Alchemy Emperor of the Divine Dao

y directed a smile at Fei Zhang and the other Dragons, as well as that profligate young master, before he walked up the stairs and entered into the Great Hall.

Fei Zhang and the Dragons as well as that profligate young master all broke out in a cold sweat.
Though Ling Han had not rebuked them, how could things be settled so easily after offending a Heaven Grade alchemist?

***

With Ying Xue Yang in the lead, Ling Han arrived inside a private room.
This was also the most luxurious private room in the Spirit Treasures Pavilion.
At the moment, only Ling Han obtained such an honor.
Ordinarily, such a top-quality private room would only be used during the special auction that would be held every dozen years or so.
It was specifically reserved for the use of the Shattering Void Tier elite cultivators and other persons of similar status, such as a Heaven Grade alchemist.

Ling Han had long since become indifferent towards empty fame.
He was completely calm in the face of such special treatment, and sat down inside the private room.
The auction would begin in a moment ’s time.

Ying Xue Yang spoke to Ling Han for a few moments before begging his leave and departed.
He had also very generously given Ling Han an overdraft tab—a hundred thousand Triple Star Origin Crystals.
To be honest, the identity of a Heaven Grade alchemist could not possibly be just worth this amount, so why had the former given Ling Han such a small tab?

That was simple.
Shattering Void Tier cultivators would perhaps not take the inheritance of the Twelve Courts too seriously, but the depository of an immortal… concerned too much!

If he became the target of the Shattering Void Tier cultivators, Ling Han would definitely be fraught with grim odds.
Thus, the Spirit Treasures Pavilion would naturally not invest too much in such an unstable variable.

To be able to grant him a tab of a hundred thousand Triple Star Origin Crystals, the Spirit Treasures Pavilion was actually already being very generous.

As Ling Han sat, one transaction after another was completed.
However, there were also some auction items that were not purchased.
It was indeed worthy of being the huge auction that would only be held once every month.
There were too many items up for auction and the variety was tremendous, but not even one garnered Ling Han ’s interest.

On the other hand, such an auction would only take place once a month; thus, there could not possibly be too many valuable items up for auction.
Perhaps, after another month, there would be astonishing valuable treasures up for auction in the annual grand auction that would be held then.

”Hahaha! ” Suddenly, a bout of loud laughter rang out in the auction venue.

Ling Han had initially been sleepy; when he heard such a huge commotion, he could not help but look over.
He saw that the auctioneer was actually holding a brick.

A brick?

Ling Han felt a slight urge to laugh, but when he thought about it, the Spirit Treasures Pavilion shouldn ’t have really gone so far and used a brick to hoodwink their customers.
Thus, he began to look more closely.

This was actually not a brick.
It merely looked very much like one, but upon a closer look, one would still be able to see that its edges were not uniform.
It seemed to have initially belonged to a gigantic rock, and had now been knocked off.

One side of the brick was flat, but the other side actually had half a character, or perhaps it would be better to call it the traces of writing, though it could not clearly be seen what exactly it was.

”This brick has been through the close examination of several Master Appraisers of our Pavilion.
However, they were not able to analyze the specifics of its structure and what it is exactly used for.
The only thing that could be confirmed was that this had once belonged to a stone plaque, and is at least a hundred thousand years old.

”Furthermore, this stone brick is extremely hard, and has been obtained from a specific ancient historical site. ”

The auctioneer introduced the brick.
He seemed to be unable to find any other advantages of this brick, and thus, could only try as much as possible to brag.

Ling Han activated the Eye of Truth, but he, too, was unable to tell what was special about this brick.
There were only a few marks of writing on it, which seemed to make something in his heart feel alive.

Interesting.

”The base price is ten Origin Crystals. ” the auctioneer said, obviously not placing much hope on this auction item.

”Twenty. ”

”Fifty. ”

”A hundred. ”

Though they could not tell what this brick was used for at the moment, there was still a considerable number of people willing to buy it as a collectible because it was at least a hundred thousand years old.

”A thousand, ” Ling Han declared.
Without specifying the grade of Origin Crystals, it was understood that the bid was in Single Star Origin Crystals.
For Ling Han, Single Star Origin Crystals were really not considered as much money.

”Two thousand. ” Another person made a competing bid.
The voice that spoke sounded a bit familiar.
