In the auction!
"My surname is Wan, and people have given me the nickname Old Man Withered Vulture!"
Old Man Withered Vulture revealed his name fearlessly when Young Master Qing Xu inquired about his background.
"So it's Senior Wan. Junior Xi Qiang greets Senior!"
Young Master Qing Xu immediately rose to greet him when he heard that the owner of room 26 was Old Man Withered Vulture, whom even his sect did not want to provoke.
Old Man Withered Vulture only snorted coldly and ignored him. He used the spirit stones he had just prepared to continue bidding for the Pure Heavenly Water.
"1.1 billion!"
"1.3 billion!" A bid came from a private room 21 whose origins were unknown.
"One hundred and fifty million!" A bid came from room 16.
"…!"
Since the start of the auction, the guests in the 30 or so private rooms who had not made a bid all displayed their great courage and wealth in the face of the temptation of the Pure Heavenly Water.
But as the price continued to rise, the crowd gradually discovered a strange reality. The most wealthy guests present, Yu Haoran in room 1, and the head elder of the Valley of the Medicine Masters in room 3, had not made a bid.
"Yunxiang, as one of the seven great sacred waters of the Tianxuan Continent, the true value of the Pure Heavenly Water is no less than that of an ordinary Venerable level magic weapon. Therefore, the final price will definitely be above 3 billion."
Yu Haoran patiently explained to Yunxiang why they had not made a bid.
"Now that the price has not reached the limit, there is no need to make a move for the time being."
"Moreover, you can analyze the wealth and temperament of these people through the tone of voice when each private room makes a bid. This will increase your knowledge and sharpen your analytical skills."
"Master, I understand!"
After hearing Yu Haoran's explanation, Yunxiang nodded and began to carefully analyze the tone of voice of each private room.
"2.1 billion!" The ancestor of the Gu clan from room 9 couldn't help but clench his fists under his sleeves.
2.1 billion wasn't a very high price for the Gu Clan, which had been passed down for hundreds of years. However, he wasn't the only person in the Gu Clan. There were tens of thousands of people in the Gu Clan. The amount of spiritual stones that these people needed to consume every day was in the hundreds of thousands.
Therefore, the Gu clan could only mobilize about 300,000 Spiritual Stones. As long as it exceeded this amount, the clan's development would be affected.
"2.13 billion!"
"2.170 billion!"
The Feng Clan and the Gui Clan, who were similarly troubled by this problem, didn't offer as domineering a price as they did at the beginning.
"2.2 billion!"
"2.21 billion!"
"…!"
After more than 20 rounds of bidding, the price of the Heavenly Pure Divine Water was barely raised to 2.5 billion. This also meant that the price had reached the limit that everyone could bear.
"Three billion!"
Just when everyone thought that the price of the auction would continue to rise by a few million or tens of millions, the head elder of the Valley of the Medicine Masters from private room number three raised the price by 500 million.
"I'm going to vomit blood. The Valley of the Medicine Masters is still the wealthiest!" Hearing the head elder of the Valley of the Medicine Masters directly raise the price by 500 million, the gossipy man who had been asking about Master Qingxu's background couldn't help but sigh with envy and jealousy.
After all, the head elder had just spent an astronomical amount of 4.3 billion Spiritual Stones to bid for the egg of the Clear Sky Bull. Now, he had directly raised the price by 3 billion Spiritual Stones to bid for the Heavenly Pure Divine Water. Adding in the total, the price reached 7.3 billion.
7.3 billion Spiritual Stones was an astronomical figure that no one in the hall dared to imagine.
"Damn it!"
After hearing Gu Minglong's introduction of the owner of private room number three, the ancestor of the Gu Clan, who had wanted to take the risk, couldn't help but curse. In the end, he had no choice but to give up on bidding.
After all, there was no power in the entire Southern Mountain Range that could compete with the Valley of the Medicine Masters in terms of wealth.
After directly raising the price by 500 million, the head elder stared nervously at private room number one.
Because in his opinion, in the entire auction, only Yu Haoran in private room number one could threaten him financially.
"3.5 billion!"
But to the head elder's surprise, Yu Haoran, who he had been so nervous about, didn't raise the price. Instead, it was the guest from private room number four who directly raised the price by 500 million to announce his bid for the Heavenly Pure Divine Water.
"Damn it!"
Private rooms number three and four were side by side. It was impossible to see private room number three, so the head elder cursed inwardly and followed up with a bid.
"3.6 billion!"
"3.7 billion!"
"…!"
In just a few seconds, the price of the Heavenly Pure Divine Water broke through the 4 billion mark and reached 4.1 billion amidst the continuous bidding.
Moreover, this price came from private room number four, which made the crowd speculate about the background of the owner of private room number four.
"Head elder, we can no longer continue bidding!" Seeing the head elder open his mouth to continue raising the price, the third elder hurriedly stopped him with a bitter smile.
Other than the top elixirs used to save their lives, the rest of the elixirs were only exchanged for 3 billion Spiritual Stones. Including the 1 billion Spiritual Stones that Yu Haoran exchanged for the egg of the Clear Sky Bull, they could only fork out 4 billion Spiritual Stones.
"Boguang, contact the people from the Heavenly Earth Chamber of Commerce. I want to know who the guy in private room number four is!" Since they had no more food in their hands, there was no need to continue fighting. The head elder helplessly gave up the bid and ordered with a ferocious expression.
"Head elder, I understand!"
Nodding his head heavily, Xu Boguang also resented the guy in private room number four.
"Even the Valley of the Medicine Masters can't compete with me for the Heavenly Pure Divine Water!" Seeing that the head elder had given up, the middle-aged man from private room number four was full of confidence and arrogance.
"5 billion!" But just as his confident and arrogant voice fell, he suddenly heard a higher bid.
"Sure enough, this kid is cheating me again!" Hearing Yu Haoran from private room number one directly raise the price by 900 million to bid for the Heavenly Pure Divine Water, the head elder, who had been defeated several times, gritted his teeth and said.
"5.5 billion!"
Through the glass in front of him, the middle-aged man from private room number four looked at private room number one. His voice contained a hint of contempt as he raised the bid.
"7 billion!"
Even though Yu Haoran had used up all the Spirit Stones that a clan had accumulated over hundreds of years, his expression did not change in the slightest just because the other party had offered a higher price. He had casually raised the price by 1.5 billion Spirit Stones. This showed that he was rich and overbearing, as well as his determination to obtain the Heavenly Pure Divine Water.
"Zi …!"
After hearing Yu Haoran's sky-high price, whether it was the ordinary cultivators in the hall, the honored guests in the private rooms, or even the Great Elder and Bian Shengrui, they couldn't help but suck in a breath of cold air.
