Black Gold Beast Egg

"An ancient artifact, a Seal Condensation Method?"

At those words, Lin Langtian's eyes lit up, and a delighted expression appeared on his face.

Ever since he had missed out on Heavy Prison Peak in the Clan Treasury because he had not mastered Essence Energy, he had given considerable thought to cultivating spiritual power and becoming a Talisman Master.

On Tianxuan Continent, the path of Spiritual Power Cultivation was no weaker than Yuan Power cultivation.

Some powerful Talisman Masters could move mountains and part seas, and even kill without leaving a trace.

However, cultivating spiritual power was no easier than cultivating Yuan Power. Thus, aside from Talisman Masters, there were few powerful martial artists on the continent who cultivated spiritual power alongside Yuan Power.

In Lin Langtian's recollection, in the Original Timeline, it seemed that only Lin Dong, the chosen son of fate, had achieved outstanding accomplishments in both.

However, Lin Langtian felt that after forming a Bloodline Link with Spirit Aunt, his talent and comprehension had improved considerably. Cultivating spiritual power alongside Yuan Power would not be a problem.

The Lin Clan did possess some methods for cultivating spiritual power, but Seal Condensation Methods were exceedingly rare and terribly low-grade. He did not think much of them.

Since this Mysterious Copper Piece was an ancient artifact, the Seal Condensation Method recorded within it was surely extraordinary.

Although the Imperial Family could not decipher the contents recorded on this Mysterious Copper Piece, that did not mean Lin Langtian could not.

As Lin Langtian pondered, the so-called Mysterious Copper Piece had evidently stirred up a wave of hushed discussion throughout the Auction House.

After all, ancient artifacts were like objects veiled in mystery to people of the present day, arousing an intense desire to explore them.

After Prince Mo Tianxing called out a starting bid of fifty thousand Pure Yuan Pills, bids soon followed.

"Fifty-one thousand Pure Yuan Pills!"

The whispers in the hall did not last long before someone made a tentative bid, clearly hoping to try their luck.

Fifty thousand Pure Yuan Pills was no small sum, but quite a few people present could afford it.

"Fifty-three thousand!"

"Fifty-five thousand!"

"."

Once someone took the lead, others immediately followed suit. However, the increases were not particularly high. Clearly, everyone was somewhat hesitant about this Mysterious Copper Piece, whose actual use remained unclear.

Amid the rising cries of bids, the price of the Mysterious Copper Piece gradually rose to around sixty thousand Pure Yuan Pills. After that, the bidders became much more cautious.

"Seventy thousand Pure Yuan Pills."

After the bidding cries had grown sparser, a calm, faint voice suddenly rang out in the hall, instantly stifling those who had intended to compete for the item.

Following the voice with their gazes, they saw that the bidder was none other than Lin Langtian, seated at the very front.

Seeing that Lin Langtian had made a move, many people were stunned. He had just spent over two hundred thousand Pure Yuan Pills to purchase a Breakthrough Flower, and now he was lavishly spending another seventy thousand Pure Yuan Pills on this Mysterious Copper Piece of uncertain value. He truly was a wealthy young master.

Moreover, in their impressions, Lin Langtian was a martial arts genius. Why was he interested in a Seal Condensation Method involving spiritual power cultivation?

Could it be that he thought he had too much energy and wanted to become a Talisman Master as well?

At that thought, many people shook their heads.

Everyone present was among the Great Yan Empire's top geniuses. At one point or another, they had all wanted to become dual-cultivation martial artists who cultivated both Yuan Power and spiritual power.

Unfortunately, once they truly stepped onto the path of cultivation, they discovered just how difficult it was. Not only could they not balance Yuan Power and spiritual power, but it would also severely hinder their cultivation, leaving them with nothing accomplished.

Still, they had no intention of warning him. Instead, they secretly felt a trace of schadenfreude.

If Lin Langtian truly cultivated spiritual power alongside Yuan Power, they would be more than happy.

Would that not mean that in the Seed Selection a few years from now, they would have one formidable competitor fewer?

Even Ling Qingzhu, seated not far from Lin Langtian, had a flash of surprise in her Beautiful Eyes. Cultivating both Yuan Power and spiritual power was extremely rare even within the Super Sects.

However, just as everyone thought Lin Langtian would smoothly obtain the item, an unexpected voice suddenly cut in.

"Eighty thousand Pure Yuan Pills."

That voice immediately caused a wave of surprise in the hall. Curious gazes followed it, and they saw the man in black—Huangpu Ying.

The increased bid also startled Lin Langtian for a moment. But upon seeing that it was Huangpu Ying, he could not help but curse inwardly.

Damn Simp. I hate Simps!

Clearly, Huangpu Ying had joined the bidding because of Ling Qingzhu's special attention toward Lin Langtian earlier.

Although Lin Langtian despised Huangpu Ying's actions inwardly, he merely said flatly, "One hundred thousand."

This sudden increase of twenty thousand made many people visibly moved, before they secretly grew envious.

Now that was true wealth. He tossed out one hundred thousand Pure Yuan Pills without even blinking, and more importantly, he was using such an enormous sum to bid for a Mysterious Copper Piece whose value had yet to be determined.

After this auction, the reputation of Young Master Lin Langtian's extravagant wealth would surely spread throughout the entire Imperial Capital. The girls at the Spring Courtyard would probably be dying to throw themselves at him.

Under Lin Langtian's bid, even Huangpu Ying's face twitched slightly.

Although he was the Huangpu Clan's number one genius, his status within the clan was clearly not as high as Lin Langtian's within the Lin Clan. Those eighty thousand Pure Yuan Pills were nearly half of his private fortune.

Furthermore, judging by Lin Langtian's manner, he did not seem inclined to stop. Huangpu Ying would most likely be unable to outbid him.

Besides, this Mysterious Copper Piece held little value for him. Huangpu Ying had only acted out of jealousy.

Now that he had made Lin Langtian spend an extra thirty thousand Pure Yuan Pills, he was already extremely satisfied.

If he kept bidding and Lin Langtian suddenly backed out, he would truly have nowhere to cry.

At the thought of this, Huangpu Ying's expression flickered uncertainly, and in the end, he chose not to continue raising the bid.

On the auction stage, Prince Mo Tianxing felt a slight sense of regret when he saw this.

Both Lin Langtian and Huangpu Ying were at the age of youthful pride and vigor. If they had fought over it, they would surely have brought considerable profit to this auction.

However, he also understood when to stop. An ancient copper piece that could not be deciphered was already worth its price at one hundred thousand Pure Yuan Pills.

Thus, after calling out a few more times, Mo Tianxing brought down the hammer and finalized the transaction.

After successfully auctioning off the Mysterious Copper Piece at a fine price, many more valuable items were brought onto the stage.

Among them, Lin Langtian even saw a half-step Earth-grade Spirit Treasure and Creation Martial Arts. Clearly, the Imperial Family had brought out quite a few good items for this auction.

However, these things held little attraction for Lin Langtian, so he remained silent throughout the following bids.

Just as he thought the auction would end like this, Prince Mo Tianxing suddenly brought out an egg.

A mysterious beast egg about the size of a human head, its entire shell covered in profound black-gold patterns.

There would be another chapter at noon.
