Cursed Immortality

Chapter 990: Star Auction Virtual House! (6)

The masked woman in golden robes with spiral eyes impassively stared at the bidding between the Life Faction, she muttered with a hint of resolved, ”I must have this map, even if it turns out to be a disappointment, but if there is even a sliver of chance that the Yang Flame do exist, then I can directly sacrifice it to my lord, and it’ll be sufficient to let me cross to the Upper Plains...”

A hint of zeal surfaced in her eyes as she commanded...

The next moment, her bid instantly surfaced in front of everyone.

”Bid increased: 500,000 Star Crystals (Legendary King Rank) by [Pontiff of Holy Justice]”

”Heh, that mad woman deserved her reputation.” A strange humanoid enshrouded in black mist sneered, ”Holy King, you’re not the only one who is thinking about using the Yang Flame to force the Upper Plains to pave a path to ascension. At least, no one will be willing to give up on this chance since the incident of the Path of Legend...” He also added his bid.

”Bid increased: 1,000,000 Star Crystals (Legendary King Rank) by [Blackened Prince]”

In another star seat, A woman with marine features and bewitching beauty scoffed, ”So, even the Prince of Dark Kingdom has shown himself. I guess, the federation can’t stay hidden, or everyone starts to belittle us as the weakest link to the neutral faction.”

”Bid increased: 1,500,000 Star Crystals (Legendary King Rank) by [Queen of Starry Ocean]”

At this moment, two out of three absolute factions’ top leaders have shown themselves in their own unique way. But one thing was clear: no one was willing to come between them because they didn’t have the capital to go against those factions.

Everyone knew that the primary focus of today’s auction was item no.29, despite it not being the final item of this auction. Furthermore, whoever acquired this map will have absolute control over it, and once an absolute faction has it, they can demand any price to share that information with others.

Hiding and keeping this information to themselves wasn’t an option because the allure of the Yang Flame was simply too high for a peak legendary king; whether it was because they wanted to become a Quasi-myth or ascend, they would fight for it to no end.

That’s why keeping this information to oneself was painting a huge target on their heads, and even an entire faction won’t be able to handle the full force of an unknown number of zealous Legendary Kings.

But they can still profit from this information and get a head start. This much was acceptable. That’s why those factions were bidding with everything they had to make more profits and get a head start.

However, plans often didn’t go as planned, especially not in the case of a treasure like the Yang Flames.

”Bid increased: 1,550,000 Star Crystals (Legendary King Rank) by [Follower of the Blood One91]”

”Tsk, tsk, those vampires really have the guts to swagger like this.” The devilishly handsome elf, the Wise King, his eyes flashed with killing intent as he didn’t need to guess much about the identity of this bidder.

This was a traitor among the living being planted by the vampire race, and it wasn’t the first time they had done something like this. In fact, the Ghost and Fiend Races have done the same thing in the past.

But nowadays, only the Vampires remain intact while the Fiends were almost annihilated, and the Ghost Race isn’t as strong as it used to be, so the Vampires have become the top representatives of the Dead Faction.

Furthermore, the Yang Flame was also very useful for the Vampires because of their innate traits and aspects. Not to mention, the Dead Faction can’t stay still while the two other factions show off their powers.

”Bid increased: 2,000,000 Star Crystals (Legendary King Rank) by [Golden Wiseman]”

”Bid increased: 2,100,000 Star Crystals (Legendary King Rank) by [Queen of Starry Ocean]”

”Bid increased: 2,200,000 Star Crystals (Legendary King Rank) by [Pontiff of Holy Justice]”

”Bid increased: 2,350,000 Star Crystals (Legendary King Rank) by [Witch of Songs]”

”Bid increased: 2,500,000 Star Crystals (Legendary King Rank) by [Blackened Prince]”

”Bid increased: 3,000,000 Star Crystals (Legendary King Rank) by [Anonymous8473948028]”

”Heh, the vultures are here...” The Giant War King sneered with disdain as he knew those hidden experts and powers were finally going to participate.

”Bid increased: 3,100,000 Star Crystals (Legendary King Rank) by [Giant Warrior of War]”

”Bid increased: 3,150,000 Star Crystals (Legendary King Rank) by [Anonymous...]”

”Bid increased: 3,160,000 Star Crystals (Legendary King Rank) by [Anonymous...]”

”Bid increased: 3,500,000 Star Crystals (Legendary King Rank) by [Follower of the Blood One91]”

The bidding war became extremely intense as the price continued to rise higher and higher, with those watching holding their breath amid the silent yet fierce competition among the wealthiest people of the Legendary Plains.

However, the timer of 300 seconds continued to dwindle, and many of those hidden powers slowly gave up as the price range was getting out of hand.

After all, a million legendary king rank star crystals were enough to raise a massive middle-grade power in the legendary plains.

But even those hidden powers couldn’t match the wealth of the three absolute factions because they have deep pockets, due to the number of elemental planets and elemental galaxies they control.

When the timer reached 20 seconds, the three absolute factions were still fighting, but the increase in price was finally slowed down when it crossed the threshold of 5 million.

This map might be the most expensive map of the legendary plains, even the previously appeared legendary king rank soul artifacts were only sold at around this price as well.

When only 10 seconds were left, the bid standing at the top was...

”Bid increased: 5,221,000 Star Crystals (Legendary King Rank) by [Golden Wiseman]”

The Wise King smiled faintly with a hint of relief when no other bids were announced, ”These madmen simply don’t know when to give up! Did they think they could rival the coffers of the Universal Zodiac Bank? Foolish! I’ll make every star crystal I spend here back and will make even huge profits, just you all wait...”

Suddenly, his celebration interrupted a new bid, making him almost bite his tongue...

”Bid increased: 6,000,000 Star Crystals (Legendary King Rank) by [Anonymous483934029]”
