Chapter 3544

Curtain Drop

"25 million!"

All of a sudden, a clear voice sounded out. The originally noisy bidding suddenly became dead silent. One gaze after another landed on the source of this voice.

This person was seriously too bold, to actually raise the price by 75 million in an instant.

Zhuowen looked at the VIP seats at the source of that voice, his eyes narrowing slightly. This VIP seat was precisely the VIP seat where Chief Protector was seated.

And this voice clearly belonged to that young man sitting in the main seat of the VIP seats.

"Looks like this person's objective is this Profound Sky Sea Calming Vine!"

Zhuo Wen muttered to himself. Since the beginning of the auction until now, this young man hadn't bid a single time. But now, he'd bid such a high price in one go. Obviously, the objective of this trip was the Darksky Ocean Settling Vine.

The silence of the auction venue did not last for long. Bids sounded out once more. It was just that this time, the bidding voices were clearly much fewer.

The price also rose very slowly. When the price rose to 20 million, that Xu Yuan's voice sounded out once more.

"655 million Heavenly Dao Origin Crystals!"

The moment these words came out, everyone in the entire auction house sucked in a cold breath.

655 million high-grade Heavenly Dao Origin Crystals, this amount was seriously too enormous. Even some major factions probably also found it hard to take out so many Heavenly Dao Origin Crystals all at once.

Who in the world was this person, to actually call out such a crazy bid?

Baili Qiuling was shocked too. She originally thought that this Profound Sky Sea Calming Vine's price being able to reach 35 million plus was already very heaven-defying. But she did not expect that the price directly soared to 655 million now, exceeding her expectations.

Xu Yuan stood in the VIP seats. When he saw that the surrounding people no longer had anyone bidding, the corners of his mouth revealed a hint of a smug smile.

He knew that this Profound Sky Sea Calming Vine would be his soon.

"Are there any higher bids? If there aren't, this Profound Sky Sea Calming Vine will be this honored guest in VIP seat No. 6 right away!" Baili Qiuling was excited until her pretty face flushed red.

"Huhu, you can knock the hammer now!

There shouldn't be anyone who will call out a higher price! "

Xu Yuan was in a very good mood, opening his mouth to urge Baili Qiuling to knock the hammer.

"655 million!

This Profound Sky Sea Calming Vine, I'm taking it for sure! "Zhuowen said coolly.

This sudden bid immediately caused the entire auction house to fall silent.

Numerous gazes fell on Zhuo Wen once again. Everyone revealed looks of disbelief.

Because the person bidding was actually the yellow-faced middle-aged man in the lobby.

Everyone revealed surprised and bewildered expressions, suspecting that the yellow-faced middle-aged man's identity was not ordinary.

After all, this guy had just spent over thirty million Heavenly Dao Origin Crystals to buy the Soul Nurturing Pot, and now he wanted to spend over a hundred million to buy the Profound Sky Sea Settling Vine. This wasn't just being rich and overbearing, it was practically being a spendthrift.

Xu Yuan's face stiffened, and the corners of his mouth twitched. He looked at Zhuowen with an unfriendly gaze, but didn't say anything. Instead, he raised the price to one hundred and ten million.

The corners of Zhuowen's mouth curled up. He knew that Xu Garden's financial resources were limited. Otherwise, it wouldn't have increased by so little.

"One hundred eleven million!" Zhuo Wen said indifferently.

"You have guts. You actually dare to bid against me?"

Xu Yuan's eyes were cold as he stared at Zhuowen. He couldn't help but speak.

He had only brought one hundred and ten million with him this time. This was already his limit.

Moreover, Xu Yuan couldn't figure out how the yellow-faced middle-aged man in the lobby was a wandering cultivator with mediocre cultivation.

Where did this person get so many Heavenly Dao Origin Crystals? One had to know that even some powerful factions wouldn't be able to obtain over a hundred million high-grade Heavenly Dao Origin Crystals even if they sold their entire fortune.

However, this guy who looked like a wandering cultivator actually casually called out such a price. It was truly inconceivable.

Xu Yuan returned to his seat, took a deep breath, and said coldly, "Chief Protector, investigate this person's origins for me!"

"Young master Xu Yuan, you don't plan on bidding?"

The chief protector nodded and asked in surprise.

Veins bulged on Xu Yuan's forehead. "I don't have enough Heavenly Dao Origin Crystals on me!"

"This one still has quite a few Heavenly Dao Origin Crystals on me. Young master Xu Yuan, you can …" The chief protector hurriedly said.

"No need!

This person dares to bid against me for the Profound Sky Sea Calming Vine. At this moment, he's already a dead man!

And his item will be mine next. There's no need to bid against him! "Xu Yuan leaned lazily in his chair, killing intent flashing in his eyes.

Xu Yuan's VIP seat did not bid again for a long time. Baili Qiuling finally dropped the gavel, and the Profound Sky Sea Calming Vine was obtained by Zhuowen in the end.

Zhuowen sighed lightly. Over a hundred million Heavenly Dao Origin Crystals was a huge sum even to him.

If it were before, he really might not be able to take out so many Heavenly Dao Origin Crystals.

However, he had just obtained ten supreme-grade Heavenly Dao Origin Crystal veins from the Thunderbolt Trading Firm. Each of those veins was worth over ten million Heavenly Dao Origin Crystals.

Those ten supreme-grade Heavenly Dao Origin Crystals were probably worth over a hundred million Heavenly Dao Origin Crystals.

Zhuowen planned to use those ten supreme-grade Heavenly Dao Origin Crystals to exchange for the Profound Sky Sea Calming Vine.

"Fellow Daoist, the implications of your transaction are too great. Therefore, we must go inside to discuss in detail." Baili Qiuling looked at Zhuowen coquettishly.

Zhuowen nodded and followed Baili Qiuling into the auction house without the slightest carelessness.

And the auction also ended at this moment. The originally bustling hall became rather deserted at this moment.

There were many figures moving about in the VIP seats. Although they had left their seats, they did not go far. Instead, they hid not far away from the Spirit Phoenix Trading Firm, waiting for Zhuowen to appear.

The most precious item in this auction was the Profound Sky Sea Calming Vine.

If this item was auctioned off by a major faction or super powerhouse, no one would have any improper thoughts.

However, the one who auctioned off the Profound Sky Sea Calming Vine this time was actually just an unknown itinerant cultivator. Moreover, his strength was mediocre. Therefore, many people set their sights on Zhuowen.

… …

When Zhuowen entered the room, he discovered that apart from Baili Qiuling, there were several other figures standing in the room. One of them was very familiar to Zhuowen. It was the ancestor of the Spirit Phoenix Trading Firm, Baili Jinglun.

The others were all peak Empyrean masters. They should be the upper echelon of the Spirit Phoenix Trading Firm.

"I am Baili Jinglun. I heard from my daughter that you bought the Profound Sky Sea Calming Vine for a hundred and eleven million Heavenly Dao Origin Crystals?

May I know your name? "Baili Jinglun was the first to greet him.

"I am Nianxue. I indeed bought the Profound Sky Sea Calming Vine." Zhuowen nodded.
