Chapter 263 Qinghuatan Auction

Li Qing finally decided to attend the auction that Taoist Qingyang was about to hold.

His cultivation had just broken through, and it would not be very efficient to continue to practice hard. It would be better to go out and attend this auction to broaden his horizons.

Li Qing used the Dragon Dagger to clean the messy hair on his face, and whispered to himself: "It seems that more than four years have allowed Senior Qingyang to completely digest the spoils of the remnants of the Shi family."

"Now that he is taking the lead in holding such an auction, he probably plans to sell off all the things that are useless to him, or replace them with the items he needs."

After cleaning up, Li Qing changed from the image of a wild man in the mountains to the appearance of a good young man again.

However, he pondered for a while, and finally decided to do some work on his face, trying to make himself look more vicissitudes, and reveal a little aging.

Although the aging speed of immortal cultivators is relatively slow, if his face has not changed at all after so many years and he is still in his prime, it will attract some attention.

Especially Qingyang Taoist, Li Qing has known him for more than ten years. It has been at least ten years since Ye Feng first introduced him to the secret trade fair.

Li Qing thought about it, and then messed up his hair again, and then adjusted his blood and qi, making his face look a little gloomy.

Soon, the image of a cultivator struggling to survive at the bottom of the immortal world emerged!

Since he was going to participate in the auction, Li Qing naturally planned to bid for something.

There were still some magic tools in the storage bag that Li Qing had won before. Although Li Qing looked down on them, it did not mean that other casual cultivators looked down on them.

You must know that other casual cultivators living in the outer layer of Qinghuatan will definitely participate in this joint auction. These casual cultivators at the bottom naturally cannot afford the top-grade magic tools, and they may not even be able to afford the middle-grade magic tools.

Therefore, these inferior magic tools that Li Qing didn't think much of were definitely what these casual cultivators were eager to get.

In addition, some elixirs that he no longer used, such as Guangling Pills or Huaqi Pills, could also be sold together.

Qinghuatan is located in a remote area, and if you want to buy some of these elixirs on weekdays, you have to go a long way.

For many casual cultivators who live in seclusion here, it is a relatively troublesome thing.

Therefore, as long as Li Qing lowers the reserve price of the elixirs on the shelves, there will be no worries about no one buying them. After all, this kind of elixir that improves magic power is hard currency wherever it is placed.

In this way, ten days passed in a flash, and an auction led by Taoist Qingyang arrived as scheduled.

The auction was held at the edge of the Qinghuatan Lake. An open-air platform has been built here. The surrounding spiritual energy is rich and the scenery is beautiful. It is also an elegant place.

Figures flew over one after another, and the sound of breaking through the air continued to resound. The aura was quite strong, and there were even many foundation-building cultivators among them.

Of course, these foundation-building cultivators were basically invited, either by Taoist Qingyang's connections or by friends of several other foundation-building cultivators in Qinghuatan.

In short, the style of this auction was really quite high. Including the local foundation-building cultivators in Qinghuatan, there were actually eleven foundation-building cultivators present.

Li Qing also floated out of his cave. He glanced at the foundation-building cultivators sitting in the front row in a low-key manner, and then quickly retracted his gaze.

What surprised him was that among those foundation-building cultivators, there were a few familiar faces to him.

They were the ones he saw when he went to Jiuxiao's foundation-building celebration before. They were the younger foundation-building elders of Tianhe Sect, the backbone of the sect.

The reason why he was able to come here this time was obviously because of Taoist Qingyang's favor.

There were so many cultivators in the foundation-building stage present, so Li Qing naturally wanted to keep a low profile and try to watch more and talk less.

After Li Qing sat down, several casual cultivators around him greeted him in a flattering manner.

"Congratulations, Master Li, it seems that your magic power has improved again during this retreat!"

"I haven't seen you for a few years, but Master Li's demeanor remains the same."

"Hello, Master Li!"

In the face of these flattering greetings, Li Qing did not fall behind in etiquette, but responded one by one with a smile.

There was no way, it was not that he didn't want to keep a low profile, but that he was indeed more famous among the casual cultivators in Qinghuatan in recent years.

Not to mention the identity of a weapon refiner, many people knew that Li Qing had friendships with many cultivators in the foundation-building stage.

For example, Taoist Qingyang, and the foundation-building celebration of a certain Tianhe Sect elder that Li Qing had participated in before, and Liu Hanyue who successfully built a foundation here four years ago.

Just based on this network of contacts, it is something that many low-level casual practitioners dare not even think about.

After a round of greetings, Taoist Qingyang finally stepped onto the open-air platform. He still had that amiable smile on his face, which has become his signature move.

"Hehe, fellow Taoists are willing to give me such a face and come here to participate in the auction. Some people even came from thousands of miles away. I would like to thank you in advance!"

"The reason for holding this auction is simple. I have gained some good things in the past few years, but for me, it is just some accumulation. I simply held this auction to share one or two with you fellow Taoists, so that I can look forward to the great road."

As soon as these words came out, there were friendly laughters from the audience.

"This is a great kindness. If everyone in the world of immortality can be like Senior Qingyang, the path to immortality will be truly promising!"

"Hahaha, I've heard that senior Qingyang killed several remnants of the historians four years ago, eliminating a trouble for our Tianhe Sect, and bringing peace to the world of immortality!"

"I'm curious about how much of the historian's core inheritance these remnants have in their hands. The old ghost Shi Fan's magical powers were quite strong back then."

"."

Seeing that everyone was in good spirits, Taoist Qingyang also smiled and nodded, and said: "Ahem, I won't talk nonsense, let the auction begin now!"

Later, Taoist Qingyang took out a tray from the storage bag that had been prepared, with three white jade porcelain bottles on it.

"Each of these three porcelain bottles contains twelve pills, including the Guangling Pill and the Qi Transformation Pill. I guess the effectiveness of these two pills does not require me to waste any time, right?"

"The starting price for each bottle is one hundred spiritual stones!"

Twelve pills that can increase mana in the middle stage of Qi refining, the starting price is only one hundred spirit stones, this is definitely a very good deal!

In an instant, the casual cultivators in the Qi refining stage who were sitting at the back started competing to grab a bottle for their own cultivation.

Seeing the high emotions of everyone around him, Li Qing couldn't help but touch his nose. This auction was from him. He had no use for these elixirs anymore, so he naturally took them and sent them to the auction in exchange for a sum of spiritual stones.

"I'll give you three hundred and ten spiritual stones!"

As a powerful voice fell, the other casual cultivators stopped shouting prices, and looked with regret as the last bottle of elixir, which was far lower than the market price, fell into the hands of others.

In the corner of the auction house, Xu Sanniang's face looked extremely anxious, but she had insufficient financial resources and watched helplessly as three bottles of elixirs fell into the hands of different cultivators.

She didn't want to bid for herself, but wanted to buy it for her son to use as training materials, in the hope that her son could go further.

Unfortunately, her financial resources were limited, and even though the prices of these three bottles of elixirs were low enough, she still couldn't afford them.

"Oh, it would be great if we auctioned them off one by one. This way, Cao Er, your path would be smoother." Xu Sanniang sighed in despair.

Cao Xiu's fair little face was very determined. He said, "Mom, it doesn't matter. I can still practice even without pills."

Other casual cultivators who had not bought it also expressed regret: "Oh, what a pity. I went to Tianhefang City half a year ago. If I had known that there would be such cheap elixirs today, I should have saved the spiritual stones. of."

"Me too. Tianhefang City was just built last year. I couldn't help but go to Lingfeng Tower, but I spent all the spiritual stones there."

"Let's take a look. Senior Qingyang is very sincere in this auction. I think there will be lots suitable for us in the future."

"."

Listening to everyone around him talking to each other, Li Qing felt quite comfortable in his heart.

The three bottles of elixir bought a total of more than 800 spirit stones. After excluding the handling fees deducted by Taoist Qingyang and other foundation-building monks, Li Qing also bought more than 700 spirit stones.

It can be considered a small fortune.

"The second lot is a 400-year-old Rehmannia glutinosa essence! The starting price is six hundred spiritual stones!"

As he spoke, Taoist Qingyang took out a piece of elixir that looked like turmeric from his hand. It was about the size of a fist and looked extremely solid.

As soon as it was taken out, there were many gasps.

"Hiss! The 400-year-old Rehmannia glutinosa essence is rare!"

"Extension of life by forty years. If it can be refined into Dihuang Life Extension Pill, the effect will be even more amazing."

"Taoist Priest Qingyang, if you don't want to take such a precious elixir yourself, are you really willing to sell it?"

Rehmannia glutinosa, a life-extending elixir, can extend a monk's life by one year every ten years. Four hundred-year-old Rehmannia glutinosa can directly add forty years to a person's life!

Of course, there are limitations to these magical items, that is, you can only eat one Rehmannia glutinosa plant in your life, and eating it after that will have no effect.

Therefore, many powerful monks will try their best to find some rehmannia glutinosa that are old enough to eat. Basically, those who are less than a hundred years old will not be able to catch their eyes.

And the current 400-year-old Rehmannia glutinosa plant is enough to make all the foundation-building monks present who have never taken Rehmannia glutinosa spirit excited.

Hearing someone joking, Taoist Qingyang also said with a wry smile: "I don't want to put it up for auction. Unfortunately, in the early years, I once ate a two-hundred-year-old Rehmannia glutinosa plant. Otherwise, how could I treat such a four-year-old plant?" How about selling the hundred-year-old Rehmannia glutinosa essence?”

When he said this, Taoist Qingyang's tone was indeed quite regretful. This time, it was equivalent to losing more than twenty years of life.

For a foundation-building monk of his age, this is indeed a great loss.

Soon, someone couldn't wait to shout the price.

"I'll give you eight hundred spiritual stones!"

"Rehmannia glutinosa essence of this age is already extremely rare, and it is worth fighting for! Eight hundred and fifty spiritual stones!"

"A thousand spiritual stones!"

The last person to shout was an elder from the Tianhe Sect. His tone was firm and he looked determined to win.

"Junior brother Ma, I remember you took a piece of Rehmannia glutinosa, why are you still bidding?"

The junior brother named Ma smiled and said nothing, and did not answer his senior brother's words.

But soon, another Tianhe Sect elder reacted.

"I remember a few years ago, didn't Patriarch Wanshan say that he wanted to harvest Rehmannia glutinosa essence? Could it be that Patriarch Wanshan didn't take Rehmannia glutinosa essence?!"

"Hiss! I remember that in a few years it will be the 500th birthday of Ancestor Wanshan!"

As soon as these words came out, the price of Polygonatum japonica here went up. It was immediately raised. Several elders from the Tianhe Sect started fighting among themselves and began to raise the price one after another. The other casual cultivators had to smile bitterly and retreat.

Finally, the piece of Rehmannia glutinosa was sold for 1,800 spiritual stones and fell into the hands of the Tianhe Sect elder named Ma.

With the first two lots being taken out, the atmosphere of the auction was finally aroused.

Both the monks in the foundation building stage and the monks in the Qi refining stage present were extremely looking forward to the next auction.

"Pairs of low-grade magic weapons and double swords of ice and fire can be combined to exert a power that is not weaker than that of mid-grade magic weapons!"

"The starting price is two hundred spirit stones!"

"A mysterious treasure map. I found it in the storage bag of a remnant of the historian's family, but it was a incomplete map."

"The starting price is fifty spiritual stones."

"Phoenix Snow Wood, an important spiritual material for arranging formations."

"."

One after another, the auction items were extremely precious, and their authenticity really opened the eyes of the casual cultivators present during the Qi Refining Period.

There are some things that many people have never heard of, but that doesn’t stop them from thinking about it.

Especially for the cheap treasure map, many casual cultivators in the Qi refining stage participated in the auction, and it was finally sold to one person for a price of 150 spiritual stones.

Although this item is cheap, the other monks in the foundation-building stage have a tacit understanding and do not participate in the bidding. They are all old foxes.

During this period, the low-grade magical artifacts that Li Qingji had auctioned were also sold in batches, allowing him to harvest another four hundred spiritual stones.

The atmosphere was getting hotter and hotter, and occasionally one or two auxiliary medicines for the Foundation Establishment Pill would appear. When Li Qing saw what he was missing, he would naturally take pictures of them.

He is now more than above or below. Naturally, he does not dare to compete with the things that the monks in the Foundation Establishment Stage are interested in. As for the auxiliary medicines of the Foundation Establishment Pill, the monks in the Foundation Establishment Stage are not very interested.

Therefore, Li Qing's photo was successfully taken, and other casual cultivators in the Qi refining period also chose to give in.

But when it came to the last few auction items, there was a spiritual object among them, which made Li Qing clenched his hand tightly!

"This is the trunk of a Baoyuan tree. I visually estimate that the tree is nearly five hundred years old. The essence of the spiritual wood inside is very rich."

"I think you can understand the value of this kind of spiritual wood even if I don't tell you. It is a good material for refining weapons. It can even be used to make top-quality magical weapons."

"The starting price is one thousand spiritual stones!"

As Taoist Qingyang's voice fell, the noisy atmosphere in the venue fell silent for a moment, and then there was an uproar.

Spiritual materials that can be refined into top-quality magic weapons are really valuable!

Even Li Qing, who had always been calm, couldn't help but breathe a little faster.
