The Supreme Martial Expert of the Female CEO Chapter 1827: 1824: The Scroll

Chapter 1827: Chapter 1824: The Scroll

“So powerful!” Cheng Minxue exclaid with a hint of surprise while her mouth opened slightly.

The Head of the Cheng Family observed Ling Feng, who was calm, and said, “Ling Feng, my worthy nephew, have you deciphered the secret within?”

Ling Feng nodded, “I’ve seen a bit of a clue!”

“Oh? Then please explain it to Xueer!” The Head of the Cheng Family was sowhat surprised. To perceive the clues within, one should at least possess the power of the Later Stage of the Firmant Realm, as the comprehension of the laws involved is quite profound.

Ling Feng didn’t think too much about it and directly said, “These Golden Needles, though seemingly capable of piercing the tough armor of the Rock Devouring Beast, are indeed surprising. That’s because, when forging these Golden Needles, the blacksmith used the Power of Space!”

“The Power of Space?” Cheng Minxue was a bit puzzled, “What’s that about?”

“Within these Golden Needles lies a kind of Power of Space, known as fragntation, an ability that can break space!” Ling Feng explained, “Though the Rock Devouring Beast has strong armor, there’s an extrely tiny gap within the armor, and the fragntation power of space can exploit this gap to ignore the armor’s defense and penetrate the Rock Devouring Beast’s interior.”

“That’s quite impressive!” Cheng Minxue remarked with admiration.

Ling Feng nodded, “Indeed, it is impressive. But this forging technique has a fatal flaw, which is that the Golden Needle has no room for further enhancent, as injecting the power of space simultaneously eliminated the artifact spirit’s room for growth. Therefore, these Golden Needles can only be Low-Grade Divine Artifacts, unable to birth a more powerful artifact spirit or enhance to the level of an interdiate divine artifact.”

“Of course, divine artifacts with growth potential are extrely rare!” Ling Feng said with a smile, “For experts at the Later Stage of the Firmant Realm, these Golden Needles are undoubtedly just tasteless—neither fleshy to eat nor easy to abandon! But for cultivators below the Later Stage of the Firmant Realm, they still hold great value!”

Cheng Minxue nodded, suddenly asking, “In that case, having this set of Golden Needles ans one could instantly defeat cultivators below the Later Stage of the Firmant Realm?”

“It’s not that simple!” Ling Feng replied with a bitter smile, “To activate the Golden Needle’s ability, it consus a considerable amount of cultivation power. Do you really think it’s easy to control three hundred and sixty Low-Grade Divine Artifacts simultaneously? This is why I call it tasteless; with such effort, you might as well enhance your own strength, which is fundantal!”

The Head of the Cheng Family nodded in agreent beside them. He didn’t expect Ling Feng to have such high insights into cultivation. The Power of Space is sothing only experts at the Later Stage of the Firmant Realm can comprehend, and Ling Feng, rely at the Mid Sky Realm, already has such knowledge. This ans he lacks only ti to consolidate, and his understanding of the laws already surpasses that of many others. As long as his body can withstand the cultivation power of the Later Stage of the Firmant Realm, he could naturally advance to the Later Stage of the Firmant Realm.

“What terrifying talent!” The Head of the Cheng Family thought to himself, feeling that Ling Feng was very young, having cultivated for less than a century, and achieving the Later Stage of the Firmant Realm in under a hundred years is unheard of, except for those legendary geniuses.

This also strengthened the Head of the Cheng Family’s ‘desire’ for Ling Feng. Even if Ling Feng wasn’t deeply related to their benefactor, the family would greatly benefit from investing in Ling Feng while they had the chance!

After listening to Ling Feng’s explanation, Cheng Minxue displayed a trace of disappointnt, as she was the legitimate daughter of the Cheng family. While the Golden Needles were rare, they did not et her expectations.

Nevertheless, this set of Golden Needles still caused a great sensation, with many longing to possess it, for to cultivators, a favored weapon often excited them more than a companion.

“You’ve all seen the power of this set of Golden Needles. Now, let talk about the material of this set of needles; they are made of…” Baili elaborated extensively and finally said: “The starting price of this set of Golden Needles is one million Spirit Stones, with each bid incrent no less than one hundred thousand Spirit Stones!”

As soon as Baili finished speaking, soone couldn’t wait to shout, “One million Spirit Stones!”

“A re one million Spirit Stones for this set of divine artifacts? One and a half million Spirit Stones!”

“Two million Spirit Stones!”

“Two point one million!”

…

Soon, the bidding was lively, and this set of Golden Needle divine artifacts quickly surpassed three million Spirit Stones! But as the bids increased, the number of bidders gradually decreased.

Though the artifact had its wonders, it didn’t seem appealing to experts at the Later Stage of the Firmant Realm, so the major families refrained from bidding.

When the bidding paused at three point seven million, other bidders assessed the situation and withdrew, considering this was just the first auction item, and there would certainly be better ones later, so there was no need to waste now.

Finally, the set of Golden Needles was auctioned off by the guest in room number one hundred and seven for three point seven million.

Baili flashed a smile, as the success of the first auction item marked an auspicious start!

“Next, we begin the second auction item!”

…

The subsequent auction items were impressive but failed to pique Ling Feng’s interest, and the Head of the Cheng Family remained composed and didn’t place any bids!

“This auction will sell items one by one; all one hundred and eight items—how long will that take?” Ling Feng curiously asked.

“About three days,” Cheng Minxue replied, “Of course, the final day is the climax, and those major families are here for the auction items on the last day!”

Ling Feng nodded in understanding, as for so major families, normal treasures might not even catch their eye.

While the major families held back, the minor families began their initial pursuit and skirmishes; the first few auction items fetched good prices, maintaining a lively atmosphere.

“The eighth auction item is a scroll!” Baili announced, “You all should know that within our Ancient Ruins once existed a rare genius who entered the Dao through painting, with even his partner being soone from within the painting.”

“However, one day, that genius suddenly destroyed all his lifelong paintings, including those of his partner, leading many to believe he had gone mad. Yet, he spent a whole three years creating a painting incomprehensible to everyone!”

“When that painting was born, the entire Ancient Ruins was shaken, and the genius devoted himself to the painting, becoming its artifact spirit!” Baili said slowly.

Upon hearing this, the breathing of everyone in the rooms got heavier, with even the Head of the Cheng Family showing shock and hope in his eyes. Could this scroll be the final work of that genius? How could that be!
