CHAPTER 456 THE SKELETON OF AN INNATE SPIRITUAL EMPEROR

"Three point eight million gold coins!" The young master of the Golden Leopard Valley gave a higher

price again without any hesitation.

He had already given up on the egg. He could not afford to lose the spiritual space tool too. He would

continue to compete over it as long as the price did not reach four million gold coins. His father would

definitely be very disappointed in him otherwise.

A big smile spread over Vito's face when the young master called out his price. Everyone fell into

silence after that. No one dared to quote a higher price. The price of three point eight million was just

too much for them to oppose.

"Hey, Ricky. What if we give a higher bid? Do you think he would give up?" Soar suggested. He looked

at Ricky as an evil smile crept across his face.

"I'm not sure about that. If some other guy calls out a higher bid, he will probably continue to go higher.

I'm not sure what would happen if he hear my voice. Maybe he would give up! We just paid two million

gold coins to win the egg. He would probably think we are really that rich. If he gives up, we will have to

pay for it though. The truth is that we've already run out of money, so we can't," Ricky replied seriously.

"So, we'd better not take the risk."

"Ahh, I know what you mean. It's kind of boring to just sit here though. I just wanted to make the

Golden Leopard Valley pay more money," Soar said unhappily.

No one made any more bids. Vito also understood that the price of three point eight million might be

the highest price anyone could afford to offer for it. Still, he had never anticipated that the price would

reach such a high bid.

He then announced in an excited voice, "So, we have a bid of three point eight million gold coins! Now

the spiritual space tool goes to the Golden Leopard Valley! Please come to take the tool after the

auction is over."

The silence among the crowd brought on by shock lasted for a long time before everyone began to

collect themselves. It was an extremely high price to most of the warriors and forces, after all.

"So, the final item we are going to offer is going on auction next!" Vito said in an even more mysterious

tone at that point in time. "Those on the third floor may had known what the first and second items were

in advance, but I'm sure that none of you have heard anything about what the last item is!"

All the warriors began to whisper with excitement. They were puzzled again upon hearing the news

about the last item.

"So, please tell us what on earth it is," someone in another private room on the third floor asked. "How

powerful is it compared to the other two items you just sold?"

"My friend, it goes without saying that the last item is super precious," Vito said to the crowd in a

confident tone.

Everyone grew more excited then. The last item was more precious than a spiritual space tool at the

intermediate stage! What could it be? Could it be some kind of extremely powerful pill?

Those powerful forces who had just failed to win the spiritual space tool were especially curious about

it. They had already lost the chance to win the spiritual space tool. Now all of them were desperate to

win the last item.

As for the young master and the old man from the Golden Leopard Valley, they did not have much

money left because they had already spent almost all of their fortune to win the spiritual space tool.

They had probably spent a large amount of the treasury money from the whole Golden Leopard Valley.

"Damn it! The last item is more precious than the spiritual space tool!" the young master cursed in rage.

"Don't worry, young master. He is probably just making a mountain out of a molehill," the old man

comforted him calmly.

"Stop being mysterious, and just tell us what it is, please," the warriors watching the auction urged.

None of them could wait to know what it might be anymore.

"Ha-ha! As you wish, everyone! This item is slightly different from the former two. We will present it to

everyone now," Vito responded before he began to laugh.

Immediately, two maids walked out in front of everyone, carrying a glass tank.

Inside the tank, there was an incomplete skeleton. Judging from its broken appearance, it seemed that

it had once been eroded by some kind of strong energy.

"A skeleton! What the hell?" all the warrior cried out in disappointment. They could not figure out what

such a skeleton could be used for.

'Maybe this skeleton contains some special power?'

That was the thought that Ricky and some warriors on the third floor had in their heads.

"It turns out it's just a skeleton! How can it be more powerful than a spiritual space tool?" sneered the

young master of the Golden Leopard Valley and some other warriors.

"Don't look down upon it, everyone! Do you really think that we would sell any useless things to our

customers? Let me just tell you about this item! This is not just an ordinary skeleton!" Vito explained

unhurriedly upon seeing the reactions of the disappointed warriors. He was not afraid that they would

become so depressed that they would not participate in the auction at all.

"Oh? Really? What can a skeleton do? How can it be so valuable? Could it be the skeleton of a

spiritual emperor?" someone asked. Most warriors were also pondering over what it could be that

made it worthwhile.

"Ha-ha! What you just said is exactly right! This is indeed the skeleton of a spiritual emperor!" Vito

responded before he burst into laughter upon hearing the question! Taking a glance over the audience,

he found that he was very curious as to what would happen next.

As expected, the hall fell into silence. All the eyes of the crowd were staring at the skeleton that was

lying silently inside the tank.

Hiss! It left everyone in awe, and the crowd began to gasp one after another.

"The skeleton of a spiritual emperor?! How can it be!?" all the warriors asked in disbelief. It was just too

shocking.

The men in the private rooms on the third floor had complicated feelings about the item. They were

both shocked and thrilled. The skeleton of a spiritual emperor was definitely way stronger than a

spiritual space tool at the intermediate stage. All of them knew that without having to think.

A power called the ruling power was embedded in the skeleton of a spiritual emperor. It was the power

owned by the spiritual emperor. There was even some supreme enlightenment inspiration of the

emperor left in the skeleton sometimes.

It was extremely precious to any completed spiritual king. No spiritual space tool could compete with it

in that aspect.

"Damn it! Damn it! It is the skeleton of a spiritual emperor!" the young master of the Golden Leopard

Valley roared in rage as he slammed his fist on the table in the room.

"No, I feel like something is not right, young master. If it is really the skeleton of a spiritual emperor,

how could they be willing to sell it?" the old man reasoned as he squinted his eyes. As an old man, he

was not so easily fooled.

The next moment, he shouted to Vito, asking him, "May I have your attention, please? I still have a

question. If this is really the skeleton of a spiritual emperor, why did you choose to sell it? It must be as

valuable to you as it is to us."

The moment he finished speaking, everyone in the hall went mute again. That was the same thing

most of the warriors were wondering. They had been too scared to ask Vito that question.

"Well, that's a very good question. I'm going to explain that next," Vito replied, a smile creeping onto his

lips. Apparently, he had already anticipated that question in advance and had prepared to answer it.

"This skeleton is indeed from a spiritual emperor, but it was eroded by a stronger power. So, there is

only about thirty percent ruling power left in this skeleton,"

Vito explained. He then paused for a moment before he continued, "But I'm sure you know well how

strong it is even though there is only thirty percent left! It is definitely much more useful than a spiritual

space tool at the intermediate stage to any completed spiritual king."

"Oh, I get it!" All the warrior understood the reason they were selling it now. The skeleton of a spiritual

emperor that only contained thirty percent ruling power was indeed less valuable than gold coins to a

strong organization such as the Luxurious Chamber of Commerce.

The warriors on the third floor did not feel disappointed in the item at all. This is the property of Nô-velDrama.Org.

Vito was right in his presumptions. Even though there was only thirty percent ruling power left, it was

more valuable than a spiritual space tool to a completed spiritual king.

"Damn it! It is really the skeleton of a spiritual emperor!" the old man cursed at that point. He could not

contain his anger anymore when he learned that fact.

"So, I'm sure I've already delivered all the information about this skeleton. Feel free to call out your bids

now, my friends! Like always, the one who offers the highest price will win the item!" Vito announced

loudly the next moment.

"One more thing. This skeleton is sealed by our array now, so you can't feel the ruling power," he then

added.

"It's the skeleton of a spiritual emperor and it contains thirty percent ruling power! Ricky, this is our

chance! We should give it a try!" Soar suggested excitedly.

"Yes, I know that. I really don't have any money anymore though! I spent all my money on the jade; you

know that," Ricky responded helplessly.

As soon as he finished speaking, both Ricky and Soar suddenly noticed that there was something

strange happening to Tina.
