"Finally secured it safely."
When Lu Qing heard Venerable Zhenbao’s announcement, a slight smile appeared on his face.
Even Little Li couldn’t help but show excitement in his eyes.
"Mr. Chen, your expenditure is truly considerable."
The Five Treasure Taoist only managed to calm his emotions with difficulty and couldn’t help but sigh.
He found himself increasingly unable to understand this Mr. Chen.
Apart from his profound and unpredictable cultivation, now he was also displaying astonishing wealth.
Such a person, he had never even heard of before.
"It’s just a little trinket I bought, this amount of Spirit Stones is nothing. The bidding for those Spiritual Artifacts later, that’s the real grand expenditure."
Lu Qing shook his head with a smile.
He knew very well that he had gotten quite a bargain this time.
Although others couldn’t see the subtlety of the Void Core, just the fact that not even a Primordial Spirit Realm power could damage it might attract the interest of many powerful figures.
However, because there were High Grade Spirit Artifacts ing up later in the auction, many people wanted to conserve their strength and not casually waste Spirit Stones, allowing him to catch this opportunity.
Otherwise, he would have had to pay a significant price to acquire the Void Core,
At that moment, Lu Qing sensed a fluctuation ing from outside.
A Divine Soul Transmission reached him: "Honored guest in Box No. 19, you have successfully bid for Item No. 38. Would you like us to deliver the treasure now or wait until after the auction?"
"Is that an option?" Lu Qing was pleased upon hearing this and immediately said, "Then deliver it to me now."
The Void Core was too important; the sooner he had it in his hands, the sooner he could be at ease.
"Please wait a moment, honored guest."
After the Divine Soul Transmission vanished, it wasn’t long before there was a knock at the door.
However, the door to the VIP room was located in the back, also concealed and protected by an array.
This was to prevent the guests inside from being seen by others when the door was opened.
The Jade Token in Lu Qing’s hand was the key to controlling the array in the room. He manipulated the array and opened the door.
Outside stood two Foundation Establishment Realm cultivators in servant attire, standing respectfully.
One of them was holding a silver sphere.
"Honored guest, we have brought Item No. 38, please inspect it."
Lu Qing stepped forward, took the silver sphere, and, activating his Superpower, made a show of careful inspection.
After a while, when he saw the note-like information appear in his view, he nodded slightly.
"Good, the item is correct. Do I pay now?"
"Yes, we ask for your understanding, honored guest." One of the servants bowed respectfully.
Without hesitation, Lu Qing took out a bag from the Qiankun Qi Bag, extracted some Spirit Stones, and handed the bag over.
"Here are one thousand five hundred Middle Grade Spirit Stones, please count them to verify the amount."
The two servants accepted the bag and meticulously counted in front of Lu Qing.
Quickly, the two exchanged glances, confirming it was correct.
One of them bowed respectfully, "The amount is indeed correct. Thank you, honored guest."
"No problem."
"Then we will take our leave. We hope you will successfully bid for your desired treasures in the future."
"Thank you for your good wishes."
After the two servants left, Lu Qing returned to his seat, playing with the silver sphere in his hand.
Then he realized that without using his Superpower, even he couldn’t see through the mysteries of the Void Core.
Only that faint tremor still existed in his heart.
But that was also because he had refined the Void Flying Boat; otherwise, he might not have detected anything extraordinary within.
"Mr. Chen, have you discovered the wonder of this object?" the Five Treasure Taoist asked curiously.
"It’s not that simple," Lu Qing replied with a smile. "Even Tianshu City’s Treasure Appraisers and so many Primordial Spirit Realm masters can’t unravel the mystery of this treasure. How could someone like me have such abilities to surpass those esteemed predecessors?
I’m only interested in this item because it seems peculiar. That’s why I bid for it, planning to study it slowly in the future."
With that, he stored the silver sphere back in the Qiankun Qi Bag.
Currently, he still didn’t know what changes might occur when the Void Flying Boat and the core fused; this place was full of strong practitioners and not suitable.
If it weren’t for the fact that leaving now would draw some attention, Lu Qing wouldn’t want to wait until the auction ended.
The auction continued with intensity.
However, as the treasures appearing later became increasingly precious, with starting prices of tens of thousands of Spirit Stones,
cultivators in the hall below gradually lost the qualification to bid, leaving it to the petition among the guests in the VIP rooms above.
Lu Qing just watched and didn’t continue to bid.
In the middle, there was a sword array Magical Treasure posed of nine pieces of top-grade Treasure Level Flying Swords that caught his interest.
The [Seven-Star Sword Formation] he was pondering over would fit well with it.
But unfortunately, the price of that sword array was indeed too high, not much less than the most exquisite Treasures.
If he wanted to bid for it, his Spirit Stones would probably be almost depleted.
So, after hesitating for a while, Lu Qing ultimately gave up.
"Still too poor."
Lu Qing couldn’t help but sigh internally.
His over ten thousand Middle Grade Spirit Stones seemed like a lot.
But at this auction, wanting to buy a somewhat powerful treasure, it might not even be enough.
pared to the sect forces and noble families, his amount of Spirit Stones was pletely insignificant.
"I should still purchase some Refining Materials and refine Flying Swords myself when I have the chance," Lu Qing planned secretly in his heart.
