At that moment, the gazes of over ten thousand people gathered on the stretcher covered by the black cloth. A Class 5 Magical Beast. Even though it was only a corpse, it still attracted the attention of so many people. Many of them understood that this was probably the only time in their lives that they would see a Class 5 Magical Beast.
After all, Class 5 Magical Beasts were not like Earth Saint Masters. They could be casually seen in a few bustling cities. There were even Earth Saint Masters in a few large organizations and sects. However, Class 5 Magical Beasts were different from humans. They usually stayed in their own territories and rarely ventured outside. Even if they did, it would be very difficult for those who had seen them to survive. As a result, Class 5 Magical Beasts were not something that the weak could see.
When the host lifted the black cloth that covered the stretcher, the thing hidden under the black cloth finally appeared before the eyes of the tens of thousands of people who were looking forward to seeing it.
It was a pitch-black Magical Beast the size of an ox. A few people with exceptional eyesight or those who were close enough could even clearly see a pair of short black wings on the back of the Magical Beast.
The Magical Beast silently laid on the stretcher without moving at all. Its body was four to five meters long, making it seem like a small mountain.
"Is this a Class 5 Magical Beast …"
"A Class 5 Magical Beast actually looks like this. It doesn't seem much different from a Class 1 or Class 2 Magical Beast …"
"I've finally seen a Class 5 Magical Beast today. This trip has been worth it. These fifty gold coins were well spent …"
"It really is the corpse of a Class 5 Magical Beast. It looks like it should be a Winged Godbull …"
…
Along with the appearance of the corpse of the fifth rank Magical Beast, the originally silent auction hall was instantly filled with a large number of buzzing sounds. Everyone's eyes were gathered on the corpse of the fifth rank Magical Beast on the display stage, and the sound of discussions and exclamations did not stop. Among them, many had lived for dozens of years, and today was the first time they had seen a fifth rank Magical Beast. Although it was only a corpse, it made them feel satisfied.
"Cough cough!"
Suddenly, a coughing sound spread throughout the auction venue. Following this coughing sound, the noisy auction venue gradually quieted down.
The auctioneer on the stage smiled at the tens of thousands of people participating in the auction. He loudly announced, "Everyone, the corpse of the magical beast before me is the Class 5 Winged Godbull. Even though it has lost its monster core, it's still extremely valuable. I'm sure everyone knows that if you eat the meat of a Class 5 Magical Beast over a long period of time, not only will it strengthen your body, even your Saint Force will increase slightly. Moreover, it's said that it can even increase your chances of breaking through to Earth Saint Master."
The originally quiet auction venue once again became noisy after hearing the last sentence of the auctioneer. Everyone's eyes were heated as they stared at the rank 5 Magical Beast's corpse on the stage. Their hearts were filled with desire and greed.
On the Tian Yuan Continent, there was indeed a rumor that if one ate the meat of Class 5 Magical Beasts over a long period of time, it could increase the chances of a Great Saint Master breaking through to Earth Saint Master.
Earth Saint Master. It was a simple phrase, but in the eyes of the tens of thousands of Great Saint Masters on the Tian Yuan Continent, it was unreachable.
Although there was only a single step between Earth Saint Master and Great Saint Master, this single step had blocked the path of countless people. On the Tian Yuan Continent, who knew how many people had lost their lives trying to break through to Earth Saint Master.
This was because the only way to break through from Great Saint Master to Earth Saint Master was to shatter the Saint Weapon in one's body into powder and absorb a large amount of energy to refine the powder one by one. Only by doing this could one be considered to have successfully broken through to Earth Saint Master.
However, the Saint Weapon was everyone's Saint Weapon. Once it was damaged, the owner would be injured as well. Once the Saint Weapon was shattered, there would only be two outcomes. The best outcome would be losing all of one's Saint Force and becoming a cripple who could no longer cultivate. The worst outcome would be directly losing one's life.
As a result, less than one percent of the people on the Tian Yuan Continent could successfully break through to Earth Saint Master. Once they failed, they would either become a cripple or die.
Just this single step had blocked the path of countless Great Saint Masters. There were even quite a few Great Saint Masters who were unwilling to take the risk and would rather remain at the same level of cultivation until they died of old age.
As a result, the small chance of breaking through to Earth Saint Master from eating the flesh of a Class 5 Magical Beast moved everyone present.
At this moment, the auctioneer's loud voice rang out once more, "Now, we will be auctioning off the corpse of the Class 5 Heavenly Winged Bull. The starting price is five thousand purple crystal coins and each increment must be no less than a hundred purple crystal coins."
"I'll bid six thousand purple crystal coins …"
As soon as the auctioneer finished speaking, someone from a VIP room immediately made a bid.
"Six thousand five hundred purple crystal coins …" Another voice rang out from the VIP room.
"Six thousand six hundred purple crystal coins …"
"Six thousand seven hundred purple crystal coins …"
"Seven thousand purple crystal coins …"
Throughout the auction venue, shocking bids came from the VIP rooms one after another. At this time, no one in the auction venue could get a word in edgewise.
Wanting to bid for a Class 5 Magical Beast was not something that could be done with just money. At the same time, one needed to have a certain level of strength. Otherwise, the Class 5 Magical Beast would probably be snatched away as soon as it left the auction house.
As a result, the people who were bidding for the Class 5 Magical Beast all had a certain level of strength. They were not worried about it being snatched away from them.
"Eight thousand purple crystal coins …"
The bidding for the Class 5 Magical Beast was extremely intense. In the blink of an eye, the price had shot up to eight thousand purple crystal coins. Moreover, the rising momentum showed no signs of stopping.
"Eight thousand five hundred purple crystal coins. This Class 5 Magical Beast's corpse is ours for sure. Anyone who dares to compete for it will become an enemy of the Youlan Clan." A deep voice rang out from a VIP room. The voice was filled with arrogance. Clearly, the owner of the voice was determined to obtain the Class 5 Magical Beast's corpse.
"The Youlan Clan? Could it be the Youlan Clan from Flaming Cloud City?"
"It's actually the Youlan Clan. The Youlan Clan is the number one clan in Flaming Cloud City. They are extremely powerful. Even the City Lord of Flaming Cloud City treats the Youlan Clan with respect. I didn't expect them to participate as well."
Hearing the words' Youlan Family ', the auction hall was instantly filled with a buzz of discussion. Even though the Youlan Family was not a local power in Phoenix Sun City, they were still very powerful and had quite a bit of influence in the nearby area.
"Haha, people of the Youlan Clan, you can't say that. This is an auction house. No matter what the item is, it will be won by the highest bidder. Our Harido Clan is bidding ten thousand purple crystal coins. This Class 5 Magical Beast's corpse is ours for sure." Just as the person from the Youlan Clan finished speaking, a slightly aged voice rang out from the VIP room opposite them.
"Harido Clan? Isn't that a power from Yellow Earth City? Yellow Earth City is a thousand li away from Phoenix City. I didn't expect them to come as well."
"The Harido Clan is extremely low-key. Although they aren't even in the top ten of Yellow Earth City, no power dares to offend them. Even the biggest clan in Yellow Earth City, the Bai Clan, doesn't dare to underestimate the Harido Clan."
"That's right. I remember that a few years ago, the number one clan of Yellow Earth City, the Bai Clan, had a profligate son who offended the little princess of the Harido Clan. In the end, he was beaten up by the little princess' personal guards. After that, the Bai Clan didn't even dare to fart."
"It is said that the Harido Clan is the most powerful clan in Yellow Earth City. It's just that they are extremely low-key and don't reveal themselves. There are even some people who don't know of the Harido Clan …"
As soon as the Harido Family's words fell, the entire auction hall was filled with a buzz of discussion. For a long time, no one made a bid. Even the Youlan Family, who had been determined to obtain this Class 5 Magical Beast, had suddenly become mute.
"Yellow Earth City, Harido Clan!" Jianchen's heart stirred as he instantly memorized this clan. From the current situation, he could tell that the Harido Clan wasn't simple.
After a moment of silence, a middle-aged man's voice finally sounded from a private room, "Haha, I didn't think that even the Harido Clan would be so interested in this Class 5 Magical Beast. Since that's the case, then our Muda Clan will not participate in the fight for this Magical Beast. I hope that the Harido Clan will let us have the next Class 5 Magical Beast."
"Hehe, of course, one Magic Beast is enough for our Harlidor Clan. As for the remaining one, we will not participate in the contest." A slightly aged voice rang out from the Harlidor Clan with a faint smile on his face.
"Since that's the case, then our Flowing Cloud Sword Pavilion will also give the Harido Clan some face and give up on this Class 5 Magical Beast."
"Our Yang Gate will also give up on this Class 5 Magical Beast's corpse …"
… …
Following the Harido Clan's declaration, all the powerful factions gave the Harido Clan some face and gave up on competing for this Class 5 Magical Beast.
"Haha, on behalf of the Harido Clan, this Old Man thanks everyone for going easy on us." The old voice from the Harido Clan said with a faint smile.
Soon after, the Heavenly Winged Divine Bull's corpse was successfully purchased by the Harido Clan for ten thousand purple crystal coins.
"Now, we will begin the auction for the second Class 5 Magical Beast's corpse. Men, bring it up!" Following the auctioneer's words, another stretcher was brought up. This stretcher was also covered by a large black cloth.
This time, the auctioneer didn't waste any time. He directly lifted the black cloth and said, "This Magical Beast is also a Class 5 Magical Beast, the Quickcloud Beast. At the same time, it is also the last item in this auction. The rules are the same as last time. The starting price is five thousand purple crystal coins, and each increase must not be less than a hundred purple crystal coins."
Following the auctioneer's words, terrifying numbers were once again announced from the various boxes. Perhaps it was because this was the last Class 5 Magical Beast, but the competition this time was much more intense than before. Very soon, the price had risen from five thousand purple crystal coins to fifteen thousand purple crystal coins.
"Sixteen thousand purple crystal coins …"
"Seventeen thousand purple crystal coins …"
"Twenty thousand purple crystal coins …"
In less than the time it took to brew a cup of tea, the price of the Quickcloud Beast had risen to a terrifying twenty thousand purple crystal coins. Moreover, there were still quite a few factions competing for it.
Hearing the constantly rising price, Jianchen couldn't help but reveal a trace of a smile. Although the first Class 5 Magical Beast's corpse had only been sold for ten thousand purple crystal coins, which was a bit low, the second Magical Beast in front of him could probably make up for the first Magical Beast's low price.
"My Muda Clan bids twenty-two thousand purple crystal coins …"
"My Youlan Clan bids twenty-three thousand purple crystal coins …"
"My Jialuo Clan bids twenty-three thousand purple crystal coins …"
"The Streamcloud Sword Pavilion bids twenty-four thousand purple crystal coins …"
"My Yang Sect bids twenty-five thousand purple crystal coins …"
"My Black Cloud Sect bids twenty-six thousand purple crystal coins …"
The bids were incessant. This was the last Class 5 Magical Beast's corpse, and the various factions were fiercely competing for it. Everyone was increasing the price by one thousand purple crystal coins.
Very soon, the price of this Class 5 Magical Beast's corpse had risen to forty thousand purple crystal coins.
"The Youlan Clan bids forty-five thousand purple crystal coins."
Following the Youlan Clan's bid of forty-five thousand purple crystal coins, the entire auction house immediately quieted down. Only the heavy breathing of countless people could be heard. Forty-five thousand purple crystal coins had already exceeded the limit of what some factions could bear.
Although Class 5 Magical Beasts' corpses were rare, they could still be seen in some large cities. This price had already exceeded the value of a Class 5 Magical Beast. After all, the Quickcloud Beast was only an ordinary Class 5 Magical Beast, and not an exotic species like the Golden Striped Silver Snake.
After a moment of silence, the originally lively auction house was finally broken by a voice, "My Muda Clan bids forty-six thousand purple crystal coins."
The Muda Clan had once again surpassed the Youlan Clan in terms of price.
"Bang!" Just as the Muda Clan's voice faded, a dull sound suddenly came from the box belonging to the Youlan Clan.
In the VIP box of the Youlan Clan, there were a total of five middle-aged men and an old man. A middle-aged man wearing a white robe heavily slammed his fist on the incense wood table in front of him, smashing a hole in it.
"The Muda Clan actually dares to make things difficult for my Youlan Clan. Very well, I will make you regret this." The middle-aged man wearing the white robe had a sullen expression as he gnashed his teeth and spoke.
As for the other people, their expressions weren't very good either.
"If this continues, I'm afraid that the price of this Class 5 Magical Beast will rise to a level that even we won't be able to bear." The old man's expression was somewhat gloomy as he spoke.
"Other than this, what else can we do? This Class 5 Magical Beast has attracted many people. Right now, the factions that are still competing for it aren't any weaker than our Youlan Clan." The middle-aged man wearing the white robe spoke somewhat angrily.
"The Flowing Cloud Sword Pavilion bids forty-seven thousand purple crystal coins …"
Just at this moment, another bid was heard. Seeing the price rising higher and higher, the expressions of the Youlan Clan members became increasingly unsightly.
