Chapter 291 Auctioning Yourself
When Yuan Ming, who was sitting in the audience, heard the final price of the auction item, a faint smile appeared on his face, and his hand moved slightly away from the bidding token he had just used.
This bidding token is a specially refined magic weapon. As long as a little magic power is injected, even if the bid is triggered, there will be no surface performance, so as to protect the privacy of the bidder.
Three thousand spirit stones cannot be said to be high for a thousand-year-old spirit wood, but it is not a small amount. It is almost the entire family of an ordinary foundation-building cultivator, and can be exchanged for at least two top-grade magic weapons.
For most people, the water crown tree spirit wood seems to be quite useless, and most cultivators will not bid after a little consideration.
But for Yuan Ming, he doesn't mind whether the spiritual energy contained in the water crown tree spirit wood conflicts. As long as the age is enough, he can use it to make incense, which can greatly increase the duration of the spirit incense.
Yuan Ming estimated that if this spiritual wood was any other wood-attributed spiritual material, it would be one of the best choices for Jindan-stage cultivators to refine magic baby embryos. If it was put on the auction, he would probably have to spend more than ten thousand spiritual stones to get it, and it might even be out of stock in the outside world.
At this price, it was the profit of his spiritual incense shop for a month or so. For him, it was a good deal if he could buy it.
Yuan Ming finally got something. While excited, he also had new expectations for the next auction items.
As the auction gradually drew to a close, Kui Jiu finally took out the first auction item that could be called the finale of this auction.
"When it comes to formations, I wonder if you first think of the Chenkun Sect of Chu or the Red Lotus Island of southern Xinjiang? There have been many different opinions on which of these two is the best in formations, and there has never been a final conclusion. However, if we only talk about which formation is the most outstanding for dealing with foundation-building cultivators, there is probably no other answer except the Xunfeng Huanyao Formation of Master Xiao Zhang of Red Lotus Island."
"And today our store is fortunate to receive the auction commission from Master Xiao Zhang, and solemnly introduce to you the master's latest masterpiece - Molten Gold Breaking Water Formation."
"This formation is both offensive and defensive. After it is deployed, except for those who hold the formation token, as long as they take out the magic If you use a magic weapon, it will attract red fire to burn, and once you cast a spell, it will attract weak water to pour in. The fire melts the magic weapon, and the water absorbs spiritual power, so it is called "Melting Gold and Cutting Water". "
"After testing by our store, once you fall into this formation, even a Jindan cultivator will be tripped up and need to spend some twists and turns to get out, not to mention an ordinary foundation-building cultivator. The value of this thing is self-evident. At this point, this formation will start from three thousand spirit stones. "
Before Kui Jiu finished speaking, an anxious cultivator immediately began to offer prices. The price of the formation rose all the way, and soon passed the five thousand mark and went straight to eight thousand.
After listening to the introduction, Yuan Ming was somewhat tempted, but he changed his mind and thought that he already had two sets of formations in his hands. Although he was rich, he had not yet found a top-grade magic weapon. Buying this set of formations might affect the subsequent purchase of top-grade magic weapons.
In the end, the Molten Gold and Cutting Water Array was successfully auctioned at a price of 11,000 spirit stones, and the atmosphere at the venue became more and more enthusiastic.
Kuijiu struck while the iron was hot and took out another masterpiece.
"The next lot is the top-grade magic weapon Liuyun ruler made by Master Xu Xinyang of Zhao State. It is engraved with four runes: rapid, invisible, indestructible and Thousand-pound. After being activated, it is extremely fast, coming and going without a trace, and has a powerful attack. It can not only easily destroy magic weapons below the upper grade, but also not lose to magic weapons of the same level."
"Master Xu Xinyang's level should be very clear to you. He has refined a total of eleven top-grade magic weapons so far, and each of them is of top quality. Among them, eight have even been upgraded to magic weapons. The starting price of this Liuyun ruler is six thousand."
Under the stage, Yuan Ming looked at the white jade ruler in Kuijiu's hand, his eyes showing a tangled look.
This magic weapon is very much in line with his mind, but when it is actually used, the effect is quite similar to the black needle, both of which are hidden and unexpected.
Therefore, if he bought this top-grade magic weapon, if his black needle continued to be refined, he would have two top-grade magic weapons after success.
However, just as he was thinking for a moment, Kui Jiu's offer increased all the way to 10,000 spirit stones, and it seemed that it would increase. In the box above the venue, a middle-aged man with a strong body and a big and strong appearance suddenly stood up, opened his mouth, and even without using magic power, his voice spread to every corner of the venue.
"Among the Taoist friends who like this treasure, if there is a spirit wood over a thousand years old and is willing to exchange, the current offer of 8,600 spirit stones will be converted, deducting the value of the thousand-year-old spirit wood, and the spirit stones will be refunded if there are more spirit stones and supplemented if there are less spirit stones. My magic weapon will belong to you."
Yuan Ming looked up and saw that the man had a tiger face, his eyes were wide open like bells, his mouth was as wide as a palm, and his black hair stood up, connecting with the beard on both sides of his cheeks, looking fierce.
Listening to his words, it seems that this person is the Xu Xinyang mentioned by Kui Jiu.
At this time, Xu Xinyang's ears suddenly moved, as if someone was transmitting a message to him. After a while, a satisfied smile appeared on his face.
"Yes, Daoyou's bid is very fair. Um, Kui Jiu, don't bid for this one, hurry up and take down another item."
On the high platform, Kui Jiu looked at a loss, and was stunned on the spot. It seemed that such an abrupt interruption of her auction process was not in her plan, which caused an uproar among the cultivators present.
Puppet Jiu also stopped there and did not move. It was not until seven or eight breaths passed that he returned to normal as if he had received instructions from the owner of the venue, and said: "Senior Xu has given us such an order, so we should obey it. We should follow it carefully." Move on to the next lot.”
As Puppet Jiu spoke, she suddenly left the hosting platform and stood in the center of the high platform. Beside her, eight more figures slowly rose up.
Just when everyone present was a little confused as to what the last auction item was, Puppet Jiu continued to speak:
"This second-to-last lot, as you can see, is a spiritual stone puppet. My brothers and sisters and I are all produced by Baijimen. There are nine of them in total. They are made of high-quality materials and their strength is equivalent to the early stage of Qi refining. "
"The important thing is that each of us has simple intelligence. As long as the supply of spiritual stones is sufficient, we can do various tasks under the control of the master."
"The nine spirit stone puppets have a starting price of 4,500 spirit stones. With us, we can assist the master in related work, and have a certain ability to protect themselves. We can also ensure that the master's secrets are not leaked." Puppet Jiu said, Suddenly he smiled playfully, winked at everyone in the venue, and said: "A slave in the Qi Refining Stage in Southern Xinjiang costs three thousand spirit stones. We are indeed worth every penny."
As soon as Puppet Jiu's words of "auctioning oneself" surprised everyone, the atmosphere in the venue also became weird. Although everyone present knew that these were puppets from Baijimen, they There was still an illusion that the monk slaves were being auctioned.
Seeing this, Yuan Ming was immediately moved. These puppets had such preliminary intelligence. If he could buy them back and teach them how to make incense, he would no longer have to worry about the incense in the store.
However, he quickly gave up this idea, mainly because the safety of the cabin he rented was not guaranteed. If someone took away the puppet, the secret of his incense making would be known to others, and it would be more than worth the loss.
If necessary in the future, you can go directly to Baijimen to buy it. The current spiritual stones should still be used for top-quality magic weapons.
In the end, the nine spirit stone puppets were sold for around 5,000 to 6,000 spirit stones.
After the auction was completed, the other eight spirit stone puppets descended again, leaving Puppet Nine standing on the high platform, continuing her final mission as the auction host.
"Next, the last item is here. It is a magic weapon that we spent a lot of money to collect at the auction - the Purple Star Nine Dragon Spear. This treasure is the natal magic weapon of the alchemy monk Long Xinghe. With this gun, he once Donghai achieved great fame, but it was a pity that Tian was jealous of Yingcai. He suddenly died in a conflict, leaving only this magic weapon. "
"There are rumors that Long Xinghe told his disciples before his death that he discovered an ancient secret treasure based on this magic weapon, and this magic weapon is the clue to a secret treasure in the East China Sea. However, after so many years, The Purple Star Nine Dragon Spear has changed owners several times, and the whereabouts of his major skill "Star Reaching Technique" are still unknown. After all, there is no news about the secrets he talked about. "
"After identification by our store, this gun is indeed a remnant of Long Xinghe. The talisman array on it is intact, and the magic weapon itself is not damaged at all. It can be used again with just a little sacrifice. The starting price is 20,000."
The magic weapon of a famous alchemy monk actually appeared in this auction. Many monks in the venue suddenly became excited, and they were even more excited when they saw the purple spear behind Puppet Jiu.
However, the starting price of 20,000 yuan is really not something that most monks can come up with. The only ones who can really bid are the VIPs sitting in the box.
At this stage, those pill-forming monks or representatives of the sects were too lazy to bid with tokens, and shouted out the price one by one, without letting anyone give in.
For a time, the Five Thunder Sect and the Shengye Sect all made bids.
"We have 31,000 spirit stones in Changchun. Do you want to increase the price?" After a fierce bidding, Zuo Qinghui suddenly stood up, stroked his beard, and looked around with cold eyes.
Wang Chongshan on the side whispered to Yuan Ming: "I knew it would be like this. Changchun Temple always suppresses others with force."
After Zuo Qinghui stood up, Puppet Jiu waited for a moment, but no one else increased the price. Seeing this, Puppet Jiu immediately raised his hand to him: "Congratulations to Senior Zuo for taking this treasure. So, so far, all the lots in this auction All have been sold. Please leave in an orderly manner. Fellow Taoists who have taken photos of the lots please wait in the lobby downstairs for a while. Someone will take you to hand over the lots later. "
The auction ended and the crowd gradually dispersed.
Beside the small lake, in front of a huge window, Zuo Qinghui looked at the lake and ordered a disciple: "Go and find out where this Hagong came from and where he studied under? What magical weapon does he use? Special It’s the details of the fight with Pu Zhengqing.”
"Yes." One person replied.
