Chapter 656

Everyone looked around.

The princess, deeply favored by the Emperor, was well-known throughout the imperial city, and entered the Bone Gu Auction House accompanied by several attendants.

"Little guy, let's go too."

Fang Yu brought Shi Hao into the auction house; this time, he still did not use the ancient dragon cub as a mount—the ancient dragon cub was diligently cultivating inside the Chaos Tower.

The ancient dragon, at birth, already reached the 5th Stage of Divine Abilities, Heavenly Man Realm, possessing fifty million jin of strength, and needed proper growth and mastery of many divine abilities; if it could cultivate seventy or eighty such abilities and enter the 6th Stage of Divine Abilities, Return to Oneness Realm, that would also be possible.

Thus, this little cub had not been pulled out by Fang Yu to serve as a mount.

Though lacking an ancient dragon as a mount, Fang Yu still earned the respect of everyone at the auction, for when he walked in, it was as if a heavenly furnace of heaven and earth rolled forward—everyone could see Fang Yu was not to be trifled with, an absolute powerhouse.

Thus, the auction attendees bowed respectfully to Fang Yu and immediately invited him into the VIP room.

"Who is that man? I've never seen him before?"

"I don't know, but he's definitely a powerhouse—his vital energy is terrifying, like a blazing sun, capable of evaporating a person."

"I wonder what world this prodigy comes from? Could he be an outlandish prodigy? These days, the seas have been turbulent—the Peng Nest has emerged, shaking countless experts, even drawing in experts from beyond the realms!"

"Indeed, even the prodigies from the Deep Mountains have gone to the Peng Nest—who will claim the Peng's Divine Art?"

"No one knows. Rumor has it the battles there are brutal—even Wang Hou might perish. No one knows who will ultimately claim the Peng's Divine Art."

Some people were discussing.

Fang Yu and the little guy had already seated themselves in the VIP room.

Whether others would obtain the Peng's Divine Art was unknown, but here were two who already had.

While others were still fighting for it, they had already returned.

Fang Yu believed the Peng Nest could still be contested for two or three more years, and perhaps several Zunzhe would die there.

But by then, he would have long returned to the Eternal Life Realm.

While he pondered this, more people arrived at the auction; with the entrance of a red-clad woman, the auction officially began.

The first item auctioned was a bone, suspected to be heavenly bone, but incomplete, lacking runes, not a magic treasure—yet extremely hard; auction house members had struck it with supreme magic treasures and even subjected it to furnace refining, yet it remained unscathed, hence put up for auction.

This description bore a striking resemblance to fragments of the World Tree from the Eternal Life Realm—those fragments shared similar properties: no runes, not magic treasures, yet unbreakable by any means.

Fang Yu examined the bone, uninterested; for this was the Perfect World, not the Eternal Life Realm. In the Eternal Life Realm, such an object would have warranted heavy spending—but Fang Yu doubted this supposedly unbreakable bone truly couldn't be shattered; with his Great Chaos Thunder Sword or by summoning the Peng's supreme treasure, Tianhuang, he could still smash it.

To him, it held no use.

Shi Hao, however, looked delighted, for he sensed this bone was made of the same material as the one inscribed with the Original True Explanation—there could be no mistake.

Then it was worth bidding for.

"I offer one hundred Jingbi."

Someone bid.

"I offer five hundred Jingbi."

"I offer one thousand Jingbi."

Though lacking runes, this unique material still drew much interest, and bidding began.

Jingbi was a type of jade, infused with the essence of heaven and earth, usable for cultivation.

In the mortal world, gold and silver held no value for cultivators; thus, the Cultivation World had its own currency: Jingbi.

"How much is this elixir worth?"

Shi Hao felt embarrassed—he realized he had no Jingbi, only one hundred Chunyang Elixirs, gifts from his Master.

He took out one Chunyang Elixir and asked the serving girl beside him.

The girl felt the terrifying Chunyang energy radiating from the elixir, her face filled with shock. "Impossible to judge—but this elixir contains unimaginable energy, and it's intensely blazing. I'll go fetch one of our senior experts!"

The girl hurried out and soon returned with an elder; when the elder saw the Chunyang Elixir in Shi Hao's hand, his face showed utter astonishment.

"How could such a supreme treasure exist in heaven and earth? Heaven! What divine elixir is this? Such fierce Xu Yuan Qi—unimaginable! This energy seems immensely beneficial to the physical body. Are you truly going to auction this divine elixir? I can arrange it immediately—how about this: you may purchase anything you wish now, and after we auction this elixir, we'll return the remainder to you?"

The elder held the Chunyang Elixir in his hands, gazing left and right, as if he could not bear to let it go.

He was a cultivator of considerable realm, and naturally recognized that though the elixir appeared tiny, it was surrounded by swirling clusters of blazing Xu Yuan Qi, with profound qi flowing across its surface.

The elder even felt that merely contemplating this elixir might allow him to comprehend certain truths of pure yang in heaven and earth.

Yes—pure yang principles.

This tiny elixir truly revealed boundless pure yang principles—pure yang far exceeding the sun by countless degrees.

If he could replicate the condensation method of this elixir to cultivate his own body, he could directly ascend to far higher realms.

"Divine elixir—truly a divine elixir!"
