Mad Doctor No. 9

When a legendary fragment of a sword manual left by a Tang Dynasty sword immortal came to light, it sparked a frenzy of bidding, and its price skyrocketed.

Wang Tian took a look and saw that it was just a fragment, incomplete and useless to him, so he did not participate.

In the end, it was bought by an ancient martial arts family in the north for an exorbitant price, which is a remarkable thing.

"Next is one of the three highlight items of this auction."

The red silk was lifted, revealing a charred black branch more than a foot long. It looked like a piece of dead wood, but upon closer inspection, one could see dark golden veins flowing beneath the charred surface, faintly exuding a scorching and ancient aura.

"This object is called the Sun God Wood. It comes from an ancient site in the Western Regions and is suspected to be related to the Fusang Wood. It is said to be a legendary Fusang Wood."

Although withered, it contains a trace of yang essence, which can be used to refine top-grade fire magic weapons, as well as for alchemy and cultivating supreme yang techniques. The starting price is 500 million! Each bid must be at least 50 million!

The meeting room erupted in chaos.

The high price is one thing, but the name "Sun God Tree" is so prestigious that even a single branch is something that people who cultivate fire and yang attribute techniques dream of.

Wang Tian's eyes lit up! The supreme yang essence contained in this item would greatly benefit the cultivation of the Starry Sky Body Tempering Technique, and might even allow him to break through to the fourth rank faster! Coupled with the Thousand-Year Snow Lotus and Crimson Sun Blood Coral, it might be possible to refine a spiritual medicine even more powerful than the Dragon Tiger Pill!

"Six hundred million!" an elderly man in the private room immediately made a bid.

"Seven hundred million!" a voice rang out again.

"Eight hundred million!" a voice rang out again.

Soon, the price exceeded one billion.

The competition mainly revolved around several private rooms, including those belonging to ancient martial arts families, overseas Chinese families, and even two rooms that sounded like they belonged to foreigners.

Su Qingxuan glanced at Wang Tian and said softly, "President Wang, will this be of any use to you? As for the funds, the Su family will definitely not refuse." She knew that Wang Tian was rich, but more than a billion in cash was still an astronomical figure for ordinary people.

Wang Tian shook his head and said, "No need, I know what to do."

The bidding reached 1.5 billion, and the competition intensified, with only three private rooms still in the bidding stage.

"Sixteen billion!" came a middle-aged man's voice from the other end of the phone, speaking with a Hong Kong accent.

"1.7 billion!"

The third bid came from that hoarse voice: "Eighteen billion!"

"Two billion." Finally, Wang Tian raised the card in his hand.

The price skyrocketed from 1.8 billion to 2 billion! That's an extra 200 million! The entire room fell silent as everyone turned to look at the Su family's private room and the young man who had made the bid.

"2 billion! A VIP from the Su family has bid 2 billion!" the auctioneer exclaimed excitedly.

Both the Hong Kong accent and the Northern aristocratic family were quiet for a while.

The aged, hoarse voice rang out again, filled with anger: "Twenty-one billion! Young man, this is very important to me. Can you part with it?"

"Two billion." Wang Tian's expression remained unchanged.

Another four hundred million!

"you!"

The hoarse old man gasped, clearly enraged by Wang Tian's unreasonable price increase.

The price of 2.5 billion has exceeded his psychological limit.

"25 billion! This is the first time."

No one answered.

"25 billion! This is the second time."

Still, no one spoke.

"25 billion! This is the third time. It's a deal! Congratulations to our distinguished guest from the Su family for obtaining the remnants of the Sun God Tree!"

The final blow!

A gasp of surprise rang out from the crowd.

Two and a half billion, all for a single broken branch! And judging from the young man's expression, it seems he only spent twenty-five yuan! What incredible wealth! Or is it that he's absolutely determined to obtain the "Sun God Tree"?

The hoarse old man had a gloomy expression, but he ultimately held back.

No one sitting here is a fool.

The next two items auctioned were a fragment of a lost secret realm map and a bottle of "Fountain of Life," which is said to extend life by ten years, but both fetched astronomical prices.

Wang Tian carefully examined the map fragment and, confirming that it had nothing to do with the map in his hand, did not get involved.

The fountain of life was of no use to him.

As the auction came to a close, Wang Tian calmly completed the handover procedures. Under the watchful eyes of countless people, some curious, some inquisitive, and some in awe, he placed the fragment of the "Sun God Tree" into a specially made jade box.

The huge sum of 2.5 billion was spent so readily; the scale of the transaction caught the attention of even the higher-ups of the Secret Treasure Association, who were in charge of the deal.

As soon as Wang Tian stepped out of the Cloud Peak Club, he was stopped by the hoarse old man. He was wearing a Tang suit, his face was withered, his eyes were sharp, and he was followed by two middle-aged men with strong auras.

"Young man, my name is Yan Lie, the sect leader of the Li Huo Sect." The old man glanced at Wang Tian and said, "This Sun God Tree is very helpful to my Li Huo True Technique. Could you give it to me? Also, I owe you a favor."

The Li Huo Sect is a secluded sect that primarily uses fire-based techniques, and its strength should not be underestimated.

The sect leader of Yanlie Sect personally spoke up, adding 500 million, plus a favor.

Some of the remaining guests also stopped to watch.

Su Qingxuan looked at Wang Tian, ​​somewhat nervous.

Wang Tian looked at Yan Lie and shook his head, saying, "I'm sorry, Sect Master Yan, this is very important to me, I won't give it to you."

Yan Lie's face darkened: "Kid, don't go too far. Although our Li Huo Sect isn't the strongest sect, we still have quite a few fire-based techniques. It's always good to make more friends."

Before he could finish speaking, Wang Tian interrupted him: "Sect Leader Yan, in this auction, the highest bidder wins, so I won't stand on ceremony. This item is mine now that I've bought it. As for the Li Huo Sect..." He glanced indifferently at the two people behind Yan Lie, speaking calmly, yet with an invisible pressure emanating from him, "If you wish to make friends with me, I'll gladly oblige. I'm not afraid of you bullying the weak."

After saying this, a faint yet profound aura, as deep as the starry sky, flashed by.

Yan Lie and the other two's expressions changed simultaneously, as if an invisible mountain was pressing down on them, making it hard to even breathe! Yan Lie was shocked. With his mid-stage Transformation Realm strength, he was actually being overwhelmed by the aura casually released by this young man! This kid's cultivation level must be higher than his! And he's so young.

He immediately suppressed his dissatisfaction and threats, forcing a smile and saying, "President Wang is joking. I was just in a hurry to buy it and had no other intentions. Since President Wang has such a great use for it, I won't try to take it. Farewell!" With that, he hurriedly left with his subordinates.
