Chapter 120: Ghost Gate Thirteen Needles!
As soon as these words were spoken, the crowd suddenly exclaimed in unison: "How is this possible!"
"The Ghost Doctor Sect is the Fallen Phoenix Sect? That incredibly mysterious sect, whose location is unknown, and which has very few members yet every one of them possesses unique skills?"
"The Ghost Gate Medical Saint is the Gui Sheng Xie Yi? How can this be?"
"If the facts are truly so, wouldn't buying these Ghost Gate Thirteen Needles to gift to the Gui Sheng Xie Yi be a way to befriend the Gui Sheng Xie Yi?"
"It's just that these needles..."
Swish, swish, swish!
The crowd looked over in unison and discovered it was the middle-aged man in the green robe speaking again, and they could not help but feel a sense of awe toward him.
This man's first bid was indeed a bit insidious, but every word he said was the truth, saying everything the crowd wanted to say but dared not.
Moreover, he even revealed secrets they did not know.
For the small Liuli Sect to be able to bring out such an item, it would be impossible not to be suspicious.
Luo Yingying smiled radiantly: "This senior's words are absolutely correct; this is also what I was about to say next."
"The Ghost Doctor Sect is indeed the Fallen Phoenix Sect, the Ghost Gate Medical Saint is the Ghost Saint Evil Doctor, and the Ghost Gate Thirteen Needles are precisely the needles the Ghost Saint Evil Doctor left behind!"
She began to raise the stakes for the Ghost Gate Thirteen Needles: "The Ghost Gate Thirteen Needles are extremely important to the Gui Sheng Xie Yi; he searched for them for many years without success, and it became a heartache for him."
"As long as you win the Ghost Gate Thirteen Needles in the auction, you will certainly be able to befriend the Gui Sheng Xie Yi; the benefits go without saying."
"Additionally, there is one more point the senior did not mention: these Ghost Gate Thirteen Needles are not only for healing, they are also lethal weapons!"
She paused on purpose to let those who understood speak the truth, while she brought out the item to verify it.
Luo Yingying held the Storage Ring in her hand, and with a single swipe, a black box flew out from the ring.
She faced the bottom of the box toward the crowd and channeled Spiritual Power into it.
The box emitted a humming sound, and the winding patterns on the bottom came to life.
A fiery red parasol tree appeared upon it.
Creak!
A phoenix cry arose, and a miniature fire phoenix flew out from the parasol tree.
Caw! Caw! Caw!
The miniature fire phoenix faced one direction and cried out three times in succession.
The four fiery red characters for 'Fallen Phoenix Sect' appeared on the patterns.
Whoosh!
The lid of the box opened abruptly, and amidst a clanging sound, thirteen fiery red fine needles shot out and arranged themselves in a row.
In the middle of the thirteen fiery red fine needles, the three small characters 'Fallen Phoenix Sect' appeared slowly and strikingly!
Immediately, an inexplicable Dao aura radiated from the thirteen needles, making people feel awe!
Someone exclaimed: "The phoenix descends upon the parasol tree, the Ghost Gate Thirteen Needles! These are indeed the Ghost Gate Medical Saint's Ghost Gate Thirteen Needles!"
"It must be! The Ghost Gate Thirteen Needles cannot be faked, and the Dao aura upon them cannot be faked!"
The rest of the people also expressed their agreement one after another.
They all stared with burning gazes at the box in Luo Yingying's hands, eager to try!
Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!
Many people stood up excitedly, their bodies trembling, wishing they could rush up immediately to snatch the Ghost Gate Thirteen Needles.
The Gui Sheng Xie Yi was, after all, a cultivator at the Great Vehicle Stage, and his medical skills were at the pinnacle.
If one could win the Ghost Gate Thirteen Needles and gain the favor of the Gui Sheng Xie Yi, wouldn't that be obtaining a massive stroke of fortune?
No one wanted to miss such an opportunity!
It was just that very few people noticed.
After the miniature phoenix flew out, it faced one specific direction.
Moreover, its eyes were open, gazing in one direction, and the three cries were also directed toward one direction.
And the silver-robed man, who had been calm,
suddenly had an expression of disbelief on his face as he looked toward Lu Tianyu.
Because only he had observed that the fire phoenix did not make sounds randomly, but had sensed something, which was why it cried out toward one direction.
And sitting in this direction was one person: Lu Tianyu.
At this moment, the palm of Lu Tianyu's hand was burning hot.
The fire phoenix's three cries just now had almost caused the Phoenix Ring in his palm to fly out.
Fortunately, after he suppressed it with all his might, it finally stabilized.
He knew very clearly that as long as he reached out and beckoned, the Ghost Gate Thirteen Needles would immediately fly toward him and be completely under his control.
However, now was not the time to be exposed; he needed to wait for the critical moment.
Seeing that the atmosphere at the scene had reached its peak, Luo Yingying spoke in a timely manner: "The Ghost Gate Thirteen Needles, the auction begins now!"
"The starting price is one thousand top-grade Spirit Stones; each increment must be no less than one hundred top-grade Spirit Stones. Please, everyone, place your bids!"
One top-grade Spirit Stone was equivalent to one million Low-grade Spirit Stones; one hundred of them would be one hundred million Low-grade Spirit Stones.
One thousand top-grade Spirit Stones was equivalent to one billion Low-grade Spirit Stones.
Each increment of one hundred top-grade Spirit Stones was equivalent to an increment of one hundred million Low-grade Spirit Stones.
But as the Ghost Gate Thirteen Needles, this price was not excessive.
These Ghost Gate Thirteen Needles represented a great stroke of fortune; one thousand top-grade Spirit Stones was not expensive and was an acceptable price.
However, once this price was announced, most people's faces revealed expressions of disappointment.
One thousand top-grade Spirit Stones was a sky-high price for them, and they could only sigh at the vast ocean.
But then, a loud shout rang out: "One thousand top-grade Spirit Stones, no one is allowed to compete with me!"
Everyone looked over in unison, only to see Tian Shiguang stand up with an arrogant expression: "I am Tian Shiguang, one of the Four Young Masters of the Joyous Union Heaven Sect!"
"If you give me this face, I will treat you all to consumption at Tianxianglou; order whatever wine and meat you want, and find whatever beauties you like!"
He had come specifically for these Ghost Gate Thirteen Needles, and having only participated in the bidding for five women previously, he had not spoken since.
His purpose was to conserve his strength to bid for these Ghost Gate Thirteen Needles.
Tian Shiguang had calculated it very clearly; the food, drink, and entertainment for everyone present would not amount to much money.
If he could avoid participating in the bidding, it would be quite cost-effective for him to acquire the Ghost Gate Thirteen Needles at the starting price.
He had previously asked the Sect Master of the Liuli Sect if she could sell the Ghost Gate Thirteen Needles directly to him at a low price, but he was politely refused by the Sect Master of the Liuli Sect.
The reason was that the last three items were all placed here for auction by someone, and they could not afford to offend this person, nor could they reveal this person's name.
Helpless, Tian Shiguang had no choice but to participate in the bidding.
As soon as these words were spoken, the twenty or thirty people capable of participating in the bidding immediately hesitated.
After about ten breaths of time, around twenty people gave up.
They all knew the madness of the Four Young Masters of the Joyous Union Heaven Sect and dared not provoke him.
"One thousand one hundred Top-Grade Spirit Stones!" Following Tian Shiguang, the big fatty in seat number five was the first to speak.
Next was the bearded man in seat number three, who spoke unhurriedly: "One thousand two hundred Top-Grade Spirit Stones!"
The middle-aged man in the green robe followed closely behind: "One thousand three hundred Top-Grade Spirit Stones!"
Tian Shiguang said angrily: "You, you all!"
He flicked his sleeves: "One thousand four hundred Top-Grade Spirit Stones!"
He knew that those sitting in the front rows must have extraordinary identities, so he dared not threaten them.
"One thousand five hundred Top-Grade Spirit Stones!"
"One thousand six hundred Top-Grade Spirit Stones!"
"One thousand seven hundred Top-Grade Spirit Stones!"
The price of the Ghost Gate Thirteen Needles was quickly raised to one thousand seven hundred Top-Grade Spirit Stones by the bearded man.
Tian Shiguang was so angry that his face turned livid, but he could only swallow his pride: "One thousand eight hundred Top-Grade Spirit Stones!"
But then a faint voice spoke up, making him jump straight up in anger.
