Chapter 679 Ghost Face Mask
Shi Yue took out the token and handed it to the bald man.
"Get in! Zhao Chen, it's all right, go back and stay outside!" The bald man pushed open the door of the house and invited Shi Yue in.
There are some refining materials in the house, which are not very eye-catching.
The bald man took out a ghost mask and handed it to Shi Yue, saying, "Wearing this mask can isolate other people's spiritual sense detection. Of course, you can not wear it. Our auction only guarantees your safety at the venue. It is not our business to leave the venue. The mask will be taken back after the auction."
The ghost face mask is covered with dense spiritual patterns, which is a magic weapon of great grade.
Shi Yue did not refuse, and put on the mask in front of the bald man.
The bald man quickly walked to an open space, and with force under his feet, a blue brick immediately fell into a trap.
A big hole suddenly cracked on the ground, and a bluestone staircase appeared in front of the two of them.
"Come with me."
The bald man left a sentence and walked down the stairs.
Shi Yue hesitated for a moment and followed him.
After walking more than ten feet, they came to a stone chamber more than ten feet in size. A black stone door about 10 feet high blocked their way.
Two monks in black wearing grimace masks guarded both sides of the stone gate. Looking at the fluctuations of their magic power, they were undoubtedly foundation-building monks.
There is a circular groove on the stone door.
The bald man took out a circular token from his arms and put it into the groove. A yellow light flashed and the stone door opened.
"Get in! The auction is about to begin." The bald man turned around and said to Shi Yue.
Shi Yue was stunned when he walked in.
In front of me is a half-acre hall, with a large number of white crystals embedded on the stone walls, making the entire hall brightly illuminate.
There is a circular high platform in the center of the hall, surrounded by rows of wooden chairs, and most of them are seated.
These monks all wore ghost masks, covering their faces, and could only distinguish between men and women from their clothes.
Obviously, these people don't want to be recognized either.
Although there were quite a few people in the hall, there were very few people talking, which seemed very quiet.
Shi Yue looked at the monks in the hall, found a seat back, and sat down.
From time to time, people walked in and wore grimace masks on their faces.
After a cup of tea, two men in black walked up to the round platform.
Two men, one is tall and the other is short and fat. Both of them have the cultivation level of the late stage of foundation building.
Seeing two men walking up the circular platform, the monks stopped talking and stared at the two men in black.
"You are welcome to attend the auction we held. This is our first time to hold an auction. The rules are the same as other auctions. Those with higher prices will be awarded. If the spirit stone is insufficient, you can mortgage items of equivalent value. The two of us brothers will evaluate it and start bidding now."
As soon as the tall and thin man finished speaking, the short and fat man immediately took out a wooden box a half feet long, opened it and saw five blue daggers two feet long placed inside.
"Each set of spiritual weapons is a low-grade spiritual weapon, which contains fifteen levels of prohibition. Just one step away is a medium-grade spiritual weapon. The starting price is 4,000 spirit stones, and the price increase shall not be less than five hundred spirit stones each time."
"What? I want a complete set of spiritual weapons, five thousand spirit stones."
“Five thousand five.”
"I'll pay six thousand."
······
Monks bidding one after another, and many people participated in the auction.
"The first auction item is a complete set of spiritual weapons. Although it is for creating an atmosphere, it can be seen that the organizer is rich and powerful. It seems that there will be a lot of things to learn in the auction." Shi Yue thought to himself.
After a fierce round of auctions, this set of spiritual weapons was sold for 11,000 spirit stones.
Without Shi Yue's expectations, this set of spiritual weapons made the atmosphere in the venue warm.
"The second auction item is the thick earth shield with a low-quality defensive spirit weapon. It has fourteen levels of ban. The starting price is 3,000 spirit stones, and the price increase shall not be less than five hundred each time."
A black shield was suspended in front of the short and fat man, and the surface of the black shield was covered with dense runes.
“Three thousand five.”
"I'll give four thousand."
"Five thousand."
······
The short and fat man took out auction items one by one, and each item was sold at a high price. It included both finished spiritual weapons, pills and elixirs, and the atmosphere in the venue became more and more warm.
"The next auction item is the favorite of the weapon refiner. A piece of Zixin stone weighs three pounds and two ounces."
The short and fat man held a purple crystal the size of a watermelon and shouted loudly.
Shi Yue's eyes lit up. Zixin stone is a top-notch earth-attribute material. Most of the defensive spirit weapons will be mixed with some Zixin stone to increase defense.
"The starting price of one piece of Zixin stone is 4,000 spirit stones, and the price increase shall not be less than one thousand spirit stones each time."
"Six thousand spirit stones." Shi Yue shouted loudly.
"Seven thousand."
"I gave eight thousand."
"Ten thousand." Shi Yue directly raised the price to 10,000.
When I heard the price of 10,000 spirit stones, there were many fewer bidders.
"Ten thousand two." After a moment, an old voice suddenly rang out.
"Ten fifteen thousand, this purple-xin stone is bound to be won." Shi Yue expressed his thoughts.
It is hard to buy a favor from a wealthy person. As long as he likes something, he doesn't care about the price.
The quotation for 15,000 spirit stones was much more than the value of this Zixin stone. Others were very sensible and did not participate in the auction. Shi Yue successfully captured this Zixin stone.
In the following time, the short and fat man showed up and took out multiple auction items, and the atmosphere in the venue gradually reached a climax.
After three bottles of pills taken by the foundation-building monk were photographed, the short and fat man took two steps back.
"I believe many fellow Taoists are anxious. The next time is the final auction item." The tall and thin man glanced at the monks at the venue and said in a deep voice.
"Take out the final auction items quickly! I can't wait."
"That's right, we came here specifically for the finale auction."
The monks under the round high platform were in a stir, and some monks even urged them.
The tall and thin man nodded, flipped his palm, and a black boat the size of a palm appeared in his hand.
His wrist trembled, and the black boat came out of his hand, rising in the wind, with runes everywhere on the surface, emitting an astonishing wave of mana.
"The medium-grade flying spiritual weapon Black Wind Boat has seventeen levels of ban, with a base price of 4,000 spirit stones. Each price increase must not be less than 1,000 spirit stones." The tall and thin man shouted loudly.
"Medium-grade flying spirit weapon!" Shi Yue was a little surprised. The first final auction item was a medium-grade flying spirit weapon. He was curious whether the final auction item would have a top-grade spiritual weapon.
"I'll pay five thousand."
"Seven thousand."
"Eight thousand."
This medium-grade flying spirit weapon caused fierce bidding from everyone, and was eventually shot away by a tall man in red for 23,000 spirit stones.
Shi Yue carefully noticed that the man in red had sold many auction items, and was rich and might have been born into a major force.
