"The starting bid for this item is three hundred drops of Nine-grade Immortal Marrow, with each increase not less than twenty drops," Qian Wanyue said.
"Three hundred and twenty drops!"
"Three hundred and forty drops!"
"Three hundred and sixty drops!"
...
The bidding continued incessantly.
Xu Nian curiously glanced at Leng Shui, who remained seated there without any expression on his face.
It seed he had no intention to place a bid.
"Haha, Brother Xu, you don’t need to look at him, this Divine Wine will definitely be Leng Shui’s, just don’t be shocked when he starts bidding."
Wei Feng said with a laugh.
Li Xiuyuan, Dugu Ling, and others laughed as well, their smiles carrying a hint of amusent.
Xu Nian was rather curious about how Leng Shui would bid.
"Four hundred and eighty drops!"
The number of bidders began to decrease, and a late-stage Immortal Sovereign directly offered four hundred and eighty drops.
"Five hundred drops!" soone followed up.
"One thousand drops!"
At this mont, a voice rang out.
The entire place fell silent instantly.
Those who initially intended to continue bidding were all stunned.
Xu Nian was also surprised as he looked at Leng Shui, with a face full of astonishnt.
From five hundred to one thousand drops in a single leap?
Isn’t this too fierce?
Even the Immortal Kings and Sovereigns were taken aback.
They all looked at Leng Shui, wanting to see who was bold enough to bid like this.
When they saw Leng Shui, the confusion in their eyes dissipated instantly.
"So it’s him, that madman."
"Indeed a madman, whatever he sets his sights on, he bids regardless of its actual worth."
...
Discussions arose all around.
In their view, while the Divine Wine was rare, it was worth at most a little over six hundred drops of Nine-grade Immortal Marrow.
But one thousand drops, that was entirely ludicrous.
"What do you think, Brother Xu, you see, this is how Leng Shui bids at auctions; if he wants sothing, he’ll bid without hesitation. For him, what he likes is priceless," Wei Feng said with a smile.
"Yes, compared to this madman Leng Shui, we are all ordinary people!" Dugu Ling laughed.
Others nodded in agreent.
Hearing this, Xu Nian’s opinion of Leng Shui changed significantly.
What he likes is priceless, such an open-minded spirit is truly unmatched by few.
"Congratulations to custor number fifty-three, this Divine Wine is now yours," Qian Wanyue said with a smile.
It was obvious she wasn’t too surprised by Leng Shui’s bid.
After all, this wasn’t the first ti this had happened.
"Brother Kuun Bin, your junior is truly a complete madman, acting as he pleases," Wu Hao said with a laugh.
Kuun Bin smiled slightly, looked at Leng Shui, and said with a smile, "His talent is very strong, our master once said he is expected to beco a god on his own, but unfortunately, he colluded with the Demon Clan and ended up in this situation, completely self-destructing his future."
"Haha, what use is talent, isn’t there a shortage of geniuses in the Immortal Realm? In the end, those who make it are mostly not the suprely talented ones, that’s why I’ve never fancied geniuses," Wu Hao scoffed.
"Senior, you shouldn’t say that, in my eyes, your talent is exceptional, and you are destined to rise in the Immortal Realm, how can you say geniuses are useless?" A female Immortal Venerable flattered from the side.
"Haha, you really are more and more eloquent, indeed, I am destined to rise in the Immortal Realm, but not because of talent, but through ans—ruthless thods are the key," Wu Hao scoffed.
Beside him, Kuun Bin also laughed.
He, too, wasn’t the most highly gifted, his talent paled compared to his junior Leng Shui.
Yet, Leng Shui was expelled from the sect, while he beca master’s most relied-upon disciple?
Jiang Shengtian, on the side, also sneered coldly.
"Yes, ans co first, Xu Nian, your talent is greater than mine, but ultimately, only the ones who survive are strong, so you’re still not better than ," Jiang Shengtian sneered heavily.
As if he had already envisioned the scene of Xu Nian dying miserably before him.
...
"Next up is the third auction item, a divine artifact material, according to records, this material is the top-grade divine artifact material known as Holy Snow Gold," Qian Wanyue announced.
"Divine artifact material? And top-grade as well?"
The people around were a bit surprised.
However, soon everyone shook their heads.
Even if the material is precious, what use does it have? No one in the Immortal Realm can refine divine artifacts; to them, it’s basically a piece of useless tal.
Even if collected, how can you use it if you ever ascend to the Divine World? Becoming a deity is elusive at best; it’s better to use your resources now to buy sothing beneficial for cultivation.
However, at this mont, Xu Nian’s eyes sparkled.
"Top-grade divine artifact material? Holy Snow Gold?"
He had seen this material in the comprehensive guide to artifact refining materials given by Emperor Ye Tian.
It is an extrely hard, yet highly flexible divine artifact.
This material is most suitable for crafting wind attribute divine artifacts.
Once forged into a sword, its sharpness could easily pierce divine armor of the sa grade.
Such a precious treasure, how could Xu Nian not be tempted?
Even if he can’t refine it now, once he restores the Divine Fire to its peak, it might not be impossible.
"Next, the auction for this item will begin, the starting bid is five hundred drops of Nine-grade Immortal Marrow, with each increase not less than thirty drops," Qian Wanyue announced.
"Five hundred drops? So expensive?"
Originally interested bidders shook their heads.
Spending five hundred drops on a stone they may never use seed too costly.
Even Wu Hao and others chose to pass.
It’s artifact refining material, not a divine artifact.
Moreover, for top-grade divine artifact material, finding a divine craftsman capable of forging it is virtually impossible.
Li Xiuyuan and others looked at Xu Nian, as if to say, Brother Xu, you’ve scored a deal again.
Xu Nian smiled and imdiately bid, "Five hundred drops."
Seeing Xu Nian bid, everyone was a little taken aback.
This guy seriously spent so many resources to buy a useless stone?
Even Qian Wanyue looked at Xu Nian in surprise.
In fact, she was already prepared for this item to go unsold.
After all, to Immortal Emperors in the Immortal Realm, top-grade divine artifact material is useless.
So Xu Nian’s bid made her undoubtedly curious.
Jiang Shengtian furrowed his brows, just about to bid when Wu Hao stopped him.
"It could be a trap, he might be trying to lure you in," Wu Hao said.
"Right, once you bid more, he might stop imdiately, making you spend five hundred thirty drops of Nine-grade Immortal Marrow," the female Immortal Venerable added.
Hearing this, Jiang Shengtian felt it made a lot of sense.
He glanced at Xu Nian and found the latter smiling back at him.
He beca more certain that Wu Hao’s words were correct.
Luckily, he almost fell for Xu Nian’s trap.
"Hmph, kid, you want to trap , but you’re still too green," Jiang Shengtian sneered coldly.
Seeing Jiang Shengtian looking smug and refraining from bidding made Xu Nian chuckle internally.
Indeed, Jiang Shengtian fell for it.
Indeed, Xu Nian intentionally provoked, aiming to make Jiang Shengtian believe it was a trap.
He didn’t want Jiang Shengtian to cause him additional loss of Immortal Marrow.
After all, he didn’t have much Immortal Marrow left.
As for hunting Jiang Shengtian and seizing it later, there were too many uncertainties, and judging by appearances, Jiang Shengtian couldn’t be killed just yet.
So it was best to get it first before anything else.
