The Epic Tale of Chaos vs Order - Chapter 1073

Chapter 1073: Dragon’s Heart Core Chapter 1073: Dragon’s Heart Core As the bidding for the Aegis of Eternity continued, the excitement in the auction hall reached a fever pitch.

The holographic displays flashed rapidly as bids were submitted in quick succession.

The price climbed higher and higher, eventually reaching a staggering seven thousand spirit coins.

Cain watched the frenzy unfold, noting the intense competition among the bidders, but he had already lost all interest in the bid.

The Aegis of Eternity was good, but not worth more than six thousand spirit coins.

Some people were bidding because they could not afford to lose and did not care about the money.

Finally, with a decisive nod, a wealthy merchant from one of the prominent families secured the armor with a final bid that left those in the regular seats buzzing with admiration.

Legends, on the other hand, just shook their heads, seeing someone pay so much.

The only real winners were the Millennium Auction House.

Richard congratulated the successful bidder before moving on to the next item.

The golden gate shimmered once more, and a new treasure descended onto the stage: a pair of elegant, enchanted gauntlets known as the “Fists of Fury.” These gauntlets were said to enhance the physical strength and speed of the wearer, making them highly sought after by melee combatants.

The bidding for the gauntlets was spirited but not as intense as the first round.

Cain observed the pattern forming: the auctioneer had started with a remarkable item to captivate the audience, and now the auction was settling into a more measured pace.

It was a good strategy that would keep people on the edge of their seats, allowing them to relax for a few moments before once more giving them a dose of adrenaline.

That way, they would keep bidding high amounts.

After the “Fists of Fury” came a mystical amulet called the “Pendant of Serenity,” which offered protection against mental assaults.

Its utility was evident, but it didn’t draw as much fervor from the bidders.

Cain noted how the auctioneer skillfully modulated the excitement levels, keeping the audience engaged but not overwhelmed.

He was not interested in the amulet as his True Name was already formidable enough to the point that even Stellar Abyssal Legendary Spells could not overcome his spirit defenses, so he limited himself to watching the show.

The fourth item was a rare alchemical tome, “The Elixir Codex,” filled with ancient recipes for powerful potions and elixirs.

Again, the bidding was moderate, reflecting the strategic ebb and flow orchestrated by the auctioneer.

Although in Aether, Cain paid a lot of attention to professions like alchemy, rune crafting, and genetic coding, he was not going to follow that path in the Crimson World.

He would concentrate only on his power, so it was better if he focused his time on his cultivation and bought any future potion that he might need.

Just as Cain was starting to get bored, the fifth item came, which immediately captured his attention.

The golden gate opened again, revealing an object that seemed to pulse with raw, draconic energy.

It was a crystalline heart, glowing with a deep, radiant light.

Richard’s voice rang out, his tone resonating with excitement.

“Behold, the ‘Dragon’s Heart Core,’ a legendary artifact capable of bestowing its bearer with a second legendary dragon heart.

This treasure enhances the powers of those with dragon bloodlines or abilities, offering unparalleled strength and vitality.” Cain’s eyes glowed with a meaningful light full of desire.

The Dragon’s Heart Core was a treasure of immense value for someone like him, who had mastered Dragonform.

Such an artifact could greatly amplify his power, allowing him to unlock new levels of draconic potential.

“The Dragon’s Heart Core can integrate with the bearer’s essence, forming a secondary heart that enhances all dragon-related abilities.

Its effects are permanent, granting increased resilience, power, and regeneration, and it will improve alongside your cultivation.” Richard’s description was sharp and concise, making it clear just how impressive the treasure was, and raising the spirit of everybody.

As the bidding for the Dragon’s Heart Core commenced, the atmosphere in the Millennium Auction House crackled with intensity.

The Legends within their pods were fully engaged, their competitive spirits ignited by the allure of such a rare and powerful artifact.

Even those who did not have a dragon bloodline or ability could benefit from such treasures, as higher vitality and stronger bodies were something all Legends wished for.

Cain watched as the opening bid was placed at two thousand spirit coins, setting the stage for a fierce contest.

Almost immediately, the price began to climb, driven by the fervor of those vying for the core.

The bids jumped in increments of hundreds, then thousands, as the Legends jockeyed for dominance.

Each bid was projected on the holographic screens, the numbers rising in a relentless surge.

The competition was fierce, with several Legends revealing their determination to secure the Dragon’s Heart Core.

“Three thousand spirit coins,” the number appeared above the holographic screen on the main stage, but it was soon changed.

“Four thousand!” “Five thousand!” The numbers climbed steadily, each increase a testament to the artifact’s perceived value.

Cain remained patient, waiting for the opportune moment to enter the fray.

He watched his competitors carefully, noting their strategies and gauging their resolve.

As the bidding reached six thousand spirit coins, Cain made his first move.

His bid appeared on the screens, a bold offer that momentarily silenced the competition.

“Six thousand five hundred spirit coins!” Cain marked his bid on his panel, his eyes sharp.

The bid drew attention, but his focus was only on the treasure.

The auctioneer, Richard, nodded approvingly, sensing the mounting excitement in the hall.

The room buzzed with anticipation as the bids continued to escalate.

“Seven thousand!” “Seven thousand five hundred!” “Eight thousand!” Cain maintained his focus, as he was determined to obtain the heart.

Dragonform had already become a main part of his battle style, as it granted him a powerful body and allowed access to long-range attacks.
