【Chapter 248】Auction
【Chapter 248】Auction
Everyone subconsciously looked at the woman on the round platform. Her blue dress was shining brightly under the illumination of the luminous stone, making people squint their eyes involuntarily.
Looking up, it is clear that the woman is not wearing a veil. But her face was foggy and could not be seen clearly. This happens because everyone's cultivation is not enough.
After achieving the purpose of deterrence, the woman put away her coercion: "No one is allowed to fight in the underground trading city. Those who violate the rules will be killed immediately."
The woman's voice carried a solemn tone and was heard by everyone in the trading building.
Everyone held their breath, not daring to breathe.
A hint of regret flashed across Nangong Chenyu's eyes. Yan Feiyu must have heard what the woman said, and he thought that the other party would give up the admission token in his hand.
I just don't know why the notebook in my sea of consciousness is not moving?
Logically speaking, when he met Yan Feiyu in the Treasure Pavilion, new plots should have appeared in the notebook in his sea of consciousness.
Unable to figure out the reason, he put the thought aside and stopped worrying about it.
However.
Yan Feiyu, who traveled from the end of the world, had long realized that he might have the aura of the protagonist described in the novel. Because as long as it is something he really wants, he will get it in the end.
Therefore, Yan Feiyu did not give up on seizing the admission token as Nangong Chenyu expected.
The Yuntian Holy Land is mysterious and unpredictable. Yan Feiyu has a hunch that if he goes to the Yuntian Holy Land, he will have unexpected gains.
Some opportunities are fleeting.
After coming to the world of cultivation, Yan Feiyu relied on his intuition to seize many opportunities. That's why his cultivation was able to improve so quickly.
After the woman standing on the round stage disappeared, everyone in the auction hall breathed a sigh of relief.
In the past, before the auction started, strong men from the Yuntian Holy Land would give warnings, but they never showed up. Everyone only knows that the person who gave the warning is very powerful, but they are not sure how powerful he is.
This is the first time that someone has appeared in public to issue a warning like today.
The higher the level of cultivation, the more clearly one can feel the unfathomable strength of the woman.
Those who had evil thoughts in the past were secretly glad that they had never dared to take action because they were not sure.
Without keeping everyone waiting for long, a middle-aged male cultivator in the Mahayana stage who looked a bit fat soon flew down onto the round platform.
He exuded a peaceful aura, and it was obvious that he was the auctioneer presiding over this auction.
"We welcome all Taoist friends to gather at the underground trading venue to participate in today's auction."
While he was speaking, a small square table rose up in the middle of the round table. A white light flashed, and a palm-sized black box appeared on the square table.
"Without further ado, let's take a look at the first item." The middle-aged male cultivator said as he used his spiritual energy to open the black box.
As soon as the box was opened, a red object flew out.
Everyone's attention was immediately attracted.
A fiery red bead was seen floating above the box, and someone immediately recognized what it was.
"It's actually the Zhuchen Pearl."
Zhuochen beads, also known as Phoenix Gallbladder, are a rare natural jade bead. It is the size of a chicken egg, and its entire body is as bright red as fire. It contains the magical power of being immune to all poisons, replenishing yang and removing yin.
In addition, people with pure yin bodies can conceal their physical conditions by wearing magic weapons made from the Zhuchen Pearl.
"Yes, it is the Zhuchen Pearl."
Seeing that many people were looking at Zhuochenzhu with passionate eyes, the middle-aged male cultivator showed a satisfied smile.
"I think everyone knows the function of the Zhuchen Pearl, so I won't waste time introducing it. The starting price of the Zhuchen Pearl is 10,000 high-quality spirit stones. Let's start the bidding."
Those who wanted the Zhuchen Pearl immediately bid.
"I'll offer 11,000 high-quality spirit stones."
"Twelve thousand high-quality spirit stones."
"Twenty thousand high-quality spirit stones."
"Twenty-five thousand high-quality spirit stones"
“…”
The bidding sounds continued, and in less than a minute, the price rose to 100,000 high-quality spirit stones.
In order not to affect others, Ye Yishen sent a message to Nangong Chenyu: [Should we bid? 】
As soon as he heard the starting price, Nangong Chenyu knew that they would not be able to bid for many things with their wealth: [The Zhuochen Pearl is of little use to us. There should be better things later. 】
[The main reason is that there are strong men from the Yuntian Holy Land here, so we don’t have to worry about not being able to take the valuables out of the underground trading city. 】
Nodding slightly, Ye Yisheng asked again in a voice transmission: [A Yu, can you tell what the cultivation level of the last senior standing on the round platform was? I felt like she glanced at us on purpose when she left. 】
He was worried that the woman had already seen through Nangong Chenyu's true form and would do something bad to Nangong Chenyu.
[I didn’t see the senior’s cultivation level, but I think he is at least a first-level immortal. Nangong Chenyu held Ye Yisheng’s hand and squeezed it: [Don’t worry, I don’t sense any malice from her. 】
In Nangong Chenyu's previous life, there was no such thing as immortals in the Xuanwu Realm. The cultivators who successfully survived the thunder tribulation of ascension all ascended normally, while the cultivators who failed to survive the thunder tribulation of ascension all died under the thunder tribulation.
Regarding the scattered immortals, he saw the relevant records in the Xuan Ji Sect's library.
There are twelve-tribulation immortals, among which the strength of two-tribulation immortals is equivalent to that of Xuanxian in the fairy world. In addition, after becoming a wandering immortal, one must wait until the twelve tribulations are completed before getting another chance to ascend.
Nangong Chenyu continued in a voice transmission: [And I suspect that Daoist Master Haoyan is also from Yuntian Holy Land. Only this can explain why my elder brother and elder brother Jun joined the Yuntian Holy Land when they first arrived in Zhongxuan Continent. 】
Hearing this, Ye Yisheng's eyes lit up: [Hearing you say that, I suddenly remembered something. 】
【What's up? 】
[Do you still remember the day when we first met Taoist Hao Yan? My eldest brother said that Taoist Hao Yan's cultivation was at the top of this world. At that time, we didn't know that there were immortals in this world of cultivation, so we had a preconceived notion that Taoist Haoyan's cultivation had reached the peak of tribulation. 】
Guessing what Ye Yisheng was going to ask next, Nangong Chenyu said first: [Out of respect, I have never checked Daoist Lord Haoyan’s cultivation. 】
Ye Yisheng: [……] The words I wanted to ask were stuck in my throat.
While the two were talking, the Zhuchen Pearl had already been bought for 530,000 high-quality spirit stones.
"Now let's see what the second lot is."
Hearing this, Nangong Chenyu and Ye Yisheng stopped communicating and focused their attention on the auction table.
As the middle-aged man lifted the black cloth on the square table, an exquisite small tea can came into everyone's sight.
"Tea can."
“I wonder what kind of tea is in it?”
"This is a can of enlightenment tea." The middle-aged man didn't keep the secret and said directly: "It can be brewed three times, and each time you can make two cups."
When they heard it was Wudao Tea, someone immediately couldn't sit still and asked: "What's the starting price?"
The middle-aged man raised his hand and pressed it down, signaling everyone to be quiet. Then he said, "The starting price of the Enlightenment Tea is 50,000 high-grade spirit stones. Now let's start the bidding."
"Sixty thousand high-grade spirit stones."
"One hundred and twenty thousand."
"130,000."
"Two hundred thousand."
“…”
Hearing the soaring prices and the number of people bidding, Ye Yishen couldn't help but complain to Nangong Chenyu: [Everyone seems to be very rich! 】
He was so scared that he didn't dare to bid.
[Want enlightenment tea?] 】Nangong Chenyu asked.
Ye Yisheng nodded: [I want it. 】
He shook his head again: [It’s too expensive, not worth it. 】
Nangong Chenyu directly bid: "One million."
He immediately raised the price by three hundred thousand.
The entire auction hall was silent for three seconds before someone followed up: "One million and one hundred thousand."
The bidding sound brought Ye Yishen back to his senses. He turned to look at Nangong Chenyu and asked: [Do you also want to drink the enlightenment tea? 】
After hesitating for a second, Nangong Chenyu told the truth: [Enlightenment tea is useless to me. 】
He had drunk the enlightenment tea in his previous life, but after drinking it, he didn't realize anything. But if Ye Yisheng wants to drink it, he can spend some spirit stones to buy it.
Ye Yishen quickly reached out and grabbed Nangong Chenyu who was about to bid: [Don’t bid, it’s not worth it. Save the spirit stones to buy things that can directly improve your cultivation. 】
He was just curious about the enlightenment tea, and it didn't matter whether he drank it or not. If it only cost 100,000 or 200,000 high-quality spirit stones, he thought he could buy it and give it a try. But there is no need for millions of high-quality spirit stones.
Besides, drinking the enlightenment tea does not necessarily lead to enlightenment. He doesn't want so many spirit stones to go to waste!
[Okay, I’ll listen to you.] 】
Nangong Chenyu did not bid again. There should be an enlightenment tree in the Yuntian Holy Land, and they would definitely have the opportunity to drink enlightenment tea for free.
Many people present had the same idea as Ye Yishen. Therefore, after Nangong Chenyu called the price, only a few people were still bidding.
Finally, the Enlightenment Tea was bought by someone in a private room on the second floor, and the transaction price was 1.5 million high-quality spirit stones.
"Now let's take a look at the third lot."
As the middle-aged male cultivator finished speaking, a jade box was opened by him. A purple flower emitting purple light flew out of the jade box and hovered above the jade box.
"Wow! What a beautiful flower!" A female cultivator couldn't help but exclaim. She obviously didn't recognize what the purple flower was.
Everyone started to speculate.
"It's a bit like Purple Heart Orchid."
"It looks more like a purple spirit flower to me."
"I think it looks like Dream Purple."
"You all guessed wrong. This is a Heavenly Soul Flower. I was lucky enough to get one before, but it was not as old as this one."
As soon as these words were spoken, the people who had originally been indifferent became excited and stared at the Tianhun Flower on the auction table with fiery eyes.
"My fellow Taoist has good eyesight." The middle-aged male cultivator seized the opportunity and spoke: "This is a three thousand year old Heavenly Soul Flower. Ghost cultivators and demon cultivators can take it to improve their soul power, and cultivators can take it to help improve their spiritual awareness."
"The starting price for the Heavenly Soul Flower is 100,000 high-quality spirit stones. The bidding will begin now."
Nangong Chenyu was the first to bid: "One million."
The entire auction hall fell silent again.
Familiar voice!
A familiar million!
Those who were about to bid: "..." Could this kid be here to cause trouble?
Everyone cast their eyes towards Nangong Chenyu, and for a moment no one followed suit and started bidding.
Even though he was being stared at by everyone in the auction hall, Nangong Chenyu remained calm: "Senior, no one is bidding against me, is it time to make the final decision?"
