Merging with Demon Spirits

Chapter 498: Chapter 363: Vengeance Must Be Repaid

Despite a minor interruption, the auction continued in an orderly manner.

After the Spirit Ascending Fruit, Demon Spirits with diamond-level soul skills began to appear, immediately drawing the attention of major powers.

With the impending fusion of the Other-dimensional Space Gate, facing the forthcoming crisis, strength is fundamental, causing the price of Demon Spirits to soar.

Generally, Demon Spirits with diamond-level soul skills are priced around seven to eight hundred million.

But now, the starting price for such a Demon Spirit is already one billion, with final prices reaching around two billion, nearly tripling.

”Crazy.”

Dong Xiuxian said with a bitter smile, the money he brought wasn’t even enough to buy a Demon Spirit with a diamond-level soul skill.

This money depreciates too severely; knowing this, it would have been better to spend it earlier.

Ten Demon Spirits appeared consecutively, all with diamond-level soul skills, but Lin Feng did not bid.

Currently, the Dragon Fish is only at the Five Tier, having just absorbed the ’Fat Hedgehog’ soul skill, and has reached the limit of five soul skills.

Even if the Spirit Ascending Fruit could evolve the Dragon Fish by one tier, it could only absorb one more soul skill.

The usual diamond-level soul skills no longer interest Lin Feng; he desires a divine-level soul skill.

Unfortunately, none appeared.

As for Nightmare’s soul skill, Lin Feng is not considering it. Once he enters the Land of Chaos, there will be various alien race talents’ Lifebound Demon Spirits for him to choose from, so it’s not worth wasting money at this auction.

As the elegant lady introduced more items, many Demon Spirit Masters in the venue showed interest.

”The 23rd auction item, a Ninth Tier Demon Spirit, the Three-tailed Scorpion, Water Attribute, with a talent skill [Scorpion Tail Transformation], diamond-level.”

Poison Series Demon Spirits are hard to find, generally of lower tier. A Ninth Tier Poison Series Demon Spirit is rare, and its talent skill at a diamond level is even more rare.

Such Demon Spirits are difficult to come by, even at major auctions.

Xu Luofeng looked at his grandfather Xu Tianyin, whose Lifebound Demon Spirit is a Ninth Tier Flying Centipede, also a Poison Series Demon Spirit with a suitable attribute and very fitting talent skill.

”The starting price for the Three-tailed Scorpion is 1.5 billion.”

The elegant lady’s words had just fallen when Xu Tianyin raised his paddle and shouted, ”2 billion.”

The first bid, and an increase of 500 million at once, gave a perception of determination; seeing Xu Tianyin bid so aggressively, many initially interested parties smiled bitterly and shook their heads, directly giving up.

They didn’t have the strength to compete with Xu Tianyin and didn’t want to offend the Dawn Organization.

”2.1 billion.”

A lady raised her paddle; the Ninth Tier Poison Series Demon Spirit was precious and very suitable for her. Despite fearing Xu Tianyin’s strength and status, she valued this Demon Spirit more.

Xu Tianyin looked expressionlessly at the lady, continuing to raise his paddle: ”2.5 billion.”

After several rounds of bidding, the price finally reached 3.5 billion.

”3.6 billion!”

At 3.6 billion, Xu Tianyin no longer dared to increase the bid by 500 million each time.

No one raised their paddle this time, and the auction hall grew silent.

”3.6 billion once.”

”3.6 billion twice.”

The elegant lady scanned around, and seeing no one bid, lifted her small hammer to bring it down.

”4 billion.”

A soft voice sounded, causing the elegant lady’s right hand to freeze.

”Haha.”

This sudden bid increase and the familiar voice drew everyone’s attention; people’s surprised eyes turned towards the direction the voice came from, and many directly laughed—it was Lin Feng who raised the paddle.

This Demon Spirit clearly didn’t match with Lin Feng’s cultivated Dragon Fish, and the talent skill wasn’t suitable either.

Obviously, he was seeking revenge.

And at the moment the hammer was just about to fall, exacting revenge in the same manner.

Xu Tianyin looked toward Lin Feng’s position, his eyes slightly cold; he hadn’t expected Lin Feng to involve so many talents, nor did he expect Lin Feng would dare to retaliate.

He is a Peak Martial King, and Lin Feng is just a genius, one not yet grown; an unformed genius is nothing and could fall at any time.

Seeing the threat in Xu Tianyin’s eyes, Lin Feng’s expression remained unchanged.

If it were an Emperor, Lin Feng, no matter how angry, would not dare to take revenge, but a Martial King, even at the peak, is not an Emperor, not enough to make him fear.

He has Bu Zheng’s protection.

And in the Base City, even with ten guts, Xu Tianyin wouldn’t dare to make a move against him.

In the Other-dimensional Space Gate, he is even less worried.

Many noticed the threat in Xu Tianyin’s gaze but frowned without saying anything.

Regardless, Xu Tianyin is a Peak Martial King, his strength only second to an Emperor; without necessity, no one wants to clash with the Dawn Organization.

Even if someone does not fear Xu Tianyin, he has not acted or spoken, and a threatening gaze has no substantial harm.

Bu Zheng also looked toward Xu Tianyin at this time, their gazes locking, neither giving an inch. Soon, Bu Zheng shifted his gaze to Xu Luofeng, with undisguised killing intent in his eyes.

Xu Luofeng’s body trembled slightly, stiffening, with a trace of fear passing through his eyes when looking at Bu Zheng.

Xu Tianyin slightly frowned, somewhat apprehensive in his heart.

Bu Yuanlong, twenty years ago, a remarkably talented bright star, heralded as the most promising to break through to an Emperor in glory, at merely 25 years old.

If not for the ”Fish Dragon Transformation” cultivation technique, he might already be an Emperor, his strength surpassing Xu Tianyin’s.

Due to ”Fish Dragon Transformation,” Bu Yuanlong has less than two years to live, but precisely because of this, it incites fear.

Nobody knows Bu Yuanlong’s true strength today or what hidden cards he may have; they are curious but do not wish to witness it firsthand.

Because it would signify Bu Yuanlong’s final frenzy.

Growing up in an orphanage, Bu Yuanlong has no family, no wife or children, lives alone without attachments. With less than two years to live, even Kings, if it were not for significant enmity, dare not provoke him.
