Chapter 614 - 440: Dragon-Containing Grass, Exotic Lotus, True Realm Flower, Tree of the World of Ten Thousand Races

Zhang Fu spoke in a grave tone.

"Huuuh..."

Just then.

The representatives from the Virtual True Realm Company stepped forward. The one in the center simply waved his right hand, and a transparent flower suddenly bloomed in his palm.

"This..."

Involuntarily.

All eyes in the room were drawn to it.

Because.

This was no ordinary flower, but a True Realm Flower—one that could only bloom under extremely special circumstances.

"A True Realm Flower that has mutated one hundred and eight times, plus two billion Hundred Thousand Years Longevity Crystals."

And so.

The Virtual True Realm Company made its bid.

GASP...

The entire crowd drew in a sharp breath.

Because.

The True Realm Flower was exceptionally precious, its value possibly even exceeding that of the Golden Mushroom Fruit, yet the Virtual True Realm Company had still offered it.

So.

This was already an exorbitant bid.

"This..."

"A True Realm Flower, and one that’s mutated 108 times at that."

"Tsk tsk..."

"Virtual True Realm Company, at that price, aren’t you afraid of taking a loss?"

"..."

Everyone was shocked.

The representatives from Eternal City and the True Realm Dimension Bureau even voiced their ridicule.

"Frankly, whether we profit in Longevity Crystals is irrelevant. The main thing is that the Virtual True Realm Company wishes to form a good relationship with Lady Changzhang Zhuhuo."

The representatives from the Virtual True Realm Company said with smiles on their faces.

"Not bad."

At that moment.

Changzhang Zhuhuo’s cool voice rang out, but her only comment was a simple "not bad."

HUFF...

Zhang Fu took a deep breath. "The Virtual True Realm Company has bid one True Realm Flower that has mutated one hundred and eight times, plus two billion Hundred Thousand Years Longevity Crystals."

"Going once."

"Are there any other bids?"

This time.

The entire hall fell silent.

No one else spoke or made a bid.

Because.

The Virtual True Realm Company had already pushed the price to its absolute peak, maxing it out. Under such circumstances, it was naturally impossible for anyone else to bid.

"This... this..."

At this moment.

Lin Feifei and the others were beside themselves with anxiety.

From beginning to end.

Xu Qing hadn’t made a single bid.

However.

The Virtual True Realm Company’s bid was far too high.

Under these circumstances.

Lin Feifei couldn’t think of any way out.

They felt that their mission was about to fail.

"A True Realm Flower mutated one hundred and eight times and two billion Hundred Thousand Years Longevity Crystals—going twice!"

"A True Realm Flower mutated one hundred and eight times and two billion Hundred Thousand Years Longevity Crystals—third and final call!"

"..."

With three consecutive calls.

The deal was about to be sealed.

Everyone present believed the Authority over the Golden Mushroom Fruit would belong to none other than the Virtual True Realm Company.

Even.

The representatives of the Virtual True Realm Company were already showing satisfied smiles.

However.

Just as Zhang Fu was about to bring down the gavel.

"Wait!"

And so.

Xu Qing deliberately chose this moment to stand up.

Instantly.

All eyes in the room focused on him.

"It’s the one from the True Realm Tower."

"Are they going to make a bid?"

"But the Virtual True Realm Company has already maxed out the bid. If they bid any higher, it’ll be a losing deal."

"The True Realm Tower is in the business of trade and commerce; they don’t do losing business."

"..."

The crowd murmured amongst themselves.

"!!!"

Involuntarily.

Lin Feifei and the others held their breath.

"I’ll make a bid."

Xu Qing’s expression was calm, the corners of his mouth turned up slightly. He was already fully confident. With a wave of his right hand, a sapphire-blue vine unfurled from his palm.

"The Tree of the World of Ten Thousand Races."

Xu Qing said.

"What is that?"

"I’ve never seen anything like it."

"It doesn’t seem to be a species from the Unique True Realm?"

"This..."

Everyone present was stunned.

That’s right.

This was the ’Tree of the World’.

First.

The first page of his Encyclopedia of All Things recorded the World of Ten Thousand Races Origin. He had spent the corresponding True Points to raise the World of Ten Thousand Races Origin to Level 30.

One could say.

The status of the World of Ten Thousand Races Origin even surpassed that of the Sea of Chaos.

And so.

After the World of Ten Thousand Races Origin was promoted to Level 30, it had, in accordance with Xu Qing’s will, nurtured an extremely special Tree of the World of Ten Thousand Races.

Xu Qing took it out from the Level 30 World of Ten Thousand Races Origin and used the power of the Encyclopedia of All Things to record it.

Afterward.

Xu Qing then promoted the Level 1 Tree of the World of Ten Thousand Races to Level 30.

He spent the corresponding True Points.

From then on.

He had obtained this extremely special Tree of the World.

"This is..."

BUZZ!

The next moment.

Before anyone could react, they suddenly felt an extremely terrifying pressure. From within the Void, a red-haired goddess emerged.

This red-haired goddess was none other than Changzhang Zhuhuo.

WHOOSH!

Xu Qing’s vision blurred.

Before he could even react.

Changzhang Zhuhuo had already appeared before him.

"!!!"

Xu Qing’s pupils contracted. He immediately bowed and said, "This junior, Xu Qing, pays his respects, milady."

"Mm."

But Changzhang Zhuhuo had no time to waste on pleasantries with Xu Qing. She got straight to the point: "This Tree of the World of Ten Thousand Races, where did you get it?"

"Milady."

Xu Qing bowed again. He said, "This junior has actually experienced countless tribulations to make my way from the Sea of Chaos into the Unique True Realm."

"I’ve only just managed to secure a small foothold in the Unique True Realm."

"So."

"This Tree of the World of Ten Thousand Races is something this junior obtained by chance in the Sea of Chaos."

SIGH...

Changzhang Zhuhuo took a deep breath, her tone tinged with disbelief. "To think the Sea of Chaos could actually nurture such a thing."

"Good."

Changzhang Zhuhuo said directly, "I’ll take it in trade."

"Thank you, milady!"

A look of joy appeared on Xu Qing’s face.

"What?!"

"This..."

"How is this possible?"

"So what exactly is this tree?"

"But why is the aura from this tree not even one-ten-thousandth as strong as the True Realm Flower’s? Why? On what grounds was this tree chosen!"

The crowd was aghast, their eyes wide with disbelief.

"Zhang Fu."

Changzhang Zhuhuo took the Level 30 Tree of the World of Ten Thousand Races from Xu Qing’s hand, her mind already completely immersed in it, almost unable to pull herself away.

"I’ll leave the rest for you to handle."

Changzhang Zhuhuo instructed.

"Yes!"

Zhang Fu bowed.

"Mm."

BUZZ!

Changzhang Zhuhuo vanished into thin air.

From beginning to end.

She had paid no heed to anyone else in the room, as if they didn’t even exist.

"On what grounds?!"

The representatives from the Virtual True Realm Company couldn’t help but question Zhang Fu.

"Everyone."

At this point.

Zhang Fu’s expression had turned cold. With the transaction concluded, everyone present—aside from Xu Qing and his companions—was no longer a guest.

Naturally.

There was no need for Zhang Fu and his people to keep up their welcoming smiles.

"This was the Master’s decision. We need only abide by it. Besides, this was the Master’s property to begin with. The Master can give it to whomever she wishes. Don’t tell me you intend to interfere with the Master?"

Zhang Fu said in a low, dangerous voice.

"But..."

The people from the Virtual True Realm Company wanted to say more.

"Enough!"

BOOM!

An extremely terrifying aura erupted from Zhang Fu.

It was only then that.

Everyone realized that this was Zhang Fu’s territory. They had been polite before because they were treating the bidders as guests.

Now.

That Changzhang Zhuhuo had essentially ordered them out, Zhang Fu and his people no longer needed to be courteous.

"You may all leave."

Zhang Fu said gravely.

"Yes."

"..."

In the end.

Although the True Realm Dimension Bureau, Eternal City, and the Virtual True Realm Company were unwilling, they could only lower their heads and depart in silence.

In fact.

The reason Changzhang Zhuhuo took a fancy to Xu Qing’s item was that his Tree of the World of Ten Thousand Races had ascended step by step from the Sea of Chaos, breaking through the Sea of Chaos’s value limits. After being raised to Level 30, it had even reached the level of the Unique True Realm.

One must understand.

Changzhang Zhuhuo herself had originally ascended from the Sea of Chaos to the Unique True Realm.

Most importantly.

Changzhang Zhuhuo’s true form was actually a most ordinary maple tree. Back in the Sea of Chaos, within her home world, she had awakened due to an accident and then ascended step by step to reach her current level.

Therefore.

The Level 30 Tree of the World of Ten Thousand Races was of referential value to her and would also aid her in her Cultivation.
