**
The endless radiance enveloped the massive auction house, yet even such brilliance could not conceal the burning gazes locked onto the stage.
The rarity of the Everlasting Holy Spirit Fruit clearly far surpassed that of the Heavenly Thunder Jade Marrow from earlier.
Mo Yu's eyes were also fixed on the Everlasting Holy Spirit Fruit. As one of the essential items needed to revive the Wind Emperor, he had to obtain it at all costs.
"130,000 drops of Supreme Spirit Liquid!"
As Mo Yu was lost in thought, a high bid suddenly rang out.
The bidder was a middle-aged man with a cold demeanor. A strong surge of spiritual energy fluctuated around him, making it clear that he possessed remarkable strength.
"135,000!"
However, his bid was quickly outdone.
"138,000!"
The rapid succession of bids shattered the brief silence, sending a wave of excitement through the entire auction house. Those who had been eyeing the Everlasting Holy Spirit Fruit could no longer hold back and began placing bids.
In just a few minutes, the price had already skyrocketed to 150,000 drops of Supreme Spirit Liquid, an amount that left many envious. Such a vast quantity of Supreme Spirit Liquid could accelerate one's cultivation by several times.
At this stage, the number of bidders dwindled rapidly, yet everyone knew that the real heavyweights were just about to make their move.
"160,000."
A lazy yet alluringly seductive voice echoed through the hall, causing nearly everyone to lift their heads and look toward a small pavilion at the front.
The veil there was lifted, revealing an enchanting and mesmerizingly beautiful face.
"It's the Enchantress Fairy of the Celestial Fox Sect."
"She's actually interested in the Everlasting Holy Spirit Fruit? That's not 16,000, it's 160,000 Supreme Spirit Liquid! Where did she get that much?"
"I heard that the Enchantress Fairy recently got close to a powerhouse from the Skylaw Continent. Perhaps she's just bidding on his behalf. After all, with the Celestial Fox Sect's resources, it wouldn't be easy for them to come up with 160,000 Supreme Spirit Liquid."
As the seductive beauty revealed her face, whispers spread through the crowd. Many were clearly familiar with her reputation.
After her bid, the auction house grew noticeably quieter. Even many powerhouses who had initially shown interest hesitated to continue bidding, seemingly unwilling to offend the formidable figure backing her.
Seeing this, Mo Yu's eyes flickered as he made a realization. He then spoke aloud, "170,000."
If his guess was correct, the one behind the Enchantress Fairy was none other than Yu Wang.
As soon as his voice and bid rang out, a wave of astonishment swept through the auction house. Countless surprised gazes turned toward Mo Yu's private pavilion, filled with curiosity.
Everyone speculated about Mo Yu's identity. After all, adding this bid to his earlier purchase of the Heavenly Thunder Jade Marrow, he had already spent a massive fortune. Not just anyone could casually throw out such sums.
In the opposite pavilion, the Enchantress Fairy's captivating eyes landed on Mo Yu, showing a hint of surprise.
Does this person really not know what he's getting himself into by going against Yu Wang?
"180,000!"
At that moment, the Enchantress Fairy was pulled back into the pavilion by a plump hand, and moments later, a suggestive gasp escaped the room. At the same time, Yu Wang's repulsive voice echoed throughout the auction house.
Upon hearing the Enchantress Fairy's enticing yet suppressed voice, many men below had their eyes ablaze with heated imaginations. Some women, realizing what was happening, spat in disdain, their faces tinged with embarrassment.
Yet, the moment the bid of 180,000 Supreme Spirit Liquid was announced, the entire auction hall fell silent. Everyone knew that the real titans had entered the game.
"Oh? Since you want to play, I'll entertain you."
Mo Yu chuckled calmly, though his eyes carried a trace of coldness. Although Yu Wang held a prestigious position within the Sky Profound Sect, Mo Yu refused to believe that he could casually throw around hundreds of thousands—or even millions—of Supreme Spirit Liquid to suppress him.
Even if he could, Mo Yu had nothing to fear!
No matter what, he was determined to secure the Everlasting Holy Spirit Fruit!
"190,000."
Mo Yu leaned back into his chair, his steady voice resonating throughout the auction house, causing many to click their tongues in awe. Their gazes turned even more intrigued as they wondered which powerful faction Mo Yu hailed from.
In the opposite pavilion, Yu Wang's eyes narrowed slightly, a chilling glint flashing deep within. Earlier, he had already sensed the killing intent from Mo Yu and had remained wary. Now, it was clear that this man held a grudge against him.
Realizing this, Yu Wang continued caressing the beauty in his arms before waving his hand and saying coldly, "200,000!"
"I'd like to see who this reckless fool thinks he is, trying to act tough in front of me!"
A disgusting sneer curled on Yu Wang's lips. With the Sky Profound Sect backing him, he had no reason to fear Mo Yu—unless he was from one of the ancient clans or an enigmatic power.
"230,000."
However, before his words had fully settled, Mo Yu calmly raised the bid again—this time by a sharp increase of 30,000 Supreme Spirit Liquid.
Such a bold move instantly triggered a wave of exclamations. Even the Enchantress Fairy's alluring eyes widened slightly in surprise.
This handsome man… his wealth and courage are truly remarkable!
Yu Wang's face darkened, his plump features twitching with an icy chill. Although he had considerable wealth, tens of thousands of Supreme Spirit Liquid were no small sum, especially since he had subordinates to support. If it came down to a contest of financial strength, he was not confident he could win.
"250,000!" Yu Wang growled, attempting a final counter.
However, Mo Yu's next bid completely shattered his confidence.
"300,000."
With a casual wave of his hand, Mo Yu stated his bid indifferently.
At this, Yu Wang's chubby face twisted into an ugly scowl. His eyes narrowed into slits as a sinister gleam flickered within. Then, he sneered coldly, "Looks like this bastard is deliberately going against me. Fine, I'll let him have it for now. Once the auction is over, I'll claim it myself."
Hearing these words, the Enchantress Fairy's charming face changed slightly. She knew what this meant. The infamous and ruthless Yu Wang had now fully set his sights on Mo Yu, likely harboring murderous intent.
She couldn't help but glance at Mo Yu sympathetically. There was no doubt about it—compared to Yu Wang, an obese and repulsive man, Mo Yu's handsome and coldly elegant appearance was infinitely more pleasing to women…
With Mo Yu's bid reaching 300,000 Supreme Spirit Liquid, no one else dared to compete. His overwhelming presence had deterred all challengers.
After a brief wait, the auctioneer finally announced the result: the Everlasting Holy Spirit Fruit was successfully secured by Mo Yu.
Even then, Mo Yu remained composed, his expression as calm as ever. To him, 300,000 Supreme Spirit Liquid was merely a drop in the ocean.
"Yu Wang is the type to hold grudges. Now that you've thoroughly provoked him, he'll definitely come after you, possibly even with murderous intent," the Wind Emperor's voice echoed in Mo Yu's mind.
Mo Yu gave a slight nod, neither agreeing nor disagreeing.
Although that guy was also an Earthly Supreme, as long as he wasn't at the Perfection stage, he wouldn't pose too much of a threat to Mo Yu.
And that Yu Wang clearly couldn't be a Perfected Earthly Supreme level.
Mo Yu's thoughts turned briefly before he withdrew his mind and turned his gaze to the auction platform. At this moment, Master Mo Qing had already brought out the ninth auction item.
As expected, it was precisely the final material needed to resurrect the Wind Emperor—
Undying Corpse Essence.
A drop of black liquid appeared in Master Mo Qing's withered hand, emanating a strange aura. It looked as if it had been extracted from a corpse, carrying a peculiar, rancid odor.
It was said that when some Earthly Supreme experts died, Undying Corpse Essence could form within their bodies. This substance contained a potent deathly aura, which made it invaluable for cultivating certain special spirit arts and divine techniques, or even for resurrecting fallen Supreme and Earthly Supreme powerhouses.
With the help of Undying Corpse Essence, a fallen Supreme or Earthly Supreme could, as long as their soul still remained, merge their spirit with their flesh once more and return to their peak, making it an incredibly eerie substance.
Thus, whenever Undying Corpse Essence appeared, it would always spark fierce competition among the strong—no price was too great.
Inside the massive auction hall, countless eyes burned with greed, filled with intense desire. If not for the rational fear that taking action in this place would be tantamount to seeking death, some might have already made a move to snatch it.
On the auction stage, Master Mo Qing, seeing the countless greedy gazes, remained indifferent as he spoke, "Undying Corpse Essence, starting bid: 200,000 Supreme Spirit Liquid."
The entire hall fell into a stunned silence, followed by gasps of shock. 200,000 Supreme Spirit Liquid—such an astronomical sum was far beyond what ordinary people could afford.
Such a divine object was truly something only the wealthy could obtain.
Mo Yu's expression remained calm upon hearing the bid, as if it made no difference to him whether it was 20,000 or 200,000 Supreme Spirit Liquid.
"500,000."
While others were still marveling at the starting price, Mo Yu cut straight to the point, raising the bid by 300,000 without hesitation.
Another wave of gasps echoed through the hall—no one had expected Mo Yu to increase the price so drastically in one go. Clearly, he was determined to obtain it. But just who was he? He was truly wealthy beyond measure.
Yu Wang had just been about to bid when he heard the shocking number—500,000 Supreme Spirit Liquid. His mouth, which had been open to call out a price, was abruptly forced shut by Mo Yu's bid.
Instantly, shame and anger flickered across Yu Wang's plump face. His grip tightened, causing the alluring fox-like woman in his embrace to wince in pain. If not for her genuinely sturdy physique, she might have been crushed right then and there.
Taking a deep breath, Yu Wang suppressed his rage. His narrow eyes flickered with thought, and to everyone's surprise, he did not bid further.
With Yu Wang withdrawing, the other forces naturally lacked the financial power to compete. After exchanging glances, the entire hall fell into silence.
On the auction stage, Master Mo Qing, witnessing the situation, was well aware of the oppressive weight of 500,000 Supreme Spirit Liquid. He glanced in surprise at Mo Yu's private booth before waving his sleeve. The chime of a bell resonated through the hall—signifying that the Undying Corpse Essence now belonged to Mo Yu.
Seeing this, Mo Yu smiled faintly. As he gently traced the armrest of his chair, his slightly narrowed eyes glanced toward Yu Wang's direction, murmuring, "That guy didn't bid... How unexpected."
"Heh, don't think ordinary Earthly Supreme are that rich," Wind Emperor chuckled. "Even if Yu Wang has some wealth, he still has a lot of subordinates to support. Unlike you, he can't be so reckless with his spending. Moreover…"
Wind Emperor's tone deepened. "Moreover, Yu Wang never makes a losing deal. Since he's set his sights on you, he won't waste money on this."
"Oh, planning to ambush me, is he…" Upon hearing this, Mo Yu paused, then let out a cold laugh. "Well then, I'll be waiting for him."
Though Mo Yu wasn't in a position to provoke Sky Profound Sect—the ruler of the Southern Region of the Skylaw Continent—if Yu Wang came knocking, he wouldn't mind teaching him a painful lesson.
Dong!
A crisp bell chime once again echoed through the auction hall. Instantly, everyone straightened their posture. Even in the lofted private booths, the thin veils were pulled aside as countless eyes locked onto the auction platform.
Because they knew—the true highlight of this auction was about to begin.
Many of the powerful forces present had come specifically for this final item.
Mo Yu also lifted his gaze at this moment, curiosity flickering in his eyes. He wanted to see just what kind of treasure could be placed after the Everlasting Holy Spirit Fruit and the Undying Corpse Essence.
Under countless fervent gazes, Master Mo Qing clenched his palm, and a flash of silver light quietly appeared, instantly drawing all attention.
The silver light slowly descended into Mo Qing's hand. As the radiance gradually faded, the object was finally revealed under the intense scrutiny of all present.
It was a silver thunder seal, ancient and profound in color. Strange, ferocious patterns covered its surface, and atop the seal, a silver thunder dragon coiled, its head raised in a skyward roar. A fearsome aura of lightning and killing intent radiated from it, shaking heaven and earth.
Yet, despite its simple, thunder-infused presence, the moment it emerged, it unleashed an overwhelming, world-shaking, murderous aura that made the heavens and earth tremble.
Under this mingling of thunder energy and brutal killing intent, even the powerful figures hidden in the private booths involuntarily stepped back.
"This is the final auction item of the Merchant Auction House—an unknown artifact discovered in an ancient ruin…"
Mo Qing's voice carried a palpable heat as he declared:
"The Baleful Thunder Dragon Seal!"
In an instant, the entire auction house erupted, and the atmosphere soared to its peak!
