Is that a Wisp?

Chapter 534 Transparent Fragment



Krune got puzzled.

"Divinity Essence?"

Erzato quickly explained through a Divine Sense message.

"That's something that can't be found in nature. Only Semi-Divinity and Divinity Realm cultivators or demon beasts can make it. However, it takes a long time to make even a single drop, let alone a hundred bottles. It is even worse if you are at the Semi-Divinity Level. At this level, you can also use Divinity Energy to create Divinity Essence, but the rate of conversion is at least 10 times slower than a Divinity Realm cultivator or demon beast. So almost no one tries to create it at the Semi-Divinity Realm."

"How long does a drop take to be created by a Divinity Realm?"

Erzato pondered a bit before saying.

"It depends on which stage they are at the moment and their own talents. But I guess the average would be something around 1 year for a drop. She is asking 100 bottles, which have 1000 drops each, so 100000 drops in total."

Krune was taken aback.

"One hundred thousand years just to make enough to buy that Planet Core Essence?"

Erzato laughed out loud.

"That is just the initial price, just look as the bidding war starts."

Sure enough, it began.

"130 Divinity Essence Bottles!"

"150!"

"200!"

"220!"

Krune felt his heart hurting after hearing those prices. Just how long did it take for them to make that many Divinity Essence?

In the end, the Planet Core essence was sold for 257 Divinity Essence Bottles. Or to be more specific, 257000 years of accumulation! Gone in just a second.

"Oh, right! What do you guys use Divinity Essence for?"

Erzato shrugged his shoulders.

"Isn't that obvious? They are just like Spirit Stones. The more you have, the faster you can cultivate. Semi-Divinity and Divinity cultivators and demon beasts take forever to cultivate, so all of them would love to have unlimited amounts of Divinity Essence for it. In the end, it became a type of currency, just like Spirit Stones."

Krune nodded. That made sense.

The Core Planet Essence was quickly delivered to its buyer. After that, the next item appeared on the stage. However, when Krune saw that, his mouth twitched.

"This is something that all the Heavenly Competition participants would love to have. But unfortunately, the Blacksmith Organization already sold all of them. It's an Eight Stars Path Purple Flame Equipment. While it was for sale in the Blacksmith Organization Network, you could still buy it for Spirit Stones. Unfortunately, you won't have a chance anymore. At least, not before the famous blacksmith, Jolk, forge more of them. Obviously, the majority of the participants can't wait for it, so our Auction House made sure to acquire some pieces, three in total."

"The first one is a Purple Flame Sword compatible with Fire Element Users. The initial bidding price is 200 Divinity Essence Bottles."

Krune almost vomited blood. He sold all of them for Spirit Stones. But these guys of the auction are taking advantage of the Heavenly Competition to sell it for Divinity Essence. Normally, it would be impossible to do that. After all, Stars Path Level equipment is far from being worth spending Divinity Essence on them. But now, with the Dalin Universe's Five Slots on stake, the price greatly increased.

'Wait!'

Krune looked into his spatial ring and found quite a few of his Purple Flame Weapons. Those were basically the last ones he made while he was practicing. He felt too lazy to put them for sale, so they stayed there.

'Perhaps, I can sell them in this auction as well. If something I want appears, I will at least have the chance to bid!'

Krune quickly made his mind and made his way to the counter where there were some of the auction employees working. Erzato, of course, followed him right behind.

Once there, Krune asked those guys.

"Would that be okay to enter some of my items for auction?"

The employee looked at Krune before nodding.

"It is, but there is a certain level requirement. Also, there is a 10% fee over the final price it is sold for. Are you okay with that?"

Krune nodded.

"Very well, please follow me."

Erzato was curious to see what Krune wanted to sell, but he didn't ask since he would see it soon anyway.

Krune was guided into a private chamber by the employee. A few minutes later, an appraiser arrived in there too.

"Hello, friends. Would you mind to let me see what you wish to put out for auction?"

Krune waved his hand, and suddenly, 23 pieces of Purple Flame Equipment appeared on the table. All of them at the Eight Stars Path Level.

Let alone Erzato, even the appraiser, was taken aback by that. The Purple Flame Equipments are very easy to identify thanks to their Purple Hue and the Purple Flame Mark that all of them carried.

However, the appraiser quickly calmed down. Because of the rarity of the Purple Flame Equipments, a lot of fake ones began to appear in the market. He had to first make sure that these were the real deal.

"I must let you know that those who offer fake equipments will be severely punished. Are you sure you want me to verify them?"

Sure enough, the appraiser doubted that they were real. It was very hard for them to acquire 3 pieces, but now there is 23 more just in front of him. He couldn't be blamed for being suspicious.

"Don't worry, you can appraise them as much as you want. I can guarantee that every single one is authentic."

The appraiser nodded. He then took out a small box from his waist and tapped on it. Immediately, everyone inside the room was teleported into another Pocket Dimensional Realm. To test if the Purple Flame Weapons were real, he had to use them. That's why he brought everyone in here.

The appraiser grabbed the first Purple Flame Weapon and began to perform his tests.

Time passed, and 15 minutes later, Krune was back in the previous room with Erzato and the appraiser.

"Thank you, friend. We will put every single one of them for auction."

Krune nodded.

"In your opinion, what's the least amount of Divinity Essence I can make with them?"

The appraiser pondered a bit before answering.

"They definitely won't sell for less than 200 Divinity Essence Bottles each. After all, there are way too many Heavenly Competition Participants. So you definitely won't get less than 4600 Divinity Essence Bottles. Considering the auction 10% fee, that would be 4140 Bottles."

Krune nodded.

"Then would you mind if I make bids with this number in mind? I don't know when my weapons will be put out for auction. If something I want appears before that, I wouldn't have the money yet."

The appraiser agreed happily.

"Definitely! I'll make the arrangements on my side, so you can simply go back and watch the auction. As long as you don't surpass the 4140 bottles, that will be fine. You will most likely get much more than that, after all."

Krune smiled and nodded. After that, he and Erzato returned to their sit in the Auction House.

Erzato finally couldn't hold his curiosity anymore and decided to ask.

"Where did you get all that equipment?"

Krune shrugged his shoulder.

"Isn't that obvious? I forged them. It is that simple."

Krune didn't try to hide it. He can use Purple Tribulation Lightning, and everyone will be able to see it later. Also, 'Jolk' is protected in the Wisp Protection Law, so everyone knows that he is a wisp. Erzato only needed to connect the points to understand that Krune was their real creator.

Sure enough, Erzato was surprised, but not to the point of being shocked. There is also the fact that those were Eight Stars Path Equipment, which matches Krune's cultivation level.

Erzato then shook his head. He knew that without the Heavenly Competition, these equipments would never sell for Divinity Essence, so it was basically a one-time event. Only when Krune becomes able to make Equipments at the Semi-Divinity Level will they really be worth Divinity Essense.

"What do you want to buy?"

Krune shrugged his shoulders.

"I don't know. It's just in case something a want appears. Even if it doesn't, I guess there is nothing wrong with having Divinity Essence on reserve for later."

Erzato agreed with Krune. Krune is getting over four thousand bottles of Divinity Essence. That's an enormous amount even for someone like him. Unless he has an excellent reason, the Extreme Yin Yang Palace would never let him take that amount with him.

"Too bad the Planet Core Essence is gone already. It would be very useful for me in the future."

Erzato then said.

"There is no need to worry. It was really a rare item, but not impossible to acquire through other methods. It's just that you won't be able to get an entire bottle of it."

Krune smiled and kept watching the auction. In the end, his first Purple Flame Weapon went for 294 Divinity Essence bottles. Of course, that one wasn't his, so he had no share in that payment.

Suddenly, the female demon beast on the stage seemed to receive a message. She directed her eyes to the public before announcing.

"I have great news for everyone. It seems like Jolk, the blacksmith responsible for the Purple Flame Equipments, has just offered another 23 of them to be put in this auction. Even we didn't expect him to appear here. Our auction house deeply thanks you, Jolk."

Immediately, everyone began to look around. Everyone wanted to know who this Jolk is. However, the auction house didn't point at anyone. It was obvious that they didn't intend to reveal his appearance to the others.

Krune heard that as well and smiled.

"Sure enough, they also guessed it right. Oh well, they would need to be idiots if they couldn't figure out this much."

The Auction house became lively after receiving that news. That gave the ones who didn't have a Purple Flame Weapons a higher chance of acquiring one.

"Let's continue our auction."

The next item was then teleport on the stage. After a brief explanation, another bidding war started.

Time passed, and over thirty items came and went. The majority of them were things that the Divinity Realm cultivators and demon beasts wanted. Those at Krune's level wouldn't have much use for them.

It was only when the 37th item appeared that Krune's attention was finally aroused. Not only him, but a lot of the Heavenly Competition Participants also noticed when it appeared.

"Is that... a Heavenly Fragment? But... it's transparent?"

Krune looked around and noticed that a lot of cultivators and demon beasts around his level also had the same impression.

The female auctioneer smiled before explaining.

"The next item is a Heavenly Fragment of a destroyed Universe. Because of that, it is not bound by the laws of its previous Universe anymore. That means that any Heavenly Fragment Owner of any Universe... can absorb it too!"
