Chapter 250: 5.7 Million Gold Soul Coins, the Golden Radiance Left Arm Bone
Led by the middle-aged manager, Ye Chen, Xiao Xiao, and Wang Dong passed through the magnificent lower hall of the Wanbao Pavilion and entered the elevator. Moments later, they arrived in a completely different world.
The space here was even more luxurious and quiet than the floors below.
A thick dark carpet embroidered with golden soul beast emblems muffled every step.
Soft light did not come from chandeliers, but rather from numerous embedded gemstones lining the walls and ceiling, their gentle glow filling the room with an aura of mystery and prestige.
The air carried the faint fragrance of prized sandalwood incense.
Rows of crystal display cases were arranged precisely, each lit by a focused beam of light. Inside were treasures so rare that even the most seasoned soul masters would lose composure upon seeing them.
Bottles of top-grade medicinal pills exuded their potent aroma, while ores of rarest metals shimmered with cold brilliance. The price beneath each piece was high enough to pain even a Titled Douluo.
This was the Supreme Exhibition Floor—the very heart of Wanbao Pavilion's wealth and influence.
Visitors were almost nonexistent; apart from Ye Chen's group, the entire hall was empty. Normally, this level opened only for grand auctions, and only to those with immense purchasing power.
They wandered until Wang Dong stopped, eyes locked onto one glass pedestal bathed in golden light.
On it floated a half-meter-long arm bone glowing softly with a golden radiance.
It looked as though it were forged from pure molten sunlight, its polished surface flowing with liquid fire. The curvature of the bone was perfect—the shape of power incarnate. Even suspended motionless, it pulsed faintly, radiating dominance.
A pure, sacred light attribute poured from within, carrying a trace of draconic pressure that made the air tighten around them. Even the splendor of the other treasures dimmed beside it.
"Ye Chen, I want this one," Wang Dong said, eyes shining with desire. "I can feel it—it's calling to me."
Ye Chen walked closer to read the small plaque beside the display:
Golden Radiance Left Arm Bone
Origin: Ten-Thousand-Year Golden Earth Dragon King
Attribute: Flame of Light
Potential: May contain an offensive-type skill
Price: 9,500,000 Gold Soul Coins
The massive price was carved into a gold plate, catching every glint of light.
"Wha—nine million five hundred thousand?!" Xiao Xiao gasped, covering her mouth in disbelief.
That was an astronomical figure. Even if she sold herself, she couldn't afford a fraction of it.
"Yeah… that's ridiculously expensive." Wang Dong hesitated when she saw the label herself.
Ordinary ten-thousand-year bones usually cost around three million, but this one—nearly ten million—was another level entirely.
It carried a trace of pure Light Dragon bloodline, even if faint. That purity alone elevated its worth beyond imagination—pure bloodlines always surpassed mixed ones, no matter how diluted.
And because light-element soul masters were so rare, demand was low—but so was availability. Its price remained sky-high, so much so that it had sat unsold for years.
Still, soul bones didn't decay—kept within jade insulation, they could last for centuries. The Pavilion had no need to rush a sale.
Now, however, a perfect candidate had appeared.
"This way, honored guest," said the manager hurriedly, smiling brightly. "With the Supreme Card of Dean Xian Lin'er, you are entitled to a forty percent discount. Nine million five hundred thousand minus forty percent brings the price to five million seven hundred thousand."
Such discounts existed only with the Supreme Card—lower-tier members couldn't even request to see treasures of this rarity.
Only holders of the Supreme Card had universal buying rights within Wanbao Pavilion. Even the most prized items, so long as the payment was made, could be purchased at 60% of market value.
That was the true power of the Supreme Card.
"Forty percent off?!"
Both Wang Dong and Xiao Xiao inhaled sharply.
That was a discount worth nearly four million! The savings alone were enough to buy an additional ten-thousand-year soul bone.
The value of the Supreme Card suddenly felt overwhelming.
"Alright, pay for it," Ye Chen said casually, pulling out his credit card.
His movements were unhurried, as if he were spending small change rather than millions.
He had recently received large dividends from Xian Lin'er and additional stipends from the academy. In total, his current funds exceeded six million gold coins—even before loans.
With spare funds on hand, there was no need to borrow.
The manager accepted the card reverently and placed it into the soul-powered scanner.
Beep-beep-beep.
Ye Chen entered his code; the transaction completed smoothly.
In this world, a stored-value card functioned much like a bank card—but with fewer safeguards. The holder's strength served as security. If stolen or lost, one either recovered the funds by force or accepted the loss.
After all, those wealthy enough to own such cards were no ordinary civilians—they were strong soul masters or nobles.
"Honored sir, here is your item~"
Thrilled by the million-coin sale, the manager beamed and personally unlocked the crystal case. Carefully, he enclosed the soul bone in a fine jade container—crafted for energy stabilization—before presenting it to Ye Chen.
Even the box itself was worth over 100,000 gold coins.
"Wang Dong," Ye Chen said, handing the case to her gently, "this is what I promised you."
Wang Dong's heart raced wildly as she gazed at the radiant soul bone nestled within.
A wave of warmth spread through her—its light-attribute energy resonated perfectly with her body.
The attraction from deep within her bloodline was undeniable; her soul power even began circulating faster just holding it.
Once she absorbed it, her combat power would soar to new heights.
Soul bone fusion had its nuances—when perfectly matched, the enhancement was amplified by twenty to thirty percent beyond standard growth.
For Wang Dong, this piece wasn't merely precious—
—it was destiny itself.
