732 Treat Him With Sincerity
The three of them were terrified, but they were also very happy. They had come here just to repay a favor, but instead, they had obtained such a terrifying killing formation.
Seeing that it had worked, Lin Mo heaved a sigh of relief.
With enough materials, the three of them began to set up the formation. Lin Mo also took out three Level 9 Heaven-grade magic weapons.
He had originally planned to auction them, but after some thought, he decided to keep them as his trump cards.
It would take seven days to set up the formation, with Qilin, Xia You, and Lin Mo as the formation eyes, holding the formation flags.
The three Heaven-grade magic weapons acted as the core of the formation, forming the three Celestial Sword Formations that enveloped the entire Forest City.
The moment the formation was activated, Lin Mo and the other two instantly possessed the combat strength of a quasi-Saint.
The feeling of being able to destroy the world with just a gesture of his hand intoxicated him.
“If the three Celestial Sword Formations make me feel like this, what kind of feeling will it be when I set up the Celestial Eradication Sword Formation in the future…” He was looking forward to it.
At the same time, a piece of news had already spread in the outside world. Countless living beings swarmed over to Lin City.
And this was only to gather information.
Lin City suddenly became lively and crowded with people.
“Fellow Daoist, you’re here too. Is the news true?”
“I don’t know. It’s the Wind Spirit Sect’s Great Emperor’s ancient scripture. Lin Mo is actually willing to auction it off. It’s ridiculous.”
“I don’t believe it’s the Great Emperor’s ancient scripture. I believe it’s the Quasi-Immortal Martial Arts Technique. Lin Mo went to Sky Dragon City a while ago.”
“At that time, he gained a Quasi-Immortal Level Martial Arts Technique at an auction. It was said that he wanted to gather the resources to break through to the King level.”
There were different opinions, making Lin City unprecedentedly lively.
Meanwhile, some people were hatching plans in the dark, discussing how to capture Lin Mo and the others in one fell swoop.
“Since Lin Mo dares to do this, he should have some confidence…”
There was a group of people on the top floor of a restaurant who were discussing and exchanging information.
“The Qilin hadn’t appeared for a long time. Recently, however, it has frequently been walking around Lin City.”
“In addition, the Heaven’s Will Body often appears and has already discovered us.”
The crowd chimed in, and the news they received made their hearts sink.
This was a huge force. Neither Xiao Yun nor Tang Ru had the confidence to break in.
Perhaps, this was one of the reasons why Lin Mo dared to auction it off.
“What we know so far is that the Quasi-Immortal Level Martial Arts Technique and many other treasures are real.”
Someone had personally gone to the Molin Chamber of Commerce to ask about it.
Fifteen days later, the Molin Chamber of Commerce would be holding an auction, and a Quasi-Immortal Level Martial Arts would be one of the items offered.
Other than that, there were also treasures like the Heaven-Connecting God-Attracting Lotus and a Level 8 Heaven-grade magic weapon.
Even the Quasi-Immortal Level treasures that were known as rare Immortal treasures would appear.
This made countless people drool, wanting to join in and get their desired treasure.
Looking at the undercurrents in Lin City, Lin Mo looked down at the city from the top of the central palace.
With his sharp soul power, not a single person could escape his eyes.
However, he was disappointed to find that none of the people who had come were high-leveled fighters.
They were basically the generals, second battle servants, and so on of their respective forces.
“Those who came are all subordinates. There’s not a single big fish…” Lin Mo shook his head. Xiao Yun and the others were not present.
“There was one a while ago, but that person seemed to have sensed something and retreated.”
From behind, Xia You led the Qilin over. During this period of time, the two of them had gotten along quite well.
Facing this cheeky and cute little girl, Xia You also became very fond of her, and often took her to stroll around Lin City.
“Do you want to buy that piece of scripture?” Lin Mo asked.
Mu Yuzhu was still in seclusion, studying the scriptures, but she still wasn’t able to memorize them.
It was the work of a great emperor from the ancient era, so it was hard to imagine.
“I’m not buying anymore. I’ll just read the ancient books of the past once so as not to interfere with my own judgment of the future.”
Xia You shook her head. She was now a little interested in Lin Mo’s Quasi-Immortal Level Martial Arts Technique.
According to what they had agreed on, the opportunities would be divided equally. Lin Mo had already agreed that after the auction, he would give her and Mu Yuzhu an even more powerful Quasi-Immortal Level Martial Arts Technique.
However, who would complain about having too many martial arts of this level?
As the saying went, “Having more skills doesn’t weigh down one’s body.” She had some savings on her, so she had wanted to grab a book and increase her means.
“Compared to this, I’m more interested in knowing what you’ll do when you leave this place after offending so many people.”
Xia You was not the only one who wanted to know the answer to this question. Countless living beings in the world wanted to know as well.
As long as the ancient battlefield was closed, all living beings from the outside world would be teleported out and returned to the square.
At that time, there would definitely be an Emperor-to-be who would capture Lin Mo and the Qilin by force.
This was the tragedy of rogue cultivators. Without a backer, they were destined to face a tragedy after offending an omnipotent expert.
“We’ll see. If I can’t escape, I’ll be trapped for a lifetime…”
Lin Mo chuckled. With the system space, he did not have to worry about his safety. The only problem was how to leave.
However, it was still too early to think about this. The most important thing now was to let the auction proceed smoothly.
This way, he would be able to obtain more benefits and resources to break through to a higher realm.
“Sister, you don’t have to worry about Brother. We’re going to find my mother. There’ll definitely be a way to leave,” said the Qilin as she chewed on a demigod fruit.
“Your mother!”
Xia You was startled as she looked at the Qilin. Wasn’t her mother the Divine Beast Qilin from the ancient era?
Was she still alive after so many years?
“The Divine Beast Qilin has already passed away, but there are still remnants of her remains in the Daoist Rite Temple,” Lin Mo explained as he glared at the Qilin.
It had only been a few days, yet this little girl has already started to pour her heart out…
“Hey!”
The Qilin stuck out its little tongue and hid behind Xia You.
Hearing this, Xia You sighed. She stretched out her hand, took out an item, and passed it to Lin Mo. “This can save your life at a critical moment …”
It was a silver talisman that was shining with a dazzling light.
The most important thing was that it was surrounded by immortal qi, so one could imagine the value of this thing.
“Here, take this. You can use it as capital for the auction.”
Lin Mo was surprised and kept it in the system space. The results of the appraisal shocked him.
[ Quasi-Immortal Realm-Breaking Talisman. It can tear open space with a just thought and cross a hundred states. It can be used three times. Its value is sky-high. ]
“You can’t bite off more than you can chew, I’ll go with the stronger martial arts you mentioned,” she chuckled and her eyes were filled with sincerity.
In the past, when she had worked with Lin Mo, she had a motive.
Just like before, she had agreed to control one of the formation cores because she had hoped that the auction would be successful and that she would be able to benefit from it in the end.
From what she was saying, she truly hoped that Lin Mo would be able to escape.
As long as he could escape, with the auspicious beast by his side, he believed that he would be able to overcome the danger no matter what.
“Is this considered as taking care of a fellow villager?” Lin Mo saw the sincerity in Xia You’s eyes and teased her.
“I just don’t want you to die and have one less opponent in the future.”
She rolled her eyes at Lin Mo and left with the Qilin. There was an appraisal meeting at a shop today, and she was going to take Qilin there to try her luck.
By borrowing the auspicious qi, he might be able to find some treasures there.
After watching the two of them leave, Lin Mo continued to look down at Lin City as he muttered to himself.
“The wind is rising and the clouds are surging. Let this place become lively…”
