504: Chapter 504 Mysterious Force

When Fang Bai's gaze swept over, Miss Ji Yue and the others instantly felt as if they were facing a great enemy.

They felt Fang Bai's killing intent!

But soon, Fang Bai withdrew his gaze and naturally placed the scabbard into the moon god ring.

Absorb Source Power!

The power amplification of the scabbard depended on the energy it devoured, and right now, the thing Fang Bai lacked least was Source Power!

After all, inside his moon god ring, there was a source vein!

He placed the scabbard upon the source vein, letting it frantically devour Source Power. If nothing went wrong, it should be able to light up seven bars!

When that time came, it would be one of his trump cards!

To him, this harvest was undoubtedly massive.

"Damned human!"

The killing intent in Ji Yuan's eyes was almost solidifying. If it weren't for the fact that he was waiting for information on the source heart, he would have attacked Fang Bai long ago!

Thinking of this, he suddenly looked at Yun Yi and said coldly, "President Yun, continue!"

Yun Yi smiled slightly. "Then, we shall proceed to auction the final item."

"And this item is exactly what everyone has been looking forward to... intelligence on the source heart!"

Boom!

In an instant, the entire venue was in an uproar!

The source heart!

That was a super supreme treasure!

A treasure produced from the very core of a source vein, it contained immense energy!

As for its effects, even if a Tenth Rank powerhouse devoured it, they could break through a minor realm!

Not only the audience in the stands, but the Tenth Rank big shots were also filled with anticipation.

At this moment, over a dozen figures suddenly appeared beside Yun Yi!

Every single figure was at least at the Quasi-Tenth Rank realm!

Vice President General Lei Jin also appeared in the arena.

This scene caused many people to be taken aback.

Yun Yi smiled slightly. "Everyone, do not be nervous. This is merely a precaution to prevent anyone from launching a sneak attack to snatch it."

Everyone understood; after all, it was a supreme treasure like the source heart.

Next, under everyone's gaze, a scroll appeared out of thin air in Yun Yi's hand.

Yun Yi smiled slightly. "Everyone, this is the map marking the location of the source heart. It was discovered by a martial artist whose team encountered an attack from a powerful exotic beast there. In the end, only he returned, and afterward, he drew this map."

Ji Yuan looked at him. "How can you be sure this map is real?"

Yun Yi smiled. "Of course it is real. I have already sent people to investigate. There are indeed massive Source Power fluctuations there, but... that place is too dangerous. Our people did not dare to venture deeper."

Elder Kong appeared in the arena. He looked at Yun Yi and said, "State the price."

Yun Yi smiled. "Although this map marks the location of the source heart, it is ultimately just a map, and there's no guarantee that other powerhouses don't already know about it. Therefore, the starting bid is one hundred source crystals."

One hundred!

That was too cheap!

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone felt a sense of unreality.

However, very quickly, the first person to bid called out, "One thousand crystals!"

It jumped tenfold immediately!

With someone starting it off, the bidding rose one after another, quickly reaching five thousand source crystals!

Once it exceeded this number, the people in the stands were powerless.

This was already their limit.

At this point, Elder Kong spoke slowly, "Ten thousand crystals."

"Heh... Ten thousand and one!" Ji Yuan sneered, looking at Elder Kong with a playful gaze.

It was starting again!

Ji Yuan was naturally still brooding over being set up by Elder Kong earlier.

Now, he was targeting Elder Kong in return.

Elder Kong glanced at him and then said, "Fifty thousand."

Ji Yuan's expression remained unchanged. "Fifty thousand and one."

"One hundred thousand!"

"One hundred thousand... and one!"

Ji Yuan looked at Elder Kong and grinned. "If you raise the price again, I'm going to demand a verification of your funds."

One hundred thousand crystals—even for his Ice Demon Clan, it was a very strained amount. He didn't believe Elder Kong had that kind of capability.

Elder Kong's face was grim, and then he said slowly, "Fifty thousand source crystals, plus one taboo artifact!"

A taboo artifact!

One must know that the scabbard earlier had auctioned for one hundred thousand source crystals. Of course, its true value might be less than that, but it was close enough.

Hearing this, a smile appeared on Yun Yi's face. "Acceptable."

Ji Yuan looked at Elder Kong and said indifferently, "Sixty thousand source crystals, plus one taboo artifact!"

Elder Kong narrowed his eyes and said slowly, "This old man does not wish to oppose the Ice Demon Clan. Must you truly do this?"

Ji Yuan sneered. "Coincidentally, you have already offended my Ice Demon Clan!"

Elder Kong was about to speak when a figure suddenly interrupted them. "I bid one hundred and fifty thousand source crystals!"

As soon as these words came out, everyone's pupils shrank!

Ji Yuan and Elder Kong's expressions changed, and they both looked in one direction.

And that was not where Fang Bai was, but another private box!

From beginning to end, that box had shown no movement. Only now did it call out its first price!

And its first bid was one hundred and fifty thousand source crystals!

Such financial power was inconceivable!

Ji Yuan frowned. "Who are you?"

The figure inside the box said with a smile, "Just a passerby, a nobody not worth mentioning."

A nobody?

How could someone who was treated as an honored guest be a nobody?

Moreover, the opponent's strength had certainly reached the Tenth Rank!

Ji Yuan was momentarily unable to read the situation.

On the other side, Fang Bai glanced toward that box. His greed had vanished, replaced by a touch of solemnity.

He could feel that the other party was not simple.

Clearly, the other party's strength was not below his own!

What was their origin?

Was it Yao Yuan of the Yao Mu Clan?

Yun Yi cleared his throat, drawing everyone's attention. "Everyone, this fellow daoist has bid one hundred and fifty thousand source crystals. Is there any price higher than this?"

Everyone fell silent.

At this point, whether it was Ji Yuan or Elder Kong, they could no longer produce such a high price!

One hundred thousand source crystals was already their limit.

Yun Yi looked toward Fang Bai.

The latter looked as if it had nothing to do with him, which left Yun Yi somewhat speechless.

"In that case, this map belongs to this fellow daoist."

A storage ring floated out from the box and flew toward Yun Yi.

Everyone looked on, their faces filled with shock and greed.

There really were one hundred and fifty thousand source crystals!

Yun Yi's expression was also somewhat excited.

Setting everything else aside, as long as he absorbed these source crystals, it would be enough for him to break through!

With that thought, he sent the map in his hand to the front of the box.

Ji Yuan and Elder Kong stared fixedly at the scroll, already considering making a move to snatch it!

Just then, a cold snort rang out, and simultaneously, an overbearing pressure enveloped the entire field!

Sensing this pressure, everyone showed looks of horror!

"Tenth Order Late Stage!"

Even Ji Yuan and the others turned pale with fright at this moment!

They hadn't expected a Tenth Order Late Stage powerhouse to actually appear!

A powerhouse of this level was already second only to the leaders of major forces!

What was the other party's origin?

At this moment, the box suddenly opened, and two figures walked out.

A young man in white stood with his hands behind his back, a composed smile on his face.

Behind him stood an old man, unremarkable and ordinary in appearance, but the pressure from earlier had come from him!

A mysterious force never seen before!
