Bidding Fiercely for Mid-level Earth-rank Dou Technique

Gu He crossed his arms, a glint of disdain flashing in his eyes. This Purple Spirit Crystal could only become his, and no one could snatch it from his hand!

In a private box on the second floor, Yun Yun bit her small, pink lips and instinctively raised her right hand. She also wanted this Purple Spirit Crystal. Yanran's impulsiveness had led to a three-year agreement, and as her teacher, Yun Yun of course could not sit idly by. Now that she had finally encountered it, she had to obtain it no matter what.

"450,000 gold coins."

Gu He nearly exploded with rage. Someone dared to compete with him for the Purple Spirit Crystal? He wanted to see who had the audacity to go against him.

But, when he saw the one who made the bid in the room across was Yun Yun, his fury diminished somewhat.

Everyone knew that Gu He had feeling for Yun Yun. It was basically love at the first sight.

Gu He adjusted his clothes and said in a gentle tone, "Sect Master Yun is also interested in this Purple Spirit Crystal?"

"Yes," Yun Yun nodded slightly. "This Purple Spirit Crystal is very useful to me. I hope Pill King can give me some face, and I will owe you a favor."

Gu He lowered his gaze slightly. How could he snatch this crystal from the woman he loved so dearly?

Out of his affection for her, Gu He resolutely decided to let Yun Yun have the Purple Spirit Crystal.

Yun Yun nodded gratefully towards him. "Thank you, Pill King. I hope you can help me refine a pill in the future."

Gu He had a strange expression, feeling something was off, but he couldn't pinpoint it. Soon, he realized that any effort to make Yun Yun happy was worth it.

Linglong looked around and asked, "450,000 gold coins. Does anyone else wish to bid?"

The crowd shook their heads. Although they could afford 450,000 gold coins, offending the Misty Cloud Sect over this seemed not worth the trouble.

"450,000 going once!"

"450,000 going twice!"

Although Linglong was satisfied with this price, she hoped for more since it was an item from the pavilion master. However, seeing no one else was willing to bid, she struck the gavel, "450,000 gold coins, sold!"

"Let us congratulate Yun Yun, Sect Master of Misty Cloud Sect in the room no.1, for winning the Purple Spirit Crystal at 450,000 gold coins."

Yun Yun nodded elegantly.

The second auction item became the focus of everyone's attention. They were curious about what it would be, hoping it would be even more precious than the Purple Spirit Crystal.

Sure enough, the next item was a strange scroll, enveloped in a hazy blue fog, shrouding its secrets.

"This is a mid-level Earth-rank Dou technique, Three Thousand Shadow Clone!" Linglong announced softly. "Mastering this technique allows one to create three thousand shadow clones, gaining a critical advantage in battle. Before the enemy can discover your true body, you can seize the opportunity to eliminate them!"

"What? Such a unique Dou technique?!"

The auction hall erupted in excitement, everyone focusing intently forward. Their gazes were as fiery as scorching sun.

It was truly unexpected. No one in their wildest dream could imagine that the Heaven Ascending Pavilion would even putting mid-level Earth Dou technique in their auction.

Generally, only Dou Emperor experts and above were qualified to possess such a high-level technique. For those below that level, acquiring such techniques was far too costly and risky.

"My heavens, is this the strength of the Heaven Ascending Pavilion? Such an item appearing as the second item—it's so terrifying."

The crowds were naturally awestricken.

"Senior, is this really a mid-level Earth-rank Dou technique? Why is it being auctioned second? Doesn't it mean that even more valuable items are coming next?" someone asked, perplexed.

Linglong replied, her voice was flat without wavering in the slightest. "But of course. Mid-level Earth-rank Dou techniques are as common as dirt here. It can't be placed last."

The crowd gasped in astonishment.

Such bold words! Even the most powerful factions in Central Plains wouldn't have gut to brag like that!

What was the true origin of the Heaven Ascending Pavilion? Where was the pavilion master, and why hadn't he shown himself?

"The starting bid is 800,000 gold coins. Please, place your bids."

"I bid 850,000 gold coins," someone called out.

"900,000 gold coins!"

"1 million gold coins!"

The price quickly soared to a million, causing a commotion in the auction house.

Jia Xingtian naturally wouldn't hold back. Such a powerful techniques were rare finds. He would surely regret it if he missed this item.

Other Dou Emperors also jumped into the bidding war. For them, a mid-tier earth-level technique was enticing even at the peak of the Dou Emperor level. If mastered, the ability to create three thousand shadow clones would be a deadly weapon.

"5 million gold coins!"

A black-clad Dou Emperor decisively raised the bid, increasing the price fivefold.

The auction house buzzed with noise.

"Five million at once, his family must own a gold mine!"

"Looks like this technique will eventually fall into the hand of powerful and wealthy people."

"That's true."

In one of the rooms on the second floor, a woman in plain clothes smirked, "Since everyone is so interested, I'll join in the fun."

"5.2 million."

The Dou Emperor from the Chu Yun Empire trembled in anger and glare coldly at the women in the sixth box, his eyes filled with murderous intent.

"Sky Serpent Mansion, I didn't expect you to be here too."

"Of course," the Sky Serpent Mansion's Dou Emperor, Lu Man, shrugged her shoulder and show him a playful smile. "We were personally invited by the Heaven Ascending Pavilion. How could we refuse?"

"You!"

The Chu Yun Empire's Dou Emperor's expression turned ugly. If these people were determined to compete, he wouldn't hold back.

"8 million!"

As a Dou Emperor, he had vast resources, and backing him was the entire Chu Yun Empire. Bringing this technique back would surely earn him favor with the Emperor, possibly even permission to train in it himself.

However, the powerhouses of the Jia Ma Empire would never allow such a precious Dou technique to fall into the hands of the Chu Yun Empire.
