Chapter Fifty-Nine: The Origin of Memories
"Haha, you little kid really knows how to make a big show of it, but not bad, very good, I like it. What I just used was a divine technique called 'Soul-Capturing Heavenly Sound', which is a heavenly-grade seven-star divine technique. It's enough to intimidate these people." Greedy Old Man's voice echoed in Xuan Yuan's mind, and the previous sound was made by Greedy Old Man directly controlling Xuan Yuan's body and using the technique.
"But just now using 'Soul Capturing Heavenly Sound' has consumed a lot of my power, you little brat should kill more people to compensate me."
Xuanyuan's heart relaxed, and indeed he had gambled correctly earlier. What kind of person was the greedy old man? He was an existence that followed the 'Devouring Emperor', and at his peak, his power was terrifying. Xuanyuan could imagine it - at least a Dou Emperor wouldn't dare to provoke him.
The strong will always cultivate a great momentum, a kind of intimidation that comes from true momentum. If one hasn't reached that level of strength, it's obviously somewhat empty.
It's like some strong people are clearly seriously injured and on the verge of death, just one more blow would be enough to finish them off, but some people just don't dare to make a move, that's what it means to have personal prestige.
At this moment, a maid in hand held a silver plate with the 'Treading Dragon Boots' that Xuan Yuan had bought. On the boots, two heavenly dragons seemed to be alive and kicking, as if they were walking on clouds, giving people an extremely agile feeling. Immediately, Xuan Yuan took out twelve boxes of Dou Wang coins from his Dou Ring and said:
"Go and check again."
The maid looked somewhat stunned, paused for a moment, and said:
"Isn't it 300 Dou Di coins?"
Xuanyuan chuckled and said:
"Isn't 300,000 Dou Wang coins worth 3,000 Dou Di coins?"
Upon hearing Xuan Yuan's voice, the maid suddenly realized that she had brought in the Star Moon suit earlier. Naturally, Xuan Yuan had the Golden Moon on him, and with an 80% discount, he only needed to pay 2.4 million Dou Wang coins. The mention of Dou Emperor coins was clearly meant to intimidate people.
By her side, the white young lady's beautiful eyes sparkled with admiration for Xuan Yuan, but just a moment ago, Xuan Yuan's temperament had indeed changed greatly in an instant, giving her a strange chill, as if he had become a different person. Even Yan Zi Yun had the same feeling, and Gu Xing's body hair stood on end, trembling involuntarily.
But soon calmed down again.
"Twenty million is enough." Bai Youniang spoke up again at this time.
"Yes, Miss Bai." The maid directly counted out ten boxes of Dou Wang coins and put all the Dou Wang coins into the Dou ring. After finishing, she bid farewell and left. Xuan Yuan immediately took off his shoes and put on the "Treading Dragon Boots". He instantly felt as if he was about to fly up into the air.
Xuanyuan immediately felt that with the Treading Dragon Boots, he could definitely go head-to-head against a strong opponent at the Douwang boundary, at least he had enough speed advantage.
Xuan Yuan tried to infuse his aura into the "Treading Dragon Boots", but when his aura flowed from the upper body to the lower body, all the way to the soles of his feet, Xuan Yuan discovered that the meridians in his lower body had not been opened up, let alone using his aura to activate the boots.
Helpless, Xuan Yuan had no choice but to sit down.
"Xuanyuan Gongzi, you're really clever." Bai Youniang didn't hide her admiration for Xuanyuan at all, and it was clear that Xuanyuan's wit made her feel very satisfied.
"Hehe, it's not that bad." Xuan Yuan was enjoying Bai Youniang's gaze at himself. After a rough calculation, he found that the 'Treading Dragon Boots' had cost him 2 million Dou Wang coins, and Yan Ziyun's Star Moon set had also cost 2 million Dou Wang coins. This meant that now, he only had 1.14 million Dou Wang coins left on him. It was clearly impossible to buy the last item, but he still wanted to take a look at what it was.
Just as Hua Yu was about to put this strange object on the auction table, a loud roar came from Lao Tzu.
"Xuanyuan, buy it down, this thing must be bought down."
The old man's roar was extremely frightening, shaking Xuan Yuan's forehead and making his head ache. Xuan Yuan also let out an angry roar:
"Don't shout out suddenly like this, what's going on? What's gotten you so worked up?"
"Can't you calm down? This is one of my original memories, it's one of my original memories. The 'Devouring Dao Scripture' that you've been cultivating, refining the marrow, refining the five organs, refining blood, refining orifices, and refining elixirs, all require my original memory. And this piece of original memory can restore a part of my power, at least allowing me to deal with Dou Zong without any problems." The greedy old man shouted almost frantically, causing Xuan Yuan's head to buzz loudly.
"You have cultivated the 'Swallowing and Spitting Method', 'Swallowing and Refining Flesh Method', 'Swallowing and Refining Bone Method' and 'Swallowing and Refining Pulse Method'. You can then cultivate the Yin family's Heavenly Dragon Ultimate Art, using the characteristics of the 'Swallowing Dao Code' to cover up the aura of the Yin family's divine ability. This allows you to swallow all divine abilities in these stages. However, if you don't cultivate the 'Swallowing and Refining Marrow Method' afterwards, once you cultivate the Yin family's Heavenly Dragon Ultimate Art, you will be restricted. You will be restricted from cultivating other divine abilities, but as long as you have cultivated the 'Swallowing and Refining Marrow Method', you can learn all marrow-refining divine abilities!"
Xuanyuan suddenly understood and listened intently, his tiger-like body shaking involuntarily. The greedy old man continued to chatter incessantly:
"The 'Devouring Dao Scripture' only begins to show its power at the Refining Marrow stage. At this stage, the capacity of the internal Qi is extremely important. So, if you want to be the number one under the 'Dragon Fighting Immortal Mansion', you'd better buy my original memory from me. Otherwise, you can only spend countless money, fight stones, crystals and so on, or kill countless people, letting my power slowly recover, and I will gradually recover all my memories."
Things have been said to this point, Xuan Yuan can't be unmoved, this piece belongs to the old greedy's original memory, must be done.
"This is a part of the broken law treasure that was knocked down during the war between the 'Swallowing Emperor' and many other emperors back then, you will gradually understand my meaning later."
Xuanyuan's heart skipped a beat, his hand slightly trembling as he gazed at the Origin Memory belonging to Greedy Old Man lying quietly on the auction stage. Countless schemes flashed through his mind as he prepared to try and take down this final treasure for 114,000 Battle King Coins. Was it possible? Apparently not easily.
Xuanyuan understood that the old man's increase in power was also his own, and today he had offended so many people. In the future, when he arrived at the 'Dragon Fighting Immortal Mansion', it would be impossible for him to have an easy time. At present, the old man's power could only deal with a person of the Dragon King's peak realm by surprise, otherwise, it would take a lot of effort. Now, as long as he bought this piece of original memory, he could let the old man deal with people in the Dragon Ancestor realm, which was undoubtedly a great guarantee for Xuanyuan.
Only one voice was heard, the strong man of the noble seat of Gui Bin Ya.
"Hmm, it looks a bit strange, there's no energy fluctuation at all. I'll spend 1,000 Dou Wang coins to buy it back and play with it."
"Haha, old friend, you're being too stingy. I'll spend 5,000 Douwang coins to buy it back and play with it." Another Douzong also spoke up.
"Two seniors, buying this kind of thing is like gambling on a stone, it's possible to lose in an instant, but I don't mind buying it and taking a look." Just then, Xiāo Tiān spoke up. "One hundred thousand Dou Wang coins."
"Xiao Tian Shixiong, why not just give it to me, your junior sister? I'll pay 15,000 Dou Wang coins for it. Let's just consider it a purchase for my own amusement." Biyue was also filled with curiosity about this so-called ultimate treasure.
"Bixue Shimei, I'm also quite interested in this ultimate treasure. Two million Douwang coins to buy it back for research, if it's trash, then so be it." Xiang Tianhao also joined the excitement.
"What's so precious about this thing that you can't see through it? If it were truly a treasure, the Round Moon Cave would have hidden it away long ago. Why would they bring it out for auction? It's just a gimmick. 23,000 Dragon Coins, I'll buy it." Xuan Yuan's voice came out, causing many people to hold their breath. In an instant, everyone let out a sigh of relief, and this time Xuan Yuan's voice didn't give off the chilling feeling that he was about to extract their souls.
"This young brother Xuan Yuan is indeed right, it seems that the Yuanyue Chamber of Commerce will auction off this item as the finale, which is somewhat thoughtless." One of the Dou Zong seemed to have also come to a realization and didn't want to argue anymore.
"Then leave it for you to fight over. If even the Dou Xian of Yuèyuè Dòngtiān can't come up with a reason, then what about us? Haha!"
"It's still the young brother who can see through the mystery, old man doesn't want it anymore, almost got played by Yuan Yue Chamber of Commerce." Another Dou Zong also responded, these people are all old foxes, previously attracted by the mysteriousness of this black stone, now broken by Xuan Yuan Dao's Breaking Mystery Machine, really not worth anything."
"Amazing, we old folks almost got taken for a ride, but unexpectedly a young whippersnapper actually saw through the trick. Oh well, I won't argue about it anymore." Another of the Dou Zong's laughter echoed out, clearly having bought quite a few things today and was already very satisfied.
Seeing the three Dou Zong not fighting, Xiao Tian hesitated for a moment, but thinking of Xuan Yuan's voice earlier made his heart chill. Now it was unnecessary to oppose Xuan Yuan in anything. Xiao Tian smiled faintly and said:
"Xuanyuan, my junior brother, since you want it, then I, as your senior brother, should yield to you. I won't argue about it anymore. However, I still hope that you, Xuanyuan, will not indulge in frivolous pursuits and neglect your cultivation."
"Heh heh, thank you, Senior Brother Xiao Tian. I just bought it to take a look anyway. If I couldn't see any mysteries in it, after all, we are fellow disciples, so giving it back to you guys is no big deal." Xuan Yuan smiled in response.
"Since that's the case, Xuan Yuan junior brother, why don't you let Hao Tian senior brother take a look first? 30,000 Dou Wang coins." Hao Tian thought Xuan Yuan was not an ordinary person, and if he could get him to spend money, there must be something special about it. If the price wasn't too high, it might be worth competing for.
"Right, Junior Brother Xuan Yuan, Eldest Sister Biyue also wants to see it first, 33,000 Dou Wang coins." Biyue's thoughts were different from those of Xiang Hao Tian. She simply wanted to make Xuan Yuan bleed a bit more, to buy a useless item that even the top Dou Xian experts couldn't figure out, and then she would be able to vent her anger.
Xuanyuan looked at these two people and couldn't help but feel a surge of anger in his heart, it was as if they were ghosts that refused to disperse.
