The blessings from the Fairy Race are undoubtedly a powerful racial talent, those various strange blessings can directly enhance the power of a cultivator.
The songs of the rfolk Race have a similar effect, and the won of the rfolk Race are all beautiful. If one could rge with a pure rfolk woman, they might even gain so unique secret technique.
The Soul Race has no blessings or songs, but they can perform Soul Possession!
The bodies of this peculiar race are very strange, seemingly ethereal yet solid, like ghosts, so they are called the Soul Race.
Both n and won of the Soul Race possess a unique ability to perform the Soul Possession Technique. Cultivators subjected to this technique can enhance their strength.
Lu Ye once read about the Soul Race in the records of Xiyuan Pavilion of the Dwarf Race. He had entertained thoughts about it, because in the Nine Provinces, there existed a group of pioneers who had lost their bodies but still lived on.
The Nine Provinces have now advanced to a large domain, yet those pioneers who contributed greatly remained trapped in Xianyuan City, unable to escape or grow for life.
Their sacrifices shouldn't be forgotten. Nowadays, the Nine Provinces isn't what it used to be, and they deserve better treatnt.
The state of these pioneers is very similar to the Soul Race described in the Xiyuan Pavilion records, so much so that they could be considered an alternate Soul Race.
Lu Ye once thought that if he ever encountered the Soul Race, he might try to engage with them and learn how they cultivate and grow stronger.
Unfortunately, he never encountered the Soul Race until later when he realized that they are very rare, and due to their innate racial talent, they are coveted by cultivators of all major races, thus rarely appearing before outsiders.
Unexpectedly, a mber of the Soul Race appeared in this auction!
Lu Ye imdiately realized that he could forego bidding on other items, but he absolutely had to acquire this Soul Race mber. Missing this opportunity would make it much harder to et them in the future.
So as soon as Yooi Xiuzhai finished speaking, he bid without hesitation!
At the sa ti, in Room A-6, a young man looked at the Soul Race mber with bright eyes and said excitedly, "The information was indeed correct; there is a Soul Race mber in this auction." He turned to a middle-aged man beside him, "Second Uncle, we must secure this Soul Race mber. If we can forge that cover armor with her soul, the power will significantly increase, and even if we encounter Moon Jade, I will be able to escape."
The middle-aged man nodded slightly and was about to place a bid.
At that mont, Yooi Xiuzhai on the stage announced, "Fellow Daoist in Room D-9 bids five million spirit jade!"
Many cultivators in the audience envied, thinking that the person in Room D-9 must be wealthy. They had already auctioned several items with a total value exceeding ten million, and now started again with five million, showing a determination to win. They wondered which major force they belonged to.
In Room A-6, the young man said angrily, "It's that guy again."
He had wanted the Sky-Splitting Arrow earlier, but it was snatched away, and now they were trying to steal the Soul Race mber from him, which was really infuriating. He looked at the middle-aged man: "Second Uncle, this ti we must not be outdone!"
They hadn't contended for the Sky-Splitting Arrow before because they were waiting for this Soul Race mber, and the price of the Sky-Splitting Arrow was indeed too high. This ti they absolutely could not give up.
The middle-aged man remained silent and quietly called out his bid.
On stage, Yooi Xiuzhai imdiately turned to this side and said, "Room A-6 bids five million and ten thousand!"
Soon several other parties placed bids, with Lu Ye consistently following, and within monts, the price exceeded eight million.
A few monts later, the price surpassed ten million, at which point there were not many bidders left. Including Lu Ye and Room A-6, only one other Room B-7 continued to bid.
When the price approached twenty million, Room B-7 beca silent, apparently feeling that the price was too high or beyond their capacity to bear.
Even for the top major forces, mobilizing tens of millions of spirit jade at once is sowhat of a pressure. It doesn't an that their assets only consist of so much spirit jade; the larger the family, the greater the expenses. The spirit jade that can be mobilized for an auction is ultimately just a small portion.
In this regard, Lu Ye undoubtedly had an advantage. Being alone, he didn't need to consider anything else.
The young man in Room A-6 started to sweat as he realized he had underestimated the capital of the cultivator in Room D-9. Twenty million spirit jade already exceeded their expectations, and continuing to compete was unwise. Yet this was a great opportunity, and missing it would be a pity.
He couldn't help but suggest, "Second Uncle, how about raising the bid by a significant amount to make them back down?"
The middle-aged man placed each bid only one million higher, appearing unhurried, which made the young man feel uncomfortable.
The middle-aged man shook his head: "You don't understand; raising the bid this way pressures the opponent. No matter how much they bid, we only go one million higher. This shows that we are determined to win the Soul Race mber!"
The young man nodded in understanding, "Second Uncle, you truly are wise!"
In the auction hall, the participating cultivators this ti felt their eyes opened wide because it was rare to see two factions fiercely competing with spirit jade here.
Honestly, not only were they surprised, but even Yooi Xiuzhai also felt unexpected.
Because in the All Phenona rchants Guild's own estimation, this Soul Race item might go for at most twenty million spirit jade at most, after all, no matter how valuable she was, there was a limit. But now, the situation was that twenty million was not the end, and it was already heading towards thirty million.
After a while, sure enough, the price broke the thirty million mark, and now it wasn't just the young man's forehead sweating, even the middle-aged man who had been unhurried started to show a serious expression.
It's really hard to understand what force this could be, biting the price so tightly, even at thirty million, they still didn't give up.
He was raising his price by ten thousand each ti, but the other side was even fiercer, raising by a hundred thousand directly, showing more montum, and every bid was quick, without any hesitation.
He pondered slightly, circulated his mana, and spoke: "Fellow Daoist, this Soul Race is of great use to my Wufang Island. I wonder if you could let it go, if you are willing..."
Before he finished speaking, Yooi Xiuzhai, who had been standing lazily on the high platform, suddenly looked over coldly: "If you dare say anything unrelated to bidding again, get out!"
In Room A-6, the middle-aged man's face turned green then white, although no one saw the situation on his side, he was after all a Moon Jade, being reprimanded so unceremoniously by Yooi Xiuzhai naturally left him with no place to hide his face.
However, he also knew it was himself who broke the rules. After all, this was an auction; there was no such thing as negotiating like this. It's just that he was indeed near his limit, and now it's obviously too late to draw spirit jade from Wufang Island.
The Soul Race's price finally settled at thirty-two million; Room A-6 stopped bidding.
In Room D-9, Lu Ye twitched an eye corner.
Just now, he was determined not to participate in any bidding no matter how many good things were at the auction. Unexpectedly, this ti he made a big move.
He checked his spirit jade, after deducting what would be settled later, he only had eight million left.
However, if he could find a way to solve the predecessors' issues from this Soul Race and free them from Xianyuan City's constraints, no matter how much spirit jade was used, it would be worth it.
Luckily, there were still so spirit crystals, which if converted into spirit jade, should be about ten million, enough to get that Phoenix Sky Blue Crystal. According to the information Lu Ye gathered earlier, although this Phoenix Sky Blue Crystal is precious, it would at most a few million spirit jade, definitely not exceeding ten million.
The auction continued, and after a mont, the All Phenona rchants Guild people brought the cage over.
Along with it ca a jade tablet, and from that person's explanation, Lu Ye finally understood the purpose of the jade tablet. The Soul Race was not only locked in a cage but also had a special restriction planted on her, the jade tablet was sothing that could control that restriction.
The All Phenona rchants Guild people were thoughtful, knowing that since the Soul Race was captured and brought to auction, she harbored resentnt and wouldn't easily obey others, so they planted a restriction in advance to facilitate the cultivators who won the bid to control her.
Lu Ye directly opened the cage, and under the observation of Insight Spirit Runes, saw the Soul Race walked out of the cage, then stood at a corner, silent, without any intention to escape.
She was evidently not foolish, knowing it was impossible to escape from such a place, so she did not make any futile attempts!
Thinking for a mont, Lu Ye spoke: "I harbor no ill intentions towards you, there are so things I'd like you to help with, I still have one more item to bid on, once the auction concludes, I will take you away!"
No one knew if the Soul Race believed him, but anyway, Lu Ye seed unconcerned, yet was actually on guard, knowing how hard it was to detect the Soul Race's movents, if she were to suddenly attack him here, without precaution, he might not evade it.
A mont later, the Phoenix Sky Blue Crystal that Lu Ye had been waiting for finally appeared. From the outside, it looked like a piece of crystal the size of a fist, seemingly without anything special, yet it was one of the most sought-after treasures for combat cultivators in the Constellation Late Stage.
The starting bid was eight hundred thousand, and Lu Ye imdiately began making offers.
In Room A-6, upon hearing Yooi Xiuzhai announce the bid from Room D-9, the middle-aged man imdiately raised his head and without any hesitation bid once.
Just now, he was scolded by Yooi Xiuzhai, but since Yooi Xiuzhai's cultivation was higher, age was older, and status more esteed, he had no way to hold a grudge or seek revenge, thus he blad everything on Lu Ye in Room D-9.
Previously, he was already robbed by Lu Ye of both the Sky-Splitting Arrow and the Soul Race. Now seeing Lu Ye was interested in the Phoenix Sky Blue Crystal, he naturally wanted to increase the price to vent his anger.
The cultivators in the auction hall witnessed another bizarre scene.
Room A-6 and Room D-9 once again started a fierce battle of spirit jade!
Originally worth only a few million spirit jade at most, the price of the Phoenix Sky Blue Crystal was pushed to nearly twenty million in this clash between the two.
However, unlike the previous two results, when Room A-6 shouted out a price of twenty million, there was no further sound from Room D-9.
Thus, people knew that in this confrontation, Room A-6 had won!
