Alchemy Sovereign Against the Heaven
Chapter 686 - 677: The Infuriated Bai Le

Chapter 686: Chapter 677: The Infuriated Bai Le

"What?!"

"Starting straight at thirty million?!"

As Bai Le spoke, everyone in the auction house who had hoped to participate in the bidding for the last ten drops of the Divine Spring stood up in shock.

"These are the final ten drops of Rejuvenation Water. I was determined to get them, and I’ve already prepared twenty-five million Spirit Stones, but unexpectedly..."

Some powerful figures from major factions gritted their teeth, their expressions not looking good.

"Truly generous. As expected of Bai Le, the Divine Son of the Xiaotian Sect, bidding thirty million in one go, a price much higher than any previous auctions."

"I didn’t expect Bai Le to be interested in the Divine Spring."

"His main goal here is that drop of Qiongqi Essence Blood, but now it’s been bid away by the young man in private room number six."

Everyone was discussing. Bai Le was not an Alchemist; his participation in this auction was not for the Four-Leaf Ginseng, only for the Qiongqi Essence Blood.

Since he couldn’t get the Essence Blood, he had no choice but to compete for the ten drops of Divine Spring, after all, the Four-Leaf Ginseng was useless to him.

"Thirty million Spirit Stones, the first call."

"Thirty million Spirit Stones, the second call."

...

As the crowd whispered, Lin Xiaxue’s voice once again resonated throughout the auction hall.

It seemed there would be no surprises—Bai Le’s bid of thirty million Spirit Stones had already exceeded the value of the ten drops of Rejuvenation Water.

Was there anyone who would continue to raise the bid?

"Thirty-one million Spirit Stones."

Suddenly, just as Lin Xiaxue was about to make the third call, a soft voice emerged in the previously quiet venue.

In a flash!

No need for any deliberate cue, everyone’s gaze instantly turned to the source of the voice, to private room number six, where Mo Wangchen was located.

"What?!"

"The man in private room number six bid again?!"

"He just bid on a drop of Qiongqi Essence Blood, and now he offers thirty-one million again. How many Spirit Stones does he have?"

No one present was unsurprised, and their faces were filled with incredulity, discussing fervently.

"Uh..."

On the stage, Lin Xiaxue was equally dumbfounded, as she was the only one who knew that these Rejuvenation Waters were brought to the auction by Mo Wangchen himself.

Yet, why did he suddenly decide to join the bidding now?

"Could it be he’s targeting Bai Le?"

"Earlier, during the bidding for the Qiongqi Essence Blood, Bai Le directed killing intent at the man in private room number six. His counter-bid is understandable, but where did he get so many Spirit Stones from?"

Even for a Sacred Land, producing tens of millions of Spirit Stones at once would be very taxing.

Mo Wangchen’s personal wealth seemed not to be inferior to that of a Sacred Land, which was truly astonishing.

"This person showed killing intent towards me; I carry the Qiongqi Essence Blood, so his attack is inevitable."

"With a Peak sixth-level Emperor Realm cultivation and being one of the outstanding talents of this era, dealing with him was quite troublesome. If he used those ten drops of the Divine Spring against me in battle, it would be a significant problem..."

Inside private room number six, Mo Wangchen muttered to himself; no matter what, Bai Le could not obtain the Divine Spring.

The forty drops of Divine Spring already auctioned reached nearly a billion in price, and after subtracting the thirty million Spirit Stones he bid for the Qiongqi Essence Blood, he still had about seventy million remaining. Along with the thirty-one million for the Divine Spring, he had forty million left, which was enough to secure the Four-Leaf Ginseng for himself.

"Damn it!"

In private room number one, Bai Le smashed the chair beneath him in rage, his face twisted in extreme anger.

"Senior Brother." The woman accompanying him frowned, equally surprised that Mo Wangchen had bid again.

"We’re leaving!"

Bai Le’s eyes were filled with an unabashed killing intent that focused entirely on Mo Wangchen in private room number six.

This cold intent brought the entire atmosphere to a nerve-wracking peak.

Yet it existed for just a few moments; the killing intent dispersed as Bai Le withdrew his gaze and decisively exited private room number one with the woman, leaving the Tianyuan Auction.

Seeing him leave, it was not hard for everyone to imagine that after the auction ended, a battle would surely take place outside Huashen City.

Bai Le wanted to kill Mo Wangchen; it was now indisputable.

"Thirty-one million Spirit Stones, the first call."

"Thirty-one million Spirit Stones, the second call."

"Thirty-one million Spirit Stones, the third call."

"Boom!"

The final hammer fell, confirming the owner of the last ten drops of the Divine Spring.

Lin Xiaxue personally brought the Divine Spring to private room number six and handed it over to Mo Wangchen.

She held the Jade Bottle containing ten drops of Rejuvenation Water, hesitating to give it immediately to Mo Wangchen.

Instead, she smiled and said, "Young Master Mo, this item was something you provided to be auctioned at the Tianyuan Auction. Now you’re bidding on it yourself, it’s truly..."

Lin Xiaxue smiled wryly. As the host of the Tianyuan Auction for many years, this was the first time she had encountered such a thing.

"There was no other choice; Bai Le showed killing intent towards me, so the Rejuvenation Water can’t fall into his hands," Mo Wangchen replied with a smile.

"Indeed..."

Lin Xiaxue nodded. After a moment of silence, she spoke again, "Young Master Mo, how about this: my Tianyuan Auction is willing to buy these ten drops of Rejuvenation Water from you at the original price."

"Original price?" Mo Wangchen was taken aback.

Lin Xiaxue smiled, "To be honest, thirty-one million Spirit Stones far exceed the value of the ten drops of Rejuvenation Water. Based on estimates, these ten drops are worth at most about twenty-three million, so my Tianyuan Auction is willing to offer twenty-three million for them."

"That’s fine."

Without much hesitation, after hearing Lin Xiaxue’s words, Mo Wangchen nodded in agreement.

Calculating everything, after this auction ended and he obtained the Four-Leaf Ginseng, there wouldn’t be many Spirit Stones left on him. Having this twenty-three million Spirit Stones would at least offer some peace of mind.

He wasn’t short on Divine Spring, and right now, Spirit Stones were just a mere abstraction to him.

So whether it was twenty-three million or thirty-three million, it made little difference.

"Thank you, Young Master Mo."

Lin Xiaxue expressed her thanks with a delighted face. What she had originally mentioned in passing, unexpectedly gained Mo Wangchen’s agreement, making her deeply intrigued by his even more mysterious origins than she had imagined.

Soon, when Lin Xiaxue returned to the auction stage, the atmosphere reached an unprecedented climax because the next item would be the last of the auction—the Four-Leaf Ginseng.

It would be a true battle of titans; many Alchemists in the private rooms on the second floor, who had been silent so far, would surely compete fiercely.

In the entire Heavenly Gang, the wealthiest were neither the Sacred Lands nor the Ancient Royal Families, but those highly respected Alchemists.

Crafting one Pill could fetch a fortune, and after years of accumulating wealth, who knew how many Spirit Stones they possessed? It must be an extremely incredible amount.
