Chapter 1662 Rare Items at the Multiverse Auction
"This Multiverse Auction has gathered the essence of all realms, with countless rare treasures, some of which I have never even seen before. Elder Zhang, if you have any needs, please feel free to bid. However, the competition will be far fiercer than you can imagine. Especially... those last few items that will be the highlight," the Star Lord warned.
"Thank you for the reminder, senior. I understand," Zhang Xuan replied solemnly.
Just then, in the center of the Starry Sky Hall, at the core of the most dazzling star field, endless starlight converged and transformed into a colossal gate of light that reached the heavens and the earth.
From within the portal, an elderly man with a profound aura slowly emerged.
The moment he appeared, all the powerful figures focused their attention on him.
Master Wanbao! The host of this Myriad Realms Auction!
However, the Wanbao Zhenren at this moment was completely different from the shrewd old man that Zhang Xuan usually saw.
His expression was solemn, and his body was filled with a vast Daoist aura that blended seamlessly with the entire Starry Sky Palace, revealing that he was a cultivator at the late stage of the Mahayana realm!
Clearly, in presiding over such a grand event, he displayed the supreme authority befitting an elder of the Wanxiang Business Alliance.
"Fellow Daoists, welcome to the Myriad Realms Auction held once every 30,000 years by the Myriad Realms Merchant Alliance." Master Wanbao's voice was calm, yet it resounded clearly in every starlight-filled private room.
"As usual, the highest bidder wins. Spirit stones, equivalent rare treasures, or even barter are all acceptable, with the Merchant Alliance determining the value. If there are personal grievances, leave the venue and settle them yourself. Do not disrupt the auction order. Violators will be expelled!"
A simple opening, yet imbued with undeniable rules and power.
No one raised any objection after he finished speaking.
"In that case, let the auction begin!" Master Wanbao said no more, and waved his sleeve.
The very first item auctioned caused quite a stir.
A fist-sized, azure-blue crystal floated up.
A pure and refined stellar power spread out, captivating all cultivators who practiced the Dao of Stars.
“The Primordial Star Core,” Master Wanbao explained, “is taken from the core of an ancient star field on the verge of extinction. It contains the most primordial principles of the birth and death of stars, and has incredible uses for cultivating star-based techniques, refining the origin of star power, and even comprehending the laws of birth and death. Starting bid: 30 million yuan stones, or equivalent items.”
As soon as he finished speaking, the lights of the bidding burst into the sky from several private rooms.
The most intense battles took place in the boxes of Ziwei Divine Realm and Beidou Divine Realm.
Ultimately, this fragment of the ancient star core was auctioned off to a Mahayana cultivator from the Ziwei Divine Realm for a sky-high price: a primordial spiritual artifact containing imperial purple energy plus ten million yuan stones.
Although Zhang Xuan did not make a move, he was still in awe.
This is just the appetizer, and the price is already astonishing.
The following items were increasingly precious and rare, constantly refreshing Zhang Xuan's understanding and allowing him to truly witness what the essence of all realms was.
A section of the million-year-old Soul-Nourishing Immortal Wood, its entire body shimmering with dark light, exudes a powerful soul force that nourishes the soul. It can even assist cultivators in cultivating their second primordial spirit, and has miraculous effects on Mahayana cultivators in replenishing their soul's origin and resisting inner demons.
It was eventually bought by an eighth-level ghost cultivator for a huge amount of soul crystals.
A solidified fragment of the river of time, with light and shadow flowing within, sealing a memory of enlightenment from a true immortal. The holder can experience this memory of the true immortal as if they were there, and may even glimpse some secrets.
Ultimately, it was exchanged by a cultivator from the Great Thousand Divine Realm for a World Origin Pearl that contained a complete small world evolving within it.
A pair of Yin-Yang Datura plants, one black and one white, each containing the fundamental laws of ultimate Yin and ultimate Yang, and reaching the eighth level!
This flower is an unparalleled treasure for cultivators who practice the Great Dao of Yin and Yang, life and death.
Xuan Kong Daojun and two other Mahayana cultivators fiercely competed for the flower, ultimately paying a huge price to acquire it.
A fragment of the "Burial of the Sword" manual, obtained from a remote and ancient secret realm, is incomplete, but it contains a terrifying sword intent that can annihilate everything, making all sword cultivators' hearts flutter.
Zhang Xuan's sword domain origin Dao fruit trembled slightly, but after weighing the options, he did not make a move. In the end, it was taken away by a Mahayana sword cultivator from the Big Dipper Divine Domain.
.........
The photo shoot proceeded smoothly.
Various rare and exotic treasures that only appeared in legends appeared one after another. Many of them were unheard of even by Zhang Xuan. Their effects were mysterious and involved profound laws, which broadened his horizons.
Throughout the auction, the sounds of bidding rose and fell.
Powerful beings from different divine realms and races lavishly spend astonishing resources for what they desire.
Zhang Xuan was not a bystander throughout the entire process.
During this period, he also made several bids and acquired a few treasures that would be useful to him.
A piece of eighth-order Void Star Essence the size of a human head. This item is one of the supreme divine materials for refining spatial magic treasures. It also contains pure spatial origin Daoist rhyme, which is of great benefit to his understanding of spatial side branches and strengthening of spatial supernatural powers.
There is also a secret method that can refine the body of a true immortal into a puppet.
Zhang Xuan guessed that it must have been commissioned by the Star Lord of the Heavenly Star Divine Realm.
He happened to possess a complete immortal body obtained from a secret realm in the Classic of Mountains and Seas.
Later on, we could try out this kind of puppet technique.
Time slipped away amidst the dazzling bidding war.
One after another, rare treasures worthy of being considered the guardians of the divine realm were auctioned off, and the atmosphere in the venue remained both enthusiastic and tense.
However, the Dao Source Treasure that Zhang Xuan was most concerned about, and that the vast majority of beings in all the Supreme Boxes were waiting for, never appeared.
He knew that the most precious treasures that truly determined one's future path and that would drive even Mahayana cultivators to their utmost efforts would only appear as the grand finale, at the very end.
As yet another eighth-grade spiritual material was sold, Master Wanbao paused slightly, his gaze sweeping across all the starlight private rooms.
Especially those in the most dazzling VIP boxes, a deep smile appeared on their faces.
"Fellow Daoists, what follows is the grand finale of this Myriad Realms Auction..."
The grand finale is about to begin!
Zhang Xuan was so excited he almost stood up.
We've waited three hundred years, haven't we been waiting for this moment?
The first and most important item was not a rare artifact from the Dao source, but a wisp of primordial pure energy!
This energy exudes the primordial Daoist charm of the beginning of creation, before all things were born.
"In the beginning of the primordial chaos, there was innate pure energy." Master Wanbao's voice carried a hint of solemnity. "This energy was collected by a fellow Daoist at a border stronghold of the Divine Realm, risking death and the annihilation of his Dao. It contains the most primordial power of creation, which can refine one's Dao foundation, purify one's magical power, and make up for deficiencies in one's origin. It will be of incredible help in breaking through the bottlenecks of the mid-stage and even late-stage Mahayana realms. Starting bid: 200 million stones, or the equivalent of innate items."
As soon as the words were spoken, the light of the bidding exploded and shot into the sky from several private rooms!
Ultimately, this wisp of primordial pure energy was exchanged for three chaotic primordial stones of varying sizes and an ancient jade book by the mysterious Mahayana cultivator of the Hongmeng Divine Realm who was always shrouded in chaos.
The high transaction price caused many Mahayana practitioners who were unable to fulfill their wishes to sigh in secret.
