Chapter 416: Similarity, Mysterious black sword

Pavilion Master Qiao Yuanzhou wore a smile, slowly restraining his aura to return to a state of calm.

He smiled and said, "To tell you the truth… this black blade is very mysterious. If one doesn't probe it with Qi or activate it, it feels like an ordinary Magical Artifact, at most only at the Profound Rank level…"

"But once activated with Qi, the true power of this blade can be unleashed…"

"Furthermore, our Treasure Pavilion has conducted tests. Whether activated by someone in the Tongtian Realm, Xuandan Realm, Yuanhun Realm, or Pi Hai Realm, the blade can unleash different levels of power depending on the strength used…"

"Our final assessment is that this blade is at least a High Grade Earth Rank…"

"Moreover, it seems that a weapon spirit once existed within it, but it was wiped out. Otherwise, this blade would be even more terrifying today, perhaps even reaching the level of a Heaven Rank Magical Artifact."

Upon hearing Pavilion Master Qiao Yuanzhou's words, the scene fell silent for a moment before erupting into an uproar…

This time, even Gan Ning and the others could not sit still.

Comparable to a Heaven Rank?

It once nurtured a weapon spirit…

What kind of Magical Artifact must it be to achieve this?!

They did not doubt the words of the Treasure Pavilion. Firstly, the reputation of the Treasure Pavilion was well-guaranteed; they would not deceive them over such a matter.

The second point was the mysterious runes that appeared after Pavilion Master Qiao Yuanzhou injected Qi and activated the long blade just a moment ago.

Those mysterious runes were eerie and unfathomable, definitely capable of demonstrating the extraordinary nature of this Magical Artifact.

"Now, the starting price for this Magical Artifact is ten million, and each increment must not be less than one million Spirit Stones!"

Pavilion Master Qiao Yuanzhou announced…

A starting price of ten million—this was the highest item in the current auction.

"Ten million!"

"Fifteen million!"

"Twenty million!!"

"…"

The venue immediately boiled over; even the large families that had not spoken until now were bidding one after another.

Furthermore, people from large families kept taking out their communication jade slips to contact their clansmen, asking whether they should increase their bidding efforts.

Besides them, the people from the Four Great Forces were doing the same.

Gan Ning took out his communication jade slip and transmitted the situation regarding this black long blade back.

In his personal opinion, this long blade was worth around two hundred million…

Feng Wuxiu was the same; a High Grade Earth Rank Magical Artifact was no longer something he could decide on his own.

Mo Xiaoyao looked at the long blade with gleaming eyes; he was determined to obtain it!

He hurriedly took out his communication jade slip to contact Ziyun Cave Heaven.

If he could win this High Grade Earth Rank Magical Artifact, then the hundred million-plus he had spent earlier might result in him bearing less responsibility.

Elder Yin Su also took out his communication jade slip to contact the Jixian Sect.

He informed Sect Master Wu Xinjue of the blade's value and let the Sect make the decision.

The value of this blade could be called terrifying.

Especially if it fell into the hands of some old antiques within the Sect, their foundation would become even deeper.

The bidding continued…

Before the Four Great Forces had even spoken, the long blade had already been bid up to fifty million.

These large families were prepared to sell everything they had to try and bid for this long blade!

Most of their families also had Old Ancestors in the Pi Hai Realm; if they obtained this blade!

Then their status within the large families would rise steadily, and they could compete for more resources in the future…

Xiao Fan was stunned…

He was not stunned by the High Grade Earth Rank Magical Artifact, nor was he stunned because the surrounding bids were ridiculously high.

It was because this black blade looked too familiar…

Looking at its appearance, it was simply the same material as the black sword in his Storage Pouch.

"No way…" Xiao Fan swallowed hard…

He really wanted to take out the black sword right now to take a close look and see if the two Magical Artifacts were identical.

At this moment, he couldn't even believe it himself; he had actually been carrying a Earth Rank Magical Artifact on him the whole time!

And it was even a High Grade Earth Rank!

The venue was noisy, with bidding sounds continuing…

The long blade had already been bid up to sixty million!!

At this time, the Four Great Forces had all finished contacting their respective Sects.

The decision made by all the Sects was unanimous: bid for it at all costs, and each Family had provided a staggering figure!

"Eighty million!"

At this moment, Feng Wuxiu spoke, representing the Thunder Fire Sect.

Instantly, the small families that had been competing for the bid just now all fell silent.

They knew…

The subsequent bidding was no longer their turn.

Gan Ning spoke: "One hundred million!"

He directly called out an astronomical price, which was also the highest price in the auction house so far!

At the scene, countless people's eyes widened in shock…

To them, one hundred million was an astronomical figure…

This was one hundred million Spirit Stones…

"One hundred and ten million!" Mo Xiaoyao said fiercely, joining the bidding.

"One hundred and twenty million!" Elder Yin Su spoke, his expression cold and stern!

The shock in Xiao Fan's heart grew larger and larger…

Good heavens!

This long blade was worth over a hundred million?!

If his guess was true!

Then wouldn't he have struck it rich long ago?

"Who did I steal this sword from…" Xiao Fan quickly recalled in his mind.

He had robbed too many people in the Secret Realm and had forgotten whose it was.

That's right… it was from the person he had knocked unconscious with a big stick.

Xiao Fan suddenly remembered…

That person's head had been smashed open by his companion, and the whole person had passed out directly…

And this long sword had become his…

"One hundred and fifty million!" Gan Ning spoke once again, the price terrifying.

This time, even if Xiao Fan wanted to cause trouble, he couldn't even get a word in!!
