85: Chapter 85 Ice Heart Grass Makes its Debut

Chen Xuanfeng had been scammed heavily; this was undoubtedly the biggest "surprise" of this auction.

In the following rounds of the auction, Private Room No. 3 in the Heaven section fell into a deathly silence, and not a single sound came from it again.

Clearly, that young master of the Chen family was currently tasting the bitter fruit of regret alone for his own stupidity just moments ago.

And Gu Yan, likewise, did not make another move.

He was like the most patient hunter, quietly lying in wait, anticipating the appearance of his true prey.

Time slowly slipped away amidst such bidding that was at times intense and at times dull.

Finally.

When the final round of ordinary auction items on the high platform had settled.

The old man presiding over the auction, Great Master Duobao, who had always worn a professional smile, revealed an unprecedented expression of solemnity and excitement for the first time!

He took a deep breath and, facing the entire venue, announced in a high-pitched, ritualistic voice:

"Everyone!"

"What follows is the final, and most highly anticipated part of this auction..."

"The grand finale!"

Whoosh!

The atmosphere of the entire venue was instantly ignited!

Everyone's spirits were suddenly lifted!

They knew that the real show was about to begin!

"Please welcome the first grand finale item of our auction!"

Amidst Great Master Duobao's inflammatory voice.

A graceful maidservant carefully walked onto the high platform, holding with both hands a jade box carved from a single piece of unknown white jade that emitted a faint chill.

As soon as the jade box appeared.

A faint chill slowly began to spread from the high platform to the surroundings!

Some Cultivators who were nearby couldn't even help but shiver!

Everyone's eyes were fixed firmly on the jade box!

Their eyes were filled with undisguised... burning heat! And greed!

"Presumably, many well-informed Fellow Daoists have already guessed what this item is."

A mysterious smile appeared on Great Master Duobao's face.

He didn't keep them in suspense any longer.

Instead, he stepped forward personally, under the gaze of everyone holding their breath.

He slowly opened... the lid of the jade box!

Boom!!!!!!

At the very moment the jade box was opened!

A visible, extremely dense white chill, like a volcanic eruption, suddenly surged from the small jade box into the sky!

This chill was domineering to the extreme!

With a nearly arrogant posture, it instantly swept across the entire auction venue!

The air temperature dropped abruptly!

Inside the hall, the flames of the wall lamps that had been burning brightly were actually pressed by this chill, making "hissing" sounds, and their light dimmed by a few degrees!

On the tables, the surfaces of the cups filled with Spirit wine and fine liquor were covered with a thin layer of white frost at a speed visible to the naked eye!

Some Cultivators with lower cultivation felt as if they had instantly fallen from the sweltering summer into the depths of winter! Their teeth began to chatter uncontrollably!

"Such... such an astonishing chill!"

"What... what kind of Heaven And Earth Treasure is this?!"

Below, sounds of gasps echoed throughout the venue!

Inside Private Room No. 1 in the Heaven section.

The moment Leng Yuechan felt the familiar, homologous, extreme cold Qi, her body, which had always been as calm as an ancient well, suddenly trembled violently!

Her cold Phoenix eyes stared fixedly at the jade box on the high platform!

Her breathing became rapid!

Subconsciously, she clenched her fists, and her neatly trimmed nails dug deeply into the tender flesh of her palms due to the excessive force!

It's it!

Definitely... it's it!

The only hope to heal her Dao Foundation injury!

The ice heart grass!

Gu Yan felt the unprecedented emotional fluctuation of the woman beside him.

He reached out and gently covered her small hand, which had turned white from being clenched in excitement, and cast an assuring look at her.

On the high platform.

The chill that had surged into the sky finally slowly dissipated.

The treasure inside the jade box was finally fully revealed before everyone.

A unique small grass, crystal clear throughout, as if carved from the purest ten-thousand-year profound ice.

It was only three inches tall and had three leaves.

Each leaf was as thin as a cicada's wing, and mysterious cold Qi seemed to be slowly flowing upon them, emitting a dreamlike halo.

It was stunningly beautiful, like the most perfect work of art!

"Mysterious Grade High Grade Spirit Medicine — ice heart grass!"

Great Master Duobao's voice was filled with endless passion and pride!

"This grass grows in the core of the ten-thousand-year profound ice mountain range in the extreme north and only matures after a thousand years! Its nature is extremely cold, and it is a top-tier Saint Grade healing treasure in the world!"

"Especially for those Fellow Daoists who Cultivate ice-attribute Cultivation Techniques or have a special Physique, this item has the miraculous effect of... Heaven-Defying life-changing!"

"Whether used to repair a damaged Dao Foundation or directly refined to break through a Bottleneck, it will be your... best choice!"

"No more nonsense!"

He scanned the entire venue, took a deep breath, used all his strength, and shouted loudly:

"One stalk of ice heart grass!"

"Starting bid..."

"Thirty thousand!"

"Low-Grade Spirit Stone!"

"Each bid increment must not be less than... one thousand!"

Thirty thousand!!!

This astronomical price, high enough to make 99% of the Cultivators present despair, exploded in everyone's ears like a thunderclap!

After a brief, deathly silence, the entire venue completely...

Boiled over!
