Green Field Cave is one of the few caves specially opened for Jindan monks. There are many Jindan resources inside. The most attractive ones for Jindan monks are the resources for promotion to the Nascent Soul stage.
Every time the Green Field Cave is opened, several Nascent Soul Ancestors will emerge among the Jindan monks who enter it.
This shows the importance of the Green Field Cave to the Golden elixir monks, which also made Li Shiming very excited.
He looked at the time and saw that there were still about twelve years before the next Green Field Cave would open. He got the 'Cloud Stepping Order' and it happened to coincide with the opening of the Green Field Cave. This was simply
An opportunity tailor-made for him.
The location of the Green Field Cave is random. Only ten days before the opening of the Cave, the location of the Green Field Cave can be found with the help of the 'Cloud Stepping Order'.
Li Shiming got the information he wanted, and he was deeply grateful to Patriarch Yu. No matter what the other party's plans were, it was indeed of great help to him.
He himself is very clear about his situation. Because he tried to cultivate as he pleased, he has five golden elixirs in his body.
Although the five golden elixirs gave him an almost absolute advantage in combat power at the same level, they also brought him great trouble.
He didn't know what would happen if five golden elixirs broke through the elixir and turned into a baby. According to the analysis of the natal magic weapon IBMz15, the energy required for him to advance to the Nascent Soul stage would be far more than that of an ordinary great elder, and it would have to be at least five times that of a baby.
Only with resources did he dare to try.
If he used normal methods to trade the resources of the baby through alchemy, this time would be extremely long.
You must know that he is still a casual cultivator at the moment, and the resources he has access to are those exposed by various forces, and he still needs to compete with other casual cultivators.
Li Shiming practiced selflessly in the cave in Wuqing Mountain. He did not waste every spiritual energy. He, his clone Li Yuanba, Venerable Huijing, and the three living dead all needed to consume spiritual energy.
Recently, there have been no late-stage Jindan monks asking him to make elixirs. He didn't know the reason, but he didn't ask more.
Anyway, his purpose of refining elixirs for the late-stage Jindan cultivators has been achieved. Without the late-stage Golden elixir cultivators, he can have more time to practice.
In fact, this was an order issued by Patriarch Yu, who did not allow the Jindan monks from Wuqing Mountain to disturb Li Shiming's rest before the auction.
A master of alchemy in the late stage of the Golden elixir consumes an astonishing amount of energy in refining a fourth-grade elixir. Ancestor Yu did this for Li Shiming's health, fearing that those late-stage Golden elixir monks who did not know the importance of it would affect Li Shiming's body.
of recovery.
Li Shiming's quiet days did not end until the day of the auction. He walked out of his cave and flew towards the auction house.
The auction house was a separate building in Wuqing Mountain. When he flew closer, he found that the place was already very busy.
This auction is a small auction once a year, and monks above the foundation building stage can participate.
The number of foundation-building monks in Wuqing Mountain alone is a huge number, not to mention the monks coming from nearby Wuqing Mountain.
At this time, it is normal to describe it as a huge crowd. Seeing so many monks, Li Shiming made some calculations in his mind. With so many monks pouring into Wuqing Mountain, Wuqing Mountain would earn a lot of money just from the fees to enter the mountain.
Not to mention that those who can come here are more or less willing to buy.
Fortunately, the entrance channel for the Golden elixir monks is not the same as that for the Foundation Establishment monks, so there is no need for him to wait in line.
He came to the entrance passage of Jindan monks and took out his token. The monk who checked the token took it and placed it on the magic circle in front of him. After seeing the information above, he couldn't help showing a look of surprise on his face.
color.
"Senior, I will send someone to take you to the box right now!" The monk respectfully handed the token back to Li Shiming and said.
He called a monk who was helping him and gave some instructions in a low voice.
Li Shiming didn't expect that the box arranged for him would be a private room, but it didn't matter. It must have been Yu An's handiwork.
With his status, he felt at ease enjoying the box.
In the past, he would not have been able to invite him to an auction of this level.
Under the guidance of the monk, he followed into the auction house.
The interior of the auction house uses a space formation to expand the area. Only in this way can it accommodate a large number of monks.
Li Shiming's box is on the third floor. The auction house is an oval building. The first floor is for the foundation-building auction, the second floor is for the auction of golden elixir stage and above spiritual objects, and the third floor is all private rooms.
The most peculiar thing about the design is that the Jindan monks sitting on the second floor can not only watch the auction on the second floor, but also watch the auction on the floor below, and can also participate in the auction on the first and second floors at the same time.
As for the boxes on the third floor, just like the Golden Pill monks on the second floor, they can watch and participate in the auctions on the first and second floors.
When Li Shiming came to the third floor, he found that the design of the third floor actually had an auction function, but it seemed that because there were few or no fourth-grade spiritual objects this time, the auction function on this floor was not enabled.
The boxes on the third floor were oval-shaped, and there seemed to be no priority. He was taken to a box opposite the auction table.
The monk who led the way bowed and left, and Li Shiming entered the box.
The box is large enough to accommodate dozens of people and appears to be very spacious. A row of soft lounge chairs is facing the direction of the auction table. In front of it is an activated formation. You can control the formation to display the auction screen below for viewing and auctioning.
Sitting in the box, even without the help of the formation, this distance does not actually affect the monk's ability to observe the items on the auction stage. Not to mention the items on the second floor, even the items on the first floor can be clearly seen.
But this formation improved the style of the box a lot, allowing the monks sitting in the box to feel the difference between themselves and the monks below.
He sat on the soft chair and began to study the formation in front of him.
Coming to the Eastern Qi Continent, the biggest benefit to him is the improvement of formation techniques.
Whether it is the formation knowledge he gained or every time he encountered a formation, it was a supplement to his formation.
The formations on the Eastern Qi Continent are different from those on the Northern Shu Continent. His formation, Starlight Sea, has expanded a lot recently.
And his formation star light sea is also a database of the natal magic weapon IBMz15. IBMz15 retrieves the formation knowledge from the formation star light sea, and the researched formation experience is added back to the formation star light sea.
He has a feeling that this Formation Starlight Sea is not that simple, but his current level is still too low to truly explore the wonders of the Formation Starlight Sea.
At this moment, the box door opened and two beautiful female nuns walked in.
They held a pot of spiritual tea and a plate with spiritual fruits in their hands respectively, placed them on the low table in front of Li Shiming, and then consciously exited the box.
Li Shiming raised his eyebrows slightly. The plate containing spiritual fruits contained third-grade spiritual fruits. That was it. It was nothing for a monk who could have a private room to enjoy third-grade spiritual fruits.
What surprised him was the spiritual tea. It was a cup of fourth-grade spiritual tea. Although there was only one tea leaf in the cup, it was a fourth-grade spiritual tea.
At the Wuqingshan auction, four grades of spiritual tea were prepared for the monks in the box. I was afraid that they would not even be able to recover the cost and would suffer a lot of losses.
Any spiritual object that reaches the fourth level is a spiritual object at another level.
However, he soon thought of Ancestor Yu. He refined a furnace of fourth-grade elixir for Ancestor Yu, thinking that this was what Ancestor Yu had prepared for him.
He smiled. Today's auction may bring him into contact with Nascent Soul monks, which is exactly what he wants.
He felt that his level had dropped due to his constant contact with the Golden Elixir monks.
Not long after, the auction started, on the first and second floors at the same time.
The auctions on the first floor are all second-grade spiritual objects, and the second floor begins with the auction of third-grade spiritual objects.
Li Shiming just looked at it. The second and third grade spiritual objects were almost the same to him, and they were not of interest to him.
He took a sip of the fourth-grade spiritual tea, and then shook his head involuntarily, thinking to himself that it was a pity that this spiritual tea was somewhat spoiled.
This is naturally compared with his frying skills, but there is probably no monk in the world of immortality who can compare with his ability to fry spiritual tea.
He fried the spiritual tea in the computer room space with 10 nanometers of control. This kind of frying ability was not possessed by any monk he had ever seen.
Just when he was feeling bored while drinking the fourth-grade spiritual tea, the spiritual object he was interested in finally appeared.
There are eight formation flags in a set up to the fourth level. Although there are fewer formation flags, the quality of the formation flags up to the fourth level is enough to exert a powerful effect in the hands of a formation master.
In the Northern Shu Continent, he has never received a fourth-grade formation flag. This is related to the needs of the Northern Shu Continent.
There are no formation masters among the Nascent Soul Ancestors in the Northern Shu Continent. This also leaves no market for the fourth-grade formation flags. Instead, the fourth-grade formation disks are more in line with the needs of the Nascent Soul Ancestors.
Li Shiming's own level is too low. Even if he obtains the fourth-grade formation materials, he cannot refine the fourth-grade formation flag.
After seeing the fourth-grade formation flag, his heart moved.
The fourth-grade formation flag is not something that the Yuan Ying ancestor can use. He, the great elder, can also use it. However, the Yuan Ying ancestor himself did not have enough fourth-grade resources in the Beishu continent. How could he consider the fourth-grade formation flag for the Golden Core monks?
.
The appearance of the fourth-level formation flag not only alarmed the Jindan monks on the second floor, but there was also movement in the boxes on the third floor.
"3,500 high-grade spiritual stones were sold in box No. 16. Is there anyone with a higher bid? This set of fourth-grade formation flags is extremely rare. It has appeared for the first time in the auctions in the past five years. Miss this one.
Finally, I don’t know how long it will take to meet me again!” The auctioneer’s voice was very encouraging.
Li Shiming just watched it for a moment, and he realized that he couldn't pay for the high-grade spiritual stone.
His net worth is not low, and he even has a lot of fourth-grade spiritual objects. However, most of the fourth-grade spiritual objects in his hands have questionable origins, and he does not dare to take them out in a place like this.
He thought for a while and tapped the call function in the formation.
After a few moments, there was a knock on the door.
"Come in!" Li Shiming said in a deep voice.
"Distinguished guest, what are your needs?" A middle-stage Golden Elixir monk came in. Although he and Li Shiming were both at the Golden Elixir stage, he was extremely respectful to Li Shiming and had a very low attitude.
This middle-stage Jindan monk knows how important Box No. 3 is. Even if it is vacant, monks with insufficient status will not be allowed to enter.
The fact that Li Shiming can sit in box No. 3 shows that Li Shiming has a very high status.
"I need to appraise the value of this elixir. I want to use this elixir to participate in the auction!" Li Shiming took out a jade bottle and handed it over and said.
The monk in the middle stage of Jindan was not surprised. This kind of thing often happens in auctions.
The monks do not have enough spiritual stones, so using spiritual objects to deduct the value of the spiritual stones from the auction house actually puts the monks at a disadvantage.
When a spiritual object is handed over to the auctioneer, it may be subject to a 20% discount, which is why the auctioneer is willing to accept the spiritual object.
"Please wait a moment!" He bowed and said, opening the jade bottle.
After seeing the elixir in the jade bottle, his expression changed, and at the same time he heard a voice in his ear.
"Distinguished guest, do you want to bid for the eight fourth-grade formation flags? Just bid, and your bid can be credited. This fourth-grade elixir can be worth five thousand high-grade spiritual stones!" He said to Li Shiming.
Li Shiming sensed the sound transmission, but was unable to capture the content of the sound transmission.
However, his 'other mind' could hear the thoughts of the monks in front of him, and he knew that this was the order of Patriarch Yu.
Five thousand high-grade spiritual stones can be exchanged for a fourth-grade elixir. This is absolutely a sky-high price, but the value of a fourth-grade elixir is extremely difficult to say.
All the ancestors of the fourth-grade spiritual elixir need it. Although the selling price exists, the fourth-grade elixir has a price but no market. Every time a fourth-grade elixir is auctioned, the transaction is concluded at a sky-high price.
"Thank you, I accept this favor!" Li Shiming said with a smile.
He was not polite and immediately participated in the auction.
"The bid for box number three is 5,000 high-grade spiritual stones!" This time the auctioneer did not say any more encouraging words.
The monks who had participated in the auction were all startled after hearing about Box No. 3.
Li Shiming raised the auction price a lot this time, but it did not reach the bottom line of the eight fourth-grade formation flags in the minds of the monks participating in the auction.
Even so, the monks participating in the auction are also considering whether it is worth selling.
Box No. 3 can only be entered by monks with noble status. Such monks should try their best not to offend.
The monk in Box 3 showed his determination to win by significantly increasing the auction price.
The number of fourth-grade formation flags was too small, and the monks participating in the auction did not have the intention to win.
While the monks were still thinking about it, the auctioneer had already started counting down. His countdown speed was a bit fast. Even if some monks wanted to continue participating, they found it too late.
With a "pop" sound, the auctioneer smashed the hammer.
"Congratulations to the guest in Box 3, you bought the fourth-grade formation flag!" the auctioneer said to Box 3 above, cupping his fists.
Li Shiming handed the fourth-grade elixir to the monk waiting beside him. Not long after, eight fourth-grade formation flags were also sent over, and the deal was concluded.
