In fact, Chen Dong still doesn't know the use of the fragment of the picture he found at the Jincheng market. He just thought it didn't look like a fake and the price was not expensive, so he bought it casually.
After buying it, I didn't take it seriously and threw it in the corner of the storage ring.
Today I saw another piece of the residual picture, and I was naturally very curious, so I picked it up and looked at it carefully. The simple texture and obscure lines were definitely from one piece.
"Haha, sir, you have a sharp eye. You can see the extraordinary features of this fragment of a map at a glance! To be honest, this was left by a great master in ancient times. It is said that all his wealth is buried in the map.
As long as you buy from the marked position, you will definitely not lose money!" Seeing Chen Dong's interest in the residual pictures, the stall owner immediately started chatting, frothing at the mouth.
Is it retained by a great master again?
It seems that stall owners all over the world have the same way of speaking.
Chen Dong asked: "How much is it?"
The stall owner immediately said: "One price, one thousand gold coins! Sir, you will make money if you buy it, but don't miss it..."
Chen Dong sneered, dropped the broken picture and left.
In fact, a thousand gold coins were like a drop in the bucket to Chen Dong, just ten spirit stones, so he took them out as soon as he sprinkled water on them, but he didn't like the feeling of being taken advantage of.
The stall owner immediately became anxious and shouted at Chen Dong: "Don't go, don't go, you can bargain, five hundred gold coins! Three hundred gold coins! One hundred gold coins! One hundred gold coins, let's go to the head office, and then
Anything less and I’ll lose money!”
Chen Dong then came back and said to the stall owner: "I don't know if this thing of yours is real or fake, and it's just a broken picture. What's the use of buying it? I'll give you the number, ten gold coins.
Do you want to sell it?"
The stall owner took a breath: "Ten gold coins, why don't you go and grab them..."
Chen Dong turned around and left again.
"Okay, okay, just ten gold coins..."
Chen Dong took out ten gold coins and threw them on the stall, then took the remaining pictures away.
It's still early before dark.
Chen Dong wandered around the market for a while, sold some things, and then found an inn to stay temporarily. After entering the room, he took out the two fragments of the picture and put them together for comparison.
The two fragmentary pictures are both palm-sized. Although they are from one complete picture, they cannot be put together.
It seems that there are other pictures, at least three yuan away.
Chen Dong didn't know if he could find the other three fragments of pictures in the future. The chances were too low, so he lost interest and put them away again.
Then, Chen Dong sorted out the items in the storage ring.
Now he has about 50 million spiritual stones, some miscellaneous items, and a Purple Flame Fruit.
Chen Dong took out the Purple Flame Fruit, and the surrounding temperature increased a lot. This thing was like a small volcano.
Chen Dong knew that the Purple Flame Fruit was very precious. Only the Purple Fire Sect had it in the entire Yanxia Continent, and the Purple Fire Sect only produced ten fruits a year, which was not enough for their own people.
But in the final analysis, this thing only enhances fire attribute martial arts, and I have no use for it at all.
His "Wind and Thunder Sword" can summon the energy of wind and thunder. Although there are some moves that can produce fire, it is the effect of thunder and has little to do with fire.
After thinking about it, Chen Dong decided to eat it. Although it was useless for the time being, he could still keep it.
Elder Ge said before how to use it, just eat it directly.
Chen Dong didn't say anything and ate it up after three times.
As soon as the Purple Flame Fruit entered his stomach, a hot energy started to swim in his body. Chen Dong didn't rush, and immediately ran the Qishu of Heaven and Earth, using the inner breath to wrap the energy, and then pushed it into the Dantian bit by bit.
among.
This process sounds simple to say, but it is quite difficult to actually implement it. Even if Chen Dong is as steady as Chen Dong, it took him a full two hours to refine all the energy.
Chen Dongjing concentrated his energy and sank into his dantian, and he could clearly see that there was a purple cyclone in his dantian.
That is the purple fire formed by the Purple Flame Fruit.
Chen Dong tried to mobilize this purple cyclone, and some purple flames quickly emerged from his fingertips, but the energy was very weak and not enough to attack people. It was okay to cook instant noodles.
But there are no instant noodles in this world.
There is no way, without fire attribute martial arts, these purple fire seeds will not be able to play any role.
It’s just a good-looking picture.
Chen Dong took back the purple fire and looked out the window. Night had fallen, so he walked towards the door casually.
Still wearing a cloak.
In this world, there are many people dressed like this, so there is no need to worry about attracting anyone's attention.
When Chen Dong stayed before, he deliberately found a hotel close to Jiangnan Pavilion Auction House, so now he only walked two streets to reach his destination.
The Jiangnan Pavilion auction house, which was still closed at noon, is finally open. The entrance is bustling with people.
This kind of large auction house is inaccessible to ordinary people.
Therefore, even if there are many people, the guards still perform their duties and carefully check everyone's identity.
When Chen Dong arrived, Chen Dong reported his previously registered name: "Lu Yuange."
After the guard compared it, he put Chen Dong in.
Entering the auction house, Chen Dong found that it was quite large and could accommodate at least a thousand people. At this time, the attendance rate reached 67/10.
You know, just to come here, you have to pay a deposit of 100,000 spirit stones!
It seems that no matter where you are, there are many rich people.
This is Binglong City, the county seat of Sanjin County. Naturally, there are more people in Sanjin County, but occasionally you can hear accents from other places. After all, Jiangnan Pavilion Auction House is open for business, and it will not refuse other places.
people.
Chen Dong was unfamiliar with the place, so naturally he didn't know anyone. He found a corner and sat down, thinking about when he could see the shopkeeper.
There was a lot of darkness all around, with people constantly standing up, sitting down, walking around, and greeting each other.
"Master Chu, why are you here again?"
"Haha, my son is about to become a saint. He is currently preparing to refine Tongsheng Pills. Come over and see if there are any suitable materials."
"You are also funny. Can't the auction house in Jincheng satisfy you?"
"Hey, I'm well-informed. Wherever there are good things, I'll dig in!"
Not long after Chen Dong sat down, he heard a familiar voice coming from next to him.
Turning around, he saw that he recognized Chu Yingxiong’s father, Chu Wanhao, the head of the “Chu Family”, the largest family in Jincheng!
I never expected that Chu Wanhao would also come to this place, and he really fulfilled the old saying: Enemies never get together.
The person who was talking to Chu Wanhao was a middle-aged man who seemed to be of high status. The auction hadn't started yet, and the two kept chatting, which also let Chen Dong know the purpose of Chu Wanhao's visit.
Now that Chen Dong is the strongest disciple of the inner sect of Qingyun Temple, Chu Yingxiong has no hope of competing in the "Yanwu Cup", so he naturally plans to become a saint.
In fact, Chu Yingxiong has been preparing for Tongsheng Pills for a long time. Chu Wanhao has been traveling all over the country in recent years, trying hard to collect various medicinal materials for his son to refine Tongsheng Pills.
Chen Dong recalled today's auction list and found that there were indeed several herbs used to refine Tongsheng Pills.
However, Chen Dong has both, so he is not interested. He only lacks the Sirius Shen Zhi now.
Seeing that Chu Wanhao was also here, Chen Dong couldn't help but think that maybe this guy had Tianlang Shenzhi on him, and he could be robbed after the auction was over.
When he came up with this idea, Chen Dong didn't feel ashamed at all, because when he was in Jincheng before, the Chu family and his son tried to kill him several times, and the two sides also had a deep hatred. Even if they retaliate, it is just to stop it.
It's just interest.
Just as Chen Dong was thinking this, he heard the middle-aged man say again: "Master Chu, how many herbs do you still need?"
Chu Wanhao said: "Didn't I take pictures of Sirius Divine Mushroom here before? Now there are only four or five kinds left... Other medicinal materials are actually quite easy to find. As long as you are willing to spend time, you can definitely find them, but Huang Xiancao is the only one."
It's hard to find. That thing is so weird. It only grows around people with the 'Emperor's Bloodline'. There's no place to look for it. You can't go to the Holy Palace... You're so snobbish about a useless medicinal material. What the hell is that?
ah……"
The middle-aged man laughed loudly: "Take your time, anyway, even if you collect all the medicines, you may not be able to hire a super-god-level alchemist!"
Speaking of this, Chu Wanhao also sighed: "Yes, with Qingyun Temple's status in the country, it would not be a problem to hire a super-god-level alchemist for my son. It's a pity that because of a man named Chen Dong, the Alchemist Guild was given to others.
I'm offended, President Gong is not willing to cooperate with Qingyunguan now... This Chen Dong should really be cut into pieces!"
The middle-aged man nodded in agreement: "I've heard about this too, and Chen Dong not only offended the Alchemist Guild, but also Feibao Tower, Zhenlei Hall, Purple Fire Sect, and Feiying Villa all had enmities with him. Isn't this right?
A typical rat excrement ruins a pot of porridge. I wonder why Qingyun Temple is still protecting him..."
"That's right, if I were Yun Zhongzi, I would have kicked him out long ago..."
The two of them kept talking bad things about Chen Dong, completely unaware that Chen Dong was right next to them.
Chen Dong silently muttered in his heart: "Let you have fun for a while, and then we can settle the accounts after the auction is over."
The two are still communicating.
"By the way, Master Chu, I heard that someone from Xuanyue Mansion is coming today."
"Oh? What are you doing at Xuanyue Mansion?"
"Lu Fengyu, the strongest disciple of Xuanyue Mansion, also plans to become a saint after the end of the 'Yanwu Cup', so he has the same purpose as you, and he also comes here for the raw materials of the Tongsheng Pill..."
"...Whatever, the one with the highest price in the auction will get it anyway. If he has the ability, he can bid higher than me. I won't do it in the auction, right?"
Although Chu Wanhao said this, his voice already seemed a little weak.
Xuanyue Mansion is, after all, one of the eight ancient sects. To be the strongest disciple of Xuanyue Mansion, one’s abilities are naturally not limited. No wonder Chu Wanhao is nervous.
But to Chen Dong, it didn't matter. There was nothing he was interested in tonight, so he wouldn't have any conflict with anyone.
He just waited patiently for the auction to end and "rob" Chu Wanhao.
As more and more people gathered around, the host of the auction finally slowly came on stage.
