Chapter 320 – Demon Corpse
After naming Whitey, Grace hugs it tightly, and the snake loves it. The snake was afraid of Dave, but it found a safe place from Grace’s warmth. After forming a bond with Whitey, Grace has learned some of its memories.
She learned that when Whitey got out of her shell, she found a lot of dead bodies, and her body absorbed the death energies around them. She had not killed anyone, but someone saw her and chased her. However, her speed was top-tier, and she ran for her life for 2 months until a strong elder personally acted to catch her.
She never killed any person, and others thought that she was the one who killed the dead people. She was living in fear in the cage, but she didn’t hide her disdain towards them because she had some knowledge about her origin due to the inheritance they have when they were born.
Grace felt pity for her, and she decided to take care of her and make her stronger so that no one could bully her again. …….. Dave ignored the snake, and he didn’t care about it as long as Grace was happy. The auction continues, and Dave bids using a lot of money without caring about the price. He has already won 10 items and spent 300 million spirit stones.
He found some precious herbs that he can use to concoct potions, so he bought them. There are also some armors, and he gave them to Jiang Chen and Grace. He even gave Roco one of the pills auctioned that can help improve their talent.
He was spending money without care, and he can easily get them back as long as he puts effort. Everyone was overwhelmed by Dave’s crazy bidding, and almost all of the items were bought by him. “Hmmp, I don’t believe that his money is endless,” Reynold said, feeling angry that Dave outbid everyone.
Reynold wanted to buy some items, but almost everything was bought by the person in room no.7. He restrained himself because he was there for a specific item.
The other people who also wanted to bid could only swallow their voices because Dave’s bidding price was so high that they were overwhelmed.
Rain was happy that her mission was going to be successful, and they had already earned a lot due to the person in room no.7, who almost doubled and tripled the price.
“And now we come to the last 5 items we had today,” Rain announced, and everyone gathered as they heard of the mysterious item to be auctioned.
Rain waved her hands, and a 3-meter ice cube appeared in front of everyone. Inside it, there was a 2-meter-tall body with 2 long horns and black wings. Its body was muscular and radiated demonic energy. Its eyes were lifeless, but everyone could feel its strength when it was alive.
“What is that?” “Terrifying!” Everyone was stunned, while some turned pale due to the terrifying energy of the corpse even though it was sealed and deceased.
Dave was stunned when he saw the corpse, and he felt that his day was fruitful with the amazing items he encountered so far. “Hehe, a demon at the True Saint level, huh?” Dave said, surprising Grace and everyone else in the room.
“What? A demon?” Jiang Chen was astonished, and Roco was afraid as it was his first time seeing a demon. Grace, on the other hand, didn’t doubt Dave and knew that he was scarier than a demon.
“This is a demon who terrorized the Garavon Domain for a thousand years. This demon killed a lot of people and destroyed many planets. When it was at its peak, it was a powerhouse at the True Saint level.”
“The demon was arrogant and suspected to be in the lineage of Demon King of Pride. It was very arrogant and challenged the patriarch because he heard that he was strong. However, he was killed by the patriarch in one move, and instead of destroying its body, the patriarch collected it as part of his collection.”
“He decided to auction it because his collection room was already full, and he treated it as trash to remove some items there.” Rain explained, leaving everyone shocked.
“Haha, as expected of the patriarch.” “Strong as ever.” Many felt admiration towards the patriarch for treating the demon’s body as junk. Dave was also stunned, but he didn’t think the patriarch’s reasons for auctioning it were simple.
The body of the demon was valuable for research purposes and many other uses. It could be especially useful for Grace. She can absorb the death energy around it, and it could greatly strengthen her cultivation due to the intense energy of a True Saint.
The gap between Imperial Saint Emperor and True Saint was huge, and it could make Grace’s cultivation directly enter Imperial Saint Lord level and surpass his cultivation if she refines it. Moreover, the body could be used by Xegron to devour it and make him even stronger than before.
Dave didn’t know the patriarch’s true purpose, but he planned to get this corpse no matter what. After seeing everyone’s reaction, Rain smiled and announced. “The starting price will be 1 billion spirit stones. You can now start bidding.” After she said that, everyone made their bids with excitement. “1.5 billion spirit stones.” “2 billion spirit stones.” “Our Harmen Family bids 3 billion spirit stones.”
Everyone was full of excitement, but they stopped talking when they heard the bid from the people in room no.2. “5 billion spirit stones. Our Fritz Family wants this corpse.”
Everyone was shocked because the Fritz Family was not from the Alexander Domain but from the Fritz Domain.
The Fritz Family was said to be on par with the Alexander Family and had many subordinate clans all around the immortal plane.
No one expected them to bid for the corpse. Dave looked at room no.2 and saw a woman wearing a veil, accompanied by five strong people.
The woman’s body was charming and could charm any man who looked at her. Even though she wore a veil, she couldn’t hide her beautiful and elegant aura, so many were sure that she was beautiful.
Dave scanned her and was stunned for a moment, but he composed himself with an amused look.
Grace noticed his expression and felt that Dave had seen something interesting, planning to ask him about it later.
“Hayss, I am so wealthy that I start throwing spirit stones in my garden just to decrease my wealth a little bit. I bid 6 billion spirit stones,” Dave’s voice could be heard as he decided to bid.
Many were stunned by his claim and didn’t know whether to laugh or feel bitter. Throwing spirit stones in the garden just to decrease his wealth? What kind of nonsense was that?
Everyone was amazed, and they didn’t expect him to be this wealthy. No one could still see the person inside room no.7, but they were sure that he was one of the tycoons.
Reynold swallowed his saliva when he heard him bid, and his men who investigated the person inside the room came back. They were nervous and sweating heavily. Reynold learned that the person inside was the son of the holy son, and he was stunned.
He treated the holy son as his rival and the one he feared in the younger generation. He didn’t expect that he will be defeated by the father and son in terms of wealth and power.
The woman in the veil was stunned and looked at room no.7.
“Tsk, that person is disrupting our plans. Let’s kill him later and snatch the corpse.” The woman said with arrogance, and the five men who were releasing the power of Imperial Saint King nodded, hiding their killing intent.
