Open up and break into another world

“Hmm?” Xu Ming couldn't help but pause. “Why is the Heart-Piercing Arrow reacting? Could it be… is there some connection between the Heart-Piercing Arrow and this black arrow being auctioned?”

On the auction stage, the auctioneer with the goatee had a shrewd look in his eyes. He introduced with a smile, “This black arrow may seem like just an ordinary Chaos Divine Weapon; however, Master Fuchen feels that there is something special hidden within this arrow! As for what exactly is special, Master Fuchen can't say! Now, our Eternal Universe Auction House will put this black arrow here to sell; the starting price is ten thousand drops of Chaos Origin Fluid, and the one who is destined will obtain it!”

As soon as the auctioneer's voice fell, there was an uproar in the auction house.

“Master Fuchen is a famous appraiser in the Casting Star Realm! Even Master Fuchen feels that there is something extraordinary hidden within this arrow; then, this arrow is probably really extraordinary!”

“Maybe it's some incredible treasure, buy it and take a look!”

Immediately, several mighty figures became quite interested in this black arrow.

Of course, most of the mighty figures were still very rational!

“Master Fuchen said there is something special? — Heh! Who knows what exactly is special! Maybe it's just that this Chaos Divine Weapon has a little function attached to it, and then it was taken out to brag about; after all, the Eternal Universe Auction House isn't doing this for the first time!”

“That's right! If it were really some extraordinary treasure, how could the Eternal Universe Auction House easily take it out for auction? Moreover, it's being auctioned so cheaply!”

“An ordinary Chaos Divine Weapon only costs one thousand drops of Chaos Origin Fluid; even a mind-force type Chaos Divine Weapon generally costs three thousand drops of Chaos Origin Fluid! But this black arrow, the starting price is actually marked at ten thousand drops — the Eternal Universe Auction House really knows how to do business!”

“Heh! Let's see what price this ordinary Chaos Divine Weapon will be auctioned for!”

…

“Everyone!” The goatee auctioneer smiled and said, “Even Master Fuchen can't see through this black arrow; we put it up for auction, hoping that some destined person can discover the mystery within! — Without further ado, let the bidding begin!”

At this time of the auction, it was actually just the "warm-up stage." The treasures that were taken out for auction were just some not-so-valuable items; the truly precious ones haven't appeared yet!

“Ten thousand drops of Chaos Origin Fluid!”

“Eleven thousand drops!”

“Twelve thousand drops…”

Immediately, many mighty figures participated in the auction — although, most of the mighty figures suspected whether this black arrow was worth the price; however, after all, the price was not expensive, so many still had the idea of buying it back to try.

Soon, the price of this black arrow was called up to thirty thousand drops of Chaos Origin Fluid.

Then, there were fewer and fewer mighty figures bidding, and the voices of the quotations became sparse — after all, this was already ten times the price of an ordinary mind-force type Chaos Divine Weapon; if the price went up again, not many people would be willing to buy it.

“It's time to make a move!” Xu Ming thought to himself.

Since this black arrow is related to the Heart-Piercing Arrow, it must have something extraordinary, and maybe it will be an opportunity.

Since Xu Ming already owns the Heart-Piercing Arrow, as long as the price is not too outrageous, he will definitely bid for this black arrow to study it.

“Thirty-one thousand five hundred drops! — Is there a higher price?” the auctioneer shouted.

At this moment, Xu Ming raised his hand and shouted, “Thirty-two thousand drops!”

Thirty-two thousand drops!

As soon as this price came out, the two bidders who were still hesitant immediately gave up. This price had exceeded their psychological expectations by a lot.

“Thirty-two thousand drops, is there a higher price?” the auctioneer was still agitating.

However, after waiting for a while, there was no other voice quoting a price.

“What? Someone actually called out forty thousand drops!?”

“Who is it!?”

Gazes were cast towards the source of the sound.

The one who shouted the price of “forty thousand drops” was Xu Ming's “old acquaintance” — Zhen Ling!

Zhen Ling glanced at Xu Ming contemptuously, and sneered: “You don't even add the price happily! Adding only five hundred drops of Chaos Origin Fluid at a time? — Looking at you like this, you still have the nerve to sit in the VIP area?”

Xu Ming glanced at him, ignored him, and continued to quote: “Fifty thousand drops of Chaos Origin Fluid!”

“Oh?” Seeing that Xu Ming actually quoted again, Zhen Ling immediately became interested, “Dare to compete with me? — Humph! Sixty thousand drops of Chaos Origin Fluid!”

Xu Ming's expression was calm, and he continued to say indifferently: “Seventy thousand drops!”

“Eh —” Zhen Ling became more and more curious, “The price is so high, and you still dare to follow? Could it be that you have discovered some mystery in this black arrow? In that case… one hundred thousand drops of Chaos Origin Fluid, if you have the ability, follow again!”

Zhen Ling immediately called the price up to one hundred thousand drops of Chaos Origin Fluid!

Seeing this, Xu Ming said without hesitation: “I don't want it anymore, you can buy it!”

Xu Ming was curious about whether there would be anything special between this black arrow and the Heart-Piercing Arrow; however, it was impossible for Xu Ming to spend too much to satisfy his curiosity.

After all, Xu Ming only had about two hundred thousand drops of Chaos Origin Fluid on him. It was impossible for him to take out half of his wealth to buy a treasure that he didn't know what it was.

Saving one hundred thousand drops of Chaos Origin Fluid, for Xu Ming, he can upgrade the cheat and improve a lot of strength!

Therefore, Xu Ming decisively gave up following.

“What? You don't want it anymore?”

Xu Ming gave up, and now it was Zhen Ling's turn to be dumbfounded!

The reason why Zhen Ling jumped out to bid for this black arrow, and even raised the price so high, was entirely to trick Xu Ming.

After all, Zhen Ling didn't think that there was anything special about this black arrow; in his opinion, this was just a very ordinary mind-force type Chaos Divine Weapon!

Extremely ordinary!

It was completely the Eternal Universe Auction House taking it out to cheat money!

Therefore, after Zhen Ling raised the price to one hundred thousand drops of Chaos Origin Fluid, he didn't plan to call up anymore, but was waiting for Xu Ming to take over. But what he didn't expect was… Xu Ming actually stopped playing with him!

This made Zhen Ling have to be dumbfounded!

“You don't dare to follow up with such a small price?” Zhen Ling looked at Xu Ming, wanting to provoke Xu Ming to continue to increase the price, “It seems that the VIP area is really not a place for you to sit! You don't even have this courage, and you dare to bid with me? You also have the nerve to sit in the VIP area?”

Xu Ming was too lazy to pay attention to Zhen Ling's provocation, and sneered disdainfully: “If you want it, I'll give it to you! — Oh, right! Those sitting in the VIP area shouldn't all be idiots like you who don't use their brains, right?”

There will be only one update today.
