Chapter 70

Finally…a major item appeared!

On stage, the auctioneer wheeled out a table.

“Ladies and gentlemen, this next item is truly extraordinary.”

“I guarantee…”

“You’ll go wild for it!”

“No one will be able to resist!”

The auctioneer’s excitement was palpable…his voice trembled with anticipation.

The crowd’s curiosity peaked.

Gu Yang raised an eyebrow, intrigued.

He looked toward the table being pushed onto the stage.

“Hm?”

His gaze sharpened.

He sensed… a familiar aura.

Just then, the auctioneer smiled and lifted the black cloth.

A strange wooden box came into view.

He carefully opened it.

Inside was a bizarre-looking herb…sharp as needles, its form unlike any ordinary plant.

The crowd stared in confusion.

“What is that?”

“Looks like a medicinal herb?”

“Doesn’t look like one. What kind of herb is that sharp? It’s like a bunch of needles!”

“Stop teasing us…just tell us what it is!”

The cultivators couldn’t guess its identity and grew impatient.

Even Liu Tianxiang was curious…he’d never seen anything like it.

But Gu Yang’s eyes burned with intensity.

Well damn… someone’s actually willing to sell this thing?

He was genuinely surprised.

Seeing the crowd’s curiosity reach its peak, the auctioneer finally revealed the truth.

He smiled.

“Since everyone’s so eager, I won’t keep it hidden.”

“This item is… the Sword Insight Grass!”

His voice rang out loud and clear.

Boom!

The crowd erupted.

“Sword Insight Grass?”

“What a weird name. What does it do?”

Hiss… “Don’t tell me it helps you comprehend sword intent!”

“Holy crap! If that’s true, I’ll sell everything I own to get it!”

“No way, right? If it really does that, who’d be dumb enough to sell it?”

The excitement was mixed with skepticism.

Understandable…anyone with such a treasure would use it themselves.

Why auction it off?

But the auctioneer beamed with pride.

“You guessed right!”

“The Sword Insight Grass aids in comprehending sword intent!”

“After consuming it and performing sword techniques, your chances of grasping sword intent increase dramatically!”

“It’s not guaranteed…but the probability is high!”

“There was once an ordinary cultivator who consumed this grass and instantly grasped sword intent, soaring to fame as a prodigy!”

“And for those who’ve already grasped sword intent, this grass can help them reach even greater heights.”

“So its value… speaks for itself.”

“Sword Insight Grass…starting bid: 10,000 low-grade spirit stones. Minimum increment: 1,000. Let the auction… begin!”

With that, the hall exploded.

“Holy crap! It really helps with sword intent?”

“12,000! I want it!”

“12,000? Dream on! I bid 15,000!”

“Heh… peasants. 20,000!”

The atmosphere went nuclear.

Bids flew like arrows.

Prices skyrocketed…20,000, 30,000…

In less than ten minutes, the Sword Insight Grass hit 50,000 spirit stones.

And that… was just the beginning.

Because…

The second-floor elites finally joined the fray.

“60,000.”

A calm voice echoed from a luxury box near Gu Yang’s.

The crowd below sighed in defeat.

Looks like we’re out.

No way we can compete with those monsters upstairs.

But just as that voice faded…

Another bid rang out from a different luxury box.

“70,000.”

The voice was aged but powerful…clearly someone formidable.

And just like that, the duel began.

“80,000!”

“90,000!”

“95,000!”

“100,000!”

In mere seconds, the price soared to 100,000.

The crowd was dumbfounded.

Do spirit stones mean nothing to these people?

Just tossing out 100,000 like it’s pocket change?

Faces twisted with envy and disbelief.

Even Liu Tianxiang, who had considered bidding, could only shake his head and give up.

As for Gu Yang…

He glanced at the current price.

Well damn… it’s already at 120,000.
