When Yu Xiuzhai's voice fell, the auction venue went into an uproar.
There were many stewards in the Myriad Elephant Chamber of Commerce. For example, Cao Xiang, who Lu Ye often met, was a steward in the chamber of commerce. However, he was only responsible for receiving guests and making transactions with them, which was very different from a steward like Yu Xiuzhai.
Someone like Yu Xiuzhai had a high position in the Myriad Elephant Chamber of Commerce and wouldn't easily appear in public. No one expected him to host this auction. Many people realized that there would be a lot of rare and good things in this auction, otherwise, a master like Yu Xiuzhai wouldn't have come out.
On the high platform, Yu Xiuzhai didn't speak any nonsense. After introducing himself, he gestured to the side. Another beam of light shone down from an unknown place. Shrouded in the light, a tall woman walked out from the side with a plate in her hands and stood beside Yu Xiuzhai.
There was a red cloth covering the plate. Yu Xiuzhai raised his hand to remove it and slowly said, "Thirty bottles of top quality Spirit Recovery Pills. If any Fellow Daoist wants them, you can bid. No reserve price!"
After a moment of silence, the hall was immediately filled with the sound of bidding. Lu Ye found that even some of the people in the private rooms were very interested in this Top Grade Spirit Restoring Pill.
The quality of spirit pills was divided into good and bad. Different alchemists would refine different spirit pills of different quality. Even the same alchemist couldn't guarantee that the quality of their spirit pills would be the same.
Needless to say, waste pills were the result of broken refinement and had no value. Finished spirit pills were divided into four grades: low, middle, high, and top quality.
The higher the grade, the less impurities there would be in the spirit pill.
For example, the spirit pills Lu Ye bought in the marketplace had very few impurities and were basically at the level of high quality spirit pills. Such spirit pills naturally had little harm to cultivators because there were very few pill toxins in them.
The impurities in top quality spirit pills were almost negligible. In theory, there wouldn't be too many hidden dangers if a cultivator were to consume them. As a result, a cultivator's cultivation efficiency would greatly increase with the help of top quality spirit pills.
However, no matter which chamber of commerce it was, top-grade Spirit Pills were hard to come by. The birth of this kind of Spirit Pill was basically not under the control of an Alchemist. Basically, only when an Alchemist was lucky enough to refine one or two Spirit Pills would they be able to produce.
Even for the Vientiane Chamber of Commerce, taking out thirty bottles in one go would require a period of time to accumulate them. Such an item was undoubtedly qualified to be the first item of the auction. Moreover, everyone needed Spirit Dans, so it was easy to stir up the atmosphere of the auction.
If Lu Ye didn't have the Talent Tree, he would definitely be very interested in these Spirit Pills. However, with the Talent Tree, no matter how high the quality of these Spirit Pills was, they weren't very attractive to him.
After a round of bidding, many people backed out. It wasn't until the time it took to brew a cup of tea that a person from room C4 won the bid, and the price far exceeded the normal purchase price.
After the auction ended, the woman holding the plate withdrew. Another woman ascended the stage, also holding a plate. However, instead of a jade bottle, the plate contained a short arrow. It looked very strange.
Yu Xiuzhai said, "The Heaven Splitter Arrow is a rare treasure. Although it is a Spirit Artifact, its power is not inferior to a Three-Star Transcendent Artifact's attack. The starting bid is 100,000 Spirit Jades. Fellow Daoists, please make your bids!"
Lu Ye couldn't help but feel a bit tempted. Although the Heaven Splitter Arrow was very far away from him and he couldn't see it clearly, nor could he use it to feel its power, the Vientiane Chamber of Commerce wouldn't cheat in this regard. Since Yu Xiuzhai said that its power was not inferior to a Three-Star Transcendent Artifact's attack, then it had to be true.
Lu Ye's current strength was in a rather awkward state. He could be said to be invincible in the Constellation Realm, but he was still lacking when it came to Yue Yao. This was mainly due to the difference in cultivation levels. Although the Ten Thousand Tidal Waves could allow him to barely put up a fight against an ordinary Yue Yao, in a true battle of life and death, he definitely wasn't a match for any Yue Yao.
He still had the red talisman that Su Yuqing had given him. That thing was a great killing tool, but it could only be used once.
If there was any method or treasure that could deal with Yue Yao, he naturally didn't want to miss it.
He raised his hand and pressed it against the protruding object on the armrest of his chair. His Divine Sense surged, and he made a bid.
However, he had clearly underestimated the popularity of a rare treasure like the Heaven Splitter Arrow among cultivators. This was only the second auction item, and the entire auction house was already in a frenzy. All kinds of bids rose and fell, and there was almost no time for them to rest.
Lu Ye made a few more bids, but they were all quickly surpassed by others.
After a long while, Yu Xiuzhai suddenly looked towards Lu Ye's room and said, "Fellow Daoist in Room D9 bids 1,300,000 Spirit Jades …"
Before he finished speaking, he looked towards another room and said, "Fellow Daoist in Room A6 bids 1,320,000 Spirit Jades!"
It was only a Spirit Treasure, but it had actually been auctioned for such a high price. It was unimaginable because even if it was a Magic Weapon, that much Spirit Jades could buy a Five-Star Magic Weapon.
The power that the Heaven Splitter Arrow could display was only equivalent to a single attack from a Three-Star Magic Weapon. Moreover, it was a rare treasure, which meant that it could only be used once.
In the end, it was because Star Constellations couldn't use the power of Magic Weapons. No matter how good a Magic Weapon was, it was useless if Star Constellations couldn't use their Spirit Qi. However, the Heaven Splitter Arrow was different. It was something that Star Constellations could use. To Star Constellations, it was a life-saving treasure, so they naturally wouldn't complain about its price.
This was also the reason why Purple Talismans were so expensive. In particular, Purple Talismans from the Dwarf Clan were definitely good things that everyone would fight over. As for Red Talismans … they were simply treasures that couldn't be obtained.
After a few more rounds of bidding, Lu Ye finally won the Heaven Splitter Arrow at the price of 1,800,000 Spirit Jades.
It wasn't that the cultivator from Room A6 didn't have as much wealth as he did. Those who could enter the side rooms had to fork out at least 10,000,000 Spirit Jades to verify the price. However, they might have other things they wanted to buy, so they weren't willing to spend too much on the Heaven Splitter Arrow. Thus, they could only give up helplessly.
Another auction item was presented. Lu Ye glanced at it. It was a good item, but he wasn't very interested. Thus, he waited quietly.
After a while, someone knocked on the door and entered. They brought the Heaven Splitter Arrow over, and Lu Ye paid the corresponding amount of Spirit Jades.
He had also obtained a rare treasure like this when he was in the Nine Provinces. However, although they were of the same type, the treasures of the Nine Provinces naturally couldn't be compared to the Heaven Splitter Arrow.
Lu Ye was very satisfied as he toyed with the Heaven Splitter Arrow in his hand. If he met Yue Yao again, this thing could more or less intimidate her to a certain extent. If he used it well, he might even be able to injure her.
Therefore, although 1,800,000 Spirit Jades wasn't a small amount, he felt that it was worth it.
As expected of the Myriad Elephant Commerce Hall's auction, good items were endless. All kinds of secret techniques, cultivation methods, spirit pills, treasures, rare treasures, and rare treasures were presented one after another.
Lu Ye originally only wanted to bid for a piece of Heavenly Phoenix Blue Crystal. However, halfway through the auction, he had already bid for several items.
Some were things he wanted, while others were things he felt were suitable for Hua Ci, Second Senior Sister, and the others. He was prepared to give them to them when he had the opportunity to return to the Nine Provinces.
He hadn't even seen the Heavenly Phoenix Blue Crystal yet, but he had already spent nearly 10,000,000 Spirit Jades.
Lu Ye realized that something was wrong. He only had 50,000,000 Spirit Jades in total. After spending 10,000,000 Spirit Jades, he only had 40,000,000 Spirit Jades left. Although this amount of Spirit Jades should be enough to buy a piece of Heavenly Phoenix Blue Crystal, he still had to be cautious. He couldn't participate in any more auctions.
No matter how good the items were, he couldn't!
Lu Ye secretly made up his mind.
On the high platform, Yu Xiuzhai was still standing there in a relaxed manner. Another auction item appeared on the stage. As soon as this auction item appeared, many people revealed curious expressions.
It was actually a cage. Many people looked at it with puzzlement. Lu Ye was also looking at it. Soon, he revealed a look of surprise because he vaguely felt that there was something inside the cage, but also that there wasn't.
The cage was undoubtedly a treasure. After it was pushed up by the Myriad Elephant Commerce Hall's maidservant, Yu Xiuzhai didn't say anything. He just casually patted the cage.
Magic power surged and the cage flashed. A figure suddenly appeared in the cage!
The figure seemed to have been in the cage the whole time, but no one had seen it before.
The venue was suddenly in an uproar. Everyone's eyes were focused on the figure.
Lu Ye was also looking. As he looked, he revealed an extremely surprised expression because he found that the person in the cage gave him a very familiar feeling.
This kind of familiarity didn't mean that he knew the person or anything, but that he had encountered this type of person before.
The figure in the cage was definitely not a human, nor was it a concealment method. If the other party had been in a concealed state just now, Lu Ye should have been able to see some clues.
Judging from the figure, the other party seemed to be a woman, but her long hair draped over her shoulders and covered her cheeks, making it impossible to see her appearance. Through the gaps between the scattered hair, Lu Ye could see a pair of eyes filled with hatred and hatred. These eyes were filled with blood and tears as they stared fiercely at Yu Xiuzhai, as if they wanted to devour him!
Lu Ye frowned. Although he had long heard that the Myriad Elephant Commerce Hall's auction would occasionally have some rare races appear, he didn't expect to see one this time.
He didn't know what race this was, but since it could be placed in the auction, it must be a very rare and precious race. For example, if the Monster Race and the Mermaid Race appeared in the auction at this moment, it would inevitably arouse the interest of many people.
Yu Xiuzhai said, "The Soul Race! A powerful master captured her somewhere in the Starry Sky and entrusted her to the Myriad Elephant Commerce Hall to auction. There is no reserve price. If any Fellow Daoist is interested, you may bid! "
Lu Ye was surprised.
The Soul Race! It was actually the Soul Race!
Just like the Fey Race and the Mermaid Race under the Ten Thousand Elephant Sea that Lu Ye had come into contact with, the Soul Race was also an extremely rare and precious race in the starry skies. Such races all had a common characteristic, which was that they had their own unique racial talents that could bring great benefits to cultivators. It was also because of this that many cultivators coveted them.
