Yang Kai even saw someone raise the price on the spot. The person eventually take the two Space Rings and told the owner of these two Space Rings that he was very interested in the contents of these two Space Rings, but it was difficult for him to make a decision. It would be best if he could add something more.
As a result, the two of them began adding their own chips…
As time passed, one powerful master after another ascended the stage, and the trade fair proceeded in an orderly manner.
In this kind of trade fair, each person only had one chance to step onto the stage, but there were also some who chose not to, so although there were many Open Heaven Stage masters present, after four hours or so, the first round had ended.
By the time the second round began, there were even fewer people who went up to trade.
Yang Kai watched with great interest.
This kind of trade fair was many times more high-end than the auction. Many rare and high rank resources were displayed, and besides cultivation resources, there were also some spirit pills, and rare treasures that greatly broadened his horizons.
On top of that, the cultivation resources that could appear at such a trade fair were at least Fifth Grade and Sixth Grade. Yang Kai couldn’t help feeling a bit confused.
After all, everyone here was a mid rank open heaven cultivator, so no one would use low rank resources to make a fool of themselves.
At a certain moment, a tall and straight middle-aged man with a white beard leapt onto the stage, looked around, and cupped his fists.
Yang Kai immediately recognized this man as the Thenderclap Hall's Ye Jian and couldn’t help gritting his teeth.
In the previous auction, he had hoped to win the Heavenly Yuan Positive Seal Pill and pill recipe at a price of more than thirty million, but it was this fellow who had kept raising the price to more than fifty million, causing him to spend twenty million more Open Heaven Pills in vain.
Twenty million was almost equivalent to the price of a sixth grade resource. This loss was not small.
Previously, during the first round of transactions, this Ye Jian had already gone on stage once and traded with another Open Heaven Stage cultivator for a sixth grade resource. Now that he had gone on stage again, it meant that he had a lot of good stuff.
Under everyone’s gaze, Ye Jian took out a long box that was as white as jade. As soon as he took it out, it exuded a cold aura, giving the entire secret room a refreshing feeling. The box was half an arm long and about four fingers wide. Mysterious patterns constantly appeared on the surface of the box.
“Heavenly Yin Jade?” Someone suddenly called out in surprise, while the others’s expressions suddenly changed, their eyes becoming hot.
“Brother Ye is quite generous, actually using a fifth grade Heavenly Yin Jade to create this Heavenly Yin Jade Box.”
Only now did Yang Kai realize that the seemingly pure white jade box was also a Fifth Grade resource, and it should also be a Yin Attribute resource. Otherwise, it wouldn’t have given off such a cold feeling.
Just this jade box alone was worth quite a lot of money, but what exactly was inside it?
On the side, the Proprietress suddenly reached out and poked Yang Kai, “Boy, the thing you wanted might have appeared.”
“What?” Yang Kai was stunned for a moment, unable to react.
The Proprietress gestured towards the round table.
On the round platform, Ye Jian smiled slightly and said to the person who had just spoken, “Brother Zhao has good eyesight, this is indeed a jade box made from a Fifth Grade Heavenly Yin Jade. However, the item this Ye wants to trade for this time is not this jade box, but something inside!”
Saying so, he placed a few seals on the jade box and poured a stream of light into it. The jade box slowly opened, revealing the content inside.
Everyone looked over with interest and saw that inside the jade box was a ginseng as thick as a baby’s arm. The ginseng’s roots were thick and it was obvious that it had been around for a long time, and it already had a human shape. This kind of ginseng was undoubtedly a ginseng king. Not only that, but this ginseng’s entire body was a strange pale gold color and exuded a strong Yang attribute energy.
Yang attribute Ginseng King!
Yang Kai’s body trembled as his heart pounded wildly, his eyes seemingly growing roots as he stared at the ginseng king.
The ginseng king should have been under a lot of restrictions and a strange force had sealed the Yang Attribute energy in its body, but even so, it was unable to completely seal it, instead constantly clashing with the Heavenly Yin Jade’s energy.
Just as everyone was lost in thought, Ye Jian’s voice rang out, “A Seventh Grade Primal Yang Profound Ginseng in exchange for some Sixth Grade cultivation resources. If any of you are interested, please bid.”
Yang Kai’s heart was beating faster, his lips were dry and his head was buzzing, only the words ‘Seventh Grade’ were still echoing!
Staring fixedly at the Primal Yang Profound Ginseng, Yang Kai couldn’t help feeling the urge to laugh wildly.
A Seventh Grade Yang Attribute resource, this Primal Yang Profound Ginseng was actually a Seventh Grade Yang Attribute resource!
In the previous round of transactions, Yang Kai hadn’t been able to see what he wanted, so he had given up. Who would have thought that in the second round, he would see a glimmer of hope?
Forcefully compressing his thoughts, Yang Kai secretly grit his teeth. No matter what, he had to obtain this Seventh Grade Primal Yang Profound Ginseng! If he missed this opportunity, who knows how long it would take for him to encounter it again.
Just as he was lost in thought, a series of whispers could be heard from the secret room. Many people released their Divine Senses to investigate the Seventh Grade Primal Yang Profound Ginseng’s condition, while others revealed looks of fanaticism.
Yang Kai observed, his expression and heart sank. This time, there were probably many competitors…
But no matter what, he had to obtain this Primal Yang Profound Ginseng.
A pair of eyes glanced over from the side and Yang Kai seemed to sense something. Turning his head, he saw that Senior Brother Guo was looking at him with a smile. When their eyes met, Senior Brother Guo’s expression became profound.
Yang Kai’s heart skipped a beat. This guy… couldn’t possibly be trying to ruin his good deed, right? Earlier, his words had been filled with the intent to win him over and warn him. Obviously, he knew that Yang Kai needed a Seventh Grade Resource, so if he were to ruin his good deed now, Yang Kai wouldn’t be afraid, nor would he know how much money he would have to spend.
Retracting his gaze as if nothing had happened, Yang Kai secretly thought about how he should bid to move this Ye Jian.
Generally speaking, even if it was of good value, cultivators would never exchange high grade resources for low grade ones, because high grade resources were even harder to find.
However, Thunderclap Hall, where Ye Jian was from, was a Second Class Force. The strongest of them was only a Sixth Order, and there was no Seventh Order Open Heaven Stage master.
Such a Primal Yang Profound Ginseng did not have much practical value to Thunderclap Hall, unless someone could advance to the Seventh Order in the future, they could instead exchange it for some Sixth Grade cultivation resources.
Yang Kai suddenly remembered that during the auction, this Ye Jian had mortgaged an item to the Red Clouds Auction before raising the price dramatically.
From the looks of it, what he had mortgaged back then was this Primal Yang Profound Ginseng!
A Seventh Grade Yang Attribute resource was worth at least two hundred million, or even more, so he was quite confident.
If he had really been ruthless enough to continue bidding, he and Yang Kai would have raised the price to over a hundred million.
However, when it came to fifty million, Ye Jian had withdrawn. It seemed that either he didn’t want to waste more Open Heaven Pills, or this Primal Yang Profound Ginseng didn’t belong to him, but the entire Thunderclap Hall.
Recalling the previous auction, Yang Kai’s eyes lit up as he secretly came up with an idea. At this moment, the Proprietress also secretly sent a voice transmission, which coincided with his idea.
The reason why Ye Jian was bidding for the Heavenly Yuan Positive Seal Pill was because of his son. Yang Kai had long noticed that there was a young man with thick eyebrows and big eyes beside Ye Jian, whose cultivation was similar to his own. This young man should be Ye Jian’s son.
Since Ye Jian was willing to spend fifty million to bid for the Heavenly Yuan Positive Seal Pill, it meant that he cared about his son. If he were to exchange the Heavenly Yuan Positive Seal Pill with him, it would definitely arouse his interest.
Of course, the value of one Heavenly Yuan Positive Seal Pill was far less than the value of the Primal Yang Profound Ginseng, but Yang Kai could make up for the difference.
Originally, he had wanted to carefully study the Heavenly Yuan Positive Seal Pill again, but now that the Primal Yang Profound Ginseng had appeared, he couldn’t care less. In any case, he had already scraped off some of the pill’s powder before, so it was enough for him to study.
With this thought in mind, Yang Kai stuffed two hundred million Open Heaven Pills into his Space Ring along with a Heavenly Yuan Positive Seal Pill.
Just as he was about to hand over the ring, to be safe, he stuffed another twenty million Open Heaven Pills into it.
It wasn’t appropriate for an Emperor Realm to do such a thing. Although most of the Cave Heaven Paradise should have noticed him by now, at such a trade fair, an Emperor Realm cultivator participating in a seventh grade resource trade was too conspicuous.
He immediately handed the ring to the Proprietress and asked her to trade it for him.
Inside the secret room, after a short period of shock and discussion, those who wanted to trade for this seventh grade resource had all taken out their chips.
Yang Kai looked around and found that there weren’t many people participating in this transaction, only a dozen or so, most of them were just observing.
In his heart, he understood that the people who participated in this transaction were all representatives of the Cave Heaven Paradise. They were all backed by first class forces and had the High Rank Open Heaven behind them, so they could use this Seventh Grade resource.
Although the other Second Class forces had a large number of people, none of them were able to use this Seventh Grade resource, so it was useless even if they traded it.
Sure enough, Senior Brother Guo also handed over a ring. The Proprietress turned to look at him and Senior Brother Guo smiled.
Yang Kai suddenly had a bad feeling, feeling more that this guy was going to cause trouble for him, so he couldn’t help worrying about his gains and losses. He didn’t know if he should place more Open Heaven Pills or not, but two hundred million plus another 20 million Open Heaven Pill was almost equal in value to a Seventh Grade Primal Yang Profound Ginseng, but who knew what price his competitors would offer?
Right now, he could only hope that Ye Jian truly valued his son. Only then would he be able to move him.
More than a dozen rings gathered in his hand and Ye Jian examined them one by one. He is also a Sixth Order Open Heaven Stage master and had a strong temperament and cultivation. Although the contents of these rings were extraordinary, his expression remained calm, making it difficult for others to tell what he was thinking.
On the other hand, Yang Kai was extremely nervous and secretly decided that if Ye Jian didn’t choose him, he would immediately raise the price! At worst, he would just have to add a few more Open Heaven Pills. In any case, today’s Primal Yang Profound Ginseng would belong to him!
