Chapter 582. Fighting for the [Sun Obliterating Immortal Body].

The Auctioneer continued presenting the item and said something that took Yasenia's attention.

"By the way, the cultivator was kind enough to allow us to reveal where it comes from. This cultivation technique comes from a secret realm that was discovered recently, about two hundred years ago. This Secret Realm is in the Southwest part of the continent, near [Dolgor City]. According to estimates, it will open again in three to eight years. The best estimate is five and a half years, but the possibility of opening sooner or later exists."

"For more information about the Secret Realm, sirs and madams will have to visit [Dolgor City]."

Yasenia became thoughtful. 'I think I've read about this city. It is one of the major cities in the continent.'

Tengliu commented. "Dolgor? That place is quite a deep well."

Yasenia asked. "Do you think I can open a branch of my clan there?"

Tengliu pondered. "If you do so with my and Coraline's support, it's possible. However, you need a few Epoch Core Realm cultivators. Your usual intimidation tactics won't work as well as they did here in Koran City. There are powers there that actually request a fight, after all."

Yasenia pondered. 'Then… I should find a place nearby to set up a sect. Even if they want to stop me, after I manage to set up a formation, it will be basically impossible… Hm. Yes, I'll do so. Koran City has become too small for me too quickly, so it's time to create my main headquarters and power in Distancia.'

Tatyana and Cecile heard her, so Cecile asked. 'How will you call it?'

Yasenia smiled. 'Astral Sky Sect.'

Tatyana lifted an eyebrow. 'Oh? You are opening a sect?'

Yasenia nodded. 'Yes. It's a sect with the Astral Sky Clan leading it and the Dravory Family on top. People who enter the Astral Sky Clan will be those who pass the test I'm doing right now. The test for the sect can be laxer.'

Cecile asked. 'And the test to enter the Dravory Family?'

Yasenia heard the warning, but she just laughed. 'There isn't one, sweetheart. That's our family. The only way to make it bigger is by making children~.'

Tatyana smirked. 'I can bet you there will be an exception in about a year or two.'

Yasenia blinked, confused.

Tatyana didn't explain.

Yasenia ignored it and continued thinking of ways to create her Sect securely.

She blinked and remembered that the [Holy Beast Empire] ruled those lands. Then, the dragon woman she spoke to on the first day appeared in her mind.

'That person I made connections with is from the Holy Beast Empire, right?'

As puzzle pieces clicked in her mind one after another, an intricate and detailed plan formed in the intelligent dragoness's mind.

She was aroused from her thoughts by the auctioneer's shout.

"Knowing this, let's bet, let's dance with each other for this unique treasure! The initial price is Ten Million Flawless Parus, minimum increment of five hundred thousand!"

Yasenia asked Tatyana. "How deep are our funds after selling all those treasures?"

Tatyana didn't answer and smiled. "Who knows?"

Yasenia frowned and closed her eyes.

Her powerful mind began calculating all items sold from three days ago until now. As numbers flew in her mind, three bets were made.

"The [Forest Sky Empire's Soaring Clan] bids twelve million!"

"The [Nine Golden Body Sect] bids thirteen million."

"The [Holy Beast Empire] bids fifteen million!"

Yasenia's eyes opened as the number formed in her mind. 'I have close to eighty-two one million.'

Yasenia opened her mouth, using her Empyrean Dragon Authority and Monarch intent in her words. "The [Astral Sky Clan] bids Thirty Million."

The enormous jump in price, accompanied by the imposing Royal Dragon aura, washed over everyone, hitting their hearts like a hammer would a bell.

Yasenia's momentum and will to get this item was clearly transmitted to all, silencing many about to bid and forcing them to sit back in their seats.

Moreover, the high price eliminated ninety-nine-point-nine percent of her competition.

The auctioneer was also stunned briefly, but she reacted fast. "T-Thirty million coming from the Astral Sky Clan Matriarch!"

When everyone thought that nobody would answer, the auctioneer's eyes opened at the sound of a male voice.

"The [Forest Sky Empire's Royal Family] bids Thirty-five million."

The deep and power-filled voice counterattacked Yasenia's momentum with bloodline pressure, but the dragoness's peak-level Ancient Beast Bloodline was unfazed.

Yasenia's face darkened. 'Why is a representative of a royal family here!?'

However, she didn't back down.

Her voice boomed again, using her [War Intent] as a form of intimidation on top of everything else.

As if a drop of blood landed on the water, her warm golden eyes were tainted by a deep red, and Yasenia felt her consciousness flickering.

A bloodthirsty desire bloomed in her heart as hints of killing intent spread to the outside. When her mind was about to drown in power and murder the War Intent instilled in her, a face flashed in her mind.

She remembered Andrea's face when working.

She remembered her darling's worried face while cultivating.

She remembered the sigh she heard in her forge.

The monstrous and uncontrollable desire to destroy receded, and the dragoness recuperated control over her emotions.

Yasenia's resolve and desire engulfed her uncontrolled mind, and her thoughts became clear and focused on one single thing.

Until today, she has always been restrained. When a senior appeared, she always backed down. She was taking a step back and thinking about the long run.

However, she was not giving up this time.

This was an essential item for Andrea, and Yasenia would not give up.

The red that swam in her iris because of the War Intent stopped glowing murderously, and it shone with the brilliance of determination!

'I'll get this for my darling!'

War was not only physical combat but a fight to win something!

"The [Astral Sky Clan] bids forty million."

Her aura boomed with such momentum that Tatyana had to protect Carbira.

People thought she wouldn't retaliate against the Royal Family of an Empire after they showed off their bloodline aura, but her words were like an explosion of might that made dragon-related people feel like they wanted to kneel.

The effect on other beast-related people was not mild by any means.

It was like thunder in a clear sky, startling everyone.

Tengliu's eyes opened wide as the young dragon's momentum rivaled some seniors she knew.

Yasenia's entire body gave the aura of not wanting to lose again to powers above herself.

The man in the VIP stand made a sound of interest. "Oh? Good aura! Are you sure you don't want to back down, Astral Sky Clan? You are facing a Royal Family."

Yasenia's clear mind spun, and an idea flashed in her mind. "Senior, I'll be disrespectful this time. But I won't back down unless your gathered wealth today is higher than mine."

The man asked. "Is this cultivation technique so important that you are willing to offend a Royal Item?"

Yasenia said seriously. "I would offend the World if needed."

There was silence at that bold statement before laughter sounded. "Hahaha, those are big words! However, saying it and making your words a reality is two very, very different things. Are you a reckless and arrogant person? Or are you someone who can carry over the threats you speak?"

Yasenia smiled as the conversation stirred in the direction she wanted.

She summoned the life-saving talisman Tatyana gave her and allowed a strand of the aura to leak outside.

Everyone felt their bodies erupting with chills, and a deep primal fear invaded their souls.

"Senior, this should be a good enough answer."

The man's calm voice was not that chill anymore. "What was that?"

Yasenia spoke. "Senior, that's not the main problem today. Is whether I have the qualifications to face your family. I think that this is enough."

The same deep voice asked. "Who are you? This is my first time feeling a bloodline as powerful as yours, together with an aura that made my body cower."

Yasenia answered coldly. "As I said, it is irrelevant. Will you bid or not, your majesty?"

The man paused before answering. "Hahaha! To think I'll have a day like this. Let's be honest with each other. My funds are sixty-five and a half million Parus. Are yours higher?"

Yasenia's voice continued to be aloof and indifferent, with firmness and elegance in it. "They are, your majesty."

"Good. Then, the [Sky Forest Empire] retires from the bid."

The other powers didn't speak, but their silence spoke volumes.

Yasenia spoke aloud. "This junior has received your benevolence even while breaching etiquette. Those from the [Sky Forest Empire Royal Family] will have a ten percent discount in our shops for a hundred years."

"Hahaha! Good, good, this old man has nothing to say. Give it to her."

The dragon woman wanted to ask if anybody else wanted to bid, but the man spoke, interrupting her. "I said give it to her. There is nobody here who will bid after that."

Yasenia knew that the [Sky Forest Empire] was the number two power of the continent, closely followed by the other Empire of the three named [Ocean Chasm Empire], the [Jade Thunderbirds], the [Ocean Swallowing Mermaids], the [Sky Scale Dragons], and the [Nine Golden Body Sect].

Hence, acting humbly as she did after getting the item was necessary.

A strong will to get what she wants without forgetting her position as a minor power was a good quality that other major powers would appreciate.

By the way, the power that was considered the strongest was the [Holy Beast Empire]. This time, they didn't place enough importance on this auction, hence their lack of funds.

As the person from the Royal Family said, other powers didn't speak, and the auctioneer soon finished the counting.

"Sold to the [Astral Sky Clan] for 40,000,000 Flawless Parus!"

Yasenia's smile bloomed, and the people looking at her in the room felt their hearts skip a beat.

The beauty of her relieved and happy laughter was a sight worth painting.

She floated downwards and landed on the stage.

The dragon woman in charge blushed slightly and presented the item to her. "Here it is, the [Sun Obliterating Immortal Body] technique."

Yasenia grabbed it and smiled. "Thank you."

"Cough. Yes, um, you are welcome, Lady Yasenia."

Yasenia stored it and looked toward the number three VIP room. Then, she made a gesture that represented gratefulness. "This junior is grateful."

Then, she flew back toward her own room.

**********************************************

Author: First useful body cultivation get~.

Andrea: Thanks, love.

Yasenia: Anything for my darling~.

Tatyana: Well, what's today's question?

Author: Let's ask. I summon you!

AbbyDoDabby: Hello.

Evelyn: New person!

AbbyDoDabby: Yes. Hello, Evelyn.

Kali: Who are you going to ask today?

AbbyDoDabby: Well, I don't want anybody in mind, so I hope to be answered by whoever knows.

Author: …

AbbyDoDabby: Is it bad?

Author: Hahaha, don't worry. Ask away.

AbbyDoDabby: Okay. Is it possible to change the sex you were born with?

Tatyana: I don't know, to be honest. Is it possible?

Mirrory: It goes against the heavenly order and will be met with tribulations. Moreover, the inner Yin or Yang energy that represents female and male will react with something like a sex change.

Valeria: As Mirrory said, it's not impossible, but it's dangerous, rare, and nonsensical.

Valeria: First, It can easily cripple the baby, and it leads to so many problems, and also, all the trouble you need to go through makes it almost always not worth it.

Valeria: Then… Why would anyone change the sex of a baby? Desire for a girl and giving birth to a boy? People who try those kinds of things are almost always not good parents for not accepting the Nature of their child. Those who go to the lengths of altering the natural body I find them, as an Empress of Nature Spirits, hateful.

AbbyDoDabby: I see.

Valeria: Anyway, I got heated there. Excuse this old woman.

Valeria: In short. Yes, there are extremely rare cases, like, one in a trillion, where it could be done. However, it is neither normal, common or even known as a possibility. After all, even Tatyana was not sure.

Valeria: Besides the example I gave you previously. There are some when it might be necessary. Well, imagine a cultivator that managed to reincarnate without going through the cycle to wash away everything from a past life and lands in the wrong sex body.

Valeria: The difference between soul and body can create complications, in which case, the parents might spend the effort IF they manage to know the root of the cause of their baby's "illness."

Valeria: In that case, though, many, or well, most parents are furious that a reincarnator took over their recently born baby, which leads to the parents killing them. If they are strong enough, soul erasing is possible.

AbbyDoDabby: … So extreme?

Valeria: I don't know if it has happened. These are speculations due to the rareness of the situation. As I said, these are cases so rare that I personally have never seen but only heard about.

Valeria: However, imagine someone suddenly enters your parent's body and erases their soul, taking their place. Would you just accept it with a smile?

AbbyDoDabby: Oh…

Author: Satisfied?

AbbyDoDabby: Yep. Thanks!

Author: Then, this is all for today. You can make your own theories if you want~. Bye-bye!
