Chapter 1896: Chapter 1895: 1,000 Billion!

It was a horn entirely red with flames.

The shape was somewhat like a rhino horn.

But it was clearly not a rhino horn. If it were merely a rhino horn, it certainly wouldn’t be auctioned here.

Nor would it be used as the finale item for bidding.

“This is actually a Drought-Maiden Horn, kid, this thing is even more precious than the Lightning Cloud Wood, acquire it at all costs.” The Sovereign Witch’s voice rang out again.

Lin Dong nodded his head. He had actually seen this Drought-Maiden Horn in an ancient book.

Due to Tang Mu’s General Constitution, Lin Dong had specifically researched zombie matters from ancient texts.

After researching, he learned that, in the ancient times of Dragon Country, there were four major progenitors of zombies.

They were General, Drought Demon, Yinggou, and Houqing respectively.

Among them, General was the first of the four major zombie progenitors.

Drought Demon was the second.

It was rumored that General possessed the Pangaean Constitution, could remain youthful forever, and could only be killed with special means, otherwise its lifespan was limitless.

In addition, it was naturally endowed with various other abilities.

Flight, earth escape, telekinesis, astral projection were all child’s play.

Moreover, it also mastered thunder method, witch’s curse, and blood mark.

Even the bloodline secret techniques of those Blood Clan in the west couldn’t compare to General’s blood mark technique.

They were on completely different levels.

General, when cultivated to a certain extent, for over ten thousand years, could even grasp the power of space.

Practicing instant teleportation, dark whirlpool, space distortion, and other space techniques!

An even more powerful one, cultivated for a hundred thousand years, could even control the power of time.

Of course, those Generals who could master space and time, were only documented in ancient books.

Even in ancient times, no one had ever seen them. Much less had anyone confirmed it.

This was the General’s ability, but in this Age of Dharma End, how could a General appear!

Like Tang Mu, though possessing the General’s physique, the probability of unsealing the General’s bloodline is almost zero.

Unless Lin Dong could refine a Grade 7 Pill General Pill.

But such a high-level pill, Lin Dong couldn’t refine.

Even if he had the ancient alchemist’s recipe, he couldn’t refine it.

When Lin Dong looked up ancient texts last time, while reviewing General’s material, he also looked at the other three great zombie progenitors.

So he had some understanding of the Drought Demon.

The Drought Demon’s greatest talent was its ability to control flames.

Even a juvenile Drought Demon could manipulate flames with strength beyond Alchemist Fire.

A single fireball could burn a city!

It was rumored that a Drought Demon, cultivated for ten thousand years, could manipulate flames to change the temperature of heaven and earth, raining down droughts!

A Drought Demon cultivated for a hundred thousand years could even use flames to burn the world!

As for the Drought-Maiden Horn, it was a horn on the head of the Drought Demon, containing terrifying yin energy.

The Drought Demon, though capable of controlling fire, belongs to yin.

Its body contains a large amount of yin energy, which when released, can assimilate humans, turning them into zombies.

The yin energy within this Drought-Maiden Horn is not inferior to that of a Yin Vein Land. The energy of its yin energy is comparable to three King-Grade Medicinal Herbs.

Even Lin Dong, at this moment, was very tempted.

Moreover, it could seemingly be refined into a ‘Soul Instrument’. It is a supreme treasure in the eyes of those practicing yin and evil techniques.

They can use it to control zombies, or control corpses!

It can also function as a ‘Soul Summoning Banner’, to nurture ghosts!

In addition, it is also a main ingredient in some pills.

It can be used to refine ‘Drought-Maiden Pill’.

Its effects, like the General Pill, can help those with Drought Demon constitution to unseal the Drought Demon bloodline.

As for its other effects, Lin Dong was not aware.

Such a supreme treasure, Lin Dong naturally was determined to obtain it.

At the moment, Ninth Miss Chen Yu noticed many people looking bewildered at the item.

Thus, she explained to everyone.

“This is a Drought-Maiden Horn, discovered by a powerful mercenary of ours from Southborne.”

“He led a mercenary group to treasure hunt in our Southborne’s restricted sea area and found this horn in a cave there!”

“They suffered over half casualties to bring back this item.”

Hearing this, someone couldn’t help but say:

“The mercenary group Ninth Miss speaks of, could it be Southborne’s second-ranked Purple Moon Mercenary Group?”

“I heard that some time ago, the Purple Moon Mercenary Group accidentally entered a place, suffering heavy casualties. Could it be for this item?”

“It should be undoubtedly.”

“…”

Ninth Miss Chen Yu nodded and said, “Presumably, everyone has guessed, this Drought-Maiden Horn was indeed brought back by the Purple Moon Mercenary Group.”

“As for its preciousness, allow me to elaborate…”

She spoke about the Drought-Maiden Horn’s effects for a good ten minutes.

They were basically those Lin Dong had seen in ancient texts.

However, there was one thing Lin Dong did not know before.

That is, this Drought-Maiden Horn seems to enhance the quality of Alchemist Fire.

At the moment, Lin Dong noticed that the mysterious man in the black robe, who was a Ninth Level Grandmaster, was also staring intently at the Drought-Maiden Horn.

Throughout the entire auction, Lin Dong found that he did not bid on anything.

In terms of bidding, the only thing he did bid on was the “Lightning Cloud Wood” moments ago but didn’t compete with Lin Dong to the end.

And now, Lin Dong saw the desire in his eyes towards the Drought-Maiden Horn,

It was quite apparent; his target in attending the auction this time was precisely this Drought-Maiden Horn.

Most likely, he knew from somewhere in advance that a Drought-Maiden Horn would be auctioned here at this auction.

Besides him, Lin Dong saw that Red Lust Master also became visibly excited the moment the Drought-Maiden Horn appeared.

It was quite apparent that the Drought-Maiden Horn was also her target this time at the auction!

Besides her, at least half of the people present had a heated gaze looking at the Drought-Maiden Horn.

At this moment, Ninth Miss Chen Yu announced:

“So now, let’s officially start the auction of the Drought-Maiden Horn, the starting price is one billion!”

Wow!!!

After this price was announced, there was yet another uproar at the scene.

It was quite evident that just the starting price being a billion was enough to discourage many.

Though the scene was full of Southern Sea tycoons and martial artists, who weren’t short on money.

But a starting price of one billion was clearly beyond what many could produce.

Of course, those who could produce were not few.

The first to bid was Wei Long.

He directly bid:

“One hundred and one billion!”

After he bid, Red Lust Master also bid.

“One hundred and ten billion!”

Then, many people began to bid one after another.

“One hundred and eleven billion!”

“One hundred and fifteen billion!”

“…”

Right then, Lin Dong also placed a bid.

However, he didn’t bother with bidding a billion or a few billions.

Instead, he directly shouted: “I bid one trillion!”
