“After cultivating the ‘Angry Flame Mantra’, spiritual energy will be imbued with flames. With each move, the attack power will be extremely strong.”
“The starting bid is three million. Each increment must not be less than 100,000.”
Lin Mo had just dropped the auction hammer when the sound of bidding rang out.
“3.1 million.”
“3,300,000.”
“3,500,000.”
“…”
Cultivation techniques were rare resources everywhere, especially cultivation techniques that hadn’t been passed down before.
This was precisely the case for this raging flame mantra. It had never appeared in many auctions before.
Hence, even the crown prince had participated in the bidding.
“4,500,000.”
The crown prince made his move, and the price directly surpassed a large group of people. At the very least, everyone in the hall was shocked.
However, no one was willing to give up.
“Five million.”
The second prince also made a bid. Among his hangers-on, there were also some who were on the Yan Huang Feng Yun list, which was just right for this cultivation technique.
Now that the other party’s level had risen, since he was his subordinate, he definitely couldn’t treat him unfairly.
“Hehe, since second brother wants it, then I won’t fight for it. I’ll keep the money to bid for the final treasure.”
The crown prince laughed lightly. Seeing that the second prince was competing, he decisively gave up.
“Thank You, Your Highness.”
The second prince laughed lightly. If the crown prince didn’t compete, then he would naturally be happy.
Today, the Zhennan King didn’t come to the auction. The only one who could compete with him seemed to be the Nirvana Realm powerhouse not long ago.
And there was another… It was the mysterious person who had raised the price several times with him…
“Five million once. Is there anyone willing to bid?”
Lin Mo said with a smile. However, looking at everyone’s expressions, it seemed that no one dared to bid anymore.
That’s right. Since the crown prince had given up, they didn’t dare to not give him face.
As for those who were qualified to compete, they either didn’t come or didn’t need the Fury Flame Mantra…
“It’s a loss, but it’s very good. This was sent by someone else…”
Lin Mo was extremely happy, he dropped his hammer and shouted, “5,000,000 going twice, the raging flame art isn’t just at this price, have you all given up?”
“5,000,000 going thrice, sold.”
Seeing that no one had bid yet, Lin Mo finally dropped his hammer and sold the raging flame art at a low price.
[ Congratulations host for successfully auctioning the spirit rank 7 cultivation technique, raging flame art ]
“You have successfully triggered the 10,000 times auction return.”
“Congratulations, host, for obtaining the half-step earth rank fire attribute cultivation technique, great burning heavens mantra.”
“My goodness, a half-step earth rank cultivation technique. I’m going to make a fortune this time…”
Lin Mo nodded his head in satisfaction. Unless it was a special cultivation technique that could be compatible with the God Devouring mantra, he would not cultivate cultivation techniques like this.
Moreover, Jiang Xiyue had the Taiyu recuperation technique, while Xiao Die had the cultivation technique from her innate imprint.
Therefore, the cultivation technique was the last thing he needed. He could even learn martial arts.
“Half-step to earth-rank. Who cares?”
Lin Mo looked at the crowd below, whose eyes were burning with passion.
Although these people knew that they had no chance for the finale treasure, they still wanted to see what the finale would be.
“Everyone, sorry for the wait. The finale treasure that everyone has been waiting for has arrived. I guarantee that it will make you all excited.”
Lin Mo smiled and took out a scarlet red scroll from the system space.
As soon as it appeared, balls of flames gathered in the air.
Faintly, even the space seemed to be unable to withstand the burning flames and was about to shatter.
“Half-step earth grade fire attribute cultivation technique, great burning heaven mantra. It was found by a senior of Yue Xuan’s while he was touring around in an ancient ruin.”
“Back then, in order to obtain this cultivation technique, that senior almost lost his life.”
Lin Mo casually made up a story and showed the great burning heaven mantra to everyone.
Runes circulated and the flames boiled. Even sweat appeared on Lin Mo’s forehead.
Even the Yanhuang Divine dynasty didn’t have many half-step earth grade cultivation techniques.
In the private room, the crown prince had already stood up. His gaze was fixed on the scroll in Lin Mo’s hand.
The runes on it were so intense, and the flames it emitted were so real.
This was undoubtedly a top-tier cultivation technique. If someone could comprehend it thoroughly, they might be able to improve it even further.
Earth tier cultivation technique…
This was simply unimaginable. If he could auction it back and put it back into the national treasury.
The mistakes he had made in the past would basically not be investigated, and he would even receive a reward from his father.
“Lin Mo, oh Lin Mo, you’re really my lucky star…”
The crown prince sighed and slowly sat down. Right now, the only thing he was worried about was that someone wanted to compete with him…
“I won’t say any more nonsense. This is the introduction of the Great Burning Heavens Technique. The starting price is 15 million, and each increment must not be lower than 1 million.”
“The auction will begin now.”
Lin Mo smiled faintly. With such a high starting price, he had no choice.
It seemed like there was no one left in the auction hall who could compete with the crown prince in terms of wealth.
If he didn’t raise the price a little, then he would be at a loss.
Moreover, this was a treasure given by the system at a rebate rate. Even if he were to sell it at a loss, there wouldn’t be any rebate. Thus, he would earn whatever he could.
Even though he didn’t care about half-step earth realm cultivation techniques, he still cared about spirit stones. If he could earn them, he would definitely earn them.
“Hiss…”
The sounds of gasps rang out one after another, and everyone in the hall gulped.
This was too ruthless. With such a high price, they didn’t even have the qualifications to participate…
“Hehe, there shouldn’t be anyone who wants to compete with me, right?”
The crown prince walked out of the private room, looked at Lin Mo, and said with a smile, “Brother Lin, with such a high starting price, could it be that you’re worried about selling it at a loss?”
Lin Mo quickly waved his hand and smiled. “Your Highness, what are you saying? I didn’t set the starting price. I can’t change it.”
“It was all ordered by the higher-ups. We had no choice but to auction like this…”
Lin Mo directly blamed Jiang Xiyue. She was in seclusion now anyway, so she wouldn’t know that he had tarnished her reputation…
“Who would believe it…”
Everyone looked at Lin Mo in disdain.
The eighth princess had been in seclusion for some time, but there was still no news. Even the Emperor had responded to her summons.
Moreover, she had already announced to the public that Lin Mo was the master of the Lunar Pavilion.
She didn’t want to sell out and act like she was throwing the blame onto the eighth princess. It was unforgivable…
“Haha, I See. We hit it off the moment we met. I can’t make things difficult for you anymore. I’ll bid 20 million. Does anyone want to bid?”
The crown prince laughed. Raising the bid by 5 million was not to show his magnanimity. It was because he did not want to make things difficult for Lin Mo.
“Thank you for your understanding, your highness. It’s a pity that this ‘Great Burning Sky Mantra’ is not mine. Otherwise, I could gift it to Your Highness… “Lin Mo cupped his fists and thanked him.
On the other side, the second prince also walked out of the private room.
Seeing this, the crown prince smiled and said, “Why? Does second brother also want to participate?”
The second prince shook his head, bowed, and said, “Your Highness Crown Prince is too serious. Just now, you gave way to me, and now it’s my turn. I Won’t fight for this ‘Great Burning Sky Mantra’.”
“After all, you and I are brothers. If you don’t respect your elder brother, what kind of decency would that be? If Your Highness didn’t raise the price quickly, I would have wanted to buy it and gift it to you…”
Everyone below the stage rolled their eyes.
Especially the heads of some families and forces, they all curled their lips. The three people on the stage added up to more than a thousand minds…
“They’re all actors, competing in acting skills…”
