Chapter 1401: Chapter 1399: Mysterious Token (Second Update)

Nalan Yunfei whispered a few words to the woman beside her, who then left.

”Hmph!”

Nalan Yunfei let out a cold laugh, a hint of ruthlessness flashing in her eyes.

At the auction, Luo Qianyu looked at Xiao Yifeng and said, ”You’re quite the showoff, aren’t you? Spending over a dozen Superior Grade Spirit Stones, you’re quite generous. That’s equivalent to over a hundred thousand Inferior Grade Spirit Stones!”

”Is that so? No matter!”

Xiao Yifeng said lightly, clearly not caring, as with a Spirit Mine at his disposal, a dozen Superior Grade Spirit Stones were just a drop in the bucket for him.

”I’ll give you ninety-nine points for this act, leaving one point just in case you get too proud!”

Luo Qianyu chuckled.

”Alright, let’s find a place to sit and see if there’s anything good today!”

Xiao Yifeng found an inconspicuous spot to sit. Soon, the entire auction venue gradually filled up.

The entire front row was empty, reserved for the Seven Great Sects of Heavenly Island.

Today, Tiancang Sect, Blood Mechanism Sect, Falling Water Sect, Tian Ce Manor, Jade Maiden Palace, and Hidden Sect all sent representatives. Nalan Yunfei came from Jade Maiden Palace, and the Vice Sect Leader Xu Huai represented Hidden Sect.

Looking at Xu Huai, Xiao Yifeng recalled the group from Hidden Sect that attacked him outside Hidden Sect last night, wondering if it was Xu Huai who sent them.

”Welcome everyone to the Sky Island Auction. Today’s auction will feature many treasures, I’m sure none of you will be disappointed!”

An elder with white hair stepped onto the auction stage, delivering a short speech before the auction officially began.

The first item up for auction was a Medium-grade Spirit Sword, attracting many bidders.

Even on Heavenly Island, a Medium-grade Spiritual Artifact is a rare find and highly valuable to the Great Sects.

Since Artifact Refiners no longer exist, not even on Heavenly Island, the weapons they possess have been handed down from the past. So having an additional Medium-grade Spiritual Artifact would be invaluable.

Hence, although the starting price for this Medium-grade Spirit Sword was one thousand Inferior Grade Spirit Stones, many people eagerly participated in the bidding, immediately stirring up the atmosphere in the auction.

”Tiancang Sect bids fifteen thousand Inferior Grade Spirit Stones!”

In the end, Tiancang Sect directly quoted a high price, deterring most people. Some who wished to continue bidding gave up due to Tiancang Sect’s status, and the other Sects chose not to compete with Tiancang Sect.

”Five Superior Grade Spirit Stones!”

Just as the people of Tiancang Sect assumed the Medium-grade Spirit Sword would be theirs, a sudden voice rang out, startling everyone present.

Immediately, all eyes turned toward the source of the voice, belonging to a man in a white robe wearing a mask—Xiao Yifeng, naturally.

Though this Medium-grade Spirit Sword did not interest Xiao Yifeng, acquiring it for his subordinates to use seemed worthwhile, so he bid on it.

Despite not seeing Xiao Yifeng’s true face, the sheer audacity of bidding five Superior Grade Spirit Stones, equivalent to fifty thousand Inferior Grade Spirit Stones, shocked many.

Meanwhile, the people of Tiancang Sect looked visibly displeased.

”Six Superior Grade Spirit Stones!”

Unwilling to concede, the people of Tiancang Sect continued to bid. Quitting now would be a blow to Tiancang Sect’s pride.

”Ten Superior Grade Spirit Stones!”

Xiao Yifeng bid without hesitation, causing another round of astonishment among the crowd, while the faces of the Tiancang Sect people twitched in frustration.

Though Tiancang Sect was one of the Seven Great Powers on Heavenly Island, parting with ten Superior Grade Spirit Stones for one Medium-grade Spirit Sword was still challenging.

”Thirteen Superior Grade Spirit Stones! This Spirit Sword shall belong to Tiancang Sect!”

A representative of Tiancang Sect declared, accentuating the words ’Tiancang Sect.’ It was clearly a reminder to Xiao Yifeng, warning him off.

”I don’t recognize any Tiancang Sect, twenty Superior Grade Spirit Stones!”

Xiao Yifeng replied bluntly, his words shaking everyone at the auction.

Someone dared to challenge Tiancang Sect, and spending twenty Superior Grade Spirit Stones on a Medium-grade Spirit Sword was sheer extravagance.

”Fine, I’ll remember you!”

The powerful Tiancang Sect member, with a cold glare, huffed and ceased further bidding.

Eventually, the Medium-grade Spirit Sword went to Xiao Yifeng, who handed over twenty Superior Grade Spirit Stones. This act left those nearby astonished; even the Seven Great Powers wouldn’t be so bold.

Subsequent auctions featured various weapons, elixirs, and spiritual medicines, but none caught Xiao Yifeng’s interest. However, several Superior Grade Spiritual Artifacts and Second Grade Elixirs were auctioned off.

Xiao Yifeng seized multiple items from Falling Water Sect and Blood Mechanism Sect with large bids, infuriating these two sects.

Xiao Yifeng became famous overnight for offending three of the Seven Great Powers, a feat few would dare.

Seeing Xiao Yifeng flaunt such wealth, many watched him with greedy eyes, clearly eyeing his fortune.

”Now, we’re auctioning off a token. Though we don’t know its purpose, its material is very special. Based on our research, it seems quite extraordinary. Starting bid: ten Inferior Grade Spirit Stones!”

The auctioneer presented a black token, causing a chorus of disappointment. No one here seemed interested, leaving the auctioneer awkward.

”Doesn’t this look just like the token Shengyi has?”

Xiao Yifeng eyed the token with intrigue. A similar token was among the items in Tang Shengyi’s ring, passed down by her father, adorned with an ancient script that was unreadable, just like this one.

”One Superior Grade Spirit Stone!”

Xiao Yifeng immediately bid, figuring that since Tang Shengyi had one, it must be significant. Better to acquire it now, as it might hide something ancient, akin to the Sheepskin Scroll Map.

”Uh? Why is everyone looking at me?”

Xiao Yifeng noticed that everyone’s gaze at the auction had turned towards him, leaving him momentarily stunned.
