Chapter 577: Wild Bidding

“It’s the spirit seed.” Hong Ling was also elated. “Ye Mo, you have to get it. I’ll be able to hide in your Xu Mi Ring and help you create a spirit embryo to revive Ling’er.”

If Ye Mo had a Half Deity Tier Seal in the form of Ling’er, plus Hong Lin helping him, his training journey would be much smoother.

Ye Mo had painstakingly made his way all the way here to the Seal City for the sole purpose of finding a spirit seed. Having found it in the first auction that he’d attended, how could he possibly pass up such a chance?

“I know.” Ye Mo stared at the spirit seed. “But I have to keep my cool – this spirit seed is so rare, its price must be astronomical.”

If he were powerful enough, he would have gone ahead and grabbed the spirit seed for himself. For Ling’er, he was willing to do anything.

“The spirit seed can be used to create a spirit embryo,” Master Fu Qian said. “Those interested in cultivating battle puppets shouldn’t pass up this opportunity. The starting price is set at 10,000 Transcendence Pills.”

Whoosh.

An item like that didn’t require Master Fu Qian’s introduction – most people knew what it was for.

Ye Mo tried to scan his surroundings to see how interested the other bidders were in the spirit seed. It would be ideal if there were as few competitors as possible.

“Battle puppets? I’m a monster-controlling seal artist. I have my own monsters – I have no use for battle puppets.”

“That’s right. Seals are still the more cost-effective option. Some of those divine seals would provide so many benefits.”

“Furthermore, creating a spirit embryo is no easy feat.”

No one even started the bid. Ye Mo could barely control his glee.

But this was to be expected. While the spirit seed was rare, few were actually interested in something like it.

As the excitement in his heart slowly built up, Ye Mo stood up to start the bid.

“12,000 Transcendence Pills.” Just before Ye Mo could even make a sound, an arrogant voice shouted through the auction area.

The man who started the bid was a teenager in a white robe, with the aura of royalty surrounding him. With an extremely charming face, he had a beautiful woman at his side. With everyone’s seat sealed from the outside, no one could see what he looked like.

Upon hearing his bid, Ye Mo frowned. Glancing around, he locked onto his position and increased his bid. “13,000 Transcendence Pills.”

There was no turning back.

“14,000 Transcendence Pills.” The man, who was enjoying being serviced by the woman, almost let out a satisfied moan after upping his bid.

“20,000 Transcendence Pills.” Ye Mo couldn’t be bothered to continue this bidding war. He increased his bid to 20,000 straight away and used some level of authority to pressure his rival, letting him know that it was time to back down. After all, to be able to increase the bid to 20,000 showed extreme wealth.

“30,000 Transcendence Pills.”

Silence.

The whole auction arena was dead silent.

Such a bid was even more outlandish, increasing the price by a whole 10,000. It was the move of a tycoon battle machine.

While 30,000 Transcendence Pills might not be too much for some families, using that amount to purchase a spirit seed of limited function seemed overly lavish.

After the man in the gold robe was done, he pushed the lady aside, using an antagonizing aura to lock onto Ye Mo.

“This guy is a fighter in the Second Tier of the Transcendence Realm.” Ye Mo gritted his teeth – it seemed like he was matched up against the young master of a big family.

“40,000 Transcendence Pills.” Ye Mo upped the bidding price loudly, before saying, “My friend, this spirit seed is extremely important to me, I must ask for your understanding and sympathy.”

“50,000 Transcendence Pills.” The other man completely disregarded Ye Mo’s words and yelled out an even scarier number. It was completely beyond the spirit seed’s actual value.

People turned to Ye Mo – they all wanted to see if he would increase the price even further.

“This is to be expected of the Second Young Master of the Spirit Sky Residence – such boldness.” Elder Fu Qian could tell who the man in gold was based on his voice.

“Looks like that man has to give up. That’s the Second Young Master of the Spirit Sky Residence. He once said that whoever dared to try and take things from him would die.”

The auction burst into life again.

The Spirit Sky Residence was renowned in the Seal City – the Second Young Master’s words were backed up by his family, 100 percent.

“Don’t you all know?” The man in gold smiled slightly. “I’ve recently collected the body of a divine beauty. I’ve been keeping it frozen with the intention of making it into a puppet with the spirit seed. When that happens, that beauty will be all mine.”

He wasn’t going to use her for battle purposes.

He wanted to make use of the corpse of the woman, cultivate her into a battle puppet, turning her into an undead servant for him to enjoy.

“That Second Young Master of the Spirit Sky Residence is sick in the head – doesn’t he know that corrupting a corpse is against heaven’s will?” Hong Lin was infuriated by the man’s words. As a woman herself, while she didn’t have any experience in that area, she was enraged nonetheless.

“5,000 Transcendence Pills, all of them in the Jiping Kaiguang quality.” Ye Mo offered all of his wealth. “They’re all imbued with the Light of the Glorious Sun and contain healing effects. I would like to ask the appraiser to evaluate the value of these.”

“Ye Mo, you have Jiping Kaiguang Transcendence Pills?” Nangong Wushang asked, before adding, “Don’t evaluate anymore. I’ll help you get the spirit seed – Jiping Kaiguang Transcendence Pills are invaluable in today’s market.”

“Uncle Nangong, these have no value in my eyes. I’ll fill you in later.” Ye Mo couldn’t care less. He would do anything to revive Ling’er, to the point where he was about to rush out and take the spirit seed for himself.

“Jiping Kaiguang Transcendence Pills, imbued with the Light of the Glorious Sun?” Master Fu Qian’s eyes widened as he said, “Can you take one out and let me inspect it?”

Ye Mo did just that, taking out a pill and shooting it toward the auction stage.

After a few moments, Master Fu Qian was in shock as he exclaimed, “A Transcendence Pill of such quality is an extreme rarity. One of these is probably equal to the medication effects of ten Transcendence Pills. Furthermore, it’s imbued with the Light of the Glorious Sun – what a marvel of an item. Pills like these cannot be cultivated – they can only be formed by nature.”

A pill of such quality was extremely rare, even for him.

“Then, how much will 5000 of these pills be worth?” Ye Mo asked.

Seeing Master Fu Qian make such an expression for the first time, the man dressed in gold was also somewhat uneasy.

“Based on my evaluation, 5000 of these can be exchanged for 100,000 Transcendence Pills, but I’m willing to buy them from you for 200,000,” Master Fu Qian said.

“Master Fu Qian, I’ll bid all 5000 of my pills to buy that spirit seed. If the Second Young Master would like to compete with me for the sake of toying with some corpse, then I’ll fight him all the way.” Ye Mo smiled slightly as the man’s face turned solemn. Even someone of his caliber couldn’t fork out 200,000 Transcendence Pills.

“You’ve got guts, kid. You know who I am, and you still decided to oppose me.” He stomped on the woman’s body before walking out through the transportation formation.
