“Sir, are you going to auction off this treasure?” The maid in charge of serving Lin Mo asked.
“Oh, is there anything to pay attention to?”
Lin Mo asked. He definitely wanted such a large piece of Heavenly Fire Jade Marrow.
“If sir wants the Heavenly Fire Jade Marrow, our medicine house has another piece. It’s the size of a fist, grade 1 spirit-grade.”
The maid told Lin Mo that the owner of the heavenly fire chalcedony on the stage had a strange personality. He did not want spirit stones, but wanted to exchange them for a cultivation technique.
Cultivation techniques were extremely precious. This old man even wanted to exchange for a special thunder attribute cultivation technique.
This heavenly fire chalcedony had already been auctioned off three times in the medicine shop, but the seller was very stubborn, unwilling to lower his requirements…
“I see. Let’s see how things go first.” Lin Mo expressed his gratitude.
At the same time, he also asked the medicine house to bring him the Skyfire Chalcedony. This item contained the fire Dao laws and was very helpful for cultivation.
After the maid left, Master Song on the stage opened his mouth and told everyone that the seller did not want spirit stones and wanted to barter.
“May I know what treasure this seller wants?” Someone asked. He had just arrived at cloud pattern city and did not know.
Hearing this, song Shi said with a helpless look on his face, “The seller wants a third-grade spirit-grade thunder attribute cultivation technique book…”
“Hua!”
The whole place was in an uproar. This was simply asking for too much.
Even if the quality of the Heavenly Fire Chalcedony was high, and it was such a big piece, it was still a bit ridiculous to want to exchange it for a thunder attribute cultivation technique…
“It’s too expensive…”
“You guys just arrived and don’t know about it. This heavenly fire chalcedony has already been auctioned off three times. The seller isn’t willing to lower the conditions…”
“Looks like the auction is still going to fail this time…”
“Song Shi, can you please tell the seller that I’m willing to exhange a level 2 spirit rank lightning attribute cultivation technique?”
A hoarse voice came from the private room, willing to exchange it for a level 2 spirit rank cultivation technique.
“I’m very sorry, I’ve already said it before, the seller isn’t willing to lower it…” Song Shi said with an apologetic expression.
Hearing this, the private room fell silent. Clearly, he did not want to be a sucker.
The entire place was silent, with no one speaking. The atmosphere was a little cold…
Seeing this, Song Shi shook his head helplessly. Just as he was about to announce that this auction item would not be auctioned off.
Suddenly, Lin Mo’s voice rang out, “Song Shi, I have a lightning attribute spirit rank 2 cultivation technique here.”
Someone looked at Lin Mo’s private room doubtfully. Someone had just offered the same price, why was this person still offering such a price?
Song Shi shook his head and said, “Young Master Lin, the seller insists on a spirit rank 3 cultivation technique. I’m very sorry.”
Just as he was about to announce that the auction had failed, Lin Mo hurriedly said, “I still have a piece of Holy Thunder Chalcedony, tier 1 spirit-grade. How about adding it?”
A rank 2 spirit-grade cultivation technique, along with a tier 1 Holy Thunder Chalcedony, should be enough for the price.
If the seller was still unwilling to give in, then he would not accept it. He would not be at a disadvantage…
Most of the resources on him, including the inheritance runes, were in Yan Rong’s hands. He had almost given them to Jiang Xiyue.
As for the cultivation techniques that Yan Rong had written, he had most of them with him. Lin Mo did not have the time to check them.
Therefore, he did not have many resources on him. It was obviously impossible for him to give away higher-level cultivation techniques…
“Holy Thunder Jade Marrow?”
Master Song’s eyes lit up. This was a treasure of thunder attribute cultivators.
Moreover, with this jade marrow, the seller would surely agree…
“Young Master Lin, Please Wait a moment. We’ll go ask around.”
Song Shi summoned a maid and gave her orders. After waiting for about three minutes, the maid walked over. Under Song Shi’s nod, the maid bowed respectfully, she said, “Young Master Lin, the seller said that if you add another 50,000 middle-grade spirit stones, he will agree.”
The crowd booed. This seller’s heart was truly black. A spirit level 2 cultivation technique and a piece of Holy Thunder Jade Marrow.
This price was already very reasonable, yet this fellow still wanted 50,000 middle grade spirit stones.
“10,000 middle grade spirit stones, that’s the price…”
Lin Mo frowned. Why was this seller even worse than him? It seemed like he had met his match…
“Hehe, since young master Lin is so forthright, this old man will naturally agree to it.”
On the other side, the window of the private room was opened, and a sound of aged laughter sounded out, agreeing to the transaction.
Everyone turned their gazes over, curious to see what the seller looked like.
However, the old man was wearing a bamboo hat, so they couldn’t tell what he looked like. Disappointment was written all over his face.
Lin Mo secretly gritted his teeth. He had been scammed. The old man was clearly tempted. He had started off with 50,000 middle-tier spirit stones just to earn a little more…
“Sigh, the older the ginger, the spicier it is…”
Sighing, two maids knocked on the door and walked in.
Two pieces of Heavenly Fire Chalcedony were sent over. After inspecting it, Lin Mo nodded his head in satisfaction.
“As for the spirit stones, they will be deducted from the spirit pills I auctioned off.”
After handing the cultivation technique and the Holy Thunder Chalcedony to the maids, Lin Mo accepted the Heavenly Fire Chalcedony.
At this moment, the fourth item auctioned off on the stage was also Lin Mo’s Spirit Pill, a tier 9 mid-grade spirit restoration pill that could restore spiritual energy.
It also caused a huge commotion, and spirit pills were extremely popular everywhere.
In the end, this spirit recovering pill was auctioned off for a price of 9,000 mid-grade spirit stones.
[ Congratulations host for successfully auctioning off a 9th rank mid-grade spirit recovering pill ]
[ Successfully triggered 70 times the auction return ]
[ Congratulations host for obtaining a tier 9 mid-grade spirit recovering pill ]
The spirit recovering pill was returned, but its quality was already infinitely close to that of a toer 9 high-grade spirit recovering pill, causing Lin Mo to feel helpless. As expected, the auction was not good enough.
The fifth item was a tier 1 spirit-grade martial art, causing everyone to clamor for it.
The ban had been lifted for half a year, martial arts and cultivation techniques were the most popular. As long as they appeared, it would cause everyone to fight over them.
The starting price was also as high as 20,000 mid-grade spirit stones, and the highest bidder would obtain it.
However, Lin Mo was not interested in this.
Just the Qilin steps, Kun Peng Wings, True Phoenix Nirvana technique, and Cloud Piercing Four Spirits were enough for him on his plate.
Moreover, he had the soul-devouring art that he created himself.
Thus, he would not participate in the auction for martial arts at all.
“25,000 mid-grade spirit stones.”
“26,000…”
Looking at the fiery auction, Lin Mo’s interest was piqued because the remaining items seemed to be spirit-grade treasures…
Lin Mo suddenly thought of a problem. It seemed like all the tier 9 treasures in this auction came from his own hands…
After an intense competition, this martial arts manual was finally bought by a middle-aged woman in the private room for 35,000 middle-grade spirit stones.
The transaction was done on the spot, and she immediately left the venue, causing countless people to discuss it.
As for the remaining auction items, they were all martial arts. Lin Mo did not participate in the entire process and just watched quietly.
Then, the final items came. These were two tier 1 spirit rank defensive talismans, able to withstand a full-strength attack from a first sky Nirvana Realm expert.
As soon as it appeared, it caused everyone to clamor for it, and in the end, it was bought by Lin Mo with a grade 4 spirit rank cultivation technique book.
Such a huge expenditure truly shocked everyone. Some of them looked at Lin Mo with envy.
“Alright, next is the final item for auction…”
