Ancestral Wealth Inheritance System

Chapter 562: The Gathering of Big Shots



"Is this really an auction, dude?" Walking into the crystal-like building, Fang Jueyu couldn't help but exclaim.

In Fang Jueyu's impression, auctions were incredibly dull, with a central podium surrounded by bidders' seats, perhaps adorned a bit more lavishly at most.

But this auction venue, even describing it as a paradise on earth wouldn't be an exaggeration!

It resembled a giant garden, with flowers, grasses, trees, streams, and hills almost everywhere. In mid-air, a huge exhibition stage floated.

As for the so-called seats, they were small floating islands in the sky. To ensure every bidder had the same visual experience, a kind of optical technology was employed, making the view from each seat toward the auction stage almost identical.

The most basic seat was a floating platform about twenty square meters, with some self-service facilities besides the seats.

The seats for holders of premium tickets were almost three times larger, with areas designated for service personnel.

As for VIP seats like Fang Jueyu's, they transformed into small floating palaces, invisible from the outside—even the aura couldn't penetrate, yet they could see everything around them. There were only a few dozen such seats in this space.

If identities were not voluntarily exposed, no one would know who exactly was in these VIP seats!

"This is practically a Sealing God Platform!" Fang Jueyu couldn't find any fitting adjective. Creating such a place required technology, financial power, imagination, and creativity, with none of these elements dispensable.

To protect these top clients' privacy, Fang Jueyu had a special entry passage, allowing them to see outside directly. Many people were already present in the venue.

These people looked bizarre, with some of their appearances even transcending the standard of "human," some towering almost ten meters tall, standing on two legs, and resembling beasts even more.

Some had horns on their heads, others with tails behind, like a raucous demon masquerade.

"Host, don't underestimate those people. They look like that because many are descended from humans and some Cosmic Beasts. They have humans' cultivation talents and the strong bodies and long lifespan of the beasts, often being stronger than pure-blooded humans."

"Damn, I think Darwin's coffin lid is about to pop off—don't humans and Cosmic Beasts have reproductive isolation?" Fang Jueyu couldn't help but quip.

"In higher beings, the modes of mating are far beyond your imagination!" Xiao Yi said, "Do you see that one with scales on the body and a tail behind?"

"Mm, looks like a little dragon man."

"That one's strength is at least above the eighth level of a Controller, and I bet their age won't exceed 5,000 years!"

"So young?" Fang Jueyu remembered Xiao Yi said that in the cosmic civilization, ordinary Martial Artists could ascend to Hidden Elementers by age 30, Source Energy Users around 200, and Divine Ability Users by 2,000. To become Controllers required talent and resources, and most only had the opportunity after 20,000 years.

To become a Controller below 5,000 years was definitely considered a genius, not to mention reaching the eighth level of Controller.

"May I tell you that those eligible to participate in this auction are generally all Controllers and above?"

"What? All Controllers?" Fang Jueyu was dumbfounded. There were already at least tens of thousands seated, and most were Controllers?

"What did you think?" Xiao Yi chuckled. "Those who get the site auction tickets are all bigwigs from fourth-level civilizations. Generally, Transcenders won't show up personally, so those tickets fall into their juniors' hands. As for Martial Artists below Controllers, they aren't qualified to receive one."

"Oh, but some extremely weak individuals, the weaker they are, the more you shouldn't provoke them, like you!"

"Does that include Muggles?" Fang Jueyu suddenly spotted an acquaintance, Shakar, who had just fled in fright.

"Hahaha, he's with the organizers. Sneakily adding a few spots can be understood!" Xiao Yi felt a bit embarrassed.

"I kinda want to know what they're talking about." The auction hadn't started yet, and Fang Jueyu noticed some bidders were chatting in small groups.

"What can they be talking about? Exchanges between Martial Artists are nothing more than what martial arts they've recently practiced, where they've adventured, what outstanding disciples they've cultivated, just boasting and shooting the breeze."

"Sir, this is your seat. The service staff arranged for you are already in position. If you have any requests, you can ask them." The staff member said respectfully.

In their mind, a Hidden Elementer buying such a seat must have a background beyond their imagination. No level of humility was too much toward such a person.

"Alright, thank you for your effort." Fang Jueyu casually tossed over a Morale Crystal Coin.

"Thank you, sir." The staff member left in ecstasy.

"Wow, this is actually a seat," Fang Jueyu walked into that sky fortress. This was completely a high-tech standalone villa.

Living room, bathroom, rest area, training room, and dozens of service personnel.

"Hello sir, I am the head of the service team for seat number 1. You can call me Xiao Shuang." A stunning girl approached. Her skin was snow-white, and she had long white fluff on her ears, looking extremely elegant.

"Whoa, an Elf Clan girl!" Fang Jue's companion, Natu, nearly drooled, staring intensely at the girl's chest and long legs, as if he had a peculiar fervor for Elf Clan girls.

"Don't act like you haven't seen a woman in hundreds of years." Fang Jue suddenly regretted bringing Natu along.

"Hehe," Xiao Shuang was not discomforted by Natu's demeanor; in fact, they even hoped to engage in some interactions with this seat's owner.

"Sir, we have the finest chefs and the best attendants. If you need any service, feel free to ask us."

"Alright, thanks for the trouble," Fang Jueyu appeared extraordinarily suave.

"This must be the real owner of the seat." Fang Jueyu, having studied the manners of cosmic civilization, exuded a noble aura, confirming Xiao Shuang's assessment of Fang Jueyu's identity.

"How long will this auction last?" Fang Jueyu asked.

"Sir, it will last about a cosmic day."

"Is there information on this auction's slaves?"

"Sir, you can view the slave details for this auction by binding to your intelligent system. The final three headline auction items are confidential to regular bidders, but you can also access them."

"Tsk tsk tsk, having privileges is nice if you're wealthy!" Fang Jueyu couldn't help but sigh. "Please prepare some food for us. We'll take a look first."

"Yes, sir."

"Host, this auction isn't like ordinary auctions. You must be mentally prepared!"

"Oh? Why is that?"

"As long as it's a Cosmic Kingdom-level auction, it generally leads to a bloody storm afterward!"

"Are you saying, kill and loot?" Fang Jueyu gestured slitting his throat.

"Correct. Don't think a cosmic civilization doesn't have its dark corners. Some Transcenders might even join. By then, it will be extremely troublesome! So during the bidding, avoid conflicts with others if you can, and just treat this as a learning experience without really participating in the bidding."

"These auction items seem pretty average!"

"Wait!" Suddenly, while browsing the auction items, Xiao Yi seemed to discover something, his voice turning hysterically frantic, "There's actually an Orville Clan slave! Isn't this race extinct for billions of years?"

"Host! You must buy this slave, no matter the consequences! No matter the cost, you must buy it!"
