Chapter 12 - Ch 12: Void Fire Fruit

nFollowing Zhang Qing's words, a young girl with a big tray in her hand that was covered by a red cloth walked up the platform.

nWhen the young girl lifted the red cloth, the item on the tray appeared before the eyes of everyone.

nIt was Crimson Armour.

nZhang Qing's charming voice rang out,

"This crimson armour was made completely out of wind copper. It was from a famous craftsman, and its defence is shocking. It is a high-tier common weapon.

"

n

"This crimson armour is our first item this time. The minimum price is set as five thousand silver coins. Each bid must be at least one thousand silver coin greater than the last.

"

n

"Now start the bid.

"

n

"Five thousand silver coins

"

n

"Six thousand si...

"

n

"10,000 silver

"

n

"10,100 silver coins

"

nCountless bidders immediately leaped into action. But the auction has just begun, so everyone was still very reserved.

nYe Xiao could not help but shook his head,

"This crimson armour would definitely be sold for more than twenty thousand silver coins.

"

nThat was why Zhang Qing had tossed out such a low starting price. It was, in order to slowly entice everyone and gradually excite everyone's mood.

nIn a battle, the main thing was to kill the opponent. But defence is also important. So, the bidders were gradually increasing the price of this crimson armour. And on top of it, this armour was actually a high-tier common weapon.

nJust like cultivation skills, weapons are also divided into common weapons and spirit weapons and they are further divided into low-tier, middle-tier, and high-tier weapons.

nIn the Azure Dragon Country, a low-tier spirit weapon is already very rare, let alone a middle-tier and high-tier spirit weapon.

nIn small cities like Lin Star City, a high-tier common weapon is the symbol of hegemony.

nSo, the price was increasing rapidly.

n

"15,000 silver coins

"

n

"200 gold coins

"

nThe voice of a middle-aged man rang out from one of the private rooms.

nSilence!

nImmediately, everyone stops their bidding. It was an increase of a total of 5,000 silver in this bid.

nAfter seeing that nobody was bidding, Zhang Qing said,

"200 gold coins once!

"

n

"200 gold coins twice!

"

n

"200 gold coins thrice!

"

n

"Congratulations to the bidder of room number 4 for successfully bidding for the crimson armour. By purchasing this armour you have become the first winner of the auction this time, congratulations.

"

nZhang Qing's words were perfectly tuned in order to let people be ease and comfortable.

nWith this kind of auctioneer here, there was no need to worry about being able to sell anything.

nYe Xiao leaned against the chair he was sitting on.

nThe first few items to be sold were common weapons, some herbs, and ores. Ye Xiao had no interest in these things. He did not even bother to look at them.

nHowever, some herbs and ores were sold for a pretty good price. The highest price that he heard of was 600 gold coins.

nSoon after, there was series of four to five different kinds of rare and precious medicinal ingredients for auction. Ye Xiao had heard of these slightly rumoured herbs.

n

"Next is the penultimate item, Void Fire Fruit.

"

nHearing that Ye Xiao's body suddenly shook, then his eyes tightly stared at the dark red fruit beside Zhang Qing's hand.

nZhang Qing smiled as she introduced it,

"This is a miraculous fruit that comes from the deeper area of the Black Cloud Forest. It also had the protection of the Scaled Armored Beast. After consuming it, one can increase the toughness of the martial artist's body. It can also increase their strength.

"

n

"The starting price of the Void Fire Fruit is 500 gold coins. And every bid must increase the minimum of 50 gold coins.

"

nJust as Zhang Qing finished spiking, Ye Xiao immediately said,

"500 gold coins!

"

nEven though right now he does not have that much money on him, but he was confident after selling the 100 low-grade spirit stone, he will earn big enough.

nOthers also followed behind him.

n

"600 gold coins

"

n

"700 gold coins

"

n

"750 gold coins

"

nThe price of the Void Fire Fruit was constantly increasing at a rapid pace.

n

"1000 gold coins

"

nYe Xiao did not even frown as he called out this price. This kind of spiritual fruit was what he urgently needed in order to further increase his strength.

nTo be able to solidify the skin and strengthen the defense meant that it was able to increase the strength of a person to a certain extent. And it can also help him breaking through to the Qi Condensation Realm.

n

"1100 gold coins

"

n

"1200 gold coins

"

none thousand and ...

n.....

n.....

n.....

nOther people still did not give up on this fruit and were still bidding higher and higher.

nJust as Ye Xiao was about to bid again, a voice rang out.

n

"2000 gold coins.

"

nIt comes from the room next door.

n

"This guest here at room number 2 placed the bid of 2000 gold coins, is there anyone else who wants to add on?

"

nZhang Qing's charming voice sounded to everyone.

nOnce again bid of the Void Fire Fruit started increasing.

n

"2200 gold coins

"

n

"2300 gold coins

"

nSeeing this Ye Xiao thought for a moment and said,

"3000 gold coins

"

n

"3000 gold coins, is there anyone who wants to bid higher

", Zhang Qing Asked. Seeing that nobody placed the higher bid.

nShe said,

"3000 gold coins once!

"

n

"3000 gold coins twice!

"

n

"3000 gold coins thrice!

"

n

"Congratulations to the bidder of Void Fire Fruit from room number 1 to successfully bid this spirit fruit

".

nZhang Qing happily announced that the Void Fire Fruit belonged to Ye Xiao.

nAfter obtaining the Void Fire Fruit, Ye Xiao leaned back in his chair, satisfied. The smile on his face was practically grinning.

nNow, he finally has a chance to make his breakthrough to the Qi Condensation Realm. After stepping into Qi Condensation Realm, he can break the barrier of the memories of Ancient Pill God. After fusing with those memories, he can use them for his own.
