Starry Sky Pier Restaurant, a man wearing a starry sky hat quickly made his way to the auction hall of the Star Seeking Commerce Building. Whether viewed from the front, the side, or even his aura, it was undoubtedly Mo Wuji.

However, Mo Wuji was now seated in an inconspicuous location. The shielding array around his seat had already been activated. Unless he deactivated it, no one could penetrate his barrier with their spiritual sense.

Pongo Mai, his face beaming with smiles, walked to the center of the auction hall. "Friends, this auction will feature many amazing treasures, so I will be personally hosting it. I hope all of you will be able to purchase the treasures you desire. Let me clarify that this auction will only accept Starry Sky Contribution Points. Alright, let the auction begin!"

"The first item is a book. This book is neither a cultivation technique nor a magical skill. It is a book of chronicles, a record of observations and experiences. I've flipped through it, and it contains all sorts of interesting anecdotes, such as why the Immortal Path was severed, why eternal life is absent, and the origins of the Half-Moon Immortal Palace and the Half-Moon Key..."

To be honest, Pongo Mai was very reluctant to auction this book, because it would not bring any benefit to the auction and would even cause some trouble.

But the Yan family insisted on it, and he had no choice. At least for now, the Yan family had absolute control over the Star Seeking Commerce Building.

Du Xinghong had told Mo Wuji that the Star Seeking Commerce Building was a product of the Yan family, which was not entirely correct. The Star Seeking Commerce Building was not 100% owned by the Yan family. Pongo Mai's previous attempt to find Mo Wuji was genuinely to earn some contribution points from him.

As soon as Mo Wuji heard about the Half-Moon Key, he thought of the Half-Moon Key that Pang Qi had been swindled out of by the Jing family. His first reaction was whether or not to buy it. But he quickly dismissed the idea. He didn't know what connection the Half-Moon Key had with the Half-Moon Immortal Palace, and he didn't want to know. With the Jing family involved, it was hard to say that the Yan family wasn't also involved. His priority now was not some book of chronicles, but to quickly obtain a staff technique.

Mo Wuji was not interested, but many others were interested in the book. In a short time, the value of the book climbed to 9,000 contribution points. A book of chronicles reaching 9,000 contribution points was a very high price. In the end, the book was purchased by a cultivator in one of the private rooms.

In private room seventeen on the second floor of the auction hall, a man in grey was staring at a huge array monitoring screen.

Unlike the private rooms of others, where the array monitoring screens displayed the bidding prices of the auction hall and the introduction of the items being auctioned, the array monitoring screen in front of him showed every corner of the auction hall.

"Check who just bought the book of chronicles," the grey-clad man said in a low voice almost as soon as the book was bought.

"Yes," a cultivator standing next to him said before quickly leaving.

Not long after, the cultivator returned. "It's an old man with an unfamiliar face, who seems to have disguised himself."

The grey-clad man nodded. "Add this person to the list of targets. And has Mo Wuji made any moves?"

The cultivator immediately responded and then said, "After Mo Wuji entered the large private room, he has shown no unusual activity so far."

…

Pongo Mai took out the second item to be auctioned. "The next item to be auctioned is a superior-grade spiritual armor, with a starting price of 5,000 contribution points. Each bid must be no less than 100."

Hearing that it was an armor, Mo Wuji almost couldn't help but bid. But considering his situation, he still restrained himself. He should avoid making frequent moves, as frequent actions would attract attention.

Soon, the armor rose to over 10,000 contribution points and was bought.

"The third item to be auctioned is a Heaven-Grade cultivation technique, the Flowing Cloud Sacred Tome..."

Before Pongo Mai could finish speaking, there was a commotion in the auction hall. Not everyone had activated the isolation arrays on their seats like Mo Wuji.

Pongo Mai raised his hand to quiet the crowd. "Although the Flowing Cloud Sacred Tome is a Heaven-Grade cultivation technique, it is incomplete, so the starting price is 50,000 contribution points. Each bid must be no less than 1,000 contribution points."

Despite Pongo Mai saying that the Heaven-Grade cultivation technique was incomplete, the price still climbed to 100,000 contribution points in a very short time, and was still rising.

Mo Wuji marveled inwardly, never expecting the attraction of a Heaven-Grade cultivation technique to be so great. Would there be many people competing with him when his Brahma Staff Silhouette came out?

He had a total of only 1.6 million contribution points on him, of which 1 million were from the Star Seeking Commerce Building, and 500,000 were obtained from the Xia family's One-Horned Arena. In order to get these 500,000 contribution points, he had signed a contract with the One-Horned Arena, which stipulated that he must go to the One-Horned Arena to participate in challenges as soon as the auction ended. He could only leave the One-Horned Arena after ten days.

This contract was known only to him and the One-Horned Arena, and not to anyone else, including the Star Seeking Commerce Building.

Mo Wuji naturally would not tell the Star Seeking Commerce Building, and the One-Horned Arena would certainly not tell the Star Seeking Commerce Building either.

Only the Xia family's One-Horned Arena dared to do this. If it were any other arena, even if Mo Wuji signed a contract with them, they probably wouldn't dare to compete with the Star Seeking Commerce Building for business.

"650,000 contribution points. Is there anyone else who wants to compete with me? Go ahead and bid." A rich and imposing voice came from a private room on the second floor, followed by the appearance of 650,000 contribution points on the bidding screen.

Pongo Mai waved the gavel in his hand excitedly. "Is there any higher price than 650,000 contribution points? This is the first time..."

Despite Pongo Mai calling out three times in a row, no one offered a higher price. Starry Sky Contribution Points were different from spirit stones. Here, they were much more valuable than earth-grade spirit stones.

Next were various pills, spiritual herbs, and spiritual tools, as well as some scattered cultivation techniques and magical skills. Mo Wuji didn't want any of these.

He didn't even bid for the superior-grade armor that he wanted the most, so he naturally wouldn't bid for these ordinary items.

The auction had been going on for most of the day, and the atmosphere in the auction hall had reached a climax due to the continuous appearance of good items.

"The next item to be auctioned is a magical skill, the Brahma Staff Silhouette. This is a Heaven-Grade magical skill, and it is very complete..."

Pongo Mai's words caused another sensation. Heaven-Grade magical skills, regardless of what kind of spiritual tool they were used with, were sought after by countless people. Not to mention staff techniques, even the most unpopular weapons would be worth a fortune as long as they were associated with Heaven-Grade.

"The starting price for this staff technique is 400,000 contribution points. Each bid must be no less than 5,000 contribution points. Bidding now begins!" Pongo Mai shouted loudly.

Mo Wuji perked up. Isn't the Brahma Staff Silhouette what he had been waiting for? The starting price of 400,000 contribution points was really too high. If he hadn't gone to the Xia family's arena later, he really wouldn't have had the confidence to participate.

In a short time, the price of the Brahma Staff Silhouette climbed to 500,000 contribution points. Mo Wuji didn't rush to bid. He was waiting.

Half an incense stick passed, and there were fewer bids for the Brahma Staff Silhouette. The price had now exceeded 900,000 contribution points.

Mo Wuji secretly thought that it was a good thing he had another trick up his sleeve. If he had simply listened to Pongo Mai, he would probably have left empty-handed today.

"960,000 contribution points." Mo Wuji directly added 60,000 contribution points on his bidding screen.

Mo Wuji's price was broken by 1,000,000 contribution points in just two breaths.

"1,060,000 contribution points." Mo Wuji added another 60,000 contribution points.

At this moment, there was only one private room competing with Mo Wuji. The auction hall became quiet, and everyone was waiting for the outcome of the competition between Mo Wuji and this private room.

Everyone wanted the Brahma Staff Silhouette, but it costed over 1,000,000 contribution points, which was simply unaffordable for ordinary people.

Mo Wuji took a breath and directly bid 1,350,000 contribution points, increasing the price by 250,000 contribution points at once.

Many cultivators in the auction hall gasped. Increasing the price by 60,000 was already outrageous. These were contribution points, not spirit stones. Obtaining each point was not so easy. And someone actually called out 1,350,000 contribution points at once. Did he have too many points to spend?

If someone more rational was doing the bidding, they would add another 50,000 to the existing 1,100,000, and the people in the private room would definitely give up. But this fool was bidding out of anger and added 250,000 at once.

Not to mention others, even Pongo Mai, who was hosting the auction, couldn't believe the amount of contribution points he was seeing. This wasn't his first time hosting an auction, but it was the first time he had seen someone spending so recklessly. This was not just a matter of being rich, it was simply brainless.

Sure enough, after Mo Wuji called out 1,350,000 contribution points, the person competing with him in the private room stopped competing.

Mo Wuji wasn't surprised. He knew that after he bid 1,350,000 contribution points, he would definitely scare off the guy who was competing with him.

He didn't want to spend so extravagantly, but he had no choice. He estimated that as long as he added up to 1,130,000, he could basically win this staff technique. He was just afraid that the other party wouldn't raise the price, so he added 250,000 at once.

At the same time, in private room seventeen on the second floor, the grey-clad man looked at the price of 1,350,000 contribution points and asked, "Has Mo Wuji made a move?"

The cultivator next to him quickly said, "No, this person doesn't have more than 1,100,000 contribution points on him. He doesn't have the qualifications to compete for the Brahma Staff Silhouette at all. I heard he's interested in the Nihility Flame Lamp."

"Good, keep a close eye on him when the Nihility Flame Lamp comes out. If I'm not mistaken, this person will leave immediately after obtaining the Nihility Flame Lamp," the grey-clad man said in a low voice.

"Yes," the cultivator beside him responded.

Mo Wuji had already transferred 1,350,000 contribution points through the transfer platform in front of his seat, and at the same time, he had exchanged for the Brahma Staff Silhouette.
