Chapter 1638

Seeing this situation, Han Li showed no strange expression on the surface, but inwardly, he was delighted.

Clearly, the value of this Gold Thunder Bamboo seemed even rarer than he had originally anticipated.

However, having said that, although he had mastered the technique of sacrificing thunder, from the extreme fear the several great demon kings in the Earth Abyss had for the Evil-Warding Divine Thunder, he always felt that the Gold Thunder Bamboo seemed to be hiding something else.

It was a pity that those great demon kings had mostly just been using him at the time; even if the Gold Thunder Bamboo truly had other secrets, they naturally wouldn't have told him.

And whether it was the Flying Spirit Race or the current Cloud City, he couldn't find much else related to the Gold Thunder Bamboo and the Evil-Warding Divine Thunder in those ordinary classics, so he could only temporarily stop investigating and leave it for the future to find the answer.

Just as Han Li's thoughts were racing, the bidding for the Gold Thunder Bamboo had already begun.

He didn't know which Sacred Race member on the third floor had made the bid, but the moment the words "250 million" were spoken, it immediately made the faces of many who had originally intended to bid turn somewhat pale.

However, there were naturally more than just this one person with deep pockets.

Almost in the blink of an eye, the figures of 260 million and 270 million were issued from the mouths of two other Sacred Race members on the third floor.

The voice of one man was unhurried, and Han Li felt it was somewhat familiar. After a moment of careful thought, he immediately identified the person's identity—it was none other than Qian Jizi.

This Elder of the Myriad Ancient Race also had his eyes on this piece of Gold Thunder Bamboo.

As for the other person, it was the man surnamed Lie who had spoken with ill intent because of the Heavenly Fire Liquid at the beginning of the auction.

Once these two price points were out, others who had originally wanted to compete also extinguished that thought here. They could only look at the Gold Thunder Bamboo on the stage and swallow their saliva in secret.

For a time, the great hall became somewhat silent.

"300 million spirit stones!"

And the unnamed Sacred Race member who had shouted the high price from the beginning remained silent for a moment before saying a figure that made Han Li's heart jump suddenly.

At this, Qian Jizi sighed, and then no more sound came from the room he was staying in.

"310 million! The one bidding over there is Fellow Daoist Jing, right? This Gold Thunder Bamboo is very important to Lie, and I hope Fellow Daoist can yield a little." The man surnamed Lie seemed to hesitate for a moment before reporting a price, while simultaneously speaking with unusual politeness to the other party.

"Brother Lie, that's not right. Since I am willing to bid such a high price, the Gold Thunder Bamboo is naturally equally important to Jing. I fear I cannot yield. 320 million!" The man who started the bidding smiled faintly, showing no intention of letting go, and shouted another price.

"Fine, since Fellow Daoist Jing has said so, Lie will not take what others love. I will yield this piece of Gold Thunder Bamboo to you." The man surnamed Lie seemed to know the other party's background, and seeing that the other party was determined to win, he immediately withdrew from the competition.

Only inwardly, he was naturally quite frustrated.

"Hehe, many thanks, Brother Lie!" The man surnamed Jing's voice was slightly smug, but the next instant, the voice stopped abruptly.

"320 million" came such a bid from somewhere on the first floor of the great hall.

The voice was pleasant and crisp; it was actually a woman who had spoken.

At this, most people were stunned and couldn't help but look in the direction of the voice.

The person who made the bid was none other than the veiled woman who had just won the Earth Nether War Chariot earlier.

Everyone, including Han Li, was somewhat stunned.

Just now, this woman had already spent such a large sum of spirit stones, and now she could actually bid such a sky-high price. This was simply too exaggerated.

Of course, this did not mean that the veiled woman's background was definitely far superior to the average Sacred Race member. But in terms of the number of spirit stones, she was indeed not comparable to the average Sacred Race member at this moment.

"340 million!" The man surnamed Jing's voice turned gloomy.

"350 million!" The veiled woman, however, unhurriedly reported another price.

And the man surnamed Jing fell silent again, but a moment later, he said coldly in an extremely icy voice:

"360 million! Even if someone bids one spirit stone higher than this, Jing will immediately yield."

But just as his words fell, the veiled woman calmly reported a price of "370 million."

Hearing this bid, the sound of the man surnamed Jing laughing in extreme anger came from the third floor.

"Good, very good! Since you are so determined to win the Gold Thunder Bamboo, I hope you can have a safe journey after leaving Cloud City!"

This Sacred Race member of Cloud City, having been outbid by a member of the Upper Race time and again, finally could not hold back and revealed his ill intent on the spot.

But the veiled woman acted as if she hadn't heard these words at all; not only did she not respond, she didn't even look toward the third floor. Only after Xiao Buyi announced that she had won the item did she unhurriedly go to the stage, pay the spirit stones, take the Gold Thunder Bamboo, and sit back in the distance.

The woman's fearless appearance instead made the man surnamed Jing somewhat wary, and after a few cold laughs, he said nothing more.

"Good, below we finally reach the last treasure of our auction, and also the last grand finale item. Hehe, I believe without Xiao needing to say anything, you fellow Daoists should understand what it is. It is a bottle containing a total of thirteen Myriad Wonder Pills. I don't need to say much about the wonders of the Myriad Wonder Pill. Not only is it an excellent auxiliary spiritual medicine for breaking through to the Sacred Race, but after taking it, it also has the incredible effect of cleansing the marrow and changing the constitution. Although Myriad Wonder Pills have been auctioned in the past, they were at most auctioned in quantities of three or four, or even just one or two. This time, the several Elders of the Crystal Race were willing to take out so many Myriad Wonder Pills at once to sell; to be honest, it greatly exceeded Xiao's expectations. If it weren't for the fact that I need to host this auction, I might have joined the scramble for this pill. Even if I couldn't use it myself, if a disciple could take one, that would be no small opportunity." Xiao Buyi said while shaking his head, his face full of regret.

Afterward, he received a small pale silver bottle from the armored warrior wearing a golden mask and held it high, facing the crowd!

Facing the last auction treasure, although he didn't know what the Sacred Race members on the third floor were thinking, the ordinary alien races on the first and second floors all had their eyes glowing, staring fixedly at the silver bottle in Xiao Buyi's hand.

Some had solemn expressions, some were uncontrollably excited, and others revealed unusually nervous expressions.

"Alright, I won't say any more nonsense; the starting price for this bottle of Myriad Wonder Pills is 300 million!" Xiao Buyi smiled slightly and announced abruptly.

Hearing this price below, after rubbing his chin, he crossed his arms and leaned back in his chair with an expressionless face, while slowly closing his eyes.

At this moment, Han Li's mind was not on the bottle of pills on stage at all, but rather he was secretly pondering where he could directly find the pill formula for the Myriad Wonder Pill.

As long as the raw materials were plants or the like, he could completely refine countless such pills himself. If this Myriad Wonder Pill truly had such magical properties, with the assistance of this pill, plus the several types of True Spirit blood contained in his body, breaking through to the Body Integration stage existence should be highly likely.

Han Li pondered silently in his heart...

Half a day later, in the secret room of the Cloud Dream Mountain cave dwelling, Han Li sat cross-legged, holding a light blue bag in one hand and a milky white small bottle in the other.

Han Li weighed the bag, a faint smile appearing on his face.

The bag naturally contained the premium spirit stones he had obtained from this Four-Race Auction; the quantity was so large that it should be enough for a small part of the super teleportation array. It seemed that if Cai Liuying were truly willing to bear half of the teleportation consumption, the remaining spirit stones should be easily gathered.

The last time he participated in an auction was when he was in the Human Race's Heavenly Abyss City; he had clearly greatly underestimated the wealth of spirit stones in the lands of other continental alien races. However, with this, the spirit stone consumption for the super teleportation array was finally no longer a problem.

Next, he only needed to take a trip to the Vast Cold Realm, help the Stone Cocoon Race collect some refining materials, and then assist Cai Liuying and Duan Wen Tianren in taking the items from the restrictions, and he could directly teleport back to the Wind Origin Continent.

However, the Vast Cold Realm was also an excellent opportunity to break through a bottleneck; it would be best if he could cultivate his cultivation base to the peak of the early-stage Void Refinement before entering, so that he could use the spiritual energy in the Vast Cold Realm to easily enter the mid-stage of Void Refinement.

Han Li pondered rapidly in his heart, re-evaluating his future plans and intentions carefully, and feeling that there were indeed no problems, he let out a long breath.

A flash of spiritual light appeared on his palm, and the bag of spirit stones immediately vanished.

Han Li's gaze flickered and landed on the milky white small bottle.

This bottle naturally contained the flawed Glazed Heavenly Fire Liquid.

Although this fire liquid was much cheaper compared to the several grand finale items at the auction, because it concerned the Nether River Divine Milk promised by Qing Tian Yuanzi, Han Li was extremely attentive and dared not be the least bit negligent.

This Heavenly Fire Liquid was said to be a flawed product, but Xiao Buyi kept saying that the efficacy of this liquid was still present, only weakened significantly.

Han Li naturally wouldn't believe everything just because the other party said so. He naturally had to verify it himself first to see what the specific difference was compared to the rumored Glazed Heavenly Fire Liquid.

Otherwise, if he truly took back something useless to Qing Tian Yuanzi, then he would be the one to suffer.

Now, as he examined the jade bottle in his hand, after a moment of contemplation, he suddenly opened his mouth, and a ball of silver flames was spat out.

After this flame spun around Han Li, it suddenly emitted a clear cry and transformed into a silver firebird.

Han Li then did not hesitate to toss the jade bottle in his hand into the air, and then pointed at it with one hand!

With a soft "bang," the runes on the surface of the bottle cap flashed, and it flew into the air.

Following this, the mouth of the bottle shone with red light, and a pillar of crimson light was spat out. And within the light pillar, a ball of red liquid drifted slowly out of the bottle.

In an instant, the entire secret room was illuminated with a brilliant red glow, while rolling heat waves surged directly toward Han Li.

It made him feel as if he were suddenly placed in a furnace of raging flames!

However, at this moment, the Spirit-Devouring Firebird to the side became exceptionally excited upon seeing the red liquid ball.

The bird let out a joyful clear cry, spread its wings, and flew toward it without waiting for Han Li's command.
