“3,000 mid-grade spiritual herbs,” the young man from the Assembly of Immortals in the Tianzi No.2 room glanced at Qiu Yunping and said.
“3,500,” Qiu Yunping replied with an aggressive gaze.
“4,000.” The young man’s voice was flat as if he did not take Qiu Yunping seriously at all.
Qiu Yunping hardened his heart and shouted, “5,000 herbs.”
“6,000.” The young man didn’t hesitate at all.
“7000,” Qiu Yunping gritted his teeth and shouted.
“8,000.”
All the warriors present looked back at the two rooms. Because the rooms were separated by transparent glass, they could see everything inside clearly.
Most of them knew Qiu Yunping, whose Shadowless Sect was rich and powerful, but it was the first time for them to see the young man from the Assembly of Immortals. They were all guessing his identity. Since he could sit in the Tianzi No. 2 room and be ranked in front of almost all forces, they guessed he must have a high status.
“9,000.” Qiu Yunping stared at the young man and shouted.
Unexpectedly, the young man gave him a contemptuous look and kept silent. Qiu Yunping got angry, knowing that he had been tricked.
“Congratulations for obtaining the Grandleaf Redgold Armor, Mr. Qiu.” Mo Nai didn’t even hammer and spoke directly. Everyone present knew that no one would make a higher bid.
In fact, 9,000 mid-grade spirit herbs were so many that even some small forces didn’t have. Qiu Yunping felt heartbroken when he made the deal. No matter how rich the Shadowless Sect was, it was hard to bear so many.
“Don’t worry. The spiritual herbs are only temporarily stored here. They will come back in the end,” Chu Xun said to him.
Only then did Qiu Yunping calm down.
The second item to be auctioned was an incomplete map.
According to Mo Nai’s introduction, an immortal island appeared in the direction of the East Sea. It was surrounded by Immortal Qi which made it difficult for the beholders to see its true appearance. Someone got the map near the island. After studying it, the people of Xihe Auction House thought that it might be a map leading to the island. The island might have no owner now, so the first one to set foot on it might be the master of it. No one could anticipate what was on it. Wreathed in Immortal Qi, it might have a lot of resources and martial arts secrets that could help people improve their cultivation fast.
The starting price of the map was 800 spiritual herbs. They could be replaced by spiritual elixirs, magical flowers, and spiritual fruits.
People had a desire to hunt, gamble, and take risks. It was said that someone had fallen off a cliff and acquired supreme skills. As a result, a large number of people jumped off of the cliff in order to attain supreme skills. However, they finally got hurt and even lost their life. There were still some people believing that if they were lucky, they might be able to obtain the skills.
It was also said that if they met a dark cave, they must go in and have a look. Maybe an Almighty had stayed there and left some records of skills. Although the probability was very small, some people wanting to improve their cultivation fast would try. Wherever they saw a cave, they would get in and have a look. If there were terrible beasts in the cave, they might die without bodies left, and some of them lucky enough might escape with crippled bodies.
There were always some people who courted death. Moreover, Mo Nai deliberately exaggerated. The price of the map had instantly risen to 2,000 spirit herbs.
Looking at everyone bidding fiercely, Mo Nai was calm and was not in a hurry at all. Ordinary auctioneers shouted vigorously, urging more people to bid, but he didn’t have to. He just focused on people’s greed and exaggerated the items.
“Brother Chu, shall we bid?” Qiu Yunping asked in a low voice.
“Yes,” Chu Xun sent a voice message to him.
At the time, the price of the map had risen sharply to 3,000 spiritual herbs. Qiu Yunping shouted, “5,000 spiritual herbs.”
As a result, everyone present was silent.
They knew Qiu Yunping’s identity. Some showed respect to the Shadowless Sect, and the others were short of money. They stopped bidding and looked at the Tianzi No.2 room.
As expected, the young man of the Assembly of Immortals gave a bid. He looked through the glass at Qiu Yunping and said with provocation in his eyes, “6,000.”
“You did it on purpose.” Qiu Yunping’s face darkened.
The glass here was ordinary and had no sound insulation effect at all. On hearing Qiu Yunping’s words, he looked at Qiu Yunping provocatively and said, “Mr. Qiu, you can bid based on your own ability. If you have enough spiritual herbs, please bid.”
“Damn it, do you think I’m afraid of a hick like you?” Qiu Yunping shouted with a dark expression. “7,000.”
“8,000,” the young man said closely behind.
“9,000.” Qiu Yunping suddenly stood up and looked at the young man. “I don’t believe that I will lose to you in the territory of my Shadowless Sect.”
“10,000,” the young man said with a smile.
The crowd was in an uproar. 10,000 mid-grade spiritual herbs were so many.
“Damn it, why did you bid 10,000 mid-grade spiritual herbs to buy an incomplete map? Are you OK? Not to mention whether this map can help you get to the immortal island, even if you get to it successfully, can there be 10,000 mid-grade spiritual herbs on it?” Qiu Yunping sat down and looked at the young man with disdain. “You are a fucking fool. If you want it, it is yours. I won’t bid it.”
The young man’s face stiffened, and his eyes became gloomy. He immediately understood that Qiu Yunping had tricked him.
The people present were not fools. They sneered secretly. Qiu Yunping was right. They thought that they might not even be able to get the equal number of 10,000 mid-grade spiritual herbs they spent on the map.
“Congratulations for getting the incomplete map, Mr. Lei Han.” Mo Nai had all the information on the people present. The young man in the Tianzi No.2 room was called Lei Han.

Lei Han stood up, shot a vicious glance at Qiu Yunping, and walked outside, preparing to make the deal.
Just as Lei Han took out 10,000 spiritual herbs, Qiu Yunping shouted, “10,100 mid-grade spiritual herbs.”
Everyone was shocked. What did he mean?
Mo Nai was stunned, and then he said with a serious expression, “Mr. Qiu, Mr. Lei Han has already won the bid.”
Qiu Yunping looked at Mo Nai with disdain and said disdainfully, “Old man, is this your first day to be an auctioneer? Don’t you know you should hammer for three times to close a deal? You haven’t hammered yet, so the map is still ownerless. I still have the qualification to bid. You are really fucking good-for-nothing. Should I teach you such a small thing myself?”
Mo Nai’s face suddenly darkened. He felt embarrassed and resentful. However, what Qiu Yunping had said was right. He should hammer three times to close the deal. Without rules, nothing could be accomplished. “When auctioning the Grandleaf Redgold Armor, I didn’t hammer too. Why did you keep silent at that time?”
The others present showed a gloating expression on their faces. They all knew that Xihe Auction House had caught up from behind and threatened the status of the Shadowless Sect. The two sides had long been at odds with each other. Qiu Yunping deliberately embarrassed Xihe Auction House.
“Everybody, what do you think of my words? The Xihe Auction House is too unruly. All the people here are famous experts and masters of various forces in Jianghu. The Xihe Auction House did not take us seriously at all and went too far,” Qiu Yunping said loudly.
Everyone present knew that Qiu Yunping was taking advantage of the situation for his own ends. They just echoed him and smiled, but no one responded. They did not want to get involved in the competition between Shadowless Sect and Xihe Auction House.
Qiu Yunping did not care. He did not expect these people to cater to him and just wanted them to have a not-good impression of Xihe Auction House. He looked at Mo Nai and said, “If no one bids, the map will be mine, right? Hurry up and hammer. Why are you standing still like a fool.”
Mo Nai’s face was gloomy, and the corner of his mouth twitched. He really wanted to hit Qiu Yunping’s head with the auction hammer.
“11,000 mid-grade spiritual herbs,” Lei Han replied grimly.
“What the fuck. Do you think you are qualified to compete with me in wealth?” Qiu Yunping’s face was full of disdain, and he shouted, “12,000.”
“13,000.”
“Well, you win.”
Once again, Qiu Yunping made everyone speechless. He had ridiculed Lei Han and Mo Nai aggressively for long, but in the end, he stopped bidding.
Lei Han was angry, and his eyes showed displeasure.
Mo Nai’s face was gloomy. Qiu Yunping did not want the map but just wanted to disgust them.
Clang! Clang! Clang!
He quickly hammered, fearing that Qiu Yunping would make trouble again.
“Fuck, why did you hammer so fast?” Qiu Yunping squinted. “I am supposed to keep bidding. It sounds like a funeral bell. What bad luck.”
Mo Nai’s and Lei Han’s faces were extremely gloomy. In the end, the incomplete map was Lei Han’s, but he was not happy at all. He couldn’t pretend to be calm even if he wanted to.
The third item was a little special. It was a deer.
Everyone was curious. The deer was just an ordinary one without anything special.
“Everybody, are you curious why I’m auctioning a deer?” Mo Nai restrained the bad feelings Qiu Yunping brought him and spoke with a smile.
“Fuck, you pumpkin, we are not here to play a guessing game.” Qiu Yunping muttered, but many people heard him.
Mo Nai gritted his teeth and pretended not to hear him. He looked at the crowd and said, “Actually, the deer is not the third auction item. The real item is here.”
Mo Nai clapped his hands. Then someone took out a jade plate on which there was an item covered with a black cloth. He unveiled it. In an instant, a red light flowed, dazzling. Everyone looked curiously and saw 12 palm-sized flags on the jade plate.
“What are these used for?” Someone asked curiously.
“Everyone, please take a look.”
Mo Nai raised his hand and shot out 12 small flags. Then they were scattered around the deer. The small flags emitted a bright red light, and the 12 small flags echoed each other from a distance. Suddenly, red ripples swept toward the deer in the middle.
Hiss!
With a hiss, the deer was cloaked by the ripples and disappeared like steam.

Everyone present was shocked. What terrifying power! Nothing remained after the massacre.
“It is a great killing weapon. If it is utilized properly, it can kill enemies with higher cultivation. Everyone, you may bid for it. The reserve price is 2,000 spiritual herbs,” Mo Nai said.
Chu Xun narrowed his eyes slightly. “Mo Nai said it is a great killing weapon, but I think he is a big fool. He doesn’t know much about these small flags.”
These small flags were called Star Flags and real Divine Relics. He didn’t expect that Star Flags existed on the earth, and there were 12 Star Flags. He wondered where they came from.
The power of these 12 Star Flags combined with the Massive Killing Formation of the 12 Stars would be absolutely terrifying. Mo Nai didn’t know about the magic formation at all. As he had shown the flags just now, he didn’t even use one-tenth of the Star Flags’ power.
