Chapter 530: Bird Man
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
The weapon with a basic pattern of Pangu was extremely ferocious. It was announced that it had been nurtured by a bloodthirsty warrior who had used it to kill countless vicious and giant beasts for thirty years. This had led to it gaining nine patterns, which means that it was extremely close to a sage level weapon. It would become such once it reached twelve patterns.
In any case, the alien races participating in the auction hadn’t expected that the first item auctioned by Pangu would surprisingly be such a precious weapon.
Ordinary artifact, sage artifact, true artifact!
It was only a nine-patterned weapon, so it was still some distance away from the level of a twelve-patterned sage weapon, let alone Pangu True Armor which was a supreme treasure of true grade.
But… everyone also knew that it was an absolutely extraordinary nine-patterned weapon. It had even been wielded by a high level Pangu warrior who had nurtured it with his blood and sweat for thirty years. Thus, once the weapon was put before the crowd, it immediately attracted the attention of many alien races.
After all, everyone in the world knew that apart from possessing formidable bloodline, Pangu were also famed for their patterned weapons.
Regardless of whatever was said, the weapon for auction was a lot more formidable than the weapons of their own people.
The price of thirty thousand sacred pangu coins was definitely not high. In fact, for human cultivators, it was an extremely low price.
Even a great flux expert could purchase it at such a price if they had saved up some money.
According to the exchange rate formulated by the Pangu, thirty thousand sacred pangu coins were equivalent to thirty thousand tons of grain.
A family of ten or more people from the servant or civilian class might find it hard to pay for thirty thousand tons of grain, but human cultivators wouldn’t be troubled by such a price.
Sure enough, once the nine patterned weapon appeared, it instantly attracted the bids of countless people. Two Pangu women came forward while laboriously bringing the 1.8 m long blade flickering with cold light.
The next instant, the majority of guests who had originally came for Pangu True Armor couldn’t help but start bidding, hoping to obtain the rarely seen weapon.
Thirty-five thousand sacred pangu coins, fifty thousand sacred pangu coins, seventy thousand, one hundred thirty thousand, one hundred ninety thousand, three hundred sixty thousand, and seven hundred eighty thousand.
Within the time it takes for a joss stick to burn, the price of the weapon nourished by a high level Pangu warrior rose more than ten times. The bidding price swiftly reached seventy eight thousand.
But even the astronomical price after the ten fold increase couldn’t stop the alien races from bidding. They continued to raise their paddles one after another, attempting to snatch the weapon.
Li Yunmu’s heart rate also increased a few times, and he almost couldn’t resist joining the competition. After all, even if he didn’t need this weapon, he could give it to his followers upon his return. This weapon would definitely increase their destructive power by a few notches.
And even if it wasn’t useful to his followers, he could give it to the most powerful ape god which would greatly increase its strength. But after he thought about it, he chose to suppress the urge to join.
In the end, he needed all his resources to get his hands on Pangu True Armor.
Finally, a person from the Sound race became the final winner and won the Pangu blade for the price of one million eighty thousand sacred pangu coins.
“Oh, I hadn’t expected people from Sound to have also come.”
When Wang Ren saw this scene, his expression became slightly ugly.
“Is there some problem with them?”
In terms of knowledge about alien races of the Origin World, Li Yunmu was far surpassed by Wang Ren, this ordinary human.
After all, once Wang Ren joined Pangu City as a teacher to instruct the young ones, his life had transformed. He received preferential treatment and special privilege while also gaining access to the library of the institute. There, he could examine many records hoarded by the Pangu about the history of the Origin World.
Li Yunmu saw Wang Ren, who was only an ordinary person among humans, in a new light.
According to the large amount of data collected in the system’s database, Sound people didn’t possess eye-catching strength among the more than thousand races in the Origin World. In fact, they were even in the lower layer.
Regardless of whether it was their comprehensive or individual strength, both of them were extremely weak. Yet Wang Ren acted rather apprehensive of this cace, which astonished Li Yunmu.
“Benefactor might not know this, but these people can manufacture musical instruments with the best sound quality, even if they don’t possess great strength. As long the instrument is manufactured by them, it would fetch an astronomical price in any corner of the world. That is why it could be said that they are walking treasuries. They are extremely wealthy…”
While explaining it, Wang Ren sighed deeply.
As if influenced, Li Yunmu’s gaze fell on the few Sound clansmen standing by the side of the Pangu Blade. After a careful observation, his brows creased.
At first glance, the two women fit perfectly with the data gathered by the system; they were extremely weak.
There couldn’t be any comparison with the formidable Pangu, for the two women from Sound weren’t much stronger than ordinary humans. Even with the system’s secret scan, Li Yunmu still found it hard to believe that neither of them possessed any cultivation.
Their individual strength was tantamount to a physical flux expert possessing a strength of fifteen oxen.
Li Yunmu was instantly amazed by it. God only knew how a race which was extremely weak but adept at excavating wealth manage to exist without trouble among the countless lifeforms in the Origin World.
Wang Ren seemed to have already sensed Li Yunmu’s suspicion, for he added, “Benefactor mustn’t think of them as someone weak and easily bullied. In reality, there aren’t many who would dare to touch them. Even the hosts of this auction Pangu may not be brave enough to covet their wealth.”
“Eh? Why is that?”
Li Yunmu’s brows jumped.
“It’s very simple—they are one of the alien races given asylum by the Deus. As long as a person’s brain isn’t filled with melon seeds, they won’t think about laying a hand on Sound people. Benefactor should pay attention to that bird man standing near one of the women,” Wang Ren said softly.
The presence of that alien race person was extremely mediocre. If Wang Ren hadn’t pointed him out, Li Yunmu might’ve ignored him completely.
But because of this exact reason, Li Yunmu suddenly let out a deep sigh. It was truly strange that he had completely ignored this bird man previously.
