"What news?" Seeing the mysterious look on Zhang Zide's face, Lin Qian hurriedly asked.
Zhang Zide smiled and said, "A clansman sent me a message saying that in the ancient records section, they found the body tempering manual that Brother Lin wants!"
"Body tempering manual? Let's go take a look! "Hearing Zhang Zide's words, Lin Qian's face lit up with joy.
The body tempering manual was crucial to the success of the Puppet Body project.
The earlier they obtained this manual, the earlier they could complete the Puppet Body project. The generals of the Hua Xia Empire, other than Zhao Long, the five generals and the Prime Minister, would all be able to appear!
At the same time, Lin Qian also hurried towards the ancient records section with the rest following closely behind.
In the third level of the Treasury Gathering Hall, following Zhang Zide's directions, they arrived at the location where the young clansman had sent the message.
"Well done." Zhang Zide patted the young clansman's shoulder and handed him ten thousand mid grade soul crystals to express his gratitude.
After receiving the soul crystals, the young clansman also left with a smile on his face. Just sending a message and he received ten thousand mid grade soul crystals, of course it was worth it.
Lin Qian came to the front of the counter. On the counter was an ancient book. From the outside, the pages were slightly flipped, as if it had been flipped by many people. There was nothing special about it.
The paper used in the ancient book was processed with special materials, and it was even made with the techniques of refining weapons. It was not corrosive, and did not fear water or fire. It could be preserved very well.
On the thick ancient book, the words' body tempering 'were indeed written. It was the ancient book that Lin Qian was looking for. There was no mistake about it, but he did not know what the contents were.
However, in the Treasure Gambling Hall, ancient books could not be considered gambling. Instead, they would be appraised and sold at an accurate price.
After all, there were not many things like ancient books. The value of an ancient book could be seen at a glance, so there was really no need to gamble.
Another thing that was similar to ancient books were medicinal pills. An experienced alchemist only needed to smell it and look at its color to know the grade of the medicinal pill.
Moreover, many of the jade bottles containing the elixirs from the Ancient Ruins had already been labeled with the elixirs.
"Brother Lin, you spent so much effort to find these books, and they only cost you so few soul crystals?" Li Yunfeng crossed his arms in front of his chest and glanced at the price on the counter. His eyes widened in surprise.
When he heard about the body refinement, his face was covered by the Water Breathing Soul Tool, so his expression could not be seen.
However, Li Yunfeng could clearly see the joy in Lin Qian's eyes.
Logically speaking, a book that Lin Qian valued so much should be expensive, but the price on the counter was only a mere 200,000 mid-grade soul crystals.
Compared to the other prices, this was the cheapest batch of items.
"Little Qian, could there be a mistake? Maybe it's just the same name?" Ye Xin also looked at the ancient book in the array on the counter. After thinking for a while, she opened her mouth and said.
Lin Qian also nodded lightly. He looked at the counter in front of him and said seriously, "Whether it's the same name or not, we have to buy it. We can't give up any hope."
As for the authenticity of this body refinement book, Lin Qian was still very confident.
According to the introduction and table of contents of the body refinement book, the method of refining weapons in this book was not very practical.
According to Zhuge Ming, even if the puppet described in the body refinement book was made, it would have meridians and Dantian, but there would be no room for soul crystals. It could only be considered a decoration.
This body refinement book could only be considered as an idea and was not useful to others. However, it had some value as a reference, which was why it was so expensive.
But to Lin Qian, it could not be more important!
Then, a light blue metal token appeared in Lin Qian's hand. After pouring soul power into it, he waved it at the counter in front of him.
Then, a ray of blue light shot towards the barrier of the counter.
The light blue token in Lin Qian's hand had been obtained from the administrative office in the center of the first floor when he entered the Treasury Gathering Hall.
If there was something that caught his eye and he wanted to buy it, he only needed to activate the token with soul power and enter it into the array barrier on the counter.
Then, he only needed to return to the center of the first floor and pay enough soul crystals to get the item he wanted.
However, there were exceptions.
Not long after Lin Qian shot the blue light at the counter where the body refinement book was, another blue light appeared and entered the array barrier on the counter.
At the same time, the price of the array formation soul power condensed on the counter changed from 100,000 to 150,000.
Lin Qian's face darkened. He tilted his head and looked in the direction of the blue light.
Not far away, a group of people stood. They were none other than the people from the Northern Line Clan. Their leader was, of course, Zhang Keren.
Zhang Keren was also holding a light blue token in his hand. It was obvious that the blue light from before had come from him.
What Zhang Keren did was an exception!
Once an item had caught his eye, he would use the token to send a blue light into the array barrier on the counter to bid for it.
However, it would take three breaths of time to confirm that it was him who had bought it. Before that, other people could continue to buy it, but they had to increase the original price. The starting price was 50,000 mid-grade soul crystals!
In other words, if two or more people had their eyes on the same item, they could bid for it.
After three breaths of time, the final bidder would be the true owner of the item.
Lin Qian frowned slightly. He raised the token in his hand and waved it again. A blue light emerged and entered the array barrier. The price immediately became 300,000 mid-grade soul crystals.
Obviously, Lin Qian had increased the price by 150,000 mid-grade soul crystals in one go. He was determined to get it.
Seeing that Lin Qian had increased the price to 300,000 mid-grade soul crystals, Zhang Keren only smiled and did not say anything. Before three breaths of time, he waved his hand again and sent out a blue light. The price also changed to 350,000 mid-grade soul crystals.
"Clan Leader Zhang, what do you mean by this?" Zhang Zide asked with a frown.
Seeing that Zhang Zide had spoken, Zhang Keren pretended to be surprised. "Ah, isn't this just being complacent? I don't mean anything by it. I just saw this body tempering manual and was a little curious. I wanted to take a look at it. This Treasure Gambling Conference wouldn't prohibit others from bidding, right? "
Lin Qian did not say much. He raised the token in his hand again and waved it towards the array barrier.
One million mid-grade soul crystals!
In the next moment, Zhang Keren smiled and shook the token in his hand. The price jumped again.
One million and fifty thousand mid-grade soul crystals!
Seeing this, Ye Xin, who was beside Lin Qian, said coldly, "Clan Leader Zhang, you are simply causing trouble!"
Lin Qian really wanted this body tempering manual. Therefore, he directly raised the price to one million mid-grade soul crystals.
As for this Zhang Keren, he still casually added another 50,000 mid-grade soul crystals. From the looks of it, it was clear that he wasn't interested in the body tempering manual. It was purely because he could tell that Lin Qian wanted the manual to annoy him!
