Devouring Evolution: I Reborn as an Arctic Wolf Chapter 2056 - 1141: Return to the Star Core Trading City (2)

This grand occasion involves formidable powers like the Black Sun Clan, the Entropy Prison System, and the Dark Erosion Holy Hall!

After all, the Heavenly Destiny Clan's accumulations across countless eras, alongside the ownership and access rights to the Central Star Core, present auction items of unimaginable value.

Indeed, the treasures up for grabs this time are comparable to the Transcendent Opportunities of this current epoch!

With hundreds of years still remaining until the commencement of the event, the atmosphere here is already incredibly vibrant.

The immense Star Core radiates an aura that suggests every participant possesses at least Heavenly Boundary cultivation.

Without reaching the Heavenly Boundary, one cannot even gain entry into the Trading City!

Furthermore, tens of thousands of VIPs are present, each having expended trillions in resources.

Among these attendees are formidable beings who arrived during the Star Core's fragmentation,

as well as certain external stellar factions employing secret techniques to traverse the nebula and acquire resources here.

The withdrawal of the Heavenly Destiny Clan, with its vast treasures accumulated over dozens of eras set for auction, is more than enough to pique the interest of many forces beyond the Blazing Nebula.

Yet, almost everyone present utilizes Starlight Battle Armor, Black Soul Robes, or their personal artifacts and stealth-based talent secret techniques to disguise their true appearance and conceal their aura.

Naturally, no one wishes to reveal their true identity at such a high-stakes auction, thereby attracting unwanted attention and potential conflict.

This cautious approach is maintained even with the Heavenly Destiny Clan overseeing the proceedings!

Upon Su Lin and his group's arrival, billions of customers were already engaged in trade and purchases.

Even after Su Lin presented the VIP mark obtained from a previous acquisition, they were informed that the number of accompanying members was capped at a hundred!

Should other accompanying members wish to join, they would be required to purchase separate auction entrance tickets!

Each ticket comes with a steep price of ten thousand Blood Stones, Luck Stones, or Star Stones!

This entrance fee is exceptionally high!

However, it also serves as an effective gauge for an individual's strength!

Therefore, after a brief deliberation, Su Lin decided to bring only the Twelve-winged Dream Butterfly, the Sand Fox, the Black Gold Holy Daughter, and the Charm Fox with him!

The remaining members, such as the Black Gold Demon Ape and the Shadow of Plague, were instructed to lead the followers and escort Lev through the other trading halls within the Star Core.

Lev has long been a crucial figure in the research division of the Wolf Pack Civilization.

However, even after millions of years, they have yet to develop advanced weaponry like the Star Sky Mother Ship Group or Star Energy Mechas.

Even fundamental technologies such as Nuclear Sources, atomic fission, and fusion have hit a developmental standstill!

This situation has left Lev feeling somewhat discouraged, believing that the Wolf Pack Civilization's technological advancement is unlikely to see significant progress in the short term.

Consequently, Lev was brought here to personally witness the pinnacle of technology within the Blazing Nebula!

The hope was that inspiration might be found, which would be the best possible outcome.

If not, it would simply signify that the Wolf Pack Civilization currently lacks the capacity to independently develop such advanced technologies.

Following Su Lin's directive, Lev, accompanied by the Black Gold Demon Ape, the Shadow of Plague, and a contingent of Undercover Agents and Dream Guards, began exploring the outer areas of the Star Core Trading City with prudence.

Su Lin, alongside the Sand Fox, the Twelve-winged Dream Butterfly, the Charm Fox, the Black Gold Demon Race Holy Daughter, and dozens of Half-step Heavenly Venerate level elites, proceeded into the inner core of the Trading City.

Currently, the inner core area is hosting an introductory session for the upcoming auction.

Large-scale auctions are never concluded swiftly.

Given that this premier auction involves items of Nebula Level, the bidding could encompass items valued from tens of thousands to hundreds of thousands, and even millions or over a billion.

As a result, there is typically a preliminary introduction to the auction items.

However, to maintain an element of suspense and mystery, these introductions often only hint at certain effects and functions, refraining from fully disclosing the nature of the items.

This approach allows ample room for imagination among prospective bidders.

It is evident that even within the vast Dark Starry Sky, human nature and market dynamics are well understood.

However, compared to the preceding human era, interactions here are more direct, with less pretense.

Upon Su Lin's group entering the inner precinct, they expended ten thousand Blood Stones to secure the rental of a private box.

At such prestigious auctions, extravagant spending is quite commonplace.

Ten thousand Blood Stones might be sufficient for a Heavenly Venerate level cultivator to engage in a life-or-death struggle, yet here, it merely grants the usage rights to a box for the duration of the event.

Once settled in their box, Su Lin, the Twelve-winged Dream Butterfly, the Sand Fox, the Black Gold Demon Race Holy Daughter, the Charm Fox, and others quietly observed the introductory presentation for this most exclusive and grand auction.

"Young Master, typically grand auctions feature preludes discussing collateral, the auction items, and potential bidding alliances. Even the most modest auctions require astronomical sums, far beyond what most can comprehend. Consequently, many species and powerful entities opt to bid collectively. You have secured a private box, and someone might soon extend an invitation. However, given the diverse attendees, I advise against forming partnerships to preempt future complications."

The Holy Daughter of the Black Gold Demon Race offered this counsel.

Having integrated into the Wolf Pack Civilization through marriage, she had gained profound insights over countless millennia.

A swiftly ascending power, almost legendary in status.

Particularly the current Wolf Lord, who orchestrated a campaign from a First-level Life Planet, conquering the entirety of the Wangshu Zone in under ten thousand years.

Regardless of the Red Sun Empire, the Jinhui System, or other burgeoning hegemons, none could rival the esteemed legend of this Wolf Lord.

Furthermore, on the day the Red Sun Emperor was subdued, his might nearly bordered on Forbidden Giant levels, establishing dominance over the entire Blazing Nebula and instilling widespread apprehension in the Black Sun Clan and the Heavenly Destiny Clan!

Such is the magnitude of his influence.

Therefore, despite her affiliation with the Black Gold Demon Clan and possessing a ten-tier Ultimate Demonic Body, she displayed not a shred of arrogance!

Throughout the vast span of a million years, her conduct had consistently been one of meticulous caution and diligence.

Currently, she felt an earnest desire to prove her utility while assisting the Wolf Lord.

"Indeed, I grasp your meaning. Should you identify something of interest at this auction, do not hesitate to voice it. If the resources permit, I shall endeavor to assist you in acquiring it!"

Su Lin gazed at the Holy Daughter of the Black Gold Demon Race, nodded placidly, and responded.

Up next,

Within the inner sanctum of the auction, Prodigies of the Heavenly Destiny Clan, specializing in service roles, soon made their appearance, inquiring about items available for auction or pledge.

It wasn't long before they arrived at the vicinity of Su Lin's group's private box.

........

Meanwhile, within the Human Fortress, Tiffany was relegated to being a mere tool of marginal utility to those in positions of authority. In contrast to many of her peers who found themselves utterly powerless, she too was a figure who could be casually set aside by the higher echelons. The prolonged duration that she and Sander had endured in the Arctic, devoid of any rescue initiatives from the Human Fortress, had long since eroded Tiffany's hope. Now, observing the availability of fresh Variant Species Flesh within the Wolf Clan, a consequence of her own endeavors, both Tiffany and Sander arrived at a shared realization almost simultaneously.

Su Lin discerned the expressions on the faces of the pair, and their sentiments appeared genuine, aligning perfectly with his own intentions. He could readily anticipate that human civilization, during the Ice Age, was in a state of fragmentation. With a modicum of kindness and a gesture of goodwill, he could secure the unwavering loyalty of these two individuals, rendering the arrangement highly beneficial for Su Lin, much to his satisfaction. His eyes conveyed nothing but sheer astonishment.

What an incredibly potent species it must be to have vanquished the formidable Mad Thunder Skyhawk and to have brazenly transported its carcass towards the Land of Adventure.

As the observing hunters watched in utter shock, a White Wolf possessing even more formidable might emerged. Its velocity was so extreme it eluded the naked eye, leaving behind only a faint white blur that streaked past like a phantom, vanishing without a trace. Upon reopening their eyes, the White Wolf was already standing proudly atop a distant eminence, unleashing a howl towards the heavens and signaling the White Wolf Pack to advance deeper into the Arctic expanse...

This spectacle imprinted itself indelibly upon the memories of the hunters, and for the remainder of their lives, they would likely recall the silver-white silhouette of that White Wolf, incapable of erasing it from their minds.

For that White Wolf represented the most powerful creature they had ever encountered across all species, its terrifying prowess compelling them to maintain a respectful distance, and its imperious dominion over all things instilled a profound sense of dread within them!

The Land of Adventure, bathed in the perpetual light of the polar day, found its sky consumed by ominous dark clouds. At this juncture, the atmosphere was thick with a somber, oppressive low pressure, suggesting an imminent storm. Waves of chilling air swept through every recess of the Land of Adventure, carried by the biting wind. All fauna suppressed their predatory urges, stealthily lurking in shadowed alcoves to evade the gale's embrace, preparing to hunt fresh sustenance. Across the ice fields, brutally scoured by the frigid wind, countless pairs of predatory eyes lay concealed.
