Chapter 858

The number of deities participating is considerable.

Therefore, the prices of abyssal items at the auction have surged significantly.

"Phew, that went smoothly!"

The little elf Clara let out a long breath.

Her experience was not as rich as Gaxia's.

This was her first time hosting a Changpaimai Society auction alone.

Fortunately, Clara had a good sense of pacing.

Throughout the entire event, her performance remained stable.

Thus, this first auction proceeded without incident.

Clara counted up her earnings.

Three abyssal items sold for over five thousand high-grade divine stones.

This was because one of the abyssal items was exchanged by a heavenly deity for another item Lin Yan needed.

"We're running out of abyssal items."

Clara thought.

Yes, the abyssal items she and Gaxia had brought out were nearly exhausted.

Just as she thought this, Mavis consumed some divine power and sent new abyssal items through the faith channel.

"Clara, these abyssal items are more valuable—raise the starting bid a bit."

The goddess Mavis also gave instructions.

"Yes, Goddess!"

Clara bowed respectfully.

Clara took the new abyssal items and departed for another divine realm.

Only one auction is held per divine realm—that had already been agreed upon.

Meanwhile, in the abyss, three days had passed.

In the Lotus Abyss, a large number of demons had gathered, powerful and belonging to different demon dynasties.

They were the eyes and mouths of the abyssal demon gods, sent to verify the authenticity of the items the God of Darkness had brought forth, and to bid on their behalf.

And the host of this auction was not the God of Darkness, but Succubus Natasha.

Yes, the God of Darkness had lent Natasha.

Yet the God of Darkness still cast her gaze downward, even lowering her divine throne.

This was a deterrent to all the demons present and the abyssal demon gods behind them!

"Indeed, the God of Darkness—she's even brought down her divine throne. She's serious now."

Some abyssal demon gods who had cast their gaze thought.

To be honest,

Without the God of Darkness's move, these abyssal demon gods might have truly caused trouble.

Like snatching one or two auction items and fleeing.

They had done such things before.

After snatching them, they'd hide away—even the God of Darkness couldn't find them.

They'd even boast about successfully stealing items right under the God of Darkness's nose!

This was the abyss.

There was not a shred of honesty to be found.

If you want others to be honest, your fist must be strong enough!

In the center of the Lotus Abyss, Natasha stood and produced an item.

It was a flower.

Its name was Heavenly Flower!

In the heavenly realm, Heavenly Flowers were uncommon, but not especially precious.

Sending a few holy spirits to search the heavenly realm could still yield many "wild" Heavenly Flowers.

Yet in the abyss, the moment this single Heavenly Flower appeared, it stirred up considerable commotion.

"Heavenly Flower? So, damn, where did the God of Darkness get this?"

One abyssal demon god muttered.

"Eating this Heavenly Flower will stimulate divine power, making it even more chaotic—I'm claiming this flower."

Another abyssal demon god said.

Yes, chaotic divine power was extremely chaotic divine power—the more chaotic, the higher its rank.

Within Lin Yan's divine core, the sea of divine power containing chaotic divine power was not calm, but wildly turbulent.

Unlike the sea of heavenly divine power, which remained perpetually serene and orderly!

The moment this Heavenly Flower appeared, it drew the attention of numerous abyssal demon gods.

Some abyssal demon gods were calculating what price they'd need to pay to acquire it.

Others' eyes darted around, their dim minds likely calculating the odds of outright theft…

"The first item of this auction: one Heavenly Flower. Starting bid: one hundred high-grade abyssal divine stones. Bidding now open."

Natasha said in a cold, clear voice.

"No need to bid—I offer one thousand."

At that moment, an abyssal demon king spoke directly.

It actually raised the price by tenfold!

"What's 1000 pieces? I offer ten thousand!"

Immediately, another Demon Lord spoke.

Seeing this, Succubus Natasha let out a light snort, heard a "whoosh" as she drew her sword, and vanished from her spot in an instant.

When she reappeared, she was beside one of the Demon Lords who had just spoken, swung her longsword, and severed the utterly unprepared Demon Lord's head.

After slicing off the head, Succubus Natasha vanished again, and when she reappeared, she stood beside another Demon Lord, swinging her sword once more.

"You dare strike directly, my god..."

"Boom!"

Before the Abyssal Demon Lord could finish, he was engulfed in demonic flame.

Two swift strikes—two Demon Lords eliminated!

Succubus Natasha's ruthless tactics silenced every Demon Lord ready to cause trouble.

"Roar, how dare you!"

At that moment, a roar echoed from the sky.

Immediately, a portal opened, and a Demon God prepared to directly manifest power to attack Succubus Natasha.

Succubus Natasha prepared to retaliate without fear.

"Horsaen, do you dare cause trouble?"

The God of Darkness spoke with a cold voice.

The Demon God who had just manifested his power, upon hearing the God of Darkness's voice, fearfully retracted the entire attack.

The God of Darkness's intimidation was evident.

After Succubus Natasha demonstrated her firm resolve and the God of Darkness revealed such terrifying authority, the Crimson Lotus Abyss fell silent for a time.

No servants of the Demon Gods stirred anymore.

"I offer 150 high-grade Abyssal Divine Stones!"

At that moment, another Demon Lord spoke up.

Now this was how bidding should be done.

"150 pieces—anyone else?"

Succubus Natasha asked.

"I'll go 200!"

Immediately, another Demon Lord spoke.

There were no shortage of Abyssal Demon Gods here.

Knowing they were unlikely to obtain the Heavenly Realm Flower by other means, numerous Abyssal Demon Gods began participating in the auction properly.
