Chapter 1793 Fragments of 8 Buddhist Pagodas!
In the VIP rooms, most of the established players showed little interest.
Only a few emerging powers, or those that need to rebuild and rapidly upgrade their bases, have shown interest.
"The spark of civilization, starting bid 12 billion."
This starting price is not considered high at today's auction.
"One hundred and fifty billion." A voice tentatively offered a price from the Xuanzi No. 3 VIP room.
"18 billion."
Two hundred billion.
The bidding proceeded slowly, with each increment only amounting to two or three billion, indicating a very cautious approach.
When the price reached 35 billion, only three bidders remained.
Ye Chuyun did not rush to make a move; he was observing.
Sure enough, when the price reached 40 billion, one of the bidders withdrew.
The remaining two bidders began to hesitate, and their bids became smaller.
"Four hundred and twenty billion."
"Four hundred and thirty billion."
Mr. Jin began the countdown: "Four hundred and thirty billion, the first time!"
"43 billion for the second time!"
Just as the golden gavel was about to fall...
"50 billion."
Ye Chuyun's voice rang out.
Upon hearing the price, both bidders fell silent.
Five hundred billion is already considered a high price for the spark of civilization.
After all, it is only useful for emerging forces and has a limited scope of application.
Mr. Jin counted down again: "Five hundred billion, the first time!"
"50 billion for the second time!"
"50 billion for the third time!"
"make a deal!!"
The golden gavel fell.
The spark of civilization belongs to Ye Chuyun.
Bai Chen breathed a sigh of relief: "Five hundred billion, that's a very good price."
Zu Long laughed and said, "Those established forces don't care about these kinds of auxiliary items, which is a good deal for us."
Kurosawa couldn't help but joke, "If they knew the true value of the spark of civilization to the Weiyang base, they probably wouldn't have let go so easily."
Ye Chuyun said with satisfaction, "The fourth item is sold. Only one item remains."
He looked at the auction stage, his anticipation growing stronger.
At this point, Mr. Jin had already taken out the last temporary auction item.
It was a small, black wooden box, about the size of a palm, and looked quite ordinary.
However, the moment Mr. Jin opened the wooden box, an indescribable ancient aura surged out of the box and permeated the entire auction hall.
Inside the wooden box lay a crystal fragment.
The fragments are dark gold in color and covered with cracks, as if they would shatter at the slightest touch.
It had no energy fluctuations or aura of any laws; it was just like an ordinary stone.
But this seemingly ordinary fragment plunged the entire auction house into an eerie silence.
Everyone stared at the fragment, trying to discern its extraordinary nature.
But no matter how you look at it, it looks like a piece of junk.
However, Mr. Jin's expression was unusually solemn.
He slowly said, "The fifth item for temporary auction is the [Unknown Fragment]."
"The origin, age, and function of this item are unknown."
"The only thing that can be confirmed is that it comes from an extremely powerful world, and may even be one of the earliest ancient worlds that descended upon the world of gods and demons in its early stages."
"According to the seller, he has had this item for over a thousand years. During that time, he has consulted countless appraisal masters, antiquarians, and even divination experts to study it, but none of them could determine its origin and function."
"All I know is that this thing is indestructible. Even the Lord of Ruins once tried to attack it with Nirvana-level power, but failed to damage it in the slightest."
"I have also tried various methods to activate, refine, and stimulate it, but there has been no response."
"In the end, the Ruins Master determined that this object was an unknown wonder, perhaps hiding some earth-shattering secret, or perhaps just a useless fragment."
"Starting bid: 5 billion."
A starting bid of 5 billion is actually quite high for a completely unknown and potentially useless fragment.
But even the Lord of the Ruins said it was very mysterious, so perhaps it really hides some earth-shattering secret.
The entire room fell silent.
Everyone is weighing the pros and cons.
Is it worth spending billions or even tens of billions to buy a piece of scrap that may be completely useless?
For top-tier powers, billions are nothing, but their money doesn't come from thin air.
For smaller and medium-sized enterprises, billions of dollars is a huge sum of money, and they dare not take the risk lightly.
Ye Chuyun stared at the fragment, her brows furrowing slightly.
His intuition told him that this fragment was not simple.
But he couldn't quite put his finger on what was so complicated about it.
Zulong and Kurosawa were also observing carefully.
Suddenly, Zu Long's body trembled slightly.
He stared intently at the fragment, an incredulous glint in his eyes.
"This...this is..."
Zu Long's voice was trembling.
Ye Chuyun turned to look at him: "Senior, do you recognize this?"
Zu Long forcibly suppressed his excitement and whispered, "Listen to me, no matter what, take it."
"Save the cost, take the picture!"
Ye Chuyun's eyes narrowed: "Why?"
Zu Long glanced at Bai Chen and secretly transmitted his voice: "If I'm not mistaken, that fragment comes from the [Eightfold Pagoda]."
Eight-fold pagoda!
Ye Chuyun was shocked!
Of course he knew what the Eight-Part Pagoda was; it was a true innate spiritual treasure capable of infinite evolution.
Zu Long continued to transmit his voice: "If I'm not mistaken, that fragment on the auction stage is a part of the Eight-Part Pagoda!"
"Moreover, it is part of a genuine innate spiritual treasure."
"Moreover, judging from the aura, that fragment is very likely from the [Celestial Division] or the [Dragon Division], which will greatly help the Eight Divisions Pagoda to evolve further."
Ye Chuyun's heart pounded, and she became increasingly excited.
The Eight-Part Pagoda is already powerful enough. If it could evolve again, how powerful would it become?
At this point, people had already started placing bids at the auction.
"Five and a half billion."
Six billion.
"Seven billion."
The bidding was moderate, with each increment being only 500 million or 1 billion.
Clearly, no one is very optimistic about this fragment.
Ye Chuyun seized the opportunity and said, "Ten billion."
The increase from seven billion to ten billion demonstrates their determination to win.
But this time, no one thought he was wasting money.
After all, Ye Chuyun had already demonstrated his astonishing wealth with the previous few items, so 10 billion was really nothing to him.
"One hundred and eleven billion." The old man in the second VIP box of the Xuan class seemed to be interested in this fragment as well.
"15 billion." Ye Chuyun raised the price.
The old man hesitated for a moment: "One hundred and sixty billion."
"Two hundred billion." Ye Chuyun replied without hesitation.
This time, the old man gave up.
Buying an unknown fragment for 20 billion is too risky.
Mr. Jin began the countdown: "Two hundred billion, the first time!"
"Two hundred billion, for the second time!"
Just when everyone thought the fragment would belong to Ye Chuyun...
"Two hundred and fifty billion."
The voice came from Box No. 6, the representative of the "Hall of Truth".
The Temple of Truth, that mysterious academic organization, is known for its intense desire to study the unknown.
Clearly, they were interested in this fragment that even the Lord of the Ruins couldn't understand.
