After learning of this, Qiangu Dongfeng was immediately overjoyed and he brought Gu Yuena to the auction at once. Find authorized novels in Webnovel，faster updates, better experience，Please click www.novelhall.comfor visiting.

Naturally, given his self-serving motives, he spared no effort in cultivating Gu Yuena in such a manner. Besides Gue Yuena, of the four great spiriters of the Spirit Pagoda, the second youngest spiriter was named Qiangu Zhangting and he was also his grandson. He was thirty-one years old this year and a Title Douluo. 

Qiangu Zhangting could be described as the most outstanding talent of the Qiangu Clan in recent years. Qiangu Dongfeng had also put great effort into cultivating him as his successor. 

Ever since the Qiangu Clan had taken important positions and developed for so many years, the Spirit Pagoda's electoral system only existed in name. It was completely within the Qiangu Clan's control. 

As Qiangu Dongfeng's oldest grandchild, Qiangu Zhangting had been groomed to become his eventual successor. 

In fact, Qiangu Zhangting was genuinely outstanding. He had displayed her superhuman natural abilities. He successfully became a Title Douluo at twenty-eight years old and was then promoted to one of the four great spiriters of Spirit Pagoda. It had been three years since. 

Qiangu Zhangting had never married as he focused all his energy on cultivation. This was until that very year when he met Gu Yuena, eighteen years old at the time, and he fell in love at first sight. 

Naturally, Qiangu Dongfeng tried to match them, but he was stopped by Leng Yaozhu with the excuse that Gu Yuena was still young. 

On the other hand, after Gu Yuena's extraordinary promotion to spiriter, Qiangu Dongfeng saw her as the best possible granddaughter-in-law without question and in all aspects, whether it was her status, abilities, natural talents or appearance! No one could be more suitable than Gu Yuena. 

Qiangu Zhangting recently exited his closed-door cultivation. In three years' time, he had steadily advanced. He was only thirty-one years old, but his cultivation base had already reached rank-4. He was only one step away from being a Hyper Douluo with the Spirit Pagoda's full support behind him. 

Currently, Qiangu Zhangting was putting everything into pursuing Gu Yuena, in the hope that he could win her over. 

Under such circumstances, how could Qiangu Dongfeng stop himself from giving his grandson a helping hand? 

That was the reason he brought Gu Yuena here today and was determined to acquire the Ice God's Heart at all costs. Gu Yuena was capable of reaching Title Douluo-rank very soon. Both she and his grandson would make a well-matched couple, thus becoming the pillars that supported the entire Spirit Pagoda for years to come. 

Qiangu Dongfeng would feel gratified every time he thought about his plans. At his current status, wealth was no longer important. Power was his goal. His greatest hope was for the Qiangu Clan to have a successor and possibly become the great clan whose name passed through the ages in the future. 

"Six point eight billion going once. Six point eight billion, going twice!" The auctioneer's voice was almost growing hoarse from shouting. 

The bidding price for Ice God's Heart today was genuinely not going as he had hoped. According to his superior's instruction, he would need to strive to push the bidding beyond ten billion. Yet, who could have known that the bidder would offer such low a price and not be all that enthusiastic. 

"Seven billion." A voice rang out that sounded like an imperial decree to the auctioneer. 

Qiangu Dongfeng raised the paddle numbered 'one' in his hand and nodded toward the auctioneer. 

The scene was perfectly silent. 

The participants all had masks on their faces, but there was no doubt that the status and identity of the person holding paddle number one was certainly impressive. 

"Seven billion going once." The auctioneer began to count down after inquiring for a higher bid once more. 

Despite his attempts at extolling the product with even greater effort, no more bids were placed. 

"Ahem." Qiangu Dongfeng coughed softly. 

The rest of the people had only heard a soft cough, but it was like thunder to the auctioneer's ears. He felt as if the blood in his body was boiling and his heart was filled with fear at once!

In order to become Heaven Dou Auction Market's head auctioneer, he was, of course, not an ordinary person. His cultivation base was rather powerful. Nevertheless, he felt as if this cough was going to disperse his very soul. 

"Seven billion going twice."

"Seven billion going thrice."

"Bang!" The auction hammer knocked. 

There was nothing that was more important to him than his little life. Moreover, there really was no one else placing a higher bid. 

"Congratulations, honored guest number one. The Ice God's Heart is yours."

Qiangu Dongfeng smiled and said to Gu Yuena by his side, "Na'er, I'll be protecting you with Yaozhu when we return, so you can proceed with your cultivation. I congratulate you beforehand on breaking through to Spirit Domain."

"Thank you, Pagoda Master." Gu Yuena nodded to Qiangu Dongfeng. 

Qiangu Dongfeng smiled. What he hoped for more than anything was that Gu Yuena would address him as 'grandfather-in-law'.

The dazzling Ice God's Heart was sent to Qiangu Dongfeng and Gu Yuena. The case on the outside was doubtlessly made of quality material in order to shield the ultra-low temperature of the Ice God's Heart. On the other hand, Gu Yuena's eyes appeared dazed as she gazed at the Ice God's Heart. That person's silhouette emerged in her mind once again. 

Coincidentally, the man who was on Gu Yuena's mind also had a crystal in his hand at that exact moment. It was similarly also clear as spring water, but it was not cold. It was indeed the Boundless Universe crystal. 

Yue Zhengyu returned for a rest. He would need to recuperate for a while after using the Holy Fusion Skill as he was quite exhausted and slightly injured. 

Tang Wulin had also returned to his room. Before he could begin his cultivation, his mind suddenly turned to the Boundless Universe crystal, which Elder Long described as the treasure that guarded the academy, so he brought it out. 

The crystal was known as a divine weapon, so, of course, it was no mere trifle. Yet, what magical effects did it have? Was it truly capable of bringing greater understanding to a top-grade powerhouse?

Tang Wulin could still clearly remember the moment he first laid eyes on it when he was brought into the sea world. It felt truly marvelous. He felt energetic and refreshed as if his entire person was bathed in cooling water. 

At this point, he had been staring at the Boundless Universe crystal for a long while, but he had yet to return to that wonderful state. 

What sort of mystery did it actually contain?

As he was thinking, Tang Wulin attempted to infuse his soul power into the Boundless Universe crystal hoping to see if this would bring about any changes to it. 

Slowly, he infused his soul power into it, and the Boundless Universe crystal began to react. A misty blue glow emerged from the surface of the crystal. It bloomed outward, making it appear even more magnificent. 

However, there was no reaction other than that. Even after Tang Wulin increased the flow of his soul power, there was still no other occurrence. 

'Weird. Why doesn't it work when I infuse my soul power?'

Meanwhile, he could suddenly hear a voice in his mind. 

"Is that the Boundless Universe Shield?" The voice sounded rather peculiar, yet the familiarity of the voice startled Tang Wulin. 

"Old Tang?" Tang Wulin called out in his heart. 

Yes, had the voice not come from Old Tang? Even so, he sounded slightly astonished. 

The last time he met Old Tang was when he had passed on the Thousand Accusing Fingers to him. It was that very spear technique that put Tang Wulin on the correct path for wielding a spear, which resulted in his creating the King's Path and the Thousand Accusing Fingers afterward as he gradually entered the Spearsoul realm. 

Old Tang had told Tang Wulin that he could reach him after he was done cultivating the Thousand Accusing Fingers. However, after so much had happened, Tang Wulin had yet to summon Old Tang for quite some time. The truth was that he had been elevating at such a rate that he was too busy cultivating a plethora of abilities and had forgotten about Old Tang…

"So you're talking about the Boundless Universe crystal?" asked Tang Wulin in puzzlement. Why had Old Tang referred to it as the Boundless Universe Shield?

Old Tang's spoke excitedly, "Quick, put it on your forehead. Quick, quick!" 

Tang Wulin had never felt Old Tang get so eager. His trust in Old Tang was absolute, so he immediately placed the Boundless Universe crystal between his brows. 

The crystal was cold, but he did not feel anything else when he put it on his forehead. Then, just as Tang Wulin was thinking about whether the Boundless Universe could take him into the marvelous sea world once again, things began to change.
