King of Creation-Chapter 1587 - 1572: Ye Zhen’s Bounty

The annual auction conference on Five Immortals Island actually has two sessions, the first session being the auction Ye Zhen participated in just now.

Mainly auctioning various Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures, Heaven and Earth Spiritual Objects, Divine Power Secret Books, and item talismans, these are tangible objects that can be seen with one’s eyes.

The second session is different, its main transaction targets are intelligence, information, and reward, which are intangible and information-based.

Therefore, the new auctioneer just took the stage and stated a disclaimer of sorts.

"Honorable guests, our Five Immortals Island annual auction conference regarding intelligence, information, and reward transactions is about to begin. However, before the transactions, I need to inform you of the relevant rules." The auctioneer said.

"Given the vastness of All Heavens and Myriads of Worlds, our Five Immortals Island is unable to verify the authenticity of various intelligence and information transactions. We can only inquire as much as possible about the details when accepting intelligence auctions and require accompanying Spirit Shadows.

Filtering out as much false intelligence as possible, and attaching relevant information known to our Five Immortals Hall on intelligence for reference.

But even so, we cannot guarantee the accuracy and authenticity of this intelligence information.

Therefore, when bidding later, please rationally discern the truthfulness of such intelligence and information, which has nothing to do with our Five Immortals Hall.

Of course, among them, the intelligence and information produced by our Five Immortals Hall can be guaranteed to be 100% correct."

"In addition, today’s various rewards are issued by Martial Artists from All Heavens and Myriads of Worlds. Although rich in rewards, they are filled with endless danger.

All of you should be rational and cautious when deciding to undertake reward tasks, to avoid losing your lives.

However, the rewards in various tasks, we at Five Immortals Hall can guarantee, as long as you complete the reward task, you can claim the reward 100%.

Because Martial Artists from All Heavens have already placed the reward amounts with our Five Immortals Hall when issuing the rewards.

Therefore, as for reward tasks, if guests are interested in the reward amount, you may proceed. Next, we will start the auction of intelligence and information."

"The first piece of auction information is the whereabouts of the Yin Lan Ghost King, who vanished from All Heavens and Myriads of Worlds after pillaging five small worlds a thousand years ago and draining the Essence Blood of billions of creatures within those worlds.

The owners of those five small worlds searched throughout the Ten Thousand Worlds but never found the Yin Lan Ghost King.

Currently, someone has discovered the place where the Yin Lan Ghost King is hiding, in an incredible location, claiming that the Yin Lan Ghost King is currently inside the Netherworld Banner; the intelligence contains a path to Yin Lan Ghost King’s hideout, sealed with Spirit Shadow.

Hmm, this intelligence starts at an auction price of six hundred thousand High Grade Spirit Stones, with each price increase no less than fifty thousand High Grade Spirit Stones."

Afterward, the auctioneer added, "To inform some of the new guests, the starting price, reward amounts, etc., of our second session’s intelligence, information, and rewards, are all determined by the client submitting the intelligence or issuing the reward and have nothing to do with our Five Immortals Island."

This starting price shocked Ye Zhen; one piece of intelligence starts at a value of six hundred thousand High Grade Spirit Stones?

"Is it strange? Not at all."

Ling Wangke smiled slightly, "The calamity a thousand years ago caused the Gongyang Clan significant losses, and throughout the millennium, they have been searching for the whereabouts of the Yin Lan Ghost King without any news.

A hundred years ago, the Gongyang Clan issued a reward on Five Immortals Island: twenty thousand High Grade Spirit Stones for information on the Yin Lan Ghost King’s whereabouts, but nothing came of it."

"Now, it seems someone has obtained the whereabouts of the Yin Lan Ghost King, and such intelligence typically faces no competition, so the publisher of the intelligence directly set the starting price to six hundred thousand High Grade Spirit Stones; this starting price should become the transaction price." Ling Wangke explained the various Jianghu anecdotes to Ye Zhen.

As expected by Ling Wangke, no one bid on this Yin Lan Ghost King’s intelligence, and just before the auctioneer declared a failed auction, a voice reluctantly made the purchase with six hundred thousand High Grade Spirit Stones.

"This money is really easy to earn. Just one piece of intelligence fetches six hundred thousand High Grade Spirit Stones." Ye Zhen remarked.

"Earning such money relies on luck," Ling Wangke said. "If you want to search the world for the whereabouts of the Yin Lan Ghost King, searching for a hundred years might not yield any result.

But some people just casually take a walk, spot it, jot it down, and might make money from it."

"That’s true."

Nodding, Ye Zhen already secretly decided that when the reward announcements come, he would record all the rewards, and after the auction conference ends, Ye Zhen would also note down the valid rewards from previous years of Five Immortals Island’s annual auction conference.

Wandering in All Heavens and Myriads of Worlds, perhaps one day he could run into them and earn a great fortune.

Subsequently, Ye Zhen listened intently, carefully attending to the auctioned intelligence and information, eagerly hoping to hear intelligence about Heaven and Earth Spiritual Objects that could supplement origin power.

Unfortunately, after seventy pieces of intelligence were auctioned, similar to the previous secret auction, a Jade Scroll was sent, containing hundreds of strange and bizarre auction intelligence, but none related to Heaven and Earth Spiritual Objects that could supplement origin power appeared.

In the end, Ye Zhen concluded in disappointment, not finding any information on Heaven and Earth Spiritual Objects that could supplement origin power.

However, Ye Zhen had already anticipated such an outcome earlier.

In a certain sense, the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Objects that replenish origin power are even more sought after than Innate Spiritual Treasures. 𝚏𝕣𝕖𝚎𝚠𝚎𝚋𝚗𝐨𝐯𝕖𝕝.𝕔𝐨𝕞

Those who need Heaven and Earth Spiritual Objects that can replenish origin power are basically old monsters whose bodies have lost vitality or whose lifespan has dried up, requiring these objects to restore life force or to extend life and replenish vitality.

These old monsters, each of them with high cultivation, wealthy beyond measure, would go to any lengths, regardless of cost, to regain vitality or extend lifespan, even to the point of madness.

As a result, Heaven and Earth Spiritual Objects that replenish origin power are incredibly sought after, and even information about them is rare.

Anticipating this point, Ye Zhen was prepared—rewards!

After the bidding on intelligence and information concludes, the rewards officially commence.

In the reward section, the process is very simple, with the auctioneer announcing the reward content and amounts item by item.

Moreover, all of this year’s reward contents will be compiled into a Jade Scroll and given to all participants, and the Reward Jade Scroll will be publicly sold at all Five Immortals Hall’s stores.

The more people know about the reward information, the more likely it will be completed.

The first reward is a bounty seeking the whereabouts of a Twin Shadow Beast infant, with an amount of one hundred thousand High Grade Spiritual Stones, effective for a hundred years.

The seasoned Jianghu elder Ling Wangke commented that this reward was too low; basically, finding the whereabouts of the Twin Shadow Beast infant could lead to obtaining the beast itself, with the only concern being the mother beast’s tracking and retaliation.

Subsequently, numerous varied rewards emerged, including those seeking beauties from various clans, numerous Heaven and Earth Spiritual Objects, searching for experts, and even hiring Martial Artists.

The one thousand seven hundred and sixty-third reward is a high-priced purchase seeking Heaven and Earth Spiritual Object whereabouts that can replenish origin power, which must belong to the wood or water elements, with a bounty of thirty Spirit Void Fruits, effective for a hundred years.

Additionally, if anyone possesses Heaven and Earth Spiritual Objects to sell, they can directly contact our Five Immortals Hall shop, then we Five Immortals Hall will facilitate negotiations between parties.

According to the words of the honorable reward guest, Spirit Stones are not a problem."

As soon as the auctioneer read this reward, Ling Wangke beside Ye Zhen suddenly lifted his head, his eyes filled with surprise.

"Thirty Spirit Void Fruits, such generosity is indeed extravagant!"

"Had the supply of Spirit Void Fruits before the annual auction not drastically reduced, such a reward of thirty Spirit Voids would have been just right.

But now, it’s an enormous reward, considering Spirit Void Fruits, presently, can’t be bought even with Spirit Stones." Ling Wangke stated.

Upon hearing this, Ye Zhen’s heart slightly moved, and he asked Ling Wangke, "Senior Ling, does the thirty Spirit Void Fruits’ extravagance indicate this reward will be very popular, possibly with swift results?"

"It will definitely be popular, but quick results are uncertain, as Heaven and Earth Spiritual Objects that can replenish origin power are scarce."

This statement sank Ye Zhen’s heart somewhat, but Ling Wangke’s subsequent words gave Ye Zhen a bit of hope.

"As the saying goes, under heavy rewards, brave men will emerge. After this year’s auction concludes, the value of thirty Spirit Void Fruits has increased many fold compared to previous years.

Not to mention others, after today, I myself will traverse these perilous areas of All Heavens and Myriads of Worlds to see if I can locate the whereabouts of those Heaven and Earth Spiritual Objects that replenish origin power.

If I find it, I will surely come to earn those thirty Spirit Void Fruits.

If I can take them right away, I will contact this person for a transaction to obtain more Spirit Void Fruits." Ling Wangke remarked.

"Seems like I should try my luck too," Ye Zhen said.

"Hm, just with you, those perilous areas of All Heavens and Myriads of Worlds would finish you even before entering, don’t even think about it," Ling Wangke retorted grumpily.

"Hey, didn’t you just say it’ll require luck, and luck indeed! My luck has always been good!" Ye Zhen smiled.

Upon hearing this, Ling Wangke gave a big roll of the eyes.

Ye Zhen’s heart settled slightly; even a Dao Realm expert like Ling Wangke is interested, certainly many people will be intrigued.

Thus, Ye Zhen’s possibility of finding Heaven and Earth Spiritual Objects to save the Little Demon becomes very high.

What Ye Zhen could do has been done; now what’s needed is to wait, to wait for good news!

The reward entries were numerous, even though the auctioneer’s pace was quite fast, it still took two hours to list them all.

After two hours, when an auction device in the VIP room displayed a Reward Jade Scroll, it represented the end of this annual auction.

At the same moment, a Deacon from Five Immortals Hall, accompanied by six individuals exuding formidable aura, appeared at the door of Ye Zhen’s VIP suite.
