Unfortunately, they, as fire-elemental users, did not possess such abilities, so although he felt this way, he had no intention of bidding.
But as soon as the flying sword was brought out, everyone's eyes widened and their breathing became rapid. For every cultivator, this level of flying sword magic weapon was fatally attractive to them.
For people like Long Shi Hu and Gu Dao, this was no exception. The moment their flying swords were drawn, Gu Dao shouted, "I'll offer one million mid-grade spirit stones!"
One million mid-grade spirit stones is equivalent to one hundred thousand high-grade spirit stones, which is a huge sum of money.
The auctioneer on stage was stunned, because the price of this flying sword was only 500,000 mid-grade spirit stones, and the other party immediately offered 1 million mid-grade spirit stones, which was indeed beyond her expectations. Before Gu Dao could finish speaking, Long Shi Hu shouted from the side: "I bid 2 million!"
The two most influential people in the room spoke up one after another, shouting out such high prices. How could the cultivators sitting in the audience not know just how good this flying sword was?
Therefore, for a moment, everyone disregarded the status of Long Shi Hu and Gu Dao's background, and the voices of bidding rose and fell!
"I'll offer three million!"
"I'll offer four million!"
"I'll offer four and a half million!"
"I'll bid six million!" Gu Dao shouted, raising the price by another 1.5 million in one go. His eyes were full of confidence, determined to acquire the magic flying sword. Hearing Gu Dao say this, the faces of the people around him turned ugly. This guy was really rich and powerful, not caring at all about how high the price had been raised.
The price of six million instantly shut out 99% of the cultivators present. The cultivator who had just bid four or three million had practically brought out all his wealth for the auction, but Gu Dao easily defeated him.
Their faces turned quite ugly, and a flash of anger appeared in their eyes as they looked at Gu Dao.
Gu Dao, however, was completely unconcerned. Looking at the broken and somewhat angry cultivators, a disdainful smile appeared on his lips.
"You penniless idiots dare to compete with me for magic weapons? You're courting death!"
Guan Wen was quite surprised to see Gu Dao's arrogant demeanor. Who would have thought that Gu Dao would be so arrogant? If this guy hadn't relied on his family's power, he probably would have been devoured alive by the cultivators in the auction house long ago.
However, upon closer reflection, he realized that if this guy didn't have such influence at home, he probably wouldn't have been able to attract so much hatred by bidding so high. This guy's arrogance was a vicious cycle that seemed impossible to break.
However, none of this concerned him, so he simply shrugged and continued watching the show.
Among all the people present, only one or two could still raise the price against Gu Dao, including Long Shi Hu.
Upon hearing Gu Dao's price of six million, Long Shi Hu immediately shouted, "I'll bid seven million!"
"I'll offer eight million!" another person shouted.
"I'll offer nine million!" Gu Dao continued to follow up.
"I'll offer ten million!" Dragon Lion Tiger then raised the price.
"I'll bid eleven million!" Gu Dao shouted. The other person, who was also a little unable to accept the offer of ten million, simply shut his mouth.
When the number reached eleven million, Long Shi Hu's expression turned extremely ugly, and beads of sweat even appeared on his forehead. Although he was a craftsman, he didn't have much money, and he also had to craft all sorts of divine rings, which required a lot of money.
Therefore, he had to think for a long time before calling out a price, while Gu Dao was different. No matter what price he called out, the Gu family would back him up. And with the Gu family's wealth and power, how could they not be able to pay such a small amount of spirit stones?
That's why he shouted whatever he wanted, and was extremely arrogant.
"Twelve million!"
"Thirteen million!"
"Fourteen million!"
"Fifteen million!" When Gu Dao announced fifteen million, the dragon lion tiger fell silent and remained silent for a long time. At this moment, the auctioneer on the stage hesitated whether to bring down the gavel and complete the transaction.
However, judging from the situation inside the auction hall, the dragon, lion, and tiger seemed to be willing to raise the price, but they hadn't made up their minds yet.
Seeing Long Shih-hu's expression, Gu Dao couldn't help but grin, as if he had already won. The reason he dared to ask for such a high price was not only because his family was backing him, but more importantly, because this True King Realm magic weapon flying sword was indeed quite useful to him. However, this flying sword seemed somewhat useless to a refiner of Long Shih-hu's level, because he was, after all, a refiner, and there were few situations where he could directly engage in combat with others. Of course, as a cultivator, having a life-saving magic weapon was still very important, but was it really worth spending 15 million, or even more, to buy this magic weapon flying sword?
He was a craftsman with extensive connections. He could easily command a powerful force that would risk their lives for him, in exchange for a divine ring he crafted.
Although this flying sword looks good, it is not necessary for the dragon-lion-tiger.
This is precisely the point that Longshihu has been struggling with in his mind.
"Old man, if you really don't want to buy it, then give me this magic weapon flying sword!" Gu Dao seemed to have seen through Long Shihu's thoughts and shouted directly. Hearing Gu Dao say such a thing, Long Shihu's face became even uglier. To be honest, at this point, whether he could buy this magic weapon flying sword or not depended not only on whether it was suitable for him, but also on his own face.
