Although it looked like it had been dead for a long time, the beauty emitted from its body made people ignore everything else.
What made Chu Xingyun the most reluctant was that once this dragon corpse fell into the hands of others, it would definitely be skinned and stripped of its bones. The entire dragon corpse would be completely dismembered into various materials.
When he thought about how such a perfect, beautiful, and heavenly masterpiece of a silver dragon was about to be dismembered into countless pieces, Chu Xingyun could not bear it.
The dragon skin could be refined into soft armor, the dragon tendons could be refined into battle bows, the dragon bones could be refined into treasured swords, and the dragon meat could be casually discarded. Even the dragon horn could be polished into a dagger.
Taking a deep breath, Chu Xingyun planned to look at the price. If the price was suitable, he would buy it. But if the price was too high, then he could only forget about it.
At this moment, the auction had already reached the sixth round. Therefore … the price of all the treasures started at 10,000 Spirit Bones.
Gently placing his hand on the stone tablet in front of the showcase, Chu Xingyun closed his eyes and began to read.
From the appraisal results given by the Treasure Gathering Pavilion … this was a young white dragon. Its value was not too high. After all … the skin, bones, and dragon horns of a young dragon were not very strong. It was very difficult to refine high grade weapons and armor.
However, if one was lucky enough, there might be a drop or a few drops of dragon blood in this dragon corpse.
It could be said that this was a gamble. If there was dragon blood, then it would be a profit. The more dragon blood there was, the more profit he would make.
However, if the dragon corpse was completely dried up and there was not a single drop of dragon blood, then it was basically a loss.
Looking at the price, it had already reached 13,000 Spirit Bones. At this moment, the price was still within the range that Chu Xingyun could afford.
Standing in front of the showcase, Chu Xingyun pondered for a long time. Finally … Chu Xingyun made a decision.
Pressing his hand on the stone tablet, Chu Xingyun directly bid 18,000 Spirit Bones, directly increasing the price by 3,000!
That's right, Chu Xingyun was also learning from the fat white pig demon. He wanted to bid a high price to scare off all the other competitors.
After entering the price, Chu Xingyun did not continue. After all … now, after deducting the 12,000 Spirit Bones used to buy the poisonous ancient tablet, he only had 18,000 Spirit Bones left.
In other words, if anyone increased the price, even if it was just one Spirit Bone, Chu Xingyun would not be able to match it.
At this moment, the sixth round of auctions had just begun. Therefore … the price of 18,000 Spirit Bones, 99%, it would be surpassed. The reason why Chu Xingyun bid was just to show of his sincerity.
Of course, it would be great if he could get a photo of it, but if he couldn't, Chu Xingyun would have a clear conscience.
After Xingyun, Xyun, Chu Xyun, Xyun, and Xyun, Xyun, Xyun.................
Dang dang …
With a clear sound, the sixth round of auctions ended. Originally … Chu Xingyun was prepared to lose the bid.
However, out of Chu Xingyun's expectations, a white shadow flashed and a crystal coffin containing a dragon corpse floated in front of him.
Looking at the magnificent crystal coffin in shock, Chu Xingyun was stunned. He actually won the bid!
He looked around in confusion. No matter what, this was a dragon. Why was there no one bidding?
Although he was full of doubts, Chu Xingyun still waved his hand and kept the crystal coffin in his dimensional space.
At this point, Chu Xingyun still had some gold on him, about a storehouse's worth. However, he did not have a single Spirit Bone.
Very quickly, the seventh round of auctions began and ended very quickly.
Although he did not have any money in his pocket, Chu Xingyun still walked a few rounds. Even if he did not buy anything, he could gain some knowledge.
Finally, when the auction reached the eighth round, Chu Xingyun's Dao Comprehension Tea was put on the stage. The starting price was 30,000 Spirit Bones!
Very quickly, the green bamboo tube containing the Dao Comprehension Tea attracted everyone's attention.
Those who could come here had to be at least at the Emperor's level. Therefore, everyone's eyesight was not to be doubted.
With just a glance, everyone could be sure that the bamboo tube was definitely the most ordinary bamboo tube. It had no value at all.
As such, the only thing that was valuable was the contents of the bamboo tube.
In an instant, thousands of Divine Senses were cast into the stone tablet in front of the display case. Among them, Chu Xingyun's Divine Senses was included.
Under Chu Xingyun's anxious gaze, the price of 30,000 Spirit Bones did not change. After a long time, no one increased the price.
Could it be that the appraisal instructions were not written clearly?
Amidst his doubts, Chu Xingyun carefully read the appraisal instructions of the Dao Comprehension Tea. However, after carefully reading it three times, there was no problem at all. The instructions were already sufficiently detailed.
Standing there in a daze, Chu Xingyun could not accept this fact. Why was no one bidding? Could it be that … the cat demon had made a mistake in his judgment?
Time passed by minute by minute …
Chu Xingyun felt that time was passing very quickly. In the blink of an eye, it was already the end of the eighth round of auctions.
Ding ding dang dang …
Finally, when there were only ten breaths left, a crisp silver bell rang. This silver bell was telling everyone that there were only ten breaths left in this round of auctions.
As the silver bell rang, in an instant … the price that had been stuck at 30,000 Spirit Bones suddenly began to change violently.
In just ten breaths, the price of the Dao Comprehension Tea went from 30,000 Spirit Bones to nearly 50,000 Spirit Bones.
Seeing this scene, Chu Xingyun could not help but be enlightened.
Obviously, too many people had seen the value of the Dao Comprehension Tea, but they were very smart to hide it and only waited for the last ten seconds.
According to the rules of the Jubao Pavilion, in the last ten seconds, all those who bid would have the last chance to bid after this round of auctions.
The price had to exceed the price at the end of the auction. There was no limit to the price above.
All those who thought they were very smart were afraid that others would also know the value of the Dao Comprehension Tea. Therefore, they did not increase the price at the beginning. Even in the last ten breaths, they only increased the price by a small amount.
What everyone was fighting for was the final bid after the eighth round of the auction!
In the last ten breaths, all those who bid could give a final price. Among them … the highest bidder would get the tube of Dao Comprehension Tea.
In an instant, the atmosphere in the entire auction house was unprecedentedly tense.
At this point, within the last ten breaths, everyone who had made a bid would have one last chance to make a bid.
However, how high should the price be? This was really too difficult for many people.
Moreover, most importantly, all the thoughts about the Dao Comprehension Tea were still guesses and might not be realized.
Therefore, it was too risky to bid too high.
But if the price was too low, it was very likely that they would miss the opportunity to get the Dao Comprehension Tea.
If the Dao Comprehension Tea really could be realized as everyone thought, then it would be too much of a loss. They would definitely regret it until their intestines turned green.
The most exciting, most tangled, and most exciting part of the final price segment had finally begun …
After giving everyone a full hundred breaths of time, finally … a bell rang. This was the final deadline. If they did not bid, it would be counted as forfeiting.
