Chapter 563 The auction begins
Two months have passed.
Longqingfang City, in a certain cave.
Lin Tianming and his wife sat opposite each other, looking directly at each other, with a smile flashing across their faces.
At this time, Lin Tianming chuckled and said: "Xi'er, the auction is about to begin, let's go out and experience it!"
"Hmm..."
Qin Xi nodded and continued: "Xi'er is also looking forward to an auction of this size at Jindan Field, but she just doesn't know if there will be any opportunities worth taking action."
Hearing this, Lin Tianming smiled lightly, and then said: "This gold elixir auction is only held once in fifty years!"
"You need to know Dao, the Golden Crow Kingdom has three major Jindan sects and four major Jindan families, with seven major Jindan forces, and these forces have more than 40 Jindan monks in total. Many. "
"In addition, in the Jinwu Kingdom's immortal cultivation world, it is not just these forces that have Jindan cultivators. It is said that there are even several Jindan cultivators."
"With such overall strength, the size of this golden elixir auction must be quite large. Although the probability of good things appearing is not high, it must be much higher than that of Wei Guo's auction."
Lin Tianming sighed continuously, his expression also very solemn.
In fact, in his heart, he initially thought that although the Golden Crow Kingdom was stronger than the Wei Kingdom, its strength was very limited.
However, after hearing Tang Xiuping's specific information, he also knew a lot about the situation in the Golden Crow Kingdom.
Especially the overall strength of the Golden Crow Kingdom once surprised him.
After all, the Golden Crow Kingdom is indeed very powerful, with more than forty Golden Core Stage monks, almost twice as many as the Wei Kingdom today.
Even when the Wei Kingdom was at its peak, it was far inferior to the current Golden Crow Kingdom.
From this point of view, the Golden Crow Country is worthy of being one of the few powerful countries among the dozen or so countries around it.
Because he understood this, Lin Tianming was also looking forward to this golden elixir auction.
So, the couple chatted for a while, then walked out of the cave together and walked towards the auction house in the center of Fang City.
Walking on the wide street, there was a bustle of pedestrians, most of whom were walking towards the center of the city.
Among these people, the proportion of foundation-building monks is not low, and there are also many monks after foundation-building.
Such a scene also reflects the popularity of Longqingfang City.
Lin Tianming and his two men followed the crowd unhurriedly, looking around at the surrounding scene along the way.
Soon, they arrived at the auction house in the center of Fangshi.
Looking around, the Qi Refining monks entering here have already formed a long queue, and even the queue at the foundation building field is also quite far away.
When Lin Tianming saw such a scene, he couldn't help but sigh in his heart.
“This Longqingfang City is indeed very popular. There are many people coming to participate in the auction, and there are also a few foundation-building monks with some strength among them.”
No wonder in the rumors, all It seems that it is not false at all to say that Longqingfang City is the largest city in Jinwu Kingdom. "
Lin Tianming sighed secretly in his heart, and his steps did not stop at all.
When the couple crossed the team at the foundation building site, they appeared directly in front of an entrance.
Here, there are also monks waiting. It seems that they are all wearing yellow robes, and the special patterns on their chests indicate that they are all disciples of the Long Qing Sect.
At this moment, these people's faces were as usual, and their expressions were neither humble nor arrogant. They seemed to be the people of Long Qingzong who specially received Jindan monks.
When they saw Lin Tianming and his wife coming, one of them blocked their way.
I saw the man saying with a proud face: "Two fellow Taoists, this is the entrance to Jindan Zhenren's auction house, and the entrance to the foundation building site is over there."
After saying this, the monk pointed to the team at the foundation building field, and his meaning was self-evident.
At this time, Lin Tianming stared directly at the speaker, showing just a hint of coercion, which made the speaker feel a chill on his back, his legs went numb, and he almost sat down. On the ground.
It was at this moment that the monk felt Lin Tianming's strength. He was a genuine Golden Core monk.
As for the sharp eyes and the hint of coercion just now, it hurt him even more.
If Lin Tianming had no ill intentions, otherwise, he would have almost no resistance and would be instantly killed by the terrifying strong man in front of him.
However, after this episode, the monk who received him realized what he was doing.
So, the monk bowed respectfully to Lin Tianming, and then said: "Senior, welcome to the Golden Elixir Auction House. Just now, I am too blind to recognize Mount Tai. Please forgive me, senior."
"Senior, please follow me here. I will arrange a VIP room for you. If you have other errands, just summon me at any time!"
After the monk finished speaking, the other two Only then did the monk react.
It turns out that Lin Tianming and his two auras were both in the foundation-building stage. What they did just now made their companions look pale, and cold sweat started to fall down their foreheads.
At that time, they thought it was a desperate person who came to cause trouble.
I never thought that the person in front of me turned out to be a golden elixir stage monk, and his face and aura were so unfamiliar that he must have come from the world of immortality in other countries.
Fortunately, just when they were about to take action, their companion's words interrupted their actions in time.
Otherwise, I am afraid that the two of them, like their companions, would inadvertently offend a golden elixir monk.
If this is the case, even if they don't die this time, they will definitely cause a lot of trouble.
Knowing this, the other two people also looked respectful at this time. Their originally somewhat arrogant expressions suddenly changed greatly.
At this time, Lin Tianming didn't care about this.
In fact, he has never shown any aura before, and has always shown his strength as an eighth-level cultivation base.
Although the few monks who received him looked arrogant, they were from the Longqing Sect and had strong backers. In addition, they responded in a timely manner. Naturally, he would not care about such a trivial matter, let alone be easily offended. A Jindan sect like Long Qingzong.
With this, Lin Tianming waved his hand and motioned for the monk in front of him to lead the way.
Seeing this scene, the monk's expression softened a lot, and he breathed a sigh of relief.
This process was also witnessed by many monks lining up in the distance.
As Lin Tianming disappeared from sight, the monks started talking.
For a time, the already noisy scene became even more lively.
In the crowd, there was a monk who said doubtfully: "That senior was so nice just now. I wonder which golden elixir expert is actually here to participate in this auction."
"No...that senior's aura and face are very unfamiliar. He is probably not a powerful Jindan from the Golden Crow Kingdom. He must have come here because of his reputation, or he just happened to travel here."
"Hehe...that senior's origins It's not important..."
"It's the Long just now Comrade Qingzong's complexion suddenly turned pale and bloodless, and it seemed that he had been taught a lesson by that senior."
"This fellow Taoist must be careful...this is Long Qingfang City..."
A foundation-building monk reminded him, and then temporarily interrupted the hot topic.
Lin Tianming didn't know all this, and even if he knew it, he wouldn't care about what these monks said. As for this moment, he was drinking tea and chatting with Qin Xi in a magnificent VIP room, while waiting for the auction to officially start.
At the same time, Lin Tianming was also looking at this golden elixir auction house.
Looking along his line of sight, the area of the auction house is not large. There is a square high platform in the center, surrounded by nearly a hundred VIP rooms.
Similar to the auction houses I have participated in, each VIP room has strong restrictions and isolation.
From inside the VIP room where he was, he could see the high platform in all directions, but he couldn't see anything in any of the VIP rooms on the opposite side.
This kind of restriction and isolation also protects some privacy of the participants.
Even if he obtains some kind of treasure through bidding, it will not be exposed easily, let alone attract the prying eyes of hostile monks, thus causing unnecessary trouble.
Therefore, Lin Tianming felt relieved and even looked forward to the auction starting.
It passed in half a moment.
As an old Taoist in yellow robe slowly walked up to the high platform, he caught Lin Tianming's eyes.
Looking along his line of sight, this man has white hair and a face full of wrinkles. He is wearing clothing bearing the mark of the Long Qing Sect, and his cultivation is at the early stage of the Golden Core.
The face of this man looks old, and there is a faint trace of death in his breath. He seems to be about to reach the age of death.
Based on these characteristics, Lin Tianming recalled the information provided by Tang Xiuping and judged the origin of this person.
If nothing unexpected happens, this old man should be a veteran Jindan monk of Long Qingzong, Xie Yingshan is undoubtedly.
Sure enough, as soon as Xie Yingshan came on the stage, he cupped his fists and raised his hands in all directions.
Immediately afterwards, Xie Yingshan said: "I, Xie Yingshan, welcome all comrades present to come and participate in this auction."
As soon as he finished speaking, there was someone in a VIP room. came the voice.
“Thank you, Old Ghost, most of the colleagues who can come here are acquaintances, and have even participated in several auctions.”
“I believe everyone knows the rules, so don’t show off. , start early and finish early, I have to rush back to make alchemy.”
As soon as these words came out, there were bursts of laughter from other directions.
"Yes... we are all acquaintances, so there is no need to talk nonsense. I think we can just start!"
Hearing these two sentences, Xie Yingshan smiled awkwardly and did not get angry because of it. It seemed that He was extremely afraid of these two monks who were teasing him.
So, Xie Yingshan chuckled and said: "Since fellow Taoist He is so impatient, and what other fellow Taoists said makes sense, I won't waste everyone's time."
After saying this , Xie Yingshan patted the storage bag, and two elixir ingredients appeared in his hand.
Immediately afterwards, Xie Yingshan introduced: "Two three-leaf purple orchids will be auctioned together at a low price of four thousand yuan of medium-grade spiritual stones. Each increase in price shall not be less than fifty yuan of spiritual stones."
Voice As soon as it fell, the first person to tease Xie Yingshan started bidding directly.
“Four thousand three hundred spiritual stones!”
Obviously, the first person to bid was the monk surnamed He in Xie Yingshankou, and he was also a third-level monk. Alchemist.
Although Lin Tianming didn't know him, let alone have any contact with him, Xie Yingshan definitely knew this person's identity.
Otherwise, this person would not have spoken out bluntly just now, saying that he was anxious to go back to refine alchemy.
And this Jindan monk named He should be another Jindan sect, no doubt He Zhengsong of the Three Poison Sect.
There are many reasons why Lin Tianming made this judgment.
Because among the current seven major golden elixir forces in the entire Jinwu Kingdom, including the golden elixir monk and the monk surnamed He who is also a third-level alchemist, only He Zhengsong of the Three Poison Sect meets the conditions.
In this way, Lin Tianming immediately understood the specific identity of the bidder.
But now, He Zhengsong came across two very good elixirs and started bidding so aggressively. He was obviously an alchemy madman.
But when Lin Tianming saw these two three-leaf purple orchids, he was not very interested.
Although this medicine is indeed precious among the third-level elixirs, it is also very rare and not easy to see.
But unfortunately, he happened to have this elixir in his hand.
As a result, even Lin Tianming, a third-level alchemist, had no interest in bidding for these two elixir materials.
However, he was not interested, but some of the other Jindan monks present were interested, and there were more than one.
Obviously, those monks who started bidding may not necessarily really need this medicine.
However, although the Golden Crow Kingdom is generally relatively harmonious, secret competition has always existed.
In some cases, even if you don't need it, you will secretly bid to get the treasure, so that some hostile forces who secretly compete with each other can get the treasure by paying more.
Under such circumstances, the first round of bidding increased steadily, and soon reached 4,800 spiritual stones.
At this time, He Zhengsong seemed determined to win the two three-leaf purple orchid grass, and directly raised the bidding price to 5,000 spiritual stones.
As expected, such a bidding process really shocked some monks who bid against it.
Coupled with the value of two three-leaf purple orchids, the value is generally around 4,500 spiritual stones.
Even when supplies are in short supply, only 4,800 spiritual stones hold the sky.
But now, you can get 5,000 pieces of mid-grade spirit stones, which is already a lot of premium.
As a result, those who originally planned to bid fell silent when they heard He Zhengsong's price.
As for those who are stumbling, they will not really pay high prices to take pictures of these two elixirs that they don’t care about so much.
Under such circumstances, the bidding price was finally fixed at 5,000 yuan of medium-grade spiritual stones, and He Zhengsong finally bought it as he wished.
Immediately afterwards, He Zhengsong completed the transaction with Xie Yingshan across the restriction, and the bidding process for the first treasure also ended.
During this intermission, Lin Tianming was also a little bit stunned in his heart, and he was shocked by such a price.
In his heart, the Golden Crow Country is worthy of being a country where He Xiandao is prosperous.
The value of these two three-leaf purple orchid grass is indeed not low. Among the third-level elixirs, they are indeed high-quality elixirs and are rarely seen in ordinary times.
And this kind of existence is actually precious enough in Wei State.
But here, Long Qingzong is also willing to put it up for auction.
If it were him, even if he didn't need it temporarily, he would really be reluctant to part with it.
Because of this, it also shows that the level of immortality cultivation in the Golden Crow Kingdom and the richness of treasures are indeed much better than those in the Wei Kingdom.
The more this happens, the more Lin Tianming looks forward to the next treasures, including the final treasure.
