Chapter 432 Pure-blooded Demonic Beast
As the auctioneer finished speaking, the atmosphere in the entire hall instantly became tense and heated, as if even the air had frozen.
The light slowly focused on the tray in the auctioneer's hand, which was covered with a thick layer of red silk, making people curious about what kind of rare treasures were hidden underneath.
Guests in the hall craned their necks, eager to get a glimpse. Some whispered, speculating about the identity of the mysterious item, while others held their breath, afraid to miss even a single detail.
A hint of curiosity flashed in Changsun Xiao's eyes. Although he was not very interested in this auction, he couldn't help but be infected by the atmosphere at this moment.
"Mysterious lot?" He poured a glass of wine and drank it in one gulp. "I hope it's not a gimmick."
Someone couldn't help but exclaim, "Could it be that this last lot is even more valuable than those ten divine-level elixirs?!"
The auctioneer kept the audience in suspense. "What could be the source of the divine-level elixir? Why don't you take a guess?"
Just as everyone was whispering and guessing what this thing might be, a smile flashed in the auctioneer's eyes, mixed with a hint of worry about their future emotions.
Suddenly, the auctioneer pulled back the red silk, revealing a magical egg emitting a cyan glow. Under the light, the magical egg emitted a captivating glow, seemingly illuminating the entire hall.
The first floor hall fell into silence, and some people asked in surprise, "What is this? A monster egg?!"
"Yes, this is the last lot."
After all, there aren’t many knowledgeable people on the first floor, but it’s different on the second floor where many powerful forces and strong men gather.
The atmosphere in the private room on the second floor instantly reached a boiling point. Under the heavy breathing gazes of the people on the second floor, the monster egg shone as brightly as a star.
The cyan light circulated, as if containing endless life force, "Bloodline of the Demonic Beast! And the bloodline is definitely not low!"
The people in the box on the second floor widened their eyes, some were surprised, some were confused, and some had greed flashing in their eyes.
They were surprised that a monster egg with pure blood would appear at an ordinary auction; they were puzzled as to why this monster egg would appear at an occasion like today; they were greedy because if the blood monster inside was a powerful offensive monster, then their strength would be increased by several levels.
This temptation is even greater than that of divine-level elixirs.
After all, god-level elixirs can only be regarded as a contingency plan when one is defeated by others, and as long as this demon beast breaks out of its shell and successfully enters the growth period, it will at least have the power of a peak nine-star spirit emperor.
Not to mention if it enters the mature stage.
The air seemed to freeze, leaving only the faint green light emitted by the monster egg, which was particularly eye-catching in the darkness.
On the auction table, the auctioneer's voice was low and magnetic. He gently stroked the monster egg as if he was stroking a rare treasure.
"This is an extremely rare and precious pure-blooded demon beast egg, personally appraised by Master Zhou Nanxiao. Its value is far beyond the reach of those ten divine-level elixirs."
As the auctioneer finished speaking, the atmosphere in the room suddenly tensed. Everyone's eyes were fixed on the glowing monster egg on the auction table, and it seemed as if even the air itself was trembling.
A moment later, an incredulous voice rang out, "Pure-blooded monster? It must be fake!!"
"That's Zhou Nanxiao! Every treasure he's handled is incredibly valuable! Furthermore, he's been an appraiser for fifty years now, and he's never made a mistake!"
The auctioneer chuckled, having anticipated the crowd's reaction. He smiled and said, "Everyone, this is indeed the pure-blooded demon beast Qingluan."
As the word "Qingluan" fell, the excitement in the venue receded like a tide, and was replaced by a dead silence.
Anyone who has read the mainland encyclopedia will know this name. This is the ancient pure-blooded magical beast Qingluan!
It has not appeared in Tianyuan Continent for thousands of years!
The last recorded case was five thousand years ago, when it was the natal contracted beast of a powerful man who directly broke through the continental barrier and went to the Continent of Ten Thousand Beasts.
It was rumored that the blue phoenix had just entered its growth period, but it already possessed supreme power comparable to that of the God Emperor!
The auctioneer's words were like a hammer, hitting everyone's heart. The monster egg seemed to suddenly possess endless magical power, attracting everyone's attention.
The monster egg emits a faint glow under the light. The light seems to have life, flowing slowly on the eggshell, as bright as a galaxy.
There seemed to be a mysterious force fluctuating in the air, making people hold their breath involuntarily.
On the second floor, whether it was Tianyu Palace, Jiuding Mountain, or Cangyan Sea, everyone stood up suddenly, their eyes fixed on the monster egg.
No matter how supreme their status was, there was a glint of disbelief in their eyes.
Chang Sun Xiao narrowed his eyes and took a deep breath, "Pure-blooded magical beast..."
An old man sitting in the front row of the first-floor lobby had an excited glint in his eyes. He stretched out his hand tremblingly, as if wanting to touch the monster egg, but then stopped in his tracks, as if afraid of disturbing something.
His face was filled with awe, yes, awe.
Even though the Qingluan in front of them was just a monster egg, everyone present could imagine that when it entered its growth period, its slender and beautiful figure would soar in the air, and its beautiful feathers would emit dazzling light.
In their imaginations, the blue phoenix egg cracked open, and a newborn blue phoenix broke free, flapping its wings and soaring high into the sky. Its figure was slender and beautiful, and each feather shone with an enchanting light, like a meteor in the sky, or a dazzling pearl.
The scene was so real, as if it was within reach, making people's heart beat faster.
If they were the masters of Qingluan...
Everyone began to have an irresistible fantasy in their heart. If they were the owner of Qingluan, then when Qingluan soared in the sky, they would stand on Qingluan's back and accept everyone's fanatical gaze.
Luo Li stood at the windowsill of the box, looking at everyone's greedy expressions and chuckled. They all knew how powerful pure-blooded monsters were.
But they seemed to have forgotten that this was not a growing monster with extremely strong combat power, it was just a monster egg.
Even if they could take a picture of the Blue Luan egg, they would have to protect the Blue Luan through its fragile infancy. During this period, could they really protect this monster egg that had not yet hatched?
The atmosphere in the auction hall became increasingly tense, as if one could hear everyone's heartbeats accelerating.
Luo Li's eyes were calm and cold as she quietly looked at the passionate bidders, whose faces were filled with the pursuit and enthusiasm for power.
After all, this is the pure-blooded magical beast Qingluan.
