Chapter 96 Flowing Cloud Auction
The next morning, Saki rushed over to find Suk, but Suk had returned to the quiet room with Eloi since the night before, so Saki couldn't find him. When he finally arrived, he was stopped by the guards outside.
"Mr. Saki, Master and Miss Eloi are cultivating inside and don't have time to see you," the guard said with an air of righteous indignation. It was as if protecting his master and his sister's cultivation was more important than anything else.
"They went in again?" Saki muttered with some disappointment. "I was planning to tell them about my breakthrough."
That's right. Last night, Saki used an evolution agent and a large amount of treasures that promote life evolution. After just one night, he directly entered the Hengxing level. Excited, Saki came over before dawn to tell his brother this "good news," only to find that neither of them was there.
In fact, Suk and Eloi didn't stay long this time; they came out the next day at noon because they had been using the nutrient tank for more than half a month.
You can't soak in the nutrient capsule for too long; you need to balance work and rest. Use it for half a month and then rest for half a month before continuing to use it. This will make it more effective.
"Even with this supposedly best E-grade nutrient pod, it would take an ordinary person hundreds of years to slowly evolve to the first level of the cosmic level. But this is only what's available outside, not within the five major powers," Suk thought to himself. "The nutrient pods from the Virtual Universe Company are much better. From the first to the ninth level of the cosmic level, no rest is needed; it's completed in just a few months! That should be considered F..."
"You've reached the next level, haven't you?"
After Suk came out, he naturally learned about Zuo Mu's breakthrough to the first level of the Hengxing stage. He was also happy. The three-person group from back then had all broken through to the Hengxing stage.
Time flew by, and before they knew it, the day of the Flowing Cloud Auction arrived. It was the grandest event in the entire Flowing Cloud Universe!
Suk, Eloi, and Zuo Mu appeared together in the Azure Tree residential area of Jialan Island.
Actually, all three of them are now considered "three-star customers" of the world's number one bank!
The specific operation is very simple. For example, if Suk and Eloi each transfer 5 Mixed Yuan Units to Saki, the account can temporarily reach the "three-star customer" standard of 10 Mixed Yuan Units!
Spending is normal; banks don't easily downgrade accounts. Downgrading only happens when your account consistently falls below certain thresholds. The higher the account level, the longer this "period" is. For example, a five-star account, even if all the money in it is used up, will not be downgraded for "hundreds of millions of years"!
In any case, it's enough to give Saki the opportunity to participate in this "Flowing Cloud Auction".
Saki, who had just become a Hengxing-level customer, was incredibly excited. "A three-star customer! I've heard that there are very few customers in the entire Jialan Empire who can be considered 'three-star customers'!"
Saki is right. Even the patriarchs of the 27 major families in the Jialan Empire are not all three-star clients.
Suk and the others bid farewell to their relatives and left the Azure Tree Community. They summoned a Pegasus and rode it to the "teleportation point".
"Teleport." The three stood inside the teleportation point, holding the invitation to the Flowing Cloud Auction.
Whoosh! The three of them instantly disappeared from Jialan Island and were teleported to a floating city above the "Flowing Cloud Continent". The invitation emitted specks of light, causing the floating city's defenses to automatically open a passage, allowing Su Ke and the other two to enter.
This is an incredibly elegant landmass suspended in the clouds.
The scenery on this suspended city is beautiful, with flowers and plants everywhere.
The most dazzling thing in the entire floating city is the incredibly huge building—the auction hall!
The Liuyun Auction, held every three years, is always held in this auction hall!
"Hello sir, welcome to this year's Liuyun Auction. This is your seat number."
"Hello, Miss, welcome to this year's Flowing Clouds Auction. This is your seat number."
People dressed in either gorgeous or simple attire, some with scorpion-like lower bodies, others only a foot tall and incredibly short, were all there to attend the Flowing Cloud Universe Kingdom auction. The crowds were enormous, with long queues forming at each entrance of the auction hall as everyone waited to enter.
Suk and his two companions naturally lined up together, remaining silent and ignoring anyone who tried to engage them in conversation. Even the most outgoing Saki kept quiet, as almost everyone around them was a World Lord! In such an environment, they naturally had to be cautious in their words and actions.
"Hello sir, welcome to this year's Liuyun Auction. This is your seat number."
Suk was the first to receive a token. He saw that the black token had a semi-transparent screen with a seat number on it—LYG66783.
"Miss, welcome to this year's Flowing Cloud Auction. This is your seat number." Eloi, who was behind Suk in line, took the token. The two looked at each other and found that the token numbers were scrambled and not connected.
Upon entering the auction hall, the entire space resembled a football stadium on Earth, with an overwhelming number of seats—a total of 300 million! Each seat was six meters wide and ten meters high. Arranged in concentric rings, it seemed to stretch as far as the eye could see. It was as if a world was made up of countless seats.
"LYG66783." Suk saw his number engraved on the seat and sat down. His size made him look like he was sitting on a huge bed, which was very mismatched and even a little comical.
"Suker, have you found your location?" Eloi transmitted.
"Found it, where's Saki?" Suk asked.
Saki's loud voice came over, "I've arrived too, oh dear. I'm surrounded by Realm Lords all around me, and a one-eyed female Realm Lord with black eyes next to me even wanted to chat with me. She's quite pretty, but unfortunately I can't answer her." Before coming here, Suk and the others had agreed not to reveal any information about themselves and to try not to answer anyone's questions. Anyway, once they left this place, they wouldn't be able to find them.
A question mark popped into Suk's mind: a black one-eyed monster? What new fetish did Saki have up his sleeve?
"There are so many Realm Lords here, it's terrifying!" Saki exclaimed. "This has truly broadened my horizons; I can brag about this for the rest of my life."
"Bubble said it's normal for millions of realm lords to gather at auctions here at once," Eloi added.
"The entire Liuyun Universe Kingdom, with its tens of thousands of star fields and various forces, should have millions of World Lords."
"Millions?" Saki clicked his tongue.
While talking to Eloi and the others, Suk waited for the auction to begin, hoping that he could buy enough Star Hearts this time.
Now that Suk's body has evolved with a nutrient tank, he can cultivate on his own without having to worry about anything else. The only problem is the Death Star Vine beside him. If it can't freely devour life-bearing planets, then he needs to prepare better "Star Hearts" for it to grow. To be precise, the "Star Heart" is more effective than devouring life-bearing planets, helping the Death Star Vine grow faster, but it costs a lot of money.
