Supreme Origin: Time King

Chapter 11: XI Spirit Body Manual

The moment Natalie said Spirit Body Manual, everyone in the crowd went silent.

Compared to everything on the auction, a Spirit Body Manual were infinitely more valuable. Because the only way to become a Spirit Cultivator is having been born with a Spirit Body or training on a Spirit Body Manual. The only problem is to gather the necessary materials to build a Spirit Body.

In the past, the Two Great Paths in Cultivation were the Mortal Cultivation to reach the Fake Immortal and the True Immortal Stage or the Divine Cultivation to attain a Divine Body become a Demigod and then a Deity.

Between the two, Divine Cultivators have many more advantages like the Divine Body, the Divine Abilities given to them and the fact there is a god behind them.

But a few million years ago, a mortal from Midgard, one of the nine Planes governed by the Asgardians, Born with a body different from others of his race, he created the first Spirit Body Manual And founded an entire new path. Even after many years there are people who said he reached a Realm compared to a God, he was the first Saint known as the Shining King.

After a brief moment of shock, the crowd recovered and sent their burning gazes at the ancient book in the middle of the hall. Even Natalie seemed a bit lost

"It's only a Spirit Body Manual, what's so special about that." Right when Elijah was looking at the Body Manual, Shadow's voice sounded within Elijah.

"Kid, you just keep training. The day that you reach Sky Foundation, You will see the difference between this Spirit Body Manual and your Asgardian Body! !" After Shadow finished her thought, she became silent again.

...

"Everyone, this Spirit Body Manual was found by a mercenary in the skeleton forest. It must have been left behind by an ancestor so it will not bring anyone any trouble after they buy it. So, everyone can bid without worrying about the consequences." Natalie held up the Book and lightly said.

"Absolute Ice Body, bottom price, 250,000 Gold Coins!"

After she called out the bottom price, the auction house became visibly quieter. Obviously, very few people have the wealth to buy such an expensive item.

Elijah saw that the two Family leaders from his town and other few nobles who visibly shivered. But they could do nothing about the price, for something as valuable as this, they would be willing to pay such a high price to obtain it. Even if they didn't want to buy it, someone else would.

A bald, middle aged man yelled out: "250,000!"

"260,000!" Right the first bid, a green robed merchant also called out his price.

Giving an evil eye to the merchant, the bald middle aged man yelled out again: "270,000!"

"300,000!" Right when the previous two were about to quit bidding, Theodore finally called out his bid.

"330,000!" A voice came out from from a Private Room.

When everyone looked to the one who made the bid they were scared. "Shit! It's that madman?"

This "madman" was Ray, the president of the city's Mercenary Association.' The Mercenary wanted in a dozen kingdoms and by the Church of Zeus in the Radiant Sky Empire for killing the pope's bastard son.

Coldly glancing at Ray, Violet coldly said: "350,000!"

Theodore forced out: "370,000!"

...

When the price got to 430,000, Ray had to stop bidding. 430,000 was enough to force the powerful Green Lake City's Mercenary Association into a financial crisis.

"450,000!" Seeing Ray again, Theodore did not get a chance to celebrate before Violet's price. Looking at Violet, Theodore was filled with rage. In the three families of copper cities, Branches and Miller were allies, the Branches that have a Duke in the family do not need this Body Manual. While Miller and Reyes didn't have any, which is why Theodore was willing to pay any price to get this Spiritual Body Manual.

Under the gleeful look of Violet, Theodore clenched his teeth and spit out: "460,000!"

"500,000!" Them Violet raised the price to a whole new level!

At the center of the auction hall, watching the two fight over the bids, Natalie's beautiful smile became even more charming.

"600,000!" With his eyes red, Theodore finally decided to raise the price again after a brief pause.

"Alright, you win." Contrary to everyone's predictions, when Violet heard Theodore's proposal, Violet just laughed and teased Theodore.

The happiness in Theodore's expression was quickly replaced with a dark face, as he realized he had been played.

"Fuck! I have been cheated! I'll remember this Violet!" After cursing at Violet, Theodore raised his head to look at the crowd laughing. Even though he was extremely angry and sad, he wasn't one to be dictated by his emotions and with tears on his face, he tried to suppress his emotions.

"Lady Natalie, should the auction end?"

Trying not to laugh at Theodore's sad stare, Natalie smiled calmly. Her eyes held a hint of pity, looking at the naive Theodore, so she tapped the hammer in his hand.

"This Spirit Body Manual shall go to Miller's Family Chief, Theodore Miller!"

After the final moments of the auction, Elijah and his father smiled and slowly got up, and walked to take the things they bought.

Outside the auction house, Elijah was testing his new hammer when Henry saw his old friend Theodore walking alone on the streets. "Theodore, my friend, are you okay?" Theodore raised his head, seeing his friend he said with a depressed voice.

"I'm good, you don't need to worry, it's just that bitch. I don't know how I loved her for twenty years and didn't realized she was only playing with me, in the end she married that traitor Michael. And I'm still playing with her hand. Before we left the auction house she came to me and said to not be angry because 'we're friends', you heard me? She said 'FRIENDS!'. It's not as if I regretted marrying my wife, I love her and our three children, but this bitch makes me so frustrated."

Henry felling sorry for his depressed friend said."Son, go to the inn and wait for me. I will drink with your uncle Theodore until he's a bit better." and he take his friend to the Pub while his son walked to the inn.

Seeing his father leaving with Theodore, Elijah heard the shadow's voice "Kid, remember to not ever become a pitiful man like that, okay?"
