Qingfeng Li frowned seeing these reputable forces take part in the competition for the Spirit Monarch Broken Diagram. It wasn’t a good thing if too many people were involved as the price would be raised to an outrageous level.
Qingfeng Li looked at the Second Prince on the side and noticed that he was still in excitement like a crazed worshipper.
Qingfeng Li sighed and smiled slightly, saying, “Second Prince, I think you’d better give up on bidding for the Spirit Monarch Broken Diagram.”
The Second Prince became disappointed hearing Qingfeng Li’s words. He treated Qingfeng Li as a friend and didn’t understand why the latter wouldn’t support him.
All th eself-cultivators knew what the Spirit Monarch Broken Diagram meant. It was the tomb of an ancient overlord of Mars, a master in the Spirit Monarch Realm. One could find monarch level techniques in this tomb.
Once getting the instruction, inspiration, as well as the legacy of a master in Spirit Monarch Realm, one could wield the power to compete for the position of overlord of the planet. Who wouldn’t want to rule a high-tier planet?
The man and the woman behind the Second Prince both looked coldly at Qingfeng Li, thinking he didn’t want to help the Crown Prince.
Qingfeng Li ignored these two powerful but dumb people, for they didn’t even consider the possibility for the Second Prince to win the extremely intense auction of the Spirit Monarch Broken Diagram.
Qingfeng Li sent out a slight beam of spirit energy and helped the Second Prince calm down.
Qingfeng Li smiled and asked, “Second Prince, please think over. The price of the Spirit Monarch Broken Diagram has reached 300 thousand emperor level vitality stones. The final price may get to a million. Do you really have that much?”
The Second Prince thought for a while and shook his head, “No, I don’t. But I can borrow from others.”
Qingfeng Li sighed and realized the Second Prince still didn’t figure out the key point and wanted to bid on the Spirit Monarch Broken Diagram.
If the Second Prince were not a friend, Qingfeng Li would definitely stand by and watch. But since the Second Prince treated him well, Qingfeng Li decided to help him out.
Qingfeng Li frowned and explained, “Second Prince, let’s assume you can get enough vitality stones to buy the Spirit Monarch Broken Diagram. With your current power, can you really keep it? Will Leng Xie of the Scorpion Assassin Alliance and Hai Wu of Martial Alliance let you go?”
The Second Prince was shocked when he realized what Qingfeng Li meant.
Although he was the second son of the King of Lingyun and had protection within the country, he was still no opponent for super forces like the Assassin Alliance and Martial Alliance.
Qingfeng Li saw the Second Prince was still hesitating and then said, “I can promise you. If you get the Spirit Monarch Broken Diagram, you will face assassinations and will live for no more than three days.”
“The Emperor of Lingyun can protect you from normal attempts. But if Leng Xie or the masters of other super forces personally took action, even the Emperor himself can’t help.”
The Second Prince was totally frightened by Qingfeng Li’s words, with sweat dripping from his forehead.
A man’s wealth could become his own ruin by causing other’s greed. He certainly knew this.
The Second Prince thought it over and realized Qingfeng Li was right. Even if he got the Spirit Monarch Broken Diagram, he would face assassinations. Other competitors like Leng Xie would not let him off.
He also realized the Spirit Monarch Broken Diagram was just a time bomb and could explode at any time.
After figuring all these out, the Second Prince sincerely thanked Qingfeng Li, “Thank you a lot for advising me not to bid on the Spirit Monarch Broken Diagram. I can never afford the consequences.”
Qingfeng Li nodded seeing the Second Prince understood his words. At least, the Second Prince was worthy to be taught.
Although the Second Prince quit bidding, the Spirit Monarch Broken Diagram attracted other super forces into the competition.
The first one was Lu Gu, the owner of the Planetary Elixir Pharmacy, and also a friend of Qingfeng Li, an emperor level class nine alchemist he met in the pharmacy.
Lu Gu was supported by Planetary Pavilion, the most powerful force of alchemy on the entire Crimson Fire Continent. With each elixir sold at a high price, these people were the richest on the mainland.
Lu Gu stood up and showed his wooden board, saying aloud, “I bid 400 thousand emperor level vitality stones.”
All the surrounding self-cultivators were shocked by his words. They didn’t expect Lu Gu to be this extravagant and to offer 400 thousand at his first bid. It was an amount they could never earn in their whole life.
Qingfeng Li took a look at Lu Gu and intended to persuade him not to bid on the Spirit Monarch Broken Diagram. But he backed off after noticing the force behind Lu Gu.
Qingfeng Li realized that Lu Gu wasn’t bidding for himself, but on behalf of the Planetary Elixir Pharmacy, the most powerful organization of alchemists on the Crimson Fire Continent.
The 400 thousand price Lu Gu offered was very high, but a middle-aged woman stood out at the next moment.
She was over 40 but was taken good care of; with a delicate face, snow-white skin, and a slender and graceful body, she looked charming in her white dress.
The beautiful middle-aged woman tossed her hair and said, “I bid 500 thousand.”
The surrounding self-cultivators started to discuss with shock in their eyes, “Who is this beautiful middle-aged woman? It’s incredible that she bade 500 thousand directly.”
“Are you blind? She is Yafei Chen, the pavilion master of the Spiritual Treasure Pavilion.”
“No wonder. She is the master of the Spiritual Treasure Pavilion and is backed up by the entire Spiritual Treasure Union. They produce most of the Spiritual treasures and weapons on the mainland. They certainly are very rich.”
“They are definitely in the top ten richest on the entire mainland. 500 thousand is a reasonable offer for them. ”
When the self-cultivators thought 500 thousand was the upper limit, someone else bade.
There were many super forces on Crimson Fire Continent, and many of them didn’t fear Yafei Chen.
