Celestial being

Wulu said, thinking of his experiences over the years, he suddenly sighed: "Well, Brother Yuan, you may not have much feeling. The liberation of the mine may have been just a whim, but it has actually changed many people, including me. It’s your destiny, and for this reason, I should toast you.”

Wulu stood up, picked up the tea cup, looked at Yuan Ming, and drank the contents of the cup in one gulp.

Yuan Ming also had some impressions, and then the two of them talked about their experiences and interesting things over the years. They continued to chat until the sky was dark and the teahouse was closed, but they were still interested.

They didn't return to their temporary residence until they made an appointment to meet again tomorrow.

A few days passed in the blink of an eye. Bishui Rou and Yan Siyun collected information about people who might attend the conference on various islands, compiled them, and found out the threatening opponents.

Yuan Ming ignored this matter and practiced step by step every day. In his free time, he went to Wulu to drink and chat, or went to the market to collect other information about poppies. He lived a very happy life.

Early that morning, when Yuan Ming came out of the house, sisters Yan Siyun were discussing something in the courtyard.

Yan Sijing saw Yuan Ming coming out and waved to him excitedly: "Fellow Daoist Yuan, I heard that there is a large-scale auction in Fusang City today. Do you want to go and see it with us?"

"Large-scale auction? Who is hosting it?" Yuan Ming walked to them.

Yan Siyun nodded towards Yuan Ming: "It's Fusang Island. During every fairy fruit fair, Fusang Island will have a series of auction arrangements. There is a small auction every seven days and a large auction every twenty days. Today is the first one." It is a large-scale auction, and it is said that the finale is a Nascent Soul stage magic weapon, I wonder if Fellow Daoist Yuan is interested?"

"It doesn't hurt to go take a look if you have nothing to do." Yuan Ming nodded and said.

He has already collected most of the auxiliary materials for poppy poppies, and there are still a few things missing. He is planning to go to Fangshi, Wuzu District to have a look. Now that he has the opportunity, he might as well go to the auction here in Donghai, maybe he can find it. Those two spiritual materials.

At this moment, not far away, Bi Shuirou came out of the house and walked towards them slowly.

Seeing this situation, Yuan Ming took the initiative to invite: "Fellow Taoist Bishui is here just in time. There is a large-scale auction in the city today. Do you want to go with me?"

"Large-scale auction? I see, it's about this time, but I won't go. The spiritual stones on my body have their own uses, and there is really no way to squeeze out the excess." Bishuirou smiled bitterly.

Yuan Ming was not surprised by this. Although these island owners have a large territory and have some third-class island vassals under their command. Their income is not low, but their relative expenses are also very large. The reserved spiritual stones are not easy to use rashly. In fact, on the contrary, This is the freedom that comes from a monk from a small family like him.

"However, if you want to go, you can use the identity of Hongzhi Island. According to the rules, all 128 participating islands can directly enter the box without paying admission fees. Well, when you get there, you will Just show this token to the people at the auction." Bishuirou said, took out a token and handed it to Yuan Ming.

Afterwards, she left in a hurry, as if she had a tea party with other island owners to attend.

Before leaving, Yuan Ming went to see Xi Ying and invited her to go with him. However, Xi Ying was not interested. After thinking for a moment, she rejected Yuan Ming and continued to practice in seclusion.

…

Golden Feather Auction House is located at the northernmost end of Wuzu District. It is a large three-story building with a bowl-shaped structure. It looks somewhat similar to a bird's nest.

When Yuan Ming and Yan Siyun arrived, many people were already lined up at the entrance of the auction house, waiting to enter.

However, when Yuan Ming took out the token and showed it in front of the auction house attendant, the attendant immediately and respectfully guided Yuan Ming and the others into the box on the second floor.

The outer wall of the box is a layer of black crystal, and there are special restrictions inside. From here, you can clearly see the situation below, but the people below cannot see into the box.

After a simple inquiry, Yuan Ming learned that all the seats on the first floor of the auction house only need to pay an admission fee of ten spirit stones to be seated, while the private rooms on the second floor are only available to monks with certificates, and there is no special designation. , except for the auction house, no one else knows which island family is sitting in each box, or whose members are members of the broken alliance.

As for the third floor, it is the exclusive room of the Yuanying ancestors.

Yuan Mingping dismissed his attendants, and while waiting for the auction to begin, he boredly looked through the auction list placed in the box.

There will be a lot of things in this auction, including elixirs or magic weapons that can be used during the elixir formation stage, or large objects such as formations specially provided for the island forces.

Yuan Ming looked all the way and found that neither of the two spiritual materials he wanted was available. He did win a few other items, but they were not urgently needed. If the final auction price was high, he would not bid to the death.

However, perhaps to maintain mystery, the last five lots on the auction list were not introduced in detail, but the categories were briefly mentioned.

The Nascent Soul stage magic weapon that Yan Siyun mentioned was the last item to be auctioned. He did not elaborate on it, but only pointed out that it was a water attribute magic weapon.

Yuan Ming put down the auction list and was about to close his eyes to recuperate when he caught a glimpse of a gray figure wearing a bamboo hat walking in from the outside and quickly entered a box on the second floor, which was not far from him.

"Is it him?" A trace of surprise flashed in Yuan Ming's eyes, and a faint sense of consciousness spread out.

The robe on the gray figure has the effect of isolating spiritual detection, but Yuan Ming did not want to detect this person, he just sensed his breath, and soon gained something.

"It is indeed him, why is he here?" Yuan Ming thought to himself.

The gray figure was none other than Wu Yuezhi, who appeared in the Shura Palace that day with Ni Mu, who had broken off his alliance at dawn. This person came here to participate in the auction. Why was he so sneaky?

Wu Yuezhi sat down in the box and raised his hand to wave. A black mist enveloped the surroundings, and Yuan Ming's consciousness could not penetrate it.

"Fellow Daoist Yuan, what happened?" Yan Siyun seemed to notice the change in Yuan Ming's expression and asked.

"It's nothing. I just saw someone I knew, but I couldn't see him again after entering the box." Yuan Ming said casually.

"Which box? Do you need me to send someone over to say hello?" Yan Siyun said.

"No, we're not particularly familiar with each other. Do you have a clear goal for participating in the auction?" Yuan Ming shook his head and asked, changing the subject.

"Well, I plan to take some precious spiritual materials and demon elixirs, refine a batch of high-quality elixirs, and establish the name of Baidanfang as soon as possible." Yan Siyun said.

Yuan Ming nodded and asked no more questions.

Time passed, and as other monks entered one after another, the auction officially began soon.

"Look at the auction list. Golden Feather Auction House really brought out a lot of good things this time. What good things are Brother Lin prepared to get?"

"With this little family background, Brother Wang still doesn't know. If there are really valuable treasures, which turn will get us? I have heard that Master Bai Lin of Thousand Snake Island, Queen Mingkong of Bishu Island, Jin Hua Zhenren of Qianlong Island, etc. The great masters from the Nascent Soul stage are here, so we’d better buy some affordable things.”

"I'm also talking about being able to buy those few pieces of clear water soft crystals and practice the Canglan Jue to the eighth level. I'm also satisfied."

Two voices came from the box next to him.

When Yuan Ming heard this, he glanced towards the third floor of the venue, but he didn't pay too much attention.

The person in charge of hosting the auction is a female cultivator in colorful clothes who is in the alchemy stage.

"The little girl is Xiao Jing from the Golden Feather Auction House! I have met all of you fellow Taoists. This auction will be hosted by the little girl. I hope you can buy what you want..." The female cultivator in colorful clothes beamed.

After the gong sounded, the auction officially began, and items were brought to the stage in a smooth flow.

The female nun in colorful clothes is not only beautiful in appearance, but also very eloquent. Under her leadership, many auction items were sold at unusual prices. Under the stimulation of such an atmosphere, the monks who participated in the meeting were very interested in The bidding actually became enthusiastic.

However, Yuan Ming in the box remained calm and unaffected by the atmosphere. He made several bids but only reached the end.

But because of this, only two of the auction items he was interested in ended up in his hands.

One is a wood attribute demon elixir, which is swallowed and refined by Huazhi, and the other is a set of magic arrays called Yimu Spirit Gathering Array.

The effect of this array is very simple. It relies on the power of the array and the wood attribute spiritual stones in the array to condense the surrounding wood attribute aura, creating a richer aura environment and increasing the speed of cultivation.

Although the effect of Yimu Spirit Gathering Array is good, it can increase the spiritual energy concentration by up to 50%, but it consumes a lot of spiritual stones and is relatively useless. Not many people took action, so Yuan Ming took it down.

Compared with him, Yan Siyun came here very well prepared.

Whenever there is a spiritual material or demon pill worthy of attention, she will take action without hesitation. She seems to have already investigated the identities of those who are bidding against her, and every time the price is increased, she can get stuck at a price that is neither high nor low. The location will not only make bidders hesitate, but it will not be too much higher than the price of the lot itself.

In this way, although she took a lot of spiritual materials and demon pills, the real cost was not as huge as imagined.

Yuan Ming watched from the side and couldn't help but admire this woman's methods. If it weren't for her talent and strength, she might have become the leader of a large force just by collecting and using intelligence.

"...Then the next auction item is a fire of apricot wood and green fire. As the so-called five elements are born, there are many types of five elements in heaven and earth. Among them, there are five categories: real fire, strange water, strange wood, heavy stone, and strange metal. The most mysterious thing is that this apricot wood green fire is a real fire that we have spent a lot of effort to collect. It is different from ordinary real fires. This fire is wood in nature. It is ineffective when used in attacks, but it has health-promoting properties. The healing effect, after refining, can warm the body of the monks and repair the hidden wounds left. At the same time, due to the gentle nature of this fire, it is perfect for refining elixirs. However, due to insufficient firepower, it cannot be used for refining elixirs. It’s also a pity especially for utensils.”

On the stage, the voice of the female cultivator in colorful clothes came slowly and fell into the box, but Yan Siyun looked happy. After the female cultivator reported the starting price, she immediately started bidding.
