Extreme Almightiest Young Master-Chapter 2032 - 2014: Super Tycoon?

But even though the people in the VIP rooms didn’t intervene, the people in the hall were already crazy enough. You have to know that these people were mostly from small and medium-sized sects, and there were even some wealthy individuals among them, and even some alliances of forces. Facing this liquefied spiritual essence that could directly enhance cultivation, with effects undoubtedly better than a Heavenly Grade Elixir, they certainly fought fiercely!

So the first Heavenly Origin Treasure Box was finally sold for a price of 4.5 million spirit stones, a price that exceeded anyone’s imagination. If not for the fact that someone ran out of spirit stones at the end, the price could have gone even higher, showing just how attractive this liquefied spiritual essence was.

And after the Heavenly Origin Treasure Box was successfully auctioned off, almost everyone from the VIP rooms came out to investigate the matter of this liquefied spiritual essence, because its appearance was extremely mysterious. It’s something that shouldn’t exist between heaven and earth, yet it appeared at this time. If they didn’t pay attention, that would be truly strange.

But soon everyone returned to their respective VIP rooms, having found out the specific details and confirmed one thing: that the liquefied spiritual essence in the Heavenly Origin Treasure Box was real, and its concentration was unimaginable, just like pure spiritual energy compressed into it; not in the least bit fake!

Faced with such a situation, the people in the VIP rooms were in an uproar, unable to imagine such a thing would appear. But since the information had been confirmed, they all set their eyes on the remaining three sets of Heavenly Origin Treasure Boxes, because they knew what those boxes meant; the value was beyond anyone’s imagination!

The auction continued, and in the blink of an eye throughout the morning, nearly a hundred lots were auctioned off. Apart from the previous Heavenly Grade Elixir Nine Splendors Jade Dew Elixir and the Heavenly Origin Treasure Box, there was nothing too remarkable; most were snapped up by the people below. Everyone knew that the afternoon auction was the main event, where only those with real strength could participate. Medium and small sects could only make a mark in the morning auction.

Throughout the entire morning, Fang Yan and Li Xing just sat there, not bidding on anything because they looked down on those items. The two of them just drank tea in the VIP room, waiting for the items they were interested in to appear.

At the afternoon auction, the first item was once again a Heavenly Grade second-level elixir, undoubtedly consigned for auction by Fang Yan. After an intense bidding war, this Heavenly Grade second-level elixir fetched a high price of 4.5 million. Many sects had already adjusted their strategies; unless they were extremely powerful large sects, no one could be sure they could win the final Heavenly Origin Treasure Box. So, the slightly weaker sects turned their attention to the Heavenly Grade Elixir, causing it to reach such a high price!

This auction price instantly ignited the atmosphere of the afternoon session. Everyone watched as the price of the Heavenly Grade Elixir skyrocketed, feeling their hearts pound. Some couldn’t help but think how great it would be if they were the ones auctioning off this Heavenly Grade Elixir...

While everyone was still caught off guard, Wang Fu began the auction of the second item.

"The previous item made everyone excited, and the item below will equally send everyone into a frenzy. Although no one knows what this thing is called, it is extremely special because it fell from the sky, and it has an indescribable ability. Here is the next item."

When Wang Fu shouted this out, he successfully drew all attention to the auction stage. Two staff members carried a metallic frame, and on top of it was an irregular iron basin. Inside the basin was fiery red molten iron, and floating within it was a sphere emitting an intense heat. 𝙛𝓻𝒆𝓮𝒘𝙚𝙗𝒏𝙤𝙫𝓮𝒍.𝓬𝒐𝙢

This auction item was the only one that couldn’t be concealed. It had surpassed everyone’s expectations, leaving them all dumbfounded. Under normal circumstances, molten iron should be cooled, yet before them, this auction item continuously emanated an intense Fire Element aura. Undoubtedly, this was a rare material with fire attributes, and if refined into a Dharma Treasure, the effect would be unimaginable.

"As everyone can see, this auction item, identified by our auction house, is a particularly special fire attribute material, limited to use in artifact refining. Anyone interested can bid. The starting price is 500,000 spirit stones, with increments of no less than 50,000 spirit stones each."

Wang Fu looked at the crowd and directly announced this price. Although this item was a refining material, the success rate of artifact refining wasn’t very high. Higher-grade refining items have even lower success rates. Although this item is top-grade, they were reluctant to take too big a risk to bid on it. After a slight hesitation, someone finally spoke up.

"500,000 spirit stones," an old man with a red beard in the hall said casually, and the bidding began to climb!

"600,000 spirit stones!"

"650,000 spirit stones!"

"700,000 spirit stones!"

...

The price kept climbing, and in the blink of an eye, it reached a million spirit stones, leaving everyone in the auction stunned. Although everyone knew it was a good item, the issue was that it was merely a material. With a million spirit stones, one could bid for an exquisite Dharma Treasure, yet here, a mere material reached this price; it was utterly incomprehensible!

What they didn’t know was that many large sects had their eyes on the Heart of Blazing Flame. Although it was now just a material, if a good Artifact Refiner could be found, it was highly likely to be refined into a top-tier Dharma Treasure. A top-tier Dharma Treasure is much more powerful than an exquisite Dharma Treasure, especially one suitable for cultivators with fire attributes, offering an overwhelming temptation that no sect could resist.

And the bidding price kept rising, but the speed began to slow down.

When the price reached 1.4 million, Fang Yan glanced at Li Xing and nodded, and Li Xing immediately placed his hand on the stone slab, saying calmly: "1.5 million!"

Instantly, almost all eyes in the auction house turned to Fang Yan’s VIP room number 9, because from the start of the auction until now, this VIP room hadn’t placed a single bid, and now suddenly bidding 1.5 million was bound to catch their attention. They were very curious why the people in VIP room number 9 were interested in this auction item.

"1.5 million spirit stones, VIP room number 9 bids 1.5 million spirit stones. Any higher bids?" Wang Fu also turned his gaze to VIP room number 9. He hadn’t expected them to bid now, and such a high amount, practically sealing the deal. He realized that the sect that bid 1.4 million struggled greatly, hinting at the extraordinary nature of the guests in VIP room number 9.

The elder who bid 1.4 million looked very grim; reaching that bid was already difficult. Considering there were many items yet to be auctioned, including a few Heavenly Grade Elixirs they needed to try competing for, spending too much on this material could ruin their further chances, a significant loss...

After much hesitation, when Wang Fu called out 1.5 million for the third time, the elder finally bid again.

"1.6 million spirit stones!" The elder’s face was extremely dour, gritting out the bid. He was genuinely tempted by this top-grade fire attribute material. Being a cultivator with fire attributes himself, he made the difficult decision to go for it, although it pained him to pay such a price. Nevertheless, to enhance his strength, he decided to win the auction anyway.

But just as the elder announced 1.6 million spirit stones, Li Xing issued another price.

"2 million spirit stones."

The voice was light, seemingly casual, exuding a sense of affluence, adding another 400,000 spirit stones as if it was as simple as breathing. This was the embodiment of wealth!

Everyone was speechless at this point. The price was indeed terrifying for just a material, regardless of its grade; it couldn’t compare to a Heavenly Grade Elixir. The price of 2 million was nearly half that of a Heavenly Grade Elixir. If they had 2 million, they’d have pooled resources to bid for the Heavenly Grade Elixir already. Only a fool would buy this material; after all, a Heavenly Grade Elixir enhances personal strength, while this material only boosts external strength; they are incomparable!

Yet the people in VIP room number 9 casually offered 2 million, seemingly extravagant — a super extravagance. No one understood; even for such a top-grade item, it wasn’t worth 2 million spirit stones!

"2 million spirit stones! VIP room number 9 actually bid 2 million spirit stones; are there any other bids?" Wang Fu was dumbfounded by Li Xing’s bid of 2 million. Generally, material-based treasures, no matter how rare, never reached such a price. He couldn’t comprehend why VIP room number 9 placed such a high bid. Were they just wealthy and willful?

Wang Fu couldn’t have imagined that Fang Yan and Li Xing were indeed being willful. Having already auctioned off two Heavenly Grade Elixirs and a Heavenly Origin Treasure Box’s liquefied spiritual essence, they truly lacked spirit stones. Instead of wasting time, they decided to end it quickly, saving a lot of time.

Indeed, not everyone could afford 2 million spirit stones, and even the elder who previously bid 1.6 million had no choice but to give up reluctantly. It was clear that the person in VIP room number 9 was determined to get the auction item, presenting an image of a super wealthy person; competing with such a person would always place them at a disadvantage.
