As the atmosphere grew more intense, Shui Wuchang raised a jade box and said, "This jade box contains a jade card. But I want to tell everyone that this isn't an ordinary jade card, but a Dao Confirming Perception Jade Card ….."
Shui Wuchang's words caused a burst of noise, and even some of the private booths felt excited. A Dao Confirming Perception Jade Card was a priceless treasure. Shui Wuchang didn't feel anything wrong with putting it last.
After everyone's excitement calmed down, Shui Wuchang continued, "This Dao Confirming Perception Jade Card came from the Crow Star and was left behind by Daoist Crow before he left."
When Shui Wuchang spoke until here, most people understood what she meant. It wasn't a secret that Daoist Crow left behind the Dao Confirming Perception Inheritance Jade Card. But no one expected that Daoist Crow would leave behind the Dao Confirming Perception Inheritance Jade Card. Everyone sitting in the hall knew that they wouldn't have a share in the Dao Confirming Perception Jade Card. Only Eternal cultivators could compete for such a thing.
Eternal cultivators naturally wouldn't sit in the hall. Most of them were in the private booths. In other words, this Dao Confirming Perception Jade Card was something that only the powerhouses in the private booths could compete for.
Shui Wuchang placed the jade box on the table in front of her, "The Dao Confirming Perception Jade Card has a base price of 10 million Permanent Essence Pills. Each bid must be at least a million Permanent Essence Pills. Let the bidding begin ….."
The starting price of the Dao Confirming Perception Jade Card was 10 million Permanent Essence Pills. It wasn't too expensive, but it also wasn't too cheap. If one could use it to successfully confirm one's Dao, not to mention 10 million, even 100 million Permanent Essence Pills wouldn't be too expensive. But if one couldn't confirm one's Dao after using it, and it even affected one's Dao, then even if it was a free gift, it would still be too expensive.
Ning Cheng hadn't seen Daoist Crow's Dao Confirming Perception Jade Card. He had his own Dao and didn't need to confirm others' Dao.
After Shui Wuchang's words, the auction venue quieted down, and no one bid for a long time.
Ning Cheng touched his chin in a depressed manner. He had planned to use this Dao Confirming Perception Jade Card to exchange for some Permanent Essence Pills to bid for the Starry Sky Radish Grass. But he didn't expect that no one would bid for this thing. Did this mean that no one would bid for it?
If it weren't for the auction taking a 10% cut, Ning Cheng would have already taken the initiative to bid. If he called out a price and no one raised it, he would suffer a huge loss. He was the one who put this thing up for auction.
After a few minutes, Shui Wuchang spoke up with a smile, "It looks like everyone is confident in reaching Dao Confirming Realm and doesn't care much about Daoist Crow's Dao Confirming Perception Jade Card. I'll announce it again. If no one bids, then this Dao Confirming Perception Jade Card will not be auctioned."
"I'll bid 11 million Permanent Essence Pills." This time, Shui Wuchang's words had just ended when an abrupt voice rang out in the hall.
In the hall, the ones who were being called out were the ones with the highest bids on the screen. Now that there was only one person who was bidding, the price was immediately called out.
Without waiting for Shui Wuchang to speak, someone else bid, "12 million Permanent Essence Pills."
As these two prices came out, the scene was like a river bank that had been dug open, and the bids began to flow.
"15 million Permanent Essence Pills."
"16 million …"
…
"21 million Permanent Essence Pills."
The price rose very quickly, and in just a moment, the entire bidding screen was filled with prices. From time to time, the voice calling out the first price.
Ning Cheng couldn't help but sigh. He had a good opportunity. Apart from the 20 Starry Sky Essence Qi Veins he obtained from Duan Gantai, he also had a few million Permanent Essence Pills.
From the looks of it, there were too many rich cultivators around. No wonder Yan Xishuang could easily take out 10 million Permanent Essence Pills. The starry skies were vast, and everyone really had a chance to obtain opportunities.
"20 million Permanent Essence Pills plus a complete high-rank star vein."
A new bid once again suppressed the other bids. Star veins were actually Starry Sky Essence Qi Spirit Veins, but the purity of Starry Sky Essence Qi Spirit Veins couldn't compare to Permanent Essence Pills. However, a Starry Sky Essence Qi Spirit Vein definitely contained more than 10 million Permanent Essence Pills.
Once this bid came out, no one else continued to increase the price. Ning Cheng felt satisfied with this price. What he lacked was a lot of Permanent Essence Pills.
With the support of so many Permanent Essence Pills, as long as he obtained the Starry Sky Radish Grass, he could definitely advance to the Eternal Realm.
The third and fourth items up for auction were the Fiery Silver Wings and the Heavenly Gathering Flying Sand, both top-grade artefact-crafting materials and treasures for crafting top-grade Dao Artefacts.
Ning Cheng didn't bid, and the two items quickly sold for tens of millions of Perpetual Moon Pills.
"The next item up for auction is an attack-type weapon ….."
Shui Wuchang hadn't even finished her words when Ning Cheng lost interest. He himself was a top-grade artefact-crafting master. Even if it was a top-grade weapon, as long as he had the materials, he could craft it.
"This weapon is a long spear. I believe many people have already guessed it. That's right, this is one of the three spirit artefacts in this auction, the Celestial Rainbow Purgatory Spear. The Celestial Rainbow Purgatory Spear is undoubtedly a spirit artefact. After the appraisal of several seniors, the grade of this long spear definitely exceeds that of a semi-spirit artefact. It might even be a low-rank spirit artefact. If you wield the Celestial Rainbow Purgatory Spear as an attack-type weapon, your strength would be much stronger than others in the same realm ….. "
Shui Wuchang's words immediately attracted the attention of most of the cultivators who had the qualifications to obtain the Celestial Rainbow Purgatory Spear. They all wanted to know if they could buy this treasure.
Even Ning Cheng felt his heart move. A long spear wasn't rare, and he could craft a lot of them. But a low-rank spirit artefact long spear was a different story. Not to mention that he couldn't craft low-rank spirit artefacts right now. Even if he could craft low-rank spirit artefacts, he didn't have the materials. Moreover, materials for crafting low-rank spirit artefacts weren't easy to find.
Thinking about the fact that he didn't have a suitable weapon, Ning Cheng made up his mind to purchase this Celestial Rainbow Purgatory Spear. If he fought against Chuan Xinlou in the future, he would need a good weapon.
Seeing the emotions stirred up by her words, Shui Wuchang showed a sweet smile and called out, "The base price of the Celestial Rainbow Purgatory Spear is 1 million Permanent Essence Pills, and each increase must be no less than 100,000 Permanent Essence Pills."
Ning Cheng hadn't even started bidding when the price on the bidding screen jumped to 3.7 million Permanent Essence Pills. Moreover, the price kept rising.
Ning Cheng had originally planned to use Perpetual Moon Pills to purchase the Celestial Rainbow Purgatory Spear, but he gave up on the idea. Although he had a lot of Perpetual Moon Pills, he didn't have many Perpetual Moon Pills for a sect.
"Don't compete with me. I bid 5 million Permanent Essence Pills." A loud voice filled the hall, and at the same time, a price of 5 million Permanent Essence Pills appeared at the top of the bidding screen.
Many of the cultivators in the hall didn't know who this person was, but most of the cultivators in the private booths knew who this person was. Most of the powerhouses who came here to participate in the auction were like Ning Cheng. Most of them would inquire about competitors that they couldn't afford to offend to avoid conflicts.
The reason why Ning Cheng didn't ask about them was not because he didn't fear anyone. But because he had only started cultivating for a short time. Compared to those powerhouses who had lived for tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands, or even millions of years, he knew too few people. Even if he wanted to inquire about them, he didn't know where to start.
Some of the starry sky clans and big sects couldn't simply ask a few questions. It was the accumulation of experience over a long period of time. Don't look at Ning Cheng's strength in Grand Culmination Starry Sky. Not many people in the Devil Domain and Demon Domain cared about him. This was also the reason why Ash Pagoda Chamber of Commerce invited Chuan Xinlou and Spiritual Heaven Sect's Chen Xingwen to participate in the auction, but not Ning Cheng.
Moreover, Ning Cheng came here mainly for the Starry Sky Radish Grass. He didn't expect to see the Celestial Rainbow Purgatory Spear here.
Knowing about the power behind the cultivator who bid 5 million Permanent Essence Pills, everyone knew that this person wasn't being arrogant and brainless, but truly had the ability to do so. If one could save hundreds of Permanent Essence Pills with just a few words, why not take advantage of it?
Even if they didn't know who the cultivator who bid 5 million Permanent Essence Pills was, they knew that this person wasn't someone to mess with. Who would dare to say such words in the auction? How could a person who was easy to deal with occupy box 19 in this kind of auction? One had to know that the closer the booth was to the front, the higher the status.
Shui Wuchang, seeing that no one continued to increase the price, raised her voice, "Booth No. 19 bids 5 million Permanent Essence Pills. Anyone else? Five million Permanent Essence Pills going once …. "
Apparently, Shui Wuchang also knew who the person in this booth was. Therefore, she didn't take too long to call out the bid.
However, before she could call out a second time, the price on the bidding screen refreshed. The latest bid was a complete high-grade Starry Sky Essence Qi Spirit Vein.
Ning Cheng also felt helpless. The auction house still owed him Permanent Essence Pills. Therefore, he could only use the Starry Sky Essence Qi Spirit Vein to bid.
As soon as this bid came out, the entire auction venue fell into a brief silence. A high-grade Starry Sky Essence Qi Spirit Vein compared to the previous bid of 5 million Permanent Essence Pills. Wasn't this bid a bit too much? But this wasn't the main reason for the silence in the venue.
The main reason for the silence in the venue was a row of conspicuous words in front of the quotation. Hall 39, Row 137, quoted a high-grade Starry Sky Essence Qi Spirit Vein.
In just a few breaths, several spiritual consciousnesses swept over to Ning Cheng. Everyone wanted to know where this idiot came from.
More than a dozen powerful spiritual consciousnesses touched Ning Cheng, but they immediately retracted them. Apparently, these people knew who Ning Cheng was. They also understood. No wonder they dared to bid.
Some cultivators, who didn't know who Ning Cheng was, still used their spiritual consciousnesses to scan Ning Cheng for a long time.
Ning Cheng remained calm. Since he was sitting in the hall, he didn't plan to hide his whereabouts. Sitting next to Ning Cheng was a middle-aged female cultivator. It wasn't until many powerful spiritual consciousnesses swept over that she realised that the cultivator sitting next to her dared to bid against booth No. 19.
Although these spiritual consciousnesses didn't sweep towards her, her face still turned pale with fright. She cautiously sent a sound transmission to Ning Cheng, "Friend, quickly withdraw your bid ….."
She stopped halfway through her words, as she understood that she had spoken nonsense. Withdrawing one's bid in this auction would only result in death.
