Invincibility Begins with a Super Fairy Manny

Chapter 753: Chapter 753 Nine Revolutions Thunder Sovereign Bidding Competition (2nd Update)

At this moment, the first floor of the auction house in Zhongdu was packed with people.

People were whispering and discussing animatedly, enveloping the entire auction house in a cacophony of sounds.

Just then, an elder in a green robe stepped onto the stage and spoke.

“Ladies and gentlemen,”

The auction house gradually fell silent.

Because although his voice wasn’t loud, it reached every listener’s ears with utmost clarity.

This ability alone was sufficient to attest to the noteworthiness of the elder in the green robe.

He continued, “Firstly, welcome to all who have come. This auction has attracted many, including peerless powerhouses, making it a truly rare gathering. I hope everyone can obtain an item they desire. Now, I declare the auction officially open!”

With that, the first auction item was brought onto the stage.

“This is an Aurora Flower, originating from the North Mystic Nether Realm, of an extremely cold nature, aged over a thousand years. It can greatly benefit cultivators who practice Yin-based cultivation techniques. The starting bid is three hundred Immortal Crystals, with a minimum increase of ten Immortal Crystals. Let the bidding begin!”

This Aurora Flower was considered a fine specimen of Spiritual Medicine, especially with a millennium of potential efficacy, beneficial for elixir concoction or direct cultivation alike.

Hence, from the start, the atmosphere in the auction was lively, with the sound of bidding echoing continuously.

Eventually, the Aurora Flower was auctioned off for five hundred Immortal Crystals to a cultivator at the threshold of Half-step Longevity.

The successful sale of the first item ignited the environment of the entire auction house.

Given that the first item was such a Spiritual Medicine, many couldn’t help but look forward to the rest of the treasures that were yet to come.

Next, a feather was brought to the stage.

However, this feather was about a zhang long, and when the Jade Casket was opened, a surge of crimson flames leaped upwards.

“This is a feather from the Crimson Flame Divine Bird that resides in the southern flame swamps. The Crimson Flame Divine Bird is an Exotic Beast with the bloodline of the legendary Vermilion Bird, known for its unrivaled speed, capable of traveling a hundred thousand li in a single day. The bloodline powers of the divine bird are condensed in this feather, making it an exquisite material for crafting Flying Boats, exceptionally precious!”

“Bidding starts at eight hundred Immortal Crystals with a minimum raise of twenty!”

The elder in the green robe was evidently very professional, describing each auction item’s nature, special features, and wondrous aspects in great detail.

And indeed, this Crimson Flame feather was quite remarkable, hence it was ultimately sold for a high price of eleven hundred Immortal Crystals.

This was only the second auction item, and yet the atmosphere had already become incredibly heated.

As a result, the subsequent auction featured an endless array of rare exotic treasures and precious Spiritual Artifacts, with ceaseless bidding and staggering hammer prices emerging one after another.

In the end,

the elder in the green robe’s expression grew solemn, and he spoke loudly to the crowd, “Coming up next is the grand finale of this auction. I know many of you have come for this item, so please prepare your Immortal Crystals! Bring it up!”

At these words, the entire auction house fell silent.

Xue An gave a slight smile.

The private boxes on the second floor were sealed with layers of barriers, but they could not prevent Xue An’s Divine Sense from permeating through, allowing him to sense that the people inside were now sitting up straight.

It seemed that everyone was here for this item.

This piqued Xue An’s curiosity as well.

What could this item be?

At that moment, Bai Qing’er walked up to the stage, holding a Jade Casket with utmost care.

Seeing her personally presenting the auction item, many were astonished and let out hushed exclamations.

Who didn’t recognize the renown of Bai Qing’er, the head of her organization? For her to personally oversee this item indicated its extraordinary value.

Upon seeing Bai Qing’er step onto the stage, the elderly man in green retreated respectfully to the side.

Bai Qing’er placed the Jade Casket on the table and smiled before speaking.

“I’m sure the esteemed guests are anxious by now, so I won’t keep you in suspense. Please look!”

As she said this, she slowly lifted the lid of the Jade Casket.

A Sharp Flash suddenly pierced through the auction house; taken by surprise, many attendees were momentarily blinded and couldn’t keep their eyes open.

And then, within the Jade Casket, a sphere of light that seemed to be suffused with infinite thunder and lightning floated in the air, with branches of electric light occasionally reaching out.

The cultivators close by felt a shiver run through them, as even the air seemed to carry the scorched scent of being baked and burnt.

Xue An’s eyes lit up, “This is…?”

At that moment, Bai Qing’er offered a slight smile, “Ladies and gentlemen, as you can all see, this treasure has cost the hands of numerous strong contenders and even caused several Golden Immortals’ severe injuries, before it was finally captured from the Thunder Pond—the Nine Revolutions Thunder Sovereign!”

Boom!

The entire auction hall erupted into intense commotion.

Countless people were shaken.

“Heavens, does someone actually dare to capture Lei Zun from within the Thunder Pond?”

“And it’s the Nine Revolutions Thunder Sovereign, an entity that is merely one step away from achieving a Divine Position!”

“Hiss! This auction house really has made a bold move! To actually compel several Golden Immortals to embark on such a perilous task—just a slight misstep could lead to complete obliteration!”

Meanwhile, Xue An could feel rapid breathing emanating from several adjacent private boxes.

Clearly, all were shaken by this artifact.

Amid these restless noises, Bai Qing’er’s expression turned solemn, “I think there’s no need for me to elaborate on the wondrous aspects of this treasure. The auction begins now, starting at one hundred thousand Immortal Crystals, with a minimum increment of one thousand!”

One hundred thousand Immortal Crystals.

This starting price had already broken the historical transaction record of the entire Profound Thunder City’s auction house.

Yet no one was surprised.

Because the Nine Revolutions Thunder Sovereign was worth the price.

This was different from other heavenly and earthly treasures, for it was a conscious entity, not a divine beast or exotic beast, but a Thunder System treasure formed by the heavens and the earth.

If a cultivator who practiced thunder methods acquired it, they would be able to easily control the Nine Heavens Divine Thunder and their strength could skyrocket a hundredfold instantly.

And if it were to be incorporated into the forging of a Spiritual Artifact, it would yield a treasure with an Artifact Spirit inside.

Not to mention its other marvelous features.

Therefore, as soon as Bai Qing’er quoted the price, voices of bids began to resound one after another.

“I bid one hundred and ten thousand Immortal Crystals!” The first to bid was actually a cultivator sitting in the hall.

“One hundred and twenty thousand!” A steady voice came from a private box.

“One hundred and forty thousand!”

Nobody bothered with increments of one thousand; bids were directly jumping by ten or even twenty thousand.

Very quickly.

The price had shot to an astonishing two hundred and fifty thousand Immortal Crystals.

This price was enough to make countless people stare in disbelief.

After all, even a Sect might not be able to produce this many Immortal Crystals.

And the bidding had now reached a fever pitch.

The cultivator who started the bidding chuckled wryly and gave up the competition.

For it had exceeded his limit.

The ensuing contest took place entirely among the various private boxes on the second floor.

Gao Xinghai’s expression was impassive, as he had not uttered a word from the start.

His daughter, Gao Zuoyu, however, was growing impatient, “Father, why haven’t you placed a bid yet? The price is getting higher and higher!”

Gao Xinghai said frostily, “You don’t understand, bidding now will only drag us deeper into the fray. Only by waiting for the right moment to bid a high price suddenly can we stun everyone else and successfully procure the item!”

By this time, the price had risen to two hundred and ninety thousand Immortal Crystals.

The sounds of bidding halted momentarily.

Just then, Gao Xinghai declared in a deep voice, “Four hundred thousand Immortal Crystals!”
