Book One, Zhao Fu
When the auction began, Zhao Fu brought Arasina and the others to the auction hall. The Outer World's auction hall was different to the Heaven Awaken World's auction hall; it was a stone building that was open-air. It looked like a colosseum and was split into levels.
Zhao Fu had VIP status, so he could sit at the top level. However, apart from a platform, a stone table, and a few stone stools, there was nothing else there. There was nothing to hide it, so everyone could see it.
This was quite different to the Heaven Awaken World's auction hall, so Zhao Fu did not mind too much and sat on a stone stool to wait.
Time gradually passed, and more and more people came to the auction hall. At a glance, it was filled with people. This auction was held by the Yao Ming Financial Group, and it attracted many people's gazes.
Zhao Fu looked at the people sitting at the top level with interest. They were also the Yao Ming Financial Group's VIP and had prestigious statuses and powerful auras. What interested Zhao Fu was their bloodlines.
Even the weakest of their bloodlines was a Royal Bloodline, and there were other powerful bloodlines.
Zhao Fu's number one Evil Celestial Bloodline could sense the strength of each person's bloodline. Ordinary concealment abilities were useless against Zhao Fu, and this ability made it easier for the number one Evil Celestial to devour other bloodlines.
At that moment, the auction officially began. A young man walked up to the stone stage at the center and pushed out a cage covered with a white cloth.
The young man smiled as he said, "My name is Shiraishi Yue, and I am honored to host this auction. Now, let me introduce the first auction item."
As Shiraishi Yue spoke, he pulled down the white cloth. Within the cage was a small cow that was completely violet and had three eyes. Its horns gave off violet arcs of lightning.
"This is a Lightning Tide Cow Calf, and it has massive lightning power. When it explodes out with its full power, it can form a lightning tide. Its aptitude is quite good, and the starting price is 100,000 gold coins."
As expected from the Yao Ming Financial Group; the first auction item was already so good. Sensing the lightning power that could cause people's hairs to stand on end, everyone became incredibly excited and started to bid.
"200,000 gold coins!"
"300,000 gold coins!"
"500,000 gold coins!"
"650,000 gold coins!"
…
In the end, this Thunder Tide Bull was sold for one million gold coins, and it was won by a well-built man. One million gold coins was already quite high, and the Advanced Alliance Quests were only worth one million gold coins. None of the Advanced Alliance Quests were simple.
Zhao Fu and the upper echelons were definitely not interested. The lightning power of the Thunder Tide Bull was not weak, but it was a little weak to them.
The second item was pushed out. It was a very large insect egg that was about one meter long. It gave off a white light and a powerful aura of life.
Shiraishi Yue said, "One Valley White Worm Egg. It can be fused into your body and can save your life at a critical moment. The starting price is 250,000 gold coins."
This kind of Valley White Insect Egg had a very powerful life force and could be fused into one's body. When one was injured, one could consume this insect egg to obtain a powerful life force, allowing one's injuries to quickly recover. At a critical moment, it could indeed save one's life.
"300,000 gold coins!"
To everyone, this was a life-saving treasure, and they did not want to miss out on it. Soon, people started bidding.
Zhao Fu was still not interested because it had fused with the Valley White Worm King Bloodline and had the Valley White Worm's abilities. Now that Zhao Fu had fused with so many bloodlines, he could sense all races with the same bloodline.
In the end, this Valley White Worm Egg was won by a middle-aged woman, and the price was 1.5 million gold coins.
Following this, the third item was quickly brought up. It was a piece of ore that was as big as a watermelon. It was dark gray and gave off a cold deathly aura.
Shiraishi Yue explained, "Souldeath Iron, an exquisite material for forging deathly attribute weapons. The starting price is 280,000 gold coins."
This was also a rare material, and those with deathly attributes immediately started bidding.
"400,000 gold coins!"
"500,000 gold coins!"
"700,000 gold coins!"
…
In the end, the third item was won by a cold-looking young man. The starting price was 1.7 million gold coins, which was a bit more than the second item.
Following this was the fourth, fifth, and sixth item.
Everyone started bidding, and the scene was quite lively.
The seventh item was a flower seed called the October Rose Flower. It was a very rare flower that could strengthen one's body, and the starting price was 800,000 gold coins.
This was also a body-strengthening treasure, and everyone wanted it as well. Just as they were about to start bidding …
Just as they were about to bid, a voice sounded out from the top, "Five million gold coins!"
Everyone looked up and looked at the beautiful and mature woman. They felt quite surprised that there were higher-ups bidding at this time, and they all knew that none of these higher-ups had prestigious statuses or were powerful.
The other people sitting in the higher-ups felt quite surprised as they looked at Zhao Fu and the others.
Zhao Fu also looked at Skeletal Beauty and did not look surprised. With her personality, she definitely would not let go of such a rare high-grade spirit flower.
Facing Zhao Fu's gaze, Skeletal Beauty said in a pleasing tone, "I'll buy this one!"
Now that her money and valuable items were all in Zhao Fu's hands, Skeletal Beauty did not have that much money, and she was afraid that Zhao Fu would not buy it for her.
Zhao Fu lightly laughed as she said, "You can buy as much as you want!"
Skeletal Beauty let out a sigh of relief and gave a trace of a smile. She had a slightly favorable impression of Zhao Fu, but she felt that it was quite strange. After all, this money had been taken by Zhao Fu from Skeletal Beauty, and now, as the owner, Skeletal Beauty had to ask for Zhao Fu's permission.
This flower's price was at most three million gold coins, and Skeletal Beauty directly bid five million. No one wanted to compete with Skeletal Beauty, and they understood that they could not outbid her. As such, they did not bid, and this flower was successfully won by Skeletal Beauty.
After obtaining this flower, Skeletal Beauty became quite happy. To her, the most meaningful thing in her life was to collect all of the flowers in the world.
Following this, more and more items were brought up, and their prices became higher and higher.
The 29th item was a medicinal bottle.
Shiraishi Yue introduced, "This is an Insect Life Pill, which can cure the Insect Transformation Disease. The starting price is three million gold coins."
The Insect Transformation Disease was a terrifying disease in the Outer World. One's body would gradually become an insect, and those who contracted this disease would die in pain. This disease was incredibly difficult to cure, and even ordinary Emperor Heaven Realm Cultivators would not be able to cure it.
This pill that could treat the Insect Transformation Disease could be said to be extremely precious, so there were a lot of people bidding for it.
"3.5 million!"
"4 million!"
"4.2 million!"
