As the people in the auction house settled down. A mature, graceful woman walked onto the stage that overlooked the audience. She faced them with a bright smile and waited for the people to quiet down.

She spoke with a clear voice that was neither too slow nor too fast, “Welcome everyone, I am Lin Caihong, the host for tonight’s auction. I believe you all are familiar with the way our auctions work so I’d rather not waste anyone’s time.”

“The first item we have is…”

As the auction begins, Ji Xian sent a message to Xia Lihua to bid on every cultivation method, Divine Arts, and whatever else she wants.

The currency here is similar to the Mortal Haven World, which is spirit stones. These stones are naturally formed from Heaven and Earth.

Depending on the quality of the stones, they may contain either Qi or Essence that can be used for cultivation with the latter being more precious. For Ji Xian, money is never an issue. During the days when he was traveling around Mortal Haven, he stumbled upon many secrets and accumulated an incredible amount of wealth.

Not to mention he has collected the spatial rings from the Celestial race and the Nether race. For people from the Upper World, spirit stones from the Lower World have little value, but even so, it was abundant in the spatial rings that he had obtained.

It was unfortunate that there wasn’t any cultivation method being auctioned and there weren’t any items that interest him. Of course, just because he was uninterested doesn’t mean others were the same.

Weapons, Divine Arts, pills, and rare herbs were all auctioned and bids were yelled out one after another. It was quite intense. Xia Lihua bought all the Divine Arts causing people to cast some unhappy glances in their direction.

The room was inscribed with several runes to protect the privacy of the occupants so few knew the room was being used by the Ardent Yin Sect.

Just as Ji Xian was beginning to feel bored, an item was brought out that finally caught his interest.

Lin Caihong waved her hand, and an old, thick book floated in front of her. The word [Han] can be seen on the front cover, obviously handwritten.

She took a deep breath and solemnly said, “This book is written by The Miracle, Empress Han Lan of Amber Soul Kingdom.”

"…"

The audience of over several hundred people became disturbingly quiet. Their reaction did not discourage her. She reacted the same way when she learned about the origin of the book!

In the VIP room. Ji Xian and Xia Lihua are naturally unfamiliar with this name and judging from the serious attitude of everyone in the auction house, this person was definitely not ordinary.

“Who is Empress Han Lan?” Xia Lihua asked Bing Yi.

Her question led to questioning gazes from the disciples of the Ardent Yin Sect and even the young Lin Roulan.

Bing Yi suspiciously looked at Xia Lihua and asked, “Senior Xia, you have never heard of Empress Han Lan?”

“No.”

Bing Yi explained, “Great Empress Han Lan was a legendary figure that ascended over four millennia ago. Unfortunately, all information about her has disappeared with time or has been destroyed so little is known about the Empress.”

“Destroyed? Why?” Asked Xia Lihua.

Bing Yi shook her head, “No one knows.”

“There are simply too many legends surrounding the Great Empress, such as how she was unable to cultivate when she was young due to a mysterious incurable disease.”

“An incurable disease? But she was able to ascend, did she find a cure?”

“Yes, after her disease was cured, she revealed an unparalleled talent for not only cultivation but also alchemy, formation, talisman, and even weapon smithing. It is because of Empress Han Lan that we have advanced so far in those fields today.”

A look of admiration appeared on Bing Yi’s face, she said, “She had also once saved the Mortal Desolate World from total destruction. Unfortunately, the details are unknown but this has been confirmed by the Arcane Mountain and the other top Sects.”

Xia Lihua inwardly thought, Why does this person remind me of someone…

She raised an eyebrow and glanced at Ji Xian but she couldn’t see his expression.

Outside the room, heavy breathing can be heard in the silent auction house and passionate gazes from the crowd alternated between the book and Lin Caihong.

Seeing that they were all waiting for her elaboration, she took a deep breath and said, “I’m sure everyone here is familiar with Empress Han Lan, this book was found in an undiscovered pocket realm in the ruined Amber Soul Kingdom. After its discovery, we have sent this book to the Arcane Mountain and they can confirm that from the handwriting on the cover, there is a high chance that it belonged and was written by the Great Empress.”

Her words caused some excitement in the audience but more were confused. Any item relating to Empress Han Lan is incredibly precious, yet, the Solitude Auction House was willing to sell it?

Not to mention, there seems to be a lack of promotion. If the Solitude Auction House spread the word that an item that once belonged to the Empress will be put up in the auction, the entire Mortal Desolate World will make a move! But they chose not to do so. The thought made people skeptical.

Lin Caihong read the room and quickly explained, “As you all know, The Great Empress had a wide range of expertise, one of them being formation.”

Hearing this, the faces of some people in the crowd lit up as they understood something.

Lin Caihong nodded, and said, “This book has a formation that prevents anyone from opening it. We have invited many formation masters in an attempt to remove the formation but they have all failed. Even the Arcane Mountain was helpless. As this is the case, we, at the Solitude Auction House decided to sell it.”

“As for why we decided to not announce the auctioning of such a rare item to the world… this is again related to the Arcane Mountain."
