Mo Wuji's heart sank. Sometimes, hidden spiritual roots could never be revealed. The moment it was revealed, it would definitely be treated as a commodity in the cultivation world.
Hidden spiritual roots were the best targets for possession, and also the best cauldron. As for hidden water-type spiritual roots, it could suppress most cultivators from going berserk.
Going berserk during cultivation was a normal phenomenon, especially when cultivating sacred arts. It was easy to tear one's meridians and rupture one's spirit channels. Hidden water-type spiritual roots could completely solve this problem.
However, the moment someone with hidden water-type spiritual roots started cultivating water-type techniques, their hidden spiritual roots would completely disappear. Moreover, no matter what kind of spiritual roots they had in the past, as long as they started cultivating after their hidden spiritual roots appeared, their previous spiritual roots would be corroded. At the same time, their aptitude would advance to pure spiritual roots.
Thus, after knowing that they had hidden spiritual roots, almost everyone would choose to cultivate a hidden elemental technique. This was to speed up their advancement, and also to protect themselves. If one cultivated with hidden spiritual roots, they would no longer have hidden spiritual roots.
Yi Luo 'Er smiled and said, "I believe everyone knows the value of hidden spiritual roots, especially hidden water-type spiritual roots. This immortal slave's hidden spiritual roots were discovered the moment it appeared. Until now, she has yet to cultivate it. "
As she spoke, the platform in front of Yi Luo 'Er flashed with white light. A woman in a light blue immortal dress was transferred over. Everyone's eyes landed on this woman. Everyone knew that this was the immortal slave that Yi Luo 'Er was talking about.
"This immortal slave's starting bid is 100,000 green crystals. Each increment must be no less than 10,000. The bidding begins now." Yi Luo 'Er's voice sounded.
The moment he saw this female slave, Mo Wuji knew that she wasn't Cen Shuyin. Mo Wuji sighed. Even though she wasn't Cen Shuyin, he recognised this female slave.
Mo Wuji still remembered that this female slave was called Yan Yuerong. Back then, she was still a pure and cute girl. She had a very kind heart. The girl that always followed her was called Xiao Xiaoyu. She was also a very kind girl. Back then, when he appeared as Da Huang, a pure mortal, Xiao Xiaoyu didn't forcefully snatch the Draining Immortal King Pill that he was about to give away.
This Yan Yuerong even took the initiative to save a few mortals.
There was no need to talk about how Mo Wuji had a good impression of Yan Yuerong and Xiao Xiaoyu. Even if it was because of this girl's kind heart in the past, he wouldn't stand by and watch. If he lost the green crystals, he could think of another way. But if he was gone, he would never be able to find him again.
Yan Yuerong's face was pale and numb, as though her soul had disappeared. Mo Wuji knew that even if he saved Yan Yuerong, that adorable young girl would never return.
He was reminded of Meditation Nunnery's Su Xi. He had personally witnessed Su Xi's transformation and that adorable little immortal nun would only exist in his memories forever … It could be seen that in the world of cultivation where the strong preyed on the weak, many things were slowly disappearing.
In a short period of time, Yan Yuerong's price rose to 300,000 green crystals. The value of a Hidden Water Spiritual Root was hard to estimate, let alone Yan Yuerong who looked so pure and beautiful. Even if it was used as a cauldron, it would be of the highest quality.
"This Emperor bids 400,000 green crystals!" A cold voice came from the private room. Although it was just a voice, the cold aura seemed to lower the temperature of the entire auction hall.
The price of the auction stabilized, and no one else raised the price. Mo Wuji was very clear that firstly, 400,000 green crystals was indeed a ridiculous price. Secondly, many people were fearful of this arrogant fella.
In an auction like this, one only needed to write their bid on the bidding board in front of them and the price would automatically be displayed on the huge display screen on the stage.
This fella directly stated his bid, which was equivalent to telling others that they were not allowed to compete with him.
Besides Mo Wuji, most people in the auction hall knew who this cold voice belonged to. West River Religious Order's Vice Union Head, Leng Ren.
This person killed like flies; he didn't even place the lives of others in his eyes. Moreover, he was from a notorious place like West River Religious Order, so his hands were stained with blood.
Everyone knew why Leng Ren wanted to buy this immortal slave at such a high price. It was because Leng Ren was heavily injured in the Shattered Ruins, and his spirit channels were unable to recover. He only had one motive for buying this immortal slave, which was to possess it.
Facing such a ruthless person, even if others wanted this immortal slave, they wouldn't dare to bid. This was clearly offending an expert who had no qualms about anything. Even the Heavenly Eon Auction House wouldn't dare to offend West River Religious Order's Leng Ren.
Mo Wuji did not hesitate to write a bid of 450,000 green crystals on the bidding board in front of him. He didn't know who Leng Ren was. Even if he knew, he still wanted to bid.
Yi Luo 'Er's voice was crisp and moving, "Box 29 bids 400,000 green crystals. 400,000 going once …"
Mo Wuji jolted; something wasn't right. He had just bid 450,000 green crystals. What was going on? Why wasn't it displayed on the display screen? Could this bidding screen be broken?
However, Mo Wuji immediately eliminated this possibility. This thing wasn't some electronic product; it definitely wouldn't be broken midway.
"400,000 green crystals going twice!"
Just as Mo Wuji was about to shout out his bid, the price on the bidding screen suddenly changed; it went from 400,000 to 420,000.
Mo Wuji furrowed his brows; he knew that he wasn't the one who made this bid.
Indeed, the moment the bid of 420,000 green crystals appeared, Yi Luo 'Er immediately said, "Someone has raised the bid to 420,000 green crystals. If there's no higher bid, then …"
"Wait, who wants to snatch the vitality of I, Leng Ren?" Box 29's cold voice resounded once more.
A lazy voice resounded, "This Reverend is Wu Li. You can fight your way to me."
What shocked Mo Wuji was that the originally aggressive Leng Ren actually went silent after hearing this voice. Mo Wuji was filled with disdain; so it was just a pretentious criminal.
"Four hundred and twenty thousand green crystals going once …"
Mo Wuji didn't wait for Yi Luo 'Er to call out a second time. He wrote 450,000 green crystals on the bidding board in front of him and pressed the bid button.
What infuriated him was that the bid still didn't go up. Mo Wuji had experienced too many things. At this point, if he didn't know that this was the work of the auction house, he would really be an idiot. Clearly, the auction house was very fearful of Leng Ren and Wu Li. The moment these two started bidding, it would restrict the bids of others.
Mo Wuji was filled with disdain. How could they hold an auction with such little capability?
"Four hundred and twenty thousand green crystals going twice."
"450,000 green crystals!" Mo Wuji did not hesitate to interrupt Yi Luo 'Er's words. At the same time, he called out loudly. Even though his voice wasn't as cold as Leng Ren's, it still reverberated throughout the entire auction house.
The entire auction house went silent. Who didn't know what kind of person Wu Li was? There was no need to talk about how Wu Li was a genius of the Gods Race. Even in the entire Cosmos Edge, Wu Li was an existence that no one dared to offend.
Even the infamous West River Religious Order's Vice Union Head Leng Ren didn't dare to do anything to Wu Li. In fact, he didn't even dare to bid against Wu Li. But now, a fella that didn't even have a box actually dared to bid. Was he courting death or was he courting death?
Wu Li snorted coldly. Before he could say anything, Mo Wuji said in a clear voice, "May I ask the auction house, why can't my bidding board make a bid? Why do I have to call out my bid?"
Yi Luo 'Er was shocked by Mo Wuji. Where did this ignorant fella come from? He actually dared to bid against the Gods Race's Wu Li?
"What's going on? Could it be that my green crystals are fake? There isn't even a single person answering me. I've already called out my bid. Why can't it be displayed? "Mo Wuji's tone turned stern. He didn't care about Wu Li's cold snort.
He had already offended Mifei Trade Union. At the very most, he would offend another power.
"Ah …" Yi Luo 'Er finally reacted. She hurriedly said, "There should be a problem with the bidding board. You can call out your bid again."
In reality, before Mo Wuji could call out his bid, Mo Wuji's bid had already appeared on the screen: 450,000 green crystals.
Mo Wuji was very clear that he was the one who stood out. Therefore, the Heavenly Eon Auction didn't want to interfere in this matter anymore.
"460,000 green crystals." The moment the bid appeared, Wu Li's voice could be heard. "That fella who called out his bid, your guts are really fat."
Why would Mo Wuji care about Wu Li? He directly called out his bid of 500,000 green crystals. At the same time, he was speechless towards this Heavenly Eon Auction. For this auction to end up like this, it was truly pitiful. If not for the good items in this auction, Mo Wuji guessed that there wouldn't be so many people here.
"Good. You have guts. You're also rich." Wu Li's voice was as cold as Leng Ren's. He didn't continue to call out his bid.
Even though he was a genius of the Gods Race and a famous person in Cosmos Edge, Wu Li's bid of hundreds of thousands of green crystals was a serious matter.
There was only one reason why he wanted Yan Yuerong. Yan Yuerong had hidden spiritual roots. If he devoured such spiritual roots, the effects wouldn't be any weaker than those Xiantian God Spiritual Roots. If not for the rules of the various auctions, no matter how strong one's background was, one couldn't use one's status to suppress others from bidding. Otherwise, he would have used Wu Li's name to stop others from bidding.
"500,000 green crystals going once, 500,000 green crystals going twice …"
Yi Luo 'Er's voice was trembling. She was worried that Wu Li would start a fight in the auction. If that happened, her hosting of this auction would be completely screwed.
Fortunately, the thing that she was worried about didn't happen. She worriedly said her last few words, "500,000 green crystals going thrice. Congratulations to the friend in Row 28, Number 136, for obtaining this immortal slave …"
The expressionless Yan Yuerong was soon brought to Mo Wuji's side. Mo Wuji used his storage bag to pay 500,000 green crystals.
Even though there were no sounds of discussion in the auction, Mo Wuji could feel many spiritual wills sweeping over. Not only that, many gazes landed on Mo Wuji. Everyone wanted to know where this rash fellow came from.
