Chapter 1794 The Lord of the Ruins Invites You!
Upon seeing the Temple of Truth join the bidding, Ye Chuyun's eyes narrowed: "Three hundred billion."
"Three hundred and fifty billion." The Temple of Truth did not give up.
"Four hundred billion."
"Four hundred and fifty billion."
"50 billion."
When Ye Chuyun announced 50 billion, the Temple of Truth seemed to want to give up.
But another voice rang out:
"Five hundred and fifty billion."
Box No. 7, representing the Temple of Time.
The Temple of Time, a reclusive organization that studies the laws of time, has also made its move.
Ye Chuyun frowned slightly.
What's going on? Are they deliberately trying to drive up the price?
The Temple of Truth and the Temple of Time are clearly not forces to be trifled with.
Moreover, they are financially powerful, and if there is real competition, the price may be driven up very high.
But he had no way out.
The fragments of the Eight-Part Pagoda must be captured!
"Six hundred billion." Ye Chuyun continued to raise the price.
"Six hundred and fifty billion."
"Seventy billion."
The three major forces began to compete, and the price quickly climbed to 100 billion.
When the price reached 150 billion, the Temple of Time withdrew, seemingly quite satisfied with the price.
Ye Chuyun could tell at a glance that the other party was deliberately trying to drive up the price.
It's probably because he humiliated his opponent when the competition law resonated and crystallized earlier.
Now that we've retaliated, we're even.
All I wanted was for him to spend more God and Demon Coins.
In the end, only the Temple of Truth remained.
"160 billion." The representative of the Temple of Truth seemed determined to win.
"Two hundred billion." Ye Chuyun immediately raised the price by four hundred billion, trying to force the other party to back down.
The Temple of Truth remained silent for a moment, but still refused to give up: "Twenty-one hundred billion."
Although they were unwilling to give up, they only added 10 billion, which suggests their attitude wasn't as firm.
When Ye Chuyun noticed this change, he raised the price significantly again.
"250 billion."
This time, the Temple of Truth finally gave up.
The golden gavel fell.
The unknown fragments belong to Ye Chuyun, costing 250 billion.
Zu Long was overjoyed to see that he had obtained the fragment.
If anyone else knew that these were fragments of the Eight Buddha Pagodas, they would probably be so angry they'd vomit blood.
Let alone 250 billion, they would fight tooth and nail for 2.5 trillion.
"The five additional items have all been auctioned off. The auction will continue."
Immediately afterwards, Mr. Jin continued to introduce the next item to be auctioned.
However, after such fierce competition and the appearance of various treasures, the auction items that followed seemed rather ordinary.
Ye Chuyun had no interest in joining the bidding, so she simply chatted with Zu Long and the others, quietly waiting for the auction to end.
About an hour later, the auction came to an end.
Mr. Jin announced, "Today's auction is now concluded."
"Tomorrow will be the final and grand finale of the Myriad Treasures Gathering!"
"At that time, ten treasures, including the [Primal Rune Crystal], will be unveiled. Please look forward to it."
The auction officially ended on its second day.
Ye Chuyun stood up and stretched her limbs.
Bai Chen began to tally up today's expenses.
"Lord Ye, today we have spent a total of 19.65 trillion."
"A very fruitful harvest indeed."
Ye Chuyun nodded: "There are about 80 trillion left."
Zu Long cautioned, "But the competition for the Primordial Rune Crystals will be even fiercer tomorrow. The estimated price is between eight and twelve trillion, but with today's temporary auction item, I'm worried the price will be pushed even higher."
"Furthermore, we need to set aside some funds to deal with possible emergencies."
Ye Chuyun pondered for a moment: "Eighty trillion should be enough."
"And what if it's really not enough..."
He looked at Bai Chen: "Butler Bai, could you please check for me whether the Myriad Realms Treasures Exchange accepts barter?"
Bai Chen nodded: "Sure. As long as both parties agree, the auctioneer can arrange a barter transaction."
A glint of light flashed in Ye Chuyun's eyes: "That's good."
"If funds become tight tomorrow, I don't mind exchanging the prescription for it."
Just then, there was a gentle knock on the door of the private room.
Bai Chen stepped forward and opened the door. A maid stood outside and respectfully said, "Lord Ye, the Lord of the Ruins invites you."
At this point in time?
Zulong and Heize exchanged a glance, both seeing the wariness in each other's eyes.
Bai Chen was also quite surprised; how did the Ruins Master suddenly arrive?
"Lord Ye, this..."
Ye Chuyun raised her hand, signaling everyone to calm down.
He looked at the maid: "Did the Lord of the Ruins invite only me?"
The maid nodded respectfully: "Yes, Lord Ruins specifically instructed that only Lord Ye is invited to go."
Zu Long immediately sensed something was amiss and transmitted his voice, "Why does the Ruins Master suddenly want to see you, and why does he only send you alone...?"
"I sense something fishy is going on here."
Kurosawa remained noncommittal: "We'd better go together, just in case."
Ye Chuyun shook her head: "Since it was the Lord of the Ruins who personally invited us, there shouldn't be any danger."
"Moreover, with the strength of the Ruins Lord, if he really wanted to harm me, he wouldn't need to use this method at all."
He looked at Zulong and Heize: "You wait here, I'll be right back."
Zu Long wanted to say something more, but in the end he sighed and said, "Fine, be careful."
"A being like the Ruins Master wouldn't easily lay a hand on a junior, but remember, be careful with your words and don't make promises lightly."
Kurosawa also instructed, "If the other party makes any demands, don't agree immediately. Come back and discuss it with us first."
Ye Chuyun nodded: "I understand."
He looked at the maid: "Lead the way."
The maid bowed respectfully: "Lord Ye, please follow me."
Ye Chuyun followed the maid out of the private room and along a hidden passage.
The passageway is inlaid with luminous crystals that constantly emit a soft glow.
However, Ye Chuyun discovered that this light contained extremely strong spatial laws.
With the enhancement of this spatial law, it's estimated that no one will be able to discover this passage.
The further Ye Chuyun walked, the more she could sense the changes in the surrounding space.
This is no longer a simple corridor, but a passage connecting different dimensions of space.
After walking for about ten minutes, a wooden door appeared ahead.
The wooden door looked ordinary, but Ye Chuyun could sense that a separate little world was hidden behind it.
The maid stopped and said respectfully, "Lord Ye, the Lord of the Ruins is waiting for you behind the door. I can only escort you this far."
Ye Chuyun nodded, pushed open the door, and entered a courtyard that seemed to float in mid-air.
There is a pond in the courtyard, with crystal-clear water and nine golden lotus flowers floating on the surface.
Each lotus flower emitted a faint golden light, and glistening dewdrops condensed on its petals. These dewdrops were not ordinary water droplets, but rather formed from the essence of the laws.
