Eternal Reverence Chapter 740: River of Blood

Chapter 740: River of Blood

For the next few days, it was rather carefree.

Li Fuchen would give occasional pointers to Wu Zhuo and Wu Xi, while he would spend the rest of the time strolling the Half Mountain City.

On this day, by the window seat of a teahouse, Li Fuchen asked the Barbaric Peak Great Emperor about the killer of Wu Zhuo’s parents.

Since he was the siblings’ master now, he would need to inherit their hopes of revenge.

Li Fuchen didn’t ask about it because he was creating the Primary Extreme Sword Art and didn’t wish to be distracted.

The Barbaric Peak Great Emperor sighed and said, “It is the saint clan, Hai Clan.”

The Hai Clan had turned into a saint clan during the recent years. During the earlier years, the Hai Clan and Wu Clan had a grudge. There was a serious hatred towards the previous Wu Clan Head. Therefore, once the Hai Clan produced a saint, the first thing they did was to take revenge. However, the Wu Clan did have the cla.s.s 9 low-tier array for protection and it wasn’t really possible for the Hai Clan to destroy the Wu Clan. But it was unfortunate for Wu Zhuo and Wu Xi who lost their parents and grandfather at such a young age.

“A low-level saint huh?”

Li Fuchen wasn’t really confident to contest with a saint.

He might be able to contest with a low-tier demonic beast overlord. But in the same realm, saints were much stronger than demonic beast overlords.

…

Soon enough, the auction started.

A city would be considered flourishing with dozens of great emperors. However, on the auction day, there were hundreds of great emperors that visited and there were plenty who were rather famous.

“Look, it is the Sky Rend Great Emperor.”

“The Sky Rend Great Emperor is ranked top 800 on the Great Emperor Rankings. I didn’t think he would be here too.”

“The Serene Sovereign is here too. The Serene Sovereign is ranked higher than the Sky Rend Great Emperor.”

(TL note: Sovereigns are also great emperors. So far, the novel doesn’t explain why there is a difference in t.i.tle)

The night time of the Saint Spirit Continent would only prevent normal people from traveling. For great emperors, the night time wasn’t dangerous, unless, they were very unlucky to encounter a demonic beast great ruler or peak-tier demon rulers. Therefore, the great emperors within a city would normally be replaced by another group of great emperors after a few years. Whenever an auction was happening, nearby great emperors would come over to partic.i.p.ate.

Just as the auction was going to start, a heavy-weight cla.s.s figure arrived.

Ss!

Many people took in a cold breath.

Within their sights, a blood-haired middle-aged man walked over. With each step, it felt as though there was a wave of blood sea surging over. Everyone involuntarily took a step back.

The Blood Emperor was ranked 57th on the Great Emperor Rankings. His Blood Heaven True Technique was nearly invincible.

(TL note: I’m quite sure this Blood Emperor is a different one)

***

At the auction, Li Fuchen came together with the Barbaric Peak Great Emperor.

Inside the VIP private room, the Barbaric Peak Great Emperor looked outside and clicked his tongue. “There are so many great emperors, at least 500 or 600!”

His sight wasn’t as great as Li Fuchen. He was only able to see those who revealed their qi presences, he wasn’t that certain about those who hid their qi presences.

Li Fuchen said, “There are over 1000.”

Once the auction hall was at full house, the auctioneer walked up with a calm qi presence.

Bang!

With a knock of the auction hammer, the auction had now officially begun.

This auction was extremely grand and there were thousands of auction items. Many of them were very rare.

Four hours later, all of the auction items that Li Fuchen listed were sold apart from the White Bone Saint Crown. Li Fuchen calculated a little and found out that the total auction price reached around 48 million high-grade spirit stones. It was more than three times higher than the base price.

“For the 888th auction item, it is a heaven cla.s.s high-tier artifact saber. The Black Extreme Saber. The starting price is 5 million high-grade spirit stones. Each bid must not be lower than 10,000 high-grade spirit stones.”

Once the Black Extreme Saber appeared, it caused an uproar.

Just like martial arts, heaven cla.s.s high-tier equipment was very precious too. To become a great emperor, it was crucial if one did or didn’t possess a heaven cla.s.s high-tier martial art. To become a top-cla.s.s great emperor, it was crucial if one did or didn’t possess a heaven cla.s.s high-tier equipment. As compared to heaven cla.s.s mid-tier equipment, heaven cla.s.s high-tier equipment had a price that was dozens of times higher.

“5.2 million.”

“5.5 million.”

“6 million.”

“7 million.”

The price of the Black Extreme Saber was climbing rapidly like a rocket.

“10 million.” Li Fuchen raised his plate.

The Barbaric Peak Great Emperor looked at Li Fuchen with a confused expression.

Li Fuchen was a swordsman, why would he need a saber?

Li Fuchen didn’t explain. He wasn’t buying the saber for himself. Yan Qingwu was a saber user and had a special affection for black sabers. Li Fuchen was planning to purchase the saber as a gift for her.

“12 million.” An imposing and forceful voice echoed.

It was the Sky Rend Great Emperor.

The Sky Rend Great Emperor was also a saber user, however, his current saber was only a heaven cla.s.s mid-tier artifact saber. If he could obtain this Black Extreme Saber, his strength would certainly push to top 500 or even top 300.

“15 million.”

Li Fuchen wasn’t lacking in high-grade spirit stones. Even without adding on his profit from the auction, he had more than 100 million high-grade spirit stones. 15 million high-grade spirit stones were considered nothing.

“18 million. This brother, please give me, the Sky Rend Great Emperor some face.” The Sky Rend Great Emperor’s voice was transmitted into Li Fuchen’s ear.

The auction hall was isolated by an array to prevent anyone from getting threatened and wouldn’t dare to make the bid.

However, the auction hall’s array was a quasi-cla.s.s 9 array. The Sky Rend Great Emperor used some force and was still able to transmit his voice.

Li Fuchen didn’t bother about the Sky Rend Great Emperor and made a bid of 20 million.

The Sky Rend Great Emperor had a sunken expression and raised the price to 21 million.

“This brother, even if you can obtain it, you cannot protect it. Why don’t you sell me this favor?”

The Sky Rend Great Emperor had to obtain the Black Extreme Saber, but he didn’t wish to spend too much high-grade spirit stones.

“25 million.” Li Fuchen raised the price by 4 million at once.

The Sky Rend Great Emperor didn’t continue transmitting anymore messages, but he already had the intention to kill in his heart. Since the opposition wasn’t giving him face, then he had no choice but to be merciless.

“Who is that person? He has such guts to actually contest with the Sky Rend Great Emperor.”

“I have seen the person inside. It seems like his cultivation is only at the 6th level of Law Phase Realm.”

“Tsk Tsk, a 6th level emperor actually dares to be so arrogant.”

Everyone was in a heated discussion.

Ultimately, the Black Extreme Saber was bid down by Li Fuchen.

“For the 889th auction item, it is a heaven cla.s.s high-tier Destiny Herb. There should be plenty of people present that are still 7-star bone frames. With the Destiny Herb, one will be able to instantly obtain the 8-star bone frame. Of course, an 8-star bone frame can also consume the Destiny Herb, pushing the bone frame to a higher level. Enough talk, the starting price of the Destiny Herb is 500,000 high-grade spirit stones.”

There wasn’t a need to explain more about how precious the Destiny Herb was.

Most of the people might be 8-star bone frames, but there was a gap between 8-star bone frames too. The gap would produce a difference from the cultivation and also perception.

“600,000.”

“700,000.”

“750,000.”

The bids came constantly.

“I didn’t think I would encounter a Destiny Herb on the Saint Spirit Continent.” Li Fuchen smiled and raised his plate as he bid 1.5 million high-grade spirit stones.

The price of 1.5 million high-grade spirit stones had frightened everyone. Most of the 7-star bone frames didn’t have so many high-grade spirit stones to compete. As for 8-star bone frames, they didn’t think that 1.5 million high-grade spirit stones would be worth it.

As for the Sky Rend Great Emperor who was a top-cla.s.s great emperor, his bone frame had already reached the extremity of 8-star. Furthermore, they had all consumed the Destiny Herb before and didn’t feel the effects from it. Therefore, they naturally wouldn’t compete in the bid.

Just like that Li Fuchen obtained the Destiny Herb for 1.5 million high-grade spirit stones.

The auction was gradually reaching the end and the atmosphere of the auction was reaching the pinnacle.

During this period of time, a heaven cla.s.s high-tier artifact armor appeared and was bid down by the Blood Emperor for 40 million high-grade spirit stones.

Logically, the price of a heaven cla.s.s high-tier artifact armor shouldn’t just be 40 million high-grade spirit stones, however, no one dared to compete with the Blood Emperor.

Apart from the top 100 rankers on the Great Emperor Rankings, no one else dared to offend the Blood Emperor.

Even the Sky Rend Great Emperor and the Serene Sovereign gave up after a few bids.

Seeing that the auction was about to end, Li Fuchen’s expression turned dark.

As of now, the White Bone Saint Crown had yet to appear.

Perhaps the auction hall was planning to put the White Bone Saint Crown as the finale item, but Li Fuchen didn’t think things were that simple.

“I hope they wouldn’t force my hand.” Li Fuchen let out a turbid breath with his murderous intent being contained.

As expected, even after the finale item, the White Bone Saint Crown was nowhere to be seen.

“The Long Rainbow Auction is indeed daring.” Li Fuchen sneered with flickering eyes.

“Be prepared.”

At the backstage, the chief manager was being cautious. He didn’t believe that the auction hall couldn’t deal with Li Fuchen.

If it was some other item, they might consider at length. However, a heaven cla.s.s high-tier cardinal artifact was too important and it was rare even in auctions. Everyone would save it for themselves and no one would sell it in an auction.

After considering it for a few days, the chief manager decided to kill the White Bone Saint Crown.

The Long Rainbow Merchant Guild was backed by the saint clan, Gao Clan. The Gao Clan was developing merchant guilds to search for rare treasures to strengthen the clan.

If the White Bone Saint Crown was given as a tribute, the chief manager was certain he would be promoted.

“Let’s go.”

Li Fuchen didn’t make a move, instead, he left the auction hall with the Barbaric Peak Great Emperor.

As for the Black Extreme Saber and the Destiny Herb, after the prices were fixed, they had already been delivered to him.

“Chief Manager, he left.” A member of the auction hall whispered to the chief manager.

“It is good that he left. Everyone should work harmoniously. As the saying goes that amiability makes you rich.”

The chief manager let out a sigh of relief and revealed a trace of joy.

The chief manager still felt a little suspicious as Li Fuchen wasn’t the sort of person who was afraid of trouble. How could Li Fuchen leave things like that?

But so what? This was Half Mountain City, what could Li Fuchen do?

Even the Blood Emperor wouldn’t dare to create trouble in the city.

Of course, if Li Fuchen was the Blood Emperor, the chief manager wouldn’t dare to offend him.

After leaving the auction hall, Li Fuchen led the group out of the city.

He didn’t flip out in the auction because he was worried he might not be able to protect Wu Xi, Wu Zhuo, and the others. After all, he didn’t have the quasi-cla.s.s 9 ten thousand miles teleportation talisman anymore. Even if he had one, he shouldn’t take the risk.

After exiting the Half Mountain City, Li Fuchen asked the Barbaric Peak Great Emperor and the others to wait for him outside.

Wu Zhuo asked, “Master, where are you going?”

“To kill.”

After replying, Li Fuchen entered the city again.

Right now, the auction had already ended and everyone was walking out.

Li Fuchen sneered and walked inside.

Inside the auction hall, everyone had already left and the chief manager was arranging the matters after the auction.

“Chief Manager, he is back again!”

“Who!?” The chief manager raised his head and saw Li Fuchen.

Li Fuchen said indifferently, “I have already mentioned for you to think carefully before acting, otherwise I wouldn’t mind turning the Long Rainbow Auction Hall into a river of blood. It is a pity that you people didn’t bother about my words.”

“You dare?!”

The chief manager yelled out and waved his hand to activate the auction hall’s array. The horrific array power enveloped Li Fuchen.

Boom!

The Hand of Star’s qi power circulated and burst out with qi spirit, exploding the auction hall into smithereens. The so-called quasi-cla.s.s 9 array was smashed by Li Fuchen like a piece of tofu.

Pfff Pfff Pfff!

There was a burst of blood mist in the sky while the ground was turned into a river of blood.
