The Urban Medical Martial Immortal

581: Chapter 577: Soul Suppressing Whip 581: Chapter 577: Soul Suppressing Whip At the temporary auction venue deep within the Natural Corner Hotel’s first floor.

At this moment, apart from Young Master Mengg who had raised his bidding card, everyone else had fallen silent.

The pitch-black stone held little interest for most people present.

With Mengg Hao making a move, no one else dared to mess around.

The woman hosting the auction seemed to have anticipated this, showing no sign of surprise.

She scanned the room and said with a smile, “Is there anyone willing to bid higher?

Even if this stone has no other uses, it would make a fine art piece for a collection!”

No one responded.

The woman hesitated slightly, expressing regret, “Since there is no higher bid, then the stone will go to Young Master Mengg…”

As she was about to bring down her auction gavel,

“I bid one million!”

A voice came from the back of the auction hall.

Was there actually someone daring to bid?

The audience, surprised, looked back.

When they saw that it was Lin Tian who made the bid, many changed expressions and swiftly turned away.

At the front sat Zheng Han and a group of bigwigs, all revealing wry smiles.

“Quite interesting!”

Seeing the crowd’s reaction, Mengg Hao’s mouth twitched into a meaningful smile.

He turned to glance at Lin Tian and bid again, “Five million!”

“Ten million!”

Lin Tian ignored Mengg Hao, his gaze burning as he stared at the Soul Suppressing Stone on the auction stage.

He absolutely had to have it,

even if it meant dumping the several hundred million in his bank account.

Most of that money had been won at an underground antique exchange in Bin City.

“Fifty million!”

Mengg Hao’s eyes chilled slightly, the smile on his face gradually fading as he said coldly.

Fifty million?

Around the hall, many gasped in shock.

They couldn’t fathom why anyone would pay fifty million for a mere stone, and many felt Lin Tian was foolish to offend Mengg Hao over a rock.

“Mengg Hao is actually willing to spend fifty million; he really must be determined to get this stone!

I think the young man should stop competing…”

Someone spoke in a low voice, sighing and shaking their head.

The others sitting nearby nodded in agreement.

The murmurs died down.

Not hearing another bid, Mengg Hao thought Lin Tian would stop bidding and was about to look away.

But, Lin Tian raised his sign again, saying coldly, “One hundred million!”

This bid plunged the hall into instant silence.

After a moment,

there came an uproar.

“One hundred million?

Did I hear that right?”

“Does this stone have some extraordinary secret?”

“Can’t be!

If it was put up for auction, it must have been thoroughly verified!

If it really was a treasure, how could it start at just one hundred thousand?”

“Could it be that they both have seen through some mystery of this stone?”

At this point, many could not help but start speculating.

An auction price of one hundred million was indeed a sky-high figure.

If it were some other treasure, it might justify such a price, which would be understandable.

It was just.

In front of him was clearly just a black stone, even if it had come from an ancient coffin.

On the other side, Mengg Hao also stood there, stunned for quite a while.

“Sister apprentice, do you recognize this person?

His reaction just now seemed a bit unusual!”

Mengg Hao turned his head to look at Qian Xiaohui with a frown.

Qian Xiaohui’s indifferent eyes lifted slightly, and she glanced at Lin Tian, her brows lightly furrowed.

After a while, she said, “I’ve never seen him before!”

“Then, sister apprentice, you go ahead and leave tonight, take back what you got for master to examine!

I’ll handle the rest.”

Mengg Hao said in a low voice to Qian Xiaohui, then turned back to Lin Tian, “I’ll let you have it.”

Lin Tian simply gave the other party a faint glance, then turned his gaze back to the auction stage, his eyes eager.

As the gavel fell, a hint of a smile appeared on Lin Tian’s face.

The auction continued below, but Lin Tian essentially ignored the subsequent items.

Soon after, with the end of the auction, the banquet also drew to a close.

Lin Tian did not stay any longer.

After exchanging a few pleasantries with Zheng Han and others, and bidding farewell to Shangguan Xin and others, he left the hotel with Changsun Zihui.

“I’ve changed locations, take me there!”

Once in Changsun Zihui’s car, Lin Tian unceremoniously asked her to take him back to that suburban hotel, while also saying, “I might need to stay a few more days.

Why don’t you go back to Liiu Yuan City first, and I’ll give you a call when I get there!”

“I’ll wait for you!

It just so happens that I also have some matters to deal with here!

We can go to Liiu Yuan City together later!”

Changsun Zihui smiled charmingly, batting her beautiful eyes, “But…

hehe, Lin Tian, sister is becoming more and more curious about your identity and background!

I don’t believe you’re from some rural area…

who are you trying to fool!”

“My home is indeed in the countryside, at least for now!”

Lin Tian shrugged his shoulders, without much explanation, changing the subject, “What matters do you have by staying here?

If you don’t have anything important to do now, then please hurry and help me look for that Ancient Map Fragment and investigate Qian Xiaohui and the Herbal Medicine.

The Ancient Map is especially important to me!”

Listening to Lin Tian’s repeated emphasis, Changsun Zihui nodded and said, “My younger sister has run off to play and now she can’t be found.

I have to locate her.

That girl has never given anyone peace of mind, I’m afraid she might do something crazy again…”

Changsun Shuzhen?

Most likely her then!

That girl is crazy enough!

Lin Tian silently sneered to himself but did not voice his connection with Changsun Shuzhen.

Returning to the hotel, after parting ways with Changsun Zihui, Lin Tian headed back to his own room.

“Soul Suppressing Stone, extremely difficult to cut and refine; even with Samadhi True Fire, it would take several days and nights to melt!”

Lin Tian sat down cross-legged in his room, took out the Soul Suppressing Stone the size of half a palm, and his eyes glowed hotly, “However, now that it’s come into my possession, with ‘Evil like Xiaotian’ in my hands, I can easily cut open the stone and refine the soul heart within.

As long as the refinement is successful and it is combined with the Dragon whisker, both the speed and the power of the crafted Magical Treasure will increase manifold.

It’s said that the Magical Treasure made from the Soul Suppressing Stone restrains the mighty Physique of the Dragon Clan!

Whether this is true or not…”

Murmuring to himself, Lin Tian took out the Dragon whisker he had, produced the Samadhi True Fire, and began the refining process.

He planned to fuse the Soul Suppressing Stone into the Dragon whisker to craft a Magical Treasure.

Carrying it with him in the future would benefit both for nourishing the soul and spirit as well as to Attack enemies.

In this crafting process, Lin Tian found that with the Soul Suppressing Stone, the Dragon whisker effortlessly succeeded in engraving various Array Patterns, making each step of the crafting a breeze.

“Soul Suppressing Stone, indeed a bane to the Dragon Body; these words are true!”

Joy filled Lin Tian’s face as the Samadhi True Fire in his hand grew even more vigorous.

Meanwhile, his other hand controlled True Qi to carve one after another intricate rhyme of mystic Array Patterns.

The refining went on until late into the night, and only then did Lin Tian finally get up from his work.

At that moment.

A two-meter-long Long Whip, less than half the size of his little finger and jet black and shining all over, appeared in his hand.

And at the end of the Long Whip, there was a bright, white-glowing orb, like Jade, slowly rotating.

That was the Soul Suppressing Stone merged into the Dragon whisker.

“Whip-type Magical Treasure!

Although it doesn’t have the range of a Flying Sword, it makes up for it with its flexibility, catching opponents off guard!

Plus, with the Soul Suppressing Stone infused within it, at times, it proves even more useful than ‘Evil like Xiaotian’!”

Lin Tian flicked his wrist, his True Qi surged like a rainbow, filling the Long Whip.

With a loud hum, it exploded violently mid-air, making the Void appear twisted.

Pleased with such an Attack effect, Lin Tian smiled to himself and said, “This Magical Treasure shall be named—the Soul Suppressing Whip!”

Immediately, he flicked his wrist, and with a flash of white light, the Soul Suppressing Whip transformed into a delicate Jade belt and wrapped around the belt on his waist.

But at that moment, Lin Tian’s expression changed, and he looked coldly towards the outside.

Then he turned around, opened the door, and walked out.
