Lord of Bones

Chapter 669 Lingbao Clues
Suddenly, deafening bidding noises broke out in the auction hall.

Ten thousand Earth Yuan Stones are cheaper than ordinary top-grade Earth Treasures.

What's more, it is the legendary Netherworld Sword, which will naturally attract the scramble of powerful people.

The atmosphere in the auction hall reached a climax.

As the price continues to rise, the tense and exciting atmosphere becomes more and more intense.

After a fierce bidding, the Netherworld Sword, which exuded a chilling aura, was successfully won by an old man with a gaunt face and wearing a gray robe in a VIP room at a sky-high price of 120,000 Earth Yuan Stones.

After the successful auction of the Netherworld Sword, the atmosphere in the auction hall was completely stirred.

Mo Juan was obviously very experienced in this kind of auction scene. With a wave of her hands, the maids presented the high-quality items to the auction table.

Among these items are precious elixirs, rare materials, and powerful scrolls of Yuanshu, each of which is priceless.

However, although these items were extremely extraordinary, their appearance did not cause as much sensation as the Netherworld Sword.

Just as the atmosphere was gradually becoming darker, Mo Juan once again took out a defensive treasure called Dragon Scale Armor.

This dragon scale armor is woven from hundreds of dragon scales that sparkle with golden light.

The scales are also engraved with mysterious elements, which shimmer with a faint luster.

This dragon scale armor is made of the scales of a demon dragon at the peak of the sixth level of perfection. Its defensive power is strong enough to make even the strong ones in the Huawen realm look at it with awe.

As long as the Yuan power of the Yuan person can fully activate this armor, he will be safe even when facing the attack of a strong man who is half a step into the Life Spirit Realm.

Mo Juan's introduction echoed in the auction hall, and the Yuanzhe's eyes were once again drawn to the auction table.

After fierce bidding, this dragon scale armor was finally sold for 80,000 Earth Yuan Stones.

When the price was settled, Li Yuan felt a surge of regret.

If he had taken the silver armor from Zhu Xianyi, he might have been able to fetch a good price.

At this time, Xue Ya frowned slightly and muttered softly: "It seems that there is nothing suitable for us in this auction. We spent a high price to get a VIP seat in vain."

She sighed slightly, and a hint of dissatisfaction flashed across her delicate face.

Xia Youran, who was sitting next to her, was neither impatient nor impatient. She smiled and comforted her, "Wait a little longer. Good things will always come later."

Li Yuan also nodded and glanced around: "Except for a few who took action, most of the powerful people among the VIPs sat quietly, obviously waiting for the real good stuff."

At this moment, Mo Juan walked up to the auction table, exuding charming charm in every gesture, and said with a smile:
"The next lot is what our two chambers of commerce have applied for from the General Association for your trip to the Xuanyin Thunder Region."

Then, hundreds of exquisite jade boxes were presented and placed on her left and right sides.

The jade box was emitting a faint precious glow.

Mo Juan waved her slender hand, and the jade boxes were opened one by one.

There was only a Yuanwen scroll inside, with densely packed Yuanwen engraved on it.

"There are a total of 200 defensive elemental pattern scrolls here, each of which is engraved with about 300 elemental patterns, which can block the full force attack of a late-stage Huawen realm expert." Mo Juan was full of confidence. "Scrolls with this number of elemental patterns should be very rare in the Wen River Basin. I believe everyone will be interested."

The Yuanwen scroll looks ordinary but contains endless energy. It lies quietly in the jade box, shining brightly.

They can build powerful elemental arrays in an instant.

But all Yuan practitioners know that the more Yuan patterns there are, the more severe the test of the Yuan practitioner's own strength will be.

The Yuanwen Scroll is different from Yuanbao and is a disposable consumable.

Every bloom means the completion of the mission.

The array masters at the auction house were discussing the matter, knowing full well the value and risks of these scrolls.

One of the middle-aged array masters, with a resolute face and a look of fascination with the elemental array, reminded in a deep voice: "The elemental pattern scrolls are indeed powerful, but it is not easy to drive them.

"Especially for a scroll with this many elemental patterns, without sufficient strength, it would be difficult to control, and you might even lose your life."

Mo Juan stood on the auction table, and upon hearing the reminder from the formation master, she smiled faintly and said softly, "Your Excellency is absolutely right.

“But I still want to remind everyone that entering the Xuanyin Thunder Region is extremely dangerous, even for a strong person in the Huawen Realm.

“These scrolls may become everyone’s strongest support.

“I believe that with everyone’s strength, activating this number of elemental scrolls is not a difficult task.

"I have said this much, it is up to you whether to take the photo or not.

"The starting price for each scroll is 20,000 Earth Element Stones."

The atmosphere in the auction hall suddenly became tense. Everyone started bidding and the competition was extremely fierce.

Auctioneers changed one after another, and each drop of the hammer was accompanied by cheers or sighs.

The auction of the Yuanwen scrolls lasted for five or six hours until all the scrolls were sold out.

Li Yuan spent all his family fortune and bought a few Yuanwen scrolls.

Although the price was much higher than the market price, he knew that in the Wen River Basin, such a price was already fair.

After all, it was a life-saving device, so he didn't feel sorry for it.

I just hope that I can enter the Huawen realm as soon as possible, and then I will be able to engrave the scroll of three hundred Yuanwen by myself.

After all the Yuanwen scrolls are sold, the auction will continue.

However, after that, there was no such a hot scene again. After all, everyone had limited capital.

As the auction drew to a close, the atmosphere in the entire auction hall became increasingly tense and expectant.

Mo Juan stood on the stage again, her eyes sweeping unnoticeably across the row of VIP rooms above.

Then, she slowly reached out and took something out of the ring.

In an instant, the entire auction hall seemed to be shrouded by an invisible force.

Li Yuan could sense that the strong men from major forces including Yinmingwei, Jianxinmen, Yanyuezong, Houtu Palace, Youlan Pavilion, etc. had gleams of light in their eyes.

A scroll about a foot long appeared in Mo Juan's hand.

The scroll is of simple style. It is neither a Yuanshu scroll nor a Yuanwen scroll, but more like an ancient map.

As the scroll was taken out, a thunderous sound suddenly rang out, as if it came from the sky above, shocking everyone.

The scroll was shimmering with light, dazzling and bright, as if countless stars were twinkling in it.

An indescribable feeling of oppression surged out like a tide and instantly filled the entire auction hall.

Under this pressure, everyone's faces changed, and they couldn't help but feel fear in their hearts.

"What is that?" the Yuanzhe exclaimed, with shock and curiosity that were difficult to conceal in his voice.

"What a terrifying pressure!" Another Yuanzhe couldn't help but exclaimed.

"So powerful?" Xue Ya also looked at the scroll curiously, with curiosity and excitement flashing in her eyes.

She had never seen such a powerful and coercive object, which made her look forward to the truth that was about to be revealed. The entire auction hall seemed to be frozen at this moment, and all the Yuan people focused their eyes on the mysterious scroll.

The light and pressure emanating from the scroll pushed the auction to a climax.

"This kind of Yuanli pressure..." Xia Youran opened her red lips slightly, her beautiful eyes narrowed slightly, as if trying to peek into the mystery through the invisible fluctuations, "I'm afraid it was left behind by a powerful person in the Life Spirit Realm."

"A strong person in the Life Spirit Realm!"

Li Yuan, Guo Jingxuan, Xue Ya and Zou Hao were all shocked when they heard her words.

Their eyes were fixed on the scroll, trying to get a glimpse of the style of a powerful person in the Life Spirit Realm.

In the auction hall, the air seemed to freeze, with only Mo Juan's pleasant voice echoing:
“Everyone, this scroll was accidentally discovered by a powerful Yuan master who went deep into the core area of ​​Xuanyin Thunder Region thousands of years ago when the power of thunder in Xuanyin Thunder Region was weakening.

“The scroll passed around for several times before finally falling into the hands of the Chamber of Commerce.

"After careful appraisal by treasure appraisers from our two chambers of commerce, this scroll is most likely drawn by the founder of the Yin Lei Palace, Emperor Yin Lei himself."

"Emperor Yin Lei!"

After hearing these four words, the atmosphere in the auction hall instantly became heated, and countless pairs of eyes revealed greed.

The former Yin Lei Palace was feared by all.

However, when talking about the most influential existence of Yin Lei Palace in the Wen River Basin, everyone would mention the ancestor of Yin Lei Palace, Yin Lei Emperor.

The name of Emperor Yin Lei symbolizes invincibility and glory.

Back then, he stood at the top of the Wen River Basin, and his cultivation and reputation reached unprecedented heights.

Now, when this mysterious map scroll appeared in front of the crowd, everyone understood that this was not just an ordinary map, but it might very well hide something left behind by Emperor Yin Lei.

Maybe it is precious cultivation resources, maybe it is powerful ingots, or maybe it is some mysterious inheritance.

No matter what it is, it is enough to drive every elementalist present crazy.

Even if this scroll was not left by Emperor Yin Lei himself, but by an ordinary Life Spirit Realm expert, its value is still immeasurable.

Mo Juan gently stroked the scroll that glowed with ancient luster and said slowly:

“I understand that you may have doubts as to why the Chamber of Commerce would be willing to auction off such a precious item.

"In fact, this map scroll does not contain countless treasures. It only records one extremely important piece of information."

Mo Juan's voice suddenly became mysterious, causing all the Yuan people present to feel nervous.

"What information?" A strong man couldn't suppress his curiosity and asked.

Mo Juan smiled charmingly, her eyes seemed to be able to seduce people's souls, and she spoke slowly and calmly:

“Everyone should know that the reason why Emperor Yin Lei could become the overlord of a region, in addition to his unfathomable cultivation, is because of two crucial and powerful ingots.

“The first one is the famous Lightning Yin Thunder Blade, which has the magical power to turn ordinary Xuanbao into the power of Lingbao.

“However, due to some reasons, this treasure has not been able to exert its power in the hands of the powerful men of the Yin Lei Palace.

"This also means that it is not valued by the Huawen Realm ancestors of various forces."

Having said this, Mo Juan paused slightly and glanced across the audience.

“And the second spiritual treasure is the Feather Flame Fan.

“It was originally a sacred treasure, with immense power.

“But during a thunderstorm in the Yin Lei Palace, the Yu Yan Fan was unfortunately damaged and reduced to an ordinary spiritual treasure.

“Although its power has been greatly reduced, it is still a spiritual treasure that cannot be underestimated.

"And this map scroll records the whereabouts of the Feather Flame Fan."

Mo Juan's voice was deep and powerful, as if it had some kind of magic, making the entire auction hall seem to be shrouded by an invisible force.

The people present were unable to resist the temptation and their heartbeats accelerated involuntarily.

All the Yuanists stared at the scroll in her hand, as if trying to find traces of the Yuyan Fan in it. The auction hall suddenly erupted in excitement.

Countless gazes met, all revealing greed and desire.

After a moment, a strong man stood up and looked at Mo Juan sharply, questioning her like breaking the ice:

"It's just a map with information that is hard to tell whether it's true or false, but they dare to use it as the finale of the auction. Isn't it a bit rash for the Chamber of Commerce to do this?
"Could it be that you want us, the buyers who have come from afar, to pay a high price for a map that may be worthless?"

Mo Juan did not show any panic when she heard this. Instead, she chuckled with a hint of cunning in her voice:
“What the senior said is very true, but our two major chambers of commerce will not squander their reputation at will.

“We decided to sell this map in a special way.”

She waved her hand lightly, and a flash of light appeared on the auction table, and a huge Yuan formation emerged.

With a single throw, she threw the map scroll into it.

"We will use this Yuan array to bless and copy the information on the map scroll into ten thousand jade slips." Mo Juan explained, "Each jade slip will be sold at the price of twenty Earth Yuan Stones.

"I must state in advance that although the copied map can show the information on the map scroll, its clarity cannot be compared with the original."

After he finished speaking, a burst of discussion broke out in the auction hall.

The one with Yuan seemed determined to get the jade slip.

There were also some Yuanzhe who frowned and looked hesitant.

VIP room.

Xue Ya snorted coldly and whispered to Zou Hao beside her: "This woman is really shrewd to the extreme, she actually came up with such a method.

"She can fetch such a high price for a mere figment of her imagination. I really admire her."

Zou Hao folded his arms across his chest, his eyes fell on the auction table, and frowned, "Should we buy a few copies?"

Xia Youran frowned slightly, and after thinking for a moment, he said: "If we have the opportunity to obtain the Yuyan Fan, then this investment will not be a loss.

"After all, a true spiritual treasure is not easy to buy even if you have enough Yuanshi."

Guo Jingxuan said softly, "This rubbing method is too ingenious.

“Even if the information in the map is false, we won’t know it.

"Perhaps, Mo Juan wants to use the gimmick of the Feather Flame Fan to trick everyone into buying these jade slips."

"It's not impossible." Xia Youran nodded slightly.

Her beautiful eyes were as clear as autumn water as she stared at the faintly glowing map scroll in Mo Juan's hand and continued:
“Twenty Earth Elemental Stones are easy for those of us who don’t have a big force as our backer to come up with.

"For a chance to obtain a spiritual treasure, I'm afraid everyone would be tempted to take a gamble.

“If you want to truly decipher the secrets of the map, you need to have enough jade slips.

"It can be predicted that once these jade slips fall into the hands of various forces, the battle in the Xuanyin Thunder Territory will break out ahead of schedule, and bloody storms are inevitable."
