Chapter 1163: Chapter 1029: Success

The divine text on the umbrella’s canopy is somewhat faint, but it can’t escape the Supreme’s eyes.

The auctioneer obscured most of the divine text, yet Qu Jianlei still guessed what it was.

However, the auctioneer’s introduction was somewhat off the mark.

He first emphasized that although the umbrella is damaged, it can still be used, and its defensive effect is not bad.

Secondly, it’s about the value of the divine text, the organizer tends to believe it is a technique concerning defense.

Qu Jianlei couldn’t help but shake his head upon hearing this: not knowing Divine Land text results in this level of appraisal!

The engraving on the medicine bottle is a pill formula, and on the defensive spiritual artifact is a defense technique?

The starting price for this damaged Dharma artifact is nine billion, slightly lower than that of the magic robe.

Anyway, involving divine text, the transaction price won’t be bad, and the price quickly rose to twenty billion.

But by then, there were considerably fewer bidders—the Dharma artifact is usable, but ultimately it is damaged.

As for the presence of divine text? Come on, the divine text everyone saw today is really too much.

Qu Jianlei noticed this change and decisively raised the bid, increasing it from twenty-one billion to twenty-five billion.

The auctioneer, seeing this, also got excited, ”The guest from room 112 has bid twenty-five billion, it is twenty-five billion!”

”An instant increase of four billion—is it possible that there are some unknown secrets on this umbrella?”

He said this purely as an auction strategy, bluffing everyone to bid, not really confirming any secrets.

Anyway, a one-time increase of four billion shows a determined heart, if there weren’t some reasons, wouldn’t others believe it?

No matter what, Qu Jianlei’s offer hadn’t lasted ten seconds when someone else bid, ”Twenty-six billion!”

The person who bid wasn’t one of the previous participants, but a VIP bidding for this item for the first time.

The price was instantly raised to twenty-six billion, and the recent bidders were actually all newcomers.

This situation caused some confusion among other bidders.

The auctioneer flaunted for a while, found no one bidding below, and could only announce, ”Half-minute countdown, the countdown begins!”

”Twenty-six billion for the first time, twenty-six billion for the first time... VIPs, is there anyone else bidding?”

When he called out ”second time,” Qu Jianlei finally made a move, ”Thirty billion!”

It’s not that he wanted to throw money around, he just had to use his limited funds wisely.

After two consecutive substantial raises, if it couldn’t deter the opponent, he could only opt to give up.

The Nutrient Injection also noticed his change, ”You have a determined heart?”

He openly acknowledged, seeing no need to hide, and indicated his willingness to help.

But this time, he didn’t need help, the person who bid twenty-six billion didn’t bid again.

Qu Jianlei was then stunned to discover that he actually won the auction!

Thirty billion consumed most of his fortune, and if there were no surprises next, he’d only be a spectator.

But Qu Jianlei felt it was worth it, at least he got one item, it wasn’t a wasted trip.

The Nutrient Injection looked at him, hesitating to speak, opened his mouth several times, but ultimately stayed silent.

Qu Jianlei knew what he was thinking, proactively stated, ”It’s not a defense technique on top, but a body technique.”

”We’ve researched this body technique for many years, just one step away from breakthrough.”

He couldn’t limit all the time spent deciphering divine text to just one or two years, otherwise it would seem too deliberate.

”Just one step away?” The Nutrient Injection’s eyes lit up again, ”Success is imminent?”

Qu Jianlei nodded, said nothing further.

Yet the Nutrient Injection continued asking, ”Can you say what body technique is it? Or, which attribute does it belong to?”

Qu Jianlei glanced at him, ”Your question is a bit much... Suitable for all attributes.”

”Wow, really?” The Nutrient Injection didn’t care about the term ”a bit much,” ”No wonder it’s the Divine Text System!”

Many techniques within the Divine Text System don’t have attribute restrictions, something the Awakened System has long envied.

Then he was stunned again, ”Could it be related to Instant Flash?”

Hearing this, Qu Jianlei was dumbfounded, ”You actually... know Instant Flash?”

”That’s nothing, right?” The Nutrient Injection thought he was overreacting, ”It used to be known in the Imperial, just was lost.”

Lost... Qu Jianlei was again speechless, what era is it now? There are many ways to record, aren’t there?

Since it appeared, he wouldn’t attract too much attention, ”It really is Instant Flash.”

Why did he bid one more time, fighting to win the item? In the end, he needed it.

For him today, for long-distance travel, there’s teleportation, even further there’s space hopping—but for short distances... it’s frustrating!

Especially on a planet, he’s already reached Golden Core, but tens of kilometers still require personal travel.

For hundreds of kilometers, he might even need to use aircraft... Does that fit the Golden Core’s stature?

Besides using his legs to cover tens of kilometers, the time would exceed a minute.

A minute doesn’t count for much, but in a battle, every second is incredibly precious.

Qu Jianlei had been pondering for a long time, what method should this Instant Flash be achieved through?

But unfortunately, he always had no clue, and he was getting used to it.

Other people’s Golden Core could travel instantly, covering hundreds of kilometers with ease, while I chose to fly bit by bit?

Anyway, this Instant Flash technique truly is a melee weapon, also very useful for escaping.

The main point is that within the Imperial range, no one else has it!

”For this... thirty billion is really worth it!” The Nutrient Injection gave a thumbs up, ”It can totally become a team feature!” ℯℯ𝑙.

”Team feature?” Qu Jianlei frowned; he hadn’t really thought in that direction.

He glanced at the Nutrient Injection, ”I was even thinking, perhaps you might want to purchase our research results again.”

”There’s no need for that,” the Nutrient Injection shook his head, ”If you really want to sell it, three hundred billion to sell it to me outright!”

Buying for thirty billion and selling for three hundred billion, a tenfold profit with one move; his sincerity could not be considered lacking.

However, considering the other party’s organization had previously invested quite a bit of manpower and resources in research, the cost couldn’t be just thirty billion.

On the other hand, Instant Flash does not involve elemental attributes, so it’s just a skill of energy application.

It’s merely like a piece of window paper; those who don’t understand truly don’t, but once it’s pierced, it’s nothing much.

Teaching this kind of thing out, the difficulty of keeping it confidential is very high; if others tweak it a bit, it becomes hard to pursue.

So the Nutrient Injection wanting to buy it outright is really not to take advantage, but for ease of management.

”No need,” Qu Jianlei shook his head.

He could figure out that the opponent’s conditions had changed for a reason—most likely still one of those difficult-to-articulate ones.

He’s never been someone to make things difficult for others, ”I can digest thirty billion myself; today hasn’t been a wasted trip.”

To be honest, at this moment, he did feel a bit relieved that he hadn’t spent the money at an outside auction house.

Otherwise, for just this deal, he might not have dared to bid, let alone possibly scared off the opponent.

”If you want to learn, I can teach you individually, but if you spread it outside... then you can’t blame me for being rude.”

He really didn’t mind passing it on to the Nutrient Injection; after all, without their help, he wouldn’t even have gotten into this auction!

With his information channels, he wouldn’t even have had the chance to receive news of the auction.

He and his team have been sticking to cautious development for years, basically disregarding what happens outside!

It’s for this reason that the Nutrient Injection profiting with Julia and another Supreme, he thinks it’s entirely justified.

After all, they’ve also helped him deal with loose ends.

Just now, when someone wanted to snatch the invitation, the Nutrient Injection immediately brought out people to resolve it.

In Qu Jianlei’s opinion, this is indeed a responsibility for the Nutrient Injection to bear—it’s proper to give a complete favor.

In fact, if he had taken action himself, he’s not sure to what extent would be most fitting, hard to grasp the nuances.

Regardless, the fact that they could decisively take action when responsible is a favor he acknowledges.

Since that’s the case, it’s only appropriate for him to pass on the Instant Flash Skill to them; no need to mention money.

”I certainly won’t spread it around,” the Nutrient Injection patted his chest, ”That’s not the way of friends!”

At this moment, someone knocked on the door, and it was the concierge bringing two Supremes, delivering the tattered Wooden Umbrella.

”Honored guest, please inspect it, and this... the payment is settled, no problem, right?”

In such a large auction setting, normally there’s no need for a hand-to-hand transaction—everyone attending is someone with status and can’t afford to lose face!

However, in the world of the Awakened, things are really different; there’s always someone who thinks they’re above it, holding onto some lucky thoughts.

So delivering goods to the door while collecting payment is perfectly reasonable.

Qu Jianlei directly took out three hundred bundles of Silver Notes, causing the concierge taking the money to twitch their mouth a bit.

There are indeed VIPs who carry large sums of cash, but paying like this still leaves people somewhat shocked.

Counting the cash on the spot is impossible; a proper respect for guests who can spend so much money is necessary.

After they left, Qu Jianlei picked up the worn-out Wooden Umbrella and examined it carefully.

Sure enough, it’s the Instant Flash Body Technique, and it even detailed how to use it in conjunction with this umbrella.

The umbrella is for defense, but carrying it while moving requires maintaining an elegant posture.

Qu Jianlei could hypothesize that the original owner of the umbrella might have been a Kun Cultivator; generally, big men seldom care about this.

Anyway, one can easily imagine that holding an umbrella and using Instant Flash would give an immortal-like aura.

It’s a pity that the umbrella is now very worn out, the immortal aura is out of the question, and using Instant Flash with the umbrella would only appear incongruous.

What Qu Jianlei is more concerned about is whether he can achieve Instant Flash without the umbrella.

Based on the text description, it should be feasible; at least these related ideas solved many of his doubts.

As for whether it works in the end, he must find a spacious place to try it out.

Additionally, it’s also necessary to verify how much defensive capability this umbrella has left.
