"Everyone, let’s bring out the finale of this auction." As the final auction item was brought out, the auctioneer excitedly introduced it: "This is a magical artifact, a genuine magical artifact."
"It was crafted by a grandmaster, with the abilities to ward off evil, calm the mind, and nurture the spirit. Long-term carrying not only ensures good health, but also extends life."
"Moreover, according to the grandmaster, it also has defensive capabilities, able to protect the carrier from a fatal damage once, but after that, the magical artifact will break."
"What? A magical artifact? Let’s go take a look."
"Oh my God, a magical artifact that can fend off fatal damage? Let’s hurry and see."
With the introduction from the auctioneer, everyone couldn’t sit still and rushed to the auction platform.
"Such powerful effects, just getting close makes one feel incredibly comfortable, it instantly lifts one’s spirits. This is unbelievable!"
"Before this, I have interacted with some so-called magical artifacts, but compared to this, they are utterly worthless—this artifact is at least a hundred times stronger."
Initially, these people were somewhat doubtful, but as they approached the artifact, they couldn’t help but exclaim.
Meanwhile, they were ecstatic internally, determined to acquire such a precious item at any cost.
With this mindset, these people excitedly returned to their seats, awaiting the start of the auction.
"Is it possible for such a magical artifact to exist in the world? This thing has such a powerful effect." Liu Xue also went to take a look and came back, speaking with shock.
In the midst of her astonishment, Liu Xue said somewhat dispiritedly, "But such things are surely expensive. I really want to buy one for you, but darn my impotence. Am I useless?"
"No way! You have always been my most amazing wife," Ye Feng smiled and consoled her.
Meanwhile, Ye Feng took out a jade bracelet, prepared to put it on Liu Xue.
"What’s this?" As soon as the bracelet appeared, Liu Xue was astonished, because she could feel the mystical effects from the bracelet, even stronger than the artifact on the platform.
Compared to the bracelet in front of her, the auction platform’s artifact was simply trash.
"Here, it’s for you. It’s truly a good thing, able to withstand five fatal damages, a hundred times more effective than what’s on the platform." As he put it on Liu Xue, Ye Feng smiled and explained.
The artifact on the platform was just something Ye Feng casually made to sell for money.
But Liu Xue’s is different; currently, there are only two such items, created by Ye Feng with great effort, and it possesses a powerful spirit gathering array.
With the spirit gathering array’s enhancement, even though Liu Xue won’t become a cultivator, her constitution will be much stronger than ordinary people.
"Where... did you get this?" Seeing Ye Feng’s gentle demeanor and hearing the bracelet description, Liu Xue was moved to near tears and hurriedly asked.
"I got it by accident. Initially, there were two pieces, I gave one to my sister, and the remaining one to you," Ye Feng casually used an excuse. Anyway, Liu Xue wouldn’t be able to access these things, so it should be easy to fool her.
"This thing should be very valuable. How about you wear it instead?" Hearing Ye Feng got it accidentally, Liu Xue didn’t even think as she prepared to take it off and hand it to Ye Feng.
"Listen to me!" Seeing Liu Xue care for him, Ye Feng was deeply touched but still said earnestly, "I’m so capable of fighting that there won’t be any danger."
"But you are different. As a gentle woman, you might face danger at any time. You must wear it. Otherwise, what would I do if something happened to you?"
Seeing Ye Feng genuinely concerned for her, Liu Xue was deeply moved and hugged Ye Feng, her heart filled with gratitude.
Originally, Liu Xue didn’t plan to accept it, but recalling Feng Jin’s previous incident, she agreed. She was indeed afraid another Feng Jin would bother her.
After their conversation ended, the auction officially began.
Whether it’s a good item or a bad one, no reserve price will be set.
Therefore, this magical artifact did not have a set reserve price, because the auction house was very confident that such a good item would never be sold at a low price.
"I bid one hundred million!" Sure enough, as soon as the auctioneer spoke, someone in the front row directly bid one hundred million.
"One hundred two million!"
"One hundred forty million!"
"One hundred sixty million!"
And with someone bidding, these people went crazy, prices continued to soar at an incredible speed.
"Two hundred eighty million!"
Soon, the price soared to two hundred eighty million, such a terrifying price made everyone gasp.
"This is simply like immortals fighting! Although we are interested in this thing, we don’t have the qualification to participate."
"Isn’t it? Didn’t you see the big shots in the first row, all red-faced from competing?"
"Yet it’s strange, how come the two in the front row center seem uninterested? How unscientific is that?"
People in the first row were busy bidding, while those behind discussed.
Some were puzzled why Ye Feng even seemed uninterested in bidding; the best seat in the front row center is generally reserved for the most powerful big shots, isn’t it?
If Ye Feng heard this, he would surely sneer at them: ’Am I crazy to buy back my own creations at high prices?’
Ye Feng was truly disinterested, yet someone explained forcefully, "Big shots usually make their move last, the center big shot is certainly holding back a big move, waiting for them to fight until tired and mortal, then make their move to seal the deal."
"Exactly! You’re brilliant, even able to think of this." The key is, such absurd claims somehow had people agreeing, all waiting for Ye Feng’s big move.
At the same time, the magical artifact’s auction price had already entered a new stage.
"Three hundred ten million!"
"Three hundred twenty million!"
"Four hundred million!"
Latter price increases became smaller, yet prices relentlessly climbed.
Seeing the price already breaking through four hundred million, Xu Hong behind was grinning ear to ear: "Ha ha! I knew it would certainly work here; won’t Uncle praise me now?"
Yes, Xu Hong did it all to earn Ye Feng’s praise.
Should Xu Hong receive a word of praise from Ye Feng, he would have something to show off to his other two brothers for a long time.
Moreover, Xu Hong didn’t expect that four hundred million was just the beginning.
Once the price hit four hundred million, it kept rising, shocking Xu Hong.
"Five hundred million!"
"Five hundred ten million!"
"Five hundred eighty million!"
Indeed, the price ahead had soared to five hundred eighty million.
Some people were really wealthy, willing to spend such staggering amounts for the magical artifact, leaving Ye Feng somewhat surprised.
Ye Feng was curious whether the price might break through one billion. If it did, how much would the ones Ye Feng made be actually worth?
