The War God’s lips curled into a smile as he said, "They are all under my control. Since they dared to co today, not a single one will leave!"
Although the War God’s tone was very calm, Ye Luo had already anticipated that these people from the Demon Palace would face a dire fate.
After all, having caught the attention of a respected Martial Artist of the ninth level of the Spirit Sea Realm, one could definitely expect a grim end.
Even though Ye Luo’s Clairvoyant Eye could not penetrate the War God’s strength, according to the judgent of Xiao Ba and Xiao Ling, the two Instrunt Souls of the King’s Tool, the War God’s strength was at least that of the ninth level of the Spirit Sea Realm.
Such strength already stood at the pinnacle of the world. The level above, the Controlling Qi Realm, was inhabited by those who were hidden from the world, seldom seen by most in their entire lifetis.
Just then, the auction suddenly quieted down as a woman, flanked by four n dressed in black, walked slowly onto the central auction stage.
Moreover, she had deliberately opened a slit in the middle of her chest, revealing a glimpse of snowy white skin, which was quite provocative. Her delicate and beautiful face, her phoenix-like eyes carrying a hint of enchanting charm, and her mature, alluring presence srized the onlookers.
This woman’s strength had even reached the fifth level of the Saint Realm, and the four n in black by her side each harbored the strength of the first level of the Hua Yuan Realm.
As the woman stepped onto the auction stage, the four n in black positioned themselves around her as guards, likely to protect whatever was being auctioned.
"The forces behind this auction today are really not simple," the War God observed, muttering to himself.
The attendees at the auction were surprised to see such an attractive woman appear, with so of the n already ogling her with wide eyes, and so even with covetous looks.
"Thank you all for coming to the Sky-Heaven Auction House to participate in today’s auction. My na is Xuan Ruoyan, and I will be your auctioneer for today. This is my first ti serving as an auctioneer, so if there is any oversight, please forgive ,"
she said, bowing slightly to everyone present, her voice soft and her attitude humble, which earned her the admiration of many.
However, the more powerful experts present sensed that this woman was no ordinary person; after all, a woman with the strength of the fifth level of the Saint Realm couldn’t possibly be simple.
"Alright, everyone must have been looking forward to today’s auction for a long ti, so I won’t waste any more ti and will now officially start the auction,"
"As you all know, today’s auction is focused on the resources for Martial Artists, and the items for auction are all of substantial use to Martial Artists. Therefore, aside from most items that will be auctioned for money,"
"the remaining few valuable items cannot be bought with just money, but instead require a trade for other precious items such as elixirs, spiritual dicine, spirit stones, and the like. Please be clear about this,"
Xuan Ruoyan stated before gesturing with her hand, prompting another woman carrying a tray to step forward.
"Let’s start with the first item of our auction today,"
she said and lifted the red cloth on the tray to reveal a palm-sized stone emitting a misty spiritual energy.
"Ladies and gentlen, this is a dium-grade Spirit Stone, and I assu you are all aware of its use. It is greatly beneficial for Martial Artist cultivation. The bidding starts at one million with each incrent of three hundred thousand!" Xuan Ruoyan declared.
Imdiately, many people on the first floor began to bid, and in the blink of an eye, the price soared above four million.
In today’s world, where nature’s spiritual energy is scarce, Martial Artists mostly rely on elixirs and spiritual dicine for cultivation, along with spirit stones, which are also divided into lower, dium, and superior grades, as well as top-grade spirit stones.
A dium-grade Spirit Stone could allow an early-stage Innate Realm Martial Artist to reach the Innate Peak Stage in a short ti, hence there was fierce competition among those present, mainly from the major secular families and powerhouses seeking such a stone.
However, the individuals in the private rooms on the second and third floors did not bid at all, obviously deeming such a dium-grade Spirit Stone beneath their interest.
Ye Luo, too, was uninterested in a dium-grade Spirit Stone. At his current strength, a dium-grade stone was of no use—only a superior-grade or top-grade Spirit Stone with its spiritual energy might improve his strength significantly.
As for the others with him, he could refine elixirs for them to consu, which was a better option than absorbing the energy from a Spirit Stone. Thus, he did not participate in the bidding.
Soon, the dium-grade Spirit Stone was sold for ten million.
Those present today were either skilled Martial Artists or wealthy individuals, none lacking in funds.
"Good, now let’s present our second auction item!"
Xuan Ruoyan spoke again as another item was brought up, this ti a Yellow Rank fourth-grade Qi Recovery Pill that also stirred a frenzy, ultimately being snatched up for thirty million by Sun Quan of the Sun Family.
Watching a fourth-grade Yellow Rank Qi Recovery Pill sell for thirty million made Ye Luo’s heart skip a beat in shock; indeed, elixirs were a lucrative business. If he were to auction the elixirs he had refined, he would probably beco an overnight billionaire, much faster than making money by running a company.
"Hmm, not a bad idea," Ye Luo thought to himself.
The auction continued, featuring a series of Yellow Rank elixirs, centuries-old spiritual dicines, as well as so low-level Cultivation Techniques and Martial Techniques, all of which stirred up a frenzy among the attendees.
Several major families from the Capital City joined the bidding frenzy, but the great powers from the Hidden Sects remained inactive as these items held little appeal to them.
"Now, let’s proceed to our thirteenth item for auction, which is a bit unusual, because even we do not know what it is,"
Xuan Ruoyan began, uncovering the red cloth on the auction podium to reveal a green jade Fragnt in front of everyone. The Fragnt seed lustrous and smooth, and was faintly exuding an extraordinary aura. However, at a glance, it seed to be just a regular piece, with no apparent value.
"Isn’t that just a piece of jade Fragnt? What’s the use of that?"
"Yeah, could a fragnt actually be a treasure?"
