Heaven Dou Auction, Wishful Hundred-Treasure Satchel!

"Kalman!"

"I'm considered one of Spirit Hall's old hands too!"

"The reason we're resigning this time is actually for Xiao Mu. We're planning to move the whole family to Heaven Dou City!"

"Azurewood Town is simply too small!"

"The nearest junior Soul Master academy is over a hundred kilometers away, and it isn't easy to get into either!"

"For our son's future, we have no choice. We can't hold the child back, can we?"

Xia Feng spoke, producing his shield.

"I see!"

"By the way, I forgot to ask. What exactly are Xiao Mu's martial soul and innate soul power like?"

Kalman nodded and asked again.

"His innate soul power is rank six, and his martial soul is the mutated Light-Hiding Sword. He inherited his mother's martial soul."

Xia Feng answered brightly.

"A mutated martial soul, the Light-Hiding Sword!"

"Rank-six innate soul power?"

"No wonder you two are putting so much thought into this!"

Kalman nodded. Rank-six soul power was neither high nor low, but in a small place, it could still be considered genius-level talent.

If he cultivated diligently, becoming a Soul Emperor in the future was practically guaranteed. With a stroke of fortune, he might even become a Soul Sage!

"Very well!"

"I'll approve the paperwork right away."

"Once Xiao Mu graduates, you can come find me. You'll always be welcome here."

Kalman saw his two old friends out the gate. Before they left, he did not forget to reassure them.

"Thank you, Bishop Kalman!"

The two bade farewell to their old friend and set out on their journey.

Heaven Dou Royal City, Heaven Dou Auction venue!

"Honored guests!"

"Next, allow me to introduce today's first grand finale lot— a 2,300-year One-Horned Azure-Scaled Python torso bone!"

"This soulbone came from the mutated soul beast, the One-Horned Azure-Scaled Python, and contains a trace of true dragon bloodline."

"Furthermore, among the six types of soulbones, this is the rarest kind: a torso bone. Its rarity is no less than that of an ordinary ten-thousand-year soulbone. After appraisal, its starting bid has been set at five million gold soul coins!"

"Esteemed guests, don't miss out!"

As the host finished speaking, a soulbone was brought onto the auction stage, drawing a wave of cheers.

"A 2,300-year torso bone!"

At the auction, Dugu Bo stared at the soulbone on the stage. He was deeply tempted, but his feelings were complicated.

"What is it?"

"Father?"

Seeing his father caught in a dilemma, Dugu Xin was rather puzzled and asked again.

"It's nothing!"

"This soulbone's age is somewhat too low. I'm considering whether I should buy it!"

After thinking for a moment, Dugu Bo spoke to his son.

"A 2,300-year torso bone from the mutated Soul Master One-Horned Azure-Scaled Python. This soulbone suits me very well, and it even contains a trace of dragon bloodline."

Dugu Xin was tempted as well. After all, he still did not possess a single soulbone!

"Dragon bloodline?"

"The Jade-Phosphorus Snake also has a trace of dragon bloodline. If Xin'er absorbs this soulbone and his martial soul evolves, perhaps the tragedy can be avoided!"

Dugu Bo's wife had suffered from the Jade-Phosphorus Snake's poison during childbirth and lost her life at a young age.

It had become an ache in Dugu Bo's heart!

Watching his only son grow older day by day, Dugu Bo was deeply anxious. He did not want to outlive his child.

"I've decided. I'll buy this soulbone!"

For his son's future and survival, Dugu Bo silently resolved to obtain it.

"The starting bid is actually as high as five million?"

Soulbones really are priceless in this era. Fortunately, this is only a thousand-year soulbone!

If it were a ten-thousand-year soulbone, the consequences would be unimaginable!

Xia Mu pondered inwardly as he watched.

Hundred-year and thousand-year soulbones were quite common, but ten-thousand-year soulbones were different. They were known as treasures of blood rivers and could trigger a large-scale war.

That alone showed their value.

The upper three sects and lower four sects had stood for centuries and millennia because of the ten-thousand-year soulbones within their sects.

Those were the foundations of their sects. The Clear Sky Sect possessed a set of inherited soulbones, every piece over fifty thousand years old—truly top-grade treasures.

Spirit Hall's inherited soulbones were even more outrageous!

The Qian Clan's six inherited Angel God Armor Soulbones were each 99,999 years old. Once combined into a divine set, they could advance to one hundred thousand years.

For ordinary sects and noble families, gathering a full set of thousand-year soulbones was already an impressive foundation.

"Six million!"

"Seven million!"

"..."

"Ten million!"

"Fifteen million!"

"Twenty million!"

The price soared all the way to twenty-one million. Competition for this soulbone was exceptionally fierce.

"Twenty-two million!"

Dugu Bo raised his hand. To acquire this soulbone, he had nearly emptied all the wealth he carried.

At present, Dugu Bo was only a high-level Soul Emperor, while his son, Dugu Xin, had only turned eighteen a few months ago.

Dugu Xin possessed rank-seven innate soul power and was now a rank-twenty-nine Grand Soul Master, only one rank of soul power away from becoming a three-ring Soul Elder.

Perhaps this soulbone would be his opportunity!

"Twenty-two million!"

"Once!"

"Twice!"

"Three times!"

"Congratulations to this honored guest for winning this soulbone!"

"The next grand finale treasure is a storage soul tool. This item is extremely special, as it has ten cubic meters of internal space and can store living creatures!"

"This soul tool is—the Wishful Hundred-Treasure Satchel. Following appraisal, its starting price is one million!"

"Each bid increase must be no less than five thousand gold soul coins!"

"Esteemed guests, don't miss out!"

As the words fell, the venue erupted again. This soul tool was simply too special.

"A storage soul tool with only ten cubic meters of space, and you dare sell it for one million gold soul coins!"

"It can store living creatures, sure, but isn't that price too outrageous? Isn't this just ripping people off?"

The crowd began discussing it all at once.

Although soul tools on the market were rare and expensive, a storage ring with the same amount of storage space generally cost no more than one hundred thousand gold soul coins!

Because it could store living creatures, this storage soul tool had instantly increased in value tenfold.

No wonder everyone else was unhappy!

After all, no one's gold soul coins came blowing in on the wind. Save where one should save and spend where one should spend—who wanted to be a sucker?

"One million and ten thousand gold soul coins!"

Xia Mu raised his placard. He had taken a liking to this storage soul tool. This was the Wishful Hundred-Treasure Satchel!

Not only could it hold people, it could also store immortal herbs.

This item had originally been part of Dugu Bo's collection, but after bidding on the soulbone, Dugu Bo was short on funds and chose not to join this battle!

"Congratulations to this honored guest!"

"You have won the Wishful Hundred-Treasure Satchel!"

The hammer fell, and the matter was settled.

During the following auction, Xia Mu also purchased five pieces of ten-thousand-year whale glue, spending one hundred thousand gold soul coins.

One piece of whale glue was as old as eighty thousand years. Its starting price was thirty thousand gold soul coins, and after fierce bidding, Xia Mu ultimately bought this exceptionally high-grade whale glue for fifty thousand gold soul coins!

(In Soul Land 2, thousand-year whale glue sold for several thousand gold soul coins, while ten-thousand-year whale glue would cost no more than one hundred thousand!)
