In fact, Xi Zhong's price for the spirit formation beads was 20,000 jade spirit stones.
All the guests in the auction house, except Xi Zhong, no one knew whether the spiritual formation contained in the spiritual formation bead was a high-level spiritual formation or a low-level spiritual formation.
If everyone present knew about the Thousand Flames Bathing Fire Formation contained in this spiritual formation bead, I am afraid they would definitely start fighting over it.
In fact, the first person who made a bid to buy it just wanted to try his luck. After buying it, he took it back to his sect and asked several spiritual formation masters of his sect to break down the spiritual formation bead.
If it can be successfully broken down, the method of arranging the spiritual array inside will be revealed.
By then, if the spiritual formation inside is an extremely high-level spiritual formation, then they will simply make a huge profit.
A high-level spiritual formation arranged by a very high-level spiritual formation master. If the method of arranging the spiritual formation were sold outside, it would probably be worth at least several million jade spirit stones.
And it’s still very affordable.
Because there are simply no highly accomplished spiritual formation masters willing to trade the advanced spiritual formation layout methods they have developed.
The reason why Xi Zhong was willing to spend 20,000 jade spirit stones to buy this spiritual formation bead was simply because he wanted the Thousand Flames Bathing Fire Formation inside to use it to kill enemies.
To put it bluntly, it is used to save lives.
Before his cultivation reached a high enough level, almost all of Xi Zhong's actions were aimed at saving his life.
Only when you are alive can you say anything else. If you die, then everything is over.
After the old auctioneer finished speaking, the handsome young man in dark robes had a gloomy expression on his face, and he stood up and continued to follow the price.
But as a result, the old man with closed eyes who had been sitting behind him finally opened his eyes at this moment. His turbid old eyes looked at the playboy indifferently, then stretched out his hand and held down the playboy's shoulders to prevent him from standing.
stand up.
"Young Master, there is no need to spend money on such rubbish spiritual formation beads. Don't forget, the ultimate purpose of our coming here specifically to participate in the Qingjian Sect auction." The old man said to the playboy in his heart: "What if?
If it fails, it will be difficult for me to explain to you."
When the handsome young man heard this, his face turned green and white. Now he was very confused.
If he stops and continues to raise prices, he will be embarrassed in front of many people. After all, he was the one who brought up the trouble in the first place, and he was the one who provoked the incident. But now it is he who was the first to be silent. This undoubtedly makes many people feel
He is a poor boy who cannot even afford more than 10,000 jade stones.
But if he continues to raise the price, he is a little unsure. After all, they came to participate in the auction this time for a certain thing. That thing is extremely important to their sect. Although this
Twenty thousand jade spirit stones are not many, but it is difficult to say that the difference of ten thousand or twenty thousand jade spirit stones will be embarrassing when bidding later.
Therefore, he did not dare to ignore the old man's reminder. After all, this old man was not only his bodyguard, but also his elder in the sect.
So in the end, the dandy in dark robes could only look at Xi Zhong and others with hatred, and finally sat down reluctantly.
But now everyone knew the result instantly.
This dandy seems to be a strong-willed guy. He can't even produce a mere 10,000 or 20,000 jade spirit stones, so why did you provoke him in the first place?
Isn't this a slap in the face?
Everyone began to whisper to each other.
They were all whispers with a smile.
And the dandy in the dark robe listened to these snickering words. Although he didn't know whether they were directed at him, he felt very uncomfortable listening to these words.
It was as if all the snickers and words were directed at him.
That's sometimes the case.
Xi Zhong looked at the gloomy expression of the playboy and smiled slightly.
He knew this situation very well. This is the human heart.
In his previous life, Xi Zhong accidentally fell down on the street and then got up. Although he knew that no one around him was laughing at him, the laughter and words he heard after the fall were particularly harsh and he always felt that
It's like people are laughing at him.
This kind of psychology is difficult to explain clearly.
When the old auctioneer on the auction stage saw that the handsome young man who had raised the price aggressively at the beginning, he immediately became silent, and a hint of disappointment flashed across his eyes.
I originally thought that this dandy boy could help him raise the price even more, but I didn't expect that he failed at the beginning. This is simply embarrassing.
However, such offending thoughts must never be expressed, so the old man looked around and asked with a smile: "Do you still have any intention of raising the price?"
Everyone sat in their seats with calm expressions, and no one made a sound.
In the end, the old auctioneer had no choice but to make the final decision, "Then this spiritual formation bead will be auctioned off by the young man in blue!"
"It turns out that he is also a loser who only knows how to show off!" Wu Mei suddenly sneered in a low voice.
When Xi Zhong heard this, he was stunned, and then asked blankly: "Where did you learn the word 'pretend'?"
Su Nian also looked strange.
Wu Mei blushed and felt that her previous words might have been a bit vulgar. She whispered: "I learned it from Xiao Ping'er."
Only then did Xi Zhong suddenly realize.
But then I was shocked again.
Xiao Ping'er actually learned this word from herself!?
"Hiss... I've misled others, I've misled others." Xi Zhong only felt guilty.
As a high-quality person, Xiao Ping'er actually learned such vulgar words from me. It seems that I have to pay more attention in front of Xiao Ping'er in the future and not say any more vulgar words casually.
And judging from Wu Mei and Su Nian's appearance, they don't seem to know the superficial and deep meaning of this word.
It's better if you don't know. If you know, Xi Zhong will be embarrassed.
Then, a young maid came up to the auction stage and carefully hid the spiritual formation beads back in the jade box before retreating from the stage.
Xi Zhong asked: "Sister Wu, can you get that thing only after the auction is over?"
Wu Mei nodded lightly, "That's natural. When the time comes, I'll pay with one hand and deliver the goods with the other hand. The auction house is not stupid, how can it give you the things on the spot?"
Xi Zhong nodded lightly.
Su Nian looked at Xi Zhong as if he were a country bumpkin.
This person doesn't even know the basic rules of the auction?
The dandy in the distance looked at Xi Zhong and Su Nianwu Mei talking and laughing with gloomy eyes. He turned to the old man and said, "I'll trouble you, Mr. Zhao, to help me find out the details of those three people later."
The old man nodded slightly, "This is natural."
After that, the auction continued as usual. It was obvious that the auction that Xi Zhong came in by chance was a large-scale auction. There were many things auctioned, and they were all good treasures.
But there was nothing that could move Xi Zhong's heart.
Moreover, Xi Zhong noticed that with the influence of the four parties, he never auctioned many things and just sat calmly. Even if he occasionally took action, it was only a small fuss.
In addition to the Tianming Sword Sect as a sitter, there are the old man in rich clothes who bought the Black Flame Lion Sword, a middle-aged man with a hunched body and no one around him although he is only middle-aged, and the playboy.
and the old man behind him.
These three forces all seem to have a very strong purpose, as if they are waiting for something to appear, and from the looks of it, they are all aiming for the same thing.
Xi Zhong smiled slightly and said, "There may be something good to watch next."
The auction business at the auction is gradually coming to an end, but the atmosphere is getting more and more heated.
Everyone present knows that after the final item appears, it will definitely become more popular.
The old auctioneer had a smile on his face. He had made a lot of money today. Even if he only took a share of the profits, it would still be an extremely rich jade spirit stone.
He glanced at the three parties who had been calm and motionless, smiled slightly, and then waved slowly.
Finally, a young maid appeared, and what the maid held in her hand turned out to be just a black jade pendant.
As soon as the black jade pendant appeared, the three parties that had not made much movement in the auction suddenly began to breathe rapidly.
But after Wu Mei and Su Nian saw the black jade pendant, they both looked indifferent and were not moved at all.
This made Xi Zhong feel strange and asked: "What on earth is that thing?"
Wu Mei explained calmly: "In fact, when we set off towards the Black Flame Crystal Mountains the day after tomorrow, we will also have that thing."
Xi Zhong was stunned when he heard this, "What? Then what is this?"
"Don't you know?" Su Nian on the side did not want to be excluded and interrupted: "This is the entry certificate to the Black Flame Crystal Mountains. Only the seven major sects can have it, and the limited number of jade pendants for each sect is
The fourteen paths, distributed according to the number of people, are one chief disciple, plus three veteran disciples, and ten new disciples."
"Oh?" Xi Zhong became even more confused and asked: "Then why does this auction house belonging to the Qingjian Sect use this precious entry qualification to sell?"
A hint of sarcasm appeared on Wu Mei's pretty face, and she said: "Of course it's because the Qingjian Sect wants to earn more jade spirit stones. Don't forget that behind the Qingjian Sect is a Warring States period, auctioned here
The majority of the jade spirit stones obtained were obtained by the Warring States Period, and most of the wealth of the Warring States Period was maintained by the Green Sword Sect’s auctions. Otherwise, how could you think that the Warring States Period could have continued to conquer the surrounding small countries?
?”
When Xi Zhong heard this, he suddenly realized.
Then Su Nian on the side said again: "And the sect that obtained this black jade pendant at auction also has some other benefits, and those benefits are enough to make those sects crazy."
