Mo Jiuli smiled faintly, and with a thought, she put the coffin away and stored it in her space!
After watching Guyan struggle outside for quite some time, Little Lingling and others in the space also took up the challenge with the coffin, exerting all their energy to pry open a crack in the pitch-dark coffin, mysterious and enigmatic, to take a peek…
In the blink of an eye, the auction had reached a new climax.
Currently, the item being auctioned was the Phantom Grass provided by Mo Jiuli.
The appearance of the Phantom Grass immediately caused a sensation…
It was indeed precious, an item that almost every alchemist dreamed of obtaining!
As a result, the bidding price rose higher and higher, soon surpassing the amount Mo Jiuli had paid for the coffin…
And this was just the price from the second floor and below, the third floor hadn’t even started bidding yet!
Guyan was somewhat dumbfounded by this, while Mo Jiuli was extremely pleased…
With such a price, it meant that she had money again!
Naturally, Mo Jiuli’s mood was exceptionally joyful…
Meanwhile, in a private room at the corner of the third floor, a young man sat, with four old men in black clothes and masks standing behind him…
“Young Master, are you sure you’re not mistaken?
Is it truly the Nine Lives Pill?” one of the old men asked the young man.
“It can’t be wrong.
The aura and taste of the Nine Lives Pill are things I’ll never forget!
Even though it was just a moment ago, I’m certain that the elixir presented for auction on the fourth floor must be the Nine Lives Pill!” the young man said with a serious face.
“Young Master, shall we go up to the fourth floor and inquire?” another one of the old men suggested.
“Do you think that the sort of people who can sit on the fourth floor are ordinary folks?
If I’m not mistaken, the guests occupying the number one private room on the fourth floor are those who possess the purple token of the Underground Market!” the young man reasoned.
They had arrived somewhat late, so they were unaware that Mo Jiuli and her group had initially taken a seat on the second floor before moving up to the fourth floor…
“Young Master, what should we do then?
We’ve been searching for the Nine Lives Pill for a thousand years!
It was only after hearing that the Nine Lives Pill had been auctioned in the Underground Market of Hanlin City that we traveled thousands of miles to come here!
However, if the Nine Lives Pill comes up for auction later, I’m worried about the price…” the first old man to speak voiced his concerns.
“No matter, if it really comes up for auction, we must obtain it at any cost!
If it doesn’t end up being auctioned, we’ll devise another plan.
One way or another, I am determined to get the Nine Lives Pill!” the young man’s eyes flashed coldly.
“Fourth Elder, since you know the Invisibility Technique, why not sneak into the fourth floor to see who the person is, but be sure not to alarm them!
It’s best to make friends rather than enemies with someone capable of offering the Nine Lives Pill!”
“Yes, Young Master!” the last old man nodded in agreement upon hearing the order.
Without any visible movement, his figure faded away on the spot and disappeared before the eyes of the others.
Shortly afterward, the old man in black clothes reached the private room of Mo Jiuli while invisible, but after several attempts, he just couldn’t get in!
Ultimately, the old man could only turn back dejectedly to the third floor…
Seeing the old man return so quickly, they looked at him with some confusion, and the young man frowned and asked, “Fourth Elder, what happened?”
“Young Master, the private room on the fourth floor is inaccessible!” the old man replied helplessly.
“As expected of a private room owned by a purple token holder, it’s normal that it’s not easily penetrated.
Let’s wait and decide later!” the young man let go of his concerns and said.
“Yes, Young Master!” the old man nodded.
