"Ten million Immortal Stones!"
Yan Wei collected his thoughts after Sōin gave up. He quickly said as if he was afraid that Mo Qingyun would go back on his word, "Congratulations to the young master for winning the auction item, the Mysterious Stone, at the price of ten million Immortal Stones."
As soon as Yan Wei finished speaking, he immediately ordered someone to deliver the mysterious stone to Mo Qingyun.
Everyone wore a disdainful expression when they saw Yan Wei's action. They were mocking Yan Wei.
This old man was too evil. He was in such a hurry to give the Mysterious Stone to Mo Qingyun. It was obvious that he was worried that Mo Qingyun would regret his decision.
A while later, the Mysterious Stone was delivered to the pavilion of the Violet Jade Luan Phoenix Tribe by a maidservant.
Han Wanqing wore a pained expression when he saw the Mysterious Stone. He said to Mo Qingyun with disappointment, "Nephew Mo, you're being too wasteful. Ten million Immortal Stones are enough to buy a Quasi-Sacred Weapon, but you've bought a useless stone."
Even someone like Han Wanqing felt pained when he saw Mo Qingyun spending ten million Immortal Stones on a useless stone.
In his opinion, Mo Qingyun's current actions could be called wasteful in a nice way, but to put it bluntly, he was squandering.
Mo Qingyun was well aware of Han Wanqing's thoughts.
However, the Mysterious Stone was related to the secret of the Light Gate Martial Spirit. It was impossible for him to explain it to Han Wanqing.
"Uncle Han, thank you for your concern. I'll remember your words."
Mo Qingyun nodded humbly at Han Wanqing's kindness. He said with a smile, "Uncle Han, I don't have enough Immortal Stones with me. Please pay for me for now. I'll return the Immortal Stones I owe you in the future."
"…"
Hearing Mo Qingyun's words, Han Wanqing and the others were dumbfounded, unable to express their feelings with words.
After all this time, they still needed them to dig out immortal stones. Mo Qingyun was too much of a scammer.
No wonder he did not care about Mo Qingyun's bid. He did not need to pay for it himself.
Although he was speechless at Mo Qingyun's actions, Han Wanqing still took out immortal stones and temporarily paid for Mo Qingyun.
No matter what, he had just made a promise to Mo Qingyun. He couldn't go back on his word now.
"Thank you, Uncle Han!"
Seeing that Han Wanqing had paid the immortal stones for him, Mo Qingyun nodded gratefully and kept the mysterious stone into the Five Directional Pagoda.
After keeping the mysterious stone, Mo Qingyun exchanged a few more words with Han Wanqing and the others. Then, he turned his gaze to the auction stage below.
Looking at Mo Qingyun's calm expression, Han Wanqing suddenly felt that he could not see through Mo Qingyun anymore.
He realized that no matter what, the young man in front of him would not change his expression even if a mountain collapsed. He gave off a feeling of calmness.
"It seems that I've underestimated him. His state of mind is stronger than mine."
Han Wanqing sighed in his heart and decided to reevaluate Mo Qingyun in his heart.
After thinking about it this way, Han Wanqing felt relieved and turned his attention to the auction stage.
In the following auction, Mo Qingyun did not make any more moves. He just watched silently.
Seeing Mo Qingyun's performance, Han Wanqing looked at Mo Qingyun with admiration and nodded continuously. He thought to himself, "From this little guy's calmness, he shouldn't have bought that mysterious stone on impulse. He most likely has his own ideas."
After the previous item was auctioned off, Yan Wei took out a simple crown.
"Ladies and gentlemen, the next item will be the finale of this auction, the Eight Treasure Purple Soul Crown."
Yan Wei held the crown in his hand and briefly introduced it to the crowd. Then, with a solemn expression, he said, "Rumor has it that the Eight-Treasure Purple Soul Crown was refined by the Tongtian Divine Ancestor and given to his disciple, the Fire Phoenix Holy Maiden. With the help of the Eight-Treasure Purple Soul Crown, the Fire Phoenix Holy Maiden's cultivation rose to the Taiyi Xuan Immortal Realm in just 30,000 years …"
Yan Wei held the Eight-Treasure Purple Soul Crown in his hand and slowly explained its origin. Everyone's eyes lit up as they listened.
This was especially so for the Ancestors of some powerful clans. Their cultivation had been stuck at the Daluo Golden Immortal Realm for many years.
If they could not improve further, they might have to leave this world regretfully because their lifespan was nearing its end.
Who would have thought that such a treasure would appear in this auction? How could they remain calm?
"If nothing unexpected happens, the following auction will be a fierce battle between giants."
Looking at the Eight-Treasure Purple Soul Crown in Yan Wei's hand, Han Wanqing could not help but sigh with emotion.
If he could obtain this treasure, his chances of breaking through to the Taiyi Xuan Immortal Realm would increase by at least 40 to 50 percent.
Unfortunately, with the wealth of the Purple Jade Luan Phoenix Clan, it was impossible for them to obtain this item from others.
"Yan Wei, let's cut the crap. Just announce the price of this item."
"That's right. We know more about the rumors of this treasure than you do."
"Do you think those who don't know about this item will have the financial resources to bid for it?"
"That's right. What's the use of telling those who don't have the financial resources to bid for it?"
…
Seeing that Yan Wei did not announce the price, some of the Ancestors of the powerful clans urged him with dissatisfaction.
Upon hearing these people's words, everyone's expression changed slightly. Some dissatisfaction appeared on their faces.
However, due to the strength of these people, no one dared to express their dissatisfaction. They suppressed their displeasure.
There was no helping it. Reality was cruel. If one was not strong enough, one could only endure the injustice.
"Haha, in that case, I won't waste any more time."
Upon hearing the words of the Ancestors, Yan Wei immediately smiled embarrassedly and did not continue to delay. He said, "The starting price of this Eight-Treasure Purple Soul Crown is 100,000,000 high-grade Celestial Stones. Each increment must be no less than 1,000,000 high-grade Celestial Stones."
100,000,000 high-grade Celestial Stones was only the starting price?
Everyone's expressions changed drastically when they heard Yan Wei's price. Their hearts trembled.
This price was too frightening!
"100,000,000 high-grade Celestial Stones is only the starting price."
When Mo Qingyun heard this number, he was shocked to the point his heart trembled. He sighed emotionally and said, "It looks like I'm still too poor. Compared to these powerful clans, my foundation is still too weak."
"Worthy Nephew Mo, these clans have accumulated their wealth for tens of thousands of years. You don't have to worry about it."
Han Wanqing guessed Mo Qingyun's thoughts when he saw the change in his expression. He immediately comforted Mo Qingyun.
Hearing Han Wanqing's explanation, Mo Qingyun smiled faintly and nodded. "Many thanks for Uncle Han's explanation. I know what to do."
Mo Qingyun and Han Wanqing chatted as they watched the other clans compete for the item.
