265: Chapter 265 The Auction Begins, Flying Combat Technique: Hidden Bat Blood Wings

First-Class VIP Room!

The room was furnished with tables and chairs, upon which were placed exquisite tea sets and fresh spiritual fruits, such as Vermilion Fruits and Fire Dragon Fruits...

The value of these spiritual fruits alone was exorbitant.

"Master, to enter a VIP room, besides having the qualifications of a powerful faction, one must auction items worth over two million in the auction house to obtain a Tier 3 VIP card."

Liu Ling spoke respectfully, appearing to have some knowledge of the auction.

Two million? For most people in the Black-Corner Region, this price was an unreachable sum.

This could be seen from the gold coins given by Wang Qian.

On the Fighting Qi Continent, money was very hard to come by; otherwise, some Great Dou Masters, Dou Spirits, and even Dou Kings in the Black-Corner Region would not have been reduced to working as assassins.

Of course, one profession was an exception to this: the Alchemist.

The conditions to become an Alchemist were extremely harsh, which restricted ninety percent of those who longed for it.

It was precisely because of this that the Black-Corner Region was so chaotic.

Inside the first-class VIP room.

Hun Tiandi raised an eyebrow; just as he sat down, he sensed a cold gaze land on him. It was Xiao Yujie, the leader of the Xiao Sect, whom he had seen at the entrance earlier.

His gaze examined him with curiosity, carrying a hint of desire in his eyes.

"Master, this Xiao Sect leader, Xiao Yujie, is likely targeting you. He is the son of the Xiao Family's third brother, Xiao Li. He possesses Fire-attribute Fighting Qi and is extremely bloodthirsty. He caused a great disaster in the Xiao Family and was driven to the Black-Corner Region..."

Liu Ling spoke as if reciting family treasures, informing Hun Tiandi.

Hun Tiandi frowned slightly. Xiao Li? He took a deep breath, closed his eyes, and quietly waited for the auction to begin.

"Sect Leader, what is it?" The cold, handsome young man withdrew his gaze as the elder behind him asked in a low voice.

"Nothing. I just find that guy a bit strange. To think he is in a first-class VIP room; it's truly interesting..." Speaking up to this point, Xiao Yujie gave a ruthless smile.

He immediately stopped thinking about it and looked toward the jade platform in the hall, saying, "I wonder if that information is true..."

Ding-dong!

Half an hour later, a crisp bell chime resonated throughout the entire auction house. Hearing the bell, Hun Tiandi suddenly opened his eyes, and immediately, a cacophony of noise, like thunder, swept in.

Hun Tiandi looked at the jade platform, where a white-haired auctioneer stood smiling before him.

"It has finally begun."

Looking at the packed auction hall, he murmured, his pitch-black eyes flashing with brilliance.

Countless gazes landed on the auctioneer.

"Hehe, everyone, I'm sure you are all impatient from waiting, so let us begin immediately!" The old man in fine clothes spoke with a smile.

As an experienced auctioneer, he naturally knew what the people below wanted to hear and see.

Start directly to avoid wasting time.

"The annual auction hosted by our Eight Gates will certainly not disappoint you all!" The old man clapped his hands and announced loudly, "I declare, the Black Seal City auction, now begins!"

As his voice fell, a light burst forth on the jade platform. In front of the white-haired auctioneer, a pitch-black spear emitted a dark luster under the lights.

One could see the patterns on the spear and the energy fluctuations on the spear tip.

Clearly, this was a Magic Core weapon forged by a master.

"This spear is named Meteor. It is forged from meteorite iron and is extremely sharp. It is inlaid with a Tier 5 Water-attribute Magic Core. If used by someone cultivating Water-attribute, its power will surely be even greater."

"A divine weapon is an essential tool for traveling abroad. If anyone is interested, feel free to bid your gold coins. The starting price is one hundred thousand. Please, everyone!"

The auctioneer spoke calmly, gripping the spear handle and channeling Fighting Qi into it, causing faint water ripples to emerge.

"A Magic Core weapon?" He looked at the black spear and said indifferently, having no great interest. Currently, he was not lacking in weapons on his person.

The Nether Killing Sword, the emperor-slaying blade, the ten thousand soul banner...

Because he did not participate in the bidding, he let Liu Ling purchase the black Meteor spear.

Actually, the item was not important; what was important was that the plan had begun!

For those who fight and kill, a handy weapon is like a fine medicine cauldron in the hands of an Alchemist; it is both a tool for making a living and a tool for survival.

Bidding had already begun continuously.

After lasting for a few minutes, under Hun Tiandi's instruction, it was successfully purchased by Liu Ling for two hundred thousand gold coins.

After the first item was auctioned off, various dazzling items began to appear one after another, radiating light.

Such as precious armor, Dou Techniques, cultivation methods, medicinal pills, herbs... and there was even something shocking: a young Snake-Person girl, around fourteen or fifteen years old with a hot figure, was pushed onto the auction stage.

With a timid little face, she looked panic-stricken at the crowd below.

This caused the animals below at the auction to bid fiercely, eventually reaching two hundred and fifty thousand gold coins, making the auctioneer on stage grin from ear to ear.

Liu Ling purchased the Snake-Person girl; since the auction began, Liu Ling had been bidding frequently.

He had already spent nearly a million gold coins. From the beginning until now, no matter who in the auction hall made a bid, Liu Ling always outbid them.

The people participating in the auction in the hall were becoming impatient.

"Who exactly is this mysterious Mr. Yun Tian? Is he here to cause trouble at the auction?"

Yuan Tian, on the top floor, looked at the intelligence information in his hand, which recorded what Yun Tian had done since arriving in Black Seal City and where he was staying.

Relying on the background of the Eight Gates, they had found it out clearly in Black Seal City.

Now, since the auction began, no matter the price or value of the items, Hun Tiandi in the first-class VIP room paid for everything in full.

Such immense financial power made Yuan Tian dare not stop him for the moment, and he could only treat him as a wealthy second-generation heir.

In the early stages of the auction, there were no particularly attractive items that ignited the whole venue, but the continuous bidding from the first-class VIP room attracted the attention of those powerful factions with vast financial resources.

"Who exactly is in the first-class VIP room? Such a big spender at the auction."

Su Mei licked her red lips, her eyes glimmering as a bright light appeared in them.

"Sect Leader, should we check him out?" A woman behind her said coldly.

"No need. Today's auction promises to be a good show!" A mysterious smile appeared on Su Mei's fair cheeks.

The person in the VIP room kept bidding, regardless of the value of the items, constantly sweeping up goods.

"Hmph, who exactly is it? Although these items are not of high value, he has already spent a million!"

Tie Wu of the Mad Lion Gang said in a deep voice, his burly body lost in thought.

Tie Wu looked careless, but in reality, he was rough on the outside and fine on the inside; otherwise, he would not have been able to stand firm in the Black-Corner Region.

"Elder Yue, wait until the auction ends, and send someone to investigate!" Xiao Yujie said coldly.

"Everyone, the next item to be auctioned is a rare flight Dou Technique. Because its production method has been lost, it is now extremely rare."

The auctioneer held a scroll in his hand and spoke calmly.

"Flight Dou Technique: Hidden Bat Blood Wings!"

The auctioneer moved his palm, unfolding the scroll to reveal it. Suddenly, a pair of shrunken blood-colored wings that looked eerie, evil, and ghostly appeared before everyone.

"As expected..."

This Black Seal City auction house did indeed have some good things. Looking at that pair of exquisite bat wings, a smile appeared on the corner of Hun Tiandi's mouth.
