Because of that, many had searched for the bottle and aimed to study it. Since it was magical, it might bring benefits such enlightments and lesson. Unfortunately, the bottle remained hidden and no one knew who the owner was or where it was.
For the owner of a sword from a monarch to exchange it for the bottle, it appeared that there's more than meet the eye. Of course, it wasn't their business and wouldn't dare.
"If you have the Bottle of Jisa, you will be getting this awesome sword! So feel free to speak." Manager Xina said with a smile. She was encouraging everyone as they were were quiet.
But the thing was, the sword wasn't enough of a tempting treasure for the owner of the bottle to come out. Although the sword was truly a weapon of high ranked monarch, the fact remained that it was not a dao weapon. As such, they would be a bit tempted but they wouldn't move.
Jin Rou was observing everyone in the lower seat to see if there would be someone reacting to this. Too bad though, not everyone showed great interest. It was the same for the VIP lounges. As a matter of fact, they were even seeing the item as a normal one.
Truth be told, the sword had a high value. However, these people here were top ramkings in their own fields. Many of them came from powerful lineages that not everyone could offend, especially those here in the VIP lounges.
In the end, the sword wasn't able to be auctioned and was set aside first to talk about the next steps.
In two hours, Manager Xina introduced the next two treasures with great and clear description.
However, the second item which was Blood Pearl was asking too much of a price, thus just like the first one, it wasn't auctioned.
For the auction house, it wasn't a good thing to happen. After all, the treasures were representing them. What would happen if other houses found out that their treasures weren't auctioned despite being on display? Not to mention, they had the highest ratings among the customers.
The good thing was, the third treasure made everyone's blood boil a bit. It was a forging hammer made with the finest materials. It was said to be used by a legendary blacksmith for millions of years. It was a not a dao weapon, but it was close to it.
The blacksmiths in the auction house were hooked up. The owner of the treasure wanted only magical dusts thus everyone tried to bid for it. By the end, VIP lounge #3 won it by bidding 500 magical dusts.
"And last but not the least, ahhh, you will be excited to see this." Manager Xina heaved a sigh of relief after the third treasure being auctioned off, "This is an unexpected thing and we have not calculated it. None will ever think that this item still exists in this vast world!"
"Wham!" Slowly, something descended from the above level of the stage. It was a shining bar of gold with magnificent aura encircling it.
Everyone watched with bated breaths as they observed it carefully, afraid that they were mistaken.
"Eternity Gold?!" One alchemist shot up from his seat and said, "Impossible! This gold should have long disappeared from the world!"
Manager Xina smiled and explained, "Ladies and gentlemen, this is really an Eternity Gold. And it's one bar at that. We know how vital this gold is to concoct various medicines. In fact, it could even strengthen weapons by several levels. Our client has fortunate trusted us with this and here it is."
"Just get to the point and tell us what that client wants!" Other lineages couldn't sit still also. Eternity Gold had a great impact to the world. It was one of the highly sought treasures of Nine Heavens, "What does he want? Dao weapons? Physique scrolls?"
They couldn't sit still anymore. The appearance of the Eternity Gold had shaken their soul. Everyone planned against each other. As of now, even the best friends had to go throats with each other for this bar of gold.
Jin Rou smiled after seeing this situation. The vital position of Eternity Gold would never fade. Many and many would still try to acquire it despite the low chances of finding it. He didn't feel a sting about giving out one bar. After all, his galaxy vaults had a pile of it that only Han Li knew where it were located!
"Gentlemen, please calm down." Manager Xina didn't expect that their reactions would be this severe. Nevertheless, she was still calm and said, "The client has indeed set up what he wants. However, it isn't dao weapons or physique scrolls. It's not even heavenly arts."
"Then what?" Someone asked. They already calculated their bets and no one would be stopping who.
"Gold. The client wants gold." Manager Xina smiled and answered, "As in the gold that people use as currency."
Everyone was silenced after hearing this. They didn't know what to say. Eternity Gold in exchange for golds which they use? Wasn't it degrading the value of the Eternity Gold?
Anyway, it was a great opportunity for all the lineages here since everyone had a fair chance of getting it!
"100,000 gold." The person from VIP#1 spoke without hesitation, "Gentlemen, this Eternity Gold is very important to our sect, please do me a favor and let us have it."
"If it's another day, I would have. But even if you are a powerful person, we won't give it to you easily! 150,000 gold!" A man from the lower seat spoke as he increased the bid. He was also adamant in getting the gold.
"200,000 gold!"
"230,000 gold!"
"270,000 gold!"
The bid didn't decrease from 30,000 gold and it's still rising in a heartbeat. 200,000 gold was already too much even for a lineage as it was almost a yearly budget. However, they were willing to exhaust their gold for this Eternity Gold.
After five minutes, the bid had rised up to 400,000 gold.. Many had stopped bidding as it was too much out and out of the range of what they could afford.
