Chapter 0767: People from the Golden Ape Clan?!

After leaving Tianjie, Huang Long and the others headed straight back to the Naisi Estate. Once there, Huang Long took out the immortal artifacts he had previously refined and reprocessed them with Heavenly Fire one by one. Before they knew it, two days passed.
That day, Lu Su came to consult Huang Long about whether it was time to go to the Fengming Merchant Guild to bid on the Stone Essence. “Then let’s go,” said Huang Long. He stood up, left the courtyard, and headed with Lu Su and the others toward the Fengming Merchant Guild. Along the way, Lu Su briefly explained some details about this auction.
However, when Lu Su mentioned that the seller wanted to trade goods instead of using money for the Stone Essence, Huang Long was stunned. “Trade goods?”
“Yes, master!” Lu Su nodded.
Huang Long suddenly understood. After all, the Stone Essence couldn’t be purchased with divine stones, and those at the level of Supreme Gods or above didn’t lack divine stones. Trading goods? Huang Long felt relieved.
Originally, he wasn’t sure about bidding on the Stone Essence, but now he no longer had such concerns. Although the Stone Essence was rare, if traded for goods, Huang Long was confident he could acquire it—after all, his Five Prison Divine Cauldron contained over thirty top-tier immortal artifacts!
What did top-tier immortal artifacts represent in this Hongmeng Realm?! Sacred King Spiritual Treasures! Hongmeng Spiritual Treasures! Huang Long doubted there was anyone richer or more powerful than himself when it came to treasures.
Before long, Huang Long and the others arrived at the Fengming Merchant Guild. Guided by a beautiful woman from the Tianfeng Clan, they passed through the front hall and entered the guild’s auction hall.
The Fengming Merchant Guild’s auction hall was enormous! At first glance, it resembled a large square.
By the time Huang Long and the others arrived, many powerful warriors from various noble families had already gathered in the auction hall. Perhaps due to the competitions on Tian Tai or the rarity of the items up for auction, there were many bidders this time.
Huang Long and the others found a seat in a relatively back area and sat down.
After entering the auction hall, Wei Lie sat in the VIP room, listening to his subordinates report, and nodded, saying, “I understand.”
“Are there any other instructions, Great Elder?” asked the senior attendant from the Tianfeng Clan respectfully.
“If possible, investigate what kind of elixir the Naisi family is trying to create using these materials,” Wei Lie said after pondering for a moment.
Yet he also knew it would be difficult to find out unless a Supreme God-level warrior intervened—otherwise, Lu Su and the others wouldn’t reveal it. That’s why he used the word “if possible.”

The senior minister of the Tianfeng clan bowed respectfully. Wei Lie dismissed him and then looked through the VIP room toward where Huang Long and the others were. Not long after Huang Long and his group arrived, the Fengming Auction Hall began the auction. This time, in addition to that stone essence, many of the items up for auction were precious treasures from the Hongmeng Realm. However, the first item was a video of a fierce battle between two supreme divine warriors. While such a video might not be particularly valuable to those above the rank of supreme divine, it was highly treasured by those below that rank, as they could learn useful tactics and attack methods from it. Moreover, these two supreme divine warriors were very famous in the Hongmeng Realm—one was Luo Ha, the third elder of the Silver Fox clan, and the other was Newwen, the fifth elder of the Thunder Roc clan! Both of them were familiar to Huang Long, especially Newwen, who was currently trapped by Huang Long within the Zhou Tian Xing Dou formation of the Chaos Bell. Of course, Huang Long did not participate in bidding for the video of their battle—Newwen need not be mentioned, and although Luo Ha was strong, he posed no threat to Huang Long at all, so there was no need to buy the video to study his attack techniques. In the end, the video of their battle was purchased by a clan patriarch for trillions of divine stones. Although trillions of divine stones might not mean much to some large clans, they represented the entire wealth of some smaller clans in the Hongmeng Realm. Pi Long Zherom couldn’t help but mutter, “If I run out of money in the future, I’ll get myself a battle video too!” Hearing this, Huang Yi snorted and said, “Those are the famous third elder of the Silver Fox clan and the fifth elder of the Thunder Roc clan. And you? I doubt even ten million divine stones would be bid for you.” Ten million divine stones? Of course, Huang Yi was deliberately belittling Pi Long’s worth. No matter how unrenowned Pi Long might be, a video of a supreme divine battle would cost far more than that. Pi Long spat out some dragon breath, feeling frustrated. Why did this girl always look down on him? Without Li Yifeng around, things were really tough for him. If only he had asked his master to let Li Yifeng come along too. Pi Long thought to himself that if Li Yifeng were here, with him around, the girl might shift her focus, and he wouldn’t have to suffer so much. The auction continued. The second item up for auction was a supreme divine artifact, the famous weapon of the leader of a now-extinct Hongmeng race.

In the Hongmeng Realm, although it is said to have three thousand Hongmeng races, this is merely a saying. In reality, since the birth of the Hongmeng Realm, some of these races have been wiped out by other races and completely disappeared. The famous weapon of the leaders of these extinct races was a mid-tier Supreme Divine Sword, its blade red in color. When placed on the auction block, the temperature of the entire square rose significantly. What was even more strange was that the red light surrounding the blade condensed into a divine artifact shaped like a tiger. During the auction, the sword roared like a tiger, intimidating all who heard it. “This Supreme Divine Artifact actually has a spirit!” “With such a solidified spirit, this mid-tier Supreme Divine Artifact is even more precious than higher-tier ones!” Generally speaking, whenever a divine artifact of any rank develops a spirit, its value increases by millions of times, and its power becomes incomparably greater. However, such phenomena are rare—there have been fewer than ten instances throughout the entire Hongmeng Realm. It is easy to imagine just how precious this artifact with a spirit is. Even many elders from prominent families in the VIP room were tempted and bid fiercely. Hearing the continuous bidding, Huang Long shook his head with a smile. A spirit? If spirit were the issue, each of the over thirty top-grade immortal artifacts in his Five Prison Divine Cauldron had spirits that were countless times stronger than this one. Thus, Huang Long paid no attention to the fierce bidding from these powerful family members. In the end, the Supreme Divine Artifact went to a VIP in the VIP room. Although Huang Long had no interest in the artifact itself, he was quite interested in the person who managed to buy it from those powerful competitors. So, he used his Heavenly Eye to take a look. “Someone from the Golden Ape Clan?!” Huang Long was surprised. Through the walls and restrictions, he saw a man and a woman sitting in the VIP room, dressed in the robes of elders from the Golden Ape Clan.
