Jueyin's brother let out a cold snort; one million was indeed a substantial amount for the Yin Yang Sect.
As for Snow Without Trace, he was merely there to join the fun. Since someone had already bid higher, he decided not to raise his bid and simply watched the show from the sidelines.
"Hmph, Lu Yu, as a lone wolf, can you really afford this Multiverse Stone? It seems our sect is truly underestimating you," Wu Cong said with a somewhat gloomy expression but still managed to smile as he raised the bid to "one hundred and ten thousand."
Lu Yu fell silent.
"What? Has the Romantic Swordsman run out of money?" Wu Cong sneered.
Lu Yu snorted coldly and said nothing further.
"One hundred and ten thousand once," Zhou Hai announced after glancing around.
"One hundred and twenty thousand."
Finally, one of the three great kings, Fengyunxin, made a bid.
"Ah, Brother Fengyun finally can't sit still!" Emperor Xie laughed and added, "One hundred and thirty thousand."
"Since it has come to this, if I, Ghost Cold, do not raise my bid, I fear there will be gossip," Ghost Cold said with an icy tone. "One hundred and fifty thousand."
The bids from the three great kings were beyond what Wu Cong could compete with, and he immediately fell silent. It was important to note that the three great kings were unparalleled experts at the peak of the Transformation Realm. Aside from those ancient beings who had entered the Void-Viewing Three Realms, they were held in high regard.
"You three are bidding so vigorously; entering the tomb of a Void-Viewing Three Realms expert is not that easy," Eastern King Di Xie remarked, causing the entire Auction venue to fall into silence.
A cup of tea's time passed.
"One million five hundred and ten thousand," Fengyunxin said.
Wang Yi's eyes flickered; he was certain that the three great kings must have reached some agreement, otherwise it wouldn't be like this. However, this had nothing to do with him. He had already achieved his goal; the three Fire Essences were now in his possession.
"One million five hundred and ten thousand going once."
"One million five hundred and ten thousand going twice."
Zhou Hai seemed to understand something as he looked around and announced, "The map to the tomb of the Void-Viewing Three Realms stronghold has been acquired by VIP number thirty-nine."
The auction officially concluded.
Yet many were speculating about where this tomb of the Void-Viewing Three Realms stronghold might be located.
Leaders from various factions began to leave one after another, but Wang Yi did not rush to depart. He made his way to another VIP Room.
"Congratulations, esteemed guest. With these three Fire Essences, I believe they will be sufficient for your needs," Zhou Hai said with a smile. "May I ask if you have any other matters during your visit?"
"Yes," Wang Yi nodded and asked, "Do you know where the owner of the Demon Crystal is? I would like to meet him."
"Oh," Zhou Hai looked at Wang Yi in surprise and asked, "Are you interested in this Demon Crystal?"
"I wouldn't say interest; I just particularly enjoy collecting ancient items for fun. After all, the demon race has disappeared, so obtaining a Demon Crystal is of no use."
Zhou Hai nodded and said, "The Demon Crystal belongs to that senior. I cannot make decisions on this matter. How about this: I will arrange for you to meet this senior, and you can discuss it with him directly. What do you think?"
"Good," Wang Yi replied without showing any emotion on his face, but he was overjoyed inside. He was quite curious about the Demon-Human Battlefield.
Before long, Wang Yi arrived in a simply decorated but extremely clean room, where an old man dressed in purple sat. He had silver hair and a hint of harshness in his expression, with bright eyes that made him seem like a towering mountain, exuding an aura of strength.
"Senior Bu, this guest is quite interested in Demon Crystal and wishes to discuss it with you," Zhou Hai said respectfully.
"Mm, you may leave," the Purple-Clad Elder waved his hand.
Zhou Hai bowed and exited.
In the large room, only Wang Yi and the Purple-Clad Elder remained.
"I am Bu Hong. What is your name?" the Purple-Clad Elder asked, glancing at Wang Yi.
Although the Purple-Clad Elder's gaze was calm, it exerted immense pressure on Wang Yi, causing him to break out in a cold sweat.
Wang Yi let out a muffled groan as Primordial Energy surged within him, allowing him to shake off the pressure. However, he realized he was drenched in cold sweat.
Looking at Bu Hong, his eyes were filled with astonishment. At first glance, this elder seemed to be a Peak Expert of the Ninth Level of the Transformation Realm, but upon closer inspection, he appeared just like an ordinary person without any fluctuations of Primordial Energy.
Taking a deep breath, Wang Yi cupped his hands and said, "I am Wang Yi, greetings to you, Senior Bu."
"Mm." Bu Hong nodded and said, "I see you are under twenty years old yet have achieved Breakthrough Sevenfold cultivation; that is indeed rare."
"What?"
Before Bu Hong's voice faded, Wang Yi was startled and took two steps back. He had initially thought this Purple Robed Elder was extraordinary, but now he realized he had vastly underestimated his strength. He couldn't help but ponder: "What level of cultivation does Bu Hong possess? Even Emperor Xie and others could not discern my abilities, yet before Bu Hong, I feel like a naked lamb completely exposed with no secrets."
Wang Yi did not like this feeling at all.
"Could he be a warrior of the Void-Viewing Three Realms?"
This thought flashed through Wang Yi's mind but could not be shaken off, as it was the only possibility that could explain why Bu Hong saw through him at a glance.
"Do you understand this item?"
Bu Hong turned his palm, and a stone-like object the size of a thumb, dark as ink and faintly emitting wisps of black smoke, appeared in his hand.
"I have never seen a Demon Crystal before; I am only interested in the Ancient War of Humans and Demons and wanted to study it," Wang Yi said respectfully, not daring to show any signs of negligence in front of such an unfathomable powerhouse.
"Is that so?" Bu Hong's tone was flat, but to Wang Yi's ears, it sounded like a Thunderous Voice. He involuntarily shuddered and quickly replied, "Every word I say is true. I genuinely want to know what happened during the Ancient War of Humans and Demons. Did the Demon Race disappear or leave the Yuan Continent?"
"What do you know?" Bu Hong suddenly showed a fierce expression. With a swift motion, he grabbed Wang Yi with one hand, a glint of coldness flashing in his eyes. "How do you know about the Demon Race?"
Wang Yi felt as if he were a lone boat in a storm, like grass in the dark night, unable to escape from the grasp of this Purple Robed Elder, completely powerless to resist.
"Senior, I assure you that I speak no falsehood."
Although Bu Hong's gaze was terrifyingly tangible, Wang Yi still mustered all his courage to meet his eyes.
Bu Hong stared at Wang Yi for a moment, suddenly showing surprise. He then tore open Wang Yi's chest with great force, revealing shock on his face before releasing him and saying lightly, "So you are from the Wang Family."
"Alright, since you are from the Wang Family, I will not make things difficult for you," Bu Hong waved his sleeve and said casually. "As for the Human-Demon War, your Wang Family should have records of it. Why do you need to ask me?"
Hearing this, Wang Yi was momentarily stunned, his thoughts racing. This was already the third time he had heard about the True Spirit Family and the Wang Family. He was both astonished and terrified at what kind of existence his family was that could instill fear in an unparalleled powerhouse.
After pondering for a moment, he couldn't understand why. He glanced at Bu Hong and said, "Senior may not know that it is strictly forbidden for any disciples in our clan to mention this matter. Therefore, I know nothing about it; all I have learned is by chance."
"Mm." Bu Hong nodded, showing no signs of doubt. After all, everyone knew that the Human-Demon War was a secret; the fewer people who knew about it, the better.
Then he slowly said, "What is your name? With your talent, you should be among the top in the Wang Family!"
"The senior flatters me. I am Wang Yi, just an inexperienced young man," Wang Yi replied respectfully.
"Wang Yi." Bu Hong frowned slightly.
"I am merely a junior disciple of the Wang Family; it is normal for seniors not to have heard of me," Wang Yi said.
"This Demon Crystal was discovered by me accidentally in the Demon-Human Battlefield. I have studied it for a long time but have not figured anything out. Since you are from the Wang Family, I will give this Demon Crystal to you without hesitation," Bu Hong said after a moment of contemplation. "However, you need to provide something of equal value to exchange with me."
"I have nothing of value, only Four Hundred Thousand High-Grade Yuan Stones. Do you think that is enough?" Wang Yi asked cautiously.
"Good." Bu Hong was delighted and tossed the Demon Crystal to Wang Yi, saying, "Take this Demon Crystal!"
After receiving the Demon Crystal, Wang Yi immediately handed over the Yuan Stones to Bu Hong and asked again, "Senior, I have never heard of this Demon-Human Battlefield. Could you tell me where it is?"
Bu Hong did not expect Wang Yi to ask this question and was slightly taken aback. He looked at him and said, "The Demon-Human Battlefield is a remnant of the Ancient War of Humans and Demons. It exists in a separate space on Soulbreaking Mountain and requires the Gaze of the Abyss to enter."
"Ah!" Wang Yi was greatly surprised; he never expected that the person before him was a powerful figure from the Void-Viewing Three Realms.
"Kid, you still have a long way to go before entering the Demon-Human Battlefield. You should focus on your cultivation!" Bu Hong said with a smile.
"Yes." Wang Yi hurriedly bowed respectfully. To be able to interact with a powerful figure from the Void-Viewing Three Realms was an incredible opportunity.
"Alright, I will take my leave now." Bu Hong waved his sleeve and said, "Kid, may we meet again by fate." With that, his figure flashed and disappeared before Wang Yi's eyes.
Bu Hong left for no more than three breaths of time when Zhou Hai walked in with a warm smile and asked, "May I ask if there is anything else you need, esteemed guest?" He was already certain that Wang Yi must be from a powerful family; otherwise, he would not have been able to produce the Multiverse Stone. It should be noted that the total cost of these three items amounted to one hundred seventeen thousand High-Quality Origin Stones, which was not something an ordinary family could afford.
Therefore, he decided to treat Wang Yi well. Even if they could not become friends, they should not become enemies. Although the Source Auction House was powerful, having one more friend was always better.
"Thank you, Zhou Steward. The items I have written down are already sufficient," Wang Yi said.
"Then I congratulate you, esteemed guest. If you ever need anything in the future, please feel free to come to me at the Source Auction House. I will do my utmost to meet your needs," Zhou Hai said, a hint of disappointment flashing across his face but quickly concealed.
"Mm." Wang Yi nodded and, with a glint in his eye, asked Zhou Hai, "May I stay here at the guild for a while?"
"Of course! Please wait a moment; I will arrange it right away," Zhou Hai said joyfully.
Soon after, Zhou Hai took Wang Yi to a separate courtyard. The yard had several potted plants and a green tree, with fresh air surrounding it. Although the interior was decorated luxuriously, it gave a particularly comfortable feeling, making one feel at home.
"Esteemed guest, if you need anything, please do not hesitate to ask," Zhou Hai said.
"Thank you," Wang Yi nodded.
Afterward, Zhou Hai tried to inquire about which family Wang Yi belonged to, but Wang Yi skillfully deflected all questions, leaving Zhou Hai feeling extremely frustrated as he left.
