Sacred Cloud Chamber of Commerce. Due to the special treasures being auctioned this time and the large number of people attending, the chamber of commerce used the largest auction house in the grand auction held once every three years.
The auction house was so huge that it could hold tens of thousands of people at the same time. Moreover, the auction house wasn't located in Tai Yong City, but in a forest not far from the city. Even in the grand auction held once every three years, the auction house was rarely used. In the past few decades, it had only been used three times.
After a few decades, the auction house was being used once again.
A large number of people left Tai Yong City, and the originally congested streets were now deserted, like an empty city.
Palace Master Fang Qianxing of the Green Mist Holy Palace and three elders had already arrived at the auction house, followed by Jiang Ming and Miao Cuiling.
Due to the large number of people attending the auction, each faction was only allowed to send six people. Xiao Chen naturally couldn't come with them, but Xiao Chen had already arrived at the auction house and was arranged to wait in a VIP room.
From the VIP room, one could see everything that was happening in the auction house. Xiao Chen's gaze was currently sizing up the experts from the major factions in the front row.
The other major factions had all arrived, including the wandering cultivators. There were actually more than thirty thousand people, and the number of people was surging.
This auction wasn't just for the Heaven Rank Divine Technique. It was a rare opportunity, so Cai Yun naturally wouldn't let go of the other treasures to increase the auction house's income.
With a beautiful face that countless men adored and that seductive smile, even if it was a street stall item, the price would definitely be several times higher in Cai Yun's hands.
In the center of the auction house, a graceful figure slowly walked onto the auction stage. She was wearing a fiery red tight-fitting cheongsam, which accentuated her alluring figure perfectly. Her snow-white skin was extremely elastic, and her long hair was draped over her shoulders with an exquisite hairpin. On her beautiful face, there was no concealment of her charming smile, and her seductive eyes caused the hearts of men to sway wherever she passed. Cai Yun walked onto the auction stage step by step, releasing an alluring mature charm as she swayed.
She was indeed worthy of being called the number one beauty in the vicinity. She was indeed devastatingly beautiful.
As Cai Yun walked onto the auction stage, the entire place quietened down. It was as if only the sound of heartbeats could be heard. Regardless of whether it was young men or old men, at this moment, all of them were intoxicated by Cai Yun's alluring charm.
Some of the young men even stared at Cai Yun's alluring body without concealing anything as they swallowed their saliva. All of them were extremely excited in their hearts, and waves of lust surged within them.
If it wasn't for the fact that they were in public, they would have already pounced on her and fiercely hugged her alluring body in their arms and doted on her.
Cai Yun had long since become accustomed to the lustful looks of the men below, so she didn't mind it at all. The charming smile on her pretty face deepened as she chuckled softly, "This little girl knows that everyone here is here for the Heaven Rank Divine Secret Art. Many thanks for coming."
The enchanting laughter immediately caused a small commotion in the crowd, causing many men with weak willpower to feel numb all over. At this moment, they were all praying in their hearts that the heavens would turn them into beasts, wanting to immediately vent the evil fire in their bodies. However, there were also some men who, after being startled awake, revealed an embarrassed flush on their faces.
"However, before the auction of the Heaven Rank Divine Secret Art, this little girl has prepared an appetizer for everyone. Everyone will definitely be very interested in such a treasure." Cai Yun's enchanting eyes swept over the crowd, and her pretty face once again revealed a charming smile as she chuckled softly.
The whole place quieted down once again. Cai Yun flipped her jade-like hand, and a jade bottle containing a green liquid appeared in her palm out of thin air.
Holding it in the palm of her hand, she raised it slightly, her charming smile still on her pretty face. Cai Yun's enchanting laughter rang out, "Everyone should know that this is Spirit Gathering Powder, but this Spirit Gathering Powder is different from the Spirit Gathering Powder you usually see. After the confirmation of Sacred Cloud Chamber of Commerce's Alchemist Wu Changkong, this bottle of Spirit Gathering Powder is refined by a Sixth Grade Alchemist. Its quality is very high, and its effects are even more powerful. The starting price is fifty High-Grade Saint Origin Stones."
"A Sixth Grade Alchemist?" As soon as Cai Yun's words came out, the whole place was in an uproar again. Many masters from large forces were thinking of bidding for this Spirit Gathering Powder so that their genius disciples could cultivate.
"It actually costs fifty High-Grade Saint Origin Stones? Isn't this too much? An ordinary Spirit Gathering Powder only costs five High-Grade Saint Origin Stones, and even better ones only cost ten High-Grade Saint Origin Stones. This Spirit Gathering Powder refined by a Sixth Grade Alchemist actually costs fifty High-Grade Saint Origin Stones. "Many cultivators complained in a low voice. This price was really too high.
Inside the VIP room, Xiao Chen was shocked when he heard Cai Yun's price. The cost of refining the herbs was at most three High-Grade Saint Origin Stones, but Cai Yun had actually increased it by more than ten times.
Spirit Gathering Powder was the most basic spirit liquid used to increase one's cultivation. Although it was easy to refine and the herbs required were not expensive, it was still extremely popular.
"Such a powerful Spirit Gathering Powder can definitely increase one's cultivation speed by several times. If Junior Brother Xiao Chen cultivates it, breaking through to the Holy Spirit Realm will definitely not be a problem." Her beautiful eyes stared at the jade bottle in Cai Yun's hand, and a sweet smile appeared on her pretty face. But soon, she showed a depressed expression and pouted her lips.
Fang Qian Xing and the three Elders came here for the Heaven Rank Divine Cultivation Technique, so they did not care about the Spirit Gathering Powder at all. As for Miao Cuiling, if she wanted to bid for it herself, she would not be able to compete with those great forces and rogue cultivators.
Although the price was high, if one did not want it, someone else would. …
"Fifty-five!" One of the men, who was trying to win a beautiful smile, immediately shouted in a hot-headed manner.
"Sixty!"
"Seventy!"
“..”
Under the shocked gazes of the crowd, the price of the Spirit Gathering Powder soared, and the atmosphere instantly rose to a peak. Inside the VIP room, faces were filled with shock, and some were dumbfounded. Xiao Chen once again felt Cai Yun's terrifying charm.
In the end, even some great forces participated in the bidding, and in the end, the Spirit Gathering Powder was successfully sold for a sky-high price of one hundred and twenty High-Grade Saint Origin Stones.
"Truly a temptress who eats people without spitting out their bones …" Inside the VIP room, Xiao Chen could not help cursing in his heart when he heard the terrifying price, and helplessly shook his head with a bitter smile.
On the auction stage, a charming smile appeared on Cai Yun's pretty face. Being able to sell the Spirit Gathering Powder at such a sky-high price made Cai Yun secretly happy.
Waving her lily-white hand, she motioned for the crowd to be quiet, then clapping her hands, a maid brought an exquisite jade box onto the stage. Taking the jade box, Cai Yun chuckled and said, "I've made everyone wait. This is the final treasure of the Chamber of Commerce's auction today, the Heaven Rank Divine Art Annihilating Demon Heart Palm. It was originally an Earth Rank Divine Art, but after being appraised by the Chamber of Commerce's thousands of Grandmasters, this palm technique was refined and its power is comparable to a Yellow Rank Saint Art, so it was specially designated as a Heaven Rank Divine Art. With such a powerful Divine Art, one's strength will definitely increase greatly. The starting price is one million High-Grade Saint Origin Stones."
"Hiss …"
The expressions of the crowd below changed drastically when they heard this frightening number. One by one, they inhaled a breath of cool air in shock. They were stunned by the enormous sky-high price. The entire place was silent for a moment. Soon after, it began to boil like an avalanche. The noise resounded throughout the mountain forest.
"One million? She actually dares to say such a thing, "Inside the VIP room, Xiao Chen was also shocked, cold sweat dripping down his back.
"One million and one hundred thousand." In the crowd, an indifferent and slightly aged voice instantly silenced the audience, and countless pairs of eyes swept toward the source of the voice.
The moment the price was called out, someone immediately bid, and it directly shocked Xiao Chen, who was in the VIP room, and he hurriedly looked toward the person who had called out the price.
"One million and two hundred thousand." Before the crowd could recover from their shock, another person called out the price, directly raising it by one hundred thousand.
"Haha, Old Man Feng, you've also come to bid for the Heaven-Rank Divine Art. One million and three hundred thousand." Another person called out the price, and he smiled faintly.
"One million and five hundred thousand!" The old man called Old Man Feng glanced at the person who had called out the price with a slightly cold gaze, and directly raised it by two hundred thousand.
"One million and six hundred thousand." At this moment, another person joined in the bidding.
"Two million!"
"Two million and one hundred thousand!"
"Two million and five hundred thousand!"
“..”
The bidding became more and more intense, and each and every one of the rich and overbearing cultivators continued to raise the price. Everyone present was stunned, and they were all dumbfounded.
In the VIP room, Xiao Chen also didn't expect the Heaven-Rank Divine Art to be so popular, and he was also stunned into a daze.
On the auction stage, looking at the intense bidding below, the charming smile on her beautiful face became even more charming. The higher the bidding price, the greater the profit the chamber of commerce would receive.
After a wave of excitement, the bidding price had already reached three million, and the activity of the auction house gradually decreased.
However, this didn't have any effect on Cai Yun, because the major forces in the front row of the auction house hadn't made a move yet.
As the atmosphere gradually decreased, the major forces in the front row began to bid.
The first to speak was the Palace Master of Qinglan Holy Palace, Fang Qianxing. His face was calm, and he said indifferently, "Three million and five hundred thousand."
"Haha, Palace Master Fang is also interested in this Divine Art?" An old man in the front row glanced at Fang Qianxing indifferently, and a smile appeared on his aged face. He smiled faintly and said, "Three million and seven hundred thousand."
The old man was in a white robe, and he was in his fifties or sixties. His face was radiant, and he was the head of the Liu Clan in Tai Yong City, Liu Chengfeng. He was also Liu Ruoqing's grandfather, and the current head of the Liu Clan. He was already half a step into the Saint Monarch Realm.
Glancing at the old man indifferently, Fang Qianxing only nodded slightly.
"Since both Liu Clan Head and Palace Master Fang want this Divine Art, this Old Man also wants to try. Its power is comparable to a Yellow Rank Divine Art. This Divine Art is really rare, and we can't miss it. Four million." Another man in his forties or fifties stroked his beard and smiled.
The man was in a gorgeous gray brocade robe, and he had a dignified aura. He was the head of the Zhang Clan in Tai Yong City, Zhang Qingyun. His cultivation wasn't weak, and he was a late-stage Saint King.
"Five million." Fang Qianxing said indifferently. He seemed calm, but he was determined to win. To him, the price was just a number.
The lively atmosphere was ignited again, and the major forces began to compete fiercely.
