Chapter 1662 - Calculations
*****“Three hundred billion dollars, in addition to an A-rank cultivation technique.”The words were delivered so casually that, for a fraction of a second, nobody seemed to understand what they had just heard.Then the entire auction house fell silent so profoundly that the massive cruise ship might as well have stopped moving.Hundreds of people stared at Xavier, their expressions gradually transforming from disbelief into utter bewilderment.An A-rank cultivation technique?Those words carried a weight entirely different from money and every other item that had been mentioned in this auction.Money could be earned, resources could be accumulated, and even powerful treasures could occasionally be discovered through luck.But an A-rank cultivation technique?That was something else entirely.Techniques of that level were among the most fiercely guarded and gatekeeping secrets in the world.Only a handful of powerful factions possessed them, and those factions treated their technique
Chapter 1661
*****“$10 billion!”“$20 billion!”The bidding escalated so rapidly that nearly everyone in the Lower Realm felt their hearts climb into their throats.The numbers being shouted from the Upper Realm had long since passed the point where ordinary cultivators could comprehend them. Ten billion, twenty billion, thirty billion... each figure sounded more ridiculous than the last, yet the people calling them out spoke as though they were discussing the price of lunch.What shocked everyone even more, however, was not the astronomical prices themselves. They already knew the people occupying the Upper Realm possessed terrifying financial power, and after witnessing the earlier bidding, nobody could honestly pretend otherwise.What truly stunned them was Xavier.He was still keeping up.Every time someone raised the price, another bid came from Xavier. Whenever the Upper Realm pushed the figure higher, he calmly pushed it higher still, showing absolutely no indication that his financial res
Chapter 1660 – Mistress Ayra’s Revelation
*****The people in the Upper Realm gradually abandoned all restraint.Billions of dollars were thrown into the auction as casually as though they were discussing thousands.Every time someone raised the price, another representative answered. The expressions behind the windows grew increasingly solemn, and the atmosphere became so tense that it seemed a single wrong word could ignite a war.Meanwhile, the people in the Lower Realm could only sit there and stare.Their minds struggled to process what they were witnessing.Billions.Actual billions.And these people were throwing the money around as though they were buying vegetables from a roadside market.One Lower Realm guest stared at the Upper Realm windows with his mouth slightly open.‘Do these people print money?’Another secretly swallowed.‘At this rate, I could sell everything I own and still not qualify to raise a card.’Yet the auction continued.Amid all of it, Xavier looked completely detached from the madness surroundin
Chapter 1659 – Billion-Dollars Bids
*****No one had anticipated the auctioneer’s words.Discovering a teleportation portal connected to an ancient cultivation ruin was already extraordinarily difficult.Discovering one that led to a ruin at least a thousand years old was even more astonishing.But finding an ancient ruin whose spiritual formations had remained active for centuries pushed the discovery into an entirely different realm.The probability of stumbling upon such a place was almost nonexistent.And even if someone were fortunate enough to discover it, why would they announce it to others?Why would they tell people they trusted?And more importantly, why in the world would they put such a discovery up for auction?Anyone with half a brain would hide the information, investigate the ruin privately, and monopolize whatever treasures remained inside.Yet the Celestial Pearl was doing the exact opposite.“What’s the catch?”The casual question suddenly came from one of the Upper Realm chambers.Everyone recognize
Chapter 1658 – The Final Item II
*****“What?!”“A private island?”The reaction was completely different from before.Some of them had initially assumed that the document itself contained some hidden secret or extraordinary opportunity. After all, why would the Celestial Pearl build so much anticipation around a simple piece of paper?But an ownership document for a private island?Inside one of the private chambers, an elderly A-rank fighter who had been reclining lazily on a throne-like chair finally sat forward.He had spent most of the auction looking like an emperor who had merely tolerated the existence of everyone else in the room.Now, however, his brows had drawn together.He slowly turned his gaze toward the man standing beside him.“Is this the so-called information?”His voice was too calm, so much so that the right-hand man beside him, an upper B-rank fighter, immediately felt his heart sink.“Our… our intelligence indicated that this opportunity was priceless,” he stammered.His back was already covere
Chapter 1657 – The Final Item
*****“There is only one item remaining.”The auctioneer’s voice echoed throughout the hall once again, soft, calm, and devoid of emotion.Yet this time, something beneath that composure was different. There was a weight to her words that immediately caught the attention of everyone in the auction house.She paused for a moment before continuing.“This is also the reason many of the VIP guests traveled thousands of miles to board the Celestial Pearl.”The moment those words fell, the atmosphere changed.The cultivators in the Lower Realm exchanged puzzled looks. A few furrowed their brows, while others leaned toward the stage in confusion.Most of them had assumed the wealthy and powerful people from the Upper Realm had simply come for the auction's rare treasures. After all, the items sold tonight had already been extraordinary enough to justify an expensive journey.But if the auctioneer was saying there was a specific reason so many of those people had traveled such a long distance
