Chapter 23 Ten Thousand Years of Whale Glue
Just when Lin Xiao was still immersed in the joy of bidding for the golden plate crystal, the host's voice sounded again, and this time the content made his heart beat faster.
"The next item - Ten Thousand Years of Whale Glue!"
Then the host began to introduce it loudly.
"I believe everyone knows the effect of whale glue, so I won't go into details.
And this time, the auction is two extremely rare Ten Thousand Years of Whale Glue! One is 30,000 years old, and the other is as high as 50,000 years old!
Its effect is naturally more powerful than ordinary hundred-year and thousand-year whale glue. The starting price is 10,000 gold soul coins, and each bid must not be less than 1,000 gold soul coins!"
When Lin Xiao heard the four words "Ten Thousand Years of Whale Glue", he could no longer hide his excitement.
Since he got a small piece of
hundred-year whale glue last time, he has also inquired many times, but he has never found any news about whale glue.
After all, the strength of sea soul beasts is not weak, and no one will hunt them specifically for this "aphrodisiac". Therefore,
Ten Thousand Years of Whale Glue is extremely rare on the mainland. Even if it occasionally appears, it is mostly circulated among nobles, and ordinary people can hardly get in touch with it.
At this moment, the atmosphere in the auction hall was instantly ignited. Especially those older nobles, after hearing the words "ten thousand year whale glue", their eyes shone with fiery light.
Once the bidding started, the price rose rapidly.
"Fifteen thousand gold soul coins!"
"Twenty thousand!"
"Thirty thousand!" A middle-aged man in gorgeous clothes directly raised the price by ten thousand, obviously determined to win.
Lin Xiao sat in the VIP room and calmly observed the bidding in the field. He knew that the value of these two pieces of ten thousand year whale glue was far more than that.
"Fifty thousand gold soul coins!" Lin Xiao finally raised his card.
Since the VIP room was extremely private, everyone didn't know that the person bidding with them was an eight-year-old child.
So there was no surprise, but there was an uproar in the field. Fifty thousand gold soul coins was already a large number, and many nobles began to hesitate.
However, there were still some people who were unwilling to give up.
"Fifty-five thousand!" The middle-aged man in gorgeous clothes raised the price again.
"Sixty thousand!" Lin Xiao followed without hesitation.
"Seventy thousand!"
"Eighty thousand!" Lin Xiao also directly raised the price by ten thousand again, with the momentum of winning.
This time, the venue finally quieted down.
Eighty thousand gold soul coins have exceeded the psychological expectations of most people. Even those wealthy nobles have to weigh the pros and cons.
The host looked around the audience and saw that no one raised the price again, so he knocked down the auction hammer.
"Eighty thousand gold soul coins, deal! Congratulations to the gentleman in the VIP room!"
Lin Xiao had never thought that he would have such a harvest on the first day of the auction. He couldn't help but look forward to what he could find later!
But the reality is cruel. The next auction items are either what Lin Xiao doesn't need, or everyone knows their effects. With Lin Xiao's current financial resources, he is not enough to get them.
Not long after, the first day of the auction ended successfully. Lin Xiao returned to his courtyard very quickly with the plate crystal gold and two pieces of whale glue.
After all, with a treasure, of course you have to improve your strength as soon as possible, otherwise, will you keep it for others to think about it?
After Lin Xiao returned to his room, he first carefully took out the dragon beard needle from the plate crystal gold and put it into the soul guide ring.
These hair-thin gold threads curled up into granules and lay quietly in the corner of the ring, waiting for future use.
Then, he took out the 50,000-year-old whale glue. The whale glue was black all over, and the surface was as smooth as a mirror, with a faint golden luster, and it felt as cold as jade.
Lin Xiao knew that this level of whale glue was extremely rare and must be handled with caution.
He first lit a cluster of flames and placed the whale glue above the flame to start calcining.
As for the low temperature of the flame, it was a piece of cake for Lin Xiao, and then he used his soul power to bless the flame and gradually increase its temperature.
Even if it was still not as fast as the flame-type soul master, it was only a matter of time.
Time passed bit by bit, and the whale glue finally began to soften, and the surface gradually became sticky, emitting a faint fragrance.
Lin Xiao knew that the time had come. He swallowed the softened whale glue in one gulp without hesitation.
Suddenly, a hot breath surged from the abdomen and quickly spread to the whole body. Lin Xiao's skin began to turn red, as if it was burned by fire.
His breathing became rapid, and fine beads of sweat oozed from his forehead.
Fortunately, Lin Xiao was only an eight-year-old child, and his inner desire was not strong. He resisted the restlessness in his body, quickly came to the yard, and summoned his martial soul - the Dragon Soul Overlord Spear.
"Hah!" Lin Xiao shouted in a low voice, and the spear in his hand danced, the spear shadow was like a dragon, and the momentum was like a rainbow.
The latest novel is first published on !
He practiced the spear technique over and over again, trying to consume the hot energy in his body through intense exercise.
Time passed by minute by minute, Lin Xiao's clothes were already soaked with sweat, and the sweat on his forehead slid down his cheeks. His movements became faster and faster, and the spear shadow drew sharp arcs in the air.
Finally, after a slight sound came from the body, the restlessness gradually subsided.
Lin Xiao let out a long sigh and stopped the action in his hands. He felt the changes in his body.
"Ha...ha! My soul power has finally reached level 20, and my physical strength has increased significantly. After the auction is over, I can go get the second soul ring.
This time, it's probably a soul ring under 3,000 years old, which is not a problem for me, ha...haha.!
"Bang!"
Just as Lin Xiao was immersed in the joy after training, the door was suddenly slammed open.
He looked up suddenly and saw Xiao Zhan rushing in with an anxious face, sweat on his forehead, rapid breathing, and panic and anger in his eyes.
"Principal, what's wrong with you? Is there something wrong?" Lin Xiao's heart tightened and he quickly stood up and asked.
Xiao Zhan was panting, and there was a tremor in his voice.
"Lin Xiao, Yu Xiaogang, that crazy beast, kidnapped my wife and children while I was away! He threatened me to hand over the soul bones, otherwise... otherwise he would kill them!"
Lin Xiao heard this, his pupils suddenly contracted, and he was shocked.
He never thought that Yu Xiaogang would go to such a point, completely disregarding the reputation of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Clan, and even resorting to such despicable means!
With shaking hands, Xiao Zhan took out a letter from his bosom and handed it to Lin Xiao:
"This is a letter left by Yu Xiaogang. He asked me to bring my soul bone and you to see him tonight.
He also said that if I dare to bring one more person, he will kill my wife and children immediately! Lin Xiao, I don't want to implicate you, but my wife and children... I... What should I do!"
Xiao Zhan's voice was full of despair and helplessness. His eyes showed both worry for his wife and children, anger towards Yu Xiaogang, and even a trace of guilt towards Lin Xiao.
His fists were clenched tightly, his knuckles turned white, as if he was trying his best to suppress the anger and fear in his heart.
Lin Xiao took the letter and quickly glanced at it. The content of the letter was no different from what Xiao Zhan said, and there was a sense of coldness and threat between the lines.
He raised his head and looked at the principal in front of him, who was always calm, but now looked like a helpless child, and a wave of bitterness surged in his heart.
