Chapter 1842 Fire Body Refining Technique

Luo Yudie seemed to see through his thoughts and said, "You can buy this Cultivation Technique if you want. After all, the reputation of Burning Fire Body Refining Art is already in tatters, so I believe not many people will bid against you.

But be careful when you Cultivate it after buying it. Don't force it, and make sure you don't suffer Qi Deviation."

Ye Bufan said, "I understand."

"Let's go, the auction is about to begin. We'll head over now."

Luo Yudie finished speaking and walked out the door first. When the two of them arrived at the entrance of the auction house, Ye Bufan once again put on his ghost-face mask.

This was an experience he had summarized recently: it's better to hide one's identity when attending auctions.

Luo Yudie also didn't continue to stay with him, going to the backstage of the auction house herself, leaving Ye Bufan to enter the venue alone.

Ye Bufan stepped inside. As a branch of the Tianfeng Empire, this auction house was more than twice as large as Tianlang City's, and its decor was even more luxurious.

Under the guidance of a hostess, he found his corresponding seat, number seventy-two, according to his number plate and sat down.

Although this place was much more upscale than Tianlang City, some things were universal, such as people's flattery and worship of the powerful.

Not long after he sat down, there was a commotion at the entrance of the auction house, followed by a Young man in luxurious clothes walking in.

"Young Master Li, you've arrived!"

"Hello, Young Master Li!"

Upon seeing the Young man in luxurious clothes, everyone present stood up and went forward to greet him, expressing their flattery. This scene was exactly the same as in the Tianlang City auction house.

Ye Bufan also turned his head to look, but his gaze only swept over the Young man in luxurious clothes before landing on an old man behind him.

The old man looked to be sixty or seventy years old, with an ordinary appearance, like a common old man next door.

But Ye Bufan could sense the aura of a powerful expert; this was clearly a master of the Refining Void Realm.

The Young man in luxurious clothes was named Li Tong, from the Li family of Tianfeng City.

He ignored those who were flattering him and his gaze swept around, looking towards Ye Bufan, with a hidden killing intent in his eyes.

Ye Bufan was slightly startled. He was certain this was the first time he had seen this person, so why did he have such strong hostility towards him?

The most crucial thing was, even if he was an enemy, Ye Bufan was wearing a mask, so how did he recognize him?

Li Tong just glanced.

Then he snorted coldly and walked towards the VIP seats in front with a look of disdain.

Afterward, the entire auction house returned to calm, everything was uneventful, and the auction officially began.

The items for auction were not much different in nature from those in Tianlang City, just of a higher Rank and more expensive. There were many wealthy patrons here who spent money like water.

Ye Bufan had already seen the list and was not interested in the weapons and Cultivation Techniques that others regarded as treasures. He was waiting for that scroll of Burning Fire Body Refining Art.

Finally, the auction was halfway through, and the Body Refining Art, as the eighth item, was brought to the stage.

"Everyone, this is today's most important item, a Heaven Rank High Grade Cultivation Technique, the Burning Fire Body Refining Art…"

The Auctioneer on stage spoke eloquently. This item had already been unsold once, so he pulled out all the stops this time, trying to persuade the guests present to bid.

Unfortunately, the Burning Fire Body Refining Art's reputation was too bad. Even though he spoke with flowery language, everyone present looked disdainful.

"Everyone, the starting price for this Heaven Rank High Grade Cultivation Technique is only two hundred million gold coins. This is simply a pie falling from the sky.

Everyone must seize this opportunity. Opportunities like this are rare and once missed, they're gone forever.

The auction starts now, with each bid no less than twenty million…"

The Auctioneer shouted for a long time, but there was dead silence below the stage, not even one person raised their bidding paddle.

"This…"

The Auctioneer's heart felt cold. He had already used all his skills, but still couldn't persuade the guests in front of him. It seemed it would be unsold again today.

"Isn't it just two hundred million gold coins? Young Master will buy it, just to play with!"

As he spoke, Li Tong in the front row raised his number plate, "I bid two hundred million."

Seeing someone bid, the crowd instantly became noisy.

"Oh my god, Young Master Li actually bought this thing! I heard this is a scam, completely a fake…"

"If you know about it, how could Young Master Li not know? He just has a lot of money and bought it for fun…"

"Young Master Li is Young Master Li! Two hundred million gold coins just to buy something for fun, that's too generous…"

Everyone present discussed animatedly. In their opinion, this scroll of Burning Fire Body Refining Art already belonged to Li Tong, as this item was notorious, and no second person would bid for it.

(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)

The Auctioneer let out a long sigh of relief. He also thought the same. However, it was good that at least one person bid; selling it was better than it being unsold.

"Young Master Li bids two hundred million gold coins, is there anyone else bidding? Two hundred million once, two hundred million twice…"

The Auctioneer was too lazy to say any more and was about to bring down the hammer to finalize the auction.

Just then, another voice sounded.

"I bid two hundred fifty million!"

Everyone present was greatly surprised. Following the voice, they saw a person wearing a ghost-face mask raise his number plate.

It was Ye Bufan who made the bid. He had just scanned the Cultivation Technique with his Divine Sense, and it exuded an ancient and grand aura.

Whether it was useful or not, whether it could be successfully Cultivated or not, one thing was certain: this Cultivation Technique was definitely not a fake.

Because of this, his interest grew even stronger, and he immediately added fifty million.

Seeing everyone look at him, he said casually, "I'm also a bit interested in this thing and want to take it back to play with."

"Is this guy crazy? He's actually imitating Young Master Li, spending so much money on a toy…"

"I guess this is a fool from out of town who doesn't know about the Burning Fire Body Refining Art at all. He probably thinks he got a great deal by buying a Heaven Rank Cultivation Technique for two hundred fifty million…"

"Fool! Young Master Li has a lot of money, he's just a fool…"

Everyone present started discussing again. Everyone shared a consensus: there was no possibility of finding a hidden treasure in this Cultivation Technique.

After all, over a hundred years, countless experts had carefully investigated this Cultivation Technique, and no one had ever discovered any trickery within it.

That left only one conclusion: this thing was originally fake and had no value whatsoever.

Seeing someone bid against him, Li Tong turned his head to look.

Upon seeing it was Ye Bufan, a hint of coldness flashed in his eyes, then he put down his number plate and stopped speaking, clearly having lost interest in continuing to bid.

"Everyone, this bidder has offered two hundred fifty million. Is there anyone else who wishes to bid further?

Two hundred fifty million once, two hundred fifty million twice…"

Finally, the Auctioneer brought down his hammer, finalizing the bid. Soon, a hostess brought the scroll of Burning Fire Body Refining Art to Ye Bufan.
