Chapter 684: Chapter 675: Who Exactly is This Person?

"What?!"

Hearing Mo Wangchen’s bid of twenty million Spirit Stones,

Bai Le, who had just sat back down, whooshed to his feet again.

"From fifteen million straight to twenty million Spirit Stones?!"

His face clouded over; his expression turned sour as one wouldn’t normally have the audacity to raise the bid by five million Spirit Stones in a single go, not even himself.

"Twenty million!"

Not just Bai Le, but everyone in the venue felt shocked by Mo Wangchen’s sudden offer.

"Who on earth is in Box No. 6?"

"To be able to put forth twenty million Spirit Stones, they must be someone with an impressive background—is it the Divine Son from Shangqing Palace?"

"Shangqing Palace is indeed the strongest amongst All Holy Lands. There are few that could compete with them. If this person really is a Divine Son from Shangqing Palace, they indeed might afford twenty million Spirit Stones!"

The crowd was abuzz with discussion; they became increasingly curious about Mo Wangchen’s identity.

"Twenty million Spirit Stones for the first time!"

"Twenty million Spirit Stones for the second time!"

Lin Xiaxue’s voice rang out; she held a small wooden gavel in her hand. Twenty million indeed accounted for a sky-high price.

Since the opening of Tianyuan Auction, there seemed to be just a few items that had fetched more than twenty million Spirit Stones.

"Twenty million for the thir—"

"Twenty-one million Spirit Stones!"

Just as Lin Xiaxue was about to complete her third call, a deep bid came from within Box No. 1, announced by Bai Le.

"Twenty-one million."

"Bai Le is also determined to win the drop of Qiongqi Essence Blood."

"Of course. If he could obtain this drop of Essence Blood, his chances of advancing to the Emperor Realm Great Mahayana would be promising, so how could he miss this opportunity?"

The chatter continued among the crowd; a sharp glint of interest flickered in their eyes as they watched on with anticipation for the unfolding competition.

"Twenty million is already a sky-high price, not any less than the value of the Essence Blood, I wonder if the person in Box No. 6 will continue to bid?"

"Considering he raised by five million all at once just now, I think it’s very likely he will continue. This person is not afraid of offending Bai Le and has shown extraordinary boldness. What could his identity be?"

"Twenty-two million five hundred thousand!"

While the crowd was buzzing with discussion, Mo Wangchen spoke up once more from within Box No. 6, raising the bid by another four million Spirit Stones.

"Hisss!"

There were many sharp intakes of breath throughout the venue; everyone was astoundingly impressed by Mo Wangchen’s seemingly limitless wealth.

"Twenty-five million!"

"Another direct increase of four million Spirit Stones!"

"Who the hell is he, being so extravagant with his bids? Does he think Spirit Stones are just ordinary pebbles?"

Surprise was evident in everyone; for a common Cultivator, a million Spirit Stones already represented a substantial sum.

Mo Wangchen’s moves involving millions were truly unsettling.

"Who exactly are you, Sir?"

Inside Box No. 1, Bai Le walked up to the window again, his brows furrowed, his gaze intently fixed in the direction of Box No. 6, wishing he possessed x-ray vision to see clearly who the person inside really was.

"Twenty-five million spirit stones, even for Bai Le, has nearly reached the limit."

In fact, the reason he had come to participate in this auction was because he had secretly received news about the Qiongqi essence blood. He originally thought that twenty million would be enough to win the auction for the essence blood.

He had never expected that, halfway through, a Mo Wangchen would emerge, competing with him and driving the price up to twenty-five million spirit stones.

Those who could afford this price must be someone extraordinary, so at this moment, Bai Le was extremely curious about Mo Wangchen’s identity.

Could it be a descendant of an Ancient King himself?

Wondering, was he really the Divine Son from Shangqing Palace as everyone was guessing?

"It shouldn’t be the Divine Son from Shangqing Palace..."

Bai Le frowned, he himself being a Divine Son, one of the outstanding figures of his generation, was naturally familiar with the Divine Son of Shangqing Palace, and had even shared a cup of murky wine with the man; he could not possibly fail to recognize the voice.

"What does it matter who I am, the important thing is I’ve bid twenty-five million spirit stones. If you want to continue, just name your price."

Mo Wangchen’s voice came through faintly, accompanied by the sound of light footsteps, causing everyone’s ears to perk up, their gazes turning towards the window of private room number six.

Visible was a young man in white, who walked to the front of the window, his aura ethereal, strikingly it was Mo Wangchen himself.

"So young."

"Who is this person, it seems nobody has seen him?"

The entire audience focused their attention, while the man was seen, it appeared that not a single person recognized him.

"Could you be a friend who has come from the East Immortal Domain?"

Likewise, Bai Le did not recognize Mo Wangchen. Though Central State was vast, he almost knew all the exceptional young geniuses, and at this moment he could be quite sure that he had not seen this white-robed man before.

Apart from Central State, the strongest of the other four domains was the East Immortal Domain, so he naturally assumed at first that Mo Wangchen was a genius from the East Immortal Domain.

After all, the Heavenly Gods had opened their academies, and the geniuses from various domains were already starting to trickle into Central State.

"Miss Lin, please continue."

Facing Bai Le’s question, Mo Wangchen simply shook his head indifferently, not saying a word. His gaze turned to Lin Xiaxue as he made this request.

"Twenty-five million for the first time."

"Twenty-five million for the seco..."

"Twenty-six million!"

Bai Le spoke again, gritting his teeth as he called out the price.

"Big brother, we only brought thirty million spirit stones with us on this trip."

Inside private room number one, sitting on the seat was a young woman who was now frowning as she spoke.

"I understand." Bai Le nodded.

His face was not looking good; the item which should have easily been his for twenty million was now being snatched away by someone else.

"This person is not a Divine Son from the Central State Sacred Land, nor does he carry the fierceness typical of someone from the Ancient Royal Family. Perhaps he really is someone from another domain, just like big brother," the woman spoke.

"What difference does it make where he comes from? Given his attitude, he clearly must obtain the essence blood at all costs, he likely has more spirit stones than us."

Bai Le was inwardly frustrated; the essence blood was too important to him, and having it taken away by someone else was truly displeasing.

Hearing his words, the woman opened her mouth with a light smile, "How could you say it doesn’t matter, big brother? He is not an Ancient King nor a Divine Son from the Central State Sacred Land. Since he comes from outside, he must have no backing here, we can wait until after the auction ends..."

Her words trailed off, but a cold gleam flashed in her eyes, the implication of her unfinished sentence was clear.

"Little sister, your words have enlightened me."

Bai Le narrowed his eyes with a cold smile forming on his lips.

Since Mo Wangchen was not from Central State, then in this vast Central State, all by himself, how could he compete with Bai Le and the Xiaotian Sect?
