Chapter 1046 1006: Spending Money Like Dirt
When the auction price of the Ghost Luo Leaf reached a staggering 270,000 Low Grade Spirit Stones, many people wondered if this was the limit. It was already a sky-high price!
However, what followed made them realize they were truly frogs at the bottom of the well. Their vision was indeed too narrow.
"300,000!" Someone else bid!
"320,000!" The owner of the cold voice continued to bid.
"350,000!" This time, it was again Liuu Zhen who bid. After bidding, he hesitated for a moment but still gritted his teeth and said, "I wonder which elder this is? This Ghost Luo Leaf is indeed of great use to me, I must have it. Could I trouble you for some convenience?"
The crowd quieted down slightly.
The old man at the Central Auction House also furrowed his brows.
But in the next moment, the cold voice unexpectedly sounded again.
It was as if he hadn't heard Liuu Zhen's polite request.
"400,000!" He directly increased the bid by fifty thousand.
"430,000!" Someone else bid, still willing to follow!
"450,000!"
"470,000!"
"500,000!"
...
Then another round of fierce bidding began!
Soon, the auction price of the Ghost Luo Leaf had already reached 600,000 Low Grade Spirit Stones, which was six times the starting price.
However, with the price reaching such levels, the number of people willing to continue bidding finally started to decrease.
"630,000!"
"650,000!"
"680,000!"
...
A few sparse bidding voices sounded again! But even these few thin voices made the hearts of those present skip a beat each time they rang out.
It's already 700,000 Low Grade Spirit Stones! This is a true major scene, where Spirit Stones are not seen as Spirit Stones!
"700,000!" Finally, the gloomy-faced Liuu Zhen spoke again.
Even 700,000 Low Grade Spirit Stones made him feel immeasurably painful! But no matter how painful, he had no choice because he had to get the Ghost Luo Leaf at any cost!
When this astonishing price of 700,000 Low Grade Spirit Stones came out, even the person who previously ignored Liuu Zhen fell silent. To purchase this piece of Ghost Luo Leaf at a price exceeding 700,000 Low Grade Spirit Stones was indeed too extravagant, he was already somewhat unwilling.
Other competitors also fell into a brief silence upon hearing this. Such a price of 700,000 Low Grade Spirit Stones was indeed too high, and they didn't want to be the foolhardy ones anymore...
"Is there no one willing to continue bidding?"
"It seems so, there's no way. The price of 700,000 Low Grade Spirit Stones is already somewhat exaggerated. If it weren't for the fact that the Ice Jade Demon Soul Technique from Ice Demon Palace requires this Ghost Luo Leaf for cultivation, I think Liuu Zhen wouldn't want to be such a fool either?"
"Yes, the most formidable technique of the Ice Jade Demon Soul Technique, the Ice Jade Demon Soul Ghost Image, if one wants to cultivate it successfully, it requires the use of the Ghost Luo Leaf... Speaking of which, for Liuu Zhen to buy it at 700,000 Low Grade Spirit Stones isn't too much of a loss."
...
Seeing the guests in the one by one shouting sky-high prices fall silent, some murmurs began to spread in the venue. A piece of Ghost Luo Leaf that fetched a staggering price of 700,000 Low Grade Spirit Stones, indeed broadened their horizons today.
Seeing this scene, Chen Fei squinted his eyes and smiled slightly, realizing that his moment to step in had finally arrived. He then raised his voice and said, "750,000!"
"Hmm?" The expressions on everyone's faces stiffened for a moment, shocked and amazed... Even those eyes in the sky from the VIP rooms looked extremely peculiar.
Is he interested in the Ghost Luo Leaf too? Or is he simply trying to irritate Liuu Zhen?
Then, a small range of commotion spread throughout the auction hall.
Many gazes once again fell upon Chen Fei, filled with amazement. It was acceptable for him to spend Spirit Stones like water before, but now, he wants to compete as well? Does he still have so many Spirit Stones?
After all, the amount of Spirit Stones Chen Fei spent before and after added up was nearly a million! It seemed impossible for him to possess beyond two million Low Grade Spirit Stones in total, right?!
Thinking of this, many people's eyes on Chen Fei reddened! Intensely jealous, they were unsure and suspicious.
"What? He, he..." Upon hearing Chen Fei's bid, Liuu Zhen's face changed instantly! With a sinister glare, he looked down at Chen Fei's direction, whether deep in his eyes or on his face, it was all cold.
"I bid, 800,000 Low Grade Spirit Stones!" Immediately, Liuu Zhen gritted his teeth again and bid, his words filled with a chilling icy killing intent.
Countless people gasped again. 800,000 Low Grade Spirit Stones, this was simply insane... Clearly, Liuu Zhen is truly determined to obtain the Ghost Luo Leaf at any cost! This amount of Spirit Stones is challenging even for the Peak of the Third Heavenly Layer of Foundation Establishment True Person Realm experts to come up with.
"One million!"
However, immediately following, Chen Fei placidly raised the bid once more.
Yet, the extent of the increase in these mild words caused everyone's pupils to contract violently!
O-one million!?
"Bang!" In the sky, in the VIP room where Liu Zhen was, the chair he was sitting on instantly exploded into powder, spiritual energy surged wildly, terrifying and extremely chaotic…
Afterwards, Liu Zhen's eyes turned sinister and wrathful, staring murderously at Chen Fei through the void. Simultaneously, a hint of absurd uncertainty flickered in his eyes…
One million low-grade spirit stones?
Directly raised by two hundred thousand low-grade spirit stones!?
Is this looking down on him, Liu Zhen? Not wanting to entangle with him, trying to let him know to retreat!?
And, how could this commoner have so many low-grade spirit stones? How could it be!?
"Young Palace Master!" Beside him, the old man at the Third Heavenly Layer of Foundation Establishment True Person Realm also changed his expression slightly, unable to help but remind Liu Zhen. Let's not even discuss whether it's worth spending so many spirit stones to buy this piece of Ghost Luo Leaf!
Just speaking of this one million low-grade spirit stones, it's already beyond their limit.
"I know."
Liu Zhen gritted his teeth deeply with a dark face, his eyes emitting a cold chill filled with killing intent, saying, "Enough, let's go, there's no need to stay here anymore. We'll wait at the foot of the mountain and call in some more people! If I don't make that commoner obediently hand over the Ghost Luo Leaf and Five-Colored Essence today, I'll write my name backwards from now on."
With those words, he directly left through the teleportation formation in the room!
The old man at the Third Heavenly Layer of Foundation Establishment True Person Realm and the others immediately followed.
"Liu Zhen, he, he left?"
"Nonsense, why wouldn't he? One million low-grade spirit stones, do you think that's just rocks? Even if it's Liu Zhen, he probably can't come up with it, right?"
"Who on earth is this guy? I calculated, including the Ghost Luo Leaf, he's already spent over two million low-grade spirit stones at this auction today. Does he really have that many low-grade spirit stones!?"
"Hiss! Already over two million? But so what if he has spirit stones? Didn't you see Liu Zhen's murderous expression when he left? I bet, this isn't the end of it today! I figure Liu Zhen intends to block him at the foot of the mountain…"
"Oh, this kid is so reckless, daring to offend Liu Zhen like this. This time, I'd be surprised if he doesn't get killed!"
...
The crowd stirred.
However, the Ghost Luo Leaf had already completely fallen into Chen Fei's hands.
After all, the price had already reached an astronomical one million low-grade spirit stones, who would still be so stubborn to continue competing with him?
Didn't you see Liu Zhen, who left in disgrace and seething anger, as a clear example!?
And this time, even the elderly man on the auction platform was silent for a moment before he continued with the auction, launching into another lively scene.
As time passed, the number of auctioned treasures reached seventy, eighty, ninety items… During this time, Chen Fei rarely made bids, but whenever he did, wanting something, the other bidders immediately fell silent.
Obviously, knowing they couldn't compete, they wisely gave up! To avoid the embarrassment of bidding but not winning, which is just unnecessary…
Finally, this auction reached its conclusion. The old man summoned the hundredth, and also the last item for auction.
Dong!
A dull dragon bell echoed, and almost everyone present straightened up, with all eyes intensely and eagerly looking towards the auction platform.
Because they knew full well that the hundredth and final item at the annual Floating Immortal Mountain auction was always a truly heart-stirring treasure! It's the bottom-drawer good stuff that Floating Immortal Pavilion uses to hold face.
Thus, amidst the many fervent gazes, the elderly man standing in the center of the auction house raised his hand, and a ball of light appeared—within it was a scroll exuding chilling sword qi! It struck a glaring chord and instantly became extremely eye-catching.
"What? Isn't this…!" Ho! Upon seeing the scroll exuding chilling sword qi, Chen Fei unexpectedly sprang up from his seat with wide eyes of surprise! His expression hesitated, yet excited.
If he wasn't mistaken, then this thing seems to be…
At this moment, the elderly man at the center of the auction lightly raised the sword qi scroll, and then slowly began to speak: "This object is a fragment of a sword formation diagram called the 'Thousand Weight Sword Slaughter Formation.' As for its power… Don't know if you have heard of the name Thousand Weight Sword Monarch!?"
"Thousand Weight Sword Monarch?"
"A hundred and twenty years ago, a renowned sword formation master of the Outer Domain! An existence in the Minor Heavenly Position Primordial Core Realm, the Thousand Weight Sword Monarch!?"
Many couldn't help but tremble within. Evidently, they didn't expect this scroll to be associated with a figure from the Primordial Core Realm a hundred years ago, such an astonishing origin!
Immediately, hearts couldn't help but tremble wildly, eyes reddening with fervor!
Connected to a Primordial Core Realm existence, this scroll, is undoubtedly a priceless treasure.
