Dual Cultivation: A Carefree Journey Through Another World, the Empress Falls into My Hands

The other private room owners, seeing Zhou Butong's reaction, immediately realized that this man in black was not someone to be trifled with.

However, some people continued to bid.

"Five hundred and fifty million low-grade spirit stones!"

"Six hundred million!"

Before the previous person could finish speaking, the man in black robes shouted out the number six hundred million.

Then, someone else called out a new price.

"Six hundred and fifty million!"

Upon hearing this voice, the man in black robes immediately shouted:

"Seven hundred and fifty million!"

The moment the figure of 750 million was announced, the auction finally quieted down.

Finally, the auctioneer brought down the gavel, and the sacred Bloodthirsty Blade belonged to the man in black robes.

After paying the spirit stones and obtaining the Bloodthirsty Blade, the man in black robes left directly through the Qingyun Merchant Guild's random teleportation array.

Seeing this, Zhou Butong also left the auction house directly.

It seems they're preparing to search for the man in black robes from earlier.

Of course, the auction will not stop just because these two people left.

Immediately afterwards, the auctioneer brought out the second item for auction.

This is a flower, without leaves or stem, with slender petals, radiating a bewitching red light, giving it an eerie feel.

"The Yellow Spring Soul-Guiding Flower, a seventh-tier sacred medicine, is born from the dead, full of vitality, and possesses the power of the Yellow Springs, capable of capturing souls."

Those whose souls are broken can use the Soul-Guiding Flower of the Underworld to gather their souls and regain their life!

Even if a person has passed away, as long as their soul is still alive, they can be summoned by the Yellow Springs Soul-Guiding Flower, thus having the possibility of being resurrected!

Starting bid: 200 million low-grade spirit stones!

"Three hundred million!"

"Four hundred million!"

"Five billion!"

……

The auctioneer had barely finished speaking when someone eagerly raised the price.

In the blink of an eye, the price of this Yellow Springs Soul-Guiding Flower reached 800 million low-grade spirit stones.

Moreover, it seems there is a trend of continued growth.

However, once the price reached 800 million, the rate at which these people raised their bids slowed down.

After all, 800 million low-grade spirit stones is already an extremely high number.

"These people are really rich!"

Originally, Chu Yunfan thought that having obtained the wealth of the Crimson Flame Pill Emperor, possessing hundreds of millions of low-grade spirit stones, and having earned several hundred million spirit stones through alchemy, he was already a well-deserved tycoon.

But compared to these people, he still seems a bit too inexperienced.

"A person's ability to make money is ultimately limited."

Resources are often concentrated in the hands of large families and powerful sects!

Thinking of this, Chu Yunfan became even more determined to create his own power.

While Chu Yunfan was pondering this for a short while, the price of the Yellow Spring Soul-Guiding Flower had already risen to one billion.

After all, a Yellow Springs Soul-Guiding Flower is equivalent to a chance for rebirth.

Even more remarkably, it can be used to resurrect important people who have already died.

A billion low-grade spirit stones, though frightening, are worth it.

To be honest, if he had more money, Chu Yunfan would have liked to compete for the Yellow Springs Soul-Guiding Flower.

Ultimately, the Yellow Springs Soul-Guiding Flower was acquired by the Shen family, the second largest family in Qingyun Sword City, for a sky-high price of 1.2 billion low-grade spirit stones.

It is worth mentioning that this Shen family is the family of Shen Yujun, the peak master of Yuheng Peak in the inner sect of Qingyun Sword Sect.

With the appearance of the low-grade sacred artifact Blood Drinking Mad Blade and the seventh-tier sacred medicine Yellow Spring Soul-Guiding Flower, the enthusiasm of everyone at the auction has reached its peak.

Because, at this point, there is only one final item left to be auctioned.

Traditionally, the last item, which is presented last, is the most precious.

Then, under the expectant gaze of everyone, a slender and beautiful woman, carrying a jade plate, slowly walked onto the auction stage.

However, at this moment, no one paid attention to this beauty, even though she was dressed very seductively.

All eyes were fixed on the jade plate in her hand.

However, a piece of red silk covered the jade plate.

This red silk can not only block the view, but also prevent the power of the soul from peeping.

Therefore, everyone can only look forward to the moment when the red silk is unveiled.

Under the gaze of hundreds of thousands of eyes, the person in charge of the auction finally slowly unveiled the red silk.

Then, a somewhat worn-out ancient book came into everyone's view.

"Cultivation techniques? Martial arts skills? Or secret arts?"

At this moment, everyone's attention turned to the person in charge of the auction.

This put immense pressure on the auction manager. Fortunately, as a Martial Emperor, he was used to grand occasions and was able to remain calm and speak at his own pace.

"This item, obtained from the ruins of an ancient sword sect, is called the Five Elements Reincarnation Sword Technique. It is a complete Saint-level sword technique, powerful and infinitely mysterious."

Starting bid: 300 million low-grade spirit stones!

As soon as the words were spoken, a loud "boom!" rang out. It was the sound waves generated by the simultaneous exclamations of hundreds of thousands of people in the auction hall that nearly caused the auction hall to collapse.

Fortunately, the auction house was protected by a protective array, which prevented any accidents.

However, this shows just how excited everyone was.

This is because this place is Qingyun Sword City, and the vast majority of cultivators practice swordsmanship.

It's no surprise that a Saint-level sword technique with immense power would cause such a sensation.

The reason why Saint-level martial arts are so powerful is that they contain the power of the rules of heaven and earth.

With the power of the rules, even the weakest Saint-level martial skill is several times more powerful than the strongest Heaven-level martial skill.

Of course, because Saint-level martial arts contain the power of the rules of heaven and earth, generally speaking, only those at the Martial Emperor realm or above who have comprehended the power of the rules can use them.

However, there are always exceptionally talented people in the world who can do things that others cannot.

For example, Chu Yunfan possesses the Innate Thunder Sword Saint Body, and the power of sword rules inherently exists within his body.

Therefore, even if Chu Yunfan's cultivation level is not high enough, he can still use Saint-level sword techniques.

So at this moment, Chu Yunfan, who had been completely calm, stood up excitedly.

"The Five Elements Reincarnation Sword Technique is incredibly powerful, perfectly compensating for the weakness of my swordsmanship's insufficient attack power."

Moreover, the spiritual power cultivated from the Yellow Emperor's Inner Classic has no attribute, so it can be used to perform sword techniques of any attribute, which is enough to unleash all the mysteries of the Five Elements.

I am determined to master this sword technique!

Muttering to himself, Chu Yunfan immediately took out his communication jade and contacted the fat man.

With Chu Yunfan's current financial resources, he certainly cannot obtain the "Five Elements Reincarnation Sword Manual"; he can only seek help from the fat man.

Upon hearing Chu Yunfan's plea for help, the fat man immediately agreed without hesitation.

Originally, Fatty planned to intercept the "Five Elements Reincarnation Sword Technique" before the auction and then use it to cultivate relationships within the Qingyun Sword Sect.

Unfortunately, the owner of the "Five Elements Reincarnation Sword Technique" believed that the auction would fetch a high price and resolutely disagreed, so the fat man had no choice but to give up.

Now that Chu Yunfan needs it, the fat man will naturally do his best to help.

In the short time that Chu Yunfan sought help from the fat man, the price of the "Five Elements Reincarnation Sword Technique" had already soared to 1.5 billion low-grade spirit stones, far exceeding the previous price of the Yellow Spring Soul-Guiding Flower.

Moreover, even with a total of 1.5 billion, there are still a few people who refuse to give up.

"1.51 billion!"

"1.52 billion!"

"1.53 billion!"

Hearing that others only dared to add ten million low-grade spirit stones at a time, Chu Yunfan immediately understood that this price was almost at the bottom line for them.

So, Chu Yunfan directly shouted out:

"Sixteen billion!"

After he finished speaking, there was a moment of silence in the auction house.

Immediately afterwards, someone gritted their teeth and shouted out a number.

"1.61 billion!"

"1.7 billion!"

Chu Yunfan immediately added 100 million, giving no one else a chance.

Just when Chu Yunfan thought victory was assured, someone shouted again:

"1.71 billion!"
