Chapter 429 Dongtian Commercial Bank Auction (3rd Update)

In Jinxia Xiancheng, although the various materials are not inferior to those in Heishi City, the prices are relatively cheaper.

Of course, the cheapest ones are those of medium and low-level monster materials. For some rare minerals and metal materials, the prices are not cheap no matter where they are.

Xiao Lin learned from Gu Yue that there are two good places to purchase materials in Heishi City. One is naturally the market in the east of the city, where the immortal cultivators set up stalls. Many immortal cultivators who come back from the sea will choose to set up stalls in person to sell the materials in their hands at a good price.

For buyers, the materials here are not only much cheaper than those sold in major business houses, but if you are lucky, you can also find some good things.

The other is the large shops in the city center. These shops have existed for many years and have hundreds of branches throughout the entire East Territory. They have always had a good reputation. They purchase various materials, spiritual medicines, talismans, and magic tools from the immortal cultivators. Even if there are only people selling them, they will also purchase magic weapons and spiritual treasures.

Then add a certain price and sell it to the immortal cultivators. The good thing about the items sold in these shops is that they are of various types and relatively complete. If you can't find materials in the East City Market, you can go to these shops to have a look.

And there is another advantage of buying items from these shops, that is, you will basically not be cheated. Unlike the East City Market, although you may find good things, you may also be treated as a sucker and be ripped off.

Xiao Lin naturally knew all about these. After listening to Gu Yue, he took a sip of tea and showed a thoughtful expression on his face.

To say that at this moment, what he wants most is a safe place to practice. Qingxi Island is definitely not going back, and if he can rent a better practice cave in this Black Stone City, he can use it to improve his cultivation to the middle stage of the Golden Core.

Then he refined the five-element spiritual fire bead and used the five-element spiritual fire to refine his own life-defining magic weapon, the Sky Escape Mirror. In this way, he would have the Sky Escape Mirror, an attacking magic weapon, and the Qingyang Mirror, a defensive magic weapon, which would give him a lot of confidence.

"You can go now." After figuring out where he was going, Xiao Lin glanced at Gu Yue and gave him ten low-grade spiritual stones, saying lightly.

Gu Yue looked at the ten low-grade spiritual stones in his hand and showed a look of joy, but he did not leave directly. Instead, he looked at Xiao Lin and showed an expression of wanting to say something but stopping.

Seeing his expression, Xiao Lin could not help but frowned slightly: "Do you have anything else to do?"

Seeing Xiao Lin asking, Gu Yue said, "I wonder if the senior is interested in the auction on the black market?"

After hesitating for a while, Gu Yue spoke.

"Auction?" Hearing this, Xiao Lin showed a surprised expression on his face. He was not unfamiliar with auctions. In some larger immortal cities, some businesses would hold some large auctions privately.

The items at the auction are usually extremely rare, and of course the prices are also extremely high. In order to improve his cultivation and enter the Golden Core Stage, Xiao Lin spent a lot of spirit stones to buy the experience of forming the golden core. After coming to the Eastern Territory through the cross-domain teleportation array of Donghua Immortal City, he had very few spirit stones left.

Even if there is an auction, he may not have enough spirit stones to participate. After obtaining the method of refining the Qingluan Ice Thunder Sword from the Qingluan Immortal Scripture, Xiao Lin has decided to use it as his main magic weapon.

Moreover, he also obtained several rare materials from the Dutian Xiaohan Realm, but there is still a long way to go to refine the Qingluan Ice Thunder Sword. If he can participate in this auction, he may be able to gain something.

When Xiao Lin was worrying about the spirit stones, Gu Yue said, "Senior, this auction held by Dongtian Commercial Bank is still half a year away. If you want to participate, I am willing to tell you the address and requirements for participation."

Looking at Gu Yue, Xiao Lin knew that Gu Yue was thinking about this, which was nothing more than taking this opportunity to win credit from him and hoping that he would reward him with more spirit stones.

Xiao Lin casually threw another ten low-grade spirit stones to Gu Yue. After receiving the spirit stones, Gu Yue immediately said with surprise, "Senior, this is the address of the auction held by Dongtian Commercial Bank, but I have already inquired about it. As long as two conditions are met, you can participate in this auction."

"Oh? Tell me about it?"

"In fact, there are two auctions this time. One is for the seniors in the foundation-building stage, and the other is naturally for the Jindan Zhenren. If you choose the former, you need to meet the realm of the foundation-building stage at the same time, and you must also have an entry line of 100,000 low-grade spirit stones."

"What about the Jindan stage?" Xiao Lin asked lightly.

Hearing this, Gu Yue's forehead was covered with beads of sweat. As a low-level cultivator in the Qi Refining Stage, he naturally could not see Xiao Lin's realm.

After entering the city, Xiao Lin also concealed his aura through the secret technique of Yi Ling Bian, so Gu Yue had always guessed that the person in front of him should be a senior in the Foundation Establishment Stage.

But after Xiao Lin asked about the conditions for participating in the auction for the Jindan Stage, he already understood that the cultivator in front of him, who looked much younger than himself in his thirties, was most likely a Jindan True Person.

In the Eastern Territory, there are many cultivators. The disciples of the major sects not only have many Jindan elders, but also hire some scattered Jindan cultivators to serve as the outer sect elders of the sect.

However, in the Eastern Territory, although Jindan cultivators are not uncommon, that is relative. The area of ​​the Burning Immortal Sea in the Eastern Territory alone is unknown how many billions of miles in radius. As a result, for low-level cultivators, there are not many opportunities to encounter Jindan cultivators.

Moreover, even if you encounter a Jindan cultivator, in order to avoid unnecessary trouble, these Jindan cultivators usually hide their auras. Even if you stand in front of them, they cannot know.

And facing a Jindan cultivator, he dared to gain benefits through the information of the auction. If he encounters some people who are unwilling to care, it would be fine. If he encounters some petty people, his life may not be saved.

"For seniors in the Jindan stage, these two conditions must also be met, but the entry line for spirit stones has been raised to 500,000 low-grade spirit stones."

Hearing this number, Xiao Lin was speechless. It seemed that he might not be able to collect these 500,000 low-grade spirit stones. However, he also obtained a lot of rare materials through his trip to the Dutian Xiaohan Realm. Some of them he didn't need could be sold to collect some spirit stones.

Of course, the crimson spirit grass and mixed spirit grass in his spirit wood space for refining crimson jade pills will soon mature. At that time, he can also refine some spirit pills and sell them, and also accumulate some spirit stones.

"Senior, I didn't know that you were actually a Jindan real person. I can't accept this spirit stone." Xiao Lin, who was thinking, saw Gu Yue put ten low-grade spirit stones in front of him, and immediately showed a surprised expression.

But then Xiao Lin understood Gu Yue's worries. He had used the news of the auction to gain benefits from him before, so he was naturally a little unhappy. After all, as a Jindan cultivator, it was not difficult for him to know the news of the auction even if Gu Yue didn't tell him.

Moreover, Dongtian Commercial Bank, which held the auction, would naturally not let go of Jindan cultivators like Xiao Lin. I'm afraid that as long as he left here, someone would find him soon.

Gu Yue bowed respectfully to Xiao Lin and turned to leave. Xiao Lin did not stop him. He looked at the spiritual stones on the table and couldn't help but smile. He waved his sleeves gently, and nine spiritual stones on the table disappeared immediately, leaving only one.

Xiao Lin stood up, left the teahouse, and headed towards the center of Black Stone City.

He planned to rent a cave first and live there temporarily.

This Black Stone City was also set up with a powerful ban on flying, but for Jindan cultivators like Xiao Lin, if they wanted to force their way in, this ban would not stop them.

But Xiao Lin didn't intend to be so high-profile. Besides, this Black Stone City was the territory of the Imperial Water Palace. In his opinion, it was not a wise choice to offend such a huge monster as the Imperial Water Palace.

More than half an hour later, Xiao Lin came to the foot of Black Stone Mountain. What surprised Xiao Lin was that the foot of Black Stone Mountain was unusually quiet. The surrounding area was surrounded by stone pillars several feet high.

Moreover, Xiao Lin saw the pale golden light flashing on these stone pillars at a glance, and his heart couldn't help but shudder. Just through this pale golden light, Xiao Lin could feel the huge power contained in it.

At this time, Xiao Lin also understood that this seemingly inconspicuous stone forest was actually an unpredictable formation. If he rashly broke into it, even he might not be able to escape unscathed.

Not far in front of Xiao Lin, there was a dark stone palace, square, with several huge stone pillars standing in front of the door, supporting the entire dome more than ten feet high.

Arriving in front of the stone hall, Xiao Lin walked in. The hall was bright, and Xiao Lin saw the long-burning lamps on the stone pillars around the hall.

Passing through the hall corridor, Xiao Lin turned around a screen carved with surging waves and walked into the hall.

The hall was decorated magnificently, and as soon as he entered the hall, Xiao Lin smelled a strong floral scent. Xiao Lin also saw three female cultivators wearing lavender fish-scale robes standing in the hall.

Among the three female cultivators, one was in the middle stage of foundation building, and the other two were in the early stage of foundation building.

Seeing Xiao Lin coming in, the female cultivator with a melon seed face in the middle came up to him, smiled, and said, "What's your name, senior? Are you here to rent a cave for cultivation in our Black Stone Mountain?"

Xiao Lin heard this, and there was a hint of surprise in his eyes. He did not show the spiritual pressure of the Golden Core Stage, but the disciple of the Yu Shui Palace in the middle stage of foundation building could tell at a glance that he was a Golden Core cultivator, which really surprised Xiao Lin.

"Please don't be surprised, senior. When you entered our hall, you might not have noticed that there is a Guanyuan Mirror hanging above the hall, which can sense your realm. That's why I know that you are a Jindan cultivator." After hearing the woman's explanation, Xiao Lin showed an expression of realization.
