When the auctioneer revealed the penultimate item, everyone stared intently at it.
This is a Soul Bone that is entirely emerald green, shimmering with a green halo, as if there is emerald green liquid flowing within it. The whole piece looks like it was carved from a gemstone, and it exudes an extremely powerful aura.
Princess Jiujiu's voice rang out again.
"Distinguished guests, it is an honor to introduce the next Soul Bone to you. As we all know, a Hundred Thousand Year Soul Ring Soul Bone is the most precious treasure in the entire Douluo Continent, and even our Starlight Auction House rarely sees it."
"The Soul Bone that you see here, esteemed guests, is the highest quality Soul Bone that our Starlight Auction House has acquired in recent years. This Soul Bone is of the highest grade ice attribute, and therefore has attribute restrictions. Only ice attribute Soul Master can absorb it; other attribute Soul Master cannot absorb it, and forcibly absorbing it will even result in life-threatening situations."
"In accordance with the principles of the Starlight Auction House, it is necessary to introduce the shortcomings of this Soul Bone. First, the Soul Skill attributes of this Soul Bone are already determined. No matter which Soul Master absorbs this Soul Bone, the Soul Skill will not change. In addition, due to its extremely high age, it is impossible to absorb without a sufficiently strong physical constitution, otherwise it will cause the body to burst."
"Of course, besides that, this Soul Bone is the most exquisite Soul Bone I have ever seen. It is over 50,000 years old, and its rarity is absolutely comparable to Hundred Thousand Year Soul Bone. This is because this Soul Bone comes from the Core Circle of Extreme North and is from the Ice Jade Scorpion, Soul Beast with the title of overlord."
Princess Jiujiu explained in detail the advantages and disadvantages of this Soul Bone Soul Bone, which can be described as top-grade from any perspective.
The auction began immediately, and as expected, despite the various restrictions imposed on this ice-attribute Soul Bone, it quickly attracted countless bidders.
It should be noted that top-grade Soul Bone that are over 50,000 years old can already be considered as the inherited Soul Bone of top sects. Not only are they extremely valuable, but they can even help people break through bottlenecks.
Soon, the price skyrocketed to a terrifying 15 million Gold Soul Coin.
Just as everyone was wondering, the price suddenly surged again, with someone offering 30 million Gold Soul Coin, seemingly determined to win.
Xu Zhengyang stared at the Soul Bone Soul Bone for a long time. Although it was not suitable for him, it was very suitable for Meng Hongchen, and it could even be said that it was tailor-made for her.
" Elder Ma, take a picture of this piece of Soul Bone."
Ma Rufeng looked puzzled. " Xu Zhengyang, this Soul Bone is indeed good, but it also has many limitations. The price of 30 million Gold Soul Coin is too high, and it's not suitable for you."
Xu Zhengyang didn't waste any words and directly took out two pieces of Dragon-Patterned Black Gold from his body. Although each piece was only the size of a basketball, it weighed about 200 pounds.
The value of two pieces of Dragon-Patterned Black Gold is definitely over 30 million Gold Soul Coin, which is one of the most sought-after materials by top-tier Soul Engineer.
Ma Rufeng stared wide-eyed at the two pieces of Dragon-Patterned Black Gold.
"How is that possible? How could you have so much Dragon-Patterned Black Gold? Dragon-Patterned Black Gold is usually extremely rare and very valuable; it can even be used on Level 9 Soul Tool."
Xu Zhengyang shook his head. "Never mind all that for now, let's bid for this Soul Bone. I have other uses for it."
Xu Zhengyang was very clear about the power of this Soul Bone; its Soul Skill, Ice Explosion, had endless uses and could be called a divine skill.
Ma Rufeng gave Xu Zhengyang a deep look, then without saying a word, he put away the Dragon-Patterned Black Gold. As Level 9 Soul Engineer, he naturally knew the value of the Dragon-Patterned Black Gold.
Soon, a voice rang out in the auction hall.
Thirty-one million Gold Soul Coin!
Everyone present was shocked again. Logically speaking, the value of this Soul Bone should not exceed 15 million Gold Soul Coin. Unexpectedly, someone actually offered such a price, which was simply unimaginable.
The original bidder for 30 million Gold Soul Coin was Emperor Xu Jiawei of the Sun Moon Empire. He decided to offer such a high price because of Huo Yuhao's words, mainly to give Huo Yuhao and Shrek Academy face, and to use this Soul Bone as the final reward of the Soul Master Tournament.
It's unbelievable that someone would be so stubborn as to offer 31 million Gold Soul Coin; it's simply unimaginable.
Even Princess Jiujiu, who was in the very center of the auction house, was extremely surprised. She knew very well that it was her brother who had bid 30 million Gold Soul Coin, and she never expected that someone else would raise the price.
Just then, someone else made another bid.
Thirty-two million Gold Soul Coin!
Xu Zhengyang and Ma Rufeng exchanged a glance and nodded slightly.
Ma Rufeng instantly understood Xu Zhengyang's meaning and immediately raised the bid by another million Gold Soul Coin.
Thirty-three million Gold Soul Coin!
The entire Soul Fighting Arena fell silent, seemingly in awe of someone's extravagant spending and unwavering determination.
After a long silence, Princess Jiujiu seemed to have received instructions and understood Xu Jiawei's meaning, and finally brought down the auction hammer.
Congratulations to our distinguished guest for successfully bidding on this top-grade Soul Bone!
Xu Zhengyang smiled. Although the Sun Moon Empire wanted to curry favor with Shrek, they were ultimately reluctant to part with the 32 million Gold Soul Coin. After we seize this top-grade Soul Bone, things will get interesting. This is the Soul Bone that Huo Yuhao uses the most and is the most practical.
And then, the final, most anticipated item was finally revealed.
Princess Jiujiu's voice echoed in everyone's ears once again.
"Distinguished guests, the next item in today's auction is the grand finale."
Princess Jiujiu gestured with her right hand, and the red cloth covering the auction item was slowly lifted, revealing a wooden container on the tray. The container was surrounded by a special transparent material and inlaid with at least a hundred gems. Xu Zhengyang and the others could tell at a glance that this was a top-tier Soul Tool.
Within this Soul Tool, one can see a wisp of white gas, but this gas is condensed and does not disperse. It struggles left and right, as if trying to forcibly break through the limitations of the Soul Tool, but the wooden container emits a golden light that envelops it, preventing it from breaking through.
"Distinguished guests, as we all know, in the world of Soul Beast, after cultivating for 100,000 years, they have one choice: to continue cultivating. They must break through their bottleneck through their own strength, or their souls will be scattered. Once they successfully break through, we call them Fierce Beast."
"At the same time, there is another situation: Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast can choose to transform into human form. They can transform into our most primitive human state and live from the embryonic stage."
"And today's grand finale item is an embryo that hadn't yet formed when Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast was reborn as a human. I bet there aren't many people in the entire Douluo Continent who have ever seen such an embryo."
As Princess Jiujiu finished her introduction, everyone present gasped. This final, highly anticipated item was actually a Hundred-Thousand-Year Transformed Soul Beast Embryo, which meant that it contained a Hundred Thousand Year Soul Ring and Soul Bone, or in other words, a peerless genius. From any perspective, it was priceless.
Xu Zhengyang also stared intently at the Godsealing Altar that was suppressing the Snow Empress Embryo. Although the Godsealing Altar was also Level 9 Soul Tool, its value was far less than that of the Snow Empress Embryo.
Xu Zhengyang was perfectly aware that this Snow Empress Embryo was a trap set by the Star Luo Empire, because the Snow Empress's soul...
The ring is 700,000 years old, and no one can absorb it. This means that anyone who tries to absorb its Soul Ring will surely explode and die, unless it is the ninth Soul Ring of the Second Martial Soul of Twin Martial Souls.
As Princess Jiujiu just mentioned, if this Snow Empress Embryo is absorbed as Soul Ring, there is a certain probability of forming Second Martial Soul, which is absolutely extremely attractive to Soul Master.
The Star Luo Empire is trying to destroy the Sun Moon Empire's unparalleled genius, while also making the Sun Moon Empire pay an extremely high price in Gold Soul Coin, and even making the Sun Moon Empire the target of everyone's hatred. It can be said that it has achieved three goals at once.
From beginning to end, this was a beautifully crafted trap set by the Star Luo Empire for the Sun Moon Empire, a trap that was impossible to resist.
Both Xiao Hongchen and Meng Hongchen stared intently at the Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast Embryo. Xiao Hongchen, in particular, had eyes filled with fervor and determination, as if the treasure before him was already his.
For a peerless genius like Xiao Hongchen, the opportunity to absorb Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast Embryo and develop Twin Martial Souls would be an opportunity he absolutely could not refuse.
Not to mention that for everyone, this Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast Embryo is simply a divine artifact that can defy fate.
Xiao Hongchen murmured, "I must obtain this Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast Embryo. I must have it! Elder Ma, we must do our utmost at the auction, no matter how high the price, it's worth it."
Even Ma Rufeng nodded solemnly. " Xiao Hongchen, you are one of the strongest geniuses in our Sun Moon Empire. This Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast Embryo is absolutely worth it, even if it costs us everything."
But at that moment, Xu Zhengyang couldn't help but sigh.
"That's a bit of a pity. I'm afraid this thing isn't a treasure, but a deadly poison."
Everyone present was stunned upon hearing this. From any perspective, this Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast Embryo was priceless; how could it be a deadly poison?
Even the usually arrogant Xiao Hongchen glared angrily at this moment.
"Impossible! This is definitely not poison. With this Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast Embryo, my talent will improve again, and my strength might even surpass yours."
Xu Zhengyang didn't waste any words. Instead, he grabbed Xiao Hongchen Xiao Hongchen the neck, instantly immobilizing him.
Ma Rulong and Ma Rufeng were both taken aback, not expecting Xu Zhengyang to attack Xiao Hongchen at this moment, but they quickly regained their composure.
Xu Zhengyang's face hardened, and his right hand moved like an iron clamp.
"You look nothing like a genius. You're like a madman who's lost his mind over a treasure. Don't you have any confidence in your own strength and talent? Are you really so desperate to pursue this so-called Hundred Thousand Year Soul Ring that you've abandoned all hope of finding your own path?"
After being scolded by Xu Zhengyang, Xiao Hongchen, who was initially extremely agitated, gradually calmed down.
Clearly, everyone was aware of Xu Zhengyang's analytical skills and insight, as well as Xu Zhengyang judgment.
Seeing that Xiao Hongchen was gradually calming down, Xu Zhengyang forcefully flung him, Xiao Hongchen fell hard to the ground. However, he was not angry; instead, he laughed.
"Indeed, I was too stubborn. My talent is the strongest in the Sun Moon Empire in a thousand years, so why should I care about this so-called Second Martial Soul?"
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief when they saw that Xiao Hongchen had recovered, especially Meng Hongchen, who went to Xiao Hongchen's side and helped him up.
"Brother, how are you?"
Xiao Hongchen shook his head. "It's nothing. This beating seems to have made me more clear-headed. I'm sorry, Xu Zhengyang, I was really too confused just now."
Xu Zhengyang continued to stare intently at the Snow Empress Embryo.
" The Star Luo Empire has laid out a very clever scheme. Even I'm tempted to get involved. It's practically an unsolvable dead end. It's truly brilliant. The Star Luo Emperor certainly has guts."
Ma Rufeng looked puzzled. "This is the Starlight Auction House. This Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast Embryo can't be fake, right? How could they use this to set up a scheme?"
Xu Zhengyang smiled and said, " Elder Ma, I just have one question for you: Does the Star Luo Empire lack Level 90 Quasi-Titled Douluo?"
Everyone's expression changed, and they instantly understood Xu Zhengyang's meaning. As one of the powerful empires on the Douluo Continent, the Star Luo Empire was definitely not lacking in geniuses or Soul Master, and it definitely had its own Quasi-Titled Douluo.
Xu Zhengyang continued, "The so-called Second Martial Soul doesn't actually enhance Soul Master's cultivation talent much. Its greatest use is that after reaching the Titled Douluo level, one can absorb Soul Ring through the Second Martial Soul to rapidly increase their strength. Of course, it can also give Soul Master more Soul Skill, further enhancing their strength."
"It can be said that, compared to ordinary Titled Douluo, those with Twin Martial Souls can generally cultivate to the Super Douluo level. This is because they have greater ambition and plans, and they can resist the temptation of rapid improvement in the early stages. After reaching the Titled Douluo, they add Soul Ring of more than 50,000 years to their Second Martial Soul."
"But the Star Luo Empire is not short of Quasi-Titled Douluo, nor is it short of loyal people. So why don't they use this Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast Embryo to cultivate top experts themselves, instead of auctioning it off at the auction house? Do they really lack this little bit of money?"
"The only possibility is that they tried, failed, or perhaps they didn't even dare to try."
