Extreme Almightiest Young Master-Chapter 2033 - 2015: Auction Item
After three bids, still no one offered a higher price. Wang Fu immediately declared that this item belonged to VIP Room No. 9 and sent someone to deliver it to the room. Meanwhile, the auction continued...
On the other side, when the staff placed the Heart of Blazing Flame in the VIP Room and left, Fang Yan and Li Xing ignored the auction and focused their attention on the Heart of Blazing Flame.
"Fang Yan, what do you need this for?" Li Xing asked Fang Yan seriously, truly unable to understand why Fang Yan had been collecting materials recently and what he intended to do with them.
"Can’t you tell, brother?" Fang Yan looked at Li Xing and smiled as he replied.
"Don’t tell me you’re going to do Artifact Refining. These materials are already so precious, they’re used for crafting the most high-end Dharma Treasures, possibly even Immortal Artifacts. Do you have a friend who is a Refining Master?" Li Xing analyzed the situation, increasingly feeling that Fang Yan was collecting these materials for Artifact Refining. But crafting such high-level Dharma Treasures or Immortal Artifacts requires a Refining Master, and not just any Refining Master. Could Fang Yan possibly know such a person?
Li Xing could never have imagined what Fang Yan would say next...
"Why ask someone else? I’m an Artifact Refiner myself, remember? I told you before, brother!" Fang Yan looked at Li Xing, smiling, and said, "To be precise, I’m not planning to do Artifact Refining, but I have a special weapon and I want to upgrade it."
Fang Yan’s words hit Li Xing like a bolt from the blue. His mouth opened and closed, unable to speak. He was utterly shocked by Fang Yan’s revelation — not only was Fang Yan a Refining Master, but an exceptional one at that, leaving him at a loss for words to describe his feelings.
How could Fang Yan, who seemed just over twenty, be capable of crafting a Heavenly Grade Elixir was already unimaginable. Now capable of refining the top Dharma Treasures or Immortal Artifacts as well — how could anyone else even stand a chance? This seemed beyond human capability, like omnipotence!
On top of everything, Fang Yan wasn’t simply doing Artifact Refining but upgrading a weapon, which was far more challenging. Even if Fang Yan were the doppelganger of a younger master brother, it seemed impossible he could craft top-grade magical weapons or evoke such a phenomenon — it seemed downright impossible!
"Fang Yan... you... you perverse man." Li Xing pointed at Fang Yan, speaking angrily, feeling utterly defeated. From the moment he met his junior brother’s doppelganger, he had been continuously overwhelmed and at times felt like coughing up blood from sheer frustration!
"Brother, I told you before that basically, both I and my original self are practically omnipotent, so don’t get tangled up in our affairs anymore. At worst, you can watch when I upgrade the weapon." Fang Yan said with a smile, looking at Li Xing.
"That’s a promise then. I really want to see what you’re going to upgrade with such high-quality stuff and to what extent you can upgrade it. I haven’t seen such a thing before." Li Xing looked at Fang Yan and spoke immediately, genuinely curious about how far Fang Yan planned to upgrade his equipment.
"Alright then, it’s settled. Now let’s continue watching the auction. We still have many things to bid on." Fang Yan replied with a smile and then turned his attention back to the auction scene.
Seeing this, Li Xing said nothing more, also turning his attention back to the auction scene.
The auction continued, and compared to the previous one, the afternoon session far surpassed the morning in terms of transaction volume. After all, the items in the afternoon were far superior to those in the morning. Everyone knew the best items were in the afternoon auction, and this auction happened only once every decade across the continent, unprecedented in both quantity and quality!
Only the opening two lots had already lifted the atmosphere in the entire auction hall. Everyone was repeatedly bidding for their favored items, pushing prices to new heights as the scene buzzed with excitement.
Throughout the afternoon, Fang Yan and Li Xing managed to acquire over ten items. Among them, half were Refining Materials, and the other half were Spiritual Medicines for Alchemy — each and every one a genuine treasure! Meanwhile, Fang Yan’s ten Heavenly Grade Elixirs were all sold, fetching over fifty million Spirit Stones!
"Fang Yan, we have less than twenty million Spirit Stones left. What do you think we should do with the remaining Spirit Stones?" Li Xing asked Fang Yan while tallying the Spirit Stones obtained and already spent in the auction. Honestly, he was stunned by these Spirit Stones, knowing that there were still three sets of Heavenly Origin Treasure Boxes with Liquefied Spiritual Essence yet to be auctioned. Combined, this would certainly be a colossal sum, leaving him unsure how to spend these Spirit Stones.
"Don’t worry about it. In any auction of this sort, there will always be some mysterious items, those not listed as finale items. When the time comes, we’ll judge the situation. If there’s an item that excites us, we’ll bid for it. With our current financial power, no one can outbid us." Fang Yan said to Li Xing.
"Alright, let’s keep an eye out first. If there’s nothing of interest, we’ll find a way to spend those Spirit Stones quickly. I remember there’s a place at the entrance of the auction where we can post requests. We can use it to acquire the materials we need. Such a colossal number of Spirit Stones would certainly shock quite a few people." Li Xing nodded in agreement with Fang Yan. At present, this seemed like the best way to spend the Spirit Stones quickly.
"Sounds good, let’s see how it goes," Fang Yan agreed with Li Xing’s suggestion. He hadn’t expected that after auctioning so many items, they had only spent over thirty million Spirit Stones. The other bidders in the auction house, seeing their bids, abandoned any further bidding competition, surprising him greatly.
But soon, he realized the reason. Their strong presence in earlier auctions made others believe it was pointless to compete, so they gave up bidding, allowing him to save a significant amount of Spirit Stones.
However, he had no interest in the subsequent auction items whatsoever, so he was ready to see what came next. If nothing satisfied him, he had no problem following Li Xing’s suggestion, as he needed to collect some Spiritual Medicines or Refining Materials anyway.
Before they knew it, the auction had reached the evening. Far from losing momentum, the atmosphere in the auction hall reached its peak because everyone knew the last ten auction items were the highlights of the event! Even the Heavenly Grade Elixirs fought over earlier couldn’t compare to these last ten items.
In the VIP room, Fang Yan and Li Xing watched as the auction hall quieted down. They prepared themselves mentally to see what these final ten items were. Excluding the three remaining sets of Heavenly Origin Treasure Boxes, there should still be seven mysterious items not listed.
Under everyone’s gaze, the staff brought out the first of the top ten finale items. The item looked huge, needing a full eight people to carry it onstage, leaving everyone present stunned. No one could figure out why the item was so large.
While everyone was in a state of disbelief, the auctioneer, Wang Fu, walked over to the item with a mysterious smile, then removed the red cloth covering it, revealing the item inside. 𝐟𝗿𝐞𝚎𝚠𝐞𝚋𝕟𝐨𝚟𝐞𝕝.𝕔𝕠𝚖
"How is this possible!"
"How can this item be up for auction!"
"What’s this auction house doing, this..."
...
As everyone eyed the item, they were nearly blinded by shock. They couldn’t fathom that the auction item turned out to be a woman, and not just any woman — a stunningly beautiful, naked woman trapped in a special cage, her body beyond perfect, and her beauty unmatched. It was even apparent that this woman was the legendary White Tiger...
Not only were the others shocked, but even Fang Yan and Li Xing were dumbfounded, unable to make sense of the situation. Why in the world would they auction a woman?
"This woman isn’t simple. Look at that cage!" Fang Yan said after a mere glance, immediately noticing something peculiar about the cage binding the woman. The cage subtly shimmered with the glow of an Array, undoubtedly a Dharma Treasure. A woman restrained by a Dharma Treasure could never be ordinary!
"Indeed, there’s something off with this cage!" Upon hearing Fang Yan, Li Xing directed his gaze to the cage and, under closer inspection, also discovered the issue. As Fang Yan had said, the cage was indeed not ordinary. It was genuinely a Dharma Treasure with Restriction Arrays inscribed on it. If the auction house used such measures, the woman must be extraordinary!
As the two were discussing, Wang Fu stood onstage and began to speak with a smile, "Many may think we’re out of line for treating this woman as a lot, questioning the auction house’s integrity. Now let me reveal the woman’s true identity to you all."
Under everyone’s eyes, Wang Fu walked to the side of the cage and pointed at it, "Ladies and gentlemen, pay attention. The cage imprisoning this woman is a Dharma Treasure and not just any Dharma Treasure. It’s called the Tianyuan Forbidden Land Cage, crafted by the most famous Refining Master on the continent, Master Wang Nuo. He used Outer Heaven Meteoric Iron and dozens of rare materials to create it, inscribed with dozens of Restriction Arrays and an Annihilation Array. I can say that even an Earth Immortal Realm Peak cultivator may not be able to escape if trapped inside!"
