# Chapter 1089: Terrifying Ferocious Weapon
The eighth desolate stone was as tall as three men, but not very wide. On the desolate stone, there were actually streaks of patterns, from which waves of terrifying baleful aura emanated, making people afraid to approach.
"There might be a Sacred Artifact inside!"
This thought arose in everyone's mind. This terrifying baleful aura was dominated by killing intent, as if a peerless ferocious weapon was buried within the desolate stone. Even the extremely hard desolate stone could not completely seal it, causing people to involuntarily speculate that a ferocious weapon was sealed inside this desolate stone, and it must be extremely powerful.
It was very likely a Sacred Artifact.
The other party had chosen to auction these last two desolate stones deliberately. Besides this desolate stone emitting baleful qi, the final desolate stone was also extraordinary. As long as people took one look at that desolate stone, they would feel their bodies tremble, as if a terrifying ferocious beast was sealed inside, making their hair stand on end.
The Nine Dragons Island had released news, and many people had come specifically for these two desolate stones.
"This desolate stone, starting price six thousand Essence Crystals." The middle-aged man swept his gaze over the crowd with a faint smile, causing everyone to draw in a cold breath. Six thousand Essence Crystals, and that was only the starting price.
No wonder the Nine Dragons Island was auctioning them off. Those who wanted to buy desolate stones were gambling, and they themselves were also gambling. Moreover, the Nine Dragons Island had some special methods to dive into the Desolate Sea to dig out desolate stones. They sent slaves to die while they obtained the desolate stones without any cost, yet could exchange them for astronomical amounts of Essence Crystals. No wonder some said the Nine Dragons Island was extremely wealthy, with a terrifyingly deep foundation.
"This desolate stone, I must have it." Xuanyuan Potian said indifferently. His Sacred Artifact had been destroyed, so he had been wanting to find a Sacred Artifact to replace it. His purpose in coming to the Nine Dragons Island was to try his luck and bid for a Sacred Artifact. This desolate stone in front of him might very well contain a Sacred Artifact sealed inside, so he had to take a gamble.
"Brother Xuanyuan wants it, I will naturally help you!" Yang Zilan spoke up: "Eight thousand Essence Crystals!"
Before coming to the Nine Dragons Island, his family had given him a huge sum, specifically to help Xuanyuan Potian, hoping to continue the marriage that had failed last time. The alliance between the Xuanyuan Clan and the Yang Clan was inevitable.
"This bastard, directly added two thousand!" The crowd cursed Yang Zilan in their hearts. Too despicable.
"Ten thousand!" A faint voice rang out, causing everyone's expressions to stiffen. Another two thousand added. Too ruthless. A group of madmen. They looked toward the speaker, who was the purple-eyed youth.
"Fifteen thousand!" Yang Zilan spoke again, making everyone's hearts sink. They gritted their teeth. Many people's hopes were dashed. Fifteen thousand Essence Crystals directly cut off their thoughts. This had already exceeded the value of an ordinary Sacred Artifact. Fifteen thousand Essence Crystals could train some Venerables. These great families were too wealthy.
This time, even the purple-eyed youth stopped speaking. Fifteen thousand Essence Crystals had already surpassed the value of a low-grade Sacred Artifact. Moreover, there was no guarantee that there really was a Sacred Artifact inside the desolate stone. Adding more would not be worth it.
"Eighteen thousand Essence Crystals!" A calm voice rang out, causing everyone's expressions to freeze. They looked for the speaker and saw another youth, with fair skin and no powerful aura fluctuations on his body. Yet he dared to call out such a terrifying price. He must also have a terrifying identity. No one dared to deceive the Nine Dragons Island. If they couldn't produce the Essence Crystals, they would be seeking death.
This speaker was naturally Lin Feng. While others were focused on the desolate stone, he had been using his divine sense to pay attention to Xuanyuan Potian and Yang Zilan. Since they wanted this desolate stone, he had to make them pay a price.
"Twenty thousand!" Yang Zilan coldly swept his gaze over Lin Feng.
"It seems we haven't reached your limit yet!" Lin Feng sneered in his heart and said faintly: "Twenty-five thousand!"
"Hisss..." The crowd was speechless. Lin Feng didn't even furrow his brow when quoting the price, directly adding five thousand.
"You have a very unfamiliar face. Can you really produce twenty-five thousand Essence Crystals?" Yang Zilan asked tentatively, a hint of coldness in his eyes.
"If Young Master Yang doubts me, you can give up. Then you'll know whether I can produce them or not!" Lin Feng glanced at Yang Zilan indifferently. Yang Zilan's heart tightened. This person recognized him, yet still competed with him.
"Twenty-six thousand!" This time, Yang Zilan didn't dare to add too much.
"Twenty-nine thousand!" Lin Feng contemptuously glanced at Yang Ziye, sneering in his heart. I'll drain you dry.
"Although my family gave me a Sacred Artifact, it doesn't seem enough. This desolate stone might contain one. I hope Brother Yang won't continue to compete with me!"
"He really is from a great family. I wonder which family it is. Do these clan members even let others live?" The crowd silently cursed Lin Feng and Yang Zilan.
"Thirty thousand!" Yang Zilan gritted his teeth. This was all he had.
Seeing Yang Zilan's expression, Lin Feng smiled faintly: "The Yang Clan truly lives up to its reputation. Thirty thousand Essence Crystals is my limit. Since that's the case, I'll let Brother Yang have it!"
Hearing Lin Feng's words, Yang Zilan wished he could swallow him whole. Because of this bastard's interference, he had lost at least ten thousand more Essence Crystals. This was definitely a terrifying number.
Stepping forward, Yang Zilan handed a Storage Ring to the middle-aged man, saying: "This is one hundred mid-grade Essence Crystals, enough for ten thousand Essence Crystals."
Essence Crystals were also graded, with upper, middle, and lower grades. The Essence power contained in mid-grade Essence Crystals was much stronger than that in lower-grade ones, and their value was many times greater. For Venerables who comprehended Essence, high-grade Essence Crystals could play a role that inferior ones could not match, so their value differed by a hundred times.
"Alright, I'll split open the desolate stone now." The middle-aged man laughed heartily. With the auction reaching a sky-high price of thirty thousand, the Nine Dragons Island was naturally the happiest.
Yang Zilan stepped back, and then the middle-aged man began to split the desolate stone. He didn't dare to be too reckless and still shaved it off bit by bit. As the middle-aged man's terrifying power shaved off the desolate stone, the killing aura became more and more terrifying.
"Could there really be a terrifying ferocious weapon?" The crowd stared intently at the desolate stone. At this point, it was impossible to say there was nothing inside.
As the desolate stone debris continuously fell, the middle-aged man's expression gradually became serious. Such a terrifying killing and baleful aura.
"Buzz!" The desolate stone debris automatically dispersed, and finally, what was inside was revealed.
"A weapon! It really is a weapon!"
Everyone's expressions froze. From within the desolate stone, a killing aura shot up to the sky, rolling endlessly, instilling fear in people's hearts. Too terrifying.
The middle-aged man moved his body further away, his expression growing more and more serious. His speed also increased. Gradually, a peerless ferocious spear appeared before them. The baleful aura shot up to the sky, the killing aura rolled endlessly, and in the void, a terrifying gray current appeared.
"What a terrifying ferocious weapon!"
"Profit!" Yang Zilan's eyes shone with sharp light. Too powerful. This ferocious war spear was terrifying. It definitely surpassed the level of a low-grade Sacred Artifact.
Xuanyuan Potian clenched his hands, and his bones made cracking sounds. It was even more powerful than his previous Sacred Artifact. This peerless killing war spear, combined with his domineering killing techniques, who could stop him?
"Brother Yang, let me have it!" Xuanyuan Potian said to Yang Zilan.
Yang Zilan's heart twitched. He was very reluctant, but thinking of his family's instructions, he smiled and said: "Naturally. I'll give it to Brother Xuanyuan!"
"No need. Brother Yang, keep it for now. After I return to my family, I'll take enough Essence Crystals to exchange with Brother Yang, and also propose marriage to the Yang Clan." Xuanyuan Potian said faintly. The value of a Sacred Artifact was immeasurable. He knew why Yang Zilan was letting him have it, and he also happened to find a stepping stone to let the two terrifying families form an alliance.
"Since Brother Xuanyuan has decided this way, I naturally have no objection." Yang Zilan snickered in his heart. The task assigned by his family was complete. He believed that a Sacred Artifact reward would be in his hands.
Beside him, Yang Ziye's face also showed a hint of brilliant smile, as if she couldn't wait to marry Xuanyuan Potian immediately. Unfortunately, ideals were beautiful, but reality was cruel. There were some things she couldn't foresee now. Otherwise, she would definitely regret everything she had done to Lin Feng.
"Buzz!" The middle-aged man suddenly grasped the war spear in his palm. A terrifying killing intent raged, tearing his clothes. His black hair fluttered. The peerless baleful aura made him feel as if he was on an ancient battlefield, as if a terrifying expert had once held this war spear, killing endlessly, rivers of blood flowing.
"Young Brother Yang, be careful when refining this war spear!" The middle-aged man smiled at Yang Zilan, then stored the war spear into his spatial storage and handed it to Yang Zilan.
"Thank you, Senior." Yang Zilan was excited in his heart.
At this moment, not far away, Lin Feng's gaze coldly swept over this side, sneering in his heart: "Yang Zilan, you'd better not let me find an opportunity!"
Otherwise, Lin Feng wouldn't mind taking Yang Zilan's life as well, and naturally, that powerful war spear would not be spared either!
