Chapter 1079

(Unedited)



He did not know why but when he saw the Folgar beast stone, it was something that he needed to get his hands on. With that amount of ore, he would be able to create a more malleable type of metal than the materials he has prepared.

But it was already too late to notice the look on the people around him. He immediately feels a bit shy and wanted to take a step back.

But then he suddenly feels a piercing stare from a man with a braided beard and thick brows. He knew that the guy is the one he has offended. But before he could turn around, he quickly remember that he is actually in a disguise. So no matter what, he has to play the part.

But he also did not want to play along with the guy and just stood there in place. He even folded his arms as if saying that, 'I wanted to bid, what can you do, bite me?'

His reaction thoroughly incensed Tong Waiong as he glared at Xin Ja. But he could not do anything about it as this place is in front of a booth with several 3rd level Ki fighters guarding it. Plus they also know that somewhere near this place there are also several 4th and 5th level secret guards hiding. So no one dares to make trouble with this stall.

The man standing by the side of the counter flashed a faint smile on Xin Ja, and he also nodded his head in acknowledgment.

The man did not ask Xin Ja for any confirmation if he truly have money on him. This is because the person is confident that those who would raise the bid carry the money, and in their history in auctioning in this place, they have not encountered any fool who would play such tricks.

"Damn you guys!" upon seeing that the auction booth people did not move, Tong Waiong cursed.

He then harrumphs and then turns around to leave.

"Haha… That fool… he would only waste such material if he got his hands on it." a person beside Xin Ja muttered.

"Yeah, he has wasted a couple of valuable materials but made those junks… What a pity… I wish one of the weapon smiths would have purchased this material. If I could see the artifact they could craft then it was all worth it to watch…" another one chimed in.

Then suddenly, their eyes landed on the weird-looking guy who won the bid.

"What do you think he would do to that precious stone?"

"I don't know… I guess, he would ask someone in the village to fashion it into a piece of armor or a weapon."

"Well, I heard that those beast eaters would wrestle with beasts bȧrėhanded…"

"I guess… armor then…"

The people began whispering.

When he first saw it, his eyes are immediately glued to it. The reason for that is because he could clearly see the thick and strong chaotic Ki surrounding the stone's surface. He did not know if he could absorb it, but what he knew is that it seems to be calling for him.

It was as if it is tempting him to want it… it is tempting him to get his hands on it, a strange temptation which made him unable to control himself. Well, according to his shy personality, how could he do such a thing if there is no outside interference?

Xin Ja did not hesitate to pay for the 5 low-quality Ki stones and then immediately grabbed the item in his arms.

The Folgar beast stone is a bit heavy, and he almost could not carry it. But he was able to stabilize himself and quickly walks to the side.

"Alright! That is exciting, isn't it! Haha… Now for our next item… We have obtained this item through a merchant who bought it from a 6th level Ki fighter. That Ki fighter came from the frosty northern valley… It is said that he accidentally fell from a cliff and ended up in a nest of a snake monster… and in that nest, he found these two special items… One is a thousand-year ice core, and the other one is metallic frost ore…" After introducing the items the man began talking about the two and their properties.

The thousand-year ice core is just a block of regular ice at first, but after one thousand years it actually turned into a core. This means that if one could successfully attach the ice core to a weapon or a piece of armor, it would give that object an ice property and possibly ice ability.

After the introduction, the eyes of the onlookers went wide in excitement. Ice ability is something that could be useful when in dire need. Many knew that ice could be formed into a temporary armor. This means that one could be saved in critical conditions. Or one could also be granted with ice ability that could slow down an enemy by freezing. And not only that… but there are many more possibilities when talking about the ice core.

Then the other one is the metallic frost ore. When Xin Ja heard the name of the item, his eyes glowed in excitement. How could he not grab this chance to get the ore he needed? That is the reason why he went to this village in the first place.

The bidding began and many did not bid with the metallic frost ore. Well, the reason for this is because… there is no blacksmith that is good enough to be able to use such a brittle ore. Metallic ice ore is something that's strong and brittle, unlike regular ores.

And so, most people began to bid with the ice core. The one who bought the ice core is a middle-aged-looking pudgy guy. One could tell that the man is actually someone from a rich household as he casually tosses 20 low-quality Ki stones to the auctioneer.

When the people around the stall saw this, they were all flabbergasted.

At this time, Xin Ja has already prepared himself for the auction of the metallic frost ore.

"Alright, let's start with the metallic frost ore, the lowest bid is 1 low-quality Ki stone. The bidding increment is 100 Jimal gold…"

"1 low-quality Ki stone and 100 Jimal gold…" someone shouted.

"2 low-quality Ki stone!" someone suddenly shouted.

Everyone looks at the person who just bid and they all showed an incredulous look. This is because, Tong Waiong is actually back, and behind him stood an old man with a stately aura, just like that of Divine Doctor Ba.

When the people saw who the man is, they all showed a respectful gaze. Who would not know who this man is in the village?

Anyone who frequents the weapon and armor workshops in town knows who this legendary figure is.

"It seems that Tong Waiong just brought with him a big wig." Someone whispered.

The rest around him nodded.

"I once again pity this ore if it landed in his hand." Someone said jokingly.

"Haha… Yeah, I think he would be able to break this one into pieces with one strike… Haha…"

The crowd began to be a little rowdy, but Tong Waiong and the old man he brought did not say anything and just stood to the side. At this time the pudgy middle-aged man walks towards them and then cupped his hand s towards the old man.

"Master Refiner Ha… It's an honor to see you here." The pudgy man said with a smile.

"Ahhh… Mister Ling, it's been a while... How was the artifact I crafted you the last time, is it to your liking?" the old man called Master Refiner Ha replied by also cupping his hands.

"Haha… Of course, of course… How could the artifact that Master Refiner Ha be subpar? I have been using it ever since it landed in my hand… and I think I will be asking you to install this thing for me in that artifact…" Mister Ling said while he waves the ice core in his hand.

When Master Refiner Ha saw the ice core, his eyes immediately glowed in excitement.

"Haha… With this material and a piece of metallic frost ore, it would be turned into a perfect ice affinity artifact… Haha…" Maser Refiner Ha said with a loud chuckle.

"Master… I think we can buy that metallic front ore to complete the artifact…" Tong Waiong suddenly pointed at the object on the stand.

With glowing eyes, the three nodded their head in agreement.

Xin Ja on the side has already noticed and heard their plan, so how could he not know what kind of trouble he would be in if he insisted on bidding.

But as soon as he turns around, a shameless voice interrupted him.
