If the price of 250 million had been raised slowly, perhaps it would not have been enough to scare so many people.
However, this person was extremely mysterious and was hidden in a private room. No one knew who he was.
Previously, someone had raised the price by 10 million right off the bat, which ordinary person would dare to bid like this?
Now, this person was even more ruthless, raising the price by 100 million right off the bat, which ordinary person would dare to bid like this?
Who knew how many people would be scared off by this bid!
"City Lord Hong, I suggest that you stop bidding. This person's identity is a mystery, and his family background is not bad. Moreover, we are in the light, while he is in the dark. Let's not talk about whether you can win against him, even if you do, it may not be a good thing! "City Lord Han reminded.
"Yes, if this person is someone we can't afford to offend, then it will be troublesome!" The other City Lords also said worriedly.
This was the Cheng family's territory, not theirs.
More importantly, nowadays, crooks and honest people came and went in the secular world, and no one knew who had come.
What's more, which of the people who could enter this auction didn't have some status?
Even City Lords like them did not dare to raise the price by 100 million, so this person's identity might be even more distinguished than theirs.
Hong Qing clenched his fists, obviously, he also realized this problem.
However, his eyes were fixed on the box on the stage, which contained a pill that was very important to him.
He really wanted to get it, but who was the person who made the offer?
If he really competed with him, would it bring trouble to himself?
"This is the Cheng family's territory, but even so, since we bought the item in their auction house, they should at least guarantee our safety, right?" Hong Qing said.
"It seems that you still have no intention of giving up!" City Lord Han said.
"This thing is too important to me, and I really don't want it to be taken away by others.
If I miss this opportunity, maybe I will never have the chance to reach the Tribulation Crossing Stage again! "City Lord Hong said.
He had been in this realm for hundreds of years, and a few hundred years was also a long time for him.
Now, there was a chance to directly raise his cultivation by more than 100 years.
Perhaps, with more than a hundred years of cultivation, he would be able to trigger the Heavenly Tribulation and successfully pass it, becoming a Tribulation Passing Expert.
"That's hard to say. Who knows what kind of people are up there? What if they aren't afraid of the Cheng Family?" City Lord Han shook his head.
If they managed to obtain a treasure from the Cheng Clan, the Cheng Clan might protect them. However, if this person wasn't afraid of the Cheng Family's power, then the Cheng Family's protection would be meaningless.
"However, even if they aren't afraid of the Cheng Family's power, they wouldn't dare to attack us in this city, right?
If we leave the secular world, we can quickly return to Hong City. As long as we return to Hong City, how will they know who we are? "Hong City Lord thought for a moment and continued.
"Hong City Lord, you must consider this carefully. Although this Cultivation Pill is indeed very beneficial to all of us, if we offend someone we shouldn't offend, then it might not be worth it! "City Lord Long said.
Originally, he had planned to join in the fight if the price was within his acceptable range.
But now, he gave up. This guy's words had already frightened him. He didn't want to offend such an extraordinary person.
Although the treasure was good, one must be alive. Otherwise, no matter how good the treasure was, it would just be a wedding dress for someone else.
"Hmph, even if he really comes from a powerful force, we don't seem to be inferior. We have the dynasty behind us, he might not be able to offend us! "City Lord Hong said.
"I hope you're right!" City Lord Han didn't say anything else.
In any case, he wasn't the one who bid for the treasure. Even if they wanted to leave, that person might not make things difficult for them.
"251 million!" City Lord Hong gritted his teeth. In order to break through to the Tribulation Passing Stage, he couldn't care less. He immediately increased the bid by 1 million.
At this moment, everyone's eyes were on Hong Qing.
Their eyes were full of admiration. Although it was only 1 million, many people sighed in their hearts. This person was really courageous.
That person didn't look like an ordinary person at first glance. Obviously, this 1 million was to go against him.
"350 million!" However, the private room increased the bid by another 100 million.
Seeing this, everyone was amazed by this person's wealth, but they were also happy in their hearts.
At this moment, everyone's attention was once again on Hong Qing's head.
Although they didn't know who Hong Qing was, they knew very well that this guy was simply hitting a rock with an egg.
This mysterious person obviously wanted the Cultivation Pill. Since that was the case, they would do him a favor at no cost.
The other party had even increased the bid by 100 million. Would he still be short of 1 million?
More importantly, if he continued to increase the bid, he would definitely offend that mysterious person.
If the other party wasn't a bad person, or if he didn't have a powerful background, then it would be fine.
However, this person was so rich that he probably wasn't someone without a powerful background. If this person was someone who held grudges, then this person was simply courting death.
"City Lord Hong, I think we should give up. That person obviously doesn't want to let go. Moreover, if this goes on, even if you get the Cultivation Pill, the price will be too high. You might even offend someone you can't afford to offend easily. This deal isn't worth it no matter how you look at it! "
Looking at the strange gazes around them, the city lords all felt a great deal of pressure.
They felt that perhaps attending this auction was a wrong decision, especially since they were afraid that the mysterious person would implicate them. If that happened, they would really be out of luck.
"350 million, someone has already bid 350 million. Is there anyone else who wants to continue?" The emcee shouted loudly.
The first auction item had already been sold at such a crazy price. This was definitely the most exciting thing for him.
Although he was a disciple of the Cheng Family and this auction was also held by the Cheng Family, he was the emcee of the auction. The higher the auction price, the more spirit stones the Cheng Family would earn, and he would also profit from it.
Therefore, he naturally hoped that there would be people who would continue to bid. It would be good if the Cultivation Pill was sold at a price of 1 billion.
"I give up!" City Lord Hong said to the few people around him.
He had already felt a great deal of pressure. He didn't know who the person in the box above was, but this kind of courage was enough to shock him.
He only increased the bid by 1 million, but the other party increased the bid by 100 million. This was enough to prove that the other party was determined to get the Cultivation Pill.
