Swordsman the Wanderer

Ch. 409 - Auction I

After pondering over the matter of his meeting with the three Fire Spirit Sect Elders in the dimension of the Snowy Ice World, Zhang En decided not to tell his Master Lin Ming about those who colluded in secret with the elders from the Heavenly Dragon Sect. 

If that matter was revealed, news of him obtaining the Ice World treasure would also be revealed. At that time, those three elders would definitely look for ways to target him. 

The seal installed on the Ice World's huge treasure chest far exceeded Zhang En's current ability to solve it, however, with Long Xioba's existence, it was a different matter. Then, Long Xioba still needed an entire month before he managed to release all the restrictions set up to protect the treasure chest.

As the treasure chest opened, Zhang En saw a towering mountain of god-level spirit pills within the coffin, the winding mountain of star coins extended peak after peak and pile of god and saint level spirit stones, as well as countless potions and pills, left Zhang En dumbfounded.

Long Xioba finally laughed proudly and said to Zhang En, “From the outside, this treasure chest does not look big, but in reality, it is, it is, this treasure room had already been expanded many times over by the Supreme God experts of the Dragon Race using their space-time laws. The Ice World Sacred Sect was the leading sect tens of thousands of years ago, how could their treasure chest not be this big?”

Zhang En simply nodded as he gulped his saliva in shock at the contents of the treasure chest after it was opened.

Although he could condense spirit stones and he did not lack for money, he was still shocked by the wealth treasures displayed before his eyes. Gazing at the pile of spirit stones and the pile of star coins as well as the medicinal herbs that stretched wide inside the treasure room, his eyes widened. 

This number could no longer be summed up in the billions, not a trillion Or ten trillion, Perhaps, a hundred trillion in number.

On one side of the treasure chest room, there were armor and weapons stacked into a small hill. Although it had yet to determine the durability of this armor, Zhang En could see at a glance that these armors and weapons were not ordinary items. At the very least, they reached a god-level artifact. In an instant, Zhang En flew over one of the god-level spirit pill mountains. Taking a quick glance, he headed towards the pile of white-colored spirit pills.

Despite feeling pleased, Zhang En also felt slightly disappointed at the same time. On the edge of this god-level spirit pill mountain range, Zhang En found eleven divine dragon beast cores and quite a number of Heavenly God-level divine dragon beast cores.

Zhang En then took the core of an early stage Heavenly God-level divine dragon beast and began to absorb it. The demon essence energy contained within this beast core was extremely frightening. 

After a long while, the essence of the beast core spun like a never-ending whirlpool, flowing through Zhang En's body, giving him a sensation like his body was about to explode the next moment.

In the blink of an eye, five months had passed.

At the end of the fifth month, after absorbing the seven beast cores, Zhang En's strength grew again and finally broke through to the three-star God Emperor realm realm realm realm.

One day before the once-a-year auction held by the Fire Spirit Auction House, after stabilizing his cultivation, Zhang En came out from his closed-door slaughterhouse. 

After which, he headed to the palace of Lin Ming's residence.

When Zhang En arrived at the Lin Ming residence, the first word Lin Ming said upon seeing Zhang En was, “You always hide and shut yourself in cultivation, one cannot even find your shadow. Even for this Master of yours who wants to meet you is also a difficult thing.”

Zhang En only scratched his head with a smile.

"The first elder brother of your class must have told you about the inner disciple competition that will be held in the next few years, the Heavenly Dragon Sect will send some of their inner disciples to attend the competition." Said Lin Ming and went straight to the topic, no longer teasing Zhang En with his words.

"There is still four more years of inner disciple competition," said Lin Ming with a slight frown between his eyebrows, "the time is too short." A glint of worry flashed in his eyes.

Despite admitting that this little disciple of his was extremely talented, always managing to shock him and everyone, Lin Ming still doubted that Zhang En could defeat a group of strange disciples from the Heavenly Dragon Sect.

Knowing that Lin Ming still had doubts on her, Zhang En let the matter stop for now as he changed the subject, "Teacher, is there news of Senior Demon Woman ?"

Lin Ming replied, "There hasn't been any news of him until now, but I have a hunch he will definitely appear at the auction tomorrow."

Furthermore, Zhang En asked Lin Ming about some cultivation related issues he had encountered. The two of them spoke for a while before Zhang En withdrew, leaving the Lin Ming residence. Zhang En then walked towards the sect Square and directly used the portal gate to go to Spirit City.

Since tonight was the night before the auction, the Spirit City was many times more lively than usual. The appearance of saint grade spirit stone items had attracted many experts from all corners of the galaxy, there were even some who came from the other three galaxies. Spacious streets in the city also feel crowded compared to ordinary days.

Walking out of the portal gate, Zhang En headed straight for the Zhang Clan Residence in Wudang City.

Arriving there, Zhang En took out a spirit pill, distributed it to all of them, each person receiving a hundred pills.

The next day...

The entire Spirit City was filled with excitement, the crowd walked towards the auction house. As soon as the sun rose above the horizon, Zhang En brought Lie Hue directly to the auction house.

By the time the two of them reached the auction house, it was already filled with a sea of humans. As a direct disciple of the Spirit Fire Sect Master, naturally, the VIP private room was arranged for Zhang En.

After the two of them sat inside the private room space, Zhang En noticed Lie Hue's nervousness. He then reached out and held the girl's hands together, reassuring her, "Don't worry, Senior Demon Woman will definitely appear."

Half an hour passed as more and more high-level experts from different corners of the galaxy filled the auction hall. Finally, the auction began.

As the items and auction items went through the auction stage one after another. A gasping, startled voice, a startled cry,*****heavy and screams could be heard nonstop at the auction house.

Zhang En just sat inside the private room with Lie Hue while watching the auction show.

"It was the beast core of the True Dragon King and was really good." Long Xioba said as he praised, “These two beast cores of the True Dragon King are comparable to the ten divine dragon beast cores inside the Ice World Treasure chests. Son, you should get those two beast cores.!”.

Zhang En nodded and replied, "Alright old man... I'll get those two core items..!"
