Unparalleled After Ten Consecutive Draws

Chapter 857: A Useless Piece of Rock? Open Your Eyes Wide and Watch, the Purple Source Metal

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Wang Hang felt extremely humiliated.

‘So the armor that I spent three billion and two hundred million was Chu Kuangren’s unwanted item? And I could’ve gotten it for only two billion and two hundred million? To think I spent an extra billion just because I wanted to bid against him!’

All of his money had gone into Chu Kuangren’s pockets!

At that thought, his chest almost exploded with rage.

“D*mn it. God-f*ck*ng d*mn it!”

“How dare he mess with someone like me?!”

With a bang, Wang Hang crushed the armrest of his chair into pieces!

At that moment, Manager Li was having that black armor taken to him.

Wang Hang looked at the armor, a top-tier defensive Great Daoist Weapon, placed before him. If he had obtained something like that in the past, he would have been incredibly happy.

Yet now, he saw it as an eyesore.

He even wanted to destroy it on the spot.

However, he resisted that urge.

No matter what, it was still a Great Daoist Weapon that he purchased with three billion and two hundred million. Despite how humiliated he felt, he must endure it.

The auction continued.

Having spent three billion and two hundred million, Wang Hang had become more alert and no longer wanted to bid for more items.

“The last item that’s going to be displayed is something that even the appraisers of our Three Thousand Firms failed to identify its value. As such, I’ve decided to put it on auction, and now anyone interested is free to bid for it.” Manager Li smiled.

He then ordered his workers to place a black rock on display.

Faint Daoist patterns could be seen swirling around it — an indication that it was a valuable item.

However, no one had any idea what it could be used for.

To take a closer look at that item, everyone mobilized their Emperor Thoughts and tried to peek within that rock. However, their Emperor Thoughts were all repelled from the rock’s surface.

“What a peculiar rock.”

“Could this be some sort of weapon-forging material? Seeing that most ores can be used in weaponsmithing, I don’t see why this rock would be an exception.”

“Who knows? Perhaps it’s just an ordinary rock that’s a little weird-looking. It might even be completely useless too.”

Everyone started their discussions.

Soon after, some started to name their price.

Many were interested in getting their hands on it.

However, only a few were willing to spend a lot to get it.

“Fifty million spiritual marrow.”

Chu Kuangren said.

Seeing that Chu Kuangren had started to bid, everyone became interested.

It was especially true for Wang Hang, who then declared his price. “Eighty million spiritual marrow.”

“A hundred million.”

Chu Kuangren continued upping his price.

At that price point, most of the crowd had given up on that item.

Only Wang Hang was left bidding against Chu Kuangren. He deliberately wanted to up the price against Chu Kuangren, declaring his bid of a hundred and twenty million.

“One hundred and fifty million.”

“Two hundred million!” Wang Hang glanced at Chu Kuangren proudly.

Chu Kuangren turned silent, seemingly pondering whether it was worth it to purchase that rock with an unknown value for more than two hundred million.

“Two hundred million. Is anyone else still interested to bid?”

The whole place turned silent.

Deep down, Wang Hang got a little anxious.

He had already spent three billion and two hundred million on the Great Daoist Weapon earlier. If he were to spend another two hundred million just for that seemingly useless piece of rock, the losses he suffered would be tremendous. His dad would certainly beat him to death when he returned home.

“Two hundred million spiritual marrow, calling once.”

Wang Hang looked at Chu Kuangren. “Why have you stopped bidding, Brother Chu? Is something wrong? Can’t you afford to go any higher?!”

‘You better bid now!’

He yelled internally.

However, Chu Kuangren remained calm as he sat in his seat.

“Two hundred million spiritual marrow, calling twice.”

‘I’m done for.’

Wang Hang screamed internally.

It was a terrible loss!

If he knew better, he would have stopped bidding against Chu Kuangren.

“Two hundred and ten million.”

Just as Manager Li was about to close the item with his hammer, Chu Kuangren spoke.

Everyone immediately looked at him, and Wang Hang breathed a sigh of relief. He did not dare to bid anymore after that.

In the end, that rock of unknown origins was bought by Chu Kuangren for the high price of two hundred and ten million.

Wang Hang sneered. “Spending two hundred million for a useless piece of rock? You really do have an interesting hobby, Brother Chu.”

Everyone could not help but shake their heads.

“This Wang clan heir is just too impetuous. If it weren’t for that other guy, he would have been the one paying two hundred million instead.”

“But why does this person suddenly want to help the Wang clan’s heir?”

“Could he be interested in that rock?”

Chu Kuangren held that black rock and smiled. “A useless piece of rock? Keep your eyes wide open and watch.”

Then, his vast Emperor qi surged forth and struck that black rock non-stop. Soon, cracks began to appear on the rock’s surface.

Manager Li’s eyes widened as he watched from the side.

He knew that the black rock was incredibly sturdy because they had tried opening it up too. Even a Daoist Celestial’s attacks could hardly damage it.

Yet, that rock was breaking under the impact of Chu Kuangren’s Emperor qi.

“He’s certainly a top-tier Immortal Progeny. What a remarkable strength.”

Manager Li thought to himself.

Everyone’s gaze was drawn to the gradually breaking rock.

As the cracks increased and grew, rays of purple light shot out from within, illuminating the entire hall.

Eventually, the black surface of that rock fell off, revealing a fist-sized purple crystal with faint golden light patterns swirling around it.

At the sight of the crystal, everyone’s breath turned heavy.

“T-This is… a Purple Temporal Core Source Metal!”

Manager Li exclaimed.

Purple Temporal Core Metal was the highest grade of forging material in the Violet Gold Galaxy, and most of that metal’s ore vein was under Planet Zi and Planet Jin’s control.

Hence, it would be extremely difficult for any ordinary cultivator to get their hands on it.

As for the Purple Temporal Core Source Metal, it was the rarest form of Purple Metal. Even Planet Zi and Planet Jin did not have much of that Purple Source Metal.

The value of that fist-sized Purple Source Metal was hard to estimate, but it was clearly more valuable than the top-tier Great Daoist Weapon auctioned earlier!

“How can this be! It’s a Purple Source Metal!”

Wang Hang exclaimed.

Then, he was filled with endless rage and regret.

‘How can it be a Purple Source Metal?’

If he had not given up earlier, the Purple Source Metal would have been his. What kind of priceless treasure had he missed out on?

“Getting a Purple Source Metal for only two hundred and ten million is nothing short of magnificent purchase. Brother Chu, you have quite the keen eye!”

“That’s right. While everyone had no idea what this black and ugly rock contained, he knew that it was a Purple Source Metal inside.”

“Heh. He sold a Great Daoist Weapon for three billion two hundred million and bought a Purple Source Metal for only two hundred million? It looks like he’s the true winner of this auction today. The Wang clan’s heir was played like a fool until the end.”

“This guy doesn’t seem to be a deadbeat cultivator. In fact, he must have a very good and powerful background. Can a deadbeat even put a Great Daoist Weapon on auction?”

Everyone looked at Chu Kuangren with surprise.

Tang Haitang gazed at Chu Kuangren with admiration too.

After the auction ended.

“Brother Chu, here are the spiritual marrows from the auction.”

Manager Li said as he took out a Yin and Yang ring.

“Thanks,” replied Chu Kuangren and received the Yin and Yang ring.

“You’re welcome, Brother Chu.”

Once he left the auction and returned to the city hall, Chu Kuangren fiddled with the Purple Source Metal in his room. “Thank god I had Lil Ai to analyze the contents of the black rock for me. Otherwise, even I would’ve missed out on such a wonderful item.”

Even Chu Kuangen, who had the Treasure Locating Skill, did not notice the Purple Source Metal inside. That was how well hidden it was.

“With this Purple Source Metal, I can increase the quality of my Descendant Self Sword to the next level,” Chu Kuangren mumbled while touching the hilt of his Descendant Self Sword.

That was one of his goals.

As a top-tier Weaponsmith, Chu Kuangren naturally knew how to handle this Purple Source Metal and integrate it into his Descendant Self Sword..
