Supreme Cultivation Master

Chapter 606: Chapter 605: Target of All Arrows

The appearance of a single Fire Essence Immortal Crystal would be enough to cause a massive sensation. The grey-robed man thought, This master is simply too generous! I absolutely adore him!

"How infuriating! So infuriating!" the woman raged, seeing the item she’d nearly won slip through her fingers yet again. "Elder, I want to kill that guy!"

The old man breathed an inward sigh of relief. Thank goodness someone else has taken over as the sucker. I haven’t even had time to thank Ye Fan, let alone consider killing him!

Outwardly, however, he said, "That young man is indeed infuriating, but he has a Fire Essence Immortal Crystal and we don’t. There’s nothing we can do."

"Elder, do we have anything more valuable than his Fire Essence Immortal Crystal? Bring it out! I want to crush him with it!" The woman was deeply displeased; she was, after all, a very headstrong woman.

The elder spread his hands helplessly. "We truly have nothing that can surpass a Fire Essence Immortal Crystal."

"Hmph!" The woman was on the verge of tears from frustration. I swear I’ll make Ye Fan pay for this.

The entire venue was stunned into silence. A Fire Essence Immortal Crystal... Who here had the ability to surpass Ye Fan?

At that moment, Ye Fan was feeling quite proud. So this is how good it feels to be rich. This is my first time truly experiencing what it means to be a tycoon. In the Divine Domain, Immortal Mines are currency, so it’s no exaggeration to say I’m now the richest man in the entire Divine Domain. I’m just that wealthy. I can afford it, and those who can’t should just stop complaining!

The grey-robed man immediately announced, "Sold!"

He had no other choice. No one could possibly outbid a Fire Essence Immortal Crystal. Still, his goal had been achieved. A Fire Essence Immortal Crystal! Who would have thought I could obtain a Top-grade Immortal Crystal Stone in this corrupt auction house?

The crowd was not convinced, especially the few individuals whose desired items had been snatched away by Ye Fan’s bids of Immortal Mines. This time, they planned to get their revenge. freeweɓnovel.cѳm

Another item was brought up: a Divine Artifact named the Thousand Buddha Sword.

This sword was forged by the Thousand Buddha Main God himself. The crowd grew ecstatic. A Divine Sword forged by a Main God, no matter how weak, was still a Main God’s Divine Artifact! All eyes were fixated passionately on the sword.

Ye Fan felt a bit helpless. The piece of scrap metal he actually wanted had yet to appear for auction, much to his disappointment. He was somewhat interested in this sword, but it was an item he could take or leave.

"One Fire Essence Immortal Crystal!" he called out immediately.

The grey-robed auctioneer was thrilled. This master is so domineering, so generous! He hadn’t expected Ye Fan to be the one to open the bidding.

At this, the crowd exploded in a fury. Most of the items today had already been bought by Ye Fan with his Top-grade Immortal Mines. They had originally thought he would stop after a few items and they could just endure it, but now, he had made a move again. This enraged everyone, and they resolved to teach Ye Fan a lesson. freёwebnovel.com

Of course, those in the main hall didn’t dare to bid recklessly, as the auction house knew the limits of their finances all too well. Therefore, it was up to the occupants of the private boxes to make a move.

The occupant of the box next to Ye Fan’s finally spoke up. Ye Fan had felt a strong fluctuation of power from that room earlier and knew this person was no simple character.

"One hundred tons of Immortal Mine!" the voice from the box called out.

The grey-robed man announced, "Although the value of one hundred tons of Immortal Mine is slightly higher than a Fire Essence Immortal Crystal, our auction house specifically requires the Fire Essence Immortal Crystal! One hundred tons of Immortal Mine is not enough to surpass its value!"

The crowd was instantly furious. They now understood that even the auction house was siding with the tycoon. Was this even a real auction anymore? They all felt like mere props, playing along with a script written by Ye Fan and the auction house. They wanted to shout, "Why don’t we all just leave and let you two trade in private?"

Ye Fan was aware that the Martial Artist in the next box was enraged.

In response, the man shouted, "And thirty thousand slaves!"

The entire audience gasped. One hundred tons of Immortal Mine plus thirty thousand slaves—this bid had definitely surpassed the value of a single Fire Essence Immortal Crystal. In fact, it had also far surpassed the value of the Divine Artifact itself.

"Excellent! Now he’s finally met a real opponent! I’ve had enough of that kid for a long time." The woman finally breathed a sigh of relief. She had been about to bid against Ye Fan herself, but someone had unexpectedly stepped in first, and she felt like celebrating.

The elder stood behind her the entire time. If she had actually tried to join that bidding war, I would have knocked her out without a second thought. I’d rather beg for forgiveness later. Today’s competition is just too damn terrifying. Even an old hand like me finds my heart pounding.

Just then, Ye Fan calmly declared, "Five Fire Essence Immortal Crystals!"

ROAR!

The entire venue erupted into a deafening roar. Everyone was in an uproar. What was happening? Five Fire Essence Immortal Crystals! My God, just kill me now! That was the single thought racing through everyone’s mind.

They had thought the tycoon would surely give up. Who could have imagined that not only would he refuse to quit, but he would escalate the bidding to such an absurd degree?

The grey-robed man hosting the auction nearly collapsed. Even after overseeing the auction house for many years, he was completely staggered by Ye Fan’s show of wealth.

The woman, who had just been feeling so smug, felt her joy instantly turn to despair when she heard Ye Fan’s bid. How can anyone possibly compete with that?

Everyone was thinking the same thing: we know you’re rich, but you can’t just treat money like a game! Five Fire Essence Immortal Crystals! If you offered those to any Main God in the Divine Domain, that Main God would treat you like an honored guest and personally forge a Divine Artifact for you—no, they’d probably make two or three!

Yet, in this tycoon’s hands, they were something to be squandered carelessly. No one had misheard. Ye Fan had called out the bid for five Fire Essence Immortal Crystals as casually as if they were worthless trinkets he wouldn’t miss even if he lost them.

They were all in a state of profound shock. It also represented their complete submission; if possible, they would have thrown themselves at his feet.

In truth, Ye Fan knew the other party was deliberately causing trouble. He had initially considered the Divine Sword an optional purchase, but since they were looking for a fight, Ye Fan decided he ought to reason with them. His method of reasoning was simple: bury them in Top-grade Immortal Crystals until they submitted.

The occupants of the neighboring box were clearly stunned as well.

However, the voice continued, "One hundred tons of Immortal Mine, plus an entire province!"

The crowd was rocked by another wave of shock. The hundred tons of Immortal Mine had become almost irrelevant; the entire province was the real prize, as it constituted a massive territory. It was clear that this master had fully committed to clashing with Ye Fan. The battle between the two tycoons was far from over—in fact, it had just begun.

Everyone watched with bated breath.
