The arrival of these people elevated the auction to a very high level, clearly indicating that they had been invited beforehand; otherwise, it wouldn't have been so lively.
Meanwhile, Li Dao followed the witch into the room and was astonished by the magnificent, ornate interior.
Such luxurious decorations are even more extravagant than those in the Stone Emperor's residence.
Upon entering the hall, one is greeted by a golden skeleton, ten zhang tall and twenty or thirty zhang long, with runes flowing around it, shimmering with a fierce aura.
This was the complete remains of a Yazi, with even the original talisman bones intact, which amazed Li Dao.
It is said that Ya Zi is vengeful and was a notorious figure in ancient times, whom no one dared to provoke. Yet this auction house is exhibiting the remains of a Ya Zi, which speaks volumes about the power behind it.
The remains of the Yazi beast deterred many petty thieves, preventing them from causing further trouble.
Upon entering the hall, one finds a bustling crowd, filled with powerful auras. Men and women, young and old, are all present, and none of them are ordinary.
However, as soon as the two witches arrived, those guys immediately made way for them, their eyes filled with admiration and jealousy.
"It's the Celestial Fox Fairy, she's truly incredibly beautiful!"
"The man next to her is a bit of an eyesore, but to gain the favor of the Celestial Fox Fairy, his strength must be extraordinary."
"Looks like there are a lot of good items at this auction!"
Li Dao also sensed the envious gazes cast from all around him, but his expression remained calm as he followed the witch to a VIP room on the second floor.
With a sweep of his divine sense, he sensed that there were already people in both private rooms, and all of them were quite powerful.
He withdrew his divine sense after only a slight perception, not wanting to cause any more trouble as there were many powerful people in this area.
As soon as I sat down next to the witch, I heard her say:
"I've heard there are many good items at this auction. If you see anything you like, don't hesitate to ask me for it."
Seeing the captivating glint in her beautiful eyes, Li Dao remained composed and said:
"Thank you for your kindness, fairy. It's just a small trinket, I can afford it."
Seeing that Li Dao was unmoved by either soft or hard tactics, the witch showed no outward expression, but inwardly she thought to herself:
"When we got to know this guy, how come I didn't realize he was such a blockhead? He doesn't understand anything about romance or poetry."
Chapter 192 Bone Gu Auction and the Indestructible Golden Body
Just as the witch was complaining in her heart, quite a few cultivators had already entered the auction house.
Those who can enter and exit are all scions of prestigious families and people of extraordinary status.
With a mere sweep of his divine sense, Li Dao detected numerous pure-blooded beings and Inscription Realm cultivators in the hall.
He also sensed a familiar aura and looked in the direction he perceived it.
Then they saw a boy dressed in animal skins, hiding in the crowd.
"Shi Hao? It seems your cultivation has improved quite a bit since I last saw him."
Shi Hao, who was talking to the waiter about entering the VIP room, was unaware of anything. This was one of the advantages of the VIP room: it allowed him to conceal his presence.
Li Dao didn't disturb them, planning to find them later.
After chatting and laughing with the witch for a while, the auction soon began.
An old man and a beautiful woman slowly walked up to the high platform in the hall, with several servants quietly carrying trays behind them.
The items to be auctioned were placed under the tray, but the cloth covering them served to conceal divine senses, making them impossible to see through.
The old man felt the divine thoughts surging in from all directions, but he didn't say much, and his smile remained unchanged.
"Thank you all for coming and supporting us..."
After giving a brief explanation, the woman stepped forward gracefully, her delicate, willow-like figure immediately attracting everyone's attention.
The witch glanced at Li Dao with interest, and then saw that he was looking over as well.
Is it pretty?
Li Daoping nodded calmly: "She's quite attractive. The auction house has really put in the effort."
The witch glanced at him speechlessly upon hearing this, then said nothing more and turned her gaze back to the high platform.
"The auction rules will not be repeated here. The highest bidder wins. Next up is our first item."
As the silk cloth on the tray was lifted, a piece of bone, as clear as jade and shimmering with a warm luster, appeared before everyone's eyes.
"After examination, it was determined that this is a piece of celestial bone, extremely hard, and cannot be damaged in the slightest by any means."
As soon as the woman spoke, she immediately attracted the curiosity of many people, and many exclaimed in surprise.
"What! A Heavenly Bone?" Everyone couldn't help but stir, their eyes burning as they looked at the precious bone, their breathing becoming rapid.
The first item up for auction immediately piqued everyone's curiosity, with everyone eagerly eyeing the precious bone.
"The first item is already so amazing, it seems the rest won't be any less impressive!"
When Li Dao saw the precious bone, he became quite interested. He couldn't damage it no matter what he did. Could it be a fragment of a celestial beast's precious bone?
He had already made up his mind to get his hands on it, and the old man on the stage explained why he had chosen it as the first item to be auctioned.
"Aside from being extremely hard, this precious bone has no runes or markings, only some blurry lines."
Those in the VIP room were allowed to touch it beforehand. When the precious bone came into his hands, he also sensed its extraordinary nature, and Tianhuang in particular trembled slightly.
A glint of light flashed in his eyes, and he had already made a decision in his mind. During the bidding auction, he directly offered a very high price.
"A piece of sea blue marrow!"
Everyone fell silent. The price of a piece of aquamarine marrow was no less than that of a celestial bone.
Even the alluring woman on stage was momentarily stunned, then overjoyed.
As if afraid that Li Dao would regret it, they immediately brought down the hammer and handed the precious bone to Li Dao.
Li Dao didn't say much after seeing this; he had obtained many precious items from the merfolk.
What might be considered precious treasures in the North Sea become several times more valuable in the Great Wilderness, as rarity increases value.
So I wasn't too heartbroken; I still had quite a few of these things in my storage bag.
Shi Hao was a little unhappy to see the precious bone being taken by someone else, but he quickly adjusted his mood.
The witch beside Li Dao was somewhat surprised to see him take out a very rare piece of aquamarine marrow, but she didn't say anything.
After obtaining the precious bone, Li Dao was in a good mood. However, none of the things that appeared afterward suited his taste, and without his participation, the scene was quite lively.
"One thousand fine jades!"
"Five thousand fine jades!"
"Ten thousand fine jades once, ten thousand fine jades three times! Deal!"
"..."
After Li Dao obtained the fragment, he heard Tianhuang's voice:
"This thing has an extraordinary origin; it contains a great law that may be useful to you in the future."
Li Dao nodded and asked Tianhuang if it would be of any help to him.
"This item is extraordinary and indeed useful to me, but..."
Before it could finish speaking, Li Dao interrupted it:
"Since it's beneficial to you, you can use it. As for the great method, you'll encounter it when the time is right."
"The future is too far away, who can say for sure?"
His biggest trump card right now is Tianhuang. The stronger the power it can unleash, the more secure his safety will be.
After the precious bone was sent into the Refining God Furnace, the auction continued. The Blood Demon Ruler was won by Hun Tianhou, while the Xuan Turtle Treasure Technique was won by Shi Hao.
The witch beside him also acquired a precious hairpin that could emit a dazzling five-colored light to form a protective shield, capable of blocking a Venerable's attack.
It's just a disposable item; only someone as wealthy and powerful as a witch would buy it.
"What are you daydreaming about? There are plenty of good things here. Don't cry if they're all bought by others." The witch's teasing words rang in my ears.
Li Dao also turned his attention back to the stage, where a Heavenly Demon Umbrella was being auctioned. It was a rare treasure among the weapons of kings and nobles, and was being fought over by several old kings.
The younger generation watched quietly, not participating in the fight. Li Dao also did not participate; for him, a weapon was nothing, as the treasure he had at this moment was sufficient.
Whether it's the Refining God Furnace that's currently fusing with the Creation Cauldron in preparation for further advancement, the Trident of the Sea God, or the Life-Devouring Spear, they are all rare treasures and more than enough.
After several rounds of intense bidding, something finally caught his attention.
It was a small black stone, no bigger than the palm of your hand. It was made of some unknown material, and its surface was dull and lacked any special qualities.
However, Li Dao knew that it was the legendary indestructible golden body, a treasure passed down from the ancient times.
Once combined with the physical body, one's combat power can instantly soar, as if possessing an indestructible golden body, which is truly terrifying.
Even in the ancient times, such treasures were extremely rare, each one a masterpiece, simply because the required skills were too high and the materials too precious.
Although the indestructible golden body on the stage is severely damaged, it is possible to repair it.
The old man on the stage slowly began to explain, only saying that it was an ordinary battle puppet, and the audience below did not pay much attention.
Upon hearing that bidding was allowed, Li Dao spoke without hesitation:
"A piece of sea blue marrow!"
Many cultivators who were originally planning to try and snag a bargain turned up their heads and gave each other strange looks when they heard the price of the VIP room.
Upon hearing this, Shi Hao, who was planning to slowly raise the price and acquire the treasure unnoticed, froze.
"Little Tower, it seems the secret of this treasure has been discovered by others. Should we continue?"
On Shi Hao's hair, the small pagoda, as white as mutton fat jade, shimmered with divine light and spoke softly:
"It can help you unleash king-level combat power, so you must get your hands on it."
"However, there's no rush. You know the person who made the move, so you can exchange it with them privately. Right now, it's more prudent to get that thing into our own hands as soon as possible."
Although Shi Hao had some doubts after hearing Xiao Ta's words, he did not raise the price again.
However, he secretly thought to himself:
"We must get our hands on this treasure. With it, we'll be more confident in our next move!"
