Chapter 207: Bidding For The Purple Sun Fruit
The twelve Purple Sun Fruits were finally sold at a high price of seven hundred naturae coins. The successful bidders, of course, were Tang San and his master Zhang Haoxuan.
Without the fifty percent discount, they would have spent all their money by now. But with the discount applied to the Purple Sun Fruits, they still had over three hundred naturae coins left.
Tang San smiled faintly, knowing that Purple Sun Fruits were excellent for enhancing spiritual power and nurturing the sea of consciousness. Not only could they be used by Du Bai to enhance his spiritual power and potentially help him advance to the fifth order, but Wu Bingji, Gu Li, and Cheng Zicheng also had needs in this area—especially Gu Li, whose Chrono Croc Transformation required a boost in spiritual power.
Not long ago, Tang San had imparted the Purple Demon Eyes to them as well, and they were working hard, though their progress was far behind Du Bai\'s. With the help of the Purple Sun Fruits, they could at least advance their Purple Demon Eyes to the first stage and enhance and stabilize their spiritual power. The money was well spent. Their improvement was also Tang San\'s improvement. After all, except for Wu Bingji, the others hadn\'t surpassed the fifth order.
Tang San did not bid for any of the subsequent items. Although they still had over three hundred naturae coins left, it wasn\'t enough to purchase those precious natural treasures. Besides, Tang San planned to save money to buy some other items and materials that he needed.
With the improvement of his cultivation level, Tang San could do more and more things. And as he grew to understand this world better, he had a more complete plan for his future. It was unrealistic to expect his strength to reach the level where he could contend with god-level powerhouses in the short term. Therefore, he needed to improve himself quickly and possess stronger combat capabilities before his cultivation level increased. At the very least, he needed the ability to face ninth-order demons.
The auction was intense, featuring many excellent natural treasures, some of which were unavailable even in the Kali Academy store. But the prices were astonishingly high, leaving Tang San and Zhang Haoxuan as mere spectators.
For example, a fruit called the Ascension Fruit made Zhang Haoxuan\'s eyes turn somewhat red. It was used for breaking through to the god level. The breakthrough greatly enhanced the understanding of the world and caused the bloodline energy to overflow, significantly increasing the chances of breaking through.
The final price for this item was ten thousand naturae coins. At this price, Tang San and his master could only watch.
With the auction of the Ascension Fruit, the bidding entered its real climax. The final three items auctioned were something new to Tang San—three bloodline samples!
The blood auction was a unique practice of the Empyrean Dominion. It was well known that besides continual cultivation, the simplest method to enhance one\'s bloodline strength was to absorb and refine the blood of a higher-order member of the same clan, or a higher-tier member of the same race. This process would cause one\'s bloodline energy to overflow, pushing it to higher levels and even possibly improving the bloodline\'s tier itself.
The three bloodline samples auctioned this time included two golden bloodlines and one... even higher than golden!
Only bloodlines that produced a Demon Emperor could be classified above the golden level, so they were naturally incredibly rare.
The appearance of these three bloodlines caused an uproar. The bidding became so intense that the powerful beings in the private rooms almost came to blows. It wasn\'t until a cold snort echoed through the room, intimidating everyone, that the situation calmed down and the auction could proceed.
The first golden bloodline auctioned was one Tang San was actually familiar with. It was the bloodline of the Golden Lion Dog, Song Junhou—the Golden Lion bloodline.
The Golden Lion bloodline\'s innate ability was the Golden Holy Fire, whose power Tang San had seen clearly. This Golden Lion bloodline sample came from a ninth-order Golden Lion, and there was a full kilogram of it. This was an unparalleled treasure for any lion demon, offering a chance to become a member of the Golden Lion Clan.
The lion race was powerful among the demons, with various branches being extremely formidable. You can imagine how fierce the competition was.
Eventually, a god-level Lion King won the bid for nine thousand coins, but it was empyrean coins, not naturae coins. Nine thousand empyrean coins were equivalent to ninety thousand naturae coins. Such an astronomical sum was only accessible to noble clans.
The second golden bloodline auctioned, which Tang San coveted the most, was the Golden Leopard bloodline, the golden bloodline of the leopard race.
Tang San\'s evolution of the Leopard Flash imprint would naturally have to go in this direction. Obtaining the Golden Leopard bloodline would greatly enhance his Demonic God Transformation imprint, possibly even helping him break through to the seventh order.
Of course, it was impossible for him to buy it. These golden bloodlines appeared exclusively for the god-level powerhouses to bid on. In fact, these items were their main target for attending the auction.
The competition was just as fierce, and in the end, a leopard demon secured it for eight thousand Empyrean coins.
Tang San learned at the final checkout that his fifty percent discount was only valid for items below one thousand naturae coins. He had been in fact somewhat puzzled as to why no powerful race had approached him for a partnership to avail of the discount, and that made it clear.
The auction of the last type of blood was the grand finale of the entire auction.
When this blood was brought forth, it was accompanied by four powerful beings, each guarding a corner of the cart. All were god-level demons, exuding a solemn aura. Tang San could feel intense spatial fluctuations around them, as if the blood about to be displayed was isolated in a separate space.
Undoubtedly, these were the mighty ones of the Peacock Demon race. The presence of four god-level powerhouses for a single auction item highlighted its immense significance.
Even Yuan Yinxin herself shivered slightly due to the importance of this item. She respectfully bowed to the four god-level powerhouses of the Peacock Demon race and slowly said, “The next item is the grand finale of today’s auction. I urge you not to let yourselves overcome by excitement and cause a commotion. The Lord of Kali City himself, the Great Demon King of the Peacock Clan, is honoring us with his presence today. He is among us to witness this historical bidding.”
This statement was undoubtedly a warning. The Peacock Great Demon King was a top-tier eleventh-order demon with the purest and most elite bloodline. With such a figure overseeing the event, even beings of the same level wouldn’t dare to act rashly. The power of the Peacock Great Demon King was not something other Great Demon Kings could match.
As expected, after Yuan Yinxin\'s words, the venue quieted down significantly, and all eyes focused on the cart in the center.
Yuan Yinxin carefully lifted the golden cover, revealing a spherical shield underneath.
From inside the shield, a swirl of colorful lights instantly brightened the entire arena.
When the colorful radiance appeared, all the demons, including Tang San, felt a sense of dizziness.
This blood was indeed multicolored, looking exceptionally splendid and captivating. Around the multicolored blood, a faint halo of colors rippled. Its movement was mesmerizing, as if looking at it for too long would cause one\'s soul to be absorbed into it.
