Heaven Slaughter Stars - C105
The other competitors also shut their mouths. This price had already exceeded their expectations, they were not the only one, there was a huge clan or sect behind them, and with so much money thrown in, how could they maintain the normal operations of the clan or sect?
“Five million top grade spirit stones going once, five million top grade spirit stones going twice, five million top grade spirit stones going thrice, sold!” Qu Yi’s voice was trembling. A five billion deal, a record that had been set in his hands for hundreds of years.
He realized that he had thought a bit wrongly. In fact, the powers in the mortal world were also very rich. Many times, there were really many things that could be left behind after tens of thousands of years of inheritances.
At this time, the atmosphere in the auction house reached its peak, and many people used different eyes to look at the Miao Family woman from the South Lake Region. One must know that the people who were competing for the map of the Heavenly Dragon’s Tomb were the top families, families, and sects of the Sky Martial Empire and even the surrounding empires.
Furthermore, there were also some hidden factions that had no intention to bid at all, as they only wanted to buy and sell without any cost. However, this lady from the Miao Family still looked indifferent. She seemed fearless, and it was likely that she had quite a powerful backer.
After resting for a while, Qu Yi went back onto the stage and said, “Next is the last item, the high-grade Spirit Weapon, the Cyan Cloud Sword. Who would be able to win against such a divine weapon? Let us wait and see, please go up to the Cyan Cloud Sword.”
Qu Yi walked down from the auction stage, and the auction stage that he was standing on released a cracking sound. A crevice opened up, and at the same time, a stone stage rose up slowly from within.
First revealed was a layer of seven-colored flowing light, and then a green-colored sharp sword enveloped by the seven-colored flowing light appeared in front of everyone’s eyes. That was the high-grade spirit weapon, Cyan Cloud Sword that Xuanyuan Zilong had taken out to auction.
It was unknown if it was due to the attention of too many people that Greencloud Sword let out a soft hum, but a sharp aura pounced towards them. Everyone’s breath froze, their faces filled with shock; this Greencloud Sword that was silently placed there could actually automatically emit such an aura.
The Cyan Cloud Sword looked simple and unadorned. Aside from the Cirrus imprints blossoming on its blade, there were no other inscriptions or decorations. However, the two blades looked extremely sharp and had a terrifying killing power.
“The starting price of the Cyan Cloud Sword is five million top grade spirit stones. Let the bidding begin.” Qu Yi announced loudly. The initial price of the Cyan Cloud Sword was equivalent to the price of the map of the Sky Dragon’s Tomb.
Of course, this price might seem high, but if it were mid-grade spirit crystals, it would only be fifty pieces. The difference between them and the world of cultivators was quite large. However, in the mortal world, this kind of price was outrageous. However, the top powers fighting for the ownership of the Cyan Cloud Sword were at least rank 10, and none of them were willing to give up.
Especially with the largest Sect of the Tianwu Kingdom, the Wind Cloud Sect, entering the fray, the other factions would not let go. Why? If it was any other power or faction, they would have tried to buy or sell it after the event, but Tianwu Empire was part of the Wind Cloud Sect’s influence, and the Wind Cloud Sect ran this place like an iron bucket. If the Wind Cloud Sect got their hands on the food, they would first consider whether or not they would lose their life if they did not get the food.
If the Wind Cloud Sect was so powerful here, then there might be people who would question them. If the other sects were able to compete with them, then there might be people behind them as well.
The answer was that it was impossible. Once the other sects managed to get their hands on the sword, not only would the Wind Cloud Sect not take it, it was necessary to protect them from the main camp of the Wind Cloud Sect. Otherwise, all the powers in the world would target the Wind Cloud Sect. So for the other sects, as long as they safely leave the Wind Cloud Sect’s headquarters, they have the confidence to bring the items back.
“Ten million top grade spirit stones!” The Wind Cloud Sect elder’s face was dark as he clenched his teeth and pressed the bid button in front of him.
“Fifteen million top grade spirit stones.” Opposite to him was a huge merchant guild of the Tianwu Kingdom: Flying Immortal Palace. In terms of wealth, even the Wind Cloud Sect could not match up to them.
The elder sneered but did not raise the bid. Fifteen million top grade spirit stones was the bottom line of the Wind Cloud Sect, but the Flying Immortal Tower seemed to know their bottom line, so they directly placed the bid at fifteen million top grade spirit stones.
“Since you do not place my Wind Cloud Sect in your eyes, then don’t blame my Wind Cloud Sect for disregarding my morals.” The Storm Sect elder looked at the disciple beside him, who nodded and quietly left the room.
The sky was a little gloomy. The fiery red setting sun was blocked behind the iron-gray clouds. There was no wind in the sky, making it seem a little oppressive.
The inside and outside of the Qu Clan Auction House were surging with people, and from time to time, someone would spread the latest news about the auction. After the final auction price for the Tomb of the Heaven and the Cyan Cloud Sword had been set, there was even more heated discussion outside.
Xuanyuan Zilong and Zhao Jun left the crowd in silence and turned back to look at the surrounded Qu Family Auction House, slightly shaking their heads. He knew that this was the moment when the wave had truly started to surge.
This was also the beginning of the real game. The auction was only the beginning, how about the fun later? Xuanyuan Zilong was rather interested in this, but he was not prepared to participate in the robbery. These things were still too low-leveled and he was too interested in them. Of course, if they were automatically delivered to his doorstep, it would be different. At the same time, he was not the type of person to foolishly follow others and watch. He only wanted to know the outcome of the game, and he only needed to quietly wait for news. Thus, Xuanyuan Zilong chose to continue sightseeing.
“…”
Two hundred miles east of Tianwu Imperial City was the Cloudsoaring Mountain.
The genius shone brightly as a human figure shot out from the Valley of Hundred Flowers in the Jade Peak. After a few flashes in the air, he landed gracefully at the foot of the mountain.
“Xiao Xiao, you’re here.” The Wind Cloud Sect elder nodded at Xiao Xiao, who was still wearing her veil.
“Elder, I wonder what the Sect Leader has to say?” Xiao Xiao asked indifferently.
“This is the sect master’s sealed order. Take a look for yourself.” Elder Ye handed over a round jade cylinder that was the size of a finger, with a faint light flickering on it. It was indeed the jade cylinder used by the Wind Cloud Sect to seal the grand master’s orders, and there was a seal on it that could only be removed by the person receiving the order using their own blood.
“Xiao Xiao, don’t disappoint the Sect Master’s expectations of you.” With that, the elder from the Wind Cloud Sect disappeared in a flash.
Xiao Xiao frowned, why was the sect master’s order personally delivered by an elder? Could it be that there was something extremely important for him to do?
Without much thought, Xiao Xiao flicked her finger and a drop of blood dripped onto the jade cylinder. The jade cylinder flashed with a few runes and suddenly emitted a grayish-white fog. The fog seemed to have a mind of its own and quickly drilled into the wound on Xiao Xiao’s finger that was squeezing out blood and rapidly healing.
At the same time, layers of strange incantations began to surge toward Xiao Xiao’s ears. Xiao Xiao felt her mind violently shake, and was somewhat out of her control. Her mental strength seemed to have split apart as it began to tangle together, forming one strange pattern after another.
The Wind Cloud Sect’s elder who had already disappeared suddenly reappeared, laughing loudly at Xiao Xiao’s pained appearance. His laughter was as bewitching as a woman’s.
“If you are not an elder, then who are you?” Xiao Xiao asked, her back drenched in cold sweat.
The Wind Cloud Sect’s elder wiped his face, and his ordinary old face suddenly turned into the face of a beautiful young woman.
“Yao Ling’er, it’s you!” Xiao Xiao’s beautiful eyes narrowed.
“Of course it’s me, or what do you think? Hehe, if you have to blame something, you can only blame your stupidity. Now that you have been infected by my Charm Magic, you will no longer be you, so obediently be big sister’s puppet. ” Yao Ling’er laughed complacently.
“In your dreams.” Xiao Xiao shouted as she waved her delicate hand, sending a blue light straight into Yao Ling’Er’s face.
Yao Ling’er moved to the side and dodged, only to discover that Xiao Xiao’s body had already disappeared from where she stood, as light as smoke. Hmph, you still want to run? After being hit by my Charm Spell, even if you run to the ends of the earth, you won’t be able to escape from Demon Ling’Er’s palms. ” Yao Ling’er coldly snorted.
“…”
As the wind blew, a jade flute was placed between his lips. The melodious sound of the flute leisurely rang out, and Starlight Jun gently stood behind him, silently looking at him. His eyes were filled with respect and love.
At this moment, a puff of smoke suddenly shot over from afar and transformed into a green shadow that fell to the ground, trembling all the way until it trembled.
“It’s her!” Xuanyuan Zilong had naturally discovered someone long ago, but he didn’t go investigate. Now that he saw who it was, he was a bit surprised. How could Fairy Xiao Xiao from the Wind Cloud Sect be in such a sorry state? She seemed to have been tricked.
Xiao Xiao raised her head with much difficulty only to see a tall figure slowly descending from the sky. However, her pupils had already changed; she was unable to clearly see the appearance of the person in front of her.
“Charm Spell!” When Xuanyuan Zilong saw Xiao Xiao’s appearance, he was basically sure what was going on. This caster’s charm was much stronger than that of the Demon Eye Beast.
Xuanyuan Zilong placed his large hand on Xiao Xiao’s forehead. As his mind probed in, he couldn’t help but frown as he felt a gray colored energy continuously devour her consciousness. With a thought, he created a barrier in Xiao Xiao’s sea of consciousness and retreated, carefully sizing up the beauty in front of him. With a thought, he created a barrier in Xiao Xiao’s sea of consciousness and then retreated, carefully assessing the beauty in front of him.
Xuanyuan Zilong instinctively stretched out his hand to lift the veil, but just as he was about to touch it, he stopped, afraid that Xiao Xiao’s true appearance would ruin his current fantasies. The last thing he knew was that it was always the most beautiful, so he decided to give himself some space to imagine.
