Chapter 263 - Heading Out (1/2)
Bai Xue peeked her head out of Wang Ling's clothes and then began to salivate as she stared at the l.u.s.trous gem known as an Immortal Core.
”Like a gleaming diamond that had been bathed with qi for millions of years, a grand treasure that appears after the death of an Immortal. A treasure that is said to have the ability to turn a Mortal into a Celestial. The treasure that existed in this era alone, the core of an Immortal's Spirit, the Immortal Core. This an item that had not appeared in the Realm for almost a thousand years, whoever can take this home will once again be blessed with an expert!” The old man roused the emotions of the bidders and as the emotions peaked he announced, ”The bid shall start at 500,000,000 Stellar Stones!”
Bai Xue looked at Wang Ling and then said with a smile on her face, ”If we can get that, even if we share we will be able to reach Celestial King in a single jump! Ling! We must get that, we can reach all new heights in such a fast pace, we will be able to return to our peaks!”
Bai Xue lost her rationality in face of such a treasure. Her bloodline was boiling, she was salivating in front of the Immortal Core and she cared not what she looked like as she begged Wang Ling for the item to be bought.
But Wang Ling looked at her and shook his head, ”We can't take that, we can't bet and take the attention to us else they will know I am here. Also… we don't have enough funds to actually get that thing.”
For the longest time, Wang Ling had been able to get what he want because he had stellar stones that numbered at billions. But right now he only has three billion worth of funds and the bid for the Immortal Core had already reached 5 Billion in a matter of minutes.
He had not felt such hopelessness in terms of money for the longest time now and it was a pretty shitty feeling, he can tell. Bai Xue heard him and slowly, she managed to control the overflowing emotion that surged from her bloodline.
She took in a deep breath and then sighed at the sight of a treasure disappearing right before her eyes. She had to give up, the bid had become too high to begin with so Wang Ling can't do anything about it.
But a ray of hope appeared because the one who managed to snatch the treasure from the hands of the Qin Clan. Qin Ao's voice reverberated as he celebrated on getting the Immortal Core. He had spent a total of 20,000,000,000 Stellar Stones just to get this treasure but he still sees it as little in face of what he can get from it.
The Qin Clan would surely give the core to him, he was the genius only second to the Fox of the Wang Family after all. He was the strongest of the younger generation and if he can become a Celestial sooner then he will be able to attract the eyes of the Commanders of the Origin World.
If he is lucky, Qin Ao might even become a disciple of a General or someone even higher. His hopes were high and surely his family is too. The Qin Family has no one backing them up from the Origin World. If they can get Qin Ao to step in there with his talents then the Qin Clan will prosper like never before.
Wang Ling watched this and stood up, he had a smile on his face when he head out of the Auction House. The two treasures were auctioned out without him knowing what kind of treasure they were.
Wang Ling wasted no time and headed out. As soon as he step out of the Auction House he directly headed for an alley and said, ”Shadow, report.”
