Chapter 190 Crisis

Lin Mu heard this and a smile immediately appeared on his face.

First on the rare treasure list!

This was completely beyond his expectation.

Although there were only about ten top-grade magic tools in this auction, they were all of excellent quality.

Many wealthy people also came for top-grade magic tools.

Lin Mu never thought that his Guiling Pill could surpass many top-grade magic tools and take the top spot.

First on the rare treasure list!

This is not just a ranking.

Every time the treasure ranked first is all top-grade and of great value.

The competition caused by this is also the most brutal.

The first treasure is also the best treasure. Who doesn't want it?

Especially for those who have too many spirit stones to spend, such treasures are their favorites.

Lin Mu still remembers the graceful figure of the young man in white. He was the leader in that auction and bought several top-grade magic tools by himself, shocking the whole audience.

In such a situation, the higher the treasure is ranked, the higher the price will be.

The Fengyuan Sword, which ranked first last time, was sold at a sky-high price of 180,000 low-grade spirit stones.

Even the purple incense burner in Lin Mu's hand, which ranked third, was as high as 106,000.

These 17,000 bottles of Guiling Pills, even if each bottle is 20 low-grade spirit stones, the real value is far more than the Fengyuan Sword.

Ranked first, well deserved!

Lin Mu smiled and said modestly: "Thank you three seniors for your kindness. I can occupy the first throne with just over 10,000 bottles of Guiling Pills."

The white-bearded old man smiled kindly: "Don't be so modest. The value of a bottle of Guiling Pills is indeed not high, but such a large number has accumulated from quantitative change to qualitative change, and the value is far beyond many top-grade magic tools. Ranked first, it is well deserved."

The other two treasure appraisers also smiled and nodded from time to time.

As the auction was approaching, the auction house had not received many valuable auction items. It was clear that relying solely on those few top-grade magic tools would not attract a large number of cultivators.

Now that there were more than 10,000 bottles of Guiling Pills, they were sufficient to solve the urgent problem, and the three of them were naturally very happy.

"But..." The white-bearded old man suddenly changed the subject and looked at Lin Mu: "If these 17,000 bottles of Guiling Pills are auctioned together, the value is too high. In my opinion, it is better to divide them into two parts and auction them separately, one part is 10,000 bottles, and the other part is 7,000 bottles. Maybe they can sell at a higher price."

Lin Mu looked surprised and asked: "Why is that?"

The white-bearded old man smiled and explained: "If they are auctioned together, the price is indeed very high, but it also discourages many people. If they are auctioned separately, there will be more competitors, and some people will try their best to get them. Even if they can't get them, they can raise the price very high. In comparison, the effect is much better than auctioning them together."

"Of course, this is just my suggestion." The white-bearded old man smiled and said: "It depends on your wishes. What do you think?"

Lin Mu pondered for a moment and did not decide immediately, but asked: "If these pills are divided into two parts, I wonder how high they can be ranked on the rare treasure list?"

This is something Lin Mu cares about very much.

The ranking of an auction often determines the final price.

Many times, people come for the first place.

As for the second place, few people can remember it.

Even if the second place is not much worse than the first place.

It is human nature.

If these Guiling Pills are separated and the ranking drops sharply, in Lin Mu's opinion, it is not worth the loss.

Instead, it is better to auction them together and let those wealthy people fight to the death.

The white-bearded old man smiled at Lin Mu, as if he saw what he was thinking, and said with a smile: "This 7,000 bottles can only be ranked second."

Lin Mu was stunned, and then he understood, with a smile on his face.

He had never thought that he could still take the first two places if it was divided into two.

Guiling Pills still ranked first, and Lin Mu breathed a sigh of relief.

Ranking first can attract many wealthy people to compete.

The more intense the competition, the more he earns.

Lin Mu looked at the old man and said with a smile: "Since the senior said so, I naturally have no objection, so I will do as the senior said."

The old man in white smiled and said: "That's great. Within this month, the auction house will spare no effort to promote this batch of Guiling Pills. By then, many wealthy people will come. I hope you don't miss it."

Lin Mu smiled and said: "I will definitely come on time."

The white-bearded old man smiled and took out two jade slips from the storage bag, recorded the number of the two Guiling Pills in the jade slips, and left his own spiritual mark in the two jade slips. Then he handed the jade slips to the other two treasure appraisal masters beside him.

The two masters took the jade slips and followed the same method, leaving their own marks in the jade slips.

The two tokens were completed.

The white-bearded old man handed two tokens to Lin Mu and instructed: "You must keep these two tokens properly and never lose them. After the auction is successful, you can only come to collect the auction proceeds with these two tokens. Without the tokens, it will be useless even if you come in person."

Lin Mu naturally understood the importance of the two tokens. He took them solemnly, checked them with his spiritual sense, confirmed them, and then carefully put them into the storage bag.

After collecting the tokens, Lin Mu and the three old men bowed and said goodbye, and left with Shitou.

The two walked out of the auction house, and Shitou asked: "Master, do we have to wait here for a month?"

Lin Mu walked without stopping, and said with a smile: "In this Linwufang, it costs a lot of spiritual stones to stay overnight. After a month, the cost is not cheap. Why don't we go to the Misty Forest to take a look. You have never seen the Misty Forest. This time I will take you to see it."

Shitou's face was happy, and his eyes became bright: "Okay."

The two then walked out of Linwufang.

Outside Linwufang, there were people in groups of three or two.

Many people were preparing to go out to hunt monsters and were waiting for their companions to come.

Some people were alone and wanted to team up with others.

As soon as Lin Mu and Shitou walked out of Linwufang, two foundation-building cultivators came forward with a smile and said, "Do you two want to go monster hunting? Why don't we go together?"

Lin Mu and Shitou stopped in their tracks. Lin Mu looked at the two men, who were only in the middle stage of foundation building, and asked with a smile, "I have never hunted monsters before, how can I go together?"

"After selling the proceeds from hunting monsters for spirit stones, we will share them equally among the four of us." A cultivator replied with a smile.

Lin Mu glanced at the two men, shook his head and said, "You should ask for help from others."

He gestured to Shitou, who followed him and the two left quickly.

The two flew towards the misty forest. After they were far away from the two men, Shitou asked in confusion: "Master, why didn't you agree to their request? We are not familiar with this place, and their experience should be very helpful to us."

Lin Mu's face was calm, and he said lightly: "You only think of the benefits, but not the disadvantages. We are not familiar with him. If the two of them are evil, they will lead us into a fire pit, or attract accomplices to besiege us and try to kill people and steal treasures. Wouldn't it be a waste of trouble? Even if the two of them are of good character, they are only in the middle stage of foundation building, and their strength is completely not at the same level as ours. It seems fair, but we have to win with them. Why do we have to hunt the low -level monsters with them again? " Everyone is a wicked person, but you still have to keep your heart, beware of one or two, and always be right. At this time, there were several figures flying out of the fog forest. The people who came were all covered in blood, and the light of their flying swords was dim, and they were in a panic.

When they saw Lin Mu, they were also shocked, and then they were happy, and they all stopped in the air.

Luo Yun wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, flew forward, and smiled palely: "Why are you here?"

Lin Mu hurriedly said: "I came to Linwufang to do something, and by the way, I took my apprentice to the misty forest. What happened to you?"

Luo Yun and the people around him all had different degrees of injuries. Luo Yun was better, just exhausted, not injured. The rest of the people, covered in blood, were also Lin Mu's fellow disciples. Lin Mu just looked familiar, but he couldn't call out their names.

Luo Yun had no time to say more, and said in a hurry: "Hundreds of our fellow disciples were hunting monsters in the forest, but accidentally ran into two groups of monsters fighting. We were all involved in the fight and are now in danger and unable to escape. Under the cover of others, a few of us broke out and came to ask for help."

Lin Mu was shocked and asked hurriedly: "Is there anyone familiar in Linwufang?"

Luo Yun shook his head and said: "They are all in the misty forest. I will go to Linwufang to look for them. Even if I pay a high price, I will bring one as long as I can. The situation is urgent, I will talk about it in detail later."

He was about to fly to Linwufang, and several foundation-building cultivators beside him flew forward like him.

Lin Mu didn't have time to think about it and called Luo Yun: "You may not be able to find anyone if you go to Linwufang now. Why don't we rush to rescue people now? Maybe we can still make it."

Luo Yun glanced at Lin Mu and Shitou and said anxiously: "You two are only in the late stage of foundation building. It will be useless if you go. We must find a few spiritual solitude cultivators to help."

The Qingyun Sword under his feet flashed, and he was about to leave again.

Lin Mu sacrificed the Cloud-Stepping Boots and immediately caught up with him: "If you trust me, take me there immediately, and the situation may turn around. If you delay too much time and can't find anyone, I'm afraid you will regret it."

Luo Yun stopped, looked at Lin Mu and Shitou seriously, and then gritted his teeth and said: "Let's go!"

The Qingyun Sword flashed, he turned around and flew into the misty forest first.

The Cloud-Stepping Boots under Lin Mu's feet flashed, and he immediately followed from behind.

Shitou's Jinwu Sword was shining brightly, and his speed was not inferior to Lin Mu.

A group of six or seven people flew rapidly into the forest.
