“80 million spirit stones.”

Yuan Hao was the first to speak, his calm voice echoing throughout the auction hall.

Hearing this price, many people in the hall gasped. To raise the bid by 10 million in one go was quite bold.

Feng Yuan asked, “Second Uncle, I remember that the last time Spirit Essence Jade was auctioned, it sold for 270 million lower-grade spirit stones, right?”

Feng Yunqian was just about to make a bid, but when he heard Feng Yuan’s question, he replied, “Yes, why do you ask?”

Getting the confirmation he needed, Feng Yuan raised his hand, “300 million spirit stones.”

Boom!

As soon as those words left his mouth, the entire hall was shocked, and everyone stared at Feng Yuan in disbelief.

300 million spirit stones!

This price exceeded the last auction of Spirit Essence Jade by 30 million spirit stones.

Was the Feng family really that wealthy?

Who was spreading the rumor that the Feng family was broke? That person needed to be punished immediately.

A broke family couldn’t just pull out 300 million spirit stones like that!

Wang Ming and Yuan Hao both stood up in shock, their eyes filled with disbelief as they looked at Feng Yuan. The head of the He family, who had just been about to bid 90 million, froze on the spot.

Hmm? What just happened?

300 million spirit stones was such an outrageous bid that even Wang Ming was caught off guard.

Feng Yunqian was dumbfounded. Fine, fine, if you’ve got the spirit stones to burn, go ahead.

He had lived frugally for so long that spending spirit stones had always been something he did cautiously. However, he didn’t stop Feng Yuan from bidding recklessly—after all, Feng Yuan was spending his own spirit stones.

Zhu Li was also momentarily stunned, not expecting Feng Yuan to make such a bold bid in one go. But being a man with vast experience, he quickly recovered:

“Feng Yuan bids 300 million spirit stones. Does anyone else wish to place a bid?”

Wang Ming’s eyes were cold. He hadn’t expected the Feng family to still have so many spirit stones.

Damn it!

No wonder they had the confidence to close their shops. Even without income, they could clearly sustain themselves for quite some time.

Miscalculation!

Wang Ming quickly composed himself and spoke aloud, “310 million.”

He sneered coldly. The Wang family had plenty of spirit stones. No matter how rich the Feng family was, they couldn’t possibly compete with the Wang family. Today, he would show them what true wealth was.

Feng Yuan glanced at Wang Ming indifferently and raised his hand again, “400 million spirit stones.”

Wang Ming froze, his head slowly turning as he looked at Feng Yuan in disbelief.

He had just increased his bid by 90 million!?

400 million spirit stones already exceeded the typical value of Spirit Essence Jade, but considering its rarity, a higher price wasn’t unusual. Still, 400 million was a ridiculous number.

The auction hall fell silent.

Feng Yuan casually asked, “Does the Wang family head wish to raise the bid again?”

Wang Ming’s face darkened. The price of 400 million was way too high, but the Wang family still had enough resources. After a moment’s hesitation, he replied:

“Feng Yuan, don’t get too full of yourself. My Wang family’s wealth is not something your Feng family can match.”

“410 million spirit stones.”

Li Feishi joined in, laughing mockingly, “What are you showing off for? I wonder how long you can keep up this farce. You’ve already stretched yourself thin with that bid.”

It was clear that he believed Feng Yuan’s aggressive bidding was a sign that he was running out of resources and trying to intimidate the Wang family.

Wang Ming, hearing this, regained his confidence.

The Wang family had been entrenched in Myriad Demons City for so long. Even if the Feng family had some hidden wealth, they couldn’t possibly be as deep-pocketed as the Wang family.

Feng Yuan sneered, “500 million spirit stones.”

The smiles on Wang Ming and Li Feishi’s faces froze instantly.

The Feng family could still raise their bid?

Just how many spirit stones did they have left!?

Wang Ming began to realize that the Feng family might not be as financially crippled as he had thought, and the idea of their economic sanctions on the Feng family suddenly seemed laughable. Was the Feng family even worried about their so-called sanctions?

Wang Ming refused to give up, “500 million and o—”

“600 million spirit stones!”

Feng Yuan’s voice cut him off before he could finish speaking.

Wang Ming ‘s raised hand froze mid-air, unsure whether to lower it or continue bidding.

600 million spirit stones was simply too much.

Feng Yuan added mockingly, “Wang family head, care to raise the bid?”

Feng Yuan had an abundance of spirit stones at his disposal. Half a month ago, he had received a reward of 30 million immortal crystals from his system.

According to the classification of spirit stones, they went from lower-grade, middle-grade, upper-grade, top-grade, sacred crystals, to immortal crystals, with the ratio between each level being 100:1.

That meant 30 million immortal crystals were equivalent to 3 trillion lower-grade spirit stones.

Feng Yuan’s wealth was unimaginable. He had more lower-grade spirit stones than he could ever spend.

As Feng Yuan’s voice echoed in the hall, silence descended again.

Wang Ming’s eyelids twitched uncontrollably. Even his steward, standing nearby, was shocked beyond words. He blurted out, “How can the Feng family have that many spirit stones? I don’t believe it! Zhu Li, I suspect the Feng family is placing false bids.”

Many others in the hall shared his skepticism, finding it hard to believe that the Feng family could afford such astronomical bids.

Feng Yuan said calmly, “As long as it’s confirmed to be mine, I will pay the spirit stones on the spot.”

Zhu Li shot a cold glance at the Wang family steward and warned, “Please do not disrupt the auction proceedings.”

As a business, the Myriad Treasures Auction House naturally favored those with deeper pockets. Feng Yuan had been paying for every bid instantly.

The Wang family steward fell silent, unable to refute, but he still found it hard to accept that the Feng family could produce so many spirit stones.

Wang Ming’s eyes glinted with cold determination. He discreetly transmitted a message to his steward, “Send word to our people immediately. We will launch an all-out attack on the Feng family. This time, the Wang family will spare no effort in erasing them from Myriad Demons City.”

Feng Yuan obviously had more spirit stones, but raising the bid further was meaningless. Six hundred million far exceeded the value of Spirit Essence Jade. They had to act now to prevent the Feng family from growing stronger. Once they had another level 5 expert, along with Feng Yuan’s own breakthrough, the Feng family would be nearly impossible to eliminate.

The Wang family steward’s face turned serious as he received the message. He nodded respectfully and left the auction house.

Wang Ming remained silent, exchanging icy glances with the other three family heads. Without speaking, they all communicated the same murderous intent.

After confirming that no one else would raise the bid, Zhu Li declared the Spirit Essence Jade sold to the Feng family.

Feng Yuan paid the six hundred million spirit stones immediately.

Zhu Li glanced at the mountainous pile of lower-grade spirit stones in the spatial ring and couldn’t help but gasp in awe. He was elated—this year’s sales performance was sure to skyrocket.

Zhu Li then introduced the next item, an intricately designed pill radiating a faint energy.

“Now, we present the final item of this auction… a Grade 6 Dragon Transformation Pill.”

What?!

Wang Ming shot to his feet, staring in disbelief at the pill covered in dragon patterns. The final item was actually a Dragon Transformation Pill!

This pill was far more powerful than a Universal Pill, capable of directly enhancing a level 5 cultivator’s power. To Only a Grade 6 late-level alchemist could refine such a pill.

Wang ming’s eyes glowed with greed. Surely the Feng family, having spent so much on the Spirit Essence Jade, wouldn’t have enough left for this.

With the Wang family’s vast wealth, they could easily outbid the others and take the pill.

Wang Ming’s confidence returned, his smile growing wider.
