"Good stuff! These four top grade immortal spirit stones were not spent unfairly. I really did pick up a treasure!"

Not long after the auction ended, someone delivered the Thousand Illusion Mask to the girl guarding Lin Bai's door. She then handed it over to Lin Bai and collected the four top grade immortal spirit stones.

And after the Thousand Illusion Mask entered his hands, Lin Bai instantly discovered that there was something unusual about the Thousand Illusion Mask. Although the mask had turned into a ball the size of an egg and the feeling of his hand touching it was similar to the material of his skin, he didn't feel even the slightest bit of weight when he touched it. It was as if he was holding air.

Not only that, after the mask was in his hands, Lin Bai also placed it on his face. He silently circulated his mana and poured it into the mask. With a flash of silver light, the mask transformed into the image of a bearded middle-aged man. Looking at his appearance in the mirror, Lin Bai could not help but burst into laughter. He was certain that even if a few ladies came, they might not be able to recognize his appearance.

The Thousand Illusion Mask not only changed one's appearance to perfection, it could even show the smallest details. Even the smallest changes in one's facial expressions could be clearly seen.

Most importantly, aside from its magical effect of changing one's appearance, when it was worn on one's face, one could not feel even the slightest bit of something strange. It was as if it had become one with one's own skin.

With this object in his hand, he would be able to change his appearance and enter the Immortal World. Even if the people from the Supreme Profound Sect and the Sword Pavilion were to continue searching for him in the future, they would probably not be able to recognize his current appearance no matter how hard they tried.

After he took the mask into his hands, the strange feeling in Lin Bai's heart immediately vanished into thin air. Not only that, but when he received the top quality celestial spirit stone from the girl at the door, he realized that there was something strange going on.

And this discovery was that the majority of the Immortal World's resources were indeed in the hands of a heavyweight like Young Lord Heavencraft. But even so, top grade immortal spirit stones were not common. In fact, it was even rarer than the secular world. This could be seen from the girl's trembling hand as she held the top quality spirit stone. It was clear that this was her first time seeing it.

There might be a lot of spirit stones, but the amount of top grade immortal spirit stones could be abnormally low. Thinking of this, Lin Bai's heart was filled with doubts. According to Tie Yuan's explanation, in most cases, a spirit stone vein would contain a portion of top grade spirit stones.

Judging from Young Lord Heavencraft's extraordinary actions, the Heavencraft Family should have quite a few spirit stones in their possession. However, from the fact that he gave up on bidding, it could be seen that he did not have a lot of top grade spirit stones.

"The following item is a remnant of a spell, a secret technique learned by those with lightning roots. Although this item is slightly incomplete, our Gui Yuan Sect has analysed it and believes it to be of incalculable value!" Just as Lin Bai was deep in thought, Gui Long, the host of the auction, once again spoke up in a low voice. He then slowly said, "The starting price for this item is twenty high-grade immortal spirit stones!"

Compared to the Thousand Illusion Mask's Pearl Jade, this incomplete manual was naturally not that eye-catching, but it still attracted a lot of people to try to steal it. In a short while, the price was pushed to the sky-high price of thirty high-grade spirit stones.

"Forty pills!" Just as the person who called out the bid of 30 high grade immortal spirit stones was confident that he could obtain it, Young Lord Heavencraft, who was in the private room, suddenly raised the bid by another 10.

As soon as he said this, the crowd went into an uproar. Many of them were confused, as they didn't understand why the young master of the Heavenly Mystery Realm was bidding for the Lightning Spirit Root.

It was unknown whether it was due to Lin Bai's previous bid or the fact that the bidder was extremely eager for the remaining paper, but after hesitating for a while, when Gui Long was about to smash the hammer a second time, he tentatively increased the bid to fifty high-grade spirit stones.

What was even more surprising was that after this person increased the bid, Young Lord Tianji actually stopped bidding. He did not raise the bid anymore and just allowed that person to buy the fragment for 50 high grade immortal spirit stones.

After the auction, Dragon took out the third item. It was even more incredible, it was an inheritance secret crafted by a Non-Phase Middle Stage expert who had stepped into the dust and personally refined it for his disciple. The power of the technique was boundless, the starting price was 40 high grade immortal spirit stones.

Even Lin Bai was tempted by the power displayed by the inheritance treasure. He probed the price to fifty high grade immortal spirit stones, wanting to see if he could buy it and leave it for future use.

However, it was a pity that he had obviously underestimated the thirst of the people at the auction venue. The price that he called out was lost in the sound of the bidding within the blink of an eye, not even a splash.

After the price was raised to a hundred, Lin Bai completely gave up on bidding for this item. Although this inheritance tool was indeed powerful, it wasn't very useful to him. The only reason he bought it was to change his inheritance tool so he could hide his identity from others. There was no need to use such a high price.

His intention was only to conceal his identity. However, the bidders in the Immortal World wanted to use this item to raise their position and to gain a foothold in the Immortal World. With a different goal, the latter's desire for this object would naturally increase a hundredfold.

However, just when the person who raised the bid to one hundred high-grade spirit stones felt that the secret weapon was already secure in his bid, an unbelievable scene appeared …

"150 high-grade Immortal spirit stones!" Following the direction of Young Master Tianji's private room, another bid could be heard. The voice was as calm as ever, completely devoid of any emotions.

When these words were spoken, not to mention Lin Bai, even the people in the crowd began to feel confused. Although this inheritance secret was extraordinary, it was only useful to ordinary people. There were many experts in the Heavencraft Family as well as many in the Ascendant stage. If Young Master Tianji really wanted this kind of inherited secret device, the family would naturally provide him with even more extraordinary items.

But now, Young Lord Tianji had increased the bid yet again, to the point where he directly raised the bid by another fifty pills. This was truly incomprehensible to the crowd.

After the person who was determined to win heard this, his face turned completely into a bitter melon. Although he did not dare to bid against Young Master Ying Feng, but thinking about how Lin Bai and the previous person had already bid on the same price, Young Master Tian Ji did not show any dissatisfaction. Only then did he steeled his resolve, gritted his teeth and increased the price by another 50 pieces, wanting to try his luck.

However, just as he added the price, Young Master Heavencraft unexpectedly stopped bidding. That inheritance tool ended up in the hands of that person for 150 high grade immortal spirit stones.

Child care! After this action was taken, many of the people present grew apprehensive and began to feel that something was amiss. From what they saw, Young Lord Tianji did not seem to be interested in these things, he just wanted to raise the price intentionally.

Even at this moment, they were starting to suspect that all of this was a trap set by the Young Master Tianji and the Gui Family's trading firm to have Young Master Tianji act as a support so that they could raise the price as much as possible.

However, what they couldn't figure out was that Young Master Tianji's status was so prestigious. Although the Gui Yuan Sect was quite famous in the Immortal World, how could they invite an esteemed person like Young Master Tianji to be their support?

Not to mention these people, even Lin Bai felt that something was amiss, and that Young Master Tianji was a scapegoat. However, what Lin Bai couldn't understand was that aside from Young Master Heavencraft's status, the Gui Family Trading Company was quite famous in the Immortal World. Furthermore, from the start of the auction to now, it had displayed the style that a large auction house should have.

To an auction house, the most important thing was not its strength or financial resources, but its reputation. And asking for help to raise the price was equivalent to asking for help to ruin the brand. Lin Bai did not believe that the Gui Yuan Sect had existed in the Immortal World for so many years and had built up such a huge foundation. He didn't even understand this simple principle.

However, what happened next made Lin Bai gradually begin to doubt his own judgement. After the auction for the legacy magic tools ended, Guilong took out a few more items. Before this, whenever the bidding had reached its most critical moment, just when those people were expressing their determination to win, Young Master Tianji would interfere and raise the price a bit.

Although the final result was that the person who was determined to get it would grit his teeth and pay a high price to get it into his own hands, he felt disgusted as if he had swallowed a fly. He even started to look at Gui Long with a bit of hatred.

Young Master Tianji's position was revered, and they did not dare to provoke him. Naturally, they hated Gui Long and believed that he was deliberately raising the price so that he could kill them.

That's not right! Just as Lin Bai was almost certain that this was the case, he discovered that there was a wry smile on Gui Long's face. It was obvious that even he did not expect the Young Master of the Heavenly Secrets to make such an attempt to raise the price.

But if it wasn't because of the Guiyi Marquis's orders, why would Young Master Tianji do so? Based on Lin Bai's understanding of the other party, he didn't think that the other party would do something like this for no reason at all.

If he wasn't ordered by someone, then he must have some sort of ulterior motive, but what was this ulterior motive? But as he thought of this, Lin Bai's eyes suddenly lit up. He felt that he had grasped onto something …
