“1200!”

“1500!”

“…”

Although the Heavenly Flame Jade Chalcedony was uncommon, it was, after all, an unusual treasure. Thus, many people had their eyes set on it, and in just a minute, the price was already raised to around 1700 Sovereign Spiritual Liquids.

Lin Jing sat in the chair depressed as she placed her hands on her cheek. Her teeth were clenched as he looked at those fellows intensely snatching it as she spoke with resentment, “If it wasn’t for me leaving in such a hurry, I’d have smashed those fellows to death with Sovereign Spiritual Liquids!”

Mu Chen was resting his arm on the armrest as he looked around. He realised that those people that were interested in the Heavenly Flame Jade Chalcedony didn’t seem to be from those significant forces, which could be seen from their bids. Those that were wealthy wouldn’t play around with so little price.

This realisation made Mu Chen feel slightly relieved.

The price continued to rise for a few minutes before it stopped at 2300 Sovereign Spiritual Liquids.

Seeing as the bid started to end, the white-robed elderly man waited awhile. He raised his hand and was about to announce the results. At this moment, the white-clothed girl had already turned her face over in anger.

“2500.” Mu Chen finally said with a smile.

Some gazes were shot over, but those gazes were a little strange. Even Lin Jing was baffled as she turned her head around and looked at Mu Chen. She bit her lips and was mumbling about something.

The man that raised the bid to 2300 earlier knitted his brows together. He hesitated for a brief moment and did not bid anymore in the end as the price had far exceeded his budget.

Looking at the situation, the white-clothed elder waved his hand, which was followed by a ringing bell that resonated in the auction house, representing that the Heavenly Flame Jade Chalcedony had been successfully bid.

The auction carried on.

The pupils of the white-clothed girl were spinning, her face was a little embarrassed at this moment as she fanned the fan in her hand.

She did not ask why Mu Chen would purchase the Heavenly Flame Jade Chalcedony, since she didn’t want to have wishful thoughts and be embarrassed later on.

Mu Chen held an attitude to watch the show for a long while, seeing that she had actually endured asking, he couldn’t help smiling as he said, “That was indeed for you.”

Lin Jing’s face flushed red as she said, “Thanks for that. I am also cultivating my Sovereign Celestial Body, but I need many types of Jade Chalcedony…”

Hearing her words, Nine Nether took another glance at Lin Jing and a strange light flashed in the depths of her eyes. She had caught onto the words of that girl, about needing many types of Jade Chalcedony.

Although several Sovereign Celestial Body cultivation techniques did require stuff like the Heavenly Flame Jade Chalcedony, there weren’t many Sovereign Celestial Bodies that needed many types of Jade Chalcedony. Take the 63rd ranking of the 99 Ranks of Sovereign Celestial Bodies, the Heavenly Jade Celestial Body, for example. This was a Sovereign Celestial Body that required many types of Jade Chalcedonies as ingredients, and the Heavenly Flame Jade Chalcedony was just one of them.

If Lin Jing was genuinely making preparations to cultivate the Heavenly Jade Celestial Body, then her background would be frightening. Even for Seventh to Eighth Grade Sovereign experts, such a Sovereign Celestial Body rank was extremely attractive.

Also, although the Heavenly Jade Celestial Body wasn’t a high-ranking powerful Celestial Body, it was perfect for those who had just stepped into the Sovereign Realm.

If the Sovereign Celestial Body was too powerful, it would naturally be tough to control it; whereas if it were too weak, I would be useless. Thus, her family members had typically carefully considered everything before letting her cultivate the Heavenly Jade Celestial Body.

Mu Chen did not consider it as much as Nine Nether; after all, he wasn’t too familiar with Sovereign Celestial Bodies. On the spot, he asked from little curiosity, “Your family members did not prepare the ingredients for you?”

The girl before him clearly had a decent background. Although the Heavenly Flame Jade Chalcedony was rare, it shouldn’t be difficult for her to obtain it.

“I want to depend on myself. How meaningless would it be if I needed them to prepare everything for me?” Lin Jing dragged on her cheek as she spoke while shaking her long legs.

Mu Chen helplessly shook his head.

“Right, I’ve said that I would not owe anyone favours.” Lin Jing seemed to have recalled something as she retrieved a jade pendant hug on a red string from her neck.

The jade was white in colour, and looked as if there was liquid flowing in it. In general, it had an extremely aged appearance, but vaguely, indescribable fluctuations were coming from it.

“This is a Defensive Spiritual Jade. It will be activated when you’re in danger. As long as the opponent’s strength doesn’t exceed the Fifth Grade Sovereign Realm, it will be able to block a fatal attack for you.”

Mu Chen and Nine Nether were stunned, their expressions slightly changed. It could defend against a fatal attack from a Fifth Grade Sovereign, that simple and old pendant was actually so powerful?

“Forget it, it was prepared for you by your family. I will not seize the loved possession of others.” Mu Chen shook his head in the end as he smiled, “Furthermore, I’m afraid that the price of this Defensive Spiritual Jade far surpasses the Heavenly Flame Jade Chalcedony.”

“No way, if you don’t want this, I will not take that Heavenly Flame Jade Chalcedony.” However, Lin Jing was abnormally stubborn. She was looking at Mu Chen with a serious look, she was clearly not joking.

That girl similarly had her own principles.

“Also, you don’t have to worry about me. I still have more Defensive Spiritual Jades. Otherwise, I wouldn’t dare to sneak out.” Lin Jing gave Mu Chen a sly smile as she raised her wrist at Mu Chen. On her wrist, there was a small and old Jade Pendant hung on her pearly-white wrist.

Mu Chen was speechless as he sighed in the end. Kids from wealthy families truly were fortunate, they could even wear such precious Defensive Spiritual Jades on their bodies. This made him feel naked. if it weren’t for the Spiritual Condensing Bowl that he managed to obtain with luck, he wouldn’t even have any money to enter this place…

“Here.” Lin Jing handed the Defensive Spiritual Jade over to Mu Chen.

“So in the end, it was me that benefitted from this.” Mu Chen bitterly smiled. He did not reject any further and extended his hand to take the Defensive Spiritual Jade as he sighed with complicated feelings.

“There’s no need to sigh. Mu Chen, you’re indeed a friend!” Lin Jing smiled as she gave Mu Chen a thumbs-up. Her thumb was as round as a pearl, it was cute.

Clearly, Mu Chen bidding the Heavenly Flame Jade Chalcedony for her earlier raised some good feelings in Lin Jing’s heart. After all, not just anyone would spend over 2000 Sovereign Spiritual Liquids for an item that they wouldn’t need after knowing them for such a short time.

Furthermore, she was intelligent and had sensed that Mu Chen wasn’t someone that could disregard 2000 Sovereign Spiritual Liquids. This was the main reason why it was hard to be valued.

Although she was young, her experience far surpassed Mu Chen’s imagination. She wasn’t someone lacking in insight.

Mu Chen received the Defensive Spiritual Jade and stored it, but he did not talk to Lin Jing, who was more and more excited. He raised his head to look forward. In the time that they conversed, three or four items had already been successfully auctioned.

Those treasures weren’t ordinary items, there were Divine Artifacts and Divine Arts, thus attracting a fight over them, which raised the atmosphere of the auction house higher.

However, the Void Great Solar Fruit and Undying Divine Leaf that Mu Chen had been waiting for had yet to appear.

This made his brows knit together, since he knew that the price would get higher the more it was further at the back. Naturally, the main point was that those heavyweights in the pavilions had yet to take any action yet.

Because of a seal of the Spiritual Condensing Bowl being unsealed, he had a total of 18,000 Sovereign Spiritual Liquids. It wasn’t a small amount, but he didn’t have any confidence in getting the two remaining treasures.

Time gradually passed under Mu Chen’s slow wait. After seven items had been successfully auctioned out, Mu Chen’s eyes abruptly lit up.

He saw a brilliant light in the hand of the white-clothed elder on the stage. That light was as intense as the sun as it brightly lit up the entire auction house.

A peculiar ripple spread out.

The entire auction house instantly went into silence as every gaze was directed at the light of the intense sun. In the depths of the fire, they could vaguely see a fruit that was blazing with white flames as the endless light was emitted from it.

Mu Chen’s eyes were heated as he stared at that fruit, his entire body had straightened up, excitement filled his head, since he had finally found the Void Great Solar Fruit.

When Mu Chen was staring at the Void Great Solar Fruit, some commotions were coming from the several pavilions in the front. Gazes were shot out. Clearly, they had been attracted by it.

“This is the Void Great Solar Fruit, I believe everyone has heard of it before. If one is able to refine it, it will form a spiritual sun in his or her Sovereign Sea. Under the shining the spiritual sun, it would mix the power of the blazing sun into the Spiritual Energies in the Sovereign Sea, making it even more powerful.”

“I will not speak of how rare it is, the starting bid of this Void Great Solar Fruit will begin at 7000 Sovereign Spiritual Liquids!”

When his words fell, it attracted many commotions. The price of it was so high that made many people stopped their steps, but they couldn’t lower their gazes. After all, there weren’t many treasures that could increase the power of Spiritual Energies.

“7000 Sovereign Spiritual Liquids.”

Hearing that price, Mu Chen’s heart sank. It was only the starting bid, if he wanted to get his hands on it, he would naturally have to go through an intense fight for it. At that time, who knew what it would be priced at.

Haaa.

Mu Chen inhaled a mouthful of air as his gaze grew sharp. No matter what, he definitely couldn’t give up so easily.

If he lost this chance now, who knew how long he would have to wait to cultivate the Great Solar Undying Body.
