Chapter 96: Holy King Technique, Vying for Cultivation Methods

Wang Teng's words fell.

Soon after, many more bidders appeared, and the price had already been shouted up to fifty million top-grade spirit stones!

What does fifty million top-grade spirit stones mean?

Even a third of the spirit stones of an ordinary holy land is no more than that, right?

However, the bidding continued.

Soon after, the occupant of Heavenly Character Room No. 2 spoke, instantly shocking everyone.

A loud, refined female voice said: 'One hundred million top-grade spirit stones.'

This move directly stunned everyone.

One hundred million!

That's a huge goal!

Sss!

As expected of the person from Heavenly Character Room No. 2, indeed wealthy and bold!

Everyone speculated, wondering which major power from which region, with deep foundations!

Feng Qingyang of Heavenly Character Room No. 1 also gave a slight smile.

An elder could casually refine it and sell it for such a high price.

Indeed, capital is too terrifying!

Fortunately, he is the one who controls capital.

Afterwards, Feng Qingyang thought of something amusing, gestured for Xuanmei to come over, leaned to her ear and whispered a few words, after which Xuanmei walked out from behind the pavilion.

Below the stage, Wang Fugui also wore a look of dejection.

Damn it!

I, Wang Fugui, have sworn never to allow anyone to flaunt wealth in front of me!

But the astronomical price of one hundred million spirit stones is more than he can bear!

'One hundred million spirit stones once, twice! Deal!'

Su Yaoyao hammered down the decision.

But why does the voice from Heavenly Character Room No. 2 sound somewhat familiar?

Before, it was always an old man's voice; she hadn't noticed anything, but now it feels especially familiar.

Sigh, never mind, the auction is important.

'Next up is the second and final climax item.'

'Holy King Technique, the Lone Supreme Art!'

As Su Yaoyao's words fell, the audience below erupted in an uproar!

Their legs began to tremble uncontrollably.

Holy King Technique!

Never mind seeing it, they hadn't even heard of it before!

What an unparalleled cultivation method, capable of cultivating to a leading figure in the Holy King Realm!

In Heavenly Character Pavilion Room No. 1, Gu Dudubai also smiled.

This was his previous technique.

But in the sect, Immortal Techniques and Immortal King Techniques are commonplace; giving this Holy King Technique to a dog would be useless even for the dog!

So he contributed it, only able to sell it for some spirit stones.

At that moment, outside the Azure Cloud Sect's gate, the Black Emperor on guard duty let out a big sneeze.

Who dares to mention the Emperor?

Over at the auction.

The Holy King Technique had no set starting bid; it went to the highest bidder.

Heavenly Character Rooms No. 2 through No. 10 all began to shout bids.

As for those in the hall below the pavilion, everyone remained silent with eyes closed.

Such a technique as the Holy King Technique is not something they can touch.

Leaving aside whether they can afford it, even if they could, they lack the strength to keep it.

They still understand the principle that an innocent man who possesses a jade incurs guilt.

The people of Heavenly Character Pavilion shouted bids with red eyes; this Holy King Technique must be obtained!

'Five hundred million top-grade spirit stones, I am the president of the Central Region Xuanhuang Chamber of Commerce branch; gentlemen, give me some face,' came an aged voice from Heavenly Character Room No. 3.

'Six hundred million top-grade spirit stones, I am the Second Prince of the Northern Region Ancient Desolate Dynasty; I will take this Holy King Technique,' came a male voice from Heavenly Character Pavilion Room No. 4.

Northern Region Ancient Desolate Dynasty!

Those who knew shouted it out.

The Ancient Desolate Dynasty, one of the Four Great Dynasties of the Northern Region, has dominated the north for millions of years, with deep foundations.

But how did their second prince end up in the Eastern Region?

As for that Xuanhuang Chamber of Commerce up ahead, everyone merely glanced at it but didn't take it to heart.

It's just a branch; many branches of the Xuanhuang Chamber of Commerce exist in the Five Regions.

'We bid eight hundred million top-grade spirit stones,' came the voice again from Heavenly Character Room No. 2.

Inside the pavilion, Gu Linglong and the others stared fixedly at the Holy King Technique displayed on the high platform.

Having obtained the eleventh-rank Holy Pill, the Holy King Technique must also be secured!

She had a premonition that their Gu family would rise because of this choice.

Holy King Technique!

Qingyun Sect actually put this up for auction—utterly extravagant!

I don't know what she thinks about the Qingyun Sect members each having several immortal techniques.

As several Heavenly-character sized rooms kept calling out bids.

The Holy King Technique had already been bid up to a billion top-grade spirit stones.

Just as everyone was still bidding, an abrupt change occurred!

From Heavenly-character sized Room Eight, an old man flew out, rushing straight for the displayed Holy King Technique.

"Jie, jie, jie!"

"You bunch of idiots, keep bidding slowly—the Holy King Technique is mine!"

He didn't sense any strong cultivators from the Qingyun Merchant Guild or Qingyun Sect around, intending to seize it outright and then flee far away; with the Holy King Technique, he'd have nothing to worry about!

"Damn! Brazen robbery, this is!"

"He's done for—doesn't he know whose territory this is?"

That old man's majestic aura unfolded in the spacious hall.

In an instant he arrived at the Holy King Technique display, about to reach for it.

"Stop! This Holy King Technique belongs to my dynasty—hand it over!"

"Don't move—this Holy King Technique belongs to none other than the Canglan Holy Land of the Northern Domain!"

Heavenly-character sized—several strong cultivators flew down, initiating the scramble.

The technique moves hearts; if everyone were bidding properly, that'd be fine, but since you've started snatching, I can't just watch you take it.

Their eyes red, they faced off against each other.

Majestic auras began to collide.

The hall was in chaos, but fortunately this grand pavilion is protected by a formation; otherwise it would surely be overturned!

In Heavenly-character Room Two, the elder guardian behind the Gu siblings, seeing the situation was wrong, prepared to act.

Gu Linglong stopped him with a glance.

"Don't move—we disdain to snatch others' belongings."

"Moreover, Qingyun Sect is no simple matter—provoking them will surely bring down thunderous wrath!"

"Hmph, these people don't even think—Qingyun Sect has an eleventh-grade Grand Pill Saint presiding, and can bring forth a Holy King Technique of such magnitude—just how strong must Qingyun Sect be?"

Afterward, the old man was also startled—realizing he had acted rashly.

Without a doubt, these people will surely die miserably!

They were merely dazzled by the enormous immediate gain, and with no Qingyun Sect strong cultivators around, they dared to act recklessly!

Those two guards earlier were nothing to worry about.

On stage, Su Yaoyao panicked for a few breaths, quickly steadied herself, and shouted: "Do you all want to die? Dare to steal from my Qingyun Sect!"

"My Qingyun Sect can leave you dead without a burial place at any time!"

Just now a sect elder came over to tell her, "Be bold— the sect will always stand behind you!"

In a few breaths, Qingyun Sect's sect-protecting grand formation activated on its own.

Above Qingyun City, in the nine heavens, a beam of light descended instantly.

A terrifying pressure permeated the pavilion, descending upon those few who sought to seize the technique.

The majestic pressure forced them to prostrate on the ground, unable to move.

"Ah! What's happening? Who is it? Old man, get out here!"

"Don't!"

"I know I was wrong, please, sir..."

Almost instantly, those few silhouettes were ground to dust by the immense pressure!

Everyone stared in horror toward this side.

Several strong cultivators from major powers—without even a splash—were reduced to rubble?

Terrifying! Too terrifying!
