem to be any kind of demonic beast that had such a shape.

Just like Wen Ya, everyone else could also see the corpses in the sarcophagus very clearly. Everyone tried to find something similar to the ones in their memories, but unfortunately, it was to no avail.

The entire auction venue had fallen into a rare strange atmosphere of silence.
