Looking at the various offers, Qin Chen felt a heavy heart.
The treasures on him were already limited.
Previously, nearly two billion merit points had been spent in the earlier auction, leaving him with only a few items, and the Divine Light Fish had consumed many as well. As for the Venerable Holy Veins, he had two of them, obtained from the storage spaces of the Jue Mountain Venerable and the Qianyan Clan powerhouse, but those were prepared for his upcoming breakthrough to the Venerable realm.
Regarding the Heavenly Dao Divine Elixirs, Qin Chen still had many, but he no longer dared to take them out.
He had already traded ten Heavenly Dao Divine Elixirs; although others did not know which box he was in, the black market auctioneers certainly knew which box made the bid. Taking out ten Heavenly Dao Divine Elixirs was already quite risky. If he were to take out more Divine Elixirs with different attributes, he would undoubtedly be revealing to the black market that he had a Heavenly Dao Divine Tree.
As one of the ten great origin treasures of the heavenly realm, if the news about the Heavenly Dao Divine Tree were to leak, it would surely attract countless covetous eyes.
Even now, Qin Chen was faintly worried that his consecutive purchases of several treasures might have already caught the attention of the black market.
However, the token for the Wanxiang Divine Treasury was something he must obtain.
That was a chaotic place created during the opening of the universe. As long as he entered the Wanxiang Divine Treasury, he would undoubtedly be able to break through to the Venerable realm, and at that time, to what extent would his strength rise? Qin Chen himself wasn’t even sure.
"Three hundred million merit points, two Venerable Holy Veins, two hundred Divine Light Fish, plus one Heavenly Ghost Fire Stone Fish!"
After hesitating for a moment, Qin Chen directly announced a price.
Once this price was out, it naturally drew exclamations from the experts in several boxes.
Who is this?
They actually brought out so many treasures?
And it’s another exotic species from the Nether Star River?
The bids on the screen flashed very quickly, but with the cultivation levels of the people present, even if it passed by in a flash, they could clearly see the price. After seeing this number, their hearts sank.
Clearly, with the black market's previous behavior, this bid likely secured a token already.
Many people present had participated in black market auctions more than once, knowing that the black market favored exotic species from the Nether Star River. Otherwise, the previous three-colored thick-shelled giant crab would not have been so popular.
Who would have thought that another Heavenly Ghost Fire Stone Fish would appear?
Moreover, the price for the Deep Sea Nether Electric Eel also reappeared on the screen, likely securing another token.
In this way, wouldn’t there be only four tokens left in total?
Many who had previously bid hesitated for a moment before raising their bids, putting everything they could afford on the table.
After all, roughly estimating, there were probably more than six Earth Venerables present. If they continued to hide their treasures, it would be better not to bid at all.
After Qin Chen put forth this price, his heart finally eased a bit, then he sat calmly in the box, his gaze tranquil.
This was already the highest price he could offer; he still had many exotic species, such as the Sawtooth Lantern Fish, Multi-colored Sturgeon Dragon Fish, Heavenly Rainbow Koi, Golden Giant Lobster, Nether Giant Tooth Squid, and Nether Flame Giant Horn Sea Bream.
However, he could not take these out anymore.
He had already exposed many treasures: two major exotic species, plus the Divine Light Fish King, which was already extremely abnormal. If he were to expose more exotic species, Qin Chen didn’t dare to be certain what kind of attention he would attract from the black market.
It was even possible that he had already caught their eye.
But for the token of the Wanxiang Divine Treasury, Qin Chen could only offer such a price; otherwise, he would have no competitiveness. As for the two hundred Divine Light Fish, he had exposed them when he bid earlier, so taking them out again wouldn’t be surprising.
