Chapter 1929 Who knows that God’s calculations are not as good as those of man’s calculations
Seeing that there were no more needed spiritual grasses or crystals in the nearby stalls, she continued walking towards the City Lord's Mansion. She had inquired when she first entered the city, and the Luo family's auction was being held at the City Lord's Mansion tonight.
She had just taken two steps when her eyes inadvertently glanced at the stall next to her, and she suddenly stopped again.
This stall mainly sells magical artifacts, most of which are earthly artifacts. There are only a few heavenly artifacts. It is not at the same level as other stalls that display a bunch of heavenly artifacts and even sporadic semi-artifacts, so she didn't pay attention at all just now.
.
Only then did I realize that there was a bronze drum less than half a foot in diameter placed at the very edge of the stall. The drum body was rusty and incomplete, and the drum surface was also uneven. If it weren't for the vague runes that remained, it would have looked like nothing.
Like a piece of scrap metal.
But Gu Qingxi knew that this was by no means some scrap metal, but a divine weapon, a divine weapon that even she would be amazed by.
This artifact is called the Nine Heavens Thunder Drum, and it is the treasure of the ancient sect Tianlei Sect.
It was a very special sect, and every disciple in the sect possessed thunder spirit roots.
As we all know, thunder spirit roots are alien spiritual roots and are not included in the Five Elements, so they are extremely rare. Even if they have thunder spirit roots, many people are unable to practice them because their attributes are too complex.
For this reason, the Tianlei Sect has never had more than a hundred disciples since the day it was founded. In terms of number of people, it is an extremely small sect, not even comparable to the slightly more decent Huangpin Sect.
But for such a sect with a pitifully small population, it became one of the heavenly sects less than a century after its founding. It then flourished for thousands of years, and no sect dared to look down upon it.
On the one hand, this is because of the powerful thunder spells of the disciples of the Tianlei Sect, and on the other hand, it is because of the Nine Heavens Thunder Drum in front of them.
With the help of their own thunder spirit roots, they can trigger thunder from the sky and store the thunder power in the Nine Heavens Thunder Drum.
Once such divine power is released, even the powerful ones of Mahayana and Dzogchen will find it difficult to resist.
In her previous life, Gu Qingxi also had the Nine Heavens Spiritual Vein and the Thunder Spirit Root. After hearing about the magical effects of the Nine Heavens Thunder Drum, she also thought about refining a similar magic weapon. However, she tried countless times and failed to figure it out.
Suitable refining method.
If she switched to other artifacts, she could discuss it with the other party and borrow it to learn a thing or two, but the Nine Heavens Thunder Sound Drum was too important to the Tianlei Sect, and the drum was always used to kill people, so as soon as this idea came up, she
She was immediately rejected.
Then the war between humans and demons broke out. Although the Tianlei Sect was strong, it had too few disciples. In the middle of the war, the sect was destroyed and everyone died.
According to her understanding of the Tianlei Sect, the Nine Heavens Thunder Drum must have been destroyed on the spot with the death of the last sect leader, so she completely stopped thinking about it.
Who would have known that after thousands of years, she would see the Nine Heavens Thunder Drum again.
"How much does this bronze drum cost?" Gu Qingxi picked up the Nine Heavens Thunder Drum and asked.
"Two hundred thousand spiritual stones." The young monk behind the stall immediately stood up and said with a smile on his face.
The magical artifacts in his stall were too ordinary, and no one had paid attention to them for several days. This was the first potential customer.
Although this Nine Heavens Thunder Drum is in disrepair, as long as you have a little discernment, you can see that the materials are good, and it cannot be worth only 200,000 spiritual stones.
Thinking about the past glory of Tianlei Sect, she couldn't help but feel sorry for those Lei Sect who were once famous all over the world. The powerful ones feel unfair.
"If you really want to buy it, one hundred thousand spirit stones will do." Of course the young man didn't know what Gu Qingxi was thinking. It took him several days to meet a customer. He was afraid that she would run away, so he quickly lowered the price.
"..." Then, Gu Qingxi became even more speechless.
"Let's just think of it as making a friend. Fifty thousand, fifty thousand?" Seeing that she didn't even say anything, the young monk became even more worried and gritted his teeth.
"I said, if you do this business, you are really not afraid of losing money." Gu Qingxi couldn't help but ask.
What does this mean? The young man looked at Gu Qingxi in confusion, confused by her half-smiling expression.
At this time, a group of people walked into Luoshui City and saw Gu Qingxi from a distance. One of them raised his eyebrows and showed deep hatred in his eyes. It was Ke Mingde, the leader of Taiyi Sect.
Over the years, in order to help Yudanfang gain a firm foothold in Fenglan City, Taiyi Sect has spent countless efforts, manpower and material resources.
I thought that if the Jade Alchemy Workshop invited Sun Alchemy Saint, they would be able to drive the Shendan Pavilion out of the world of cultivation in one fell swoop, thereby cutting off the foundation of the Pianyun Sect.
In this way, it would only take a few decades at most for the Taiyi Sect to take over the Pianyun Sect's ten thousand year foundation as its own.
Who would have thought that God's calculations are not as good as those of humans, and Sun Tingxuan, who is known as the best alchemy sage in the world, actually lost three games in a row, and lost to Gu Qingxi cleanly.
Taiyi Zong stole the chicken but lost the rice, and many years of planning were ruined in one day.
Because he repaid kindness with hatred, he was despised and became a laughing stock overnight.
Ke Mingjian hated Gu Qingxi deeply. He wanted to wait for a while and wait for the limelight to subside, then secretly take revenge, but he did not expect that he would see Gu Qingxi again so soon.
"Sect Master Ke, I wonder how you have considered what my grandfather told you last time?" asked a young man next to him.
This man was of average height and average appearance, but his demeanor was arrogant and somewhat pretentious.
"Your Majesty, the Master of the Palace, values such things. If our Taiyizong refuses, wouldn't it mean that we are ignorant of good and evil? I would like to trouble Mr. Mu to tell the Lord of the Palace that our Taiyizong has agreed to the alliance." Ke Mingjian was silent for a moment, with a tangled look on his face, but in the end
He still gritted his teeth and said.
He came to Luohe City this time to participate in the Luo family's auction, but not because of the Luo family's invitation.
When the Luo family was at its peak, the Taiyi Sect was still just an earth-level sect. If it weren't for the support of the Pianyun Sect, it wouldn't even have a foothold in Lingjingtian.
How can such a sect be qualified to associate with the Luo family?
When he came to the auction, he actually took advantage of the young man next to him.
The young man's surname is Mu, and his name is Mu Shaobo. He is the only grandson of Mu Zhongchuan, the master of Aotian Zong Palace, and the young master of Aotian Zong Palace.
In the secular world, when people mention Lingjing Tian, the first thing people think of is the Tianpin Sect and the Tianpin Family.
But in Lingjingtian, everyone knows that the most powerful one in the world of cultivation is not the sect family, but the sect.
To elaborate, the sect and the sect family are actually inextricably linked. The people who originally founded the sect were either disciples of the sect who set up their own school, or they were descendants of the depressed family who were just trying to survive.
They just hugged each other to keep warm.
However, after tens of thousands of years of development, the sect has more and more disciples and its power has become larger and larger. It has already surpassed the sect family. In many cases, the sect is even called the Immortal Mansion.
