Chapter 685: Chapter 676: The Sensation Caused by Divine Spring
Thinking so to himself,
Bai Le’s gaze once again turned towards the window of Suite 6 and coldly glanced at Mo Wangchen.
"Uh?"
Seeing the flash of cold light in Bai Le’s eyes, Mo Wangchen couldn’t help but frown.
He felt an inexplicable killing intent emanating from the other man.
However, Mo Wangchen quickly scoffed internally, deciding that if the other party didn’t provoke him, well and good, but if he did, it would be his own fault for seeking death.
Conflicts at the auction venue had obviously become commonplace.
Not only Mo Wangchen, at this moment, everyone present could vaguely feel the murderous intent radiating from Bai Le.
Was he planning to kill and rob Mo Wangchen after the auction ended?
"Xiaotian Sect..."
On the auction stage, Lin Xiaxue was also frowning, obviously worried for Mo Wangchen.
The other party was a guest of the Tianyuan Auction, and if he was intercepted after winning an item and leaving, it would reflect poorly on the Tianyuan Auction.
But according to the rules, once Mo Wangchen left the city, he would no longer be under the protection of the Tianyuan Auction, and even if Bai Le attacked him, Lin Xiaxue would be powerless.
After all, the Xiaotian Sect had considerable power in Central State, and the Lin Family dared not provoke them lightly.
Moreover, to provoke the Xiaotian Sect for Mo Wangchen’s sake, whether Lin Xiaxue was willing or not, the elders of the Lin Family would likely be unwilling.
Tianyuan Auction had a rule to protect its customers, but that was limited only within the bounds of Huashen City.
"Thirty million spirit stones!"
Mo Wangchen scoffed coldly, withdrawing his gaze from Bai Le and once again placing a bid.
"Four million more!"
A collective gasp of astonishment swept through the venue; people were clearly stunned by Mo Wangchen’s extravagant spending.
"It’s really like he doesn’t consider spirit stones as money at all, thirty million has already exceeded the value of the essence blood."
"Who exactly is this person, capable of offering thirty million spirit stones? He must be someone significant, but does not appear to be a Divine Son from any sacred land of Central State?"
"Nor from the Ancient Royal Family; maybe just like Bai Le guessed, this person comes from the East Immortal Domain..."
The crowd murmured, their focus entirely on Mo Wangchen, their curiosity about this unknown man in white growing.
"He actually bid straight up to thirty million!"
Inside Suite 1, Bai Le spoke in a deep voice, his expression uglier than ever, thirty million was already beyond what he could afford.
"Since you are courting death, you can’t blame me..."
Finally, Bai Le took a deep breath, glared at Mo Wangchen one last time, withdrew his gaze, and did not bid further.
Initially, if he could win the essence blood at this auction, that would have been fine, but since Mo Wangchen didn’t know better and forcibly bid for the essence blood, Bai Le could only intervene, resorting to murder and robbery.
Even if it damaged his reputation, the essence blood was too important; Bai Le had no choice but to take action!
"Thirty million spirit stones the first time!"
"Thirty million spirit stones the second time!"
"Thirty million spirit stones the third time!"
"Thud!"
A hammer stroke sealed the deal, and ultimately, this drop of Qiongqi essence blood found its new owner.
Shortly, under the gaze of everyone in the venue, a master from the Tianyuan Auction brought the jade bottle containing the essence blood to Mo Wangchen in Suite 6.
"Young Master Mo, my young lady has instructed that the thirty million Spirit Stones can be taken out after the auction ends."
"Alright," Mo Wangchen nodded, then carefully stored the Essence Blood.
"The item to be auctioned next was entrusted to our Tianyuan Auction by a Daoist Fellow yesterday."
Before long, the auction resumed. Lin Xiaxue, wearing her usual smile, scanned the room. "This item is called Rejuvenation Water. Just one drop can instantly restore the Spiritual Energy within the Spirit Sea to its peak."
"Rejuvenation Water?"
"Just one drop can instantly restore Spiritual Power to its peak?"
"Is there really such a thing in the world? Is it true?"
Lin Xiaxue’s words reignited the entire auction hall, with everyone wearing expressions of disbelief and discussing animatedly.
"Ladies and gentlemen, rest assured, this item has been personally verified by our Tianyuan Auction and poses no issues. Today, we are auctioning fifty drops of Rejuvenation Water. Considering the price, we will split it into five auctions, ten drops each, with a starting bid of five million Spirit Stones," Lin Xiaxue continued.
"Five million five hundred thousand!"
"Five million six hundred thousand!"
"Six million Spirit Stones!"
The auction began, and many people eagerly bid, clearly very interested in this Divine Water.
Being able to instantly restore Spiritual Power to its peak was akin to having an excellent life-saving card.
When experts battled, they inevitably consumed a great deal, and if their strength was equivalent, the outcome would depend on whose Spiritual Power was exhausted first.
Having this item during a battle, a single drop restoring the Spiritual Power completely, was akin to controlling Creation itself, wasn’t it?
"My Wangyan Sect bids eight million; I hope fellow bidders will give us some consideration..."
Inside a grand hall, a middle-aged man rose and gestured to the people around him.
"What respect does your Wangyan Sect command to think you can take ten drops of Rejuvenation Water for eight million?"
However, before the middle-aged man could finish speaking, another person sneered, clearly holding some animosity against the Wangyan Sect. "My Lingtian Pavilion bids ten million Spirit Stones!"
"You!"
Hearing the other’s words, the complexion of the Wangyan Sect’s middle-aged man darkened. "Eleven million!"
"Twelve million!"
"Fifteen million!" The middle-aged man gritted his teeth, his gaze growing increasingly grim.
"Eighteen million!" The man from Lingtian Pavilion spoke again.
...
"Twenty-four million, if you continue to bid, just take it; how about that?" The middle-aged man scowled, looking quite displeased. The other kept challenging him, annoying him deeply.
"Ha ha, Wangyan Sect indeed has large coffers. This ten drops of Rejuvenation Water is worth at most twenty million Spirit Stones, yet you’ve bid twenty-four million. Admirable, admirable!"
The Lingtian Pavilion man continued to mock, "Well, since there are still forty drops left, I won’t compete with you any further. But these twenty-four million Spirit Stones, I’m afraid they’ve drained your sect’s savings of several decades in one go, right?"
As he had said, the Wangyan Sect was a second-tier power, not a Sacred Land, and twenty-four million Spirit Stones indeed had drained the sect’s savings of several decades, or even a hundred years.
Although he had overspent by four million Spirit Stones, the Wangyan Sect’s man finally breathed a sigh of relief. With this Divine Water as a life-saving measure, it would serve as a foundation in future conflicts with the Lingtian Pavilion.
Soon, the auction continued, and the atmosphere in the hall surged with unprecedented vigor. Many people joined in the competition, including Alchemists who had not spoken up until now.
"The last ten drops of Rejuvenation Water, the starting bid, likewise, is five million Spirit Stones..."
As a result of an intense competition, the previous forty drops found their buyers, collectively fetching nearly a hundred million Spirit Stones, far exceeding the expectations of Lin Xiaxue and Mo Wangchen.
"Thirty million!"
As Lin Xiaxue’s words just fell, from within the number one private room, Bai Le’s voice was heard.
He had bid thirty million in one go, significantly higher than each of the previous auctions.
