Abyss Walker

Chapter 222 Auction (Part )

"It seems our dragon crystal will cause a storm," Dugu Jianling said in a low voice, his eyes fixed on the dragon crystal on the auction stage.

Yun Muhan nodded, his fingers tapping lightly on the armrest of the chair as he silently calculated the potential income: "Yes, this will bring us a great fortune, enough for us to buy the Netherworld Flower and the Bone-Melting Soul-Severing Grass."

The Netherworld Flower and the Bone-Melting and Soul-Severing Grass were Yun Muhan's two objectives on this trip. The Netherworld Flower was a special refining material, while the Bone-Melting and Soul-Severing Grass was a key ingredient in the refining of a certain poison. Both of these medicinal herbs were extremely rare in Zhongzhou, and their prices were naturally exorbitant.

"160,000! Brother, you're still too young."

The bidding for Dragon Crystal has entered a fierce stage.

"170,000! Brother Yan, are you really going to go against me for a single dragon crystal?"

"180,000! Brother, you can't do it."

"Fellow Daoists, can't you give me some face? 188,000!"

Yun Muhan and Dugu Jianling exchanged a glance, both seeing the satisfaction in each other's eyes. They knew that this price had far exceeded their expectations.

"190,000! I respect you and call you Brother Yan. If you don't give me face, you're nothing but rubbish."

"Two hundred thousand! Let the two kids go home and farm."

"Two hundred thousand for the first time... two hundred thousand for the second time... two hundred thousand for the third time, two hundred thousand sold."

Ultimately, the dragon crystal sold for a staggering 200,000 gold coins, equivalent to 20 amethyst crystals. This price was extremely rare in the auction history of Zhongzhou. Yun Muhan and Dugu Jianling secretly rejoiced; their plan was already halfway to success.

With the auction for the Dragon Crystal concluded, the auction continued. Yun Muhan and Dugu Jianling began to focus on the items they truly needed.

When the Netherworld Flower was displayed, Yun Muhan immediately raised his bidding paddle. "Ten thousand gold coins!"

"Ten thousand one hundred."

"Ten thousand one hundred and one. Brother Yan, are you satisfied?"

"Twenty thousand! Brother, I told you you're no good, you're no good."

Yun Muhan: You little brat, you're deliberately trying to inflate my price, aren't you? I'll crush you all as soon as the auction is over.

"Twenty thousand one hundred".

"Twenty thousand one hundred and one."

"Twenty-four thousand. Any higher and it's not worth it, bro."

"Twenty-five thousand."

Yun Muhan raised his bidding paddle again. "Thirty thousand!"

Next up was the auction for the Bone-Melting and Soul-Severing Grass. Competition for this herb was equally fierce, but Yun Muhan and Dugu Jianling already had ample funds.

After a fierce bidding war, they won the Bone-Melting and Soul-Severing Grass for 25,000 gold coins.

Dugu Jianling: I bought two herbs for 55,000? What a rip-off.

The host announced, "Next up is the last item in the auction—the Longquan sword."

"The Longquan Sword, a treasure!"

"These are ours, no one is allowed to take them. Anyone who dares to take them is going against Young Master Yan." The servant was instantly kicked out of the auction house.

"Starting bid is 10,000 gold coins, no requirements, highest bidder wins."

"Ten thousand one hundred. Brother Yan, go ahead and bid if you dare!" the young man said arrogantly.

"Twenty thousand!" The other boy ignored it completely.

"Twenty thousand one hundred".

"My two young friends, please heed my words and leave. I will pretend nothing happened," the man who had won the bid for the dragon crystal finally spoke.

"Who do you think you are, to presume to tell me what to do? Twenty thousand one hundred and one."

"Twenty-five thousand. You old fool, you still dare to call yourself 'this one'? Shameless."

"Twenty-five hundred and one, you old bastard, go ahead and kill me if you dare!"

"Fellow Daoists, please give me some face, 100,000 gold coins!"

"Two hundred thousand gold coins! I'll remember you two. Just you wait."

After the auction, Yun Muhan and Dugu Jianling left Tianbao Pavilion with the items they had won. Yun Muhan was filled with a sense of accomplishment, and his eyes sparkled with plans and expectations for the future.

The successful auction of the dragon crystal not only brought him enormous wealth but also granted him the medicinal herbs he had long coveted. These herbs were crucial to their plans and would greatly advance their subsequent cultivation and exploration.

Dugu Jianling looked like he'd been ripped off. Although he felt bad about the gold coins he'd spent, he understood the importance of these investments to their long-term goals.

As night fell, the two walked back to their hotel, their hearts filled with anticipation for the future. The streetlights gradually came on, illuminating their path.

Yun Muhan and Dugu Jianling's shadows stretched long under the lights, their steps firm and powerful, each one exuding confidence.

They discussed today's harvest and how these medicinal herbs would help them enhance their strength and achieve their goals.

Yun Muhan was filled with gratitude. He knew that without Dugu Jianling's support and help, he could not have achieved what he had today. Their friendship and trust were their most precious treasures.

Although Dugu Jianling was somewhat reserved about the expenditure, he had full confidence in Yun Muhan's decision. He trusted Yun Muhan's judgment and knew that these investments would bring them substantial returns.

Their eyes revealed boundless hope for the future; they knew that as long as they were united, nothing was impossible.

A night breeze brought a touch of coolness, but their hearts burned with passion.
