"It's the Dragon-devouring Sword Saint's jade pendant from a thousand years ago."
"The Dragon-devouring Sword Saint was a powerful Sword Saint at the peak of the Nine-star Saint level. He was one of the strongest among the free Sword Cultivators."
There were discussions about the Dragon-devouring Sword Saint in the First Pavilion.
At that time, the Dragon-devouring Sword Saint was so powerful that he was not inferior to many of the peak Nine-star Saint level experts in the five City Lord Mansions. That was why he was so famous.
However, no one knew how he died later on.
In any case, the Dragon-devouring Jade Pendant had a certain collection value to many people. There was no shortage of collectors among the cultivators.
Moreover, the Dragon-Devouring Jade Pendant had other effects as well. After wearing it, it could absorb the energy of the world to aid one's cultivation. In other words, wearing the Dragon-Devouring Jade Pendant was equivalent to cultivating 24 hours a day. There was no need for one to deliberately spend time on cultivation.
It was equivalent to the cultivation speed of a Peak Six-star Saint level expert. As long as one's meridians could withstand it, one could cultivate 24 hours a day. Undoubtedly, it was very attractive.
One had to know that under normal circumstances, a cultivator's daily cultivation time was at most two to four hours, and even longer was at most eight hours. Usually, time was limited. In addition to cultivating skills to improve their cultivation, they also had to cultivate other skills, such as swordsmanship and so on. It had to be distributed reasonably and go hand in hand.
As for the tolerance of the meridians, when a cultivator broke through to the Eternal Realm and cast a Saint Body, even a First Grade Saint Body would be very strong. Under normal cultivation conditions, the Saint Body had a strong resistance to the world's essence. It could withstand the erosion of the world's essence and the transportation of Sword Origin for a long time.
Of course, if one cultivated in special places where the world's essence was too rich or too violent, the tolerance of the meridians would be limited if one's Saint Body was not strong enough. One would not be able to cultivate for a long time.
However, no matter what, wearing the Dragon Swallowing Jade Pendant in a normal environment was equivalent to a six-star Martial Saint at the peak of the Martial Saint level wholeheartedly absorbing the essence of heaven and earth to boost his cultivation. Imperceptibly, he could improve his cultivation much faster.
Just think about it. Originally, he had to spend four to six hours a day absorbing natural energy to raise his cultivation base. However, with the Dragon Devouring Jade Pendant, he could use those four to six hours to practice his swordsmanship and so on. Not to mention, the rate of absorbing natural energy was four to six times more than before.
Those who could enter the Thousand Slaughter House to participate in the auction were not fools. On the contrary, they were all very smart. Therefore, in an instant, they had calculated and determined the situation.
Many people had made up their minds to participate in the auction to obtain the Dragon Devouring Jade Pendant. Chu Mu was one of them.
To a Five Star Saint like him, the Dragon Devouring Jade Pendant was extremely valuable.
"I believe everyone understands the benefits of the Dragon Devouring Jade Pendant. Without further ado, the starting bid will be twenty Silver Hearts. Each increment must not be less than one Silver Heart. Let the auction begin." Lin Weiyin's clear voice flowed into everyone's ears.
"Twenty-five Silver Hearts." A Seven Star Saint from the First Pavilion bid.
The amount of natural energy absorbed by the Dragon Devouring Jade Pendant was equivalent to the cultivation speed of a Six Star Saint. To a Seven Star Saint, it was also beneficial. However, after a Seven Star Saint, the effects were not obvious.
"Thirty Silver Hearts." It was from a Seven Star Saint from the First Pavilion.
Its value rose steadily, and soon, it reached 50 Silver Hearts, surpassing the value of the 19th treasure by quite a bit.
Those who bid were all Seven Star Saints. The Eight Star Saints did not have any intention of bidding. To them, rather than spending dozens of Silver Hearts to bid for the Dragon Devouring Jade Pendant, they would rather keep it for other treasures. After all, their Silver Hearts were limited.
It should be known that some nine-star Saints could not even take out a few dozen Silver Hearts. Therefore, the wealth of the Saint-level experts in the Thousand Slaughter Building was not something that ordinary experts could compare to. However, it was still something that they had accumulated over many years.
Good steel should be used on the blade. This was the logic behind it.
Fifty Silver Hearts was already a wealth that many Seven Star Saints could not take out. They could only shrink back at the sight of it.
Therefore, there was a moment of silence.
Lin Weiyin maintained a smile on her face. She was not nervous at all. She knew that the Dragon Devouring Jade Pendant's value was not limited to this. Now, it was just the appetizer. The real bidder had not spoken yet.
One breath, two breaths, three breaths.
"Sixty Silver Hearts." Someone from the second pavilion made a bid. The aura that he emitted made it clear that he was an Eight Star Saint. He probably wanted to bid for it and give it to his juniors.
"Sixty-five Silver Hearts."
"Sixty-six Silver Hearts."
"Sixty-seven Silver Hearts."
The people who bid were basically cultivators from the second pavilion. There were Six Star Saints, Seven Star Saints, and Eight Star Saints.
Soon, the price rose to seventy Silver Hearts.
"Young Master, are you still not going to bid?" Lin Biruo could tell that Chu Mu wanted the Dragon Devouring Jade Pendant.
"No hurry," Chu Mu said.
"Eighty Silver Hearts. I, Lin Ziqi, want the Dragon Devouring Jade Pendant. Everyone, give me some face." A hearty voice sounded from the third pavilion. Not only did he bid, but he also said his name.
The discussions of the First Level soon made it known who Lin Ziqi was.
In Zhan Long City, he was the only son of the second pavilion master of the Evil Dragon Palace, the strongest faction under Zhan Long Manor. He was a genius of the first division and was at the late Sixth Sky of the Wangu Realm.
Announcing his name and letting others know who he was and where he came from would serve as a deterrent to others. Otherwise, it would be easy to offend the other party. Even if he were to obtain the Dragon Devouring Jade Pendant in the end, there was a good chance that he would be assassinated and even lose his life.
The Evil Dragon Palace was a faction on the same level as the Three Sacred Sects.
The second pavilion master himself was an extremely powerful existence. His only son, Lin Ziqi, was a genius of the first division. Whether it was his background or his strength, he was far superior to the majority of cultivators.
Sure enough, after Lin Ziqi announced her name, no one immediately followed up with a bid.
Some people weren't afraid of Lin Ziqi, but they didn't need the Dragon Devouring Jade Pendant. And those who needed it couldn't afford to offend Lin Ziqi. There were also a few people who didn't care about the Dragon Devouring Jade Pendant. Thus, they didn't want to offend Lin Ziqi.
In the room, Lin Ziqi was smiling as if victory was in his hands.
However, there were still people who weren't afraid of him.
"Eighty-one Silver Hearts." A voice sounded. It was indifferent and instantly spread. The smile on Lin Ziqi's face froze.
Originally, Lin Weiyin thought that the bidding for the Dragon Devouring Jade Pendant would end here. Although the value was about the same, it wasn't what she wanted.
"Eighty-five Silver Hearts." Lin Ziqi said in a rich and imposing manner.
"Eighty-six Silver Hearts." Chu Mu said.
"Ninety-nine Silver Hearts." Lin Ziqi's voice turned cold.
"Ninety-one Silver Hearts." Chu Mu was unperturbed.
"Are you planning to go against me, Lin Ziqi?" Lin Ziqi said angrily.
"When bidding for treasures, the highest bidder wins." Chu Mu replied calmly.
"One hundred Silver Hearts." Lin Ziqi snorted and said again.
"One hundred and one Silver Hearts." Chu Mu bid again.
Lin Ziqi's face darkened.
There were also people who laughed.
Although it was said that the highest bidder would win, Chu Mu only increased the price by one Silver Heart each time. It was inevitable that people would feel that he was targeting Lin Ziqi.
"Say your name." Lin Ziqi didn't bid again. She said coldly.
"As you wish, my name is Chu Mu." Chu Mu said without fear. He didn't have any intention of targeting Lin Ziqi. It was just that if he could get the treasure at a lower price, why would he be a fool? Not to mention that other than the Dragon Devouring Jade Pendant, there might be other treasures that could speed up cultivation that required Silver Hearts.
As for saying his name, even if he didn't say it, with Lin Ziqi's power, she could find out. And Chu Mu didn't plan to hide it.
"It's really Brother Chu." In the room, Long Yunkong couldn't help laughing.
"Chu Mu." After Lin Ziqi repeated it, she suddenly felt that she had heard this name before. It was a bit familiar.
"Chu Mu …"
"Is he the person that the Silver Sword Star of the City of Silver challenged? The one who killed the one-eyed old man?"
"Rumor has it that his cultivation isn't high. He's only at the early fourth layer."
"No, when he killed the one-eyed old man, his cultivation was already at the early fifth layer."
"So it's you. Do you think that you have the right to be arrogant after killing the one-eyed old man?" Lin Ziqi's voice was cold and filled with killing intent.
"I wouldn't dare. There are plenty of people stronger than me." Chu Mu said casually, "Auctioneer, if there aren't any higher bids, can we announce it now?"
"One hundred and one Silver Hearts going once!" Lin Weiyin could only raise the hammer in her hand. She hoped that someone would continue to bid.
However, the price of the Dragon Devouring Jade Pendant was about the same.
"One hundred and two Silver Hearts." At this time, someone from the third floor made a bid. "I'll give Brother Lin face, but someone like you who popped out of nowhere should obediently hide in a corner."
From the sound of it, this person was targeting Chu Mu.
"One hundred and three Silver Hearts." Chu Mu said. It didn't matter if he was targeted. He was determined to get the Dragon Devouring Jade Pendant because it would be helpful to his cultivation.
"One hundred and four Silver Hearts." The person targeting Chu Mu continued to bid.
"One hundred and five Silver Hearts." Chu Mu raised the price again.
"The Dragon Devouring Jade Pendant is yours. However, you have to be alive to use it." The person's words were filled with threat.
"My life is tough." Chu Mu casually replied.
No one bid anymore. 105 Silver Hearts had already exceeded the value of the Dragon Swallowing Jade Pendant. Moreover, just as that person had said, even if one obtained it, they still had to be alive to use it. Therefore, there would always be people who had different thoughts.
