1431 Silently Making a Fortune (1/2)
Chapter 1431 - Silently Making a Fortune
With a God Lord taking action, the Ancient Gods in the bidding war became somewhat more restrained. Every God Lord of the Ancient Desolate Realm of Gods could not be underestimated, and Xin Wuheng was incredibly young, presumably meaning that he had some powerful backer. Besides, this price far exceeded the actual price of the Life Spirit Heaven Pearl Fruit.
In addition, the auction had just begun, so there was a chance that an object with a similar effect would be shown later on.
Suddenly, a raspy and teasing voice called, ”Three hundred twenty thousand.”
Everyone turned to see who this was, but this mysterious figure was shrouded in pitch-black fog. However, everyone near this person sense a terrifying energy that made them involuntarily tremble.
In the Divine Kingdom Trading Ring, quite a few people would conceal their energy or obscure everything about themselves, just like this mysterious man in the pitch-black fog.
Zhao Feng couldn't help but use his left eye to see through the fog. This mysterious bidder was clearly hostile to Xin Wuheng.
He was quickly able to make out the figure in the fog.
”God Lord Evil Spirits?” Zhao Feng couldn’t help but blurt out.
The person bidding against Xin Wuheng was a God Lord of Ancient Soul Hall, and he was none other than God Lord Evil Spirit, who Zhao Feng and Xin Wuheng pushed back together some time ago.
”Three hundred thirty thousand!” Xin Wuheng's expression darkened as he continued to bid.
”Three hundred forty thousand.”
”Three hundred fifty thousand!” Xin Wuheng's face turned dark and furious, but he remained stubborn and apparently intent on getting his way.
”Heh, four hundred thousand!” God Lord Evil Spirit gave an evil chuckle. After a momentary pause, he continued to bid. In his view, Xin Wuheng had let the blood get to his head, and the Giant God Race appeared to have a burning desire for this resource and would not let it go so easily.
But to his surprise:
”Since you like it so much, I'll give it to you.” Xin Wuheng suddenly calmed down and faintly smiled.
”This...” God Lord Evil Spirit was instantly struck dumb.
He was originally hiking the price intentionally so that Xin Wuheng would suffer a loss, but he never expected for Xin Wuheng to give up. It was now apparent that Xin Wuheng had been acting the whole time, and now, he was paying far more than the Life Spirit Heaven Pearl Fruit was actually worth.
”Congratulations to Guest 405 for obtaining the Life Spirit Heaven Pearl Fruit for a price of four hundred thousand!” The white-robed auctioneer smiled.
The Life Spirit Heaven Pearl Fruit was only the appetizer for this auction. It was only worth around two hundred thousand high-quality God Crystals, but it had been auctioned off for a final price of four hundred thousand. This was already very surprising.
A second and third item were auctioned off, each of them extremely rare and precious, though not to the level of the Life Spirit Heaven Pearl Fruit.
”We are now auctioning the Blazing Cloud Divine Saber, a supreme-quality divine artifact of rather decent quality. It contains the pure energy of golden flames and is incredibly powerful when used in attacks. It originates from the 21st ranked Blazing Gold Race!” the white-robed elder introduced.
Zhao Feng's eyes flashed. This Blazing Cloud Divine Saber was one of the many supreme-quality divine artifacts he was auctioning off, and it was one of the better-quality ones. Although the Blazing Cloud Divine Saber could be considered an entire level lower than the Nine Lightning Soul-Refining Mirror, it was actually a little higher when compared to the Spacetime Robe.
”Damn, that is…the Blazing Cloud Divine Saber!” A woman’s infuriated voice came from a blazing fire in the auction house.
”Heh, a Blazing Gold Race God Lord.” Zhao Feng's left eye was able to see through the fiery light and spot the beautiful old woman within.
The Blazing Gold Race had three God Lords in all. With God Lord Fire Cloud dead, the only ones left were this old woman and the patriarch.
”Supreme-quality divine artifact Blazing Cloud Divine Saber! The bidding starts at one million, and each new bid must increase by at least ten thousand!” the white-robed elder announced.
Til pay one million twenty thousand!”
”One million forty!”
”1.1 million!”
”1.5 million!”
There were many cultivators of the Metal and Fire Dao. Thus, even if the Blazing Cloud Divine Saber was not of particularly high quality, there were still many people competing over it. In just a short while, the price of this supreme-quality divine artifact had reached one million five hundred thousand, and it was getting larger.
At this moment, the Blazing Gold Race God Lord stepped forward.
”Everyone, return this divine artifact to this elderly one. Two million!” The old woman spoke in a pleasant voice while also exuding scorching God Lord energy.
A supreme-quality divine artifact on the level of the Blazing Cloud Divine Saber only had a value of around one million seven hundred thousand. Since the Blazing Gold Race God Lord's bid already exceeded the actual price, this request was not very excessive. In addition, she exuded her God Lord energy so that she could take back this divine artifact of the Blazing Gold Race for a somewhat smaller price.
When a God Lord spoke up, people would normally give them a little face. Moreover, the auction had only begun, and there would probably be many more supreme-quality divine artifacts. Thus, the vast majority of people gave up on bidding.
”2.1 million.” Zhao Feng faintly smiled, lowering the tone of his voice before speaking so that the other party couldn't identify him.
”2.15 million!” The old woman's eyes chilled.
After the war, the Blazing Gold Race had suffered severe damage to its middle and upper echelons. Thus, it truly required the Blazing Cloud Divine Saber, and this wasn't even considering that the Blazing Cloud Divine Saber belonged to the Blazing Gold Race in the first place.
Moreover, she had already spoken out as a God Lord. The fact that someone was continuing to compete with her displeased her and made her even less willing to submit.
”2.2 million.” Zhao Feng immediately bid.
”Brother Feng, you're so bad!” Zhao Yufei's beautiful eyes flashed as she smiled. She naturally knew that Zhao Feng was the one to put up this item for auction.
”Hah, the other party bidding is a Blazing Gold Race God Lord. Otherwise, I would never do something like this.” After softly chuckling Zhao Feng stated another price; ”2.4 million!”
”2.5 million!” The old woman was trembling in rage, and she wanted nothing more than to rush up there and see who exactly was competing with her.
Earlier, she had speculated that perhaps this bidder truly needed this divine artifact, but now, she was sure that this person was hostile to her and was intentionally raising the price.
