"1,200!"
"1,500!"
"1,500!"
“”
Although the Heavenly Flame Jade Chalcedony's usage was a little uncommon, it was still a rare treasure. Therefore, there weren't a few people that had their eyes on it. In less than a minute, the price had been raised to roughly 1,700 drops of Sovereign Spiritual Liquid.
Lin Jing sat on the chair in depression as she supported her cheeks with her hand. She clenched her teeth as she looked at those fellows that were intensely bidding and resentfully said, "If I wasn't in such a rush to leave home, I would have smashed all of you to death with Sovereign Spiritual Liquid!"
Mu Chen rubbed the armrest of the jade chair as he looked around. He realised that those that were interested in the Heavenly Flame Jade Chalcedony didn't seem to be from any major forces. This could be seen from the way they raised the price. Those rich and overbearing people wouldn't play around with such a small amount of money.
This made Mu Chen feel slightly relieved.
The bidding continued for a few minutes, before the price finally stopped at 2,300 drops of Sovereign Spiritual Liquid.
The white-robed old man looked at the end of the bidding and waited for a brief moment before he raised his hand to announce the result. At this moment, the white-clothed girl had already turned her head over in anger.
"2,500." Mu Chen finally spoke out with a light smile.
Some gazes were directed over with astonishment in their eyes. Lin Jing was stunned as she turned her head over in astonishment and stared at Mu Chen. Thereafter, she bit her rosy lips as she muttered something.
When the man that raised the price to 2,300 drops of Sovereign Spiritual Liquid saw this, he knitted his brows and hesitated for a brief moment.
In the end, he did not make another bid as this price was already the limit of what he could bear.
When the white-robed old man saw this, he waved his hand.
A bell rang out in the auction house, signifying that the Heavenly Flame Jade Chalcedony had been successfully bought.
The auction continued.
The eyes of the girl in white were rolling back and forth, but at this moment, her cheeks were a little bashful, and her little hand was twisting the folding fan in her hand back and forth.
She did not ask why Mu Chen would buy the Heavenly Flame Jade Chalcedony, since she didn't want to think too highly of herself.
Wouldn't that be a complete loss of face?
Mu Chen waited for a while with a playful attitude. Seeing that she was actually able to endure it, he couldn't help but smile and said, "I did buy it for you."
Lin Jing's face blushed as she replied, "Thanks! I'm also cultivating my Sovereign Celestial Body, and I need a lot of similar Chalcedony!"
When Jiu You heard this, she took another look at Lin Jing. A strange light flashed in the depths of her beautiful eyes. She had clearly grasped the young girl's words.
There were many similar chalcedonies.
Although some Sovereign Celestial Bodies required the Heavenly Flame Jade Chalcedony, there weren't many Sovereign Celestial Bodies that required many chalcedonies. For example, the Heavenly Jade Celestial Body that was ranked 63rd in the 99 Rankings of Sovereign Celestial Bodies.
This Sovereign Celestial Body required various attributes of chalcedony as a material, and the Heavenly Flame Jade Chalcedony was one of them.
If Lin Jing was really making preparations for her to cultivate the Heavenly Jade Celestial Body, then her background would probably be a little shocking. That's because a Sovereign Celestial Body of such a ranking would be extremely attractive to even Seventh or Eighth Grade Sovereign experts.
Furthermore.
Although the Heavenly Jade Celestial Body couldn't be compared to the top ranked Sovereign Celestial Bodies, it was perfect for someone who had just stepped into the Sovereign Realm.
That's because if the Sovereign Celestial Body was too powerful, it would definitely be hard to control.
Therefore, her family had clearly considered it before allowing her to cultivate the Heavenly Jade Celestial Body.
Mu Chen did not think as much as Jiu You. After all, he wasn't too familiar with the Sovereign Celestial Body. Immediately, he asked in astonishment, "Your family didn't prepare the materials for you?"
The girl before him should have a pretty strong background. Although the Heavenly Flame Jade Chalcedony was rare, it shouldn't be to the extent of making things so difficult for her.
"I want to rely on myself. How boring would it be for them to prepare everything for me?" Lin Jing supported her cheeks as she swung her slender legs.
Mu Chen helplessly shook his head.
"Right, I've already said that I won't casually owe favours."
Lin Jing seemed to have thought of something as she suddenly retrieved a jade pendant that was tied with a red string from her slender and fair neck.
The jade pendant was white in colour, as if there was liquid flowing within it. It looked extremely simple and unadorned, but vaguely, there seemed to be an indescribable fluctuation being emitted from it.
"This is a Protective Spiritual Jade. It will automatically activate when you're in danger. As long as the opponent's strength doesn't exceed the Fifth Grade Sovereign Realm, it will be able to block a fatal attack for you."
Mu Chen and Jiu You were stunned. Shortly after, the former's countenance slightly changed. To be able to defend against the fatal attack of a Fifth Grade Sovereign, this seemingly simple and unadorned jade pendant was actually so powerful?
"Forget it, this should be something that your family prepared for you. I won't snatch what others like."
Mu Chen shook his head in the end as he smiled. "Furthermore, the value of this Protective Spiritual Jade is probably even higher than the Heavenly Flame Jade Chalcedony."
"No way, if you don't want it, then I don't want the Heavenly Flame Jade Chalcedony." However, Lin Jing was extremely stubborn as she seriously looked at Mu Chen. Clearly, she wasn't joking.
This girl also had her own principles.
"Furthermore, you don't have to worry about me. I still have more Protective Spiritual Jades with me. Otherwise, how would I dare to sneak out?"
Lin Jing slyly smiled as she raised her wrist towards Mu Chen. On her wrist, there was a small and unadorned jade pendant.
Mu Chen was completely speechless. In the end, he let out a faint sigh. It's truly good to be a child from a rich family. He was even able to wear such a precious Protective Spiritual Jade on his body. This caused him to be completely naked. If it wasn't for the "Spiritual Condensing Bowl", he probably wouldn't even have the capital to enter this place.
"Here." Lin Jing handed the Protective Spiritual Jade over to Mu Chen.
"So it turns out that I'm the one who has taken advantage of you."
Mu Chen bitterly smiled. He did not argue any further and extended his hand to receive the Protective Spiritual Jade. He sighed with complicated emotions.
"There's no need to sigh. Mu Chen, you're truly a good friend!"
Lin Jing chuckled as she gave a thumbs up to Mu Chen. Her finger was round and adorable like pearls.
Clearly, the fact that Mu Chen had bought the Heavenly Flame Jade Chalcedony for her made Lin Jing have a good impression of him. After all, not just anyone could spend over 2,000 Sovereign Spiritual Liquids to buy something that they couldn't use for such a short period of time.
Furthermore, with her intelligence, she could sense that Mu Chen wasn't someone that could disregard 2,000 Sovereign Spiritual Liquids. This was also the reason why it was so precious.
Although the girl was young, her knowledge had probably exceeded Mu Chen's imagination. She was intelligent and magnanimous, but she was also a gem in her heart. She wasn't really careless or simple-minded.
Mu Chen casually stored the Protective Spiritual Jade and did not speak to Lin Jing, who was getting more and more excited. He only raised his head and looked ahead. As they spoke, there were already three to four items that were successfully auctioned.
There were Divine Artifacts and Divine Arts among those treasures. Every single one of them wasn't ordinary. Thus, it caused a wave of competition, causing the atmosphere in the auction house to rise.
However, the Void Great Solar Fruit and Undying Divine Leaf that Mu Chen was looking forward to had yet to appear.
This caused him to frown because he understood that the price he would have to pay in order to obtain an auction item would be even higher as the auction progressed. Of course, the most crucial point was that the heavyweights in the various pavilions up ahead hadn't even made a move yet.
Due to him undoing a portion of the seal on the Spiritual Condensing Bowl, he had a total of 18,000 Sovereign Spiritual Liquids. It wasn't a small amount, but he still wasn't confident if he could obtain the two treasures.
Time slowly passed under Mu Chen's anxious wait. When the seventh item was successfully auctioned, Mu Chen's eyes abruptly lit up.
That's because he saw an extremely dazzling light appearing in the hands of the white-robed elder on the stage. That light was like a blazing sun, enveloping the entire auction house within it.
A strange ripple spread out.
The entire auction house was a little quiet as everyone stared at the blazing sun. In the depths of the light, they could see a fruit that was blazing with white flames, emitting endless light.
Mu Chen's gaze was blazing as he stared at the fruit. His body straightened up as excitement surged in his heart. He had finally found the Void Great Solar Fruit.
Just when Mu Chen was staring at the Void Great Solar Fruit, there was a commotion in the pavilions up ahead. Numerous gazes were directed over as they were clearly attracted by it.
"This is the Void Great Solar Fruit. I believe everyone has heard of it. If you can refine it, it will form into a Spiritual Sun in your Sovereign Sea. Under the illumination of the Spiritual Sun, the Spiritual Energy in your Sovereign Sea will be mixed with the sun's flames, causing the might of your Spiritual Energy to be even more powerful."
"I believe there's no need for this old man to explain how precious it is. The auction price of this Void Great Solar Fruit is 7,000 Sovereign Spiritual Liquids!"
When Mo Qing's words rang out, it instantly caused countless commotion. The high price must have caused many people to shrink back, but they couldn't help having covetous gazes. After all, there weren't many treasures that could strengthen the might of Spiritual Energy.
"7,000 Sovereign Spiritual Liquids."
When Mu Chen heard the price, his heart slightly sunk. This was only the starting price. If he wanted to obtain it, there would definitely be an intense competition. At that time, he had no idea how high the price would be.
Huff.
Mu Chen took a deep breath as his gaze turned sharp. No matter what, he wouldn't give up so easily.
If he missed this opportunity, who knew how long it would take for Mu Chen to cultivate the Great Solar Undying Body.
