Chapter 126: Chapter 126: The Last Auction Item

However…

This was actually the limit Lin Jing could offer.

Any more, and he truly wouldn’t be able to come up with it.

He had deduced that the woman’s emotions were unstable, which is why he had dared to take such a gamble, betting that she wouldn’t dare to continue bidding.

After Lin Jing finished speaking, the venue fell silent as well, curious to see whether the woman would keep up.

Even Steward Cheng on the auction stage felt the same way.

“Bidder number 256, offering 5,300 Medium Grade Spirit Stones, is there anyone else who wishes to follow?”

However, after waiting for a long time, there was still no further bidding.

Steward Cheng knew as well that the woman in the Li Family’s box must not dare to raise the price further, so he began the countdown. “5,300 Medium Grade Spirit Stones, going once.” “5,300 Medium Grade Spirit Stones, going twice.” “5,300 Medium Grade Spirit Stones, going three times…”

“Bang”

The auction hammer fell.

“Sold!

“Congratulations to bidder number 256, on acquiring the Ling Yin Imperial Sword Technique.”

It was not until this moment that Lin Jing finally relaxed, having secured the Ling Yin Imperial Sword Technique.

Inside the venue, many people looked towards Lin Jing, their eyes filled with envy.

Of course, most envied his wealth.

Even the middle-aged man sitting next to Lin Jing showed a smile and said,

“Congratulations, fellow Daoist.”

Lin Jing nodded in response and looked back at the stage again.

Then, the maid took the stage once more, carrying the Ling Yin Imperial Sword Technique away.

Meanwhile, the next item up for auction was brought up by another maid.

And the rest of the people in the venue turned their attention back to the auction stage and its offerings.

At this time, Lin Jing stood up, walked through the aisle, and headed towards the back of the auction hall.

Passing through the corridor, he quickly arrived at the same room as before.

Elder Yu was still there.

Just like last time, Lin Jing handed over the Spirit Stones and received the Ling Yin Imperial Sword Technique.

He then bade farewell and left.

This time, he did not leave the venue but went back inside.

The auction for the Lifespan Extension Pill, which was the highlight of the auction event, was up next. He wanted to see it at all costs, and incidentally, get a sense of the power of these families.

After all, it was a struggle between at least two families, perhaps even more.

Upon returning to the venue, only a few people noticed him; the others were still actively participating in the bidding.

In this way, the afternoon came quickly, and Lin Jing realized that those who entered the venue were indeed rich.

For the treasures that were of interest to them, there was fierce competition.

Thus, one after another, the items were auctioned off. Some of them made Lin Jing’s heart race, especially those third-order Spirit Plants used in Elixir Medicine, each fetching an astronomical price.

Unfortunately, Lin Jing had no more Spirit Stones left and could only watch with longinz.

Four hours passed, and the auction was nearing its end.

Steward Cheng’s voice was growing hoarse from continuous shouting.

“Next, please welcome the following auction item.”

As Steward Cheng’s voice finished, a maid holding an exceptionally exquisite jade box stepped onto the stage and displayed the contents to everyone in the hall.

Lin Jing saw a blood-red fruit inside the box. The fruit was not very big, but it was extremely red, as if it had been soaked in blood.

“Blood Red Vermilion Fruit…”

At that moment, someone excitedly called out the name of the fruit.

This was the Blood Red Vermilion Fruit.
