Nevertheless, becoming a member of the competitors required substantial capital.
One Azure-Dragon coin was equal to 10 Tiger-Head cash, and one Tiger-Head coin was equal to 10 Vermillion-Chicken cash. A thousand Azure-Dragon cash could be equal to 100 thousand Vermillion-Chicken cash.
Chu Liang’s total fortune was simply barely sufficient to cowl the beginning bid.
However he was, in spite of everything, a person, and having this a lot was already spectacular. The Demon-Subduing Pestle was clearly aimed on the main immortal sects!
“Three thousand Azure-Dragon cash!”
A transparent voice immediately quieted the heated ambiance within the corridor by ninety %. Many small immortal sects and households that had been desirous to strive instantly calmed down.
“It is an esteemed senior from the Penglai Supreme Sect!” the auctioneer shouted, “The bid is now at three thousand Azure-Dragon cash!”
A fantastic maid standing outdoors Penglai Supreme Sect’s personal room on the second flooring simply raised the bid paddle. Every personal room had a maid chargeable for receiving and putting the bids.
Revealing that the bidder represented the Penglai Supreme Sect was additionally necessary right here. If a bid was constituted of a personal room, the id was made public. The auctioneer asserting it may deter some rivals by utilizing the identify of a serious immortal sect, which was helpful.
If an immortal sect within the Divine 9 or Terrestrial Ten wished to purchase one thing anonymously, they’d naturally sit in the primary corridor beneath.
Inside Penglai Supreme Sect’s personal room, Daoist Chi Niu’s eyes had been mounted on the Demon-Subduing Pestle on the stage, full of greed.
Daoist Xuan Lu remained calm and mentioned, “This fashion, we will knock out the insignificant rivals and see who’re those that stay bidding.”
He instantly turned his head and mentioned, “Bid seven thousand Azure-Dragon cash.”
“What?” The Weapons Grasp was shocked. “This…”
Even with a ten % low cost and his private contributions, it nonetheless wasn’t sufficient. Tantai Jing’s bid was clearly far exceeding the accessible quantity.
“There is no want to fret,” Tantai Jing smiled barely. “You are not the one one. I even have some personal property.”
The Weapons Grasp went silent for a second earlier than saying, “For Mount Shu.”
“Sure,” Tantai Jing nodded with a smile, “For Mount Shu.”
“Seven thousand Azure-Dragon cash!”
As quickly as Mount Shu Sect’s bid was introduced, all the viewers was immediately surprised.
It went up by two thousand immediately!
It reached the utmost!
There had by no means been an public sale for a legendary artifact earlier than, so such a sky-high worth was unprecedented.
What sort of willpower does Mount Shu have?
It appeared that they had been unwavering of their resolve to deliver again the Demon-Subduing Pestle this time, even when it meant depleting all of the sources of their total sect.
The quantity of this public sale has already surpassed any transaction made in Taotie Metropolis!
Bang.
Daoist Chi Niu slammed the desk with nice drive.
“How did they get a lot cash?!” he exclaimed.
“It appears Mount Shu goes all out,” Daoist Xuan Lu contemplated. “Their sect positively does not have this a lot saved up. This implies they’re both taking from their very own disciples or borrowing from exterior sources. Both manner, this quantity exhibits their nice willpower.”
“Ought to we hold bidding?” Daoist Chi Niu requested, gritting his tooth as his eyes started to redden.
This quantity was already making individuals’s heads spin.
“Bid,” Daoist Xuan Lu mentioned with very calm gaze. “It doesn’t matter what it takes, Mount Shu has positively reached their restrict. Different sects possible will not be part of of their insanity. If we borrow cash from Yingzhou, we will certainly safe it.”
Quickly, a paddle was raised once more outdoors the Penglai Supreme Sect’s corridor.
“Seven thousand 5 hundred Azure-Dragon cash!”
Listening to this, the Weapons Grasp’s gaze dimmed.
Tantai Jing furrowed his brows and sighed, “Penglai’s basis is just too robust. Even when Fanghu Immortal Island cannot provide you with this a lot cash on their very own, they simply must ask the opposite islands, they usually’ll discover a manner.”
The Weapons Grasp fell silent.
Placing in such nice willpower solely to fail would undoubtedly ship a blow.
However at this level, gathering extra money appeared unlikely. They could not determine for the opposite sect members and dump different individuals’s possessions.
Furthermore, there weren’t that many rich individuals in Mount Shu.
Not solely was he silent, however all the corridor was additionally silent. Such a quantity was staggering. It appeared the Demon-Subduing Pestle would find yourself belonging to the Penglai Supreme Sect.
Daoist Chi Niu heaved a sigh of reduction, however his expression remained severe. “Though we have received, there will probably be bother after we return. We’ll must cope with the members of the Yingzhou faction.”
“So long as they can assist us, it is effective. Our island share an alliance with their island, in spite of everything,” Daoist Xuan Lu mentioned, shaking his head with indifference.
As Penglai was way more highly effective, the opposite two islands would work collectively as allies.
As they mentioned tips on how to cope with Yingzhou Island after retrieving the Demon-Subduing Pestle, a voice instantly echoed from the primary corridor on the primary flooring.
“Eight thousand Azure-Dragon cash!”
1. There are three islands of Penglai: Penglai, Fanghu, and Yingzhou. As talked about earlier than, the Eminent Ones who stayed on the Mirage Mountain got here from completely different both Penglai, Fanghu, or Yingzhou, which suggests the sect is split into three factions. ☜
