Chapter 684
"Oh, look at my memory. I almost forgot something important."
Zi Chen slapped his forehead and said, "It's like this. I built a market in this area. I'm sure everyone saw it before coming. This time, I'm planning to hold an auction there on the auspicious day of the market's opening."
All the cultivators looked at Zi Chen.
"As for the items to be auctioned, there are 61 Good Grade Pill Weapons, 3 Fine Grade Pill Weapons, 8 Fine Grade Defensive Leather Armor, 7 Supreme Grade Pill Weapons, and Supreme Grade Defensive Rainbow Armor. Oh, you should have seen them before. These items are all in the Treasure Pavilion."
"Other than the Pill Weapons, there are also some medicinal pills. There are Blood Vitality Pills, Blood Healing Pills, Blood Explosion Pills, and Treasure Pills. Of course, not only the Pill Weapons and medicinal pills, but also the Ancient Beast series."
What Zi Chen said undoubtedly tempted everyone.
The five great ancestors also looked at Zi Chen and asked, "What about the Sword Stele? Will it be auctioned?"
"Senior, you must be joking. The Sword Stele is the hope of the Heavenly Barbarian Pavilion's rise. Of course, it won't be auctioned. Oh, the Ancient Beast's blood essence that surpasses the Primal Core level will also be auctioned," Zi Chen said with a smile.
"What? You still have that kind of blood essence?" The five great ancestors' eyes lit up.
"I do have some, but there aren't many left. Therefore, there won't be many auctioned."
"When will the auction begin?" Everyone became impatient.
"From today onwards, the market should be decorated in a month. At that time, the auction will begin," Zi Chen said after thinking for a while.
Of course, a month's time was not used for decoration. It was for the forces to go back and get resources.
Back then, Wu Liu and Wild Wolf used 65 days to rush to the inner area. Now that everyone present was in the late-stage of the Primal Core realm, their speed would naturally be faster than that of the two of them. A month's time was enough for them to go back and forth. Moreover, there was enough time to collect resources.
"Okay, we'll go back now." The group of Primal Core realm cultivators left after saying that, afraid that there would not be enough time.
"Actually, you don't necessarily need Primal Stones for the auction. If you have any special materials, you can use them as Primal Stones to trade."
Just as the group of Primal Core realm cultivators was about to leave impatiently, Zi Chen reminded them kindly.
Everyone nodded to show that they understood and left.
The leaders of the various forces had all left. As for the rest of the family members, they stayed behind. Aside from the fact that it would be troublesome to bring them along, after seeing how generous Zi Chen was to his women and friends, they undoubtedly had the same thought in their hearts.
"I can foresee that many people will come when the auction starts." Wang Qiong smiled faintly in the hall.
Zi Chen nodded, and said, "That's right. Although there aren't many resources in the outer regions, they aren't that poor. There are still resources to be excavated, and Origin Stones to be earned. I think there should be people who are tempted by this place."
"To be honest, I am looking forward to the day when our Heavenly Barbarian Pavilion and our marketplace become the center of the Bedlam Lands. When that time comes, the five overlords will have to move," Wu Liu said with a smile.
At this moment, a Primordial Core cultivator walked in from outside the main hall. "Pavilion Master, people from the three forces of the barbarian lands request an audience."
"Three forces." Zi Chen was stunned for a moment, then said, "Let them in."
The leaders of the three forces walked in and told him the purpose of their visit.
"What? You are leaving?" Zi Chen looked at the three of them in confusion. "Aren't you waiting for the auction to start?"
The three of them shook their heads.
"In this auction, other than the items we sold, we should be able to get back some things. If you go back like this, you will miss out on many good things," Zi Chen said.
Liu Clan's Dan Yuan hesitated for a moment, and said, "Actually, we want to stay, but before we came, we didn't tell them to continue refining things."
"That's right. We are going to go back and arrange tasks for them." Qin Clan's Dan Yuan nodded.
In just a few months, they had gained many benefits. After tasting the sweetness, the two of them didn't want to waste a single second, so they hurried back to work.
As for Wang Clan's Dan Yuan, although he didn't gain much, he reached an agreement with the two of them. The Wang Clan would do their best to search for the remaining survivors, and the Liu and Qin Clans would give the Wang Clan some corresponding rewards.
"Didn't you bring people here? If you have something to do, just tell them to go back and tell them. You can stay and participate in the auction. When you go back, you can take some refining resources back. Of course, you have to personally send them to the transportation array. You should know that this place is still very chaotic."
The three of them naturally accepted Zi Chen's suggestion, so they escorted their clansmen away.
After that, Wang Qiong took care of the matters of the market, and Zi Chen spent some time with Xian Er and Yue Er, enjoying the few good times.
After this auction, Zi Chen would return to the barbarian lands to make his final breakthrough. Whether he would break through to the Primordial Core realm or die in the Lightning Tribulation or the Primordial Core realm, it would all depend on his luck.
Shangguan Bingxi didn't want to be a third wheel. Zhang Haotian had already returned, and now the two of them were enjoying their own private time.
"Zi Chen, you must come back alive."
The time they spent together was happy, but it was inevitable that they would think of unhappy things. Every time they thought of Zi Chen's near-death breakthrough, the two of them felt as if a knife was being twisted in their hearts.
Looking at the two of them, Zi Chen smiled and said, "Don't worry, my perfect body has already reached its current limit. The possibility of a breakthrough is very high. Back then, the Wuji Sect's Patriarch also foresaw my existence and made all kinds of preparations in advance."
Zi Chen's comforting words clearly made the two of them feel much better.
There was only one month left for Zi Chen to enjoy the good times. During this month, the three of them spent their days touring the mountains and rivers. They practically went to all the regions within a radius of a few million miles.
Between the mountains and rivers, the three of them could always be seen.
After the Primordial Core realm experts of the major factions returned, everything about the Heavenly Barbarian Pavilion was spread.
Foundation, resources, and experts were the key factors to becoming a major faction. The Heavenly Barbarian Pavilion had no lack of them. The rise of the Heavenly Barbarian Pavilion was inevitable.
Then, there was the matter of the auction and the market. When the Primordial Core realm experts took the Primordial Stones and left, many factions also brought their own cultivators to the market.
Everything was just as Zi Chen had said earlier. There were also resources to be earned in the outer regions. Hence, these factions went to discuss the matter of moving into the market.
A month passed very quickly. The Primordial Core realm experts of the major factions arrived one after another. Many of them had already discussed the details of moving into the market with the person in charge of the market. Everything would be settled after the auction.
"The auction should be starting soon. Let's go back." Hundreds of thousands of miles away, Zi Chen and the two of them flew towards the market.
The market of the Heavenly Barbarian Pavilion was equivalent to a small city. It covered an area of dozens of miles. The buildings were also lined up in great numbers. The streets were neat and spacious.
In the center of the market, there was a seven-story building. That was where the auction was located. It was also the tallest building in the market.
The auction this time was open to the major factions. It was also open to cultivators who wanted to participate in the auction. Hence, there was no need for an invitation. Everyone could enter.
Moreover, Wang Qiong had already left a place for the major factions. When the major factions arrived, they would enter their own boxes. As for the cultivators outside the major factions, they could only wait in the hall.
"Everyone, I, Wang Qiong, am honored to be the host of this auction. I would like to thank everyone for coming from afar." In the auction hall, Wang Qiong cupped his fists towards the boxes where the major factions were.
The cultivators stood up and returned the gesture.
"I am not a professional auctioneer, so I will not waste any time. The auction will begin immediately." As Wang Qiong waved his hand, the first item was brought up on a tray.
It was a jade bottle covered with a red cloth. Inside it were pills.
"This is a bottle of Blood Origin Pills. After swallowing it, it can instantly recover the energy consumed in the body. Its effect is slightly stronger than that of mid-grade Primordial Liquid. The recovery speed is also faster. There are ten pills in the bottle. The starting price is 655,555 high-grade Primordial Stones. Each increment must not be less than 6,555. Alright, the auction begins now."
As Wang Qiong finished speaking, various bids were heard.
"656,555."
"658,555."
"665,555."
"605,555."
"635,555."
Since they had seen the effects of the Blood Origin Pill with their own eyes, the crowd believed in this pill. The price rose bit by bit.
"855,555."
Finally, a cold voice rang out, and the auction hall became silent. No one called out a price.
"855,555 going once."
"855,555 going twice."
"855,555 going thrice. Alright, deal."
As the hammer fell, the first transaction was completed.
"Without a battle, this Blood Origin Pill can still be sold for 85,555. Not bad." In the box, Zi Chen nodded in satisfaction.
The three Primordial Core cultivators beside him were shocked. The Blood Origin Pill's value was actually so high.
In the hall, Wang Qiong took out the second item. It was an elixir weapon.
"Good Grade elixir weapon. As for its power and quality, everyone has seen it. I will not introduce it. The starting price is 85,555, and each increment must not be less than 6,555." Wang Qiong said quickly.
"05,555."
As soon as the elixir weapon was taken out, someone immediately increased the price by 75,555. However, such an increase did not scare the others. As soon as the other party finished speaking, another voice sounded.
"15,555."
"10,555."
"25,555."
"26,555."
"20,555."
"35,555."
"655,555."
Among the increments, the price of the first elixir weapon was set at 655,555. This was a price that exceeded everyone's expectations. The Liu family's Primordial Core cultivators were completely dumbfounded.
It was just an ordinary elixir weapon that was casually refined, but it was sold for 655,555.
"The third item is a bottle of Blood Recovery Pills. Its effect is to heal injuries. It can be taken directly for internal injuries and applied on external injuries. As for the medicinal effect, it is equivalent to a treasure pill that has been shrunk ten times."
As soon as this was said, it naturally caused an uproar.
A Blood Recovery Pill was equivalent to one-tenth of a treasure pill. Its medicinal effect was really terrifying. Moreover, they had seen it personally that day and mistook it for a treasure pill.
"There are six pills in this bottle. The starting price is 855,555, and each increment must not be less than 65,555."
The total value of the six Blood Recovery Pills was 855,555, which was equivalent to 05,555 per pill. This price was not very expensive compared to the effects.
"805,555."
"815,555."
"835,555."
"955,555."
"905,555."
