Chapter 1731: Divine Dragon Ruin

The masked man was like a hungry wolf that was going after its prey. Evidently, something fishy must have been going on since he gave up bidding on the item all of a sudden. Unfortunately, everyone was still in shock. Chen Xiaobei was the only one that could still calm his mind down so he attempted to figure out what went wrong.

Of course, the auction center would not care about this problem. Once a person won a bid, the person must pay up immediately to receive the item. Feeling frustrated, Chen Xiaobei was left with no other options. He then took out all 450 million middle-grade Spiritual Stones that he earned and another 10,000 medium-grade Spiritual Stones from his savings to pay the auctioneer. Luckily, he still had the 100,000 medium-grade Spiritual Stones that he got from Ouyang Huxiao earlier. At least he would not be completely broke even after spending a huge deal of medium-grade Spiritual Stones.

"What kind of secrets are hiding in these shattered pieces?"

All Chen Xiaobei could see was an ordinary piece of broken metal. There was nothing special about it.

"The Divine Dragon race still hasn't managed to decipher the secret within it... but I'm pretty sure that the secret will be unveiled once we bring it to the Divine Dragon's ruin!"

"Divine Dragon's ruin? What kind of place is that?"

"There are too many people here. Let's take our leave first and talk elsewhere!"

With Ling Qingfeng glancing around and acting cautiously, Chen Xiaobei could guess that the subject about the ruins was Divine Dragon Starfield's top secret.

"Alright! Let's take our leave now!"

Chen Xiaobei then stood up and left the auction center. After that, Chen Xiaobei and Ling Qingfeng went to chat at the restroom while Wugui Kochiro flew the spacecraft.

"Divine Dragon's ruin is Divine Dragon Starfield's top secret! We will never tell any outsiders no matter what, but I saw that you have come up with all Spiritual Stones to help me to get the things that I want! Considering that, I have decided to tell you about this top secret! You have to promise me that you will not tell it to another living soul!"

"I can promise you that! I will keep this secret in my heart forever! No one will know about it! And if I tell others about it, I pray that I will be struck by lightning!"

"Alright! Alright! You don't have to curse yourself... the Divine Dragon's ruin is an independent hidden realm in Divine Dragon Starfield! You should know that the entire universe is made up of the shattered pieces of the Void Land! Divine Dragon Starfield was part of the Void Land! During that time, our starfield was ruled by a real dragon, and our ancestors were the offspring of real dragons and humans! Hence, the Divine Dragon's bloodline in our body. Hence, we worship only the Dragon God! After that, I have no idea what happened to Divine Dragon Starfield. It all started going downhill so the Dragon God created an independent realm as his home before he died! His body was left there for millions of years. In the end, his body transformed into a top-tier Spiritual Channel - providing endless Spiritual Qi to the people that lived in Divine Dragon Starfield. Also, we don't call it the Dragon God's grave because it doesn't sound so good. Hence the name, Divine Dragon's ruin!"

And that was the whole truth from Ling Qingfeng.

"For hundreds of thousands of years, Divine Dragon's ruin has always been fine. Why did you tell me that all the elites from your starfield were summoned there?"

"That's a good question right there! Recently, a crack appeared in the realm! A lot of people from other starfields have taken this opportunity to enter the realm to attempt stealing our Dragon God's body! To protect the body, the royal family in my starfield had to summon all available elites to deal with the intruders!"

"Does that mean that there are more and more enemies and they are getting stronger as well? Is that why all the elites were summoned there?"

"You are right! Only elites with Divine Dragon's bloodline can enter from the entrance! That's why normal elites can't enter the real to help fight off the intruders!"

"I understand now! What about the shattered pieces that we bought earlier? What does that have to do with this matter?"

"After the major war that happened during ancient times, it seems that a few broken pieces dropped from the Dragon God himself! After collecting all the broken pieces together, my people figured out that they could be pieced together to form a long sword. The piece that you just bought is the final piece to the puzzle!"

"What a coincidence!"

"You are right! This is indeed, a great coincidence! My body went stiff the moment I saw the broken piece up for auction earlier! My guts told me that the puzzle will finally be solved when I bring this home!"

"You might be right about that! But then again, have you thought that all the broken pieces should have been left in the ruin? How did this particular one appear in the auction center?"

"About this?"

"Could it be that someone from the royal family had brought it out?"

"No! Not possible! All the members of the royal family are kind hearted and gentle! They would have never committed such an atrocious crime!"

"Then, could it have been the enemies?"

"That's possible! When the broken pieces fell off the Dragon God, some of our enemies managed to get their hands on them. Over the years, we had to get it back piece by piece from our enemies!"

"In other words, your enemy was at the auction center earlier! After deducting the commission for the auction center, the rest of the Spiritual Stones are in his pocket now!"

"This..."

Bewildered, Ling Qingfeng was surprised that Chen Xiaobei could see the big picture.

"What should we do now? Go kill him?"

"It's too late for that! Our enemies are hiding in the dark and we are out in the open! If I'm not mistaken, he might even be following us right now!"

"Following us? Why?"

"That's because he knows that we will head to the ruin once we get our hands on the item! By following us, he will know where the entrance to the run is!"

"Our enemies are entering from the crack in the realm anyway! Why bother to look for the real entrance?"

"If I'm not mistaken, enemies are trying to seal off the entrance and launch a powerful strike from the crack! By doing so, the members of the royal family will have nowhere to run!"
