Swallowing the Stars: Eternal Glory

Chapter 95 Golden Leaves of the Ancient Tree of Kras (Part 2)

The bidding for 8000 mixed units immediately deterred most of the competitors.

After all, the immortals who came to participate in the auction were all immortal military lords, and there weren't many who could actually come up with so much cash.

"8000 Hunyuan! Is there anything higher?"

Seeing that no one else was bidding, Barto shouted loudly.

Although 8000 mixed units have reached the organizer's expected price, it would be possible to sell at a higher price.

As the auctioneer, his prize money would undoubtedly be much more substantial.

"8100 Hunyuan!"

Three seconds later, a new high price appeared.

Lu Jin entered the price again, and the latest bid displayed on the big screen reached 8888 mixed units.

This time, no one made any further bids.

The Golden Leaf only temporarily enhances affinity with higher-level laws, and at this price, it's no longer worth the gamble.

After all, with just one golden leaf from the Kras Ancient Tree, the probability of them breaking through the bottleneck of understanding the laws is extremely low; it's practically a wasted effort.

"Everyone, 8888 mixed units, is there anything higher?"

“倒计时10、93、2、1！恭喜编号lus256941的客人，你拍下了珍贵无比的克拉斯古树黄金叶一片。”

Barto announced loudly.

At the same time, a line of text appeared on the screen of the black token in Lu Jin's hand.

—Congratulations, customer with ID lus256941, you have won a single golden leaf from the Kras Ancient Tree. Please sign the contract and make payment within 24 hours after the auction ends.

'Fatty, sign the contract and pay directly. Delivery location is set at Azure Star Castle.'

Lu Jin gave the instructions to Fatty.

Lu Jin and Luo Feng arrived on Bilan Star long before the auction began, and they will be able to return to Earth after receiving the goods.

"Yes, Master."

Fatty responded.

The auction continued, but the final items were not as expensive as the Kras Ancient Tree Golden Leaf, though they still sold for more than 1 Mixed Yuan Unit.

Before long, another new final item was put up for auction.

"Next item to be auctioned—the golden apple!"

"Golden Apple temporarily and significantly increases affinity with the fundamental laws of metal, and is still effective even for those favored by the fundamental laws of metal."

"The starting price remains at 0 Mixed Yuan units!"

Barto shouted.

At the same time, a pure gold apple image appeared on the big screen, as if it were cast from gold.

After a bidding.

“150混元单位，倒计时10、93、2、1！恭喜编号ksd568942的客人，你获得了这颗金苹果！”

Barto shouted the announcement.

Since the Golden Apple can only increase affinity with the lower-level metal elemental laws, and its effect is only temporary, its value is not very high.

'Tsk~, back to square one.'

After instructing Babata to sign the contract and transfer the funds, Luo Feng sighed to himself.

The seat number ksd568942 is Luo Feng's seat number.

He had limited funds. He had acquired a batch of treasures in the realm within a realm of Canglan Star and entrusted the Cosmic Galaxy Bank to sell them, which earned him 11 Hunyuan units of funds.

Later, using the five-star account left behind by the deceased teacher Hu Yanbo, he helped Lu Jin sell three immortal divine weapons.

His generous cousin gave him a tip of 109 Mixed Yuan Units, bringing the total to around 120 Mixed Yuan Units.

His younger brother, Luo Hua, was a shrewd investor. After entrusting some of his funds to Luo Hua for investment, his savings had steadily increased over the past two years. However, after deducting the expenses from bidding on treasures such as the Divine Weapon and the 150 Chaos Units of the Golden Apple, his funds had been completely depleted, leaving him with only a little over one trillion Universe Coins in his bank account.

Dozens more items were sold at auction.

During this period, Lu Jin made another bid, purchasing an E7-grade RH-86 series laser gun for 2500 mixed units.

Time passed, and the auction came to an end.

"The next item up for auction is even rarer and more unusual."

"Even at auctions in various cosmic kingdoms, it's extremely rare to see such an item—the skin of a member of the Demon Slayer Clan!"

"Yes, it's the skin of a member of the Demon Slayer Clan. You heard me right."

"The incomplete Demon Slayer skin is now up for auction, starting at 0!"

Barto shouted the announcement.

Although the Demon Slayer skin was badly damaged, it still had value, and the bidding price quickly exceeded 2 Mixed Yuan Units.

Lu Jin was watching the excitement when Fatty's voice rang in his mind: "Master, Luo Feng sent a private message saying he hopes you can help him bid on this Demon Slayer skin. He'll pay me back later when he has the money."

Unlike the previous 50 batches of ordinary auction items, the final 100 items cannot be accessed through a black token to check the auction list.

Having emptied his savings, Luo Feng could no longer afford the Demon Slayer skin, even though it was incomplete and its value had been greatly reduced.

Transfer 100 units of Hunyuan to Luo Feng so he can buy them himself. Add a note: "For our cousin's sake, I won't charge him interest."

Lu Jin raised an eyebrow and gave the order.

"Yes, Master."

Fatty responded immediately and transferred 100 Mixed Yuan Units to Luo Feng's Cosmic Galaxy Bank account.

Soon, the loan of 100 Mixed Yuan Units arrived in Luo Feng's account, and he regained his confidence.

Seeing the bidding for the Demon Slayer skin gradually rise to 3 Mixed Yuan Units, Luo Feng directly raised the bid to 4 Mixed Yuan Units.

"4 Mixed Yuan Units, is there a higher price?"

"Three seconds to go, 3, 2, 1!"

"Congratulations to guest ID ksd568942, you have obtained the incomplete skin of a member of the Demon Slayer Clan."

With Barto's announcement, Luo Feng successfully acquired the Demon Slayer skin.

"Ladies and gentlemen, so far in this auction, 99 items have been auctioned off in the final auction, and only one final item remains."

"."

"I solemnly announce that the final auction item is—one spot for a World Lord-level Initial Universe Enlightenment Cultivation!"

"."

After a wealthy Realm Lord bid 37000 Chaos Units for a Realm Lord-level Initial Universe Enlightenment slot, the following event occurred.

This year's Elementary Qianwu Auction has officially concluded.

'Tsk~, as expected, even with money, there's nothing to spend.'

As Lu Jin left the auction hall, he sighed to himself.

Two years ago, after acquiring three immortal divine weapons, Lu Jin has now plundered nine more F-grade immortal divine weapons of unknown value from his slaves.

Given that he had enough money in his bank account, Lu Jin did not make any further moves.

He planned to sell the divine weapons he had accumulated to the acquisition department of Virtual Universe Company after he became a core member of the company.

By selling divine weapons as a core member of the Virtual Universe Company, he will receive not just Primal Chaos Units, but internal points from the Virtual Universe Company.

For members of the Virtual Universe Company who have not reached the Immortal level and cannot exchange Primal Units for Points at a 1:1 ratio, Points are far more valuable than Primal Units.

After all, aside from a few forbidden items and treasures of an excessively high level, the Virtual Universe Company's points can buy almost any resource.
