Chapter 454 Ch 454: Seven Dao Manifestation Realm Martial Artists
"What? A Million High Grade Immortal Stones?"
"Brat, do you even have that many High Grade Immortal Stones on you?"
"I think he might have. Look at the people beside him, I know them. They are the juniors of top powers of the Great Martial City!"
"What? Is it true? If that really is the case, then I don't think we would be able to get our hands on the Dragon Blood Stone."
For a moment, silence enveloped the entire place when Ye Xiao shouted out his bid for the Dragon Blood Stone, but in the next moment, a huge commotion was again stirred up.
It was fortunate that someone recognized He Yu, Lin Xiao, and other young men and women from the top families of the Great Martial City who were standing side by side to Ye Xiao. It caused many people to shut their mouths.
But even so, no one left this place. Many of them were here just to take the spot and watch the fun. They had no intention of joining the competition. Many of them had enough money but was not willing to spend them on a single item, many of them didn't have the courage to go against the top powers of the Great Martial City, and many of them didn't think much about these powers because here, in the trade fair, everyone could fight for any material.
Just as the commotion was becoming bigger and bigger, a huge pressure landed on everyone, causing them to tremble. Some of them were forced to kneel and some of them couldn't even move.
"Dao Manifestation Realm martial artist!"
Ye Xiao raised his head and saw an old man who was at the Dao Manifestation Realm standing in the air, looking down at the crowd from above as if he was a god and was looking down on ants that could be trampled by him at any moment.
Not even ten seconds passed when another pressure descended and very soon, another old man appeared in the air not far away from the previous old man.
"Woosh!"
"Woosh!"
Following that old man, one after another, many other old men at the Dao Manifestation Realm appeared in the air.
There were now a total of seven Dao Manifestation Realm old men in the air. They first looked at each other and then looked at the crowd below. It was at this moment when one of them said, "I will not make things difficult for you juniors and I'll also not break the rule of this Trade Fair. I just want those people to leave who cannot afford the Dragon Blood Stone and those people who have no intention of buying the Dragon Blood Stone."
The moment the old man said this, the pressure that was pressing down on people disappeared. People felt as if a huge mountain that was pressing down on their heads was now lifted up. People immediately started to leave this place.
In the time less than five minutes, aside from Ye Xiao, Yue Ying, He Yu, Lin Xiao, and other people of his group, only five other people were standing.
"Greetings Patriarch! Greetings Seniors!"
"Greetings Patriarch! Greetings Seniors!"
"Greetings Patriarch! Greetings Seniors!"
He Yu, Lin Xiao, and others started greeting the old men in the sky one after another. It turned out that the old men in the sky were actually the patriarchs of the seven top powers of the Great Martial Sect.
All the old men nodded their heads towards their juniors and descended from the sky, in front of the old man's stall.
The He Family's patriarch took a few steps forward, extended his hand, and held the Dragon Blood Stone in his hand. Then he looked at it carefully before saying with an excited expression, "It really is the Dragon Blood Stone. How rare?"
Upon hearing this, the Lin Family's patriarch said, "Since that's the case, we'll play with the rules here. The higher bidder will get this Dragon Blood Stone. How about it?"
"I have no problem!"
"I also don't have any problem!"
"Me neither!"
"....."
The other old men supported the decision made by the Lin Family's patriarch. They didn't ask the old man(owner of the stall) about his opinion. They simply talked amongst themselves and started competing for the Dragon Blood Stone.
That old man also didn't say anything. He simply looked at the seven Dao Manifestation Realm old men before turning to look at Ye Xiao. He wanted to know what Ye Xiao would do in this situation.
Ye Xiao's expression was not good at this moment. If he were to compete for the Dragon Blood Stone, although the seven old men would not say anything, without any doubt, he'll offend them.
Who knows if they attacked him secretly to get their hands on the Dragon Blood Stone?
They were all Dao Manifestation Realm martial artists while Ye Xiao was only at the Immortal King Realm. The difference between the two of them was huge.
Furthermore, he had already offended a Dao Manifestation Realm demon, resulting in becoming an enemy with the entire demon race and all the demonic cultivators of the Upper Realm.
Currently, he didn't want to offend another Dao Manifestation Realm martial artist. Offending one was already enough, he couldn't bear the consequences of offending another seven of them.
If he wants to get his hands on the Dragon Blood Stone, he has to think of another solution.
Suddenly, he thought of something, turned his head towards He Yu and others, and said, "Brother He, I've just remembered something. I'll be back soon, please ensure the safety of Yue Ying."
"Don't worry Brother Ye, with us here, nothing will happen to Miss Yue." He Yu smiled and guaranteed Ye Xiao.
Although none of them knew what Ye Xiao remembered or what he had to do, none of them cared too much.
Yue Ying wanted to follow Ye Xiao but since he said that he'll be back soon, she didn't say anything. She just decided to wait for Ye Xiao's return.
Ye Xiao turned around and left.
The old man also kept staring at Ye Xiao until he disappeared from the sight of the old man. A disappointed expression appeared on his face that quickly disappeared. His face returned to being expressionless and dull.
The seven patriarchs were fighting intensely for the Dragon Blood Stone. The price of the Dragon Blood Stone has already increased to Ten Million High Grade Immortal Stones. This price was simply an enormous price that even some First Level Sects might not have in their possessions. And here, the patriarchs seven top powers of the Great Martial City were ready to spend this huge sum of Immortal Stones just to buy a single Dragon Blood Stone.
The value of the Dragon Blood Stone could be imagined.
At first, its price was only a Hundred Thousand Immortal Stones but now, its price was raised to Ten Million High Grade Immortal Stones. This was simply... out of everyone's expectations.
"Fifteen Million High Grade Immortal Stones!"
The seven patriarchs were still bidding fiercely when a young voice was heard from behind them.
Everyone turned their heads, only to see a figure, covered in black, standing not far away. This figure's entire body was hidden and not a single part of skin could be seen.
But everyone smell the faint fragrance of wood that was gradually filling the air. They could also feel the vitality of this figure in front of them was too lively. What was more, his aura was domineering. It was as in front of them, it was not a figure in black standing but a giant dragon.
They could not tell this person's cultivation base but from this person's aura, everyone thought that he must at least be an Ancient Immortal Realm cultivator.
This figure in black was no other than Ye Xiao.
Previously, he thought of Zhang Danfeng who always stays covered in black.
Thinking of him, Ye Xiao left in hurry and returned after disguising. He also covered his entire body with black clothes. He also let the aura of his Wood Blossom Bloodline continuously surge out from his body, and at the same time, he also let out an extremely minute draconic aura, causing everyone to have a feeling that a giant dragon was standing opposite to them but at the same time, they thought that it was just an illusion. They could not be sure!
Moreover, Ye Xiao also changed his voice before calling out his bid, causing no one to doubt that it was him who came back after disguising. No one was able to recognize Ye Xiao, not even Yue Ying.
No... Wait! Maybe, there was one person who recognized Ye Xiao.
It was the old man.
When the old man heard Ye Xiao's voice, he raised his head to take a look. But the moment he saw the figure covered in black, his expressionless face again gave birth to an exciting expression. His dull eyes once again flashed with light as he looked at Ye Xiao with interest.
