My Fairy Growth System

"2.6 billion, I, Demon Saint Yuan Hong, am determined to acquire this Coiling Dragon Stick!" Demon Saint Yuan Hong's voice grew louder.

Saint Venerable Yue Gang snorted coldly and stopped bidding.

"3 billion!" Yu Qingtan's tone was calm as she continued to raise the bid.

"Who are you to dare vie with this Saint for treasures?" The box from which Demon Saint Yuan Hong projected his presence let out a powerful aura, his voice throbbing in the ears of Cultivators below.

"If you can't afford it, then scram!" Yu Qingtan didn't indulge him at all; after all, the other party certainly wouldn't dare to break the rules of Hundred Treasures Pavilion and take action, not to mention he could not beat her.

"Hmph, 3.1 billion!" Demon Saint Yuan Hong snorted coldly and made another bid.

"3.1 billion?" Yu Qingtan smiled lightly, then slowly spoke, "3.1 billion and ten million."

As these words were spoken, the entire venue fell into dead silence. Everyone's gaze was focused on the box where Yu Qingtan was seated, disbelieving that she had raised the bid by such a slight margin. It was a blatant provocation to Demon Saint Yuan Hong.

From the box of Demon Saint Yuan Hong came hurried breathing; evidently, he was also infuriated by this unexpected bid. "You! This is too much! 3.2 billion!"

"3.2 billion and ten million."

"Good, very good. I'll remember you," came Demon Saint Yuan Hong's voice, filled with barely concealed anger. However, Yu Qingtan paid no heed to his threat.

With auctioneer Yun Shu's declaration of "sold," Yu Qingtan won the Coiling Dragon Stick. When a Body Integration stage male Cultivator from the Hundred Treasures Pavilion brought the Coiling Dragon Stick to Yu Qingtan's box, Yu Qingtan directly took out the Immortal Clothes known as the Red Bird Mysterious Tent, which she had acquired from Shunsheng Saint Venerable of the Joyful Demon Sect.

"I don't have that many Immortal Crystals on me. I plan to sell this piece of Immortal Artifact to Hundred Treasures Pavilion. What do you think is a fair price?" Yu Qingtan said.

The other party took it and after careful examination, offered a price of forty billion Immortal Crystals.

"The quote is reasonable." Although the Coiling Dragon Stick was also an Immortal Artifact, its Artifact Spirit was dormant, and it was mainly suitable only for those of Body Cultivation, so its value could not compare to the Red Bird Mysterious Tent.

Yu Qingtan used her redundant Red Bird Mysterious Tent to trade for a Coiling Dragon Stick, and she also gained nearly eight hundred million extra Immortal Crystals. Overall, she was fairly satisfied.

"The ninety-seventh item up for auction is a piece of Immortal Clothes, the Cloudflow Brocade Skirt. The starting bid is one billion Immortal Crystals, with each bid not to be lower than fifty million Immortal Crystals." At this time, Saint Venerable Yun Shu had begun the auction for the next item.

To Qingtan's delight, it was a complete Immortal Artifact, and a defensive one at that, not to mention extremely beautiful.

Unfortunately, she didn't have enough Immortal Crystals and could only watch from the sidelines. In the end, the Immortal Clothes were acquired by Xiang Yu Saint Venerable of the Red Dust Demon Sect for 5.3 billion Immortal Crystals.

The ninety-eighth item up for auction was a Fire Spirit, which is to say, a Seventh Stage Spiritual Fire that had already developed sentience. It could greatly assist Cultivators in mastering the Principle of Fire.

The ninety-ninth item was a Chaos Divine Crystal, highly effective for Demon Saints advancing to Demon Emperor status or Dao Integration Stage Body Cultivators breaking through to the Transcendance Tribulation Stage.

"Ladies and Gentlemen, the final and special highlight of the auction is the location of the Netherworld Phoenix Ancient Land." Saint Venerable Yun Shu, with a smiling face from the successful sales, announced the last item for auction.

Upon this announcement, the entire auction hall once again erupted into excitement. Even those usually composed and worldly-wise Body Integration Saint Venerables showed shock on their faces, with some even standing up.

The Netherworld Phoenix Ancient Land, a secret realm that almost only existed in legends, contained opportunities that could drive any cultivator pursuing eternal life and eager for breakthroughs insane.

"What? News about the Netherworld Phoenix Ancient Land? How is that possible?"

"Could it be that a cultivator has really found the long-lost ancestral land of the Netherworld Phoenix Clan?"

"Is this news for real? Why doesn't the person who obtained the information explore it themselves?" A woman's voice came from a private room, at the same time, a scorching presence could be felt throughout the venue.

"Feng Xuan Demon Saint of the Fire Phoenix Clan, this news has been consigned for auction by someone else, but after detailed scrutiny by the Hundred Treasures Pavilion and the Heavenly Strategy Pavilion, and multiple verifications of the source of this information, we ensured its authenticity is up to ninety percent.

The person who received the information doesn't go to explore it themselves, naturally, because they lack the strength. According to the information, the location of the Netherworld Phoenix Ancient Land is guarded by an Eighth Stage Array.

This news will be auctioned in ten copies, each with a starting bid of one billion Immortal Crystals, with each increment not less than ten million Immortal Crystals. Before the auction ends, no one is allowed to leave the venue. If you think the news is fake, you can choose not to bid. Now, let's start the auction for the first copy!" Yun Shu Saint Venerable said.

"One and a half billion Immortal Crystals!" A composed male voice came from a high-level private room, directly raising the bid by five hundred million Immortal Crystals, obviously wanting to secure the first copy of the news at a comparatively low price.

"Two billion!" Unexpectedly, Feng Xuan Demon Saint was not to be outdone. Her voice carried an undeniable resolve, clearly determined to win the information at all costs.

No one else bid, after all, there were still nine copies left.

Quickly, the auction for the second piece of information began. Since Feng Xuan Demon Saint had secured the information without questioning its validity, it convinced the rest even more of the accuracy of the information. The contest for the second piece was still fierce, and it was eventually won by Yue Gang Saint Venerable of the Primordial Demon Sect for a price of one billion and nine hundred million.

Subsequently, the remaining eight pieces of information were separately won by eight distinguished guests in private rooms, mostly representing powerful Emperor Sovereign Level Forces, with prices all above one and a half billion.

It could be said that the persons who got this information made a killing from it.

Yu Qingtan observed the proceedings with a detached eye, yet her heart was anything but calm. Her destination was the Netherworld Phoenix Ancient Land, and she hadn't expected that information about it would be auctioned here.

Yu Qingtan knew that such fanfare meant that more than half of the Emperor Sovereign Level Forces in the Central Domain would receive this news, and the Cultivation World of the Central Domain would inevitably be plunged into dispute because of it.

After the auction ended, Yu Qingtan temporarily stayed in Swallowing Moon Immortal City. Indeed, she received news of intense battles happening near the Immortal City almost every day.

It was only a month later that Yu Qingtan left Swallowing Moon Immortal City, continuing on the road directed by the map.

However, she had already been marked.

Fifty thousand miles north of Swallowing Moon Immortal City, in the high sky, Yu Qingtan was practicing Sky Soaring Flight when suddenly four imposing figures appeared in front of her.

"Human girl, don't think that we can't find you just because you've changed your appearance. You dared to vie for a treasure with this Demon Saint, today you are certain to die!" The four figures surrounded Yu Qingtan, among them, a burly man in a yellow robe spoke fiercely.

"So it's Demon Saint Yuan Hong from the Titan Giant Ape Clan, with no money to compete with me for the Coiling Dragon Stick, you've decided to use brute force instead, and fearing you can't win, you even called three others for help?" Yu Qingtan said unperturbed.

She was not keen on causing trouble, so she only left Swallowing Moon Immortal City after staying for a month, and she hadn't concealed herself too much; otherwise, with her Innate Divine Ability, surely no one could have found her.

"Hmph, they are Chen Jie Demon Saint from the Huangmi Clan, Jun Ling Demon Saint from the Bear Monkey Clan, and Hao Yang Demon Saint from the White Ape Clan. To deal with you, a Seventh Stage Body Cultivator, I alone am enough. They are just here to help me press the formation to prevent you from escaping," Yuan Hong Demon Saint snorted coldly.
