Sorry, there was a lot of work to do at the office today. I've been busy until now, so the update of the first five chapters will be delayed.
…!
Hidden Art Loft, auction venue!
Since Feng Yun hadn't directly explained the effects of the Dao Comprehension Stone and the specific cultivation realm it targeted, everyone wasn't too sure about it.
If the Enlightenment Stone's effects were not what they had guessed, which was that it could increase the power of enlightenment of Martial Emperors and Martial Sages, but only for Martial Grandmasters and Martial Kings, then the Enlightenment Stone itself would only be worth three to four million spirit stones.
Six to seven million spirit stones was still a loss for the people who had participated in the auction earlier.
However, if the price exceeded eight million spirit stones, even the guests in the private rooms would have to think twice, let alone the people in the hall.
After all, the real goal of the VIPs in the private room was the treasures that were about to be revealed.
If they wasted too many spirit stones on the Enlightenment Stone, it would affect the subsequent auctions.
Seeing that the price of the Enlightenment Stone had exceeded eight million spirit stones, it showed signs of slowing down. It was still far from the price he had expected. Feng Yun reached out and touched his nose.
"Ten million eighth-grade spirit stones!"
Just as Feng Yun reached out to touch his nose, a bid suddenly came from private room 40, which had not participated in the auction before.
Furthermore, the price of the Enlightenment Stone had broken through the ten million mark.
"I knew it!"
When Feng Yun heard the bid of 10,000,000 spirit stones from Room 40, an ecstatic smile appeared on his face, and he slapped his thigh with all his might as he yelled, "That's right!
"How can the Enlightenment Stone, which is one of the few things in the Tianxuan Continent that can increase one's power of enlightenment, only be worth eight million spirit stones?"
"It looks like the guests in private room 40 have already seen the value of this Enlightenment Stone and are planning to fight for it."
"Dear guests, friends, what are you waiting for? Hurry up and bid for such a precious treasure!"
Although Feng Yun wanted to exaggerate the value of the Enlightenment Stone to increase the price, he knew that the Enlightenment Stone, which had lost part of its energy, was only worth two to three million spirit stones at most.
If he exaggerated the effects of the Enlightenment Stone too much and the guests in the private rooms won the bid, it would be easy for them to find fault with him. It would negatively affect the Heavenly Fragrance Pavilion's auction.
Therefore, he could only make use of his arrangements to raise the price of the Enlightenment Stone.
"Consecrator Feng is right. There are very few treasures in the Profound Sky Continent that can be used to increase one's perception. The Enlightenment Stone is one of the few treasures that are most suitable for increasing one's perception."
Just as Feng Yun was urging the crowd to continue bidding, the middle-aged man who had participated in the Blood Dragon Stone auction at the beginning hurriedly stood up and chimed in.
"Although I, Lin Jiahao, am not very rich, for my son, I am willing to pay 11 million level-eight first-grade spirit stones."
"Twelve million first grade eighth tier spirit stones!"
As if he was moved by the words of the owner of Room 40 and the middle-aged man, the owner of Room 71 immediately placed a bid of 11 million spirit stones.
"Yu Haoran, didn't I already tell you that this Enlightenment Stone is worth at most two million spirit stones? Why are you still participating in this auction?"
Seeing that Yu Haoran had ignored his advice and not only had he participated in the auction for the Enlightenment Stone, but he had also placed a bid that was five times the price of the Enlightenment Stone. This made Thaling very confused and dissatisfied.
"Thaling, don't be angry. I don't want to bid for this Enlightenment Stone. I just want to put on a show with someone!"
Faced with Thaling's confusion and dissatisfaction, Yu Haoran hurriedly tried to console and explain.
"Put on a show!"
Thaling looked at Feng Yun, then at the middle-aged man in the private room. His confused eyes gradually brightened.
"Consecrator!" Thaling pointed at the middle-aged man and asked with a smile.
"It's not just that middle-aged man. The person in Room 40 is also a consecrator arranged by the auction," Yu Haoran said with a cold smile.
"You can play if you want, but you have to know your limits. Don't go for wool and come home shorn!"
Knowing that Yu Haoran was taking revenge on Feng Yun for using him to raise the price of the Black Gold True Iron, Thaling did not object. He only reminded Yu Haoran to quit while he was ahead.
"Thaling, don't worry. I know what I'm doing," Yu Haoran said confidently.
"It looks like the VIP in Room 71 has already realized the value of the Enlightenment Stone. He has placed a bid of twelve million spirit stones. What are you waiting for?"
Yu Haoran's bid caused the originally worried Feng Yun to heave a sigh of relief. This meant that the owner of Room 71 was willing to take a gamble.
Furthermore, 12 million spirit stones were enough to satisfy the person who had entrusted the auction of the Dao Comprehension Stone to the auction house.
However, right at this moment, Room 3 suddenly made a bid with a high price.
"Fifteen million level-eight, first-grade spirit stones!"
Yu Haoran frowned slightly. He looked at Room 3 in confusion. He did not understand why an elder of the Yuxu Temple would be so interested in an ordinary Enlightenment Stone.
But when he saw the dissatisfaction in Feng Yun's eyes, an idea suddenly flashed through his mind.
At the same time, the questions that had puzzled him in his previous life were gradually resolved by this idea.
"Alright! I didn't think that there would be such a relationship between the two of you. Since you want to play, I'll play a big game with you. "
After confirming that there was an unspeakable secret between the Yuxu Temple and the Heavenly Fragrance Pavilion, Yu Haoran decided to take advantage of the Heavenly Fragrance Pavilion because of his deep hatred for the Yuxu Temple in his previous life.
"I didn't think that even an elder of the Yuxu Temple would be so interested in the Enlightenment Stone. This means that the value of this Enlightenment Stone is beyond my expectations."
"If that's the case, I must get this Enlightenment Stone!"
"I bid twenty million level-eight, first-grade spirit stones!"
Hearing Yu Haoran directly raise the price of the Enlightenment Stone to 20 million, the sound of people sucking in a breath of cold air could be heard.
But then, they recalled that Yu Haoran had directly pointed out the background of the owner of Room 3. Their eyes were filled with surprise.
After all, the Yuxu Temple was not only one of the seven top sects, but also the leader of the top sects.
If even an elder of the Yuxu Temple was willing to fight for the Enlightenment Stone, it must have the effect of targeting Martial Emperors and Martial Sages.
Therefore, after Yu Haoran pointed out the origin of the owner of Room 3, not only did the wealthy powerhouses in the private rooms begin to bid, even the poor ordinary people in the hall began to borrow spiritual stones from each other, intending to participate in the auction.
"Twenty-three million level-eight, first-grade spirit stones!"
"Twenty-four million level-eight, first-grade spirit stones!"
"Twenty-six million level-eight, first-grade spirit stones!"
"…!"
