Soul Land V: Rebirth of Tang San-Chapter 952 - 950: Seize the Ice Sealed Throne?
Chapter 952: Chapter 950: Seize the Ice Sealed Throne?
The starting bid for the Ice Sealed Throne was not as high as that of the Ephemeral Sunflower, but that does not mean that this divine tool is inferior to the Ephemeral Sunflower. One reason is that the Ephemeral Sunflower itself has a wider range of applications and can be used by more races, and another reason is due to the gap between the races.
How could the Ice Maiden Clan compare to the Sunflower Spirit Clan? The value of the Ice Sealed Throne is actually supposed to be above that of the Ephemeral Sunflower, especially when their attributes align.
Staring at the Ice Sealed Throne on the crystal screen in front of him, Tang San even felt a hint of sadness, as if the throne carried the Ice Maiden Clan’s helplessness and sorrow.
With a sigh, Tang San pressed the button next to him.
“VIP Room No.8, nine hundred Purple Crystal Coins.” Soon, the auctioneer announced the bid.
Seeing Tang San’s bid, the Elders did not say anything, as no one would question Tang San. Only Jin Miaosen asked puzzledly, “Brother, why? It’s of the ice attribute, what use do we have for it?”
Tang San replied, “It has its unique uses.”
Such elemental divine tools were, in fact, needed by him, including the previous Ephemeral Sunflower. But he also couldn’t be wasteful. Especially since the Undying Great Demon Emperor had clearly bought the previous item for Pretty Girl’s use, he couldn’t get involved. This Ice Sealed Throne, however, was essential for him to have.
With this divine tool, not only could it enhance the strength of his eldest apprentice brother and purify his bloodline, but it could also help stabilize a significant area of the Ice Element Sea for Humans, which is beneficial for Elemental Awakening.
Ordinary bidders didn’t know who was in VIP Room No.8, just that it was one of the city leaders. But the powerhouses knew. It was surprising to them that the Blue Golden Tree Clan suddenly made a move for the Ice Sealed Throne. What did the Blue Golden Tree Clan need an ice attribute divine tool for?
However, the bidding continued.
Clearly, Tang San was not the only one in need of an ice attribute divine tool; the eager powerhouses immediately started bidding.
The Ice Sealed Throne might even be the strongest of all ice attribute divine tools on the Demon Monster Continent, and although there aren’t any particularly powerful races with ice attributes, both the Phoenix Clan and the Dragon Clan exist with corresponding attributes.
Thus, bids were quickly announced.
But compared to the previous bidding for the Ephemeral Sunflower, the price increase was much more moderate this time, generally increasing by ten Purple Crystal Coins at a time.
“Nine hundred and sixty Purple Crystal Coins.”
“Nine hundred and eighty Purple Crystal Coins.”
“One thousand two hundred and ten Purple Crystal Coins.”
“VIP Room No.8, one thousand five hundred Purple Crystal Coins.”
As Tang San quoted a new price, the whole room fell into a brief silence. He directly increased the bid by more than two hundred Purple Crystal Coins, reaching as much as one thousand five hundred Purple Crystal Coins.
Considering the value of the Ice Sealed Throne, it’s worth this price. However, the category of ice attribute is still smaller. If it were a fire attribute, the price would definitely be more exaggerated.
“VIP Room No.10, one thousand five hundred and ten Purple Crystal Coins.” The Dragon Clan’s VIP room announced a bid. But compared to the previous respect for the Undying Great Demon Emperor, adding only ten Purple Crystal Coins seemed somewhat provocative.
“VIP Room No.8, two thousand Purple Crystal Coins.” The room fell silent again. Adding five hundred? What in the world? Even at a super auction, are such price increments normal?
VIP Room No.10.
“Are they insane? Has the Blue Golden Tree Clan lost their minds? Going straight to two thousand?” Tang Mohuang from the Fire Dragon Clan shouted loudly. His emotions were genuinely excited because the Ephemeral Sunflower had been secured by him for his own use. With this item, he believed his strength in the coming battle for the throne would see a significant boost.

Xu Anyu was frowning, standing next to him was a tall man also with a furrowed brow, “Brother Xu, the Ice Sealed Throne is a must-have for me. Ice attribute divine tools are rare anyway. This divine tool won’t realize its true potential in hands of the Ice Maiden Clan.”
Xu Anyu spoke in a deep voice, “There are only two possibilities for their price increase. One is that they really have the backing, with a profound backing. The other is that they are deliberately making us pay more. Two thousand Purple Crystal Coins, it’s already a bit beyond the intrinsic value of the Ice Sealed Throne, isn’t it?”
The tall man shook his head, “Not for me. I raised the bid.” He didn’t wait for Xu Anyu to speak and directly pressed the button.
“Tenth VIP Room, two thousand and ten Purple Crystal Coins.”
Without a doubt, to other bidders, it seemed like Room Ten was taking on Room Eight. And after this price point, other competitors had also withdrawn from the bidding. Although ice attribute divine tools are desirable, not many could afford this price.
Dragon Clan in VIP Room No.10 was obviously one of them. Why the Blue Golden Tree Clan from VIP Room No.8 joined the bidding was hard to say.
“VIP Room No.8, two thousand five hundred Purple Crystal Coins.” The auctioneer’s voice raised a few notches when announcing this price.
Even when the Undying Great Demon Emperor participated in the bidding earlier, the bids were not this aggressive! And right now, VIP Room No.8 was increasing by five hundred. Those were Purple Crystal Coins! Five hundred themselves could be worth an ordinary divine tool.
“Damn it!” Inside Room Ten, the ice dragon slammed the table.
“Have they gone mad? I will go and see,” said Tang Mohuang as he stood up swiftly.
“Sit down!” Xu Anyu commanded sternly, “Do you want all races to laugh at us? When will you ever change this impulsive behavior? Wasn’t it enough to have offended the Peacock Demon Clan?” His tone carried a hint of severity.
Tang Mohuang shrank his head back, not daring to make a sound, and sat down again.
Xu Anyu then looked at his ice dragon companion, “They are clearly jacking up the price. This is likely a strategy from Rihchen Empire, intending to use the previous items to deplete our funds. You need to think thrice.”
The ice dragon’s eyebrows were tightly knit. Two thousand Purple Crystal Coins he could still bear, barely without surpassing the value of the divine tool itself. But two thousand five hundred was too expensive. Although he himself was also a rank 11 powerhouse, ice dragons were not abundant in the Dragon Clan and this price was already stretching him thin. Especially if the opponent was merely jacking up the price, if he continued to follow, he would indeed be a big fool.
“Two thousand five hundred Purple Crystal Coins, any more bids?” The voice came from outside the auction stage. This price of two thousand five already exceeded what was initially anticipated for the Ice Sealed Throne at the grand auction. Initially, it was predicted to be around two thousand, owing to the auction’s uniqueness. But unexpectedly, there was a bid reaching as high as two thousand five hundred.
The ice dragon couldn’t help but say to Xu Anyu, “Brother Xu, could you possibly…”
Before he finished speaking, Xu Anyu nodded, “If you’re truly determined, I can lend it to you.”
The ice dragon took a deep breath.
From outside came the voice, “Two thousand five hundred, the first time.”
The ice dragon glanced at Xu Anyu, “Brother Xu, I’d be indebted to you. I really need this divine tool to enhance my strength.”
“Alright,” Xu Anyu somewhat helplessly said, “But if the opposing side raises significantly again, I would advise you not to buy it. We still need to reserve funds for later.”
“Two thousand five hundred, the second time.” The voice came again from outside.
At this moment, the ice dragon could no longer care about others, he came beside Xu Anyu and rapidly pressed the numbers on the button. He of course only added ten Purple Crystal Coins. Now, it was not about irritating Tang San anymore, but truly because he was financially tight!
He rapidly pressed the button, fearing that the third call would be announced from outside.
