338. Chapter 338: Obtaining the Holy Tree

"Looking for death! I bid 9 billion!"

The Burial Demon Old Ghost looked toward the No. 2 VIP room, and the murderous intent was released without any concealment.

However, the person in the No. 2 VIP room didn't take his threat to heart at all and blurted out: "I bid 9.1 billion!"

The Burial Demon Old Ghost slapped the table heavily and stood up instantly. For so many years, he was the first one who dared not to give him face like this.

The Burial Demon Old Ghost immediately probed his soul power over, but every VIP room had a barrier for protection, and his soul power couldn't probe over to figure out the identity of this person.

"Are you looking for death! If you have the ability, report your name!" The Burial Demon Old Ghost said murderously.

The Jade-Faced Rakshasa looked toward the No. 2 VIP room with a thoughtful look, but had no intention of bidding again.

"Hehe! Who I am is not important. Do you want to retaliate afterwards if I report my name? Does the Burial Demon Old Ghost, one of the Four Evils of the Land of Sin, have this kind of measure?"

"The treasure goes to the highest bidder. This is the rule of the auction. If you want the Heaven-Defying Pill, continue to increase the price. Threatening me is useless."

The No. 2 VIP room came out with an old voice again, saying neither humble nor arrogant.

At this moment, everyone in the audience was shocked, guessing who the person in the No. 2 VIP room was, actually not even giving the Burial Demon Old Ghost face.

Except for the other three evils, there were really not many people who dared not to put the Burial Demon Old Ghost in their eyes.

However, even if they were beaten to death, they wouldn't have thought that the person sitting in the No. 2 VIP room would be a small Spirit Sea Stage Gu cultivator.

"Good! For so many years, you are the first one who dared to anger me. Then I want to see how you successfully bring the treasure out. Without enough strength, some treasures cannot be touched."

The Burial Demon Old Ghost sat down slowly with a gloomy face and didn't continue to shout the price.

He had killed so many Gu Kings in his life, and taking out 9 billion was already the limit. There was no way to bid a higher price, otherwise, how could he be so angry.

The Fourth Young Master in the No. 2 VIP room revealed a sneer. Competing with his Qian Clan Merchant Association in financial resources was truly overestimating his own strength.

Even if he were asked to take out another 20 billion, he could take it out. The Spirit Stones just collected from the auction were already an astronomical figure. If he wanted to compete for which treasure, who here could compete with him?

At this moment, the Burial Demon Old Ghost gave up the competition, and the Jade-Faced Rakshasa didn't know if her financial resources were insufficient, and she didn't intend to bid.

As for the other Gu cultivators below, there was no need to mention it. There was no one in the audience who had the financial resources to participate in the competition, so they could only reveal a look of unwillingness and give up helplessly.

Seeing that no one shouted the price for a long time, Old Qian finally shouted: "Now the distinguished guest in the No. 2 VIP room has the highest bid, which is 9.1 billion Spirit Stones. Is there anyone who bids a higher price?"

"9.1 billion Spirit Stones once!"

"9.1 billion Spirit Stones twice!"

"9.1 billion Spirit Stones three times!"

"Congratulations to this distinguished guest in the No. 2 VIP room!"

Old Qian revealed an excited smile and ordered the maid to send the Heaven-Defying Pill to the distinguished guest in the No. 2 VIP room.

Long Xuan watched them acting quietly. He didn't care who bought the Heaven-Defying Pill in the end. It didn't matter who took it away, as long as the Spirit Stones were credited.

The eyes of the other Gu cultivators were like they were growing on that Heaven-Defying Pill at this moment, watching the Heaven-Defying Pill leave reluctantly, and they all began to have their own ulterior motives.

Since there was no way to get this Heaven-Defying Pill through financial resources, their only way was to grab it by force.

No one can resist the temptation to improve aptitude.

Many Gu Kings clenched their fists at this moment, staring at the No. 2 VIP room with soul power, closely observing every move of the person inside.

The number of Gu Kings attracted by a Holy Tree was definitely not small. Feeling the massive amount of soul power shrouding the No. 2 VIP room, even Long Xuan, who was on the side, felt pressure at this moment.

He had already thought about what he would face after auctioning the Holy Tree next.

However, by then, most Gu Kings should focus their attention on the Heaven-Defying Pill, and there shouldn't be too many people paying attention to the Holy Tree, Long Xuan pondered.

As the maid sent the Heaven-Defying Pill into the No. 2 VIP room and walked out, bringing nearly 10 billion Spirit Stones into the No. 1 VIP room where Long Xuan was, the last grand finale auction item was finally brought up.

Because the auction party has a 5% commission for consigning treasures at the auction, Long Xuan got more than 8.6 billion Spirit Stones at this time.

After Long Xuan accepted the Spirit Stones, he looked toward the auction stage.

At this moment, a giant tree was placed horizontally on the auction stage. The leaves of this tree were very peculiar, actually in the shape of a crescent moon, and the color was also yellow.

It was just that the leaves on this tree were really a bit sparse, and I don't know who plucked it bald.

It doesn't matter if there are fewer leaves; with the Medicine Gu, the leaves will soon grow back.

However, under his perception, this Holy Tree was actually dead, which made him frown.

He needed to prepare the juice in the leaves of the Holy Tree into eye drops to make the Heavenly Mechanism Eye transform under perfect conditions, and the demand for eye drops for the transformation of the Heavenly Mechanism Eye under perfect conditions was very large.

How could a dead tree that cannot regenerate satisfy him?

Long Xuan kept tapping his fingers on the table, revealing a thoughtful look.

The Repair Gu obviously couldn't repair spirit medicine of this level. If he wanted to obtain a steady stream of Holy Tree leaves, he could only try to plant it alive, and he didn't know if it could succeed with the help of the Medicine Gu.

The Holy Tree was carried to the stage by several Qian Clan Gu cultivators, and it didn't cause a sensation. The scene was surprisingly quiet.

Many people were a bit distracted at this moment, still thinking about how to plot for the Heaven-Defying Pill, so how could they have the heart to pay attention to this Holy Tree?

It can only be said that the appearance of the Heaven-Defying Pill was truly not at the right time, stealing all the limelight of the Holy Tree; otherwise, this Holy Tree would definitely become the focus of the audience.

At this moment, Old Qian finally broke the silence in the auction: "Hehe! I'm really sorry, the leaves of the Holy Tree were already this many when they were sent over, it wasn't plucked by our Qian Clan Merchant Association."

"However, this Holy Tree is large enough for three people to complete eye washing."

"Using Holy Tree leaves to wash eyes will have the ability to immunize against all illusions."

"Not to mention the other effects of the Holy Tree, just by this one effect, it is worthy of being the grand finale auction item of the auction."

"Now this Holy Tree starts at a price of 5 billion. The bidding begins!"

Long Xuan didn't bid at the first time, patiently waiting for the first bidder.

However, at this moment, an accident occurred. The kid in the No. 2 VIP room wanted to run after getting the Heaven-Defying Pill. He didn't intend to wait for the auction to end completely.

As soon as he prepared to leave, everyone was anxious, and how could they still have the heart to continue participating in the auction?

"Damn it! He actually left!"

The Burial Demon Old Ghost stood up instantly. Just as he wanted to track him, he stopped his footsteps and looked toward the Holy Tree on the auction stage.

He wanted both of these heaven-defying treasures and didn't want to let go of either, but at this moment, how could he have time to shout the price, so he simply said loudly:

"I have a total of 9 billion now, so I bid 9 billion directly. Whoever bids one Spirit Stone more than 9 billion, I will hand over this Holy Tree!"

However, as soon as his voice fell, a weak voice came from the No. 1 VIP room: "9 billion and one Spirit Stone!"

The Burial Demon Old Ghost glared over immediately.

Participating in an auction once, there were nameless people who didn't give him face time and again. He was really going to be angry at this moment!

But in the end, time was tight, and he didn't waste time saying any harsh words, flicked his sleeves, and left quickly.

Not only was he anxious to chase the Fourth Young Master who took away the Heaven-Defying Pill, but everyone in the entire auction was in a hurry to find that Fourth Young Master.

In the blink of an eye, a large crowd of people in the auction left, and except for the people of the Qian Clan Merchant Association, there were not many left. Long Xuan was stunned on the spot.

No one wanted the Holy Tree???

"Old Qian, can you drop the hammer now?"

Seeing that there was no one in the auction, and it seemed that no one was competing with him, Long Xuan reminded him.

Old Qian finally returned to his senses from the stunned state. Even he hadn't expected such a scene to happen.

He revealed a wry smile and said: "Since this is the case, this Holy Tree belongs to you, so let this old man send it up to you in person."

After he put this Holy Tree into a storage bag, he led a group of Qian Clan Gu cultivators and walked toward the No. 1 VIP room.

Long Xuan also prepared the Spirit Stones in advance and put them into a storage bag, and couldn't help but reveal a look of heartache.

He didn't expect that the Burial Demon Old Ghost would shout 9 billion as soon as he came up, forcing him to take down this Holy Tree with 9 billion and one Spirit Stone.

The more than 8.6 billion Spirit Stones he had just obtained were not enough, and he had to add more than 300 million. The Spirit Stones he had managed to save over the years were completely bottomed out.

Long Xuan had just prepared the Spirit Stones when Old Qian led several Qian Clan Gu cultivators and pushed the door in, handed the storage bag containing the Holy Tree to Long Xuan, and smiled: "This is your Holy Tree, keep it well."

Long Xuan took the storage bag handed by Old Qian, opened it and looked inside, and after confirming that the Holy Tree was inside, he threw the storage bag full of Spirit Stones over.

At this moment, he revealed a thoughtful look.

Originally, according to his previous plan, as long as the Holy Tree was obtained, he would tear up the Hundred Li Talisman and run away.

But now there was an accident, and everyone ran out to chase the Heaven-Defying Pill, and no one paid attention to him at all.

Under such circumstances, was it still necessary for him to tear up the Hundred Li Talisman and run away?

After Long Xuan pondered for a moment, he finally decided that the plan would remain unchanged.

He would rather waste a Hundred Li Talisman than be absolutely safe.

After making up his mind, he didn't hesitate anymore, immediately tore up the Hundred Li Talisman that had been hidden in his right hand, and then a space fluctuation came from the room, and his whole person disappeared into thin air instantly.

Old Qian was still counting the Spirit Stones at this moment. Seeing a living person disappear into thin air in front of him, he was stunned for a moment and couldn't help rubbing his eyes.

But as an appraiser, he had seen many treasures and was a well-informed person, so he blurted out: "It's the Hundred Li Talisman!"

"This person actually has the legendary Hundred Li Talisman!"

"He's really cautious enough. In front of the Heaven-Defying Pill, no one wants to compete for the Holy Tree anymore. Is this worth him wasting a Hundred Li Talisman?"

At this moment, on the other side, in a corner at a distance from here.

"Damn it! How can his legs be so fast! This can actually let him run away!"

After the Jade-Faced Rakshasa probed her soul to the maximum range and still didn't perceive his figure, her face turned gloomy.

A red-clad female Gu King beside her sighed: "This person is truly too cautious. Under such circumstances, he was actually willing to use a Hundred Li Talisman to escape."

"The transmission distance of the Hundred Li Talisman has far exceeded the perception range of the Gu King. It's afraid it's difficult to find him."

"However, if we send a few more Gu Kings to search in the distance, if we are lucky, it's also possible to find him."

As soon as her voice fell, the Jade-Faced Rakshasa raised her hand to stop her: "No need, the Heaven-Defying Pill is important. We must concentrate all our strength to compete for the Heaven-Defying Pill, and don't disperse our strength on this matter."

"Since the Holy Tree has no fate with us, then don't want it. We will go to support the true body immediately."

As the voice fell, the two figures in this corner disappeared instantly.
