In the end, the incomplete Top Grade Heaven Level Cultivation Method was sold for 6300 spirit shells. If it was a complete Top Grade Heaven Level Cultivation Method, its value would be several times higher.
Under normal circumstances, no one would take out a complete Heaven Level Superb Art to sell.
The 69th auction item!
The 70th auction item!
The 71st auction item!
…
One by one, the auction items soon exceeded 100. However, Chen Zong still did not bid because there was no treasure that could really attract his attention.
The next auction item was a jade booklet. The light it emitted was red, like the flame after the burning of Qi and blood. It was so hot that people could feel the light and heat.
It was a very special jade booklet. Chen Zong's eyes could not help but be attracted to it.
"This is a special jade booklet." The auctioneer said loudly and raised the jade booklet high. The blood-red light seemed to be more intense. "This jade booklet records a special martial art."
Everyone held their breath, waiting for the auctioneer's next words.
"This is a Body Refining Martial Art." As the auctioneer's words fell, exclamations sounded everywhere, one after another.
Many martial artists of the Body Refining Lineage knew that it was an extremely arduous and resource-consuming cultivation path. Although it was very strong, it still required a great deal of effort and resources, so it gradually declined.
However, there were still some warriors who would cultivate the Body Refining Lineage. It was even said that there were warriors who mainly cultivated the Body Refining Lineage.
Such a Body Refining Martial Art was not attractive to most warriors, so it was naturally worthless. However, it was different for warriors who cultivated the Body Refining Lineage.
"According to our detection, this is a Heaven Level Body Refining Martial Art."
The auctioneer's words caused more surprise. There were not many Body Refining Lineage martial arts, and there were even fewer high-grade ones. A Heaven Level martial art was even rarer.
The classification of Body Refining Martial Arts was similar to that of Qi Cultivation Martial Arts. The similarity was in Human Level, Earth Level, and Heaven Level. The difference was that there was no Lower, Middle, Upper, or even Supreme Level Qi Cultivation Martial Arts.
"The starting price is 5,000 spirit shells, and each bid must be no less than 100 spirit shells. Let the bidding begin." The auctioneer's voice fell.
The starting price of 5,000 spirit shells was indeed not low. For a moment, no one made a bid. The whole place was in a strange silence. As time passed, the auctioneer's forehead was slightly sweating. If no one made a bid, then the jade booklet would not be sold. This would undoubtedly be a blow to the heated atmosphere of the auction.
"A Heaven Tier Body Refinement Martial Art. Interesting. I'll bid for it and study it." A slightly frivolous voice sounded from a room on the second floor. "5100."
The auctioneer heaved a sigh of relief.
"5,100 spirit shells going once …" Seeing that there were no other bids after the first bid, the auctioneer had no choice but to say something.
"5100 spirit shells going twice …" Soon after, the mallet was raised high. As long as he shouted the third time, it would be knocked down, signifying that the deal had been struck.
"5200." Another person bid, causing the auctioneer to let out a sigh of relief.
"Oh, there's actually someone who wants to compete with this young master. Five thousand five hundred." The person who bid first increased the price.
"5600." Another person also increased the price.
"6000." The third person who bid was Chen Zong.
From the beginning of the Body Refinement Martial Art to the current Mysterious Jade Golden Bone Technique, Chen Zong was quite interested in the Body Refinement Martial Art. Naturally, he wanted to comprehend and cultivate the Body Refinement Martial Art if he could obtain it. He wanted to see how it was different from the Qi Refinement Martial Art.
"6500. I'm Gu Yaoyang." The voice of the first bidder sounded again. It was less frivolous, but more serious. It even seemed to carry a hint of threat.
"Gu Yaoyang?"
"Who is Gu Yaoyang?"
Some people who did not immediately react started to talk about it.
"You don't even know who Gu Yaoyang is? He's one of the Ten Rising Stars."
"One of the Ten Rising Stars, Zhengyangzi, Gu Zhiyang's younger brother, the son of the Zhenyang Sect's leader."
The more titles were listed, the more frightening they were.
Chen Zong was also quite surprised. It turned out to be one of the Ten Rising Stars, Gu Yaoyang. However, this name alone was not enough to scare Chen Zong. He continued to bid as he should.
The other person who heard Gu Yaoyang's name gave up the bid. He was probably worried about offending Gu Yaoyang.
"6600." Chen Zong bid again.
In a wing room, a young man wearing a red robe and a fiery red feather crown had a smile on his face. He thought that no one would dare to bid with him after he announced his name. However, when he heard the words "6600", his face suddenly changed. There seemed to be a strong fire in his eyes that was mixed with killing intent.
"8000!" In a fit of anger, Gu Yaoyang directly raised the price by more than 1000 spirit shells.
"8,100." Chen Zong quoted the price neither too fast nor too slow. Gu Yaoyang suddenly had the urge to vomit blood.
Everyone else had a strange look on their faces. They were all guessing who it was that dared to go against Gu Yaoyang.
"I am Gu Yaoyang from the Zhenyang Sect. Who are you? Do you want to go against me and the Zhenyang Sect?" Gu Yaoyang did not continue bidding. Instead, he asked fiercely.
"I am only participating in the auction. I have no intention of going against the Zhenyang Sect." Chen Zong responded slowly. After all, being labeled as an enemy of the Zhenyang Sect was not a good thing. Not only would it bring him a lot of trouble, it would also bring a lot of trouble to the Zhenyang Sword Sect.
"Good, very good. I bid 9000." Gu Yaoyang said fiercely. His eyes were sharp as if he wanted to see through the room and see Chen Zong. In fact, he could not see anything.
"9100." Chen Zong bid again. Gu Yaoyang almost spat out a mouthful of blood. He clenched his teeth and the veins on his forehead bulged. His face was ferocious, and a terrifying killing intent lingered around him. The temperature of the air around him quickly rose.
"I bid 10000. If you dare to bid again, I will let you have this item. However, you have to think clearly. The consequences are not something you can bear." Gu Yaoyang said fiercely.
"10100." Without any hesitation, Chen Zong bid again, as if he didn't put Gu Yaoyang in his eyes at all. This kind of feeling was like someone was using a hand full of calluses to fiercely slap his white face back and forth. His killing intent was blazing, and his anger was bursting. Gu Yaoyang couldn't wait to rush out and kill that person on the spot.
"Young Master Gu, this is the Dayu Trading Company's auction. Please follow the rules." The auctioneer said. It sounded like advice, but there was also a hidden warning.
The Zhenyang Sect was indeed very powerful, but the Dayu Trading Company was not afraid of them. If there was a conflict, the Zhenyang Sect would have the upper hand, but they would also suffer a great loss.
The other three Sect were also eyeing them. If the Zhenyang Sect suffered a great loss, then the rest would be divided up.
Suppressing his anger, Gu Yaoyang did not dare to do anything excessive. However, he secretly swore that he would definitely find the person who dared to bid against him and vent his anger.
In his anger, Gu Yaoyang did not even think about whether he was a match for the other party.
"10100 going thrice … sold!" The auctioneer's mallet fell, and the sound echoed throughout the whole place.
Although the final price was not in line with the price in their hearts, it was not bad that the item was not sold out. Moreover, after several bids, the atmosphere from before was maintained.
The items that had been bid for would be collected after the auction. If they went back on their word, they would have to pay half the value of the auction item as compensation. This was the Dayu Trading Company's rule.
Many people were guessing who the person who bid against Gu Yaoyang was, but this did not hinder the next auction.
One after another, the auction items were brought up for bidding, and the atmosphere became even more lively.
The next item to be auctioned was a pseudo-spiritual weapon. It was a silver-white long saber with a long and narrow body and a sharp tip. Just looking at it would cause people's eyes to hurt. This was a third-rank pseudo-spiritual weapon and was very valuable.
In the end, the third-level pseudo spiritual weapon was sold for 26,000 spirit shells. It was a high price, and the atmosphere of the auction was pushed to a new level.
…
The 169th item.
It was a fist-sized fiery red stone with an irregular shape. It looked like a burning ruby, emitting waves of heat.
"This stone is a treasure that our trading company obtained from a volcano. It is called the Earth Flame Body Incineration Stone. Not only can this item be used to forge weapons, it can also be used to cultivate fire attributed True Power. It can also be used to refine the body." The auctioneer's voice echoed throughout the whole place. Suddenly, Chen Zong's eyes lit up.
The treasure that Deacon Yang mentioned before that was useful for refining the body was most likely this Earth Flame Body Incineration Stone.
He was determined to get it!
Chen Zong felt that if he could get this Earth Flame Body Incineration Stone, he might be able to complete the second stage of the Mysterious Jade Golden Bone Technique.
Gu Yaoyang's eyes also lit up, staring at the Earth Flame Body Incineration Stone. His gaze was filled with passion, and he could not wait to take the Earth Flame Body Incineration Stone for himself.
The True Yang Sect's Secret Arts focused on blazing heat, leaning towards the fire attribute. This Earth Flame Body Incineration Stone could play a big role in his cultivation of True Qi. Moreover, he also cultivated a Body Tempering Secret Art, so this Earth Flame Body Incineration Stone was very suitable for him.
"It's mine." Gu Yaoyang whispered, his tone filled with certainty.
"A good treasure, but for me, it's useless." This was a Transcendent Realm master who cultivated a fire attribute Secret Art.
Up until now, none of the Transcendents on the third floor had made a bid, because although the previous hundred or so auction items were quite good, to Transcendents, they weren't worth much. Their purpose was to compete for the final few auction items, so naturally they wouldn't waste their Spirit Shells or Spirit Sources.
This Earth Flame Body Incineration Stone was not tempted by Transcendents, but some pseudo Transcendents were.
"If I can obtain this Earth Flame Body Incineration Stone, maybe I can break through to the final stage of my Secret Art. At that time, I'll have more hope of breaking through to the Transcendent Realm." This was a pseudo Transcendent Realm master who cultivated a fire attribute Secret Art. His pupils seemed to have turned red, as if flames were burning within them.
"This Earth Flame Body Incineration Stone is a good treasure. If I can obtain it and offer it to Grandmaster Feng, my son will definitely become his disciple."
Unlike the previous Body Tempering Heaven Grade Martial Arts, the Earth Flame Body Incineration Stone was much more useful. After all, not only was it suitable for Body Tempering, it was also suitable for Qi Refining, and it was also suitable for forging weapons.
