Chapter 112 The gangster eats the gangster
Next up is Ding Mo, who will be making his grand entrance last.
The Ghost Realm Sect Master set the starting bid for Ding Mo at ten million high-grade spirit stones, with each subsequent bid increasing by one million high-grade spirit stones.
I have to say, Ding Mo is worth the price.
Lin Zhifeng considered himself a handsome man, but compared to Ding Mo, he was far inferior.
First, look at his sharp eyebrows and bright eyes, his face with its slightly angular yet incredibly handsome features; then look at his height and long, perfectly proportioned legs; not to mention his beautifully toned, yet not exaggerated, muscles...
Lin Zhifeng had read an article by an ancient man named Song Yu in his original world. He described his neighbor's beautiful woman as "Adding an inch would make her too tall, subtracting an inch would make her too short; applying powder would make her too white, applying rouge would make her too red..." Although it was not quite appropriate to use it on Ding Mo, it roughly expressed Lin Zhifeng's feelings at this moment.
Lin Zhifeng asked himself, "I'm a man too. If I were a woman, I probably would have fallen for Ding Mo as well."
Regardless of his talent and cultivation, just his appearance alone would make him a worthwhile male concubine!
Not to mention his extraordinary physique; he was clearly a good candidate for cultivation.
So you can imagine how fierce the competition was once the bidding started.
Buyers competed to bid, and the price quickly soared to thirty million.
Lin Zhifeng and the others couldn't help but feel envious, but Ding Mo remained indifferent, as if the fierce bidding had nothing to do with him.
In the blink of an eye, the auction price soared to 100 million high-grade spirit stones, leaving Lin Zhifeng and the others dumbfounded. It should be noted that 10,000 high-grade spirit stones might be the equivalent of a lifetime's worth of wealth for an ordinary cultivator, even without eating or drinking.
Many people regretfully gave up the bidding, but five people continued to raise the price.
At this moment, one of the bidders, no longer caring about revealing his identity, spoke up: "Fellow enthusiasts, I am determined to have this body. Could you all do me the honor and let me have it?"
Lin Zhifeng, watching the spectacle from above, was also amazed by this maneuver. "So that's how it works? Do all the other people know you? Why would they give you this kind of face?"
It seems these buyers know each other; at least, someone recognized him as soon as he opened his mouth.
However, recognizing someone is one thing, but whether or not they buy into it is another.
Although three bidders withdrew from the auction after he said that, one person didn't care and continued to bid regardless, clearly determined to win Ding Mo's bid.
The man who had spoken first said urgently, "What? Are you determined to make things difficult for me?"
The man, whether using a voice changer or not, spoke in a hoarse, sarcastic voice: "Black Mountain Monster, it's you who's being unreasonable and breaking the rules. I bid fairly, and if I win a spirit stone, I won't shortchange them. How does that make me want to cause trouble for you?"
The man said, "Since you know who I am, you must know what I'm capable of. Why make things difficult for yourself? Isn't it better to be alive? You can have plenty of health in the future, but once you're dead, you're really dead."
The man said, "Black Mountain Monster, don't push your luck. I already let you win that one for ten million. Why do you still want this one? Good things can't all go to you, can they? How about we have a fair competition, the highest bidder wins! Everyone, be the judge, am I right?"
After he finished speaking, he looked around, looking for an ally.
Unfortunately, these people either couldn't afford to offend the Black Mountain Monster he mentioned, or they didn't want to expose themselves, so none of them spoke.
The Black Mountain Monster laughed and said, "You don't need to look anymore. They've all agreed to give way. You're the only one left."
The man retorted defiantly, "They may fear you, but I don't. If it were before, when you were at the Mahayana Realm, I wouldn't dare offend you. Now that you've dropped two realms and are at the late-stage Void Refinement Realm like me, it's not certain who will win or lose!"
Lin Zhifeng only realized he'd been photographed by the shorter man beside the Black Mountain Monster after hearing this man mention it. So that man was in cahoots with the Black Mountain Monster! Birds of a feather flock together, indeed!
It would be best if these two people fought; only then would the Sword Sect disciples have a chance of winning.
They had previously assumed that the most powerful cultivator in the Ghost Realm Sect was its sect leader, who was at the Nascent Soul stage. The others were all at the Core Formation stage, so they were not a threat.
But they ignored the buyers.
Since they are already planning to possess another body, their cultivation level will no longer be limited to the low levels of ordinary ghost cultivators such as Nascent Soul and Deity Transformation.
Based on their conversation, Lin Zhifeng deduced that the two of them had the highest cultivation level, both being at the Refinement Void Realm.
If they can fight to the death, the remaining two will still have a fighting chance.
At this moment, the Black Mountain Monster below the stage said, "Although my cultivation level has declined, defeating you is still as easy as turning my hand. Besides, I have helpers, so you should just accept your fate."
The man tried to negotiate with him: "If you really want this one, then you have to give me the one from before, and I'll bid ten million high-grade spirit stones for it."
The Black Mountain Monster said, "No! My wife needs that."
Lin Zhifeng, a bystander, was startled upon hearing this. What the heck? Wife? Need her?
I'm a man!
Is your wife actually a man?
Or does your wife want to change her gender?
So, does that mean you two went from being a good couple to being good brothers?
Or perhaps you are all the same kind of people... Lin Zhifeng dared not imagine what would happen to him if they succeeded.
It's probably the lyrics of that famous song, right?
Lin Zhifeng was so frightened that he banished the bloody images from his mind and mentally supported the brave man who was fighting against the Black Mountain Monster.
Fortunately, that person did not disappoint Lin Zhifeng.
Hearing what the Black Mountain Monster said, he angrily retorted, "Don't push your luck!"
The Black Mountain Monster shrugged. A disdainful smile must have been plastered on his face beneath the mask.
The man turned to the Ghost Realm Sect members, who had been silent since their argument began, and asked sternly, "He's being unreasonable and forcing people to buy and sell. Aren't you organizers going to do anything about it?"
The Ghost Realm Sect Master said in a low voice after a long while, "Gentlemen, let alone the fact that I am only at the Nascent Soul Realm now, even back then I couldn't compare to you two. Can you two resolve this yourselves? Don't make things difficult for me."
The man cursed, "You're nothing special and you dare to hold an auction? Bah!"
After cursing, he turned to the Black Mountain Monster and said, "You come with me outside to fight. Whoever wins gets to decide!"
The Black Mountain Monster said, "Let's go, why would I be afraid of you?" After saying that, he patted the short man next to him and said gently, "Wife, wait for me here. I'll go and fight him, and I'll come back to pick you up in a while."
Then, changing his tone, he instructed the Ghost Realm Sect Master: "This person is mine now. Adding one more, that's a total of fifty million. That's all I have!"
The Ghost Realm Sect Master muttered under his breath, "You can't do this! This isn't just fifty million anymore; the last one was ten million! You can't expect me to lose money, can you?"
Black Mountain Monster said, "You can decide for yourself whether to purchase it for 50 million or for zero. I'll give you an answer when I get back."
After saying that, he left the owner of the Ghost Realm Sect and went to the Ghost Realm Sect's training ground to compete with the person who had challenged him earlier.
The owner of the Ghost Realm Sect was frustrated by his insufficient cultivation level; the sect's strongest fighter was himself, a Nascent Soul cultivator. Moreover, unlike other powerful sects with deep foundations, they didn't have elders at the Mahayana or even the Integration Realm. Otherwise, why would they be so easily bullied? They had to put on a smiling face and swallow their anger.
After the two people left, the auction continued.
The Ghost Realm Sect Master, who previously failed to sell his property at auction, is now offering it for a fixed price.
Those who previously wanted to bid on the later items, but now that they've lost out to others and don't want to go back empty-handed, are making their moves now.
Lin Zhifeng kept his eyes fixed on Ding Mo on the stage, waiting for his order to make a move.
The Ghost Realm members and the buyers are currently in the process of exchanging money for goods. The buyers will be leaving soon after settling their accounts, so now is the time to make our move.
Sure enough, Ding Mo said, "Sword, come!"
Lin Zhifeng quickly handed the Dragon's Roar to him.
With his spirit sword in hand, Ding Mo hadn't even had time for the crowd below to react before he transformed into a blur, his sword flashing as he slashed through the binding cloths binding the Sword Sect disciples.
Lin Zhifeng was the first to have his hands freed. He was wearing several storage rings on his hands and began distributing weapons and clothes to everyone.
