"Brother Chen, I'll go over there and have a look." Wen Shi's eyes shone brightly. He had a feeling that he was about to discover a treasure. After saying that, he turned around and left to act alone.
Chen Zong smiled and quickly walked to the other side.
There were a total of six hundred treasures. They were either found within the Rogue Cultivator Alliance or accumulated through exchanging with the outside world. After the Rogue Cultivator Alliance's insistence, they eliminated those fake or worthless treasures and selected the valuable ones to be used in this grand assembly.
Of course, they were valuable, but as to how valuable they were, no one knew. This was because even the appraisers of the Rogue Cultivator Alliance could not determine the specific use of some of them. They could only confirm that they were not fake. That was all.
Chen Zong walked around with great interest. He walked past one treasure after another, stopping for a moment before each treasure to observe it carefully.
However, the transparent cover not only had an amazing defensive power, it could also block the probing of Divine Sense, making it impossible for people to see the details of the treasures.
In this grand assembly, one had to rely on one's eyesight and luck.
Chen Zong kept glancing around and found that some of the treasures, he could roughly tell what they were and what they were used for at a glance. However, they were of no use to him and did not have much value. Chen Zong was not interested in them.
Beside each treasure, there was a clear price, such as the price of Cosmos Divine Crystals and so on. Of course, this was not the final price, but the starting price. If someone took a fancy to it, they could name the price. However, if more people took a fancy to it, they would have to compete on the spot. In the end, the highest bidder would win.
Some people had already started bidding. If it were not for the fact that fighting was not allowed here, they would have already fought to the death.
Even so, he still looked at them coldly. One had to know that this grand assembly was not like those auctions, where the rooms were isolated from the outside world. Therefore, it was usually not clear who had won the bid.
Here, everyone was directly facing each other, surrounding the treasures and bidding. It was very direct and clear.
Suddenly, Chen Zong stopped in his tracks again. His eyes narrowed slightly as he stared at something in the transparent barrier in front of him.
It looked like a small blade. Chen Zong couldn't take his eyes off it. He felt that the small blade looked familiar. No, it looked very familiar.
Chen Zong took a step forward and arrived in front of the treasure. He looked at the price tag on it.
300,000 Cosmos God Crystals!
Speaking of which, this was not a cheap price.
Around them, there were other people watching as well. However, no one made a bid because they didn't know what that small sword was. What was the use of it?
Without hesitation, Chen Zong directly bid 300,000 Cosmos God Crystals.
Given Chen Zong's current wealth, it was easy for him to take out 300,000 Cosmos God Crystals.
After bidding, there would be a waiting period. If no one else made a bid during the waiting period, then the item would belong to the bidder.
About thirty breaths of time had passed.
After Chen Zong made his bid, he waited calmly. But in his heart, he was actually nervous.
Because Chen Zong felt that this item would be very useful to him.
One breath, two breaths, three breaths …
Time passed slowly. In the blink of an eye, ten breaths had passed. Closely following that, another twenty breaths passed. There were only ten breaths of time left before the time limit ended.
Immediately, someone made a bid of 310,000 Cosmos God Crystals.
After all, there were still some people surrounding the small sword. Even though some didn't know what it was, they still made a bid with the mentality of gambling.
After 310,000, someone made a bid of 320,000.
Just like a fuse, the number of people bidding increased gradually. Very soon, the price reached 400,000 Cosmos God Crystals.
"500,000!"
Suddenly, two voices sounded at the same time. One was Chen Zong, and the other was a young man with a sword on his back who had just arrived.
Chen Zong's gaze swept over instantly. He saw an extremely sharp gaze like the edge of a sword staring at him at the same time. With a flash of light, the other party's gaze pierced through everything like a sword breaking through space. It carried a shocking sword intent as if it wanted to pierce through Chen Zong's eyes.
That sword intent had a shocking sharpness and madness.
Following that, Chen Zong's sword intent also burst out through his gaze. It collided in the air, causing invisible ripples to spread out like crazy waves.
The sword intent surged, shocking everyone in the surroundings. Even some fourth level experts were astonished. This level of sword intent was extremely profound. Even some fourth level experts couldn't possess it.
Sword Dao prodigies!
These were two sword dao prodigies.
"It's the people from Myriad Ren Sect and Trade Wind Sect." Someone said in a low voice.
"That's Marquis Heaven Scar from Myriad Ren Sect, a sword dao prodigy ranked in the top 3,000 on the God General List." Someone recognized the young expert from Myriad Ren Sect and exclaimed.
"Who's the other one?"
"I don't know. It's Violet Feather Cool Breeze, but he's definitely from Trade Wind Sect."
"Could he be Purple Thunder Swordsman Tie Jianling from Trade Wind Sect?"
"It doesn't seem like it."
"Friend, this plaything might be useful to me. Please give me some face." Marquis Heaven Scar from Myriad Ren Sect was inwardly astonished by Chen Zong's shocking sword intent. He spoke at the same time. His voice was like metal clashing, containing a shocking sharpness that seemed to be able to tear through everything.
"I like it." Chen Zong directly replied.
"Since that's the case, then the highest bidder will get it." Marquis Heaven Scar's eyes flashed. He sneered, "600,000."
The surrounding people were shocked. After all, most of the people gathered here were at the third level, with a few at the fourth level.
Taking out 600,000 Cosmos God Crystals in one go was a huge sum to the majority of third level cultivators. Even some fourth level cultivators wouldn't find it so easy.
"1,000,000." Chen Zong did not hesitate to raise the price.
"Si …" Immediately, many people took in a cold breath. From 700,000 to 1,000,000, it was a shocking increase.
Marquis Heaven Scar's double pupils contracted to the size of needles.
1,000,000 Cosmos God Crystals was definitely not a small sum to him.
"1,100,000!" Marquis Heaven Scar bid again. However, unlike Chen Zong, he didn't raise the price by a lot. At the same time, a terrifying sword intent rose from his body, condensing into an illusory sword image that locked onto Chen Zong.
Using strength to suppress others!
However, it didn't affect Chen Zong at all.
"1,500,000!" Chen Zong increased the price even more this time. He was determined to get it.
Because this small blade was almost identical to the one he obtained from the Sword Sharpening Technique, Chen Zong's intuition told him that this item was related to the Sword Sharpening Mountain. Therefore, he had to get it. Who knows, there might be an even more advanced Sword Sharpening Technique inside.
Not to mention 1,000,000 Cosmos God Crystals, even if it was 2,000,000 or 3,000,000, Chen Zong was willing to take it out as long as he had it.
Cosmos God Crystals were wealth. What was the point of saving money?
Wasn't it so that he could make a move at the crucial moment?
As for using up all the Cosmos God Crystals, he could earn more. As long as he was stronger, he could earn more.
On the other hand, if he wasn't strong enough, then he would only attract covetous eyes and fall into danger.
Marquis Heaven Scar's expression changed when he heard Chen Zong's bid. This price was too high.
"1,800,000!" Gritting his teeth, Marquis Heaven Scar bid an even higher price. This was already the limit he could take out. If not for the fact that he had just used up a sum of Cosmos God Crystals, he could take out even more.
"2,000,000!" Chen Zong did not hesitate to increase the price. It was a price that shocked everyone in the surroundings. It was also a price that made Marquis Heaven Scar feel despair.
Without speaking, Marquis Heaven Scar's gaze became even sharper. It was like the edge of a sword that wanted to pierce through Chen Zong.
Spending two million Cosmos God Crystals to purchase an item of unknown use, this price was simply too high.
Perhaps it was a very good treasure, but it was full of uncertainty.
The value of a treasure was relative. If it was suitable, its value would be high. If it wasn't suitable, its value would be low unless it was exchanged with others.
If the price wasn't high, one could consider buying it and then reselling it. But now that the price had reached 2,000,000 Cosmos God Crystals, even some fourth level experts would find it hard to take out such a price.
One breath, two breaths, three breaths … time continued to pass. Marquis Heaven Scar's eyes looked at the small sword before looking at Chen Zong. He could no longer afford a higher price. 1,800,000 Cosmos God Crystals was his limit.
"It's better to be alive to obtain this item." Marquis Heaven Scar finally said before turning and leaving.
Thirty breaths passed. That small sword belonged to Chen Zong, and Chen Zong had also paid a high price of 2,000,000 Cosmos God Crystals for it.
After handing over 2,000,000 Cosmos God Crystals, the protective barrier was opened, allowing Chen Zong to personally take that small sword. Of course, there would be experts from the Rogue Cultivator Alliance watching from the side to prevent others from snatching it.
In the past, there had indeed been similar cases, but those who tried to snatch it were killed before they could even get the item. They died a miserable death.
The moment the small sword entered his hands, Chen Zong was certain that it was a sword related to the Grinding Sword Mountain. Or it could be said that it was a token similar to the Grinding Sword Command from before. Perhaps, it really was a Grinding Sword Command.
Chen Zong could not help but feel his heart burning.
If it really was a Grinding Sword Command, after deciphering the sword patterns on it, he would have a new harvest.
Of course, it was also possible that he would not gain anything.
This was a huge gamble, a gamble of 2,000,000 Cosmos God Crystals. That was a sum that Chen Zong had spent dozens of years accumulating.
If he really did not gain anything, it would mean that the wealth that Chen Zong had accumulated over the years would be gone.
Not long later, Chen Zong found Wen Shi and told him that he planned to return to the Trade Wind Sect. As for Wen Shi, he had not found anything that he liked and planned to stay for a while.
Carrying the small sword, Chen Zong flew out of the Myriad Origin Gathering. A gaze was staring at Chen Zong from afar. Seeing that Chen Zong was heading out of the Myriad Origin Gathering, that person sneered. His eyes were cold. With a flash, he hurriedly followed, rushing out of the Myriad Origin Gathering right after Chen Zong.
