Chapter 969: Auction of Strange Items
On the twenty-sixth day of the Ten Sages Soul Master Forum, the day for the rare item auction has arrived.
The so-called rare item auction, in essence, is to gather together all the items that cannot be classified into other categories for auction and put them together for one auction. Therefore, the value of the items varies greatly. The lowest is just over 100 million, and the highest may be sold at a price higher than that of a sacred object.
Different from previous luxury goods auctions, today, in addition to Liu Xiaoxiao, Chen Long, Dabao, Xiaopang and others also came to the box.
Compared to luxury items that are of no help in improving one's cultivation, and rare metals and soul guides that are completely unnecessary to consider, the auction of rare items has the greatest uncertainty, and perhaps there are some treasures that are suitable for them.
This time they didn't put many things up for auction, mainly because many of the rare items were unprocessed, or even things that they didn't know how to use. In the hands of the Ten Sages, it was obviously too wasteful to sell the raw materials directly. Only after they processed them would they become treasures. Purchasing the raw materials and processing them would also benefit them.
Unlike previous auctions, this time they will be primarily buyers rather than sellers.
The first thing to appear is a branch that is a gathering of the life essence of the elves' sacred tree. This branch is quite thick, more than two meters long, and carries rich life and elemental fluctuations. It is very suitable for being refined into a sword or a staff.
The Elf God Tree is the life core of the Elf Star. Although the Elf Star itself cannot give birth to a god-level strongman, the life core of the plane must also be at the god-level. The Elf Star has a strong breath of life. Even if its own level is not as good as Douluo Star, the level of its life core is close.
If this kind of thing fell into the hands of Liu Xiaoxiao and his people, they could definitely refine it into a divine weapon. However, the elves were not good at refining this kind of artifact-level stuff. Even if they used it for processing, they could only refine it roughly, which was a complete waste of resources. Therefore, they put it up for auction in exchange for the resources needed by the elves.
As a good thing to liven up the opening atmosphere, the starting price of this thing was set at 6 billion. In the end, Liu Xiaoxiao bought it for 8 billion and planned to refine it into a magic weapon and give it to his disciples after a while.
The second item that followed was also unusual. It was an egg provided by Silver Rose. To be more precise, it came from the alchemy of life in the alchemy school.
This thing incorporates dozens of soul beast materials, and no one knows what species will be produced. It is equivalent to a high-end blind box. The only thing that can be confirmed is that there are very high-intensity energy fluctuations in it, and its life energy is equivalent to that of a 100,000-year-old soul beast.
Finally, this thing was bought by Xiaopang for 1.3 billion federal coins.
The third lot is a pearl collected from the bottom of the Sudus Ocean in the east of the Orakir continent. According to identification, it has a very high energy fluctuation, which is equivalent to a special energy gem. Although it has not reached the god-level, it is quite close.
Energy gems of this level are already enough to be used in refining divine artifacts, and were eventually purchased by Liu Xiaoxiao for 1.7 billion federal coins.
Honestly speaking, the application of energy gems on Douluo Star is still in a relatively primitive stage. Although energy gems can also be used to make soul guides, the current technology for making soul guides is actually unable to fully utilize the functions of energy gems.
In the production of soul guides, forging is the foundation, followed by shaping, molding, quenching, polishing and other steps, and finally engraving the core magic array.
Rare metals can be directly engraved with soul guide arrays, but gemstones cannot! They can only be inlaid in certain parts and use the surrounding soul guide arrays to call upon the energy in them.
The most suitable way to utilize energy gems is alchemy.
In the magical world, alchemy can be used to create everything in the world. For example, herbs and animal corpses can be used to make pills, and energy gems can be used to make magic accessories.
However, Liu Xiaoxiao doesn’t know much about alchemy now. After everything is settled, maybe he can go to the Holy Demon Continent to seek advice.
The main reason why it's not now is that they are too busy to take care of themselves, and the reincarnation of the God of Punishment has entered a critical stage. If they rashly go over to disturb them and attract guys like Hermes and Rakshasa over, it will be much more troublesome.
As for the method of getting there, they still have it, at least they have the spatial coordinates, and they can get through by using a very troublesome method to arrange a complicated magic array.
Of course, if he could reach the god level, he could simply use the Sky-Breaking Sword to open up a space channel and go straight through. That would be very simple.
As a pseudo-super artifact of the space system, the Sword of Breaking Sky can easily travel across dimensions. However, Liu Xiaoxiao cannot unleash its true power before it reaches the god level.
The next few items were all fought over, but they didn't have much interest. They only participated in the bidding occasionally and watched quietly most of the time.
Among them, there are also items they provided for auction, such as the Soul Fusion Array Plate.
This thing allows multiple soul masters to perform a multi-in-one fusion technique, and can transfer and superimpose the soul power of multiple people across the void. It does not require too much coordination between soul masters, but the upper limit is the god level.
As for those above the god level, the current limitation lies not in the magic array, but in the materials that carry the divine power.
In addition, there are things like quenching stones, which can speed up the warming of battle armor, allowing battle armor of sufficient quality to be upgraded to the five-character, six-character or even higher levels more quickly. This is also what they have worked out, and they will first show it up at this auction, and then set the price according to the transaction price of the auction.
After that, some wonderful items appeared, such as a strange nebula captured from the universe, a complex combination of magic arrays, a mysterious stone from the bottom of the Southern Ocean, a soul-breaking seal that can remove most curses, a feather of the Kunpeng divine beast, a spiritual furnace from another dimension, the molt of a hundred thousand year old purple gold divine cicada, a terminal star spirit captured near a red giant, water from the Lake of Life, a magic scroll that stores a god-level strongman's full-scale defense, an elemental spiritual liquid condensed from the power of the elements, the bark fallen off an ancient golden tree, the five elements divine stone from another dimension, a soul skill scroll recording an angel's blessing, the snake slough of the Basnake divine beast, the blood essence of a true god, the jade of heaven that records the divine skill of creation, and so on.
It was almost noon and the auction was coming to an end. The third to last item was a complete corpse of an evil dragon, provided by the Dragon God Empire.
At present, the connection between Douluo Star and Elf Star has become relatively close, and on the side of Orakir Star, only the Dragon God Empire has a relatively good relationship, and the other countries are still maintaining a wait-and-see attitude for the time being.
The main body of the Dragon God Empire is the dragon people. They have the blood of the dragon clan, and many of their ancestors even ascended to the realm of gods.
The corpse of the evil dragon was left behind by the evil dragon that was sealed in a mountain range in the Dragon God Empire after being judged in the God Realm. That mountain range was renamed the Evil Dragon Mountain Range because of its existence.
Originally, the evil dragon was to be tortured and purified constantly, as the divine beast had a long lifespan, so the punishment over a long period of time was not fatal. However, since the disappearance of the divine realm, the seal had gradually weakened, and the vitality of the tortured evil dragon declined even faster, thus it perished over the years.
Although the evil dragon was dead, its evil spirit mixed with the death energy and continued to spread. A large number of ninth-level warriors from the Dragon God Empire continued to reinforce the seal, which was barely able to maintain it and prevent it from spreading.
This time the Dragon God Empire had to put it up for auction, actually they had no choice but to do so. The evil dragon was a divine beast, and they had no way to deal with it. In order to ask their wise men to solve it, they even promised to give all the rewards to the wise men. However, Liu Xiaoxiao and others were not short of this little money, so they thought it would be a better choice to let the Dragon God Empire owe them a favor, so they did not swallow this money.
Dragon bones, dragon scales, dragon blood, dragon horns, dragon marrow, dragon crystals, the entire body of a dragon is a treasure, especially for the owner of a dragon martial spirit.
Dragon bones, dragon scales, and dragon horns are all excellent materials for making magical artifacts. Dragon blood and dragon marrow can be used to temper the body and train the marrow. Dragon crystal is the product of the combination of spiritual consciousness and blood. It can be embedded in battle armor as the core, and it can also release dragon energy to strengthen the body, which is also of great benefit to the cultivation of spiritual consciousness.
Finally, the corpse of the evil dragon fell into He Qiang's hands at the price of 60 billion federal coins. The Long family certainly had a great demand for this kind of thing, and there were many owners of dark attribute true dragon martial spirits in the Long family. The most suitable one among them was naturally Long Youyan, who was the hope of the next generation of the Long family.
The second to last item is a Dark Demon Evil God Tiger Inner Core, which comes from a Dark Demon Evil God Tiger with 30,000 years of cultivation, and the provider is the Star Council.
The function of this thing is very simple. It can help one acquire a second martial soul, and it must be a top-level martial soul like the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger.
If one already possesses the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger Martial Soul or a similar Martial Soul, then a benign mutation will inevitably occur, which is equivalent to a second awakening.
Simply put, this will inevitably create a super talented soul master with top-level talent, and there is a high possibility of reaching the god level.
This thing caused the two major forces, Tang Sect and Silver Rose, to compete for a sky-high price. The starting price soared from 17 billion to 80 billion, and finally it was won by the Ten Sages.
Of course, they had no plans to add more martial spirits; this thing was for research.
If everyone could possess twin martial souls, the landscape of the soul master world would inevitably undergo tremendous changes. This would be no less than the feat of everyone becoming a soul master. After all, twin martial souls were directly linked to the term genius, and it was equivalent to being recommended to become a Titled Douluo, with a considerable chance of becoming an Ultimate Douluo or even a god-level powerhouse.
Although Liu Xiaoxiao had obtained an inner elixir of the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger before, he swallowed it directly, so there was nothing to study. Now that he has another one, he naturally has to study it carefully.
The last major item to appear on the auction list was the Lucky Flower brought out by Golden Dawn.
Of course, both the Golden Dawn and the Tang Sect have a certain tacit understanding on this matter. The Golden Dawn wants to return this item to the Tang Sect as a symbol of friendship, and the Golden Dawn also wants to take the opportunity to extort some money from them. After all, their funds are really not enough.
In the end, with the support of Silver Rose, this thing was sold for 120 billion.
Of course, the actual value of the lucky flower is far more than this, but its benefits were not fully described during the auction, otherwise the price would probably have been several times higher.
After the auction ended, everyone dispersed and returned to their own homes.
But for Liu Xiaoxiao, the real challenge has just begun.
In the afternoon, they will compete with the Blood God Legion team.
