The Divine level spinal bone on the auction stage had been obtained from a tomb by a small group of grave robbers. Later on, it was sold to Hildebrand, the leader of the Great Western City's underground influences.
At the start, Hildebrand had been extremely excited when he saw this Divine level spinal bone. However, after countless attempts, he discovered that the Divine level intent within it had already disappeared. Instead, it contained another extremely evil intent. Once one came into contact with it, one would be attacked, and its prowess would not be any lower than that of a Divine level expert.
Unless a Divine level expert were to take action, there was no way it could be used to forge weapons.
Moreover, the price to get a Divine level expert to remove the evil intent was far too high. The gains did not make up for the losses. Therefore, he decided to put it up for auction and let whoever bought it have a headache.
Elsewhere, Fang Xingjian looked at the Divine level spinal bone on the stage, and his eyes revealed an interested expression. If it could be said that he had casually bought all the other auction items earlier, then this Divine level spinal bone had piqued his interest.
Lilia, who was sitting on his lap, wiggled her little butt and said, "Teacher, you wish to buy this Divine level spinal bone?"
Fang Xingjian nodded and looked at the spinal bone on the stage without taking his eyes off it. He said, "Mmm, if this Divine level spinal bone is used to make a longsword, it'll be the best."
Just then, Hoppes made the first bid, "One million gold!"
This was the highest bid in the entire auction tonight, instantly extinguishing the thoughts of most people who wanted to bid.
However, it was not as if there was no one else bidding. Tynon stared at the Divine level spinal bone with bloodshot eyes and made a bid, "1.1 million gold." He still had 1.8 million gold left from the auction earlier. His plan was to get the Divine level spinal bone even if he had to fork out all 1.8 million gold.
Hoppes stood up as well, clenching his fists tightly as he looked at the Divine level spinal bone. As a follower of a Divine level expert and someone who had come into contact with a Divine level expert before, he was probably the one who understood the prowess of the Divine Remains Equipment created from the Divine level spinal bone the best.
Hearing Tynon's bid, he immediately said, "1.2 million gold!"
But just as he said that, before the attendant could even step out to bid, he heard a cold voice from room number one, "Three million gold." It was the voice of the attendant in room number one.
Three million gold. This was even more than the price of all the auctioned items added together. Such a terrifying amount of money was like a heavy mountain pressing down on Hoppes, making him unable to summon any will to resist.
Hoppes let out a breath and said, "To be able to fork out so much money in one go, it's probably either Xiao Tianxia or Austin."
Miley said, "Don't forget about Fang Xingjian."
Hoppes frowned. "His money shouldn't have arrived so quickly, right?"
"That's hard to say." Miley shook her head and said, "I heard from my father that the archbishop grants Fang Xingjian anything he asks for. It's not impossible for him to get the funds transferred quickly. Do you think this Fang Xingjian has anything to do with the Holy See of Truth? "First it was Lord Holy Orison, and now it's the archbishop. To think that all of them are siding with him."
Hoppes shook his head, looked at the Divine level spinal bone with great desire, and said, "Who knows?"
In another room, Tynon gritted his teeth and glared fiercely in the direction of room number one. "It's you again! It's you again! Who on earth is in room number one? Don't let me know... "
However, it was impossible for Tynon to make a move in the auction hall.
Therefore, he could only watch on angrily. The moment the auction ended, he headed for room number one, only to be told that the other party had already left.
He angrily punched the wall, creating a small pit. Just then, he saw Hildebrand walking over.
"Tynon, are you thinking of tearing down my place?"
Tynon released his grip and said, "I'm sorry, I was too agitated."
Hildebrand smiled, shook his head, and said, "I think you're preparing to find trouble with the person in room number one. I'd advise you to give up on this idea."
"Why?" Tynon looked at Hildebrand in disbelief and asked, "What's his background?"
Hildebrand shook his head. "According to the rules of the auction hall, I can't reveal my identity to you. However, I can tell you that the money he earned today was earned by himself. "Although he's young, he's extremely talented and has already formed a connection with the Holy See of Truth. I'd advise you not to have any ideas about him."
Tynon narrowed his eyes, nodded at Hildebrand, and left.
Peter asked, "Will he make a move?"
"Tynon is a rash person who gets easily angered and has a bad temper. Now that he's gotten much stronger, if it wasn't because he's not confident, he'd probably even dare to make a move against me. Why wouldn't he dare to make a move against Fang Xingjian?" Hildebrand said, "It'd be for the best if he makes a move. He can help me probe Fang Xingjian's background. It's fine if he doesn't make a move. After all, I've already profited greatly from the auction."
…
Tynon only needed to ask around to find out who Hildebrand was talking about. Therefore, he followed behind Fang Xingjian's carriage, tailing it.
The people in the carriage were Fang Xingjian and Lilia. If Fang Xingjian was alone, he would have flown back immediately. However, Lilia was not even a Knight and her physical attributes were too weak. Therefore, it was impossible for him to carry her back.
Right now, there were three boxes in the carriage, from big to small. They were the geomagnetic essence, the Golden Elixir, and the Divine level spinal bone. Since they were taking the carriage, Fang Xingjian did not plan on wasting any time.
He opened up the geomagnetic essence and held onto it. He started to absorb the heavenly thunders and terrestrial magnetism forces within it.
Streams of white electric currents continued to spread out on his palm, and violent heavenly thunders and terrestrial magnetism forces continued to gush into Fang Xingjian's body, strengthening his body.
After a short half an hour, the geomagnetic essence turned into dust. Fang Xingjian opened his eyes, and there seemed to be electricity flashing in his pupils.
He had already received the nourishment from the Divine blood essence to begin with, and the toughness of his body had been raised to the level of a level 28 Superior Divine Weapon. After absorbing this geomagnetic essence, the toughness of his body increased once again. His body became even more compact, and the connection between the physical particles also became more stable.
However, he was still a long way from reaching the level of a level 29 Superior Divine Weapon.
'It's a pity that geomagnetic essence is rare to begin with, and such fine items are even rarer. '
Just then, a skinny old man with a dry face caught up and shouted, "Wait a minute, wait a minute! There's something you guys have forgotten."
The carriage came to a stop, and the old man placed one hand on the carriage, panting as he said, "Wait a minute, wait a minute..."
However, at the next moment, the carriage and all the items on it seemed to have been sucked into a huge vortex, instantly disappearing from the old man's palm which he had placed on the carriage.
The old man let out a maniacal laugh, and his body shot out explosively like a bolt of lightning. Information currents gushed out wildly, "Fang Xingjian, all the divine items in the world belong to those who are virtuous. It seems that you're not virtuous enough."
However, he had just run out a distance of 200 meters when a pair of eyes filled with killing intent appeared before him, and an endless tyrannical will descended from the skies.
"Oh? Is that so? "
