My low-key cultivation of immortality was discovered by the emperor in my diary.

Chapter 456 Branch Auction Begins!

The years do not live, the seasons flow.

The Wanxingmeng branch officially opened today, welcoming guests from all directions.

And the highly anticipated auction will begin tonight.

Chu Lengyu stood on the bustling dock, her gaze passing through the crowd, gazing at the majestic red building in the distance.

Its towering buildings reached into the clouds, exuding a magnificent aura, which secretly amazed her.

Last time she came, she thought that the 20-zhang-wide main road was too extravagant and wasteful.

However, only now does she realize that it was all just perfect timing.

Tonight, Jingu Island has activated a seven-tiered protective array, enveloping the entire island in a dazzling light.

Upon seeing this, all the cultivators obediently stopped their escape light and, in various ways—some on foot, some riding magical artifacts, and some on mounts—slowly made their way toward the vermilion tower in the center.

Jingu Island was packed with people, but their faces all wore a look of anticipation.

Today, Chu Lengyu has changed into a new appearance. The commotion caused by her previous "Heaven and Earth Manifestation" was too great and might attract some unnecessary trouble.

This time, she chose to dress casually and blend into the crowd, so no one would pay much attention to her.

Chu Lengyu strolled among the crowd, not deliberately revealing her cultivation level, but she naturally sensed the atmosphere of powerful figures surrounding her.

Cultivators at the Nascent Soul stage are a common sight here, and those at the Integration stage are not uncommon either.

As for the Mahayana stage cultivators, they must have already entered the auction venue, since she arrived rather late.

At the main gate, two stern-faced men in black stood guard at the entrance.

Judging from the aura they faintly exuded, they were all powerful individuals at the late stage of the Integration Realm, with unfathomable strength.

People stared at the two gatekeepers, secretly marveling.

Even the most powerful Sea King Palace wouldn't be willing to use a powerhouse of this caliber as a gatekeeper.

This demonstrates that the strength of the Myriad Star Alliance is truly formidable and awe-inspiring.

Chu Lengyu's gaze lingered on the two gatekeepers for a moment.

The fact that the Myriad Stars Alliance could field such a powerful figure to guard the gate demonstrates its profound strength and should not be underestimated.

Little did they know that it was her sudden action last time that startled the temple's guardians, causing them to abandon their complacency and fear an accident on such an important opening day, which is why they arranged for the two of them to guard the place.

Following the flow of people, Chu Lengyu stepped through the gate of the vermilion building.

Suddenly, her vision cleared, and a vast space unfolded before her, causing her to momentarily lose her composure.

But she quickly regained her composure and walked lightly into the depths.

The lobby on the first floor has been completely renovated and is now open for business, bustling with activity.

Countless beautifully painted ladies and gentlemen moved among the crowd, accompanying the guests and providing them with attentive service.

They are masters of calligraphy and painting, possess exceptional natural memories, and can remember everything they see. No matter what the guests want to ask, they can provide the corresponding answers.

Chu Lengyu secretly wondered if these identical painting spirits were all clones of Danzhu.

Huge water curtains hung all around, displaying information on countless items participating in the auction, a dazzling display.

Below the water curtain are countless crystal pedestals used to display the auction items.

This approach is quite novel.

Even those who cannot enter the auction in person can learn about the auction through the water screen and crystal display stand, thus broadening their horizons.

They either stopped to watch or talked in hushed tones, all with a hint of curiosity on their faces.

Once they return to their respective seas, these experiences will become the best topics of conversation, spreading to every corner of the Minghai realm and making the auction even more famous.

Chu Lengyu glanced at the auction information on the water screen and found that it was not much different from the list she had seen before.

She thought to herself that the real wonders probably wouldn't be released in advance in order to maintain their mystery.

Of course, forces like the Sea King Palace and the Thousand Mist Sect might still be able to find out about those hidden auction items through other channels.

She smiled slightly, a sense of anticipation in her heart.

A brand-new auction venue stands prominently in the center of the first-floor lobby.

After all, the first floor is an independent little world, and it can easily accommodate any additional buildings.

As Chu Lengyu approached, a maidservant quickly came to greet her.

The maid bowed slightly and asked in a soft and respectful voice, "Senior, may I ask what your seat number is?"

Chu Lengyu smiled slightly, but instead of answering directly, she gently handed over the invitation.

The maid's gaze swept over it, and a look of surprise flashed in her eyes.

Her attitude became even more respectful: "Please follow me, senior."

Led by a maid, Chu Lengyu stepped into the mysterious auction hall.

Once inside, the surrounding environment changes once again.

The once bright light dimmed, and bursts of noise reached my ears.

Chu Lengyu did not rashly release her divine sense to explore her surroundings, but instead simply used her eyesight to survey the scene before her.

With a gentle gesture from the maid, Chu Lengyu stepped into a teleportation array that shimmered with a faint light.

A spatial fluctuation came, and the next moment, her figure appeared in the VIP room with the corresponding number.

The private room was decorated very comfortably, with fine wines and delicacies, fragrant fruits, and wafting incense, adding a touch of elegance to this quiet space.

If you want to leave, it's also very convenient. Just walk into the miniature teleportation array that's been set up in the private room, and you can leave silently without being noticed by anyone.

Chu Lengyu couldn't help but marvel once again at how the Myriad Star Alliance's application of the Dao of Space was truly evident in every aspect.
