Chapter 1188 - Hundred Forms Silver Soul Flower
"Fellow cultivators, welcome to the Linran Dragon Lunar Private Gathering . I'm the Vice City Lord of Linran City, Guan Hai . I will be the Master of Ceremonies for the auction this time, please go easy on me . "
An intelligent-looking middle-aged man landed at the front of the hall facing the crowd with a smile, leaving a grand first impression .
"I won't waste any further time on words . We'll now start with the first item, the Eight Lunar Flame, starting at thirty thousand God Stones . Each bid needs to be at least five thousand God Stones higher than the previous price . "
As Guan Hai spoke, six seventh-layer Martial Progenitors carried a giant ice crystal box to the front, and inside it was a strange flame burning slowly .
The temperature of the palace suddenly increased .
The cultivators' eyes flickered, as they did not expect such an extraordinary treasure to be the first item .
"Forty thousand God Stones!"
"Fifty-five thousand God Stones!"
Several calls could be heard .
The atmosphere in the palace gradually became lively .
The Eight Lunar Flame was auctioned off within a short period of time . The rest of the items were presented to the crowd too .
Time gradually passed . Half an hour later, more than half of the items were sold .
"The next item is known as the Misery Ocean Brew, which is a very rare kind of magical wine . The starting price is ten thousand God Stones and each bid has to be at least a thousand God Stones higher than the previous bid . "
As Guan Hai finished introducing the item, the moment he took out a jade jar from his ring, the sound of rolling waves could be heard as the exact vision appeared in the air, which brought a hint of misery to the crowd .
"Misery Ocean Brew? Deep within misery is said to be the opposite shore1 . Who would have thought the wine had such a great illustration behind it . It would be a good gift for the Princess . "
Qin Nan mumbled in his heart as he proceeded to yell out his price .
"Twenty thousand God Stones . "
It was all his possessions at the time being .
Many cultivators who were previously intrigued by the wine immediately shook their heads hearing the bid .
Dong Kuo and his crew were busy fawning upon Ning Jianfei, thus they did not interfere with the bid . He ended up winning the bid in the end .
"Brother Duan Qing, you like to drink?" Zhan Xiaoxian asked in a curious tone . Normal people would not be willing to spend twenty thousand God Stones on wine .
Qin Nan was about to answer as a sudden thought crossed his mind, causing him to respond with a smile, "I do like it . "
He had never had any interest in wine before, but he did like it now .
Wine was actually not bad company .
Especially when he was drinking with the Princess .
After a minor interlude, the auction continued .
However, what confused the cultivators was the fact that Ning Jianfei had remained silent throughout the entire auction .
Finally, Guan Hai wore a mysterious smile as he said, "Everyone, this will be the final item for this auction . It's the Hundred Forms Silver Soul Flower, and I believe I wouldn't need to explain what it uses are? The starting price is three hundred thousand God Stones, and each bid must be at least fifty thousand higher than the previous call . "
At the same time, a giant purple box was brought out . At its center stood a one zhang tall herb with silver petals .
Unlike other herbs, apart from the petals, the color of its branches and leaves continually changed between red and blue .
"The Hundred Forms Silver Soul Flower?"
"Gasp, it actually is the Hundred Forms Silver Soul Flower . According to the rumors, once a person refines it, their Martial Tree will also inherit its rare phenomenon, which would significantly increase its power!"
"I didn't expect to see such a remarkable herb here!"
"Five hundred thousand God Stones!"
"Six hundred thousand God Stones! That's pretty much all I got now!"
The eyes of the cultivators became fiery after they recovered from the initial shock . Many clenched their teeth and decided to go all out with their possessions!
Within a few breaths' time, the price had increased to a million God Stones!
Seeing this, Qin Nan immediately yelled, "Two million God Stones!"
He immediately bid with double the price .
Since the Anti-Heaven Alliance was paying the price, Qin Nan would not hesitate to call it .
"Two million God Stones?"
The cultivators were stunned, as they never thought this Duan Qing would start bidding with such an insane price .
Most of the cultivators shook their heads and gave up . Only a few were still hesitating to make a decision . At this rate, it was most likely that they would need to pay a great price to secure the Hundred Forms Silver Soul Flower .
However, at that instant, a loud voice could be heard, "I'm here specifically for this Hundred Forms Silver Soul Flower . Two million one hundred thousand God Stones . It shall be mine . "
The voice sounded extremely calm as if the Hundred Forms Silver Soul Flower were already his .
The owner of the voice was none other than Ning Jianfei himself .
Hearing this, the cultivators who had previously been hesitating immediately gave up on their thoughts .
It was no longer a matter about God Stones . Ning Jianfei was a genius ranked on the God Ranking and an inner disciple of the South-Heaven Sacred Ground, thus making him proud and arrogant . If they dared to bid for it, they would need to suffer his wrath .
Qin Nan's lips curled upward slightly .
As he expected, the reason why the Anti-Heaven Alliance wanted him to secure the Hundred Forms Silver Soul Flower was to let him go against Ning Jianfei .
Qin Nan yelled again without hesitation .
"Four million God Stones . "
The few words were enough to stun the entire crowd .
They were not shocked hearing the bid, but the fact that this Duan Qing was daring enough to compete with Ning Jianfei for the item .
Didn’t Duan Qing know that he would offend Ning Jianfei if he continued to bid for it?
"Brother Duan Qing, you . . . "
Zhan Xiaoxian opened her eyes wide, as she too was shocked .
In the other booth, Dong Kuo, the woman from the Undead Tribe, and the man from the Lightning Tribe were stunned for a second, before their hearts were filled with joy .
They had initially planned to provoke Ning Jianfei so he would pick on Duan Qing, but it seemed like Duan Qing had done it himself .
What an idiot .
"How bold!"
Four loud yells could be heard .
The four disciples of the South-Heaven Sacred Ground walked out from the booth with cold looks .
"This is the City Lord’s Mansion . Please think twice if you are to stir any kind of trouble here . "
An icy voice was heard, which belonged to Guan Hai .
Even though he had no intention of offending the people of the South-Heaven Sacred Ground, it was still their territory . They would be seen as laughing stocks if they failed to maintain the order .
"Stay back . "
Ning Jianfei said in a calm tone .
The four disciples nodded . They glared in the direction of Qin Nan's booth before returning to theirs .
Inside the booth, Ning Jianfei's gaze finally changed as his eyes flickered with a hint of murderous intent .
He never thought a mere rogue cultivator would dare to try and compete with him .
"I remember your name, it's Duan Qing, right? You will bid five million God Stones for the Hundred Forms Silver Soul Flower and bring it to me . I will forgive you for what you've done and spare your life . "
