Since those golden elixir monks made no move, Ye Mo decided to take a gamble. If those golden elixir monks made another bid, he would probably not follow.
"1.4 million"
The price quoted by Ye Mo only paused for a few breaths before it was surpassed by another foundation-building cultivator.
The price of the soul-fixing beads has been increasing slowly. Although it is slow, each time the price increases by 100,000 spirit stones, it gradually becomes unbearable for the foundation-building monks.
Ordinary casual cultivators have no way to bid. They are representatives of various forces, so they can afford to pay more than one million. But their quotations are still very difficult.
When the price reached 1.9 million, there was silence at the trade fair.
It is not that there are no top-level magic weapons on the market. In the Fairy City Alliance's legal auction, it is not difficult to get a top-level magic weapon or magic weapon for two million.
Although the soul-fixing beads have strange effects, ordinary Five Elements monks still value the Five Elements magic weapon more. After all, at the same level, the Five Elements magic weapon can improve the Five Elements monks in a significant way, which is far beyond the reach of the soul-fixing beads.
Soul-fixing beads are only of great use to certain "special" monks.
The one who beat the crowd and quoted a price of 1.9 million was still the black-shirted monk who made the first bid.
Because this person's voice, breath, and appearance were all tightly obscured by various spiritual weapons, Ye Mo didn't know if this person was a ghost cultivator.
"President Zeng, what do you mean? It's already half time to burn incense, why don't you start the countdown?"
After a long silence, the black-shirted monk became impatient.
For a general auction item, if no one bids for about ten seconds, the host of the trade fair will start a countdown. After three countdowns, he will drop the wooden hammer in his hand, which means the final word. Even if there is another bid after that, it will not be counted.
.
"two million"
Ye Mo gritted his teeth and after confirming that there was no offer from the Golden Core cultivator, he quoted a higher price again.
Cheng Jingshan, who was sitting next to Ye Mo, slowly turned his head. Although there was a mask blocking him, the sweat on his forehead still flowed down his face.
"You spend two million to buy a ghost cultivation tool. Are you deliberately going against me?"
The black-shirted monk's face changed drastically. Hearing Ye Mo's quotation, he was so angry that he stood up from his seat and roared at Ye Mo.
"The rules of the Silent Trading Fair are that no one is allowed to prevent others from quoting. This fellow Taoist, if it happens again, I will kick you out directly."
The host of the trade fair said with a cold expression.
"If you have the guts, Zeng, give it a try."
The black-shirted monk was so angry that he even ignored the host of the trade fair.
Host Zeng was stunned. He really didn't see the identity of the black-robed monk. He wore a mask like the other monks, but the black-robed monk called out his last name. He must have been someone he was very familiar with.
"Huh, this trade fair is jointly organized by two Golden Elixir Immortals. Several final treasures, including this Soul-fixing Pearl, are also provided by the two Golden Elixir Immortals. Whoever has the best will get it."
Host Zeng only said half of what he said, and all the monks present already understood the meaning.
The black-shirted monk did not allow other people to bid with him. Wouldn't it mean that the two golden elixir monks were cut off from their financial opportunities?
No matter how arrogant and domineering the black-shirted monk was, he had to stop his activities at this moment. He glared at Ye Mo fiercely and then sat down with a thought.
"Two million and one million"
The black-shirted monk reluctantly shouted out a higher price. This was his final bottom line and there was no way to increase the price.
The price of more than two million spirit stones is already considered sky-high.
Almost all the monks from various forces have withdrawn from the competition. Except for the golden elixir monks who have never spoken, only Ye Mo and the black-shirted monks are still competing at the entire trade fair.
"Two million and two million"
Ye Mo didn't even think about it and directly increased the price.
His idea is very simple. As long as the Jindan cultivator does not speak, he will never give in. The value of the Soul-fixing Pearl cannot be measured by the spirit stone. It determines whether he can remove the resentful spirit of Xuan Yue Sword Master from the Purple Sword.
Rescued from the dungeon of Asgard.
The value of Xuan Yue Sword Master cannot be compared to millions of spiritual stones.
Ye Mo raised the price without hesitation, which shocked all the monks. In the blink of an eye, dozens of eyes were fixed on Ye Mo.
"Could this person be a ghost cultivator? Otherwise, how could he act so determined to get this thing?"
"I'm afraid it's really a ghost cultivator. If he were a Five Elements cultivator and had two million spiritual stones, he would have bought top-notch Five Elements magic weapons long ago. Why bother with this soul-fixing bead? I didn't expect that ghost cultivators would also start to appear blatantly."
Many monks couldn't help but started talking.
Most of the monks regarded Ye Mo as a ghost cultivator, which Ye Mo had not thought of beforehand.
Ye Mo pondered for a moment, thinking that it would be good to be misunderstood like this. Two of the five golden elixir monks in the small room behind him should be the organizers of this auction. The remaining three golden elixir monks, as long as they are not ghost cultivators,
The possibility of competing with him is extremely low.
Even an ordinary Jindan cultivator cannot easily produce more than two million pieces of spiritual stones.
For ordinary Five Elements cultivators, the greatest function of Soul-fixing Pearls is to nourish resentful souls. Unfortunately, powerful golden elixir stage resentful souls are not so easy to find.
Thinking that the long-awaited Soul-fixing Pearl was about to fall into his bag, Ye Mo's mood gradually improved.
The black-shirted monk seemed to be frightened by the people's comments, his face was twisted, and after thinking for a moment, he spread his hands and said: "Well, since this thing is so important to you, I will reluctantly give up my love once and sell you a favor.
Don’t steal the treasures at the back from me again.”
"Thank you for your permission. After I have this item, even if I am interested in the following treasures, I don't have the strength."
Ye Mo stood up, suppressed the excitement in his heart, and thanked him.
The auction of Soul-fixing Pearls has lasted for a full hour, and even the host of the trade fair seems to be unable to hold on any longer.
The high auction price of 2.2 million had exceeded his expectations, so after only a brief silence, he raised the wooden hammer in his hand.
"In this case, this fellow Taoist bids 2.2 million spiritual stones. If no one else raises the price, I will start counting down."
There was silence in the venue, and no one raised the price.
"Bang bang"
Ye Mo seemed to be able to hear his rapid heartbeat.
"Three" hosted Zeng and counted down to the first number in a long voice.
The venue was still silent, and almost everyone thought that the first treasure, the soul-fixing bead, was about to fall into Ye Mo's hands.
"two"
"Wait a minute"
A deep voice suddenly interrupted the countdown hosted by Zeng.
"It's a golden elixir monk"
All the monks present heard the source of the sound and were immediately shocked.
"It seems that my luck is not good enough."
Ye Mo felt bitter in his heart, as the thing he was most worried about finally appeared.
The golden elixir monk who is willing to pay a high price of more than 2.2 million to buy this thing is probably a ghost cultivator. Ordinary golden elixir monks may not be willing to pay such an outrageous price.
"Two million and three hundred thousand spiritual stones, little friend, I'm very sorry, I want this thing." The tone of the voice was calm, but it revealed an irresistible majesty.
Hidden under the mask, no one could see Ye Mo's complicated and depressed expression.
At this juncture, the success fell short. The feeling of being cut by a knife was probably just that.
Although he had been mentally prepared for it, Ye Mo still couldn't let go when the treasure he got was really taken away, and he hesitated whether to bid again.
His right foot was touched by someone with his toe. Ye Mo woke up and knew that it was Cheng Jingshan who was reminding him. This is the price offered by the Jindan cultivator. Don't fight for it.
"Since the senior is interested in this thing, the junior will naturally not take advantage of the senior."
Ye Mo slowly stood up and bowed to the small room behind him where the Golden Core Ghost Cultivator was.
With a humble posture, the golden elixir ghost cultivator in the room smiled faintly. Unexpectedly, this junior was so understanding and immediately withdrew from the competition for the soul-fixing beads.
"That's very good. I've been a little short of money recently. If you really fight with me, I'll really bleed. If it weren't for this thing that is so important to me, I wouldn't have to fight for it with you, a younger generation. Just be me.
I owe you a favor.”
The golden elixir ghost cultivator said calmly.
Ye Mo felt a hundred reluctances in his heart, but the matter had come to this, and he knew that offending the Golden Core cultivator on such an occasion would not end well, so he had no choice but to accept the result.
The auction of the soul-fixing bead went through several twists and turns, and finally fell into the hands of a mysterious golden elixir monk.
Many people felt sorry for Ye Mo, but they did not dare to show it in front of the Golden Core cultivator.
Then someone brought the soul-fixing bead into the room for handover. After the Jindan monk took the soul-fixing bead, he walked out of the room directly and left the trade fair through the teleportation array.
"It seems that this person came here specifically for the Soul-fixing Pearl."
Ye Mo looked deeply and said to Cheng Jingshan beside him.
"I'm afraid Brother Ye can only wait for the next opportunity. Even the Five Elements Golden elixir cultivator does not dare to offend the Golden elixir ghost cultivator easily. The strength of the ghost cultivator is extraordinary and can be matched by monks of the same level. I was really afraid of Brother Ye just now and
This person is fighting for the soul-fixing pearl."
Thinking of the previous scene, Cheng Jingshan still has lingering fears.
Ye Mo shook his head and continued to focus on the exhibition stand at the trade fair.
Because the most important Soul-fixing Pearl had been bought, he was no longer interested in the remaining items. After a few items were sold, he stood up and prepared to leave.
"Fellow Taoist, the senior who bought the Soul-fixing Pearl just now left you a locator, asking you to use this talisman to meet that senior after the auction."
Seeing that Ye Mo was about to leave, a trade fair guard in black took a few steps forward and handed over a light yellow paper charm.
"Looking for me?"
Ye Mo's heart tightened and he took the paper talisman.
"I've already given him the Soul-fixing Pearl. What else are you looking for from me? Could it be that you're interested in the spiritual stone in your hand?"
Ye Mo was wary.
However, facing an invitation from a Golden Core monk, who was probably a mysterious ghost cultivator, he couldn't refuse easily, otherwise he might arouse the person's dissatisfaction.
The guard handed over the paper talisman and left directly to continue performing his duties. Ye Mo and Cheng Jingshan teleported out directly through the teleportation array at the entrance of the hall.
The same beautiful woman from before was still waiting by the teleportation array in the courtyard and sent the two of them out.
Standing in a dark alley, Ye Mo looked at the locator in his hand, thoughtfully.
