Chapter 2952: 10 Million For Clothes
The first half of the auction merely served as the appetizer . The second half commenced with its first item .
A treasure robe inside a pushable cupboard spewing out auspicious energy as if it belonged to an immortal .
“This robe has a heaven-defying origin . Xuan Xiao, that’s all I need to say . ” The auctioneer introduced the item .
“Who’s that?” Not all have heard of this name before .
“True Emperor Xuan Xiao . ” A True God versed in history replied .
“Yes . ” The auctioneer went on: “However, that’s later on . When he entered Immortal Lineage, he was yet to be an emperor, just an unknown cultivator, a weakling from the lower realm . ”
“Impossible!” Many youths found this astonishing .
In their opinion, only invincible emperors or extremely powerful True Gods could ascend . How could an unknown cultivator make it through?
“According to the legends, Xuan Xiao entered the Bewildiner Palace and made it through more than one hundred locations . He eventually came across a coffin with a fairy inside . The two of them then ascended to our world . That’s all we have in writings, the details are fuddled . ” An old Eternal said .
“Who is this fairy then?” Many became interested in the person in the coffin .
How could a normal girl or a weak cultivator easily ascend?
“No idea . ” The Eternal shook his head: “Everything about her is a mystery . Xuan Xiao might be the only one who knew she is . Rumor has it that his achievements are thanks to her, becoming perhaps the only emperor in Three Immortals that can slay a progenitor . ”
“What?!” The auction house exploded at this revelation .
“Im-impossible!” Skepticism arose .
The gap between an emperor and a progenitor should be impossible to cross . The mightiest emperor was only an emperor; the weakest progenitor was still a progenitor .
Even the strongest twelve-palace emperor might not be as strong as a myriad-level progenitor .
An emperor needed to surpass a trial before entering the domain of a progenitor . Thus, how could an emperor kill a progenitor?
“I highly doubt it, there’s no way . ” Discussions sprung up all around .
A few emperors became interested in this conversation too . They knew that they didn’t have the ability to take down one .
“It’s true . ” One Eternal solemnly said: “It is written in history and accepted by other emperors and progenitors . The one killed was White Cloud Progenitor . ”
The crowd became silent and started glancing at each other . If this was accepted historically by the top masters, then it should be true .
“How did he do it?” This became the next question .
Some top emperors were present such as Holyfrost, Supreme, and Metalkin . They knew that they would be helpless against a progenitor .
“That’s why Xuan Xiao is listed among the five greatest emperors, extremely brilliant . ” The Eternal concluded .
“You are completely right, Senior . ” The auctioneer smiled softly: “This robe was left behind by the woman and Xuan Xiao . The thing itself is not a supreme treasure but its value lies in the potential experiments and research . The starting price will start at 3,000,000 . The buyer only needs five-palace true stones and up . 50,000 will be the bidding increment . ”
People began staring at the item . It felt a bit boring compared to the previous items .
The reason was very simple - the duo was shrouded in mysteries . No one knew who she was since she didn’t leave a mark on the river of time . The only thing people knew about her was her connection to Xuan Xiao .
“3,050,000 . ” Someone finally started .
“3,100,000 . ” Some were still interested in this regular robe .
The bidders were just more cautious . There was a clear lack of competition .
Plus, the price alone also deterred any potential buyer . Those strong enough to afford this amount felt that it wasn’t worth it .
“3,200,000 . ” More and more people gave up .
“That girl is mysterious indeed . I don’t know her background . ” The bull stared at the robe and said .
“You don’t know plenty of people . ” Li Qiye said .
“So you know who she is then?” The bull’s eyes lit up .
“4,000,000 . ” Finally, Tang Ben broke the slow increase .
“10,000,000 . ” Li Qiye casually jumped in .
“Brother, you got something against me?” Tang Ben asked .
“No, I simply have too much money . Of course, feel free to continue . Bet 100,000,000 . ” Li Qiye replied .
No one had a thing to say . Everyone knew that Tang Ben and this ordinary-looking fella were wealthy . The latter was on another level .
“Boss, you win . All yours then . ” Tang Ben was interesting in that he could accept defeat despite his pompous and arrogant act .
“10,000,000 going once, going twice…” The auctioneer said .
Three times and no one else interjected so Li Qiye won the robe .
Everyone was used to his insane style by now and didn’t bother competing with him . Moreover, this robe just wasn’t worth it in their mind .
Five-palace true stones were extremely precious . Most sects would consider this an exorbitant amount . Why would one spend so much to buy a robe of unknown effect?
The proceeding items were far more popular and sold at a high price . This made the auctioneer very excited; her smile enchanted the crowd .
Li Qiye had spent enough by this point to elevate his status . A worker came by to ask whether he wanted to go up but he refused .
A while later, the bull also wanted an immortal blade of grass and easily won .
Don’t be fooled by its appearance . The bull was extremely wealthy, far exceeding the emperors in this place .
Most emperors who came in person had something they wanted in the auction .
For example, Supreme True Emperor obtained a golden dragon arrow . He clearly came specifically for this item and outbid the competition .
A bit later, Holyfrost True Emperor won a gem with a pulsing holy light .
Their competitors weren’t serious and eventually gave up . They could see that the two emperors came for these items so it was better to do them a favor .
