Weapons Used by Dou Zun Strong

"Seven million Gold Coins."

Wu Protector let out a sinister chuckle.

The profits brought by the Ice Crystal Cold Jade were beyond words. If it fell into the hands of the Eight Great Clans, it would surely enhance their bloodlines and allow them to advance to a higher level.

If they could advance to a God-level bloodline, then no amount of money would be too much.

Han Feng shrugged. Cold light flickered in his sharp eyes. He did not want to offend that faction, but neither did he want to miss such a fine opportunity.

Caught between a rock and a hard place, Han Feng could only give up reluctantly. In this world filled with slaughter, the Dou Qi Continent was heaven for the strong and hell for the weak. One misstep could make him a target of public criticism.

As the saying went, a wise man knew when to yield. Before he had absolute confidence, he did not wish to offend the Soul Hall.

However, the Heavenly Serpent Mansion did not care about any of that and directly raised the bid. "Seven million two hundred thousand Gold Coins."

"Seven million five hundred thousand."

"Eight million!"

The two sides began competing fiercely, determined to secure the Ice Crystal Cold Jade.

Ya Fei smilingly emphasized the importance of the item, encouraging all factions to participate in this auction. Only then could Pavilion Master earn even more money.

A generous reward always attracted brave men.

Chu Yun Que, the emperor of the Chu Yun Empire, was also drawn in by the Ice Crystal Cold Jade. He immediately raised his bidding plaque and said, "Eight million five hundred thousand Gold Coins."

"What an astonishing price." Ya Fei gave a seductive smile. "Emperor Chu Yun Que has bid eight million five hundred thousand Gold Coins. Is there anyone willing to bid higher?"

"Nine million!"

Wu Protector's mouth twitched, and he nearly crushed the teacup in his hand. These fools who did not know their place actually dared to contend with the Soul Hall. He had no idea where they got such courage.

Yet he began to hesitate as well. The upcoming auction items would surely be extraordinary. If he spent a large amount of Gold Coins here, it would be difficult to obtain the items that followed.

The money had originally been kept on Blood-colored Old Ghost, but who would have thought that he would be killed outright? His Ring had also been taken by the people of the Ascending Heaven Pavilion. Now Wu Protector was short on funds as well.

Wu Protector smacked his lips. "Since you like it so much, I'll let you have it."

Killing people in the Beast Mountain Range had always worked without a hitch. If he got the chance, he could simply slaughter them all. Not only would he not need to spend a single coin, he could also obtain the Ice Crystal Cold Jade. Why not?

Besides, within the entire Ascending Heaven Pavilion, aside from Lord Li Xiao and the others, no one was a match for a Three Star Dou Zong like him. Murder and robbery would be effortless.

As though she had guessed their thoughts, Ya Fei smiled. "Everyone, private fighting is forbidden within fifty li of the Ascending Heaven Pavilion. Those who violate this rule will be executed!"

Wu Protector, who had been considering the best way to kill them, suddenly changed expression. He sharply turned to look at Ya Fei on the Crystal Stage, shock filling his heart. How could this girl possibly know what I was thinking? Could she read minds? "Nine million Gold Coins, going once!"

"Nine million Gold Coins, going twice!"

"Is anyone going to raise the bid?" Ya Fei smiled softly. "Any higher offers? For example, nine million five hundred thousand?"

Ya Fei swept her gaze over the surrounding private rooms. If no one bid again, she would bring down the hammer.

"Then, nine million Gold Coins, going three times—sold!"

"Let us congratulate the guest in Box Number Nine for purchasing the Ice Crystal Cold Jade, which can enhance one's bloodline, for nine million Gold Coins!"

A smile appeared on Ya Fei's lips. "Now, let us look at the third auction item. It is a weapon said to have once been used by a Dou Zun Strong."

At those words, everyone in the hall broke into astonished exclamations. A weapon once used by a Dou Zun Strong had to be at least Earth Rank!

If it happened to be high grade, they would strike it rich.

Ya Fei lightly clapped her hands. The Crystal Stage beneath her began shaking violently, and dazzling light burst forth, engulfing the entire Auction. Only after the light faded could they clearly see the weapon's true appearance.

A golden longsword abruptly appeared before everyone's eyes. It was four chi and three cun long, three cun wide, with a handle one chi and two cun in length. Its entire body was a clear golden color, like a longsword carved from gold ore.

A blood-red crystal was embedded in the hilt, but upon closer inspection, one would discover that it was not an ordinary ornament, but a magic core!

"It is named the Jin Gang Sword. Originally, it was an Earth Rank High Grade weapon. According to legend, it was the weapon of Jin Gang Venerable thirty thousand years ago. Due to the passage of time, the sword body was damaged and its rank fell to the initial grade. However, what surprises us most is that an eighth-tier peak magic beast's magic core is embedded in its hilt."

"Its power cannot be underestimated. Combined with one's own strength, it can enable one to challenge opponents above one's level."

Xiao Yan muttered, "An eighth-tier peak magic beast's magic core... doesn't that mean the magic core on this sword belonged to a peak Dou Zun Strong?"

"Yes." Yao Chen said, "I was fortunate enough to hear of Jin Gang Venerable's name, though that was a very long time ago."

"Jin Gang Venerable was originally an independent cultivator, but he offended several major factions while competing for resources. In the end, he fought them for three days and three nights. Relying on his own strength, he killed three Dou Zun Strong and one Half Saint. Afterward, he was grievously wounded and passed away where he sat."

Upon hearing this, Xiao Yan could not help but look shocked. He had not expected Jin Gang Venerable to be so formidable. A Half Saint was such a powerful existence; perhaps only his teacher knew just how powerful one was.

With his Dou Shi Realm, he was not qualified to glimpse experts of that level. Still, simply being able to come to the Ascending Heaven Pavilion had broadened his horizons.

The crowd whispered among themselves, asking each other about the weapon, but they all came to the same conclusion: they could not discern anything about it.

Medicine Emperor Han Feng said, "Miss Ya Fei, weapons used by Dou Zun Strong require a tremendous amount of Dou Qi to maintain with every use. I'm afraid no one below the Dou Zong Realm can use it."

"Even if we bought it, we could probably only store it away. Whether we could break through would also be a major problem, wouldn't it?"

Ya Fei smiled. "Rest assured, everyone. Pavilion Master personally adjusted this Jin Gang Sword. I guarantee on the Ascending Heaven Pavilion's reputation that the Jin Gang Sword requires very little Dou Qi. One only needs to reach the Dou Wang Realm to use it."

The entire hall erupted in an uproar.

In that case, even a Dou Wang could wield a weapon once used by a Dou Zun Strong. Wouldn't that let them directly contend with a Dou Huang?

Han Feng now had his answer. The Ascending Heaven Pavilion truly lived up to its name. The items it auctioned were all so precious. Perhaps nowhere else under heaven could auction such things.

Even in the Central Continent, there might not be anyone capable of producing a weapon once used by a Dou Zun Strong. Besides, this sword had originally been worth Earth Rank High Grade!
