Chapter 638 Ch 638: Deep Sea Essence Crystal
This Golden Flame Stone was the size of an adult's fist. The moment it was brought out, the room's atmosphere suddenly changed. Even the temperature of the room rose by some degree.
"This is..."
The old man was shocked and a puzzled expression appeared on his face before his expression turned into that of astonishment.
As expected of someone from the higher-ups of the Hundred Treasured Pavilion, he was able to recognize the Golden Flame Stone. He had a dumbstruck on his face as he spoke in a trembling voice, "How is this possible? How could you find... Sigh!"
The old man stopped in the middle of his speech and then looked at Ye Xiao and said, "Young man, I'm Vice President of this branch of the Hundred Treasure Pavilion. My name is Mang Baihu, you can call me Elder Mang. I'll not beat around the bush and directly come to the point. Can you sell this Golden Flame Stone directly to my Hundred Treasured Pavilion? We are ready to give you 500 million High-Grade Immortal Stones. How about it?"
The lady who brought the old man here trembled for a moment when she heard the price given by the old man. She then looked at Ye Xiao in astonishment. When she remembered what Ye Xiao told her before, she could not help but take a few deep breaths to calm her heart that was pumping violently.
Ye Xiao shook his head and said, "Elder Mang, since you know this is Golden Flame Stone, you should know how rare it is. I'm afraid, there might not be a hundred pieces of this stone in the entire Upper Realm and those pieces have yet to be discovered by others. So... I don't think I'll sell this stone directly to your Treasure Pavilion. I want to put this stone for auction!"
The old man took deep breaths. He already knew that no one will choose directly to sell a treasure like the Golden Flame Stone. Auctioning a treasure like this can bring a huge profit.
But Elder Mang was not disappointed. He had already planned to send someone representing his Hundred Treasure Pavilion to participate in the bidding of this Golden Flame Stone. No matter what, the Hundred Treasure Pavilion could not miss such a great opportunity.
Elder Mang nodded his head and said, "Since you want to put the Golden Flame Stone for auction, I'll do that. Here, take this token. This is the token representing that you have put the Golden Flame Stone for auction. The auction charge is 10% of the final bidding for your item. If there is anything else you can tell me!"
Ye Xiao didn't say anything. He was not lacking when it comes to money. He choose to put the Golden Flame Stone for auction because he knew, once the Golden Flame Stone appeared in public, many powerful forces will come out and fight for it. He wanted to see what Hu Bin will do in a situation like that.
When it come to the Golden Flame Stone, Ye Xiao understood very well that even the weakest of the Sacred Land like the Spirit Martial Sacred Land will not give a face to the Immortal Heaven Sacred Land and fight to win the Golden Flame Stone no matter what it takes.
Ye Xiao took the token from Elder Mang and then shook his head, saying, "That's all for now. I just come back in three days to participate in the auction."
"Oh! Since that's the case, take this card. This is the card for our VIP room. You can comfortably participate in the auction from the VIP room!"
Ye Xiao didn't refuse, he took the card and left the Hundred Treasure Pavilion. Now, all he need to do was to wait for the start of the auction.
.....
Three days later, Ye Xiao once again went to the Hundred Treasured Pavilion and by showing the VIP card, he was led to a VIP room by a beautiful maid.
This room was not much much bigger, but it has all the materials of comfort. Ye Xiao sat down on a sofa and spread his Divine Sense to take a look at everyone who came here to participate in this auction.
Very soon, he caught sight of a beautiful woman who was sitting in the room next to his. This was really fate, fate actually brought them together once again without them knowing. Ye Xiao immediately wanted to go and meet Xue Xiaofei but he stopped and didn't rush.
Since he had already planned to give her a surprise, he decided not to ruin his own plan. It is not like Xue Xiaofei was running away somewhere and he could not find her.
Ye Xiao kept observing Xue Xiaofei for a while. Inside the room, other than her, there were three other people. Two people were the elders of the Spirit Martial Sacred Land and the only lady other than Xue Xiaofei was actually her disciple.
They were currently talking about how to compete against the people of Immortal Heaven Sacred Land and other Sacred Lands to win the treasure they wanted from this auction.
A smile appeared on Ye Xiao's face. He softly shook his head and then started to look at other people present in other VIP rooms.
Soon, he discovered Hu Bin. Hu Bin was laughing and chatting with a few elders of his sect. He hugged two beauties both left and right and was squeezing their breasts from time to time, having fun with them.
A smirk appeared on Ye Xiao's face and the next moment, killing intent burst out from his body.
Surprisingly, no one other than Hu Bin felt the Killing Intent and could not help but tremble. He even let go of the two beauties in his arm and knelt down on his knees, shaking heavily in fear.
Ye Xiao's killing intent also contained the pressure from his aura. In front of his Dao Tribulation Stage aura, how could Hu Bin not be scared?
Ye Xiao immediately retracted his aura and looked at the other side.
.....
"Young Lord, what happened?"
Seeing Hu Bin kneeling down and trembling in fear, one of the elders present inside the room immediately took two steps forward and supported Hu Bin to stand up and sit on the sofa once again.
"Wh-Who was that? Who dares to target this Lord?"
After calming down, Hu Bin shouted out loud, attracting others' attention.
It has to be known that Hu Bin was the son of the Leader of Immortal Heaven Sacred Land. How could he bear the humiliation of kneeling down on the ground by someone unknown's aura?
He was about to explode out in anger but was held down by the elder who helped him stand up. That elder said, "Young Lord, this is not the time to do this. You should bear for a while. This is the Hundred Treasured Pavilion, it is not a force against which our Immortal Heaven Sacred Land could fight. After going out of the Hundred Treasured Pavilion, you can do whatever you want and no one will stop you!"
Hu Bin took a deep breath and calmed down his breath. He suppressed his anger in his heart. Then he snorted coldly, "Try to look for the person who had just targeted me, it's up to you to do it secretly or in open."
"Yes, young lord!"
.....
"Hello everyone, I'm Ma Wang, the head auctioneer of this auction. I'll come straight to the point. Everyone here knows the rules of the auction. The highest bidder will win the item."
"Now, let the auction start."
"The first item is a Top Grade Immortal Rank Formation Plate, Divine Thunder Formation. The starting price of this Formation Plate is one hundred thousand High-Grade Immortal Stone."
"100,000 High-Grade Immortal Stones!"
"120,000 High-Grade Immortal Stones!"
"150,000 High-Grade Immortal Stones!"
"....."
The fight to win the formation plate immediately started. And very soon, the first item was sold for a total of 300,000 High-Grade Immortal Stones.
Then came the second item, third item, the fourth item, and the fifth...
The auction continued. After about two hours, the auctioneer finally brought a shining blue stone on the platform and said, "Everyone, this is the fifteenth item of this auction. This stone is called the Deep Sea Essence Crystal. As the name says itself, the Deep Sea Essence Crystal is formed from years of condensation of Water Essence at the depth of the Endless Sea."
"Deep Sea Essence Crystal can be used to forge any water-attribute weapon. It can also be used to enhance the cultivation if one is cultivating a water-attribute or ice-attribute cultivation technique. Not only this, but it can also strengthen one's body if one possesses a water-attributed body!"
"The starting price of this piece of Deep Sea Essence Crystal is a million High-Grade Immortal Stones. Every increase in bid must be at least 100,000 High-Grade Immortal Stones. Now, let the bid start!"
