“High-level Dragon resource?” David Jones unconsciously thought. He knew that the Dragon-Wielding power on his Arcane Star wouldn't fluctuate randomly unless there was a high-level Dragon-type treasure. This is a Fire area, not Dragon, could there be a bargain at the auction?” With this idea in mind, David Jones followed the familiar feeling of Dragon-Wielding power.

After a while, he stopped at a counter filled with Fire-type ores.

David Jones' curious gaze swept over the Fire-type resources displayed in the transparent counter, eventually stopping at an unremarkable grayish stone. “That's right, it's this one.”

Sensing the Dragon-Wielding power on his Arcane Star, David Jones finally confirmed the target.

It was a shiny, black rock with a delicate texture and a somewhat strange shape. The entire piece shone like a diamond with its multiple grooves and metallic luster.

(Fire Rock]: Level IV Fire and Rock dual-type resources. A special rock formed by volcanic lava, containing both the extreme violence of Fire-type Arcane Force and the thick, steady power of Rock-type.

It can be absorbed and refined during daily cultivation to improve a pet's immunity to fire and significantly increase physical strength.

David Jones looked at the elegant black Fire Rock in the counter, a hint of doubt in his eyes.

The quality of the resources in the Black Gold Auction House's dark auction was excellent, especially the Fire Rock before him, which was absolutely flawless.

However, what puzzled David Jones was how a Level IV dual-type resource could cause his Dragon-Wielding power to fluctuate.

Even a Level IV Dragon-type resource would hardly cause a fluctuation in his Dragon-Wielding power, let alone the fact that Fire Rock is not a Dragon-type resource.

“Could it be that there's something hidden inside this piece of Fire Rock?” With that thought, David Jones cautiously looked around and noticed there were only a few trainers nearby bidding on items.

Thus, a light golden glow slowly flickered in his eyes as he activated his Penetrating Eye which could see through most things.

“I actually can't see the insides of this Fire Rock, only the pure Fire and Rock Arcane Energy.” David Jones frowned.

Unhke the Identification ability of Penetrating Eye, the Penetrating ability can be obstructed or even fail if the Arcane Energy barrier is strong enough, such as when Rosalind Louise blocked it with her overwhelming Psychic Power.

With his current Class III Arcane Star Cultivation, even if his Penetrating Eye couldn't see into Level IV resources, it should at least be able to see a vague outline.

But now he couldn't even observe the slightest bit of the Fire Rock's interior, fueling his curiosity even more.

He pulled his phone out of his pocket and searched for the recent transaction prices of Fire Rock in the Pet Resources market.

“The recent transaction price of Fire Rock is around 6 million dollars. But the quality of this particular Fire Rock is incredibly high, so the price could go up to 9 million, even to million dollars.”

With that thought, David Jones looked at the box in front of the counter with his Penetrating Eye.

He hadn't used his Penetrating Eye to see the bid list inside the box because it wasn't worth breaking the rules!

After all, it didn't matter to him if he didn't win those bid resources; he wouldn't pay more anyway. But this mysterious Fire Rock was different.

“7 million… 7.8 million… 8 million… 12 million… 13 million… 15 million!”

It seemed the trainers participating in the silent auction didn't consider Star coins as valuable. A Fire Rock was bid up to a staggering 15 million Star coins. With that price, one could buy nearly three of them in the Pet Resources market.

It looked like many capable trainers discovered the peculiarity of this Fire Rock among those who participated in the auction.

To be on the safe side, David Jones thought for a moment and decided to bid 18 million Star coins, which should be enough to secure the rock.

If it weren't for the fear of arousing suspicion from the auction house, he would have even considered bidding a higher price to avoid being surpassed by others later on.

According to David Jones' experience, the resources that could trigger the Dragon-Wielding power were not rare treasures purchasable with Star coins.

David Jones dropped his bid list into the box, then turned and walked towards the Wood area without looking back.

“The competition for the Fire Rock is fierce. It seems I'll have to come back here before the silent auction ends in case someone else snatches it.”

Wood area.

As David Jones admired the diverse array of strange flowers and plants on the counter, a hint of affection appeared in his eyes. However, compared to the mature SS tier elixirs, he was more interested in their seeds.

After all, Rainbow's daily Rain Dance's nurturing ability should not be wasted, as it could bring great wealth.

David Jones only needed to plant low-grade elixir seeds in the Mesona Space, and he could welcome a harvest in just a few days.

Take the raw materials for the Starfall Elixir he was currently refining; it relied almost entirely on Lolo's planting and Rainbow's daily ripening.

Otherwise, merely purchasing the required elixirs for the Starfall Elixir would be financially overwhelming. The profit margin of refining elixirs wouldn't be as significant as it is now.

After selecting several dozen kinds of elixir seeds suitable for planting in the Mesona Space, David Jones fixed his gaze on the two most attractive plants on the counter: Azure Bamboo and Fairy Daffodil.

[Azure Bamboo]: Level V Wood-type resource. Fully mature Azure Bamboo can nurture an Azure Gas that can slightly improve the quality of nearby elixirs by harnessing their energy. It is the primary evolution resource for Commander Azure Bamboo Bear.

[Fairy Daffodil]: Level V Wood and Water dual-type resource. Fairy Daffodil can improve the water quality of rivers and lakes where it resides.

If a colony of Fairy Daffodils is cultivated, ordinary river water can be transformed into Level I Spirit Water. Its flower petals can also purify a trainer's Arcane Star or enhance a pet's Psychic Power.

“These two plants would be perfect gifts for Lolo, who loves gardening!” With that thought, David Jones gritted his teeth, bidding 18 million Star coins for Azure Bamboo and 21 million Star coins for Fairy Daffodil.

Fortunately, both plants were obviously not fully mature and needed to be transplanted for growth and development, so their value was lower, and his bid should be sufficient to win.

“I'm broke!”

David Jones couldn't help but sigh. The large amount of money he just received hadn't even had time to settle before it disappeared!

If he managed to win all of the resources he bid on, his hundred-million Star coin account would be wiped clean, and he wouldn't even have the funds to purchase the required seeds for the Starfall Elixir later on..
