Chapter 188 The Gold of Life (Part Two)
After Miguel finished speaking, he paused slightly before continuing, "As for the Ten Thousand Year Ice Marrow, its audience is a little smaller, but it is a very important treasure for ice and snow type soul masters and even soul beasts!"
Based on what I know, a lowly ice silkworm managed to raise its cultivation level to a million years by absorbing ten-thousand-year-old ice marrow. However, because its race was so weak, its combat power was very poor.
Forget about 100,000-year-old soul beasts; he couldn't even defeat 10,000-year-old soul beasts. However, he was considered an exceptionally outstanding member of the Ice Silkworm clan, considering that even thousand-year-old Ice Silkworms were extremely rare! In a sense, he had broken the shackles of his bloodline.
Hearing Miguel's explanation, Daglas couldn't help but be tempted, because Miguel hadn't kept his voice down from Salas when he spoke, so Salas had overheard their conversation.
After Salas learned the importance of this ore, all his doubts vanished, and he became even more determined to obtain it, even if he didn't have enough gold soul coins to buy soul bones later!
As time went by, the price of the ore gradually increased, even exceeding Ning Fengzhi's budget, causing Ning Fengzhi's face to darken.
"Uncle Bone, do you think Salas knew this ore was a treasure, which is why he was bidding so aggressively?"
Bone Douluo shook his head upon hearing Ning Fengzhi's question: "Fengzhi, I think there are two possibilities. The first is that the Spirit Hall has existed for a long time, and perhaps its archives contain information about the uses of this ore. However, this possibility is very small, after all, Salas is not a person who likes to read at all!"
As for the second possibility, Salas simply didn't know that the ore was a treasure. He just thought it looked nice and wanted to buy it to collect or give as a gift.
We just happened to interfere and drive the price up. Fengzhi, you should remember that Salas paused for quite a while before continuing to participate in the auction.
Therefore, I suspect that the value of this ore must have already exceeded Salas's expectations at that time, but he simply didn't want us to obtain it easily.
Hearing Bone Douluo's analysis, Ning Fengzhi paused for a moment before speaking, "Uncle Bone, are you saying that Salas doesn't want it anymore, and is only raising the price like crazy to trick us?"
"It is indeed possible, and the possibility is very high!"
Upon hearing Bone Douluo's words, Ning Fengzhi began to weigh the pros and cons. If he continued to raise the price, although he would eventually obtain the treasure, he might not have enough money to buy the coveted soul bone. However, he was extremely unwilling to give up the ore to the Spirit Hall!
"Uncle Bone, do you think we should keep raising the price?"
"Feng Zhi, I suggest we give up on this ore. After all, we don't know its specific uses, so buying it would be a waste. We'd be better off using the money to buy a soul bone!"
After hearing Bone Douluo's words, Ning Fengzhi thought for a moment and then said, "Since we've decided not to buy it, we can't let the Spirit Hall easily buy it!"
"Fengzhi, just keep that in mind, but be careful not to overdo it!"
"Of course I know that."
After making his decision, Ning Fengzhi's pace of offering prices slowed down considerably, as if he wanted it but also didn't. This behavior disgusted Salas to no end.
"Your Highness, do you think Ning Fengzhi doesn't want it anymore?"
"The price of this ore has probably exceeded Ning Fengzhi's expectations, so there's a good chance he doesn't want it. He just doesn't want us to get it so easily!"
After hearing Miguel's words, Salas wanted nothing more than to drag Ning Fengzhi out and beat him up, after all, his actions were just too disgusting!
