In the current environment, with Luo Ping and the other two's cultivation, it was very daring for them to be able to treat their injuries so boldly. This also showed that Luo Ping and the other two's trust in the Chamber of Commerce's rules and strength. It was no wonder that the old man admired them.
"Hmph, treatment is one thing. If these three brats haven't finished their treatment by the time the auction starts, then they'll be disregarding the rules of the Chamber of Commerce. We can only expel them."
Another middle-aged woman in the Dragon Gate Chamber of Commerce team said coldly.
When the others heard this, someone was about to speak, but found that Luo Ping and the other two were releasing a powerful aura at the same time. Although it was nothing to many experts, everyone knew that Luo Ping and the other two had finished their treatment.
When Luo Ping and the other two opened their eyes, they found that many cultivators were looking at them. Even at the head of the dragon-shaped mountain, there was a team looking at them.
Luo Ping and the other two had already understood the situation of the auction from Uncle Gong. They immediately determined that this team was the experts of the Dragon Gate Chamber of Commerce. This made them realize that the auction was about to begin.
When Luo Ping and the other two saw this, they bowed to the team at the head of the mountain at the same time. They were afraid that their behavior just now would upset the higher-ups of the Dragon Gate Chamber of Commerce.
After seeing Luo Ping and the other two bowing, the higher-ups of the Dragon Gate Chamber of Commerce did not make any response. They directly looked away and looked at the cultivators in front of them.
"Welcome to the auction of our Chamber of Commerce. I am the Vice President of the Chamber of Commerce, 'Tu Xi'. I am also the host of this auction."
"For this auction, our Chamber of Commerce has prepared a large number of precious treasures and rare immortal items. I guarantee that you won't be disappointed."
"Without further ado, the auction starts now!"
The leader of the upper echelons of the Dragon Gate Chamber of Commerce said.
As he spoke, the other higher-ups flew to the edge of the mountain peak and were in charge of maintaining order in the auction. Of course, they were only overseers on the surface. In reality, there were many elders and other protective measures in the dark to ensure the safety of the auction.
After Vice-Chairman Tu Xi finished speaking, a ray of light flew out of the mouth of the dragon-shaped mountain and landed in front of him.
When the light dissipated, a round stone emitting a red glow was seen floating in front of Vice President Tu Xi, attracting everyone's attention.
"Heavenly Demonic Stone!"
Luo Ping instantly recognized the stone and was shocked.
He had seen the Heavenly Demonic Stone when he was in the Demons sect space, but he didn't know the origin of the Heavenly Demonic Stone at that time, so he was full of doubts.
After entering the Immortal Domain, he inadvertently found out the origin of the Heavenly Demonic Stone. He was very surprised that the Demons sect space had a Heavenly Demonic Stone.
"The Heavenly Demonic Stone was formed after the death of the Heavenly Demonic Monarch of the Demon Domain. After countless years of precipitation, the Heavenly Demonic Stone gradually condensed and evolved. It can be said to be extremely precious."
"Every Heavenly Demonic Stone contains extremely rich Demonic Soul Qi, and it can release the Heavenly Demonic Light, allowing the fated people in the Demons sect to possess the Heavenly Demonic Body under the infusion of the Demonic Light."
"The number of Heavenly Demonic Monarchs is already very small, and those who have a complete body after death are even fewer. The chances of successfully evolving into a Heavenly Demonic Stone are even rarer. No wonder the Heavenly Demonic Stone is so precious."
"The Heavenly Demonic Stone in front of us is much larger than the one in the Demons sect space. The auction price will definitely not be low."
Luo Ping recalled the process of the formation of the Heavenly Demonic Stone and could not help but sigh at the preciousness of the Heavenly Demonic Stone. At the same time, he judged that the Heavenly Demonic Stone in front of him must be very valuable.
Feng Yiming had also seen the Heavenly Demonic Stone before, and at this moment, he was also very surprised. On the entire dragon-shaped mountain peak, all the immortal cultivators who knew the Heavenly Demonic Stone had the same expression.
"This is the Heavenly Demonic Stone. I believe everyone has seen or heard of it before. The Heavenly Demonic Stone evolved from the physical body of the Heavenly Demonic Monarch. It can release the Heavenly Demonic Light and has extremely rich Demonic Soul Qi."
"The Heavenly Demonic Stone in front of us was accidentally obtained by a member of our chamber of commerce. Although it is a cultivation treasure of the Demons sect, for us immortal cultivators, it can also be used to refine pills and refine weapons. Its value is immeasurable."
"The starting price of the Heavenly Demonic Stone in front of us is one thousand high-grade Profound Grade Celestial Soul Stones. The auction starts now."
After Vice President Tu Xi gave a brief introduction of the Heavenly Demonic Stone, he announced the starting price of the Heavenly Demonic Stone and selected the start of the auction.
Although the Heavenly Demonic Stone was very precious, it was not very useful to many immortal cultivators. Only immortal cultivators who cultivated evil techniques could absorb the Demonic Soul Qi in the Heavenly Demonic Stone to cultivate. Only Immortal Alchemists and Immortal Blacksmiths could use the Heavenly Demonic Stone to refine pills and refine weapons.
It was precisely because of the restrictions on the use of the Heavenly Demonic Stone that the starting price was not very high.
"Two thousand high-grade Profound Grade Celestial Soul Stones."
"Three thousand high-grade Profound Grade Celestial Soul Stones."
…
There were thousands of cultivators present. Naturally, some of them were cultivators who practiced cultivation methods such as the Baleful Yin Cultivation Method. There were also some Celestial Alchemists and Celestial Weapon Refiners present. Therefore, when Vice President Tu Qiong announced the start of the auction, these cultivators did not hesitate to bid.
These immortal cultivators were determined to obtain the Heavenly Demonic Stone, so they did not hesitate to bid, increasing the price by one thousand.
In a short period of time, the price of the Heavenly Demonic Stone had increased by dozens of times. Some immortal cultivators had already given up and were waiting to buy treasures that they needed more. Those who continued to bid were either those who needed the Heavenly Demonic Stone or those who were wealthy.
"Thirty-five thousand high-grade Profound Grade Celestial Soul Stones."
Luo Ping announced the starting price.
He had not bid until now. In any case, Uncle Gong had given him an unimaginable amount of Celestial Soul Stones. He would be a fool if he did not use them.
He had long been demonized, so he could cultivate the cultivation techniques of the Demons sect. Naturally, he could absorb the Demonic Soul Qi in the Heavenly Demonic Stone to cultivate. To him, the Heavenly Demonic Stone was a relatively important treasure.
"Thirty-six thousand high-grade Profound Grade Celestial Soul Stones."
A golden immortal looked in Luo Ping's direction and announced the price in a heavy tone.
Originally, there were only five immortal cultivators left. All of them were golden immortals and above, and two of them were peerless immortals. Even so, the golden immortal was full of confidence. Before the auction began, he had coincidentally entered the cultivation cave of a peerless immortal from several million years ago. He had obtained a large number of Celestial Soul Stones from there. Therefore, he was very confident.
But now, a profound immortal cultivator had appeared out of nowhere and wanted to participate in the auction. This naturally infuriated the golden immortal, and he immediately developed a strong hostility toward Luo Ping.
He was not the only one. The remaining bidders also looked in Luo Ping's direction, their eyes brimming with anger.
Luo Ping didn't care about the crowd's attitude. In fact, this was a deliberate move. He'd already offended Uncle Gong and Murong Xun. No matter what, these two wouldn't let him go.
Since that was the case, he might as well throw caution to the wind and adopt the method of fighting to survive. He'd make more enemies, and when the auction was over, these people would definitely attack him.
The more people there were, the more chaotic the scene would become. These cultivators were all proud and arrogant. They would never speak out or listen to explanations. When the time came, they would inevitably fight each other.
In this way, Luo Ping and the others still had a chance to escape. Although the chances were slim, Luo Ping had no choice but to try and gamble on it.
Including Luo Ping, there were still six cultivators participating in the auction. As the price continued to rise, another three gave up, leaving only Luo Ping, a peerless immortal, and a golden immortal who'd obtained a large number of Celestial Soul Stones by chance.
"Fifty thousand high rank Celestial Soul Stones."
The fair-skinned golden immortal in embroidered robes grit his teeth and called out the price. His gaze toward Luo Ping was full of enmity and animosity.
Although he'd obtained a large number of Celestial Soul Stones, there were still many more treasures to be had. It pained him to waste so many stones for nothing.
In his opinion, if Luo Ping hadn't joined in midway, the bidding process wouldn't have lasted so long, and the price wouldn't have risen so much. All of this was Luo Ping's doing.
"Fifty-one thousand high rank Celestial Soul Stones."
The peerless immortal looked at Luo Ping with an unfriendly expression and called out the price.
Like the fair-skinned golden immortal, he was also a cultivator who practiced evil methods. Celestial Demon Stones were very helpful to their cultivation, which was why they'd been able to hold on until now.
However, when he saw that the price had risen by fifty times, the peerless immortal was already on the verge of giving up. After all, this was just the beginning. Even if he had more stones, he'd have to save them for more precious treasures later.
Many of the cultivators present were peerless immortals with astounding wealth. The subsequent bidding was bound to be even more intense. Perhaps an extra fifty thousand high rank Celestial Soul Stones would allow him to offer even better treasures later on. Therefore, he didn't want to waste them.
"Fifty-two thousand high rank Celestial Soul Stones."
Luo Ping called out the price unhurriedly, paying no heed to the peerless immortal and golden immortal's gazes.
In any case, his original purpose of participating in the auction of the four major chambers of commerce was to purchase immortal pills of Tier 8 and above. Even if there were other treasures, he would not compete for them. After all, resurrecting Chen Xiuxiu was the most important thing.
Uncle Gong's coercion had forced the three of them to compete for Murong Xun's treasures in the auction. Although they'd received an unimaginable amount of Celestial Soul Stones, they'd also fallen into dire straits.
Right now, he needed to make a large number of enemies and fight for a chance at survival. Therefore, he didn't care about the enmity and hostility of other cultivators. In fact, this was exactly what he wanted to see.
