Chapter 132:
More than three hours later.
"Everyone!"
A clear voice spread in an instant, echoing throughout the auction hall, and the vast auction hall suddenly became quiet.
Yang Wu looked towards the center of the auction hall.
A bald old man with a black tortoise shell on his back appeared in the center of the auction hall. Above him, a "virtual projection" of the bald old man appeared, nearly a thousand meters high.
"Everyone is welcome to participate in this year's Qianwu Auction. Thank you to the Virtual Universe Company, the First Universe Bank, the Universe Galaxy Bank, the Giant Axe Fighting Arena, the Universe Mercenary Alliance, and the Qianwu Universe Country for their strong support."
The bald old man smiled and said, "The number of participants in this auction has reached an astonishing 1,316,039. Thank you again for your enthusiastic support! I believe that most of you here know me. I am Old Barto. This top event will still be hosted by me, Old Barto!"
"Let's not waste any more time. According to the old rules, before the auction officially starts, we will have an auction to warm up the crowd."
After saying that, the bald old man pointed to the side, and a huge screen immediately appeared next to him. An exquisite ring appeared on the screen, and next to the ring was a liquid as clear as water, which emitted a faint chill.
"This is the Rock Divine Water with a volume of 100,000 cubic meters, stored in a small space ring!"
"Locke's Divine Water is named after the super-being 'Locke' among our human race in the infinitely ancient times. It possesses an incredibly amazing life force and can be used to cultivate plant life and to heal the body."
"In short, anyone who can absorb life force can use this Rock Divine Water. The level of life energy contained in the Rock Divine Water is extremely high, even more powerful than the Fruit of Life. Even for immortal-level plant life, it has an extremely amazing effect."
"Locke Divine Water is extremely valuable and extremely difficult to collect. This Locke Divine Water has caused the deaths of countless strong men, so it is extremely precious."
"Now, everyone, start bidding." The bald old man, Lao Barto, shouted loudly, "One hundred thousand cubic meters of Rock Holy Water, the base price is 200 Hunyuan Units, and each bid must be an integer multiple of Hunyuan Units."
Before the bald old man finished speaking, a line of numbers appeared on the big screen next to him - "500 Hunyuan Units".
Obviously, there was an extremely wealthy person who planned to get the first portion of Locke Divine Water in one fell swoop.
But perhaps this Locke Divine Water was really too precious, and the offer of 500 Hunyuan units did not scare away others.
Other strong men also began to make their own offers.
"550 Hunyuan units!" "600 Hunyuan units!"
The price of Rock Divine Water is skyrocketing.
"It's a pity that this Locke Divine Water is not sold separately, otherwise I can also auction some. In this way, the probability of my auxiliary plant life breaking through to the realm master level will be much greater!"
At this time, a realm master-level strongman sitting on the huge throne in front of Yang Wu's left said regretfully.
"Yes!" The companion next to the Realm Master nodded and agreed: "If this 100,000 cubic meters of Rock Divine Water is divided into hundreds of portions, then maybe we can afford it!"
"You think too much!" said another strong man beside the two of them, "This Rock Divine Water has an evolutionary effect even on immortal-level plant life. It is simply not something that we realm masters can auction!"
"I have participated in this Qianwu auction tens of thousands of times, and have seen the Rock Divine Water thousands of times, but I have never seen a volume less than 10,000 cubic meters!"
…
"Locke's Divine Water?"
The appearance of this auction item suddenly reminded Yang Wu of a plot in the original novel.
When Luo Feng was sent to Qianwu Universe as a special supervisory envoy at the Domain Lord level, he met a big slave trader, Pansy, when he was completing the highest score mission.
Pan Xi seemed to have an astonishing amount of Rock Divine Water in his hands. He even used the Rock Divine Water to cultivate two ninth-level Realm Lord plant lives.
Then can Yang Wu plan to attack the opponent in advance?
However, Yang Wu quickly dismissed this idea.
Pansy has the assistance of two ninth-level realm master plant lives. If he wants to defeat the opponent successfully, he needs at least the help of an immortal god.
However, with Yang Wu's current strength and status, he could not invite the immortal gods at all. Even if he really did, it would be difficult for Yang Wu to obtain Pan Xi's spoils.
Therefore, it would be better to let the Locke Divine Water stay with Pansy for a while, and then take action when you are strong enough.
While Yang Wu was thinking, the auction of the Locke Divine Water was nearing its end.
The numbers on the big screen next to the bald old man began to rise more slowly.
832...841...845...
In the end, everyone's bid settled on 851 Hunyuan units.
"851 Hunyuan units, countdown to three seconds, 3, 2, 1... Congratulations to guest number KBD69496 for receiving this 100,000 cubic meter bottle of Rock Divine Water."
"The warm-up is over." The bald old man, Lao Barto, spoke in a resounding voice: "Now, this year's Qianwu Auction officially begins!"
The sound was rumbling, like that of a god.
The entire center of the auction hall suddenly became dazzling, and the powerful people sitting on the huge seats around it also became excited.
"The first batch of items will be auctioned now. On the auction token, everyone can see the 1,000 items that will be auctioned soon. Please be prepared if you are interested in buying."
The bald old man shouted loudly: "Now let's go to the first item - the special fruit 'Kiwi' that can be used to lay the foundation for plant life. This is a very magical fruit. Its effect is very gentle. It can lay the foundation for most plant life seedlings, allowing your auxiliary plant life to have a higher growth potential in the seedling stage!"
"Special fruit 'Kiwi', 81 in total, reserve price is 300 billion Universe Coins! The highest 81 bids will get the 'Kiwi' with magical effects."
As soon as old Barto finished speaking, many people in the auction hall began to bid.
The effect of 'Kiwi Fruit' is similar to the 'Qingluo Fruit' that Yang Wu bought previously, but the price is much lower.
Take the Mo Yun vine as an example. The same Mo Yun vine seedling may be sold for trillions of Universe Coins, hundreds of billions of Qianwu Coins, and some are only worth hundreds of billions of Black Dragon Coins.
This is because of the different reasons for the initial foundation and cultivation. The Moyun vine seedlings worth hundreds of billions of Black Dragon coins may only reach the top when cultivated to the universe level. However, the Moyun vine seedlings worth trillions of universe coins can easily reach the realm master level, and even have the opportunity to break through to the immortal level.
However, Yang Wu had already purchased the Qingluo Fruit, so naturally he would no longer be interested in this exotic fruit.
The auction items were sold out one after another like flowing water. Every item was snapped up by the crowd, and there was no possibility of it failing to be sold.
The lowest transaction price is as much as tens of billions of Universe Coins, and the auction price of ordinary commodities can reach hundreds of billions of Universe Coins.
Such a price was quite normal. After all, those who could participate in the auction had at least 10 trillion cosmic coins in their savings. It was normal to spend hundreds of billions to buy goods that one could not normally buy.
…
"The Lan Ke Fruit is one of the best items for nurturing spirit beasts and plant life. Even if you are seriously injured, taking the Lan Ke Fruit will have some healing effect."
"100 Lan Ke fruits count as one unit. There are 37 units of Lan Ke fruits here in total. The minimum bid for each unit is 100 billion universe coins."
When Yang Wu saw the Lan Ke Fruit appear at the auction, his eyes lit up.
Although he purchased two units of Lan Ke Fruit through the First Bank of the Universe, the price at the auction might be cheaper.
Sure enough, after a while, the price of Lan Ke Fruit stopped at around 180 billion, which was much more cost-effective than Yang Wu spending 200 billion universe coins to buy it through the First Bank of the Universe.
Therefore, Yang Wu directly used the black token to bid between 182 billion and 185 billion and bought five units of Lan Ke Fruit.
Each auction item is dazzling, and any one of them can cause domain lord-level powerhouses to fight for it fiercely.
Suddenly——
A Force weapon appeared on the huge screen next to the old man with the tortoise shell. It was a fiery red spear with an extremely simple shape. Just by seeing the shadow of the spear, everyone felt a sense of domineering power coming towards them.
But the moment Yang Wu saw the spear, he suddenly felt a sense of familiarity.
"The next auction item is the Overlord Spear, known as the warrior's divine weapon!"
"The Overlord Spear is one of the warriors' divine weapons, created by a supreme warrior who combined the two fundamental laws of 'flame' and 'space' with the supreme spear technique. I think everyone is very clear about its power."
"Many warriors at the peak of the realm master level always have to constantly replace their force weapons with better ones after they comprehend the origin law and break through. But if you have this Overlord Spear, you don't have to worry about this anymore!"
"The Overlord Spear has nine forms in total. You don't have to worry about it not being powerful enough. You just have to worry about your inability to wield it!"
"If someone can display the ninth level, it will be enough to travel across the boundless universe. Not only in the major cosmic nations of our human race, but also in other mechanical races, demon races, and even among the giant beasts of the starry sky, you will have a hard time finding an opponent!"
The bald old man said loudly: "Okay, now start bidding. There are eight Overlord Spears in total. The eight highest bids will get this treasure. The reserve price is 500 billion universe coins!"
"The warrior's magic weapon? Overlord Spear?"
Yang Wu looked at the shadow of the force weapon displayed on the huge screen next to the old man in confusion, and then clicked on the detailed introduction of the Overlord Spear on the black token in his hand.
He knew very well that for a long time in the future, Luo Feng would be using the 'Nine-Layered Hun Tian Yan', one of the nine divine weapons.
But Yang Wu had never heard of the magical weapon of a warrior.
After reading the introduction, combined with Chi Yan's introduction in his mind, Yang Wu finally understood what a warrior's magic weapon was.
