The moment this pill appeared, the entire hall fell into a stunned silence.
Though it appeared to be merely hanging, it revealed a formidable wave of power that was like a fatal temptation to all who beheld it.
Also, it seemed to absorb the light rather than reflect it, exuding an aura that was both mysterious and chilling.
Even Ling Feng, who had spent much of the auction indifferent to the commotion around him, felt his gaze drawn irresistibly to the item.
“Esteemed guests,” Mei Shan began, her voice smooth and confident, “you are now gazing upon an extraordinary treasure—this black ominous pill, before you is popularly known as the Seed of Darkness.”
A ripple of murmurs spread through the crowd.
Ling Feng could feel the rising tension in the room. Even seasoned cultivators seemed momentarily lost in awe. He raised an eyebrow, silently acknowledging the item’s significance.
“The Seed of Darkness?” he mused internally. His eyes narrowed as he examined it more closely.
