I was just making up techniques… how did all of you become Emperors? Chapter 276: Qin Yun: “I Feel Like He’s Targeting Us on Purp
Chapter 276: Qin Yun: “I Feel Like He’s Targeting Us on Purpose!”
“It’s that guy again!”
“Is that one of Myriad Treasures Pavilion’s fake bidders?”
“…”
The cultivators present began murmuring one after another.
Only the two elders of Dayan Holy Land remained silent.
What exactly were these Wendao Academy brats doing?
Could it be that they had reached so sort of agreent with the Myriad Treasures Pavilion? If that was the case, then it would be impossible to tell what they actually intended to bid on today.
After so hesitation, the two decided not to follow the bid. Though one million spirit stones wasn’t a lot for individuals of their status, neither of them wanted to be taken for a fool.
Qin Yun was also stunned. He had rely been curious about the qilin skull and was bidding for fun. Who would’ve thought soone else would try to snatch it from him?
Could it really be, as others claid, that the person in that private box was a shill for the Pavilion?
The vice city lord of Swordcasting City leaned over and whispered, “Xiaoyun, our target this ti cos later. You only have one million five hundred thousand spirit stones at your disposal.”
Qin Yun was montarily dazed, but thinking of the outrageous things he’d done back in Swordcasting City, he understood why his great-uncle had to issue such a warning.
He scratched his head awkwardly and said, “Don’t worry, Great-Uncle. I definitely won’t compete with that damn fake bidder.”
anwhile, Gu Sanbian continued the bid call: “One million one hundred thousand—going once, twice, three tis—sold!”
“Congratulations to the honored guest in Heaven Box Nine for winning this ancient relic.”
The auction hall fell into a brief silence.
Cao Youqian sat calmly in his seat, sipping tea, not even bothering to ask Ye Beixuan about it.
The auction proceeded, and soon they arrived at the sixteenth item.
Gu Sanbian announced, “Honored guests, the next item is also an ancient relic—this ti, a Demon God Bone!”
His words caused an uproar among the cultivators present.
“Did the Myriad Treasures Pavilion raid an ancient demon god’s lair or sothing? First a qilin skull, and now a demon god bone.”
“Old Invincible, hurry up and show us already—we want to see this for ourselves!”
“…”
Amid the chatter, seven or eight tall cultivators slowly carried a gilded chest onto the stage.
Even Xiao Chen and his group turned their attention to the massive chest.
Ye Beixuan, however, kept his eyes on Qin Yun, waiting to see whether the Swordcasting City delegation would make a move.
Creak—creak—
As the gilded chest opened—
Everyone saw a five-foot-long demon god bone lying silently inside, radiating terrifying energy, crystal clear and gleaming.
Just one glance caused many cultivators to feel a tremor in their very souls.
“That… that’s a Saint-grade demon god bone!”
A wave of shocked exclamations spread through the crowd.
Yet the major figures seated in the third-row private boxes remained silent, just as before.
Saint-grade demon god bones were indeed rare, but not sothing that impressed those of their level.
Gu Sanbian began to explain at a asured pace: “Everyone, after appraisal by the Myriad Treasures Pavilion, this demon god bone is the remnant of a Saint-realm divine child. It contains terrifying power and divinity. Even after countless ages, the divine essence within has barely diminished. This demon god bone can be used to forge a sacred weapon…”
As he finished speaking, the hall stirred once more.
“Old Gu, hurry up and tell us the starting bid!”
“This demon god bone is sothing my White Bone Sect has set its eyes on—nobody better compete with us!”
“…”
Gu Sanbian was clearly pleased with the excitent, the corners of his mouth lifting slightly. “This demon god bone’s starting bid is ten million lower-grade spirit stones. Each incrent must be no less than one million. Bidding begins now.”
The mont he finished speaking, a wave of bids resounded through the hall.
“Eleven million!”
“Fifteen million!”
“…”
Cao Youqian turned to Ye Beixuan and asked, “Beixuan, are you interested in this thing?”
Ye Beixuan replied, “No rush. Let’s watch for now.”
“No problem.”
Cao Youqian wasn’t particularly enthusiastic about the demon god bone. It belonged to so divine child who had fallen countless years ago. Although he had once been a Saint, after all that ti, how much divinity remained in that bone was anyone’s guess.
“Twenty million!”
Seeing the price continue to climb, Qin Yun began bidding as well.
Swordcasting City’s objective for this auction was precisely this Demon God Bone.
If Swordcasting City obtained it and forged it into a sacred sword,
then their ancestor might seize this opportunity to break through to the Half-Saint realm.
In other words, this auction was a major gamble for them.
“Twenty-one million!”
“Twenty-two million!”
The surrounding cultivators weren’t deterred by Qin Yun’s bids.
“Twenty-five million!”
Qin Yun abruptly raised the price.
“Thirty million!”
From the White Bone Sect’s seating area, a powerful cultivator wearing a bone-white mask—his face obscured—spoke directly.
That price imdiately made several factions reconsider their intent to fight for the Demon God Bone.
“Thirty-five million!”
Qin Yun shouted loudly.
The vice city lord of Swordcasting City made a hand signal of “seven,” indicating that the price could go as high as seventy million lower-grade spirit stones.
“Forty million.”
The White Bone Sect cultivator spoke again, his tone utterly steady.
Ye Beixuan narrowed his eyes at the two bidders. A thought surfaced: Could the key be hidden inside that Demon God Bone?
“Second Senior Brother, it’s ti to bid.”
Cao Youqian grinned. “Then watch work. Fifty million!”
While the price wasn’t shocking in itself, the familiar voice caused everyone’s earlier suspicions to resurface.
The price-pushing troublemaker was back.
Both Swordcasting City and the White Bone Sect cultivators turned simultaneously to the Wendao Academy box, their eyes full of doubt.
Qin Yun didn’t hesitate. “Sixty million!”
“Sixty-five million!”
The White Bone Sect cultivator didn’t back down either.
Qin Yun: “Seventy million!”
Cao Youqian’s lips curled slightly. “Seventy-five million!”
At that number, both Swordcasting City and White Bone Sect fell silent. The price had exceeded their expected limit.
Several White Bone Sect cultivators began murmuring among themselves, debating whether to continue.
Qin Yun clenched his fists and muttered angrily, “That damn fake bidder is too much! I feel like he’s targeting Swordcasting City on purpose!”
The vice city lord shook his head. “He’s probably not a shill—more likely so young master from a powerful faction. Looks like we may not get that Demon God Bone after all.”
Qin Yun asked, “So we’re just giving up?”
“Not yet. Let’s see what the White Bone Sect decides first.”
The vice city lord turned his gaze to the White Bone Sect, though he didn’t say the last part: if they couldn’t outbid, they’d have no choice but to walk away.
“Seventy-six million, offset with equivalent treasures.”
The White Bone Sect cultivator spoke through gritted teeth.
“Eighty million.”
Cao Youqian’s tone was breezy, as if that many spirit stones were just a number to him.
Upon hearing that, both the White Bone Sect and Swordcasting City cultivators fell silent.
Seeing this, Gu Sanbian continued, “Eighty million. Any further bids?”
After a few breaths of silence, he announced again, “Eighty million going once… twice… three tis—sold!”
