Chapter 525 - Sir, What's the Hurry?
The auction for the lich army continued.
However, the price of 1,600 drops had already made most people retreat.
This price was already too high.
The only two sides still competing were the middle-aged man from the Corpse Herding Clan and the young master from the Heavenly Essence Clan.
The middle-aged man's expression was a little ugly. This price was a little too high for the Corpse Herding Clan.
However, the clan really needed such a batch of liches recently.
He could only grit his teeth and say, "1,650 drops!"
However, the young master only sneered.
"Only 50 drops. How petty. 1,800 drops!"
Just as the young master finished speaking, everyone was shocked.
The juniors of large families were extraordinary. Even though the price had exceeded the market price by five to six hundred drops of Star Domain Essence, they still did not hesitate.
The young man looked calm.
He enjoyed the admiring gazes of everyone.
Actually, to him, taking these liches was the most important thing. As for the Star Domain Essence, it did not matter if he spent more.
Everyone had actually misunderstood.
To these powerful families with a long history, money was actually not a problem. The problem was that some things could not be bought with money!
For example, the undead army was a treasure that could affect the inheritance of a clan!
It was not something that could be bought with money!
Not to mention, the Heavenly Essence Clan that the young man was from already had 500 Profound Connection Realm lich kings. This was an extremely powerful force!
A casual combined attack might be able to instantly destroy a Spiritual Abode expert!
This was a power that could not be bought with money!
If he bought the current 100 liches and nurtured them well, the strength of the undead army would definitely increase by another level. This was not something a few hundred drops of Star Domain Essence could compare to.
The young man saw through this very clearly.
Therefore, not to mention 1,800 drops, even if he spent 2,000 drops of Star Domain Essence to auction these lich kings, his family would definitely reimburse him when he returned. He would even be rewarded!
This was the difference between an inherited family and an ordinary warrior…
In the Auction Hall, the young man's price was too high.
No matter how unwilling the middle-aged man from the Corpse Herding Clan was, he had no choice but to give up and find another way.
In the end, the first batch of liches that Chu Feng sold were auctioned at a sky-high price of 1,800 drops of Star Domain Essence!
Even after deducting the 300 drops he owed the Sky Treasure Pavilion, there were still 1,500 drops!
It was more than enough to offset the consumption from the previous auction of the Spiritual Abode.
In his seat, Chu Feng was smiling from ear to ear.
It was not that he had not thought that the lich army might be quite popular, but he had not expected it to be so popular!
He easily obtained thousands of drops of Star Domain Essence, and what he paid was only some vitality.
Most importantly… the highest control of these liches was still in Chu Feng's hands!
This was a true freeloader!
Of course, unless it was a last resort, Chu Feng would definitely not expose this.
The auction of the lich army temporarily came to an end.
Soon, more items were brought on stage.
They were all rare treasures!
However, Chu Feng took a quick glance. There was nothing special that he needed, so he did not say anything.
Of course, he would also bid occasionally to test if Bai Qi and the others would continue to cause trouble.
As Chu Feng had expected, no matter how fiercely he was bidding, Bai Qi remained silent, as if he was mute.
However, Chu Feng did not let his guard down. From time to time, he would bid to confuse the other party.
Just when Chu Feng was feeling bored, suddenly, a swaying purple flower appeared on the stage.
In the private room on the second floor, Yan Wudao suddenly sat up straight, his eyes filled with joy.
"It's actually the Purple Essence Profound Flower. I've always planned to refine a batch of Purple Essence Profound Flame Pills. What I lack is this flower! I didn't expect the Sky Treasure Pavilion to even be able to obtain such a rare spiritual flower!"
Yan Wudao was delighted.
This was a pleasant surprise.
This was an ancient recipe he had accidentally obtained previously.
The other materials had already been prepared, but he could not find the main ingredient.
This flower was really too rare. Its use was actually not very widespread, causing it to rarely appear in the market.
This batch of pills was originally the key he had planned to use to open the second sky!
If he could obtain that crucial item this time, coupled with this Purple Essence Profound Flame Pill, establishing the second sky was almost certain!
At that time, Yan Wudao would be able to ascend to the Deity Realm and become a True God!
He was extremely excited.
On the surface, he tried his best to remain calm.
He waited for Madam Qi to announce the start of the auction.
Chu Feng also saw this strange flower, but he did not recognize it at all. He only knew its name after listening to Madam Qi's introduction.
Since he did not even know it, he naturally would not fight for it.
Most of the people present were the same.
This spiritual flower was really too niche.
Therefore, it was expected that the competition would not be too intense.
In addition, the starting price offered by the Sky Treasure Pavilion was actually 500 drops of Star Domain Essence. It was already comparable to an ordinary Spiritual Abode, and it directly dissuaded most people.
As a result, after the auction began, only a few people were bidding. Moreover, most of them only seemed to know some uses and were not determined to win.
When Yan Wudao saw this scene, joy appeared on his face.
However, he still suppressed the excitement in his heart and endured it until the price slowly rose to 620 drops. Then, he pretended to speak casually.
"650 drops. This spiritual flower is beautiful and moving. It's very pleasing. I've always liked to collect flowers and spiritual trees. It's beautiful. I'll buy it and admire it."
For a big shot like Yan Wudao, it was normal for him to spend hundreds of thousands of drops of Star Domain Essence for his liking.
Therefore, no one would suspect anything.
Moreover, because he was the first big shot to participate in the auction, the few people who were still competing could not help but choose to give up.
It was not a treasure that he had to fight for, so he might as well give this Palace Master face.
Someone even cupped his hands at Yan Wudao's private room and smiled faintly.
"Palace Master Yan is indeed an elegant person. Since it's a small hobby of Palace Master Yan, we naturally won't disturb you. We won't fight for this spiritual flower."
In the private room, Yan Wudao could not help but grin as his mighty voice sounded.
"Thank you for your help. Fellow Daoist Mo, I remember you. You can come to my palace when you have time."
Fellow Daoist Mo was overjoyed.
Wasn't he flattering Yan Wudao so that he could get familiar with him?
It was worth it!
When the others saw this, they regretted it. Why didn't they flatter him first!
Mo Cheng had beaten them to it!
Just when Yan Wudao thought that everything was settled, he couldn't help but remind Madam Qi.
Suddenly, an inappropriate voice resounded through the hall.
"Hey… Wait, I didn't say that I'm not bidding anymore. Lord Yan, why are you so anxious…"
