A group of people walked along the east corridor, circled half a circle, and entered the auction house directly.
The interior of the auction house is a huge hall, with more than a thousand seats inside, arranged one step at a time up the stairs.
The closer the seat is to the front, the higher the status.
Chen Pao led Li Feng, Lu Tao and others to the last few rows and sat down quietly, waiting for the auction to begin.
Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!
As time went by, more and more people entered the auction house, and the hall gradually became noisy, with people moving around everywhere.
In the hall, the light was dim, but as a demon hunter, Li Feng could clearly see the environment.
We even found many familiar faces in the crowd, including Wumeng from the Blood Ax Team, Huo Biao from the Thunder Tiger Team, Wang Meng from the Fire Lion Team, etc.
There are also some family elders that Li Feng met during the demon hunter assessment process.
It seems that this auction is indeed very attractive. It is incredible that these big names can be gathered together.
After the whole process lasted for a while, a large number of guards maintained order, and the chaotic scene gradually subsided. Everyone sat down and waited quietly for the auction to start.
After a while, an old man in black robes with a broad face and meticulously groomed short silver hair gracefully walked up to the spacious high platform, looked around, stretched out his hands and spoke the opening remarks with a smile.
"Dear guests, you have been waiting for a long time. I am Nangong Sheng, the host of this auction."
"Presumably the guests who have participated in many auctions must have dealt with the old man. Everyone is an old acquaintance."
"So I won't say too many polite words, so as not to be disliked by all the guests, haha." Nangong Shenglang laughed, and then said angrily: "Now, I would like to invite you for today's first auction item."
As soon as the host appeared, there was a commotion and bursts of laughter in the hall, but it soon subsided.
Because the exciting show has already begun.
As the host gave an order, two attendants immediately came over from behind the scenes carrying a brocade box made of red-grained gold and wood.
"Old rules, for our first auction item, we should open the eyes of the guests first and create a little atmosphere." Nangong Sheng said with a smile, then turned to the attendant behind him and reminded: "Turn off all the crystal lamps."
When the attendant heard Nangong Sheng's words, he nodded respectfully, turned around, ran down, and instantly extinguished all the crystal lanterns in the hall.
After the lights were turned off, the entire hall was pitch dark, and a series of noises arose.
"Why turn off the lights?"
"Nangong Sheng, what kind of tricks is this old guy playing?"
"Huh, I just like to make mysteries."
Just as everyone was talking about it, suddenly, a hazy blue light burst out from the high platform, illuminating the entire hall, and the air suddenly became much cooler.
After looking closely, he discovered that the source of the light was actually a blue orb the size of a fist.
"Holy shit, it's actually a water droplet."
"This old man, after working on it for a long time, it turned out to be a water-proof bead."
"Tch, I thought it was some kind of incredible treasure."
Li Feng also noticed the orb that glowed with bright blue light on the high platform, and found that it looked familiar. After careful identification, he found that this orb was exactly the same as the orb that he found on an ancient sunken ship in the deep sea.
It turns out that the first treasure in the auction is actually a water-repellent bead.
"Everyone, have you ever heard of water-avoiding beads? This thing is very rare." At this time, Nangong Sheng began to fully demonstrate his eloquence.
"With it, you can explore the deep sea and breathe freely like a fish."
"This is an important treasure used by the fishmen to build the palace. This opportunity cannot be missed, and it will never come back again."
"The starting price is one thousand gold coins, and each bid is one hundred gold coins."
Following Nangong Sheng's order, all the crystal lanterns in the hall lit up, and each guest began to bid.
"One thousand one hundred gold coins!"
"One thousand and two...!"
"Fifteen hundred.."
"two thousand...."
Dozens of guests competed to bid, and the bidding price soared from one thousand gold coins to five thousand gold coins. Finally, the bid was won by a fat noble lady.
This water-proof bead is a very special treasure. Its main function is to isolate the sea water and form an independent space.
Carrying this kind of treasure is perfect for adventures in the deep sea.
If you buy it in a very formal and high-end large store, it will cost at least 10,000 gold coins.
However, the guests who came to the auction were all experienced people, and the water-proof beads had no effect except to avoid water.
Unless those rich and wealthy people take a fancy to it and put it as a decoration at home, but for demon hunters, it is simply worthless and has very little effect.
It is simply a pity to throw away and useless to hold.
Almost no demon hunters would be interested in such common treasures.
This auction item may have been collected by some gold prospector from an abandoned ship on the sea. It came from an erroneous source and had nowhere to take action, and then put it here for auction.
Nangong Sheng was very happy after selling his first auction item.
Then he said solemnly: "Everyone, this water-avoiding bead is just an appetizer. The real treasure is about to appear. Please open your eyes and take a good look."
Hearing what Nangong Sheng said, the entire hall suddenly became quiet. Everyone opened their eyes and looked towards the high platform.
Only two waiters were seen, struggling to carry a rectangular object from behind the scenes. It was covered with a red cloth. Nothing could be seen clearly, and it looked very mysterious.
The waiter gently put the things on the table, then turned around and left quickly.
Nangong Sheng looked around the audience and said with a mysterious smile: "Everyone, this is a real treasure."
"Before that, are you interested in taking a guess?"
Hearing what he said, the guests sitting below were not happy. A middle-aged fat man in a purple robe said: "Hey, old man Nangong, we are here to auction things, not to listen to your opera."
"That's right, Nangong God, can you stop showing off and save everyone's time?"
"So much nonsense."
When Nangong Sheng heard the voice full of complaints coming from below, he immediately said with enthusiasm: "In that case, I'll stop nagging you."
"Then please take a good look at this treasure."
Then, he took a step forward and lifted off the red cloth covering it, revealing an ice-blue round egg the size of a basin, glowing with green light all over.
"Hey, what is this?"
"An egg, good boy."
"I've seen this thing before. It's the egg of the ninth-level magic beast Ice and Snow Phoenix!"
"My God, I can actually get something like this."
Seeing this strange ice-blue round egg, the entire hall exploded into an uproar.
"Okay, let's not talk nonsense. This is indeed the egg of the ninth-level magic beast Ice and Snow Phoenix. It was snatched from Ice and Fire Island by three nine-star warriors at a heavy price." Nangong Sheng saw the eyes of the guests below shine and he was immediately happy.
Go up to the tip of your eyebrows.
"The bidding price starts from 200,000 gold coins, and each bid is no less than 10,000 gold coins."
Following the host's order, countless people began bidding frantically.
"Twenty-one thousand!"
"Two hundred and fifty thousand."
"Three hundred and fifty thousand."
"Four hundred thousand."
"Eight hundred thousand."
The eggs laid by ninth-level monsters are indeed very attractive. If they are hatched in the future, they will be able to control a ninth-level monster with unlimited potential.
There is no doubt about the destructive power and deterrence of any ninth-level monster.
What's more, it's a bird and monster egg with the ability to fly.
The bidding for this monster egg has just started, and the price has skyrocketed.
From 200,000 gold coins all the way to 2.05 million gold coins, the sky-high prices shouted out were simply outrageous.
Sitting in the hall, Li Feng couldn't help but hold his breath when he heard the customers asking for prices wildly. He was so excited that he jumped up and down.
"Damn, these guys are so rich. Who on earth can raise such crazy prices?"
"If I were so rich, I would definitely have a loud voice."
"Haha, this scene is really exciting, but let's just watch it."
Just feeling the atmosphere of spending money like water can make people feel excited.
It's a pity that Chen Pao and the others don't have any money, so they can't get their turn to raise the price no matter what.
Because the wealthy locals sitting below them and calling out prices are all top figures in their families who are either rich or noble, and hold large sums of wealth in their hands.
For them, auctioning a treasure with hundreds of thousands of gold coins is as easy as drinking water.
When Chen Pao, Lu Tao, and Zhang Lei saw this crazy scene, they all had no choice but to smile, as if they were just watching a show.
The round egg of the ninth-level magical beast Ice and Snow Phoenix was finally bought by a top family patriarch, spending a total of 2.75 million gold coins, and the old man didn't blink an eye.
After the second treasure was auctioned, Nangong Sheng began to auction the third treasure.
When this treasure was brought up, it was placed on a log plate covered with red cloth. From a distance, it looked like a metal fragment the size of a palm.
The metal fragments took on the shape of an irregular polygon, and were purple-red all over, with pits and small holes everywhere. Under the illumination of the crystal lamp, they glowed with a strange golden halo.
Nangong Sheng laughed loudly and said: "Everyone, please take a look at this treasure. It is a piece of metal fragment. It looks very ordinary, right?"
"Old Nangong, you're being mysterious again, aren't you?"
"Stop talking nonsense and get straight to the point."
“I like doing this all day long.”
Regular customers who have participated in auctions many times know that Nangong Sheng has a special hobby, which is that every time an important item appears, he always pretends to be mysterious and show it off to whet everyone's appetite.
This made many old customers very unhappy. Some people started to curse and curse on the spot regardless of the occasion.
Nangong Sheng saw that some of the old guests were angry, so he quickly smiled and said, "Okay, no more nonsense, let's get straight to the point."
"This fragment is not an ordinary fragment. It is an artifact of an extraordinary god. It was a fragment that fell after being accidentally damaged during a fight with a powerful enemy."
Hearing the word artifact, the entire hall suddenly became silent, and pairs of eyes widened.
What, this metal fragment turned out to be a piece of artifact that fell off.
God, this is so rare.
An artifact, an artifact, something that can be related to God is definitely a priceless treasure.
What is an artifact? It is a weapon used by extraordinary gods or even peak experts who are more powerful than extraordinary gods.
These weapons followed their masters to conquer the north and south, and after countless years of nourishment by essence and blood, they gradually acquired a trace of their master's charm and spirituality before they could be called artifacts.
Divine weapons, whether for warriors or ordinary mortals, are unattainable existences. They are extremely powerful and can be called priceless treasures.
Even if it is a piece of metal fragment that fell from the artifact, it is definitely not comparable to ordinary iron.
No wonder Nangong Sheng put this metal fragment up for auction. It turned out to be a fragment that fell from an artifact. For mortals, it was definitely a precious treasure.
With this thing, if you can melt it and mix it with other metals to make a weapon, not to mention its power, but in terms of sharpness and toughness, it will definitely be far superior to ordinary iron.
"Okay, the bidding price starts at 200,000 gold coins, and the bidding price is no less than 50,000 each time." Nangong Sheng said loudly, with a sly smile like an old fox.
"Three hundred thousand gold coins."
"Five million."
"Six hundred and fifty thousand."
"Seven hundred and fifty thousand."
As the first bidding started, countless people began to rush to bid, and the bidding price soared. In just a short time, it soared from 200,000 gold coins to 1 million gold coins.
Finally, he was photographed by a burly man and spent 1.2 million gold coins.
The charm of the artifact is that it is huge, even if it is a fragment, it attracts countless people to grab it.
Subsequently, Nangong Sheng auctioned seven or eight collections in a row.
For example, Longyan wood can nourish the breath of the soul.
A mica boundary stone that can nourish wounds.
A special metal that can be used to create artifacts, Liucai Ziying.
There is also beluga oil that can strengthen muscles and bones.
The precious items were sold one after another, resulting in sky-high prices one after another. The auction house made a lot of money, and the atmosphere was lively.
Finally, the three beast soul blood crystals entrusted by the Wolf Fang Team to the auction house were finally put up for auction.
As soon as this treasure was taken out, it immediately attracted the attention of a large number of demon hunters and warriors.
Many warriors and demon hunters have learned about the miraculous effects of beast soul blood crystals. As long as they can resist the evil energy contained in them, absorbing one can fully double their strength.
But one disadvantage of absorbing this thing is that the internal evil spirit is too strong and the mind is not firm enough, so it is easy to become obsessed and turn into a beast that eats raw hair and drinks blood.
Nangong Sheng's starting bid was 100,000 gold coins, and the bidding price should not be less than 10,000 gold coins.
Following the order, the bidding skyrocketed. Although it was not as exaggerated as artifact fragments and ninth-level magic beast eggs, the jump in the amount was also very huge.
"One hundred and ten thousand gold coins."
"One hundred twenty thousand..."
"One hundred and fifty thousand..."
"One hundred and eighty thousand...!"
After a round of crazy bidding for the three Beast Soul Blood Crystals, the dust finally settled and the price was 520,000 yuan.
According to the draw ratio at the auction house, the money that ended up in the hands of the Wolf Fang Team was approximately 416,000 gold coins.
Such a huge fortune was considered a huge profit for the embarrassed Langya team. Chen Pao and the others were beaming with excitement.
However, there was a special treasure among them that caught Li Feng's attention.
It was a magical herb called Ice and Snow Spirit. It was only about five inches long, with four diamond-shaped leaves, and an ice-blue fruit the size of a fingernail grew on the top, with a strange blue halo glowing all over its body.
.
A faint icy blue light shone, a layer of cold air lingered, and a layer of pale white frost condensed around the desk.
The bidding price starts at 500,000 gold coins.
In the end, it sold for a sky-high price of 1.7 million gold coins.
After taking this product, it can refresh the mind, quickly enhance the power of the soul, and purify all evil thoughts in a short period of time, leaving the mind in an extremely calm state.
After learning about the strange effects of this treasure from Chen Pao and others, Li Feng's eyes suddenly lit up and he became extremely excited.
"After taking this ice and snow spirit, it immediately absorbs the beast soul blood crystal. Wouldn't it be able to easily resist the evil spirit and quickly increase its strength?"
Hearing Li Feng's question, Chen Pao nodded: "Well, yes, the ice and snow spirit does have this strange effect."
"It is also the only special treasure that can resist the evil spirit of blood crystal so far."
"It has been known to everyone for a long time."
"As you just saw, this thing was sold for a sky-high price of 1.7 million gold coins. You can imagine how precious it is."
Li Feng looked confused and said: "Since this ice and snow spirit is a special herb, there should be a place where it can be nurtured, right?"
"If you find a place like this, just go and mine it and you're done."
Chen Pao sneered and said, "You put it lightly. If ice and snow spirits were really that easy to obtain, they would be all over the streets."
"It's not as simple as you think."
Li Feng asked: "Brother Pao, do you know where this ice and snow spirit can be conceived?"
"Do you still want to pick it? I advise you to give up." Chen Pao turned his head to look at Li Feng and couldn't help but sigh.
"First of all, the place where the spirit of ice and snow was born must be an extremely cold and extremely dark place."
"Then in desperate places such as inaccessible cliffs, it absorbs a lot of cold air and the essence of the moon and slowly grows."
"Over the years, it has been said that there are only nine places where the 'Ice and Snow Spirits' were born on the Senluo Sea."
"Anywhere where ice and snow spirits have been born will attract countless warriors and demon hunters to pick them, but most of them return without success."
"There are also some people who went deep into the inaccessible snow-capped mountains, never to return, and never heard from again."
Li Feng continued to ask: "Has no one ever picked the spirit of ice and snow?"
"Yes, but these warriors who harvested the ice and snow spirits were either killed or bribed by some big families after they came back, and have never been seen again." Chen Pao said with a bitter smile.
When Li Feng heard this, he couldn't help but secretly dumbfounded.
The Spirit of Ice and Snow is indeed magical. After taking it, it can easily resist the erosion of the evil spirit of the beast soul blood crystal. This is a treasure that many warriors and demon hunters dream of!
Just thinking about it makes me greedy.
You should know that although beast soul blood crystals are rare, you can still occasionally have the opportunity to fight for them on the sea, or collect them in some dangerous places.
However, because the Ice and Snow Spirit is too rare and precious, this kind of treasure has always been priceless.
Every time it appears, it will inevitably cause a lot of looting by countless forces.
