Chapter 422: Chapter 421: Giant Black Crow Stone



"One thousand five hundred Elemental Coins, for the third time, congratulations to Guest No. 336."

Having secured the item, Tang San immediately breathed a sigh of relief, his face revealing joy. It seemed his luck was really booming, and it was the first auction item that was highly beneficial to him. This truly was excellent news.

"Tang San, you don\'t need to do this. The teacher knows their own talent. Although we\'ve earned a lot of money this time, we still need to spend it wisely!" At that moment, Zhang Haoxuan\'s voice came through.

Tang San immediately understood that his teacher had misunderstood. But this wasn\'t the time to tell his teacher, "Teacher, you\'re overthinking it."

"Teacher, the Essence Spirit has other uses, not just for Devouring. I\'ll explain in detail when we get back," Tang San briefly explained.

On the other side, Guest No. 338, Zhang Haoxuan, paused for a moment, then said somewhat awkwardly, "Oh, oh, we\'ll discuss it when we get back."

Tang San hadn\'t wanted to disappoint his teacher, but he was worried that if he didn\'t speak up, the teacher might just absorb the item after settling the bill before he returned, which would be problematic.

"Next, please welcome our second auction item."

When the second auction item was brought up, it was significantly larger in volume; it was over one cubic meter in size, judging by the red cloth covering it.

"Today\'s second auction item is a piece of ore. I believe all the distinguished guests are familiar with this ore, known as Black Crow Stone. Although the value of Black Crow Stone itself isn\'t too high, such a giant piece of high-quality Black Crow Stone is probably a first for everyone," said the Blue Fox Auctioneer as she unveiled the red cloth covering the second item.

When Tang San heard the words "Black Crow Stone," a look of surprise crossed his face.

Originally, at the Redemption Academy\'s small store, the first bargain he had picked up was Black Crow Stone! To be exact, it was Black Gold, which was not recognized by the people of the Monster Clan and Spirit Clan in this world. Black Gold, refined from Black Crow Stone through high-temperature forging, is characterized by its strong penetrative power and unbreakable nature. Tang San had used the Black Crow Stone he had initially bought, as well as those he later acquired from the market, to forge various hidden weapons for his companions. He had not expected to encounter this metal again during today\'s unique auction.

As the red cloth was lifted, a giant piece of Black Crow Stone appeared before all the bidders. It was an extremely complete piece, nearly two cubic meters in size, with an irregular shape, and its surface was pitch-black, yet it had an intrinsic sense of depth. The Black Crow Stone he had bought before would have been good if it weighed a dozen kilograms, but the one before him, based on his knowledge of its density, must weigh at least several tons. No wonder several members of the Bear Clan had to push it on a cart to the center of the Grand Animal Fighting Arena.

"The Black Crow Stone is known for its hardness. Such a huge Black Crow Stone is the first recorded occurrence, and it has been personally inspected by King-class beings, who vaguely sensed some special energy within it. Given its immense size, it is initially suspected that this Black Crow Stone has the potential to develop wisdom. The birth of wisdom means that it\'s very likely to face a Heavenly Tribulation and transform into a Spirit Monster, and it might even become a king-class being. Hence, it was brought here as a unique item. The Ancestral Court can guarantee that energy fluctuations have indeed been detected within it. However, whether it can nurture a Spirit Monster, and what kind of being it might be, is up to the distinguished guests to judge. The starting bid is three hundred Elemental Coins."

Without a doubt, this item had even greater uncertainty than the previously auctioned Essence Spirit, so the starting bid was much lower.

Black Crow Stone was not uncommon in Demon Monster Land and was not highly priced. Even if it truly could cultivate into a spirit, how much value would it have? To subdue such a Spirit Monster as a vassal? If it really could give birth to a king-class being, a bid of three hundred Elemental Coins would be worth it, after all, that would be a king-class powerhouse. But the chance of birthing a king-class entity was slim to begin with, not to mention it had to survive a Heavenly Tribulation. How easy was it to survive such an ordeal? To the eyes of the Monster Clan and Spirit Clan, the Black Crow Stone was not considered a powerful origin.

Therefore, when the Blue Fox Auctioneer announced the starting price, there was an unusual silence. Not a single bidder placed a bet on the Black Crow Stone.

Seeing this, the Blue Fox Auctioneer couldn\'t help but frown slightly. From its own perspective, it also didn\'t consider this Black Crow Stone to have any qualities worth bringing to an auction, especially with a price tag of three hundred Elemental Coins. Who would foolishly spend so much money on such an item? However, this was indeed the largest Black Crow Stone excavated on record.

All it could do was to reiterate, "This Black Crow Stone has been tested for hardness and is more durable than any known Black Crow Stone, indicating its superior quality. Should it turn into a spirit, its defensive power is expected to be exceptional, and there\'s a good chance it could survive Tribulation."

The chill persisted in the bidding hall!

Those who came to bid were all beings with strong judgment. Moreover, bidding on rare artifacts was different from yesterday\'s auction of spiritual items. It was common for high prices to be paid for junk during artifact auctions. Of course, there were also cases of lucky bargains. But artifact auction day generally wasn\'t as successful as the first day\'s auction of spiritual items, let alone the last day\'s Divine Object bidding.

So, the auction on the second day had always been a time of relatively poor sales at the Ancestral Court Auction. It was not uncommon for items whose value was difficult to ascertain to be passed over without bids.

"Three hundred Elemental Coins, guest number 336 has bid. Thank you, guest number 336," the Blue Fox Auctioneer was already preparing to countdown and let the item be passed over when, to its surprise, a bid appeared on the crystal screen in front of it. It was the same number 336 who had secured the Essence Spirit earlier.

Someone\'s bidding on this thing? That was what many bidders were thinking at the moment, and yes, Tang San had placed a bid.

If the price were set based on the total volume, a regular Black Crow Stone even five times larger than this wouldn\'t be worth three hundred Elemental Coins. But after listening to the auctioneer\'s introduction, Tang San had been ready to bid. Had he not been worried about other bidders detecting something amiss and competing with him, he would have bid right at the start. Only those who understood the true value of treasures knew their uses.

"Three hundred Elemental Coins for the first time, three hundred Elemental Coins for the second time, and for the third time, sold!" the Blue Fox Auctioneer did not delay any further. It knew very well that not being passed over was good enough for this item, so it quickly concluded the auction, allowing Tang San to once again secure the item he desired.

With back-to-back acquisitions, even though they weren\'t particularly valuable items, number 336 still caught the attention of quite a few bidders.

The bidding continued, with the subsequent items presented showcasing the characteristic eccentricities of rare artifacts. There were indeed all kinds of oddities, such as unknown meteorites that fell from the sky, giant eggs with Life Aura within, and Giant Pearls produced by the Endless Blue Ocean, and so on.

However, these items didn\'t hold much value in Tang San\'s eyes. It was the giant egg, however, that fetched a handsome price. Tang San did not participate; the egg indeed contained a very strong Life Aura. But he could almost certainly determine that it was a hybrid creature. More importantly, Tang San could sense that the spiritual fluctuation and Life Aura of the egg didn\'t match. The Life Aura was extremely strong, but the spiritual fluctuation was weak. This meant that even if the creature inside was strong, the chances of it being born with wisdom were slim at best. It would at most be a Demon Beast, not a Monster.
