The Sky City Exchange was normally very lively, and today was the monthly auction, so it was very crowded.
Leng Jun had already found the location of the exchange the day before the auction.
At that time, the hall of the Exchange was filled with the names of the items to be auctioned.
In the weapons department, many of the steel and steel swords came from Sky City's smithy, and their prices varied from a few hundred yuan to a few hundred yuan.
In addition, there were also all sorts of weapons shops and private collections of different cities in the Southern Continent.
The prices were also different, ranging from the cheapest hundreds of pieces, to over ten thousand Deity Coin s.
At the bottom of every item that was about to be auctioned, there was a detailed introduction of the item. Leng Jun went around the place yet he did not find anything that suited his needs.
The only sword that Leng Jun was interested in was the one named Crystal Sword.
The Crystal Sword, a divine weapon from the ancient era, was the personal sword of the first generation Earth Demon Clan Patriarch.
Legend has it that it possesses the power to destroy the heavens and the earth, and that it is also known as the devil sword.
The starting price was eight hundred thousand Deity Coin.
Leng Jun was very interested in this Crystal Sword, but after seeing the starting price, he was disappointed.
However, in the end, he decided to participate in this auction.
His target, was still the same Crystal Sword.
Leng Jun had his own thoughts. Even if he couldn't bid for the Crystal Sword, he would still be able to find out who the buyer was.
When the time came, they would steal or rob it. They would think of ways to get it.
Leng Jun came to the Sky City Exchange for the second time. Only then did he know that the auction was actually not here.
The real auction was held in the largest building in the Sky City, the Sky Arena, as mentioned by the blacksmith.
Sky Arena had a history of more than a thousand years, it was a place where Swordsman fought to the death.
However, since the beginning of the sky city's martial arts ban, the competition arena had been abandoned.
Later on, there were merchants who took a fancy to this place, and set up an exchange outside the competition arena. They also transformed the Sky Arena into the largest auction house in the entire Southern Continent, and even in the entire Heavenly God Continent.
Leng Jun never thought that Sky City's auction would be so popular. By the time he reached the auction house, the good seats were already sold out.
In the end, Leng Jun bribed the guards of the auction house to get a ticket.
The whole auction house was a circular structure, surrounded by spectators and bidders.
According to the different levels, there were a total of four areas.
The first area was the VIP area, which was usually empty, prepared for nobles who might come.
The second area is the VIP area, which is usually a place where people from all over the country are rich and powerful or have been specially invited to take their seats.
The third area was the auction area, which was also divided into several levels. According to the amount of security they had, the seats they sat in would be different as well.
This arrangement was to prevent anyone from bidding maliciously.
The final area was the audience area. Of course, depending on the location, there would be a corresponding fee.
Leng Jun did not manage to buy a seat ticket, so he could only find a seat at the top to watch the scene unfold.
However, from his vantage point, he could see everything clearly.
In the center of the auction house was a large round table. On the round table was a mechanism, and all items being auctioned and the host of the auction house would be raised from the mechanism.
After the auction started, Leng Jun knew that not all of the items displayed the day before would be auctioned off in this auction house. Only those items that were worth more than a hundred thousand Deity Coin would be auctioned off here.
Those below that price were all held outside the exchange.
As long as you bid on the items you like, and no one offers a higher price for a certain period of time, the goods will belong to the bidder.
This way, they could protect each other's identities and increase their safety. It could also prevent people like Leng Jun from wanting to kidnap auctioned items.
Of course, the downside of this was that many of the items obtained illegally would also be auctioned off here, because the Exchange would not question the source of the items.
The Sky City Exchange was so popular because of this.
Of course, if the auctioneer was willing, the auctioneer could also publicly announce the auctioneer.
Many merchants would also choose to publicize the owner of the goods after obtaining the treasures, as this would increase the reputation of the merchants.
After auctioning dozens of items one after another, it was finally time for the "Crystal Sword" that Leng Jun was paying attention to.
Got it.
However, after seeing the real Crystal Sword, Leng Jun was a little disappointed.
The "Crystal Sword"
It was about the size of an ordinary iron sword and did not have a sheath, so the entire blade could be seen clearly.
Leng Jun could not differentiate between the "Crystal Sword"
Was it really made from crystal? However, the Crystal Sword was completely transparent, and its material seemed to be something like a stone. It was also quite heavy, so when the two robust men carried it up, they found it to be somewhat strenuous.
Seeing that the Crystal Sword was placed on stage, Leng Jun heard the people around starting to discuss.
"Heh, the boss of the Appreciation Pavilion took out this thing to trick people again."
"That's right. He even said that it was an ancient divine artifact and that the Infernal King's sword was actually just a rock."
"That shouldn't be any ordinary stone right? I heard it's a crystal, it must be very valuable."
"What is it worth? It is to lie to you ignorant people. Even if it was a crystal, it was only the most worthless white crystal. With such a large piece, it would be reasonable to say that it was worth a few thousand Deity Coin. To ask for eight hundred thousand Deity Coin, you sure are an evil merchant. "
"…"
The group of people were talking at once, but they all thought that the "Crystal Sword" was about the same.
Not much.
Sure enough, even if the host were to expose the truth, the final "Crystal Sword"...
It was still a stream.
However, according to the rules of the auction, if no one bid on an item because of its high price, the item could be sold for a lower price before continuing the auction.
However, this kind of price reduction could only be done twice in each auction.
However, that "Crystal Sword"
Even after the number of Deity Coin dropped from eight hundred thousand to five hundred thousand, and then to three hundred thousand, the result was that no one was interested in them.
In the end, the only thing they could do was to confirm that it was a filming, causing the audience to laugh at them.
"Crystal Sword!"
After being carried down, the auctioneer coughed lightly and shouted, "Everyone, although the Crystal Sword is auctioned off, everyone should keep their eyes open for the next auction item.
This is because this auction item is an extremely rare treasure in my life.
Everyone, you've finally arrived today. This trip was definitely worth it.
Noticing the curiosity of the surrounding people jumping up, the auctioneer suddenly became silent.
Just when everyone was getting impatient from waiting, the host shouted out, "Everyone, please have a look. Exquisite quality ruby — Blood of God!"
A corner of the red cloth covering the platform was lifted, and an egg-sized ruby appeared in front of them.
After everyone exclaimed, the host shouted again, "Everyone, do you think that this will be the climax of today's auction? You are wrong! Open your eyes, please, and you will see a miracle that you have only seen once in your life — four blood tears of God of the same size. "
As the host said this, the entire red cloth was lifted, and four dazzling rubies appeared in front of everyone.
