The next day, the auction was held as scheduled.
Lin Xiu and the group arrived at the auction venue early in the morning. Old Toby was the same as yesterday, he greeted everyone first, then smiled and clapped his hands, gesturing for the beautiful maidservant to bring the items that were going to be auctioned today.
"Everyone has done well today. I've realized that everyone should know that the items we auction are getting more precious as we get closer to the end. Today's first auction item is already as such. This old man will no longer act as an official." Old Toby swept his gaze across the auction ground before speaking with a smile.
"Old man, hurry up and display the items that are to be auctioned today. Everyone has been waiting impatiently for a long time." An expert below shouted at the top of his lungs.
"Haste makes waste. Brother, sit down for the time being and allow me to introduce the items to everyone. As everyone knows, there are many hidden dragons and crouching tigers on this continent. There are many experts, and there are even three great beings who have reached the enlightenment realm in history. They used their entire lives to obtain the Five Heavens' Holy Artifact. Now that such a long time has passed, the continent's injuries should have already healed. So where is the so-called Heaven Mending Artifact? "Old Tobi looked around, then purposely raised his voice, making the experts below itch unbearably.
The news regarding the Heaven Mending Sacred Object was simply too shocking. Even if these experts were extremely wealthy and had extremely powerful strength, they still could not help but gasp heavily when they heard about the Heaven Mending Sacred Object. Their eyes revealed a burning desire.
"Lin Xiu, if you really have news about the Heaven Mending Sacred Object, you must obtain it no matter what. Only then, with the items left behind by the three great emperors, you will definitely be able to make an earth-shattering change in your strength in a short period of time." Wu Kejun had a solemn expression and said to Lin Xiu in a deep voice.
The experts below could not sit still any longer. The news was simply too shocking. If anyone could successfully obtain it, it would definitely allow them to take another step forward on the path of cultivation.
Old Toby was obviously very satisfied with the shock that the news brought to everyone. Seeing that everyone's attention was focused on him, he cleared his throat again and clapped his hands to open the tray in the servant girl's hands, revealing a palm-sized map.
"According to the expert who consigned this item, he obtained this map by chance. Although it is not complete, based on the contents recorded on it, we can still deduce clues regarding the Heaven Mending Sacred Object." Old Toby held the yellowed map in his hand and waved it in front of everyone before placing it back on the tray.
"If you don't display it properly in front of us, how will we be able to verify the authenticity of the map? If this is fake, then what should we do if we pay a huge price and still can't find the Heaven Mending Artifact? "Some of the experts below raised their doubts.
Unexpectedly, Old Toby merely shook his head and made a solemn vow to everyone.
"After a round of appraisal by the auction committee, this map is indeed authentic. However, if I bring it to you and let you examine it carefully, wouldn't the contents on it be exposed? I don't think anyone would want to do that. "
"Alright, I won't waste any more words. According to that expert's request, this map doesn't accept spirit stones. It can only be exchanged with other heavenly treasures." The old man's following words instantly caused the atmosphere in the auction house to explode. No one knew what exactly that expert needed. It was likely that many people would have to bleed a lot if they wanted to continue the auction.
"Old Toby, tell us the truth. What does that expert want? Otherwise, everyone will be like headless flies. I believe that we'll only be wasting that expert's time. "An expert shouted at the old man. Many people agreed with him.
"That expert is a fire-attributed martial artist. Naturally, he would need something related to that. The higher the price, the higher the chance of obtaining the final map." Old Toby divulged another piece of information, causing the eyebrows of the crowd below to tightly knit together. After all, before coming here, no one knew that there would be an auction like bartering.
But when he heard this news, Lin Xiu's expression changed. If he remembered correctly, when Huo Ling 'er left Huai Ning City, she left him a phoenix feather. He wondered if he could use it to obtain this map?
Following that, those experts also started to bid as much as they could.
"Phoenix Parasol Tree!"
"Essence of Earth Fire!"
"Raw Flame Stone!"
Wu Kejun and Zhao Wuji couldn't help but click their tongues when they heard the bids. These heavenly treasures were all extremely precious and were rarely seen. However, for the sake of obtaining this map, many people had already started to bid regardless of the price.
He pondered for a moment. He didn't know if he could obtain this map with just a fiery red feather. He wasn't very confident.
"Universe realm, Fire Phoenix Race, royal Ling Feather!"
Lin Xiu finally said his price and everyone was a little surprised. After all, the demon race and humans had always minded their own business.
Usually, no one could enter the demon race's territory, let alone interact with the royal family. Who would have thought that these two young men, who were unknown in the mainland recently, actually had a relationship with the royal family?
Many fire lineage cultivators' breathing became more rapid. The Fire Phoenix Race was the darling of heaven and earth and was born with the ability to control the power of fire. Their feather was related to fire and if they could obtain it, it would be greatly beneficial to their cultivation.
Many people even made up their minds to wait until the auction was over and have a good talk with Lin Xiu. If he still had more feather, they would exchange for it at all costs.
Old Toby's eyes lit up when he heard this. At this moment, the fire-attributed heavenly treasures were more or less reported.
"Everyone, please wait for a moment. I will send someone to contact that expert now and see whose heavenly treasure can satisfy that expert." Old Toby said calmly to everyone, then whispered a few words into the ear of a servant girl. The latter left in a hurry, obviously to contact that expert.
After a brief moment, the maid finally returned and gestured to the old man. When the latter heard those words, his brows loosened up and he looked at the experts here with a smile on his face.
