The appearance of the three storage rings turned the entire auction hall into a frenzy.

Especially those with the ability to bid, each one showed a look of excitement, even appearing somewhat impatient.

One must know, these three storage rings are far more precious than the previous storage bracelet.

Because they not only have a storage space of a hundred cubic units, but they also possess the ability to recognize a master, which elevates their value by at least a level.

As for the defense array inscribed on them, it is quite useful for Martial Cultivators in the Innate Realm, as it can withstand nine full-force attacks from a half-step Meridian Passage Realm, effectively giving them nine more chances at survival.

Of course, to Martial Cultivators in the Meridian Passage Realm, this array naturally loses its significance, as any casual strike from them can easily obliterate a half-step Meridian Passage Realm.

However, those few with cultivation in the Meridian Passage Realm are still determined to acquire these three storage rings.

"Luckily, before leaving Jingyun Palace this time, I brought all my Spirit Stones; I must at least acquire one of these three storage rings."

A gleam shone through Su He's eyes as he murmured to himself.

Quite a number of people, like Xiahou Yan, dispatched people to urgently return home to fetch enough Spirit Stones.

Moreover, the Spirit Stones they sought to retrieve were all medium-grade, as they knew very well that considering the value of these three storage rings, the final bidding would inevitably be conducted with medium-grade Spirit Stones.

It's known that one medium-grade Spirit Stone is equivalent to a hundred lower-grade Spirit Stones.

Although generally speaking, one medium-grade Spirit Stone can be exchanged for a hundred lower-grade Spirit Stones, and a hundred lower-grade Spirit Stones can also be exchanged for one medium-grade Spirit Stone, no one is willing to do so.

Because the spiritual power contained in medium-grade Spirit Stones is at least a hundred times that of lower-grade Spirit Stones, and much purer.

It might not be very noticeable for Martial Cultivators in the Innate Realm, but once one sets foot in the Meridian Passage Realm, the auxiliary effect of lower-grade Spirit Stones for cultivation is greatly diminished, being almost negligible for Martial Cultivators in the Essence Pill Realm.

For this very reason, Martial Cultivators in the Meridian Passage Realm and Essence Pill Realm almost exclusively use medium-grade Spirit Stones to assist in cultivation, while those above the Essence Pill Realm require upper-grade Spirit Stones for assistance.

"It seems the medium-grade and upper-grade Spirit Stones I obtained from my father will have to be used."

Through the huge transparent crystal, Ling Yu naturally noticed the commotion among the people, then silently thought to himself.

Originally, he did not intend to use the tens of thousands of medium-grade Spirit Stones and thousands of upper-grade Spirit Stones on himself, even when the storage bracelet was auctioned earlier, he resisted not using them.

But now, these three storage rings greatly tempted him, and he planned to win two, using one for himself and gifting the other to Xiao Yingxue.

He believed that as long as he gifted this storage ring to Xiao Yingxue, he would surely win her favor.

As for Xueyao, sitting beside him, she no longer had the qualifications to inspire any thoughts from him, and he had completely lost patience. After the auction ended, he would annihilate Wang Ruoxie, who didn't know what was good for him, and then enjoy the delightful body of the "slut" Xueyao.

He wanted to see if this "slut" would still act so aloof when she was under him.

"Now, the auction for the first storage ring begins, with a starting price of five million lower-grade Spirit Stones, each increase must not be less than one million lower-grade Spirit Stones."

After waiting about half an hour, Xiao Yingxue told everyone again.

The reason for delaying the auction by half an hour was to allow everyone to gather enough Spirit Stones.

Although these three rings were not possessions of the Myriad Treasures Pavilion, if they could fetch a high price, the commission they would receive would still be considerable.

"Six million lower-grade Spirit Stones."

"Seven million lower-grade Spirit Stones."

...

"Ten million lower-grade Spirit Stones."

Seeing the price of the storage ring rapidly climbing, a faint smile appeared in Wang Ruoxie's eyes as well.

He knew this was far from the final price; it seemed that these three storage rings today would bring him a substantial profit.

"Eleven thousand medium-grade Spirit Stones."

At this moment, Su He also began to bid, and directly offered eleven thousand medium-grade Spirit Stones.

Although generally speaking, eleven thousand medium-grade Spirit Stones are equivalent to eleven million lower-grade Spirit Stones, in reality, the value of eleven thousand medium-grade Spirit Stones exceeds that of eleven million lower-grade Spirit Stones by a large margin.

"Twelve thousand medium-grade Spirit Stones."

"Thirteen thousand medium-grade Spirit Stones."

...

At this point, only a few high-ranking members of major forces like Su He were still bidding. They all had cultivation in the Meridian Passage Realm and not much difference in wealth, so the competition was fierce.

"Gentlemen, I, Su He, want this storage ring; I hope you will let me have it. I will not compete with you for the remaining two storage rings, how about that?"

Su He spoke to the other Meridian Passage Realm individuals.

"Su He, we gave you face for the previous Earth Essence Fruit, didn't continue bidding. Blame yourself for being useless and let a little guy snatch it."

Upon hearing Su He's words, one of the Meridian Passage Realm individuals spoke, "I too, Zhao Lingqing, am determined to get this storage ring. Why don't you let me have this one first, and you can compete for the remaining two storage rings, how about it?"

After saying that, he called out, "Fifteen thousand medium-grade Spirit Stones."

These storage treasures of such level are hard to come by, and with only three in total, selling one means one less. It can be imagined that the competition for the remaining two storage rings will inevitably be more intense.

So relatively speaking, the first one will be much easier to bid on, and the price will not be too high.

"So it is the Third Elder Zhao Lingqing of Biling Sect."

"Biling Sect and Jingyun Palace are comparable in strength, both being among the top sects in the Fire Cloud Kingdom. No wonder Zhao Lingqing dares not to give Su He face."

Hearing Zhao Lingqing's words, many whispered amongst themselves.

"Twenty thousand medium-grade Spirit Stones."

At this moment, Ling Yu also joined the bidding, and directly raised the price to twenty thousand medium-grade Spirit Stones with his first bid.

As Ling Yu's words fell, the entire auction hall abruptly fell silent, and everyone looked with astonished eyes towards the private room where Wang Ruoxie's group was, wondering why it was bidding from this number twenty-seven private room again.

However, they could tell that the person bidding this time seemed to be a young person too, but not the one who had previously offended Xiahou Yan and Su He.

Hearing Ling Yu's bid of twenty thousand medium-grade Spirit Stones, Su He and the other Meridian Passage cultivators furrowed their brows. Although they still had the ability to continue bidding, such a sky-high price was making it difficult for them to bear.

Then they remembered there were two more identical storage rings to be auctioned after this, so they all chose to forgo further bidding.

After waiting for a moment, seeing no one else bidding, Xiao Yingxue smiled and said, "Congratulations to the guest in the number twenty-seven private room on winning the bid for the first storage ring."

After securing the storage ring, Ling Yu proudly glanced at Xueyao and Wang Ruoxie, as if saying to them, "See, this is the financial power of the son of a ninth-rank Marquis of the Great Yu Imperial Dynasty. In terms of this aspect alone, even a strong person in the Meridian Passage Realm cannot compare with me."

However, he didn't know that Wang Ruoxie was secretly amused in his heart at this moment.
