Chapter 221: I Want Them All!
spirit marrow, valued at a million.
For a Star Realm Expert, it’s not some cheap juice, but a high-end item that would make them feel a pang of heartache even if they drank just one bottle.
When the Pinnacle Battle begins, buying it is for the younger generation.
How many years would it take for a child to earn back this investment?
Of course, only the one with the best Aptitude, the best talent, and everything else best, is worth investing in.
Therefore, even large forces wouldn’t buy so many bottles at once.
Being expensive is one thing; being wasteful is another.
Who would waste so much money on their descendants?
Moreover.
This year, the Starry Sky Arena is hosting it, not only is the difficulty high, but the rules are also extremely cruel. Geniuses often stumble in the Starry Sky Arena and perform abnormally.
It can be said that the Starry Sky Arena hosts the most exciting Pinnacle Battle.
At the same time.
It is also the least worthwhile Pinnacle Battle to invest in.
Of course, if one aims to reach the Peak of the Human Race, then they would certainly invest at all costs.
But Qingxuan Realm is not a super strong Star Realm like Central Continent Realm, Phoenix God Realm, or Yun Hai Realm. They don’t even have the confidence to Breakthrough fifty layers, so they are basically out of luck for rewards.
Even if the various forces don’t want to give up, they still have to face the reality.
"1.1 million, no more than that."
"Damn! 1.2 million in an instant? All taken!?"
"Hiss!!"
"Are you really not going to leave us a bottle? Isn’t that too much?"
If it weren’t for everyone’s complete trust in the Cosmic Bank’s rules, someone would have jumped out on the spot to point fingers and curse the Cosmic Bank for playing tricks.
"1.5 million! My son, Lin Ran, has a chance to assault the fiftieth layer. I ask this mysterious powerful figure, please give him a chance!"
In a private room on the right, a Star Realm Expert declared.
The hall immediately fell silent.
"Jiuxuan Lin Family?"
"Hmm, I did hear that their family produced an unparalleled Genius. He was able to comprehend over ten layers of wood-elemental Law at the Galaxy Level. Now that he has just broken through to the Star River, it’s the perfect time to use the spirit marrow to enhance his Realm and further his comprehension."
"It is said that Minister Qian Yun also summoned Lin Ran into the special training camp and personally instructed him ...."
"Oh ?"
"So, Lin Ran really has a chance to Breakthrough the fiftieth layer?"
"Well, one can only say it’s possible. After all, the fiftieth layer is still too difficult."
"To be able to step into the fiftieth layer, one needs to at least formally step into the Space threshold, comprehend a Space Law, and be proficient in using Moves, with rich combat experience."
....Ha.
Qin Mu couldn’t help but laugh when he heard this:
"Ten layers? What kind of trash is that?"
"Let alone comparing with Geniuses from Transcendent Factionss, with this level, he probably couldn’t even get a ranking in the last Pinnacle Battle, could he?"
With a single remark.
The entire hall fell silent.
"What?"
"Get a ranking?"
"What a joke!!"
"How many years has it been since anyone from our Qingxuan Realm got a ranking?"
"Let alone the Pinnacle Battle hosted by the Starry Sky Arena, even in regular Pinnacle Battles, none of our Geniuses have been able to get a ranking."
"You’re thinking too much "
"That’s the entire Universe, billions of Star Realms, all Human Race, all Geniuses, competing on the same stage."
"The requirement for the top one thousand gatekeepers in the last session was at least thirty layers of Law comprehension, plus a trace of Space comprehension."
"The key point is ....!!"
"The last Pinnacle Battle was only at the Galaxy Level!"
"Terrifying "
"The Geniuses of the Universe are truly terrifying, really!"
"I was stuck at Star River Peak for millions of years, unable to comprehend Space Law, while these Geniuses of the Universe can manipulate Space at the Galaxy Level. How can one compare?"
....A group of people discussed animatedly.
Qin Mu listened, but secretly shook his head.
"Too trashy."
"You are not worthy of using spirit marrow!"
Immediately.
He pushed the price of the spirit marrow to 1.5 million.
Pfft!
"Unworthy ...."
In the hall, many Star Realm Experts even got genuinely angry. If they weren’t in the Metaverse, in an auction house, they would definitely want to see who dared to utter such arrogant words.
"Saying we’re unworthy?"
"May I ask, Your Excellency, who are you?"
"Transcendent Factionss don’t participate in this kind of auction, and among Qingxuan Realm, the Qidala Empire and Laya Alliance have abundant resources and many channels, so they wouldn’t come either."
"The remaining Jiuxuan, Star Luo Sect, and Luol Temple probably wouldn’t dare to say such words, would they?"
At this moment, a voice sounded.
"My Luol Temple dares not utter such arrogant words."
"The difficulty of the fiftieth layer in the Starry Sky Arena has trapped Qingxuan Realm for tens of millions of years. If Your Excellency’s descendant can break through, everyone in Qingxuan Realm will feel honored."
"However, for Your Excellency to take ten bottles of spirit marrow in one go and assert that other Geniuses have no chance, isn’t that a bit excessive?"
....As soon as the person from Luol Temple spoke, the other experts became even more agitated.
"Right!"
"First, state your name! This sovereign wants to see which force you belong to, what kind of foundation you have, to dare utter such arrogant words?"
"Ten bottles?"
"Even if we give you ten bottles, can you Cultivate ten Geniuses to Breakthrough the fiftieth layer?"
"If so, this sovereign is willing to immediately acknowledge you as my master after the Starry Sky Battle!"
Hmph.
"If you don’t have that courage, then don’t monopolize the supply and cut off the path for other Geniuses!"
....Ao Mengmeng saw the situation and said directly:
"Qin Mu, spirit marrow is a rare treasure of the Universe, but Transcendent Factionss don’t seem to lack spirit marrow too much."
"Before every Pinnacle Battle, it is put up for auction."
"However, it might also be the Transcendent Factionss cultivating various Star Realms, providing some scarce resources at critical moments for Geniuses to use."
"If not for this method, even if ordinary Star Realms had Geniuses, they might not even see what spirit marrow looks like."
Pfft.
Does that have anything to do with me?
Qin Mu didn’t care about any of that.
spirit marrow isn’t even enough for him, giving it to these wastes would be a waste, wouldn’t it?
"1.8 million!"
"If you want to buy it, show some strength!"
"Do you have that confidence?"
"Hey, what’s your son’s name again? You believe so much that he can Breakthrough, then come up and bid! It’s just a bottle of spirit marrow, can’t you even afford two or three million energy stones?"
"Is that what you call confidence?"
....Everyone was speechless for a moment.
"Holy crap!"
"That’s a bit much!"
"Confidence is one thing, but wasting money for nothing, isn’t that foolish?"
"Millions!! That’s not qidala gold coin, that’s energy stones!!"
"With so much money, if one really wanted to Cultivate, several Galaxy Level experts could be cultivated. Is it fair to use it solely for one Genius?!"
....Time passed by second by second.
The price of 1.8 million hung there, unmoving.
Many people shouted, but not a single one actually went up to bid.
Silence.
"Sigh "
Ao Mengmeng couldn’t help but sigh: "Qingxuan Realm is truly in decline now. The basic reward layer of the fiftieth floor, as long as one passes through, one can obtain many rewards. In terms of long-term value, it is definitely lower than a few million energy stones."
"As a result, they are now unwilling to even invest that much money. One can only say .... pitiful!"
Geniuses.
Need talent, and even more, investment.
Even if Ao Mengmeng had few things in her possession, she was willing to invest in Qin Mu when he was at a low level.
The fewer Geniuses there are, the more one needs to invest.
Otherwise, the less one invests, the fewer Geniuses there will be, directly entering a vicious cycle .... Dong!
The bidding ended, 1.8 million, ten bottles, all taken.
"Oh dear!"
At this moment, a wave of regret swept through the hall.
"I should have added a bit just now. I was too busy arguing with you guys. It was only 1.8 million, can’t I afford it?"
"Letting him take it all by himself, this year’s Pinnacle Battle, Qingxuan Realm is probably going to be miserable again."
Damn!
Qin Mu immediately cursed loudly.
"What the hell!"
"It’s all over, and now you’re acting big-headed?"
"And even trying to find an excuse for a poor performance in the Pinnacle Battle."
"You guys are truly despicable."
"With this mindset, Qingxuan Realm won’t produce a Genius who can Breakthrough fifty layers even in another hundred million years!!"
Hmph.
As soon as these words came out, someone immediately sneered: "The spirit marrow is all in your hands. If you can’t Breakthrough fifty layers, it won’t be us who lose face then."
"Exactly."
"Not giving resources to other Geniuses, and then making sarcastic remarks."
"If you have the ability, prove it to us in the Pinnacle Battle "
"Don’t say ten, even if there’s one Breakthrough expert this year who isn’t a Disciple of the major forces, I’ll immediately become your Disciple, even if it means shining your shoes every day, no problem at all !"
....Qin Mu wanted to get angry, but unfortunately, this was the Metaverse. He immediately reined in his Aura and said coldly:
"You are not worthy of having Geniuses!"
"And even less worthy of shining my shoes!"
....With a rumble.
All the Star Realm Experts in the hall stood up, their eyes fiercely fixed on the private room.
Even from other private rooms, experts cast their gazes.
Qin Mu completely ignored them.
He checked the results on his own.
The total price was 18 million, with no discount, because auctions are not a basic business.
However, the money in his account, plus his credit limit, was enough to pay.
Next.
The host immediately started the second round of bidding.
"Cultivation Technique - Lightning Storm."
"Produced by the Transcendent Factions, All Stars Finance, for the highest sixty layers of lightning-elemental Law comprehension and application, limited to one user, starting bid 100,000, bidding starts now."
....The appearance of the Cultivation Technique immediately attracted everyone’s attention.
Qin Mu had his own lightning-elemental Cultivation Technique and wouldn’t care.
However, seeing the price soaring, one had to admit that Transcendent Factionss really knew how to make money.
They could limit the number of users for the Cultivation Technique, so they weren’t afraid of it leaking.
With so many Cultivators in the Universe, who wouldn’t want to get a Cultivation Technique produced by a Transcendent Factions as a foundation?
Even if it couldn’t be passed down, Cultivating it alone would be greatly beneficial.
The money they earned was skyrocketing.
Ultimately.
A limited-use lightning-elemental Law sold for a high price of 900,000.
Next.
Various Materials and Cultivation Techniques, Qin Mu could only look at.
Because he was out of money.
The 20 million energy stones in cash certainly couldn’t be touched.
That was money for survival.
As for incomplete Cultivation Techniques, they couldn’t even pique Qin Mu’s interest.
"Xuan Guan Yu should be coming out soon."
Qin Mu scrolled down the list and found his consigned item.
The item before that was.
void core.
"What is this thing?"
Qin Mu indicated that the Universe Travel Guide didn’t have such strange goods.
Ao Mengmeng’s eyes, however, flashed upon hearing this:
"Good stuff!"
"If it’s a complete void core, we must get it!!"
