119: Chapter 119 The Record of Creations by the Heavenly Craftsmen
As the heir to a top-tier conglomerate, he had only one purpose for coming to the black market today: To spend money! To buy top-quality equipment!
"Next, we will auction off the first heavyweight item!"
The auctioneer on stage suddenly lifted the red cloth.
A suit of armor, entirely dark gold and radiating violent blood energy fluctuations, appeared before everyone.
"War-General Level peak armor—Mad Lion!"
"Starting bid, five billion!"
As soon as the words fell, Wang Teng's lazy voice immediately came from the second-floor box.
"Ten billion."
Doubling it directly! The entire venue went quiet for a moment.
Then, a few competitive boxes began to bid.
"Twelve billion!"
"Fifteen billion!"
Wang Teng sneered and put down his wine glass.
"Twenty billion."
Three light words instantly crushed all competitors.
After all, current armor ratings are divided into War-General Level, Army-Breaking Level, Sky-Dome Level, Nation-Guardian Rank, and the legendary Mythical Rank.
War-General Level, while precious, is merely the starting threshold in this high-end armor system.
The grade isn't considered high.
Spending a sky-high price of twenty billion to buy a set of War-General Level equipment is a severe overpayment. For a rational martial artist, with this huge sum, it is obviously more cost-effective to buy top-tier pills and heaven-sent treasures to pile up blood energy and improve their own hard strength.
Except for a wealthy young master from a great family like Wang Teng, who only values superficial equipment, naturally, no one is willing to continue being this sucker.
"Twenty billion, sold!"
Inside the Heaven No. 1 box.
Su Yu sat in front of the one-way glass, looking at the War-General Level armor that had been auctioned for the sky-high price of twenty billion.
A hint of contemplation flashed in his deep eyes.
War-General Level armor.
In the military's ratings, it is merely the lowest tier.
It can actually sell for twenty billion?
You have to know.
Back at Weiming Lake, what Vice Principal Nie Changkong casually threw to him was Sky-Dome Level armor!
It was several major grades higher than War-General Level!
How much would that be worth? Three hundred billion? Or five hundred billion?
And the Nation-Guardian Rank armor that Huo Zhenshan promised him, as well as that ethereal God-level mecha in the future.
What kind of terrifying astronomical figure would that be?
No wonder.
No wonder when he proposed to cash out the Nation-Guardian Rank armor, the looks Huo Zhenshan and Vice Principal Nie Changkong gave him were like they were looking at a peerless idiot.
Su Yu touched his chin.
He did not participate in the armor auction.
Because there was no need.
With his current terrifying explosive power of nine million Dark Gold Divine Blood, War-General Level armor couldn't even withstand a trace of the aftermath generated during his battles.
Buying it would be a pure waste of money.
The auction continued.
Various heaven-sent treasures and Emperor-grade weapons took turns.
The price kept going up.
Suddenly.
The auctioneer brought up an exquisite tray.
Inside the tray lay an old, yellowed ancient book.
"Everyone!"
"The next item is a bit special."
The auctioneer cleared his throat.
"This is a Heaven-grade high-rank forging technique!"
"Records of Celestial Craftsmanship!"
"Starting bid, three million dragon coins!"
Once these words were spoken, the whole venue only caused a very short commotion, and then it quickly fell into a cold silence.
A deathly silence.
For the label "Heaven-grade high-rank", everyone was naturally envious. But everyone present was shrewd; who didn't know that forging techniques are a deceptive pit?
It is recognized common knowledge in the martial arts world.
The path of forging is extremely profound and obscure.
To get started, one needs to spend a massive amount of time grinding away at materials science, energy circuits, and complex formation inscriptions.
For high-level martial artists, time is life, and their own martial arts realm is the foundation! If they are not professional blacksmiths, for ordinary martial artists to learn this stuff would absolutely severely drag down the progress of blood energy cultivation; it is simply putting the cart before the horse.
Who would waste their precious cultivation time just to forge iron?
Therefore, the status of this Heaven-grade high-rank forging technique seemed extremely awkward.
Tasteless to eat, but a pity to discard.
"Three point five million."
In the hall, an old voice tentatively shouted.
It seemed like a low-level blacksmith wanted to pick up a bargain.
Just as the auctioneer was about to drop the hammer.
Inside the Heaven No. 1 box.
Su Yu's eyes instantly lit up.
Wasting time?
Obscure and difficult to understand?
That applies to ordinary people!
For himself, who possesses the Krypton Gold System, as long as he has money, even the most obscure cultivation technique can be deduced to Great Perfection in an instant!
The cost of mechas is so terrifying.
If he could use Krypton Gold to get this Heaven-grade forging technique to Great Perfection.
In the future, he could forge iron himself and build his own mechas!
Wouldn't that save countless middleman price differences?!
He could even reverse-sell equipment to print money?!
"Nine million."
Su Yu pressed the loudspeaker, and his voice calmly reported a number.
The old man in the hall who made the bid sighed and gave up on the auction.
Nine million to buy a forging technique that delays cultivation is something only those bored power brokers on the second floor would do.
"Nine million, sold!"
Su Yu leaned on the sofa, the corners of his mouth hooked into a satisfied arc.
Easily secured.
Take it back and take a look.
If he could learn it, this nine million investment would definitely bring a ten-thousand-fold return in the future.
The auction gradually drew to a close.
The atmosphere was also pushed to the highest climax.
"Distinguished guests!"
The auctioneer's voice suddenly rose by an octave.
"The next item is the finale of tonight!"
"Two items, bundled for auction!"
Swish!
The red cloth was lifted.
A lotus flower emitting a gloomy purple fluorescence, and a simple jade slip, lay quietly on the display stand.
"Three-hundred-year-old, top-quality nine nether soul-nourishing lotus!"
"Plus!"
"Heaven-grade high-rank, mental-type attack technique, 'Formless Calamity Blade'!!!"
Boom!!!
The entire auction venue exploded in an instant!
Everyone stood up abruptly.
Countless hot, greedy, and even crazy gazes stared fixedly at the two things on the display stand.
Mental-type heaven-sent treasures!
Mental-type Heaven-grade techniques!
Adding these two things together is simply a peerless divine medicine tailored for those high-level martial artists stuck in mental power bottlenecks!
The body and mind complement each other.
Once mental power breaks through, the martial arts realm will inevitably usher in a qualitative leap!
"Wait!"
Suddenly.
In the hall, an old man shrouded in a black robe let out an exclamation.
"'Formless Calamity Blade'?!"
"Isn't that the secret non-transferable technique of the Kyoto Chen family?!"
"How could it appear at the black market auction?!"
"Did the Chen family go bankrupt? Or were they wiped out?!"
Once this bombshell was thrown.
The whole venue fell into a brief dead silence again.
Then.
A more frantic uproar erupted!
The Chen family's secret non-transferable technique!
If they bought it back, not only could they improve their strength, but they could also take the opportunity to see through the Chen family's trump cards!
This is simply a priceless treasure!
"Starting bid!"
The auctioneer took a deep breath and slammed the wooden hammer down heavily.
"One hundred billion dragon coins!"
"Each increment must not be less than ten billion!"
"Start!!!"
As soon as the words fell, the bidding sounds were like a tsunami, instantly sweeping through the entire auction venue.
"One hundred fifty billion!"
"Two hundred billion!"
"Three hundred billion!"
The price soared crazily at a scalp-numbing speed.
There was no need for the auctioneer to build up the atmosphere.
These red-eyed tycoons directly treated the price as numbers and smashed them out.
On the second floor, Earth No. 3 box.
Wang Teng stood up abruptly and crushed the wine glass in his hand.
Crimson wine flowed down his fingers.
His eyes were completely red.
"Formless Calamity Blade"! nine nether soul-nourishing lotus!
If he could bring these two things back to the family, it would definitely be a great contribution!
"Five hundred billion!"
Wang Teng roared.
"Six hundred billion!"
Another box did not show weakness.
"Eight hundred billion!"
"One hundred billion!"
Short minutes of time.
The price directly broke through the one hundred billion mark!
And the momentum did not decrease at all!
"One hundred thirty billion!"
Wang Teng gritted his teeth and shouted this number.
His forehead was already covered in cold sweat.
He regretted it!
Extremely regretted it!
If he had known that the finale item was a treasure of this level.
He shouldn't have spent twenty billion to buy that crappy War-General Level armor just now!
