However, the Blue Qi Stone is an extremely rare seventh-level spiritual material, which is hard to come by. When he was in Shang Kingdom, he had not received a lot of rewards for Xuanbing Palace for many days. What's more, it's not easy to find it in the Xia Kingdom, where resources are not rich. Lin Feng walked through seven cultivation cities of all sizes, but he still found nothing. Seeing that Xiaojing had been captured for two days, he was already anxious. He had already decided that if there was no gain in Muyun City, he would give up and go to Qingfeng Valley for a night of rest and go to Qingfeng Valley tomorrow morning.
Fortunately, the emperor pays off. Another village has found the Blue Qi Stone in this Muyun City. Although it still needs to be auctioned, Lin Feng has made up his mind to get it no matter how much the price it costs.
In addition, although he has the identity of a famous weapon refiner in Wanbaolou, in his opinion, this is just a false reputation, which does not mean that he can send people from Wanbaolou to do things for him. Besides, if he wants to use this help, he must show his identity, which of course is not possible.

"Auction?" Zhang Fangzhou was stunned when he heard Lin Feng's words and said with some concern, "Boss Lin... there will be no problem, right?"
Lin Feng smiled faintly: "It shouldn't be, don't worry, I just go and take a photo of the blue Qi stone and leave, trying not to attract attention."
He glanced at Mu Fengqing, then said to Zhang Fangzhou: "Look at him, contact me immediately if there is any situation. I will come back after taking pictures of the blue Qi stone, and then we will set off. I will leave the hill just in case."
Zhang Fangzhou has a communication bead given by Lin Feng in his hand. If he is in this city, he can contact him at any time. With Xiao Qiu here, he can deal with any accidents even if he can't handle them. Even if he can't handle them, he should be able to delay it and wait until Lin Feng comes back.
Zhang Fangzhou patted his chest and said, "Don't worry, Boss Lin, I will be optimistic about this kid! If he dares to play any tricks, I will break his hands and legs first!"
As he said that, he glared at Mu Fengqing in the corner fiercely. Mu Fengqing suddenly felt excited and was so busy: "Don't worry! I won't want to escape..."
...
Lin Feng didn't stay in the inn for long, and after a moment, he left the door again. He took a casual walk around several streets in the city. When he came outside Jizhen Building, he had already changed his appearance and became a thin middle-aged man, looking like a weak scholar. However, the pressure of the Nascent Soul on his body made none of the many monks who saw him dared to be disrespectful to him. In the Nascent Soul Stage, he could already walk horizontally here.
Lin Feng only emitted the pressure of the Nascent Soul, and the true energy fluctuations were hidden very deeply. Unless they were familiar with him and others, it was basically impossible to recognize him.
There was about an hour before the auction began. The square outside Jizhen Building was crowded with people. One main entrance and two side doors had already begun to enter. Lin Feng walked straight to the entrance of the main entrance. The low-level monks he met along the way respectfully gave way. At the entrance registration office, he directly asked for a separate VIP room, and then walked into Jizhen Building under the guidance of his attendant.
Soon, Lin Feng was taken to a spacious VIP room on the third floor of about 30 square meters. After waving his servants back and instructing him not to disturb him, he closed the door, checked around, nodded with satisfaction, took out several array flags, and set up a formation that blocked spiritual consciousness and explored at a higher level than the original array in the room.
After doing all this, Lin Feng walked to the huge floor-to-ceiling crystal window facing the auction hall, looking down at the spacious auction venue like a large cinema below. At this moment, there were already crowds of people below. It was roughly estimated that there were at least five or six hundred people, almost all of them were Jindan monks. It seemed that this auction was indeed very eye-catching.
Of course, it is impossible for the only Jindan monks to attend the auction. The Nascent Soul monks just don’t appear in the hall on the first floor. They are basically all in the VIP rooms on the second, third and fourth floors. The shielding arrays in the VIP rooms only block the perception of the spiritual consciousness from the outside to the inside, and will not isolate the spiritual consciousness of the people inside and the breath they actively release. Not all monks are accustomed to hiding their breath in a low-key manner. Therefore, without deliberately sensing it, you can feel the aura of at least twenty Nascent Soul monks in this building at this time.
The Nascent Soul monks are already very noble in the cultivation world of Xia Kingdom. It is rare to gather so many at once. Lin Feng knew that the reason why so many Nascent Soul monks appeared was because one of the final treasures in this auction - the God Transformation Pill.
As the name suggests, the God Transformation Pill is an "essential" pill for Nascent Soul monks to advance to the God Transformation Pill. For example, the Infant Pill is a dream for Jindan monks. Especially in a "small place" like Xia Kingdom, there are only a handful of fifth-level alchemists who can refine the God Transformation Pill. The elixirs for alchemy are extremely scarce, so the God Transformation Pill has always been in short supply. Now that it appears at this auction, it naturally attracts so many Nascent Soul monks.
Although Lin Feng has countless magic weapons on his body now, there are not many elixirs. Although there are some more precious ones, there is not a single pill of the God Transformation Pill. He has always wanted to find this kind of elixir for future use. Now he has encountered it here. If he had been determined to win in the past, he is now thinking about how to rescue Changgong Xiaojing, and he is really careless about other things. Moreover, if he took a picture of the God Transformation Pill here, it would definitely attract countless attention, and there might even be troubles to come to the door. He did not want to delay the time to rescue Changgong Xiaojing, so he did not intend to bid for the God Transformation Pill.
...
After closing your eyes and resting for dozens of minutes in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, the auction started finally.
The number of people in the lobby on the first floor has nearly doubled, almost full, and there are more than ten people in the VIP room upstairs. Moreover, Lin Feng noticed that in a VIP room on the top and fourth floor, there are three Nascent Soul auras, and there are two late stages and one mid stage. There are only one of the five top VIP rooms on the entire fourth floor. I guess the identities of these people are not simple.
However, it is not simple and it is not his own business. Lin Feng just took a brief note and focused on the auction table. A Nascent Soul monk from the City Lord's Mansion came on stage and said a few words in a brief manner, and announced the official start of the auction.
The auction was in full swing. At first, it was a variety of magic weapons, techniques or pills that were of great use to Jindan monks. The competition was extremely fierce. Later, the auction of treasures gradually became advanced and expensive, and fewer people were bidding, but the intensity remained unabated. Some Nascent Soul monks in the VIP room also gradually began to bid. In the end, almost few Golden Soul monks in the hall participated again, and became a competition among the Nascent Soul monks.
Lin Feng waited patiently. Finally, when an exquisite blue jade box was taken to the auction table, his eyes lit up, and he subconsciously sat upright, with a hint of nervousness and expectation on his face.
"The next treasure is one of the final items of this auction - the seventh-level spiritual material 'Blue Qi Stone'!" With the introduction of the host, the blue jade box was opened, and a unique crystal stone with an egg size, full of water blue, and a surface surrounded by misty blue mist was lying quietly in the box.
At the same time, spiritual consciousnesses flocked to us, but then most of the monks in the hall showed a look of surprise because they found that their spiritual consciousness could not get close to this blue Qi stone. Within half a foot of the surrounding area, there seemed to be an invisible barrier, which isolated their spiritual consciousness from the outside.
Only a few cultivators with advanced cultivation were able to penetrate this layer of invisible obstacles to detect the Blue Qi Stone. Lin Feng was naturally one of them. His spiritual consciousness spared a circle on the Blue Qi Stone and took it back. He had no contact with the other people's spiritual consciousness. He flashed a surprise in his eyes and said to himself: "It's indeed Blue Qi Stone! At this size, there should be no problem in repairing the 'that magic weapon'!"
"I don't need to introduce the magic of the Blue Qi Stone. The auction base price for this part is 8 million medium-grade spirit stones. Now... the auction begins!"
Eight million medium-grade spirit stones!!
As soon as the reserve price was released, the hall suddenly became an uproar, and many Jindan monks showed incredible expressions. Judging from their knowledge, this was simply a sky-high price, and even if you sold ten of them, it would not be enough.
"Nine million!"
However, there are naturally people who are not surprised by this price. Even though someone started bidding, the sound came from a VIP room on the left side of the second floor.
"Ten million!" The second voice rang out immediately.
"One thousand one million!"
"Two million!"
"Four million!"
Bidding sounds came one after another, and the price quickly soared to 20 million medium-grade spirit stones in the stunned eyes of the Jindan monks.
"Two five million!!"
At this time, a voice that had never participated in the bidding before suddenly sounded, and the price increased by 5 million medium-grade spirit stones. The atmosphere at the scene suddenly stopped, and everyone's eyes turned to the place where the sound came out - the only VIP room with someone in the middle of the fourth floor.
“…”
Next was a strange silence. The other monks who bid for the bidding were silent collectively because of the high price or some other reason, as if they all gave up the auction.
"Two six million!!"
Chapter completed!
