Chapter 239: Rumors About the Jade Dew in the Spirit World, Auction!
After hearing this, President Zheng thought for a while and asked:
"Master, do you want to buy some heavenly materials and earthly treasures?"
Lin Chen nodded after hearing this.
President Zheng smiled after hearing this and said:
"The master has asked the right person. There are three most famous auctions in Dao City."
"Dao Dao Auction House, this is the auction house of Dao Dao Sect. Naturally, there is no need to say more..."
"In addition to this auction house, there are also the Money Chamber of Commerce and our Guangyuan Chamber of Commerce whose auction houses are the most famous..."
"If Master needs it, I have a VIP token..."
With that said, President Zheng handed over a golden token with the word Guangyuan engraved on it.
Afterwards, Chairman Zheng explained to Lin Chen some of the auction times and locations of the three major auction houses.
Lin Chen put away the token, exchanged greetings with President Zheng, and then returned to his residence.
After changing his appearance, Lin Chen returned to his original appearance and returned to the medicine shop.
"The Money Chamber of Commerce, the annual large-scale auction...is just three days away?"
Lin Chen murmured.
He found President Zheng this time not because he wanted to auction it as a member of the Fengling Yueying Sect, but because he needed some rare items and needed to go to the auction.
"The jade dew of the spiritual world, it would be best if it comes naturally..."
Lin Chen shook his head, knowing that this chance was slim.
but……
His heart moved slightly as the Xuantian Bao Gourd appeared in Lin Chen's hand.
Lin Chen poked the gentleman into the gourd, and soon saw a small group of transparent liquid in the corner of the internal space.
"Xuan Tian Bao Gourd consumes spiritual stones and emits a large amount of pure spiritual energy..."
"When the spiritual energy reaches a certain level, it turns into spiritual liquid."
Lin Chen's heart moved slightly, and he wrapped it with true essence and took out this small group of spiritual liquid from the gourd.
The amount is not much, about 200 drops, which is only a few milliliters.
But this little bit of spiritual liquid was all that Xuantian Bao Gourd had produced in half a year.
On average, only one drop is born every day.
"It's just that this spiritual liquid...is it the jade dew of the spiritual world?"
Lin Chen was a little unsure.
He couldn't ask others, let alone make a direct conclusion.
But Lin Chen had taken a few drops, and the spiritual liquid was indeed very effective in practicing medicine.
The spiritual energy contained in a drop of spiritual liquid is comparable to hundreds of low-grade spiritual stones...
But that's it. Lin Chen can take this spiritual liquid to speed up his cultivation.
But unfortunately, there is too little spiritual liquid.
In addition, it is far from achieving the magical effect of jade dew in the spiritual world as Jiang Liqian said.
"Taking these spiritual liquids won't be of much help to your practice, so let's keep them for now..."
Lin Chen waved his hand, and the true essence wrapped in the spiritual fluid returned to the Xuantian Bao Gourd.
"Three jade gourds, the Xuantian treasure gourd fused with them is indeed a superior magic weapon..."
"Ten feet of storage space, escape speed bonus, nurturing spiritual liquid..."
"It's just that the birth speed of this spiritual liquid seems to be a bit too slow..."
Lin Chen frowned slightly. At this rate, the spiritual fluid he accumulated for a year would probably be enough for ten days of practice.
Of course, spiritual liquid is different from spiritual stones and can be absorbed quickly.
This is equivalent to Lin Chen gaining ten extra days of cultivation for every year of practice...
The speed of practice is three percent faster...
"Well, the more I think about it, the more useless it becomes. What's going on?"
Lin Chen shook his head helplessly.
"However, according to Junior Sister Jiang...the more gourds that are fused, the closer the Xuantian Bao gourd will be to perfection."
"The fusion of the three jade gourds is just a remnant. There is also a ruby jade gourd from the senior sister..."
The red jade gourd can nourish spiritual weapons and is also useful for Lin Chen.
Although Lin Chen asked Shijie directly for it, and the senior sister would most likely give it to him, Lin Chen didn't want to do that.
After all, it was a gift from Master to Senior Sister...
Therefore, Lin Chen planned to buy a magic weapon that could replace the ruby gourd in exchange.
"Three days later, the Money Chamber of Commerce's auction... you can only watch it at this auction..." Lin Chen touched his chin.
…
In the blink of an eye, three days passed.
Asking the city, it is in the north of Shangcheng District.
This is the most prosperous area of Dao City. Although Dao City is vast, it is already close to a small country.
But in the north of the city, every inch of land is still at a premium.
But in a place with such a small amount of land, there is a magnificent and huge building.
It covers an area of thousands of feet and has six upper and lower floors, just like a huge palace.
Here is the headquarters of the Money Chamber of Commerce.
Being able to set up its headquarters in Dao Dao City, one can imagine the power of the Money Chamber of Commerce.
Lin Chen stood at the door of the Chamber of Commerce, watching the people coming and going at the entrance of the hall.
Qi refining and foundation building monks can also come in and out, and many golden elixir and even Nascent Soul monks can also be seen.
At the entrance of the palace, there was a banner.
"The 30,000th anniversary of the establishment of the Money Chamber of Commerce is celebrated, and the annual auction is about to begin..."
Lin Chen glanced at it and quickly entered the chamber of commerce.
The auction is held on the first floor of the Chamber of Commerce.
After Lin Chen showed his cultivation of the golden elixir, he successfully entered it.
The auction venue was huge, and thousands of people had already come to the venue.
However, most of the foundation-building monks and golden elixir monks are rare.
Just when Lin Chen was confused, a voice came.
"Fellow Taoist, what do you want to buy?"
The speaker is a man wearing steward's clothes.
Lin Chen only took one look and was in awe. This man was the Nascent Soul cultivator...
Lin Chen considered it for a moment, then cupped his hands and said:
"Senior, I want to buy some rare treasures from heaven and earth..."
After hearing this, the steward nodded and said:
"Eighth turn golden elixir, you are qualified to go to the inner field. The outer field is full of ordinary objects, most of which you will not look down on."
"Follow me..."
As he said this, the steward led the way in front.
Lin Chen did not think much and followed him.
Not long after, through a small door, Lin Chen came to another venue.
This venue was only a hundred feet in radius, and there were only a few hundred cultivators present.
At least they were at the golden elixir stage.
Compared with the outer field, the inner field looked much more noble.
Lin Chen found a seat and sat down, and took a wooden sign with the number 567 on it.
This meant that Lin Chen was the 567th cultivator to enter.
Lin Chen sat on a soft chair, closed his eyes and rested, but actually paid attention to the cultivators coming in and out around him.
After Lin Chen, more than 200 cultivators entered.
Finally, after the number of people stabilized at 800, the gate to the inner field was closed.
A female cultivator with a dignified temperament walked up.
"Dear Daoists, I am the auctioneer of this auction. You can just call me Xuan'er."
"There are a total of 42 items in this auction. The detailed list is in the secret compartment next to the armrest of the wooden chairs of Daoists."
"The first auction item will be on stage. I wish all Daoists can win the items they like."
After saying that, the female cultivator prepared on the stage.
And the cultivators below, including Lin Chen, took out the auction list.
Lin Chen quickly scanned the list and was soon interested in several items.
"As expected of the Money Chamber of Commerce, these auction items are really good..."
Lin Chen sat down again and looked ahead.
The female auctioneer took out a wooden box and whispered:
"The first item is the top-grade Jinyuan Pill."
"This pill was made by Master Fengmu and is close to perfect quality. It can at least increase the probability of condensing the golden pill by 40%."
"You fellow Taoists may not need it, but some of my nephews and nieces need it."
"Whether it is left for future generations or given as a gift, it is a good choice."
"The starting price is 500,000 spirit stones, and each bid must not be less than 10,000 spirit stones."
Soon, as the first item came out, many cultivators began to bid.
Lin Chen nodded slightly and praised in his heart.
"The top-grade Jinyuan Pill is just the first item to attract attention. It is really good. I came to the right auction..."
"And this female auctioneer is also very capable. She does not rely on beauty to seduce. Instead, she meticulously introduces the items and possible uses..."
Lin Chen smacked his lips.
Although he has been in the city of Tao for a long time, this is his first time to attend an auction, which is considered to be a great experience.
Soon, this top-grade Jinyuan Pill was auctioned at a price of 760,000 spirit stones.
It was slightly higher than the market price.
Lin Chen sat in his seat, quietly waiting for the surrounding monks to bid, but he did not bid rashly.
He had a few items that interested him, but he still needed to keep his strength.
…
After a while, the female auctioneer took out a jade bottle and said:
"Next, the ninth auction item, a bottle of spirit liquid..."
"There are a total of 5,000 drops of spirit liquid in this bottle, which is equivalent to the total amount of cultivation provided by 500,000 spirit stones."
"Some Taoist friends may not have heard of spirit liquid, so I will introduce it to you."
Under the stage, Lin Chen's heart moved slightly when he heard this scene.
He was 70% to 80% sure that the spirit liquid the auctioneer was talking about was the same as the one produced in his gourd.
The female auctioneer told the story slowly.
"Spiritual liquid is rare in the lower realm. Only in some places with abundant spiritual energy will some be naturally produced."
"Compared with spiritual energy and spiritual stones, the cultivation provided by spiritual liquid is more refined and very easy to absorb."
"In addition, the spiritual jade dew... I believe you have all heard of it."
"This spiritual liquid is a weakened version of the spiritual jade dew. When its quality reaches the extreme, it is called the spiritual jade dew."
After a pause, the female auctioneer said shockingly:
"It is rumored that there was a special secret method that can purify spiritual liquid into spiritual jade dew... but I don't know whether it is true or not."
Speaking of this, the cultivators below have been moved a lot.
Spiritual jade dew, this thing of the heavenly people, is always a lot of temptation for the cultivators below.
"A bottle of spiritual liquid, 5,000 drops, the starting price is 800,000 spiritual stones, and each bid must not be less than 10,000." The female auctioneer said.
The price of this bottle of spiritual liquid has been rising steadily in the bidding of many cultivators.
Soon the price broke through the million mark and rushed all the way to 1.5 million spirit stones.
"VIP No. 17, bid 1.48 million spirit stones, is there anyone who can bid higher?" The female auctioneer shouted.
At this moment, most of the guests were silent.
Five thousand drops of spirit liquid, the total amount of spiritual energy contained is equivalent to 500,000 spirit stones.
This is nearly three times the premium, everyone is not a fool.
Seeing that the female auctioneer was about to drop the hammer, Lin Chen shouted.
"One million and six hundred thousand spirit stones."
"VIP No. 567 bid 1.6 million spirit stones! Is there anyone who can bid higher?" The female auctioneer was also a little surprised, but quickly adjusted and asked.
After a while, she rang the hammer.
"Congratulations to VIP No. 567, the auction was successful!"
