Chapter 310: The Last Item in the Auction
Translator: Noodletown Translations Editor: Noodletown Translations
When the price increased to 8,000, the bidding slowed down, and even Xue Shuilong, who had kept bidding for it without hesitation, thought for a while before placing a bid of 8,300.
For others, this was a treasure that they didn’t quite understand the function of. It meant that this price was very close to their limits as well.
The cultivator of the Feng Family increased the bid to 8,500 tentatively.
The price increment for the Limitless Stick was no less than 200 crystals. After placing the bid of 8,700, Xue Shuilong said, “Daoist Brother Feng, if you buy the Limitless Stick, you can’t use it right now. If you still want to bid for it, then I’ll give it up.”
“Since Daoist Brother Xue wants this treasure, I won’t take it from you forcefully,” the cultivator of the Feng Family gave him a fake smile and said. “It’s yours, Daoist Brother Xue!”
Finally, Xue Shuilong bought the Limitless Stick for 8,700 crystals.
“Demon-Trapping Curse. It’s very effective against filthy and evil entities. One can draw a circle around an evil entity, and the latter will be confused by the curse and won’t be able to see the outside world.”
Another small yellow book appeared before the woman. “Although it’s not very useful in battle as a spiritual spell, it can help you a lot when you’re surrounded by evil entities!”
“As with the Magic Shield Spell, this curse has a special cultivation method.”
“The starting price is 1,000 crystals.”
Obviously, many people wanted to bid for the unknown treasures. Compared to these novelties, the other treasures were less attractive.
Many people turned their focus to these weird but powerful novel items!
Fortunately, the cultivators wouldn’t be so crazy as to fight for warriors’ skill books. After bidding against the few warriors in the auction hall, Fang Qi bought the Flame Sword Technique Skill Books for 5,000 crystals.
By now, the people in the auction hall had gotten even more enthusiastic and heated.
“The next item is Ice Roar!”
Since the guests in the auction were mostly wizards and taoists, when the name ‘Ice Roar’ came out, the whole auction hall was filled with excited talks, and all the wizards turned their eager eyes toward the book which contained the ultimate technique for this profession!
“This spiritual spell can swiftly condense snow and create an ice storm to attack enemies. It can condense wind and snow in one area and form a tornado of countless icicles. No one can dodge the bone-chilling ice spikes!” The woman’s voice rose while she explained, “This spiritual spell doesn’t need any chants. No other simple spiritual spells can match this one. Its power is estimated to be no less than that of a middle-sized AoE spiritual spell!”
“The starting price is 8,000, and the smallest price increment is 500!”
“10,000!” Before she finished, Black Demon already yelled.
“12,000!” Xichi yelled immediately.
How come Master began bidding again. Sitting next to her, Mo Xian had a bitter expression on her face.
“It’s a level 35 skill. When can she learn it…” Liu Ningyun was considering if she should stop the Xichi Spiritual Master.
“Dad… Should we…” Before that boy who was about 12 to 13 years old of the Haoran Faction could finish his sentence, the grey-clothed cultivator sitting next to him had stood up. “15,000!”
“16,000!” Tang Yuan of the Yuanheng Pavilion yelled immediately!
Obviously, almost no one had ever seen anyone use this ultimate skill of wizards, which meant that anyone who got this Ice Roar Skill Book would be the No. 1 Wizard!
“20,000!” Xi Chenzhou was unwilling to admit defeat.
“25,000!” The wizard who was wearing a moon-white robe said with a wicked expression. “The throne of the No. 1 Wizard belongs to me, Zhuge Bai!”
“No.1 Wizard?”
“What’s that?!”
All the cultivators looked at each other in bafflement.
At the table of the Feng Family, the gloomy-faced middle-aged cultivator asked, “Do you know what they are talking about?”
The others at the table all shook their heads.
“Strange…” The cultivator of the Feng Family had a doubtful look on his face. “However powerful this spiritual spell is, what does it have to do with being No. 1? I wonder what secrets this city has that I don’t know about.”
The exorbitant price of 25,000 crystals went beyond the price limit of some of the cultivators who didn’t know what was happening. In the end, the Ice Roar Skill Book went to Zhuge Bai.
Then, the image on display turned into a slim and long staff in the shape of a beast bone. “As for the next three items on auction, I believe many of you know their values.”
“Bone Jade Staff! Magic: 2-6; Damage: 6-12. It’s a legendary godly weapon from a fantasy world,” the woman said, “This item was made from a bone of a devil dragon and possesses great spiritual energy. Although it’s my first time auctioning such a treasure, I believe many people here know its value! The starting price is 20,000 with increments of 1,000!”
“30,000!” At the first bid, Black Demon added 10,000!
“35,000!” The cultivator of the Feng Family joined in the bidding again.
“40,000!” These precious items from a ‘fantasy world’ had drawn the Xichi Spiritual Master’s attention. Since she would go and see the fantasy world sooner or later, she figured that she might as well get prepared and buy a few more treasures.
Of course, her disciples were now desperate.
Liu Ningyun thought, No… I can’t stop Master at all…
Mo Xian felt desperate. Anyone, please come and outbid Master…
As if heaven heard her prayer, Tang Yuan of the Yuanheng Pavilion yelled, “45,000!”
“50,000!” Haoran Faction couldn’t remain silent anymore.
“60,000!” Zhuge Bai of the White Dragon Office gritted his teeth and added 10,000!
At the level of 60,000 crystals, many bidders began to hesitate.
After all, it was a virtual item, and its use was indirect since it couldn’t be used in the real world. The virtual items could help them kill other players and obtain treasures in the game with great efficiency, but they couldn’t increase people’s strength as directly and quickly as the skill books did.
At this moment, only the Yuanheng Pavilion increased the price by 1,000 crystals.
The golden-robed cultivator who bought a Magic Shield Spell Skill Book increased the price by another 1,000 crystals.
Finally, the Yuanheng Pavilion increased the price by another 1,000, making the offered price as high as 63,000. Then, no one else placed a higher bid. In the end, the first Bone Jade Staff of the server went to Yuanheng Pavilion!
Then, the second Summon Godly Beast Skill Book was bought by Xue Shuilong of the White Dragon Office for 70,000!
Finally, they came to the last virtual item from the Legend of Mir 2 – Enchanting Light.
“The next item probably is the best one in this auction since I’m also tempted by it,” the woman said with a chuckle.
“Next, we’ll ask Ms. Xi Yue of Coil Dragon Office to assist me with a small experiment.” At her order, some cultivators pushed a huge iron cage into the hall. In the cage was a huge one-meter-long eagle whose plumage emitted a metallic luster!
This huge eagle was untamed, and it looked ferocious even in the cage.
On the other side, Xi Yue walked up, and a big black vulture that was as tall as a meter flew up, rubbing its head against her hair endearingly.
“This huge eagle is an Iron Feather Eagle that our Heaven-Hiding Pavilion transported from the Beast Field for this auction. Its strength is equivalent to that of an early stage True Lake Realm cultivator,” the woman introduced, “However, the vulture beside Ms. Xi Yue only has the strength of a middle stage Spiritual River Realm cultivator.”
With a charming smile, she asked, “Can you guess what will happen if the two demon beasts fight each other?”
“What else can happen? How can a Spiritual River Realm demon beast block the attacks from a True Lake Realm demon beast?”
“Do you have a spiritual spell like the Magic Shield Spell that can help the Spiritual River Realm demon beast block the attack of the True Lake Realm demon beast?!”
With a faint smile, the woman opened the door of the iron cage and removed the restraining spell on it.
At this moment, the vulture flew over and landed before the iron cage.
With a hoarse shriek, the huge Iron Feather Eagle viciously charged toward the Spiritual River Realm black vulture!
However, in the next instant, the black vulture’s aura shot up, and its black feathers almost stood on end. It slammed out its right wing!
Boom!
It slammed down viciously as if a huge prehistoric beast clawed down.
The huge Iron Feather Eagle had no time to dodge, and its whole body seemed to have been crushed by a locomotive! Its iron-like feathers shattered, and blood oozed from its nose and head. Falling to the floor, it twitched a few times and then turned motionless!
“Impossible!”
Seeing this scene, the cultivators all stood up uncontrollably and roared in their heads.
