“410,000 spirit stones!”

“420,000 spirit stones!”

Even though the auction is already at 400,000 spirit stones, which is worth 4 billion gold, the atmosphere there did not quiet down and remained as tense as ever. In fact, it was only getting more tense.

“450,000 spirit stones!”

“470,000 spirit stones!”

“500,000 spirit stones!”

When the spirit stones reached 500,000 spirit stones, someone there suddenly increased the bid significantly.

“One million spirit stones!”

Many bidders there turned to look at the person who just spoke with raised eyebrows.

While nobody there doubted for a second that the bid wouldn’t reach that price point, they didn’t want such an exciting auction to end so early. After all, they could simply bid their maximum budget at one go and call it a day.

However, that would be boring, and such actions are frowned upon in auctions, sort of like an unspoken rule.

“Slow down, Bai Ning. I know you want the Flood Dragon’s scale very badly, but let’s enjoy ourselves in this unprecedented event that might never happen again. Furthermore, you wouldn’t want the auction to end in an instant, do you? This might be your last chance looking at the Flood Dragon’s scale so closely, after all.” Someone there called out the individual, publicly shaming him.

“If you don’t shut up, I will increase it by another million,” said the man in a sneering manner.

“1,010,000 spirit stones!”

The people there continued to bid shortly after.

Inside the VIP room, Xiao Hua suddenly raised her eyebrows.

She turned to look at Feng Yuxiang and said, “Phoenix, I can sense Brother Yuan’s presence in this place…”

Feng Yuxiang immediately snapped her head at her and exclaimed in a low voice, “What?! Impossible! What’s he doing here?!”

She quickly tried to sense Yuan’s presence through their servant and master connection, and sure enough, she was able to sense his presence as well, albeit a little faint.

“W-What is the Young Master doing here?! If he finds out that we’re selling the Flood Dragon’s scale to help him, he might be a little upset…”

“I don’t think Brother Yuan will be upset.” Xiao Hua said.

“But just to be safe, we should keep this a secret from him until we know how he feels about the auction.” Feng Yuxiang sighed.

The auction continued for another thirty minutes, reaching two million spirit stones.

“Heavens, it’s already 20 billion gold… Just how much wealth do these cultivators have?” Yuan mumbled in a dazed voice.

He thought having a couple billion of gold was already wealthy, but compared to these powerhouses, it was like a drop of water in the ocean.

“If you think about it, they had thousands of years to save up this much money.” Chu Liuxiang said.

“Gold coins are still considered mortal currency, so it’s not abnormal that they have so many. Spirit stones are the true currency for cultivators. One million spirit stones may be an astronomical amount for mortals since they automatically convert it to gold, but for cultivators, a million spirit stones is just one million spirit stones. And with cultivators monopolizing spirit stone caves, it should be easier for them to acquire spirit stones.” Lan Yingying said.

“Oh, right. Spirit Stone Caves. I nearly forgot about their existence, but that makes a lot more sense.” Yuan said.

“Three million spirit stones!”

The Flood Dragon’s scale reached a new milestone very quickly.

After another hour, the highest bid reached 5 million spirit stones.

“Five million spirit stones! The Healing Spirit Academy has bid 5 million spirit stones! Do we have any more bids?!” Gu Xiulan announced.

“5,500,000 spirit stones!” The Sect Master of the Lonely River Academy raised the bid from the VIP section.

“6,000,000!” The patriarch of the Gu Family shouted.

“7 million!” A man that most did not recognize increased the bid by another million.

By now the bids were increasing by large increments of over 500,000 spirit stones. In other words, it was time for the real auction to begin.

And in just a couple of minutes, the highest bid went from 7 million all the way to 12 million spirit stones!

“Whoever this Flood Dragon’s scale belongs to… They are going to be rich after this auction…” Yuan mumbled as he watched the bid increase by another 3 million, reaching 15 million spirit stones within a matter of moments.

“15 million! Does anyone have better than 15 million?!” Gu Xiulan exclaimed with excitement.

“20 million!” A familiar voice suddenly resounded in the building.

‘This voice… Senior Nie?’ Yuan recognized this voice as Senior Nie, the Spirit King who descended to the Lower Heavens to oversee the Mystic Realm.

“Oh! Senior Nie of the Heavenly Academy has bid 20 million spirit stones!”

The auction came to a halt for the first time after reaching 20 million.

20 million spirit stones could support an entire sect the size of the Seven Spirit Academies for many years, and to use it to buy a single treasure, it made even the richest people there hesitant.

Furthermore, the Heavenly Academy is the strongest and most influential out of the Seven Spirit Academies. It would be unwise to fight them even though it was an auction.

“20 million spirit stones going once!”

“Going twice!”

“And sold! Congratulations to Senior Nie of the Heavenly Academy for acquiring the Flood Dragon’s scale for 20 million spirit stones!” Gu Xiulan announced the winner of the auction.

“So it’s finally done, huh. It’s unfortunate that we couldn’t get the Flood Dragon’s scale now, but once we reach the fourth heaven, I will hunt some Flood Dragon for you. Surely, they must drop more than one scale, right?” Yuan said to Chu Liuxiang.

“It’s fine, Yuan. It’s your thoughts that really count.” Chu Liuxiang showed a heartwarming smile.

“Now that the auction is over, let’s return to the hotel,” she continued.

“Yes… Hm? Wait a second. I can sense Feng Feng and Xiao Hua’s presence nearby. I think they’re closeby.” Yuan suddenly said.
