Chapter 749: The Soul Controlling Killing Talisman!
Xi Wuqing’s gaze instantly locked onto Su Yi, it was this young man who had just made the bid.
With a price of seventeen thousand one hundred, Xi Wuqing stared at Su Yi, his gaze flickering incessantly. How could this young man command such a valuation!
From Xi Wuqing’s gaze, Su Yi could tell the doubts in Xi Wuqing’s heart. He smiled slightly, and in a hushed voice, he said, "I heard that the Black Card from Lingbao Pavilion allows you to buy things on credit. As long as you pay it all back within a year, it’s fine. I just don’t know if it’s possible to borrow so much."
Xi Wuqing’s gaze was moved, a ripple of emotions stirred within him. He didn’t show any trace of it, but he couldn’t completely control the tremor in his heart at that moment.
How could Xi Wuqing not know that Su Yi’s current offer was to help him obtain the Star Cloud Ganoderma?
On the auction stage, the old man’s gaze couldn’t help but tremble secretly. He had already received the news that the private room contained a mysterious VIP with a black card.
"Eighteen thousand three-star Yuan Stones!"
In a corner booth, the clear voice continued to make bids.
"Eighteen thousand, one hundred three-star Yuan Stones!" Su Yi furrowed his brow quietly, and increased his bid by another one hundred. After all, this price could be raised by a hundred each time without any problem.
"Nineteen thousand three-star yuan stones!"
"19,100 three-star Yuan Stones!"
"Twenty thousand three-star Yuan Stones!"
"Twenty thousand and one hundred three-star Yuan Stones!"
Before the audience could even recover, the price had already reached twenty thousand and one hundred.
"Poof…"
"Every time she added one hundred, that mischief maker would show up!"
In the mysteriously tense auction atmosphere, someone couldn’t help but laugh.
Regardless of how much the prices in the corner booths went up, the person in the central booth only bid an extra one hundred, clearly intending to increase it by one hundred. This definitely had a mischievous and targeted element.
Heaven knows, whenever Su Yi placed a bid, it felt like his heart was bleeding.
Although it was said to be on credit, it was still uncertain if the Lingbao Pavilion could allow such a large amount of credit. And even if they could, having to repay such a terrifying number within a year made Su Yi’s heart ache. Every time he increased the bid by one hundred, it was because he was in great pain.
"The price of twenty thousand and one hundred made the voices in the corner compartment finally come to a stop. For some unknown reason, there were no more bids."
"Twenty thousand and one hundred three-star Yuan Stones at once!", Little Johnny exclaimed.
"Twenty thousand and one hundred three-star Yuan Stones, twice!"
"Twenty thousand and one hundred three-star Yuan Stones, sold three times, deal!"
On the auction stage, the old man didn’t waste any more time. In fact, he swiftly made a final decision, slamming the hammer down. Then, he looked towards the box where Su Yi was seated and gave him a warm smile.
When the hammer fell, Su Yi’s gaze couldn’t help but tremble, with a gleam of excitement flashing in his eyes. He looked at Su Yi, nodding earnestly and saying, "Thank you. I will find a way to repay this debt!"
"We are brothers, we share both blessings and challenges, and we settle our debts together."
Su Yi chuckled. Although there may have been some ulterior motives when they first became sworn siblings, after spending so much time together, Su Yi had long regarded Xi Wuqing as his own. Xi Wuqing had become his elder brother in this sworn brotherhood.
"Is the Star Cloud Ganoderma ours now? Can I have a taste when the time comes?"
Su Xiaoshuai, full of excitement, his mouth watering and his eyes shining brightly, couldn’t contain his delight.
"Off you go!" Su Yi gently patted Su Xiaoshuai on the head.
"Whoosh!"
As the final hammer fell, Star Cloud Ganoderma, a rare and mysterious herb, caused a ripple of excitement in the auction house as numerous subtle energies surged in.
"It looks like trouble is brewing."
Although those subtle energies were very discreet, Su Yi, with his keen soul power, detected them. He focused his mind and furrowed his brows ever so slightly.
Su Yi, being a clever young man, couldn’t help but understand the meaning behind these subtle energies. He knew that carrying the jade pendant would likely attract unwanted attention. He couldn’t shake off the feeling that someone might follow him as soon as he stepped foot outside Central Region city.
For treasures like Star Cloud Ganoderma, there might be many people interested in obtaining it.
"It seems like there are quite a few people who have come for the Star Cloud Ganoderma!"
Xi Wuqing also felt it. He whispered softly, "At this moment, there are even more people lurking in the shadows compared to those who just bid. It proves that many of them have come here for the Star Cloud Ganoderma. However, they don’t seem interested in bidding at all. Their intentions are clear."
"It’s that boy from the Overlord Sect!"
Inside the Tianxuan Sect private room, Liu Xiaohu’s expression turned sour. He never expected that not only did that boy manage to enter the VIP room, but he could also offer such a high price.
This made Liu Xiaohu, who had a fleeting sense of superiority, be mercilessly crushed once again, fueling his growing resentment.
"That boy seems to be quite mysterious!"
Jian Wannian spoke up, his eyes sparkling, his expression cold. He had missed the chance to obtain the Star Cloud Ganoderma, but there was simply no way for him to compete for it.
On the auction stage, a disciple of the Lingbao Pavilion had already taken the Stardust Lingzhi away. After the auction concludes, the Lingbao Pavilion will naturally arrange the transaction.
Once again, an item up for auction was placed on the stage, a piece of defensive armor, reaching the initial stage of a Spirit Weapon.
The defensive armor was scarce yet practical, and its price was not low. After a fierce competition, it was ultimately acquired by a top-level private room.
But this price, after the recent battle over the Star Cloud Ganoderma, no longer caused the same level of astonishment among the people.
Next, several remarkable treasures were auctioned off at high prices, reigniting the fervor throughout the venue.
"Next, we have the second-to-last item up for auction in this event. It is a powerful Soul Controlling Killing Talisman that belongs to the dual-typed Yuan Emperor Realm. The starting price is one hundred and twenty thousand two-star Yuan Stones, and each bid must be at least one thousand two-star Yuan Stones."
On the auction stage, the elderly man introduced the items on the auction platform. There was a palm-sized object, radiating with brilliant light. It was adorned with flickering symbols, emitting a dangerous aura that made even a single glance instill a sense of unease.
"I can’t believe it, this thing actually exists."
Su Yi’s eyes widened with astonishment. In the past few days, he had immersed himself in the Yutian Palace, studying various materials related to Soul Tamers. This was one of the techniques used by Soul Tamers.
Soul Controlling Killing Talisman, stirring residual spirits, binding them with a sealing restriction. Crafting and refining the Soul Controlling Killing Talisman, once used by its wielder, it could unleash a terrifying power.
The power of the Soul Controlling Killing Talisman lies in the gathered strength of the Soul Tamer.
The stronger the Soul Tamer, the more powerful the Soul Controlling Killing Talisman they condense becomes. This also depends on various factors such as the Soul Tamer’s spiritual strength and other related factors.
The Soul Controlling Killing Talisman is an offensive technique. Su Yi also learned that there is another technique used by Soul Tamers called Spirit Shield Talisman, which works similarly to the Soul Controlling Killing Talisman.
However, the Soul Controlling Killing Talisman is designed for offensive purposes.
And the Spirit Shield Talisman was used for defense.
And the Spirit Shield Talisman was much easier to make. It only had defensive powers and couldn’t be used for attacks.
Generally speaking, these Soul Controlling Killing Talismans and Spirit Shield Talismans don’t have much effect on truly powerful individuals.
However, for the younger generations of the prestigious sects and clans, the Soul Controlling Killing Talisman and Spirit Shield Talisman held tremendous power.
Therefore, these Soul Controlling Killing Talismans and Spirit Shield Talismans were often provided by those prestigious sects and clans to their disciples for their travels, in case of any unforeseen circumstances.
