Within the Ling Tian Auction House!
At this moment, the auction had officially begun. The huge auction house was filled with a dense crowd. Everyone was staring intently at the auction stage. One by one, they began to bid passionately, madly competing for every item!
The Central imperial realm had an uncountable number of living beings. While the world's resources were nearly limitless, most of them were located in places of death. If one's strength wasn't sufficient, rashly going to mine them was purely courting death!
This was also the root cause of all sorts of conflicts in the Central imperial realm for the sake of cultivation resources!
While the Four Directions Merchant Group didn't have a good reputation and was involved in the notorious human trafficking business, it couldn't be denied that the Four Directions Merchant Group had a wide range of channels and an extremely strong foundation. They were often able to obtain cultivation resources that others couldn't obtain and then auction them off at shocking prices, madly obtaining wealth and strengthening themselves.
No one would complain about having too many cultivation resources. This time around, many of the items that were taken out for auction in the grand auction of the Four Directions Merchant Group were rare and exquisite. Therefore, it caused everyone in the auction hall to gradually become excited. At this moment, the entire auction hall had entered into a complete uproar and climax!
"The next item is the Clear Soul Technique. The starting price is one million Crimson Cloud dollars. Every bid must be at least one hundred thousand Crimson Cloud dollars!" On the stage, Grand Elder Ying waved his hand, and the maidservant behind him lifted the curtains on the stage to reveal an ancient yellow book. Then, Grand Elder Ying heavily smashed the auction hammer in his hand and spoke in a clear voice.
"Three million Crimson Cloud dollars!"
"Five million Crimson Cloud dollars!"
"Eight million Crimson Cloud dollars!"
"Ten million Crimson Cloud dollars!"
.....
As soon as Grand Elder Ying's voice fell, one voice after another resounded. The bidding price rose steadily, and in the blink of an eye, it had risen to ten million Crimson Cloud dollars. Moreover, the price showed no signs of stopping and was still rising crazily. It made it impossible for anyone to guess where its limit was.
In the end!
"Seventy million Crimson Cloud dollars, congratulations!" Grand Elder Ying made the final decision and spoke in a clear voice with a smile. "The payment will be done after the event. If you want it immediately, you can send someone backstage to complete the transaction with us!"
"I'll send someone over right now!" The person who won the bid for the Clear Spirit Cultivation Technique was a bald old man. He nodded and then lowered his head. He used a sound transmission array and issued some kind of order to the outside world. Then, he raised his head again with a smile on his face. He loosened his collar and continued to excitedly wait for the next item to be auctioned.
"The next item is ten Snow Lotus Ice Pills. The starting price for each pill is one million Crimson Cloud coins. Similarly, each increment must be no less than one hundred thousand Crimson Cloud coins!" Senior Elder Ying waved his hand again, and a new maid stepped onto the stage. She held a golden tray in her hands, and on the tray were ten glistening green pills.
"I want all ten of them. Three million Crimson Cloud coins for each!"
"Even if there are ten of them, I'll take them all! Each one is worth four million Crimson Cloud coins!"
"These ten Snow Lotus Ice Pills are mine. Each one is worth five million Crimson Cloud coins!"
....
In an instant, another wave of crazy bids rang out. The atmosphere in the entire auction hall became increasingly intense and hot. Although the cool breeze was constantly blowing, and the coolness slowly came over, many people's foreheads and backs were covered in sweat!
At this moment, on the second floor opposite the stage, in a huge VIP room, Yu Ziqiu, Bai Shaoyu, Meng Qingyang, and Wu Yuntian were seated. From the start of the auction until now, they had only looked at the incomparably intense auction hall and did not participate in the bidding!
The reason why they did not compete was very simple. They did not fancy them!
The Clear Spirit Cultivation Technique and the Snow Lotus Ice Pills might seem like items that needed to be fought for in the eyes of others, but in their eyes, they were just ordinary items. If they wanted them, it would be as easy as flipping their hands. So, why would they need to bid a high price for them? It was simply not worth it.
"I thought that the Four Directions Merchant Group would have something good. In the end, after auctioning for half a day, they only took out some trash? How boring! "Bai Shaoyu looked at Elder Ying, who was on the stage, with disdain and sneered.
"More importantly, those pitiful ants are still crazily fighting for these trash. This scene is really like a bunch of starving mad dogs fighting for a rotten bone that has already turned yellow. Haha!" Meng Qingyang laughed softly, shook his head slightly, and opened his mouth to speak.
"They are different from us!" Yu Ziqiu's expression was calm. He drank a mouthful of wine, then slowly put it down and continued to speak, "Their lives are not easy, and their cultivation is even more difficult. Things that we do not fancy are priceless treasures in their eyes. They can only crazily fight for them!"
"Oh? Yu Ziqiu, you're not going to continue wearing your mask? "Bai Shaoyu turned his head, looked at Yu Ziqiu across Meng Qingyang and Wu Yuntian, and sneered.
"Bai Shaoyu, your Bai Clan has yet to unify Xi Yuan County. If you want to talk to me, wait until your Bai Clan unifies Xi Yuan County first!" Yu Ziqiu's expression was calm as he glanced at Bai Shaoyu and opened his mouth to speak.
"Don't worry, you will see that day very soon!" Bai Shaoyu sneered and replied, "After my Bai Clan exterminates Ziyang Sect and Yan Yun Sect, I will definitely head to your Northern Spirit County and seek advice from your Golden Dawn Holy Land!"
"Your Golden Dawn Holy Land secretly supported Ziyang Sect and Yan Yun Sect, and forcefully interfered with the internal affairs of our Xi Yuan County. This matter will definitely not be so easily forgotten!"
"Back then, when our Golden Dawn Holy Land was unifying Northern Spirit County, didn't your Bai Clan interfere many times, and obstruct our Golden Dawn Holy Land's actions time and time again? You even directly attacked and killed several core elders of our Holy Land? " Yu Ziqiu's expression was cold as he opened his mouth to speak, "It is impolite not to reciprocate. Right now, I can only say that your Bai Clan is swallowing the bitter fruit that you have sown back then!"
"Haha!" Bai Shaoyu was too lazy to reply, and only sneered without speaking.
"If you dare to come, our Golden Dawn Holy Land will dare to open the gates to welcome you. When the time comes, if you have the guts, why don't we compete in front of the array and see who is weaker and who is stronger!" Yu Ziqiu's voice was neither salty nor indifferent as he spoke.
"I can't ask for more. When the time comes, I want to see just how much courage you have, heh!" Bai Shaoyu opened his mouth and sneered. Then, he turned his head and looked down again, no longer paying attention to Yu Ziqiu.
Yu Ziqiu was too lazy to pay attention to Bai Shaoyu, and similarly, he looked down at the auction hall again.
Between the two of them, looking at Yu Ziqiu and Bai Shaoyu who were full of gunpowder, the corners of Meng Qingyang's mouth curled up, and an undetectable smile flashed in his eyes.
The plan was going smoothly!
Our Holy Spirit Clan will once again reign supreme, and then become the world's ruler!
Humans will also be the slaves of our Holy Spirit Clan for eternity!
Below, in the auction hall!
"Everyone, today's auction has gone very smoothly. Thank you for your support and support!" Elder Ying laughed heartily at this moment, looking at everyone in the auction hall with a beaming smile.
Elder Ying couldn't help but be happy because today's auction could be said to be exceptionally popular. Until now, the total revenue had reached an astronomical figure. As long as he could safely hold on until tomorrow, when Laozu recovered his strength and mobilized his troops to surround Sun Moon City and get rid of Xiao Fan, he would have done another great service!
At that time, he would certainly be able to take another step forward in the Four Directions Merchant Group. His power, status, wealth, and strength would all increase greatly once again!
"Now, in order to sincerely thank everyone, our Four Directions Merchant Group has specially taken out a great treasure!" Elder Ying said with a smile, "Although the auction is only halfway through, and logically speaking, it should be left for the last auction, there's no harm in taking it out early. So everyone, please open your eyes wide and prepare your money, because that great treasure is about to be auctioned!"
As his voice faded, the light on the auction stage suddenly dimmed, and all the servants retreated, leaving only Elder Ying standing on the auction stage. He was full of smiles as he looked at everyone.
Everyone below the auction stage curiously opened their eyes wide, stretched their necks, and stared intently at the auction stage. They wanted to see what kind of existence the great treasure that Elder Ying was talking about was.
In the VIP room on the second floor, Yu Ziqiu, Bai Shaoyu, Meng Qingyang, and Wu Yuntian's interest was suddenly piqued. They focused their attention on the auction stage, wanting to see what kind of treasure the Four Directions Merchant Group would take out.
The entire auction house suddenly became silent. Everyone held their breaths as they looked at the auction stage.
"Creak!" "Creak!" "Creak!"
Below the auction stage, there was the sound of chains moving that made one's teeth ache. Then, everyone saw twelve iron cages that emitted bursts of chilliness slowly rise from below the auction stage, slowly revealing themselves in front of everyone.
In these twelve cages, there were twelve unconscious people covered in wounds. No one knew if they were dead or alive. They were all tightly bound in the cages, and they couldn't move at all!
Seeing these twelve people, everyone in the auction house was instantly stunned!
These were the great treasures that Elder Ying was talking about?
Was this a joke?
These were only twelve people, and these twelve people didn't seem to have anything special about them. They were very ordinary, yet they said that they were the great treasures of the auction? Was there something wrong with the Four Directions Merchant Group's brain?
At this moment, in the VIP room on the second floor, Yu Ziqiu, Bai Shaoyu, Meng Qingyang, and Wu Yuntian were all frowning. They didn't understand why the Four Directions Merchant Group said that these twelve people were the great treasures of the auction.
