"Hmph, don't you claim to know everything about the affairs in Changyangfang City? Why can't you find out whether that black-faced man has left or not?" The young Confucian scholar snorted coldly, looking very serious.
Dissatisfied look.
Obviously, this disciple of Haoran Academy still misses the mutated insect egg.
"Yes, I hope the young master will give me some more time, and I will definitely find out the whereabouts of this person." The thin man felt cold in his heart and said hurriedly.
"Very good, until I find out the whereabouts of this person, don't show up in front of me again." The young Confucian scholar couldn't suppress the anger in his heart. He slapped the coffee table, stood up, and walked straight to the second floor of the weapon refiner shop.
…
At the same time, in the back room of another seemingly ordinary shop near Bailian Pavilion, a purple-clothed woman with an extraordinary temperament was playing with a palm-sized golden turtle in her hand. Behind her, stood a
An old man in green with a kind look on his face.
"Mr. Qiao, did you see anything about the fluctuation of spiritual energy just now?" The girl in purple suddenly looked back at the old man beside her and asked lightly.
"Reporting to Miss, according to the old man's judgment, someone should have refined some kind of rare spiritual weapon or elixir. As an alchemist, the old man was lucky enough to refine an earth-grade elixir with five elixir patterns before.
Similar anomalies have occurred. When refining the best spiritual weapons with higher prohibition weights, a similar situation should also occur. Although this person used the prohibition to isolate most of the fluctuations, since the refining from the Taiqing Sect
Utensil shop, most likely the latter." The old man in green bowed slightly and slowly explained.
"Mr. Qiao, please send someone to check whether the Taiqing Sect has sent any masters of weapon refining to take charge here recently." The woman in purple gave the order after thinking about it for a moment.
"Yes, I will send someone to do it right now." The old man in green bowed again and walked out of the secret room.
…
For a period of time that followed, Liu Ming spent most of his time in the shop, except for a visit to the bat tribe's shop where he exchanged thirteen mortal items and four four-level spiritual condensation pills for more than three million spirit stones.
Sit inside.
Although the shopkeeper of the bat tribe was surprised that Liu Ming was able to refine another high-quality elixir so quickly, he also thought that these were all the elixirs refined from those thousand-year-old green congealing fruits.
Although he was amazed in his heart, he couldn't say he was too shocked.
At this time, the spirit stone bag on his waist already contained more than 500 high-grade spirit stones, and the earth-grade condensation pills contained five of the four spiritual patterns, two of the fifth spiritual patterns, and six of the six spiritual patterns.
One.
More than half a month later, the auction finally began.
Near the lake in the center of the city, a middle-aged man in a green soap robe slowly walked out of a side alley. After adjusting the sleeves of his robe, he walked straight to the auction building. It was Liu Ming who had changed his appearance.
Half a month ago, as an envoy of the Taiqing Sect, he indeed received an invitation letter from the Qianmeng Chamber of Commerce, the auctioneer. However, he did not intend to use this object, but decided to disguise himself again and enter the auction as an ordinary casual cultivator.
General Assembly.
At this moment, on the eve of the auction meeting, from time to time groups of monks gathered here from all directions and poured in towards the gate.
After Liu Ming observed it for a while, he paid a fee for the spirit stone and stepped into the auction hall with a grandeur under the watchful eyes of the guards.
After passing through a spacious corridor filled with bustling people, it is the inner hall of the auction, which is divided into two floors. Casual practitioners without invitations can only enter the hall on the first floor, while the second floor is for some special guests who have received invitations.
Prepared by guests.
Liu Ming chose a rather secret and remote corner on the first floor, sat down quietly, and at the same time began to look around at everything in the auction hall.
Surrounding the huge square platform in the middle, there are layers of stairs fan-shaped around the venue on the first floor, each of which is filled with seats.
Liu Ming made a rough calculation and found that the entire venue on the first floor could accommodate thousands of people. It was about an hour before the auction started and there were very few empty seats here.
Based on this scale alone, the auction conference in Changyangfang City has far exceeded the auction Liu Ming participated in in the Canghai Domain.
The seats below are all ordinary seats. There are also VIP boxes on both sides of the second floor of the venue, which are obviously reserved for some powerful people with status and status.
After Liu Ming came in, through his strong mental power, he vaguely noticed that many people had walked into the box. Each of these people had deep auras, and many of them were strong men with cultivation levels above the Crystal Transformation stage. Even the people inside
It is not surprising that there are one or two true elixir realms.
And once these people enter the box, they can no longer detect anything.
After another half an hour, no one came in at the entrance of the venue.
With a "bang" sound, as the door at the entrance slowly closed, a golden light pillar suddenly lit up on the high platform in the middle, and something vaguely like a platform was rising slowly inside.
At the same time, the noise in the venue suddenly stopped, and everyone's eyes were fixed on the golden light beam in the middle.
The golden light slowly dissipated, and three more people in white robes were seen on the jade platform.
In the middle is an old man with white beard and hair. Under the gaze of so many people, he still has a lazy expression. On the left and right sides of him are two middle-aged men, one with a fair complexion and the other with a dark complexion. At this moment
Even under the spotlight, he looked calm.
The corners of Liu Ming's eyes twitched. The two middle-aged men had a dignified aura, and they were obviously masters in the crystallization stage. The white-haired old man was clearly sitting there, but under the scanning of his consciousness, his figure seemed to be there.
, as if it would disappear at any moment.
This old man was actually a strong man in the true elixir realm.
The fair-skinned middle-aged man on the left glanced at the audience and said with a loud smile and a loud voice:
"Welcome all colleagues to attend the auction meeting held by our business alliance. This meeting will be hosted by my residence. The rules are the same as usual. After calling out a minimum price, everyone will bid with spirit stones. If you don't have enough spirit stones, you can also
Use other treasures to be sold to our association in exchange for spiritual stones. Of course, if you don't agree with the price we set, our association can also conduct an on-site auction for you. In short, we will never let you feel that you are at a disadvantage."
What this fair middle-aged man said was clear and logical, and naturally the monks below had no objection.
The white-haired old man and the swarthy man on the right walked to the two chairs behind Mrs. Yu without saying a word and sat down respectively.
"Okay, since everyone has no objections, the auction will begin now." The white middle-aged man looked around and then announced in a loud voice, which echoed throughout the audience.
As soon as the words fell, a maid in white walked out from the backstage. She held a white jade tray in her hands, and the tray was covered with a piece of red brocade. Under the gaze of everyone, she walked onto the jade platform calmly.
The fair and middle-aged man reached out and uncovered the red cloth on the tray, revealing a strange-shaped knife half a foot long.
"The first auction item, the best spiritual weapon, the Qingyin Knife! It contains twenty-eight layers of restrictions. It also has phantom sound effects when attacking, making the opponent fall into a psychedelic state without knowing it, and the mana is greatly reduced. Reserve price
Eight hundred thousand spirit stones, each price increase must not be less than thirty thousand!" the fair middle-aged man said loudly.
As soon as he finished speaking, there was a sudden murmur in the venue.
Although the sword is not as sharp as the sword, it is more domineering. Among all the spiritual weapons, its attack power is second only to the sword. This Qingyin sword is like a magic sound driven by a swordsman who is good at close combat.
Combined with the afterimage, the enemy will be hard to guard against.
Not to mention others, even Liu Ming was a little moved.
Liu Ming looked at the crowds of people who were enthusiastically making bids. In a short time, the price was raised to more than one million, and then he shook his head and closed his eyes to rest.
From the bottom of his heart, although he would like to buy a top-quality spiritual weapon, he would not consider the price of more than one million.
After all, his goal today is Soul Powder. Although he has a lot of spirit stones on his body, he won't spend too many spirit stones before taking this photo.
As a result, after a fierce bidding process, the Qingyin Sword was bought by a man in black for 1.2 million spirit stones.
Liu Ming looked at the boxes on both sides. The people who had just bid were all monks below. None of the distinguished guests in the box seemed to despise the Qingyin Sword, and they all fell silent.
"The auction item below is also a top-quality spiritual weapon, the 'Soul-Destroying Fan'. This fan is made of Yin Demon Blood Jade, mixed with the energy of the Demon Mandrill, and contains thirty layers of prohibitions. The base price is eighty
Wanling Stone, each increase in price must not be less than 30,000." The people in the audience presented another white jade tray, and this time there was a fan lying flat on the tray. The fan bones were white, but the fan surface was pitch black, with a "
Purple skull.
Liu Ming was silent for a while, and another top-quality spiritual weapon appeared, but this time it was a magic treasure.
"Eight hundred thousand spirit stones!" As soon as the white middle-aged man finished speaking, someone immediately started bidding.
"Eight hundred and fifty thousand!" The person who spoke was a monk in blue robes. He had a sinister look on his face and was playing with a bone scepter in his hand. He looked like an evil monk at first glance.
"Eight hundred and eighty thousand!" Another person increased the price.
"Nine hundred thousand!" The man in blue robe snorted, as if he was determined to get this thing.
"Nine hundred and thirty thousand!"
"One million!" The man in blue robe seemed a little impatient and directly exceeded the one million mark.
The value of a top-quality spiritual weapon is generally between 800,000 and 1 million, unless it is a treasure with special effects, such as the Qingyin Knife that was auctioned last time, which has a disturbing effect, but this soul-killing fan
Obviously doesn't have that special ability.
"One million and one hundred thousand!" This time the voice came from the VIP boxes on both sides, and one hundred thousand was added directly.
Many people in the venue were slightly shocked when they heard this and looked over.
It's a pity that there is a forbidden formation on the box, and neither eyesight nor spiritual consciousness can penetrate it at all.
