Chapter 418: Chapter 417: Marking Up the Price

When picking celestial treasures, is it possible to slow down their falling speed? No problem.In battle, if the opponent already knows about one's own bloodline ability, and then one adds the control of time at the peak of a Second Level Bloodline, how many times would the opponent die? Sёarᴄh the novёlF~ire.net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

The first time the Bloodline Array Plate appeared, it was destined to dazzle the stage. The Spirit Rhinoceros Commerce Association was keen on this point, which is why they spared no effort in providing the Time Crocodile essence blood to the Array Master, hoping for the array disk's debut.

The auctioneer did not disclose the origin of this array disk but mentioned that it was provided by the Spirit Rhinoceros Commerce Association. So, what degree of influence would the Spirit Rhinoceros Commerce Association gain in high society through the auction of this array disk, especially when it was preceded by the Stone of Refuge and the Tianyang Flower? This series of maneuvers even made Tang San admire the Spirit Rhinoceros Commerce Association because he couldn't figure out how they managed all these clever moves. As far as he knew, the Spirit Rhinoceros Commerce Association didn't have the support of an Emperor behind it, just the Peacock Demon Clan.

"Eight thousand!" Just as Tang San was rejoicing, the bidding price had already risen to eight thousand Elemental Coins.

Eight thousand Elemental Coins—this was the price that ordinary divine tools had fetched before.

Rarity dictates value, not to mention the ability to control time.

Could it surpass ten thousand?

The answer was affirmative!

In less than five minutes, the price of the Time array disk had already broken ten thousand Elemental Coins.

Zhang Haoxuan's voice was trembling when it came through, "Struck it rich, Xiao Tang, you've struck it rich!"

"Master, stay calm. This thing, it's one of a kind." Indeed, when Tang San created this Time array disk, he had already decided that it would be a unique piece. Only something unique can have the greatest value. Moreover, he needed the remaining Time Crocodile blood for purification and cultivation back in his hometown.

Of course, if the Spirit Rhinoceros Commerce Association could provide him with divine-ranked Time Crocodile essence blood, that would be another story. But to craft a divine-ranked Time Crocodile array disk, he would have to wait until he became a God level strong person in the future. He was still far from that point.

Creating this Ninth Stage peak Time Crocodile array disk, Tang San even utilized a bit of his divine consciousness; without controlling it with divine consciousness, he wouldn't have been able to complete some of the key Formation integrations. Despite the small size of the array disk, it embedded a total of thirty-six formations, which after fully overlapping, achieved the effect before him. Among them, there were nine formations alone to prevent the theft of the core, interlinked with one another. Any probing would lead to its self-destruction.

However, the subsequent bidding prices still far exceeded Tang San's expectations.

Auction Room 116.

Compared to Tang San's auction room, this cave was much more spacious. It was practically a suite. At this moment, inside the suite, two Spirit Rhinoceros Deer Beasts sat, one of whom Tang San recognized—it was naturally Xu Ziran. The other was an elder.

"Young Master, you're really going all out this time! Hahaha," the elder chuckled and said to Xu Ziran.

Xu Ziran smiled faintly and said, "If we don't take this opportunity to fleece them, it would be a waste, given the excellent item we're offering. Now let's see if it's the Skyscraper Commerce Association that takes the hit, or if the Time Crocodile Lineage bleeds heavily. Keep bidding, up to twenty thousand."

"Alright." The elder operated the crystal ball before him and completed another bid.

Xu Ziran spoke indifferently, "The value of this array disk itself, according to our assessment, is worth ten thousand Elemental Coins. I didn't expect that master could actually do it, managing to control even the profound secret of time within the array disk. The intricacy of its design far exceeds our judgment. However, for many people, this array disk is a must-have. When the Skyscraper Commerce Association hears that we're auctioning this item, I can imagine Fat Compiler's expression—absolutely gnashing his teeth, determined to uncover its mysteries. And the Time Crocodile Lineage is probably extremely interested in it too. Through this auction, I want to increase our Commerce Association's overall sales by thirty percent."

The elder laughed, "The Young Master is wise. But what if they don't follow along?"

Xu Ziran said, "We can retrieve it ourselves without a problem. Fine wine needs no bush, when we put it up for auction next time, the starting bid will be the price we paid today. Didn't the master say this item was the result of painstaking efforts and could not be replicated? He also needs time to recuperate. As long as it's one of a kind, there will be plenty of room to maneuver. Keep bidding, twenty-five thousand!"

At this moment, the auction had become increasingly intense.

In such times, the true capabilities of the bidders gradually became apparent. Those with deep pockets were qualified to continue in the auction.

Twenty-five thousand Elemental Coins. Even Tang San felt his heartbeat accelerate when he saw this price. After deducting the Ancestral Court's fees and the cost of blood essence, the value they would receive was enormous.

According to the rules, the Ancestral Court took a ten percent commission fee, plus two thousand for the blood essence cost. They would still have over twenty thousand Elemental Coins left! Twenty thousand Elemental Coins could almost build a small city.

Zhang Haoxuan did not send another message, perhaps he was too stunned. What's more terrifying was that the bidding price continued to soar.

"Twenty-six thousand Elemental Coins, for the first time. Good, twenty-seven thousand Elemental Coins, twenty-eight thousand Elemental Coins."

The price of Elemental Coins continued to climb, and such figures could only be described as terrifying.

Was such an array plate really worth so much? To think, back in the day in Jiali City's Grand Animal Fighting Arena, fighting tooth and nail, one could only earn a few dozen Elemental Coins! Making money in the Ancestral Court was indeed easier.

But then again, the climbing fees for the nobles' Holy Mountains brought in a soft-handed income every day. They were not short of money. For the true high nobility, a few tens of thousands of Elemental Coins was nothing.

When the price climbed to thirty thousand Elemental Coins, it finally paused.

"Thirty-one thousand Elemental Coins!" When this bid was made, the whole venue fell silent.

The bidder was none other than Xu Ziran in Auction Room 116.

"The price is too high, Young Master. No one is responding," sweat was beginning to form on the elder's forehead.

Xu Ziran still looked completely composed, smiling as though he was not rushed at all.

"Thirty-one thousand Elemental Coins for the first time, thirty-one thousand Elemental Coins for the second time. Any higher bids? Good, thirty-one thousand Elemental Coins, for the thir—," the Blue Fox auctioneer had just spoken when suddenly, another light lit up.

"Thirty-two thousand Elemental Coins. Good, bidder 119 bids thirty-two thousand Elemental Coins."

Xu Ziran smiled, and the elder beside him also showed relief. Finally, someone had bid again.

"Thirty-three thousand Elemental Coins." Immediately after, there was another bid, this time from Auction Room 221.

Xu Ziran's smile grew even more intense, "Let them fight for it. We just need to watch. This price is good. It will be enough to hurt their pockets for a while."

The elder whispered, "If it falls into the hands of the Skyscraper Commerce Association, will there be any trouble?"

Xu Ziran said, "They will certainly let their imaginations run wild, but only we and father truly know the origin of the array plate. As long as we offer enough benefits to the master, tying him completely to our chariot, we don't have to worry about the rest. With such a huge profit this time, do you think the master will appreciate our sincerity? After we return, prepare ten types of blood essence, at least Third Level Bloodline and above. Send them to the master. This will fund his research. In the future, when he creates more Bloodline Array Plates, we'll split the profits. We'll take thirty percent."
