Zhuo Buming's words were met with silence. He had made it very clear that it was up to the bidding swordsman to respond.
Give it to Zhuo Buming?
Continue to bid?
In the hearts of the swordsmen who wished for the world to be in chaos, they naturally hoped that Chu Mu would continue to bid.
Streaks of spiritual consciousness were released from the VIP rooms and all of them spread towards the VIP room where Chu Mu was. They wanted to see who was competing with Zhuo Buming.
In an instant, they "saw" Chu Mu's figure and face. They were stunned at first, then shook their heads with a bitter smile.
"I also need the Nie Kong Flower. Whoever gets it in the end will depend on their own abilities." Chu Mu replied faintly and was not threatened at all. "Twenty-six million."
"He bid, he bid …" The swordsmen who wished for the world to be in chaos were delighted to see this.
"He actually bid again …" Zhuo Buming was about to explode in anger.
"This junior is really …"
"He doesn't know his limits."
"His talent and potential are not bad, but his brain is not working well."
In the VIP rooms, most of the swordsmen shook their heads and sighed.
"This is an auction. If you want to get any treasure, you have to bid for it." Su Haosha's voice sounded again. He was not only participating in the auction, but also in charge of maintaining order.
With Su Haosha and the Saint Sword Guards around, even if Zhuo Buming was furious, he would not dare to make a move unless he felt that he had lived long enough. Even if he made a move, he would most likely be killed by Su Haosha before he could kill Chu Mu.
The strength of the number one swordsman in the Sacred City of the Wildlands was not a bluff.
"Twenty-six million and five hundred thousand." The veins on Zhuo Buming's forehead bulged. It was not only because of anger, but also because the price had exceeded the standard in his mind.
"Twenty-seven million." Chu Mu did not hesitate. He had perfected the concept of emptiness. The earlier he achieved Ultimacy, the better. To him, the improvement of strength was countless times more important than spiritual stones.
He took a deep breath and suppressed the anger in his heart. Zhuo Buming's voice seemed to seep out from the gaps between his teeth, full of coldness. "Twenty-eight million!"
"Thirty million." Chu Mu directly increased the bid by two million.
In the VIP room, Zhuo Buming, who was furious to the extreme, sat down instead. His face was cold and his eyes were only filled with coldness and ruthlessness. He did not say a word, causing the surrounding air to be very oppressive.
"30 million going once …" Elder Dong said with a smile. A Nie Sky Flower could be auctioned for 30 million, which greatly exceeded his expectations. At the same time, he was also surprised by Chu Mu's courage and financial resources.
"Thirty million going twice …"
"30 million going thrice …"
The hammer in Elder Dong's hand fell with a bang that echoed throughout the entire area. In that instant, it was as if the hammer had struck the hearts of everyone present, causing them to stop for a moment.
The Nie Sky Flower belonged to Chu Mu.
And because of this, Chu Mu had offended the Bloodless Sword Reverend Zhuo Buming. This was something that everyone present knew.
"Good, I've offended you well. I don't need to do anything this time." Among the swordsmen on the first floor, Tyrannical Dragon Zhou Zhixiong grinned. The centipede scar on his face trembled, looking extremely terrifying.
"What a pity, a genius."
"Yes, of all people to offend, he had to offend the Bloodless Sword Reverend."
"Just you wait." Zhuo Buming roared from his throat. This voice reverberated in the VIP room, and only he could hear it.
Chu Mu did not care about offending Zhuo Buming at all. He was very happy that he had successfully bid for the Nie Sky Flower.
The auction did not stop because of this matter. Instead, it became even more lively. Conflict was the best way to attract people's attention.
One after another, the auction items were presented and auctioned off one after another. However, the price didn't exceed Nie Konghua's price.
It had to be said that the Nie Sky Flower had created a temporary peak.
Time passed slowly. Since the Nie Sky Flower had started, the swordsmen in the VIP room had also bid one after another, bidding for treasures that they were satisfied with.
Finally, it was time for the finale treasure, a triple mutated wild beast egg.
In the end, this extraordinary egg was auctioned off at a high price of 50 million. This grand auction had come to an end.
Chu Mu paid 30 million top-level Spirit Stones, and suddenly the internal space of the Space Ring was emptied a lot.
After most people had left the auction venue, Chu Mu walked out of the VIP room.
"Brother Chu, Brother Chu has become a man of the hour again." Su Haosha walked towards him and laughed.
"The tree wants to be still, but the wind will not stop." Chu Mu smiled and said.
"Zhuo Buming is not the same as Yang Lianfeng. A few years ago, he had the strength of a senior Sword Hunter. He is unreasonable and violent. Outside the Sacred City, he would draw his sword and kill people without blinking." Su Haosha said seriously, "This time, he is in the Sacred City. Although he is angry, he does not dare to break the rules of the Sacred City. I suggest that you stay in the Sacred City for a period of time and cultivate well. When you are strong enough, you can leave the Sacred City. If you don't have enough hunting points, you can come to me."
"Thank you." Chu Mu did not refuse or agree, but said.
"You bought the Nie Sky Flower. Did you comprehend the Concept of Emptiness?" Su Haosha changed the topic and asked.
"I have some comprehension," said Chu Mu.
"Genius, you are really a great genius." Su Haosha exclaimed, "However, it is not a good thing to be distracted too much, especially when the Concept of Emptiness is one of the highest concepts. It will take more time."
"I know what to do." Chu Mu said. Su Haosha did not say anything. This was Chu Mu's own business. He could not and had no right to interfere.
"I know you're a cultivation maniac. You probably can't wait to use the Nie Sky Flower after bidding for it this time, right? I won't disturb you. If there's anything you need me for, just come to the Sacred Sword Guard camp and tell me my name." said Su Haosha. His attitude fully expressed his intention to make friends with Chu Mu.
"I will." Chu Mu said, "I will leave first."
Walking out of the auction house, a figure flashed and appeared in front of Chu Mu. It was a swordsman in his forties with a rough face and sharp eyes.
"I know you are Chu Mu, and I know you are a rare genius. But you have to know that once you die, you are nothing." The man said directly, "Give me the Nie Sky Flower, and I can give you 20 million top-grade spirit stones. Moreover, I will not pursue this matter."
Chu Mu knew that this man was the Bloodless Swordsman, Zhuo Buming.
"You are wrong. If I die, I am a dead man." Chu Mu's figure flashed and appeared behind Zhuo Buming. He left behind a sentence and a back view, and gradually walked away.
Zhuo Buming stared coldly at Chu Mu's back view, as if he wanted to pierce through it. The terrifying and sharp aura emitted from his body made the surrounding swordsmen feel very oppressed. They did not even dare to breathe.
…
"Why don't I go to the Enlightenment Pagoda, consume the Nie Sky Flower, and break through the concept of emptiness to the profound meaning of emptiness, and see if there is any improvement." Chu Mu thought to himself. He threw Zhuo Buming to the back of his mind and went to the Enlightenment Pagoda.
Those who were secretly watching Chu Mu, waiting for the opportunity to attack Chu Mu, knew all of Chu Mu's whereabouts. They were just waiting for the opportunity when Chu Mu left the Sacred Wild City.
Entering the Enlightenment Pagoda, Chu Mu sat cross-legged on the futon. He quickly got rid of all distracting thoughts, and then took out the Nie Sky Flower from his spatial ring.
The silver-white Nie Sky Flower constantly released a faint fluctuation of the power of emptiness. It was very mysterious, and it constantly explained the mysteries of space to Chu Mu.
Opening his mouth, Chu Mu stuffed the Nie Sky Flower into his mouth. After chewing slightly, he swallowed it.
After three breaths, Chu Mu suddenly felt a familiar and mysterious power being born in his body. It washed over his body like water. Everywhere it passed, it was as if he was reborn. It made Chu Mu's perception of the power of emptiness around him ten times better.
A mysterious power rushed into his spiritual world. It was as if his soul had left his body and was wandering outside. The mysteries of space were revealed layer by layer, allowing Chu Mu to gradually peek into the deeper mysteries of space.
The double improvement of his spiritual consciousness and body was like a transformation in nature. It allowed Chu Mu's perception and understanding of the concept of emptiness and the power of emptiness to continuously increase.
If the concept of emptiness was the first level of the mystery of the power of emptiness, then the profound meaning of emptiness was the second level of the mystery of emptiness.
Currently, Chu Mu was at the critical point between the first level and the second level. It was as if he could break through at any time.
All sorts of information regarding the mysteries of the power of emptiness appeared in Chu Mu's mind. There were only intermittent words, and Chu Mu hurriedly comprehended them.
The Nie Sky Flower was worthy of being called a rare treasure. It allowed Chu Mu's spiritual consciousness and body to undergo a temporary transformation, becoming extremely compatible with the power of emptiness. Under these circumstances, the mysteries of the power of emptiness seemed to be gradually removed, slowly appearing before Chu Mu's eyes, allowing him to comprehend them.
Comprehend, comprehend, comprehend!
Time slowly passed. Unknowingly, Chu Mu's body automatically left the futon and floated three meters in the air. It was as if the surrounding space had frozen.
Silently, Chu Mu's soul seemed to 'hear' the sound of a bubble bursting.
Pop!
In an instant, as if he had seen through some mystery, a new kind of comprehension surged into his mind. The mysteries that he originally understood became so simple. Chu Mu's body also trembled and rose again, rising to a height of ten meters. The top of his head almost touched the ceiling.
Immediately after, as if he was pulled by an invisible force, Chu Mu's body actually began to move in this small room. At the beginning, it was very slow, slowly floating around the room. His speed gradually increased, becoming faster and faster. In the end, he became like a phantom, silently flying around the room.
This continued for nearly an hour. Chu Mu's body seemed to have slowed down. After flying three rounds, he stopped moving and slowly descended. His legs naturally straightened, standing firmly on the ground. His eyes slowly opened, and a flash of silver flashed past, as if he had seen through the mysteries of space.
"So, this is the feeling of comprehending the profound meaning of emptiness," Chu Mu said softly, his face filled with intoxication. (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to come to qidian.com to vote for me. Your support is my greatest motivation.)
