Ascending the Heavens as an Evil God

Qian Han had built up his forces in the Myriad Heavens Universe for many years, so he naturally had an elite intelligence team under his command, which collected and analyzed all kinds of information for him.

And information the intelligence team gave an accuracy rating of A for could basically be confirmed as truth.

Qian Han opened the intelligence report and swiftly scanned it. Just a moment later, he couldn't help feeling energized—there was a 90% chance the target described in this report was Gu Nan!

He suddenly appeared in Nirvana Heaven, forcibly smashed apart the protective barrier with just the power of his physical body, and easily killed four Void Cutter cultivators…

Plus, it wasn’t hard to check the identities of his companions either. All of them were Void Cutter experts from Zi Luo Heaven. Didn't Gu Nan appear in Zi Luo Heaven before?!

Even with Qian Han's calm and experienced personality, at this time, he actually beamed with joy. Gu Nan's brief but frightening background truly gave him too much pressure.

He was extremely afraid that someone as goal-oriented as Gu Nan would refuse to interfere with any worldly matters and vanish without a trace from now on.

As for the power Gu Nan displayed, he wasn’t surprised. After all, information obtained from words wasn’t as impactful as personally witnessing the event.

Besides, Qian Han suspected Gu Nan of belonging to the golden giants clan. In that case, wouldn’t it be perfectly normal for him to have superb physical abilities?

Gu Nan didn’t hide his purpose and whereabouts from Wu Jing, so that information naturally fell into Qian Han's hands as well.

"Life-death stone, the capital of Qinggu Domain?" Qian Han revealed a trace of a smile as his figure slowly disappeared from his original location and quickly left this plane.

……

Three days wasn’t long, nor was it short.

Gu Nan sat quietly in the house, and soon the day of the auction arrived. In the past three days, he also didn’t stop making discreet inquiries into the auction.

Unfortunately, there was still no news about the mysterious seller, let alone finding out where the goods were stored.

Or rather, for auctions of this level, the auction items were definitely secretly stored in other planes, where they would be slowly transported into Nirvana Heaven once the auction began.

Thus, unless someone could snatch the treasures from right under countless powerful people’s noses, there was no need to worry about security.

When it was time for the auction, Gu Nan tore open the void directly and descended at the scene, but he didn’t bring the half-dragon girl, nor did he have any admission ticket.

However, there was no chance of a cliche drama like "being refused admission" happening—anyone who could arrive using this method was bound to be at least Void Cutter Realm!

Do Void Cutter experts need a ticket to enter?

Seeing Gu Nan's arrival, two people immediately went up to him. After greeting him, they respectfully handed a black label with a number on it, and one person then led Gu Nan into the venue.

Gu Nan was led to a quiet room, which was clearly on the second floor of the venue. Through windows on the floor, he could get a panoramic view of the entire scene.

Before long, the lights in the venue began to dim, and all of them focused on the central stage. An enchanting woman with a lithe figure and a snake’s lower body slithered up to the stage.

A lot of clamoring instantly came from the audience as they laughed boisterously and made a lot of noise.

After all, there were only a few Void Cutter figures here, so the main participants in the auction were still the large number of Prodigious cultivators, and this lamia woman was obviously popular and well-received among them.

"That's Leng Yedie!"

"Didn’t a certain bigshot take her away? To think she would be the auctioneer here…"

"What’s taken away can also be given back! Tsk tsk, I really want to know who this auction’s mysterious seller is. What an expensive auction!"

Similar conversations kept popping up, mostly expressing surprise at the capabilities of the auction organizers.

Leng Yedie was a celebrity in Qinggu Domain, which was why she was the auctioneer here. That meant the other domains naturally had similar candidates acting as auctioneers—this auction was simultaneously held in all sixteen domains!

Just when people were constantly sighing in amazement at the seller's wealth and power, Leng Yedie finally spoke cheerfully from the stage:

"Ladies and gentlemen, fellow cultivators…"

The opening was nothing special, but Leng Yedie's voice was soft and tactful, yet it contained a strange feeling of disharmony that tickled people's hearts.

Gu Nan, however, sat in the room on the second floor, his face expressionless from beginning to end as he coldly looked down at the auction.

The opening was over, and the first auction item was being brought up slowly, but this wasn’t Gu Nan's goal.

According to the auction list, the life-death stone he needed would be the fourth item to appear on stage.

At this moment, however, he smelled a strange fragrance slowly emanating from the room, and an illusion began to appear in front of his eyes.

It was a Buddha in a golden kasaya, saluting him with both hands placed together.

"Amitabha. Benefactor, please go to hell."

……

The auction wasn’t progressing very quickly, but the atmosphere was very enthusiastic. Leng Yedie was clearly an excellent auctioneer. Not only could she whip up the mood, but she could also drag out the auction and raise the price as much as possible.

So the first three items alone had already sold at sky-high prices, and when the fourth item was ready to be unveiled, the atmosphere at the scene had also reached its peak.

"Life-death stone! Life-death stone!"

"Stop talking and just bring the top-quality life-death stone up already!"

The first three rounds of auctions had completely heated up the atmosphere, and the audience was more and more engrossed in the auction items.

Life-death stones were a specialty product of Nirvana Heaven, but that didn’t mean there was no demand for them from the locals!

On the contrary, the outside world would only use life-death stones on special occasions, while many locals took advantage of life-death stones to cultivate or even create new techniques, so life-death stones had become a routine necessity for them.

Leng Yedie lived up to their enthusiasm. A crystal stone almost as big as a palm was slowly moved onto the auction table.

The shouting from below became more and more exuberant, but Leng Yedie didn’t read the classic auction item intro.

Instead, she covered her mouth with a chuckle. "Everyone, let me tell you something else: in these simultaneous auctions across sixteen domains, the fourth auction item for all sixteen domains is a life-death stone!"

Her words puzzled everyone, and even the clamoring died down a bit. Simultaneously auctioning life-death stones—what did this mean?

On the stage, Leng Yedie’s laughter didn’t stop, but it began to reveal a coldness that wasn’t there before. "Of course life-death stones… are used for the formation cores of the Grand Nirvana Killing Formation!"

As her voice fell, endless crimson light surged up from the ground, and killing intent that overflowed to the heavens enveloped the entire scene. The crimson light was most intense on the center stage where Leng Yedie was located.

Only then did people discover that the three treasures previously auctioned off were also glowing blood-red as they automatically flew out from the hands of the three buyers… Clearly, they were auxiliary materials for the grand formation!

"Trap! This auction is a trap from beginning to end!" Someone realized that something was wrong, but their reaction seemed a little slow.

"Grand Nirvana Killing Formation? Isn't this an ancient formation?! To think there are still people who know it…"

It wasn’t like the cultivators of Nirvana Heaven had never considered the possibility of the mysterious seller harboring ill intentions, but so many powerful figures had joined the auction. Who could’ve imagined that the seller would truly dare to attack them?!

Someone else began to ask the person on stage, "Leng Yedie, your family and sect are all here. What's in it for you?"

But Leng Yedie just sneered. The seductive aura around her slowly faded. Finally, she placed her hands together, as if in meditative prayer.

"The Buddha is merciful. Since Benefactors aren’t willing to place down the butcher’s knife, then you might as well go to hell."

She said this with both coldness and compassion; two completely different auras were revealed at the same time.

The audience was unable to respond for a while. The scarlet light that kept on appearing from the ground sealed their laws and gradually devoured their power.

Someone began to glance back at the second floor, where all the bigshots were sitting. ‘Don’t tell me they’ll just sit back and watch this happen?’

Of course Leng Yedie noticed their actions, but she didn't do anything. The sneer on her face just became more pronounced.

Those Void Cutter cultivators were naturally their priority targets. Another large formation had already silently activated just to trap them.

If all went well, the Void Cutter experts should all be trapped inside the Buddhist Realm.

‘Now we just need to place the life-death stone at the formation core and activate the Grand Nirvana Killing Formation… Eh?’

When Leng Yedie turned her head, she was shocked to find a figure standing right next to her, playing with the life-death stone in his hand with great interest.

……

Beyond the endless starry sky, a young girl was sitting on a black lotus, chanting something.

A figure appeared in front of her and whispered, "Buddhist Ancestor, an unforeseen event has occurred in Nirvana Heaven… Someone broke out of the Buddhist Realm."

"Oh?" The young girl slowly opened her eyes and said indifferently, "Just in time. This one has finally returned to Star Ruler Realm. Let's see how strong this troublemaker is."
