Chapter 98: The Auction of Green Fire Flags Again
When Liu Xiao saw Chu Chen staring at her, she turned her head slightly and blushed slightly on her pretty face.
"Thanks, idiot." Liu Xiao smiled and whispered, her heart filled with warmth.
The golden airship is flying rapidly over the vast sky and sea, and the long plain dress is fluttering, carrying a touch of tranquility and floating between the heaven and the earth.
Three days later...
Chu Chen and Liu Xiao flew back to Fengnan Island in a flying boat. Within three days, the two of them eliminated the monsters on the star list.
After handing in the star list, he flew towards the Star Palace Chamber of Commerce.
It was almost dusk when we returned to the city, but the lights were brightly lit, just like daytime. Nanfeng City was open to the public, with crowds of people surging, and it was a world of monks.
The door of the Chamber of Commerce is closed and it is not open for business. It is probably preparing for the auction.
The big man guarding the gate was the one who first entered the Star Palace Chamber of Commerce a few years ago. Now when he saw Chu Chen and Liu Xiao, his expressions were completely different from before.
"Double!" Seeing the two people walking towards him, the big man screamed in surprise. Fortunately, the word "sha" was not blurted out.
"The Xinggong Chamber of Commerce is temporarily closed today. No... I don't know what the two Taoist friends are doing. Do you need Huang to go in and inform you?" The big man bowed and clasped his fists, and said cautiously.
"Okay then, ask your Xinggong Chamber of Commerce Manager Lan to come out and tell Chu Chen that she has something to do with her." Chu Chen said bluntly, that Manager Lan is the woman in purple.
The woman in purple knew the items of the Chamber of Commerce very well, so just ask her if there is a soul flag in the Chamber of Commerce.
"Yes, yes..." the big man answered hurriedly, Shuangsha ordered him not to dare to say no.
Then he hurriedly cast a spell with both hands, and a small teleportation array appeared in front of him.
"Fellow Taoists, please wait a moment. I'll have Master Qinglan here right away."
After saying that, he walked into the teleportation array, and with a flash of white light, he teleported out instantly.
After a while, the white light flashed again, and the man and the woman in purple walked out of the teleportation array.
Seeing Chu Chen and Liu Xiao, they immediately clasped their fists and exchanged greetings. The two of them returned the greeting briefly, and then talked about business.
"Soul flag! What a coincidence." After hearing the words of Chu Chen and Liu Xiao, the pretty face of the purple-clothed woman showed surprise.
"What a coincidence?" Liu Xiao said in surprise.
"You two Taoists don't know that just now, the responsible persons of the Chamber of Commerce were selecting the fine treasures for this auction, and among them happened to be a high-grade spiritual weapon, the Soul Flag." said the woman in purple.
"Choose? Make a price and sell this soul flag to us directly." Chu Chen continued.
"This... I'm sorry, this thing cannot be bought and sold privately." The woman in purple looked a little embarrassed.
"Why, do you think we can't pay for it? Lingshi is definitely not a problem." Chu Chen's tone became a little colder. He didn't believe there were spiritual weapons that couldn't be bought with Lingshi.
"Don't be impatient, Fellow Daoist Chu. I'll wait for the little lady to explain. This soul flag is not a property of the Chamber of Commerce at the moment. In this auction, the three fine treasures were selected from the list of treasures given by the high-level chamber of commerce on the outer island.
, this soul flag happens to be in the treasure list, and the responsible person in our chamber of commerce happened to be discussing what treasure to choose." The woman in purple explained unhurriedly.
"If these two Taoist friends really need this treasure, the little girl will discuss it with everyone from the Chamber of Commerce and select this top-grade spiritual weapon, the Soul Flag, as the exquisite treasure of this auction. Then the two of them will only need this treasure at the auction.
You can just use things, do you two fellow Taoists think this is feasible?" the woman in purple continued.
Hearing this, Chu Chen and Liu Xiao nodded, and Chu Chen said: "So, I really want to thank fellow Taoist Lan. I hope fellow Taoist will not take it to heart because of the abruptness before."
Chu Chen and Liu Xiao returned the favor with fists clasped.
The woman in purple was extremely polite, and she decided this matter temporarily just for the sake of Shuangsha. Originally, things like soul flags would never be selected as high-quality treasures. There were very few monks who used them, let alone
A small and unpopular place like Nanfeng Island.
"Now that it has been decided, the auction will be held in ten days. I hope that the two fellow Taoists will attend on time." The girl in purple said with a faint smile.
"Of course." Liu Xiao said lightly.
After the two returned to the stone room, Chu Chen took a magic source pill and began to meditate. Black energy billowed all over his body, and the evil energy was released. Liu Xiao could feel Chu Chen's strong energy from a long distance away.
A chilling and cold atmosphere.
One day later, Chu Chen woke up from trance again, walked to the elixir furnace, took out various materials and prepared to start refining the magic source elixir again. Last time, he successfully refined three elixirs. Chu Chen only hoped that this time would not be worse than last time.
Just bad.
The Magic Source Pill gave him a taste of the benefits, and the speed of practicing magic skills doubled.
Liu Xiao meditated for a day to refine all the souls of the monster beasts he had swallowed. The red lines between his eyebrows kept flashing. The monster spirit power in his body was very full, and a breakthrough was imminent!
Liu Xiao was a little bit unexpected. Just after refining and devouring the souls of the five fourth-level monsters, there were signs of a breakthrough.
However, it was not the right time to make a breakthrough right now. He had to at least wait until the auction before starting to advance. Liu Xiao forcibly suppressed the expanding demon spirit power.
Chu Chen was naturally aware of this scene. Seeing Liu Xiao open his eyes, he hurriedly asked: "Are you going to advance?"
Liu Xiao said "hmm", and Chu Chen showed a hint of joy on his face.
"Why do you seem to be happier than me?" Liu Xiao said softly.
"Well... of course it's a good thing to advance. It's worth being happy, isn't it?" Chu Chen continued.
After listening to Chu Chen's words, Liu Xiao curled her mouth and felt a little happy in her heart unconsciously. She smiled and said: "Okay, okay, I will start to advance as soon as the auction is over."
"I will help you protect the law then." Chu Chen nodded.
"......Um."
Ten days later, the two of them walked out of the stone room. The dusk had passed, the moon was high, and the night was soft.
Flying towards Nanfeng City, they saw bright lights and a surging crowd in the city. The two of them descended to escape from the light outside the Changsheng Platform.
There were many monks gathered in front of the Star Palace Chamber of Commerce, and they lined up one by one to enter the teleportation array. When the monks saw the two demons, they all consciously got out of the way. Chu Chen and Liu Xiao walked directly into the teleportation array without moving their expressions.
With a flash of white light, they arrived at the entrance of the venue. The two of them walked directly through the crowd and went to the two monks guarding the door. Without saying a word, they took out the pale gold invitations given to them by the woman in purple.
When the gatekeeper monk saw this, his body trembled. He immediately clasped his fists and saluted, and gave the two people a mask. After putting on the mask, one of the monks led Chu Chen and Liu Xiao to open the door curtain and walked into the venue.
As soon as the monks in the venue saw Chu Chen and Liu Xiao entering, they immediately recognized Shuangsha. Although his face was obscured by a mask, Shuangsha's figure and clothing were well known to the monks. Liu Xiao usually wore plain clothes.
Long skirt, this is really easy to identify.
Now the monks looked at the two of them no more than before. The noisy venue suddenly became silent. Everyone looked at Chu Chen and Liu Xiao with a hint of awe in their eyes.
The two people were located in the center of the first row in front of the venue, less than five or six feet away from the booth. This position could be regarded as a slightly exaggerated reflection of their most high-end status.
After a moment of burning incense, the auction officially began. The black-clad host again introduced and exchanged greetings, and then immediately got down to business.
"The treasures of this Chamber of Commerce will definitely not disappoint you fellow Taoists. The first item is called 'Xuanhuo Dan Furnace'. It is a middle-grade spiritual weapon. It is made of red cloud crystals. It is very effective when used to make elixirs.
The rate of elixir formation for third-grade or lower elixirs will be slightly increased. The base price is four thousand spirit stones. Fellow Taoists are welcome to bid." The host in black said unhurriedly.
Spiritual weapons such as alchemy furnaces are very rare. This mysterious fire alchemy furnace attracted the fiery eyes of the alchemists in the venue.
As soon as he finished speaking, there were monks in the venue shouting prices.
"Four thousand two hundred spirit stones."
"Four thousand four hundred spirit stones."
"Four thousand and five hundred spirit stones."
... There is an endless stream of bidders, almost all of whom are alchemists. Alchemists have a higher net worth than ordinary monks, so they are naturally unwilling to give up when they see a middle-grade spiritual weapon, the alchemy furnace.
This Mysterious Fire Pill Furnace also slightly attracted Chu Chen's attention, but it was only a middle-grade spiritual weapon. Chu Chen was a little disappointed. The Cauldron Pill Furnace in the stone chamber was also a middle-grade spiritual weapon, and seemed to be more effective than this Mysterious Fire Pill Furnace.
A little better.
In this case, there was no need to bid. This object was purchased by an alchemist at the venue for five thousand spiritual stones.
The auction continues. Chu Chen and Liu Xiao have too high standards and do not look down on these so-called treasures at all. They are just waiting for the appearance of high-quality treasures. The soul flag must be purchased. With their financial resources, naturally
There was no problem at all, and Chu Chen wasn't worried about it at all.
The black-clad host was in the center of the booth introducing the treasures to be auctioned. The atmosphere in the venue was also very lively. Many monks were bidding one after another. Some monks were even drooling over a treasure.
Half an hour later, the eighteenth treasure had been auctioned, and the host in black in front of the booth said seriously: "Next, there are three fine treasures in this auction, which are also the most precious treasures. Each of them is
Everything is absolutely top quality and I guarantee you will not be disappointed.”
After finishing speaking, a young and pretty maid walked out from the right side of the booth, holding a small dark green flag in her bare hands, and walked lightly to the booth.
Seeing this, Chu Chen finally came to his senses. This was the soul flag. He participated in the auction probably for this thing.
Liu Xiao's eyes were burning under the mask, he was determined to get this thing!
"This soul flag, named 'Green Fire', is a top-grade spiritual weapon. It can absorb even the souls in the later stages of foundation building, refine it and use it for your own use. It can accommodate thousands of souls at the same time." The host in black introduced slowly.
road.
When the monks in the venue heard that it was a high-grade spiritual weapon, the atmosphere immediately ignited. The rarity of high-grade spiritual weapons was extremely rare. Even the huge Star Palace Chamber of Commerce could not find a few high-grade spiritual weapons.
However, the high-grade spiritual weapon auctioned turned out to be a soul flag, which made all the monks disappointed. As long as the soul flag can be refined into the soul that is inhaled, the soul flag can be permanently controlled by this rod. The power of the soul flag is extremely powerful.
But for the monks, it is futile if the souls inhaled are not refined.
Although this green fire flag can swallow the souls in the late stage of foundation building, the soul is extremely difficult to refine. No one in a small place like Nanfeng Island has the method to refine it, and if the cultivation level is not enough, it is easy to suffer when refining the soul.
If there is a backlash, it can range from being damaged to the consciousness to being directly killed in the worst case. The requirements are too high.
Generally speaking, the monks in the venue felt that this thing was very useless, and they couldn't help but shake their heads and sigh.
"The Green Fire Banner, the starting price is fifteen thousand spiritual stones, all fellow Taoists are welcome to bid." When the man in black said this, his confidence was a bit lacking. I don't know why the Chamber of Commerce would choose this kind of thing as a high-quality treasure.
"Fifteen thousand spiritual stones! Did I hear it correctly?" An exclamation came from the venue.
"I have never seen a treasure with such a high reserve price at auction."
"It's so expensive! Isn't this a scam?"
"Humph, you can't afford it anyway, isn't this a scam?" someone joked.
