Super Strong Little Divine Farmer

Chapter 1660: Chapter 1661: Contest for the Corpse

The crowd turned toward the voice; it was Ghost Hand who had spoken.

The Ghost Realm specializes in corpse puppeteering, so it’s no surprise he’s interested in this mummified corpse.

Lin Chen’s eyes narrowed slightly. This guy is interested in the corpse too, seems like it will be difficult to get it.

Li Ling’er frowned at Ghost Hand’s words and said, ”Young Master Ghost Hand, even if you’re interested in this corpse, you need to follow the rules. Moreover, this ancient corpse is very difficult to control.”

Upon hearing Li Ling’er’s words, whispers spread among the crowd.

After all, if it can’t be controlled, buying this corpse would be useless.

Ghost Hand furrowed his brows slightly at Li Ling’er’s words, but his gaze lingered on the corpse, with a gut feeling that this ancient corpse was no ordinary item.

Li Ling’er looked at everyone with a faint smile and said, ”The starting price for this corpse is three million.”

”Three million?” Hearing this price, many who were interested in the corpse began to reconsider.

After all, there are few who have the ability to make corpse puppets, and most importantly, as Li Ling’er just mentioned, the corpse is very difficult to control.

So buying it is a gamble, and if you lose, you will lose everything.

Amidst the murmuring of the crowd, a voice suddenly rang out: ”Three million five hundred thousand.”

It was none other than Ghost Hand who made this bid.

Clearly, despite the high price, Ghost Hand had not given up.

As Ghost Hand placed his bid, others followed suit, and the price was finally raised to five million by Ghost Hand, with no further offers.

After all, five million spirit stones are no small amount, and nobody wanted to take such a big risk.

”Five million going once, five million going twice.” Li Ling’er raised a small hammer, just about to lower it.

”Six million!”

At that moment, an unexpected bid rang out.

”Five million!” When this bid was heard, everyone was stunned.

Bear in mind that a bid of five million was already beyond most people’s capacity; six million was simply outrageous.

Ghost Hand glared at Lin Chen with a cold gaze, a hint of viciousness flashing in his eyes.

”Kid, are you trying to go against me?” Ghost Hand stared grimly at Lin Chen.

The others turned their gazes to Lin Chen, eager to know who had the guts to challenge Ghost Hand.

Under Ghost Hand’s chilly gaze, Lin Chen simply smiled faintly: ”I happen to need this corpse, you’re overthinking it.”

”Six million five hundred thousand.” Ghost Hand continued his bid.

”Seven million.” Lin Chen remained calm, regardless of the cost, he was determined to obtain this corpse.

”Dammit.” Ghost Hand’s expression shifted slightly at Lin Chen’s bid.

Seven million was beyond his limit.

”Eight million.” Ghost Hand gritted his teeth and continued.

Lin Chen’s eyes turned serious at Ghost Hand’s words.

Everyone was bewildered at this point. These two men’s bids were completely beyond their imagination.

Even if the corpse could be controlled, it was hard to justify such a high price.

”Eight million five hundred thousand.” Lin Chen said solemnly.

Seeing Lin Chen fiercely competing with Ghost Hand for the corpse, Li Ling’er furrowed her brows slightly.

Based on her impression, Lin Chen seemed like a stable person and should not act so impulsively.

With Lin Chen’s recent purchases of Spiritual Medicine and this corpse in mind, Li Ling’er had an epiphany.

Could it be that this guy really intends to resurrect someone?

Thinking of this, Li Ling’er’s expression grew more solemn, and her gaze toward Lin Chen carried a hint of awe.

After all, infusing a soul into a body is no easy feat.

In her memory, only one person in the Immortal Realm could do that—the master of Medicine Mountain, the Medicine King.

Could this young man be associated with the Medicine King?

While Li Ling’er was lost in thought, Lin Chen’s bid had already reached ten million.

Now Lin Chen was feeling a bit tense, as the money he had left was running low.

Now it was a matter of endurance between him and Ghost Hand, to see who would buckle first.

”Young master, we can’t bid any higher. Don’t forget our mission this time.” A nearby elder said sternly.

Upon hearing the elder, Ghost Hand took a deep breath with an unwilling look in his eyes but finally sat down dejectedly.

”Young master, don’t worry. After the auction ends, we’ll find a secluded place to take care of this kid, then the corpse will be ours.” The elder said with a cold laugh.

Hearing the elder, a treacherous gleam flashed in Ghost Hand’s eyes: ”Hmm, the Second Elder is right. Let someone else pay for us, why not?”

Ghost Hand ceased bidding, and Lin Chen successfully acquired the corpse.

Though Lin Chen paid a hefty price, if he could restore Feng Jiu’s true form, he would have a high-ranking God Realm ally, something money couldn’t buy.

At this moment, Lin Chen became the center of everyone’s attention, even major forces turned their gazes toward him.

They all wanted to know what kind of power this unexpected young man had behind him, given that not everyone could so casually produce ten million spirit stones.

The auction continued, with several good items coming up, but Lin Chen, now low on funds, could only watch.

Here, Feng Jiu was the only truly excited one.

Knowing that Lin Chen was hurting from the expenditure, this fellow was still egging him on: ”Lin Chen, don’t worry. Once I restore my True God form, ten million spirit stones, maybe even a billion, will be nothing.”

Finally, it was time for Lin Chen’s targeted Immortal God Pill.

Li Ling’er held the pill bottle with a gentle smile: ”Many here have the strength of a God Realm expert, right? In my hand, this jade bottle contains five much-coveted Immortal God Pills, and I can assure you, upon our verification, the pills in this bottle are all of the finest quality.”

”Top-quality Immortal God Pills!” Hearing Li Ling’er’s words, everyone was taken aback.

Especially some noble families, their eyes burned at the sight of that pill bottle.

”The opening bid for this pill is three million.” Li Ling’er said with a smile.

”I’ll bid five million.” No sooner had Li Ling’er finished than someone eagerly placed a bid.

”Eight million!”

”Ten million!”

...

Bids came in one after another.

Finally, this bottle of Immortal God Pills was won by Zhou Yu from the Celestial Palace for twenty-five million.

For Lin Chen, this price was very satisfactory, even beyond his expectations.

Seeing his Immortal God Pills auctioned off, Lin Chen felt much more relaxed, as he was now almost out of money, adopting an outsider’s perspective on the auction.

The auction, under Li Ling’er’s lead, grew increasingly lively.

Finally, the auction neared its end, and everyone’s excitement began to peak.

Because everyone knew that the finale of the auction was about to appear.
