Unfortunately, the superior abyssal artifact wasn't worth Lilysa's words. Her pink lips didn't even move; she simply raised her small hand, signaling the start.
After rounds of tense and exciting bidding, this superior-grade abyssal artifact was finally won by a mysterious buyer for 284 million spirit orbs. Chen Ping, who had been observing the entire process from his room, nodded to himself, thinking, "Not bad, a good price."
It's worth noting that, according to records, the highest price ever paid for a superior-level Abyss artifact was only around 150 million spirit orbs.
The auction proceeded in full swing, with various rare treasures and resources on display, drawing enthusiastic responses from the audience. When the spiritual plant resources that Chen Ping had been eagerly anticipating finally appeared on the auction stage, the atmosphere in the entire hall instantly became even more tense and heated.
The starting bid was set at 10 million spirit pearls, with each bid increment not less than 1 million spirit pearls. Chen Ping didn't hesitate to offer a high price of 20 million spirit pearls, demonstrating his determination to win. However, his bidding action did not deter other buyers; instead, it sparked an even more intense bidding frenzy.
Almost at the same time Chen Ping made his bid, another bidder quickly overtook him. Then, the price began to soar at an astonishing speed, like a silent war, with each bid gripping the hearts of everyone present. In just a few seconds, the price of this spiritual plant soared to 72 million spirit pearls, drawing the attention of everyone present.
Chen Ping wasn't surprised. To acquire this spiritual plant resource, it would cost at least one or two hundred million yuan. That's only because the effects of this divine-level spiritual plant aren't very good; otherwise, it would cost even more.
Soon, the price reached 149 million spirit pearls. Now it's increasing by 1 million at a time, and the rate of increase has slowed down considerably. However, even though it's slow, the price is still steadily moving towards 200 million.
Chen Ping immediately offered 200 million, and the price list remained silent for a few seconds before jumping again to 210 million spirit pearls.
Chen Ping curled his lips and then offered 210 million spirit pearls. No one bid higher, so he successfully acquired the spirit plant.
Good, one of our goals has been achieved.
The auction continued, and of the thousands of items up for auction, only about 300 remained.
......
Chen Ping sat comfortably on the sofa, contentedly calculating his gains from the black market auction. After rounds of fierce bidding, his dozen or so precious auction items had garnered a total of 4.273 billion spirit pearls—an extremely substantial fortune.
In this auction, Chen Ping valued the divine-grade spiritual plant and the divine-grade mineral vein most highly. To obtain these two rare treasures, he spent a total of 582 million spirit pearls. Among them, the competition for the divine-grade mineral vein was particularly fierce, and its transaction price was several times higher than that of the divine-grade spiritual plant, but this was within Chen Ping's expectations.
After all, the ore produced by this divine-grade mine is an indispensable key material for forging the main artifact. For any force, it is an important resource for improving strength and enhancing its foundation, which naturally arouses fierce competition among many buyers.
Chen Ping smiled with satisfaction. This haul was good, but he hadn't forgotten that he still hadn't sold the God King Path. This one was definitely the last one up, but he didn't know which number it was.
At this moment, the number of items up for auction has gradually decreased from three digits to two digits, indicating that the climax is about to begin. Everyone present held their breath, eagerly awaiting the appearance of the last few mysterious and precious items, especially the first ten items carefully arranged by the system. As is customary, these treasures are usually priceless, extremely rare, and top-tier items, and each appearance will ignite a fierce bidding war among the entire audience.
Chen Ping also had high expectations for the auction items arranged by the system.
As the number of items to be auctioned dwindled, the atmosphere grew increasingly tense. When only 13 items remained, the succubus auctioneer, Lilisa, once again drew everyone's attention. She gently clapped her delicate hands, gracefully turned her body, and slowly walked towards the center of the auction stage. Every step she took was as swaying and elegant as a dancer's, instantly captivating everyone's gaze.
Clearly, Lilisa will need to personally introduce the auction items that will be presented next.
Lilisa's charming voice echoed throughout the auction hall, her enchanting tone filling every corner with anticipation: "Oh dear~ time really flies! In the blink of an eye, we've reached the end of today's auction. But dear guests, please keep your enthusiasm high, because every item to be auctioned next is a carefully selected, priceless treasure. And I, Lilisa, will personally unveil their mysteries and guide you through the allure of these treasures."
As soon as Lilysa finished speaking, the hall erupted in discussion. Of the thousands of items up for auction, Lilysa had been mostly just sitting on the sidelines, except for the first item, a top-grade divine crystal, which was brought to the stage. Everyone had almost forgotten about her.
......
As soon as Lilisa finished speaking, the entire hall fell silent. Then, to everyone's astonishment, a gigantic egg radiating an aura of a supreme god appeared on the auction stage. This giant egg was astonishing in size, with a diameter of over a hundred meters. Its surface was inlaid with intricate and mysterious patterns, as if containing endless life force, and a faint golden glow flowed endlessly across the eggshell.
Faced with such a stunning sight, Lilysa maintained her signature charming smile and introduced the distinguished guests in detail: "Next, I will present to you an extremely rare and precious ancient mythical beast—the egg of the Ancient Chrysanthemum Chicken."
Legend has it that once successfully hatched, it will possess the strength of a superior god. As time passes, the fully grown Gu Juji will be able to ascend to the level of a main god, and in middle age, it may even reach the supreme level of a god-king. Such a powerful divine beast is undoubtedly a valuable asset that every force dreams of.
As she introduced the auction, the entire auction hall erupted in excitement once again. The eyes of many bidders gleamed with fervent greed, eager to plunge into this unprecedentedly fierce bidding war.
Seeing the greedy looks below, Lilysa smiled alluringly and continued, "Hmm~ By the way, this ancient chrysanthemum egg will hatch in about 1000 years. That means if you all bid on it, your family will receive a powerful guardian beast a thousand years from now!"
