Hearing Zhu Si's words, the cultivators present once again showed a hint of surprise in their eyes.
A cultivator at the third stage of Hedao possessing such immense wealth.
Could this be the strongest from some obscure region, having completely plundered their entire minor world and gathered this fortune?
But soon, this thought was dismissed.
If such a thing had occurred, news would have surely spread even from those peripheral regions.
Ultimately, these cultivators could not fathom where the second life spirit puppet obtained so many spirit stones.
If Li Qi could hear their thoughts, he would have surely chuckled inwardly.
Did the second life spirit puppet not know why it had so much money? This was the collective contribution of everyone from the Void Black Market.
Perhaps many of the guests at this auction were also his clients for the replicated pills.
While these cultivators were lost in thought, the auction continued without pause.
However, this auction of Heavenly Dao Will was not as smooth as the two previous times Li Qi had directed the second life spirit puppet to bid.
As soon as Zhu Si called out the price and struck the first hammer.
From a certain VIP box, a voice directly rang out.
"Twenty-five million spirit stones."
No need to guess, the bidder must have been a supreme expert from some region, a cultivator at the ninth stage of Hedao.
The bid was immediately increased by three million spirit stones.
Only such supreme experts at the ninth stage of Hedao could achieve this.
After all, the regions they commanded contained countless powerful minor worlds.
With their prestige as the supreme experts of their regions, visiting various minor worlds would likely prompt the planar lords of those worlds to voluntarily offer a portion of their spirit stones as support.
"Twenty-five million spirit stones, once!"
Zhu Si's voice echoed again.
And this time, from another VIP box, a voice sounded once more.
Li Qi recognized the owner of this voice; it was Chen Yixian, the planar lord of the Minglun region, who had visited before the auction began.
Chen Yixian's faint laughter was heard. He had no intention of issuing threats. Not to mention that the cultivators in the VIP boxes were not weaker than him.
Even if he were to threaten cultivators weaker than himself, he would still have to seek the opinion of Zhu Si on the auction stage.
After all, his strength as a cultivator in the Tribulation Stage was not to be trifled with.
"Twenty-eight million spirit stones. To gain a few hundred more years of lifespan, this is all I can offer. If any other Dao friends wish to compete, I will have to concede."
Chen Yixian's bid immediately caused the cultivators in the general seating to gasp.
"Twenty-eight million spirit stones, so many spirit stones, and not even converted by Heavenly Dao Will. Are the supreme experts from these VIP boxes truly this wealthy?"
"With so many spirit stones, I fear I might never accumulate such wealth in my lifetime."
"As expected of the supreme experts from the top hundred regions, their foundations are truly profound."
And with Chen Yixian's price, it seemed to have reached the limit for many guests in the VIP boxes.
According to market prices, the Heavenly Dao Will of the third stage of Hedao was worth about twenty million spirit stones. This auction price of twenty-two million had already exceeded it by two million.
Now, after bidding, it had further increased by six million spirit stones.
To bid higher would be impolite. Even though these planar lords at the ninth stage of Hedao had considerable wealth, they were reluctant.
Just as everyone believed this first ball of Heavenly Dao Will would be secured by Chen Yixian.
The voice from the second life spirit puppet rang out once more.
"Thirty million spirit stones."
"Hiss! Rich dude! This is a genuinely rich dude!"
"Brother, are you still taking younger brothers? I'm willing to serve you like a beast of burden!"
The eyes of the guests in the general seating were about to pop out.
They even felt that the thirty million spirit stones the second life spirit puppet mentioned sounded as casual as three thousand yuan.
To put it bluntly, thirty million spirit stones could even buy their lives with plenty left over.
How could such a distinguished guest be in the general seating? Shouldn't they be in a VIP box?
Then, Zhu Si's voice sounded again. Having seen the spirit stones in the second life spirit puppet's spatial ring earlier, he was not too surprised and directly began to strike his auction hammer.
"Thirty million spirit stones, once!"
"Thirty million spirit stones, twice!"
"Thirty million spirit stones, thrice!"
"Congratulations, Dao friend..."
Without any surprise, no one else bid.
This round, it was sheer financial power, an overwhelming crush of wealth.
Even the supreme cultivators at the ninth stage of Hedao, pooling the wealth of their entire regions, had to shy away.
The second life spirit puppet, which had acquired the first ball of Heavenly Dao Will at the Hedao stage, remained exceptionally calm. Its face showed no expression.
Or rather, Li Qi himself was extremely calm.
This Heavenly Dao Will at the Hedao stage was something he had to obtain. If someone had continued to bid, Li Qi would have followed suit.
There was nothing he could do. He wasn't bragging, but at present, spirit stones were just a string of numbers to him.
Li Qi had no interest in spirit stones. What he missed most was the time before he had cheats, when he had to work outside for half a month every month at the Feisha Sect, exhausting himself to earn twenty to thirty spirit stones.
Zhu Si's voice sounded again, without any delay.
"The first ball of Heavenly Dao Will has found its owner. The auction for the second ball of Heavenly Dao Will will now commence."
As his words fell.
Immediately, from another VIP box, a voice rang out.
"Twenty-five million spirit stones."
But it was clear that the final owner of this ball of Heavenly Dao Will was still the second life spirit puppet.
The second life spirit puppet didn't even wait for others to slowly increase their bids.
With a single sentence, it threw out thirty million spirit stones again, silencing the entire venue.
The auction for the third ball of Heavenly Dao Will was even simpler, even simpler than Li Qi had expected.
As the third ball of Heavenly Dao Will was just beginning to be auctioned, and the planar lords in some VIP boxes were about to call out their bids.
But before they could utter the words, they saw the second life spirit puppet stand up again, and they swallowed their words.
From the second life spirit puppet's mouth, it lightly called out the sum of twenty-five million spirit stones.
If someone else had called out this price, they might have been tempted to try.
But the one who called out this price was the second life spirit puppet.
There was no doubt that if they dared to bid higher, the second life spirit puppet would immediately follow up with another thirty million.
Thus, all three balls of Heavenly Dao Will at the third stage of Hedao were all successfully auctioned by the second life spirit puppet.
