“100 pieces of Stabilizing Pills with markings and pill fragrance are collectively of an estimated price exceeding 2000 purple gold. Are there any bid raises?” Qi Ying’s captivating voice brought the apparently shocked audience back to the auction venue.
“2100 purple gold.” Man Tai said while clenching his teeth.
“100 pieces of Stabilizing Pills with markings and pill fragrance are of an estimated price also exceeding 2100 purple gold. Please continue raising your bid.” Qi Ying said faintly.
“Fuck, what does that girl mean by that? She is opposing me undeniably.” Man Tai said angrily.
“Man Tai brother, we should not bid any further now. With that old man’s alchemy techniques, there must be a large force supporting him from behind. We don’t have to be against him for now; until I uncover that old man’s identity, we will not be late by then.” Mo Feng said, as no one would like to offend a high-ranked alchemist.
“Then I will not allow him to leave Limestone City.” Man Tai said aggressively.
What Qi Ying said was obvious with the meaning of pleasing that inscrutable alchemist. An alchemist who is able to synthesize Stabilizing Pills with markings and pill fragrance, worths being invited by every family to their sides. A powerful alchemist can foster countless powerful martial artists.
Behind every powerful force, there must be an influential alchemist.
“Haha, the Azure Light Sword is ours then.” Leng Leng smirked, and looked at Ye Mo with eyes full of admire.
Xiao Yue also was in a face full of smiles. It could not be believed that a high-grade magic weapon could be obtained with such ease, and Ye Mo could easily reform that many Stabilizing Pills with markings and pill fragrance.
“Since there are no more bids from anyone, this high-grade Azure Light Sword will belong to the old gentleman. As soon as the auction ends, the old gentleman can come to our backstage to complete his transaction with us.”
The Ye and Qin families did not know that, in all of a sudden, someone would come in at the middle of the auction. Nonetheless, they understood in their hearts that they could not afford to offend such a person with an unknown background.
After Qi Ying finished speaking, the muscular staff came to the floor again, returned the Azure Light Sword to the wooden box, and carried it away. A maid then took out a seal from the backstage, where on the seal, emanated glooms of blackness.
“The second auction item is a rank one magic seal, which can seal Spirit Cultivating Realm martial artists’ energy center. Once one’s energy center is sealed, other than assisted by a high rank seal maker, it will be inevitable that the person will self-explode as soon as the energy center runs again.” Qi Ying began introducing the effect of the seal on the scene to everyone.
Seal masters were relatively unfamiliar to the people present at the auction. They only know that seal masters are divided into auxiliary seal masters and combat seal masters, whereas auxiliary seal masters fabricate seals of different effects, being mysterious to all.
Sealing is the most extraordinary of all, using Yuanli to draw runes on seal papers and stick them to martial artists’ energy center. The rune automatically breaks into the energy center, forming a Yuanli seed. Once the energy center runs again, the Yuanli seed will spontaneously become a Yuanli monster, filling the energy center to the point of bursting and blasting open the energy center.
When Ye Mo heard of this seal, he became a little emotional. He committed for five years for his father, but was defeated on this kind of seal. If it were not for such a seal, his father would have recovered, maybe reuniting their family of three.
“Yue Yue, are you able to make this kind of seal?” asked Leng Leng curiously.
“I am a combat seal master, so I can only make seals that control beasts, but not other types of seals. As for this seal, it can be said that it is the most difficult and unusual of all. An average seal master can’t even understand its intricacies.” Xiao Yue said faintly.
In the end, this seal was bought by Ye Kuang at the price of 10 purple gold.
“The next one is the last auction item for today.” Qi Ying said. The old man of half-step to True Energy Realm presented a wooden box of one feet long. Qi Ying opened the wooden box, displaying a one-feet tip of a spear. The spearhead is very sharp, radiating a blood-red ray as if dipped on the blood of countless people. This spearhead is full of scariness.
“This spear was obtained by a member of my family in the Spirit Valley. Its handle was already broken, so we took the spear head off. According to my speculations, this spearhead is also of a magic weapon grade. I had asked weapon forgers to combine magic weapon graded sticks with the spear head to form its handle, but had continuously failed. The spearhead is filled with too much evil aura, and is intriguing to people’s minds, so I could only take it out for auction. If any powerful martial artists are interested, please feel free to come and give it a try. We will then continue the auction.”
“Even magic weapon graded spear handles cannot combine with this spearhead, what use does even one have with it?” one of the audience said.
“This spearhead must be a fierce object. It is said that in the ancient times, some strong martial artists committed too much murder, causing murderous auras to enter their weapons. The owner of this weapon however was not known of, even the spear handle was broken.”
“Let me try, I want to see how powerful this spear head is.”
A middle-aged man of the Spirit Cultivating Ninth Realm shouted out and walked to the auction floor. As he approached the auction floor and looked at the one-foot blood red spearhead, his face dignified. Standing from a distance, he could already perceive the murderous aura emitted from the spearhead, suffocating him.
This murderous aura seemed to have effect on people’s minds, provoking his blood to boil.
The middle-aged man’s palm slowly went nearer to the spearhead, but as soon as he contacted the spearhead, the blood-red ray seemed to be awaken, rushing into the middle-aged man’s body. The man’s Yuanli in his energy center was quickly eroded by the murderous aura. His face changed dramatically, immediately retracted his palm, sat down on the floor and began running his energy center to expel the murderous aura from his body.
The people present at the scene couldn’t help but heave a sigh of horror. Even martial artists of the Spirit Cultivating Ninth Realm were not able to hold the spearhead. The murderous aura of the spearhead is exceptionally unusual without any doubt.
“Let me give it a try!” A loud and clear voice sounded, as Ye Kuang jumped directly out of the VIP room, with his feet not stepping on anything and producing a pair of wings in flames from his behind, striking the auction floor.
“This is a means of the Energy Shaping Realm martial artists, being able to form wings with Yuanli and fly in the air.”
Only in an instant, Ye Kuang arrived at the auction floor and retracted his wings of flames. Qi Ying was smiling all the time when she saw Ye Kuang going to give the spearhead a try, and the old man standing behind Qi Ying remained expressionless, as if he already knew the result for what was going to happen.
“Master Ye Kuang, please.” Qi Ying said faintly.
Ye Kuang stared at the blood red spearhead in front of him, and frowned. Similarly, he could also feel the murderous aura from the surface of the spear head, but he is a strong Energy Shaping Ninth Realm martial artist, having the ability to produce a Yuanli shield to protect him from the aura.
“This spearhead is full of murderous aura, I admit it’s a bit strange. I decide not to give any attempts!” Ye Kuang said as he flew back to his VIP room.
“Senior Ying, this spearhead cannot be dealt with even by you, this Ye Kuang does know where his limits are.” Qi Ying grinned and said when looking at Ye Kuang who was returning to his room.
“Even Ye Kuang does not dare to try. Looks like the spearhead is indeed full of murderous aura. Who would dare using the spearhead before reaching the True Energy Realm?”
“The spearhead is very powerful, but no one dares to use it.” Leng Leng said.
Ye Mo looked at the spearhead with a trace of fiery heat in his eyes. The four dragon powers began circulating in his energy center. My dragon powers are of the powers of the glorious ancient beast and are the Lord of all beasts. How would I be afraid of this little murderous aura?
“The old man wants to try!” Ye Mo’s dry and old voice suddenly resonated.
