Chapter 2020

When Yang Kai returned to the side room again, it seemed that another auction item had been finalized and he didn’t know who had taken it away.

Hasn’t it come to the finale Dao Source Fruit yet? Yang Kai asked in surprise after taking his seat.

Kang Siran shook his head and smiled bitterly, saying, “There seem to be a great many auction items this time, but it should be soon.”

Yang Kai nodded slightly and stopped talking, casting his gaze towards the high platform.

On that high platform, the Drunken Old Man once again revealed a mysterious smile. Looking around, he said loudly, “The auction item to be displayed next is no small matter, and it is also extremely rare. It was not originally an item prepared for this auction, but was temporarily submitted by a friend present. Although doing so is a bit against the rules, after being appraised by the City Lord, this item indeed has the value to participate in the auction, so it is allowed to be auctioned. Hehe, if any of you here have cultivated a fire-attribute cultivation method or have a fire-attribute secret treasure, please pay attention.”

As he spoke, he gestured backward, and immediately a maid stepped onto the high platform, holding a round bowl-like object in both hands.

In the auction field, the gazes of countless martial artists all looked towards that round bowl, filled with curiosity. Especially those martial artists who had cultivated fire-attribute cultivation techniques or had fire-attribute secret treasures really became greatly interested.

Just by looking at it, one could tell that the round bowl was a kind of restricted secret treasure. There were bursts of restricted light Youdaoplaceholder0 on it, and occasionally, runes the size of rice grains wandered around on it, as dexterous as live fish.

Most of the martial artists present had extraordinary eyesight and naturally could tell at a glance that what was going to be auctioned was not the round bowl, but the thing inside the round bowl.

“Interesting. I wonder what is sealed inside here.” Kang Siran smiled slightly and also focused his attention intently.

However, the moment the round bowl appeared, Yang Kai’s brows furrowed tightly.

For some unknown reason, he always felt that there was a strange induction connected to his mind coming from inside the round bowl. But because of the many restricted forces on the round bowl, this induction became extremely weak and almost imperceptible. If it weren’t for the palpitations and restlessness in his heart, even he wouldn’t have dared to be sure.

Yang Kai released his spiritual sense to investigate, but he couldn’t break through the restricted force to clearly investigate the situation inside. He also didn’t dare to use force and could only keep frowning.

“Master Yang Dan, do you know what is inside？” Kang Siran saw that Yang Kai’s expression was not right and asked curiously.

Yang Kai shook his head subconsciously, but his gaze was fixed firmly on the round bowl. Yang Kai shook his head subconsciously, but his gaze was firmly fixed on the round bowl.

At this moment, the Drunken Old Man on the platform had already begun to explain: “This auction item was consigned for auction by a friend at the Dao Source level. Because this friend practices the water-attribute technique, it happens to be incompatible with this thing. So he had to reluctantly part with it. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have taken it out.”

“Lord Vice City Master, stop beating around the bush. This doesn’t suit your character. “Some impatient martial artists understage urged.

The drunken old man laughed heartily for a while and nodded, saying, “That’s right. This old man has an impatient temper and really isn’t suitable for such a slow pace. However, what needs to be said still has to be said. As you all know, a few months ago in Fenglin City, it was widely rumored that a fire-type weapon spirit appeared in the nearby Yuqing Mountain, attracting many warriors to go and investigate. In the end, it was confirmed that it wasn’t a fire-type weapon spirit at all, but a descendant of the Luanfeng. Many warriors in our Fenglin City died or were injured in the scramble of this Luanfeng descendant, but no one succeeded. In the end, it attracted the appearance of the Holy Spirit Luanfeng. With a single mouthful of world-destroying black flame, Yuqing Mountain is still burning to this day. The might of the Holy Spirit is truly terrifying.”

He let out a series of long sighs and short moans, as if he had really seen that world-destroying black flame with his own eyes.

“Vice City Lord, could it be that this time’s auction item… is actually a descendant of the Holy Spirit？” The martial artists below guessed excitedly when they heard what the Drunken Old Man said.

There are not a few people who think this way. In an instant, the breathing of many martial artists became rapid, and they all stared at the round bowl with fiery eyes.

The Drunken Old Man sneered： “Descendants of the Holy Spirit？ You really dare to think. If there were really descendants of the Holy Spirit here, not to mention whether you dare to bid. Our Maple Forest City would not take it out for auction either. In case we annoyed some Holy Spirit, the current situation of Yuqing Mountain would be the end of our Maple Forest City. At that time, the living beings would be devastated. Who can bear this responsibility？”

As soon as these words came out, many people shivered. After thinking about it carefully, it was also true. Under the whole world, who has the courage to take out the descendants of the Holy Spirit for auction？ This is simply courting death.

“Then what you just said, Deputy City Lord…”

The Drunken Old Man pouted and said： “The key point is not the descendants of the Holy Spirit, but the fire-attribute weapon spirit！ I really don’t know how you people listen. Alright, let me show you what the auction item this time is.”

As he spoke, he pinched the spiritual formula with his hand and continuously hit the round bowl. With the flickering of the prohibition on the round bowl, a clear bird chirping sound suddenly came out from the round bowl. Immediately after that, a fiery red light shot out from it.

Hoo… With a sound.

On that high platform, a strange bird suddenly appeared. It was about two zhang in length, and its entire body was like a burning flame. The strange bird looked somewhat similar to the Holy Spirit Phoenix, but there were also some differences. In the burning flame all over its body, there were even wisps of purple thunder arcs flickering and jumping.

This strange bird actually mastered the two powers of thunder and fire.

Moreover, the aura it exuded from its body was also extraordinary. It had clearly reached the level of the Void King Third Layer. Its body made of flame was majestic and powerful, with full wings and extremely beautiful.

It raised its head and let out a long cry, and there was a hint of stubbornness, anger and unyielding in its voice.

“Liuyan！”

In Room No. 9 of Class B, Yang Kai suddenly stood up, his eyes shrank suddenly, and he let out a cry.

“Master Yang Dan?” Konsiran looked at Yang Kai with a strange expression on his face. He didn’t know why he suddenly had such a big React. But when he saw Yang Kai’s face was both surprised and angry his eyes rolled and he suddenly had a vague understanding.

Yang Kai never expected that he would meet Liuyan again in this situation.

On that day in the Starlight Passage, he and his two major helpers were separated from President Aio, Lord Red Moon and others one after another. So far, he didn’t know where they were.

Leaving aside President Ior and the Red Moon Lord and others, Yang Kai has always been very worried about Xiao Xiao and Liu Yan. Because one of them is a stone puppet with not high intelligence, and the other is the spirit of a weapon. No matter which one is discovered by a strong person, they will surely encounter some risks. Especially Liu Yan, for some martial artists who have cultivated fire-attribute skills or have fire-attribute secret treasures, the attraction is extremely huge.

Liu Yan’s spirit of the weapon body, if it can be absorbed by the person who cultivates the fire-attribute skill, then it can greatly increase the strength of the martial artist. If it is integrated into the fire-attribute secret treasure, it is also enough to make that fire-attribute secret treasure upgrade a level.

As the saying goes, what Yang Kai fears will come true. Now it seems that Liu Yan has indeed been caught by a strong person and put into this auction. It can be imagined that there will surely be a scramble among many martial artists next.

Fortunately, Yang Kai is also at the auction site now and has room for maneuver. This can be regarded as a blessing in misfortune！

No wonder when the round bowl was just brought up, Yang Kai always felt a spiritual connection with the sealed thing in the round bowl.

When Liu Yan didn’t have much intelligence back then, Yang Kai had once refined its ontology and naturally there would be a spiritual induction between the two. This kind of induction will never be cut off.

And just as Yang Kai stood up, the Flowing Flame on the platform seemed to sense something as well. Its pair of fiery eyes looked towards the Room No. B9 where Yang Kai was located, and the clear chirping from its mouth became even louder. It flapped its wings vigorously, trying to fly towards Yang Kai.

But upon seeing this, the Drunken Old Man simply changed the hand seal in his hand, and a restraint like a chain suddenly emerged on the body of the Flowing Flame, directly binding its two wings and making it fall heavily.

“Stop！” Seeing this, Yang Kai couldn’t help but roar.

However, as soon as the words came out of his mouth, he knew that his performance was a bit too rash. Although the Flowing Flame originally belonged to him, it had now been captured by someone and put into the auction house, becoming an auction item.

He simply had no stance to ask the Drunken Old Man to show mercy to the Flowing Flame. If he behaves too obviously, it might even make people see something.

With this thought in mind, he took a deep breath and said lightly, “Vice City Lord, please be careful. I am very interested in this weapon spirit. Please don’t hurt it.”

The Drunken Old Man had a good temper. Hearing this, he glanced in the direction where Yang Kai was and chuckled, “Don’t worry, this old man knows what he’s doing and will definitely not really hurt it. Well, as you all can see, what is going to be auctioned this time is this fire-attribute weapon spirit. It’s not an ordinary weapon spirit. It has already awakened its spiritual intelligence, and its spiritual intelligence is not low. If one can absorb or integrate it into one’s own secret treasure, it will definitely be of great use.”

On the high platform, the Drunken Old Man was working hard to promote Liuyan, narrating all kinds of its unusual features, talking so beautifully that it also attracted the great interest of countless people.

In the private room, Yang Kai sat back on the chair, his expression gloomy.

In the current situation, if he wanted to snatch Liuyan back, he could only do it through the way of bidding. Or if he had the strength of the Emperor Respect Realm, he could ignore the thousands of Void King Realm cultivators and dozens of Origin Realm cultivators present and snatch Liuyan away with powerful strength.

The latter way couldn’t be implemented. Although Yang Kai had now reached the Void King Third-layer Realm and had several Emperor Treasures on him, if he really wanted to take action here, it would be no different from seeking death.

But if he wanted to get it through the way of bidding, he simply didn’t have that many Origin Crystals in his hand. At least, it was definitely not enough to bid for Liuyan.

For a moment, he was extremely anxious.

Kang Siran seemed to have seen a clue. After a moment of silence, he asked in a low voice, “Master Yang Dan, do you have any connection with that weapon spirit…？”

Yang Kai nodded and said, “Since Shopkeeper Kang has seen through it, I won’t hide it anymore. Its name is Liuyan, and it was originally my spiritual weapon！”

“Huh？ It’s Alchemist Yang’s spiritual weapon？” Although Kang Siran had expected it, he was still greatly surprised when he heard Yang Kai say so.”

“It’s not just a spiritual weapon. To me, it’s also a friend！”

“Friend…” Kang Siran looked at Yang Kai in astonishment, his mind in a daze. In this world, there are actually people who regard a spiritual weapon as a friend. In his opinion, it is simply unthinkable.”
