Chapter 2035: Chapter 2035: Ancient Treasure

As the elder’s voice fell.

The sound of bidding could be heard coming from below, one after another in a rush.

"One million two hundred thousand!"

"One million five hundred thousand!"

"One million eight hundred thousand!"

"..."

The intensity of the magic treasure auction far surpassed that of the Pill Medicine auction.

Each magic treasure was quickly auctioned off at astronomical prices.

As the ninth magic treasure was sold for a sky-high price of five million, many people showed dismayed expressions.

Five million Spirit Stones had already exceeded the wealth of most Divinity Transformation Realm experts.

The auction had reached a point where the majority of people had already lost the opportunity to compete.

At this moment, Master Chi, with a smile, handed the ninth auction item to the bidder.

Immediately afterward, he gestured for everyone to be quiet.

Seeing Master Chi suddenly adopting such a formal posture, all the people quieted down, staring intently at him.

Could it be that the three rare treasures were about to appear?

It couldn’t be this soon, could it?

Just as everyone was in a state of uncertainty, Master Chi touched the Storage Ring, and a broken blade appeared on the high platform.

When this broken blade appeared, everyone was dumbfounded.

What does this mean?

Is this... also an auction item?

A broken knife?

Everyone showed puzzled expressions.

However, Master Chi wasn’t anxious at all, instead, he smiled faintly, looking at everyone.

Seeing this, everyone took a closer look at the broken blade again.

Gradually, someone seemed to have discovered something, and their eyes instantly became fervent.

"Could it be..."

At this moment, Zhou Yu was also staring intently at this broken blade.

In fact, when the broken blade appeared, he had already keenly sensed that this treasure was not simple.

However, no matter how hard he looked, he couldn’t figure it out.

He just had this vague feeling that the broken blade was extraordinary.

At this moment, someone suddenly exclaimed nearby:

"It’s an Ancient Treasure!!!"

"This broken blade is an Ancient Treasure!!!"

As soon as these words were spoken, the entire hall erupted into a frenzy.

Everyone’s eyes showed crazed looks.

An Ancient Treasure.

Unexpectedly, aside from the three rare treasures, there was an Ancient Treasure up for auction.

This was simply unbelievable.

At the same time, many people also showed regretful expressions.

If only they had known there would be an Ancient Treasure at this auction, they should have brought more possessions.

Some even regretted not bringing their clan elders along.

At this moment, Zhou Yu also displayed a shocked expression.

An Ancient Treasure!

These simple two words were both familiar and strange to him.

Actually, Zhou Yu had never seen an Ancient Treasure; he had only read about them in ancient books.

Ancient Treasures are also magic treasures, but they are far from being comparable to ordinary magic treasures.

Anything that can be called an Ancient Treasure surely possesses power far above ordinary magic treasures.

According to the descriptions in ancient books, a single Ancient Treasure can easily destroy dozens of magic treasures.

Moreover, Ancient Treasures have one more feature: they can resist Heavenly Tribulations to some extent.

It’s known that Heavenly Tribulations are the greatest challenge facing all races in the Primordial Realm.

Take the Human Race, for example, a Divinity Transformation Realm Heavenly Tribulation.

Even if the person crossing it has ten magic treasures, they are still not guaranteed to get through the Heavenly Tribulation.

Because even top-tier magic treasures are easily destroyed by a Heavenly Tribulation, not to mention ordinary magic treasures.

But if the person crossing the tribulation possesses an Ancient Treasure, they can easily pass the Heavenly Tribulation.

This is the difference between Ancient Treasures and ordinary magic treasures. 𝒇𝓻𝓮𝓮𝙬𝙚𝒃𝒏𝓸𝙫𝒆𝙡.𝓬𝓸𝒎

Of course, there are many types of Heavenly Tribulations, such as Divinity Transformation Realm, Void Refinement Realm, Integration Realm, and each stage has different powers.

It’s not that any Ancient Treasure can withstand all Heavenly Tribulations.

Ancient Treasures are also graded.

A Low Level Ancient Treasure can easily withstand a Divinity Transformation Realm Heavenly Tribulation.

Top-tier Ancient Treasures can withstand an Integration Realm Heavenly Tribulation and even have some function in a Tribulation Crossing Realm Heavenly Tribulation.

Zhou Yu continued to stare intently at the broken blade on the high platform, having read so much about Ancient Treasures in books, but this was the first time he saw one in reality.

At this moment, Master Chi also spoke with a laugh:

"Your eyesight, dear friends, is indeed sharp."

"This blade is indeed an Ancient Treasure."

"Strictly speaking, when this blade was whole, it should have been a top-tier Ancient Treasure."

"But unfortunately, for some unknown reason, this blade was broken."

"Even so, this blade still possesses the power of a Low Level Ancient Treasure."

As Master Chi’s words fell, the audience exploded.

"What???"

"A top-tier Ancient Treasure!!!"

"My God, this blade turned out to be a top-tier Ancient Treasure. What could have destroyed a top-tier Ancient Treasure?"

"Could it be..."

The people present all displayed excited expressions.

The only thing that could destroy a top-tier Ancient Treasure might just be a Primordial Ancient Treasure.

A Primordial Ancient Treasure, it’s a legendary treasure.

It’s a tier above Ancient Treasures.

For a moment, the crowd’s eyes were filled with madness.

Master Chi wasted no more words, immediately declaring:

"The starting price for this item is five million Spirit Stones. Now, the bidding begins!"

"Six million!"

"Eight million!"

"Ten million!"

"..."

In the faces of the shocked crowd, the bidding prices rose crazily.

Such astronomical numbers caused most people to reveal helpless expressions.

Though Ancient Treasures are good, they have nothing to do with them.

They didn’t even have the qualifications to participate.

At this moment, Zhou Yu was also frightened by these terrifying prices.

In truth, what he lacked most now was a magic treasure.

He was actually very interested in the broken blade, even tempted, to be honest.

However, he was even more interested in the final three pieces of rare treasures.

For an Ancient Treasure not to be the final highlight, one can only imagine the level of the final treasures.

Thinking this, Zhou Yu could only suppress the urge to bid, watching helplessly as the broken blade was finally auctioned off for eighteen million.

With the auction of this Ancient Treasure complete, the auction moved into the materials phase.

Most of the materials, while rare, had little use to Zhou Yu.

However, others were still fiercely competing for them.

Just then, from the high platform, Master Chi’s voice suddenly called out.

"The next treasure is still a material, one that many have heard of, especially friends from the Demon Clan."

"This item is called Stalactites!"

"And it’s millennium-old Stalactites."

These words immediately caused many members of the Demon Clan below to display ecstatic expressions.

For the Demon Clan, Stalactites are an existence comparable to top-tier treasures.

After all, for the Demon Clan’s Transformation, and even in Tribulation Crossing, this item is essential.

Momentarily, many Demon Clan members began to bid.

"Seven million!"

"Nine million!"

"Ten million!"

"..."

The price rapidly climbed until it reached fifteen million, and then gradually quieted down.

After all, this round of the auction was about to end.

No surprise, those three rare treasures should be appearing soon.

So, many were reluctant to spend so much at this moment to buy this item.

Just as the price stalled at fifteen million, about to be sold.

Suddenly, a voice called out.

"Sixteen million."

Hearing this voice, everyone was stunned, and then looked towards Zhou Yu’s direction.

The previous bidders were mainly from the Demon Clan.

Little movement came from the Human Race’s side.

Unexpectedly, at the last moment, someone from the Human Race came out to bid...
