Chapter 474 The Cultivator Who Used Immortal Grid Stones to Bid
Mo Wuji's spiritual will swept out unreservedly. After just one circle, he discovered that there were at least five Golden Immortal powerhouses here.
Because Mo Wuji's spiritual will swept out so recklessly, dozens of spiritual wills immediately landed on him, many carrying sharp warnings.
Mo Wuji acted as if he didn't feel these spiritual will warnings, and continued to scan the cultivators present with his spiritual will. Not only that, he unceremoniously swept back at those who warned him, also carrying an overbearing and tyrannical aura.
He didn't intend to be low-key when he came to Jinyun Bazaar to participate in the auction, so how could he fear other people's spiritual will warnings?
Perhaps because no one knew Mo Wuji's identity, even though Mo Wuji was recklessly courting death, no one came forward to cause trouble.
Mo Wuji was just being high-profile. If others didn't come to trouble him, he naturally wouldn't look for trouble before the auction. He walked into the auction venue very ostentatiously.
First Cultivation Commerce Building was only considered a small, ordinary building in Yongying Corner. The auction token Mo Wuji received was only a numbered seat in the main hall, with no private room.
Mo Wuji didn't care about this, as he didn't want to hide his tracks here at all.
Han Qingru and Tong Ye knew Mo Wuji's plan, and just sat silently on either side of him. They were also well aware that there would be a great battle after this auction.
If they won, they could go to Yingbian City. If they lost, there was nothing more to say.
Because this auction was jointly organized by all the forces in Yongying Corner, a great number of people came, almost everyone of any importance in Yongying Corner. Not long after Mo Wuji and his companions sat down, the cauldron-shaped auction venue was already packed.
Half an hour later, after all the cultivators with jade tokens had entered the auction venue, the entrance restrictions were sealed.
A crystal platform with a radius of several zhang rose from the center of the auction venue, and a beautiful, voluptuous woman stood on the crystal platform.
As soon as Mo Wuji saw this woman, he knew that she had condensed her Immortal Lattice, and was likely a Perfected Heaven Immortal cultivator.
After the woman bowed respectfully to the surroundings, she said crisply, "The Yongying Corner Grand Auction is only held once every ten years, so it can be considered our Yongying Corner's largest auction. I am the auctioneer for this event, Li Yue. On behalf of the various bazaars of Yongying Corner, I welcome powerhouses from all directions to participate in this auction. This auction features many treasures, and I wish everyone here can purchase the treasures they desire.
Now, let me explain some of the rules for this auction. This auction does not accept Low-Grade Immortal Crystals. Bids must be made using Immortal Lattice Stones, High-Grade Immortal Crystals, or Mid-Grade Immortal Crystals. Each Immortal Lattice Stone will be valued at ten High-Grade Immortal Crystals. Secondly, no one is allowed to interfere with other people's bids during this auction, otherwise they will be expelled from the auction venue on the grounds of provocation. Anyone who makes a move will be killed directly.
Now, let the auction begin. The first treasure to be auctioned is a Rank 3 Immortal-Grade Technique, Howling Moon Wolf Claw. The starting price is 10,000 Mid-Grade Immortal Crystals, and each bid must be at least 1,000..."
After Li Yue finished speaking, a dark yellow jade slip directly floated in front of her. The jade slip was wrapped in restrictions, and spiritual will could not penetrate it.
Mo Wuji inwardly gasped. One Immortal Lattice Stone was equivalent to ten High-Grade Immortal Crystals. He had as many as thirty to forty million Immortal Lattice Stones on him. How many Immortal Crystals would that be equivalent to?
Back then, he had indeed been ripped off badly by that guy named Gong Hou. He had only exchanged his 100,000 Immortal Lattice Stones for three million Low-Grade Immortal Crystals, which was only 30,000 High-Grade Immortal Crystals. This guy had only given him a fraction of the actual price. Doing Immortal Lattice Stone business in Yongying Corner was truly incredibly profitable.
Tong Ye was also tongue-tied, and said to Mo Wuji, "Brother Mo, this is simply outrageous."
Mo Wuji smiled, "Brother Tong, Senior Sister Qingru, feel free to bid on anything you fancy, don't hold back, and don't worry. I'll take care of the payment."
Mo Wuji gave Tong Ye two million Immortal Lattice Stones to help him condense his Immortal Lattice. What he said was to tell Tong Ye not to take out the Immortal Lattice Stones for condensing his Immortal Lattice for trading.
Without Mo Wuji's reminder, Han Qingru and Tong Ye understood. If calculated in this way, Mo Wuji was probably the wealthiest guy here.
While the three were talking, the Rank 3 Immortal-Grade Technique, Howling Moon Wolf Claw, had already been purchased for 67,000 Mid-Grade Immortal Crystals.
"Congratulations to that friend for obtaining the Rank 3 Immortal-Grade Technique, Howling Moon Wolf Claw. Next up for auction is a Rank 2 Immortal Fruit, the Fallen Dust Immortal Fruit. The starting price for the Fallen Dust Immortal Fruit is 100,000 Mid-Grade Immortal Crystals, and each bid must be at least 10,000..."
If the competition for the Howling Moon Wolf Claw wasn't particularly fierce, then the name of the Fallen Dust Immortal Fruit immediately ignited the entire auction venue.
The Fallen Dust Immortal Fruit was indeed not considered a high-level Immortal Fruit, only Rank 2. Some Heaven Immortal cultivators wouldn't even bother to look at a normal Rank 2 Immortal Fruit. The Fallen Dust Immortal Fruit was different. It was an Immortal Spiritual Fruit that gave Heaven Immortal cultivators a chance to advance to Golden Immortal.
Heaven Immortal cultivators needed the Fallen Dust Immortal Pill to advance to Golden Immortal. The main ingredient of the Fallen Dust Immortal Pill was the Fallen Dust Immortal Fruit. Even if the Fallen Dust Immortal Fruit wasn't refined into an Immortal Pill, it still gave Heaven Immortal cultivators a chance to overcome the tribulation and become Golden Immortal powerhouses.
Heaven Immortal cultivators were as numerous as hairs in Yongying Corner, so the price of the Fallen Dust Immortal Fruit naturally soared as soon as it appeared.
Mo Wuji certainly knew about the Fallen Dust Immortal Fruit. If that Three-Eyed Dove hadn't harmed him by throwing a Fallen Dust Immortal Fruit at him, he would have almost failed to advance to Heaven Immortal.
In a short time, the Fallen Dust Immortal Fruit had already soared to 300,000 Mid-Grade Immortal Crystals.
"Brother Mo, I think we should bid for this Immortal Fruit. Even if we can't refine the Fallen Dust Immortal Pill ourselves, we can ask another Immortal Pill Master to refine it for us," Tong Ye said from the side.
Even if Tong Ye didn't say it, Mo Wuji would definitely take down this Fallen Dust Immortal Fruit.
"5,000 Immortal Lattice Stones," Mo Wuji started bidding.
As soon as Mo Wuji's price came out, the auction venue fell silent.
It wasn't that Mo Wuji's price was too high. In fact, before Mo Wuji bid, the price of the Fallen Dust Immortal Fruit was already close to 400,000. Mo Wuji's bid of 5,000 Immortal Lattice Stones, equivalent to 500,000 Mid-Grade Immortal Crystals, although a large increase, wasn't outrageous, after all, it was a Fallen Dust Immortal Fruit.
The outrageous part of Mo Wuji's bid was that he was bidding with Immortal Lattice Stones. Even though the auction said that Immortal Lattice Stones could be used as Immortal Crystals, how many people were actually willing to use Immortal Lattice Stones to bid?
Immortal Lattice Stones were simply impossible to buy, especially in a place like Yongying Corner, where there were few ways to condense Immortal Lattices, and Immortal Lattice Stones were the main means of condensing them. If it were in the Immortal Realm, there would be more ways to condense Immortal Lattices, and Immortal Lattice Stones wouldn't be so precious.
Many spiritual wills landed on Mo Wuji, and they quickly learned who Mo Wuji was. He was the arrogant Heaven Immortal cultivator who had swept everyone with his spiritual will before entering the auction.
Some people were already investigating Mo Wuji's background. Someone who could bid with Immortal Lattice Stones and was so arrogant must have a powerful background.
"5,000 Immortal Lattice Stones once, 5,000 Immortal Lattice Stones twice, 5,000 Immortal Lattice Stones three times! Sold!" Li Yue called out three times in almost the shortest possible time.
The auction was naturally much more valuable when traded with Immortal Lattice Stones than with Immortal Crystals. She would rather have 5,000 Immortal Lattice Stones than 550,000 Mid-Grade Immortal Crystals.
The transaction was even faster. As soon as the deal was made, the auction sent the Fallen Dust Immortal Fruit to Mo Wuji. Mo Wuji had plenty of Immortal Lattice Stones, so he immediately paid 5,000 Immortal Lattice Stones.
After the transaction was completed, Li Yue waved out the third item and said, "Next up for auction is a Rank 3 Immortal Artifact, the Twin Impermanence Rings. The starting price is 50,000 Mid-Grade Immortal Crystals, and each bid must be at least 5,000 Mid-Grade Immortal Crystals..."
After announcing the price, Li Yue's gaze constantly fell on Mo Wuji's side. However, Mo Wuji had no interest in the Twin Impermanence Rings at all, and had no intention of bidding.
