Chapter 1129: Battlefield Hotpot!
"Hmm? What's this?"
"Don't know!"
"Since it's said to be a heaven-defying item, it must be extraordinary!"
...
Many guests who were already interested and excited by the Six Paths Divine Water were now filled with curiosity.
Soon, the curtain was lifted, revealing...
A large hotpot!
"???" Everyone was instantly puzzled.
This hotpot seemed to have gone through extraordinary experiences; there were many strange scars and damages on it.
However, these scars and damages faintly emitted an extremely eerie aura.
But the entire hotpot was sealed tightly by a huge sealing array beneath it, preventing its aura from leaking out.
As a result, many guests couldn't sense anything, so they turned their gazes towards Mu Xueying.
This hotpot, on the surface, appeared to be just an ordinary earth-grade item. How could it be called a heaven-defying item?
At this point, Mu Xueying once again revealed a shocking statement!
"This hotpot is indeed just an ordinary earth-grade item in itself! However, its true heaven-defying aspect lies in..."
"This hotpot has cooked the power of the Heavenly Dao! It has cooked the bodies of foreign domain evil gods! It has cooked the Seventh Tier Demon Lord of the lost era, and even cooked the Ghost Domain legendary sword saint, Ghost Name Yixin! And..." Mu Xueying explained in a clear and steady manner.
Everyone was dumbfounded.
"This is impossible!!!" An enraged Seventh Tier expert from the Demon Domain suddenly stood up and shouted.
Ghost Name Yixin was a legendary sword saint that existed in the Ghost Domain long before ancient times! The school he created, the Ghost Name Flowing Blade Technique, was still being passed down in the Ghost Domain, with countless successors and disciples, even growing stronger!
Countless small and big sword saints of the Ghost race had grown up listening to the legends of Ghost Name Yixin!
But now, Mu Xueying actually claimed that this hotpot...
Cooked the legends of their own Ghost race?
Wasn't this complete nonsense?
"Cooked the Heavenly Dao? Haha, that's an exaggeration! If it weren't for Mu's words, if it were someone else, this old man would have slapped them to death long ago!"
"Right, cooked the bodies of foreign domain evil gods? Is that possible?"
"Cooked the Demon Lord of the lost era? Does that mean this pot has existed for millions, even tens of millions of years? Is that possible? How could an ordinary earth-grade item last for such a long time?"
...
All the guests present were in shock and disbelief.
"Remove the array!" Mu Xueying didn't waste words and directly gave the order.
The next moment, as the array was removed.
The various auras on the hotpot spread out.
As the powerful beings present slightly sensed it, their expressions changed!
The aura of the Heavenly Dao...
The aura of the evil gods...
The aura of the Seventh Tier Demon Lord!
Even the Ghost Name Yixin's ghost aura...
Pure and authentic!
"How... how is this possible?"
"How did they achieve this? How could it be possible?"
"How can this hotpot cook the Heavenly Dao? This is simply impossible!"
...
Everyone was dumbfounded! Although they were muttering that it was impossible, the facts before them were slapping them in the face.
This hotpot...
Naturally, Mu Xueying had acquired it from players!
Not just this one, but a total of eighteen!
All of them were obtained from the gluttonous players when they were transported back to the ancient era!
After all, when facing the Heavenly Dao's Five Calamities during that time, it was only natural for the gluttonous players to feast on the remains of the Heavenly Dao's Five Calamities while fiercely fighting against them.
After the one hundred strands of Sukrad's will, the Demon God from the outside domain, were shattered, the body it had possessed, Chi Mo's physical body, was also cooked by these gluttonous players. There was nothing wrong with that.
Since both the Heavenly Dao and the evil gods had been cooked, then during the ultimate battle, the players who survived until the end naturally took the opportunity to cook Ghost Name Yixin and Demon Lord Mo Shitian together. This was also quite reasonable!
As for why there were scars and damages on the hotpot, it was naturally because...
This was a hotpot from the battlefield!
At that time, the gluttonous players were eating hotpot on the battlefield while fighting. It was reasonable for the hotpot to be hit by attacks accidentally!
"The Legendary Hotpot, starting price, one million Spirit Stones!" Mu Xueying didn't explain much. The matter of her family members, Chi Mo, and a group of Flame Phoenix Sect disciples arriving in the ancient era through the Bridge of Purgatory was too unbelievable, so she naturally wouldn't mention it.
Mu Xueying only assured that everything she said was true, as for how it happened, let these guests guess for themselves!
"One hundred million!"
"Two hundred million!"
"Three hundred million!"
...
For such a heaven-defying hotpot, the bidding price naturally soared to an astonishing level!
This hotpot wasn't of much use to most low-level cultivators. After all, the volatile and unpredictable auras of the Heavenly Dao and the evil gods might not even be perceptible by low-level cultivators.
But for high-level experts, it was different!
"One billion!"
"Two billion!"
"Two billion five hundred million..."
...
The prices escalated rapidly, and in the blink of an eye, they were close to three billion!
However, just at this moment...
"Five billion Spirit Stones!!!" The Seventh Tier expert from the Demon Domain who had previously questioned suddenly stood up, shouting in a stern voice!
"!" Everyone was dumbfounded.
This price was too heaven-defying, wasn't it?
"Ghost Name Yixin is a legend of our Ghost race. Regardless of whether it's true or false, this hotpot with the aura of Ghost Name Yixin must be obtained by our Ghost race!" This Seventh Tier expert from the Ghost Domain spoke coldly.
His gaze shifted, carrying a hint of killing intent and determination!
"Six billion!" However, someone still chose to bid!
This Seventh Tier Ghost Domain expert didn't back down at all and continued to bid!
".｀ Seven billion!"
"Eight billion!"
"Ten billion!!!"
...
When the price reached ten billion, no one else placed a bid.
Although many high-level experts wanted to contend for it, the price was simply too high, so they fell into silence.
However, just as this Seventh Tier Ghost Domain expert was starting to show a proud and satisfied expression, Mu Xueying spoke up once again.
"Now that the first one is sold, let's move on to the second!" Mu Xueying waved her hand, and the second hotpot was brought out.
"Pfft!" This Seventh Tier expert from the Ghost Domain almost choked!
For heaven's sake, he had just barely secured the hotpot with ten billion Spirit Stones!
And now...
You're telling me there's a second one?
One by one, the hotpots were continuously auctioned off at sky-high prices. A total of eighteen were auctioned, and the amount of Spirit Stones transacted had reached an astonishing number!
"Just with these eighteen hotpots, the net income of our
Starfall Auction House for a year has been surpassed!"
"My goodness! Mu Xueying seems to have spent not a single Spirit Stone. She simply arranged for artisans to prepare eighteen new, high-quality pots and obtained all these hotpots from the Flame Phoenix Sect... Back then, the disciples of the Flame Phoenix Sect said something about not bothering to clean the pots and just buying new ones to profit from it..."
"A single hotpot is actually selling for ten billion Spirit Stones... If I can witness this in my lifetime, I can die without regrets!"
...
Many people from the Starfall Auction House were left speechless at the sight of this scene.
If it were before, when Mu Xueying proposed that the Starfall Auction House should fully assist the Flame Phoenix Sect, many assumed it was to repay the favor of Heping Ming by refining the Three Essence Infant Pill to resurrect the three ancestors of the Mu family!
But now...
Through the cooperation with the Flame Phoenix Sect, the Starfall Auction House was making a fortune!
"The third item in our collection is even more precious! And, dear guests, please rest assured, there is only one of this item! So everyone can bid with confidence!" Mu Xueying smiled faintly and commanded the third auction item to be brought out.
"How impressive!"
"What is this?"
"What exactly is this item?"
...
As a colossal object was brought out, many of the people present were utterly amazed.
