Chapter 317: Chapter 202: Auction (Part 2)
In the private room, Li Mu sat by the window, savoring Spirit Wine, while observing the scene below in the hall, taking everything in at a glance.
At the center of the hall were several hundred seats, where Nascent Soul Cultivators and representatives from various forces entered one after another, often accompanied by young and beautiful, graceful female cultivators.
The seating in the audience area was also hierarchically arranged, with those having stronger Spiritual Pressure or being representatives of a certain power arranged at the front row of the seats.
Afterwards, sorted accordingly, the weakest Loose Cultivators sat in the back row, and soon, seats for several hundred people in the hall were filled.
Li Mu noticed Wan Ling Daoist in the central location; he was always with friends, currently chatting leisurely with several Nascent Soul True Monarchs.
Seeing this scene, Li Mu put down his wine cup, furrowing his brow in thought.
Besides nearly a hundred VIPs in the Xiang Pavilion, over five hundred Nascent Soul Cultivators in the hall, the rest were representatives from various forces and Loose Cultivators, all with power above the Golden Core.
The auction hadn’t officially started yet, as cultivators engaged in conversations, exchanging pleasantries, with a lively atmosphere.
About half an hour passed.
"Dang dang dang..." Several clear and lodious bell sounds echoed throughout the hall.
These bell sounds clearly emanated from a Magical Artifact, resounding like Buddha’s Voice, carrying a marvelous aning that calms the heart, gradually soothing the agitated emotions of the listeners.
Instantly, the bustling hall quieted down.
In the next mont, Lin Baoqing walked out from the side of the hall, smiling broadly as he stepped onto the auction platform, accompanied by four Divinity Transformation powerhouses, forming a four-sided array.
Unnoticed, they ford a bizarre Illusion Array, protecting Lin Baoqing in the middle, ensuring high security.
"Is this really necessary?"
Li Mu had participated in many auctions, but had never seen a setup like today’s.
While Li Mu wondered about Lin Baoqing’s grand arrangent, a clear voice sounded in the private room; Wan’Er’s voice ca from the door: "Senior, Shopkeeper Lin has arranged to send so cuisine, may I open the door?"
"Co in!"
The door opened in response, and Wan’Er entered with seven-eight people, delivering a heap of exquisite Spiritual Cuisine, Treasure Lotus Stewed Spirit Chicken, Stead Noble Spirit Fish, Duo Bao Buddha Tower,..., various rare and delectable dishes, all slling delicious.
"Senior, please enjoy slowly. This auction will last for a whole day. Due to the large number of items, each auction item does not have a fixed classification." Wan’Er kindly reminded.
Li Mu nodded, sowhat surprised to learn that this auction would take a whole day; indeed, this was quite rare.
Wan’Er, adept in reception for years and a keen observer, noticed Li Mu’s puzzlent and promptly explained: "Desolate Ancient City is the junction leading to other Spirit Realms and the Central State, attracting nurous visitors; hence, many rare treasures will be auctioned here to exchange for needed rewards."
"Given the large volu and more items, Lin Baoqing chose not to categorize the items, taking out one at a ti for auction."
"Also, due to the sheer number and imnse wealth involved, so law-breaking Demon Cultivators or Thieves have committed illegal robberies while relying on their powerful strength!"
"Besides the four Guardians by Lin Baoqing’s side, in the Nine-story Tower, there are also three Void Refining Realm Lord Law Enforcers keeping the scene under watch."
Three Void Refining Realm individuals?
Li Mu’s heart skipped a beat as he raised his head, surprised to find hidden compartnts in the Nine-story Tower, and even more astonished that Ten Thousand Treasures Pavilion harbors three Void Cultivation Powerhouses.
"No problem sharing this secret with ?"
Li Mu nodded with a smile, curiously asking Wan’Er.
"Haha, senior worries too much; many people already know about the existence of the three Lord Law Enforcers; it’s no longer a secret!" Wan’Er giggled, covering her mouth.
Li Mu realized, marveling at how Desolate Ancient City is far from peaceful on the surface; indeed, undercurrents are surging.
With such a large flow of people, it is inevitable that so mbers of Evil Cults may be hiding here.
Likely, people from Nine Demons Sect are also concealed within Desolate Ancient City, so discretion is advised; hands shouldn’t be hastily raised unless necessary.
Realizing this, visiting the Celestial Secret Pavilion to check out current hot issues seems worthwhile.
As Li Mu pondered, on the auction stage, Lin Baoqing encapsulated his abundant True Essence in his voice, laughing aloud: "Distinguished guests, welco to the auction at Ten Thousand Treasures Pavilion. I’m sure most of you know , so I won’t waste ti with self-introductions. Spiritual Objects are countless, and those with destiny may obtain them; our eting here is fate. I hope everyone participates with an open heart in the auction according to your strength, so as not to disrupt harmony among yourselves."
Having recited the mundane speech countless tis, Lin Baoqing completed it and then took out a rather peculiar Storage Magical Treasure.
The treasure’s form was a triangular floating crystal block in the palm, emitting strong energy.
Li Mu used his recognition ability imdiately ca to know its attributes, discovering that this treasure was a Tier Six Lower Grade Spiritual Treasure, requiring a special thod to open it.
Seeing this, Lin Baoqing flicked his finger, and a tallic double blade brimming with imnse energy leaped forth.
The Golden Saber exuded powerful aura, accompanied by Demon Tiger Spiritual Artifacts, each three zhang in size, dragging the Treasure Saber as they ran rampant within the array, emanating intimidating Sword Qi.
"Good saber!"
A Swordman Nascent Soul True Monarch, upon seeing the double blade, his eyes burned with intense heat.
Other Nascent Soul True Monarchs were equally agitated, wishing at once to acquire this rare Treasure Saber.
