589 Being Followed
No wonder he had never heard of a supreme grade spirit stone ever since he came here. It turned out that this was the condition for its creation…
This item was very valuable. The moment it appeared, it attracted people to fight for it. They were all disciples from large families from all over the world.
If they could bring back a top-grade spirit stone embryo, it would be a great achievement for them.
“Young master, are you not willing to bid?” The young girl poured Lin Mo a cup of wine and asked tentatively.
This was a great achievement, and he would definitely be rewarded when he returned. Why did Lin Mo not have any intention of bidding?
“There’s no need for that. This kind of achievement is nothing compared to the battle on Cloud Mist Island.”
Lin Mo sat on the sofa and drank as he watched them compete.
This piqued the young girl’s curiosity, and the elders had asked her to test Lin Mo’s background.
However, she didn’t know how to test him. However, from the confidence revealed between his brows, he should be a genius on the prodigy roll…
In the end, this embryo was taken by a genius. When he walked out of the private room, everyone was shocked.
This was actually a genius in the top hundred of the prodigy roll.
“Even such a person has come to the Cloud Mist Island. I wonder how deep he can go.”
People were whispering to each other, while Lin Mo had a carefree expression on his face. He was drinking wine and eating fruits on the table.
As the auction continued, treasures were presented one after another.
Some of them even surprised Lin Mo. There were treasures that were half a step to heaven rank.
However, it also caused a lot of people to bid for it, and the final price reached more than 15 million.
“There are indeed many treasures. Are there any heaven-grade ones?” Lin Mo asked. The finale had not appeared yet.
If the final item was a sky rank spirit herb, then should he fight for it?
“Young master, you’re being too serious. Although there are treasures everywhere on Cloud Mist Island, heaven-grade treasures are still very rare.”
The girl shook her head. She had revealed that the final treasure would be a tier 9 earth grade manual and a set of martial arts.
Many of the people present had rushed over to the auction after hearing the news.
Hearing this, Lin Mo shook his head. Although he was tempted by a tier 9 earth grade skill and martial arts, he would not pay such a high price for it.
“Then it seems like there’s nothing else that can move my heart.”
Lin Mo drank the wine in his cup. At this time, the auction had also reached its climax.
As the second last auction item was won, there was finally some movement in the private room at the front.
They pulled down the curtains, ready to bid at any time.
“Young master, the spirit herbs you asked for are ready. The elders are in seclusion, so it’s not convenient for them to entertain you.”
The door of the private room was pushed open, and another young girl walked in.
She respectfully handed a ring to Lin Mo. As for what the elders had gone to do, there was no need to say.
Lin Mo received it with a smile. After counting it, he confirmed that there were no mistakes.
He handed over 1.5 million upper grade spiritual stones to the two girls and got up to leave.
As for the finale auction, he had no interest in participating.
Besides, he didn’t have that many spiritual stones, unless he sold the spiritual herbs he had just obtained…
“There’s no need to send me off, we’ll meet again.”
Lin Mo waved his hand to stop the two girls. He walked out of the auction house, put on his bamboo hat and straw Cape.
At this moment, he looked like a loner, walking in the world without any purpose.
However, under the bamboo hat, Lin Mo’s eyes were slightly cold.
From the moment he left the auction house, he felt like he was being watched.
Someone was following him, and an even more powerful soul power was locking onto him to prevent him from disappearing into the crowd.
“It shouldn’t be someone from the auction house.” Lin Mo thought to himself.
The Gongsun family didn’t need to do this, and he had to show them that he had a high status.
Moreover, even if he had no background, the Gongsun family had no reason to touch him.
There was no need to ruin his own reputation for a small figure…
“So, it’s those people?”
Lin Mo suddenly recalled that when they were fighting for the Kun Peng Bone, there was a powerful soul power that wanted to probe him.
If it was them, then everything would make sense. Because of that bone, he was being targeted.
“This is really troublesome…”
Lin Mo had no choice but to walk through the crowd. He did not know when he had suddenly turned and walked into an empty alley.
His figure disappeared, as if he had merged into space.
After a short while, an ordinary-looking man followed them and looked around in confusion.
“Have I lost him…” The man muttered.
The next moment, he turned around and saw a sharp blade approaching his neck.
He made a prompt decision and retreated quickly, pulling away at the first moment.
However, he had underestimated Lin Mo’s speed. The space-severing divine sword slashed out from the void and cut through Lin Mo’s throat.
This person’s soul still wanted to escape, but how could Lin Mo let him do so?
Searing flames filled the air, and after taking him down, his soul was directly burned to ashes.
After that, he used the space-severing divine sword to split open the space and disappeared.
The flames that were left behind burned everything, including the man’s body and blood.
Furthermore, this was Lin Mo’s dao fire, so it would not leave any traces.
Only someone with extraordinary strength who could sever karma would be able to find clues and trace Lin Mo.
“The person we sent out is dead…”
At this moment, a few middle-aged men walked out of the Gongsun family’s auction house. One of them frowned.
They had once sent their men to keep an eye on Lin Mo, but they had died not long after…
“Can you confirm that person’s identity?” One of them asked.
“No, the auction house didn’t say anything and kept it a secret. It seems like this person’s identity is not simple…
“To be able to see through the kun peng bone, he is naturally not a simple person. He must be here to enter yunwu Island.”
“The souls of the people he killed have my remnant soul in them. If I meet them, I will be able to sense it. It will depend on luck…”
A middle-aged man shook his head. Lin Mo had been very decisive and had not left any traces behind.
Such a ruthless method made it impossible for them to follow him.
Meanwhile, Lin Mo, who had no idea that he was being watched, had already arrived at the back gate of Cloud Mist City.
There was only one way out, and that was to go deep into the Cloud Mist Island.
“They say that this place is full of opportunities, and they hope that I can pick enough spirit herbs.”
Lin Mo muttered to himself as he continued walking forward.
There were many other travelers, and most of them were in groups of three to five. It was rare to see a lone wolf like Lin Mo.
Along the way, Lin Mo saw a familiar face. It was the genius who had managed to get the best-grade spirit stone embryo at the auction.
This person’s aura was not ordinary. It was like a lurking dragon that could easily burst out with a powerful force.
“As expected of an existence in the top hundred of The Prodigy roll…” Lin Mo exclaimed in his heart. There were 3000 States in the Northern Land. A mere cloud state had many hidden dragons and crouching tigers…
He just did not know how cruel the competition for the hidden Dragon rank would be.
“Haha, Yu Chen, I heard that you managed to get a top-grade spirit stone embryo. You can’t control that treasure, so leave it to me.”
A blue-robed young man caught up from behind and caught up with Lin Mo in the blink of an eye.
