The villain is utterly immoral; with a dragon charging right in his face, how could he possibly lose

"2.1 billion high-grade spirit stones."

"Two billion high-grade spirit stones."

"Three billion high-grade spirit stones."

Gu Qing's eyes flickered, and she offered a price.

He was bored earlier, so he released the restrictions on the Qiankun Sword and chatted with He Ni.

Unexpectedly, when He Ni saw the Soul Infant Fruit, even her ethereal voice broke down, urging him to buy it.

Gu Qing was very confused. With her cultivation level, she shouldn't need the Soul Infant Fruit.

"Three billion high-grade spirit stones, is anyone else bidding?"

Chu Yao tapped the hammer and asked with a smile.

"3.1 billion high-grade spirit stones."

"3.5 billion high-grade spirit stones."

"Thirty-six billion high-grade spirit stones." Xu Tiefu gritted his teeth in the private room.

This is his limit.

"3.7 billion high-grade spirit stones."

Gu Qingdao.

"you…"

Xu Tiefu unleashed a terrifying killing intent, with wisps of bloody killing aura filling the entire private room.

He had barely uttered a word when he forced himself to hold it back.

The auction was being conducted by the chairman's daughter, and he dared not gamble that he might be kicked out and blacklisted.

Xu Tiefu stared menacingly at Gu Qing's private room, making up his mind that even if the person inside was the lord of a holy land.

He was determined to snatch it.

"3.7 billion, first time, second time, third time, deal."

Chu Yao made the final decision and then had the Soul Infant Fruit delivered.

"hateful…"

The determined successor of the holy land slammed his fist on the table.

It's not that they don't want to bid, but that they simply don't have that many spirit stones.

More than 3 billion spirit stones is a huge sum of money; even a wealthy holy land would feel the pinch.

"The second item is the Ten-Thousand-Year Cold Iron Heart, with a starting price of fifty million high-grade spirit stones. Each bid must be at least one million higher."

This is the very piece that Gu Qing obtained, which can be used to refine a priceless magic weapon.

In terms of rarity, it was far inferior to the Soul Infant Fruit, so there weren't many bidders.

The next few dozen items were not particularly valuable either, with prices ranging from several hundred million.

This is also normal.

An auction cannot consist entirely of rare and precious items.

"This is a top-grade Earth-rank magic treasure, the Fairy Flowing Light Dress."

Chu Yao took out a white dress with gold thread, which was shimmering with iridescent light and looked absolutely stunning.

"Hmm?" Gu Qing took a closer look and realized that something was off about the fairy-like flowing dress.

It's somewhat transparent.

It looks amazing.

Gu Qing couldn't help but look at the aloof and stunningly beautiful Su Qingyue.

If she wore it, her fairy-like face and temperament, paired with a fairy-like flowing dress...

hiss……

That must be amazing.

"I don't think any girl would dislike such a beautiful, shimmering fairy dress."

"If you have a girl you like, buy it and give it to her; who knows, you might just win her heart..."

"Moreover, the fairy-like flowing dress is not limited to this one style; it can be transformed into many different styles, allowing you to choose whatever you like."

"At the same time, its defense is also top-notch among Earth-rank magic treasures, and it can also change into flowing light and shadow to confuse the enemy..."

Chu Yao enthusiastically described the wonderful uses of the Fairy Flowing Light Dress.

It also uses true energy to activate the radiant fairy dress, changing into various styles, and can even transform into a fluffy tail and ears.

Where you want light to flow, light will flow; where you want light to shine, light will shine.

It must be said that the person who created this magical artifact understands men.

"You vixen, how shameless!"

Su Qingyue blushed and her heart pounded. She covered her face, unable to bear watching, and muttered a curse under her breath.

Gu Qing "..."

He originally didn't want to buy it, but seeing how shy Su Qingyue was, he decided to buy it.

After all, the cultivation world is too dangerous, and it won't do for the junior sister to be too shy.

What if the enemy uses this trick against Junior Sister?

As the senior disciple, it was his duty to train his junior sister.

He did this for the sake of justice in his heart.

He wanted to uphold justice.

Yes, it is like that.

Having found a reason, Gu Qing directly spent a huge sum of money, spending 1.6 billion high-grade spirit stones to buy it.

This surprised Chu Yao, and then a look of disdain appeared in her charming and alluring fox eyes.

She acts so aloof, but behind the scenes she's no different—a seductive little vixen.

Clearly, Chu Yao misunderstood and thought that Su Qingyue had asked Gu Qing to buy it for her.

"Senior brother, you..." Su Qingyue's cheeks turned bright red, and her clear, beautiful eyes welled up with shy tears.

"Junior sister, don't be fooled by that little vixen. Putting aside the disguise, it's an extremely powerful Earth-rank magic weapon..."

Gu Qing lectured in a serious tone.

"Is...is that really true...?"

"certainly…"

"That…"

"It's for you."

"No."

Su Qingyue shook her head and waved her hands repeatedly, her resistance evident in her words.

You've already bought it, how can you just give it up like that?

Gu Qing silently put it away, intending to return it later.

Once they return to their cave, where it's just the two of them, Su Qingyue shouldn't be so resistant.

"Next up for auction is the foot of a magical cauldron. Although we haven't identified what kind of magical artifact it is, it's definitely not an ordinary item."

“We couldn’t even scratch it with our royal weapons, so I suspect it’s a supreme artifact, a holy artifact, or even a divine artifact.”

"If a prodigy can gain his recognition as their master, they might be able to obtain an astonishing inheritance."

Chu Yao introduced the situation with a serious expression.

However, everyone scoffed at her words.

What kind of inheritance can a magic weapon's leg have?

If there really is a legacy, would your Wanbaolou be willing to give it up?

"The legs of the Sun God's Furnace, no doubt about it, there's no mistake."

The old man exclaimed excitedly at Xiao Yi's ring, but he quickly lost his temper.

"If only it were the belly of the cauldron, the belly of the cauldron is the core of the cauldron, and it might contain inherited cultivation techniques and supernatural powers."

"So...should we still buy it?"

Xiao Yi was thrilled when he heard the first half of the old man's sentence, thinking he could snag another bargain.

But when I heard the second half of the sentence, my heart sank.

"It's no use. The legs of the cauldron... no, you can buy them. You must buy them. Later, when your cultivation level is higher, you can melt them down into a magic weapon."

"This is a divine artifact forged from the gold of the Sun God."

The old man with the ring said excitedly.

"it is good."

Upon hearing this, Xiao Yi revealed a look of determination.

“This is a fragment of a divine artifact. You should buy it,” He Ni transmitted her voice.

"I know."

Gu Qing nodded.

"you know?"

"Yes, the cauldron's belly is right here with me."

Gu Qing was somewhat disgusted with the Sun God Furnace.

The reason is simple: the Sun God Furnace was so badly damaged that its divinity was completely obliterated.

An artifact without divinity is not an artifact at all.

In addition, the array patterns on the Sun God Furnace and the wear and tear on the material are also very severe.

It's almost become an inanimate object that can no longer bear spiritual power.

All I can say is that the protagonist's work is both genuinely good and genuinely flawed.

Repairing it is even more difficult than reforging a divine artifact.

As for refining and using it, that's not practical either.

The artifact's restrictions are extremely complex, consisting of nine layers, each with eighty-one cyclical restrictions.

Even a King-level expert would probably only be able to refine the first three levels after several hundred years of refinement.

In addition, the Sun God Furnace has the disadvantages of high energy consumption and low power.

Instead of refining the Sun God Furnace, it would be better to focus on refining the Reincarnation God Halberd.

"Oh."

"Judging from your expression, you don't like the Sun God Furnace at all?"

"Hmm, it's a bit tasteless to eat, but a pity to throw away. I can only wait until my cultivation level is higher in the future to extract the Sun God Gold from it, and extract as much as I can."

Gu Qing said helplessly.

With the Sun God Furnace so badly damaged, the Sun God Gold inside has probably been almost completely worn away.

“Why don’t you become my disciple, and I will teach you a supreme technique to greatly enhance the power of your Lesser Thousand Swords Technique?” He Ni said softly.

"No, thank you." Gu Qing shook her head.

Although he was tempted by the supreme Dharma that He Ni spoke of, he didn't think much of it.

Gu Qing has her own principles and beliefs.

With so many supernatural powers in the world, it's impossible for him to be moved by every single one he meets.

It's good if you can learn it, but it doesn't matter if you can't.

Anyway, with a godfather around, what we don't have now, we will eventually have in the future.

"Fine, fine, I'll give you one last chance and you won't take it, so don't blame me."

He Ni was so angry that she ground her teeth.

She had cultivated Taoism for countless years and had never seen anyone like Gu Qing.

Countless people knelt for millennia for her supernatural powers and secret techniques, yet she never even glanced at them.

But when it came to Gu Qing, it was discarded like worn-out shoes.

"Alright then, this is my most treasured secret technique, and I cannot pass it on to others." He Ni calmed herself down, her voice ethereal and otherworldly, like the sound of a fairy.

"What kind of unique skill is it? Is it very powerful?" Gu Qing asked curiously.

Gu Qing really wanted to know about a martial art even more powerful than the Lesser Thousand Swords Technique, just to broaden his horizons.

"It is a method of refining and nurturing, which can refine the world's divine iron, nurture peerless divine swords, and temper an unparalleled physique."

This is the core of her swordsmanship.

It determines the strength of swordsmanship.

"Refining and nurturing..."

Gu Qing's eyes lit up, and she murmured to herself.

Couldn't his Chaos Treasure Bottle Seal be used to melt down all things in the world and make them his own?

Although the Chaos Treasure Bottle Seal is not yet at the point where it can smelt divine iron, his Golden Gourd certainly can.

Thinking of this, Gu Qing couldn't help but get excited.

Indeed, there's a saying that's true: vision determines future achievements.

If he hadn't heard He Ni's words, he wouldn't know when he would have remembered to use divine iron to forge the Three Thousand Acupoints Cave Heaven.

It seems I should talk to He Ni more often in the future.

"Three hundred million high-grade spirit stones for the first time."

Are there any other bids?

"This thing is so powerful that even a king-level weapon can hardly damage it. Before it was damaged, it was definitely a magic weapon above the supreme level."

Chu Yao was somewhat dissatisfied with the price, so she had to boast a bit.

"Damn little vixen, shout it out, shout it out!"

Xiao Yi was extremely anxious. If someone were to become interested, he would have no chance against them.

"Four hundred million high-grade spirit stones."

Gu Qingdao.

"Four hundred million high-grade spirit stones for the first time."

"Four hundred million high-grade spirit stones, second and third time, sold."

Chu Yao made the final decision.

"you…"

Upon hearing this, Xiao Yi was furious.

Knowing that this was a fragment of a divine artifact, he was definitely going to follow it.

I just didn't want to rush things and give anyone away.

He didn't expect Chu Yao to shout so quickly for the third time, leaving him no time to react.

The thought of missing out on this amazing opportunity made Xiao Yi's eyes blaze with anger, and he questioned the situation.

"Chu Yao, why did you shout so fast? Is there something fishy going on at your auction?"

Upon hearing the words "insider information," Chu Yao's eyes turned completely cold.

Business people are most afraid of being accused of underhanded dealings; one wrong move and their reputation built up over countless years can be ruined.

Xiao Yi has crossed the line with Wanbaolou.

Chu Yao's eyes were as cold as knives as she spoke coldly, "Alchemist Xiao, if you can't give me a proper explanation today, then you can leave your life behind."
