Chapter 142: Chapter 102: Spirit Pill Acquired! Bloody Battle!_2

“The bidding starts at ten thousand Spirit Stones.”

As soon as the words were spoken, a group of people immediately began to bid.

“Eleven thousand Spirit Stones.”

“Twelve thousand Spirit Stones.”

…

“Twenty-five thousand Spirit Stones.”

For a time, everyone in the venue was bidding, clearly all aiming for this item.

After all, Medicine Pills that could heal wounds had always been in high demand–only the living could chase the Path of Immortality.

Lu Li’s expression was indifferent as he also bid, “Twenty-six thousand Spirit Stones.”

“Twenty-eight thousand Spirit Stones.”

Right after Lu Li spoke, a man wearing a tiger head mask immediately bid, obviously determined to win it.

Lu Li raised an eyebrow and, just as he was about to make another bid, a particularly cold voice came through.

“Thirty-two thousand Spirit Stones.”

The bidder was the woman in black standing next to Lu Li.

“Thirty-eight thousand Spirit Stones.”

The man with the tiger head mask bid again.

“Fifty thousand Spirit Stones.”

The woman’s words were light as a breath of orchids.

…

The two of them continued to bid against each other, and the price kept soaring.

Everyone at the venue stopped and quietly watched the two bidding, their eyes flashing with a cold light.

Seeing this, Lu Li frowned as well. This price was already very high, reaching its limit.

It wasn’t that he didn’t have enough Spirit Stones–he brought over a hundred thousand for this auction, more than enough to buy it. However, he couldn’t be a fool and overpay.

After scanning the crowd, he didn’t speak another bid, the corners of his mouth curling into a smile.

Obviously, everyone there had set their sights on the two bidders; no matter who won, the real winner was the one who could safely take the item away.

While he was lost in thought, the woman in black softly spoke again.

“Sixty-three thousand Spirit Stones.”

Upon hearing this, the entire venue went silent, and the man with the tiger head mask paused, not bidding any further.

The price clearly exceeded expectations.

Lu Li watched the woman in silence, surprised.

Although she was a late Foundation Establishment stage cultivator, with so many Foundation Establishment Cultivators present, it wouldn’t be easy for her to leave safely. There would likely be another big fight soon.

“Is there any other fellow Cultivator who wishes to bid? If not, then congratulations to this Cultivator.”

After a moment, the elderly man on stage saw no one else speaking, so with a smile, he promptly declared the woman the winner.

Upon seeing this, the man with the tiger head mask let a cold gleam flicker in his eyes.

The expressions on the surrounding Cultivators were also somewhat strange, creating an extremely eerie atmosphere on the scene.

As the beautiful Cultivator on stage delivered the Spirit Pill to the woman’s side,

Yin Qian directly took out the Spirit Stones and received the Spirit Pill, feeling quite pleased.

As a disciple of Liu Luoxin, the Supreme Elder of the Flowers Sect, she had been traveling outside seeking opportunities for years. Hearing about the auction of a third-grade Spirit Pill here, she had hurried over to secure it.

As for the surrounding Foundation Establishment Cultivators, she was well prepared; with her tunneling technique, escaping swiftly wouldn’t be difficult.

She thought to herself.

“Fellow Cultivators, this auction is now satisfactorily concluded.”

At this time, the elderly man on stage spoke and then walked towards the back, quickly disappearing from everyone’s sight.

Upon seeing this, a group of Cultivators’ eyes shone with a cold light.

If it weren’t for the strong backing of the auction house and several peak Foundation Establishment Cultivators lurking around to maintain order, many would have already resorted to violence.

A crowd of people gradually walked towards the exit.

Lu Li was also mingling among them, unremarkable, following not far from the woman as they headed outside.

Before long, everyone left the cave and walked towards the outer island.

Upon leaving the island, Yin Qian immediately mounted her tunneling light, swift as thunder, dashing ahead. Within a few breaths, she vanished from sight.

“Chase!”

A group of Cultivators mounted their tunneling lights and flew forward, the sound of breaking through the air echoing around.

The moment the woman made her escape, Lu Li also activated his Divine Skills and turned into a bundle of blue tunneling light, following quickly, dangling behind her.

He was quite curious about how she was so confident she could shake off everyone.

The woman’s tunneling light was extremely fast, even quicker than those behind her.

If nothing unexpected happened, she could indeed escape the crowd, but Lu Li felt that things were not that simple.

After the group had tunneled for about a hundred miles or so,

Suddenly, a sharp cry from the woman came from ahead: “Audacious crook!”

Her voice was filled with rage, echoing throughout the nearby sea area.

Yin Qian glared at the red-robed man who had suddenly appeared in front, her teeth clenched in fury.

If it hadn’t been for him appearing out of nowhere in front of her, she would have already shaken off everyone and fled.

“How can your auction house act like this without fearing the scorn of others?”

She was no fool. With a bit of thought, she understood that someone must have tampered with something; otherwise, it wouldn’t be such a coincidence.

The man in the red robe smiled coldly: “Fellow Daoist, you must not talk nonsense. Hand over the Medicine Pill, and you may leave; otherwise, death!”

As soon as he finished speaking, his late Foundation Establishment stage presence burst forth, stirring up layers of waves.

“You think you’re enough?”

Yin Qian’s face was cold as she took out a golden small sword. When she stimulated her Mana to its fullest, immense Sword Qi slashed through the sky like a falling star, fiercely chopping down at the red-robed man.

Even the surrounding waves were split apart, the aura impressively powerful.

She wanted to kill the man quickly and then leave the area; she had put all her strength into this blow.

The man in the red robe was equally unyielding. He brought out a red Flying Knife Artifact, its blade aura weaving in and out of the void, rapidly confronting the incoming Flying Sword.

“Boom…”

The massive collision resonated across the sky as wild energies splattered around, stirring up thousands of massive waves.

The red Flying Knife was forced back several meters, remaining suspended in the void, exuding wave after wave of murderous aura.

The Flying Sword, having met this obstacle, lost its momentum. In this strike, Yin Qian only held a slight advantage.

Lu Li silently stood far off on the sea surface, watching the two engaging in combat but chose not to attack the woman.
