As soon as Ling Xiao's words fell, another voice immediately came out, "76,000 low-grade mysterious crystals."
This voice came from another box, and it was unknown who was bidding.
If he bought things at the auction, there would definitely be people bidding. Ling Xiao was already prepared. After all, he had looted the collections of the three royal families. He was very rich!
Could it be that he couldn't even buy a fifth-grade spirit herb?
"80,000 low-grade mysterious crystals," Ling Xiao called out slowly.
Then, "81,000 Low-grade Mysterious Crystals" was heard from another private room.
"82,000 low-grade mysterious crystals."
"83,000 low-grade mysterious crystals."
"90,000 low-grade mysterious crystals." Ling Xiao really didn't want to wait for others to increase the price bit by bit. It was really painful to listen to it, so he added 7,000 low-grade mysterious crystals at once.
Xuan Yao, who was at the side, was also surprised by Ling Xiao's bid. He just looked at Ling Xiao with a little doubt, but didn't ask anything.
After Ling Xiao called out the price, there was a short period of silence. The auctioneer called out, "90,000 low-grade mysterious crystals going once. Is there any higher grade?"
At this time, a faint voice came from box number six, "93,000 low-grade mysterious crystals."
In box number six sat a dignified and gorgeous Taoist nun. Her expression was no longer as natural and rosy as when she was at the entrance of the auction. She didn't look very good, and her pale face made people feel pity for her.
This Taoist nun's name was Cai Xiayue, and others gave her the name "Cai Fairy."
However, although she had a fairy-like face, her heart was not as kind and gentle as a fairy's.
In private, everyone secretly called her "Blood Asura." She was a famous rogue cultivator in the Southern Wasteland. Her strength had reached the peak of the King Stage. Her methods were extremely strange and tough. Many men who had taken advantage of her were sent to hell.
She was temperamental. Sometimes, she could kill people three thousand miles away without the slightest bit of mercy. Sometimes, she couldn't even bear to kill an ant. No one knew when she would kill people, and no one knew when she would become a kind fairy.
Right now, her soul was injured and she urgently needed the Spirit-Nurturing Grass to heal her soul. Otherwise, if her injuries worsened, it would affect her cultivation level and even affect her future advancement.
"Ninety-five thousand Lower Grade Mysterious Crystals!" Ling Xiao casually increased the price.
At this moment, the announcement of "96,000 Low-grade Mysterious Crystals" came from Room 10.
Another box joined the bidding, "97,000 low-grade Mysterious Crystals."
The Taoist nun in Compartment Six increased the price by ninety-eight thousand low-grade mystic crystals.
…
After a while, the Spirit-Nourishing Grass was worth more than 110,000 Xuan Crystals.
During this period, Ling Xiao did not bid even once.
In the end, after Fairy Cai, who was in room 6, raised the price to 120,000, the other bidders didn't say anything else.
This price had already far exceeded the price of the Spirit-Nourishing Grass.
Seeing that the auctioneer was about to make the final decision, the Demon Emperor behind Ling Xiao anxiously stood up, "Master …"
Before he could finish, Ling Xiao said indifferently, "One hundred and fifty thousand low-grade Xuan Crystals."
Just as he finished speaking, the people in the hall went into an uproar.
This price far exceeded the value of the Spirit-Nourishing Grass.
"Who the hell is in Room 8? How could he be so awesome?"
"I think he has so many Xuan Crystals."
"That might not be the case. Maybe the Spirit-Nourishing Grass is of great use to him."
The auctioneer lowered his voice and shouted, "One hundred and fifty thousand low-grade Xuan Crystals, is there any higher bid?"
Fairy Cai, who was in Room 8, was so pressured by the price that she almost couldn't breathe.
She only had 130,000 low-grade Xuan Crystals on hand. Originally, she was determined to get it, but now, a Cheng Yaojin had appeared, which made her feel extremely uncomfortable.
If she didn't get the Spirit-Nourishing Grass today, then her situation would be terrible. After all, this kind of Spirit Grass was rare, and even in the Spirit Herbs Pavilion, she might not be able to find it.
"Damn it..." Who the hell is making things difficult for me?
Could it be those three barbarians?
It doesn't sound like it! "Fairy Cai gritted her teeth and said, her beautiful eyes emitting dense flames.
There were no accidents, and the Spirit-Nourishing Grass was auctioned off by Ling Xiao for one hundred and fifty thousand low-grade Xuan Crystals.
When the hammer was finally hammered down, the Demon Emperor couldn't help but become slightly excited.
To him, any Spirit Grass that could nourish and nourish the soul was extremely important. Even if he could devour other people's souls to recover his soul force, that kind of recovery method was mixed and impure, and was not as pure and perfect as absorbing Spirit Grass or pills. This was an important factor in whether or not he could return to his peak state.
To Ling Xiao, this Spirit-Nourishing Grass was equally important. Right now, he had completely comprehended the first stage of the Spirit Controlling Art, and if he wanted to reach the Perfection Realm, he could only rely on slowly cultivating and accumulating Spirit Liquid.
When all of his Knowledge Sea was liquified, he would reach the Perfection Realm.
However, if he only relied on cultivating and accumulating Spirit Liquid, it might take several years or even more than ten years.
How could Ling Xiao afford to wait that long? He had already tasted the thrill of fighting higher realms with his spiritual force, and at the same time, it was also the true weapon he relied on to kill his enemies. Naturally, he wanted his spiritual force to reach the Perfection Realm as soon as possible.
There was only one Spirit-Nourishing Grass, and there was also a Soul Grass in his Space Ring. These two Spirit Grasses could double his spiritual force.
Of course, he had also considered refining Spirit-Nourishing Pills for the Demon Emperor, but the premise was that the Demon Emperor had to show enough loyalty, otherwise, he would never allow the Demon Emperor to recover so quickly.
The Demon Emperor had devoured the remnant souls of the Heaven Suppressing Sect's Land of Inheritance, which had strengthened him to the point where he could devour the souls of Earth Sovereign Realm masters. If he waited for the Demon Emperor to recover further, he might even be able to devour the souls of Heavenly Venerables. At that time, Ling Xiao wasn't confident that he could still control the Demon Emperor.
The auction continued.
The following items were all Level Four and Level Five Xuan Artifacts, as well as various Green and Blue Ranked Xuan Skills.
Ling Xiao had already obtained enough Xuan Artifacts and Xuan Skills from the Heaven Suppressing Sect in the Secret Realm, so he didn't participate in the bidding.
However, his absence did not affect the excitement of the auction. Many families, rogue cultivators, and mercenaries all needed these Xuan Artifacts or Xuan Skills.
Those who could enter the auction were all servants with considerable wealth. Otherwise, what was the point of coming here to join in the fun?
Very quickly, half a day had passed, and the auction was nearing its end. However, it was also time for the auction's climax.
The auctioneer drank a mouthful of sweet spring water to moisten his throat and said, "Next, we will enter the final stage of this auction, which is also this month's heavy launch of the best of the best. There are only five items left, so everyone must not miss this opportunity."
Following that, he clapped his hands, and two Profound Realm maids carried a wooden chest out with both hands.
Everyone in the hall couldn't help but stand up, wanting to see what was inside the wooden chest.
"I believe everyone is already impatient. I will announce that the first item is the Heavenly Lightning Beast …" The auctioneer said.
However, before the auctioneer finished speaking, someone excitedly exclaimed, "This … How could it be the Heavenly Lightning Beast?"
"That's right, how could such a small chest contain the Heavenly Lightning Beast? Furthermore, there's no sign of life at all."
"It could be that the young Heavenly Lightning Beast was sealed."
"It can't be the corpse of the Heavenly Lightning Beast, right?"
… …
Everyone continuously guessed.
"Everyone, stop guessing. This is a Heavenly Lightning Beast egg!"
The auctioneer slightly smiled, then opened the wooden chest's lid, and a half meter large beast egg appeared in front of them.
This half meter large beast egg was emitting traces of purple lightning, and there were already some cracks on the egg's body. It seemed to be a very mature beast egg.
"Heavens!
This … This really is a Heavenly Lightning Beast egg. It looks like it will definitely break out of the shell in less than three days. "
"That's right, who is so powerful that they can even get a rank 6 Heavenly Lightning Beast egg? This is too heaven-defying."
"I wonder what the auction price is. No matter how big it is, it's worth auctioning. In the future, if we nurture it, it can definitely grow into a rank 6 high-grade spirit beast."
"Hurry up and tell me the starting price, this beast egg is mine."
"Who does your Lan family think you are? This beast egg is ours."
… ….
The auction price had not yet been announced, but the hall had already begun to quarrel.
Xuan Yao, who was in the eighth box, said, "If a thunder-attribute martial artist obtains this egg, it will be like adding wings to a tiger."
Ling Xiao nodded in agreement, "That's right. However, although it is a high-grade spirit beast, it will take at least a hundred years for it to mature."
In the hall, the auctioneer finally revealed the starting price of 250,000. This price was currently the highest starting price of all the items in the auction.
As soon as the price was announced, many of the people who were clamoring for it had already become weak.
250,000 low-grade profound crystals, this was not something that just anyone could take out.
However, there were still a lot of people who could participate in this kind of auction.
A middle-aged man in the front row of the hall was the first to bid, "250,000 low-grade profound crystals!"
Following that, others also participated in the auction.
Some of the smaller families also gritted their teeth and joined in.
The Heavenly Lightning Beast was a high-grade attack type spirit beast that could advance to rank 6 or even rank 7. If they could raise such a high-grade spirit beast, it would be enough for any small family to squeeze into the ranks of the big families.
In less than a quarter of an hour, the price had already risen to 300,000 low-grade profound crystals.
At this time, a loud and arrogant voice came from the third box, "My Wei family bids 320,000 low-grade profound crystals."
In the third box were the two brothers, Wei Bufan and Wei Weihu, from the second family of Nantian City.
The one who had just bid was Wei Weihu, and it seemed that he was determined to win. Otherwise, he would not have brought it out of his house.
"Third brother, let's keep a low profile," Wei Bufan said to Wei Weihu.
Wei Weihu smiled, "Big brother, didn't I buy it for you and give it to Miss Dong?"
"Mm, thank you," Wei Bufan replied with a faint smile.
Although the Wei family had brought it out of their house, there were still many young powers who did not fear the Wei family.
From the seventh box, a bidding voice came out, "330,000 low-grade profound crystals."
In the tenth box, someone also called out, "340,000 low-grade profound crystals."
Right now, the people who participated in the bidding were all from the big powers in the boxes. In the hall, there was only one person whose entire body was covered by a cloak, and his face could not be seen, who was participating in the bidding.
Very quickly, the price of the Heavenly Lightning Beast egg was raised to a high price of 500,000.
