Thor's gaze was somewhat peculiar at this moment.
"Do you even know why we're looking at you?" he asked.
After saying this, Thor fell silent.
Following the auctioneer's introduction on stage, the group also learned about the Cangyan Behemoth.
The Cangyan Behemoth was a type of Starry Behemoth.
It was born at Planetary level, and upon reaching adulthood could achieve Domain Lord level.
It possessed two innate secret techniques: Flame Ring and Enhancement.
Both were offensive techniques, fairly standard in nature.
However, even so, it was far superior to most humans.
After all, the Cangyan Behemoth's genetic level was sixfold.
Previously, the group hadn't bothered to check the rest of the auction catalog, so they had no idea that this auction included live Starry Behemoths.
It should be noted that a live Starry Behemoth was worth hundreds or even thousands of times more than its corpse.
This was because a live Starry Behemoth could be possessed!
Even humans with Domain Lord-level bloodlines would likely seize the chance to possess a Starry Behemoth without hesitation.
Soon, the price of this Starry Behemoth surpassed one million Mixed Element Units.
It ultimately sold for 1,600,000 Mixed Element Units.
Everyone couldn't help but murmur in astonishment.
Only now did they realize just how expensive a live Starry Behemoth could be.
At this moment, their gazes toward Luo Feng grew even more peculiar.
Luo Feng looked at Luo Fan with a complex expression.
They all knew that just the Cangyan Behemoth alone was worth over 1.6 million Mixed Element Units.
A Starry Behemoth that could reach Domain Lord level as an adult would naturally cost even more.
Moreover, among the twelve peak bloodlines of Starry Behemoths, the Golden Horn Behemoth with an avatar talent was one of the most valuable.
"Big brotherā¦ thank you," Luo Feng said, now fully understanding just how precious Luo Fan's gift really was.
Babata didn't say anything either.
He had already realized that even if all of Hu Yan Bo's wealth were spent, it still wouldn't buy a single eggshell of the Golden Horn Behemoth.
"We're family, so don't worry about it. Besides, I don't really need it myself," Luo Fan said gently to Luo Feng.
Hearing this, Luo Feng remained silent, simply storing the moment in his heart.
Sensing the awkwardness in the atmosphere, Thor spoke up abruptly:
"Luo Fan, how about I call you my big brother too?"
"Andā¦ could you give me a Starry Behemoth egg?"
"Even a regular Starry Behemoth is fine!"
Seeing Thor's mischievous expression, everyone couldn't help but stifle a laugh.
"Get lost!"
Luo Fan rolled his eyes at him and said in mild annoyance.
After Thor's antics, the group quickly forgot about the Golden Horn Behemoth.
Soon, one auction item after another appeared.
Among them, a few biological materials even made Luo Fan feel tempted.
For example, there was a life ancient tree capable of creating creatures similar to the Elf race.
Luo Fan thought it might be somewhat like the Blood Sea, though the number of species it could create was more limited.
Even a single branch sold for over 2 million Mixed Element Units, an astronomical price.
After all, the branches of a life ancient tree aid in comprehending the Origin Law of Wood.
And this item could be passed down, essentially becoming a heirloom for a powerful family.
There was also the Giant Spirit Sea, a life-form sea water that could restore divine power, though it lost about 30% of the energy in the process.
This item went for tens of millions of Mixed Element Units.
It was said that an Immortal-level Giant Spirit Sea could span over 100 million kilometers, extremely rare, with only a few existing in the entire universe.
Luo Fan couldn't help but feel a bit envious as he watched.
Luo Fan knew there was an even higher-tier Blood Sea, otherwise he would have gone all out to earn enough to buy some Giant Spirit Sea to cultivate an avatar.
Right now, Luo Feng beside him was watching with eyes burning with desire.
There were just too many biological materials at this auction.
After browsing, Luo Feng had a long list of creatures he wanted to cultivate.
Among them was even a one-kilometer-diameter Immortal-level Space Worm skin fragment.
During the auction, everyone's gaze naturally shifted to Luo Fan.
Luo Fan could fully understand what Luo Feng had felt earlier.
A single kilometer-wide Immortal-level Space Worm skin fragment was priced at over 3 million Mixed Element Units.
This was because the skin contained secret patterns of the Spatial Origin Law.
Especially at the Immortal level, the patterns became even more intricate and refined.
Those buying Space Worm skin fragments were primarily interested in studying the laws, since Immortal-level skin fragments couldn't be used to cultivate avatars.
Moreover, there weren't many creatures in the universe capable of producing avatars.
"Big brother, this Space Worm skin fragment is so expensive. Why don't you cut a piece to sell?
Or make a few avatars and put them up for auction?"
Luo Feng said cautiously.
He truly thought this was a very good idea.
After all, in reality, the energy used to create an avatar could be replenished by Luo Fan simply devouring some spatial fragments.
This meant that the cost of a Stellar-level avatar was only a few hundred million Universal Coins.
Moreover, a single avatar of his could reach ten kilometers in length.
Even if Stellar-level avatars sold for a bit less, he could still earn several Mixed Element Units per one.
This was pure profit.
The others also realized that this was a pretty good way to make money.
At that moment, Luo Fan spoke softly:
"You need to understand, Space Worms are born as Domain Lord-level life forms."
"If others know that my Space Worm is Stellar-level, I'd be captured and dissected in an instant."
Upon hearing this, everyone finally understood.
Before anyone could ask further, Luo Fan continued:
"My Space Worm avatars are somewhat special, you could say it's a unique opportunity I had."
Hearing this, no one asked further. After all, Luo Fan had already set the boundary, and none of them were the type to pry into someone else's secrets.
Soon, the next auction item appeared:
"Ladies and gentlemen, here is the remains of a Domain Lord-level Mechanical Race genius!"
"Its entire body is made mostly of F-grade metal, with even some portions containing G-grade metal!"
"In addition, it carries a lot of Mechanical Race technology."
"It's excellent research material. Starting bid: 100,000 Mixed Element Units!"
Luo Fan looked at the platform, where a body over 100 meters tall stood, and his face showed a flicker of curiosity.
This machine-like body was the remains of a Mechanical Race member.
The entire corpse was somewhat rectangular in shape.
Mechanical Race bodies came in countless forms and structures.
After all, their core was the Heart of Evolution.
Mechanical Race beings were formed when intelligent life like Babata merged into a metal body to become a living entity.
However, ordinary Mechanical Race members found it extremely difficult to comprehend the laws.
Even after millions of years of cultivation, it was difficult for them to achieve Immortal status.
This was because intelligent life couldn't fully integrate with the metal body.
Of course, this also allowed them to freely transfer their core consciousness.
For example, Babata once had a body of his own.
Unfortunately, that body was destroyed in battle.
Even so, Babata remained alive.
If Babata had been fully fused with that body, he would have died when the body was destroyed.
