Sophie solemnly closed the animal skin scroll, faced the crowd, and slowly began to speak.
"This is the second item in this auction, the most powerful technique from the era of the Human Ancestor."
"In every era, there will be countless emperors, but only one method can be considered the most powerful."
"Although this method only records the path to cultivation up to the Quasi-Emperor level, the path it contains is of profound reference value even to beings of greater stature."
"Starting bid: one million for a top-tier divine source"
"Each bid increase must be no less than 100,000 for top-grade divine resources."
"The auction shall now begin!"
As Sophie finished speaking.
"Ten million top-grade divine resources"
The dean of Shenhuang Academy spoke directly.
Upon hearing that the Dean of Shenhuang Academy had increased the price tenfold, some factions twitched at the corners of their mouths, feeling somewhat resentful.
They won't even get a chance to brag about it if they don't get involved.
Offering ten million top-grade divine resources directly, raising the starting point to this level, is simply outrageous.
Can't we still have fun?
However, the dean of Shenhuang Academy didn't care what they thought.
In his mind, the name of the ancestor of mankind was worth the price.
"Fifteen million top-grade divine sources"
With the Divine Wilderness Academy taking the lead, the Grand Elder of the Overlord Blade Holy Land was not to be outdone.
"Twenty million top-grade divine resources"
The Confucian Sword Master of the Heavenly Sword Holy Land wore a calm smile; he was quite interested in the laws of the Ancestor of Humanity.
"Thirty million supreme-grade divine resources"
A voice from the Hongwu Emperor resounded, carrying an air of supreme authority.
The Emperor of the Life and Death Dynasty immediately raised the price by another ten million for top-grade divine sources.
However, his demeanor was rather casual. The Ancestral Man's methods weren't as relevant to the Imperial Dynasty's ways as one might imagine; he was more concerned with whether he could seize the opportunity...
What he wanted was to take the opportunity to deplete the reserves of other forces as much as possible.
He had a feeling that the items in the upcoming auctions would be even more amazing!
"Thirty-two million top-grade divine resources"
Another ancient force raised the price.
"Thirty-five million top-grade divine sources"
The Dean of Shenhuang Academy spoke with a resolute expression.
"Since you are all so modest, then my Ancient God Sect will round it up."
"Fifty million top-grade divine resources"
The Grand Elder of the Ancient God Cult narrowed his eyes slightly and said with a smile.
Upon hearing this, the other factions' lips twitched slightly.
You fucking rounded it up and directly increased the price by 15 million for Divine Source?
Are you crazy?!
"Fifty-one million top-grade divine sources"
The dean of Shenhuang Academy was no longer as composed as before; he almost spoke through gritted teeth.
"Sixty million supreme-grade divine resources"
From the direction of the Heavenly Sword Holy Land, the Confucian Sword Master spoke calmly.
As a sacred-level lineage, it possesses the necessary foundation; its millions of years of accumulation are no joke.
In order to prepare enough divine resources, he even persuaded the Holy Lord and many patriarchs of holy lands to overdraw the share of divine resources that were originally intended as strategic reserves.
"One Hundred Million Top-Grade Divine Sources"
The entire starry sky was silent.
Even Sophie covered her red lips slightly, a look of surprise appearing in her eyes.
Who on earth would raise the price of a top-grade divine source by 40 million in one go? What kind of force is so inhumane?
With one hundred million top-grade divine resources at stake, many forces began to weigh the pros and cons of continuing the bidding.
"One hundred and ten million top-grade divine sources!"
The dean of Shenhuang Academy gritted his teeth and, under the close watch of many elders, chose to continue his desperate gamble.
If we can win the bid for the Ancestor's Method, even if we lose the right to bid in the future, it will be worth it!
"One hundred and fifty million supreme-grade divine resources"
That mysterious voice spoke once again, as if it were nothing more than a casual remark.
"Never mind, let's just wait for the next item."
The offer of 150 million top-grade divine sources seemed like the last straw that broke the camel's back. After some consideration, even the Heavenly Sword Holy Land, the Overlord Blade Holy Land, and the Ancient God Sect could only reluctantly decide to wait for the next item.
While it's still possible to bid, if one manages to acquire the Ancestor's Method, then no matter how good the subsequent items are, one can only remain a spectator.
Although the Human Ancestor's Method was the most powerful method of its time, it could only be cultivated up to the Quasi-Emperor level.
Which of these holy land-level lineages doesn't have an imperial scripture?
"One hundred and sixty million top-grade divine resources!"
The dean of Shenhuang Academy clenched his fists tightly, his breathing rapid, and bloodshot eyes clearly visible.
This scene made the elders of Shenhuang Academy and many of the academy's prodigies, who had come with them, stand aside in trepidation.
They had never seen the usually kind and respected dean lose his composure like this.
However, they also knew how important this method of the Ancestor of Humanity was to their Divine Wilderness Academy.
"Two hundred million supreme-grade divine resources"
The mysterious voice remained indifferent, as if the divine source were merely a series of numbers.
The dean of Shenhuang Academy seemed to have lived through countless years; his expression had become somewhat hunched, and a bitter smile appeared on his face.
Seeing this scene, some elders and students of Shenhuang Academy felt extremely sad. Some students handed their storage rings to the old man.
This scene quickly resonated with everyone, and almost all the students and elders handed their storage rings to the old man in front of them.
"Dean, this is all the savings we have with us."
"Let's raise the price again."
The dean of Shenhuang Academy looked at all the storage rings handed to him, his eyes welling up with tears.
Then he burst into laughter:
"The laws of our ancestors, but the outcome depends on human effort."
"With you all, our Divine Wilderness Academy truly prospers."
He then spoke loudly, his voice resounding throughout the entire starry sky.
"Our Shenhuang Academy, along with its many teachers and students, is making this final move."
"Two hundred and twenty million top-grade divine resources!"
Although the Dean of Shenhuang Academy had revealed all his cards, he had no regrets.
He knew that his Divine Wilderness Academy was out of the running in today's Divine Source Auction.
However, after today, his Divine Wilderness Academy will only become more and more prosperous!
"Two hundred and fifty million supreme-grade divine resources"
Facing the final slap from the entire Shenhuang Academy, the voice remained calm and unmoved.
"When did someone from the forbidden zone appear so early?"
"There should still be thirty years before the Great Conflict begins."
"But the restricted area is really rich."
The mysterious youth from the Ancient God Cult seemed to recognize the origin of the mysterious voice. His expression was somewhat puzzled, but it quickly turned into amazement.
Only a forbidden zone could be so indifferent to top-grade divine sources.
Over the course of countless years, he had also led the Great Emperor to pacify some declining forbidden zones, so he was naturally familiar with the situation of these zones.
Those restricted areas are incredibly rich.
With this in mind, the mysterious young man made up his mind that after this auction, he would go out and search for the treasure left behind in his previous life.
Ultimately, the Human Ancestor's Method was sold for 250 million top-grade divine resources.
"The laws of the Ancestor of Humanity have fallen into my hands!"
When the sound of the mallet striking the ground reached King Mu, a slight smile appeared on his lips.
