431 A Mysterious Egg

For the rest of that auction, there were plenty of treasures that piqued my interest. From cute souvenirs to bring back for the girls to random pieces of artwork, I bought them all. Most of the weapons here were quite weak though, according to Ling Xin, so I didn't bother buying any of that. Apparently, it was because the people here rarely used weapons anyway — most wielded ones forged with their own True Essence.

Since True Essence could be molded into any form and shape their wielder wished, this was the go-to option for most people. However, because of this, the weapons also crumbled to dust when their owners died, so the only actual 'weapons' that existed here and could be used by anyone weren't actually meant for combat at all, but mere decoration.
