Cultivating the Dao, Starting with Farming
Chapter 201 Auction (Part 2)
In the wing room, Li Mu sat by the window, sipping the spirit wine and looking at the scenery of the lobby below, with everything in sight.
There are hundreds of seats in the center of the lobby. Nascent Soul monks and representatives of major forces enter one after another. Most of them are accompanied by young, beautiful and slim female cultivators.
The seats in the auditorium in the lobby are also divided into classes. Those with stronger spiritual pressure or representatives of a certain force are placed in the front row of the auditorium.
After that, they were sorted one by one, and the weakest casual cultivators sat in the back row and in the lobby where hundreds of people were seated, and soon the seats were filled with people.
Li Mu saw Taoist Wanling in the center. He had friends wherever he went and was chatting with several Nascent Soul Lords.
Seeing this scene, Li Mu put down his wine glass and frowned, thinking about something.
In addition to the nearly 100 VIP guests in the Xiang Pavilion and the more than 500 Nascent Soul cultivators in the lobby, the rest were representatives of some forces and casual cultivators, all with strengths above the Golden Core.
The auction has not officially started yet, the monks are chatting with each other, and the scene is very lively.
About half an hour passed.
"Dang, dong, dong, dong…" Several clear and melodious bells rang out, echoing throughout the lobby.
The sound of the bell obviously comes from a magical instrument. The long bell sound is like the sound of Buddha, with a wonderful meaning of soothing the soul. The listener's mood and restless emotions gradually calm down.
Suddenly, the noisy lobby became quiet.
The next moment, Lin Baoqing smiled broadly, walked out from the inside of the lobby, and slowly walked onto the auction stage. Four powerful gods were accompanying him, and the four of them formed a four-sided formation.
Quietly, a wonderful fantasy formation was formed, protecting Lin Baoqing in the middle with extremely high security.
"Is this necessary?"
Li Mu has participated in auctions many times, but this is the first time he has seen something like this.
Just when Li Mu was wondering about Lin Baoqing's pomp, a clear voice sounded in the wing, and Wan'er's voice came from outside the door: "Senior, shopkeeper Lin has arranged for the meals to be delivered. Is it convenient to open the door?"
"come in!"
The door opened in response, and Wan'er and seven or eight people brought a lot of exquisite spiritual meals, such as stewed spiritual chicken with lotus, steamed precious spiritual fish, Duobao pagoda,... all kinds of precious delicacies, full of aroma.
"Senior, please take your time. This auction will last for one day. Due to the large number of bids, there is no fixed classification of fabrics for each auction." Wan'er kindly reminded.
Li Mu nodded, a little surprised. He didn't expect that this auction would take a day, which was indeed a bit rare.
Wan'er is clever and has been a receptionist for so many years. She is also good at observing people's words. Seeing Li Mu's confusion, she immediately replied: "The ancient city is the gateway to other spiritual realms and the junction with Zhongzhou. There are many visitors, so there will be many rare treasures. The road People passing through this place will send them here for auction in exchange for the required reward.”
"Therefore, the traffic volume is large and there are many auction items, so the duration will be much longer. When the classification is very large, shopkeeper Lin simply does not classify the items, and takes out one item at a time and starts bidding."
"Similarly, due to the large number of items being auctioned and the extremely high wealth, there have been cases of illegal robbery by some magic cultivators who do not abide by the law or some thieves relying on their own strength!"
"In addition to the four guardians guarding Shopkeeper Lin, there are three law enforcement officers from the Void Refining Realm on the ninth floor, also staring at the scene."
Three people in the Void Refining Realm?
Li Mu had a sudden thought and couldn't help but raise his head. He didn't expect that there were hidden grids on the ninth floor, and he didn't expect that there were three powerful virtual masters hidden in Wanbao Pavilion.
"Will it be okay if you tell me this secret?"
Li Mu smiled and nodded, looking at Wan'er and asking curiously.
"Hehe, senior, you are worrying too much. There are many people who know the existence of the three law enforcement masters. It is no secret for a long time!" Wan'er covered her mouth and chuckled.
Li Mu understood and couldn't help but sigh. This ancient city was by no means as peaceful as it appeared. In fact, there was an undercurrent surging.
There is a lot of traffic, so it is inevitable that some cult members will hide here.
Presumably, people from the Nine Demon Sect are also hiding in the ancient city. It seems that he is still keeping a low profile and will never take action unless necessary.
It seems that if you have time, you should go to Tianji Pavilion to visit and pay attention to the current hot news.
While Li Mu was thinking, on the auction stage, Lin Baoqing's strong true energy gathered in his mouth, and he laughed loudly: "Dear guests, welcome to the auction held by Wanbao Pavilion. You must all know me, so I will waste my time introducing myself. In this world, There are countless spiritual objects, and those who are destined will get them. It is also fate that everyone can meet here. I hope everyone will open their hearts, participate in the bidding, act with strength, and don't hurt each other's harmony."
I don't know how many times the boring lines came out of Lin Baoqing's mouth. The next moment, he took out a very special storage magic weapon.
The shape of the magic weapon is a triangular suspended crystal block suspended in the palm of the hand, exuding a powerful aura.
Li Mu scanned it with all things recognition and immediately learned its properties. Unexpectedly, this magic weapon was still a sixth-level low-grade spiritual treasure. It could not be opened without special techniques.
Lin Baoqing flicked his fingertips, and a pair of metal swords exuding a strong aura leaped out.
The golden sword exudes a strong aura, and the three-foot-sized monster tiger weapon spirits on both ends, dragging the sword, are rampaging within the formation, and the sword aura is formidable.
"Good knife!"
A swordsman, True Lord Nascent Soul, saw these two swords, his eyes were burning.
The other Nascent Soul Lords were also very excited, and they all wished they could take this rare sword immediately.
With a wave of his hand, the two swords fell steadily in front of him. Two scaly tigers lay on his shoulders, looking into the hall with piercing eyes. "Dear guests, this sword is made by Zhongzhou's sixth-level weapon refining master, Master Kong Yuanming. The fifth-level pseudo-spiritual treasure that was created is called the Golden Tiger Soul-Eating Knife. It is so sharp that even a low-grade fifth-level spiritual weapon cannot withstand a blow from this knife."
"The bidding price for this knife is seven thousand high-grade spiritual stones, and each increase in price will not be less than one hundred high-grade spiritual stones..."
As soon as Lin Baoqing finished speaking, the crowd at the scene could not wait.
"The Golden Tiger Soul-Killing Sword matches my martial arts. If I get this sword, I won't be afraid even if I encounter the peak of Nascent Soul. I will give you eight thousand high-grade spiritual stones."
"The first item to be auctioned is a fake spiritual treasure. It's really a worthwhile trip."
"Fellow Taoists, this sword is destined for me. I can use this sword to break through to a higher realm. I hope you will be merciful and don't argue with me. I will give you 8,400 high-grade spiritual stones."
"Those who have the strength can get it. Who cares? I will give you nine thousand high-grade spiritual stones."
"Bah, you are so shameless, don't take your identity seriously, this is Wanbao Pavilion to put away your tricks!"
…………
In the auditorium, many Nascent Soul True Monarchs had blazing eyes and were at war with each other. For a fake spiritual treasure, everyone wanted to step forward and snatch it away.
Unfortunately, the background strength of Wanbao Pavilion is extremely strong, and there are three terrifying existences in the Void Refining Realm above them. They have the heart, but don't have the courage, so they can only compete honestly for financial resources.
All the Nascent Soul cultivators took out the auction order and entered the bidding price.
The bidding below is hot.
In the wing room, Li Mu couldn't help but sigh, Zhongzhou Continent is indeed full of talents, and the Golden Tiger Soul-Eating Knife on the stage is quite superb in terms of grade and production techniques.
Li Mu, who possesses the eighth-level heavenly fire tempering method, saw that most of the fake spiritual treasures were made of sixth-level materials. It was supposed to be a sixth-level spiritual treasure. However, the refining failed and turned into a fifth-level fake spiritual treasure. Unfortunately, Got it!
Time flies and the bidding time has ended!
This magic weapon was actually photographed by a second-rate sect's great elder, costing him 27,000 high-grade spiritual stones.
"The bidding for the first item is over. Congratulations to fellow Taoist No. 29 for winning it at the price of 27,000 high-grade spiritual stones. The next auction item also comes from the five-year-old Liu Yueming refined by Liu Yueming, one of the eight major families in Zhongzhou Continent. Jie Xuantian Beast Transformation Pill."
"This elixir is highly effective. It is made from the essence of hundreds of fourth-level spiritual beasts and their physical essences, combined with the Nine Mysterious Grasses and the Beast Origin Spirit Fruit, to refine the elixir that can promote the advancement of spiritual beasts."
"The medicinal effect is so strong that it can help the spiritual beasts that are about to break through to gain a higher chance of breaking through and advance to a higher realm."
"There are twenty Xuantian Beast Transformation Pills in total. Each one costs 700 high-grade spiritual stones. The price of each auction is no less than 100 high-grade spiritual stones." Lin Baoqing smiled broadly and looked around the audience, including hundreds of distinguished guests and a group of distinguished guests. Hundreds of VIP rooms.
After saying that, Lin Baoqing took out a crystal bottle from the storage magic weapon in front of everyone.
The mouth of the bottle was unscrewed, and a burst of spiritual energy came out. Twenty dark red elixirs slowly flew out, and a strange aroma filled the entire lobby.
Some beast masters in the lobby brought small spiritual beasts with them. When they smelled the fragrance of the Xuantian Beast Transformation Pill, they suddenly became particularly excited and restless.
For a moment, the roars of various spiritual beasts rang out in the lobby. The beastmasters hurriedly comforted each other, looking at the twenty Xuantian Beast Transformation Pills floating in the air with burning eyes.
In the side room, Li Mu's eyes were also shining. Although he inherited the Painting Realm Treasure Mansion and received a large number of elixirs from Lord Tianyan, it was a pity that there was no elixir that could advance the spiritual beasts.
Xiao Jin and Xiao Wa are now at the peak of the fourth level. To step into the fifth level, they only need one last step. However, Xiao Jin and Xiao Wa have ancient bloodline, and it is several times more difficult to advance than the spiritual beasts of the same level.
It is extremely difficult to advance by ordinary means. This Xuantian Beast Transformation Pill is undoubtedly very suitable. If Xiaojin and Xiaowa take it, the possibility of advancement will be greatly improved, and they are expected to break through to reach the fifth level spiritual beast.
While Li Mu was distracted, many monks had already participated in the bidding, vying for the chance to advance to the next level for their spirit beasts.
Li Mu checked the bidding price. Only ten breaths had passed since the bidding started, and the price of a Xuantian Beast Transformation Pill had climbed to 2,100 high-grade spiritual stones, and the price was still rising crazily.
Most of the people bidding this time were Nascent Soul Lord, who was good at controlling spirit beasts, and the divine beings in the VIP room, and the bidding prices were particularly crazy.
Soon, after a period of interest, the floating price of the auction has gradually decreased.
Now there are only a few well-known Nascent Soul Lords still bidding, and as for the VIP rooms among the tokens, only three are still bidding.
Li Mu was still waiting and did not take action.
"Fellow Daoist No. 6's bidding price: 3,200 high-grade spiritual stones, remaining time: eight breaths, is there anyone else who wants to bid?"
Lin Baoqing smiled broadly and reminded him. From his appearance, it was easy to see that he was particularly satisfied with the price paid for a Xuantian Beast Transformation Pill.
The first one can be quoted at such a high price, and the prices of the remaining nineteen will not be low either. The profit earned from this order is extremely generous.
Even as Lin Baoqing finished speaking, there was still someone who did not bid. After all, the price of a Xuantian Beast Transformation Pill was only three thousand.
Now that the price has long been exceeded, there are still nineteen more to come, and there are still plenty of opportunities, so no one continues to bid.
When there were only three breaths left in the nine-breath time, Li Mu finally took action and directly entered 3,500 high-grade spiritual stones on the bidding token.
The price suddenly changed and everyone was caught off guard.
"Who is so stupid? These 3,500 high-grade spiritual stones are far beyond the price of this elixir. There are still a lot more behind. You are really stupid."
"Hey, be careful what you say. Didn't you see that this is the private room of VIP Room No. 7? Those who can go there are all big shots. Be careful if you chew your tongue, you will be chopped off when you go out."
People around saw the price of promotion. The number seven displayed on it was a golden rune, which represented the noble wing.
Those who can be in the wing are the ones they can't afford to offend.
Everyone shut up obediently, but they secretly laughed at Li Mu for being a fool. The first pill sold at a loss, and he was most likely a disciple from a certain family.
Since there are still pills in the back, no one is willing to spend a lot of money on the first one.
So they all chose to stop, and Li Mu also successfully bid for the first Xuantian Beast Transformation Pill.
Lin Baoqing, who was on the stage, glanced at Li Mu's wing and couldn't help but smile knowingly, "Congratulations to Wing No. 7, for successfully bidding for the first Xuantian Beast Transformation Pill with 3,500 high-grade spiritual stones. I will bid for the second one later. The price is still the same, and each increase will be no less than one hundred high-grade spiritual stones."
The bidding started again. One piece has been lost, but there are more remaining ones. The bidders are not impatient, and the price has steadily increased.
But when they were once again close to three thousand high-grade spiritual stones, Li Mu took action again, with a price of three thousand three hundred spiritual stones, which made the bidders frown.
They all chose to give up, feeling that it was not worth it to continue bidding.
This time, the pill naturally fell into Li Mu's hands again. Lin Baoqing followed the same pattern with a smile on his face, and started bidding again for the third pill.
This time, Li Mu still did it secretly, always appearing at a price that was hundreds of dollars higher than the original price in the last few seconds.
The people who originally wanted to pick up the missing pills were a little frustrated by Li Mu, but thinking that there were so many more, they did not believe that Li Mu had to bid at a loss for each elixir.
No fool in this world would do this.
So they also gave up on the third one, but for the fourth, fifth, and sixth coins, Li Mu still used the same trick to successfully bid for it.
Seeing Li Mu overcoming obstacles and winning six pieces at an exceeding price, the people around him realized something was wrong.
There are only fourteen left now, and each one is extremely precious. You must know that spiritual beast advancement is unlikely to succeed at one time with just one. One more will provide an extra layer of protection and an extra layer of opportunities.
Now they couldn't sit still, they bid wildly and increased their bids to participate in the auction, fearing that the opportunity would slip away from them.
"That No. 7 wing! Damn it, the price of this seventh one is already over 4,000."
"It's over, it's over. I can't bear the price of this seventh one. It's already 4,500 yuan. How can I buy it? Why do I need so many Xuantian Beast Transformation Pills in the seventh wing! I've already bought so many, isn't it enough?" (This chapter over)
