Urban Immortal Doctor Master
Chapter 826 - 826 825 The First Performance of the Heavenly Mechanism

826: 825: The First Performance of the Heavenly Mechanism 826: 825: The First Performance of the Heavenly Mechanism “Thank you, my lord.” All the captured members of the Shadow Clan knelt down.

They had already fallen into despair but hadn’t expected a turn of events like this.

“Stand up.

Why doesn’t the Hidden Clan care about you?”

“My lord, we’re only low-ranking members of the Shadow Clan.

The nobility would rather sell us for money.

Those people earlier could simply pay some Immortal Crystals when leaving and take us out of the Shadow Clan.”

So that’s how it is.

Tang Feng came to terms with it—whether on Earth or in the Immortal Realm, it was always the same.

To protect oneself, one must continuously grow stronger.

“What are your plans going forward?”

“We are willing to follow you, my lord.” These members of the Hidden Clan weren’t foolish.

Being saved proved that Tang Feng had a kind heart.

Following such a master wouldn’t be too bad—certainly better than being sold off repeatedly.

“Alright, then you can follow me.” Tang Feng didn’t refuse.

The two women with him were often silent, and having female members among the Shadow Clan could help occupy their time.

Besides, cultivating these Shadow Clan members could definitely turn them into a significant force.

“Where else can I find more of your kind?”

“My lord, there’s a marketplace, but the Shadow Clan members there are expensive.

Most of them are descendants from declining families.”

“Take me to have a look.”

Tang Feng’s group arrived at the marketplace, which was selling only members of the Shadow Clan.

All were locked with Immortal Chains, their cultivation sealed, completely unable to control their fate.

“Young master, may I ask if you’re looking to buy Shadow Slaves?” A rotund noble of the Shadow Clan approached them.

“Do you have any quality goods?”

“Yes, yes indeed.

Please follow me, young master.” The rotund noble led Tang Feng into the trading floor.

There was a row of rooms inside, with high-ranking Shadow Slaves locked up in each one.

“These were once distinguished members of the Shadow Clan.

However, the Shadow Slaves here aren’t sold at fixed prices—they are auctioned off to the highest bidder.

The auction begins in an hour.

Young master can wait here.”

“Alright, I’ll wait here for a while.” Tang Feng swept his Divine Sense across each room.

He unexpectedly discovered a hidden expert—a woman whose cultivation was undoubtedly at the peak of the God-casting Realm.

To have been captured with such cultivation, there must be something unusual at play.

Aside from the woman, Tang Feng also took note of several male Shadow Clan members, whose strength was at the Venerate Palace Realm.

Honestly, seeing beings of such cultivation being sold like this was quite pitiful.

They seemed to have already resigned themselves to their fate.

As for that woman, however, her entire being radiated an icy aura.

She didn’t regard herself as a mere Shadow Slave at all.

Her demeanor far surpassed that of the other Shadow Clan members here—she was likely the centerpiece of the auction.

Acquiring her wouldn’t be easy; it might even provoke major enemies.

However, passing up such a powerful Shadow Slave would be regrettable.

Tang Feng intended to keep her close by.

Who would suspect that a formidable expert hidden within his shadow could become a decisive weapon in battle?

An hour later, the hall was packed with hundreds of people.

There were few Shadow Clan members present; most came from other planets.

The majority were from the Human Clan and appeared quite influential.

Still, their cultivation wasn’t exceptional—there were only a few in the God-casting Realm.

When they saw the female Shadow Slave with such cultivation, their desire was unmistakable.

Unfortunately, her appearance was obscured by her hair, though her aura was unaffected in the slightest.

Standing there, she attracted everyone’s attention.

Faced with countless impassioned gazes, the marketplace’s owner grinned delightedly.

Today would certainly bring him immense profit.

The auction began, and competition was fierce.

Out of the hundreds present, Tang Feng managed to secure only five individuals.

However, these five had the greatest potential.

The reason Tang Feng chose these five was simple: He used the Heavenly Mechanism Technique and discovered that their destinies were broad and promising.

Though they faced small tribulations, they would overcome them safely.

Others weren’t bad either, but compared to these five, they fell short.

After securing them, Tang Feng didn’t fight for any others—there was no need to overexert.

Who could compete with him anyway?

As for the woman, her fate was less clear.

This could mean one of two things—either she would die young, or she would rise to become a formidable force.

Given how deeply she concealed herself, the latter seemed more likely.

No matter the case, Tang Feng was determined to acquire her.

All eyes were fixed on her.

Without saying a word, her mere appearance was enough to drive the crowd wild.

The bidding began at ten thousand Immortal Crystals and rapidly climbed to a million—an amount far exceeding the value of such slaves.

With this many Immortal Crystals, one could cultivate two God-casting Realm individuals.

In the end, only three competitors remained.

Tang Feng had yet to place a bid.

What was the point of jumping in early?

He wanted to strike with finality.

The remaining three were clearly individuals of noteworthy status.

Each of them was accompanied by at least four God-casting Realm experts.

In the Immortal Domain, this already marked them as first-rate Immortals.

Yet, they were still servants—a testament to the strength of their respective families.

In no time, the bidding reached three million—a sum even a Great Sect would struggle to produce.

This wasn’t Immortal Stones but Immortal Crystals.

The seller was almost dumbfounded, delirious with joy.

He hadn’t expected a single Shadow Slave to fetch such a steep price.

And it wasn’t over—two bidders remained.

Finally, when the bid hit 3.5 million, the hall fell silent.

Everyone stared blankly at the winning bidder, bewildered.

Just for one woman—was it worth it?

Little did they know, the noble’s heart was bleeding.

He had only bid for appearances’ sake.

To truly spend so many Immortal Crystals on a Shadow Slave was unthinkable.

Unable to outbid his opponent, he was forced to accept the loss.

At that moment, a heavenly voice made the noble exhale a long breath of relief.

Tang Feng placed a bid of 3.6 million.

He had gauged his rival’s limit.

The marketplace’s owner congratulated Tang Feng, practically treating him like a god of fortune.

Tang Feng’s extravagant spending drew further attention.

Seeing the people surrounding Tang Feng, many began scheming.

Young, wealthy, and lacking protectors—it wasn’t hard to come up with a plan.

The desire for shortcuts and theft was strong among many.

Daring risks were even more prevalent.

Tang Feng stood out too much, and as an unfamiliar face, it would be strange if no one tried to make a move against him.

After paying the Immortal Crystals, the seller handed the keys to Tang Feng.

The six Shadow Slaves were now his.

Upon leaving the marketplace, Tang Feng immediately restored their freedom.

However, their cultivation remained sealed.

Only after imprinting them with the Spirit Control Technique did he release their cultivation.

Even though they were reluctant, they could not escape reality at this point.

The female Shadow Slave remained silent, her icy demeanor unchanged, her aura repelling anyone from approaching.

Tang Feng took them to the inn where he was staying, then treated them to a lavish meal.

After the meal, Tang Feng invited all six to his room.

“I only have one request—don’t think of yourselves as lesser beings.

Under me, there is no such thing as slavery, nor will I restrict your freedom.

As for what I require of you, I’ll tell you later.

For now, I’ll address you as Shadow One through Shadow Six,” Tang Feng said.

“Understood, my lord.”

“Shadow One, stay here.

The rest of you may return to your rooms.” Tang Feng kept the woman behind.

“Do you know why I asked you to stay?” Looking at her, Tang Feng smiled faintly.
