Chapter 1143

After the words of the beautiful woman auctioneer, the people in the auction hall were in a noisy mess. In Room 13 of Area C, Qian Tong hurriedly cupped his hands towards Yang Kai and said： “After this auction, nephew, don’t be in a hurry to leave. I still have something I want to talk to you about. Now I have to go and snatch this Void Condensation Pill. I’ll take my leave first.”

Yang Kai didn’t try to stop him either and nodded, saying： “Elder Qian, please go ahead.”

Qian Tong left in a hurry. The beautiful woman stretched out her hand and pressed it in the air. After the discussion of the crowd subsided, she continued, “Everyone knows the effect of the Coagulating Void Pill. It can increase the probability of a Saint King Third-Order martial artist breaking through to the Void Returning Jing . Our Dark Star is short of cultivation resources and there is no Void King Jing powerhouse sitting in town. The Void Returning Jing is our greatest foundation. But the number of our Void Returning Jing experts increasing every year is also very few. The biggest reason is that not many people can refine the Coagulating Void Pill. This kind of pill is a Saint King-Class top-grade pill, and the difficulty of refining it is no less than that of a Void-Class pill. The probability of a successful pill is less than two or three out of ten. Our Jubao Tower was able to collect one, and it also took a lot of thought. Now the auction begins. The reserve price is 100,000 Saint Crystals, and each increase must not be less than 2,000！”

The words of the beautiful woman entered Yang Kai’s ears, making him stunned.

That Coagulating Void Pill was clearly auctioned by himself, and it was one of the two. When did the Jubao Tower bother to collect it？ This woman is really telling lies with her eyes open. However, in the entire auction hall, except for a few people who know the truth, the others obviously don’t understand the origin of this Coagulating Void Pill. The beautiful woman said this on purpose to raise the price of the Coagulating Void Pill.

One Coagulating Void Pill is equivalent to a Void Returning Jing expert. Any force present will want it.

However, he clearly took two Condensing Void Pills there. Now the Gathering Treasure Building only put out one, obviously planning to make a big fuss about the other one, and this first one is just a warm-up. I believe that even if someone snatches it, they won’t be too fierce in the snatching.

A martial artist’s promotion doesn’t necessarily have to rely on pills. Pills are just an auxiliary means.

Yang Kai guessed correctly. The competition for the Condensing Void Pill is indeed intense. However, those private rooms with a solemn atmosphere just now actually endured and didn’t make a move. Instead, the martial artists sat in the hall competing to bid. In a short period of time the price soared from the base price of 100,000 to 280,000.

The forces behind those martial artists don’t have as strong capital as the forces in the private rooms and the number of Void Returning Realm powerhouses is also pitifully small. One Condensing Void Pill may not be a big deal for the big forces. After all, it can only cultivate one Void Returning Realm martial artist. But for those small forces, it’s different. One more Void Returning Realm martial artist may be able to elevate the status of the sect or family by a lot.

Like the Heike family and the Xu family, there are more than a dozen Saint King Third-layer Realm martial artists, but there are no Void Returning Realm powerhouses. If they could be given one Condensing Void Pill they could completely disengage from the peripheral forces and enter the interior of the Shadow Moon Palace to enjoy different treatment.

So they are scrambling for this one Condensing Void Pill.

After the price reached 280,000 the quotation in the hall gradually weakened. 280,000 high-grade Saint Crystals is estimated also the bottom line of these people. Even if they want it no matter what, they are powerless to pay anymore.

“Friend number three hundred and twenty-one bids twenty-eight thousand. Is there any higher price？” The beautiful woman auctioneer shouted maliciously again, looking around with her beautiful eyes.

And the person who called out the price of twenty-eight thousand stood up excitedly, looking around, with a nervous and eager expression on his face, for fear that someone would offer a higher price and suppress him. He even couldn’t wait to shout at the beautiful woman, “Hurry up and count the times. No one is adding more. Hurry up.”

The beautiful woman seemed to be very understanding. Hearing this, she smiled slightly and shouted loudly, “Twenty-eight thousand once…”

“Thirty thousand！” Suddenly, a deep voice came from a private room, interrupting the beautiful woman’s words.

The beautiful woman was stunned. She looked towards the private room along the voice, and a hint of understanding flashed in her beautiful eyes. She waited quietly.

And the warrior who was about to succeed, when he saw that the voice reporting the price of thirty thousand came from a private room numbered A, he immediately sat down with a gloomy expression and was very dejected for a while.

Not to mention that others’ quotations are higher than his. Just the identity and status of the person in the private room numbered A are not something he can provoke. That person has not made a move. It seems that he doesn’t want to participate in the auction with these cats and dogs in the hall and is only ready to make the final decision at a critical moment.

It can be said that his method is also very good. First, he gave the warriors in the hall the opportunity to quote, and then he made a strong move to show his wealth and ability.

Sure enough, no one in the hall quoted a price anymore.

The beautiful woman slightly opened her red lips and was about to call out the number of times again. In her opinion, although a Void Condensing Pill was precious and rare, the price of 300,000 top-grade Saint Crystals was almost enough.

But before she could speak, someone actually quoted a price again, and the amount of the increase was very outrageous.

“400,000！” After the person who quoted the price reported the price, he also let out a hehe laugh： “Such a precious thing as the Void Condensing Pill, of course, the increase should be enjoyable. What’s the point of increasing it by 10,000 or 20,000 at a time？”

This words sounded as if it was satirizing the warrior in the Armor-1 private room who had quoted 300,000 before but no one felt that there was any problem, because the person who was now quoting the price was also in the Armor-1 private room, and his status and identity were obviously not lower than that of the previous person.

On Dark Star, the major forces were not all harmonious. There was a lot of open strife and veiled struggle, and many were even life-and-death enemies. Smart people had already guessed whether there was any grudge between the two people who quoted the price, or whether the forces they were in had grudges. Otherwise, why would they be so targeted？

“Elder Qian…” In the Bing-13 private room, Wu Yi let out a stunned low cry because she recognized that the person who quoted 400,000 was actually Qian Tong’s voice. This old fellow had just left here, and in the blink of an eye, he was spending money like water. I don’t know where he got so many Saint Crystals from.

Yang Kai’s expression was strange, frowning slightly. He couldn’t figure out what Qian Tong was up to. He clearly knew that the Void Condensing Pill was something he was going to bid for. Why did he deliberately raise the price so high? What if it ended up in his own hands? Wouldn’t he lose money? Or did he really want it?

If he was deliberately raising the price, then he wanted to buy it back at a high price to do him a favor. But after thinking about it again, it didn’t seem right. Qian Tong must know that there was another better Void Condensing Pill. There was no need to do this. If he really wanted to do him a favor, he could just raise the price when the other Void Condensing Pill was brought out.

It seems that Qian Tong has some kind of grudge with the person who quoted the price before. Yang Kai guessed in his heart.

“Hmph, 410,000！” That person seemed not to have heard the sarcasm in Qian Tong’s words. After a cold snort, he raised the price by 10,000 again.

“500,000！” In comparison, Qian Tong seemed very rich and powerful, adding integers one after another, attracting the attention of many martial artists in the hall and secretly admiring him.

“Five hundred and ten thousand!”

“Six hundred thousand!”

“……”

The two seemed to be competing with each other. In the auction hall, only the sound of Qian Tong and that person’s bidding could be heard. The price of the Void Condensing Pill kept rising, making Yang Kai feel as if he was in a dream and almost couldn’t believe that the pill he casually refined was actually so expensive.

He had previously asked Wu Yi what kind of pills were more expensive. Wu Yi said that the Void Condensing Pill and the Void Nirvana Pill were expensive. He couldn’t refine the Void Nirvana Pill, so he casually refined two Void Condensing Pills. He was also afraid that the two Void-level secret treasures of Yang Yan wouldn’t sell for a high price, so he wanted to do his best. Who would have thought that the price of one Void Condensing Pill would satisfy him.

With six hundred thousand top-grade Saint Crystals, a large number of precious materials can be purchased, and it is not a wishful thinking for Yang Yan to arrange a formation to cover the entire Dragon Cave Mountain.

Moreover, the quotations of Qian Tong and that person were still continuing, and in the blink of an eye, it had soared to seven hundred and ten thousand！

Countless sighs came from the private rooms. It seemed that everyone felt that these two guys were crazy. How could they raise the price of a Void Condensing Pill so high? Even if they had a deep hatred, they wouldn’t do this. This set a precedent. What should we do if there is another Void Condensing Pill in the future? Are we going to auction it at such a high price? Only a fool would buy it.

So many Saint Crystals. The rich are really terrifying. Wu Yi smiled bitterly. Thinking about how the Hake family was struggling at the bottom for a few thousand or tens of thousands of Saint Crystals, but in the auction field of the Jubaolou, there were many rich and noble people who spent money like water.

“Soon these Saint Crystals will be ours.” Yang Kai sniffed.

“Why？” Wu Yi looked at him in surprise.

“That Void Condensing Pill was auctioned by me.”

“What？” Wu Yi and Yang Yan were both shocked and looked at Yang Kai in disbelief. Even the two female disciples of the Shadow Moon Palace had their small mouths slightly open, seemingly not expecting that the person they were responsible for serving was actually so rich. No matter what his background was, with more than seven hundred thousand Saint Crystals, his status immediately rose.

“Eight hundred thousand！” Qian Tong’s voice still sounded unhurriedly, as if what he reported was not eight hundred thousand, but eighty thousand Saint Crystals, or even eight thousand Saint Crystals, without any sign of distress.

“Nine hundred thousand！” The person competing with Qian Tong also got angry, abandoning the previous way of increasing by ten thousand each time and directly raising the price by one hundred thousand. He said with great momentum, “Qian Tong, you old bastard, if you want to fight, I will accompany you. There is no need to disgust me like this. Hundreds of thousands of Saint Crystals are nothing to my Sea Palace.”

“Hahaha！” Qian Tong’s laughter came out. “Jiang Huaian, what do you mean by that? Is this your first time participating in the auction of the Gathering Treasure Tower? Don’t you understand the principle that for any item participating in the auction, the one with the highest price gets it? I like this Condensing Void Pill, so of course I can bid as I like. If you can’t afford it, don’t fight with me. Don’t say some unnecessary things. I don’t have much else, but I have a lot of Saint Crystals. Oh, I just picked up tens of millions of Saint Crystals and have nowhere to use them. What else can I do but buy something I like? Can I still take them into the coffin?”

As soon as these words were spoken, voices of spurning immediately came from the various private rooms. The expert from the Sea Palace named Jiang Huaian was so angry that he almost vomited blood.

The Saint Crystals that Qian Tong mentioned as being picked up, almost everyone in the private rooms had a share in them. Naturally, there was also a contribution from the Sea Palace. Using other people’s Saint Crystals to snatch things from others was simply inhumane. Qian Tong’s actions were really too immoral.
