Gu Zheng originally thought that he could harvest a certain amount of water-attribute inner elixirs at the Blackwater Market this time, which would allow him to turn the source of his natal true water into the spirit of his natal true water.
When he first arrived at the auction house, Gu Zheng saw that there was no water attribute elixir on the auction list, but he thought it was nothing. After all, just because it was not in the auction house, it did not mean that it was not available in the store.
After visiting the first store, Gu Zheng received a water-attribute inner elixir, which made him feel quite happy about visiting the Blackwater Market.
When visiting the second store, Gu Zheng not only did not encounter the water attribute inner elixir, but on the contrary, his mood became less wonderful because of the Taoist in yellow. Among the eighteen stores in the Blackwater Market, Gu Zheng
Not even a single water-attribute inner elixir was found.
“You can’t find it when you want it, and there are so many when you don’t want it!”
The last time Gu Zheng visited the Blackwater Market, he saw more than a hundred water-attribute inner elixirs. Who would have thought that there was only one this time? The gap was really too big.
For Gu Zheng, the purpose of going out to collect water-based inner elixirs this time was to buy ingredients for Jixiang Xiaozhu. But now, something of great significance has not yet been settled, which forced him to change his original plan.
Make changes.
Gu Zheng's original plan was to find enough water-attribute inner elixirs in the Blackwater Market, and after returning to Jixiang Xiaozhu, see if he could turn the source of his natal true water into the spirit of his natal true water. If he could accomplish this,
, then he will stay in Jixiang Xiaozhu for a while longer. But now, he has only harvested one water-attribute inner elixir, and he does not expect that with just this one, he will be lucky enough to accomplish what he wants! So he
He decided that after returning to Jixiang Xiaozhu, he would go out again for a period of time. The length of time he would go out this time was unknown. After all, it would take some time to refine his heart in this mortal world, and he would also return to the world of immortal cultivators.
Only there are more water-based elixirs waiting for him.
The auction started soon, and Gu Zheng stayed alone in Room No. 2 of Tianzi.
The seats in the auction house are roughly divided into two levels. One is the auction hall where everyone gathers, and the other is the private room where Gu Zheng is now. The two different levels of seats actually only differ in the environment in the private room.
It is cleaner. When participating in the auction, because of the private room, the spiritual thoughts will not be tracked by other participants in the auction, thus avoiding causing some hatred.
"Boom, boom, boom!"
The auctioneer knocked on the wooden plate, indicating that the auction was about to begin.
"The first item being auctioned today is an immortal artifact. This artifact is a wood-attribute artifact. Its grade is above average."
The auctioneer took out a green token, then pointed it into the air, ripples appeared in the air, and then the picture appeared.
In the picture, the auctioneer is standing in a forest. After he sacrifices the green token in his hand, the token flashes with light, and the whole forest seems to come alive. Those tens of millions of years old trees all obey the auctioneer's instructions.
The command was very capable of hitting wherever he pointed. Moreover, with the strong wind generated by the token, the dead branches and leaves in the forest turned into a huge wooden dragon. Under the auctioneer's finger, it fiercely
It crashed into a big tree that required four people to hug it.
"Peng!"
A huge sound came from the screen, the old tree was broken by the wooden dragon's blow, and the entire screen disappeared.
"Everyone has seen the power of the Wooden Dragon Token. Now let's start the bidding for this immortal weapon. Its base price is two hundred and fifty Blue Immortal Coins, and any increase in price must not be less than twenty Yellow Immortal Coins."
As soon as the auctioneer's voice fell, bidding sounds immediately sounded in the hall.
"Forty Huangxian coins!"
"Sixty Huangxian coins!"
"Eighty yellow immortal coins!"
"One hundred and twenty Huangxian coins!"
"One hundred and seventy yellow immortal coins!"
"Two hundred and thirty Huang Xian coins!"
"Three hundred Huangxian coins!"
When the price soared to 300 Huangxian coins, the originally restless scene also calmed down.
"Three hundred Huangxian coins once!"
"Three hundred Huangxian coins twice!"
"Three hundred Huang Xian coins three times!"
"make a deal!"
The auctioneer dropped the hammer, and the person who bought the Wooden Dragon Token was the cultivator in yellow who made Gu Zheng a little unhappy.
“I didn’t expect you to be quite rich!”
Looking at all the ancient disputes below in Tianzi Room No. 2, I couldn't help but feel a hint of ridicule on my lips.
Three hundred Huangxian coins, plus the base price of 250 Huangxian coins, the final price of this medium-grade Wooden Dragon Token, converted into twenty-two Blue Immortal coins!
And twenty-two blue fairy coins can almost buy a high-level fairy weapon.
There were a total of forty items auctioned in this auction. After the first item, the Wooden Dragon Order, was auctioned, the auction of the second item began immediately.
There are only two items that Gu Zheng is interested in this time, and they are the twenty-sixth and thirty-ninth items in the auction order, so he only needs to watch the previous auctions.
The auction process was very lively, and there were endless bids. Until the twenty-fifth item was sold, there was no unsuccessful auction. During this process, Gu Zheng discovered that Taoist Huang Yi wanted to
In order to get something, he used his eyes to warn many people when bidding! Of course, most auctioneers chose to turn a blind eye to the warning from his eyes and wondered how to increase the price.
"Item Twenty-Six of this Auction."
The auctioneer looked at the maid next to him, and the maid immediately brought the plate in her hand to him.
The auctioneer lifted the red cloth covering the plate and saw a pure white ginseng lying on the plate that already looked a bit like a child's.
"White Jade Scrophulariaceae is the best resource, and it is already in a semi-transformed state. I don't need to say more about how powerful its medicinal effect will be, and how widespread its uses will be, right?" the auctioneer said.
Indeed, White Jade Scrophulariaceae is one of the better types among the best, and those that have been semi-transformed or fully transformed are even rarer. It can be used to refine many high-grade elixirs, and even if taken directly, it can produce
It is similar to the effect of heavenly materials and earthly treasures.
"The base price of White Jade Scrophulariaceae is six Blue Immortal Coins. Each increase in price must not be less than one. The bidding starts now!"
"A Blue Fairy Coin!"
"Two blue fairy coins!"
"Three blue fairy coins!"
"Four blue fairy coins!"
"Five blue fairy coins!"
The bidding is still so fierce, but the price increase is not very fierce. They are all added one by one. However, the bidder only adds one piece each time. After all, the bidders can add blue fairy coins, which also makes Bai Yu
The price of Scrophulariaceae reached an astonishing height in a matter of seconds.
"Twenty-four Blue Fairy Coins."
Gu Zheng made another bid, and this time he added two Blue Immortal coins at once, which was unprecedented in the auction of White Jade Scrophulariaceae.
For ordinary people, they have given up when the price of White Jade Scrophulariaceae soared to twenty pieces. Although the item was good, it was already worth the money for them, so the only remaining bidders were Gu Zheng and Ziyi Taoist.
two.
After Gu Zheng reported the twenty-four Blue Immortal coins, the scene was quiet for a while. The Taoist in Zi, who originally seemed calm, was obviously anxious. His eyes began to look at the ten private rooms upstairs.
The eyes of the Taoist in yellow, who was sitting next to the Taoist in purple, suddenly widened, and he motioned to Taoist in purple for Room No. 2.
Just through the sound, the bidders could not trace the private room from which it originated. Moreover, the sound coming from the private room also changed the tone, but after all, there were only ten private rooms, and Taoist Ziyi and the others had seen Gu Zheng beforehand.
I asked for room No. 2 in Tianzi, and because the two sides were very unhappy, Taoist Huang Yi really guessed it correctly this time.
From Taoist Huang's point of view, Gu Zheng just couldn't get along with them, so he gritted his teeth at Tianzi No. 2 room.
Due to the rules of the auction, the Taoist in yellow could not threaten him, otherwise he would have started to curse by now.
"Twenty-four Blue Fairy Coins at a time!"
The auctioneer began to push the price diligently.
"Twenty-five Blue Fairy Coins!"
The purple-clothed Taoist gritted his teeth and added another Blue Immortal Coin.
"White Jade Scrophulariaceae, a life-saving thing, I am bound to get it!"
There were rules at the auction, and you couldn't say anything outrageous, but Taoist Ziyi still conveyed his request implicitly.
Gu Zheng was not moved at all. Although the Taoist in purple looked better than the Taoist in yellow, he did not give Gu Zheng a good feeling. What's more, in an auction, whoever pays the highest price wins. He and Taoist in Zi
Since we don’t have any friendship, we naturally won’t give up bidding just because of his words! Although the current price of white jade and black is not low, it also has great significance to the ancient struggle.
"Twenty-seven blue fairy coins!"
Gu Zheng once again increased the price by two coins, using the price to convey his attitude that he was bound to win.
"Okay, I'll give it to you!"
The purple-robed Taoist said he was bound to win, but gave up, and his anger was clearly revealed in his expression when he spoke.
"Twenty-seven Blue Fairy Coins at a time!"
"Twenty-seven Blue Fairy Coins twice!"
"Twenty-seven Blue Fairy Coins three times!"
"make a deal!"
Without the increase in price from Taoist Ziyi, Gu Zheng finally won the White Jade Scrophulariaceae, which can cook high-end food, for thirty-three Blue Immortal Coins.
"There are still thirteen auction items, and the next one will definitely be exciting!"
The Taoist in Huang conveyed his threat implicitly, and in the subsequent auction, he did do things according to his method. He would definitely increase the price several times for anything he thought was for the auction of Tianzi No. 2 House.
Go up. But it is a pity that Gu Zheng was interested in auction item No. 39, but he had not bid before.
Finally, when the thirty-ninth auction item came on the stage, the auctioneer lifted the red cloth on the plate in the hand of the maid and saw a pomegranate-like fruit placed on it.
It looks like a pomegranate on the outside, but it is very extraordinary because it emits a dull red light, giving people an extremely extraordinary feeling.
small book booth
"I don't know what this fruit is called, but I just feel that it is very extraordinary. As usual, the base price for something like this is one Blue Immortal Coin, and the additional price starts at ten Yellow Immortal Coins. Let's start bidding now."
"Ten Huangxian coins."
"Fifty yellow fairy coins!"
Someone had just given the lowest price, and the mad-dog-like Taoist in yellow immediately gave a high price.
Gu Zheng determined that the Taoist in Huang did not know the true value of this 'Changliu Fairy Fruit', and it had become a common practice for him to do so.
After the scene was temporarily quiet, someone quoted 60 Huangxian coins, and the scene became quiet again. The Mad Dog Huang Taoist indeed did not increase the price again.
"Seventy Huangxian coins!"
Someone has increased the price again, but the increase is also relatively mild. People are generally very cautious when it comes to rare items like this. Although it looks extraordinary, it may not necessarily be a good thing.
When the price climbed to one hundred Huangxian coins intermittently, Gu Zheng finally made a quotation.
"One hundred and ten yellow immortal coins!"
Gu Zheng came from a private room, so the voice of the quotation would change every time. However, the eyes of the mad dog in yellow immediately lit up as he stared intently at him!
For Mad Dog Huang Yi Taoist, the change of voice is a kind of protection, but also a kind of exposure. After all, this changing voice must come from the private rooms on the second floor, and Gu Zheng is in one of them.
.
"One hundred and twenty Huangxian coins!"
The mad dog Taoist in yellow raised the price again, and at the same time, he sent a message to the Taoist in purple: "Brother Taoist, do you think this is not that guy?"
"It feels like, if he raises the price a few more times, I will be able to judge whether it is yes or no." Ziyi Taoist said.
"One hundred and thirty yellow immortal coins."
For Gu Zheng, he is bound to get the 'Changliu Fairy Fruit'. This thing is considered an extremely rare food. It is a treasure that combines heavenly materials and earthly treasures with fairy ingredients. Because of its skin, it cannot be eaten by others.
I saw something strange before opening it.
"One hundred and forty Huang Xian coins!"
Mad Dog Taoist increases the price again.
"One hundred and fifty yellow immortal coins."
Gu Zheng's price increase followed closely, but he didn't increase it much. This didn't mean that he didn't have enough fairy coins, it was just that the other party wanted to play, so he just played with them.
"One hundred and sixty yellow immortal coins!"
Mad Dog Taoist raised the price again, and Gu Zheng followed suit again. The two of them soon increased the price of the 'Changliu Fairy Fruit' to two hundred Huangxian coins.
"That's him!"
The purple-robed Taoist sent a message to his two companions.
"Brother Taoist, how can you be sure it's that person?" The Taoist in blue asked curiously.
"When he was bidding on White Jade Scrophulariaceae, he showed that he was determined to win. Now, although he has increased the price steadily, he still shows that he is determined to win. And White Jade Scrophulariaceae and this unknown fruit are obviously related.
The commonality is that he can eat it, so I conclude that it is that person!" Ziyi Taoist said.
"Since he is bound to win, let's give him the next best thing!"
"Three hundred Huangxian coins!"
Mad Dog Taoist Huang added one hundred Huangxian coins at a time, causing quite a stir in the auction hall.
Gu Zheng smiled. His quotation was more cruel than that of the Taoist in Huang. He added two hundred Huangxian coins at a time, bringing the price of the 'Changliu Fairy Fruit' to five hundred Huangxian coins.
Adding the price to five hundred Huang Xian coins, this is also an inferred figure that Gu Zheng came up with based on his analysis of Huang Yi Taoist's troubles with the previous auction items. He felt that this amount of fairy coins was enough to overwhelm Huang Yi Taoist.
, if they dare to join, they really need to be wary of possible letting go.
Indeed, five hundred Huangxian coins is already the limit that Huang Yi Taoist can collect now. Huang Yi Taoist really wants to increase the price again, and add a harsh price, but he has to consider what if Gu Zheng suddenly lets go.
What should I do? I thought it would be a huge loss to buy such a fruit whose name I didn’t even know with five hundred gold coins.
"Forget it, since we have reached this number, let's give it to him." The Taoist in yellow sent a message to his companions.
"What should we do next? We can't take advantage of this guy!" asked the Taoist in blue.
"Of course I can't take advantage of him. The white jade scrophulariaceae I need to marry my Taoist companion is still in his hands!" said the purple-robed Taoist.
"Then let's leave now and wait for him outside the Blackwater Market!" said the Taoist in yellow.
"But there are several exits in Blackwater Market, and this guy looks crazy enough, and his cultivation level shouldn't be too low. Even if we each guard one exit, there are still two exits that we can't guard! Even if it happens by chance
When we get to him, even if one person wants to trap him, I'm afraid he won't be able to drag the other two over!" said the master in blue worriedly.
"No need to separate, I know which exit he will take!" Taoist priest Ziyi affirmed.
Obtaining the 'Changliu Fairy Fruit' with twenty-one Blue Fairy Coins was a huge success for Gu Zheng, and his mood improved a lot.
There was another auction item behind, but Gu Zheng was not interested in it. He quickly completed the meeting with the auction and walked towards the exit of Blackwater Market with his harvest.
Taoist Huang and the others had already left after the auction of the 'Changliu Immortal Fruit'. Gu Zheng naturally saw it too. It wasn't that he didn't think that the other party would block him, but he didn't care at all. He didn't choose to buy anything from the Blackwater Market.
He left through the secret door, but boldly took the long way out.
After leaving the archway and flying forward for a short time, Gu Zheng saw three Taoists in yellow who suddenly appeared in the void.
"Hey, you, I didn't expect that you guys would fool me!"
Gu Zheng was in a really good mood after getting the 'Changliu Fairy Fruit', so much so that he took the initiative to speak and even gave Taoist Huang Yi and the others a smile.
"You are crazy, so of course you know how to go through the front door!" The purple-robed Taoist smiled ferociously, and the earlier hypocrisy was gone from his face.
"It seems like you want to kill me?" Gu Zheng pretended to be scared.
"That's right, because you are so hateful, there is no point in begging for mercy. You must die!" the Taoist in yellow said, licking his lips.
"It seems I haven't killed anyone for a while. Since you all want to die, I'll give you a ride!"
When Gu Zheng's words fell to the ground, the momentum around him suddenly exploded, and the eyes of the three Taoists in yellow widened in an instant.
"this,"
"Is this the Golden Immortal Realm?"
"Run!"
The three Taoists in Huang are all in the early stage of returning to the void. Their strength cannot be said to be too low, but it cannot be said to be too high either. With such a level of cultivation, when it comes to an existence like Gu Zheng, running or not has little effect. If you don't run, you will die quickly.
, running is just a matter of living a little longer.
Of course Gu Zheng knew that if he dispersed his momentum, the three originally rampant Taoists in yellow would inevitably run away like lost dogs, so how could he let them get what they wanted? Letting go of his momentum was not to show off, but just to maximize the chance of success.
Dispatch the energy of heaven and earth.
The violent energy of heaven and earth oppressed the three Taoists in yellow, so that their escape speed became very slow. The true fire spirit in Gu Zheng's body trembled, and he used the "Fire Dragon Technique" he was familiar with.
Although with Gu Zheng's current cultivation level, the body length of the fire dragon is only five feet, an extraordinary fire dragon of five feet is enough to kill three Taoists in yellow. After all, this is not an ordinary fire dragon, this is one that can autonomously
Fighting fire dragons.
This was a conflict without any suspense. Under the double attack of Gu Zheng and Fire Dragon, Huang Yingdao and the other three people soon fell in screams. They originally wanted to loot Gu Zheng, but in the end it was Gu Zheng who looted them.
them.
After killing the Taoist in yellow and the other three, Gu Zheng immediately checked the mustard seed pockets of the three of them, and was lucky enough to find nine water-attribute inner elixirs in them.
Nine water-attribute inner elixirs, plus the one obtained from the Blackwater Market, there are exactly ten water-attribute inner elixirs, which is enough for Gu Zheng to try for another day.
With a good mood, Gu Zheng started his return journey. It would be exactly seven days after he returned to Jixiang Xiaozhu.
After handing the ingredients to the kitchen for cleaning, Gu Zheng entered the room and began to refine the water-based inner elixir.
If this refining goes well and Gu Zheng can use ten inner elixirs to turn the source of his natal true water into the spirit of his natal true water, then he will stay at Jixiang Xiaozhu for a while and hand over the basic cultivation techniques to Huang
After Ying and others, he gave them the most basic "Fire Control Technique" and "Water Control Technique" in cooking magic.
But if he still can't develop the true water spirit of his life, then Gu Zheng's own "Water Control Technique" is not perfect, and he will naturally be embarrassed to hand it over to Huang Ying and others, then he will have to follow the instructions he had at the Blackwater Market.
The plan is to return to the world of immortal cultivators for a while, and after practicing the true water spirit of one's destiny, come to Jixiang Xiaozhu and teach Huang Ying and others.
Gu Zheng spent a day refining ten water-attribute inner elixirs, but the result was still the same as before. The source of the true water of his life had not changed at all.
In the next few days, Gu Zhengjiang taught Huang Ying and others the exercises, and then bid farewell to Bai Li.
Although Gu Zheng's sudden farewell made Bai Li a little reluctant, he was not unprepared mentally. After all, Gu Zheng was also an immortal cultivator, and it was impossible for him to stay in Jixiang Xiaozhu all his life.
Huang Ying and others were even more sad. Although Gu Zheng did not accept them as disciples, they regarded Gu Zheng as their master. Now that the master is leaving, they don't know when they will meet again. How can they do this?
Not sad.
"Don't look so gloomy all the time. It makes me unhappy when I leave. I have something to do when I go back, and it's not like I'll never come back again. Make me laugh now, laugh loudly!"
Gu Zheng had a look on his face, as he usually scolded Huang Ying and others, and his face, which was familiar to Huang Ying and others, also made Huang Ying and others laugh in obedience.
"Haha, hahaha,"
Amid the slightly embarrassed laughter of Huang Ying and others, Gu Zheng's figure disappeared from the extremely fragrant building.
