Nine Revolutions Star Transformation

Chapter 440: Chapter 453: Star Crystal

Chu Linfeng’s words left the young lady stunned, unable to react for a while. ”I said the bid is sixty million Star Stones. Are you scared?”

”I’m sorry, Young Master. I was indeed shocked by that number. It’s not even fifty million now. Why did you raise it so much?” she asked in confusion, but still followed Chu Linfeng’s words and directly increased it to sixty million.

The sixty million Star Stones instantly shocked the entire venue. ”The third VIP room actually raised the bid to sixty million. It seems they are determined to win this time,” someone in the crowd immediately said.

”Indeed, the people from the third VIP room are not ordinary. Opening at sixty million Star Stones, it looks like this auction will be more exciting because of them,” another person commented.

”That’s for sure. Once this auction ends, there will be more drama. Canglan Ancient Land hasn’t been lively for a long time. This might be the start of a bloody storm,” someone added.

Although Chu Linfeng’s sixty million Star Stones were significant, there were still a few who were unwilling to give up on the Purple Jade Spirit King Fruit. Directly increasing a realm’s level is no small feat. Many people spend years or even decades trying to break through a realm, so such an opportunity is not to be missed by anyone.

”How does Young Master Feng have so many Star Stones? Could he really be from the Dark Divine Hall? Otherwise, I can’t think of any sect with such financial power,” Qing Ruming muttered to herself, sitting inside the VIP room.

”Young Master Feng, if you dare compete with me for the Purple Jade Spirit King Fruit, I will definitely show you my power once the auction ends. The sect specifically instructed that this must be obtained. Anyone blocking me will only meet death!” Young Master Lingxu yelled angrily.

The others were also shocked in their hearts; only Young Master Feiyu remained calm on his face. ”No matter who you are, you’ve stirred up a lot of anger today. Let’s see how you handle it after the auction,” he mused.

At this time, someone had already increased the bid to sixty-five million, but Chu Linfeng didn’t raise the price further. He was waiting—waiting for everyone else to place their bids before delivering a decisive blow that no one could surpass.

As time slowly passed, the bidding slowed significantly. When it reached eighty million, it essentially stopped. This eighty million was Young Master Lingxu’s bid.

People waited for a long time for a response from the third VIP room but were met with disappointment. The Grand Elder spoke up, ”Eighty million Star Stones for the first time!”

After roughly two minutes with no further bids, he called out again, ”Eighty million Star Stones for the second time!” Still no response, people felt completely dejected about the third VIP room.

Young Master Lingxu felt relieved in his heart, though he was quite annoyed that Young Master Feng had suddenly raised the price by a million. But just as he felt victory was within his grasp, an unexpected twist occurred.

Eighty million was pretty much his limit. He had brought a total of eighty million Star Stones, having already spent about twenty million on several items earlier. These were two million Star Stones he exchanged from items he carried with him. Now, there was nothing left worth exchanging—if someone added another five hundred thousand, he’d be in trouble.

The auction had rules: you couldn’t borrow from other rooms; it had to be Star Stones you have on you. Otherwise, if you liked something, you’d ask to borrow, and chaos would ensue.

The young lady turned to Chu Linfeng, ”Young Master, they’ve called twice already. If you don’t raise the bid, that Purple Jade Spirit King Fruit will be someone else’s.”

”Okay, then. Just raise the Star Stone count to one hundred million—I want to see who dares compete with me,” Chu Linfeng stated.

His words nearly scared the young lady into falling to the ground. One hundred million Star Stones might be the highest number to appear at an auction in years.

Just as the Grand Elder was about to announce the third eighty million call, the young lady immediately raised the bid to one hundred million. In that instant, nearly everyone stood up to look toward the third VIP room.

Raising the bid by twenty million Star Stones clearly intended to secure it without fail, while Young Master Lingxu sat powerlessly on the ground, hate burning in his eyes almost wanting to incinerate the young lady before him.

”Young Master Feng, how dare you oppose me! No matter who you are, I will fight to the death with you,” Young Master Lingxu shouted in fury.

”This kid has some capital, eh? To have one hundred million Star Stones on him is quite surprising. But even if he obtains the Purple Jade Spirit King Fruit, he won’t be able to enjoy it. The fruit must be consumed on the night of the full moon for effectiveness. With three days until the full moon, once the auction ends, even if the Daylight Sect doesn’t kill him, that kid Lingxu won’t let him go,” Young Master Feiyu murmured to the girl in his arms.

”Young Master, you’re amazing! I almost can’t take it,” the girl gasped breathlessly.

”I haven’t even used my strength yet, otherwise that place would already be ruined,” Young Master Feiyu replied and began moving again...

”One hundred million Star Stones! Is there anyone willing to bid over one hundred million Star Stones?” The Grand Elder stood at the auction table, extremely excited. In all his years hosting auctions, this was the first time the price reached such heights.

In the end, no one else raised their bid, and Chu Linfeng successfully obtained the Purple Jade Spirit King Fruit. But his heart was not elated, not because spending so many Star Stones made him sad, but because he knew a battle awaited him once the auction concluded.

”Lin Feng, you need not worry excessively. This might be your Green Frost Sect’s chance to rise. If I’m not mistaken, there must be people from your Green Frost Sect in this auction venue. Such a grand event has no reason not to attend. You understand my point, don’t you?” Sword Spirit suddenly spoke up.

”Yes, I know what to do. If anyone truly dares attempt anything against me, I don’t mind killing a few,” Chu Linfeng replied.

With the Fire Dragon King’s help, Chu Linfeng didn’t regard those from the Ninth Layer of Divine Martial Realm lightly. Perhaps this truly was an opportunity to rise.

The auction had ended, and now it was time to distribute the auctioned items. Chu Linfeng sat in the VIP room, patiently waiting. Naturally, the Grand Elder personally delivered the Purple Jade Spirit King Fruit to him. When Chu Linfeng took out the Star Crystal, the Grand Elder looked at him as if he’d seen a ghost.

”What, this Star Crystal isn’t worth one hundred million Star Stones?” Chu Linfeng asked, puzzled. If that were the case, he’d be in trouble. Deliberately disrupting an auction would have severe consequences, especially with such a large amount; he might face a worldwide manhunt.

”No—no, it’s just that Young Master actually possessing a Star Crystal is truly eye-opening for an old man like me. This Star Crystal is worth far more than one hundred million Star Stones. Is Young Master truly willing to exchange it for Star Stones?” the Grand Elder asked excitedly.

”I only have this Star Crystal on me, so naturally I’ll use it for exchange. Otherwise, how would I pay the hundred million Star Stones?” Chu Linfeng responded, though the Grand Elder’s expression suggested the Star Crystal was far more valuable than a mere hundred million Star Stones...
