Chapter 99: The End Of Auction
Feng Jiu Ge was expressionless as he looked at the delight in water and mountain Immortal Gu in his hands, his gaze flickering slightly.
"After repeated twists and turns, I finally obtained this Immortal Gu. Even if I had to spend quite a lot, but considering the rewards for the sect's missions, they should be enough to cover for it and even more."
"Even though I had to sacrifice vaguely familiar face, it was only a portion of it. Even if I had to give the complete version, the core Immortal Gu are still with me, so I don't have to fear the other side using it."
Feng Jiu Ge thought it over for a while, his expression gradually easing up.
In the main hall, many Gu Immortals were bidding for the Immortal Gu. While Fang Yuan, similar to Feng Jiu Ge, did not have his attention on the platform, but on the goods he obtained.
After a while, Qin Bai Sheng had already auctioned the final few Immortal Gu. Among them, the second last Immortal Gu unfortunately went unsold.
The anticipation of the Gu Immortals were already pouring out of their gazes.
Everyone was aware the next would be the main highlight of the auction — auctioning the essence of the luck path true inheritance!
After secretly getting in contact with Qin Bai Sheng, Fang Yuan and Tai Bai Yun Sheng changed their secret rooms.
Not only them, many Gu Immortals also did the same.
"Now it is time for the auction of the first item of the essence of the luck path true inheritance, it is a set of Gu recipes for luck inspection Gu." Qin Bai Sheng had just spoken and already attracted the intense attention of many Gu Immortals.
Looking at the restless Gu Immortals, Qin Bai Sheng continued: "This set of luck inspection Gu recipes does not only include the Gu recipes of the mortal Gu from rank one to rank five, it also has a remnant Immortal Gu recipe for rank seven luck inspection Immortal Gu."
"Hmm, is there not any luck inspection Immortal Gu?" Heavenly Lord Bai Zu asked.
Qin Bai Sheng smiled: "There is indeed a luck inspection Immortal Gu which is rank six and is with me, but I don't want to sell it. But I can guarantee that apart from this Immortal Gu, everything related to luck inspection Gu is being auctioned off."
"Not selling luck inspection Immortal Gu?" Immediately, a Gu Immortal in the main hall frowned and showed his dissatisfaction openly.
Qin Bai Sheng snorted as he gave the speaker a deadly stare: "This is merely a rank six luck inspection Immortal Gu, I am confident of having the ability to protect it. Guo Rong, do you have an opinion? If you buy this Immortal Gu, can you keep it safe?"
Gu Immortal Guo Rong's expression changed, and he kept quiet.
After this small interlude, Qin Bai Sheng listed the requirements for trade: "Because this does not involve Immortal Gu, you can use any resource to trade for it. Be it immortal essence stones or the immortal materials in the list."
Saying so, he took out a list.
There were a dozen or so immortal materials mentioned on the list, and the requirements for their quantities was not high like the shocking list that Fang Yuan brought out earlier.
Because it did not involve Immortal Gu, the threshold for the bidding was low and for a while, most of the Gu Immortals made bids one after the other.
In the main hall, the sounds of the bids being called out rose and fell, the speed of the bids being called out could be said to be at the peak since the auction began.
The price quickly soared in the intense atmosphere.
Qin Bai Sheng looked at all this with a smile on his face. Since he held this auction, he naturally made arrangements that were more profitable to himself.
Finally, only some experts like Yao Huang, the Eastern Sea rank eight Gu Immortal, Feng Jiu Ge and Yuan Rang Zun were left.
Finally, this mortal Gu recipe had reached a high price, and leaders of several forces were almost going to exchange with Immortal Gu.
It was then that Yao Huang said: "I will guarantee on my name, if I purchase it first, I will put this Gu recipe for sale in the open transaction later."
Qin Bai Sheng felt very dissatisfied with this, but showed a smile on the surface, not daring to offend Yao Huang.
"Next, is the second item. A rank seven Immortal Gu of luck path called Reverse Misfortune! As the name implies, this Gu can change a person's bad luck to good luck!" Qin Bai Sheng introduced loudly.
Finally, the price kept on soaring till it surpassed the high price records of Worldly Wave Trace and Delight in Water and Mountain, and took the first position.
The intense bidding had finally ended.
In the end, the rank eight Gu Immortal, Five Elements Grandmaster, used a rank seven metal path and a rank six metal path Immortal Gu, along with countless immortal materials to become the eventual winner.
After Reverse Misfortune, it was another rank seven Immortal Gu, called Blessing in Disguise.
This Gu's ability was quite mystical, it targeted the immortal aperture's calamities and tribulations.
After using it, when a Gu Immortal completes a tribulation, the increase in the number of dao marks on them would be twice that of the original amount!
But this Gu had a flaw, it had to be activated before the calamities and tribulations. It could only stop after the calamities and tribulations had ended. Through the effect of this Gu, the calamities and tribulations would have a thirty to forty percent increase in strength, based on their original power.
This weakness dampened the enthusiasm in the Gu Immortals slightly. But they could still not resist the temptation.
As a metal path Gu Immortal, Qin Bai Sheng naturally requested for a rank seven metal path Immortal Gu as the base bid.
Eventually, Heavenly Lord Bai Zu had sweat on his forehead as he defeated his competitors, obtaining this Gu.
"The next item is the final, and most important item in this auction." Qin Bai Sheng introduced it as such.
Just as everyone was guessing to themselves what Immortal Gu it was, Ma Hong Yun and Zhao Lian Yun, who were unconscious, appeared on the stage.
Qin Bai Sheng spoke at an appropriate time: "Please do not be alarmed, I am sure a lot of Gu Immortals have guessed it already. That is right, these two are the crucial people who were protected by the luck path true inheritance previously. This girl is called Zhao Lian Yun, she was very intelligent since a young age, and had experienced the crucial battle in Imperial Court blessed land.
Although she was not the true inheritor, she had obtained a lot of benefits inside the luck path true inheritance light lump, she had obtained a portion of the luck path inheritance. As for this young man, he is Ma Hong Yun, the one and only recognized inheritor of the luck path true inheritance!
Not only did he experience the battle in Imperial Court blessed land, he even has had the fortune rivalling heaven Immortal Gu used on him."
Once he said that, the commotion was like a huge wave.
Saying this, Qin Bai Sheng paused and said in an enticing tone: "I have bad news to share with everyone first. The luck path true inheritance is undoubtedly incomplete, the details do not contain the Immortal Gu recipe of fortune rivalling heaven Immortal Gu. But there is good news, in the inheritance details, there is a method to take back Fortune Rivalling Heaven.
It is possible to reverse refine the used fortune rivalling heaven Immortal Gu and obtain the original Immortal Gu. Of course, during the process of refinement, the main material would be this young man, Ma Hong Yun."
Hearing these words, most of the Gu Immortals had eyes shining like they were going to burst out in fire, some even gulped, as everyone was filled with anticipation and desire!
Qin Bai Sheng's lips curled, he showed a confident smile: "I feel that these two youngsters can best represent the essence of the luck path true inheritance. I will not be setting a base price for them, because they are not Immortal Gu. You can bid for one of them, or both of them at the same time. We will start now!"
"No base price? I will offer three hundred immortal essence stones!" One person shouted within the hall of enthusiastic Gu Immortals.
"Thirty thousand immortal essence stones." Feng Jiu Ge said coldly, multiplying the bid by a hundred times!
But this price could not stop the enthusiasm of the other experts, it could only deny most of the bottom tier Gu Immortals.
Yao Huang, the Eastern Sea Gu Immortal, Five Elements Grandmaster, Old Ancestor Xue Hu, and Heavenly Lord Bai Zu, they were still bidding, and the representatives of the super forces were not showing weakness either.
The price skyrocketed at an extremely fast pace!
The bidding of Ma Hong Yun and Zhao Lian Yun lasted for much of the hour.
Eventually, two unthinkable prices stood at the top two spots, at the record highest prices in this auction.
The second spot was Feng Jiu Ge, he had bought Zhao Lian Yun.
The one who obtained Ma Hong Yun was the rank eight great expert Old Ancestor Xue Hu. The leader of Snowy Mountain blessed land, the number one person in the demonic path, had shown his incredible wealth at the end of the auction.
"The main auction has ended. Next, there will be a two hour break for everyone to move around in the auction hall. Two hours later, we will have the open transaction."
After Qin Bai Sheng said that, he left the stage.
"After this auction is over, I will escape and hide from the world. After managing and processing my gains for most of a century, I will roam the world after that." Qin Bai Sheng decided in his head.
Two hours later, Qin Bai Sheng stepped onto the stage again, announcing the start of the open transactions.
For the sake of fairness, he did the same thing again, using Gu worms to choose a lucky person to enter the stage first.
This first Gu Immortal took out a large amount of an immortal material, broken wave flowers, his request was — prosperity soil.
The seller on the stage actually had large numbers of broken wave flowers. After trading for one thousand and five hundred kilograms of prosperity soil, he waved his hand and left the stage.
When it was Fang Yuan's turn, more than thirty rounds had passed.
"The thirty-seventh secret room is selling a Gu Immortal captive." Qin Bai Sheng said as he displayed the sleeping Gu Immortal inside the sleeping cloud coffin.
Immediately, the auction hall went into a commotion.
At once, Gu Immortals discussed as their expressions varied.
When Qin Bai Sheng announced it again, the scattered conversations in the hall became softer.
Someone asked for the details.
Qin Bai Sheng introduced: "This Gu Immortal captive might be familiar to some of you, he is Loner Hong Yu, a rank six fire path Gu Immortal. His cultivation is at one heavenly tribulation. This is the situation inside his blessed land, you can all take a look."
Saying so, the image on the stage changed, reflecting the situation of Loner Hong Yu's immortal aperture.
Just as Qin Bai Sheng had expected, Loner Hong Yu became a sought after commodity.
Fang Yuan listed a broad range of requests. First, he listed a large amount of immortal materials After that, he asked for desolate beast corpses.
Eventually, Loner Hong Yu went into Five Elements Grandmaster's hands.
After selling Loner Hong Yu, the next person was up.
After this was the complete recipe of Red Fiend Divine Boat Gu House including Immortal Gu.
There were many bids, but at last there were only four parties left they were Heavenly Lord Bai Zu and three other super tribes.
Eventually Lord Bai Zu won with the help of Fang Yuan, who gave him three immortal captives in exchange for Unravel Mystrey Immortal Gu.
Time passed, four hours later, this auction which included various outstanding people finally ended.
"There is still no reply from Fairy Li Shan's end?" Fang Yuan secretly asked Tai Bai Yun Sheng.
Tai Bai Yun Sheng quickly sent his message: "Nothing until now. Fairy Li Shan actually missed such a grand event, it seems there is definitely some issue on her end. Do we return through the previous route?"
"No, we will first leave along with the others, then use Fixed Immortal Travel. We need to be careful, though, there will definitely be turmoil soon." Fang Yuan reminded.
Tai Bai Yun Sheng nodded with a serious expression.
Snowy Mountain blessed land.
Third branch peak.
Jade green light shined and extinguished, Tai Bai Yun Sheng appeared in the room.
"There has been no response from either Fairy Li Shan or Hei Lou Lan, in accordance with the alliance, we must look into this."
"The most probable place is here!"
Shortly, the two found Fairy Li Shan and Hei Lou Lan in a bedroom.
"They are lying on the bed… sleeping?" Tai Bai Yun Sheng was dazed.
He was about to walk closer but was stopped by Fang Yuan: "Don't approach them, it is dangerous!"
"What danger?"
Fang Yuan's eyes let out a sharp light: "They are in a dream realm. If we approach them, we will also be ensnared."
