“Indeed, every capitalist’s blood is tainted.”


    A wave of contempt couldn’t help but surge within Jared’s heart!


    The individuals capable of running such an underground market and these kinds of auctions were


    surely driven by the pursuit of wealth!


    Since it was all for money, no method was off the table.


    Perhaps this was just human nature.


    “I’ll offer six million…”


    Someone else had raised their hand, offering a bid!


    This caused stair to slightly furrow his brow, experiencing a twinge in his heart.


    However, as he looked at the statue before him, stair could only raise his hand again and say, “I bid


    seven million…”


    This time, stair was gritting his teeth as he made his bid. If he wasn’t extremely fond of it, there was


    no way he would have continued to *raise the price!


    “I offer eight million…”


    The individual nced at stair, and then once again, he called out a higher bid!

    stair’s eyes were wide open in surprise. Just as he was about to raise his hand, he was abruptly


    pulled back by Jared!


    This time, Jared nearly dragged stair to the ground!


    Baffled, stair turned his gaze toward Jared. In a hushed voice, Jared said, “Stop bidding. The statue


    is fake…”


    “Fake?”


    stair was greatly surprised.


    However, his statement immediately attracted many nces. stair quickly lowered his voice and


    asked, “How did you know it was fake?”


    “Don’t worry about it, it’s all a sham anyway. Inside this statue, there’s a miniature array runes. Once


    spiritual energy is channeled into it, the array runes will activate, emitting a light simr to holy light,”


    Jared exined.


    Upon hearing this, stair looked at Jared with a skeptical expression. However, he didn’t *proceed to


    bid.


    Wilson watched stair quietly, as if waiting for him to make an offer. However, after waiting for a while


    and seeing that stair was not bidding, Wilson had no choice but to announce loudly, “Since no one


    else is bidding, this statue is sold for eight million!”


    However, after he had finished speaking, Wilson cast a rather piercing nce at Jared!


    It was quite clear that stair stopped bidding because of Jared.


    Wilson wasn’t upset because stair didn’t raise the price. Rather, he was a bit puzzled. How did


    Jared know that his statue was a fake without revealing any aura or using any spiritual sense to


    investigate?


    Could Jared figure it out just with his naked eye?


    Wilson had no clue at all that Jared had used Nethersky Eye to discern the statue’s authenticity.


    Following that, one precious item after another was brought forth-all sorts of odds and ends, from


    iplete cultivation techniques, and pills left behind by immortals, to celestial beast cores.


    However, after Jared scanned the items with his Nethersky Eye, he realized that most of it was a sham.


    There wasn’t a trace of the authentic ancient aura!


    However, numerous cultivators began to fervently bid andpete for it!


    Jared was also helpless. At that time, their aura was confined and, frankly, they were as good as blind.


    They couldn’t even spot a fake, let alone discern anything!


    Yet, Wilson had the audacity to im it was for safety reasons. It seemed this auction was nothing but


    a scam.


    Jared’s heart sank. If he had known things would turn out this way, he wouldn’t havee at all. He


    had wasted two million spiritual coins for nothing!


    Jared stood up, intending to leave. Staying here was nothing but a waste of time!


    “Ladies and gentlemen, the item I am about to present is a rare treasure of this world, one I believe


    none of you have everid eyes on before.”


    The words that Wilson spoke next made Jared, who was about to leave, halt in his tracks.


    Jared settled back into his seat, eager to examine whatever it was that no one had ever seen before.


    An employee was seen approaching, cradling a *wooden box in both hands.


    A red envelope was ced atop the wooden box. After carefully cing it down, the staff member then


    withdrew.


    Wilson, on the other hand, gently tugged at a corner of the red cloth, then said, “Ladies and gentlemen,


    keep your eyes wide open. I dare say none of you have ever seen such a treasure!”


    “Wilson, hurry up,” they urged, “Stop keeping us in suspense, we’re all on edge!” A cultivator cried out


    loudly.


    “All right!” Wilson eximed, and then he lifted the red cloth.


    Upon looking, it was clear that the wooden box was transparent. Inside the box, there was a skeletal


    arm.
