60: Tianjianmen Chen Yi

As Li Xue's words fell, a maid approached the high platform, carrying a tray covered with red silk.

Li Xue then stepped forward, unveiled the red silk, and, with a beaming smile, loudly introduced it to everyone.

"Everyone, this is a Profound Grade Medium Grade Medicinal Pill, the Profound Breaking Pill! Taking one pill can increase a Yellow Martial Realm Perfection Martial Artist's chance of Breakthrough to the Profound Martial Realm by fifty percent."

"There are five pills in this bottle, packaged together for auction. The starting bid is three hundred thousand Low-Grade Spirit Stones. Bidding begins now."

Hearing this, Ling Feng couldn't help but curl his lips, thinking to himself.

"Isn't this just a watered-down version of the Realm Breaking Pill I got from the lottery? And my Realm Breaking Pill is only considered a Peak Yellow Rank Medicinal Pill by the System."

"This Profound Breaking Pill only has half the effect of the Realm Breaking Pill, yet its Medicinal Pill Rank is supposedly higher than my Realm Breaking Pill."

Watching the excited expressions of the crowd in the hall over the Profound Breaking Pill, Ling Feng couldn't help but find it amusing.

However, the auction hall at this moment presented a different scene.

The crowd in the hall was filled with awe. As expected of the Flying Cloud Commerce Guild's annual auction, it started with such a rare Medicinal Pill. It was truly a grand gesture.

If they could win the bid, their respective Family forces might be able to add several Profound Martial Realm Martial Artists, which would greatly enhance the Family's overall strength.

"Three hundred thousand Low-Grade Spirit Stones."

"Three hundred and ten thousand Low-Grade Spirit Stones."

"Three hundred and fifty thousand Low-Grade Spirit Stones."

..."Five hundred thousand Low-Grade Spirit Stones."

..."One million Low-Grade Spirit Stones."

In an instant, the leaders of various forces called out bids one after another. The price of the Medicinal Pill quickly reached a full one million Low-Grade Spirit Stones, which was already considered the highest price for the Profound Breaking Pill.

At this point, the auction hall became quiet, with almost no one continuing to bid.

Li Xue, standing on the high platform, saw this situation, which was common for her as an auctioneer for the Flying Cloud Commerce Guild. She then smiled and said loudly to everyone in the hall.

"Everyone, the price of the Profound Breaking Pill has now reached one million Low-Grade Spirit Stones. Is there anyone else who wishes to raise the bid?"

As Li Xue's words fell, the hall remained incredibly quiet, and no one raised the bid again.

"One million, going once."

"One million, going twice."

...After calling out the second time, Li Xue paused for a moment, scanning the hall. Seeing that no one intended to bid again, she then shouted loudly.

"One million, going third time."

"Sold! Congratulations to this Fellow Daoist for winning this Medicinal Pill."

Next up for auction is the second item, the cloud rain sword.

A maid came to the high platform, holding a tray. On the tray lay a sharp sword with a sky-blue hilt, encased in a sky-blue scabbard.

Li Xue then spoke loudly, introducing it to everyone.

"This sword is called the cloud rain sword. It was once the accessory used by the cloud rain sword King and is a genuine King Rank Low Grade weapon. You should know that the cloud rain sword King was once a King Warrior Realm Perfection Martial Artist. He certainly had opportunities to acquire higher-grade weapons, but he never replaced his personal sword, the cloud rain sword. This indicates that the cloud rain sword must have its extraordinary qualities."

"The starting bid for this item is five million Low-Grade Spirit Stones."

As Li Xue's words fell, the auction hall instantly erupted. Not only that, but many people in the private rooms on the second and third floors also couldn't sit still, showing interest in this item.

"King Warrior Realm, that's an absolute powerhouse! Such individuals hold significant status wherever they go in the entire Xuan Tian Province, and even in the entire Northern Region, they are considered high-tier Martial Artists."

One can imagine that a personal sword that even such a powerful individual was reluctant to replace could not be of poor quality.

Therefore, the moment Li Xue announced the starting price, many people throughout the auction hall immediately began to shout bids, vying with each other.

"Five million Low-Grade Spirit Stones."

"Hmph, to think of bidding on such a treasure with just five million Low-Grade Spirit Stones, you're dreaming! I bid six million Low-Grade Spirit Stones."

"Seven million Low-Grade Spirit Stones."

"Seven million three hundred thousand Low-Grade Spirit Stones."

"Eight million."

..."Eighteen million Low-Grade Spirit Stones."

"Twelve million Low-Grade Spirit Stones, does anyone else wish to raise the bid?"

As Li Xue's words just fell, a very young voice suddenly came from a private room on the second floor.

"My Wu Family of the Blazing Sun Dynasty bids twenty million Low-Grade Spirit Stones."

As this voice, seemingly declaring its Family, made its bid, the hall instantly became incredibly noisy, with various discussions breaking out.

"The Wu Family of the Blazing Sun Dynasty, I didn't expect someone from that Family to bid."

"You should know that the Wu Family is known as the number one force in the Blazing Sun Dynasty, so much so that even the Blazing Sun Imperial Family is far from being their match. This is all because they have a King Warrior Realm Old Ancestor overseeing them."

Some Martial Artists who knew about the Wu Family of the Blazing Sun Dynasty couldn't help but whisper to those beside them.

"Hmph, Wu Yu, I didn't expect it to be you from the Wu Family! But to think you can win this cloud rain sword with twenty million is simply wishful thinking."

"I hope everyone will give me some Face. Chen Yi of the Heaven Sword Sect from the Heaven Sword Dynasty bids twenty-one million Low-Grade Spirit Stones."

At this moment, an extremely resonant voice came from another private room on the second floor.

"Chen Yi, I have plenty of Spirit Stones, do you think I'm afraid of you? I bid twenty-two million."

"Twenty-three million."

"Twenty-...".

In Wu Yu's private room, just as he was about to speak loudly to bid, an old man beside him called out to Wu Yu in a hoarse voice, then slowly said.

"Yu'er, we have something even more important to auction. If we bid again, we will completely miss out on that item."

Hearing this, Wu Yu fell silent for a moment, then gradually calmed down, and honestly replied to the old man.

"I'm sorry, Grandpa, your grandson was too reckless and almost ruined the Family's important matter."

"It's fine."

Just as Wu Yu stopped bidding, Ling Feng, who was also in a private room, slowly spoke.

"I bid thirty million Low-Grade Spirit Stones!"

At this price, the entire auction hall instantly erupted in an uproar. It was the first time anyone had seen such a bid, raising the price by a full eight million in one go.

In the private room where Chen Yi of the Heaven Sword Sect was, he had originally thought that since no more sound came from Wu Yu's private room, he was determined to get the cloud rain sword. However, he didn't expect a sudden challenger to appear, and what's more, he raised the price by a full eight million in one go, not giving him any extra chance to bid.

It wasn't that he didn't have enough Spirit Stones, but if he spent all his Spirit Stones on this cloud rain sword now, it would be a loss if there were better and more suitable items later.

For a moment, Chen Yi couldn't help but angrily say.

"Kid, I'll remember you."

Hearing this, Ling Feng couldn't help but immediately mock him.

"What's wrong, threatening me? I'm not afraid of you."

"Hurry up, if you want to bid, then bid. Don't just talk nonsense here and pretend to be cool."

Seeing this, Chen Yi, who was in the private room at this moment, was even more furious to the extreme, but he couldn't do anything to Ling Feng. He could only rage ineffectively, constantly thinking about how to make Ling Feng pay the price.

At the same time.

Li Xue, on the high platform, saw that no one else was bidding, and then smiled and shouted loudly.

"Everyone, is there anyone else who wishes to participate in the bidding?"

"Thirty million, going once."

"Thirty million, going twice."

..."Thirty million, going third time."

"Sold! Congratulations to this Fellow Daoist for winning the cloud rain sword."

Next up for auction is the third item, its...
