Chapter 4629: Ghost Faced Flower

Offending one old ghost Liang is not terrible, but offending more than a dozen Earth Saint Ancestors at the same time is terrible.

The number of Earth Saint Ancestors who emerged from seclusion this time was not small; a cursory glance revealed as many as forty or fifty.

Before the Heavenly Realm split, they were cultivators of the Ancient Divine Realm. Even the lowest-ranking rogue cultivators would be considered ancestors in today's Heavenly Realm.

The entire auction hall was so quiet you could hear a pin drop. Everyone held their breath, and even the Ji family, Shenye City, Youlan Yung Valley, and Ziyu Zhai were secretly worried for Taihe Sect.

"Eleven million!"

Old Liang made another offer.

"Ten million five hundred thousand!"

An old man sitting behind Liang Laogui followed along with the bidding.

"Twelve million!"

Qi Yuan seemed oblivious to the surrounding chatter and continued to raise the price. The value of a Creation Jade should be at least between 20 and 30 million. This particular Creation Jade was relatively small and not of top quality, so its value should be around 22 million.

The real Creation Jade radiates a reddish-yellow luster, and its abundant aura of creation is enough to fill the entire auction hall. This Creation Jade is just a flawed piece.

It's enough to refine a low-grade Earth Saint magic weapon.

After a fierce bidding war, Taihe Gate was finally acquired for 25 million.

Although it is slightly higher than the market value, at present, having one more Earth Saint-level magic weapon is enough to greatly enhance the overall strength of Taihe Sect.

"Taihe Sect has already won several items in a row, consuming nearly 100 million resources. Let's see how they compete with us next. Don't forget that rare mineral resources are our target. The more they bid, the more advantageous it is for us. It would be best if they offended all the Earth Saint Ancestors present. That way, when they leave the Brilliant Auction House, we won't need to take any action. These Earth Saint Ancestors will not let them leave."

The Tang family's top brass are secretly communicating with the top brass of several other major forces.

The quality of the treasures improved as the auction progressed, and their prices naturally rose. The fact that several items were sold at Taihe Gate in a row was indeed not conducive to the upcoming auctions.

As everyone knows!

Mu Hongzhang secretly sold a batch of the Hongmeng Pills and Chixiao Divine Crystals he had refined, earning a huge amount of resources. Only when the five major forces combined could they barely contend with Taihe Sect.

"The next item to be auctioned is the ancient sacred fire, with a starting price of eight million sacred crystals, and each bid must be at least one million higher."

A flame appeared before Luo Shijun, its terrifying power of fire rules instantly distorting the surrounding space. When everyone looked towards the central area, they could only see a ball of flame and could not make out Luo Shijun's face.

"The Sacred Flame of the Bright Moon!"

Exclamations of surprise rang out from all around. For cultivators who practice fire-attribute techniques, the Bright Moon Sacred Flame was a top-tier treasure.

Once you refine the Bright Moon Sacred Flame, you can absorb the power of its rules, thereby controlling the essence of fire and breaking through to the next level of cultivation.

Liu Wuxie already possessed the Chaos Sacred Flame, so the Bright Moon Sacred Flame held little appeal for him.

After a fierce competition, the Nightfall Royal Family bought it for 30 million Saintly Crystals. Coincidentally, the Nightfall Royal Family had a powerful expert who cultivated the fire attribute and was in dire need of a Saintly Flame.

As the auction continued, the competition intensified, with the ten major sects and their rogue cultivator ancestors constantly participating, making the atmosphere of conflict between the sects increasingly tense.

Just now, a fragment of a sacred artifact actually sold for fifty million sacred crystals and was ultimately bought by the Ji family.

It's just a fragment; if it were a complete sacred artifact, its value would be at least ten to twenty times higher.

The half-day break in the middle of the auction was a great way to relieve the tension and stress of everyone who was under so much pressure.

Half a day later!

The auction continued, and before anyone knew it, more than twenty items had already been sold.

"The next item to be auctioned is three drops of Xuanwu essence blood. As you all know, the Xuanwu sacred beast is one of the four spirits and has the strongest defense among all the sacred beasts. These three drops of Xuanwu essence blood contain a trace of the Xuanwu sacred beast's consciousness. If you can refine it, there is a certain probability of comprehending the Xuanwu divine power."

Luo Shijun took out a porcelain bottle containing three drops of Xuanwu essence blood, which they had recently obtained from outside Xuantian.

There were ten drops in total. They kept seven drops at their splendid auction house and put the remaining three drops up for auction.

Each trip to Xuan Tian requires a large amount of resources. Although the Brilliant Auction House is wealthy, its daily consumption is also extremely high.

Selling three drops of Xuanwu essence blood will earn you a large sum of resources, enough to pay the rewards to those powerful individuals, allowing you to continue your journey into the depths of Xuantian to search for more treasures.

"Price alert!"

As soon as Luo Shijun finished speaking, a voice came from afar.

Many cultivators present possessed the Xuanwu Xuanmai (a type of magical vein). With the Xuanwu essence blood, they could fully unleash their bloodline power, achieve the Xuanwu body, and transform into Xuanwu to fight.

Xuanwu's defensive power is almost invincible among those of the same level. Transforming into Xuanwu means one is already invincible.

"Wu Xie, will the essence blood of Xuanwu be of any use to you?"

Mu Hongzhang knew that Liu Wuxie had cultivated the Sacred Dragon Body, and his defensive power was no less than that of Xuanwu.

The essence of Xuanwu blood cannot raise one's cultivation level; its main purpose is to enhance the power of one's bloodline, helping cultivators with the Xuanwu bloodline to complete their transformation.

"Not very useful!"

Liu Wuxie shook his head.

Although the essence blood of the Black Tortoise is good, he hasn't set his sights on it yet. His target is the Holy Blood of the True Dragon and the Marrow of the Divine Phoenix.

Needless to say, the True Dragon Holy Blood can perfect his Holy Dragon Body and has a certain probability of allowing his physical body to break through its limits and achieve the Earth Saint Body.

The Divine Phoenix Marrow is an extremely rare treasure that can upgrade one's Vermilion Bird Treasure Bone by one level. At that time, the power of the Vermilion Bird Profound Fire will be greatly enhanced, and it may even be possible to advance to the Vermilion Bird Sacred Fire.

The power of the Vermilion Bird Sacred Flame is no less than that of the Chaos Sacred Flame, and its quality far surpasses that of the Bright Moon Sacred Flame. This is why Liu Wuxie looks down on the Bright Moon Sacred Flame.

The Chaos Sacred Flame is suitable for refining, but not for attacking. The Vermilion Bird Profound Flame, on the other hand, can be used as an attack method.

A fierce battle has begun. The starting bid for three drops of Xuanwu blood essence is ten million. The top ten sects all have powerful members with Xuanwu bloodline, and they are determined to buy the Xuanwu blood essence no matter what.

After a fierce battle, Shenye City was finally auctioned off for 70 million.

The other sects gave up and continued to compete, which was pointless, as three drops of Xuanwu essence blood were worth only between five and sixty million.

Although Xuanwu essence blood is rare, it can still be found in the Heavenly Realm every few hundred years. The Brilliant Auction House can find a few drops from Xuantian almost every few hundred years.

It seems that the Xuanwu Sacred Beast participated in that battle, and after its fall, its essence and blood scattered throughout the Xuan Tian.

By the fourth day, about a third of the auction had been completed, with over fifty items sold, and all the major sects had made gains.

Sects that acquired treasures were naturally happy, while those that failed to acquire treasures were dejected, as their preparations were still insufficient.

"The next item to be auctioned is a complete half-step Earthly Sacred Artifact, with a starting bid of ten million!"

By the third day, the starting price for all items was ten million, which was extremely expensive.

A complete half-step Earthly Sacred Artifact is definitely more valuable than a fragment of an Earthly Sacred Artifact.

With enough materials, a half-step Earthly Sacred Artifact can be refined into a true Earthly Sacred Artifact. However, fragments of incomplete Earthly Sacred Artifacts can only serve as a reference for understanding the artifact patterns on them; they are not of much use.

really!

Upon hearing that it was a half-step Earth Saint artifact, even those Earth Saint Ancestors were tempted. With this half-step Earth Saint artifact, plus the materials they had, it would be more cost-effective than buying a Creation Divine Jade.

Ordinary people cannot refine a half-step Earthly Saint artifact into a true Earthly Saint artifact, but Earthly Saint Ancestors can. Many of the Earthly Saint Ancestors present are experts in artifact refining; they only lack resources.

The price skyrocketed the moment it was announced, with all ten major sects participating.

In no time, the price reached the 50 million mark, almost reaching the limit of this half-step Earthly Sacred Artifact.

After all, it is only a half-step Earthly Sacred Artifact, and cannot be compared with a true Earthly Sacred Artifact. A true Earthly Sacred Artifact is priceless and unavailable. Even if you offer 10 billion, you may not be able to buy it.

Forty-five million!

An extremely cold voice drifted over from the viewing platform of the rogue cultivators.

That's right!

The sound seemed to drift over, unlike other sounds that were transmitted.

Each word seemed to have gained weight; they floated in the sky like poisonous needles, making everyone present feel extremely uncomfortable.

"The Yin God with a Ghost Face, I never expected that old codger would also emerge from seclusion."

Sitting next to Liu Wuxie, Ancestor Ke Rong suddenly frowned, having a bad feeling.

"Ancestor Ke Rong, do you know this person?"

Liu Wuxie asked curiously.

"I've met him a few times. He's incredibly vicious, so don't provoke him. More importantly, he's already stepped into the realm of the ultimate Earth Saint. We were just menial disciples of the Taihe Sect back then. Yin Shen Gui Mian Hua is different. Before the Heavenly Domain split, he was the young master of a certain family. Due to special reasons, he failed to transfer and eventually split off with the Heavenly Domain. Logically speaking, someone of his status should have more than enough half-step Earth Saint artifacts and magic treasures. Why did he get involved?"

"Old Ancestor Ke Rong said solemnly, his tone full of apprehension."

Facing a Saint of Liang Laogui's level, the Taihe Sect naturally had no fear.

The Yin God Ghost Face Flower was someone that no sect dared to offend easily.

Even if the Yin God Ghost Face Flower now has the same status as them, it is not something that ordinary Earth Saints like them can offend, because the Yin God Ghost Face Flower has mastered the complete cultivation method.

If it weren't for the restrictions of the Heavenly Domain rules, he would have broken through to the Profound Saint Realm long ago.

Liu Wuxie secretly activated his Ghost Eyes and looked into the distance. He finally saw the appearance of the Yin God Ghost Face Flower clearly. Although he was a man, he had the appearance of a woman. His appearance was absolutely stunning. Such a strong contrast caused Liu Wuxie's consciousness to become slightly confused.

This is also the origin of the Yin God Ghost Face Flower, which is related to the cultivation technique he practiced, making his appearance more and more beautiful, which is why the outside world described him as Ghost Face Flower.

Her face was ghostly, more beautiful than a flower.

Beside the Yin God Ghost Face Flower sat a cultivator who was neither male nor female, gently nestled beside the Yin God Ghost Face Flower, her face radiant with spring-like joy. Liu Wuxie couldn't even tell whether they were male or female.

"Thank you, my husband. With this half-step Earthly Saint Artifact, I'll see who dares to bully me now. Tonight, I will definitely serve you well."

The woman nestled in the arms of the Yin God Ghost Face Flower spoke softly.

Clearly, the half-step sacred artifact that Yin Shen Gui Mian Hua bought was not for his own use, but rather a gift for the woman in his arms.
