"Alright, 60 million it is then," Linlong nodded.
The price given by the auction house was considered fair, so Linlong naturally wouldn't ask for a higher price. After all, this was considered a mortgage, so it couldn't be compared to a normal auction.
After confirming that the Lava Black Rock had been taken away by the people on his side, the auctioneer continued, "Alright, the guest in No.308 has enough money to bid. I wonder if there's anyone else who would like to bid … Hmm, the previous bid was 45 million."
Seeing that no one made a sound, the auctioneer continued, "45 million going once."
"45 million going twice."
"45 million going thrice."
Until the auctioneer shouted the last sentence, there was still no one bidding. It was obvious that no one wanted to raise the price anymore.
"Alright, the Hundred Refinements Heaven and Earth Brush has been won by the guest in room 308. Those who didn't get it, I hope you won't regret it," the auctioneer said with a smile.
The Hundred Refinements Heaven and Earth Brush was quickly sent to room 308. After receiving the brush from the attendant, Linlong passed it to He Qingxue.
He Qingxue naturally declined, but the powerful Linlong wouldn't give her the chance to decline.
In the end, He Qingxue gratefully accepted the Hundred Refinements Heaven and Earth Brush. Of course, she only accepted it temporarily. One day, when Linlong needed it, she would personally return it to him.
Although that was what he said, how could Linlong, who was Emperor Wu in his previous life, take back something that he had personally given away?
To him, this brush was an investment, an investment that could be exchanged for a powerful Soul Master in the future.
He believed that no one would reject such an investment if they knew that it could be exchanged for such a return.
After the Hundred Refinements Heaven and Earth Brush, the auction continued. The following treasures were naturally of a higher grade, but they were useless to Linlong now, so he wasn't interested in them at all.
This was because he could definitely obtain these items after his strength increased.
After that, Linlong noticed that Rong Ping participated in the bidding for another treasure. It was obvious that he was determined to obtain that treasure. However, this time, Linlong didn't even need to make a move, because Rong Ping couldn't continue following him in the end.
Clearly, the two times he was tricked by Linlong made him lose too much. Thus, he didn't have enough funds to win the bidding for that treasure.
The auction continued from morning to afternoon before coming to an end. In the entire process, there was no break for the guests to rest, because basically everyone there was a martial artist. There simply wouldn't be any physical discomfort from participating in an auction for a long time.
Nearing the end of the auction, another treasure attracted Linlong's interest. It was a Talisman Sealing Tool called Green Wings. It seemed to be a wooden rectangular box, but after pressing a mechanism, a pair of thin wings would appear on the two sides of the rectangular box.
After that, one would discover that the thin wings were densely covered in runes.. Those runes were the runes that the rectangular box. that. were the runes. The runes Linlong ago and there.
After that, the runes., the runes., and a, the rung. and, according to, and Feng. and., and the Tal.
When the Talisman Sealing Tool appeared, it immediately caused an uproar among the crowd. One had to know that such a Talisman Sealing Tool had never appeared before. Normally, if a martial artist did not reach the ninth level Martial Lord realm or above, they simply had no way of flying.
The appearance of Qing Yi immediately changed the situation.
"This is a great invention!"
For a moment, everyone present let out such a sigh.
A hint of surprise flashed across Linlong's face when he saw the Green Wing. He had not expected that the first rune-sealed aircraft of the Chaotic Sky Continent would appear in this auction.
He naturally knew more about such rune-sealed aircraft than anyone else present. He knew that even after many years, such rune-sealed aircraft would not develop much.
In other words, such rune-sealed flying machines were still very rare in the future.
The reason for this was that the process of making such a Runic Array was too complicated and cumbersome. Moreover, only a very powerful Rune Master could make it. There was simply no way to promote it.
In his previous life, Lin Long had heard that the person who created the Rune Seal Flying Device was a very powerful Soul Master. However, even such a Soul Master spent a year to create such a Rune Seal Flying Device.
The rarer something was, the greater its value. This was also the reason why such a Rune Sealing Tool was so expensive. Moreover, it had just appeared, so its price would definitely be ridiculously high.
Needless to say, many rich people had come here today for this Rune Sealing Tool.
At this moment, He Qingxue's eyes were also staring at the Rune Seal Flying Device on the stage below. As a Soul Master, she was naturally curious about how the runes on the Rune Sealing Tool were combined.
"Although this Rune Seal Flying Device looks like it's made of wood, don't worry. It's just a kind of paint. It's actually made from a very hard and tough material, so it won't be easily destroyed." The auctioneer seemed to have noticed the worry in some people's eyes, so he explained.
Such an explanation made many people at the scene let out a light sigh of relief.
"Alright, we will now officially start the auction of this Green Wing. The starting price is one million," the auctioneer said with a loud and clear voice.
One million. Such a high starting price immediately made many people's faces reveal a look of disappointment. It was very obvious that it was impossible for them to get a share of this Rune Sealing Tool.
"One million and five hundred thousand."
"Two million."
"Three million."
"Five million."
…
Following that, the bids were continuous. In a short period of time, it actually soared to twenty million.
"Fifty million!"
Also at that moment, a loud and clear voice rang out. That voice clearly came from the guest in Room 305.
Very clearly, the guest in Room 305 still wanted to use his usual method to kill other people's bids in the cradle.
However, this time, the fifty million could only cause a slight pause in the bidding.
After this pause, the sounds of the auction rose again.
"Fifty-one million."
"Fifty-five million."
"Sixty million."
In a short period of time, the bidding price reached seventy million, and in that period of time, some guests on the third floor also joined in the bidding.
The benefits of the Rune Seal Flying Device were obvious, and it was suitable for all Martial Lords to use. So, it wasn't surprising that so many people were bidding.
"Eighty million!"
At that moment, the guest in Room 305, who had been silent for a long time, called out another price. He directly added over ten million to the previous price, and it was still the method everyone was familiar with.
Hearing such a price, many people sucked in a breath of cold air. At that moment, the great majority of people were reduced to spectators. Only a few people were bidding against each other.
Naturally, there were quite a few people who thought of the guest in Room 308. Before, he would often enter such a bidding war, but this time, he was clearly too silent.
Perhaps he felt it was beneath him to obtain such a Rune Seal Flying Device, or perhaps he was truly out of money.
Seeing such a situation, those people were naturally a bit disappointed. If the guest in Room 308 joined in the bidding war, the bidding war would definitely be extremely intense.
Within Room 308, He Qingxue, who held the Hundred Refinements Cosmos Brush in her hand and felt as if she had eaten honey, looked at Linlong and asked, "Sir, are you not planning to bid for this Rune Seal Flying Device?"
"No." Linlong directly shook his head.
It would be a lie to say he wasn't interested in the Rune Seal Flying Device. However, the problem was that he didn't have that much money on hand.
Of course, if he took out the Rune Seal Sword that he obtained from Yuan Ming, he would still be able to bid for it. However, the problem was that it wasn't worth it for him.
The Rune Seal Sword was also an astonishingly valuable weapon. It could even be used to save one's life at a crucial moment. Linlong didn't want to sell it just for the Rune Seal Flying Device.
He had already decided to borrow Elder Dong's hand to seal the energy within before he left so that it could be used at any time.
"You don't plan to sell that porcelain?" He Qingxue asked curiously.
Although Linlong didn't mention the value of the porcelain, He Qingxue felt that it was also something that could be sold for a high price. Hence, she asked this question.
"No." Linlong shook his head. "I really can't see the value of that thing."
"Oh." He Qingxue nodded.
While the two of them were chatting, the price of the Rune Seal Flying Device was directly raised to a price of 100 million cloud coins. Such a price really made many people dumbfounded.
This price might seem expensive to them, but Linlong felt that it was just right to reflect its value. After all, it would be different to have such a flying device.
The person who called out this price was the guest in room 305. In the end, it was also the guest who took the flying device into his pocket.
After the auction of the Rune Seal Flying Device, another item was brought to the auction stage. It was a scroll. What surprised the people present was that this scroll looked incomparably new. It was obviously newly made.
The auctioneer pointed at the scroll and said, "I believe that everyone present here has heard of this matter. That is, there is a spiritual fire around the Black Ridge Gorge. Everyone is troubled because they don't know the exact location of the spiritual fire. However, everyone doesn't have to worry because this scroll is the location of the spiritual fire …"
"What?"
Hearing the auctioneer's words, the people present were all shocked.
"Of course, this address does not accurately point out the location of the spiritual fire. Hence, everyone will need to slowly search for it after obtaining the map. However, with so many people searching, we will definitely be able to find the exact location of the spiritual fire." The auctioneer continued.
"You mean that there is more than one copy of this map?" Seeing that the scroll was brand new, some people immediately understood something.
"That's right." The auctioneer nodded his head, "We have drawn a total of over a hundred of these maps, and each one is only 100,000 cloud coins. If you want one, you can tell the attendants beside you, and they will send the map to you."
"However, why did you reveal this information? Is the Yunyan Palace really that generous?" Someone immediately questioned.
These words received the approval of everyone present.
The auctioneer could not help but smile bitterly, "This map does not belong to us. Of course, after obtaining the map, our Yunyan Palace originally wanted to monopolize it. However, we found out that it was extremely difficult to find the exact location. Because of this, we decided to sell the map to everyone here, so that we can pool our wisdom and find the location of the hidden treasure as soon as possible."
"There is one more thing that everyone can rest assured about. Through our research, the original version of this map does indeed point to a certain ancient ruins. Therefore, everyone does not need to worry about being cheated."
"Lastly, we must solemnly state that our Yunyan Palace can only guarantee that this map does indeed point to a certain ancient ruins. However, it does not mean that there is a treasure like the spiritual fire within the ruins."
Soon after, the auctioneer continued to add.
This kind of addition allowed everyone present to understand what was going on. In a moment, everyone began to discuss spiritedly.
"Alright, let's start the auction for the next treasure. As for this map, whoever wants it can tell the attendants beside you."
