Chapter 58, the pearl of the demon sea
The price of the Demon Sea Pearl began to soar, Luo Tian didn't plan to participate in the auction, and he didn't have so much money on him at the moment, the purpose was to determine who finally bought the Demon Sea Pearl, and then took it from this person.
This kind of thing is not uncommon in the world, there are many people who do this, but Luo Tian still had such an idea for the first time, of course, he only grabbed the treasure and tried not to kill people as much as possible, not that he was soft-hearted, but that the person who could buy the pearl of the demon sea must have a background, and robbed other people's treasures without hurting their lives, this Liangzi knot is not too big, but if even people are killed, then I am afraid that it will alarm the characters behind these rich and powerful people, this is not the world after all, Luo Tian is not weak, but there are a lot of people who can destroy him in the triple heavenγ
Soon the auction began to revolve around several people, all of whom were determined to win, one of them was dressed strangely, masked and dressed in black, and he didn't want to reveal his true identity at first glance.
"At present, this boss has bid 1.8 million taels, is there any way to continue to increase the price?" asked the auctioneer loudly.
The price has risen from 500,000 taels to 1.8 million taels, and the price is still increasing, Zhu Hua beside Luo Tian said in surprise: "A mere gem, it doesn't sound like it has any special attributes, and it can't be used in refining, why is it so expensive, I see that the previous few crystals have the attributes of the five elements, and the ones that can bless the power of the treasure are not so expensive." β
Luo Tian smiled and said, " There is a kind of thing called luck, there is a kind of influence called star effect, you can't judge the benefits that this thing can bring from the value of an item itself, just take a dagger as an example, it is not a good dagger, it is an ordinary dagger, it may be just a toy in the hands of a child, and it may not be well-known in the hands of an ordinary killer, but if it is a master of the entrance realm who has used this dagger, then this dagger is worth a lot of money even if it is not a treasure, and it will even become very expensive, because this is used by the super master of the entrance realm, and people will make up countless mysterious titles and legends for this dagger that is actually mediocreγ β
Zhu Hua smiled and said: "I understand, take this Demon Sea Pearl as an example, although it is a gemstone with very good color, it is not worth so much money in itself, but because it is the beloved thing of the Lord of the Sun and Moon Palace, the price is particularly high, as for the so-called can bring good luck and the like, in fact, it is more or less a lie." β
"It can't be said to be a lie, but there are certainly people in it who use it as a false rumor. β
While Luo Tian was chatting, the auction gradually came to an end, and at this time, the price of this Demon Sea Pearl had risen to two million taels, and there were only two people left to compete, one of them was a mysterious man dressed in black and a masked, and the other was a wild demon who looked a little bit old and had a fierce face.
"Two million and one hundred thousand taels, is there still a boss who has not increased the price?" asked the auctioneer in a loud voice, and he and the auctioneer also had a stain on his face if he could bid such a high price.
At this time, the mysterious man in black was just about to raise his card, and the fierce demon on the side said coldly: "You have raised the price to Lao Tzu so high, do you still want to continue to argue with Lao Tzu, do you think about it, if you dare to raise your card again, Lao Tzu will kill you in minutes when you go out of Killing Dog City." β
This threat was warned by the auctioneer, but it was useless, the warning was just verbal, who would really guarantee the safety of the buyer, as long as the two-headed old demon made money, where would he care about the buyer's life or death.
The black-clothed mysterious man glanced at the wild demon that threatened him, and didn't seem to take the other party in his eyes, but still raised the sign in his hand, and the auctioneer was just about to speak, but the black-clothed mysterious man said directly: "Two and a half million taels." β
The price of 400,000 taels was added at once, and this price had already made the people participating in the auction in the entire store gasp, and the wild demons competing with it laughed angrily, clapped their hands and said: "Hehe, amazing, quite rich, I give up the bid." β
After three inquiries, the auctioneer dropped the hammer and sold the price, and finally the legendary Demon Sea Pearl Gem given to the Golden Fox Clan by the Lord of the Sun and Moon Palace was taken by the mysterious man in black.
The auction ended quickly, and Luo Tian walked outside the store with Zhu Hua, and found a corner where not many people paid attention.
"I see that there are a lot of people who want to fight this gem outside the store today, and the fierce and rich demon just now must be one of them, and when the market ended, I saw more than a group of people staring at the mysterious man in black, hehe, I'm afraid that the outside of the auction will be more lively than the inside of the auction. Luo Tian smiled coldly.
After waiting for about an hour, Hong Shuangren walked over from the back of the store and said softly: "Just now I saw the mysterious man in black slipping out of the back door of the store, and now he is walking towards the outside of the black market, I should want to escape from the black market." β
"Let's go and see if there's a chance to do it. β
Outside the location of the black market is the Desolate Beast Post Station that left the Broken Continent where the Dog Killing City is located, this kind of place was originally not allowed to exist by the demon clan, but considering the huge scale of the black market in Dog Killing City, there are so many rich and powerful people who come to the black market of Killing Dog City, and the guards of the demon clan dare not stop it casually.
The demon guards who monitored the Killing Dog City generally saw the luxurious carriage, and the powerful desolate beasts did not dare to stop it casually, and the lords on several nearby broken continents had actually secretly taken the benefits of the Killing Dog City, but anyone who saw a special sign on the carriage for black market travel would let them go.
When Luo Tian and they arrived near the post station, they saw that there had been a battle in the forest outside the post station, Luo Tian signaled to Zhuhua and them not to act rashly for the time being, and the three of them looked closer, and found that the mysterious black-clothed man who had bought the gem of the Demon Sea Pearl was surrounded by four or five wild demons, and many corpses could be seen in other places, it seemed that several major battles had broken out, but the corpses that fell to the ground did not seem to be in the same group as the wild demons standing.
Previously, at the end of the auction, several groups of people were eyeing the mysterious man in black, but now it seems that these guys can't wait to do it one by one, but it seems that there is no good fruit to eat.
Rushed to the black market in Killing Dog City to buy such a valuable item, this person's background is not small, and there must be some means.
Now surrounding this person is the wild demon who competed with this person at the auction before, and his own cultivation is also close to the Tiandan Realm, and the cultivation of several thugs under his command is also in the third or fourth layer of the Didan Realm, so it can be said that this strength is already considerable in the territory of the little lord.
"Brother, I don't want to embarrass you, give me the Demon Sea Pearl, I'll let you go, we are just asking for money and can't kill you, and you don't lose your life for money. The demon leader said coldly.
"What if I don't want to give it?" the mysterious man in black was also very strong.
"Hehe, then let you die today without a place to be buried, don't talk nonsense to Lao Tzu, hand over the gems, or I will kill you." The demon leader shouted.
The black-clothed mysterious man suddenly raised his hand, releasing a strong black wind from the black sleeve, permeating the entire forest, Luo Tian raised his hand and released a divine power shield, covering Zhuhua and Hong Shuangren in it, the black-clothed mysterious man had previously used some special means to cover his cultivation, the means were very good, and even Luo Tian didn't see his depth, but this shot expert knows if there is any, the other party's cultivation should be around the second layer of the Tiandan Realm, which is not too high, but it should be more than enough to deal with these wild demons.
Sure enough, where the black wind passed, the forest surrounded by dead trees was full of dry bones, and the wild demons of the Didan Realm were only white bones under the black wind, and only the wild demon leader who was quite arrogant just now was barely standing.
"Don't get out yet!" This person actually didn't kill the demon leader, and after a loud shout, the demon leader was already frightened, turned around and fled for his life.
As soon as he ran, Zhuhua was a little nervous about making a move, but was pressed down by Luo Tian.
"The praying mantis catches the cicada and the yellow finch is behind, and there is still a praying mantis in front of us that has not come out. β
As soon as Luo Tian finished speaking, the mysterious man in black suddenly shouted to the dark forest: "Come out, you have long been hiding in the shadows, and now you should also appear." β
A few messy footsteps came, and the next moment the two demon clans stood in front of the mysterious man in black, and these two people turned out to be quite familiar.
Hong Shuangren said with some surprise: "Aren't these two of the two-headed old demon's subordinates?"
