Mortal Seeking Immortal

Lin Hao said, "I know."

Then he continued to bid: "Seven hundred lower-grade spirit stones."

In the box, Ye Zhou frowned and continued to raise the price: "Eight hundred lower-grade spirit stones!"

Lin Hao did not give in: "Nine hundred lower-grade spirit stones!"

Ye Zhou's heart sank: "One thousand lower-grade spirit stones!"

Whether the deal was done or not, this was Ye Zhou's final offer. If he continued, it might cause Lin Hao to be suspicious. Ye Zhou did not want to reveal the secret that he had another fragment of the map.

In any case, if Lin Hao could not get his fragment, it would be impossible to piece together the complete pattern. When Ye Zhou's cultivation became stronger in the future, he could return to Pingsha City and rob his fragment.

"This young patriarch of Pingsha City is so keen on fighting for this map. Could it be that he also has a related map fragment?"

When the audience heard the price of one thousand lower-grade spirit stones, they all thought that Ye Zhou was crazy for shouting out this price. Some people also speculated that perhaps Ye Zhou was deliberately raising the price to make Lin Hao unhappy.

Lin Hao gritted his teeth and continued to bid: "One thousand and one hundred low-grade spirit stones."

Everyone's eyes gathered on Ye Zhou's box. After waiting for a long time, Ye Zhou did not speak, until Xue Mei finally announced that this fragment of the map was successfully bought by Lin Hao.

Someone whispered: "It seems that the young clan leader upstairs offended someone, and the other party deliberately raised the price. This time, the young clan leader spent an extra 500 spirit stones to get the fragment of the map, which is a big loss!"

Not only one person thought so, many people thought so. Lin Hao relied on the power of Linjiabao and was used to being arrogant and domineering. He offended many people openly and secretly. If he didn't have a good father, I'm afraid he would have been skinned and torn apart long ago.

The words of the people below naturally did not escape Lin Hao's ears. Lin Hao's face became extremely gloomy, and the veins on his hand holding the armrest of the chair were exposed.

At this time, the door of the box was knocked, and a maid came in holding a fragment of the map. She stood in front of Lin Hao and said, "Young Patriarch Lin, the fragment is here. Please pay 1,100 low-grade spirit stones."

A trace of heartache flashed across Lin Hao's eyes. Although he was the young patriarch of the Lin Family Castle, he did not receive many spirit stones every month. These more than a thousand spirit stones were also a considerable expense for him.

Resisting the heartache, Lin Hao took out all the spirit stones from the storage bag and paid them to the maid. He carefully picked up the fragment of the map, gently squeezed it, and broke the formation set on it.

Lin Hao quickly checked the fragment of the map and breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, he was not wrong. This fragment of the map was indeed from the same map as the one in his hand. As long as he put the map together and followed the instructions on the map to get the treasure hidden somewhere, then his more than a thousand spirit stones would not be wasted.

However, Lin Hao naturally did not intend to share this opportunity with other people in the clan. Even the four elders around him did not know that he had other matching map fragments on him, so they could not immediately take them out to piece together and see if the map was complete.

Next, the auction of the Golden Silkworm Net and the Insect Feeding Pill Recipe. Although there were also people bidding with Ye Zhou, fortunately Ye Zhou had more spiritual stones prepared, and he bought these two things at the price of 3,500 low-grade spiritual stones and 8,000 low-grade spiritual stones respectively.

The Golden Silkworm Net was golden in color, and its tentacles were very soft. When it was shrunk, it was only the size of an egg. As soon as Ye Zhou injected spiritual power, the Golden Silkworm Net opened to the size of a person in the blink of an eye.

The opened Golden Silkworm Net was like a huge spider web. The whole net was made up of golden silkworm silks as thick as a little finger. Upon closer inspection, each silk was mixed with a few black and thin black iron wires.

Ye Zhou slapped the storage bag, and a Qi training middle-grade flying sword immediately flew out of the storage bag and chopped at the Golden Silkworm Net without hesitation.

The moment the golden silk net came into contact with the flying sword, a crisp sound of sharp weapons colliding was heard, just like the flying sword slashing on an iron net. The golden silk net shook a few times and then quickly tightened and closed, tightly binding the middle-grade flying sword of Qi training. No matter how Ye Zhou controlled it, the flying sword could not break through the golden silk net.

Ye Zhou walked closer and took a closer look and found that some sticky liquid was secreted on the inner surface of the golden silk net. It was these liquids that stuck the flying sword to the golden silk net, and it could not break free in a short time.

Ye Zhou's mind moved, and the golden silk net opened again, and the flying sword was able to escape the restraint of the golden silk net and flew back into the storage bag on Ye Zhou's waist. Ye Zhou reached out and took back the golden silk net with satisfaction.

"It seems that these 3,500 low-grade spirit stones were not wasted. If they are caught off guard, the cultivators in the early stage of foundation building will also suffer a loss and find it difficult to break free."

Ye Zhou picked up the recipe of the Insect Feeding Pill on the table again. After a quick glance at the recipe, Ye Zhou found that refining the Insect Feeding Pill did not require very precious or high-year spirit plants. The spirit plants used were some ordinary low-year spirit plants, which were planted in Ye Zhou's cave.

When I go back, I will refine a furnace of Insect Feeding Pills to feed the mysterious beetle I hatched. This beetle can bite flying swords when it is young. Ye Zhou is very much looking forward to what changes it will have when it grows up.

After putting away the Insect Feeding Pill recipe, Ye Zhou heard Xue Mei below auctioning one of the six 1,500-year-old spirit plants he took out, and watched with anticipation.

Xue Mei auctioned these six spiritual plants separately, one at a time, with the starting price of each plant set at three thousand low-grade spiritual stones, and each bid must not be less than one hundred low-grade spiritual stones.

Even with such a high starting price, the first Moon-Watching Grass that was taken out still set off a wave of enthusiasm among the cultivators present. All the cultivators were extremely excited, and everyone in Lin Family Fort also participated in the auction of this spiritual plant.

Many cultivators were determined to spend all their money to get this spiritual plant. The price of Moon-Watching Grass soared, and soon it rose to 4,000 low-grade spiritual stones, which was already 1,000 spiritual stones higher than the reserve price Xue Mei had paid him in advance.

But the bidding continued. The ordinary guests sitting in the audience could only become spectators of the auction because they were short of money. Now the main bidders were concentrated in the boxes on the second floor, among which the Lin Family Castle was the most fierce.

A quarter of an hour later, the auction of this thousand-year-old Moon-Watching Grass finally came to an end, and it was won by the Lin Family Castle at the price of 4,500 low-grade spiritual stones.

Then, Xue Mei took advantage of the opportunity and took out the remaining five thousand-year-old spiritual plants and put them on the stage for everyone to bid.

In the end, the five thousand-year-old spiritual plants were sold at a price of no less than 4,000 low-grade spiritual stones each, and the six thousand-year-old spiritual plants successfully brought Ye Zhou a total of 24,500 low-grade spiritual stones.

Ye Zhou couldn't help but feel a little excited. This was the first time he had obtained so many spirit stones since he started practicing. Now he wouldn't be short of spirit stones for a short time.

However, because these six thousand-year-old spirit plants were too precious, everyone seemed to be uninterested in the subsequent auctions. Several auction items didn't sell for a good price, and Xue Mei couldn't help but feel a little helpless.
