BTTH: Starting With Auctioning Green Lotus Core Flame

The Green Lotus Core Flame Enters The Stage



The price skyrocketed as the experts from the Jia Ma Empire united to prevent the Chu Yun Empire from winning the bid.

The relationship between the Chu Yun Empire and the Jia Ma Empire were like cat and dog. The border skirmishes over territory between the two Empires couldn't be counted on fingers. Naturally, they wouldn't allow this Dou Technique fall into their enemy hands!

Yun Yun's gaze was indifferent.

This matter should be left to the Jia Ma's royal family to handle. There was no need for her to spend nearly ten million to bid for this Earth-rank Dou Technique.

Although Earth-rank Dou Techniques were precious, they weren't rare. Which sect didn't have a few Earth-rank Dou Techniques?

She decided to leave this Dou Technique to others to compete for.

Sipping her hot tea, she tasted its flavor and couldn't help but linger on the clear cup, murmuring, "Good tea, is this unique to Heaven Ascending Pavilion?"

"Ten million gold coins!" A strong expert from the Chu Yun Empire was completely furious, jumping up from his chair without any regard for his dignity as a Dou Emperor expert.

"Jia Xingtian, you bunch, keep bidding if you dare!"

Jia Xingtian looked solemn, wanting to continue bidding but was interrupted by Nalan Jie beside him. "That's enough. The price has already exceeded our expectations. If we continue, this Earth-rank Dou Technique won't be worth a shot."

"Are we just going to watch this Dou Technique fall into those bastards' hand?" Jia Xingtian grunted; his voice laced with unwillingness.

Nalan Jie just shook his head helplessly. He had no better solution. At this point, there was nothing else they could do. Moreover, this was only the second auction item; spending a large amount of gold coins now wasn't wise.

Besides, they didn't bring that much gold with them. They came in a hurry, hoping to test the waters, and only had a little over ten million gold coins. If they spent it all now, they wouldn't be able to continue bidding on next items.

After careful consideration, Jia Xingtian decided to let the Dou Emperor from the Chu Yun Empire have this Earth-rank mid-level Dou Technique. Whether he could leave the Magic Beast Mountain Range alive was another matter.

In the end, the expert from the Chu Yun Empire won the bid for the Earth-rank mid-level Dou Technique at the cost of ten million gold coins.

But it was obvious without even looking that the Dou Emperor's face was pale and grim. His bulging veins made his expression looked ferocious, clearly indicating he had acted impulsively.

"Congratulations to the Dou Emperor from the Chu Yun Empire for winning the mid-level Earth-rank Dou Technique!"

"Hmph!"

The Dou Empire angrily threw down his embroidered robe, his fierce and venomous look never fading. He would remember today's events and ensure the Jia Ma Empire paid a heavy price in the future!

In a room on the fourth floor.

Li Xiao was munching on freshly picked fruit, watching the auction below with great interest. A joyful smile spread across his face. He never expected that a trivial Earth-rank Dou Technique could fetch such a sky-high price of ten million gold coins. It was truly astonishing.

Today's auction had already given him such a big surprise. If it was anyone else, they would have already burst out laughing from joy.

Alas, as the respected Pavilion Master, he had an image to uphold.

Rubbing his slightly sore cheeks due to the incessant smiles, he then stretched his muscles. He still had three more Earth-rank Dou Techniques, all obtained from the Amethyst Winged Lion King and three rank five magical beasts. If they could each be auctioned for ten million gold coins, he might laugh even in his dreams.

He wondered what rewards the system would give him after the auction. Hopefully, it would directly elevate his realm. Staying as a three-star Dou Fighter wasn't ideal.

He was a man who would become a Dou God!

"Let's set a small goal first: break through to Dou God within ten years! It shouldn't be a problem," Li Xiao murmured to himself.

"Pavilion Master, can we start bidding on the third item now?" Niu Meng asked, bowing slightly with his hands behind his back.

"Go ahead."

Li Xiao shrugged, wondering if the next item would bring him another big profit.

The auction continued, showcasing one fine item after another, with exclamations of surprise echoing now and then. As more precious items appeared, the atmosphere grew increasingly lively.

Many people regretted not bringing more gold coins. They were unable to bid for the items they'd fancied with such insufficient fund.

Truly, a lack of wealth could stump even the greatest hero!

Soon, the final auction item drew everyone's attention. The edges of the crystal platform emitted a cracking sound, and a special barrier quietly enveloped the auction stage. Even above the crystal platform, a terrifying vortex spread.

"Everyone, don't panic. Due to the danger of this item, we at Heaven Ascending Pavilion have specially created this vortex to suppress it."

"But still, be cautious and avoid approaching the auction stage. This item has the power to destroy the heavens and the earth."

At these words, the hall was in an uproar!

Destroy the heavens and the earth?

What kind of item is that?

Linglong's gaze was calm. As she brought her hands together, an astonishing aura instantly enveloped the entire hall.

A cluster of blue flames suddenly appeared before everyone. As the flames emerged, the temperature within Heaven Ascending Pavilion soared, making people feel an urge to remove their clothes.

If not for the vortex blocking the heat, everyone on the first floor would have been incinerated by the energy of this peculiar flame.

Even the Dou Emperor experts didn't dare touch it, let alone the Dou King and Dou Spirit.

Linglong calmly extended a finger, and her ice-blue Dou Qi fused with the flames, reducing the temperature in the hall.

Pill King Gu He jumped from his chair, unable to contain his excitement. Upon seeing the flames, he nearly went mad with desire.

Even the surrounding Dou Emperor experts cast greedy glances. This was something that drove alchemists crazy. How did Heaven Ascending Pavilion get their hands on such a thing?

In the Dou Qi Continent, there existed a few rare heavenly flames. These might be the sparks carried by meteors or the deep-seated flames of volcanoes, forged over thousands of years.

These Heavenly Flames were far more powerful than those formed by Dou Qi and could enhance the potency of elixirs.

They were also the dream of every alchemist. Obtaining such a flame would significantly impact their pill-making process, even improving the quality of elixirs and enabling the crafting of higher-level pills.

Many alchemists spent their entire lives searching for a heavenly flame, often without success. To control a heavenly flame, one had to integrate it into their body.

But these flames were wild and destructive. Even the toughest metals couldn't withstand their burning, let alone the fragile human body, which would undoubtedly lead to self-immolation.

"The green flame shaped like a lotus and as intense as a volcano. If I'm not mistaken, this should be the 19th ranked on the Heavenly Flame List: The Green Lotus Core Flame!"

Gu He's breath quickened; his eyes filled with greed. "The Green Lotus Core Flame! I can't believe Heaven Ascending Pavilion is auctioning such a treasure!!"
