At 6 o'clock in the morning, the treasure competition started on time.
An old man with a white beard from the Jiuding Chamber of Commerce stood on the central stage and began to take out treasures one by one.
"This man Li Wenshi, although his cultivation is only perfect in internal training, his keen eyes are very good at identifying treasures! In the capital, his reputation is no weaker than that of some innate warriors!" Wen Shuai introduced.
"This first treasure still follows the old rules of our treasure competition association - three pieces of low-grade black stones, bid separately!" Three warm and round pebbles appeared in Li Wenshi's hand, "The use of low-grade black stones, most of you here
It’s all clear; but every time there are new faces in the treasure competition, I, a talkative old man, should introduce them again!”
"The low-grade black stone contains innate profound energy. If it is used by a martial artist with internal training, it can quickly improve its cultivation. If it is used by a martial artist who has perfected the internal training, there is a high probability of breaking through to the innate!" In just a few words, Li Wenshi explained the characteristics of the low-grade black stone.
The preciousness was explained clearly, "The base price is one hundred thousand taels of gold per piece!"
"Low-grade black stone? One hundred thousand taels of gold each?" Xu Ming just wanted to say, it's really expensive. "Ten of these stones cost one million taels of gold, which is enough for me to buy micro-level realms in the artifact store.
!”
"One hundred and five thousand taels."
"One hundred and one hundred thousand taels!"
In the public gallery of the treasure competition, many warriors and dignitaries made bids.
At this moment, Xiao Gua, who had been missing all this time, actually reacted: "A low-grade black stone has been detected... I would like to remind the host that 1 low-grade black stone can be exchanged for 1 level 2 hanging point."
"Can it be exchanged for level 2 hardpoints?" Xu Ming couldn't help but take another look at the three low-grade black stones.
"What, Brother Xu, are you interested in low-grade black stones?" Wen Shuai noticed.
"Boss, what do you want? Buy, buy, buy!" Sun Ji shouted; but then, he discovered, "One hundred thousand gold a piece? Or is it the lowest price? What a lie! How can you afford this!"
In an instant, Sun Ji shut up.
"I'm not very interested, I'm just curious to see it." Xu Ming said, "Is this thing very scarce?"
Xu Ming now knows that there are only two things that can be exchanged for level 2 hard points. One is the Na Ring, like the Na Ring on Xu Ming's hand, which can be exchanged for 2 level 2 hard points; the other is the low-grade Xuan on the stage.
stone.
Although Xu Ming won't be able to use it for the time being, he still needs to know about the Level 2 hardpoint.
"It's not that it's scarce, it's just very valuable!" Wen Shuai said, "The real upper-class people in Yunqi City can buy one hundred thousand taels of gold, and they can have as much as they want. Let's compete for treasures.
The few pieces that were auctioned at the auction were actually sold to those who barely made it into the upper class of society, because they had no other way to buy them."
"Oh!" Xu Ming understood.
As long as it's not too scarce, it's easy to handle. If you need level 2 hardpoints in the future, there should always be a way to get some.
"Actually, this low-grade black stone has another purpose!" Wen Shuai said, "That is to serve as currency!"
"currency?"
"That's right! Among innate masters, they almost never use gold to trade, because to them, gold is no different than rotten iron. Generally, they will choose to use low-grade black stones as currency!"
"It's still currency..."
During the treasure competition, rare treasures were released one after another.
There are rare medicinal materials that can only be picked in the mountains where monsters are rampant, there are strange ores that can only be cultivated in extremely dangerous environments; there are elixirs from the hands of alchemy masters, and there are shabby weapons, calligraphy and paintings, antiques with a lot of history...
The upper-class people of Feiyun Kingdom who gathered here began to bid for the treasures they urgently needed. There were also some tycoons among the tycoons who saw something they liked and bought it as long as the price was acceptable!
"The following treasure is a rare occurrence in our treasure competition!" Li Wenshi hesitated for a while before slowly taking it out.
"The Phantom Sea Demonic Insect - an insect that can be encountered but not found in the boundless desert; but some people say that it is not an insect, but a grass..." Li Wenshi introduced, but Xu Ming felt that this thing looked like
Cordyceps Sinensis, "This thing appears in the desert where Yang Qi is raging, but it happens to be a very Yin thing. As for its function, I won't go into details. Those who know it will understand it, and those who don't understand will not buy it and play with it——
The base price is fifty thousand taels of gold!"
The main function of the Phantom Sea Demonic Insect is to be used as an auxiliary drug when refining elixirs. It is not precious even if it is said to be precious, but it is precious even if it is not precious - because since it is only an auxiliary drug when refining elixirs, it is destined not to be too precious.
; But this thing is so hard to come by. You will only come across it if you are lucky. If you are not lucky, you will be exhausted and can't find even half of it. So once it appears, the price will not be very low.
I don’t know how many warriors want to make money from the Phantom Sea Demonic Insect; but most of them don’t make any money, but get lost in the desert.
The treasure competition has been going on for so long, and Wen Shuai has never made a move; but now, he was so excited that he stood up directly.
"Mr. Du wants to refine an elixir in an attempt to achieve innate perfection. We have all the other medicinal materials, but we are just missing this magical sea demon insect!"
"Is Mr. Du going to attack the innate perfection?" Xu Ming asked in surprise.
If Du Lao can successfully attack, then Wen Shuai's many disadvantages in the fight for the throne will be wiped out! The intimidation of an innate and perfect master is no joke!
"I'm just trying to attack first, to feel how difficult it is to break the bottleneck from the late innate stage to the innate perfection. I'm afraid it's still too early to truly attack the innate perfection!" Wen Shuai didn't say anything else, that is - Mr. Du
If you want to step into innate perfection, your chances are slim!
"Fifty thousand taels!" Wen Shuai immediately bid and shouted.
"Third Prince Wenshuai bid fifty thousand taels!" Li Wenshi said calmly. He knew that the price of such rare items would usually be much higher than the reserve price.
"Oh, I finally made a bid!" Wenman had been waiting for Wen Shuai to bid, "Illusion Sea Demonic Insect, although I have no use for it, but even if I buy it for collection, I won't let you get it easily!"
"Sixty thousand taels!" Wenman shouted.
"Sure enough!" Wen Shuai clenched his fists, "Wen Man made a bid!"
However, Wen Shuai is determined to get this magic sea worm - although Du Lao's chance of impacting the innate perfection is slim, but no matter how slim it is, he still has to try!
"I'm quite impatient. It's interesting!" Wen Man said with a smile, "Eighty thousand taels - you can add it, and I will add it if you add it!"
Wenman has a face that won't let you get it easily.
"One hundred thousand taels!" Although Wen Shuai was angry, he had to increase the price.
"One Phantom Sea Demonic Insect costs one hundred thousand taels? Third Emperor Brother, are you angry with me, or is it too much money to burn your hands? Or do you really need this thing urgently?" The value of the Phantom Sea Demonic Insect itself
In fact, it's not high. It's just because rare goods can be lived in, so it's expensive; but even so, in a general treasure competition, a magic sea insect will only cost 70,000 to 80,000 taels at most. No matter how expensive it is, it's just not worth it.
As an imperial brother, I can’t be compared to you, 110,000 taels!”
The eldest prince said calmly.
Others here actually wanted the Phantom Sea Demonic Insect; but when they saw that it was a dispute between the royal family, they did not dare to get involved. Moreover, the price of this Phantom Sea Demonic Insect was already high.
Ridiculous.
"One hundred and ten thousand taels..." Wen Shuai frowned.
It's not that he can't afford the hundreds of thousands taels of gold, but it's really not worth spending so much money just to buy a Phantom Sea Demonic Insect!
However, Du Lao was in urgent need of alchemy, so Wen Shuai had to buy it.
"One hundred and twenty thousand taels!" Wen Shuai shouted bravely.
"This time, it seems that there is really some blood!" Wen Shuai knew that without bleeding, it seems that the Phantom Sea Demonic Insect will not be obtained.
"Twenty-two thousand taels?" At this moment, even the eldest prince Wenman was a little surprised, "He actually raised the price to 120,000 taels for a mere phantom sea devil insect? Damn it, does this kid want to
Trick me and then leave?"
Although the eldest prince has a big family and a big fortune, his money does not fall from the sky. Moreover, a big family and a big fortune means that he has to feed many mouths every day. The eldest prince looks like he has a lot of money, but in fact every money
He had to make careful calculations before spending money, otherwise he would accidentally end up living beyond his means.
Therefore, when one Phantom Sea Demonic Insect reached 120,000, the eldest prince really began to hesitate and retreat.
There was a slight silence at the treasure competition.
Li Wenshi did not rush the two of them. As smart as he was, he would not easily get involved in the royal family's struggle; and the price of this magical sea insect was far beyond his expectations, so he was satisfied.
"Next, let's see who of these two princes loses his breath first!" Li Wenshi thought to himself.
"The eldest prince!" In Wenman's private room, a personal guard suddenly whispered, "My eyes have discovered that the third prince seems to be collecting the medicinal materials of the Huntian Pill recently!"
"Huntian Pill?" Wenman narrowed his eyes, "Could it be that old ghost Du Yude who wants to attack the innate perfection? - Although the probability of Du Yude entering the innate perfection is very small, once he succeeds in breaking through, maybe I can't
All these years of hard work will be in vain!"
Wenman is well aware of the intimidating power of an innate perfectionist in Feiyun Kingdom.
"And it is speculated that he has almost collected all the other medicinal materials, and the only thing missing is this phantom sea demon insect!" the guard added.
"What!?" Wenman said in shock, "You didn't tell me earlier! No wonder... no wonder the third child wants to fight with me! No, he will never let him get this magic sea insect easily; even if he gives in in the end, he will definitely
Make him vomit blood!"
The Phantom Sea Demonic Insect may not appear once a year. Of course Wenman must seize the opportunity to suppress Wen Shuai!
If Wen Shuai can be prevented from fighting against the Phantom Sea Demonic Insect, then the time for Du Lao to refine the Huntian Pill will probably be pushed back a year, which will be very beneficial to Wen Man! Of course, if the price is too high,
When Wenman thinks it's not worth fighting for, he will give in.
"One hundred and fifty thousand taels!" Wenman suddenly raised the price by 30,000 taels, clearly intending to trick Wen Shuai.
"One hundred and sixty thousand taels!" Wen Shuai had no choice but to follow.
"The fight between the Illusory Sea Demonic Insects must be too fierce!" Xu Ming was dumbfounded.
Then, he silently opened the "Medicinal Materials" category, and then clicked in to open several subcategories in succession. Finally, in a "Zizizizizizizizi category" called "Desert Rare Objects", he sorted by name, starting from tens of thousands.
Among the strange desert objects, I found the Phantom Sea Demonic Insect.
"One piece per thousand?"
One thousand hanging points is equivalent to ten thousand taels of gold. Although it is not cheap, compared with this magical sea insect in the treasure competition, it is simply not worth the price!
"Two hundred thousand taels!"
"Two hundred and twenty thousand taels!"
In the few minutes that Xu Ming was looking for something, Wen Shuai had already shouted out a high price of 220,000 taels. And Wen Shuai's face was sweating slightly, and he looked like his body had been hollowed out - he
Being led by the eldest prince, he played all the way from 50,000 taels to 220,000 taels.
"Twenty-five thousand taels!" The eldest prince also made his heart beat. With such a high price, Wen Shuai might give up at any time; in that case, in order to prevent Wen Shuai from buying the Phantom Sea Demonic Insect, he would have to pay twenty
The price is more than ten thousand taels of gold!
But he thinks it’s worth it!
"Two hundred and fifty thousand taels... do you want to continue to follow?" Wen Shuai did hesitate, "The price is too high, but if you don't follow, you don't know when you will encounter the Phantom Sea Demonic Insect again!"
Wen Shuai gritted his teeth - and followed!
"Hey, Wen Shuai!" Xu Ming suddenly shouted.
"Xu Ming, don't try to persuade me, this magical sea insect is too important, I am determined to win it!" Wen Shuai looked like he was determined to fight to the end.
"You want this, right? I have it here!" Xu Ming held a Cordyceps sinensis in his hand - oh, no, it's the Phantom Sea Demonic Insect.
"Huh!?" Wen Shuai was startled, his eyes bulging out, "Why do you have it?"
Xu Ming thought for a while and took out another one: "Is this thing very rare? I put it at the bottom of the box and forgot about it. Now I see it, I remember it."
Wen Shuai cast a cryptic look, as if to say, you kid, you said you don’t have a master? This thing must have been given to you by your master!
Wen Shuai became more and more certain that there was a mysterious master behind Xu Ming. Otherwise, how could Xu Ming casually bring out such rare treasures as the Phantom Sea Demonic Insect?
"If I had known you had it, I wouldn't have fought with him!" Wen Shuai scolded with a smile, "But this is fine... Two hundred and fifty thousand taels, enough for him to bleed!"
"Forget it, it's only two hundred and fifty thousand taels?" Xu Ming raised the corners of his mouth and smiled evilly, and a third magic sea insect appeared in his hand, "Why don't we play with him again..."
Wen Shuai understood this and summoned his bodyguards who were hiding in the dark.
Only the simple and ignorant Sun Ji was confused: "Playing? What are you playing with? What's so fun about being with a man?"
