"Another treasure chest has appeared!"
When Lin Chen saw the 'Longevity True Fire Seal' appear, a bronze treasure chest was also floating above the galaxy character display!
Shangguan Yunfan smiled elegantly, also feeling extremely envious in his heart.
His Shangguan family had exhausted half their fortune just to obtain a mid-level Green Order pill concocting hand seal to support the family's development. A high-level Green Order one was priceless, while a top-level Green Order one, only a fool would easily take it out to sell.
"A top-level Green Order hand seal!"
Xing Wanhe sat in the VIP room specially prepared in the City Lord's manor, and his hands shook violently before finally settling down. He took a deep sigh.
As the chief alchemist of Wanling City, no one at the scene understood its value better than him!
The mid-level Green Order pill concoction hand seal had already allowed him to attain the revered fourth-order alchemist status. If it was a top-level Green Order one, his alchemy skills could reach another level!
"At my age, such excitement really isn't good for me."
Xing Wanhe seemed to have aged a few years, murmuring regretfully to himself.
"Hey hey, Old Xing, don't get too excited. Even I can't protect you if you cause trouble here."
The Yellow Robed Fatty took a bite of an apple and giggled.
On the high platform, although many experts were present, the commotion eventually settled down. Based on the situation, the Longevity True Fire Seal was the most precious item.
"Hehe, the Shangguan family still fell slightly short in the end."
A group of people walked in from the passageway to the VIP room. It was the Nangong family!
The blue-robed middle-aged man leading them chuckled and said, "I've also seen through the secrets in this ancient book, what a pity. If your family had someone who cultivated the Purple Golden Eyes to the fourth level, the outcome today would really be hard to predict."
The blue-robed man smiled strangely at Shangguan Yunfan. Shangguan glanced at both families' members.
"As expected, someone leaked the situation within our family to you guys."
The Huangfu Clan members looked at Shangguan Yunfan mockingly, as if they had already seen the outcome.
"Yunyan, go tell them what's truly the most precious item!"
The blue-robed middle-aged man looked towards the high platform. Nangong Yunyan nodded coldly and gracefully stepped onto the platform.
Her delicate jade hand lightly clasped together, and Nangong Yunyan gently touched the tattered ancient blade on counter #1. The nine embedded gemstones on the blade lit up and gradually emitted a radiance.
"Could this lass not know that the item within the blade is a Fourth-Order Beast Core?" Shangguan Yunfan frowned. He had already utilized the Purple Golden Eyes multiple times to confirm that the only valuable thing on the ancient blade was the Fourth-Order Beast Core within the blade. That item was precious, but incomparable to the Longevity True Fire Seal.
"Could it be...?" Lin Chen activated his Purple Golden Eyes, and in the purple lightning world, observed another wonder within the ancient blade!
The moment her jade finger touched the blade, Nangong Yunyan cut her fingertip and dripped a drop of essence blood. The entire ancient blade started surging with a rolling, murderous aura!
The nine gem-like beast cores started emitting astonishing ferocity. The various experts in the venue unleashed their auras to shield everyone!
Nine purple pillars of light shot upwards. Within them, three even materialized into terrifying phantom beasts that kept howling!
"This is?" Shangguan Yunfan's expression drastically changed!
"Father..." Shangguan Bihan looked worriedly at the high platform. This final appraisal session was full of ups and downs!
"These are nine beast cores from True Flame Purple Phoenixes during the Ancient Times. Eight are Fourth-Order, while one is Fifth-Order!" Nangong Yunyan's words caused a huge commotion!
Even the various renowned appraisers in the venue changed colors!
The True Flame Purple Phoenix had pure Ancient Phoenix bloodlines. Its beast cores were worth at least ten times that of beast cores at the same level!
Moreover, one of the cores was actually Fifth-Order!
Fifth-Order - that was equivalent to the Heavenly Gang Realm level of experts!
A single Heavenly Gang Realm expert could dominate the entirety of Wanling City!
In the entire Desolate Lands, Heavenly Gang Realm experts were few and far between, let alone killing one!
To slay a True Flame Purple Phoenix comparable to the Heavenly Gang Realm, that level of difficulty was unimaginable to anyone present!
Although precious, the top-level Green Order pill concocting hand seal simply wasn't on the same level as these nine True Flame Purple Phoenix beast cores!
"So the Shangguan family still lost to the Nangong family in the end... "
Murmurs had already started in the crowd below, with some lamenting that such an Ancient Beast comparable to the Heavenly Gang Realm could actually be slain and forged into this ancient weapon.
Shangguan Yunfan gnashed his teeth furiously. He had discovered the existence of the nine beast cores earlier, but due to their age and being embedded into the weapon, he had failed to discern their actual grades!
The Shangguan family members were grinding their teeth resentfully, some lowering their heads in resignation, others extremely unwilling but keeping silent.
"It seems my Shangguan family should recuperate for a period. Closing our ancestral shrine for decades still affected our foundations after all..." Shangguan Yunfan sighed inwardly. The Nangong family members laughed arrogantly.
"As expected, the Nangong family is still number one in appraisals in the Desolate Lands!"
"Mm, the younger generation has surpassed the old. This is now the era of the youth. Yunyan, well done."
"Shangguan Yunfan, how does it feel to watch your family's failure personally? Hahaha! Just look at you, like a defeated dog!"
The Nangong family members jeered and taunted unrestrainedly.
After today, word would spread from Wanling City across the entire Desolate Lands that the Shangguan family was no longer a match for the Nangong family. The Nangong family would surge even further ahead!
In the appraisal field, the gap between first and second place attracted completely different levels of experts. And by relying on the Nangong family, the Huangfu Clan would also soar upwards.
The Shangguan members stood up angrily, with some hot-blooded youths turning red from anger.
Just when the atmosphere on site was highly combustible, a carefree and cheerful laugh from the youth injected the Shangguan members with new vigor!
"The true treasure is indeed within that ancient blade. The outcome of this contest has yet to be determined."
All eyes turned towards the passageway to the VIP room. An elegant and graceful beauty slowly walked out.
It was Shangguan Bihan!
Behind Shangguan Bihan was a youth with straight posture and steady steps.
Hands in his pockets, he had a carefree and indifferent expression, with a hint of self-confidence but not arrogance on his still childish face!
"It's Miss Shangguan Bihan! But who's that person behind her?"
"It's him! I heard he was the diviner who helped the Shangguan family restore their ancestral shrine!"
"I recognize him, he's the youth who made Grandmaster Yan from the Twenty Four Stars organization dance!"
"This is an appraisal convention, what does a diviner have to do with it?"
Hidden in the shadows, Yan Jiwen heard the discussions and turned green with anger, gritting his teeth.
Then, his eyes narrowed as he muttered to himself softly.
"Could this brat also be an appraiser? Impossible, he's so young, how could he be proficient in so many fields!"
Hearing the discussions from the crowd, Nangong Yunyan rarely revealed a hint of emotional fluctuation on her cold and blue eyes. She stared at Shangguan Bihan and said slowly in a crisp and cold voice.
"Your earlier statement is the same as my appraisal results after activating the lights, completely unconvincing."
Heart] Chen Yi traversed the cultivation world for eight hundred years, charging his way to the Tribulation Transcendence stage. Just as he was outwitting his 81st Heavenly Tribulation to ascend to immortality, he was suddenly pulled into a chat group called the "Multiverse Transmigrators Support Group." To his surprise, the group was filled with nothing but fresh-faced newbies who had just transmigrated. [Help! I transmigrated into a disgraced concubine in the cold palace, and the tyrant emperor is about to execute me!] [I ended up as a cannon-fodder villain, and the protagonist is still chasing me—WTF!] [I woke up as the protagonist’s father, but I’m about to be sacrificed in a ritual! What do I do? Urgent!!!] Chen Yi stared at the chaotic flood of desperate pleas in the group and fell into deep thought. "Seriously? You drag me into a newbie transmigrator chat group… only after I’m one step away from becoming an immortal?"
] This is a dark fantasy-themed dating simulation game. The main gameplay involves containing various monster girls and investigating the truth of a world shrouded in mist alongside your companions. However, due to his love for the dark and bizarre atmosphere, Luo Wei ended up turning a dating game into a detective mystery game. Women? Women only slow down his quickdraw! To Luo Wei, the female leads in the game are more like tools to perfectly clear levels and squeeze out rewards. For Luo Wei, flirting with every girl he meets and then discarding them is standard procedure. Worried about characters losing affection points? No need. With his maxed-out charm stat, Luo Wei is practically a "human incubus." A little psychological manipulation and those points come right back. It's a bit scummy, but the paper cutout heroines in the game won't actually come at him with real cleavers. However... Luo Wei has transmigrated. He's accidentally entered the second playthrough of this game. His past actions have caused all the girls to transform into terrifying yanderes. Due to the game's setting, most of the heroines he once contained are "troubled girls." Obsessive, twisted, mentally unstable, all aggressive yanderes... The type who will kill you if they can't have you... Luo Wei wants to cry but has no tears left. "I really just want to survive..." In short, this is a story of battling wits and engaging in a love-hate relationship with yanderes.

Which meant, starting today, Cao Cheng gained four stunning older sisters?? But that wasn't even the whole story... "My name is Cao Cheng—'Cheng' as in 'honest, smooth-talking gentleman'!"
lan, the Luo family, tracked him down - along with the babies in their arms. Mo Xuan stared pensively at the paternity test results from over a dozen top institutions, both domestic and international, showing a 99.99% match between himself and the two baby girls. At 23, Mo Xuan, a doctoral student, had become the father of two three-year-old children. The kicker? The mothers weren't even the same person! He gradually realized he was being lured step by step into an elaborate trap designed by these two yandere sisters. "Be good, little Xuan. Sister's life belongs to you entirely." "Brother, if you try to run away, I'll have no choice but to tie you up." Mo Xuan: "Do whatever you want, ladies. I give up."
