"Four hundred sixty three spirit stones!" The hot blooded youth roared once more for one last attempt to acquire the Origin Core, wishing that he would be the one to get it in the end. He really wanted to get it to beat his senior and seize his junior.
"Six hundred ninety nine spirit stones!" The handsome noble who was evidently a playboy was still able to hold on despite the quick increase of the price each minute that passes by.
....
"Seven hundred spirit stones." A purple cloaked person placed a bid.
....
"Nine hundred eighty one sprirt stones!!" Arman Heinze was surprisingly the one who placed a bid for this. He was still at the Palace Establishment Stage and defense was one of his weak points and by getting this Origin Core will help him overcome this weaknes.
"One thousand two hundred twenty seven." It was the first elder of a Top 20 power called Domineering Tamers School who raised the price for this.
The auction continued for thirty minutes until the price was raised to one thousand seven hundred forty four sport stones and was succesfully seized! The person who got it was Vice Head Garet of the Battlebeast School which was a part of the Top 10 powers.
"Sold to Vice Head Garet!" Dylan announced with a smile.
"Hahaha thank you for letting me win." Vice Head Garet politely stated. He was in a really good mood for winning the item he wanted for his student.
\'With this, my eldest student will have an even greater chance to place top 5 in the City-wide Competition two months from now!\' He laughed inwardly.
For the nineteenth and twentieth item were items that were cream of the crop treasures in the Mid Earth Rank.
The nineteenth item, Tantalizing Illusory Flower which could make the surrounding Origin Foundation Experts or Beasts fall into an illusion, was seized by Okemos Charon at the price four hundred fifty spirit stones while the twentieth treasure, Demon Water Lily which could grow into a peak level Origin Foundation Monster if fed and nurtured well, was seized by the Enchanted Gardens leader, Anastasia Spring.
"We have finally entered the final phase of the auction! As a teaser, I would like to tell you that the following items are all High Earth Rank Treasures!" Dylan declared with a joyous expression.
"REALLY?!" The crowd was even more pumped up because of this declaration.
Though a lot of them knew in their hearts that they would not be able acquire such treasures with the Top 20 strongest and wealthiest sects around, they still stayed to just see glimpses of such treasures.
"Sir, it seems like your speculations were right!" Sheldon told Azelmek
"It is indeed so." Azelmek said solemnly.
"Is everything ready?" The Grand Elder of the Alchemy academy asked the elder accompanying him and Asiel.
"The extra 8,000 spirit stones you ordered is already here, sir." The elder quickly replied.
"Good." The Grand Elder nodded.
"Romero, how much spirit stones do you have right now?" Dorin Thunder asked.
"I only brought bout 3000 spirit stones. Why?" Romero Thunder answered.
"The clan head just instructed me to put everything in the line for the 24th and the final item. I too have 3000 with me. With the amount that was given to us, all in all, we have 14,000 spirit stones." Dorin explained.
"This is where the true battle begins!" This was the thought of the members Top 20 powers who were participating in the auction.
Dylan started: " The first treasure of the final ten items I have prepared is named the Goldeneye Fruit. The fruit holds the ability to grant a person a mind\'s eye or as others would call it the golden eye. This eye could nourish the person\'s mental strength to the extent that any Rank 7 Mystical Magnate\'s illusion could no longer harm him! Additionally, it also gives enhanced sight and night vision to the user which increases the mobility a person can have during night time. The lowest price will be 70 spirit stones!"
"What a valuable treasure! It must be mine! Seventy spirit stones!" An aspiring Rank 2 Mystical Magnate said.
"Seventy five stones! I must have it!" A female cultivator gritted her teeth and shouted a price.
"Eighty spirit stones! With that, our hunting prospects would skyrocket!" A workaholic frizzy haired hunter placed another bid.
"Eighty one spirit stones." A purple cloaked person spoke up.
"Six hundred fifty spirit stones!" Isaac Fleetwood stated the final bid.
"Sold!" Dylan declared.
Dylan moved on to the next item: " The second item is an item called Dragon Scaled Vines. This vine is something similar to the Water Demon Lily which is a nurturable High Earth Rank Herb Creature but unlike the Water Demon Lily, it is classified as a symbiotic Herb Creature. It could assist the user with battles using it\'s 4 vines which could be used for attacking and defending. It could grow to an entity whose strength is equal to a Pinnacle Palace Establishement expert! The starting bid would be 120 spirit stones!"
"One hundred twenty spirit stones! My fighting capabilities will significantly increase with it!" A Herbal Specialist from a Top 200 power was the first to bid.
"One hundred thirty spirit stones!" Another Herbal Specialist called out for a bid with a similiar goal as the prior one.
"One hundred thirty one spirit stones." A black cloaked person raised the price.
"One hundred thirty eight spirit stones!" A Thundercloud guard also raised the bid.
"Nine hundred thirty three spirit stones!" Anastasia Spring was the victor on the fight for the twenty second item.
"Sold!" Dylan stated accordingly.
Dylan continued: "Let me present to you all, the next item is a High Earth Rank Herb called the Heavenly Eight Leaves lotus. Each individual leaf of the Heavenly Eight Leaves Lotus posses remarkable healing ability. The leaves could alleviate any type of poison or ailment. It could also instantly heal flesh wounds. But the most heavenly effect of the herb is that it could even regrow an amputated limb! For this herb, we will start with the price of 180 spirit stones!"
"One hundred eighty spirit stones!" A rich looking pretty boy was rather quick as he was the first to state the opening price.
"One hundred eight one spirit stones." A gray cloaked person stated a bid.
"One hundred ninety spirit stones!" A young mistress from a clan who placed 100 also raised a bid.
"Two hundred five spirit stones!" An elder from the Enchanted Garden also decided to bid.
"Two hundred twelve spirit stones!" The companion of the Pill King also raised the price.
"One thousand four hundred stones!" Pavilion Head Galahad was the last bidder for this herb.
Subsequently, Dylan announced, "Sold!"
"The quality of items are steadily rising but the twenty fourth item will be far different from the last three!" Jena of the Seven Thunderblades seriously said.
"I know. The master told us to seize the treasure no matter what the price!" Nick Williams said.
"Let us now move on to the next item. It was also given to me by a client. The next item is somewhat different from the others so far. Because it is not only one but two herbs!" Dylan looked around the crowd while he was delivering the speech. His words attracted the attention of the crowd even more.
"Two herbs? So it is a joint item?" The crowd started to gossip about the next item.
"Ooooh, I wonder what would they be." A person thought aloud.
"This two herbs are very complimentary with each other. Individually, they are both High Earth Rank herbs but together, their effectiveness increase by several levels, reaching Heaven Rank! I am certain than everyone knows what type of item this is." Dylan teasingly chided.
"It can\'t be..." Azelmek understood his hidden meaning and he knew excactly what he was referring to.
"This child actually has two of them?!" Sheldon was in a similar position.
"Unbelievable..." Allen did not expect what the 24th item was.
"Uncle, is he actually referring to a Herbal Set?!" Even Veronica did not believe that another Herbal Set has just appeared when there was just another herbal set before this.
"I-I don\'t know any other treasure that could match his hints." Her uncle replied with an uncertain tone.
"It is excactly what most of you think! It is a Herbal Set called Lightning and Thunder!!" Dylan disclosed with a smile.
"WHAT?!" The crowd almost fell out of their seats when they heard it! It was especially so for Romero and Dorin Thunder!
"This...." Th two of them could not belive their ears when they heard it.
"This Herbal Set is comprised of only two herbs which are the Thunderclap Clover and the Lightningblade Grass! If these two are ingested at the same time, that person could change change the talent or even enhance the talent of a person for the Lightning and Thunder attribute to beyond genius level! I am sure that everyone knows what the power of both lightning and thunder holds. To prove it, two members of the greatest talents of the country, Mythical 10 have the power of lightning and thunder, one of them is even crowned the strongest of all talents and you all know who I am talking about, right?" Dylan cunningly smiled after he ended his speech.
Within the Thunder Clan\'s Residence...
Zachary smashed the armrest of the chair he was sitting on with his barheands when he recieved the report. He trembled as he thought, \'If Gil consumes the Lightning and Thunder Herbal Set, his talent would almost reach Victor and the clan would have two supreme level talents!! By then, the conquest of conquering the entire country would no longer be a dream but a goal we can certainly attain!\'
He immediately grabbed his Spiritual Transmitter and contacted Dorin, " Dorin, change of plans! You must get that set at all cost even if it means spending 6,000 spirit stones on it!"
Dorin comminicated back and replying flustered, "Uh, yes, I will do everything in my power to get it!"
Something similar also happened within the Headquarters of the Thundercloud Guards...
"To think a Lightning and Thunder Herbal Set would actually appear, with it\'s help Lancelot would be able to become as strong as Victor Thunder! Quickly contact Kyrie and Hanz! Tell them getting this set is a must!" The only Marshal Paladin of the Thundercloud Guards, Barachel Vane abruptly ordered.
"Yes, sir!" The Army Captain who was bowing to him replied.
In the headquarters of the Thunderstrike Guild....
"What did you say? A Lightning and Thunder Herbal Set?! Are you serious?" A large black haired man with a scar on his left eye that stretched from the forehead to the neck asked multiple times.
"Yes, sir. This was a report made by the three Lord Thunderblades." The subordinate was kneeling on one knee while he spoke.
"THEN, WHAT THE FUCK ARE YOU STILL BLABBERING ABOUT?! I DON\'T CARE WHAT THE PRICE IS! GET THAT TREASURE FOR MY DAUGHTER!!" The large man apparently was extremely short tempered so he suddenly bursted in anger.
"Wi... Will do, sir!" The man struggled and quickly ran out of the room.
"That\'s all the details I know about the treasure. Now to start the auction, the starting price would be 500 spirit stones!" Dylan smiled as he said.
"What the hell?! You might as well rob someone! What a~" Someone among the crowd voiced out his displeasure when the Top 20 powers suddenly made their moves!
"Five hundred spirit stones!" Dorin Thunder was the first to step into the competition but just as he finished, another voice spoke.
"Seven hundred spirit stones!" Thundercloud Army Captain quickly raised the price by a two hundred spirit stones!
"One thousand spirit stones!!!" Nick Williams strongly shouted as he raised the price to a terrifying number!!
"One thousand two hundred spirit stones!!" Another roar from the camp of the Thunder Grand Clan was heard but this time it was Romero who spoke.
The price went upwards at a frightening rate! It quickly reached two thousand five hundred spirit stones in no time!
"I..." The person who just spoke was so embarassed that felt he just slapped himself ten times in public due to what he said.
Dylan was in deep thought while the unceasing wars were occuring. \'Seeing the rate of increase, I would estimate that the lowest price that I can get from this would be around four thousand stones and the highest would be around fove thousand five hundred I guess. After this item, I guess that my profit would be around 10,000 spirit stones and if converted that would be approximately 10,000,000 gold coins. Hehehe, I started from barely zero yet now I am already a millionaire. Who would have thought?\'
