Chapter 4305: Bait
enced by high-level cultivators, yet it appears to be manifesting in a ball of fire.At the same time, he also felt endless heat. If he hadn't already reached the realm of early stage body refinement,...The two men from Deer and Ding Mountain also saw Ye Bufan, a flash of killing intent in their eyes, but this was an industry under the jurisdiction of the Myriad Phenomena Heaven Palace. They didn't dare to make a move here casually.
He snorted coldly and sank into the seat on the other side, his face grim.
It turned out that the auction had a huge impact, and subsequently, more powerful figures kept coming, including those at the level of ancestors.
Besides the two people from Lù Dǐng Xuān in Líng Jiǔ Diàn, there were also two people who came to Tài Huá Diàn.
A young disciple, Bai Li Xuan Yi, participated in this Holy Spirit Assembly. He was a genius disciple from the Ninth Heaven Realm of the Sacred World and is now at the fifth rank of the Yuan Emperor.
Behind him followed the Great Elder of the sect, Bai Li Xia, a sixth-rank ancestor.
In addition, there is also Qianyuan Mountain among the Three Mountains. The young female disciple who came was Duan Fengling, accompanied by a red-cloaked old woman, the second elder Gui Fengzhen.
Generally speaking, an auction rarely attracts powerhouses of the ancestral realm, but now there are four at once, which is unprecedented in scale.
Seeing this scene, Ye Bufan felt increasingly uneasy in his heart.
Anyway, since we're here, we can't just give up on these treasures in front of us. Besides, the auction is about to begin, and it would be too late to go find the old man by then.
Anyway, this is the territory of Myriad Heavens Palace. Even the Primordial Ancestors wouldn't dare to act recklessly here, which brought him some reassurance.
Time passed quickly, and the auction began. A man in a black robe walked onto the stage as the auctioneer.
"Distinguished guests, welcome to the auction today. Our first item up for sale is the Heavenly Pure Fruit."
Since you are all here, I presume you know the preciousness of this fruit. It can purify a cultivator's spiritual roots and enhance their cultivation aptitude...
The auctioneer’s words tumbled out, leaving a trail of ambiguity. It was unclear if he genuinely didn't know or had some ulterior motive, but he made no mention of the effects of the Heavenly Pure Divine Fruit on immaculate spiritual roots.
"Alright, the auction is now open. The starting bid is 10,000 Chaos Saint Crystals, and each subsequent bid must be at least 1,000..."
Generally speaking, auctions usually save valuable treasures for last, as the grand finale. But this auction is doing things a bit differently. The first three items up for bid are all exceptionally captivating treasures.
As a result, as soon as he finished speaking, someone immediately raised their placard.
"...100,000..."
"One million..."
"Two million…"
In fact, the starting price of Heaven-Purifying Divine Fruit is just a gimmick. Everyone knows that it's impossible to get this treasure for 10,000 Chaos Holy Crystals.
Facts are also such that it soon soared to five million.
"I'll offer ten million!"
As soon as the words left his mouth, a hush fell over the room.
Although the Heavenly Pure Divine Fruit is a treasure, ten million Chaotic Sacred Crystals are not something anyone can just get their hands on. It's more than the entire wealth of some small and medium-sized sects.
It was Ye Bufan holding the sign. Although he suspected this auction was a trap, he couldn't just stand by and do nothing when faced with such a valuable item.
"I want this."
The voice of the Demon Lord Wan Shou Xie echoed in my ear, and then he held up a sign: "One million one hundred thousand."
If it were someone else, Ye Bufan would not back down.
But this guy controls Erlang's physical body, takes the Tianjing Shen Guo for himself, and when he retrieves Erlang, it's also helping himself. In this situation, there's no need to forcibly fight with limited Chaos Holy Crystals.
Having thought this through, he didn't say much more. He simply put the license plate down from his hands.
"I'll offer fifteen million..."
But just because he gave up doesn't mean others will too. Bai Li Xuan Yi from Tai Hua Dian raised the flag.
"20 million."
The Evil Sovereign remained unyielding. Now, he had Luo Jisheng by his side. Recently, capitalizing on the reputation of being the reincarnation of the Immortal Ancestor, he had attracted more and more powerful individuals to his cause, amassing a considerable fortune in the process.
For this fruit that could help him improve quickly, he wouldn't let it go.
"25 million…"
"Thirty million..."
As soon as Bai Li Xuan Yi's voice fell, the Demon Lord of Ten Thousand Beasts increased the price again, bringing it directly to thirty million.
"$50 million!"
Bai Li Xuan Yi announced this price, shocking the entire audience. Normally, unless it was a Pristine Spiritual Root, bidding such a high price for Tian Jing Shen Guo would be completely uneconomical.
Yet, the other party did exactly that, surprising many.
Ye Bufan frowned, a sense of unease creeping into his heart.
Normally, it would be understandable for the Demon King to pay a king's ransom for this thing, but there’s no real motive for them to do so.
Unless the two people in front of me are like heavenly ripened peaches, all used as bait for fishing.
If you were the Demon King, watching the Heaven-Purifying Divine Fruit but unable to reach it, what would you do
In the Chaos Sacred Realm, there's only one rule: take. No matter the cost, you get what you want.
including Luo Jiseng behind him and other strong people probably wouldn't oppose, even wholeheartedly support.
The Demon King of Ten Thousand Beasts wore a look of unwillingness on his face, staring longingly at the Pure Heaven Divine Fruit.
Though unwilling to part with it, there was no other way. Even though he had gathered all the Chaos Crystals from the powerful individuals around him, he still lacked five million. He could only sadly put down the bidding plaque.
Faced with such a high price, he backed out, and naturally no one else reacted either.
Ye Bufan, to verify his guess, raised the sign in his hand.
"I bid sixty million!"
As soon as the hammer fell, the auction hall erupted in another wave of excitement. This first item was sold at such a high price, exceeding everyone's expectations.
"70 million!"
It wasn't too different from what I expected. Although Bai Li Xuan Yi was a little surprised, he didn't hesitate to raise his sign and bid more.
By now, Ye Bufan can be certain that this Tianjing Divine Fruit is bait. He wouldn't care about the price for something he made himself.
Thinking back to the timing of this auction, it seems to have happened after the Wan Shou Xie Jun assassination attempt failed and he returned.
And the whole thing was made such a big deal out of, as if they were afraid people wouldn't know.
There's no suspense left, just waiting to see if Lord of the Ten Thousand Beasts and his side will take the bait.
As he also put down his sign, the first lot ended, and Tianjing Shen Guo was delivered into Bai Li Xuan Yi's hands.
Then the second item was brought onstage. Two white fruits looked pure and flawless, as if carved from jade.
The rich aroma emanating from it was unmistakable; this was a genuine Soul Dew Fruit.
Ye Bufan suppressed the excitement in his heart. The moment he confirmed that the Heavenly Purity Divine Fruit was bait, he had already made a plan.
The first item is up for grabs, we'll see if I can get it or not. But this one, absolutely not.
As for the next five lines of essence, judging by the current situation, they are very likely to be bait set by the other party.
Normally, to achieve the best effect and upgrade a spatial world's level, you need to gather the five elemental essences of gold, wood, water, fire, and earth.
And the other party brought out four to auction. If someone bids at all costs, that means they have the remaining piece of thick soil essence in their hands, and they will also become the target of the person behind them.
In this situation, if you rashly charge in, even if you have a hundred million Chaos Saint Crystals in your hand and manage to get this thing, you'll only become someone else's scapegoat. You wouldn't even know how you would die then.
As for the two Dewdrop Soul Fruit in front of me, they seem to be put out there just to raise the level of the auction. They probably aren't bait.
Though the time was short, he considered everything meticulously and ultimately set his sights on two Dewdrop Soul Fruits!aring it while healing her wounds, which gives people a very strange feeling.Beside him stood a stately middle-aged woman, none other than Xi Men Feng, the Great Elder of the Jiǔvàn Immortal Palace.At...
