Chapter 44 - Chapter 43. Magical Weapons

Looking at the long sword on the jade pillar, the entire auction hall suddenly became so silent that one could hear a pin drop.

Those present are all intelligent people. Everyone understands that the Wu family would never casually take out a sword as the final highlight. Since it is not an ordinary sword, the answer is almost obvious.

"Whoosh!!!"

Just as everyone was thinking, Miss Wu of the Wu family, Wu Qingya, suddenly grabbed the long sword in her hand and then pulled the sword blade out of the scabbard.

As the long sword was unsheathed, everyone saw a flash of cold light pass through the hall. At this moment, the people of the Wu family below the high platform casually threw an iron rod made of refined iron onto the high platform, which just landed in front of Wu Qingya.

"Cut!!!"

Seeing the refined iron rod in front of her, Wu Qingya's eyes focused and directly slashed at the iron rod with her sword.

"Puff!!!!" A muffled sound spread. The refined iron rod, which was almost as thick as a baby's arm, was cut in two by the long sword. However, the long sword itself was intact, just like cutting a piece of wood.

"嘶..."

Witnessing Wu Qingya cut the refined iron rod with one sword, the entire hall immediately filled with the sound of people gasping in surprise. Everyone's eyes were all focused on the long sword, without hiding their desire to possess it.

"Divine weapon! It's a divine weapon!!"

"Crazy! The Wu family is simply crazy to take out a divine weapon for auction?"

"First, there were life-saving pills. Now there is a divine weapon that can cut iron like mud. Has the Wu family's business reached such a level?"

"Divine weapon! I actually saw a divine weapon. This entrance fee is truly worth it....."

After a brief silence, the entire hall immediately burst into a tide of discussions. Everyone became crazy. They knew that their guess must be correct. The final auction item in front of them was definitely a divine weapon. Because only a divine weapon can cut refined iron like cutting a piece of wood!

What is a divine weapon? Probably no one present doesn't know. Like pills, divine weapons can only be forged by divine masters. But it is more complex and rarer than pills.

The forging of a divine weapon is only one step more than that of an ordinary weapon. This step is the process in which a divine master condenses a special rune and then carves the rune into an ordinary weapon. It seems to be a very simple step, but this simple step has an extremely low success rate.

It is well known that divine masters use runes as a means of attack. A powerful divine master can condense powerful runes that can destroy heaven and earth with a single thought. Moving mountains and filling seas is not impossible. But if one wants to carve a rune into a weapon, it is quite difficult.

It can be said that even the most powerful divine master may fail countless times when trying to forge a divine weapon. And the price of failure is that the ordinary weapon used as raw material is directly ruined and becomes a pile of waste.

The materials used to forge divine weapons are extremely precious. Once ruined, it is a considerable loss. Therefore, without a strong economic foundation as support, ordinary divine masters generally dare not forge divine weapons easily.

Of course, once a divine weapon is successfully forged, the situation will be completely different. Just like the divine sword in Wu Qingya's hand. Without the rune contained in it, it is just an ordinary refined iron sword. If it is slashed on refined iron, the sword edge will surely break and turn into a piece of scrap iron.

But with the rune inside, this refined iron sword can cut iron like mud. When facing an enemy, even if the opponent's strength is significantly higher than one's own, in the face of the sharpness of the divine weapon, one can only temporarily avoid confrontation.

It can be said without hesitation that a minor accomplished martial artist in the Zhenyuan Realm who holds a divine weapon can completely make a major accomplished martial artist in the Zhenyuan Realm unable to fight back and even kill the opponent.

"Everyone, I think everyone has already guessed. The long sword in this little girl's hand is a first-order low-grade divine weapon. As the highlight of this auction, the starting price is thirty million gold!"

Wu Qingya's voice once again resounded through the hall. And this time, without her having to introduce much more, the sword just now has clearly shown the effect. Next, it depends on who can snatch this divine sword.

"What a terrifying sword! Is this the legendary divine weapon? It's simply going against the heavens!"

Yun Xiao's gaze has never shifted away from the divine sword in Wu Qingya's hand since it appeared. For him, all the treasures auctioned off in the previous auctions are probably not even one percent as good as this divine sword!

As a martial artist, no one can be indifferent to such a divine weapon. Just imagine, if one can have such a divine sword in hand, even when facing a perfect martial artist in the Zhenyuan Realm, he is completely confident in fighting.

"The divine sword forged by a divine master. Does it mean that in the future, I might also be able to forge such a divine weapon?"

Unlike others, although he is also amazed by the terrifying power of this divine sword, deep in his heart, he first associates it with his identity as a divine master.

He himself is a divine master. And as a divine master, he can forge divine weapons himself. At this moment, he is thinking that when his spiritual power is strong enough one day, perhaps he can casually forge such a terrifying sharp weapon.

"Fatty, this sword....."

Suddenly turning around, Yun Xiao couldn't help but look at Fatty with a burning gaze. The intention was quite obvious.

"Don't look at me. I don't have so many gold notes with me. I can only look at this divine sword."

Fatty's face is bitter at this moment, and there is nothing but regret in the depths of his eyes.

Undoubtedly, he also likes this divine sword very much. But unfortunately, he didn't bring so many gold notes with him this time. Thirty million can probably be gathered. But for such a divine weapon, how could thirty million gold be enough to win it?

It's all because he underestimated the level of the Wu family's auction. If he had known that there would be a divine weapon auction at the Wu family's auction, he would have gone to the bank and withdrawn more gold notes.

"You guy, you let me down at a critical moment. I thought you were really a mobile treasury!"

Hearing what Fatty said, Yun Xiao also understood that he was probably destined to have no chance with this divine sword. But then again, if he wants to take this divine sword, more is to observe its wonders. It's not just that he wants to possess it.

"This time it was my negligence. Next time, I will definitely bring enough gold notes and take down all the treasures of the Wu family."

Having lost face in front of Yun Xiao, Fatty also feels very embarrassed. But there is nothing he can do at this point. Fortunately, he also knows that Yun Xiao won't really blame him. At least he feels somewhat comforted.

"Forget it. Let's not talk about this anymore. Let's see who will win this divine sword. It's been so long. Why hasn't anyone bid yet? Could it be that the starting price is too high?"

Yun Xiao can let go easily and is not at all uncomfortable because he can't get the divine sword. Although the divine sword is good, it is after all an external thing. It is even a restraint on one's own strength improvement. It's fine if he doesn't have it.

Moreover, with his current strength, he probably can't control such a divine weapon. If some super strong people encounter it, they will probably directly snatch it away and may even be implicated because of it.....

The entire hall is noisy, but still no one bids. No one knows if they are considering or if they want to give up because the starting price is too high.

On the high platform, Wu Qingya is not in a hurry. Speaking of which, this last auction item is the one she is most confident about. She believes that this last auction item will definitely be auctioned off at a price that satisfies her.

"Such a divine weapon. The starting price of thirty million is actually a bit low. I bid forty million."

Just then, a man's voice suddenly resounded throughout the hall. Judging from the sound, the owner of the voice should be a young man. But the bid of forty million gold makes people automatically ignore these details.

"Someone has bid!"

As the number forty million spread, everyone immediately stopped discussing. And those who were originally planning to bid also lost the initiative and looked at the bidder together.

Soon, a young man with an extraordinary temperament appeared in front of everyone.

This is a young man who looks only seventeen or eighteen years old. The man is dressed in luxurious clothes and exudes the noble and proud air of a young master from head to toe. For the attention of tens of thousands of people, he is not at all nervous. Instead, he seems to enjoy it very much.

"It's actually a young man?"

After seeing the appearance of the bidder, everyone was surprised again. Obviously, they didn't expect that the number forty million gold would come from the mouth of a teenager.

"Everyone, I really like this divine sword. I hope everyone will do me a favor and let me have this sword."

The young man is smiling. He doesn't care about everyone's reaction at all. As he speaks, he even takes a step forward and bows to the people around him, gracefully.

"Young man, divine weapons are not toys for children. I think you'd better not compete. I bid forty-five million gold."

Just as the young man's voice just fell, a middle-aged man's voice came immediately. It directly increased the price by five million gold.

Everyone quickly looked in the direction of the voice. Soon, someone recognized the middle-aged man who had increased the price.

"It's the head of the Feng family, Feng Sidao. This big shot actually wants this divine sword too?"

"The Feng family is also a big family in Leiyun Prefecture. The family's background is very rich. The Feng family can definitely afford forty-five million gold."

"It is said that this head of the Feng family was injured before, making his cultivation stuck at the great accomplishment stage of the Zhenyuan Realm and difficult to advance. It seems that he wants to buy a divine sword to increase his combat power."

Everyone was discussing. Vaguely, they even figured out Feng Sidao's psychology.

"I said that I like this divine sword very much. Since that's the case, I bid fifty million gold."

The young man still had a smile on his face. Casually, he increased the price by another five million gold.

"I didn't expect that I would have to compete with a child for something today. Fifty-five million gold!"

Feng Sidao's face slightly cooled. He didn't expect the other party to add another five million gold. However, since he has already made a move, he naturally can't give up easily.

"Sixty million."

However, just as the number fifty million had just spread, the young man spoke again. And this time, he directly increased the price by ten million gold.

"Good heavens! Where did this young man come from? Sixty million gold. This is too exaggerated, right?"

"Although the divine sword is good, spending sixty million gold to buy such a sword is really hard to understand."

"Sixty million gold. I wonder if the head of the Feng family will continue to compete....."

As soon as the price of sixty million gold came out, everyone present couldn't help but blink. They were all shocked by this price. As they spoke, everyone's eyes turned to the head of the Feng family, Feng Sidao. But they found that his face was livid and obviously couldn't afford a higher price.

"Brother, don't look anymore. Let's slip away quickly while no one is paying attention to us."

Everyone's attention is all on the head of the Feng family and the suddenly emerging young man. At this time, Yun Xiao and Fatty are unconsciously ignored to one side.

Fatty's small eyes scanned around. Finally, he lowered his voice and greeted Yun Xiao.

"Huh?" Yun Xiao was watching with great interest. Suddenly hearing Fatty's greeting, he immediately understood what the other party meant.

They had spent thirty million gold to buy a pill this time. Probably they have already been noticed by some people with ulterior motives. If nothing unexpected happens, after the auction is over, there is a high chance that someone will have ideas about them. And leaving at this time might be able to avoid some attention.

Thinking through these things, Yun Xiao didn't say much. He nodded at Fatty. The two of them then lowered their postures. Taking advantage of the moment when no one was paying attention, they quickly left the auction hall.

The following auction has nothing to do with them. As for who will finally win the divine sword, it is likely that the whole Leiyun Prefecture will soon spread the news. There is no need to stay and watch until the end.
