"May I trade other items for it?"
Su Mo took the Red Flame Wings and asked the maid who was waiting to collect the stones.
"Of course! We have appraisers to evaluate the price of your items." The maid nodded and said.
"Great!"
Su Mo took out 12 scrolls of his Lv 5 martial art techniques from his storage ring.
The 12 scrolls included the four property cultivation skills he combined into the Grand Chaos Five Elements Skill. Now he only had one martial art technique which was the Lv 6 one he practiced.
"Excuse me for a minute, master. I'm going to the appraiser to evaluate the price." The maid then left the room.
The auction continued, and nothing else appealed to Su Mo again.
Both Hong Qingxuan and Huang Yao had bought something.
Hong Qingxuan had bought a light-purple gauze-made cloth. It was extremely beautiful and also a Lower Lv 5 armor which could easily block any Enlightenment Realm expert's attack.
Huang Yao had bought a crystal jade bracelet, an assistive treasure that kept collecting Spiritual Qi from heaven and earth into the bracelet for a martial artist to absorb Spiritual Qi at a later time.
After 10 minutes had passed, the maid came to Su Mo's room.
"Master, the 12 Lower Lv 5 martial arts techniques were worth 945,000 Medium Spiritual Stones in total, and there are 85,000 Medium Spiritual Stones left."
The maid handed over a storage pouch and said, "85,000 Medium Spiritual Stones, please check, master."
"945,000?" Su Mo frowned slightly. The price of martial arts techniques was normally higher than same-leveled weapons. He expected that the 12 scrolls were worth more than 1,000,000 Medium Spiritual Stones. The Treasure Pavilion was so mean!
The maid nodded and said, "Yes master. The seven cultivation skills were worth 85,000 Medium Spiritual Stones each, and the five martial arts techniques were worth 70,000 Medium Spiritual Stones each.
Su Mo nodded and sighed inwardly. Whatever. He stole these scrolls anyway. They were ill-gotten wealth.
The most important thing was that he had no choice but to trade them for stones.
"Got it. You can leave." Su Mo nodded and took the storage pouch.
The auction continued, and treasures showed up one after another.
Not long later, another thing appealed Su Mo.
"Dark Stars Armor, a Lower Lv 5 internal armor that has been refined with fragments of meteorites from the universe with the bonus of a high defense. Few Enlightenment Realm martial artists can break this armor and not even a normal Lv 2 True Darkness Realm martial artist can break it."
Ming Yu held a dark golden armor and continued, "Dark Stars Armor, the starting price is 80,000 Medium Spiritual Stones, and each raise should be no less than 10,000 Medium Spiritual Stones. Let the bidding begin!"
Although this armor was Lower Lv 5, its price was several times higher than same-leveled weapons and martial arts techniques.
The reason was its difficulty in being made. It could also save one's life, which was the most precious thing for a martial artist.
"100,000 Medium Spiritual Stones!"
"110,000!"
"130,000!"
"150,000!" Su Mo offered.
After several rounds of competition, Su Mo finally bought the Dark Stars Armor for 280,000 Medium Spiritual Stones.
It's not about wealth actually. The price was far beyond the value, hence the others gave up.
Su Mo did not care about the price. As soon as he wanted something, he would go for it by any means necessary.
Su Mo had only 100,000 Medium Spiritual Stones left after paying the 280,000 Medium Spiritual Stones
Afterward, the auction continued into the evening and had sold hundreds of items.
Su Mo had not bidden on anything else because nothing had fascinated him after the armor.
Soon, the auction came to an end.
On the auction platform, Ming Yu had a beaming face. She said loudly and clearly, "Everyone, the auction is about to end, and now it's time for the Grand Finale."
While Ming Yu was talking, a beautiful maid came to the platform with her both hands holding a one-meter-long tray that was covered by a piece of golden silk. What was under the silk?
At this moment, the entire Auction Room had become dead silent. Everybody held their breath as they stared.
Even many True Darkness Realm experts, who had not bidden anything yet, got excited. Before the auction, word came from the Treasure Pavilion had that there would be an arcane treasure this time.
The so-called "arcane treasure" must be this item. Everybody started to guess what it was.
Su Mo was also curious about this. In every auction, the final item must be the most precious one.
Su Mo tried using the spiritual consciousness, yet it was blocked by the golden silk. He then shook his head and took it back.
Ming Yu took the tray, looked around the place, and smiled charmingly.
"Everyone, this is the Grand Finale. Please allow me to keep you in suspense, and introduce its history."
Ming Yu halted for a while and said, "This was fetched by an expert from an ancient ruin in the Skysea Lake area. In other words, this is an antiquity from the Archean times."
"The crafting method has been lost since the post-archean times, so it is extremely precious!"
Everyone present stared blankly.
Even Su Mo was teased to the point of impatience. What was it exactly? Was it really extraordinary?
Ming Yu kept smiling. Upon seeing everyone's curiosity was piqued, she opened her red, sexy lips. "I think you're all wondering about it so I shall speak no more and unveil it now."
She then lifted her slender hand and slowly lifted the golden piece of silk.
The treasure was exposed to everyone.
