Chapter 418 - din

He soon vanished behind that huge minor after riling up the entire audience.

Ace, on the other hand, frowned at this announcement. 'They move quite efficiently.'

Right at this moment, an extremely beautiful tan demoness with a charming smile emerged from behind the mirror.

Many young demons drooled when they saw the overdeveloped curves on her devilish body, even those big shots in the VIP stand couldn't help but gulped.

However, no one dared to belittle that demoness despite her beautiful and delicate appearance because of the three golden stars and three green stars on her shoulder. She was just one step away from a Life Master rank!

She opened her cheery lips as her charming voice rang through the entire arena, "Ladies and Gentlemen, Welcome to the Life Demon Auction!

I'm the hostess of this auction, Lilly!"

"Without any further ado, let me explain the rules to everyone.

"As everyone knows there are millions of demons attending this auction this time, we have collected many treasures for everyone and that's why this auction will last for ten days at two hours intervals each day!

"So, to make it convenient for everyone to bid without any mishap, we have engraved a small bidding array in everyone's seats.

"You can assess it as long as you put your auction pass on the special embedded rune under your seat's left arm stand. You can place your bid through this array and they will then appear in this large display mirror behind me where everyone can see them.

"Once you successfully bid for an item, the Auction Attendants will come and collect the final amount and give you a special token in return, which you can use at the end of the auction to collect your items from the reception hall on each level.

"A friendly warning, if anyone bid and won the item but then found of insufficient dues, there will be dire consequences for such practice. So please bid carefully." Her friendly smile sent chills to everyone.

Thereupon, everyone quickly started to activate their arrays like Lilly just instructed them to.

"Hey, come here and tell me where this damn thing will go!"

Ace was looking at those runes with his runic eyes when a commanding voice rang from his row.

He looked in front and a young demon with average looks was waving his VIP pass at him.

"Right away." He had no choice since this was part of his duty and his fellow attendants were also helping some idiots to activate the arrays.

Lilly spoke again after giving everyone five minutes to activate the bidding arrays of their respective seats.

"Since everyone is ready, let's start the first day of this Life Demon Auction!"

With an enthralling smile, Lilly waved her hand and golden runes lit up in the center of the stage before a pillar rose.

The mirror behind suddenly projected the item on the pillar.

There was a closed white crystal box.

Lilly slowly moved toward it and opened the lid, revealing the item inside.

There were three pristine silver pills with brown circles around them.

Someone at the VIP level exclaimed, "Perfect Pills!"

This voice raised ripples through the entire arena.

Lilly spoke at this moment with a charming smile, "As everyone knows, there are four quality ranks of pills, Low, Intermediate, High, and Peak. Each rank represented the difference in pill purity rate. The higher the purity, the more effective the pill was.

"Low-Rank Pill had below 15% purity rate, Intermediate rank had below 40%, High rank had below 75%, and Peak rank pill had below 90%.

"However, there is an even higher rank than these four, the Perfect Rank which had over 90% purity rate, and these kinds of pills are only made with luck and vast experience."

Lilly's eyes shimmered as she spoke, "As everyone can see, these three pills are perfect rank Bone Strengthening Pills of Low-Grade-3. Each perfect rank bone strengthening pill can increase the bone strength of the River Realm Cultivator by 5% and 2% of the River Core Realm Expert!

"The starting bid for each Perfect Rank Bone Strengthening Pill is… 10,000 High Grade-2 Qi Stone and each bid minimum increase has to be 100 High Grade-2. The bid is open!"

Just as her voice trailed off, the numbers started to appear in the mirror, like raging tides, as the bid continue to increase.

"Which bastard raised the amount by 50,000?! Are Qi stones grow on trees?!" Someone in the open seat stands cursed with a fuming face.

"Fuck, even those guys at the VIP level got involved. How can we win this item for our juniors?!" Another poor soul howl from the open seat stands.

Everyone wanted to buy those pills for their juniors who were going to participate in the Demon Gate Trial.

After Ewan's announcement, everyone fought even more intensely for any item that could raise their juniors' chances of passing the trial.

However, when the bid crossed the 300,000 threshold, the demons in the open seat stands give up resentfully.

It was a huge amount for any marquis-level tribe, even duke level tribe will feel the pinch.

These were 300,000 High-Grade-2 Qi stones, not Grade-1, if converted to the peak grade-1 Qi stones, they would be 30,000,000!

Furthermore, the auction will only accept Qi stones of high-grade-2 or above levels, so many demons were forced to convert their low-quality Qi stones for high-level Qi stones at a high price!

"Three million going once…

"Three million going twice…

"Last chance to get a pill to raise the bloodline density?" She looked toward the VVIP rooms, "And three million going…"

At this moment, the number changed from 3 million to 3.01 million, and this bid came from a VVIP room.

Killing intent flashed past Aliya's eyes as she looked at Lilly's crafty smile.

'She better pray I don't get hold of her secrets!' She raised the bid directly to 4 million without batting an eye.

This time, those in the same stand as Aliya finally looked at her with shock. They had the same thoughts; who was this wealthy lady?

Inside VVIP room no.3,764, a young demon with a handsome appearance had a frown on his face when he looked at the bid on the screen.

"Which degenerate is bidding against this young master from those lowly tribes?!"

500 Bidding Wars (2)

This young man was an heir of the branch clan of a Wild Demon King tribe and they naturally received a VVIP pass from the Life Demon Association.

He was here to participate in the demon gate trial and he had his clan's full support to bid for another he wanted in this auction as long as it can raise his chances of passing the trial.

This bloodline pill was quite alluring to him since it could help him strengthen his abilities, but seeing the four million bid, he was hesitating.

However, when he thought how this bid was from a VIP stand not from a VVIP Room, he felt his dignity has been challenged.

He gritted his teeth and rise the bid by ten thousand.

'Let's see if these lowly tribes still dare to bid against me,' He sneered in rage.

However, his eyes turned bloodshot when he saw the same person raise the bid to 4.5 million directly!

"Bastard! Who is it?!" He really wanted to storm toward the VIP stand, but he knew he can't cause trouble here or he'll be kicked out.

Lilly looked at the bid and couldn't but smile brightly as she spoke, "The guest in seat no.18-87,900 bid 4.5 million Qi stones!

"4.5 million going once…

"4.5 million going twice…

"Last chance, everyone?" She smiled charmingly, but this time no one raise the bid, "And 4.5 million going… thrice and sold! Congratulation to the guest on seat no.18-87,900 for winning this wonderful Bloodline Pill. On to next item." Lilly didn't dwell on the Bloodline pill and quickly reveal the next item.

Aliya, on the other hand, snort as she paid the attendant and received a golden receipt with the unique number of the item she won. She can claim that item as long as she showed this receipt.

'What a resentful woman.' Ace also smile wryly on the nineteenth level since he knew Aliya's seat number.

The third item was finally revealed at this moment. It was another pill, but this item was completely transparent like fine ice, and small light blue circles were around this pill.

Lilly introduced with a charming smile, "This is a perfect quality soul pill, the high-grade-2 Instant Soul Recovery Pill. As long as the soul isn't destroyed, this pill can make a vast difference between life and death.

"It can instantly recover 50% soul injury of the River Realm, 20% of the River Core Realm, and… 5% of Soul Realm!"

The entire arena stirred after hearing the Instant Soul Recovery Pill's introduction, especially those Demon Dukes in the Soul Realm. This pill had a great temptation for them, even with a 5% recovery.

Because everyone knows, the soul of a soul realm expert was very hard to heal if injured, and this pill can make a tremendous difference with just five percent.

A content glint flashed past Lilly's eyes as she spoke, "The starting bid for this perfect Instant Soul Recovery Pill is… 50,000 High-Grade-2 Qi Stones and each bid has to increase by 1,000. The bid is open!"

Another bidding war started and this time more VVIP rooms take part since many well-known demon dukes were in these rooms.

The VIP stands didn't even bid because they knew those in the VVIP rooms had far more wealth than them and they can't win this pill even if they wanted it.

Lilly spoke when the bid stopped, "The guest in room no.328 bid five million Qi stones!"

However, just as she was about to start the count, another bid from a VVIP room appeared.

Lilly exclaimed, "The guest in room no.542 just bid 10 million Q stones!"ghost province. The writing in this book is extremely ancient and we don't have any records of this writing.

But the seller told us he had got this book under an ancient destroyed shrine. Although we don't know its value, the words of this book are still preserved completely even after being buried for god knows how long. We can guarantee that this book is authentic with no forgery."

Lilly continued, "This book might have great research value. That's why the seller wanted to sell it for peak grade-2 Qi stones. The starting bid is 10,000 peak grade-2 Qi stones, with a minimum raise limit of 100 peak grade-2 stones. The bid is open!"

Everyone looked doubtful at the book since even the life demon association can't translate this book. What can they do about it?

Furthermore, this item was sold by someone else through this auction, and not just any item can be sold here. The reputation of the Life Demon Association was on the line.

Despite that, peak-grade-2 Qi stones were just too precious, and no one was willing to waste them on this unknown book with unknown contents.

It was an enormous gamble no one was willing to take.

Right at this moment, a bid appeared on the screen.

However, it wasn't a seat no, nor a room no, it was…

Lilly's eyes flashed in surprise as she announced, "The Auction Attendant No.19-213 just made the first bid of 10,500 Qi stones!"
