Chapter 30 Auction of the second-level elixir
Zhou Xun stepped through the entrance, and his eyes suddenly opened up.
A simple square covering an area of more than a hundred feet appeared in front of us. It was said to be a square, but it was actually a slightly flat platform.
There are still exposed soil in many places on the ground. I think it was just built not long ago.
In the center of the square, there is a simple wooden platform more than one foot high. It is empty and there is not a single person on it.
From the stage to the edge of the square, there were many stalls of various sizes. Sitting behind the stalls was a monk, who must have been the stall owner.
At this time, many monks had come to the square, gathering around various stalls to choose.
Coincidentally, the monks here are either wearing cloaks to cover their figures, or they are wearing masks, making their faces unclear.
The same goes for Zhou Xun, who is wearing a dark cloak that wraps his entire body in it.
"Welcome in, Chenghui is a spiritual essence!" At this time, an indifferent voice sounded in Zhou Xun's ears.
It turned out that there were two guards standing on each side of the entrance, and the voice just now was made by their leader.
Zhou Xun did not hesitate, and decisively took out a spirit essence, handed it to the guard, and then strode towards the stalls in the square.
"Fellow Taoist, take a look at the best talismans. There are fireball talismans, ice thorn talismans, and quicksand talismans!" Seeing Zhou Xun walking by, a stall owner with a monkey mask on his face came towards Zhou Xun. greeted.
"How to sell it?"
Hearing this, Zhou Xun squatted down, picked up a fireball talisman, and tasted it carefully.
"Fireball Talisman, Ice Thorn Talisman, all five in one spirit stone!" Seeing Zhou Xun asking about the price, the stall owner became even more enthusiastic.
"It is indeed much cheaper than Hongyefang!" Zhou Xun nodded secretly in his heart.
If you are in Hongyefang, one spirit stone can buy up to four lands.
Then Zhou Xun moved to a few more stalls, and the goods at each stall were at least 20% cheaper than those in Hongyefang.
There were some stalls that were even 30% or even 40% cheaper. .
However, such treasures often still have residual blood stains, allowing Zhou Xun to know where they came from at a glance.
It must be owned by some unlucky monk.
Looking at the stall owner behind the stall, two words "Jie Xiu" appeared in Zhou Xun's mind!
I won’t wait any longer.
It is said that many tribulation cultivators have practiced special tracking spells, allowing people to fall prey to them without even realizing it.
Zhou Xun was cautious and naturally left quickly.
Wandering around all the stalls, Zhou Xun came across many interesting treasures.
However, he is short of money, and the only spiritual stone he has is to be auctioned off for the Ning Yin Grass.
Otherwise, those few spirit stones would be missing during the auction, and I would regret it to death.
After all, cheap second-level elixirs like Ningyin Grass are rare.
After staying for about two hours, the auction finally started.
Only three drums were heard, and a dozen figures in cloaks flew up from behind the high platform.
"Welcome to all of you to participate in this conference. I am one of the organizers of this conference!" A man with a stern expression stood up and bowed his hands to everyone around him.
Although the words were polite, his cultivation in the late stage of Qi training did not restrain himself at all.
I think it is to scare those who have bad intentions.
After all, black market transactions hide filth and evil, and are a mixed bag of good and bad.
“And this auction will be hosted by me!”
“As for the rules of the auction, there is only one, which is that the highest bidder wins. After the Taoist friend bids and wins the auction, you can go to the stage immediately. The house will be delivered."
He pointed to the left side of the table.
A few simple houses stand there.
"Some Taoist friends must have gotten the news about this auction in advance. Whether it is bottleneck-breaking elixirs, high-quality magic weapons, or rare talismans, they are all available!"
"Okay, stop talking nonsense. Without further ado, let’s go straight to the treasures.”
Then he raised his voice and ordered loudly:
“Bring up all the treasures!”
After a while, I saw Two giant men carried a treasure box half a man's height with both hands, and gently put it down next to the middle-aged man.
The middle-aged man waved his hand, and the treasure chest opened automatically.
Then he picked up a gear-shaped treasure from inside:
"The first treasure, the Cold Moon Wheel"
"Mid-grade attack weapon!"
"Using dark iron as the main material and adding Tianjing Star Sand. It is refined by the master of weapon training Jin Hongzi. When activated, the moon wheel rotates and has the sharpness to break armor. It is the nemesis of defensive magic weapons! ”
"The base price is twenty-one spiritual stones, and each increase in price must not be less than one spiritual stone!"
The first auction item is a medium-grade magic weapon. Let everyone's emotions rise.
As the saying goes, getting a head start is what the organizers had in mind.
Zhou Xun looked at it with envy. Although the Hanyue Wheel was a bit ugly, almost like a large gear, its power was indeed impressive and it was a good treasure.
It's a pity that I can't buy it. After all, my real purpose is to get the second-level elixir.
“Twenty-two spiritual stones!”
As soon as he finished speaking, a monk couldn’t wait to bid.
“Twenty-three!”
Bids came and went.
This Hanyue Wheel has armor-breaking effects, is extremely rare among attack weapons, and can be called a fine product.
“I’m offering 30 spirit stones, and I hope all fellow Taoists will give me some face!”
At this time, an old voice sounded.
What followed was a sudden burst of energy from the ninth level of Qi training.
Everyone was shocked.
"Nine levels of Qi training!"
He would be a big shot in Hongyefang!
I don’t know who concealed his identity.
The middle-aged host on the stage frowned slightly when he heard this, and slightly arched his hands towards the person behind him.
At this time, one of the monks sitting behind him stood up.
"The auction items will be awarded to the highest bidder, and no one is allowed to destroy them!"
The voice was extremely majestic, and the coercion in his tone silenced the entire square.
“Foundation-building monk!”
Zhou Xun’s heart trembled.
Definitely a foundation-building monk!
This kind of pressure alone makes it difficult to breathe. Only foundation-building monks can do this.
It seems that this so-called black market is not that simple.
Being able to invite the foundation-building monks must be closely related to the four major families of Hongyefang.
“Four major forces, four major families!”
“Yes, come to think of it, these four major forces are the spokespersons for the support of the four major families of Hongyefang!”
Zhou Xun figured out the mystery in an instant.
It seems that behind the black market, there are still four major families.
Just as he was thinking about it, the old voice came out again, but it became a little panicked.
"It's junior Meng Lang. I'm willing to pay a hundred spiritual stones to purchase this thing!"
"Humph, I won't do it next time!" The words just finished on the stage.
The old bidder groaned and spat out a mouthful of blood.
"Thank you for your mercy, senior!"
Soon, this middle-grade magical weapon was bought by the old man for 100 spirit stones.
"The second lot, ten bottles of the elixir for strengthening the body and cultivating the vitality."
As he spoke, the middle-aged host waved his hand, and five bottles of the elixir flew from the storage bag. came out and landed on the table next to him.
"Everyone knows that the Qi-inducing pill can assist in cultivation and save several months of time. It also has the effect of breaking through realms, making it a rare treasure pill."
"A bottle of Qi-inducing pills. Ten pills. Starting price Three spiritual stones, each increase must be no less than ten spiritual essences!”
“Three spiritual stones and ten spiritual essences!”
“Three spiritual stones and twenty spiritual essences”
Bids came and went.
Soon the elixir was bought by a monk who offered three spiritual stones and eighty spiritual essences.
"The second item"
"The third item"
One treasure after another was bought in the auction, and finally the purpose of Zhou Xun's trip was reached
“The twenty-third item, the second-level elixir Ning Yin Cao, starting price is 40 spirit stones!”
