Ancient Dragon Elephant Technique

Everyone’s gaze turned toward the woman who had made the bid. She wore a black robe and a veil, concealing her face. Her identity was unknown!

The Mysterious Woman!!

This was the first impression many people had of her.

The vice hierarch of the Azure Sky Sect looked displeased, as the maximum amount of funds he could mobilize was one hundred and eighty million, but it was clear he could not compete with this mysterious woman.

”This Miss has bid two hundred million, any higher bids?”

”Two hundred million for the first time! Two hundred million for the second time! Two hundred million for the third time!”

”Sold.”

Bang!

The gavel fell, and the third batch of auction items was sold!

Following this, a maid walked onto the auction stage holding the remaining four bottles of Ancient Body Tempering Liquid.

”We have the last batch left, which is four bottles of Body Tempering Liquid!”

Zhuge Zheng said, ”Not hiding anything from everyone here, you should know which aristocratic family stands behind our auction house.”

Many nodded, understanding naturally—it was the Ancient Jiang Family!

In the Ancient Era, the Bronze Sparrow Platform had granted divine status to the Ancient Jiang Family, an aristocratic family so old it was hard to imagine!

”According to our chairman, these ten bottles of Body Tempering Liquid were not refined by the alchemists of our Ancient Jiang Family because the quality of our family’s refining cannot reach such purity. And now, only these four bottles are left!”

Zhuge Zheng explained.

”What? This isn’t the Ancient Jiang Family’s Body Tempering Liquid?”

”My God, is what Zhuge Zheng is saying true? The Body Tempering Liquid from the Ancient Jiang Family doesn’t reach the purity of the liquid right before us? Who refined this liquid?”

Many gasped, and many influential figures were moved.

They had originally thought that this Body Tempering Liquid was refined by the alchemists of the Ancient Jiang Family, especially since the miss of the Jiang Family had come to True Martial Country, it was an easy association to make.

But now they learned it wasn’t what everyone had thought!

The Body Tempering Liquid that even the Ancient Jiang Family couldn’t refine was indeed precious, and moreover, only four bottles were left.

”Amazing, amazing. Zhuge Zheng threw out this important news at the last minute, just to make these great powers go crazy for once at the end. If he had mentioned it earlier, when there were ten bottles, these people would have competed more rationally. But now, they can no longer be rational, because only four bottles are left!”

Lin Feng was moved internally and couldn’t help admiring Zhuge Zheng’s ”professionalism,” deciding to reward him handsomely later.

After all, he was now quite wealthy!

Lin Feng suddenly realized he felt a bit like a nouveau riche.

But indeed, he had become rich overnight!

...

Ouyang Jing smiled and said, ”Ladies and gentlemen, the last four bottles of Ancient Body Tempering Liquid start at a base price of four hundred thousand! Each increment must not be less than forty thousand Gold Coins. Take the opportunity well, for if you miss this chance, you may never get such Ancient Body Tempering Liquid again. Let the bidding start now.”

The entire auction fell into a silence as deep as death, where one could hear a pin drop.

No one made the first bid!

”Five hundred thousand!” a cultivator raised his hand and said.

”Hush...” This immediately drew a barrage of boos.

Did he really think he could buy the four bottles of Ancient Body Tempering Liquid for a mere five hundred thousand?

Five hundred thousand might let you smell them, that’s it.

However, once the first person spoke up, the silence was broken, and soon people started bidding.

The price soared crazily, quickly surpassing one billion!

But Lin Feng knew that the real show had just begun. The big figures from the ancient forces had not yet made their moves.

When the price reached two billion, the ancient families also began to participate.

An elder from the Murong Family of Sun Moon City raised the price to ”three billion!”

But this still didn’t stop the frenzy.

”Three hundred and ten million!”

...

”Three hundred and fifty million!”

...

”Four hundred million”

...

Many spectators were left agape; the price of a single bottle of Body Tempering Liquid had astonishingly soared to a staggering hundred million.

When the bid reached four hundred million, those competing were primarily Ancient Noble Families or some ancient sects, teaching factions, and other forces.

Only such forces could flaunt such financial prowess and bring forth such a huge sum to vie for the ”Ancient Body Tempering Liquid”!

The Great Elder of Wind Cloud Pavilion shouted a new price, ”Four hundred and ten million!”

The Deputy Sect Master of Thunder Cloud Sect then raised the bid to ”Four hundred and twenty million!”

The competition was fierce and unparalleled.

The price escalated at a shocking pace.

Finally, a middle-aged man offered ten billion gold coins!!

The major figures from the powerful forces slightly changed their expressions; even for them, a sky-high price of ten billion required serious consideration.

”People from All Laws Pavilion!”

Someone recognized the identity of the middle-aged man, a person with an extraordinary background.

All Laws Pavilion, a force that inherited the Spirit Array Master tradition in East County Divine Land.

Remember, on the Heavenly Martial Continent’s Three Thousand States!!

The most esteemed are the Spirit Array Masters. To set up Guardian Arrays for families and the like, one must seek the help of a Spirit Array Master. Countless people are indebted to these Spirit Array Masters, who are also immensely wealthy.

The venue fell into silence!

”All Laws Pavilion’s Elder Yu has raised the bid to ten billion gold coins; is there anyone offering higher?” Zhuge Zheng looked around with a smiling face.

Some people were frowning, seemingly weighing the pros and cons!

Competing with All Laws Pavilion for this Ancient Body Tempering Liquid was no easy task.

Matching All Laws Pavilion financially was indeed challenging; many sighed profoundly and ultimately chose to withdraw from the contention!

”Is it in hand?”

Elder Yu of All Laws Pavilion curled his lips into a smile.

”Ladies and gentlemen!! This is one of the only four bottles of Ancient Body Tempering Liquid. Who knows when next you might see this? Please consider it carefully.”

Ouyang Jing smiled charmingly, adding fuel to the fire, hoping someone else would come forth to compete with Elder Yu of All Laws Pavilion.

The higher the auction price, the higher the commission for the auctioneer!

Thus, both Zhuge Zheng and Ouyang Jing spared no effort in driving up the price!

Elder Yu of All Laws Pavilion couldn’t help but roll his eyes, inwardly cursing that auctions were truly a place to trap people. The price was already so high, yet they still wanted to incite others to compete against him—a bunch of ruthless swindlers who showed no mercy. Of course, Elder Yu would not say these words aloud, and All Laws Pavilion would not offend the auction house, as the forces behind it were too powerful.

”Elder Yu, it seems you will have to forgo this item!”

Suddenly, a voice rang out.

Everyone looked over and discovered that the speaker was none other than Han Zihua, the City Lord of Junzi City!

Han Zihua smiled slightly and said, ”I bid twenty billion!”

”Twenty billion?” Suddenly, a chorus of gasps echoed throughout the auction house!

A single auction item fetching twenty billion was absolutely a record price!

It was also the highest single transaction amount since the establishment of True Martial Country’s auction house!

Twenty billion gold coins piled up were akin to a mountain of gold.
