The second Heavenly Peach was sold for a staggering five hundred and fifty thousand dollars. One after another, the auction continued smoothly, and by the end, all twenty of Ye Chen's Heavenly Peaches had been sold. In total, Ye Chen earned nearly twelve million dollars—an amount he had never even dreamed of making in a single day.
His dream of turning his life around had finally come true. Ye Chen was now a young millionaire.
The people who won the peaches were ecstatic. Some paid on the spot and left with the fruit carefully guarded in their hands, holding them like priceless treasures. Others simply hugged the peaches close, as if embracing a piece of heaven itself.
As for those who failed to win any, disappointment was written all over their faces. Even a single bite of the fruit had left a lasting impression—they would never forget the taste of a Heavenly Peach.
"Ye Chen, you did it! All of your peaches sold at such a high price!" Liu Yue beamed, sitting beside Ye Chen and watching the auction proceedings with satisfaction.
Ye Chen smiled, grateful for her support. "This is all thanks to you, Liu Yue. If it weren't for your company's auction, I probably would've only sold them for a few thousand dollars each."
Liu Yue chuckled playfully. "Then remember to give me free peaches whenever you've got them, okay?"
Ye Chen nodded with a small grin. "Of course."
The auction continued. One by one, various items were presented—antique furniture, rare paintings, fine jewelry, and more. Some were bought for extravagant sums, drawing gasps from the audience.
Ye Chen, however, felt slightly disappointed. While these items were valuable, he hadn't found anything that truly piqued his interest.
Just then, the host spoke again, this time with more excitement in her voice.
"Ladies and gentlemen, we've now reached the final segment of today's auction! Three rare items will be presented—please bring out the first!"
Two assistants carried a mysterious object onto the stage, covered with a dark velvet cloth.
Ye Chen's eyes narrowed. He could sense a faint spiritual energy coming from it.
"There's something unusual about that item…" he thought.
Suddenly, Chu Yuechan's voice echoed in his mind.
"Ye Chen, you must get that pendant."
Ye Chen raised an eyebrow. "Yuechan, do you recognize it? What kind of artifact is it?"
Chu Yuechan responded with urgency, "It's a Heavenly Tier spiritual artifact. I didn't expect to see one appear in a place like this. Its name is the Reideran Pendant Necklace."
Ye Chen was stunned. He had learned from Gu Xuan that beyond the tenth tier, spiritual artifacts were ranked even higher—Earth Tier, Heaven Tier, Legend Tier, and at the peak, the Heavenly Tier.
Heavenly Tier artifacts were considered legendary, said to defy the laws of the world. Even during the golden age of the gods, the greatest weapon forgers could only create Legend Tier tools, and even those took centuries or millennia to craft due to the rarity of materials.
As for Heavenly Tier artifacts, only a few existed—held by the Four True Gods and Five Demon Emperors. The Sage Deity, though lacking one, was still considered the most powerful among them.
In this current era, even Earth Tier artifacts were nearly impossible to find. If one appeared, it would likely cause a massacre among cultivators trying to claim it.
Yet now, Ye Chen had found a Heavenly Tier artifact in a common auction.
There was no way he could let this go.
"Yuechan, what does the Reideran Pendant actually do?" he asked curiously.
Chu Yuechan replied, "Its primary function is concealment. Most spiritual tools can only hide your strength when you're inactive. But with this pendant, even if you use your full power, your cultivation level will remain completely hidden."
Ye Chen's eyes gleamed. This pendant was a perfect trump card. In battle, underestimating your opponent could be fatal. If enemies thought he was weak, they'd drop their guard—and that's when he'd strike.
Chu Yuechan wasn't done.
"There's more. The pendant can also store your spiritual energy. You can charge it over time, and when released, that energy will explode in a devastating attack. The longer it's stored, the more terrifying the power becomes. But there's a drawback—if your opponent is fast enough, they might still dodge the attack."
Ye Chen's heart raced. A weapon like this could easily change the course of a battle.
At that moment, the host finally pulled back the cloth, revealing a white pendant necklace engraved with intricate, glowing patterns. It shimmered under the lights like stardust frozen in crystal.
"Ladies and gentlemen," the host announced, "this pendant was discovered deep within a cave in the forest. Its origins and use are unknown, but based on its craftsmanship, we believe it is quite old. The starting price is two million dollars. Bidding begins now!"
The crowd fell silent.
No one moved. No one spoke.
Even after thirty seconds passed, not a single bid was made.
The host looked awkward and confused. This was the final item in the auction—normally, such pieces attracted fierce competition. But due to the lack of information about the pendant, no one was willing to take the risk.
Just as the atmosphere began to feel tense and uncomfortable...
"Two million one hundred thousand."
A voice called out from one of the VIP rooms above the hall.
Everyone turned their heads toward the voice. People in the VIP rooms were known to be powerful and wealthy, so it would be difficult for anyone in the main hall to compete with them.
