Chapter 128 - 117 A Friendly Gesture from the Demon Beast Mountain Range!
"Now we begin the auction for the second item: a Calming Pearl, nurtured by heaven and earth, capable of calming the mind and keeping the spirit platform dust-free, especially beneficial for Cultivators, notably those above the Martial God Realm. The starting bid is 550,000 Gold Coins, with each bid increment over 50,000 Gold Coins. The bidding starts now—" the host announced with enthusiasm.
Immediately, figures from all sides competed in a spirited bidding war, none willing to be outdone.
As time went by, the atmosphere in the auction hall grew increasingly fervent, and under the host’s skilled presentation, one climax after another erupted.
On the auction stage, one after another precious auction item was continuously presented for sale: Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures, Demon Cores, Pills, Magic Artifacts, materials... a gamut of treasures, each unique and extraordinary, genuinely rare in the outside world.
Moreover, none of the auction prices for these items fell below 500,000 Gold Coins, commanding astronomical values.
However, those who qualified to attend this grand auction were hardly ordinary folks; each one wielded significant wealth and power.
Even some first-rate Martial God Realm experts from the top forces, whose fortunes could rival nations, bid without as much as blinking an eye, calling out bids in the tens and hundreds of millions of Gold Coins, breathtakingly, fearing regret should they miss out on the opportunity.
Shuangshuang watched with her tongue tied; she was just here to broaden her horizons, but witnessing the frenzied bidding of these heavy-hitters left her utterly dumbfounded.
Only Ye Chen maintained his composure, as he had experienced even crazier auctions in his past life.
The Xiafeng Royal Family also successively bid on several precious treasures, and Ye Chen took action as well. Leveraging Danxin Palace’s immense wealth, he bought the main ingredient for refining the Refining God Pill, the Nine Soul Heart Refining Grass, spending a total of 700,000 Gold Coins, which made him frown slightly.
Because the cost of refining the "Refining God Pill" was far more than the mere hundred thousand Gold Coins he initially imagined, it was many times more.
