On April 1, 2024, which was April Fool's Day, black holes appeared and meteors descended, plunging humanity into apocalyptic disasters.
The reborn Ling Tian relied on his infinite space t...
Just when Makino thought the auction was going to fail, a voice broke the silence.
"Ten million."
Of course, the one who made the bid was Ling Tian, and his bid aroused the suspicion and attention of many people.
"Twenty million!"
Liu Shuquan on the side glanced at Ling Tian with a half-smile. His purpose was naturally not to take a fancy to the broken sword. He just wanted to make things difficult for Ling Tian. Tens of millions were not money to him.
However, after he raised the price, he received bids from several other VIP rooms. This was something Muye had not expected. Of course, he was the happiest one. With competition, the price would be higher, and the more money their sect would make.
"Since everyone is so interested, I'll join in the fun too. One hundred million, haha!"
The voice came from the VIP room in the central office. No need to ask to know his identity. It was none other than Batian, who was ranked first on the genius list. He was an extraordinary existence in the middle stage of the Spirit Transformation Realm and no one in the younger generation could match him.
He was not a disciple of the four major families, but just a disciple of a second-rate sect. However, no one from any sect dared to kill him, only because his master was Mo Bei, one of the three great cultivators in the Northern Territory.
"One hundred and fifty million!"
......
"Five hundred million!"
The price soared all the way to 500 million before it stabilized. The one who made the bid was Batian. It could be seen that he was determined to win. Just when he thought there would be no surprises, Ling Tian made another move, and it seemed as if it would go straight to his heart.
"One billion!"
The moment the price was announced, everyone in the room gasped. One billion? That was a whopping two times the price, and it was a terrifying amount.
"1.1 billion."
Batian made another bid. Ling Tian narrowed his eyes, feeling that the other party might know the origin of the broken sword. He immediately made up his mind and shouted, "Five billion!"
When this price was announced, the scene fell into complete silence. Mu Qingrong, who was standing by, was very surprised. Even the Xuantian treasure could not be auctioned for such a price, let alone a broken sword?
Muye, who was presiding over the auction, was a little surprised. An item that could be sold at such a price had not appeared in the auction house for many years. He couldn't help but take a second look at Ling Tian who was bidding.
Batian became even more hesitant. He could afford this price, but it was not in line with his actual interests. In fact, he did not see the origin of the Soul-Devouring Immortal-Destroying Sword. He just sensed that the origin of this broken sword was extraordinary, so he was just taking a gamble on his luck. While he was wavering, he was even more puzzled as to why Ling Tian paid such a high price to bid for this broken sword?
"Could it be that he knows the origin of this broken sword or that the broken part is in his body?"
This kind of doubt filled the minds of many powerful people, and their eyes were fixed on Ling Tian intentionally or unintentionally.
Ling Tian certainly knew that there might be a lot of trouble next, but he was not afraid and had no regrets, because this sword belonged only to him.
"Anyone else want to bid? This is a mysterious treasure that only exists in the upper realm. It might even contain earth-shattering power, haha!"
Makino was still fanning the flames, trying to see if the price could break through again. Unfortunately, after waiting for a long time, no one made a bid. He knew that it was a bit too much to ask for, so he immediately announced the result of the auction.
"Congratulations to VIP No. 6 for winning the Xuantian Treasure. The next item is..."
Ling Tian was so excited that he could not hear what Muye said next.
"Goodbye."
After apologizing to Mu Qingrong, Ling Tian left the VIP room impatiently. He soon arrived at the back hall where the auction items were delivered and handed his auction number to the woman in charge.
"Hello, please deliver 5 billion low-grade spirit stones."
"Excuse me, I don't know if I can use items as collateral or temporary mortgage?"
"Yes, if you want to mortgage it, it will be calculated based on the purchase price. If you want to temporarily hold it, you need to use items of equal value. You also need to pay 50,000 low-grade spirit stones every day, and the payment will be settled at the time of delivery."
"Okay, I'll choose to temporarily hold it. This is my store purchase token. Please verify it."
"Please wait a moment."
The woman took Ling Tian's token, went into the backstage, and came out in less than twenty breaths, holding the broken sword in her hand.
"Hello, we have verified it. Please note that the temporary seizure period cannot exceed one month, otherwise we have the right to refuse the redemption of the item. Please keep this in mind."
"Understood, thank you!"
The moment Ling Tian took over the Soul-Devouring Immortal-Destroying Sword, an indescribable feeling arose in his heart. He suppressed his excitement, left the backstage and returned to the VIP room.
"Congratulations!"
Ling Tian responded to Mu Qingrong with a smile, but Liu Shuquan, standing beside him, said with a rather impolite smile, "Brother Ling, you spent a huge sum of money to buy this broken sword. Could it be that this sword has a great origin?"
"Yes, this sword is the number one emperor sword in the Immortal Realm, the Soul Devouring Immortal-Destroying Sword. Given time, I will be able to dominate the world. By then, I will be the only one among the young people in the four regions. Ten thousand years from now, I will definitely break through the shackles and enter the Immortal Realm of my dreams, becoming the overlord of one side, hahahaha~~"
Liu Shuquan's mouth twitched, and he ignored Ling Tian and turned his attention to the auction item. "The First Emperor Sword?" Hehe~
Of course, he was not stupid and knew that Ling Tian was just talking nonsense, but he felt that the broken sword must have some secret or extraordinary origin, otherwise who would spend so many spirit stones to buy a broken Xuantian sword.
"This kid has quite a secret, haha!"
Liu Shuquan rolled his eyes a few times, and his inexplicable smile showed that he had some thoughts in his mind.
Ling Tian would not notice these details. At this moment, he was attracted by the items in the center.
"The last item in this auction is two bottles of Chilong blood. Let's begin."
"Fifty million!"
The one who made the bid was not the VIP room on the top floor, but an old man down the hall. He had reached the realm of great perfection of the Nascent Soul, which was considered to be of some significance.
"Oh, it turns out to be Shen Buyu from the Beast Taming Sect. After seeing this Chilong Essence Blood, he is determined to get it."
"Yes, I heard that the red dragon in their sect is about to transform. With the blood of the red dragon, it might be able to break through and reach the twelfth level in one fell swoop. Then the strength of their sect will be greatly improved."
There was a lot of discussion below, and it was obvious that they had recognized the old man's identity.
"One hundred million."
"One hundred and fifty million!"
The essence and blood of the Chilong is a rare treasure. There are many people here who own spiritual beasts. The demand is not just for him, so the price naturally continues to rise, and the momentum is very fierce. In just a few breaths, it has reached 380 million.
"Five hundred million."
Ling Tian directly created a roadblock, blocking most of the people with ideas.
"Six hundred million..."
"Seven hundred million!"
Shen Buyu had just added 100 million when Ling Tian immediately surpassed him by another 100 million. He had no choice but to shake his head and sigh and withdraw from the auction. Others who still had ideas gave up decisively. Ling Tian's determination to win made them hesitant to follow suit. If they were tricked, the loss would outweigh the gain.
After a while, there was no increase in the price. Muye struck the final hammer, and Ling Tian obtained the essence of Chilong without any danger.
