Chapter 611: One Supre Spirit Stone — The Crimson Sun To Is Mine
This price left many cultivators clicking their tongues in astonishnt.
An imdiate increase of five million—truly worthy of being one of the three great powers of the Falling Star Sea Region!
Such extravagant wealth!
But just as Hidden Dragon Island reported a price of thirty-five million, a calm voice echoed from the private room belonging to the Sun and Moon Sect.
"Island Lord Ying is really stingy. This is a sacred artifact once used by the Supre Cangqing. How can thirty-five million match its worth?"
After speaking, that person unhurriedly continued, "Sun and Moon Sect, fifty million."
Hiss.
The entire venue echoed with the sound of gasps.
Good heavens.
They were determined to obtain the Crimson Sun To no matter what.
A full fifty million supre-grade spirit stones!
It should be known that the Sun and Moon Sect isn't like the Rare Treasure Alliance, which thrives on business and trade.
So cultivators had done calculations in secret—adding up all the industries controlled by the Sun and Moon Sect, their total annual output barely reached twenty million.
It seed that this ti, the Sun and Moon Sect was pulling out all the stops to secure the Crimson Sun To!
"The Crimson Sun To has a fated connection with our Blood Sun Sword Sect. There's no need for it to remain in the Falling Star Sea Region. We bid fifty-five million."
The two cultivators from the Blood Sun Sword Sect spoke arrogantly, showing open disdain for the cultivators of the Falling Star Sea Region.
Such an attitude instantly drew public ire.
However, the Blood Sun Sword Sect was a dominant power in the Peaceful Sea Region. Compared individually, it surpassed any single one of Hidden Dragon Island, the Sun and Moon Sect, or the Rare Treasure Alliance.
No one dared to provoke this violent and unpredictable sect.
"Our Five Thunder Mountain Sect would also like to join in. Hehe, let's throw in sixty million for the fun of it."
From the private room of the Five Thunder Mountain Sect ca a woman's playful laugh.
All four major forces present had now placed their bids.
Each offer was higher than the last.
And every bid raised the price by at least five million.
Their participation imdiately pushed the battle for the Crimson Sun To to a fever pitch.
Wang Chengfu slapped his belly and laughed cheerfully.
With these major forces bidding back and forth, the higher the final price, the more commission the Rare Treasure Alliance would earn from it.
Naturally, this pleased him greatly.
However...
Wang Chengfu couldn't help but glance at the top-tier private room where the icy-cold master of the Profound Yin Grotto Heaven resided.
He was still sowhat concerned that this cave master might step in to stir things up.
After all, the Crimson Sun To was a sacred artifact once used by the Supre Cangqing.
The cave master might very well be tempted.
Logically speaking, the master of the Profound Yin Grotto Heaven shouldn't stoop to forcibly seizing sothing—doing so would tarnish the reputation of the Profound Yin Grotto Heaven.
It would also cause the many small sects that serve as vassals to the Profound Yin Grotto Heaven to feel fear and turn away from them.
But... Profound Yin Grotto Heaven was still Profound Yin Grotto Heaven.
If that cave master truly desired it, no one present would dare voice any objection.
In the end, they would simply have to watch helplessly as the to was taken.
"Eighty-nine million!"
After a long series of bids, the voices of the four powers had grown increasingly hoarse.
When the Blood Sun Sword Sect cultivators called out an exorbitant price, no one followed with another bid.
Hidden Dragon Island, the Sun and Moon Sect, and the Five Thunder Mountain Sect all hesitated, weighing whether it was worth spending nearly ninety million supre-grade spirit stones for the Crimson Sun To.
Ninety million supre-grade spirit stones.
It would nearly empty their coffers.
Even though they had co prepared, this was not an amount they could casually offer.
A sect is never a monolith.
Spirit stones, as currency, serve as the grease that keeps cultivators loyal to their sects.
If wealth is lacking, cultivators will leave in droves, and the sect will quickly decline.
The cultivators of the Blood Sun Sword Sect imdiately revealed triumphant smiles.
In the end, victory belonged to them.
Just then, a young rogue cultivator who had remained silent the entire ti suddenly spoke in a calm voice:
"One supre spirit stone. The Crimson Sun To—I'll take it."
Supre Spirit Stone!
These three words struck the hearts of all cultivators like a great bell tolling from the heavens.
Treasures of the Saint Rank are known as sacred items.
Saint Rank spiritual artifacts are called sacred artifacts.
Saint Rank cultivation thods and martial techniques are referred to as sacred thods and sacred techniques.
These are all long-established conventions among cultivators.
Thus, a Supre Spirit Stone is naturally the abbreviated na for a Saint Rank Spirit Stone.
A Supre Spirit Stone contains spiritual energy millions of tis greater than that of a supre-grade spirit stone.
Even more precious is the fact that it contains a trace of the aura of the Great Dao.
This is precisely what cultivators at the Supre Realm need the most.
Because at the Supre Realm, one must temper the Supre Bone.
The body is bronze, the world is the furnace, and the Dao is the fuel.
The aura of the Great Dao is the most indispensable elent in tempering the Supre Bone.
And within a Supre Spirit Stone, that aura is the most easily accessible.
With all these factors combined, the value of a Supre Spirit Stone becos unimaginably high.
A single Supre Spirit Stone can be exchanged for eighty to ninety million supre-grade spirit stones.
Even so, it remains priceless and rarely available.
So cultivators at the Supre Realm have even emptied their fortunes, offering one hundred million supre-grade spirit stones for a single piece.
Even then, they could not obtain one.
It's not that they're impossibly rare.
The five major powers of the Inner Sea each control one or more Supre Spirit Stone veins.
But such treasures are never easily allowed to circulate beyond their sects.
Under tacit agreent among the five powers, very few Supre Spirit Stones ever leak out.
As for those found in the Outer Sea, they mostly co from small, naturally occurring veins.
Difficult to mine and low in purity, the five powers have deed them unworthy of effort and simply let them be.
Precisely because of this, the ntion of a Supre Spirit Stone left all cultivators shaken to the core.
Sothing like this... showing up in a grand auction in our Falling Star Sea Region—wasn't that a bit outrageous?
By all reasoning, this should be currency used only by Supre Realm cultivators of the Inner Sea!
The Rare Treasure Alliance's leader, Wang Chengfu, sprang to his feet the mont he heard the term.
He shouted loudly, "Who are you, sir? Do you understand the consequences of making reckless bids?"
So cultivators ca to their senses as well.
Indeed, a few bold individuals had dared to place false bids at grand auctions in the past.
Their fates were all tragic.
Almost without exception, they disappeared by the next day.
Whether they died, perished, or were killed—it was always death in the end.
Under the gaze of everyone, that white-robed cultivator slowly stood up.
With a smile, he spoke, "I am Yue Xinglou."
Yue Xinglou?
Everyone silently repeated the na.
Ying Tianhao suddenly froze, then cried out in shock, "The Little Talisman King?!"
He was so astonished that he didn't even suppress his voice.
Hiss!
Gasps spread once again through the crowd.
The cultivators from the Sun and Moon Sect wore increasingly complicated expressions.
Especially the male cultivator leading them.
The Little Talisman King, Yue Xinglou, had once been a re rogue cultivator at the Qi Condensation Realm. Back when he joined the Sun and Moon Sect, it was this very man who had presided over the disciple selection ceremony.
It was also he who had watched Yue Xinglou leave.
Now, three hundred years later, Yue Xinglou had beco a leading figure among the younger generation of the Heavenly Talisman Sect.
Such dramatic changes in fortune—it left people sighing with emotion.
"Five Thunder Mountain Sect greets the Little Talisman King."
From the private room of the Five Thunder Mountain Sect, five cultivators called out in unison.
Yue Xinglou gave a slight smile. "Thank you, fellow Daoists of the Five Thunder Mountain Sect."
The Five Thunder Mountain Sect had always maintained friendly relations with the Heavenly Talisman Sect. The Storm Thunder Sea Region was practically considered their territory.
Now that the Little Talisman King had appeared, they naturally rose to show their respect.
As for Hidden Dragon Island, the Sun and Moon Sect, and the Blood Sun Sword Sect—none of them made any move.
Wang Chengfu trembled with fear.
What the hell?!
A humble auction in the Falling Star Sea Region, and now both the Profound Yin Grotto Heaven and the Heavenly Talisman Sect had shown up? These were two monuntal powers!
