Huh!?

"What did you say just now?"

The words that Zheng-Fu had just said caught the young man's ears, and he turned to look at Zheng-Fu's face, which right now looked very lewd.

"You filthy! What does that kind of expression mean?!" The young woman throttled her voice. Although she did not know what Zheng-Fu was thinking, when she saw his face, she couldn't help but get goosebumps and blush. It reminded her of the previous incident that Zheng-Fu had done to her.

"Did I do something wrong? I'm just happy to practice advanced Deity Soul stage skills. Was it wrong for me to show a happy expression?!" Zheng-Fu realized he had made a mistake and hurriedly defended himself.

"But your face doesn't say you meant that, Brother! Even I think like Elder Sister. Aren't you dreaming of Elder Sister's figure..."

Pow!!!

Ouch!!!

"Shut your mouth, you crazy brother!" Before Ye-Liu could even finish his sentence, his head was knocked by Qing-Qi's white hand, along with a psychic killing curse.

"I was wrong! I'm sorry."

Back in the arena again...

When the third item was auctioned, the fourth item was immediately brought up. This one was only an intermediate Immortal stage weapon, but its price was not low; by the end of the auction, it had skyrocketed to twenty million crystals. After that, the fifth and sixth items were brought into the auction arena respectively.

An hour passed...

"All right, everyone, the next item we'll auction is something we discovered and studied how to use for a long time. But it remains a mystery. We only know that this item is over a hundred thousand years old and that it has a mysterious and strong aura. Although it cannot yet be used for its actual purpose, it can increase the energy of a cultivator during cultivation. Therefore, I'll set its price at 50,000,000 Purple Heaven Crystals!"

50,000,000 Purple Heaven Crystals!?

"Why is it such a high price? The price is higher than the previous item!"

"An over-a-hundred-thousand-year-old antique but its method of use remains unknown!? And why would anyone bring it?"

"Even though it can increase the energy level, would it be worth fifty million crystals?"

Many auction participants immediately became suspicious and hesitant, as everyone wanted to know whether it would be worth the money they spent. If they bought this strange object and couldn't make use of it, wouldn't it mean wasting their crystals for nothing?

"Brother Zheng-Fu, do you know what this item is? Why is its price so high?" Ye-Liu turned to ask Zheng-Fu, not even considering that Zheng-Fu might not know.

"I must apologize to you, Brother Ye-Liu. I don't know what it is either. But if the auction group dares to set the price this high, this item is definitely good," Zheng-Fu immediately replied to the young man that he also didn't know what it was. What he could say was that it must be something valuable; otherwise, the auction group wouldn't have set the price as high as fifty million low-level Purple Heaven Crystals.

"Ah! But it seems that everyone is still hesitating about whether to offer a price. What about you? Aren't you interested in it?" the young man asked again.

"I'm interested. But let me look at the situation first!" Zheng-Fu actually wanted it because he felt a deep connection to this item.

50,500,000 Purple Heaven Crystals!

Finally, someone raised their hand to bid. It was a middle-aged man wearing a straw hat, holding a gourd of liquor, and looking like a drunkard.

"50,500,000 Purple Heaven Crystals by Master Pao-Da of Sacred Divine Thunder Fortress Clan!"

"Master Pao-Da!?"

"That's Master Pao-Da, who was titled 'The Strongest Fortress' of the Sacred Divine Thunder Fortress Clan! And also, the one with the highest defensive skill within his clan!"

"Since when did he come? Why didn't I notice him?"

When the name of this drunken middle-aged man was announced, many people were stunned, as they had all heard of his fame.

"Oh! I never thought that Master Pao-Da would join the auction. Until now, we've gone through many items; why did you just come? Or did you come just for this item?" Chou-Bing greeted Pao-Da in a friendly manner.

"No, I didn't come because of this item. I bid on this item because I thought there should be someone offering a higher price. I just want to have fun... Burp! That's it! What I really need is the last item everyone here has been waiting for!" Master Pao-Da replied, turning to look at Zheng-Fu, who was sitting not too far from him, before lifting the gourd of liquor to drink.

Huh?

"Ah! I think so too," even without explicitly saying it, Chou-Bing knew whom Pao-Da was talking about. He also thought that Zheng-Fu had to bid for this item.

Huh!

"Whoever would like to bid, do as you please. It's just an old item with unknown abilities except for increasing energy levels. It'd be suitable for a kid who's just learning to walk!" At the same moment, Lei-Shu let out a slight taunt, dissatisfied.

"50,500,000 low-level Purple Heaven Crystals! Will anyone offer more?" the middle-aged man in the arena asked again after seeing that no one had offered more.

51,000,000 Purple Heaven Crystals!

Finally, Zheng-Fu raised his hand to bid, as expected by the middle-aged men, Pao-Da and Chou-Bing.

"51,000,000 Purple Heaven Crystals by that Young Master. Is anyone going to bid more than this?"

"I withdraw! I don't want to bid further!" Pao-Da, who was the first bidder, raised his hand and asked to withdraw. The others continued to sit still.

"If there is no one bidding more, I'm closing this auction with 51,000,000 Purple Heaven Crystals! Young Master, you win! But... since this item is very large, we'll also provide a storage dimensional ring, including all the information that we've studied on it," the middle-aged man immediately closed the auction and informed the participants about the delivery of the item, which was more special than the previous ones.

Huh!?

"You also get all the information!? That's so good, Brother! You don't have to waste your time studying it from scratch!" Ye-Liu was delighted that Zheng-Fu won the auction this round, plus he also got educational information and research.

"Hmm! I got information from the study, but they said they still don't know how to use it. So, I'll still have to learn how to use it myself anyway!" Zheng-Fu smiled at Ye-Liu. However, he was glad to have that data too.

Ahem!

"Well! Finally, the moment you've all been waiting for has arrived. The following item, you may already know what it is. But even so, I still have to announce to everyone that the next auction item is a Heavenly Level weapon, the 'Sacred World-Splitting Sword,' of which only a few exist in the Heavenly Command Sect. Of course, its opening price is naturally high. It'll start at 1,000 high-level Purple Heaven Crystals. Only high-level Purple Heaven Crystals!"

The price set this time could no longer be auctioned with lower levels of Purple Heaven Crystals. Anyone who wanted it would have to bid exclusively with high-level Purple Heaven Crystals.

1,100 high-level Purple Heaven Crystals!

1,200 high-level Purple Heaven Crystals!

1,500 high-level Purple Heaven Crystals!

2,000 high-level Purple Heaven Crystals!

In the blink of an eye, the price increased from one thousand to two thousand high-level Purple Heaven Crystals, already the highest price ever. This was because the Heavenly Level Weapon was an extremely valuable treasure that could empower the clan or force that possessed it. Moreover, there were fewer than fifteen Heavenly Weapons in the Heavenly Command Sect. Therefore, no matter the cost, they were willing to pay.

At the seats of Zheng-Fu, Ye-Liu, and Qing-Qi...

"Two hundred million Purple Heaven Crystals! Why is the price so high? Shouldn't it be just about fifty million Purple Heaven Crystals?" Ye-Liu couldn't help but mutter when he heard the opening price of the Sacred World-Splitting Sword, which was shockingly high. He thought the price wouldn't exceed a hundred million Purple Heaven Crystals.

"I told you, didn't I, silly brother! There are no Heavenly-Level Weapons at such a low price! Let alone two thousand high-level Purple Heaven Crystals—even if it's five thousand or ten thousand, they'll be willing to pay for it. Well, let me join the auction first to wait for Third Uncle to arrive," Qing-Qi spoke up to extinguish Ye-Liu's dreams, explaining the harsh reality of the Heavenly-Level Weapon's price. She also prepared to perform her assigned duty of joining and bidding with others.

"Then, Third Uncle is coming here?" the young man nodded in understanding.

"Certainly! Our Third Uncle wasn't here earlier because he was collecting money. If our clan wants this weapon, we'll have to pay as much as we can!" the young woman replied earnestly before raising her hand to bid.

2,500 high-level Purple Heaven Crystals!

"2,500 high-level Purple Heaven Crystals, proposed by Miss Lan-Qing-Qi from Sky Thunder-Heavenly Star Clan!"

"Sky Thunder-Heavenly Star Clan has started to move?"

"Looks like we should move a little too!"

"2,700 high-level Purple Heaven Crystals from Heavenly Storm Wolf Force!"

"2,800 high-level Purple Heaven Crystals from Heavenly Forest Force!"

"2,900 high-level Purple Heaven Crystals from Ravaged Blaze Lion Force!"

"3,000 high-level Purple Heaven Crystals from Heaven Commanded Beneath the Sky Force!"

"3,100 high-level Purple Heaven Crystals from Cloud Ocean Dragon Force!"

After Qing-Qi's bid, representatives of the five big forces followed with their own bids, their voices ringing out from the renowned figures of their clans.

"3,200 high-level Purple Heaven Crystals from Heavenly Command Saber Clan!"

"3,400 high-level Purple Heaven Crystals from Heaven's Eyes Sky Opening Clan!"

"3,500 high-level Purple Heaven Crystals from Heavenly Divine Memoir Clan!"

"3,600 high-level Purple Heaven Crystals from Celestial Star Clan!"

"3,700 high-level Purple Heaven Crystals from Heavenly Floating Cloud Tiger Clan!"

"3,800 high-level Purple Heaven Crystals from..."

"6,000 high-level Purple Heaven Crystals!"

Huh!?

As the big clans and forces continued bidding, a sudden shout raised the price dramatically. This time, the bidder was not Zheng-Fu, but a mysterious black-cloaked figure sitting not far from Zheng-Fu and his group.

"Who's that?"
