In the first auction, the Jade Bone Fruit was successfully auctioned off at a high price of three million Spirit Coins. This was undoubtedly a good start for the auction this time around. When the smile on the old man's face on the auction stage relaxed, one after another quite valuable auction items appeared in the old man's hands. Various Qi Methods and Dou Techniques appeared one after another. This old man was just like a treasure trove. It was as though the treasures in his hands were inexhaustible.
Of course, following the successful auction of the first auction item, the atmosphere in the auction house was gradually stirred up. The old man on the auction stage also struck while the iron was hot. He took out other auction items one after another. These auction items also relied on their high value and the auctioneer's intentional flattery to cause everyone in the auction house to raise the price crazily. Sounds of bidding continuously sounded in the auction house. Following which, the corners of the old man's mouth gradually lifted into a smile. In the end, these auction items were all sold for quite a good price.
However, it must be said that the reason these auction items were able to be sold for such a high price was not a coincidence. From the looks of the quality of these auction items, they were definitely the most precious items that Xiao Yan had seen in all these years. Of course, this kind of preciousness was only seen through the eyes of the public. The things that could truly move the hearts of Xiao Yan and those elite Dou Di on the stage had yet to appear.
As time slowly flowed by, the auction ground continued under this fiery atmosphere for a couple of hours. At the same time, the quality of the auction items that appeared in the auction ground became increasingly higher. The atmosphere within the auction ground also became increasingly fiery.
This auction continued for a full day. At this moment, some of the auction items that had appeared were already able to cause those elite Dou Di in the auction ground to bid. Some of them even caused Xiao Yan to have the impulse to bid. However, after some consideration, Xiao Yan still did not easily open his mouth. It was better to choose something that was suitable for him when purchasing things.
As those elite Dou Di on the stage competed with each other, the atmosphere within the auction ground became increasingly fiery. Due to the fact that most of the factions that participated in the auction this time around were factions under the rule of the Heavenly Sword Sect, most of them did not see eye to eye with each other due to their own interests. If some of the factions that had a fiery relationship with each other were to meet, they would definitely go all out to raise the price. That imposing manner of not giving up until the other party was crushed caused quite a number of people to quietly click their tongues. They were indeed worthy of being factions under the rule of the Heavenly Sword Sect. Compared to those ordinary factions present, this kind of wealth was not something that they could easily achieve!
Xiao Yan could not help but laugh involuntarily in the face of those red-eyed and thick-necked people. His body lazily leaned against the back of the chair. He extended a finger and gently tapped on the armrest.
Under Xiao Yan's gaze, which seemed to be watching a show, the old man on the auction stage waved his sleeve. Following a flash of light, another jade box appeared in front of everyone's eyes.
The instant that jade box appeared, an extremely dense bloodthirsty aura surged out from within. A thin layer of red-colored fog agglomerated in the empty space around the jade box. If one were to carefully sniff it, one would actually be able to smell a faint bloody scent from it.
"Everyone, the next item to be auctioned is a Monster Core."
On the auction stage, the old man's mouth opened and closed as he slowly spat out a sentence.
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone on the stage immediately looked towards the jade box in the old man's hand in unison. They couldn't help but reveal a wisp of doubt in their eyes. This old man actually took out a Monster Core in an auction of this level. Isn't this a little too casual?
It should be known that in the Origin Martial Continent, the Monster Cores of ordinary low-rank Magical Beasts were no longer of interest to ordinary experts below the Half-emperor level. After all, as one's strength increased, the Monster Cores of low-rank Magical Beasts were no longer of any value to Half-emperors.
As for the Monster Cores of high-rank Magical Beasts, although they were precious, they were very difficult to obtain. Not to mention how difficult it was to kill a high-rank Magical Beast, even if one had the ability to kill it, these Magical Beasts would usually risk their lives and self-destruct their Monster Cores at the last moment in order to achieve the goal of perishing together with their enemies.
It was precisely because of this that high-rank Monster Cores that could truly be auctioned on the continent were extremely rare. After all, when faced with powerful Magical Beasts, even humans were unwilling to rashly become enemies with them.
Experts naturally had their own rules. Perhaps they were unwilling to follow them in the beginning, but as time passed, they would naturally understand each other better. No one wished to bring disaster upon themselves. As a result, the deaths of truly powerful Magical Beasts were even rarer. This also meant that the Monster Cores of high-rank Magical Beasts were destined to be pitifully few and far between.
"Everyone did not mishear. The auction item for this round is a Monster Core."
The old man spoke once more, and his firm tone confirmed the suspicion in everyone's hearts.
As the old man's words sounded, the expressions of everyone on the stage changed slightly. However, at this moment, from where the Bai clan and the Huo clan were located, Bai Ying's eyes instantly locked onto the jade box in the old man's hand below the stage. A fiery heat surged within his eyes. As for Bai Zhan by the side, even though the emotions in the depths of his heart were similarly fluctuating, there was an indifferent expression on his face.
On the other side, Huo Ting and Huo Yuning from the Huo family revealed expressions of pleasant surprise. Others might not know, but they knew. Wasn't this what they had waited so long for? Now, it had finally come!
On the stone stage, the old man flicked his finger, and a stream of light immediately shot out from his fingertip. It lifted the jade box but did not shatter it.
The lid of the jade box flew into the air, revealing a fist-sized scarlet bead in the jade box.
This bead was a magic core.
The moment this golden-red Monster Core was exposed to the air, a wild and violent energy uncontrollably rose from it. A scarlet blood mist spread out like a cloud of smoke, condensing into a blurry Magical Beast in the air in front of the old man.
"Roar!"
A low beastly roar was emitted from the blood mist. Even though everyone present knew that the Magical Beast's body was already dead, the hearts of most people could not help but tremble when they heard this beast roar. Soon after, a feeling of horror involuntarily rose in everyone's hearts.
Currently, what appeared before them was merely the Monster Core of this Magical Beast. It did not have any intelligence, and was at most a rock that contained a wild and violent energy. Even so, this Monster Core was still able to release such a domineering power. It was difficult to imagine just how terrifying this Magical Beast was when it was alive!
"Evil beast, your body is already dead. You are merely a thread of remnant aura, yet you actually dare to be rampant here. Break!"
The appearance of this scene did not cause much of a fluctuation to appear on the old man's face. It was as though all of this was within his expectations. Seeing the blood mist agglomerate, the old man waved his sleeves. Powerful Dou Qi immediately surged out, wrapping around this cluster of blood mist from all directions.
Soon after, the old man twisted his wrist after this cluster of blood mist was wrapped by the Dou Qi. His five fingers suddenly clenched tightly, and the cluster of blood mist that was wrapped by the Dou Qi exploded with a bang, gradually scattering in the empty air.
When everyone on the stage saw this scene, the expressions on their faces changed one after another. When they looked at the old man on the stone platform, shock involuntarily surged into their eyes. That Magical Beast was already extremely powerful. However, from the looks of it, this old man seemed to be even more terrifying!
"Everyone, you have also seen that although this evil beast is already dead, it still has the ability to retaliate. This is all because this beast's strength had already reached the level of a human five star Dou Di when it was alive!"
"Hua!"
Everyone present was immediately shocked when the words from the old man's mouth sounded. Although they had thought that this Magical Beast's strength was extraordinary when it was alive, they were at the very most certain that it was a Dou Di class Magical Beast. However, they did not expect that this fellow's strength had actually reached the level of a five star Dou Di!
Xiao Yan, who was seated lazily in the viewing gallery, suddenly raised his eyes at this moment. His gaze instantly landed on the completely round fist-sized scarlet Monster Core. His eyes similarly revealed a surprised expression. It was unexpected that this Monster Core was actually the Monster Core of a five star Dou Di.
On the other two sides, the people from the Bai clan and the Huo clan were similarly staring at the Monster Core with heated gazes at this moment. Although they already had an answer in their hearts, their hearts still involuntarily became even more excited and surprised when they heard this old man personally say it.
Xiao Yan was naturally observing the situation of these two clans at all times. Immediately, Xiao Yan's heart gained some understanding of the general purpose of these two clans' trip.
He did not dare to say everything, but at the very least, this Monster Core of a five star Dou Di class Magical Beast was definitely within their plans for this trip.
"Huh?"
Bai Ying, who was originally staring at the Monster Core with an excited expression, suddenly frowned. His gaze suddenly turned and swept over the viewing gallery. Just a moment ago, it was that gaze again. He had once again sensed that aura.
"Just who is he?"
Bai Ying was quietly shocked in his heart. He inhaled a deep breath of air and was just about to withdraw his gaze when the expression in his eyes became slightly stern. He once again raised his eyes and looked over. On the opposite side, Huo Ting from the Huo clan was staring at him with widened eyes. Just a moment ago, he had also sensed an unusual aura. Without any hesitation, he believed that the origin of the aura was the Bai clan.
The two of them looked at each other from a distance. They were separated by an auction ground, but they quickly frowned at the same time. This was because they had also sensed that the mysterious aura did not originate from the other party.
