681. Chapter 679: The Demon Tribe Is Truly Arrogant

This price far exceeded everyone's expectations, also provoking dissatisfaction and threats from the Three Great Sects.

"The Demon Lord is truly arrogant!"

"I think he just doesn't dare to directly go to war with us Three Great Sects!"

A disciple of the Three Great Sects said angrily.

"We cannot let the Demon Sect be so arrogant, otherwise it will bring us endless trouble in the future!"

Another disciple also felt indignant.

Zi Xi'er saw the change in everyone's expressions, suddenly stood up, and said solemnly: "Things have come to this; we can no longer stand by and do nothing."

"I will personally go find the Supreme Dao Ancestor and ask him to step in to resolve this issue."

Lu Yuan took a deep breath, nodded, and said: "Since it concerns the safety of the Three Great Sects, I will do my utmost to stop the Demon Sect's expansion."

"The Supreme Dao Ancestor is our teacher for this cultivation; in a critical moment he will surely step forward for us."

Su Liyan gripped the Ice Crystal Long Whip tightly, her face full of determination: "No matter what, we must defeat the Demon Sect!"

Everyone nodded in agreement, determined to defend the interests of the Three Great Sects and absolutely not allow the Demon Sect to act recklessly.

As time passed, the cultivators in the auction hall focused entirely on the treasures before them, forgetting everything outside.

They all bid on their favorite magical treasures or rare spirit medicines, hoping to find an opportunity here to enhance their own strength.

In this tense and intense atmosphere, the sun had already fully set in the west, and the sky grew dim.

Lu Yuan and Su Liyan eyed each other, seeing that after the auction ended and the items were delivered to the buyers, there were still some magical treasures and spirit medicines haphazardly placed.

The two exchanged a glance and, tacitly understanding each other, came together, having already figured out what the other was thinking.

Suddenly, at the display position under the spotlight, a rare spirit medicine named Heavenly Feather Pill of the Great Wilderness Intermediate grade appeared, standing upright.

It is said to help cultivators break through from the Nascent Soul Stage to the God Transformation Stage, thus attracting great attention.

Upon hearing the host's introduction, the cultivators listened attentively, seemingly forgetting the noisy market district that had been shaken and remained silent over the past two days.

"Opening bid: five million spirit stones!"

The auctioneer announced loudly, and the hall immediately erupted in an uproar.

Lu Yuan and Su Liyan exchanged a glance, seeing each other's interest.

If they could obtain this spirit medicine, their cultivation progress would skyrocket.

To them, such a spirit medicine is absolutely a priceless treasure.

"Seven million spirit stones!"

Lu Yuan shouted his bid without hiding his excitement.

Then a voice from the VIP room, that of a mysterious woman, came: "Eight million spirit stones!"

This bidding war sparked a contest among the three major powers of Myriad Ancient Pavilion, Azure Void Hall, and Mystic Heaven Academy.

They all hoped to obtain this treasure that could decide their future fate.

"Ten million spirit stones!" The Demon Lord, with a high bid, moved the market, frightening the other bidders into silence.

But when it was Zi Xi'er's turn to bid, she frowned and said: "Grandfather said it's not worth too much."

She slowly said: "Nine hundred fifty million."

Lu Yuan immediately replied: "One thousand spirit stones!"

After several rounds of fierce bidding, the Heavenly Feather Pill was ultimately won by Zi Xi'er.

When the auction ended, Lu Yuan, Su Liyan, and Zi Xi'er agreed to meet at a teahouse outside the auction hall.

They had just sat down when Mu Feng walked straight over, smiling and greeting them.

"Lu Shao Jun, Miss Su, I have long admired your great names."

"Being able to interact with you is truly my honor." Mu Feng said humbly.

Lu Yuan considered Mu Feng's intentions and did not reject his inclusion.

After all, at this auction they discovered his particular fondness for spirit medicines.

Everyone followed the topic and began chatting; Mu Feng revealed his plan for future spirit medicine trade.

"I intend to use this auction's acquisition of the Heavenly Feather Pill as a foundation, and in the future more similar rare spirit medicines will appear on the market."

"I will use my resources to collect these items and, through trade, obtain substantial profits."

Mu Feng said excitedly.

Upon hearing this plan, everyone couldn't help but feel anticipation and longing.

If they could obtain more spirit medicines similar to the Heavenly Feather Pill, it would greatly help them improve their cultivation.

Lu Yuan pondered for a moment and said: "Brother Mu Feng, your plan seems good, but the production of spirit medicines is limited, and auctions are also relatively confidential places."

"It might be necessary to obtain more information through one's own connections."

"The chance to buy spirit medicines through auctions like this is not many."

Su Liyan also couldn't help but agree: "Yes, Brother Mu Feng, you might also need to seek other channels."

Mu Feng, hearing their words, showed a slightly embarrassed smile: "You're right."

"My plan indeed has problems."

"Actually, I know some information, but it's limited to certain channels within the Heavenly Origin Kingdom."

"It seems I need to seek broader resources."

While Mu Feng was pondering how to find broader resources, he suddenly heard a familiar laugh.

Turning his head, he saw two old friends: the Iron-Armed Strongman Wu Jian and the Phantom Sword Guest Murong Ying.

"Mu Feng, my younger brother! Long time no see!"

Wu Jian laughed and patted Mu Feng on the shoulder.

"Yeah, you look in good spirits, your injury is almost healed, right?" Mu Feng asked concernedly.

Wu Jian nodded, smiling and said: "Yeah, thanks to my master Supreme Dao Ancestor saving my life."

"But let's talk about those things later; now that we've all met here, it's also fate."

"However, I heard you, Mu Feng, also participated in this auction."

"Any gains?" Wu Jian asked curiously.

Mu Feng smiled: "The gains are not bad."

"Tomorrow there will be some Fobao up for auction; I plan to go take a look."

As they were chatting, Murong Ying suddenly flashed a mysterious smile and gave Wu Jian a glance.

"Hehe, Mu Feng bro, how about we make plans to explore together tomorrow?"

"I heard there's a desired item that will be auctioned tomorrow." Mu Feng invited.

Wu Jian nodded: "Sure!"

"Since you all came to the auction, you might as well help me find a desired item."

Murong Ying furrowed her brows slightly: "Wu Jian, it's already rare for us to gather like this."

"If you have other matters, why would you still come with us to the auction house?"

Wu Jian turned his head sideways and softly told Murong Ying: "I want to know if they have any clues about the Demonic Dao."

A cold glint flashed in Murong Ying's eyes as she said in a low voice: "I understand."

"You go with them, and I'll find an opportunity to be alone with you."

Wu Jian nodded, smiling and bowed his hands in farewell to Murong Ying.

The morning of the second day, Starlight Hall was already packed.

Experts, alchemists, and cultivators from all over gathered here, waiting for the auction to begin. (End of chapter)
