Sect: Starting with Comprehending Thunder Skill-Chapter 914 - 431: Reforging the Myriad Poison Banner (2)

If hundreds of thousands of Middle Grade Spirit Stones are spent, and we end up with a Tier One, Two, or Three item, wouldn't that be a waste?

After hearing Li Yunjing's concerns, Zhao Qi nodded, her gaze now carrying a hint of gravity: "We need to set a bottom line, and if reached, we must give up!"

"Yes! I want to see others' reactions!"

Li Yunjing nodded slightly, agreeing with the idea of setting a bottom line.

At that moment, after a long silence, the bidding in the venue had begun.

Despite the high starting price and unknown usage and grade, various disadvantages, in the face of the allure of an Ancient Secret Treasure, there were still people willing to bid.

"One hundred and ten thousand Middle Grade Spirit Stones!"

In Private Box 33, a Golden Core Realm Cultivator was the first to bid.

"One hundred and twenty thousand!"

Once someone began, another cultivator quickly followed.

"One hundred and fifty thousand!"

Suddenly, a Nascent Soul Realm Cultivator from upstairs directly increased the bid by thirty thousand, clearly determined to obtain it.

The participation of a Nascent Soul Realm Cultivator immediately caused a stir, as this was the third time in four days that a big figure of this caliber had participated in the auction!

"Two hundred thousand!"

Before everyone could be shocked, in the luxurious private box on the sixth floor, a cultivator in a black robe coldly opened his mouth, his voice carrying an undeniable majesty.

The entire auction house fell silent.

Two hundred thousand Middle Grade Spirit Stones had already exceeded the limit of many top Golden Core Realm Cultivators!

It could be said that few in the private boxes on the fifth floor had the financial ability to compete with the big figures above.

However, the bidding did not stop!

There were still major figures placing bids, "Two hundred and ten thousand!"

"Two hundred and fifty thousand!"

Suddenly, a voice came from Box No. 1 on the fifth floor, and surprisingly, a Golden Core Realm member was participating in the competition.

"Three hundred thousand!" 𝐟𝐫𝕖𝗲𝘄𝚎𝗯𝕟𝐨𝕧𝐞𝚕.𝕔𝕠𝐦

The black-robed Nascent Soul Realm Cultivator on the sixth floor unhesitatingly uttered another astronomical figure.

A gleam flashed in Li Yunjing's eyes, and he whispered to Zhao Qi: "It's about time for me to make a move."

"So many major figures are bidding, and you want to compete? Isn't that troublesome?"

Zhao Qi nodded, a hint of worry flashing in her eyes.

"It doesn't matter! First, secure it and speak later! I plan to take this item and leave immediately! For the next half month, let them continue the auction!"

Li Yunjing had already made up his mind.

Hearing this, Zhao Qi's expression softened a bit.

"Five hundred thousand!"

Seeing that Zhao Qi had no objections, Li Yunjing spoke. His voice was calm yet carried an invisible pressure.

"Wow..."

"Who is this?"

"My God! Even if it's a Golden Core Clan, gathering all their resources, it would still be difficult to gather so many Spirit Stones!"

"Who is this person?"

"Could it be the rumored top Second Generation Cultivator? Is his father a Nascent Soul Realm Cultivator?"

"Unbelievable! Does someone have that much money?"

...

The auction house was in an uproar, with everyone looking toward the private box where Li Yunjing was.

Box No. 99 was under the scrutiny of all eyes!

Five hundred thousand Middle Grade Spirit Stones, this was already an astronomical figure!

Even Nascent Soul Realm Cultivators had to seriously consider it.

Of course, the wealth of Nascent Soul Realm Cultivators is deep and unfathomable; they regularly cultivate with High Grade Spirit Stones. However, there was an uncertain factor involved.

That was whether the "Dragon and Phoenix Yin Yang Celestial Secret Pendant" was worth this value!

If it wasn't worth it, spending such a huge price would eventually become a laughingstock!

This factor had to be considered by the major figures in the Nascent Soul Realm!

As for Spirit Stones?

That was not a big deal.

The face of the black-robed Nascent Soul Realm Cultivator on the sixth floor slightly changed, and he looked gloomily toward Box No. 99 downstairs, coldly stating another astronomical price: "Six hundred thousand!"

"Seven hundred thousand."

Without hesitation, Li Yunjing calmly spoke, as if seven hundred thousand Middle Grade Spirit Stones were trivial to him.

"Good lad!"

The face of the black-robed Nascent Soul Realm Cultivator became extremely ugly, evidently showing that this price was already at the limit in his mind.

Even the wealth of major figures isn't acquired for nothing!

Seven hundred thousand Middle Grade Spirit Stones are equivalent to over six thousand High Grade Spirit Stones!

Over six thousand High Grade Spirit Stones would be enough to purchase a Tier Four Magical Treasure.

When this major figure no longer placed a bid, this treasure, without surprise, fell into Li Yunjing's hands.

"Seven hundred thousand! Third time!"

The auctioneer excitedly hammered down: "Seven hundred thousand Middle Grade Spirit Stones! Sold! The 'Dragon and Phoenix Yin Yang Celestial Secret Pendant' goes to the fellow cultivator in Box No. 99!"

"Finally got it!"

Li Yunjing smiled slightly, a hint of satisfaction flashing in his eyes.

As for whether this blind box was profitable or a loss, it would depend on Li Yunjing's luck.

After paying this sum of Spirit Stones, Li Yunjing and Zhao Qi quietly left the auction house and headed towards the dock.

Li Yunjing chartered a ship at the dock and set out to sea, heading west.

The ship wasn't large, only eighteen zhang long, and was a Tier Two Low Grade Spiritual Artifact, enough to suffice for an ocean journey.

With Spirit Stones, things proceed smoothly!

The ship's captain naturally didn't refuse this business.

In a room inside the ship's cabin, Li Yunjing took out the "Dragon and Phoenix Yin Yang Celestial Secret Pendant" and examined it closely.

The dragon and phoenix patterns on the Jade Pendant were vivid, as if they might fly out from the pendant at any time. It seemed to have a sealing implication, or perhaps some kind of imprint—in any case, it didn't seem carved.

"This Jade Pendant... I can't see anything different!"

Zhao Qi said in a low voice, a hint of curiosity flashing in her eyes.

"Indeed, nothing noticeable!"

Li Yunjing nodded and said seriously: "It is rumored that the secret treasures of the 'Celestial Secret Sect' contain the power of Celestial Secret Calculation. Perhaps this Jade Pendant can assist me in cultivating the 'Celestial Secret Technique'! I'll have someone take a look at it once I return to the Sect!"
