Chapter 1063: Chapter 1063: Threats During the Auction
It was only at this moment that Zhang Bin realized that the cultivators participating in the Hero Auction also included some Nascent Soul Stage Cultivators. However, they did not reveal their aura and majesty, so with Zhang Bin’s current strength, he couldn’t identify them as such powerful beings.
"Who is this man?"
Zhang Bin’s eyes scanned the many disciples of Daoyi Sect intensely.
"Never seen him before; he seems unfamiliar."
"He must have altered his appearance, so we can’t recognize him."
"..."
Many cultivators shook their heads repeatedly.
"Damn, such a powerful cultivator is also in disguise. Truly, the Hero Auction hides dragons and crouching tigers," Zhang Bin cursed inwardly.
The burly man on the stage grabbed the blue small sword, which rapidly started to grow.
Then he held the sword high, and True Qi rushed in rapidly.
With a sizzling sound, the sword emitted nearly a zhang-long blue cold light.
It was terrifying.
"Open for me!"
He shouted loudly and fiercely struck the Moonlight Treasure Box with the sword.
"Clang..."
Sparks flew.
The sound was exceptionally loud.
The Moonlight Treasure Box was indeed magical, completely undamaged.
Not even a single mark was left.
"Hiss..."
Everyone gasped, faces filled with shock and disbelief.
Even Zhang Bin was full of astonishment.
It must be noted that the Moonlight Treasure Box is not a magical treasure; it is merely made from some special material.
Such material can withstand the sharp attack of high-grade magical artifacts without any damage. Its hardness reached an astounding level.
Even Zhang Bin’s City of Gold could not achieve such hardness.
After all, over the long years, even the surface of the City of Gold had some marks.
Not to mention that the City of Gold couldn’t withstand the attack of the Taiqing Fall.
It would gradually break open.
Perhaps, the hardness of the Moonlight Treasure Box could compare to Xiao Qing. What kind of treasure is hidden within such a box? Zhang Bin wondered expectantly.
Many cultivators also looked forward to it.
"Good, good, good, truly hard to the extreme."
The burly man shouted excitedly.
His mouth opened again, spitting out green flames.
Wrapping around the Moonlight Treasure Box, burning fiercely.
The faces of the cultivators below showed deep apprehension and fear.
Because the green flames are quite advanced, equivalent to the peak of the Mundane Realm.
Typically, one must cultivate to the Ascension Realm to master green flames.
Could it be that the burly man had reached the Ascension Realm?
"Master, super master."
Zhang Bin also shouted inwardly.
Though he had seen even mightier masters like Mo Tunyu and You Jiuxuan, who respectively mastered more powerful green fire and blue fire, this burly man’s realm was certainly not as high as theirs; if cultivated to the same realm, he might master blue-colored or blue flames.
The green fire burned furiously for five minutes.
But the Moonlight Treasure Box still showed no signs of melting.
"Good treasure."
The burly man retrieved the green fire, examined it carefully, and praised.
Then he placed the Moonlight Treasure Box on a tray and flashed off.
The auction immediately commenced.
The price climbed rapidly.
Soon reaching three billion USD.
"Three-and-a-half billion."
Lin Yue, sitting next to Zhang Bin, made a move, charmingly shouting.
In the previous two auctions, whenever she made a bid, the numerous cultivators did not compete with her; she was just too beautiful, enchanting the hearts of men.
But this time, things were different.
"Four billion."
"Four-and-a-half billion."
"Five billion."
The cultivators continued to bid frantically.
"Eight billion."
The burly man who had just tested the Moonlight Treasure Box called out arrogantly.
His body exuded overwhelming majesty and aura, his gaze sweeping around like sharp swords.
Almost none of the cultivators dared to meet his gaze.
Clearly fearing the terrifying strength of this cultivator.
"Eight billion first time, eight billion second time..."
The auctioneer also shouted.
"Ten billion."
Zhang Bin made his move, fearlessly calling out.
"Bold."
The burly man snorted coldly, a chilling killing intent burst out, and an icy, indifferent gaze shot towards Zhang Bin like lightning.
Zhang Bin remained seated proudly, not sparing the burly man a glance.
"Ten billion first time, ten billion second time..."
The auctioneer continued to shout passionately.
"Ten billion and one."
The burly man continued to stare menacingly at Zhang Bin, yet called out.
"Eleven billion."
Zhang Bin did not hesitate, coldly shouted.
All the cultivators secretly broke into a cold sweat for Zhang Bin.
For a treasure that cannot be opened, offending a cultivator possibly at the Ascension or Nascent Soul Stage would be a really foolish act.
They truly couldn’t comprehend why Zhang Bin would do this.
Even the disciples of Daoyi Sect were somewhat puzzled.
And secretly worried.
"Precisely because this guy is strong, I must secure the Moonlight Treasure Box. Otherwise, this treasure will forever elude me," Zhang Bin muttered to himself.
He had once obtained a similarly hard treasure, namely Xiao Qing.
And Xiao Qing originated from the Innate Spirit Vine, an incredibly magical treasure, providing him immense benefits; otherwise, the seed he condensed could not have evolved into the Innate Spirit Seed.
Hence, he had high hopes for the Moonlight Treasure Box.
Such treasures he absolutely did not wish to miss.
"Young man, the treasure may be good, but life is more important."
An icy voice whispered in Zhang Bin’s ear.
It was transmitted by the burly man using a Secret Technique.
"You dare threaten me?"
Zhang Bin’s eyes also emitted icy light, projecting onto the burly man’s face, saying with transmission: "Do you think China is without anyone? If you have the guts show your true face? You coward hiding your face!"
Now, he represented the Chinese cultivators, how could he fear a cultivator who dared not show his true face?
If the opponent was truly an Ascension Realm Cultivator, he wouldn’t need to hide his face.
Clearly, the opponent was merely a Nascent Soul Stage Cultivator, at best Integration Realm Complete Perfection.
He feared neither the terrifying Mo Tunyu nor You Jiuxuan, naturally, he wouldn’t fear this opponent.
"Very well, you wait for me."
The burly man snickered, transmitting sound.
"Waiting, indeed waiting."
Zhang Bin sneered.
Subsequently, the burly man didn’t bid again, instead snickering continuously, clearly planning to rob afterward. Other cultivators also stopped bidding. Not out of fear of Zhang Bin, but out of fear of the burly man.
Because the burly man seemed determined to obtain the Moonlight Treasure Box.
Winning it would mean getting robbed.
They didn’t have the power to keep this treasure.
Soon, the Moonlight Treasure Box was delivered to Zhang Bin.
Zhang Bin carefully toyed with the box for a while, then placed it into Xiao Qing’s belly.
Such an exceptional treasure, only in Xiao Qing’s belly would it be safe.
Then the auction continued.
Silent until now, Lin Yue suddenly whispered in Zhang Bin’s ear: "I really like the Moonlight Treasure Box..."
At this, she paused.
Merely using soul-stirring eyes to gaze at Zhang Bin, a look of anticipation also surfaced on her delicate face.
Seemingly, she was hoping Zhang Bin would gift her the Moonlight Treasure Box.
