Poison God's Heritage

Chapter 750: Sun Auction II

I picked up the ring and looked through the content, surprise was clear on my face. This was a massive buttload of materials for crafting puppets. He already had given me a huge chunk before when I was back at his sect, but this is a mountain compared to what he gave me last time.

Not to mention there were even more metals that I have yet to use but could only read about from the Lord of Lord's pagoda.

I nodded to the Red Sun and placed the ring in front of me.

"I'll withdraw from this bidding, I have more important matters to handle," the Darkest Sun said.

"I'll also withdraw, but don't worry they'll give you a good price for that information," Shen Bao.

So, three were out, that leaves five. The Red sun already had given me a good starting Price that I can use to gauge the value of what others could give me in return for the information.

The Cryptic Sun looked around and threw his retained a ring. The retainer who still doesn't like me from earlier, placed the ring rather roughly on the table next to me.

I didn't even take a look at it as I waited for the others.

This didn't slip the retainer's eyes, hostile as he may be to me, he still wants to look like the loyal lapdog to his master.

"Are you not satisfied with what the lord had given you?" his tone was rather loud and rude.

"No one here cares about your existence, go back to your place and shut up, and if you keep interrupting me, then I'll consider returning this ring and refraining from trading with your master," I mocked.

"You dare!"

"Shut up!" the Cryptic Sun said, "Do you not see that you're being led by the nose. Kid, hurry up and look through the rest of their rings, I bet they won't hold a candle to what I have to offer," the Cryptic Sun said.

I didn't reply to him or answer and waited for the rest.

The flamboyant Sun refrained from trading, "Although intriguing, I have no interest in such knowledge, it would be good to learn a thing or two from but nothing pushes me to acquire it."

I respected his view. Now this leaves the Lord of Lords, the Wisest Sun, the Blue Sun, and the Red Sun in the betting pool, while the Cryptic Sun is left with worry in his eyes in case I refuse to accept what he has to offer.

The Wisest Sun offered a set of Laws and understanding of them and offered me an improved version of the Keys of the Vast Expanse to study. Which was pretty interesting in its own right but sadly he already knew I didn't need any of this. Though the value of these things is absurdly high, it wasn't for me.

And he knew it, it was only so that he pumps up the price of the knowledge I have.

The Lord of Lords smiled as he understood his friend's intentions and said, "I have already given you ownership of the Pagoda. Which was one of my most precious belongings, I doubt I could offer anything higher value than that," the Lord of Lords reminded me of his ownership of the Pagoda.

He was right, I still have yet to fully repay him for the pagoda, but he then cut me off before I was going to give up the entire bet and hand him over the bulk of the knowledge.

"But, it would be a shame to ask to be paid for something that you won fair and square. I'll help you unlock the later floors of the Pagoda and transfer the ownership completely, don't forget, I refined it myself so it was always mine. But after I transfer the ownership I won't have any hold or control over it even if you try and use it to against me," he smiled.

"I would never," I replied.

"Don't worry, as for the Knowledge, I'd rather pay whoever wins the bet to take a glimpse of it, since it would be unfair to take it from a junior with so much potential. Burning bridges with great talent such as yourself is nothing short of foolish," his words were aimed at the Cryptic Sun who felt the stab but couldn't argue lest it would further implicate him.

The Blue Sun looked at me and sent me a Divine Sense message, "My price for that knowledge, regardless of whatever any of them had offered you, I'm willing to double it. No, triple it," she said.

That was interesting. If she were able to triple the value of materials given to me by the Red Sun, then that will be pretty damn amazing for me. I could make even more puppets enough to fully recover the loss inside the Bastion.

"Not only that, I'm willing to enter the Bastion again with you if you still want to access it," she said. Your next journey awaits at m v|l-e'-NovelBin.net

"I don't think that's a wise idea," I said.

"I know, but we're not using our real bodies. I have many methods to access the Bastion now that you are the rightful owner and were able to enter it with ease. With both of us inside, we can study it and learn more from the world that has long been gone without it ever affecting our real bodies.

I can give you a body that you can possess, while I'll use one of my many clones, then we can both study the interior of the Bastion with ease. Not to mention we wouldn't be affected whatsoever in case of death."

"Sounds interesting," I said. I didn't want to mention to her that I could already use my other avatar, Shen Mo's body to do what she is talking about. But, Shen Mo's body needs my Dark Soul, it is the only thing it can use. And if he were to be lost inside the Bastion, I'd lose a huge chunk of my Soul to the Rakshasas I wouldn't want that.

"I'll consider it seriously once I see what preparations you have ready for us. And since you're the one who needs this knowledge more, I'm more inclined on giving it to you, but I have to see what the Cryptic Sun has to offer lest we end up in a death feud relationship with him."

I grabbed the ring from the Cryptic Sun and took a look at it.

I was expecting something disappointing to be honest, just enough for it not to be worth the value of the knowledge and enough for him to get a reason to be angry at me and cause a problem. But no, there were tons of Saint Qi stones and Origin Qi stones to fill a small hill. Not to mention a large load of cultivation manuals that had no real value to me but are worth a lot for other cultivators.

Basically nothing but monetary value items that I can exchange for whatever I want.
