Chapter 417: The Ten-Thousand-Year-Old Ancient Corpse

"Two hundred million!!" Feng Wuxiu spoke up immediately…

He offered the maximum price the Thunder Fire Sect had agreed upon after their internal deliberation!

Exclamations filled the venue, and those large families completely withered…

How could they compete?

The foundations of the four major Sects were too terrifying; when it came to a contest of financial power, they simply couldn't compare.

"Two hundred and twenty million!" At this moment, Elder Yin Su also spoke…

His gaze was cold, and his heart was bleeding…

It was only because this Earth Rank High Grade Magical Artifact was too rare.

Even Bei Ming, a Rank Five Artifact Refiner, had only ever refined one, and that artifact wasn't in his hands, but in the hands of the Ancestor of Jixian Sect.

From this, one could see just how rare this Earth Rank High Grade Magical Artifact truly was.

At this point, Wu Qingyan was no longer presiding over the scene; it had been completely handed over to Pavilion Master Qiao Yuanzhou.

Moreover, Pavilion Master Yan Tong and the others were prepared, guarding against anyone who might suddenly try to seize it.

The temptation of an Earth Rank High Grade Magical Artifact was too great; it was possible that some old monsters hidden for years might disguise themselves to snatch it…

"Two hundred and fifty million!!" Mo Xiaoyao gritted his teeth hard.

He called out the maximum limit given by Ziyun Cave Heaven.

Feng Wuxiu and Elder Yin Su's faces turned ashen; clearly, they couldn't call out a higher price.

Gan Ning bid: "Two hundred and eighty million!!"

Piaomiao Immortal Palace had the strongest financial resources and was determined to obtain this artifact!

Mo Xiaoyao went soft again…

Ziyun Cave Heaven hadn't given him that much of an allowance!

Finally, the deal was struck at two hundred and eighty million!

This artifact belonged to Piaomiao Immortal Palace.

Gan Ning let out a breath; having bid two hundred and eighty million for this artifact, his heart also ached terribly.

Xiao Fan's face had frozen stiff, and he wasn't the only one…

The other Disciples of the Jixian Sect were the same.

"Nearly three hundred million…"

Xiao Fan marveled; he felt as though he had struck it rich long ago.

In front of him, Warrior Feng turned around, glanced at him, and explained, "It can't be helped, that artifact is just too precious…"

He assumed Xiao Fan was marveling because he had never seen an Earth Rank artifact or so many Spirit Stones before.

He didn't think there was anything surprising about Xiao Fan's shocked expression.

The others around Xiao Fan looked even more shocked.

Nangong Lingxuan and Hu Rui were the same, their faces full of disbelief…

It seemed they had never even heard of such a vast amount of Spirit Stones.

As for the group of Jixian Sect Disciples, each of their mouths was open wide enough to fit an egg…

The transaction ended, and Gan Ning had spent all the Spirit Stones on him before the exchange for the pitch-black long saber was completed.

If he wanted to participate in the bidding for the final auction item,

then he would also need to write an IOU…

The clamor in the venue never stopped…

It was truly too astonishing—nearly three hundred million Spirit Stones.

Pavilion Master Qiao Yuanzhou looked toward Pavilion Master Yan Tong; the final grand finale item was with him.

Pavilion Master Yan Tong nodded slightly…

The final closing price for this Earth Rank High Grade long saber artifact was thirty million more than they had previously estimated.

It was indeed quite good…

Pavilion Master Yan Tong's figure flickered, and in the next moment, he appeared on the auction stage, standing beside Pavilion Master Qiao Yuanzhou.

"Everyone, next is the true grand finale item of this auction!"

His voice was calm, yet it revealed a sense of majesty…

It caused the noisy hall to instantly fall silent.

Just now, many people were discussing that since the Earth Rank High Grade long saber was the penultimate grand finale item…

Then what would the final grand finale item be!!

Elder Yin Su, Gan Ning, Feng Wuxiu, and Mo Xiaoyao were still using Jade Slips to constantly contact their Sects.

They were reporting the situation here to their respective sides at every moment…

This auction was more intense than any previous one…

The items appearing for bid were also unexpected.

Pavilion Master Yan Tong looked around, then he tapped his Storage Pouch…

A corpse appeared within it…

That's right, a corpse…

It was eight feet tall with the physical characteristics of the Human Race, but what was shocking was that this corpse actually had three heads and six arms!!!

"This… what is this!?"

"Three heads and six arms?! This isn't fake, is it? Is this even a human?"

"This isn't a Yao Beast, so what is it?!"

"I've never heard of the existence of such a creature!"

"…"

The venue instantly fell into chaos; no one expected that the Treasure Pavilion's final auction item would actually be a corpse.

And one with three heads and six arms at that!

Even Gan Ning and the others were dumbfounded.

They had never seen such a race before…

Furthermore, the aura emanating from this corpse was incredibly terrifying…

"This, what on earth is this!"

Gan Ning spoke up, and the other Yuanhun Realm experts did the same, their gazes all shifting toward Pavilion Master Yan Tong.

At the same time, they immediately used communication jade slips to send the news back to their Sects.

"This…" Pavilion Master Yan Tong shook his head with a bitter smile. "Actually, we aren't sure either…"

"This corpse was found in the same place as that long saber. It is perfectly preserved, and the aura it emits is incredibly terrifying. Based on our analysis…"

"This corpse has been dead for at least ten thousand years!!"

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone present lost their composure.

Even Gan Ning and the others were no exception!

"What, ten thousand years?! Are you joking? What kind of corpse hasn't rotted after ten thousand years??" Gan Ning didn't believe it.

"Exactly, how could ten thousand years be possible!" Feng Wuxiu also didn't believe it.

Elder Yin Su and Mo Xiaoyao didn't speak, but their faces were also filled with disbelief.

In fact, besides them, the over one million people in the venue all shared the same thought.
