Under the expectant gazes of the crowd, the nineteenth treasure was brought up to the stage by the female cultivator. When the red cloth was lifted, the crowd fell silent as they stared at the treasure on the jade plate.
Above the jade plate, there was a circular sealing barrier. A ball of golden flame was hovering in the air. As the flame moved, it released a faint energy.
"The soul fire of a Golden Immortal expert!"
Finally, someone spoke, revealing the origin of the item. However, there wasn't much excitement or desire in his voice.
"The golden color of this soul fire is quite intense. It's obvious that it didn't just advance to the Golden Immortal Realm. It must contain a lot of soul energy. As long as I refine it, my cultivation base will definitely increase by a few realms. However …"
"Although the soul fire of a Golden Immortal expert is precious and tempting, if there's any mistake during the refining process, won't I lose my life?"
"You have to be careful when bidding."
Many people were worried and fearful. They didn't dare to make a rash decision on whether to participate in the auction or not. After all, many people's cultivation was relatively low. If they suffered a backlash during the refining process, it would be dangerous.
"This is the soul fire of a Fourth Grade Golden Immortal. I don't know how he was killed. After a few rounds of circulation, the soul fire ended up in our branch."
"The starting bid for this Golden Immortal's soul fire is 50,000 high-grade yellow-grade Celestial Soul Stones.
This time, after Branch President Ai Zheng made the announcement, there was a rare moment of silence in the auction hall. After a few breaths, someone started to bid.
"Fifty-five hundred high-grade yellow-grade Celestial Soul Stones."
This person's bid wasn't high. It was the lowest bid. One could see that this person was still hesitating.
"60,000 high-grade yellow-grade Celestial Soul Stones."
"70,000 high-grade yellow-grade Celestial Soul Stones."
…
Following that, quite a number of people also participated in the bidding. Although they did not raise the price by much, at least there was no awkward silence.
"200,000 high-grade yellow-grade Celestial Soul Stones."
Just as the price was rising steadily, a voice rang out. The person who raised the price by 50,000 immediately attracted everyone's attention. When they saw the person who made the bid, they retracted their shock.
"It's the Duanmu Family again!"
"Before this, the Duanmu Clan had already bought several treasures. And now, they want to buy even the Soulflame of this Gold Immortal. They are truly wealthy."
"Could it be that the Duanmu Clan obtained the Immortal Spirit Stone mine? How did you become so rich all of a sudden? "
"That brat Duanmu Chen is bidding for a Golden Immortal's soulfire. Isn't he afraid of danger during the refinement process?"
Many people began to discuss this. They were very moved by the fact that the Duanmu Clan had won one treasure after another, and suspected that the Duanmu Clan had obtained a Celestial Soul Stone mine.
"With Duanmu Chen's cultivation, there's no way he can refine a golden immortal's soulfire unless Duanmu Zhao helps him. However, I feel that he didn't bid for the golden immortal's soulfire to refine it himself."
"If my guess is correct, the reason why Duanmu Chen bid for the golden immortal's soulfire should be for Duanmu Bo to refine it. Although I don't know what stage Duanmu Bo's cultivation has recovered, once he refines the golden immortal's soulfire, his cultivation will definitely improve a lot."
"In addition, Duanmu Chen bid for several treasures before, which should be for Duanmu Bo. It seems that this time, Duanmu Bo intends to use the auction as an opportunity to recover his cultivation."
Luo Ping made a guess in his heart, and his face turned solemn.
Duanmu Bo had been crippled by his master, Hao Xinghe. Now that Duanmu Bo was able to cultivate again, once his cultivation recovered or even improved, he would definitely seek revenge on Hao Xinghe.
However, this matter had started because of him, and he absolutely did not want his master to be hurt. Although he did not know what stage Duanmu Bo's cultivation had recovered, the cultivation method of the Joyous Union Valley was quite special. As long as one continued to absorb the essence, one's cultivation could rapidly improve.
Although there were hidden dangers in this cultivation method, before the hidden dangers appeared, it was difficult for countless cultivators to reach.
Before this, the Duanmu Family had already bid for many treasures, and most of them were used to improve one's cultivation. This made Luo Ping even more certain that these treasures were prepared for Duanmu Bo.
If after the auction ends, Duanmu Bo uses these treasures to successfully restore his cultivation, and even improve his cultivation, you will definitely become a hidden danger, and Luo Ping absolutely does not want this to happen.
"Three hundred thousand high-grade yellow-grade immortal spirit stones."
Luo Ping did not hesitate to bid, directly increasing the price by one hundred thousand.
Luo Ping's words immediately attracted the attention of the crowd. Some of the cultivators who knew about the grudge between Luo Ping and the Duanmu Family revealed a look of anticipation. Those who did not know about the situation were very surprised.
In the Exquisite Divine Sect's group, Hao Xinghe looked at Luo Ping's position and smiled helplessly. He had already guessed the purpose of Luo Ping's actions, but there was nothing he could do to stop it.
"Luo Ping!"
"You're courting death!"
Duanmu Chen glared at Luo Ping, his face filled with anger. He then shifted his gaze to Duanmu Zhao.
"Father, after this auction is over, you must kill this brat and avenge Brother Jiu."
Duanmu Chen's voice was filled with endless killing intent.
"This brat's luck is too strong. When he killed your Ninth Brother, your Ninth Brother's master and I wanted to kill him, but we were stopped by the Southern Court and the Kong Family's Elder Kong Kuang."
"After that, this brat directly returned to the Exquisite Divine Sect to cultivate in seclusion. Until I participated in the battle for the city, I did not have the chance to kill him."
"This time, I will definitely not let him go. After the auction ends, I will definitely kill him and avenge your Ninth Brother."
Duanmu Zhao said in a firm tone.
"Alright, let's hurry up and bid. We must get this Golden Immortal soul fire. As long as we can get enough treasures in this auction, your Second Uncle's cultivation will definitely recover, or even improve."
Duanmu Zhao continued.
"Alright."
After Duanmu Chen agreed, he continued to bid.
"Four hundred thousand high-grade yellow-grade Immortal Soul Stones."
Duanmu Chen said.
"Five hundred thousand high-grade yellow-grade Immortal Soul Stones."
Luo Ping said without hesitation.
… …
Following that, the two of them took turns to bid, and neither of them had any intention of giving up. This greatly increased the interest of many people, and they were waiting to see a good show.
"Hmph, my purpose of participating in this auction is to spend a large amount of Immortal Soul Stones to obtain the qualifications to enter the Dragon Gate Chamber of Commerce headquarters. If the Duanmu Family wants to compete with their financial strength, then let's do it."
"I also want to see how deep the foundation of the second most powerful family in Nangong City is."
Luo Ping thought in his heart, and then he bid again.
"Two million high-grade yellow-grade Immortal Soul Stones."
After a round of bidding, the current price had reached forty times the starting price.
This time, the Duanmu Family did not bid. After Branch President Ai Zheng asked three times, Luo Ping successfully won the Golden Immortal soul fire.
The Duanmu Family's strange action caused many people to speculate. Some people seemed to have guessed the reason, and they all looked at Luo Ping with sympathy.
"Luo Ping, I'll let you be proud for a while. After the auction is over, all the treasures you've won will belong to us. As for you, you'll be buried with my ninth brother."
Duanmu Chen coldly thought as he watched Luo Ping take out the Immortal Soul Stones and hand them to the female cultivator. His eyes revealed an intense killing intent.
After Luo Ping received the Golden Immortal soul fire, he met Duanmu Chen's gaze. He only smiled and ignored the other party.
"Want to snatch my treasures after the auction? Let's see if you have the ability."
Luo Ping naturally guessed Duanmu Chen's thoughts, but he was not worried at all. The grudge between him and the Duanmu Family would be settled sooner or later.
"Next, it's the twentieth auction item."
Following Branch President Ai Zheng's voice, a female cultivator walked up to the high platform. When the red cloth on the jade plate was lifted, the treasures were revealed. Basically, everyone present was excited.
"Soul Nurturing Grass!"
"The three stalks of Soul Nurturing Grass have turned golden. Obviously, they are Earth grade Soul Nurturing Grass. This is a rare treasure."
"Three stalks of Earth grade Soul Nurturing Grass, this is too unbelievable. I must get it."
"I must get it."
Many people's tone was firm. They were determined to get the treasures on the jade plate.
There were three stalks of Earth grade Soul Nurturing Grass on the jade plate. They were golden in color and emitted a faint brilliance.
The heavenly treasures of the Immortal Realm were divided into four grades according to their value and rarity. These three stalks of Soul Nurturing Grass were Earth grade, which was already very high in grade.
Luo Ping looked at the three stalks of Soul Nurturing Grass on the jade plate. He did not hide the blazing light in his eyes. He was going to get it at all costs.
"Everyone, I'm sure everyone knows the use and value of these three stalks of Earth grade Soul Nurturing Grass. I don't need to say more."
"As usual, the three stalks of Earth grade Soul Nurturing Grass will be sold together. The starting price is three hundred thousand high-grade yellow-grade Immortal Soul Stones. The auction starts now."
Branch President Ai Zheng directly announced the starting price and the auction started.
There was no need for him to explain the use of the Soul Nurturing Grass. Basically, all the cultivators knew about it. After all, it was the best treasure to nourish one's soul fire and strengthen and restore one's soul power.
Whether it was used for cultivation or to restore one's soul power, the Soul Nurturing Grass had no side effects. It did not need to be refined and could be directly absorbed. Moreover, the soul power in the grass was exceptionally dense. Even the lowest grade yellow-grade Soul Nurturing Grass was enough to restore a Profound Immortal expert's soul power in an instant.
The Earth grade Soul Nurturing Grass in front of them was extremely helpful to Peerless Immortal experts, not to mention the cultivators present. Most of them were Profound Immortals and Golden Immortals. Of course, there were also quite a few False Immortals.
"One million high-grade yellow-grade Immortal Soul Stones."
As soon as the auction started, a cultivator directly announced a high price. It was obvious that he desired the three stalks of Earth grade Soul Nurturing Grass.
