C2532 Luck Termination?

"Elder Iron, I've chosen the ore. Have you chosen yet?" Lin Bai did not seem to notice the criticism from the crowd. He also did not notice the doubt in Tie Yuan's eyes as he asked him with a smile.

"Not yet …" Tie Yuan shook his head and replied. Although he didn't want to say anything more, he still couldn't suppress the curiosity in his heart. He asked doubtfully: "Brother Lin, are you sure you want to choose this ore?"

As far as Tie Yuan could see, from his inheritance as a Spirit Master, even though the ore that Lin Bai chose was huge, its skin was a dark yellow color.

This sort of performance was known as the 'Spirit Bleed' omen in the inheritance of the Spirit Master. No matter which type of rock it appeared on, it meant that this piece of ore contained nothing, even the best quality Dragon King's Skin was no exception.

It was not because of any other reason but because the patterns on the ore were actually attacked by the impurities in the ore. They invaded the innermost part of the ore and completely destroyed the spirit energy within. Even if there were spirit stones inside the ore, under this kind of invasion, it would be full of mottled impurities and of inferior quality.

The one that Lin Bai chose had a very low probability of containing spirit stones, and even if it did, it was usually a low grade spirit stone. If one was hit by the Spirit Bleed again, it could be said to be the worst type of dog urine.

Although Tie Yuan was not a proud person, he was confident that if Lin Bai really wanted to use this ore to gamble with him, he wouldn't even need to use the inheritance of the Slicer Spirit Master.

"That's right, I've chosen it. This is it. I won't trade for it!" After Lin Bai heard this, he shook his head slightly and said confidently. What a joke! This ore was so attractive to him that it even made him feel uneasy. If he were to abandon this ore, he would be a complete fool.

Seeing that Lin Bai had made up his mind, there was no longer any room for him to return to the outside world, he could only bitterly smile and shake his head, no longer obstructing him. However, he did not use the Slicing Spirit Master to pass on the ore to the other people, and instead picked the ore closest to him and lightly smiled: "If that's the case, then I'll use this ore to compete with you, Brother Lin, and see how the outcome is."

"Did you see that? Elder Tie began to deliberately go easy on him. Although he was deliberately throwing his weight around, it can be seen how much he was underestimating that ore in Senior Lin's hands …" When they saw Tie Yuan's actions, everyone immediately burst out in laughter. Especially those who had suppressed Tie Yuan's victory, they were all smiling with mischievous smiles on their faces.

Amidst these roars of laughter, the complexions of Qong Chang Geng, Leng Zhan Yan, and the guard bird became incomparably ugly as well. How could they not see what Tie Yuan was planning to do? Although Tie Yuan's intentions were good, his good intentions were even more apparent. His contempt and disdain towards the ore in Lin Bai's hand was not something that he would casually choose to compete with Lin Bai for.

In this situation, they couldn't help but start to suspect Lin Bai. They began to suspect if Lin Bai chose this piece of Spirit Bleeding Rocks to intentionally lose to Tie Yuan, which was why he was acting like this.

"Elder Iron does intend to concede, but I won't be disrespectful when you show your good intentions." Lin Bai laughed softly when he saw this. After which, he cupped his hands together towards Tie Yuan and said, "Old Tie, in this final match, you are the senior. You should go first."

Tie Yuan didn't say anything and just nodded his head. He took out his Jade Blade and started to split the ore in his hand.

Kacha, kacha! As the metal element continued to descend, the crisp sound of stone peeling could be heard. Compared to before, his movements had become even more graceful and graceful. It did not seem like he was peeling a rock, but more like the dance of a blade, full of beauty.

From this detail, it could be seen that after completing his long-cherished wish of obtaining a top grade spirit stone by himself, Tie Yuan's heart no longer had any shackles around him.

In just a short span of a moment, a third of the large rock that Tie Yuan chose had already been cut down, leaving a thick layer of stone debris on the ground.

At this moment, the entire place was extremely quiet. No one dared to disturb them as they all held their breaths and watched with rapt attention. Although the spectators had all tacitly agreed to this bet, it would definitely end with Lin Bai's defeat. However, a thing like a stone opening would not have an absolute result until the very last moment. No one knew what the result would be when the next blade came down.

Tie Yuan was completely focused on his jade sword. It was like a swimming dragon as it continuously danced in the air. The world was completely silent except for the graceful movements of his blade like a passionate conductor playing a tune he admired the most.

Time passed by slowly. Tie Yuan's movements were getting slower and gentler, as if he had already sensed something. He was afraid that if he moved slightly more, he would destroy the essence of the ore.

Seeing his actions, everyone tensed up as if they were about to suffocate. Their eyes never blinked as they stared at Tie Yuan's movements, afraid that if they were distracted even a little, they would miss the most crucial scene.

Weng! * A moment later, along with the fall of a stone shard, a resplendent glow suddenly fell from the ore in Tie Yuan's palm. Then, a mysterious and agile aura swiftly spread out, engulfing everyone's nerves.

"It's out! He had cut out a spirit stone! High-grade spirit stones are definitely the raw stones of high-grade spirit stones and above! " All of them stared at the ore with wide eyes, waiting for the final piece of gauze to be torn apart and for it to appear.

"Fellow Daoist Qong, I won't be disrespectful to your Origin Returning Pill!" Seeing this, that disciple from the Sword Pavilion also threw his head back and laughed loudly. With a mischievous expression, he looked at Quang Chang Geng and said, "I just hope that the pain and suffering that you're about to lose hurt our relationship."

Swish! Swish! Swish! At this final moment, Tie Yuan's speed suddenly sped up and stone fragments continuously flew about. Gradually, the contents within were revealed. What he had unraveled this time was shockingly a high-grade spirit stone.

"What a pity. It's just a high-grade spirit stone, not a top-grade spirit stone …" Upon seeing the power of the spirit stones, the spectators couldn't help but to shake their heads and sigh. They felt somewhat disappointed, but soon after, they couldn't help but burst out laughing.

Being able to cut out a high-grade spirit stone was, in fact, an incredible thing. The reason why they felt that cutting out a high-grade spirit stone was a pity, not because of anything else, but because the gambling house was simply too exciting. The spirit stones cut out were truly extraordinary, making them feel that high-grade spirit stones were nothing to them.

"Brother Lin, I am truly sorry. I did not intend to do this, but I never expected to obtain such a great harvest …" When he saw the spirit stones, although Tie Yuan was a little excited, he still smiled apologetically at Lin Bai.

The reason why he had chosen a piece of ore so casually was not because of anything else, but because he wanted to let Lin Bai win a little more. Perhaps even if he lost, he wouldn't lose too badly. However, he really didn't expect that by an unintentional act, he would actually be able to produce a high-grade spirit stone. In that case, as far as he was concerned, Lin Bai had no chance of winning at all.

However, he also understood that even if Lin Bai lost, he couldn't blame him for it. He could only blame himself for taking too many risks and choosing ores based on luck rather than a few that looked better.

"It doesn't matter. At least Elder Iron got a good start!" When Lin Bai heard this, he chuckled and said confidently, "Let this brick of yours, Old Tie, bring me a piece of fine jade!"

Even at this point, Lin Bai was still able to utter such boastful words! Upon hearing Lin Bai's words, the eyes of the onlookers almost popped out of their sockets.

Lin Bai's arrogance had already far exceeded their imaginations. With just a piece of Spirit Bleed Raw Stone, he actually thought that he could beat a top grade iron essence spirit stone. This was beyond his imagination.

"Senior Lin seems to be boasting about himself. In truth, he had already anticipated that he would lose. By saying those words, he was merely trying to make us happy." Upon hearing Lin Bai's words, everyone in the crowd burst out in laughter.

"Elder Tie, open the stone. Let me see what is inside this ore!" Yet, right now, Lin Bai was as though he had gone deaf, as though he couldn't hear the mischief in the voices of the crowd. His eyes were fixated on that gigantic boulder, and he was even rubbing his hands together, a look of impatience on his face.

What was going on? Could it be that this little brat really had something to rely on? Did he think that his gains this time were not bad? Looking at Lin Bai's nervous and expectant appearance, Tie Yuan's brows tightly knitted together, his heart at a loss.

"Old Iron, hurry up and open the stone. Let Senior Lin give up on this thought and stop hoping to cut out something from the ore!" Upon seeing the expression on Lin Bai's face, the spectators couldn't help but burst out in laughter.

As long as he cut it open, the truth would be revealed! Hearing these people's words, Tie Yuan couldn't help but shake his head with a bitter smile. Then, he gently swung the Jade Blade in his hand and slashed at the huge ore.

As the knife fell, the rock that was as tall as half a person was immediately split into two halves from the middle! However, the inside of the ore was mottled and messy like grime. Not a single trace of spirit energy could be seen …

Had the master's luck really run out? When this scene appeared, Leng Zhan Yan's heart suddenly thumped loudly, as he had a bad premonition.
