But, just at this moment.
Out of nowhere, three foreign men came forward and stood beside the man selling amber crystals. It was evident they were all in cahoots.
"Bell, what's wrong?" a tall foreign man looked at the man selling amber crystals and spoke up.
"This girl won't buy my amber crystal, and this person even slandered my crystal as worthless, it's really too much." Bell's face was full of anger, pointing at Lin Mo.
"How could our All Gods Alliance sell worthless amber crystals? You dare to slander us? No one is leaving here without paying a hundred top-grade spiritual stones."
The tall man in the lead said coldly.
"Is there any reason in this world?" The woman clenched her pale fists, trembling with anger.
Lin Mo sneered slightly, walked up to Bell, grabbed the amber crystal from his hand, and injected a strand of spiritual energy. Immediately, the amber crystal emitted a milky white color, but after a moment, the milky white glow disappeared, and the originally translucent crystal cracked with countless fissures.
"This kind of trickery is better not to be displayed." With that, Lin Mo closed his five fingers, and the crystal in his palm turned into fine powder, slowly scattering from between his fingers, drifting away in the wind.
"Is it really fake?" The woman blinked her bright eyes and angrily said, "You want to sell fake goods to me, and force me to buy them?"
Bell's face froze when he saw this, and he angrily yelled, "You actually crushed my crystal, no one is leaving here without paying a thousand top-grade spiritual stones!"
The eyes of the four foreign cultivators were viciously fixed on Lin Mo.
With that, the four people began to mobilize their energy, and the leader among them launched a punch towards Lin Mo, bringing with it a rolling Gang Wind, like a massive stone flying through the air.
Lin Mo squinted his eyes slightly, just about to teach them a lesson when suddenly, a streak of black energy shot from the side, sending the foreign man who attacked flying.
Lin Mo was also momentarily stunned, turned his head to see two foreign men in black robes walking towards him, and the one who struck was the slightly tall and thin man.
The three foreign cultivators' faces rapidly changed upon seeing these two appear, and they immediately bowed, saying, "Sir."
"Don't disgrace our All Gods Alliance here. Have you forgotten the island's rules? Initiators of fights will be punished."
The tall and thin man's voice was hoarse, slightly gloomy.
The three quickly helped the man who fell up and staggered away. Lin Mo looked at the tall and thin man in black robes, whose cultivation was at the late-stage Condensation, equal to that of Qionglong Taoist, while the other man, who had not spoken a word, had an even more imposing aura, although slightly restrained, Lin Mo with soul strength comparable to the Golden Core Stage could naturally see through the real cultivation, Early Sun Wheel Realm.
"Red Wolf, let's go, don't delay the main task."
The man who hadn't spoken seemed to glance at Lin Mo, and spoke up.
"Yes, sir."
With that, the two walked together side by side towards the front.
"Those two people are from the All Gods Alliance, they seem to have high status," Yingzi frowned slightly, saying softly.
"Hmm, the All Gods Alliance has been looking for Qionglong Taoist. Perhaps the auction won't be too peaceful this time."
Lin Mo pondered, Qionglong Taoist and the All Gods Alliance people are all here, there is a high likelihood of a confrontation.
But Lin Mo was surprised, logically speaking, the All Gods Alliance is one of the most top-tier Supreme Forces in Europe and America, yet they abide by the rules so strictly here on the island. It seems the force behind this advanced auction is even more formidable.
"Thank you guys, I'm Chen Ying, a Huaxia person."
The woman turned, her cool eyes looking at Lin Mo and Yingzi, smiling slightly.
"Lin Mo."
"Yingzi."
"You must be Huaxia people too, thank you for helping me just now, otherwise I'd have been deceived." Chen Ying said, blushing slightly, she was tempted by how cheap the amber crystal seemed and almost fell for the scam.
"You're welcome, people like that need a good lesson."
Yingzi waved her small fist and let out a soft hum.
"Anyway, thank you very much, how about I treat you to a meal? My master is there too, I'll introduce you."
Chen Ying hopefully suggested.
"Sure." Lin Mo nodded, agreeing directly.
The purchases were already made, now it was just a matter of waiting for the auction to start, and the island had some restaurants and taverns, of course, for cultivators, not eating for a month or two was fine, it really just provided a place for rest and socializing.
Lin Mo, Yingzi, followed by Chen Ying, headed towards the tavern on the south street together.
While chatting on the road, they learned that Chen Ying is a disciple of a Huaxia cultivation sect, called the Purple Cloud Sect. She came to this advanced auction following her master. Based on the information, the Purple Cloud Sect's strength seemed to be more advanced than the Red Moon Sect, Qingxuan Sect, and Wind Thunder Sect, being one of the Seven Great Sects within the Hidden Sect.
Just as Lin Mo and Yingzi left with Chen Ying, in the shop that previously sold the Eternal Life Elixir.
"Impossible, impossible how did that young man manage to improve my already refined Eternal Life Elixir?" Zhuge Huai was pacing in the alchemy room, blowing his beard and glaring.
"Hmm, there is still a trace of coldness in this alchemy room, did he use some kind of natural cold flame?"
Zhuge Huai pursed his lips, still unable to let go, "Me, a dignified Alchemy Elder from the Medicine Sect, actually lost to a young man? Where would my reputation go if this got out?"
"Seventh Grandpa, what's causing you to be so upset here?"
Suddenly, a clear, pleasant voice came from outside the alchemy room, like ripples in the wind, comforting, even before seeing the person, it was already known that the speaker was a beautiful woman.
"Qingyang, why are you wandering around in my old place?" Zhuge Huai pursed his lips, yet his face showed a rare appreciative expression.
At the door stood a long-haired flowing woman, her ink-black hair reaching her waist, swaying in the wind, wearing a red and white traditional Han Chinese attire, with soft-soled white shoes, extraordinarily beautiful, perfectly aligning with the essence described in Poetry.
As for her face, it was shaped like a goose egg, her skin as white as snow-jade, delicate as if it could be broken by touch, eyes bright and lively, a delicate nose, lips slightly pursed, with an irresistible charm.
"I wanted to see you, Seventh Grandpa, is that not allowed?" The woman giggled.
"Of course you can, you young lady."
Zhuge Huai chuckled happily.
"I brought you Phoenix Fruit Wine, I know you love this flavor," Liu Qingyang slightly tilted her head, shaking the bottle of fruit wine in her hand.
"Tsk tsk, still a little girl who cares for an old man." Zhuge Huai's eyes widened immediately.
