Chapter 1483: Chapter 1483: Gift
"Then I really have to congratulate you. Lan, you just bid on that Sky Horse Guardian Gem, right? My father said this gem will be given to you as a gift. We will explain this to the auction house, so you don’t have to pay." Li Menglong said.
Such a good thing? Lan Xuanyu was slightly moved, "The Sky Horse Sect Leader is too kind. How can I accept this?"
Li Menglong smiled and said: "Achieving God Rank is a great event. Our Sky Horse Clan and the Dragon Clan have been good friends for generations. In the future, you will surely become a Dragon Knight. Of course, we must congratulate you."
"I dare not refuse the gift of an elder, so it would be disrespectful not to accept it. Brother Li, please thank the Sect Leader for me." Lan Xuanyu agreed without further ado.
Li Menglong laughed and said: "Alright, I will convey your thanks. Yesterday I had some engagements with my father and didn’t have time to greet you. Do you and Miss Xiuxiu have time tonight? May I invite you both for a meal?"
After a brief thought, Lan Xuanyu replied: "Sure, it should be me being hospitable instead."
Li Menglong laughed heartily and said: "Either way, we’ll do as you say."
After the brief conversation ended, Lan Xuanyu narrowed his eyes slightly. Being given eleven thousand Sky Dragon Crystal Coins like that, this is no small gift. Through this auction, he had understood very clearly the purchasing power of Sky Dragon Crystal Coins. The artifact was bought for only sixteen thousand!
No matter if it’s Li Menglong or the Sky Horse Sect Leader, their intent to befriend him was quite obvious; it is clear they value his future potential. As his status continued to rise, he was no longer just an up-and-comer in the Dragon Horse Federation. Achieving God Rank marked his true entry into the ranks of the powerful, and his real entrance into the core of power.
There is indeed a big difference between being a God and before becoming one. Although the Sky Dragon Assembly had controlled the dissemination of news concerning his breakthrough, given the closeness between the Sky Horse Clan and the Dragon Clan, it was not surprising that news had reached the Sky Horse Sect Leader on the Sky Dragon Planet. However, this was also good as the higher his status, the more varied information and resources he could access, greatly benefiting his cultivation and improvement.
Upon reaching God Rank, his cultivation speed had not diminished, which was quite different from what he knew about the God Rank. One reason is the Dragon God’s bloodline, another is the richness of resources. That day when helping Zhang Chujia restore youth, several tens of Heaven Nurturing Crystal Stones’ worth of life energy was injected forcefully into his body by Zhang Chujia, which indeed greatly aided him. Normally, he wouldn’t be so extravagant with his cultivation!
The upcoming war was his most important opportunity, as the trials of war would further stimulate his potential. Strive for an early advancement to the Super God Level, and with the power of the Dragon God’s bloodline, he would then have the ability to protect himself even against the Sky Dragon Leader.
The auction continued, and after the climax caused by the Sky Horse Guardian Gem, the bidders’ emotions were stirred up again. High-quality items kept appearing in the auction.
However, after going through the Sky Horse Guardian Gem, Lan Xuanyu had an idea. He occasionally bid, winning several auction items. He didn’t buy weapons or armor but specifically chose items similar to the Sky Horse Guardian Gem that could provide strong protection.
The defensive equipment and weapons of each clan have their own racial characteristics, which generally are not suitable for humans. Most of them are not suitable, even if the cost-effectiveness is good. Buying them with no use doesn’t make sense. However, items like the Sky Horse Guardian Gem are very useful as they don’t all require divine consciousness to activate. Some can be activated using spiritual power or energy, which is excellent for giving to his companions as life-saving items.
"The next auction item is quite suitable for group use. It was manufactured by the Xiti Tribe, which our Dragon Horse Federation excels at producing, and there are a total of one thousand sets of Shape-Changing Armor. These Shape-Changing Armors possess excellent defensive power, and their biggest feature is the term ’shape-changing,’ which allows them to be used by any race. Let’s have a staff member demonstrate." The Star Moon Dragon Knight Li Jingyi said on stage.
A member of the Blue Sea Tribe stepped onto the stage, holding something resembling a metal ball in both hands, about the size of a fist, glowing faintly with a dim light. The surface was iron-grey and not very eye-catching, with fine lines faintly visible, likely akin to a soul magic array.
This Blue Sea Tribesman walked to the center of the auction stage, raised the metal ball above his head with both hands, and in the next moment, a flash of light swept downward in an iron-grey streak. Immediately thereafter, an entirely black armor covered his entire body. The armor, during its coverage, flowed like mercury until it fully formed when the shaping process completed.
The Blue Sea Tribesman’s body expanded overall, and a pair of seemingly very hard folded wings spread open from his back. In the next instant, light spouted from the rear of the folded wings, propelling him skyward like a cannonball, turning into a small black dot in the blink of an eye.
In the next moment, the black figure fell from the sky and lightly landed on the auction stage.
Star Moon Dragon Knight Li Jingyi said: "This Shape-Changing Armor is crafted by the Xiti Tribe based on the characteristics of the mechas of the Douluo Federation’s humans, combined with our tribe’s specialties. It is compact, highly flexible, suitable for any race, and can be shaped according to different body types. It has extremely strong defensive power and can significantly augment one’s own energy, and even has the ability to fight in space. It is suitable for fighters of various power levels below God Rank. A total of one thousand sets are available, each with a starting price of one hundred Sky Dragon Crystal Coins. The starting price for a thousand sets is one hundred thousand. Sold as a whole, no splitting."
One hundred thousand Sky Dragon Crystal Coins is not a small amount, but there are as many as one thousand sets of this Shape-Changing Armor.
Lan Xuanyu scanned it with divine consciousness and couldn’t help but be somewhat shocked. He didn’t know what material this Shape-Changing Armor was made of, but the energy material within was somewhat obscure, yet very profound, giving one a very deep feeling. To probe inside, he even needed to increase his divine consciousness to penetrate it.
This thing could at least be comparable to the defensive power of a purple-grade mecha! And with this small size, its value isn’t what a purple-grade mecha could be equivalent to. One hundred thousand Sky Dragon Crystal Coins is really not expensive, especially since it can suit various races. With the war about to commence, this kind of auction item would likely be very popular. Hmm, he also quite liked it!
This armor’s effect was very good; it even covered the face, meaning that once worn, from the exterior, one couldn’t tell who was inside, only the race could be judged by body shape. It was suitable for the Thirty-Three Skywing, and others could be given to the Blue Sea Tribe.
This must be acquired.
"The bidding starts now at one hundred thousand Sky Dragon Crystal Coins, with a minimum increment of one thousand Sky Dragon Crystal Coins. Please place your bids." On stage, Li Jingyi said with a smile.
Just as Lan Xuanyu expected, this batch of Shape-Changing Armor was very popular. Wealthy representatives from various clans almost immediately engaged in fierce competition.
"One hundred eleven thousand!"
"One hundred eleven thousand five hundred!"
"One hundred twelve thousand..."
The prices were almost jumping upward in increments of five thousand. The Xiti Tribe is one of the top ten clans and excels in manufacturing various weapons and equipment, having an extraordinary sensitivity to different metals. The Xiti Tribe itself is relatively neutral within the Dragon Horse Federation but is a key target of courting by both the Dragon Clan and the Sky Horse Clan. Especially with the Dragon Horse Federation starting the unified manufacture of warships, the craftsmanship of the Xiti Tribe is indispensable.
Even though he didn’t know how it was done, according to Lan Xuanyu, the Xiti Tribe is currently pretty much allied with the Dragon Clan, with many excellent artisans from the Xiti Tribe on the Sky Dragon Planet, aiding in warship development.

Have a happy weekend.
