Li Chen didn't buy any magic weapon. The two of them wandered around the Tianji Palace shop for a while, then left the place and returned to their own courtyards.
During this trip, I earned a total of 80,000 high-grade spiritual stones, bought two magic weapons, and still had over 60,000 yuan left.
This speed of earning spiritual stones is faster than that of treasure-catching monks.
However, this was just good luck. I encountered star-patterned sea cucumbers and coral trees, but I don't usually get such good harvests.
Going out to sea is quite risky.
Most monks only go out once in a long time.
Once you gain something, convert all the income into training resources to improve your strength as soon as possible.
Only when resources are running out will they go to sea again.
The main purpose of a monk is to practice cultivation, which is normal.
The same is true for Li Chen. This time he also harvested 30,000 high-grade spiritual stones, which was enough for him to practice for a long time.
In addition, the seven golden elixir monks who played a supporting role were all seriously injured and needed to recuperate for a period of time.
He has no plans to go to sea again for the time being, and Wang Daoyuan is happy to be at ease.
Practice step by step in your own courtyard and improve your level of alchemy and weapon refining.
When you have free time, go to the restaurant and sit there to see if there is any news about the Five Elements Essence.
After a year of this, Wang Daoyuan actually found out some information.
There are many large shops on Qizhen Island.
Larger chambers of commerce will have a small auction house.
As a result, the auctions will be diverse.
Some occur once a hundred years, once every few decades, once every few years, or even once a year.
Wang Daoyuan has participated in the annual auction several times.
Unfortunately, the level of this auction is indeed too low.
There are no precious items, most of them are very ordinary fourth- and fifth-level magic weapons and weapon refining materials.
Wang Daoyuan does need some weapon-refining materials for practicing, but through the channels introduced by Wu Yan, there are often casual cultivators selling fourth- and fifth-level weapon-refining materials.
The prices for buying ordinary weapon refining materials in the auction house are too high.
However, there is news about the Five Elements Essence in an upcoming auction.
The Essence of the Five Elements is not very precious here, but no big or small force would sell such a thing.
A small piece of Five Elements Essence can make it possible for the spiritual veins of the corresponding attributes to be upgraded.
It is of extremely high value to any force.
Moreover, this thing is often used to refine natal magic weapons.
Therefore, the only people selling this thing are casual cultivators.
When they travel around, if they accidentally obtain the essence of the Five Elements, they have no fixed place to live, and it is useless to come here.
You will find some auctions to sell them and earn more resources.
This auction house is called Chi Yan Auction House, and its owner is Chi Yan Sect.
This sect is also a member of the Seven Star Alliance. Although there are no god-transformation monks in charge, there are three Nascent Soul peak monks who are not weak in strength.
The Red Flame Auction House is not very large, but good things often appear.
He also found the auction records of the Five Elements Essence. The fourth-level Five Elements Essence was not valuable, and the general transaction price was only a few hundred yuan of high-grade spiritual stones.
The price of fifth-level essence of five elements is particularly high.
A fifth-level low-grade product costs several thousand, while a fifth-level mid-grade product costs tens of thousands.
Moreover, the bidding pressure is not small.
Weapon refiners and monks from small forces will all participate in the competition.
It is not impossible for the price to be raised too high.
Wang Daoyuan doesn't ask for a high-grade person, as long as he can have it.
Even a fourth-level Five Elements Essence can grow to a fifth-level mid-level if placed in the spiritual veins of the spirit bead space for thousands of years.
On the day of the auction, Wang Daoyuan went straight to Chiyan Auction House.
He didn't put on a disguise or anything like that. He was too good at disguise, but he might be reminded of the swordsman named Zhou.
If the disguise is not good and someone sees through it, it will appear that there is something wrong with you.
Let's just go through it openly. The essence of the Five Elements is not a very important thing, so no one would hunt down and kill a Nascent Soul cultivator for this thing.
This Red Flame Auction House is extremely impressive. The entire auction house is built with fourth-level weapon refining materials.
At the door were two guards at the peak of Jindan. Wang Daoyuan showed the aura of a Nascent Soul monk.
The two people quickly held their hands and said, "Senior, please come in."
When Wang Daoyuan walked into the door, a young and beautiful female foundation-building cultivator came over.
He bowed and said, "Senior, please follow me."
This female nun is also pitiful and her clothes are very simple.
With this bow, everything that should be exposed or shouldn't be exposed is almost exposed.
Wang Daoyuan is an upright gentleman, and of course he will not look around.
I just glanced at it twice and followed the female cultivator up to the second floor.
There are dozens of boxes here, with a patio in the middle and the auction table directly below the patio.
There are some scattered seats around the auction table on the first floor.
These casual seats are reserved for casual cultivators of Jindan. After all, the main way to earn spiritual stones in business is through cheating casual cultivators.
This box is quite spacious, with a bench and a table.
There are teapots, teacups, and two plates of spiritual fruits on the table.
The female cultivator did not leave, but made tea aside.
This tea art skill is quite good. After making tea, Wang Daoyuan said: "You can go out."
The female cultivator looked a little disappointed and retreated.
To put it bluntly, these female cultivators are gifts to the Yuanying monks. Once they are chosen, they may become the concubines of the Yuanying monks.
Wang Daoyuan now disguises himself as an ordinary-looking young man. The young Nascent Soul monk is naturally more popular.
Being favored by such a Nascent Soul cultivator is better for these female cultivators than staying here.
A quarter of an hour later, more than a dozen Yuanying monks came intermittently from the second floor.
There is also an acquaintance among them, Mr. Huang.
Wang Daoyuan was a little surprised that the Huang family could be considered a local snake.
Just say hello if you want anything. As for bidding in person?
There were more than a hundred casual cultivators on the first floor. A middle-stage Nascent Soul cultivator with white hair and beard walked to the auction table.
After a few opening remarks, the auction was announced to officially begin.
Then, a female cultivator who was also half-dressed came up carrying a tray.
There were two elixir bottles on the tray. The female cultivator placed the tray on the auction table and bowed away, leaving a lot of people exposed.
There were several young and vigorous Jindan cultivators who stared at the direction the female cultivator left for a long time.
The auctioneer smiled and said: "These are two bottles of Infant Training Pills, with a total of twenty pills. The starting price is four hundred yuan for high-grade spiritual stones."
Although this Baby Training Pill is useful, there is no need to buy it here.
Wang Daoyuan did not take action, and finally the Baby Training Pill was sold for 600 yuan of high-grade spiritual stones.
Then there were some fifth-level elixirs for healing, as well as various weapon-refining materials.
None of the Yuanying monks on the second floor bid.
After more than a dozen warm-up auction items were presented, the main course began.
A female cultivator from the Zifu realm walked up, holding a jade box in her hand.
The auctioneer took the jade box and opened it. Inside was a black crystal the size of an adult's forearm.
"This is a piece of fifth-grade middle-grade Guishui Essence. I believe everyone knows the value of this thing.
This thing is often used when refining water attribute natal magic weapons.
When the broken pill is used to form a baby, it is also an excellent spiritual item to form a baby.
If some families or sects have low-level water spiritual veins, as long as a small piece of Guishui essence is integrated into it, it is possible for this spiritual vein to grow to the fifth level.
Moreover, the more essence of Guishui is incorporated, the faster the growth rate will be.
The starting price is seven thousand high-grade spiritual stones, and each increase in price shall not be less than one hundred high-grade spiritual stones."
The Jindan cultivator on the first floor showed little interest, but the Nascent Soul cultivator on the second floor was quite interested.
As soon as the auctioneer finished speaking, someone in the box shouted: "Eight thousand!"
Before the word "thousand" was spoken, someone quoted: "Nine thousand!"
This is exactly Wang Daoyuan's goal, and he will naturally not give up: "Ten thousand."
At this time, a slightly familiar voice came: "Twelve thousand!"
This voice belongs to Mr. Huang. Judging from the bid, it seems that he is bound to win.
