Chapter 204 The End Is the Beginning
Inside the auction house.
Suddenly, four people dressed as ancient Chinese people walked in.
Suddenly, Qin Tian raised his eyes and narrowed his eyes slightly. He knew three of them. They were Ling Yu from Penglai and his two maids.
In addition, there is also a beautiful woman wearing a beige dress. She looks to be in her early twenties, but her cultivation level is extremely high and has reached the late stage of Jindan.
However, the other party's eyes flashed with curiosity, and he looked at everything around him from time to time.
It seemed that Ling Yu was a little afraid of this woman.
Suddenly, Lingyu sensed Qin Tian's gaze and turned his head suddenly. His face suddenly darkened, but he immediately turned around again.
"Sir, isn't that guy...?" Xiao Qing suddenly pointed at Qin Tiandao, but was interrupted by Ling Yu: "Shut up, we are here to do business, don't cause trouble!"
"Hey, little nephew, have you ever suffered a loss at the hands of that person?"
The woman in a beige dress asked with a meaningful smile.
Ling Yu blushed a little and said, "It's okay, little Senior Sister, I had some conflicts with that guy, and no one took advantage!"
"Yeah?"
The woman smiled meaningfully, but did not continue to ask, which made Ling Yu sigh in relief.
Less than two minutes after the people from Penglai arrived, people from the Shushan Sword Sect also arrived. Then, another group of monks appeared, and then several groups of people from the world of immortality appeared.
The strongest ones have reached the peak of the early stage of Nascent Soul.
Qin Tian's mood was a little heavy. If there were no accidents, these immortal cultivators were probably all here for the King Yu Cauldron.
Not to mention that Penglai and Shushan are both immortal cultivating forces with great masters. Even the origins of the other groups are quite complicated. Take the group of monks as an example. If he was not mistaken, they were also great immortal cultivators from the hidden world. Power Bodhi Sect.
There is also a group of Taoists, who should also come from the Sanqing Sect, a great sect of cultivating immortals in the hidden world.
As for the Nascent Soul powerhouse, he had restrained his aura, and the followers around him were actually just a pair of ordinary people. Therefore, Qin Tian was unable to determine his origin for the time being.
In general, among the immortal cultivators who appeared at the auction, there was only one Nascent Soul powerhouse and a total of eleven people, not counting Qin Tian himself.
At the same time, Qin Tian sensed more than ten faint auras of strong men outside the auction house.
Therefore, it is definitely difficult to win the King Yu Cauldron today.
If not, you will become the target of siege.
"Master, what's wrong?"
Situ Yan noticed Qin Tian's expression and asked with concern.
"fine!"
Qin Tian shook his head and closed his eyes again to rest.
The time finally came to eight o'clock in the evening.
The auctioneer stepped onto the auction stage in front and gave a long speech and thanks before the auction officially began.
The first lot is an oil painting by a famous Western painter.
The starting price is two million US dollars, and each bid must not be less than 100,000 US dollars.
In the end, the painting was sold for 5.2 million, and the buyer was a Western businessman.
The second auction item was a gold coin. This gold coin was the first batch of gold coins issued after the independence of the United States. It is quite rare and therefore the competition was fierce. It was sold for US$6.8 million.
The third lot is a Yuan blue and white porcelain bowl.
The price of blue and white porcelain has become more and more expensive in recent years, and Yuan blue and white porcelain has the best quality among blue and white porcelains and has high collection value.
Most of the people who took action this time were Chinese businessmen, and there were also white people bidding.
In the end, this Yuan blue and white porcelain bowl was bought by a wealthy man from the mainland for 18.6 million yuan.
Time passed slowly.
One by one precious items were auctioned off, and the atmosphere became increasingly lively.
But both Qin Tian and the group of immortal cultivators looked on with cold eyes and had no intention of bidding.
finally.
It’s King Yu’s turn.
Qin Tian found that the expressions of these immortal cultivators were stern.
The auctioneer introduced: "This ancient tripod comes from the ancient dynasties of China. Miraculously, after carbon 14 identification, this ancient tripod is actually over 10,000 years old. As we all know, the history of our human development is only More than five thousand years, so we conclude that this ancient tripod is a prehistoric item. Perhaps we can rely on it to find a forgotten civilization. Now, the auction officially begins, with a starting price of 10 million, and each increase must not be less than Five hundred thousand!”
"Twenty million!"
As soon as the auctioneer finished speaking, there was a voice. Everyone looked around and saw that the person bidding was a handsome young man in ancient costume.
After Lingyu finished calling out the price, he looked at Qin Tian provocatively.
Qin Tian was speechless about this.
The auctioneer was also very excited and actually doubled the price. He had a hunch that this ancient tripod might be auctioned for a sky-high price tonight.
"This gentleman bids 20 million US dollars. Is there anyone else who bids higher?"
"Twenty-one million!"
Situ Yan added one million at Qin Tian's signal.
"Thirty million!"
Lingyu increased the price without hesitation.
"Master, do you want more?" Situ Yan frowned and asked, "This guy must be causing trouble on purpose!"
"Shout 100 million!"
Qin Tiandao.
After a slight hesitation, Situ Yan directly quoted 100 million. Suddenly, the whole audience was silent. At the same time, she also looked back at Ling Yu with disdain.
"Twenty million!"
Lingyu was so stimulated that he doubled the price.
At this time, everyone's eyes were focused on Ling Yu, who became the focus of the audience.
"No more shouting!"
Qin Tiandao.
If you want to really take the Yuwang Ding, it doesn't count from the auction. There is no need to compete with the other party for pride, which will save the auction.
Sure enough, the other immortal cultivation forces all had such plans and did not bid.
"Congratulations to this gentleman, you won this small tripod at a sky-high price of 200 million. Maybe you can discover a civilization with this small tripod!" The auctioneer announced the news loudly.
Ling Yu smiled proudly: "This tripod belongs to our Penglai. No one else is qualified to get it except us!"
"Penglai!"
The other groups of immortal cultivation forces were shocked when they heard this, and there was a little more fear in their eyes.
Penglai is one of the three immortal islands and the most mysterious force in the immortal cultivation world. It is said that there have been immortal masters.
For a while, those immortal cultivation forces who did not bid regretted it.
But thinking of the origin of the small tripod, they once again determined their plans. Even if it was Penglai, it was a treasure. How could they want to take it away with just a name?
As for Ling Yu, he thought that if he told the origin of Penglai, those immortal cultivation forces would retreat wisely, but he didn't expect that he had become the target of public criticism.
"Master, do you want us to arrange for someone to grab the small tripod?"
Situ Yan asked through voice transmission, seeking Qin Tian's opinion.
"No need!"
Qin Tian responded, what a joke, asking the people of Tang Sect to ambush the immortal cultivators is simply sending them to death.
Finally.
The auction ended, and the atmosphere became tense. At the same time, the immortal cultivators of several forces locked onto Ling Yu to prevent him from getting the Yuwang Ding and escaping.
"Hmph!"
The girl in the light yellow dress snorted softly, she felt some ill intentions, and snorted coldly: "Nephew, let's go!" (To be continued)
