"One point one billion!" Unfortunately, Lu Yuanfang was not prepared to give up at all. He squinted his eyes and said with a firm voice.
Others could not discern his emotions, but no one dared to underestimate Lu Yuanfang, a super old monster of the Eighth Layer of the Vaulted Extreme Realm! How many of such rank could be found in the entire Nan’e Ancient Capital?
Lu Yuanfang’s financial power was even more frightening. Although he was alone, the fact that everyone knew he had personally annihilated no less than five upper-tier families spoke volumes of how many Black Xuan Stones he must have. Lu Yuanfang was indeed wealthy and imposing.
"One point two billion." Wei Lin’s voice turned somewhat cold, feeling displeased in her heart, yet she had to be cautious, not daring to lash out, and could only silently raise the bid.
"The Wei family’s girl has quite some mettle, huh! Haha... One point four billion!" Lu Yuanfang chuckled, "This is my bottom line. As long as you bid higher than this, the Dark Void Gold is yours..."
In an instant, everyone turned their gazes toward Wei Lin.
Waiting for Wei Lin to make a decision.
Wei Lin was silent at first, but after a few breaths, she suddenly stood up: "One point four billion and ten million, I want the Dark Void Gold!"
Lu Yuanfang nodded, "Then congratulations to the Wei family’s girl..."
"Thank you all for your generosity!" Wei Lin nodded and breathed a sigh of relief. Though the Dark Void Gold cost her one point four billion, it was neither a gain nor a loss, and overall, she was satisfied.
But just then, "Three billion!" an untimely voice suddenly appeared, soft but like thunder from a clear sky!!!
As he spoke, Wei Lin’s face almost visibly changed from its previous calm to flushed with indignation and anger.
And the other people in the auction hall also turned their heads in unison, staring at Su Chen, utterly stunned... completely astounded...
Previously, the battling among Wei Lin, Lu Yuanfang, and Tian Sanlin was indeed thrilling, to the point that people could almost forget about Su Chen.
Who would have thought... that Su Chen would take action again? And still double the bid, even a bit more than double.
How insanely wealthy must he be?! It’s simply beyond imagination, right?
This time, even Nangong Wu looked toward Su Chen with a subtle surprise in her beautiful eyes.
"Su Chen! Are you serious?" A few breaths later, Wei Lin stared at Su Chen, her voice filled with bone-chilling coldness and a threat. With Su Chen’s bid of three billion, she couldn’t possibly continue bidding.
If Su Chen was serious, she would definitely lose face, and along with her, both the First Prince and the Wei Family would look bad.
Wei Lin now deeply understood Nangong Ao’s feelings from before, wanting to kill someone was an understatement; she wanted to tear Su Chen into ten thousand pieces!
Su Chen remained silent, ignoring Wei Lin.
Of course, he was serious. If he weren’t, the small platform in front of him would have already begun to warn him, wouldn’t it?
He was here to bid in the auction, bidding rightfully with Black Xuan Stones, why bother with Wei Lin?
"You’re good, very good. I, Wei Lin, the First Prince, and the Wei Family, will all remember you!!!" Seeing that Su Chen remained silent and didn’t bother with her, Wei Lin clenched her hand, enunciating every word as she spoke, and then she sat down.
"Three billion, once. Three billion, twice. Three billion, thrice. Sold."
The fourth treasure, transaction successful.
Gurgling, gurgling, gurgling...
In the hall, many martial cultivators couldn’t help but swallow their saliva.
Really traded? Adding it up, Su Chen had already spent about sixty billion.
The first four treasures were all taken by Su Chen! This ties the record set by Nangong Wu!
Previously, the record for the most items obtained at a single Sacred Auction had been four, held by Nangong Wu.
Could it be that Su Chen was going to break Nangong Wu’s record this time?
What others thought, Su Chen did not know, nor did he want to know; at this moment, he was delighted, the Dark Void Gold had already been placed within his Azure Mysterious Ring.
"Damn! Is that little bastard the reincarnation of the God of Wealth?" Nangong Ao couldn’t help but curse under his breath, filled with dissatisfaction and envy.
Nangong Jie might not have said anything, but his expression also changed subtly.
As for the Sixteenth Prince, Nangong Hui, his face was gloomy, constantly reminded of the words Su Chen had said outside the auction hall—If you can get one treasure today, consider it my loss.
"The fifth item is a special one. What it specifically is, even I am not sure. However, this item is genuinely obtained from the ruins of an Ancient Emperor," Elder Ji introduced, lighting up many people’s eyes.
Obtained from the ruins of an Ancient Emperor? It couldn’t possibly be something ordinary!!!
Under the gaze of the crowd, Elder Ji unveiled the red cloth.
It was a small tower, and moreover, it was riddled with many defects and damages, purple-gray in color, and had a total of nine layers.
"This seems to be a weapon, and furthermore, its rank is exceptionally high; however, it must be damaged, otherwise, it would definitely be the finale for tonight. Though it’s completely broken, it still holds significant value, especially for some Artifact Refiners, it could be of great importance," Elder Ji continued, "Its starting price is also five hundred million."
Su Chen’s body visibly shuddered harshly.
Even more so, if someone were to observe him closely, they would notice that Su Chen was somewhat distraught.
Not just Su Chen who was distraught; Jiuyou was as well.
"Young boy Su, you must get it, you must," Jiuyou couldn’t wait any longer.
Why? Because, this broken, unnamed weapon, exuded an incomparable aura of evil Qi.
In other words, this damaged weapon was imbued with an extremely dense evil Qi.
Furthermore, this could be well explained; this was a Supreme Treasure, to break it, to damage it, clearly it was an incredibly powerful one move, moreover, a move from an ancient powerhouse, and within that powerful move, there was boundlessly contained evil Qi.
Over millions of years, as time passed, the already thick concentration of evil Qi that stained this broken small tower only accumulated more due to being buried within a sealed space.
Now, this small tower was practically a spirit of evil Qi.
Su Chen, just so happened to be desiring evil Qi!
What is the essential condition for cultivating "Divine Demon Body Training"? Right, it’s evil Qi. This update is available on novel·fire·net
Ever since obtaining the "Divine Demon Body Training," Su Chen had not yet started practicing it, purely because he lacked evil Qi, right?
While evil Qi is indeed everywhere, it’s usually thin and scarce, seeking such an extremely dense source of evil Qi is truly a stroke of luck.
Unexpectedly, today he was extremely lucky and encountered it.
For Su Chen, the importance of this damaged small tower was immense; obtaining it could perhaps allow him to achieve Basic Entry in "Divine Demon Body Training"!
By then, his physical body might be able to advance even further.
Su Chen swallowed hard.
He couldn’t wait, absolutely couldn’t wait any longer.
Without letting others initiate a bid, Su Chen took a deep breath and directly declared, "Three billion!!!"
