Fifth-Tier Barrier-Breaking Pill
"The second Force Comprehension Pill, starting bid remains ten Low-Grade Origin Crystal, bidding begins!"
Although this Force Comprehension Pill is rare, it is only effective for Hua Jin. Therefore, all the bidders were Hua Jin cultivators from the first floor.
Before long, all eight Force Comprehension Pill were sold.
The lowest one has twenty-four coins; the highest one has twenty-six coins.
It seems that although these Hua Jin masters were making a lot of noise, they all had their own principles and none of them wanted to waste a single penny.
"Next up, the second item is a Grandmaster arts technique: the Star-Shattering Palm!"
"When this palm technique is mastered to perfection, the True Essence is compressed to its extreme in the palm, exploding with a deafening roar the moment it hits the target. No visible wounds are left on the outside, but the internal meridians and internal organs are already reduced to a pile of minced meat!"
Starting bid: 500 Low-Grade Origin Crystal! Each bid must be at least 10 crystals higher. Let's begin!
As soon as the words were spoken, only a handful of people responded in the lobby, with just a few leisurely raising the price.
Five hundred and ten!
Five hundred and twenty!
Although few people are calling for it, the price is climbing quite quickly.
Before long, the number of coins exceeded one thousand, and the sounds of bidding could be heard from several private rooms on the second floor.
A little while later, the price climbed to two thousand, and three parties were still vying for it.
Inside room number twelve, Lu Feng looked down and said softly:
"Grandmaster's martial arts technique, so expensive?"
"That's natural," Lu Shuang said calmly.
"This is just a palm technique. If it were a major cultivation technique, it would be common for it to fetch tens of thousands of Low-Grade Origin Crystal. Otherwise, how would the major sects attract talent?"
Upon hearing this, Lu Feng nodded thoughtfully.
In the end, "Star-Shattering Palm" was auctioned off to a distinguished guest on the second floor for 3,200 Low-Grade Origin Crystal.
"The third item in the auction—a fifth-grade superior Mortal Artifact, the Goose Feather Saber!"
"This knife is forged from Goose Feather Stone, so light it's practically weightless, weighing only thirty pounds. Its blade is so sharp it can cut a hair in two. When used in conjunction with movement techniques, it has even more remarkable effects."
Starting bid: 10,000 Low-Grade Origin Crystal! Each bid must be at least 1,000 crystals higher – bidding begins!
After he finished speaking, the lobby on the first floor fell silent.
The bidding from the second floor was in full swing.
"Ten thousand!"
"Eleven thousand!"
"Twelve thousand!"
In the end, this Goose Feather Saber was sold for 23,000 Low-Grade Origin Crystal.
Inside room number twelve, Lu Feng finally understood everything.
The auction was arranged in a very well-organized manner.
Start by bidding on items needed by martial artists with Nei Jin and Hua Jin, then move on to Grandmaster- level techniques and weapons, followed by those used by Great Grandmaster, and finally, the ultimate treasures that will surely tempt even powerful beings at the Celestial Person Realm.
Moreover, the product categories are different in each round.
"Excellent tactic," Lu Feng thought to himself.
In this way, guests at all levels will not have to wait too long, will not dare to leave halfway through the meal, and will be reluctant to arrive halfway through.
Just then, the fourth item was carried onto the auction stage by a maid.
"The fourth item up for auction: Fifth-Tier Barrier-Breaking Pill!"
"As for its effects, I'm sure you all know them: when Great Grandmaster is breaking through a bottleneck, taking it can increase the chances of a breakthrough by 30%!"
Starting bid: 20,000 Low-Grade Origin Crystal! Each bid must be at least 1,000 crystals higher. Bidding begins!
As soon as the words were spoken, bidding erupted almost simultaneously from the private rooms on the second and third floors!
"Twenty thousand!"
"Twenty-one thousand!"
"Twenty-two thousand!"
The price climbed steadily, and in the blink of an eye, it had already exceeded 50,000.
"I didn't expect that these Fifth-Tier Barrier-Breaking Pill would be so sought after." Lu Feng remarked casually in room number twelve of the Earth-class building.
"Of course they're in high demand!"
Lu Shuang stared intently at the pill on the stage.
"A 30% chance of breaking through... and this is only Fifth-Tier Barrier-Breaking Pill. If there were Fourth-Tier Barrier-Breaking Pill, I would get it today no matter what!"
"Is this elixir really that miraculous?"
Lu Feng currently has a whole bottle of Fifth-Tier Barrier-Breaking Pill in his storage bag, a total of ten pills.
These were spoils of war that I picked up while I was destroying the Vajra Temple and killing Huixing.
"Did you recognize who bid 50,000 just now?" Lu Shuang suddenly turned her head.
"Who?"
"The current Crown Prince, Lu Xinghan."
Upon hearing this, a hint of surprise flashed in Lu Feng's eyes.
Although he hadn't gone out much these past few days, he still knew the name Lu Xinghan.
Empress Liu Yue is trying every possible way to marry Lu Shuang off to her.
"You wanted it? You should have said so earlier." Lu Feng raised an eyebrow, his tone teasing.
Sixty thousand!
He turned his head and casually gave the maid a number.
"No, Lu Feng!" Lu Shuang quickly whispered, trying to stop him.
"I'm here for the Sword Intent Pill; there's no need to waste my Origin Crystal on anything else!"
"Don't worry, I have money. This little bit of Origin Crystal is nothing," Lu Feng said nonchalantly.
Lu Shuang was slightly taken aback, then realized that he had just consigned a string of Low-Grade Spirit Artifact for auction, earning nearly two million.
These tens of thousands of Origin Crystal were indeed just a drop in the ocean for him.
So she stopped trying to stop her.
Meanwhile, on the third floor, in the No. 1 private room of the "Heaven" category.
Lu Xinghan had two voluptuous young women on his left and right, looking quite content.
Behind him, four Great Grandmaster guards stood at attention with their hands at their sides.
"Fifth-Tier Barrier-Breaking Pill, not bad! Fifty thousand."
Lu Xinghan spoke lazily, his tone confident, as if the pill was already his for the taking.
Just as he expected.
Once this price was announced, no one in the room dared to bid against it.
After all, no one would risk offending the Crown Prince for a mere pill.
But just then!
A sound came from the second floor:
Sixty thousand!
"Oh? Someone actually dares to try and steal from me, the Crown Prince? Interesting." Lu Xinghan raised an eyebrow, intrigued.
"Seventy thousand!"
"Your Highness, should I go and investigate who is on the second floor?" a guard beside him asked in a low voice.
"No need! It makes it sound like I, the Crown Prince, am abusing my power and bullying others." Lu Xinghan waved his hand and said arrogantly.
"I, the Crown Prince, would like to see how long he can keep up this way!"
Before the words were even finished!
"Eighty thousand!" The voice from the second floor rang out again.
The two then began to bid.
"Ninety thousand!"
"One hundred thousand!"
The price skyrocketed, and in the blink of an eye, it has broken through the 200,000 mark!
Lu Xinghan's face darkened inch by inch.
He instinctively tightened his grip on the beauty's arms!
The two girls trembled in pain, biting their lips tightly, not daring to make a sound.
Three hundred thousand!
On the auction stage, Feng Sanniang's eyes shone with excitement.
A Barrier-Breaking Pill, which had a market value of no more than 50,000, was forcibly raised to 300,000, a six-fold increase!
She had no idea who was sitting in room number 12 on the second floor, someone who dared to challenge the Crown Prince to his face.
But she knew very well that for every 100,000 increase in the price of the pills, her commission would increase by 10,000!
"Three hundred thousand Low-Grade Origin Crystal! Anything higher?!" she drawled, her smile radiant.
There was much discussion among the audience, but no one made another bid.
Feng Sanniang glanced towards room number twelve on the second floor, and seeing no movement there, she stopped waiting and raised the small hammer in her hand:
"Three hundred thousand Low-Grade Origin Crystal for the first time!"
"The second time!"
"The third time!"
"Sold! Congratulations to the distinguished guest in the No. 1 VIP room on the third floor, who has won a Fifth-Tier Barrier-Breaking Pill!"
In a private room on the third floor, Lu Xinghan finally got what he wanted, and his expression softened slightly.
The two girls on his left and right were now deathly pale, with a fine layer of cold sweat on their foreheads.
Meanwhile, on the second floor, in room number twelve (地字十二).
