#238 - Fishing Auction, City Lord Mingfeng

He had seen it in ancient books collected from the Youzhou Dynasty a long time ago.

The Innate Sword Embryo is a special innate treasure. To a certain extent, it can already be called an Innate Spiritual Treasure. However, it is extremely difficult for this kind of sword embryo to take shape. It needs a long time and a special environment to have a chance to be conceived. Moreover, this kind of sword embryo has extremely strong plasticity and is naturally close to the Great Dao. If it is refined into a magic weapon, it will not only be extremely powerful, but also greatly help the user to understand the Great Dao.

Most importantly, this kind of sword embryo has innate spirituality, and can even be said to be a special life form that can grow on its own.

This kind of innate treasure is simply immeasurable in value, because its special growth determines its future growth direction depending on how the person who obtains it uses it. This kind of thing also needs a long time to nurture, often thousands, tens of thousands, or even hundreds of millions of years.

This kind of innate treasure is most studied by the human race, and its appearance in the demon realm is indeed a bit of a surprise and delight for the black-robed doppelganger. It would be a bit of a waste to let these crude guys use it.

Because of their special nature, innate treasures can emit a kind of spiritual rhyme that shields the secrets of heaven, just like the stone in front of them. Even a great cultivator of the human race would find it difficult to see anything special in it.

Although it is difficult to see from the outside, the special spiritual rhyme emanating from it indicates that it is not simple. If it were in the hands of the human race, the price would probably not be a mere ten million spirit stones, but would definitely be several times or even more, after all, the human race prefers to gamble.

"What? Is it possible that no one wants such a treasure?" Chi Tang frowned slightly when she saw that everyone had not responded for a long time, and said persuasively: "Everyone can feel the spiritual rhyme emanating from this stone. How can ordinary treasures emit such a special rhythm?"

Everyone was a little tempted by what she said.

Soon, someone below made a bid: "Fifteen million spirit stones!"

"Twenty million spirit stones!"

"Twenty-two million spirit stones!"

… …

Of course, the black-robed doppelganger would not let this treasure fall into the hands of others, and directly increased the price: "Fifty million spirit stones!"

He was not afraid of attracting attention, he was determined to get this thing.

As soon as this price came out, the audience was silent, and everyone turned their heads to look, with surprised and uncertain expressions.

Could it be that this guy saw the mystery in it?

Or is he purely gambling?

Inside a certain box on the high platform, a middle-aged man in black with a gloomy expression suddenly narrowed his eyes, shooting out two points of cold light. After thinking for a while, he also entered a price: "Fifty-five million spirit stones!"

Everyone was surprised again and turned their heads to look.

The black-robed doppelganger continued to bid without hesitation: "Sixty million spirit stones!"

The cultivators continued to turn their heads.

The corners of the black-clothed middle-aged man's mouth slowly curled up: "Seventy million spirit stones!"

The black-robed doppelganger's heart moved slightly, revealing an interested expression, but his hand did not stop: "Eighty million spirit stones!"

Hiss… …

Everyone present took a collective breath of cold air, revealing shocked expressions.

A stone was actually auctioned for a high price of eighty million spirit stones?!

This black robe is crazy!

The middle-aged man in black slowly put down his hand and stopped bidding, but the smile on the corner of his mouth widened again, and his eyes flickered uncertainly.

Chi Tang did not expect that this stone would be auctioned for such a high price, and she was immediately overjoyed. The snake tail behind her was rhythmically beating the spirit jade floor: "Okay, this senior has offered a price of eighty million spirit stones, does any other Taoist friend want to continue to follow?"

Everyone rolled their eyes.

Chi Tang took the spirit stones with a smile and came up to hand them over in person.

Such a big customer deserves to be treated like this.

Throwing the storage bag containing eighty million spirit stones over, the black-robed doppelganger took the source stone and tossed it into the storage ring, with a smile flashing in his eyes.

Originally, he only came to rescue the Moon Fox clan, but he didn't expect such a surprise.

After counting the spirit stones and looking at the mysterious black-robed man in front of her, Chi Tang was about to speak when her ears suddenly twitched slightly. She nodded imperceptibly, and then smiled and said: "Senior, you came from another city, right? It's the first time you've come and you're so generous. There are not many Venerables who have reached the Rongxu realm in the city. Our City Lord wants to invite you over for a drink, I wonder… …"

The black-robed doppelganger said indifferently: "Not interested."

With that, he waved his hand and rolled up the two fox clan girls on the soft couch, and directly got up and left the box.

Obtaining this Innate Sword Embryo was already an unexpected surprise. He was not interested in the following auction, and it was purely a waste of time to be here.

As for whether his actions would attract attention, or make the City Lord angry, it was not within his consideration.

Listening to the departing back of the black-robed doppelganger, Chi Tang narrowed her beautiful eyes slightly, pursed her red lips, and transmitted a few voices in a certain direction.

Soon, the box where the black-robed doppelganger had bid opened, and a middle-aged man in black strode out, and then turned into a black stream of light and followed the black-robed doppelganger.

"It's City Lord!"

"I didn't expect that the City Lord would also come this time. Could it be that there are still good treasures behind?"

"Isn't this box the one that bid against that Venerable before… …And this stone was originally brought by the City Lord, what does this mean?"

"Isn't this obvious? The City Lord personally went down to be a shill to raise the bidding price!"

"Damn, this is too insidious!"

Many people in the field recognized him. The middle-aged man in black just now was the City Lord of this city, Ming Feng!

At this moment, the black-robed doppelganger had already left Ming Feng City, and was speeding forward on a flying sword, planning to find a place to settle down first, and inquire about the specific situation of the Moon Fox clan of those two girls.

Suddenly, a stream of light chased from behind at a high speed and directly stopped him in mid-air.

"Taoist friend, please stay!"

Ming Feng dispersed the black light protecting his body and revealed his true face.

"It's City Lord Ming Feng!"

The two Moon Fox clan girls showed extremely terrified expressions in their eyes.

When they were first sent to the auction house, they had seen Ming Feng and deeply knew how terrible and cruel this guy was, and he was also a Venerable in the middle stage of Rongxu!

The black-robed doppelganger had already noticed the other party's approach. The reason why he didn't return to the previous inn was to lure him out and see what the other party wanted to do.

"Who are you, why did you stop this seat?" the black-robed doppelganger said indifferently.

Ming Feng said with a gloomy expression and his hands behind his back: "This Venerable is the City Lord of this Ming Feng City. Taoist friend just auctioned off that source stone, but do you know what treasure is inside?"

The black-robed doppelganger raised his eyebrows slightly and said coldly: "So what if I know, so what if I don't know?"

When Ming Feng heard the tone in the other party's mouth, he immediately showed a smile: "As long as Taoist friend is willing to tell this Venerable the mystery inside, I am willing to spend 100 million spirit stones to buy it, how about it? With one transaction, Taoist friend will earn 20 million spirit stones, this is not a small amount!"
