Chapter 196: Searching for the Right One
Lin Fan came here in search of a target.
A demon.
A clan of the demon.
He wanted to prove, the more evil they are, the richer they must be. So, as long as he could find a piece of fat meat, this visit would be profitable.
Many immortals were passing by, but most of them were not so satisfying.
There were a lot of poor-looking immortals, some of them even looked poorer than him. He was already in disguise as a poor one. What good can be expected from those people who looked poorer than him?
Lin Fan looked at them one by one. The system allowed him to see through these immortals' real identities. They weren't pretending to be poor; they were truly poor.
No way.
Too poor.
Crazy, even such poor ones dared to come here and fish.
Lin Fan brushed past those immortals one by one, but he still couldn't meet any satisfactory ones.
A few immortals were not bad, but they didn't meet his standards, they were somehow decent people. How could he do such a thing to decent people?
.....
Just then.
The scene in front of him was crowded with a lot of people.
Lin Fan's eyes lighted up. A rich man would appear in a crowded place, Perhaps his target was among them. Without saying a word, he squeezed into the crowd.
"Make a way, please, make a way."
There were too many people around.
It took a lot of effort to finally squeeze in.
"You forced me to sell it." an angry voice was heard.
Lin Fan looked at the man with an angry face; his face was red as he glared at the man in front of him.
The crowds were whispering.
Lin Fan listened quietly, and he could roughly figuring out what exactly was happening. It turned out that this man had bought a fully wrapped piece of treasure clay to try his luck, but when he opened it, he didn't expect it to be Eighth-Grade Spirit Grass.
The special thing about the eighth-grade is that this spirit grass alone was priced at no less than two million spirit stones.
And that was still the lowest price. The Eighth-Grade Spirit Grass hadn't been checked by an alchemist yet; if the Eighth-Grade Spirit Grass were a rare one, then the price would definitely skyrocket.
It's very expensive, indeed.
Maybe even spirit stones wouldn't be able to buy it.
What good luck.
The man's luck was too good, but there was also bad luck behind every good luck. That man couldn't keep such a treasure without a certain amount of strength.
"Force you to sell it? What do you think was wrong with me offering a million spirit stones for this spirit grass of yours?" The man who spoke looked arrogant. There was a hint of a demon on his face, especially his eyes, which seemed to be able to see through people's hearts with those overflowing demon's aura.
The white-clothed man who had the spirit grass was furious, "One million spirit stones? You clearly don't know what this is. This spirit grass hasn't been identified yet. Even if it is just an ordinary Eighth-Grade Spirit Grass, the price is still two million spirit stones."
When he opened the clay and found this spirit grass, his heart was about to burst with excitement. Unfortunately, someone was staring at him. Although he didn't know who the man was, but looking at his appearance and the people following him around, he could tell that this man was not an ordinary man.
Not to mention, he was only a Golden Stage cultivator. If this weren't the Heavenly Treasure Pavilion's territory, he wouldn't dare to talk back.
The corners of the demon's mouth turned up in disdain and said, "Giving you a million spirit stones is my attempt to save your life, but you don't appreciate it. You don't even give me a face, so there's no need to say more ."
"The Blood Sea Demon Sect never failed to get what it wants."
"So, you better take care of yourself."
The demon man lightly waved his hand as if he was leaving a mark on the white-clothed man. It was the trick that the Blood Sea Demon Sect was most skilled at.
Leaving a mark.
Waiting for the white-clothed man to leave the Heavenly Treasure Pavilion's range, then block him and kill him. The murderous business was so simple and casual.
Right after the demon revealed his identity, there was a sudden scream from the crowd.
"If he is the son of the demon from the Blood Sea Demon Sect, this kid must be in danger. The Blood Sea Demon Sect is one of the most dangerous out of all the other demon sect; if you don't give them what they want, they will hunt you down and kill you."
"Looking at the style of this demon sect, it can only be said that if this kid dares to step out of the Heavenly Treasure Pavilion's range, he will definitely be killed. "
"Shh, keep your voice down, this matter has nothing to do with us, so don't get in trouble."
When the white-clothed man heard those words, he was so shocked, and his face gradually became white, he didn't expect the other man's origin was so great.
A demon son of the demon sect, which was the Blood Sea Demon Sect.
Damn.
How could he encounter such an existence? He was trying to be tough just now to show that he was brave and wasn't afraid of that man as if he was saying 'you are not qualified to scare me.'
But now, he understood. He wasn't trying to scare him at all. He was truly powerful.
The white-clothed man panicked and said, "I'll sell it to you for one and a half million spirit stones."
"Oh, a million and a half spirit stones? Forget it. You'd better keep it for yourself. My Blood Sea Demon Sect will spend nothing to get that Eighth-Grade Spirit Grass of yours."
The demon smiled playfully, while the white-clothed man looked panic as he could feel the terror of the Blood Sea Demon Sect, and it made the demon quite happy.
Things like this happened often.
With such a great treasure, you couldn't get out of the Heavenly Treasure Pavilion' range unless you had a great origin, a powerful sect behind you as a backing, and you, yourself, were the member of that sect. When you had all of that, then you could leave safely.
Or you could spend a large amount of spirit stones on hiring the Heavenly Treasure Pavilion expert to escort you. It was just that the escorts were expensive and not necessarily safe.
That's why more veterans were getting treasures secretly, quietly evaluating them, and definitely would never reveal it public.
'Don't be like this frosty young man who directly opened Eighth-Grade Spirit Grass in front of the public.'
It would be fine if you didn't get any treasure. But if you did, then there was no point in getting it.
After the white-clothed man learned the demon's identity, his face turned pale, and he was stuttering.
"One million, I'll sell it to you."
The demon said, "Earlier, I was being generous and offered you one million spirit stones. but now it won't do, so keep it well, or you can sell it for a good price in the Heavenly Treasure Pavilion."
"The Heavenly Treasure Pavilion has a rule that you can only stay for fifteen days. After that, they will kick you out."
Although the demon had a smile on his face when he said this. But that smile was like a sign of death.
He was afraid of the Heavenly Treasure Pavilion's rule.
Whoever tried to make a mess here would be punished by the Heavenly Treasure Pavilion.
Even if the demon was a demon of the Blood Sea Demon Sect, he wouldn't dare to break the rules.
Then, the demon walked away, and when he reached a short distance, he looked back at the white-clothed man. His glance was nearly caused the white-clothed man to lose his soul, and the hand he used to hold the spirit grass shivered.
He didn't want to die.
He wanted to be a successful cultivator and become an immortal, but he didn't expect that cultivating immortality could be so cruel. It was so dangerous that it could kill him.
As the demon left, the crowd around shook their heads and sighed.
"It's a pity that you can't keep the treasure you got, what a great regret in life."
"He definitely couldn't escape after being targeted by the demon of the Blood Sea Demon Sect. Luckily he is inside the Heavenly Treasure Pavilion's range; if it were elsewhere, he would become corpse already."
The white-clothed man was already terrified, and now that he heard these words from the crowd, he was even more frightened. He could even feel the spirit grass became hot in his hand.
Even if he threw away the spirit grass, the demon still wouldn't let him go.
How was that good?
What the hell was this?
Lin Fan witnessed the entire scene.
What a domineering demon.
The Blood Sea Demon Sect.
'Remember the name of this demon sect; if you have a chance in the future, maybe you can have a good time with this demon sect.'
As for the white-clothed man, Lin Fan didn't want to step in and comfort him because he had a great use for Lin Fan.
.....
Just then.
Lin Fan chased after the demon as he left. The demon was his main target, he wouldn't let him go.
As for now, nothing else needed to be done.
Lin Fan had found his target.
He had to smash these guys upside down and not even letting go of their underwear.
...….
Not long after.
He saw the demon son entered the Heavenly Treasure Pavilion auction hall. So, Lin Fan quickly paid some spirit stones and went in.
The inside was already full of people. All of them were powerful masters. Without strength, there wouldn't be spirit stones, and without spirit stones, they wouldn't be able to enter and participate in the auctions.
Lin Fan wasn't interested in these auctions.
For him, Treasures that needed to be paid were not a real treasure.
It's because it has no soul or a sense of belonging.
The place where the demon was didn't seem like a place where anyone could enter.
He could only stay not far away as his glowing eyes locked on to the demon.
An immortal on the stage spoke up, "Next up for auction is a set of Top-Grade Dao Artefact, Sword Formation, made by a master alchemist three hundred years ago."
"This sword contains eighteen hundred and eighty-eight golden age formations."
"The starting bid is five hundred thousand spirit stones."
It was Lin Fan's first time attending such a scene. Of course, he had engaged an auction at the Greatest Martial Sect, and it was pretty cool, watching people constantly offering prices, it felt like he was about to fly.
The starting price of five hundred thousand wasn't very high for this set of Sword Formation Top-Grade Dao Artefact.
In the past, Ye Zhentian's Middle-Grade Dao Artifact that could hurt the soul was only worth two hundred thousand spirit stones at most.
So, the final price of this Sword Formation Top-Grade Dao Artifact should be around one million.
And the main reason was that the formation was a bit small.
The pinnacle of the Top-Grade Dao Artifact formation should be at two thousand nine hundred and ninety-ninth formation. One more formation and it could be a complete dao artifact. That's why the price was so high.
But, such a Top-Grade Dao Artifact like that hardly ever appeared.
And even when it did appear, it wouldn't last long.
Because the value was difficult to be measured with spirit stones, in the end, this set of Sword Formation Top-Grade Dao Artifact was sold to an unknown big man. He paid nine hundred and fifty thousand spirit stone for it.
The next auctions were some elixirs, more dao artifacts, materials, low grade, high-grade mystic arts, and many more.
None of them were important for Lin Fan.
He only had the demon of the Blood Sea Demon Sect in his eyes.
Of course.
Sometimes when Lin Fan was bored, he also wondered how many spirit stones would he get out of his Sacred Beast Robe? It must be worth hundreds of millions of spirit stones.
After all, it was a Top-Grade Dao Artefact with ten thousand six hundred and eighty-eight formations.
It sounded terrifying.
Very expensive indeed.
If you had this set of Top-Grade Dao Artifacts, you wouldn't be able to leave this place alive.
