Chapter 31
Ning Shu suppressed the shock in his heart and said after a while, "Is he... so impatient?"
As soon as the spiritual essence came into his hands, he swallowed it directly. If the spiritual essence had a shell, she felt that this cultivator might not have the patience to peel it slowly, and would choose to eat it raw.
The melon-eating system said as a matter of course, "He has been waiting for the Spirit Essence for many years. Today he finally got what he wanted, so naturally he doesn't want to wait even a second longer.
Spirit Essence, a natural treasure, is different from pills like the Longevity Pill. As for the longevity pills, there are usage restrictions. If you take more than three pills, they will be useless no matter how many you take.
But the spiritual essence will not. It has no restrictions. This also means that there will be many monks who want the spiritual essence.
In order to avoid any further complications, he chose to take the medicine on the spot. There was nothing wrong with this approach itself. 】
The problem is this spiritual essence.
Even though it has been stripped of its patina, it still has a bit of flavor. A bit of a cesspool smell.
Not strong, just a little bit light.
But that doesn't mean the taste is gone.
After this cultivator took the spiritual essence, his spiritual power was purified a lot and his cultivation took a big step forward.
After feeling the benefits brought by the spiritual essence, he laughed heartily, but as he was laughing, he stopped with a puzzled look on his face.
"What's that smell?"
"Why is it a bit like..."
At this moment, the auctioneer interrupted his soliloquy at the right moment.
"Fellow Daoist, please return to your seat. We will soon start bidding on the next item."
The monk placed his hand in front of his mouth, then opened his mouth and waved it gently.
The next second, he smelled something and his face turned from blue to white, and then from white to blue.
He made a nauseous expression, "You pieces of spiritual essence..."
Before the monk could finish his words, the auctioneer interrupted him expressionlessly.
"My fellow Daoist, our auction house can guarantee that every item sold in the building is authentic."
“We support all forms of testing.”
"If you have no further questions, please return to your seat."
By the end, the auctioneer's tone had taken on a hint of threat. The owner of the auction house is of considerable status, so even if this cultivator can easily come up with one million high-quality spirit stones, the auction house is not afraid at all.
The monk also knew that it would be of no benefit for him to go to the auction house, so he could only return to his seat slowly with a puzzled mood.
What does it smell like?
never mind.
Although the taste was a bit strange, it was indeed the genuine spiritual essence of a hundred years old, and his cultivation level had truly improved.
If that's the case, don't worry too much about other things.
-
Even from such a long distance, Ning Shu seemed to smell that scent. I can only say that the essence of the hundred-year-old spirit is not something that ordinary people can swallow.
She said to the melon-eating system, "I feel a little sorry for this ruthless man." She spent one million high-quality spirit stones to buy a piece of spirit essence that brought back... a taste. He may not feel anything at first, but the aftereffect may be a bit strong.
The melon-eating system said indifferently, [How could that be, host? He does need spiritual essence, right? After taking the spiritual essence, his cultivation level did improve, right? He'd waited so long, and finally he got what he wanted, right? What does that mean? 】
Ning Xu, who had long understood the nature of the melon-eating system, said in agreement, "It means that his one million high-quality spirit stones were well worth it."
[That’s right.] 】
[This Lingshi is totally worth it! 】
When it comes to fallacies, the melon-eating system has its own set.
However, this statement is not purely fallacious.
It does make some sense.
Ning Xu was relieved because of this. Good value for money.
After the first item was sold, the auction house quickly sent Ning Xu 850,000 high-quality spirit stones.
Another 150,000 high-quality spirit stones went into the pocket of the auction house.
Ning Xu couldn't help but say to the melon-eating system, "They took too much." The service fee charged by the auction house was as high as 15%! Is this any different from robbing money? !
That’s a full 150,000 top-grade spirit stones!
The melon-eating system echoed, [Isn’t it? So it is really profitable to open an auction house! 】
Ning Xu agreed and said, "Opening an auction house can indeed be put on the agenda."
【good! Someone is planning to sell her own auction house recently. If we have the chance, we can go and get in touch with her. 】
"OK."
While everyone was chatting, the second collection was presented.
This collection is a map with a missing piece.
The auctioneer smiled and said, "This map is the legendary one. It may be a copy of the treasure map of the Sake Immortal Cave Mansion."
As soon as the three words "Sake Immortal" were heard, the atmosphere at the scene suddenly became heated.
Sake fairy! He was the most powerful person with the highest cultivation level five hundred years ago! It’s a pity that it seemed like overnight, the sake fairy disappeared without a trace.
Some say he succeeded in ascending, others say he fell.
However, no matter whether he ascended to heaven or died, there are definitely many treasures in the cave he left behind.
If we can find his cave and obtain the treasures he left behind, our path to cultivation will surely be much smoother.
Seeing that the atmosphere on the scene was almost aroused, the auctioneer said calmly, "This map starts at one thousand low-grade spirit stones."
After these words were spoken, the monks present began to bid.
When Ning Shu picked up a piece of fruit to eat, the head of the Miscellaneous Affairs Hall was chatting with the heads of the North and South Peaks.
She asked, “Should we shoot it?”
The head of the North and South Peaks considered and said, "Let's not talk about the authenticity of this map. Just the fact that this map is still incomplete... It may not be of much use if we take a picture of it."
The head of the Miscellaneous Affairs Hall shook his head slightly and said, "But if we take a picture, we still have a chance of finding his cave. If we don't take a picture, we won't have any clues at all."
Obviously, the head of the Miscellaneous Affairs Hall was tempted. "What's more, the price of this item is not expensive at the moment. The sect can definitely afford it."
It doesn't matter even if it's fake.
Anyway, it is impossible for this item to be sold at a high price.
Many monks share the same idea as them. If you have a few thousand low-grade spirit stones, you can just bid for fun. It doesn’t matter if they go to waste.
But if the price is higher, there is no point in buying it.
Hearing this, the melon-eating system couldn't help but click its tongue twice.
[Sure enough, once it is related to immortals or other powerful beings, even a piece of torn paper can be auctioned off. 】
[This thing looks fake at first glance.] 】
[Why are there still so many monks being deceived?] 】
After hearing the voice of the melon-eating system, Ning Xu replied slowly, "Of course it's because there are many cultivators who dream of getting rich overnight." If they could find the cave of the Sake Immortal, wouldn't they become rich overnight?
The head of the Miscellaneous Affairs Hall: ...
She seems to be one of these monks...
Hearing what Ning Xu said, the melon-eating system couldn't help but burst out laughing.
[They know that the sake fairy is powerful, but don’t they know that he is a poor guy? 】
[Cave?] Where did he get the cave? 】
[He was so poor that he couldn't even afford a decent cassock, so he treasured it. 】
[Don’t even think about it. It’s nothing.] 】
Ning Xu, "!!!"
"No, isn't he a powerful person? How could he be so poor?" This is completely different from the powerful person she imagined.
The melon-eating system casually said, [Because he is in love. No matter how many treasures he has, he can't keep them. 】
[Because he gave them all to his sweetheart.] 】
Ning Shu, "...It's actually still possible."
The head of the Miscellaneous Affairs Hall and the heads of the North and South Peaks both had complicated expressions.
Who could have thought that the famous super genius five hundred years ago, the Sake Immortal, would actually be a poor bastard? Not only was he a poor bastard, he was also a love-brained bastard.
Ning Xu gossiped, "According to what you said before, no one has succeeded in ascending in the past thousand years."
"So he fell?"
The melon-eating system said casually, [No, he is still alive. And today, he himself is here. 】
Ning Xu, master of the Miscellaneous Affairs Hall, master of the North and South Peaks:? ? ?
The melon-eating system said slowly, [This treasure map was drawn by him himself. 】
Ning Xu was in mixed feelings.
How poor must one be to sell one's own information?
Moreover, it was only to earn a few thousand low-grade spirit stones.
It seems that the sake fairy really lives up to the title of poor guy.
"Then why do you say this treasure map is fake?"
[According to the treasure map, we can indeed find the place where he used to live. 】
【It's just that it's empty there, there's nothing. 】
Ning Xu was silent.
Fortunately, the melon-eating system quickly said, "Although there is no need to take a picture of the treasure map, he also took out another collection today. 】
Ning Xu asked casually, "What collection?"
[An eighth-grade medicinal pill—the Soul-Restoring Pill.] 】
[As long as there is still a breath left, this pill can bring this person back to life. 】
Ning Xu, "!!!"
At this point, even the usually sharp-tongued and hot-tempered melon-eating system became more serious in its tone, "You must get this pill. 】
[When traveling in the world of cultivation, even with my assistance, there will be many times when you are in danger of death. What's more, the secret realm of Tianya is about to open. 】
[Although this is a secret realm exclusive to the Qi Refining Stage and there has not been much danger in the past, this year... the situation may be different. 】
[If you have this pill, it is equivalent to having an extra life. 】
Ning Xu certainly understood this principle.
Who doesn’t want an eighth-grade soul-restoring pill?
Of course she wanted it too.
However, everyone is attracted by good things.
Her assets are totally insignificant.
Such pills would probably be sold at a sky-high price.
The melon-eating system said, "I suggest you make a private deal with him. Once the eighth-grade Soul-Restoring Pill is put on the auction block, your 850,000 high-grade spirit stones will have no competitiveness at all." 】
Ning Xu, "Can private transactions be competitive?"
How come there isn’t any? You can sell him information. I know a lot of things he wants to know. He will need it. 】
[The tenth item is the eighth-grade soul-restoring pill. You can contact him through the auction house now. 】
There is no auction brochure in the auction house.
Every auction item is kept confidential before it goes on auction.
This also means that the order of auction items can be changed or taken off the shelves. Just negotiate it privately with the seller.
Ning Shu glanced calmly at the two Wenxin Sect leaders in the box and asked, "What excuse should I use?"
If she wanted to contact the seller privately through the auction house, she couldn't skip the masters of the North and South Peaks.
The melon-eating system, [tell the truth. Just say you know that one of the items for auction is an eighth-grade elixir and you want it. He won't ask too many questions. He still has some magnanimity and character. 】
Ning Xu, "What about the head of the Miscellaneous Affairs Hall?"
[Although she has her own little thoughts, she is generally not a bad person and is loyal to the sect. After all, you are a member of the Wenxin Sect, she won't do anything to you. 】
"good!"
As time is running out,
Xu chose to tell the whole matter to the masters of the North and South Peaks.
After hearing the news, the masters of the North and South Peaks and the master of the Miscellaneous Affairs Hall both pretended to be surprised.
The head of the North and South Peaks widened his eyes, "Today's auction actually has such treasures!"
The head of the Miscellaneous Affairs Hall stood up and said, "We must not miss this opportunity. Let's contact that person now."
The head of the North and South Peaks looked at Ning Shu and said, "I'll go with you."
Ning Xu didn't think much about it and said directly, "Okay, then thank you, Peak Master."
The masters of the North and South Peaks nodded, holding tightly in their hands the divine object provided by the head master, and left the box with Ning Shu.
Fortunately, after the welcoming banquet at Wangeng Peak, the head master and others improved this magical item, reducing the range of isolating voices from two meters to a radius of half a meter, and the range can be adjusted at any time between half a meter and two meters. Otherwise, today would be troublesome.
