CHAPTER 800: CHAPTER 492: INSTANT WEALTH

After the hammer fell, the dragon crystals had to be handed over, and the auction item transferred; immediately, the Dragon Guards of the Canglong Family came to Sha Taiqi’s terrace.

Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, although Sha Taiqi knew he had overpaid, he still paid honestly.

He dared not renege at the auction under the Dragon Emperor’s banner.

With a wave of Sha Taiqi’s hand, a mountain of ether crystals appeared on the terrace, their light dazzling all the mutants present, leaving them utterly astounded. Most people had never seen so many ether crystals in their lives.

The Dragon Guards were all well-trained, requiring less than half a minute to count them, discovering the amount was insufficient.

Gritting his teeth, Sha Taiqi produced several dozen hexagonal crystal tokens, the size of a palm, with text and designs engraved on both sides.

These were the Dragon Crystal Currency.

Each token had a face value of 100,000 and was bearer, allowing anyone to exchange it for ether crystals at the Dynasty Bank.

"Thank you, sir."

The Dragon Guards carefully collected the ether crystals and dragon crystals, retreating with respectful confidence.

At the same time, a stream of light flew from Cang Hao’s hand in the center of the auction hall, landing in Sha Taiqi’s hand; it was the Star Gate coordinates of "Naraki Star."

After receiving it, Sha Taiqi’s ash-gray face relaxed, showing satisfaction with the location of this planet.

People remained immersed in the transaction worth ten million dragon crystals, and the auction continued.

"The second auction item."

Cang Hao’s voice echoed all around, and in his introduction, a dragon bound by water currents in the vortex below the lake surface slowly floated up, suspended in mid-air.

This was a dragon gleaming with golden light, its whole body covered in dragon scales that appeared cast from gold, with purple glowing from within. Its body exceeded fifty meters, exuding a frenzied and domineering aura; just from its appearance, it was undoubtedly extraordinary, superior to most dragon species.

"Purple Gold Dragon!"

The mutants exclaimed in surprise.

Ji Xinghuo was also amazed; the Purple Gold Dragon belonged to the Sky Dragon Species within the "Golden Dragon Series," though not as rare as the Divine Dragon Species, they were extremely scarce.

The Purple Gold Dragon possessed strength, defense, speed, and recovery power; its talent ability was a "kinetic energy field," with no weakness, and while it lacked an absolute specialty, each ability was top-notch among dragon species. Overall, it was extraordinarily powerful, and its dragon vein compatibility was extremely high, with limitless potential.

Such a strong Purple Gold Dragon was actually up for auction.

Truly unbelievable.

The crowd was in an uproar!

Cang Hao proclaimed loudly, "Bright Level Purple Gold Dragon, starting bid of 500,000 dragon crystals, minimum increment per bid is 50,000 dragon crystals, exclusively for true dragons to bid."

Exclusively for true dragons to bid?

Immediately, other races of mutants protested, but one glance from Cang Hao silenced them.

The true dragons were jubilant; the noble Purple Gold Dragon bloodline, of course, could only be awarded to true dragons primarily, no outsiders allowed.

Everyone was raising their bidding tokens.

Cang Hao reported the current highest bid at an extremely fast pace, quickly surpassing 1,000,000 dragon crystals, and still climbing.

"Bidder 2842 offers 1,050,000 dragon crystals."

"Bidder 17423 offers 1,100,000."

"1,200,000 dragon crystals!"

In Cang Hao’s eloquent broadcast, the atmosphere heated up, with one mutant after another raising their bidding tokens, driving prices sky-high.

Ji Xinghuo admired the Purple Gold Dragon but had no intention of competing.

Also, he couldn’t afford it.

If there were no Annihilation Dragon or other Divine Dragon Species, it might be worth gathering funds to attempt to acquire and cultivate a Purple Gold Dragon. With his methods, its combat power would not be inferior to the Divine Dragon Species. However, currently, it was unnecessary.

With Qing Hong, Doomsday, and Jiu You, he already had three bottomless pits for spending wealth. Raising another war pet was simply unaffordable.

He glanced at Cang Ya beside him and saw her eyes fixed on the Purple Gold Dragon, so he smiled and asked, "Are you interested?"

"Yes." Cang Ya nodded slightly.

She walked the path of "Dragon Shepherd" evolution, where the more dragons, the better. Even having recently acquired a Cloud Sea Dragon, she still wasn’t satisfied.

At this point, the bid for the Purple Gold Dragon had reached 1,500,000 dragon crystals.

"Too expensive!"

Cang Ya’s face was full of helplessness.

By now, the only bidders left were a few true dragons; either they were Shepherd Star Saints or representatives of the True Dragon Family.

Ji Xinghuo noticed Yunhuo Xiao also raising his token, "Master Xiao is interested too."

"Seniors like Yunhuo are among the wealthiest in the Bibo Dragon Domain, over one million dragon crystals is not much to them." Cang Ya said enviously.

"Indeed!"

Ji Xinghuo thought of the exhibits in the Zhu Xing Lake estate display room, several dozen Apocalypse Level treasures amounted to three or four million in value.

Once a casting master makes a name, they are never short on money.

"1,800,000 dragon crystals, sold!"

Cang Hao hammered again, striking the giant copper gong in the sky, its sound spreading far and wide.

The winner of the Purple Gold Dragon was Yunhuo Xiao.

The price was clearly inflated, but to Yunhuo Xiao, it was not significant; around him, fellow Shepherd Star Saints congratulated him, his face beaming with joy. He obviously was fond of the Purple Gold Dragon and intended to cultivate it intensively.

After the transaction, the auction moved on.

"The third auction item, Star-falling Species Ether Resonance..." Cang Hao began the introduction, holding the alien species.

Following the two previous high-priced auction items, a Star-falling Species seemed like a letdown to the mutants.

But they also understood there couldn’t be many treasures worth several million dragon crystals.

So many mutants attended the auction; everyone should have a chance to participate.

Ether Resonance was widely applicable, usable by nearly all mutants, offering lifelong benefits, quickly sparking a new round of bidding, more intense and fiery than the previous two auction items, with people everywhere raising their tokens.
