Chapter 121 You tricked me, I tricked you



Xia Tianqiong glanced at it, ignored it, and placed the Enlightenment Fruit in front of the human-headed dog.

"Hey handsome!"

The lizard let out a sweet, cloying cry, trying to change Xia Tianqiong's mind through coquetry.

As a result, it ignored it and turned around and left the mirror space.

The hanged man stomped his feet in exasperation, but there was nothing he could do.

"Who do you think you are! How dare you compare to me?"

The human-headed dog was extremely smug. After making a sarcastic remark, it left with the Enlightenment Fruit in its mouth.

The hanged ghost was slightly taken aback, then suddenly understood.

Human-Head Dog and Xia Tianqiong have a Human-Master Contract, they are family, while I have an Equal Contract with Xia Tianqiong, I can only be considered a partner, it is impossible to treat them equally.

Suddenly, my firm belief began to waver.

Should we also change to a human-master contract?

This guy seems pretty good!

Xia Tianqiong, for reasons unknown, left the mirror space and continued participating in the auction.

However, unlike before, it is not as extravagant, and like other strange things, it gradually increases the price instead of scaring people away with an exorbitant price.

After all that, I hardly bought anything, but ended up getting scammed by inflating prices.

The Tree Demon Clan was the main target of the traps.

"Attention everyone, this next artifact is the second to last item up for auction. Your chances are running out, so act fast!"

The host enthusiastically introduced the item, picking up a dark red object from the table next to him, which looked like an inkstone.

But if you casually toss it into the air, it will instantly expand and grow larger.

In the blink of an eye, it transformed into a huge pool with a diameter of thirty or forty meters, and with a loud bang, it crashed onto the ground.

The pool walls were made of dark red stone, and there was some dark red liquid inside.

At the same time, a strange, ghostly power spread out, and all the strange beings present unconsciously became vigilant.

"This artifact is called the 'Ghost Transformation Pool.' Throwing ghosts into it will transform them into a special liquid that can be used for alchemy or consumed directly. It can quickly repair damage to ghost bodies and is even better than Nether Gold. In addition, it can also assist in cultivation, so it has many benefits."

At this point, the host looked up at the No. 1 VIP box and said, "If a human is thrown in, there is a 30% chance that they will be transformed into a low-level monster."

The basic level of the supernatural is a supernatural being lower than the wild level. It does not have mastered the rules of death or supernatural arts, and is basically not dangerous.

"The starting price is two million, and each bid must be at least one hundred thousand more."

After the host finished speaking, the bidding began on site.

All the strange creatures seemed to be very interested in this mysterious artifact.

"Twenty million!"

A shout suddenly drowned out all other sounds.

The group of ghosts looked up and found that it was the number one in the Heavenly Order again, and it was the same old routine.

Xia Tianqiong stood in front of the railing, his face full of excitement. He waved the number plate in his left hand and held a handful of ghost money in his right hand, looking every bit the nouveau riche.

Judging from their posture, they seemed determined to win.

But after this trick was used twice, the monsters became wary, and immediately no one raised the price anymore, afraid of being stuck with a bad deal.

Sister Tao raised an eyebrow and gradually smiled.

"There's always a second time, but not a third or fourth. This is the third time he's used this bluffing tactic. I'm certain he's got his eye on this strange artifact and will eventually buy it."

Walnut Tree frowned and said, "But the money given by the Leng family has already been used up. Even if you guessed right, there's no way to raise the price."

"If we all pool our own money, we can raise twenty or thirty million."

Upon hearing this, the dozen or so tree spirits around looked at each other in bewilderment, and no one uttered a sound.

"Maybe we should just forget about it! There's no need to take the risk."

"Exactly, what if we end up with something that's broken? We don't need such a strange weapon."

None of the tree spirits agreed, and Sister Peach was immediately displeased.

“He’s cheated us several times, and I can’t swallow this. I have to get my revenge. I have over ten million myself. If you can give me another ten million, even if we just raise the price by another hundred thousand, it’ll still be considered cheating him, and we’ll get a cut.”

The auction is protected by a forbidden array on this floating island. Anyone who cannot afford the bids but still makes unreasonable bids will be directly attacked by the rules.

Therefore, you must prepare enough money before you can start bidding.

Although the tree spirits were unwilling, they were intimidated by Sister Peach's authority and still managed to scrape together ten million ghost money for it.

The host deliberately slowed down the bidding pace, giving them time to raise the money.

"VIP number 89 has offered 20.1 million. Would you like to raise the bid?"

The host, Gui, directly addressed Xia Tianqiong from a distance.

He was the only one present who might raise the price.

Xia Tianqiong smiled and looked in the direction of Sister Tao, "No, if it wants it so much, let it have it!"

Congratulations to guest number 89 for winning the bid for the 'Strange Tales Pool'!

The host immediately turned around and congratulated Sister Tao with a smile.

Sister Tao's eyes were fixed, her face stiff, and she sat there, completely dumbfounded.

How is that possible?

How could he give up? He couldn't possibly be wrong!

In fact, Sister Tao was right. Xia Tianqiong really wanted the 'Changing Ghost Pool' and she absolutely had to get her hands on it.

He had heard of this mysterious artifact; it was renowned in his previous life.

It is said to be a malevolent entity that used the "Pool of Demonic Transformation" to transform hundreds of thousands of people into monsters, forming a massive army of monsters that destroyed one human city after another.

Its level of harm is approaching that of the Ghost General and the Ghost King.

Xia Tianqiong also wanted to use this strange artifact to create a bizarre army that could sweep across both realms.

Of course, this is just his wishful thinking, and it's hard to say whether it can be realized.

The reason he didn't bid a high price was because he planned to rob the other party.

Just snatch it away; it'll save you money too.

The auction continued, with only one item remaining to be bid on.

"Next up is the grand finale of this event. I believe many strange beings have traveled from afar just for this."

The host glanced around the room, paused deliberately for a moment, and then suddenly raised his hand and pointed to the sky.

Suddenly, the sky darkened.

All eyes turned upwards, and there was a huge island floating in the sky.

It seems to have been there all along, just hidden, and only now has it revealed itself.
