Chapter 654: Auction

Chapter 653 - Auction

The auction house was filled with people, but it wasn’t the slightest bit crowded. The planning was clearly well-planned. Mu Chen and Nine Nether sat at a location close to the front.

The seat was forged from jade stones, and the surface was covered in soft fur. When sitting on it, one could vaguely sense faint Spiritual Aura pouring into his body. Clearly, the jade stone and soft fur weren’t ordinary.

This auction house could not be compared those that Mu Chen had seen before.

After Mu Chen and Nine Nether sat down, the girl named Lin Jing also sat beside them. The appearance of that girl was extremely beautiful, her skin was as fair as jade and was as exquisite as porcelain. Even when she had disguised herself as a man, there was a strange beauty on her that made her look rather lovely to others. However, Mu Chen gave her a stare when he saw her following them.

“Don’t chase me away, I’m just here to take a look.” Seeing Mu Chen’s stare, Lin Jing quickly crossed her fingers as she spoke pitifully. Except that her eyes were filled with slyness and spirituality, like a little fox.

However, Mu Chen did no eat and said in an unpleasant tone, “Stop acting.”

“It’s fate that we met, you're too heartless.” Lin Jing spoke in a huff.

“Since you’ve come, then sit together with us. But you can’t cause any troubles.” Nine Nether, who sat next to them, gave the girl a glance as she smiled.

“This big sister is better.” Lin Jing sweetly praised Nine Nether as she continued, “Rest assured, as long as others don’t provoke me, I won’t cause any trouble.”

Mu Chen flung his lips as his eyes became filled with a little smiling intent. As for this lady that he had just met, he had a slightly good feeling about her. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have helped her twice.

But he had to say, beautiful girls did have some advantages, although he didn’t have any other thoughts about her.

Once the three of them sat down, Lin Jing couldn’t endure from being bored as she regularly chatted with Mu Chen. However, her voice was clear and crisp, similar to jade pearls falling onto the silver plate. Her voice was very pleasant to the ears and hearing it was a form of enjoyment.

The personality displayed by this girl wasn’t as serene as her name; instead, she was spiritual and straightforward.

As they conversed, Mu Chen saw waves of those originating from unordinary forces arriving. The status of those people was rather high, since they had directly entered those small pavilions in the auction house.

Clearly, this current auction had attracted many of the heavyweights over.

“There are at least five rather well-known forces coming to this auction house. But the ones that I feel threatening are only those fellows from the Sky Profound Palace.”

Nine Nether softly said, “The status of those fellows from the Sky Profound Palace is quite high. The strength of that black-clothed elder is powerful. I’m afraid that he might have even reached Fifth Grade Sovereign Realm. With that strength, they are basically Elders in the Sky Profound Palace.”

“Fifth Grade Sovereign Realm?” Mu Chen blinked his eyes as his expression became a little grave. To be able to have an escort of an expert of that level, looks like that feminine youth was quite important in the Sky Profound Palace.

If those fellows were also here for the Void Great Solar Fruit and the Undying Divine Leaf, the situation today wouldn’t be so fun. Although Mu Chen had a sum of Sovereign Spiritual Liquids on hand due to the Spiritual Condensing Bowl, with the Sky Profound Palace behind that fellow, he’s probably not easy to deal with either.

“That bastard is from the Sky Profound Palace?” Hearing their discussion, Lin Jing softly snorted as she continued, “What’s so great about them? Don’t worry, if he dares to cause any trouble to you, I’ll teach him a lesson!”

Looks like she was angered by the fellow that dared to take advantage of her.

“Thanks, then.” Mu Chen rolled his eyes impolitely at her words. Clearly, he only treated her words as ramblings. After all, the Sky Profound Palace was a peak force in the Skylaw Continent, with overpowering strength.

Mu Chen’s attitude angered the girl to the point that she frowned her brows. However, after recalling that she had snuck out of her house without anyone by her side, she snorted with her teeth clenched together, “Short-sighted!”

As time passed, the atmosphere in the auction had gradually reached the peak. A pillar of light shot up from the centre of the auction house, and, vaguely, there was the ringing of bells that resounded.

Countless gazes were directed over.

In the pillar of light, a white-robed elder appeared. The elder had white hair and beard with a solemn expression. There wasn’t any smile on his face, giving others a stern feeling. Generally speaking, those with such attitudes were unsuitable to host the auction house. But when he appeared, the voices in the auction house became a lot more silent, and followed by sighs.

“This auction is actually hosted by Master Mo Qing. Looks like the standard isn’t low.”

“Yeah, Master Mo Qing is the Lead Auctioneer Master in Merchant City. He can tell real treasures from fake ones with a glance. He wouldn’t just come out for regular auctions.”

“Looks like it was a correct decision to come this time.”

“…”

Hearing the surrounding whispers, shock was revealed from Mu Chen’s eyes as he cast a glance at the white-robed elder. He never imagined the latter to have such great fame.

“The strength or that elderly man is probably somewhere around Third Grade Sovereign Realm.” Nine Nether spoke as she looked at the white-robed elderly man.

Mu Chen was dumbstruck. This truly was the Great Thousand World. Just the Lead Auctioneer had the cultivation of Third Grade Sovereign Realm. If he was in the Northern Heavens Spiritual Academy, he could become the highest leveled Elder.

But, clearly, even in this place, this Master Mo Qing had an extraordinary position as well.

Within the whispers that filled the entire field, Master Mo Qing swept his gaze around and stopped on some pavilions. He then cupped his fists. “I bid my greetings, let us begin today’s auction.”

“Perhaps everyone knows my rules. The auction hosted by me will only have ten items to auction. But I believe that everyone will be satisfied with the quality.”

The white-robed elderly man’s tone was a little arrogant, but no one dared to refute his words. They were probably aware of this master’s rules.

“Interesting.”

Mu Chen smiled. This was still the first time he had encountered such an auctioneer of this personality. Only auctioning ten items? Seems like those items should have already gone through a thorough selection process that aroused the curiosity in his heart.

He wanted to see how rare the ten items chosen by this master would be.

Under the countless gazes held with expectations, the white-robed elderly man waved his hand, and a lumpy light ball appeared. Within the light ball, there was a small boat. The small ship was radiating with endless light, and vaguely, there were spatial ripples emitted from it.

“This is a Spatial Ship, a Low Rank Divine Artifact without any offensive capabilities. Under the maximum speed, it is hard for even a Sixth Grade Sovereign to chase after it.” Master Mo Qingfaintly said with a smile.

“The starting bid is 2000 Sovereign Spiritual Liquids.”

A commotion broke out in the entire field.

It was actually an agility-based Divine Artifact. Although it was only Low Rank, and without any offensive capabilities, the speed was something that not even a Sixth Grade Sovereign Realm could be compared to, making everyone a little shocked.

As long as one possessed this Divine Artifact, escaping was an easy feat, if one encountered a hunt.

Although this Divine Artifact didn’t have any offensive capabilities, the speed was enough to make up for it.

Mu Chen’s eyes were also heated when he looked at it. But the price of 2000 Sovereign Spiritual Liquids could only make him think about it. After all, the amount of Sovereign Spiritual Liquids he had on hand wasn’t enough for him to throw them out as he wished. He had to wait for the two treasures that he required to appear.

“2100!”

Many experts had an idea about the Spatial Ship. After all, life was the most essential factor in this world. As long as they had a treasure that could aid them in escaping, their safety would be more secured.

“2300!”

“2500!”

“...”

In just a minute, the price of this Spatial Ship had risen from 2000 Sovereign Spiritual Liquids to 3000 before the bidding gradually slowed down. After all, 3000 Sovereign Spiritual Liquids wasn’t a small sum. Even if it was a Fifth Grade Sovereign expert, it would require nearly half a year of refining before they could accumulate that sum.

In the end, the Spatial Ship was sold for a price of 3100 Sovereign Spiritual Liquids to a skinny middle-aged man.

Mu Chen also inwardly sighed as he watched. Looks like coming to this auction house wasn’t for nothing, just this treasure alone was sufficient to widen his eyes.

“Second auctioning item…”

After that bidding ended, another ball of light rose from the white-robed elder with a grasp of his hand. In the ball of light, it was a red fiery liquid that looked like magma. As it flowed, flames were wriggling and was emitting a particularly high temperature that instantly raised the temperature in this auction house.

“This is a Heavenly Flame Chalcedony, a fire jade refined from the deepest part of the magma ocean. It was refined for ten thousand years by fire jade before forming into chalcedony. It is a requirement for those powerful Celestial Bodies amongst the 99 Rankings of Sovereign Celestial Body.”

“Starting bid, 1000 Sovereign Spiritual Liquids.”

Countless gazes were directed over. This Heavenly Flame Chalcedony was an extraordinary object. However, due to the limitation of its usage, only those cultivating Sovereign Celestial Bodies required it.

Mu Chen cast a glance before retracting it. Clearly, he wasn’t too interested in it, and shortly after, he turned his head and was stunned. He saw Lin Jing staring at the Heavenly Flame Jade Chalcedony as she bit on her lips. She actually had her eyes on this item.

However, Lin Jing, who was staring at it, quickly lowered her head, since she didn’t have that much Sovereign Spiritual Liquid to bid for it. Although she needed that item, she did not recklessly ask Mu Chen for help. After all, she was well-aware that 1000 Sovereign Spiritual Liquids wasn’t a small amount to anyone.

She bit her lips as she turned her head away. She could only calm her heart by not looking at it.

Mu Chen caught her actions from the corner of his eyes and couldn’t help smiling. However, he still remained seated as he rubbed on the armrest of the chair, not having any intentions to help.
