Time passed amidst a chorus of bids and the sound of falling gavels.
The auction was more than halfway through, and the items appearing grew increasingly valuable, making the bidding all the more fierce.
A faint scent of gunpowder began to fill the air as some bidders clearly grew heated during the competition.
"The next auction item."
Jin Buyi's voice rose, laced with a touch of incitement.
"It is a three-hundred-year-old Blood Ginseng King! This ginseng contains a vast essence of qi and blood. It has miraculous effects for cultivating Body Hardening Techniques, replenishing lost qi and blood, and even breaking through a Body Refining Barrier!"
"The starting bid is eight hundred thousand taels! Each increment must be no less than fifty thousand taels!"
The appearance of the Blood Ginseng King caused a slight stir, even in the private rooms on the second floor.
