Chapter 89: Fighting for Wealth

  PS: Seeking recommendations and Sanjiang tickets!

  Don't be surprised, the fifth auction item is indeed a low-grade martial arts manual of the Earth level. The consignor is a Wu Zong practitioner who has made a name for himself in the northern part of Tianfeng Country. However, his name cannot be revealed, as it would go against the rules of the auction house. To cut to the chase, this low-grade Earth-level martial art is a leg technique called "Killing Empty Dominating Leg". When cultivated to a small extent, one leg can cause a river to stop flowing; when fully mastered, a hundred-meter mountain peak can be shattered with one kick. It's said that when reaching the extreme mirror level, air will no longer be an obstacle, and the speed of the leg technique will reach unimaginable heights, covering a distance of a hundred meters in just one step.

  The old man in yellow also did not hang up everyone's appetite and said it all in one breath.

  Boom!

  The auction hall was in an uproar.

  The previously unmoving VIP guests in the private room started breathing faster.

  The river water cuts off, kicks the mountain peak to pieces, and a hundred meters away is just one step. Having any of these three is already rare and precious, let alone all three combined. The low-level martial skills of the earthly level are indeed not comparable to the top-level martial skills of the human level, reaching a new level.

  Ye Chen didn't pay much attention to the first two, because Baquan could also do it. But the third one was surprising, 100 meters in one step, this is more terrifying than a hundred meters of speed, after all, at least a few steps are needed for speed, not to mention that killing empty Ba Tui is not just about speed.

  "This leg technique manual is mine now." In the private room, Ouyang Ming made up his mind. Although he already had a low-level and low-grade manual, it was a skill-building method. The leg techniques and knife techniques were all top-notch products of the human level, of course, they belonged to the most top-notch goods among them.

  "The starting price is 100,000 taels of gold, and each bid increase must be at least 10,000 taels. Let the bidding begin!"

  "1.2 million taels!"

  "130,000 taels!"

  "150,000 taels!"

  "180,000 taels!"

  The bidding for the secret book soared all the way up, leaving the warriors without a door or a faction staring in amazement.

  Ouyang Ming let out a cold laugh and raised his wooden sign, shouting: "Two million five hundred thousand!"

  "Who is in that private room? He suddenly added 70,000 taels of gold! His family wealth is too impressive!" a martial artist curiously asked.

  "Earlier I saw Zi Yang Zong's 'Little Godly Leg' Ouyang Ming enter this private room, it should be him!"

  "No wonder, among the younger generation of Tianfeng Country, only a few people can surpass Ouyang Ming in wealth, such as Feicui Gongzi, Duanmu Gongzi and Beixue Gongzi."

  "This auction, there are disciples of the same sect as Ou Yangming who aren't absent, for example, that 'North Snow Quick Knife' Lin Qi has also come."

  "Lin Qi, this person is said to have a promising future that may surpass Beishan Gongzi and become the number one disciple of Beishan Manor."

  "It's impossible for now, who knows in the future."

  Just as everyone was discussing it, another quotation sounded.

  "Three hundred thousand taels!"

  The voice was slightly hoarse and came from the second package room.

  Ouyang Ming's expression remained unchanged, "Three hundred and fifty thousand taels."

  "Four hundred thousand taels!"

  "Four hundred and fifty thousand taels!"

  That man followed closely, "Five hundred thousand taels!"

  To be honest, Ye Chen was shocked by the price and thought to himself: The person who named the price has a thick voice, should be a middle-aged man. A middle-aged man with 500,000 taels of gold must be at least at the Yuanyuan boundary cultivation level. After all, it's rare for someone in the Condensing Reality boundary cultivation level, except for the young elites of Tianfeng Country, to offer such an astronomical price of 500,000 taels of gold. As for the other person, he was a young man competing with himself for the Half-Step Sword Body, probably a core disciple of some major sect, and Ye Chen must have heard his name before, only unable to recognize his voice.

  "Six hundred thousand taels!" Ou Yangming's voice grew louder.

  "Seven hundred thousand taels!"

  "Eight hundred thousand taels!"

  "900,000 taels!"

  He wouldn't budge an inch.

  "Haha!" Ou Yangming burst out laughing, his face twisted in a sinister grin that made Tang Manlou and Li Ling's hair stand on end. They knew he was furious, but the middle-aged man was clearly not a good person, probably an expert at the level of embracing the origin, unless the elder of the Zi Yang sect came, otherwise they really couldn't do anything to him.

  Taking a deep breath, Ouyang Ming roared: "One million two hundred thousand taels!"

  Yedu dust beside, Wu Zongming sourly said: "This sect disciple really has money, although I haven't heard his voice, but it's very likely that he is one of the three major ladders of the young generation of Tianfeng country. Compared to him, we are too poor, poor and vulgar!"

  "Do more tasks and accumulate for a few years, you will also have so much money."

  "After a few years, it's not that one's wealth is greater, anyway, improving one's cultivation is the most important thing, and silver will naturally come."

  Ye Chen didn't say a word, but thoughts arose in his mind. Wealth was indeed better when it was abundant. In the future, there would be large-scale auctions, and he feared that even one or two hundred million taels of gold wouldn't be enough to participate. He seemed to possess over ten thousand low-grade spirit stones, making him a wealthy man, but if he were to exchange them for gold, his heart would still ache.

  "One hundred and thirty million taels."

  Prices continue to rise.

  "1.5 million taels!"

  "1.6 million taels."

  The middle-aged man's tone remained unchanged, without a hint of fluctuation.

  "Despicable!" A palm smashed the purple sandalwood inlaid gold table, Ouyang Ming's eyes were filled with red threads. If it weren't for the fact that he still had to compete for that treasure sword later, he wouldn't have gotten angry over this. Now using too much gold would make it impossible to outdo Lin Qi, after all, his wealth wasn't inferior to his by much.

  "One hundred and eighty thousand taels." Ouyang Ming decided to make another move, hoping that the other party would know their limits and retreat. Otherwise, when he entered the realm of Bao Yuan in the future, he would definitely kill this person.

  "Two million taels"

  "One day if I don't kill this person, Ouyang Ming will never be able to rest easy." The veins on his forehead bulged out, and a beast-like roar was squeezed out of Ouyang Ming's throat.

  The old man in yellow robes didn't care about these things, what he cared about was the price of the bid. This martial arts secret book, according to its true value, is worth around 500,000 taels, absolutely not exceeding 1 million taels. Now it has doubled to 2 million taels of gold, how could he not be delighted?

  "Two hundred million yuan once... Two hundred million yuan three times, sold!"

  ……

  The curtain fell, and what followed was somewhat low-key.

  The style of the northwest auction house is different from others, generally divided into three rounds. The first round is used to mobilize the atmosphere and stimulate emotions. The items in the second round are not more valuable than those in the first round, but there are many more, with dozens of pieces, each with a value ranging from 20,000 to several hundred thousand taels.

  In short, those unaffiliated warriors and others are waiting for this moment, one by one bidding enthusiastically, competing for the items they covet.

  The third round has begun.

  Unlike the first two rounds, all the items in the third round were treasures, with a starting price of at least 50,000 taels of gold, and some were even more valuable than the Kill Empty Fist Scripture.

  "The sixty-eighth auction item, a low-grade treasured sword, the Sky Splitting Sword!"

  The real show began, in the private room, Lin Qi opened his eyes that had been closed all along, and his sharp gaze was like a substance, flashing randomly in the void, like a virtual knife light, taking one's breath away.
