Chapter 502 Puppet
The night after tomorrow.
A humanoid creature left the inn and drifted towards Chiyang District.
Its feet do not touch the ground when it moves, and coupled with the light characteristics around its edges, people can tell that it is a soul at a glance.
Jiuyang City does not allow high-altitude flying, but it is naturally allowed for any monk whose soul leaves the body and floats close to the ground.
But his body exudes a faint demonic aura, and there are white lines on his face. It is obvious that he is a demon incarnation.
This is not a strange thing. There are many monsters in Jiuyang City.
In the territory of Daqi, there are naturally demon clan forces, and there are even first-class demon clan forces that are comparable to Tianlongmen.
It goes without saying much about the nature of these demon clans that thrive and develop within the territory of the human race.
Like the Lingyang Lake Aquatic Tribe, they are not human beings.
Therefore, if the demon clan appears in a place like Jiuyang City, people will take a few more glances. Otherwise, there will be no problem.
This transformed demon clan flew all the way to Chiyang District, outside the Nine Sun Alliance headquarters.
Originally, Chiyang District is not a district in Jiuyang City that specializes in trading, but the Jiuyang auction is special and will only be held at the Jiuyang Alliance headquarters, so it has always been like this.
The Jiuyang Alliance headquarters here is quite majestic, with a total of nine floors and an extremely wide area.
“This place is very big, Master.”
An Lang's voice rang in the ears of the transformed demon clan.
This transformed monster is naturally Zhou Qing who came to participate in the Jiuyang auction.
Who would be a serious person to participate in an auction with his true face?
Not only will Zhou Qing not come with his true identity, but his race has changed and he will not come here as a human being.
In this way, everything that may arise from this auction has nothing to do with the human race Zhou Qing.
Zhou Qing has a lot of things related to the demon clan in his body, and there are many categories. Now he can use any of them as a medium to transform, and he can hide from the outside world.
“It’s very big.”
Zhou Qing looked at the Nine Sun Alliance. Although it was already night, the lights here were bright and extremely bright.
And the light here is very soft and will not cause harm to some shady creatures.
At this time, many people have entered the Jiuyang Alliance, and there is a steady stream of people coming from behind, making it very lively.
In the past two days, he did not stay in the inn all the time. He also walked around Jiuyang City to see if he could find anything good.
Maybe there is a dusty pearl, a hidden treasure waiting for him?
Even if not, there are some specialties of this place in Jiuyang City, which are relatively useful.
At the same time, he also found out more about the Jiuyang Auction, and gained a more intuitive understanding of this event.
Day-traveling monks, bone-refining warriors and practitioners above can directly get an invitation from the Nine Suns Alliance and be invited to participate in the auction.
If someone like Zhou Qing stayed in the inn openly, someone would naturally send the invitation.
If you have no fixed address and have not received an invitation, you can participate directly when the auction starts.
It just lacks some sense of ceremony.
But the Nine Yang Alliance does not mean that it will refuse the practitioners under the Riyou Bone Refining to participate in the auction.
If you are not strong enough, you can come to Jiuyang Alliance in advance to show your financial strength before the auction starts.
If you meet the requirements, you will also be eligible to participate in the auction.
Jiuyang Alliance claims that even if you are a mortal, as long as you are rich enough, you can participate in the auction. Who can have trouble with money?
In addition, the Jiuyang Alliance will specially invite some forces to participate.
In this way, every Jiuyang auction is quite lively, with a large number of people participating.
Especially since this auction is a ten-year-old auction, it is even more impressive.
Zhou Qing followed the flow of people and walked into the Jiuyang Alliance. There were several very obvious reception points that could be seen at a glance.
Zhou Qing walked over, took out the invitation and handed it to the person from the Nine Yang Alliance. Although this person worked at the reception point, his cultivation level was really not weak and he was in the Holy Realm.
The invitation is not registered, and anyone who gets it can come, so Zhou Qing is not worried about exposing his identity because of the invitation issue.
The receptionist looked at Zhou Qing and then handed him a wooden sign.
"This guest, please go and take a seat in Area B on the seventh floor."
Zhou Qing nodded and went directly to the seventh floor.
The Jiuyang Alliance has regulations that the one-year auction will be on the sixth floor, the ten-year auction will be on the eighth floor, and so on.
In fact, there is some information on that wooden sign, guiding the location of the auction.
Going up to the seventh floor, there is a very huge space inside, with a high platform in the middle, which is obviously where the items will be auctioned.
There are densely packed seats in front of the high platform, left and right.
At the rear is a passage for people to pass through, but this must be the internal passage of the Nine Sun Alliance.
In addition to the three-sided seats that are lower than the high platform, there are two layers of wooden boards above, which are not low.
Zhou Qing made a visual inspection and found that the seventh floor alone was about eight feet high. This is why An Lang praised how big this place is outside.
Because it is really big, no worse than some high-rise buildings in Zhou Qing's previous life.
The upper two floors are covered in all four directions. The difference is that the middle floor is also a public seat, while the top floor has private rooms, and each room has a window. .
Auctions are an old tradition.
All the Wanxing Fair has private rooms, but at the Jiuyang Auction, only the group of people with the most powerful status or the most advanced backgrounds can sit in the private rooms.
Zhou Qing was not surprised by this either.
On the middle floor, eye-catching signs are hung in each direction, namely A, B, C and D. The second floor is divided into four areas.
As for the bottom level, there is no such division of areas, just numbers marked on the seats.
Zhou Qing's location is in Area B, to the left of the high platform. Area A is directly opposite the high platform, which is considered the place with the best view.
He went up to the second floor and found a place to sit down in Area B.
Unlike the densely packed seats below, there are certain intervals between each seat on the second floor, and there is a small table next to it, so the conditions are relatively better.
This is how the gap emerged.
There is also a number engraved on Zhou Qing’s seat, thirteen.
If he bids the price later, it will be in the name of Yi Shisan.
Such a regional division is naturally meaningful.
Zhou Qing observed the surroundings and saw that many people were already sitting in their seats.
The people in Area A are all experts at the level of manifesting the Holy Spirit and purifying the marrow. They occupy the area with the best view on the second floor.
District B where Zhou Qing is located is for practitioners in the late stages of daily travel, as well as perfection, bone refining, and ultimate levels.
The two areas Bing and Ding respectively correspond to the middle and early stages of the day trip, the minor bone refining, and the first entry.
Compared to the Bone Refining Realm in day tours, the number of Marrow Revealing Saints is very small, so one area is enough.
The people on the bottom level are naturally not as good as those in the Bone Refining Realm, and their treatment is the worst.
It is obvious who can enter the box above Zhou Qing's head.
The Manifest Holy Marrow Realm is indeed very strong outside and has a good status, but in this Jiuyang City, it is still a ten-year auction, and there are obviously more powerful people coming.
Some people are not strong but have amazing backgrounds and can still go up.
This is the difference in strength and status. Such differential treatment exists everywhere, but everyone has become accustomed to it.
And Zhou Qing is just an ordinary day-traveling monster here, and it is obviously impossible to be treated specially.
He had no problem with sitting in Area B on the second floor.
It’s just a seat. Where can I sit if I’m not participating in the auction?
The items purchased on the bottom floor are the same as those purchased by people in the private rooms, and there will be no discounts.
If you make a scene just because of a seat, there is a high probability that you will be thrown out of the Jiuyang Alliance.
"Sitting here is so exposed."
An Lang whispered to Zhou Qing and said:
"In this case, if you want to buy something later, Can’t everyone see you?”
"At this point, I think this Jiuyang Auction is not as good as the Wanxing Chamber of Commerce."
Zhou Qing smiled and replied:
"You don't like this model, but there are On the contrary, people like to show up and let everyone know their actions. ”
“After the Wanxing Chamber of Commerce promoted the trade fair model, it makes sense that this kind of auction can still be passed down.”
As time goes by, the middle and lower floors. More and more people were sitting on the seats, making the place gradually become lively.
As for what's going on in the top box, Zhou Qing doesn't know.
The box has a Taoist technique that isolates the senses from detection.
When there were more people, there were more topics for communication. Zhou Qing caught a few key words from some people's words, and his heart moved, so he listened carefully.
"Have you heard that a Yin God-level sky fire appeared in the Antiankeng in Anyang Ruins, attracting many venerables."
"Oh? I just did it today. Coming out of Chiyang Ruins, I don’t know about this, please elaborate.”
"That's it...understand?"
"Which venerable person got that heavenly fire?"
"None of those venerable people got the heavenly fire, but was possessed by a manifested saint. The fish demon in the world has been plucked "Peach." "The fish monster in the Xian Sheng Realm can steal food from the tiger's mouth?"
"You're right, it's the aquarium of Lingyang Lake!"
"I heard that the two venerables who went to fight for the Sky Fire in Lingyang Lake were finally besieged and escaped with serious injuries."
"Hiss, that must have been done by people from Lingyang Lake, otherwise how could others do this? Offend Lingyang Lake."
"..."
There is more than one person talking about Dark Sky Pit Sky Fire.
The birth of a heavy treasure is already eye-catching, not to mention that the final whereabouts of this treasure are so bizarre, which makes it even more popular.
Who doesn’t like to hear stories about the weak taking treasures from the strong?
Because it is so immersive.
Zhou Qing listened to the exchanges between some people, his face expressionless, but he kept laughing in his heart.
I didn’t expect that because of his last words, the two sages in Lingyang Lake suffered a lot and were seriously injured.
I don’t know who did it, it was so brutal.
Zhou Qing guessed that it was a wild beast, or a force that could not deal with Lingyang Lake.
But no matter who it was, doing such a thing made Zhou Qing very happy.
At this point, it is no longer important whether the matter of Sky Fire is related to the aquarium of Lingyang Lake or not.
Once this kind of thing spreads, even if it's not you Lingyang Lake, you can't explain it clearly.
Everyone says this, is it possible that it is still false?
"The fish demon that snatched the sky fire from all the venerables? It's strange to say that that day I saw a fish demon being chased by the four-color ruin spirits in Qingyang Ruins. The fish demon's escape skills are particularly magical. I don't know if that's the case. The same one?"
"I heard about it too, that one..."
Lian Zhou Qing was chased by the four-color Xu Ling and was widely spread. Know.
A lot of people are actually interested in that fish monster now.
Able to hide perfectly under the noses of the venerables, and also escape from the hands of the venerables and the four-color ruin spirits.
This performance is somewhat astonishing.
Although no one knows what race the fish demon is, there is no doubt that the blood of the fish demon must be powerful and special.
Is there such a genius in Lingyang Lake?
Sure enough, the foundation is profound!
Zhou Qing listened to these people's discussion without changing his expression, secretly thinking that Kun's clone was now in Jiuyang City and could be said to have become famous in one fell swoop.
I don’t know how many people are interested in the Kun clone. Fortunately, I came to the auction this time and didn’t bring the Kun clone with me.
Not taking the Kun clone was Zhou Qing’s intention.
I don’t know how many masters will appear here. If Kun’s clone is allowed to shrink and follow, there is a possibility of being discovered.
Once discovered, the consequences will be very serious. Those Venerables who were robbed of Sky Fire, especially Lingyang Lake who was tricked by him, will jump out immediately.
Even escaping is not safe.
Who knows if there will be an expert from the Underworld Realm taking charge of this Jiuyang auction?
Zhou Qing is not sure whether Dunkong can hide from a master of this level.
The underworld monks enter the underworld from the human world and then return. They must also absorb the power of the underworld for daily practice, which must involve changes in space.
Zhou Qing has never come into contact with the Huangquan monks and does not know whether they have come into contact with or mastered the power of space, but he thinks it is better to be cautious.
Anyway, there is no danger in attending the auction. It doesn’t matter whether Kun’s clone comes or not.
If someone really wants to take action at the auction, then the Jiuyang Alliance can be disbanded.
Not long after, someone sat down next to Zhou Qing. He turned around and saw that he was also a demon clan, and his cultivation level was higher than his. He had already reached perfection.
Seeing him look over, the demon clan nodded to him, and Zhou Qing responded in the same way.
I saw a demon tribe like myself sitting here, so I came here to find a companion...
Although the demon tribe is not excluded in Jiuyang City, there is no doubt that it is still occupied by the human race. most.
If the demon race makes up the majority in the human city, then that's okay. This is not a mountain or sea area.
As time passed, the middle and lower floors were already dark and full of people.
Then the lights changed, the surroundings became slightly darker, and the high platform in the middle became brighter and eye-catching.
An old man walked out of the back passage with a kind face and bright eyes.
“Everyone, I am Chi Yang, the host of this Jiuyang auction.”
As soon as Chi Yang spoke, the scene immediately fell silent, and no one made any more noise.
Zhou Qing looked at the old man and secretly said "strong man".
This is a venerable person who is famous in Jiuyang City.
There are nine venerables in the Jiuyang Alliance, named after each of the Jiuyang Ruins. This Chiyang venerable is one of them.
Of course, the Nine Suns Alliance was jointly established by forces such as Lingyang Lake, so even though there are a lot of nine sages, most of them came from various forces to preside over the Nine Suns Alliance. various matters.
Once the term is up, they will directly return to their own power and replace them with others.
There are only a few venerables who were cultivated within the Nine Yang Alliance, and Venerable Chiyang is one of them.
There are so many experts here, and it has to be hosted by a venerable person himself to keep the place under control.
Venerable Chiyang said a few more nice words, and then announced:
"This Jiuyang auction has officially begun. I hope all guests can gain something."< br>
Then Venerable Chiyang took out a treasure from the special space bag for auction items on his waist and said:
"The first auction item is a puppet comparable to the true blood realm!"
As soon as he said this, he looked at the tall iron guy next to Lord Chiyang, and there was a slight commotion in the auction house.
A puppet comparable to the true blood realm?
This is too expensive!
Are you willing to put something like Jiuyang Alliance up for auction? Isn’t it good to use it yourself?
Zhou Qing also looked at the puppet carefully and was very surprised.
If he could have such a puppet...
Forget it, I still don’t want to.
He certainly can’t afford it.
It's not like Zhou Qing didn't have anything more valuable than the True Blood Puppet, but if he exchanged those things for this puppet, wasn't there something wrong with his brain?
Besides, even if he could afford this puppet, he wouldn't do it.
If you can afford it, you may not be able to keep it.
“Fellow Taoist Chiyang, this puppet should have something to say, right?” At this time, a voice came from the second box.
“Otherwise, the Jiuyang Alliance may not be willing to auction it.”
"This voice... is Shi Duguan from the Junding Military Division."
A marrow washing master said this to a friend next to him, and then everyone on the second floor basically knew the person in the second box identity.
A strange look flashed in Zhou Qing's eyes. It can be predicted that if someone competes with Box 2 later, they will definitely have concerns because of the other party's identity.
This is something that is impossible to happen at the Wanxing Fair.
“Your distinguished guest has a clear warning.”
Venerable Chiyang smiled and said:
“This puppet was obtained by our Nine Sun Alliance from the Dark Sun Ruins. It is indeed comparable to the True Blood Realm, but it is now in a mutilated state. The puppet The core is damaged.”
“But we, the Nine Suns Alliance, have figured out a way to repair the puppet. This method requires a material called Golden Touch, which the Nine Suns Alliance has not found.”
“Every guest comes from all over the world, and maybe you have heard of the Midas Touch. If you buy this puppet, and then find the Midas Touch, you can get a complete true-blood combat power. It is definitely a deal. A worthwhile deal."
"If any customer buys this puppet, the Jiuyang Alliance will provide it for free!"
The guests on the upper, middle and lower floors were all talking in low voices, finally understanding why the Nine Yang Alliance was willing to bring out a true blood puppet.
It turned out to be broken, and it was something they couldn't fix.
But this does not mean that this puppet has no value. On the contrary, since it can be repaired, the value of this puppet is quite high.
No matter how precious the Midas Touch is, there is no way that a complete True Blood Puppet is as valuable. Otherwise, the Jiuyang Alliance auction is a fraud.
As for how to repair the puppet...
The Jiuyang Alliance can figure this thing out, and so can the big forces. It can't be sold without giving it away for free.
A true blood puppet is sometimes more meaningful than a true blood warrior.
In terms of the time it has existed, the puppet will beat the true blood warrior.
People's hearts are floating, and most people are greedy for this puppet, including Zhou Qing.
He had never heard of the Midas Touch.
But he believed that there must be records in Xuandu Temple.
Unfortunately, this puppet does not belong to him.
Giving everyone enough time to react, Venerable Chiyang said with a smile:
“There is no reserve price for this lot, and the bidding begins!”
As soon as the words were said, there was a There is a battle between dragons and tigers, and prices rise and fall one after another.
Zhou Qing watched and then sighed.
What a waste of money.
