Chapter 120 Auction (Part 1)
The next day
After checking the status of more than 300 acres of spiritual plants and placing Xiao Jin at Yue Qiong Peak to recuperate, Li Mu went to Qingyun City alone to participate in Wanbao Court's auction.
The status of Qingyun City is more than one level higher than Gangyang City.
At the auction of Wanbao Pavilion in Gangyang City, monks in the Qi refining stage can enter.
Qingyun City is close to the Qingxuan Sect headquarters and has an advantageous geographical location. The auction in Wanbao Pavilion in this city requires Foundation Establishment monks to enter, and they have to sit in the lobby. The VIP room is open to Jindan monks or Yuanying Zhenjun.
With the name of 'Master Li' and the guest badge, Li Mu easily got into an independent VIP room.
"Master Li, you can drink spiritual tea here for a while, and I will entertain some seniors!" Gongsun Chu asked Li Mu for instructions with a smile.
“Well, you don’t have to greet me, you can go and do your work!” Li Mu smiled and nodded, watching.
Watching Gongsun Chu exit the room, Li Mu took out a "Nan Ling Chronicle" from the Jiuzang Lingzhu and flipped through it.
Li Mu serves as a senior guest officer at Wanbao Pavilion and has already learned in advance about the spiritual objects that Wanbao Pavilion has put up for auction. There is nothing worthy of his attention.
The reason why I still come to participate is because this auction not only contains Wanbao Pavilion’s own products, but also includes lots from other customers, which may contain good opportunities for missing items.
Time passes bit by bit.
As the last Golden Elixir monk entered the VIP room, the auction in Wanbao Pavilion officially began.
"Welcome all distinguished guests, Wanbao Pavilion's triennial auction officially begins today. I, Wan Yuncheng, have been invited to host this auction." An old man in his fifties, Jin Dan, He walked across the void, walked up to the auction stage, looked at the audience and the VIP rooms on both sides with a smile and introduced himself.
"There will be many high-level spiritual objects, spiritual weapons, and elixirs in this auction. If you are not prepared enough, you can bid and participate in the auction. At the end of the auction, spiritual objects of equal value can be used. You can also negotiate with the manager of Wanbao Pavilion to offset them. In addition, in accordance with the According to the rules of fair bidding, please consider carefully before bidding with the auction order. Please do not disrupt the bidding order. "
"After the auction starts, everyone can use the auction order in hand to participate in the bidding. This bidding mode is very secretive and will not expose any of your bidding information to the outside world. The bidding data will be displayed on several stations below me, so that everyone can confirm the bidding in a timely manner. It is very simple.”
A brief introduction to the bidding rules. Wan Yuncheng said with a smile: "Without further ado, the auction will officially begin."
As soon as he finished speaking, Wan Yuncheng took out a cyan pill bottle from the small teleportation array on the auction stage. The display said: "The first lot is a third-level top-grade God-Breaking Pill. There are three pills in total. Taking this pill can nourish the soul and repair the loss of the soul. It is a rare soul pill. It is the ingenuity of Master Luo Yu, the master of alchemy. "
"This elixir can be taken by foundation-building monks and real people. It can greatly improve the soul. The three soul-breaking elixirs are put up for auction together. The starting price is: 10,000 soul-centered elixirs. Limited time. "One hundred interest, the auction begins, everyone can bid!" Wan Yuncheng looked around the audience, nearly a thousand foundation-building monks, and a hundred VIP rooms, and announced loudly.
As soon as Wan Yuncheng finished speaking, the bidding mirror was displayed directly under the auction table. The data immediately changed, and the first bidder appeared.
Auction Order No. 143, bid: 12,000 souls, countdown: 98 interest.
The next moment, this set of data changed immediately.
13,000, 15,000,..., 27,000,
One hundred breaths of time passed in the blink of an eye, and the data displayed on the mirror was frozen.
"The time is up and the bidding is over. Congratulations to Fellow Taoist No. 29, for winning three God-Breaking Pills at a price of 35,000 Spirits!" Auctioneer Wan Yuncheng announced as he dropped the hammer excitedly.
Wan Yuncheng then quickly took out another auction item from the small teleportation array on the auction table, and introduced with a smile: "The next item to be auctioned is the elixir. It is made of the fourth-level beauty-resident fruit. Wanshengcao and Tianluo flower are used to refine the beauty-preserving elixir. There is only one pill, which has the effect of eternal youth. "What! The second item is the beauty-preserving elixir!" The Beauty Pill!"
"My dear, how come this kind of elixir appears? The female nuns are going crazy!"
"This kind of elixir appears on the second lot. Dan, what else is there behind?”
"Oops! If I don't buy this beauty pill, the matchmaker will blame me!"
"This Wanbao Pavilion is really good at looking for trouble! Why is there only one such elixir? Isn't this looking for trouble! ”
“…. ”
As soon as the resident Yan Dan came out, the hall was in chaos. The Foundation Establishment monks were talking a lot. Many of the Foundation Establishment female cultivators on the scene had red eyes. The golden elixir bosses also had headaches.
Li Mu thought for a while and did not intervene in the auction. He is still young and will be able to build a foundation elixir in about twenty years at most when the Purple Yang Spirit Flower and Yin Soul Fruit are planted and mature. Lifespan, body and appearance will all be rejuvenated, so there is no need for such beauty-preserving elixirs.
Before, Li Mu intervened for the three God-Breaking Pills, but finally gave up after seeing the enthusiasm of several golden pills in the VIP seats.
The effectiveness of three God-Breaking Pills may not be as powerful as the divine soul blessed by an acre of Cuiling Fruit after it matures!
"Limited time is two hundred breaths. The starting price of this elixir is: 50,000 souls. The bidding begins!" Wan Yuncheng announced loudly, the noisy scene came to an abrupt end, and all the monks participating in the auction jumped in. Bid order, view bidding price.
Sure enough, the starting price of 50,000 souls cannot stop those female cultivators who are crazy about their appearance, and those male cultivators who pay for their Taoist companions.
80,000, 100,000,…
Soon, there were only a few golden elixir monks left, competing for the price.
The bidding numbers are rushing towards 200,000 mid-grade spiritual stones.
Wan Yuncheng watched quietly on the auction stage. He did not need to guide this fierce bidding or add fuel to the fire. He only needed to wait for the end of the bidding time and announce the result when the hammer fell.
"Fellow Taoist No. 5 bids: 210,000 souls, remaining time: 9 breaths, is there anyone else who wants to bid?" Wan Yuncheng shouted as if to add at the right time.
As soon as Wan Yuncheng finished speaking, the bidding numbers that had slowed down suddenly jumped violently. Several potential competitors tried in vain, and the bidding became fierce again.
In the end, 9 breaths of time passed by, and the Beauty Pill was finally auctioned off by Auction Order No. 12 for 300,000 medium-grade spiritual stones, resulting in a 6-fold bargaining price.
“Sure enough, this Beauty Pill is in the pocket of Senior Jindan, and it is not something we can peep into!”
“Alas! This Wanbao Pavilion auction is a It’s more high-profile every time. Are we here to watch the show?”
“A 300,000-year-old beauty pill has lost its value. Is there another large-scale spiritual mine? It’s come out!”
“How rich! You can buy several fourth-level spiritual weapons with three hundred thousand souls.”
...
In the audience, the Foundation Establishment monks had no chance to participate in this level of bidding, so they all watched the excitement.
With the heated atmosphere created by the Zhuyan Pill, the auctioneer Wan Yuncheng quickly announced that the third item to be auctioned was still the elixir, three fourth-level Huntian Pills.
One hundred breaths of time passed in a blink of an eye, and the third lot fell into the hands of VIP Room No. 11. The final bid was: 48,000 pieces.
Then, the fourth auction item is still the fourth-level elixir - Ziyang Dan, five Ziyang Dans, the final bid is: 60,000 in the spirit
The fifth lot: a fourth-level Heaven-Building Pill, which has the ability to complete the qualifications. The last bid: 80,000 Zhongling
The sixth lot: a fourth-level Infant Condensing Pill, which has the ability to break the gold. , the ability to help conceive a baby, the final bid: 450,000 souls.
…….
Crazy!
All the golden elixir monks in the VIP room were jealous, and the 'foundation-building monks' who were eating melons were also crazy!
A large wave of high-level elixirs were all golden elixirs. The foundation-building monks were usually very eager for them, but they were hard to find. Now they suddenly appeared. The golden elixir monks in the VIP room took action one after another and took them decisively.
More than a dozen cherished high-level elixirs were auctioned one after another, creating an auction feast.
"Okay! The auction of the elixir has come to an end. Next, the auction of the spiritual weapons will begin. The spiritual weapons in this auction include the spiritual weapons refined by our weapon refiner, Master Chen, and Master Li. The spiritual artifacts submitted for auction by customers have all been carefully selected by our spiritual appraisers to be of the highest quality." Auctioneer Wan Yuncheng looked around the audience and introduced them in detail.
Wan Yuncheng looked around the auditorium under the tower and announced loudly: "We are now entering the spiritual weapon auction. Please take a look at the first item, a fourth-level top-grade fire spirit sword refined by Master Li."
As soon as he finished speaking, a sword box appeared in a small teleportation.
Wan Yuncheng opened the sword box, reached out and grabbed it, and took out a fourth-level spiritual sword that was blazing with white flames.
“This sword is made of fourth-order extremely flame spirit crystal, marrow flame essence stone, and fourth-order black flame dragon python demon bone. It is refined by Master Li’s secret method. The fire spirit is extremely strong. If it has fire spiritual roots, A monk who majors in fire magic will not only have his combat power doubled, but he can also rely on the fire element of this sword to practice on a daily basis, doubling his training speed!" Wan Yuncheng grabbed the flame spirit sword in the sword box and gently flicked it! With a wave, he immediately summoned an incandescent fire snake with the spirit sword, the temperature was frighteningly high.
The expressions of the foundation-building monks sitting in front of the auditorium changed drastically, and there was a chill in their hearts.
If you are attacked by this incandescent fire snake, it will turn into ashes within two breaths. The power of this fire-based spiritual sword is really terrifying.
“What a sword, what a terrifying spiritual sword!”
"It's so powerful and spiritual. This fire sword spirit can transform into spirits at any time! It's amazing!"
"The spirit of the fire snake stays together and never disperses. It's really a good sword!"
"With such a peerless sword, Master Li is truly well-deserved! He cannot be the same person as Elder Li of Qingxuan Sect!"
"It seems that Elder Li of Qingxuan Sect is the weapon refiner of Wanbao Pavilion. It’s really powerful!”
“The spirit sword here is too powerful, and it will definitely attract competition from the Jindan seniors. Even if they lose their money, they can’t afford it, and they are destined to miss it.”
"The fourth-level spiritual sword! We can only watch..." "..."
Watching Wan Yuncheng use the power of the fourth-level fire-based spiritual sword to easily A fiery snake sword energy was cut out, and it stayed together for a long time. The eyes of the monks on the scene suddenly became extremely fiery, and they talked excitedly.
“Since I don’t practice fire-based skills, I can only exert 50% of the power of this sword, so I won’t show it too much here. This sword is extremely suitable for fire spirit roots, or if you have practiced fire. Worn by monks who practice martial arts." Wan Yuncheng introduced it with a smile, and then quoted: "The starting price of this sword is: 50,000 souls. The bidding time is: 180 breaths. Now, start bidding!"
As soon as Wan Yuncheng finished speaking, the bidding prices were displayed below the auction table, and fierce bidding changes immediately occurred.
60,000, 70,000, 80,000,..., in just a dozen breaths, the bidding price soared to more than 100,000 souls, and then the price slowly stopped
The audience fell into There was silence for a while, and all the foundation-building monks looked on blankly. Some people were unwilling to participate in the bidding several times, and soon gave up.
This spiritual weapon has become the target of frantic competition among the Jindan seniors, and there is no room for Foundation Establishment monks to intervene.
......
First the spiritual pill, then the spiritual weapon. Even if it is to auction his own spiritual weapon, Li Mu is not interested at all. He continues to look at the ancient book "Nan Ling Chronicle", To pass the time.
Maybe there are too many high-level spiritual weapons being refined. Without spirit fusion and birth of weapon spirits, spiritual weapons are equivalent to having no soul. In Li Mu's eyes, such spiritual weapons are garbage, even if he refined them himself. , nor worthy of attention.
If he hadn’t heard from Gongsun Chu that some high-level spiritual beasts, spiritual plants, and some special skill books would appear at the auction, Li Mu would not have wanted to participate in the auction.
In order to prevent the attention of the senior officials of the Qingxuan Sect, Li Mu took the first step and postponed the weapon refining task arranged by Elder Yin on the grounds of seclusion.
There are not many things that can interest him now. Li Mu only wants to stay at Yue Qiong Peak to cultivate spiritual plants, and by the way, he can cultivate Xiaojin, or contract a few more high-level spiritual plants with better qualifications. Once the beast is cultivated and used as a support in the future, it will not want to get involved in other things.
Time passed bit by bit, and the auction had been going on for more than half an hour.
The spiritual weapon process was a bit long. Li Mu occasionally paid attention to it. The six fourth-level spiritual weapons he refined were sold at a good price. The commission earned him thirty-four or five spiritual weapons, which was far less than what he earned from refining weapons for the sect. many.
However, taking into account the discounts provided by Wanbao Pavilion for purchasing spiritual objects, and the various invisible benefits provided by Wanbao Pavilion for searching for high-end spiritual object resources through Wanbao Pavilion channels, the value created for both of them in refining spiritual weapons , not much different.
“Thank you for your active bidding. The spiritual weapon auction has come to an end. Next, we enter the spirit beast auction. This time we received many entrustments from fellow Taoists to auction a batch of high-level spirit beast cubs. Eggs, spiritual insect eggs, I will introduce them one by one," the auctioneer Wan Yuncheng announced.
"Is this the end? I haven't bought the right spiritual weapon yet!"
"It's gone! I haven't even bought the protective weapon yet!"
< br>
“The spiritual weapons in this auction are so high-end that you can’t even get them!”
“It’s all for nothing! I didn’t buy a single spiritual weapon!”
“Why is it gone? There are too few spiritual weapons in this auction!"
...
As soon as the auctioneer finished speaking, most of the foundation-building monks in the audience were dissatisfied. It was easy to find time to attend the Wanbao Pavilion's auction, but ended up becoming a spectator. Many people didn't buy any spiritual weapons, and they were out of stock.
"Fellow Taoists, please be patient. Due to time constraints, we can only take out high-end and valuable spiritual artifacts for auction. If you have not purchased your favorite spiritual artifacts, you can ask our store clerk later. There are still a large number of high-quality spiritual weapons in the pavilion that have not participated in the auction. You can choose as you like and buy them at a lower price. In addition, our Wanbao Pavilion also provides extremely high discounts for Taoist friends today! "Wan Yuncheng! He had expected it and signaled calmly.
“I see, this is so decent!”
“What a discount!”
“If I can buy a suitable spiritual weapon at a low price, I will often use it in the future. Come to your Wanbao Pavilion to take care of me!”
……
Hearing this, all the foundation-building monks in the audience breathed a sigh of relief and immediately had a good look on their faces.
"The next item to be auctioned is a fourth-level monster egg!" Wan Yuncheng looked at the small teleportation platform and introduced.
As soon as he finished speaking, the small teleportation platform had a flash of inspiration, and a gray earth-colored demon egg more than two feet high and one foot wide appeared, exuding strong vitality, with countless gray colors surrounding it. Dust is formed by the gathering of earth spiritual energy.
It means that this fourth-level monster egg is an earth monster, and its qualifications and potential are very good
"This is a fourth-level iron-clad rock lizard monster. Egg, with outstanding qualifications and excellent quality, is a rare combat assistant," Wan Yuncheng introduced with a smile.
"It's an armored rock lizard! I thought it was a black stone turtle!"
"The armored rock lizard is very ugly! And it's a fourth-level monster egg. I don't know how long it will take to raise it until it reaches adulthood!"
>
“Tsk, tsk, tsk, if it were the armored black rhinoceros, I would fight for it no matter what, and forget about the rock lizard!”
“Who would raise such a gold-eating beast! There are no resources to raise it. Enough to make a golden elixir yourself.”
……
As soon as Wan Yuncheng finished his introduction, countless foundation-building monks immediately complained about its shortcomings. They all expressed their disapproval and refused to participate in the bidding.
Looking at the reaction from the audience, a trace of embarrassment flashed across Wan Yuncheng's face, and he quickly moved on to the next step and announced: "The starting price of this egg: 30,000 Zhongling, the bidding time limit: 60 interest, bidding Let’s start.”
As soon as he finished speaking, everyone looked at the bidding table to see who would bid for this thing.
Auction order No. 72, bidding: 32,000 souls.
“Hey! Someone is willing to pay an additional price of 2,000 Zhongling to buy this egg, and he is also a senior in the VIP room!”
"Indeed! Iron-clad rock lizard! This thing needs to eat spirit ants to feed itself. How can you afford to keep it!"
"It's strange! Iron-clad rock lizard is difficult to raise, ugly and has low combat power. Monster, why are you raising it?”
……
All the foundation-building monks expressed their incomprehension, and no one in the VIP room could compete with him. In the end, 60 breaths Upon arrival, the spiritual object was successfully photographed by the people in VIP Room 72.
"Congratulations to fellow Taoist No. 72, for winning the auction for a level 4 demon egg!" Wan Yuncheng, who originally thought the auction would be rejected, breathed a sigh of relief and announced quickly, not even bothering to quote the price.
Then, Wan Yuncheng quickly entered the auction of the next lot and introduced it in an exciting tone: "The next lot is the third-order golden-winged cloud eagle demon egg. There are three demon eggs this time. The bidding starts one by one. The first Up for auction, the starting price is 50,000 souls, and the bidding time limit is 150 interest. "Wow! The third-level Golden Winged Cloud Eagle! Wanbao Pavilion can actually sell this kind of monster egg!"
"It is indeed a good thing. It is much better than the fourth-level Iron-clad Rock Lizard. Although there are three of them, I'm afraid I won't be able to compete!"
"Yes! Compared with the Iron-clad Rock Lizard Get up, one day at a time!”
“Forget it! You can’t get this good thing!”
...
As soon as the auctioneer finished his introduction, the audience was in an uproar again. However, compared with the previous disgust, everyone was excited this time and wished they could win the bid. The atmosphere was completely different. .
“I announce that the bidding for the first Golden Winged Cloud Eagle Monster Egg has begun!” Wan Yuncheng announced loudly and excitedly.
The next moment, the bidding price changed drastically: 70,000, 80,000,..., the bidding kept rising, soaring to more than 150,000 in the blink of an eye.
……
In VIP Room No. 72, Li Mu watched them with a smile as they bid for the Cloud Eagle Monster Egg, but did not participate. Today, he participated in the Wanbao Pavilion auction and successfully bought the fourth-level monster egg. Today was finally not in vain.
Everyone saw it was an armored rock lizard, and was immediately frightened by the ugly appearance of this monster, the difficult conditions to raise it, the extremely timid character of the armored rock lizard, and its poor fighting skills..., etc. , even if its price is extremely low, as high as level 4, no one dares to sell it easily.
However, Li Mu has the magical talent of identifying all spirits! A supernatural power that can see through the foundation of all things.
That demon egg is indeed an iron-clad rock lizard, but it is also a hybrid demon egg. However, the other half of its high-level demon beast bloodline has not been revealed!
No! It should have already appeared! It’s just that no one paid attention, let alone thought about it in any direction!
A large amount of earth-type spiritual energy gathered around the fourth-order iron-clad rock lizard monster egg, which was one of the strange images. This was a monster egg produced by a mixture of the fourth-order iron-clad rock lizard and the sixth-order black jade dragon.
The dragon gave birth to nine sons with strange shapes. The nature of the dragon is inherently lustful, and the same is true for the dragon, because the dragon's bloodline itself is inherited from the dragon, and therefore, its nature is also inherited.
This missed pick is okay, but Li Mu still hopes that the hatched rock lizard will be more like its father and not too ugly!
In the book "Demon Spirit Painting Strategy", which introduces various monsters, Li Mu has seen the appearance of the armored rock lizard. It has a long body and a short mouth, a bit like a pangolin magnified a hundred times. It is not ordinary ugly, and its whole body is Carrying the thick rock, I don't know whether the black jade dragon was so suffocated or wanted to try something new that he actually attacked the armored rock lizard.
This is probably something that most of the monks present could not have thought of!
Li Mu looked at the auction site that was going on, smiling happily, waiting for the next item to be auctioned.
If he can gather five five-element monsters, refine their natal spiritual weapons, and then use the spirit-controlling technique to teach them to set up the five-element formation or even the five-element sword formation, it will increase his overall combat power. And the boost seems to be very big!
Suddenly thinking of this, Li Mu's heart skipped a beat.
