Looking at the lit-up member rooms, Chen Ping couldn't help but tap the chairs. The second floor was simply not enough; the auction hall had added quite a few more luxurious seats. The space was large and the seats were spacious, perfectly prepared for those members who were a step too slow and missed out on a room.

"That's right," Chen Ping laughed. "This time, we'll make at least a hundred million."

As the atmosphere in the auction hall gradually heated up, a seductive succubus with alluring eyes gracefully walked onto the auction stage. Dressed in magnificent attire, her every move exuded endless allure and mystery, captivating the attention of everyone present. Her appearance not only heralded the imminent start of this black market auction but also added an air of mystery and solemnity to this grand transaction with her unique charisma and charm.

The members present adjusted their postures, intently awaiting the start of the auction. They knew that each item would likely spark fierce bidding wars. The succubus auctioneer would guide the entire auction with her rhythmic and persuasive words, making every expectant heart beat in sync with her commands.

The succubus auctioneer, Lilisa, stood in the center of the auction stage, her smile alluring and captivating. In her slightly magnetic and seductive voice, she announced to the audience, "Hehe, dear guests, it is a great honor for me, Lilisa, to preside over this black market auction today. I hope everyone will fully enjoy this unique trading feast and give my services your full support and patronage!"

As she finished her opening remarks, a burst of enthusiastic applause and whispers erupted in the auction hall. Everyone knew that under the guidance of this charismatic auctioneer, the upcoming auctions would be incredibly exciting. Lilisa, with her professional and captivating style, successfully ignited the enthusiasm and anticipation of all participants.

Seeing this, Chen Ping clicked his tongue and muttered, "As expected of the beauty effect. If it were any other man, he wouldn't receive this kind of treatment."

Looking at the enthusiastic crowd below, it seems the auction items are likely to rise in price significantly this time. Hehe, not bad, as long as it's to his advantage.

......

Lilisa: "Hehe~ Lilisa thanks all the distinguished guests for their praise. Now~ the auction officially begins! Please welcome the first item to the stage!"

Upon hearing this, everyone sat up straight. Although the woman was beautiful, they were there to sell things, not to admire her.

Before everyone's eyes, a storage bag appeared above the auction stage and floated there.

Lilisa waved her fair hand gently, and instantly a top-grade divine crystal appeared beside her storage bag. She chuckled, "I'm sure you distinguished guests know what this is, but allow me to explain further: it's a divine crystal! And a top-grade one at that! With this, your cultivation speed will increase dramatically!"

Everyone knows what a divine crystal is, but a top-grade divine crystal is different. Everyone present couldn't help but exclaim in surprise.

Lilisa: "Hehe, I won't play games with you. I have a total of 1 million top-grade divine crystals in my storage bag! The starting price is 100 million spirit pearls, and each bid must be at least 1 million spirit pearls higher. Let's start the bidding now!"

The moment the price was announced, the hall erupted in another uproar. One hundred million! And it was a spirit pearl! At first glance, it seemed outrageously high, but just three seconds later, people started making bids.

Unlike the black market in lower-level waters, the black market in high-level waters doesn't operate by shouting. Instead, the auction price appears above the auction platform, and it will be displayed whenever someone appears.

It started at 100 million spirit beads, but within seconds it became 110 million spirit beads, then 120 million spirit beads, and slowly began to increase rapidly.

After all, this is 1 million top-grade divine crystals. You should know that a large top-grade divine crystal mine can only yield 1 million crystals, a small one yields 100,000 crystals, and a medium one yields 500,000 crystals.

......

Chen Ping watched the price skyrocket with satisfaction. That's right, the 1 million top-grade divine crystals were his. The price of one or two crystals might not be high, but 1 million top-grade divine crystals was the lowest price he had ever seen before. After all, the highest record was only 40,000 top-grade divine crystals.

Soon, the price on the auction stage soared to 384 million spirit pearls, but the price continued to rise, although not as rapidly as at the beginning, it was still not slow.

After all, top-grade divine crystals are extremely rare. Destroying an island to obtain an island treasure chest doesn't necessarily guarantee a top-grade divine crystal mine resource, and you might even have to pay a fine. Islands in high-level sea areas are incredibly expensive.

As Chen Ping ate the Wasteful Divine Fruit, he chuckled as he watched the price steadily rise. Not bad, not bad at all, it had already broken 1 billion. Normally, it wouldn't sell for this price; it would only fetch around 500 million at most.

After reaching 1 billion spirit pearls, the speed slowed down. In the end, 1 million top-grade divine crystals were sold for 1.121 billion spirit pearls.

Lilisa: "Hmm~ Let's congratulate VIP number 147 on the 2nd floor for successfully winning the first auction item, clap clap clap!!!"

The tall, succubus on stage clapped her delicate hands, offered a few words of congratulations with a smile, and then began to present the second item for auction. Before the guests' enthusiasm had even subsided, she swiftly shifted everyone's attention in a highly rhythmic manner.

One by one, the items were brought to the auction stage, each with a price several times higher than the original.

In this situation, Chen Ping couldn't help but stroke his chin. It seemed he was going to have to spend a lot of money, since the auction included two kinds of resources that weren't available on the islands and were of top quality. He was determined to get his hands on them.

After all, one is a spiritual plant resource, which Hua Xiao and Ling Nana will surely be happy to buy. The other is a divine-level mineral vein, Mo Jin Silk Ore, which is a material of the level of a main god, and Huo Huo will definitely like it.

But the price is definitely not cheap. After all, this kind of thing is a necessity. Spirit plant resources are okay, but for black gold thread ore veins, there are many competitors. No major power can do without it.

There are over a thousand items in this auction, so Lilysa will only personally introduce the most expensive ones; the attributes of the rest will be displayed directly on the auction stage, leaving the guests to decide for themselves.

As time goes on, the number of items displayed on the auction stage is decreasing.

Hmm, Chen Ping couldn't help but wiggle his butt. It was his auction item again. This was a superior abyss artifact, a long spear. Its effects and power were decent, but it was a bit ugly.
