591 Xia Yu of the Holy Emperor Palace
âLittle friend, why are you in a daze?â
The old lady called out to Lin Mo again, asking him what the scroll on the table was.
âAh?â
Lin Mo, who had been jolted awake, immediately returned to his senses and realized that he was still auctioning his treasuresâ¦
âIâm sorry, senior. I was distracted.â
Lin Mo chuckled in embarrassment. He picked up the scroll on the table and unfurled it for everyone to see.
âThis is a tier 9 earth grade skill, great universe spirit raising art . It has no attribute restrictions, but its mystery lies in the fact that every time the spiritual qi goes one round in the body, it can increase the soul power by one point.â
Lin Moâs introduction caused the entire place to fall into silence.
Many people were dumbfounded as they stared at the scroll that Lin Mo had unfurled.
A cultivation technique that could increase the power of the soul had no attribute restrictions.
This was too perfect. Even if it was placed in some major forces, it was enough to be called a sect guarding treasure.
âLittle friend, is this complete?â The old woman asked again in disbelief.
âSenior, donât worry. Junior can swear that itâs complete.â
Lin Mo explained with a smile. At the same time, he also told her about how he had sold more than one skill.
These people didnât mind. Not many people could afford a treasure of this level.
Furthermore, Lin Mo had also guaranteed that this would be the last auction and that he would not profit from the great universe spirit-raising art in the future.
âYoung friend, whatâs the base price of your cultivation technique?â The old woman asked, still wanting to buy more.
âThe starting price is seven million upper spiritual stones. Each bid must be no less than one hundred thousand upper spiritual stones.â
Lin Mo said as he announced the start of the auction.
âSeven million and five hundred thousand.â
âSeven million six hundred thousand.â
âEight million.â
The sounds of bidding came one after another, and a group of people quickly gathered here because they were bidding very high.
Many people were attracted over. After asking around and finding out about the cultivation technique that Lin Mo was auctioning off, they could not help but be shocked.
Soon after, more people participated in the bidding. Lin Mo even saw a person in the top 100 of The Prodigy Roll.
The man had a refined appearance and held a folding fan in his hand. He walked over with a large group of young people.
âWhat cultivation technique is so valuable? Introduce it to me.â
The newcomer was Xia Yu, tiered fifty-fourth on The Prodigy Roll. He was the saint child of the Saint Emperor Palace and had been taken in as a disciple by the Saint Emperor to be nurtured as the next Saint Emperor. He was extremely talented.
âThe great universe spirit raising art has no attribute restrictions. It can increase the power of the soulâ¦
Lin Mo could not sense any goodwill from the manâs tone, but he was a guest, so he patiently explained the information of the cultivation technique.
âOh, itâs almost as good as the Holy Spirit technique of my Holy Emperor Palace,â
Xia Yu was shocked. He didnât expect this person to be able to take out such a precious treasure.
âThe highest bidder is this friend over here at 11.3 million. If youâre interested, you can also bid.â Lin Mo said.
He could sense a trace of hostility from this person.
However, this was the trading area of the ancient mine, and under normal circumstances, everyone agreed that no disputes were allowed here.
He just didnât know if this person would abide by it.
âOh, youâre the highest bidder?â Xia Yu turned his gaze to a place not far away.
That was an old man. His strength was very strong, at the ninth heavenly layer of the second level of immortal foundation. He was only a step away from the king tier.
However, it was this almighty expert who was so frightened that he took two steps back when he saw Xia Yuâs unfriendly gaze.
âNo, Iâm not buying anymore. Goodbye.â
After saying that, he turned around and left without any hesitation.
Lin Moâs eyes turned cold as he looked at Xia Yu. The latterâs scholarly aura had disappeared and was replaced with a look of ridicule.
âIt seems that no one wants this treasure of yours. In order to prevent it from being unsold, Iâll reluctantly offer you a million upper spiritual stones to sell it to me.â
With that, someone behind Xia Yu sneered. He walked up and threw down an animal skin bag, which contained one million upper spiritual stones.
Xia Yu ignored Lin Mo and reached out to grab the great universe spirit raising art on the table.
However, Lin Moâs speed was much faster than his.
He took the cultivation technique first and secretly exerted his strength at the same time. A sharp wave of sword qi broke through the air.
Xia Yu clearly did not expect Lin Mo to have the guts to make a move. He had thought that Lin Mo was just an itinerant cultivator and could be easily dealt with.
However, he changed his opinion of Lin Mo after seeing the sword qi.
âYouâre looking for death.â
Behind Xia Yu, the man who had just thrown the spiritual stone shouted. Golden light burst out of his palm as he tried to catch the sword Qi.
âPfft!â
In the next moment, a blood light appeared, and no one could block the sword qi.
The manâs palm was cut off in an instant, and blood kept flowing.
âAhâ¦â
He let out a blood-curdling screech and was just about to strike out in anger when he saw Lin Moâs eyes turn icy cold. Lightning and flames danced rhythmically in his palm.
âBang!â
He could not react in time. Lin Moâs speed was too fast, and even Xia Yu could not react in time.
With just one palm, the man was sent flying. He spat out blood and his chest caved in. It was obvious that he was badly injured.
âYou dare?â
Xia Yu was furious. In front of him, he actually injured his subordinates twice, which made him lose face.
He attacked in anger and instantly blew Lin Moâs stall away.
The surrounding people retreated, not daring to get close.
Lin Moâs eyes were cold as he took out the space-severing divine sword. His cultivation level was lower than Xia Yuâs, so he could not hide his strength.
The latter was already at the ninth sky, while he was only at the second sky.
âYouâre so arrogant. This is Cloud Mist Island, not Holy Emperor Palace. Itâs not a place for you to behave atrociously.â
As soon as he finished speaking, Lin Mo immediately took action. He used the world-changing spell proficiently, and the divine flames of the Vermilion Bird burned on his body.
However, in everyoneâs eyes, it was just an ordinary dao fire.
Only Xia Yu, who was truly resisting, knew that this was definitely not dao fire, because it was too terrifying and the temperature was extremely high.
âInteresting. Youâre strong enough to be on The Prodigy roll, but Iâve never seen you before.â Xia Yu was interested.
He had seen the painting of all the people on The Prodigy roll, so he was sure that Lin Mo was not on the roll.
There was only one thing that could prove that he had concealed his true cultivation level.
No matter what, he did not believe that Lin Mo could suppress him in terms of combat strength.
âStop! This is the Gongsun familyâs territory. Even though itâs public, have you all forgotten who the owner of this place is?â
A loud shout was heard, and a group of guards appeared not far away. The person in the lead was someone Lin Mo was familiar with.
He was the guard who wanted to sell Lin Mo the precious ores. However, Lin Mo did not expect him to have such a high status.
âGreetings, Lord Song Shang.â
Some people bowed respectfully. This person had been guarding the Cloud Mist Island for many years. He was in charge of the ancient mine and was a King.
With such strength, no one dared to provoke him.
To everyoneâs surprise, Lord Song Shang usually did not forbid fighting here. As long as it was not too big a deal, he would turn a blind eye.
âWhy was it so abnormal today? The dispute had just started, and he had already brought people to stop it.â
âI heard that thereâs an auction for cultivation techniques that can increase oneâs soul power. Where is it?â Song Shang said bluntly.
Song Shang nodded and said, âI bid 11.5 million. Is there anyone who wants to bid?
