Chapter 1526: The Auction Begins Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

In any case, these five old monsters did not know his true identity, as he had used a code name, the King of Hell.

“Everyone in Sky Sword City, listen up!”

“The auction will be held tonight at nine o’clock!”

“You can now buy tickets to enter the venue!”

A Dao Integration realm expert shouted in the sky. He used his soul power to amplify his voice, ensuring that every person in the city could hear him clearly.

The auction was being held in advance.

This was not only the directive of the Grand Elder of the Dugu family, but also that of the other five major forces. It was better to hold the auction early than to go through another night of chaos!

“Oh, the auction is about to begin!”

“Let’s buy a Divine King-grade Artifact!”

“I heard that the prices of the Divine King-grade artifacts this time are very cheap!”

“The same goes for the Primordial Chaos-grade artifacts. We only need the corresponding materials to exchange for it. Let’s go to the Yellow Stage to participate…”

…

Many cultivators were discussing the auction among themselves.

Ye Chen took a deep breath and stared at the document in his hands. The four auction stages were Heaven, Earth, Black, and Yellow.

The Yellow and Black stages were only auctioning some Primordial Chaos-grade artifacts and about a dozen Dao Integration-grade artifacts. There were plenty of Divine King-grade artifacts though. These two stages were prepared for the lower-level cultivators.

The real auction stages were the Heaven and Earth Stages!

The Earth Platform was where the low-tier sects and the visiting middle-tier forces would participate in, and the treasures on offer were naturally better than the previous two auction stages.

As for the Heaven Stage, it was the most glorious auction stage!

The experts of the six organizing middle-tier factions, as well as representatives of the Holy Dragon and the Divine Dragon families, would participate in this auction, exchanging treasures among themselves.

The participants included the guardians, elders, young masters, as well as the Creation realm grand elders of these factions!

“Waiter, bill!”

Ye Chen left a few supreme-grade immortal stones on the table and walked over to the main street. He exchanged glances with a few people, nodding to them slightly before parting ways in different directions. These people were the Dao Integration realm and Primordial Chaos realm experts that he had purified!

He planned to target both the Heaven and the Earth stages!

As well as the Dugu family’s headquarters!

If he succeeded in doing something this audacious, it would shake the entire Lingwu Continent!

Ye Chen exchanged an immortal artifact for a ticket to enter the Heaven Stage Auction House. When he walked in, he realized that it wasn’t very big, about the size of a football field. Compared to other auction houses, it was much smaller, as the participants here were fewer.

That being said, it was not just the forces of the eight factions that were here. There were some unaffiliated experts, as well as the stronger experts from the other sects and families.

In total, there were nearly ten thousand people here.

Out of this group, only thirty percent were from the major organizing forces. The rest were from regional forces with great financial resources. Of course, there were also lone experts, among which were those like Ye Chen, who were targeting the auction.

Compared to the other three venues, the number of people in the Heaven Stage Auction House was the least.

There were close to 150,000 people in the Earth Stage Auction House, and millions of people on the Black Stage Auction House.

The Yellow Stage Auction House was not closed at all. It was open and almost ten million people had come to participate. Anyone who had the wealth and strength could auction and trade treasures here.

“Everyone!”

“Welcome to the Heaven Stage. This auction is hosted by the guardians of the six major factions, and the two top-tier families have kindly graced the occasion.”

“Without further ado, let’s start the first round of the auction!” The auctioneer was an old man, unlike the other three venues, which were hosted by women.

“The first treasure is a special Dao Integration-grade artifact. It’s a third-grade Dao Integration-grade artifact that contains the lightning element!”

“It’s called the Sky Moon Saber, and was used by Saber Lord Tian Xiyue 4,000 years ago. After he died in the war against the Demon Territory, it was obtained by the Grand Elder of the Fierce Demon Palace. Today, it’s been specially taken out for auction.”

The auctioneer ordered someone to bring up a long saber that was completely white and had arcs of lightning flowing around it. He continued to introduce it. “This saber has the ability to summon lightning. It is also fused with Saber Lord’s Ice and Snow Saber Technique, so it can also summon ice!”

“The starting bid is a hundred ninth-grade Divine King-grade artifacts!”

“Everyone, please take note that each bid will be based on ninth-grade Divine King-grade artifacts or ninth-grade Primordial Chaos-grade artifacts. If you outbid someone, the minimum increase for Divine King-grade artifacts is ten pieces, and the minimum increase for Primordial Chaos-grade artifacts is two pieces.”

The auction in the Heaven Stage Auction House did not use immortal stones, as it was nearly useless to cultivators at their level. The currency was instead ninth-grade Divine King-grade and Primordial Chaos-grade artifacts.

“300 Divine King-grade artifacts!”

“400 Divine King-grade artifacts!”

The Baili family outbid the original bidder.

“500 Divine King-grade artifacts!!”

“Six hundred…”

“Six hundred and seventy…”

“Seven hundred…”

…

” Three Primordial Chaos-grade artifacts!”

“Five…”

“Seven…”

The number was still increasing. A hundred ninth-grade Divine King-grade artifacts were equivalent to a single ninth-grade Primordial Chaos-grade artifact.

The value of a third-grade Dao Integration-grade artifact was about twenty to thirty ninth-grade Primordial Chaos-grade artifacts. However, since it was a special Dao Integration-grade artifact that could not be used to break through, its value was halved to about fifteen ninth-grade Primordial Chaos-grade artifacts.

Ye Chen did not bid. He merely swept his gaze across the crowd indifferently.

Other than the private rooms where the six major forces and two top-tier families, he had also potted Butcher, Old Beggar, and a few others among the people sitting outside.

“Brat!”

“Don’t worry!”

“After they finish bidding and both sides take out their items, we will make our move when they are ready to trade!”

“The good stuff will all come out later.” Butcher sent a voice transmission to Ye Chen. He could not detect Ye Chen’s cultivation level, but he could sense that Ye Chen’s divine soul was somewhat special. That was why he had invited Ye Chen to the group.

“Very well, but don’t bid for what I want!” Ye Chen transmitted his voice to them. Suddenly, he turned to the Dugu family’s headquarters and smiled inwardly. All of the Dao Integration realm experts of the Dugu family had left the headquarters, so there were not many people guarding it at the moment.

“Sixteen Primordial Chaos-grade artifacts going three times!”

“The Sky Moon Saber belongs to Lord Wangyue!”

As soon as the auctioneer finished speaking, the unaffiliated Dao Integration realm expert immediately took out t sixteen ninth-grade Primordial Chaos-grade artifacts from his storage ring and handed them to the auctioneer. However, he would have to wait until the end of the auction to receive the item he had won.
