"My father said that any spirit stone transaction must at least double in value, otherwise it would be a loss of face for him."

"My family has nothing but spirit stones!"

If you can't compete, then obediently step aside.

These words caused many forces to pause in surprise.

"What an arrogant brat!"

"Could his father be some kind of saint?"

"Or is this kid from some ancient family?"

Although this is the Heaven and Earth Auction House, it is the territory of the Underworld.

But this is just too arrogant.

"Owner, can this kid really afford the price?"

A powerful figure spoke to the void with a puzzled expression.

"Upon assessment, the VIPs in VIP room number 44 are indeed able to afford the price."

A powerful figure from the auction house responded.

The reply from the auction house only fueled everyone's curiosity. Which organization would dare to let a child who was at most seven or eight years old run around with such a large sum of spirit stones?

"Three hundred million high-grade spirit stones!"

After a moment's hesitation, one of the forces ultimately decided to continue the bidding.

No one wanted to give up on this young golden-winged roc easily.

"Six hundred million high-grade spirit stones!"

Without hesitation, the person in VIP room number 44 doubled their bet again in one go.

"Seven hundred million high-grade spirit stones!"

"1.4 billion high-grade spirit stones!"

All eyes turned to VIP room number 44, their expressions strange.

They really did double.

Fourteen billion high-grade spirit stones—even some major sects with insufficient resources might not be able to come up with that amount.

But in the little child's mouth, it was no different from fourteen high-grade spirit stones, as if it were just a string of numbers.

What kind of power can be so extravagant?

If I had such a spendthrift son in my family, I would definitely slap him to death and then send him back to school to be reformed.

However, some people's eyes were constantly moving, and it was unclear what they were thinking.

In the end, the Golden-Winged Roc cub was acquired for 1.4 billion high-grade spirit stones.

"Yay yay yay!"

"What a magnificent bird!"

From now on, we'll call it Little Jinjin.

In VIP box number 44, a boy of about seven or eight years old, dressed in a gorgeous outfit embroidered with exquisite patterns, with a chubby little face that looked adorable, was excitedly talking.

His name is Chen Duobao, and he is not from the Southern Wilderness.

Bored at home, I secretly slipped out and ran to the Southern Wilderness.

It just so happened that the Heaven and Earth Auction was being held, so I came to join in the fun.

Fourteen billion high-grade spirit stones are really nothing to him.

......

"Central Region, President of the Tianbao Chamber of Commerce, only son of Chen Tianbao."

"What's this guy doing in the Southern Wilderness?"

Yang An looked at the figure displayed in the Heavenly Shroud Realm with some curiosity.

The Tianbao Chamber of Commerce is the number one chamber of commerce in the Central Region, and also a behemoth spanning many Dao Domains.

An emperor once emerged from its power.

The current president, Chen Tianbao, is a peak Quasi-Saint, a figure from the same era as the Confucian Sword Venerable.

Although not as good as the Confucian Sword Master, he is still among the most outstanding.

If the Heaven and Earth Chamber of Commerce wants to expand into the Central Region, the Heavenly Treasure Chamber of Commerce will be the first major obstacle in its path.

"However, these top powers are indeed quite wealthy."

Yang An looked at Chen Duobao and couldn't help but sigh as he saw that Chen Duobao didn't take the 1.4 billion high-grade spirit stones seriously at all.

Spirit stones are really nothing to these top powers.

For them, the only thing worth paying attention to is the divine source!

......

"The fifth item, Sword Intent Grass"

Legend has it that in the ruins left by battles between supreme beings, a fragment of artistic conception often remains, enduring through the ages. Over time, this has created some dangerous and harsh environments.

"This Sword Intent Grass grew by absorbing the residual intent from the battle between two supreme sword masters. If one consumes it, there is a very high probability that it will help the user comprehend that intent."

"Everyone should know how important artistic conception is, right?"

After the beam of light from the Golden-Winged Roc chick faded, another beam of light appeared.

Among them was a tall, upright blade of grass shaped like a long sword.

Even through the beam of light, everyone could sense the faint yet powerful sword intent emanating from it, which sent shivers down their spines.

"Hahaha, heaven is on my side! I am a swordsman! I am determined to get this Sword Intent Grass!"

"My grandson has been stuck at the Sword Intent Realm recently, unable to break through for a long time. As long as he obtains this Sword Intent Grass, my grandson will surely be able to comprehend the sword intent and become a sword prodigy!"

"Such powerful sword intent! These two supreme experts fighting must have comprehended the upper-third grade sword intent. If we absorb the sword intent from this sword intent grass, it will greatly increase our chances of comprehending the upper-third grade sword intent. My Purple Cloud Sword Palace is determined to obtain this sword intent grass!"

"Why is it Sword Intent Grass and not Spear Intent Grass? What are we, who cultivate the way of the spear, supposed to do?"

"Ahhh, I studied swordsmanship!"

Those who study swordsmanship are overjoyed when faced with the Sword Intent Grass, but those who do not practice swordsmanship can only beat their chests in frustration.

Swordsmanship is divided into five realms: Sword Momentum, Sword Intent, Sword Domain, Sword Laws, and Supreme Swordsmanship.

To be able to comprehend the essence of swordplay is already to be considered a rare genius in swordsmanship.

Reaching the Sword Intent Realm is enough to be called a sword prodigy. Sword Intent is divided into nine ranks, with the first rank being the highest and the ninth rank being the lowest. However, it is said that above the first rank, there is a supreme sword intent that is uniquely superior!

Those who can comprehend the supreme sword intent are all true sword prodigies!

As for the Sword Domain, comprehending it is something only a saint could achieve.

The way of the sword, once you embark on this path, is like a hundred boats racing, truly worthy of vying for the highest position.

Swordsmanship is supreme...

This is a legendary realm, which Yang An learned about from the system.

In the Divine Wilderness Dao Domain, comprehending sword intent grants one the qualification to fight beyond their level!

However, very few people can comprehend the essence of swordsmanship; among millions of people who comprehend sword momentum, perhaps only one genius can comprehend the essence of swordsmanship.

Now, this opportunity to rise to the top is right in front of everyone!

How could those who practice swordsmanship not go crazy?

Even the two elders from the Heavenly Sword Holy Land who followed Dugu Jian were somewhat tempted.

Although they were all elders of the Heavenly Sword Holy Land, they had already comprehended the sword intent.

But they weren't all alone!

This sword intent grass is of great help to both their descendants and their most outstanding disciples.

After all, not everyone is as monstrous as this Saintly Son Dugu.

The transition from sword momentum to sword intent is a major hurdle, and to successfully break through it, the right timing, location, and people are all indispensable!

Sensing that the atmosphere in the auction room had been stirred up, Sophie parted her red lips slightly, waved her jade hand, and announced.

"The fifth item, Sword Intent Grass, is a rare and precious treasure that can help one comprehend the essence of swordsmanship."

"Starting bid: 100,000 high-grade spirit stones; minimum increment: 10,000 high-grade spirit stones."

"The auction has officially begun!"
