Chapter 56 Duping Blissful Heaven Temple
56 Duping Blissful Heaven Temple
The servant was stunned when he heard Long Ming. Seeing his graceful and powerful aura, he couldn't help but feel awestruck.
" Young Noble is wise. This old servant is working here for over five years." The servant bowed respectfully.
" Then, I guess you know your way around the auction and Hundred Treasure Pavilion?" Long Ming smiled. The servant nodded.
Long Ming snapped his fingers at the Bright Bronze Shortsword, the one he got from the system. " Here, Take this as a token of appreciation."
The servant's eyes widened when he held the sword. Just by its looks, he could tell that it was a powerful Xuan grade weapon. He kept the sword hurriedly and bowed. " Servant thanks Young Noble for his generosity."
" Well, Since you are so experienced, Why don't you tell me about the participants in VIP Rooms?" Long Ming spoke. " Especially that one?"
The servant looked at the other VIP room from the glass window as he nodded. " That's the room reserved for the Blissful Heaven Temple."
" I knew it." Mu Qinglian clenched her teeth as she snorted. " Those bastards, one day I will kill all of them."
The servant pretended not to hear anything. Other than them, Those rooms are for Six Sword Pavilion, Violet Cloud Sect, Grand Sky City Lord's Faction. Even someone from the Imperial Clan who joined the auction."
" Other than them, The Ancient Jiang Clan and a Mysterious Force took the VIP Rooms."
Long Ming nodded when he heard that. " Very well, You helped us properly."
The servant bowed as he was about to leave, he paused and turned around. " Young Noble, You should keep an eye on the final item. I heard it was supposed to be a Longevity Pill."
Mu Qinglian and Long Ming became startled when they heard that. After saying that. The servant left quietly.
" Hah, Longevity Pill? I don't think I would be able to purchase that." Mu Qinglian sighed. " But to think our esteemed young master is so generous, handing out a Xuan grade weapon so casually to a servant."
" Well, You can call this an investment." Long Ming chuckled. " I could have tipped him some spirit stones, but giving a treasure is much more significant."
Not to mention, A Green Bronze rank treasure from the system isn't worthy under his eyes. Mu Qinglian chuckled as she focused back on the auction. Since they found their enemies, it will be easier to counterattack.
According to the plan, Long Ming and Mu Qinglian attracted the attention of Blissful Heaven Temple on useless items while Luo Yingying quietly got the items Four Season Valley wanted without much problem. In this way, she already purchased some pills and treasures that are required for them.
However, as the auction progressed, the items started to be precious and more precious. Even Violet Cloud Sect and Six Sword Pavilion jumped to join the fun.
" This is a Five Thousand Year old Skydew Flower. Most of alchemists already know about its special healing property. The bit starts from 200,000 Mid grade spirit stones!"
" 300,000!"
" 400,000!"
" 450,000!"
Long Ming looked at Mu Qinglian as he asked. " Actually, How much money you brought this time?"
" 10 million Mid grade spirit stones." Mu Qinglian answered. Jun Tianyun estimated and saw it was the same as 10,000 High grade Spirit Stones.
However, seeing the auction barely went after its mid point and the prices are hiked so much, Long Ming didn't think ten million mid grade spirit stones will be enough."
" But, That doesn't mean we can't play big." Long Ming chuckled. " Say, Senior Sister Mu, Does our sect require Skydew Flower?"
" Well, It can be used to create a powerful medicine pill that can heal any sort of injury or regrow flesh and skin. Of course it's in high demand."
Long Ming grinned as he nodded. " Increase the bit to one million."
" What?!" Mu Qinglian was shocked. But seeing Long Ming, she sighed.
" One Million!"
*BOOOM*
It was like a clap of thunder. The auctioneer became pleased as she shouted. " 1 million! Anyone wants to raise the price?!"
" 1.2 Million!"
Naturally, The Blissful Heaven Temple will not let the chance go away Long Ming chuckled as he nodded. Mu Qinglian shouted, " 1.5 Million!"
" Two million!"
Mu Qinglian snorted as she was about to raise the price, but Long Ming stopped her. " It's enough for now. We have already cast out bait."
Saying that he whispered something in Mu Qinglian's ears.
Mu Qinglian then shouted, " Hateful! How dare you obstruct our biddings?!"
" Heh, Saintess Mu is being unreasonable. If you have money, Why don't you spend it? The auction is everyone's after all."
Long Ming recognized the voice. He was Mo Zhu, the bastard who tried to mess with him in the Literary Meeting in Eternal Spring Tower. Long Ming's lips curled as he snorted.
' Since you dared to mess with me again, Don't expect me to not fuck you up.'
After that, Two Earth grade treasures appeared and they got snatched by the City Lord's Faction.
" The next item is an ancient rock found in the tomb of an unknown expert. Although the materials are unknown, we concluded that it can attract a great amount of True Qi from the surroundings. However, other than that, we don't know anything."
Long Ming's Heavenly Revelation Eyes opened as he scanned the rock. At that moment, he also felt many other divine senses observing the rock.
" Well, The bid starts from, 100,000 Mid grade spirit stones."
Everyone became silent as they looked at the rock. Spending money on some useless rock isn't a wise thing. However, Long Ming felt different.
He channeled his Desolate Immortal Aura into his Heavenly Revelation Eyes as he peered at the rock again.
*BZZT BZZT*
Long Ming hastily withdrew his aura as his eyes flashed with disbelief. " Senior Sister, Ask Luo Bingyu to purchase it,"
" Huh? But… I don't see any specialty in it."
" Just do it!"
Luo Yingying got the message as she nodded. " 100,000 Mid grade Spirit stones!"
" 150,000!" The Violet Cloud Sect made their move. Luo Yingying didn't back down as she increased by price by another 50,000.
Soon, The price reached 500,000. But Luo Yingying didn't back down. Suddenly, Long Ming made a bid, 700,000."
" Huh? Why are you bidding against Ying'er?" Mu Qinglian became even more confused. This time, Blissful Heaven Temple didn't make any move.
" And, This rock goes to Four Seasons Valley."
Long Ming looked at Mu Qinglian and asked. " Senior Sister, Can you get that rock here as fast as possible?"
' Since we purchased it, It's possible."
Soon, the rock arrived in their room and Long Ming touched it. His Desolate Immortal Aura touched it as the rock shone with a golden light.
*BZZT ZTTT*
The outer layer of the rock cracked as a golden page emerged from it. Suddenly, the entire room was covered by the daoist rhythms as mysterious runic chains shot out from the page.
The daoist runes filled the entire auction hall, making everyone gasp in shock. They could feel their cultivation trembling from the daoist rhythm. The connection of heavenly dao became vivid as if they are manifesting themselves right there.
Long Ming pinched the page as the daoist runes sealed back in that page.
" This… This is a Supreme Intent left behind by a Dao Refining Realm master. Just one step beneath Ancient Lord Realm!" Mu Qinglian's lips quivered as she was shocked.
Long Ming curled his lips as he increased his voice. " It's truly a blessing in disguise. Who would have thought an ordinary rock contained a page of Supreme Intent? Thankfully, We got it."
The entire hall exploded into discussion when they heard it. They couldn't help but praise the kneen sightedness of Four Season Valley.
" This next item is an ancient painting of a sword. It was recovered in one of the Forbidden Zones. The bid starts from 200,000 Spirit Stones."
" 250,000"
Mu Qinglian started the bid. Following her, the bid started to increase explosively. Finally, It was only Blissful Heaven Temple and Four Season Valley competing.
" Five Million!" Mu Qinglian shouted in an angry voice. " Hmph, Blissful Heaven Temple shouldn't bid if they don't have money."
" Seven Millions!"
" Tne Million!"
" Twelve Million."
Mu Qinglian became anxious, but seeing Long Ming, she kept bidding. " Hey, I don't have that much money. Are you sure that painting is a supreme treasure as well?"
Long Ming nodded. " I am very sure that painting is definitely…Not a treasure. It's simply trash."
Mu Qinglian's expression turned stiff as her eyes widened. " What! You told me to bid a dozen million for a trash item?!"
" Well, It's trash, We know that. But…Blissful Heaven Temple doesn't know." Long Ming let out a wicked grin. Soon enough, Blissful Heaven Temple increased the price by five million and the price of the painting reached 17 million spirit stones."
At that moment, Mu Qinglian sighed. " Well, Now I don't need it. I am quitting."
" And the painting is sold to Blissful Heaven Temple for 17 Million Spirit Stones!" The auctioneer announced. Long Ming laughed loudly when he heard that.
" Did you like our sweet revenge, Senior Sister? We made them spend 17 million on trash."
Soon, Luo Yingying returned to the room as she heard Long Ming. " Really? Hahaha, Serves them right. You are a genius, Senior Brother." Luo Yingying laughed loudly.
Since her task is over, she can now relax in the VIP room.
" The final round of auction has started. This is a peak class Sky grade Cultivation Technique: Golden Sun True Fire Law!"
" The bid starts from Two million stones!"
Long Ming could feel the desires in Mu Qinglian's and Luo Yingying's eyes. However, within a matter of minutes, the price soared to 50 million stones. In the end. Finally, it got snatched by the Six Sword Pavilion.
The next item was something that shocked Long Ming.
" This is 1 KG of Azure Mirthil! An exceptional material to forge powerful treasures! With this, you might even be able to forge a Royal Class treasure!"
" The bid starts from 10 Million spirit stones!"
' Eh? Azure Mirthil? Didn't I get that from God of Wealth System? I have around 100 KG though?'
Long Ming swallowed a mouthful of saliva when he saw the bidding turned crazy in that instant.
