  Song Chengjiang waved his hands nonchalantly, and laughed out loud at Chu Yun's attempt to hide his actions earlier. Such magnanimity was indeed rare in this world!

  "Also, I don't have that much money on me, but I will definitely return it to you in the future!"

  Chu Yun knew that he owed Song Chengjiang a favor this time, and he also offended He Jun because of him, but there was no other way it would be.

  "This is what I promised you earlier. There's no need to be courteous!"

  Song Chengjiang did not mind this amount of money.

  "Hello honored guests, I am here to deliver the items for the auction!"

  Very quickly, a voice rang out from outside the private box. It turned out that the members of the Qingzhou Hall had come to send off the Heavenly Firmament Chapter.

  Chapter 82 - Grade Nine Fire Ganoderma

  It was a carefully wrapped box. After opening it, he saw that it was filled with an ancient aura. It was naturally the Blue Wind Incantation.

  Chu Yun took a deep breath, and carefully flipped open the Blue Sky Technique, carefully searching.

  If what Tang Zixian said was true, the fragment must be inside.

  Indeed, in the goatskin scroll, there waiece of bronze that was stained with rust and full of traces of time erosion.

  Chu Yun could immediately tell that this was a fragment of the Bronze Key! He picked up the fragment from the Bronze Key and took out his own piece from his spatial ring. The two pieces of the Bronze Key were attracted to each other and actually fused together to form an incomplete Bronze Key.

  This bronze key was not perfect, it was obviously missing one, and the last bronze key was on He Jun's body.

  "Is this the Bronze Key?" This old man's horizons have truly expanded! "

  Song Chengjiang stared at the bronze key, and could not help but exclaim.

  Back then, many Xuan Wu Realm experts fought until their heads bled, but in the end, they discovered that the so called Sword and Saber Graveyard wasn't as mystical as the legends said. It was only the graves of some Genuine Force practitioners. The most precious thing inside was nothing else but that fine pill — the Crimson Dragon Royal Grade Pill.

  In addition, the bronze key had been broken into three pieces, making it extremely difficult to search for it. Especially since one of them was in the hands of Blade Saint Hu Yi, this made most of the people give up on the idea of collecting the bronze key fragments.

  It wasn't that the best quality pills were worthless, but that the things in the Sword and Saber Graveyard weren't worth the trouble of spending so much effort on!

  It was just like how an item was worth a million, but if one wanted to obtain it, they would have to pay several times the price. There was no need for that.

  Especially for those Xuan Wu Realm Rankers, their time was extremely precious. It was completely not worth it to waste too much energy on the Bronze Key.

  As such, the sword and sabre tomb became useless, it waity to forgo the taste of food.

  However, to Chu Yun, the things inside the Sword and Saber Graveyard were extremely attractive. In addition, he had inherited a fragment and map from Saber Saint Hu Yidao. With such an innate advantage, he would definitely explore it all the way to the end!

  "Elder Song, it's all thanks to you today. If not for you, I definitely wouldn't have been able to compete against He Jun."

  Chu Yun kept the Bronze Key, and expressed his gratitude.

  "This is nothing, just a simple matter." Later, when you leave with this old man, He Jun will definitely not dare to have any ill intentions! "

  Although Song Chengjiang was curious about the bronze key, he was only curious, and did not have any other thoughts.

  "Alright."

  Chu Yun nodded.

  The auction continued.

  "Fifteen million silver! Are these rich people full?"

  "Ai, what a waste, such a waste!"

  "It could also be an auction request, don't take it too seriously!"

  "From what I see, it has to be a backer. Anyone who isn't mentally ill wouldn't do suching as throwing money around, right?"

  Even though there were already several items being auctioned off, some of the warriors were still discussing about the sky-high price that had been offered by the Blue Wind Incantation. Of course, they were all the kind that couldn't eat grapes that said they were sour. Some of them were even full of cynicism and kept cursing.

  "The next item up for auction is an extremely rare thousand year spirit medicine — — Grade Nine Fire Spirit Ganoderma. This elixir could be used as the main ingredient to make many kinds of elixirs, and it could even be used directly. Its effects were extraordinary! "After consuming it, you will be able to fully channel the spirit energy within your body and turn it into a flame. Tuman martial soul that is related to fire, the Grade Nine Fire Spirit Ganoderma can be said to be a great tonic that you absolutely cannot miss!"

  The female auctioneer didn't introduce too much to the Grade Nine Fire Spirit Zoysia, because just the word "thousand years" was enough to explain the value of this spirit medicine.

  A thousand year old elixir waitle in itself!

  Once ovehousand years had passed, the elixir would give birth to intelligence, and its effects would naturally increase by a large margin.

  Thus, a thousand year old elixir was something that countless martial artists pursued!

  "Everyone should be clear about the value of this Grade Nine Fire Spirit Ganoderma. The starting bid is 15 million!" "The bid increase must not be less than one million!"

  The auctioneer had a bright smile on her face. Previously, when she had sold the Heavenly Blue Secret Art at sucigh price, she had been extremely surprised. At the same time, she was also unavoidably happy. As for the Grade Nine Fire Spirit Ganoderma, it could be foreseen that it would absolutely be sold arice of no less than 25 million!

  "The starting price is 15 million! That's too much!"

  "Every bid can't be less than a million. This is too overbearing."

  "This ihousand year old elixir, the price is not something we can afford!" Whether it's expensive or not, what does it have to do with us? "

  "Yeah, this thing is the target of competition between those aristocratic families and sects. We, the unspecialized characters, will just watch the show."

  The audience began to discuss.

  "Teacher!"

  A hint of fervor flashed through the beautiful eyes of Xia Yufu, who had been silent all this time.

  "Yes."

  Song Chengjiang nodded. He looked at the Grade Nine Fire Spirit Zoysia on the auction stage and was filled with confidence.

  "Old Song, is the spirit medicine you're talking about the Grade Nine Fire Spirit Ganoderma?"

  Chu Yun asked.

  Xia Yufu's martial spirit was the Purple Radiant Crimson Flame Saber. Although it was a blade, it had a lot to do with fire.

  "That's right, this Grade Nine Fire Spirit Zoysia is extremely important to us. This is also the purpose of our trip! "Because of Yu Fu's martial spirit, we urgently need some extremely strong fire-attribute thousand year old elixirs to refine pills. This Grade Nine Fire Spirit Ganoderma is one of the essential herbs …"

  Song Chengjiang's gaze was indifferent. He did not take the initiative to call out a bid, but instead waited quietly for someone else to call out a bid.

  In any case, he had to get the Grade Nine Fire Spirit Ganoderma.

  "16 million!"

  "17 million!"

  … ….

  Because the price of a Grade Nine Fire Spirit Ganoderma was already very high, the various forces were extremely careful when raising the price. No one was willing to raise the price too high. If he raised the price like crazy, even if he managed to get it in the end, he would have to pay an unbearably huge price!

  Song Chengjiang quietly waited, he was not worried at all.

  His eyes were calm, without the slightest hint of anxiety.

  As the price kept ri
sing, when it reached twenty-one million, the other factions were obviously hesitating.

  This price was not a small one at all!

  If a Grade Nine Fire Spirit Zoysia wasn't a necessity, then no one would be willing to spend so much!

  "Twenty-five million!"

  Just as everyone was considering their options, the silent Elder Song spoke up.

  In one breath, he added four million, as if announcing to everyone that he was determined to obtain this Grade Nine Fire Spirit Ganoderma!

  The auctioneer immediately revealed a bright smile. The expected transaction price was so easily reached. This was something she had never expected.

  "It's the room that was just auctioned off at a sky-high price!"

  "I'm really convinced. There's actually someone who can call out sucrice. Is he a fool with a lot of money?"

  "It can't be, or him?"

  Many martial artists were dumbfounded.

  Just as the deal was about to be completed, a faint voice came from a nearby box, "26 million!"

  The person who called out the price, was Aoyun Sect's He Jun!

  Chapter 83 - Another Trouble

  After hearing He Jun's voice calling ourice, Song Chengjiang's expression changed slightly, which was a little unnatural.

  This was not something he had planned!

  Song Chengjiang was very clear in his heart that He Jun was taking his revenge! He must have felt indignant that he had stolen his Bronze Key Fragment. The only way to vent his anger was to raise the price of everything he wanted!

  "Teacher..."

  Xia Yufu wanted to say something but hesitated. Her beautiful face was filled with worry.

  "28 million!"

  Song Chengjiang gave Xia Yufeassured look and raised the price by another two million.

  "30 million!"

  He Jun was not one to be outdone. His voice was calm and contained no emotions.

  "Hiss!"

  "Thirty million!"

  "This price is really crazy!"

  "It's those two boxes bidding again?"

  Many warriors raised their heads high, looking at the two adjacent rooms.

  Song Chengjiang's expression changed quickly, and he snorted coldly: "Thirty-five million!"

  Although this price wasn't his limit, it far exceeded the value of the Grade Nine Fire Spirit Ganoderma.

  Chu Yun's face turned gloomy, he did not expect He Jun to take revenge on Song Chengjiang in such a malicious manner. Eccentric Song and the others had come for the Grade Nine Fire Spirit Zoysia. If they failed to obtain it because of him, it would be tantamount to being implicated by him.

  He Jun, you truly are a sinister villain!

  "36 million!"

  It could be seen that he was not in a hurry at all. What he wanted to do was to take his time and slowly torture Song Chengjiang, that was his true goal!

  "Old Song, our Elder He said that if you want this Grade Nine Fire Lingzhi, then use the fragment of the bronze key to exchange with him!"

  At this moment, a young man walked into the room.

  His attitude was obviously very polite, after all, Song Chengjiang was someone with a name, and was not someone that he, a disciple, could afford to offend.

  "Is thihreat to this old man?"

  Song Chengjiang's face revealed a smile, and then he said indifferently: "I will not hand over the Bronze Key Fragment, if he wants to continue bidding, then this old man will accompany him!"

  As he said that, Song Chengjiang laughed and said, "40 million!"

  40 million!

  This was already nearly double the original price of the Grade Nine Fire Spirit Ganoderma!

  The auctioneer was so happy that she almost fainted. She was simply too excited.

  "Alright."

  The young man nodded and left with a complicated look in his eyes.

  Not long after, He Jun's voice came from the neighboring private room: "Forty-five million!"

  Song Chengjiang refusing to exchange made him angry from embarrassment. From the looks of it, he was prepared to fight to the death!

  "Teacher, stop bidding."

  Just as Song Chengjiang was about to continue calling out prices, Xia Yufu hurriedly pulled him back and shook his head. "This Grade Nine Fire Spirit Zoysia is simply outrageously expensive. A Grade Nine Fire Spirit Zoysia is indeed what I need, but it isn't necessarily the only thing I need.

  Even though Xia Yufu really wanted the Grade Nine Fire Spirit Zoysia, she did not want to see her teacher in a difficult situation.

  A look of helplessness flashed past Song Chengjiang's eyes. In truth, he did not want to give up, but it was just that He Jun, who had messed up the situation, was truly hateful.

  He was very clear, even if he called out the price of fifty million, He Jun would still follow up without hesitation!

  Xia Yufu was right, at this point, there was no point in continuing to pester her.

  He Jun wanted the Bronze Key Fragment, and he didn't hesitate to pay a huge price. But Song Chengjiang was very clear that he had already given the Bronze Key Fragment to Chu Yun, so it was impossible for him to give it back!

  Chu Yun said apologetically, "Elder Song, my apologies, but it was all because of me that you did not manage to get the Grade Nine Fire Spirit Ganoderma."

  "Chu Yun, this has nothing to do with you, don't think too much about it."

  Song Chengjiang shook his head, he did not think that this matter had anything to do with Chu Yun, it was purely He Jun's narrow-mindedness. In addition to that, he was also extremely anxious. That was why he used such an extreme method, one that was on the verge of breaking all decorum, to threaten him and make him hand over the Bronze Key Fragment that he had auctioned.

  It was just that He Jun did not expect that since he was auctioning it for Chu Yun, there was simply no possibility of returning it.

  Moreover, although a Grade Nine Fire Spirit Zoysia was rare, it wasn't only this one; even if one wasn't able to find a Grade Nine Fire Spirit Zoysia, there were still many thousand year old spirit medicines that could be used as substitutes.

  At most, He Jun could only be considered to be blocking his path, but he himself had cut off his only path!

  "Forty-five million, once!"

  "45 million, twice!"

  "45 million, three times!" "Deal!"

  The auctioneer's face was filled with ecstasy. The grade nine Fire Spirit Zoysia in his hands actually bid twice the price, wouldn't the commission double as well? In addition to the 10 million yuan he had just auctioned off! No matter what, it was all thanks to the two VIP boxes that he spent so much money on!

  The moment the auctioneer hammered the hammer, He Jun crushed the incomparably precious purple sand pot in his hands into pieces in the Aoyun Sect's box.

  His expression was incomparably gloomy and his entire body was trembling uncontrollably from anger.

  "Elder He …"

  The rest of the disciples all looked at He Jun in fear, not daring to even breathe, as they kept quiet.

  "This Song Chengjiang, he's fooling around with me!"

  He Jun clenched his teeth, the sinister light in his eyes could almost swallow a person whole.

  "He actually stopped bidding! He actually stopped raising the price! "Tell me, what do you think I need this Grade Nine Fire Spirit Ganoderma for?"

  He Jun raised his head, his entire body brimming with killing intent, like a berserk beast: "Double the price, and it still ended up in my hands, then what do you think the meaning of my actions are? If I were to take the Grade Nine Fire Spirit Zoysia to exchange with him, would he give me the Bronze Key Fragment? "Hmm?"

  The disciples did not even dare to breathe loudly. They knew very well that He Jun was currently extremely angry, and if anyone dared to cause him even the slightest bit of displeasure, they would probably suffer!

  "Say something! You are all my disciples and your talent is extraordinary. Why are you acting like a bunch of pigs now?"

  He
Jun's face distorted as his eyes swept across the few of them with blood red.

  Those who were met with his gaze all trembled and lowered their heads in fear.

  He Jun did not really want to participate in the competition. Before he came, he had heard that Song Chengjiang's goal this time was the Level 9 Fire Spirit Zoysia. Moreover, this Grade Nine Fire Spirit Zoysia was completely useless to He Jun. The reason he kept raising the price was because he wanted to take revenge on Song Chengjiang. In the end, even if he could get it, he would have to pay more!

  Sure enough, Song Chengjiang started to compete with him without hesitation, which confirmed He Jun's thoughts even more.

  He had originally thought that after raising the price to fifty million, he would just leave it at that. With Song Chengjiang's foundation, taking out fifty million to buy a Grade Nine Fire Spirit Zoysia would definitely be enough to make his heart ache for a while.

  Unexpectedly, when the price was raised to forty-five million, Song Chengjiang had already given up on competing!

  What should he do?

  The Grade Nine Fire Spirit Ganoderma could be considered to have fallen into his hands!

  He Jun was so angry that he wanted to curse. Not only did he not obtain the Bronze Key Fragment, he had even bought a chicken ribs like Nine Fire Ganoderma for a large price.

  Before the auction ended, Song Chengjiang brought Xia Yufu and him out of the Qing Xia Hall.

  He Jun did not follow him out. He had previously honestly told Song Chengjiang what he was thinking because he wanted Song Chengjiang to give him the bronze key. After all, in terms of battle power, the two were almost the same. Even if they were to fight, they would not be able to gain any advantage.

  Originally, he thought that Song Chengjiang would go along with the flow and accept his favor.

  In this way, the task became difficult.

  The fact that He Jun was secretly collecting the Bronze Key Fragments was not to be exposed, otherwise Aoyun Sect would definitely settle the score with him!

  Not only did he not touch the meat, but it was smeared all over with blood, and his weakness was also exposed. This time, He Jun had lost completely!
