Chapter 1208: Dragonbone Staff

Behind the scenes of the auction, there was a heavily guarded room. Not only were there layers of security guards in front of the door, but there were also three anti-theft doors inside.

Consciousness entered the room, infrared security devices crisscrossing like a spiderweb. In the center of the room stood a large shelf, laden with dozens of objects.

He soon understood that this must be where the treasures were kept for the auction.

Anyway, I'm free. Let's see if there are any treasures in today's auction.

He looked at it just the same, not much different from domestic auctions. Most of the things here were antiques like porcelain and calligraphy paintings.

"Hey, what is this"

A surge of magical energy rippled through the air. My divine sense swept across it, revealing a staff.

This staff is made from the bone of a powerful magical beast. Unfortunately, the refining technique was too crude and it only reached the level of an inferior spirit artifact.

If this were in the eyes of an ordinary cultivator, it would be a rare and valuable treasure, but he didn't even glance at it.

He then saw a two-meter-long wooden stake beside the staff, about 30 centimeters in diameter, with a black, pitted and uneven surface.

This piqued his interest a bit, how could an auction be selling wood

Then, his spiritual sense discovered that this wooden stake actually contained a universe within it. Although it still wasn't appealing to him, it was stronger than the staff he had just seen.

Ye Bufan scanned past everything in the same way, and as he looked over all the items on display, a piece of smoke-colored leather in the last corner suddenly caught his attention.

This item doesn't have much spiritual energy, but it exudes an antique and elegant aura. It's definitely something that's been around for a while.

Upon close inspection, I couldn't tell what material it was made of. Despite all these years, there were no signs of damage. It was engraved with various patterns, like a map.

He immediately sensed the extraordinary nature of the object and, upon closer inspection, confirmed that it was indeed a map.

However, it seems to be part of the original picture. Judging from the cut surface, it should be about 1/4. Due to the incompleteness, it is impossible to analyze from the existing lines which part of the map is depicted.

Although it's only a fragmentary piece, this is definitely a good thing. Perhaps when the map is complete, we can discover a treasure or find a unique opportunity.

From the Dragon King's Hall, it can be seen that there are definitely treasures left by ancient times on this land, but they haven't been discovered yet.

Thinking about this, Ye Bufan had already made a decision. He could give up on the other auction items, but he must get his hands on this fragment of the map.

"Ye Jun, what are you thinking about"

At this moment, Watanabe Keiko tugged on his sleeve, bringing him back to the present.

"Oh! Is something the matter"

Ye Bufan asked.

"Ye Jun, don't be afraid, I'm here. He can't do anything to you."

Originally, Watanabe Keiko thought that he had been frightened by Tanaka Koji because he remained silent.

"Would I be afraid of him"

Ye Bufan chuckled, Tanaka Hiroji's cultivation level was nothing in his eyes. He didn't take it seriously at all.

"That's fine..."

Watanabe Yuki, being very perceptive, didn't say anything more. Women like her were a handful before they were tamed, ferocious like dragons. But once they'd let someone in, they became as docile as lambs.

Although she thought in her heart that Ye Bufan was just putting on a brave face, considering the man's pride, she didn't expose him. She only secretly decided to protect this man closely from now on.

Just then, there was another commotion at the door, and a dozen or so people walked in.

These people's clothing is very similar to Tanaka Hiroji's, all wearing the distinctive robes of a yin-yang master, but the markings on their chests are completely different.

The man before them was short and stout, a faint smile playing on his lips that gave him an air of kindness. Yet, there was something about him that radiated danger.

After the short, stout man entered, people immediately rushed forward to bow and greet him, it was obvious that he held a very high status.

Ye Bufan asked, "Who is he"

Watanabe Keiko whispered in his ear, "Sato Koshi of the Sato family has reached the level of a magic master, not inferior to Tanaka Kouji at all."

Seeing the two people speaking too intimately, Tanaka Koji's murderous intent intensified on his face, wishing he could immediately kill this Chinese man.

However, now that it's an auction and with Watanabe Yuki here, he can only temporarily suppress the murderous intent in his heart.

Both belonging to the Shikigami world, Sato Kaki and Tanaka Hirokazu are completely different styles. Sato Kaki always has a smile on his face, giving people a feeling of spring breeze.

He may seem harmless, but you can tell this person is a true wolf in sheep's clothing. If you're fooled by his kindness, you'll be devoured without a trace.

"Oh, Miss Chiyoye, Miss Kyouko, you're here too"

Given his family's standing, he was also seated in the front row of the auction, right next to Ye Bufan and his companions. He warmly greeted Watanabe Keiko and others.

Ishikawa Chiyoko politely nodded, while Watanabe Keiko simply ignored him. Her eyes were fixed solely on Ye Bufan, with no interest whatsoever in anyone else.

Sato Koshi, on the other hand, was smiling nonchalantly and looked towards Tanaka Koji who was a little further away.

"Isn't this Mr. Tanaka Why does he look so unwell"

Ye Bufan thought to himself, as expected, this guy isn't a good person. He started provoking Tanaka Hirokazu's anger right after arriving here.

"It's none of your concern."

Tanaka Hiroji snorted and turned his head away.

At this moment, the time for the auction arrived. A beautiful woman wearing a kimono, who was also an auctioneer, walked onto the stage.

"Distinguished guests, welcome to today's auction..."

After some polite pleasantries, the auctioneer officially began.

"Esteemed guests, our first item up for auction today is quite special. Our expert appraiser on site has said that it's a rare and valuable artifact, truly priceless..."

The female auctioneer, highly experienced, quickly elevated the aura of this piece, piquing the interest of everyone present. She then announced, “Now, let’s unveil our first item up for auction: The Dragonbone Staff.”

Soon, an attendant brought the staff from the treasure chamber onto the auction block.

Ye Bufan's mouth twitched with a smile. This marketplace truly dared to say anything, even coming up with a name like "Dragonbone Staff".

This thing is just a monster's bone refined. If it were dragon bones, even a fool could refine it into a spiritual treasure, instead of the inferior spirit weapon it is now.

But others lacked his vision, and the moment the staff appeared on stage, it caused an uproar.

Dragonbone Staff, the very name alone drew in countless eyes.

But they also clearly knew that with two prominent Onmyoji families present, there was no chance for them.

Tanaka Koji and Sato Kishi came to the auction together, they probably came for this thing.

On stage, the auctioneer continued, "Ladies and gentlemen, this is a rare artifact. Don't miss this opportunity! Now let's start the bidding. The starting price is $1 million, with a minimum increase of $100,000 each time..."

After the starting price was announced, there was an uproar in the room. One million US dollars is equivalent to seven or eight million yuan, and this is only the starting price, which shows how precious it is. It remains to be seen what height it will eventually sell for.aking off.Middle Stage of Virtual Fairy, Late Stage of Virtual Fairy……, Early Stage of Profound Immortal, Middle Stage of Profound Immortal……Leng Qingqiu originally possessed extraordinary talent.
