People whose luck has been stolen will never be successful in anything they do. They will always have to encounter a series of unfortunate events before they can accomplish anything. It is such a vicious cycle, and all their energy is consumed by such unfortunate and tragic trivialities. How can they have time to improve themselves?
Obviously, this is what Su Chixin is like.
Thinking about her own experiences in her previous life, Xue Qingyi couldn't help but empathize with her.
Su Chi Xin is obviously a talented alchemist with great talent, but because her luck was stolen, she has many difficulties even selling pills in the town. She doesn't know which opportunistic evil villain her luck has helped to bring about.
Xue Qingyi herself, who had a wealth of top-notch talent, was framed and ended up using it all as a tool for others.
Both of them were innocent victims in this world of cultivation where the strong prey on the weak, and both paid a heavy price for the greed of others.
This also made Xue Qingyi more determined.
Although one should keep a low profile when out and mind one's own business, she was determined to meddle in Su Chixin's business!
Fortunately, she had left the talisman on Su Chi Xin's body, and this matter still needed long-term consideration, so there was no need to rush.
After returning to Yingyue Sect, Xue Qingyi immersed herself in the remaining fragments of the alchemy book and continued her cultivation.
Three days later.
She came out of the fragments and went to the auction to be held in Sunset Town tonight.
The auction is held by the largest trading house in the world of cultivation, Wanbaolou. It is held in various places every three months, and every time a large number of cultivators attend.
Now that I have established my own sect, running the sect's many affairs in the future will require the consumption of a large amount of spirit stones.
The salary she received as the master's direct disciple in Liuyun Taoist Sect was only 300 medium-grade spirit stones per month, which was obviously not enough to cover these expenses.
It so happened that I had been training in the Demon Abyss and killed monsters before, and collected treasures from the monsters for refining weapons and making elixirs. I might as well sell them at an auction and exchange them for spirit stones!
She can also go and see if there are any rare treasures worth her spending.
Xue Qingyi quickly arrived at the auction venue.
After handing over a low-grade spirit stone and getting an auction token, he entered the venue.
She first went to find the owner of the auction.
"Miss, are you going to sell something?" When the shopkeeper saw Xue Qingyi with her face covered with a veil and covered with magical weapons, but without a trace of cultivation, she was clearly an ordinary mortal, but there was an inexplicable strong aura of oppression, which was quite mysterious, so he did not dare to neglect her at all.
"Two mid-grade talismans." Xue Qingyi said in a light tone, and with a flick of her sleeves, two red-lettered talismans floated in front of her eyes.
She also introduced, "One is a treasure-hunting talisman. Holding this talisman in your hand does not require spiritual power to activate it, you can use only your thoughts to drive it, and you can search for treasures nearby.
"The other one is a flying talisman. If you stick this talisman on your leg, you can fly on the wind without a sword, and your speed is extremely fast, no less than a flying magic weapon.
“Moreover, these two talismans cannot be destroyed and can be used forever. They are comparable to magic weapons.
"These two talismans need to be sold at the auction. In addition, I have many treasures obtained from the monsters in the Demon Abyss. Shopkeeper, please take a look at their value and sell them all today."
As she spoke, Xue Qingyi flicked her sleeves again.
A bunch of monster horns, furs, bones and other things flew out of her storage bag and fell on the long table in front of her like hail, forming a small hill in an instant.
There are even the spirits of two mid-level monsters in there!
This is worth the big money!
If it were to be put up for auction, it would definitely be snatched up by cultivators below the Nascent Soul stage!
The shopkeeper's eyes were filled with tears!
He rubbed his hands quickly, carefully checked the various treasures on the monsters, and quickly gave a rough price: "These are worth a total of 13,000 medium-grade spirit stones!
"But I need to try these two talismans first." The shopkeeper said immediately.
"Yes." Xue Qingyi said, handing over two talismans.
The shopkeeper first took the treasure-hunting talisman in his hand and, as she said, used his mind to summon it.
Suddenly, a scorching light emanated from the talisman and directly locked onto a brocade box with dark patterns placed on the counter behind the shopkeeper.
"This?" He was puzzled. "Why do you only lock on to one brocade box? I have many magic weapons here."
"This shows that among all the magic weapons on the shopkeeper's counter, only this one is of the highest grade." Xue Qingyi said with a smile, curling the corners of her lips.
"So that's how it is!" The shopkeeper was immediately convinced.
What was placed in that brocade box was the most valuable treasure of their trading company!
He put the treasure-hunting talisman away, and then stuck a flying talisman on his leg. Just as he was about to ask Xue Qingyi how to use it, the next moment, his entire fat and heavy body flew up on the spot, and with a "whoosh", he disappeared without a trace!
Xue Qingyi then remembered that she had forgotten to tell him how to control the direction and speed, and quickly took out another tracking talisman.
Not long after, the shopkeeper came back with the tracking charm, his hair messed up.
"Miss, these two talismans are really powerful!" The shopkeeper gasped, wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, and felt that his eyes had been opened.
He just flew to the seaside!
It's back again all of a sudden!
"As long as the shopkeeper is satisfied." Xue Qingyi responded calmly.
"Miss, let's look at this. The starting price for this treasure-hunting talisman is one hundred mid-grade spirit stones, and the starting price for this flying talisman is ten mid-grade spirit stones. Our trading house will charge a commission of 30%, oh no, 20%. How about that?" The shopkeeper said quickly.
I have already witnessed the power of the two talismans. The key point is that this talisman is different from other talismans in the world of cultivation. It is actually indestructible. It can be seen that this young girl whose cultivation level cannot be seen must have an extraordinary origin.
Maybe he is a Nascent Soul master who has hidden his cultivation level. Who knows.
Thinking of this, the smile on the shopkeeper's face became even more sincere, warm and cautious.
"Yes." Xue Qingyi glanced at him and quickly agreed.
The shopkeeper first calculated the cost of the 13,000 medium-grade spirit stones.
Afterwards, she went to the venue and took her seat.
The auction held every three months attracted a lot of people. Perhaps to avoid being targeted, almost all the monks concealed their true appearance and aura.
Seeing this, Xue Qingyi also used an invisibility talisman on herself.
In this way, as long as she doesn't speak, people around her won't be able to feel her presence.
Soon, the auction began.
The auction was presided over by the same shopkeeper, who said his surname was Wang and his name was Wang Daochun. The first item to be auctioned was an attacking magic weapon, but it had certain requirements for spiritual roots. Only cultivators with fire spiritual roots could use it. The starting price was ten medium-grade spirit stones.
When Xue Qingyi saw this magic weapon, she remembered that in her previous life, when she attended an auction, if she came across this kind of fire magic weapon, she would definitely pay for one for Ji Jian out of her own pocket.
But now, she naturally would not do such a stupid thing again.
The previous lots were not interesting and the selling prices were not high.
Later, Xue Qingyi saw her two talismans. After Shopkeeper Wang finished introducing them, she carefully listened to the discussions around her and finally found out that no one in the cultivation world knew about Danshu Fu nowadays. They all thought they were just something like spiritual talismans.
Because of its high practicality, the treasure-hunting talisman was eventually sold at a sky-high price of seven hundred medium-grade spirit stones.
The flying talisman was somewhat neglected and only fetched one hundred medium-grade spirit stones.
Xue Qingyi immediately received more than 600 mid-grade spirit stones, and she was very satisfied with it.
That’s not all.
Soon she saw that Shopkeeper Wang also put out the two monster spirits she had just sold to him for auction, and both were sold for more than three thousand medium-grade spirit stones, which was much higher than the price she sold them to him.
However, Xue Qingyi did not feel uncomfortable about this, because she deliberately wanted to sell these two spirits to the other party in this way.
She set up her own sect, and it was impossible for her to maintain the operation of a sect only by relying on the spirit stones earned from hunting monsters or making talismans.
From now on, whether Yingyue Sect wants to do business in talismans, pills, or refining equipment, it must go through the trading house.
Therefore, the spirits of these two mid-level monsters can be regarded as a stepping stone for her to show goodwill.
At least when Shopkeeper Wang sees her in the future, he will definitely be willing to do business with her.
What's more, the Wanbao Tower has branches all over the world of cultivation, and the power behind it cannot be underestimated. If one can establish such a relationship, it will also be beneficial to oneself.
Waited for a while longer.
Finally, she waited for an item that interested her - a thousand-year-old ice dug out from a secret place in the deep sea in the Far North.
This is the most suitable sword-making material for her!
The starting price is one thousand medium-grade spirit stones!
It’s simply a sky-high price!
Even so, after the auction started, Xue Qingyi immediately made a bid without hesitation. However, she soon discovered that someone had been competing with her and the price was quickly raised to three thousand medium-grade spirit stones.
When she found out who was bidding against her, she couldn't help but frown deeply, and a hint of murderous intent flashed in her eyes!
