Volume 2: Achieving the Nine Heavens and Breaking the Cage Chapter 542: The Remnant Treasures of the Immortal
Under that sinister gaze, Gu Xiaoxing felt his entire body and soul go cold. He secretly practiced his cultivation and was able to barely resist.
This made Gu Xiaoxing feel very aggrieved. It was clearly an auction, and the highest bidder would win. Why did he keep scare people with his eyes? !
Since it has happened so many times, Gu Xiaoxing simply didn't care anymore and shouted again.
"30 billion!"
"Three hundred and one hundred million!"
"Forty billion!"
"Four hundred and one hundred million...!"
When the man in black robe shouted to this point, one could clearly feel that his voice had become extremely gloomy.
At this price, no one else was bidding except the two of them.
Gu Xiaoxing almost gritted his teeth and shouted: "Fifty billion!"
Finally, the man in black robe stopped talking, but his gaze made Gu Xiaoxing terrified.
He knew that the other party had completely set his sights on him.
It was not until the old master of ceremonies had determined the price three times and finally made the final decision that the tortoise shell fragment engraved with the presence or absence of magical powers finally belonged to Gu Xiaoxing.
Suddenly, Gu Xiaoxing had an urge to cry. He didn't know what the use of this crappy magical power was. Not only did he spend 50 billion, but he also got himself into trouble.
"Father-in-law, do you know how much your son-in-law has done for you!?"
When the tortoise shell fragments floated over from below, Gu Xiaoxing didn't even look at them. He just waved his hand in the air and threw them to Dongfang Yexuan.
He was afraid that after touching the tortoise shell fragments, the ghostly thoughts of the Three Desolate Tortoises would jump out and disgust him.
At this time, many people were still in shock. It was a bit abnormal to buy a tortoise shell fragment with 50 billion high-quality spirit stones.
Fortunately, there was the hundreds of billions of Purple Extreme Spiritual Pills that the Sixth Prince of the Xuanshang Dynasty had provided as a foundation.
Otherwise, everyone would mistakenly think that Gu Xiaoxing was crazy.
After all, the Sixth Prince is not crazy.
As expected, these two people would clash as soon as they met, and they were at loggerheads and neither would give in!
As for those top-notch forces on the ninth floor, they all looked thoughtful.
It would be fine if only one person offered a high price, but since two people were competing for it, it only shows that the magical powers conveyed by this tortoise shell fragment are indeed extraordinary.
But such a high price is far beyond the affordability of many people, and their goals are all focused on the final highlight!
At the same time, they were also wondering who the man in black robe was!
Being able to offer 40 billion high-quality spirit stones is no longer something that a simple first-rate force can easily come up with.
The top-notch force, apart from Jianyi Valley and Sanyuan Yiji Sect, is the Yinsha Sect hidden in the dark.
They guessed that this person most likely represented one of these three forces!
After Dongfang Yexuan got the tortoise shell fragments, there was an indescribable look on his face.
Finally, he looked at Gu Xiaoxing deeply and said, "Thank you!"
When Gu Xiaoxing heard these two words from Dongfang Yexuan's mouth, he was stunned.
The fact that my father-in-law is like this is enough to show how important this tortoise shell fragment is to him!
Afterwards, Dongfang Yexuan did not chat with Gu Xiaoxing, but ran back to the Tongtian World to practice in seclusion.
Hence, Gu Xiaoxing was the only one left in this small elegant pavilion.
The auction was still going on. Since even tortoise shell fragments were being sold, Gu Xiaoxing was really looking forward to seeing another decent tortoise shell fragment that could contain a powerful secret magical power engraved on it.
But unfortunately, it didn’t!
Gu Xiaoxing was helpless, but there was nothing he could do. He just watched the auction items being sold off under hammer after hammer, and he did not bid again.
Although the items being auctioned are good, Gu Xiaoxing doesn’t like them!
Similarly, the man in black robe across the street also did not bid again. He just sat there alone, as steady as an old dog!
This made Gu Xiaoxing speechless, and he thought to himself, maybe this man in black robe is not compatible with him?
He follows whatever I want, and if I don’t want it anymore, he doesn’t want it either.
Are you trying to make me unhappy?!
As for other top-notch forces, they only bid occasionally. Their goal is the final treasure that leads to immortality, so naturally they won't compete too fiercely in the beginning.
This resulted in most of the items being bought by people on the eighth floor.
Only a very small number of them were photographed by the monks on the seventh floor.
Gradually, the auction finally came to an end. With a loud announcement from the old master of ceremonies, the auction of the last ten items began.
Of the ten auction items, the first five were extremely rare items, and the prices they were sold for were higher than the last.
And the final price of each auction item is no less than 1 billion high-quality spirit stones!
Gu Xiaoxing still didn't make a bid until the next few items were put on the table, when he finally became interested!
The old master of ceremonies below waved his hand and took out another auction item.
But this time, he took out not one, but three!
Among them, there is a big golden hammer, an exquisite tower, and an iron lump similar to a walnut!
The moment these three things were taken out by the old master of ceremonies, they immediately attracted everyone's attention.
It’s because these three treasures exude power that exceeds that of top-grade spiritual treasures!
"These are... three treasures that can reach the level of immortals?!"
But soon, someone discovered something was wrong.
There were many people from top-notch forces present, and they had all seen the real treasures of immortality!
In comparison, the power emanating from the three treasures at present is obviously weaker.
Gu Xiaoxing saw the clue at a glance. These were indeed three immortal treasures!
But it is a defective product!
They are not complete, they contain a sense of disorder, and their power is not as strong as the real treasures of immortals!
Moreover, there seemed to be a violent sense of repression inside, as if it could explode at any time!
"Everyone, these three items are what our pavilion is going to auction next. I believe some of you may have already felt clearly that these are three defective treasures of the immortal realm!"
As soon as the old master of ceremonies finished speaking, everyone present was immediately in an uproar.
Although there are very few people who have seen the treasure of immortality, there are still more people who have never seen it!
At this moment, the three immortal treasures were placed together. Although they were all defective products, the power they exuded was enough to shock countless people!
The old master of ceremonies waited until the exclamations from all around died down a little before he smiled and continued speaking.
"Perhaps at this moment, fellow Taoists will find it very strange why my Dahao Treasure Pavilion would auction off three pieces of Tongxian broken treasures."
"Let me explain...!"
"Although these three treasures are defective, they are also true treasures for the immortals. They can still burst out with the power of the immortals!"
"In fact, the power they unleash exceeds that of ordinary immortal treasures!"
"Because, they can only be used once...!"
Everyone listened to the old master of ceremonies' narration and finally began to understand!
It turns out that this incomplete treasure of Tongxian can only unleash the power of one blow!
But this attack was like burning his boats, releasing all its power in an instant at the cost of destroying his own treasure of immortality.
This is a one-and-done gamble!
Therefore, the power it unleashes is even greater than that of ordinary immortal treasures, enough to instantly injure, or even severely damage a person who has reached the state of great perfection in the transformation of the spirit!
There is even a small possibility that, by catching the enemy by surprise, the Great Perfection of Spiritualization will be killed!
To put it bluntly, this is equivalent to a self-destructive weapon at the immortal level!
Moreover, this is something that ordinary immortal treasures cannot achieve!
This is because an ordinary complete Tongxian treasure would not have the kind of violent and chaotic meaning found in a broken Tongxian treasure. It is not so easy for it to self-destruct!
In addition, everyone thought of another point!
If, say, a piece of incomplete treasure from the immortal realm could seriously injure a person who had attained the Great Perfection of Incarnation!
So, what about all three together?
Does this mean that a person who has reached the Great Perfection of Spiritualization can be put into a situation where he is doomed to die?!
Thinking of this, some people couldn't help but take a breath, secretly thinking that Dahao Baoge really knows how to do business.
No wonder the old master of ceremonies took the lead in taking out these three remaining treasures of immortality and showing them to everyone together!
In this case, let alone three items, no one would even allow another force other than themselves to have the possibility of obtaining two items!
Who can guarantee that the combination of these two items will not kill the Great Perfection of the Divine Transformation? !
Although it can only hit once, the threat posed by this suicide soldier is still huge!
On the one hand, these top-notch forces want to control this threat in their own hands, but on the other hand, they don’t want to leave this threat outside!
In a sense , the two incomplete Tongxian treasures have even far exceeded the value of a complete Tongxian treasure.
Because, a complete treasure that leads to immortality cannot kill a person who has reached the Great Perfection of Incarnation!
But two pieces of immortal treasures might be enough!
Even if he was only seriously injured in the explosion, this would undoubtedly play a decisive role in the battle between the two great masters of the Incarnation Realm!
The old master of ceremonies narrowed his eyes slightly and looked at the crowd with a smile. He could already imagine the scene of everyone competing with each other.
These immortal treasures were the defective products that were fortunately preserved when their Dahao Treasure Pavilion failed in refining. It would be a pity to throw them away, and a waste to use them, so it is very good to sell them in this way!
The auction started soon under the auspices of the old master of ceremonies.
The first item to be auctioned was the big golden hammer, and the starting price was 5 billion high-quality spirit stones!
The process went just as the old master of ceremonies had expected. After an extremely fierce bidding, it was finally purchased by the Six Gods Temple at a staggering price of 50 billion!
During this period, neither Gu Xiaoxing nor the man in black robe made a bid!
Because Gu Xiaoxing was not afraid of such threats, he could even see roughly how much power those remaining treasures of Tongxian could produce after they self-destructed.
It can indeed threaten the Great Perfection of the Spiritual Transformation. On this point, Dahao Baoge did not lie.
But Gu Xiaoxing felt that if they wanted to pose a threat to him, they would have to at least get ten of them to explode together.
The second item to be auctioned was the Linglong Pagoda, and the competition was even more intense!
The Six Gods Temple, in particular, seemed to want to obtain the second immortal treasure very much, and soon raised the price to a terrifying 70 billion!
However, there were some people who did not want them to succeed. As the mortal enemy of the Six Spiritual Palaces, the Shanhe Sect held on tightly.
After a lot of tug-of-war, they finally defeated the Six Divine Temples and obtained the Linglong Tower at a staggering price of 87 billion.
But Shanhe Sect was not happy about this at all, instead their faces were gloomy!
Even though they could see that the Six Spiritual Temple was suspected of deliberately raising the price.
But this is an open conspiracy, they have to accept it!
If the Six Spiritual Temples succeed in getting the two remaining treasures of the immortals, the consequences will be unpredictable!
It might even put the already weak Shanhe Sect into danger!
