Chapter 1040: The Last Piece

ht the complicated look in his eyes—he was certain that Lin Ming Dong must have a relationship with Lotus Island's leader."Senior Lin is generous, taking out your most precious treasure!" Gu Dongchen...Chapter 1040: The Last One

The elder from Azure Moon Sacred Realm came forward. Before he could break the mystic ice, Feng Quan stopped him.

"Can I do it myself" Feng Quan was a powerhouse from the Heaven Realm, so he had no problem breaking this mystic ice. He thought that there was a higher chance of finding valuable items by doing so.

"Of course you can!" The elder was delighted; breaking the mystic ice cost a lot of power for him. With each mystic ice he broke, he felt like aging several years.

Feng Quan's fingertips suddenly released a white glow that entered the black tiger mystic ice. The strong external force triggered the mystic ice, which instantly turned into a mass of ice crystals.

Feng Quan hurriedly searched through the ice crystals, widening his eyes and showing a panicked expression. But no matter how much they searched, nothing could be found within; this angered him and made his heart boil with frustration. He wished he could destroy the entire auction site.

He realized that he had been fooled. Azure Moon Sacred Realm managed to obtain such peculiar mystic ice but chose not to break it themselves instead opting for an auction, clearly intending to prey on others.

Feng Quan grunted angrily and returned to the private room, feeling unsatisfied after giving away so many crystal stones. However, Azure Moon Sacred Realm also took significant risks, like the Void Heaven Stone incident before.

He managed to make another 14,000 billion crystal stones for Azure Moon Sacred Realm, which brought relief to their high-level officials.

The auction host announced that there were fifteen peculiar mystic ice pieces. The following ones had shapes and various colors, making them much more unique compared to the mystic ice from Golden Sun Tower. It was hard to understand why these empty mystic ice pieces could grow so beautifully, like the White Lotus Mystic Ice before.

In the next mystic ice auction, Shen Xiang only participated a few times, creating mist to make others believe it was by chance. He then stopped participating because he couldn't see anything valuable inside the mystic ice.

Soon, it was time for the last piece. The previous mystic ice pieces had been sold at low prices, with the highest being 5 trillion crystal stones. No valuable items appeared either, and the guests in the private rooms didn't add any more bids once their price surpassed 3 trillion crystal stones.

Fourteen pieces of mystic ice were sold, with only the Void Heaven Stone appearing among them. The other mystic ice pieces were empty inside, and despite several beautifully unique ones that could be seen as they were, the parts still remained empty. Now, people understood that more attractive mystic ice didn't contain valuable items; previous mystic ice pieces with悟道石 and Void Heaven Stone had unpleasant appearances.

Finally, the last piece came. However, everyone's enthusiasm was low; it seemed unlikely to sell well.

A large mystic ice piece was brought up; it was as big as a bed, oval-shaped, completely black. However, there were many light spots on its surface that made it resemble a star map, as the lights seemed to form patterns similar to those seen in the night sky.

There were several light spots distributed across it, and upon closer inspection, people could see that the lights formed a good star formation. This mystic ice seemed like a star map, very magical and intriguing to many people, though its appearance was good. Despite this, everyone considered that the likelihood of valuable items inside such ice might be low.

"The starting price is 5 trillion crystal stones!" The host announced, making many people lose interest. If the competition started, it might reach a billion price mark, and considering previous examples, people were now rationalizing their judgments based on the appearance rather than blindly losing themselves to it!

“Senior, take it!” Shen Xiang quickly noticed something peculiar through his混沌神眼 and informed White Tiger.

White Tiger immediately bid: “501 billion!”

There were incidents where two major powers lost billions of crystal stones, so they usually bid around several billion after that. With the high starting price now, many people were already beyond their limits.

“Is there no more bidding This is your last chance. If this ice turns completely black and suddenly, you won't be able to tell if the stars on it are real or not.” The host thought the price was too low, so he tried to hype it up.

“What's the big deal Are you suggesting there might be real valuable items inside this ice And can you confirm it's worth that price”

“It might look good, but considering those beautiful mystic ice pieces before with no valuable items inside, I doubt this ice is worth it.”

Many people now decided to avoid buying beautiful mystic ice after realizing that such pieces usually didn't contain valuable items. Previous experiences taught them that pleasant-looking mystic ice was often empty inside.

“5 trillion crystal stones can buy many ordinary mystic ice pieces. It's just luck either way, so it might be better to use these mystic ice pieces and see if they're as good as those fancy ones.”

Many people agreed, hearing of the current trend in selling mystic ice for profit across Frost Cold Ancient Domain. Many couldn't find anything valuable inside the ice, so they preferred selling them instead of risking their own luck.

“Sold!” The host sighed inwardly as he announced it.

White Tiger immediately moved forward, surprised by how easily he won. He felt excited because he knew there was definitely something inside! Although his strength was impressive, experiencing such pleasure in the secular world meant a lot to him, especially when he shared it with Shen Xiang, the master of deception.

White Tiger had many crystal stones too. After paying, he hurriedly said, "Don't break it yet. I want to see it first; who knows if we'll ever see something so magical again."

White Tiger was sincere. He touched the light spots on the mystic ice that resembled stars, and upon closer inspection, he found nothing special besides the slightly dazzling light rays.

People thought that Azure Moon Sacred Realm must have obtained many such peculiar mystic ice pieces, unable to find good items inside and choosing to sell them instead. This realization didn't make previous buyers very happy.

“Mm, now we can break it!” White Tiger stepped back. He didn't want to show off his strength, so he let the elder from Azure Moon Sacred Realm break it.

The elder deeply inhaled, concentrating his power into his fingertips to form a strong flame there.

His fingertips lightly tapped the large black mystic ice, precisely on a formation emitting faint blue light. The entire mystic ice instantly shattered into pieces as the elder's power was unleashed.

A sudden "嘩" sound echoed as the ice crystal pieces dispersed. Three black beads were seen emitting terrifying black energy, revealing that valuable items had appeared inside the mystic ice!looked at the precious jade blade, her eyes didn’t leave it from sight."Senior Brother even owes divine money to me, I’ll look for him soon and get what’s owed. I’m planning on buying a divine sword,"...
