The System Arrives: Leading My Clan to Become the Strongest

77: Chapter 77 Price of 800,000 Low-Grade Spirit StonesSeeing this, Mu Yao understood that the person in the earth character box number ten had given up.

Mu Yao no longer hesitated; her voice rose slightly, clearly spreading throughout the entire auction venue:

”350,000 for the third time! Sold!”

Seeing that the Thousand Layer Overlapping Waves Palm was finally his, the Man in Tight Clothes let out a sigh of relief and finally revealed a smile.

However, the look he cast toward the earth character box number ten was full of ill intent; if it hadn’t been for the other party raising the price, he wouldn’t have needed to shell out so many Spirit Stones.

As for the idea that the other party was someone he couldn’t afford to offend, the Man in Tight Clothes was dismissive; what kind of powerful figures could there be in this Qingyun Market? Aside from the Jiang Family, there was no one he couldn’t provoke.

”Next is the final auction item—the Tier 3 condensing gold pill. Its effects need no introduction. Starting price: 300,000 Low-Grade Spirit Stones, with each bid increase of no less than 10,000 Low-Grade Spirit Stones.”

As the Thousand Layer Overlapping Waves Palm was won by the Man in Tight Clothes, Mu Yao looked at everyone present and spoke.

”Uproar.”

As the three words ’condensing gold pill’ left Mu Yao’s mouth, the entire auction venue erupted in a clamor once again.

”condensing gold pill!”

These three words were like a massive boulder thrown into a calm lake, instantly stirring up waves of sound and heat that almost lifted the roof.

Compared to this, the commotion caused by the ”Thousand Layer Overlapping Waves Palm” earlier was like the difference between a small stream and a tsunami.

”My god! It really is a condensing gold pill! A precious pill that can increase the chances of forming a Golden Core. When they said there was a condensing gold pill as the finale at the start, I thought it was a lie. I didn’t expect it to be real!”

”Qingyun Pavilion really went all out this time. Such a Medicinal Pill... they aren’t using it themselves and are putting it up for auction instead?”

”Starting at 300,000... even if I sold myself, I couldn’t even scrape together the change! But seeing it with my own eyes makes it worth it!”

Shock, horror, ecstasy, greed, despair... all sorts of emotions permeated every corner of the auction venue.

Countless gazes converged on the auction stage like physical objects, wishing they could pierce through the jade box holding the Medicinal Pill.

Some Cultivators who were originally a bit drowsy now sat up straight as if struck by lightning, their breathing heavy.

From the VIP box area, several uncontrollable fluctuations of powerful auras emanated, revealing the intense emotional turmoil of their owners.

The smile on the face of the Man in Tight Clothes froze instantly as the words ’condensing gold pill’ were spoken, turning into deep shock and a hint of bitterness.

condensing gold pill!

This was the true finale treasure of the night. Compared to it, the Profound Rank Martial Skill he had just fought so hard for seemed... not quite as appealing.

He subconsciously touched his Storage Pouch; the remaining Spirit Stones inside probably didn’t even qualify for a single bid in front of the condensing gold pill.

His complex gaze swept across the other boxes, knowing that the upcoming struggle was completely unrelated to Loose Cultivators like him; those boxes that hadn’t bid yet were the main players today.

”350,000!”

After a brief dead silence, a raspy voice carrying unquestionable authority came from the Profound Character Box Number Five, skipping the trial bids and showing a determination to win at all costs.

”Hmph, you want to take the condensing gold pill for 350,000? Profound Character Number Seven, 400,000!”

Another clear and melodious female voice rang out, carrying a hint of cold arrogance.

The price was instantly pulled up to a level that made the vast majority of people suffocate.

”430,000!”

earth character box number five followed suit.

”450,000!”

earth character box number ten was also unwilling to be outdone.

The price climbed at an astonishing speed, each bid increase causing a low gasp from the audience.

The air was filled with a scorching sensation, as if Spirit Stones were burning.

Mu Yao stood on the auction stage, her pretty face slightly flushed with excitement. She could clearly sense that the auction house’s records would surely be broken tonight!

When the price soared to 550,000 Low-Grade Spirit Stones, the speed of bidding finally slowed down.

This number was enough to drain most of the liquid assets of a small Cultivate Family or Sect.

The bidding voices in the venue gradually thinned out, leaving only a few steady voices still in a standoff, each bid carrying the weight of a final, desperate gamble.

”560,000!”

The voice from Profound Character Box Number Five rang out again, with a hint of gritted-teeth ferocity, clearly at the end of its rope.

”570,000!”

The female voice from Profound Character Number Seven remained cold, yet it also faintly revealed a sense of tension.

This time, Profound Character Box Number Five went completely silent.

The entire venue was silent. Everyone’s eyes were focused on Profound Character Number Seven, waiting to see if anyone else dared to follow.

Just as Mu Yao was about to start the count, a voice suddenly floated out from the earth character box number ten. It was light, yet it exploded in everyone’s ears like a thunderclap:

”800,000.”

800,000!

This number was directly 230,000 Low-Grade Spirit Stones higher than the current price, ruthless and leaving no room for negotiation!

The entire venue instantly sucked in a breath of cold air, even their breathing stopped.

The aura from Profound Character Number Seven suddenly stalled, followed by a cold snort filled with anger, but ultimately, not another word was called—800,000 was a sky-high price she could not afford.

The many boxes of the mystic and yellow characters were completely silenced. Their previous determination to win had now turned into helplessness and shock.

Who would have thought that the person in the earth character box number ten would suddenly strike at this moment, and with a single move, it was a killing blow!

The Man in Tight Clothes stared dumbfounded at the direction of the earth character box number ten, his mouth wide enough to fit an egg. His previous dissatisfaction with the earth character box number ten had long since vanished.

He wasn’t a fool; he knew which people he could offend and which he couldn’t. The other party was an existence far beyond his reach; seeking trouble would simply be courting death.

Mu Yao was also slightly stunned, but she quickly snapped back to her senses, a flash of brilliant light in her eyes. She cleared her throat and raised her voice with unprecedented fervor:

”earth character box number ten, 800,000 Low-Grade Spirit Stones!”

”800,000 for the first time!”

Her voice pierced through the silence of the venue, clearly reaching everyone’s ears.

”800,000 for the second time!”

The roof of the auction venue seemed to vibrate with her voice. Those Cultivators who were previously in despair now had faces full of feverish excitement—being able to witness such a sky-high auction price was enough for them to brag about for ten years!

”Are there any higher bids?”

Mu Yao’s gaze swept across the venue, finally settling on the window frame of the earth character box number ten, which was half-closed, where a slender figure could be faintly seen.

No one answered.

800,000 was the Peak of tonight.

Mu Yao took a deep breath and raised the auction hammer in her hand. Its crisp sound echoed throughout the entire Qingyun Pavilion auction venue, carrying weight enough to be recorded in history:

”800,000 for the third time! Sold!”

Bang!

The hammer fell, sealing the deal.

In an instant, the entire venue erupted in deafening cheers and gasps, the sound waves almost lifting the roof.

Inside the heaven character box number one, Steward Wen Yiluo turned to look at the earth character box number ten, her beautiful eyes wide with disbelief: ”Do you know who the other party is?”
