Chapter 497: Chapter 491: Bound to Succeed
“Ladies and gentlemen, the ability of Time Stone is very simple. It accelerates the passage of time in a localized area, causing the majority of objects around it to decay completely. Only high-level and above Time crystals possess the ability to exempt themselves from aging.” The auctioneer revealed a hint of caution in her beautiful eyes.
In pursuit of the elusive power of Time, many powerful individuals and pets in the Goldsmith family with a life close to depletion died under the Time Stone. However, no person or pet was able to awaken the power of Time.
However, the appearance of the Time Stone proves, from one perspective, the existence of treasures that can significantly delay the passage of time, allowing Trainers to consume only one day of their lifespan for one year in Celestial Dungeon.
If the Goldsmith family could find such a treasure, they would undoubtedly become the strongest and most powerful Beast Control Power in Blue Star, and even change the dynasty.
After all, consuming only one day of lifespan for one year is such a terrifying miracle that the lifespan of Legendary Powerful Ones, which last for thousands of years, can surge to hundreds of thousands of years. This is almost indistinguishable from eternal life for short-lived human beings.
It is exactly because of such a terrifying possibility that the Goldsmith Patriarch has not given up on excavating the Celestial Dungeon, and, spending a huge amount of human and resources, joined forces with the five major families of Peony to increase the development and exploration of the Celestial Dungeon.
“According to past experts’ identification, Time Stone belongs to Level 7 Epic resources, and its rarity as a Time property makes its value comparable even to that of Legendary resources.
Therefore, the starting price for this lot is: an arbitrary Level VIII Legendary Pet Resource! In addition, this lot does not accept Star coin transactions!”
As the auctioneer’s voice sounded, David Jones’s eyelids twitched.
He was at the auction to pick up a bargain, but this price has exceeded his budget.”
In a No. 1 private room, Wayne Goldsmith was gazing intensely from No. 2 tea room to No. 20’s tea room.
That’s right. There were a total of 20 top forces from all over the country and friendly to the Goldsmith family at this top-level Star Moon Auction Event.” “Elder, do you think anyone will bid for the Time Stone?” Wayne Goldsmith smiled.
In response, an old man beside him carefully said with a slight cold sweat on his forehead.
“Yes, young master. Time resources are extremely rare, and the Beast Control Power that is able to participate in this auction is quite powerful. They wouldn’t mind offering one Level 8 Legendary Pet Resource just to satisfy their curiosity!”
“I think the opposite. This Time Stone should go unsold!” Ignoring the old man’s astonishment, Wayne Goldsmith confidently said.
As expected, when the auctioneer announced the price of the Time Stone, the auction’s enthusiasm suddenly cooled down; no one chose to bid for a while.
“Young master’s foresight is far-reaching, and I am ashamed of my inferiority,” the old man flattered.
“Teacher, what’s the matter?”
Watching Luna Polly reaching out to stop her, Bella Wanton’s eyes showed confusion.
“You’d better not buy it. The Time Stone is too dangerous!” Luna Polly said seriously, “Do you know the former Deputy Dean Smith of Phoenix College?” Bella Wanton shook her head with a puzzled look.
However, she knew that Beast Masters who could serve as leaders of Phoenix College were basically Legendary Powerful Ones.
“Ten years ago, Deputy Dean Smith bid on a Time Stone at the Star Moon Auction Event, hoping to study the power of Nirvana rebirth from the decaying aging power on the Time Stone.”
Speaking of this, Luna Polly’s eyes revealed a barely noticeable trace of horror.
“As a result, the Time Stone exploded for some unknown reason, causing Deputy Dean Smith’s body to be tainted with the decaying power of the Time Stone, which led to his Arcane Star Cultivation to deteriorate instead of progress. Up to now, he is still trying to remove the intricate decaying power!” “Something is wrong. The Star Moon Auction Event used Time Stone to harm the school leader. Didn’t the school’s senior management object?” Bella Wanton’s beautiful eyes condensed.
“At that time, the principal was furious and personally went to Peony. I don’t know what price the Goldsmith family paid to completely calm things down. 1 didn’t expect the Goldsmith family to dare to auction Time Stone again!” Luna Polly sneered.
“I see.” Bella Wanton withdrew her tender fingers.
She would not arrogantly provoke the Time Stone, which could harm even Legendary Powerful Ones.
Under the mentoring of their elders, the Beast Masters who had thoughts about Time Stone all gave up the idea one by one.
David Jones alone did not give up. He activated the Illusion-Piercing Eye to look at the green stone on the stage, which was inlaid together by numerous tiny particles.
“What a terrifying breath!”
David Jones’ pupils shrank slightly, and he could faintly see strands of black and dangerous mist surrounding the Time Stone.
As expected, the black mist emitted by the Time Stone is what accelerates the passage of time and causes all things around it to decay.
(Time Stone]: Level 8 Legendary Time resource, a precious resource formed by the conjunction of the Time Dragon’s fallen Dragon Scales and an unknown special substance that does not exist in Blue Star, with abilities to accelerate time and decay everything.
Note: Only Time pets can ignore and digest this decaying power that can corrupt Legendary Powerful Ones, thus evolving towards the lofty existence of Time Dragon.
“Time Dragon!” David Jones’s face changed, and his gaze at the Time Stone became more solemn.
Through Dragon of Domination records, he was very clear about how perverted and terrifying Time Dragon was, even possessing irresistible, god-like power.
Since this Time Stone was related to Time Dragon, he had to obtain it no matter what!
David Jones clenched his fists with determination.
His peculiarity did not escape Lilith Hoyle’s attention, who looked at her disciple curiously and asked softly, “Are you interested in Time Stone?”
“Yes, Teacher,” David Jones replied truthfully, recovering from his shock.
It was probably because the Star Moon Auction Event didn’t know about the connection between Time Stone and Time Dragon that they put it up for auction. If he wanted to buy this Time Stone, it would be better to inform his teacher properly.
“David, let’s make a deal. You help me raise my wife, and I’ll help you buy this damn stone!” Grau said indifferently.
David Jones glanced at the expectant Immortal Dragon and shook his head to reject.
“I have my own financial resources, thank you, but there’s no need for my senior brother to step in!”
After that, just when the auctioneer’s face showed disappointment and the Time Stone was about to go unsold, David Jones entered a price that the Star Moon Commerce Guild could not refuse on the screen at the table.
On the stage, the Goldsmith daughter glanced at the sudden bid and paused, forcefully suppressing her excitement and loudly saying, in an incredulous tone.
“The No. 3 private room bids ten drops of Ten Thousand Years Evergreen Stone Milk! Is there anyone else bidding?”
His sister’s actions suddenly startled Wayne Goldsmith, and his eyes immediately turned to the No. 3 tea room, the corners of his mouth lifting slightly.
