Put Away Your Divine Techniques Now!-Chapter 995 - 293: All the Same

Chapter 293 [All the Same]

To call it Divine Beast bloodline is an exaggeration.

Even in the Domain Realm, so-called Divine Beasts are beyond the reach of ordinary cultivators. Even first-rate aristocratic families and sect clans cannot easily access Divine Beasts.

However, what people commonly refer to as Divine Beasts are, in fact, Exotic Beasts—simply distinguishing them from Mortal Beasts.

For example, when Chen Yan encountered Yun Zhao that day, the few dragon horses pulling Yun Zhao’s carriage were Exotic Beasts.

The middle-aged Ghost Race man speaking on the platform, everyone understood his meaning clearly, not getting entangled in the term "Divine Beast."

Moreover, the Ghost Race’s ancestors were mountain tribes; the Southern Border is mountainous, with many beasts in the mountains. There were several tribes within the mountain tribes known for their Beast Taming skills, possessing some unique methods.

After these skills were integrated into the Ghost Race, they were all inherited together.

The Exotic Beasts bred by the Ghost Race are indeed impressive, though they rarely put them up for public auction.

At this moment, hearing this, many people were intrigued and focused on observing the Exotic Beasts in the boxes on the platform.

Chen Yan, naturally, was no exception, though he instinctively glanced at a celestial crane on the platform.

Hmm, how to put it...

I’ve eaten it, and it tastes nice.

Back at the Joyful Sect, Senior Brother Wang secretly caught the celestial crane guardian of the Inner Sect’s Immortal Mountain, and the two of them had sneaked to eat the meat.

Quite a tonic!

·

On the platform, the middle-aged Ghost Race man had already pulled out the first box. After opening it, he took out a juvenile lynx-like creature and showcased it around.

He used a loud voice to explain some basic information, which spread across the venue.

Four Colors Mountain Lynx.

Bred using the bloodline of the Red-Eyed Flying Cloud Tiger and the Six-Eared Lynx Cat that inhabit the mountains.

The Red-Eyed Flying Cloud Tiger is a fierce Exotic Beast with strong combat power, a savage nature, and, crucially, it can fly and can even be ridden.

Its only weakness is that it is hard to tame; without sufficient cultivation, one can easily be bitten back.

On the other hand, the Six-Eared Lynx Cat is a dexterous mountain beast, adept at leaping and climbing, intelligent, and can perform excellent reconnaissance tasks if well-trained—the Six-Eared Lynx Cat itself possesses transformation divine techniques.

The hybrid of these two perfectly neutralizes the weaknesses of the Red-Eyed Flying Cloud Tiger’s fierce and untamable nature, thanks to the Six-Eared Lynx Cat’s intelligence mitigating many of those flaws.

Of course, it has its weaknesses—the combat power is somewhat diminished compared to the original Red-Eyed Flying Cloud Tiger.

But it retains the ability to fly.

Starting bid is 200,000 coins.

After some bidding, it was purchased by a second-rate family from Central State, with the final price doubling to 400,000 coins.

At the same time, the auction personnel not only took the box offstage to be handed over to the attendants from this family but also presented a set of Ghost Race’s provided breeding methods.

·

Then came the celestial crane—which indeed was the same species as the celestial crane guardian of the Inner Sect’s Immortal Mountain at the Joyful Sect, though it had been crossbred.

It’s said to enhance the riding experience and even improve breeding capabilities.

These guardian cranes should be in flocks; one or two alone would seem quite dilapidated.

A flock of guardian celestial cranes soaring in the clouds of an Immortal Mountain—now that is the sight of an Immortal Family!

However, even top-tier aristocratic sects and families cannot afford to raise them.

So, in fact, the market for this item is not large—a small family simply cannot afford it. Owning one or two is pointless; maintaining a large flock would bankrupt them.

Starting bid is 200,000 coins.

This item piqued the interest of representatives from first-rate sect families in the rear private rooms.

The third private room on the east and the farthest side private room on the west both engaged in a round of bidding.

The atmosphere seemed somewhat tense.

Chen Yan seemed to have noticed that these two families perhaps already had some discord.

Initially, only one was interested, but the other clearly intended to create trouble for its rival by artificially inflating the price.

After some struggle, the family in the third private room on the east bought it for 450,000 coins.

The middle-aged Ghost Race man on the platform smiled and had the cage holding the celestial crane pushed away.

Subsequently... another cage was brought up, and inside it was...

Another celestial crane!

The middle-aged Ghost Race man stood on the platform, smiling, and said, "The one just sold was a male crane; the one now for auction is a female crane.

You need both to pair to produce offspring."

As soon as these words were spoken, the whole audience fell silent, and after a few seconds, there was an uproar!

Chen Yan sat on the mountain platform, seemingly already hearing curses coming from the third private room on the left.

Good heavens!

These Ghost Race people are so cunning!

·

The bidding for the female crane was even more intense than the previous one!

The family in the farthest private room on the right seemed determined to inflate the price.

Meanwhile, the family in the third room on the left found themselves in a tight spot, forced to grit their teeth and raise their bids repeatedly.

Because... only by pairing the male and female can they breed offspring!

Having already purchased the male crane earlier, if they did not buy the female crane... the male crane purchased earlier would only be a decoration upon return—at most, roast it and eat the meat.

At this point, gritting their teeth was necessary.

Finally, after several rounds of bidding, the price of the female crane climbed to 1.4 million coins before it was finally bought by the family in the third private room on the left.
