The steward of Yongyi Immortal Pavilion felt this was the most bizarre auction he had ever presided over.
All the items were snatched from the Immortal Sect, and the Immortal Sect had to sit below and bid on them.
He was in a daze, completely unable to believe it.
The auction has begun.
He adjusted his emotions and immediately got into the zone. With a wave of his hand, a colorful and exquisite piece of clothing landed in his hand.
"The first item up for auction today is this exquisite jade pagoda. The pagoda has seven floors, and each floor contains a cultivation technique. If you can refine this exquisite jade pagoda and comprehend its supernatural powers, subduing demons... cough cough, subduing enemies will be a piece of cake. The starting bid is one spirit stone, and each bid must be at least one thousand high-grade spirit stones."
Linglong Sect initially thought it would be very easy to retrieve their sect's treasures, but after a short while, he changed his mind.
Too many humans and demons are bidding for the Exquisite Jade Pagoda, including the immortal sects of the Demon-Slaying Alliance.
The sect leader of the Linglong Sect was furious.
"Sect Leader Su, why are you bidding for my Linglong Sect's magic treasure?"
"The highest bidder wins the auctioned item. Any questions?" Su Meng said bluntly.
Someone interjected, "Sect Master Linglong, that's not right of you. Hundreds of years ago, you stole this Linglong Jade Pagoda from the Broken Sea Immortal Sect."
"Good, good, good! You're right. Don't blame me for snatching your sect's treasures when they're up for auction."
"Hahaha, what a joke! Everyone knows the Linglong Sect was robbed of its possession by demons and is now desperately poor. If you can safely acquire the Linglong Jade Pagoda, you'll have done right by your ancestors."
"You've gone too far."
The Linglong Sect Master's heart was bleeding.
He felt he had fallen into a huge trap.
In fact, many people think so.
They weren't unaware of the scheme. However, they had no choice but to fight for it with all their might; the arrow was on the bowstring and had to be released.
Cultivating immortality is all about seizing opportunities; no one can remain indifferent to the secrets of another sect.
In the past, people who lacked the strength to seize a celestial sect to satisfy their curiosity were now faced with such an opportunity. Countless people went crazy for it, forgetting about loyalty and righteousness, and their long-cherished wishes were brought to the forefront. The loose alliance of the Demon Slayer Alliance thus fell apart.
at last……
The Linglong Sect Master spent an astronomical sum to finally snatch back the sect's most precious treasure.
When he tried to transfer the spirit stones, he was dumbfounded because he didn't have that many spirit stones at all.
Everyone knows the rules of Yongyi Immortal Pavilion: "Disrupting" the bidding rules will result in a beating or a lifetime ban from bidding, or even death and the end of one's cultivation.
With the stewards of Yongyi Immortal Pavilion watching intently from the side, Sect Master Linglong clenched her fists, having no choice but to gamble her life.
Danger is brewing!
One stop is imminent.
Linghu Lan spoke up.
"Sect Master Linglong has no money?"
"Not bad!" The Linglong Sect Master's face turned ashen. He, the sect master, had actually fallen to such a state.
"It's not uncommon for even a hero to have a penny; Sect Master Linglong need not worry about it."
The Linglong Sect Master was surprised that Linghu Lan was so easy to talk to, but since it was all because of her stirring up trouble, he snorted coldly and did not appreciate her kindness.
Linghu Lan laughed, unconcerned.
"If you don't have money, you can use information about Su Li as payment. The more information you have about Su Li, the more you can give to the sect leader."
What? ? ?
Everyone was astonished.
The Linglong Sect Master couldn't believe it: What was this monster up to? But he calmed himself down and decided to give it a try.
"Immortal Venerable Su Li comes from the Dao of Forgetfulness. The Dao of Forgetfulness has always been a single lineage, accepting only one disciple. Therefore, it has no sect. The reason for not accepting disciples is to avoid too many entanglements that would hinder ascension..."
The Linglong Sect Master spoke eloquently, but her eyes were fixed on Linghu Lan, as if afraid that she would use trickery.
Linghu Lan listened with great interest, occasionally exclaiming, "So that's how it is!"
He finished speaking.
Linghu Lan waved her hand.
The Linglong Jade Pagoda teleported to the location of the Linglong Sect Master without collecting a single spirit stone.
The Linglong Sect Master took the items and led his disciples away from Yongyi Immortal Tower at breakneck speed, rushing back to his sect as if afraid of being intercepted and killed by the Demon Alliance.
But in fact, he was overthinking it.
He returned to his sect safely without encountering any trouble along the way. Even after returning, he still found it hard to believe that he had come back just like that.
The various immortal sects obtained information through their undercover agents that Sect Master Linglong had safely left Yongyi Immortal City.
The entire auction.
