Chapter 140 Warning
Su Qingwu looked at the items on display at the auction table and instantly thought of the relevant records in the encyclopedia of spiritual plants.
The Thunder Flame Flower is purple all over and shaped like crystal glass. It is a third-level spiritual plant with thunder attributes and is very rare in the Moonlight Realm.
It blooms once every six hundred years, and there is only one flower on each plant.
After taking it, a monk with thunder spirit root can advance one level in practice.
If one could bid for this item and use it as a reward, it would be enough to mobilize a Jindan cultivator with a Thunder Spiritual Root to take action.
The starting price of this item is 600,000 spirit stones. Since there are very few cultivators with thunder spirit roots in Yuehua Realm, there are only a few people participating in the bidding.
And except for Su Qingwu, the other contestants are all at the Foundation Establishment stage.
Seeing that she raised the price several times, several people gave up the bidding one after another.
The reason was simple: he was a cultivator in the late Jindan stage, and no one present could afford to offend him.
These people do not have thunder spiritual roots. They compete with the price only because the power behind them wants to give the Thunder Flame Flower as a gift to Ling Yueyao who is about to hold the Jindan Ceremony. They want to establish a relationship with her and pave the way for things that may happen in the future.
Now that they were faced with a late-stage Jindan competition, they weighed the pros and cons and gave up this plan without hesitation...
In the end, Su Qingwu used 800,000 spirit stones to buy the Thunder Flame Flower.
The next item to be auctioned, the 92nd one, was beyond everyone's expectations.
I saw six Qi Refining Stage attendants slowly carrying an ice coffin onto the auction table.
Inside the ice coffin, there lay a mermaid with a human body and a fish tail.
He has blue hair, fin-shaped ears, and sky blue eyebrows.
Because her eyes were closed, the color of her pupils could not be seen clearly. The only thing that could be confirmed was that the mermaid was still alive.
Su Qingwu speculated that there should be certain differences compared to the human race.
The moment the mermaid was seen, the entire auction venue was in an uproar.
Before the monk presiding over the auction even started to introduce the items, someone started to criticize him.
"Mermaids are ferocious and have always eaten humans. They cannot be tamed or made to recognize their masters. Why would you want to auction such a thing?"
"Yes! Mermaid bones are too soft to be used as a material for refining tools. They are basically useless!"
As soon as the words fell, the monk who maintained order spoke:
"My fellow Taoists, this mermaid is different from others. Its blood is very special and has the effect of accelerating the healing of wounds. Otherwise, it would not be put up for auction."
Having said this, the man signaled with his eyes to a servant beside him.
The latter immediately took out a dagger and slashed his wrist.
Blood gushed out immediately. At this time, the monk who was presiding over the auction walked to the ice coffin, pierced the mermaid's fingertip, forced out a drop of blood, and quickly fed it to the servant.
His wrist injury was seen recovering at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Su Qingwu looked at this scene and raised his eyebrows slightly.
Ever since Xuan Qing became her natal spiritual plant, her own blood has also been able to speed up the healing of wounds, and the effect is better than that of the mermaid.
At this moment in the auction, the gazes of the cultivators looking at the ice coffin became much more passionate, as if they were looking at some rare treasure.
Mermaid auction, starting price is 700,000 spirit stones.
The bidding sounded one after another, and in just a moment, it soared to one million spirit stones.
The special blood that can speed up wound healing has a fatal attraction to these people.
One can imagine what would happen if a human with such a physique appeared but was unable to protect himself.
In the Moonlight Realm, Su Qingwu is strong enough to protect himself and does not have to worry about anything.
But can we travel to the Yuanji world in the future?
By then, if you fail to keep the secret, what awaits you will be endless disasters.
Although she had anticipated the relevant matters before, now that she was at the auction and witnessed the various performances of these monks with her own eyes, she found that she had greatly underestimated the influence of this blood.
Currently, the auction price of the mermaid is still soaring and has reached 1.5 million spirit stones.
The number of monks bidding in the field did not decrease.
Some have even begun to use various treasures as collateral.
This incident also brought a strong warning to Su Qingwu.
In the future, she will be extra careful in this regard and keep it secret!
The bidding continued for a whole incense stick.
In the end, it was sold for six million spirit stones and was bought by a man from a large immortal cultivation family.
With this price, one can buy two or three magic weapons of good quality. By comparison, one can see the madness of these monks competing in the auction.
From those people's perspective, Su Qingwu could probably guess what they were thinking.
Mermaids have a long lifespan. The one in the ice coffin has a skeleton age of less than 100 years, so it can still live for at least 900 years.
During this period, as long as the patient's vital signs are maintained, there will be a constant supply of special blood.
In addition, mermaids are hermaphrodites, so perhaps the corresponding forces will find ways to keep their bloodline going.
However, things are unpredictable, and no one can guarantee that there will be no unexpected changes during hundreds of years.
Moreover, auctions are never kept secret from the outside world. It won’t take long for the news of the mermaid with special physique that appeared at the auction today to spread completely.
By then, after defeating the mermaids, they will have to think hard about how to deal with the temptations from the outside world...
After the matter of the mermaid came to an end, the monk presiding over the auction immediately began to introduce the 93rd item for sale.
Fifty plants of green jade ganoderma that are at least a thousand years old.
The monk who discovered this spiritual plant did not pick it directly, but moved it to a giant porcelain basin along with the soil.
This is exactly what Su Qingwu needs.
Qingyuzhi itself does not have a very clear effect, and it is used as an auxiliary material in the refining of some elixirs.
If taken alone, it can only be said to have a certain tonic effect.
Therefore, although the vintage is high, there are very few bidders for it.
The starting price was 700,000 spirit stones, but Su Qingwu successfully bought it for only 750,000.
Soon, the presiding monk continued to introduce the 94th item for auction.
This time, what was being auctioned was a contract for the sale of a hilltop that could be used to grow spiritual plants.
This contract is similar to an ordinary land deed. Once the transaction is completed, the mountain will be declared to have changed hands.
Su Qingwu would not stay in Beihanzhou for long, so naturally he did not participate in the auction.
After that, lots 95 to 98 were all similar items.
Those who participate in the auction all have powerful forces behind them, mainly families.
Soon we arrived at the last most important treasure.
An inconspicuous jade bottle appeared in the sight of the monks.
As the cork was opened, a strange medicinal fragrance wafted out.
Someone in the auction house immediately cried out in surprise.
"What kind of elixir is this? Just by smelling the fragrance of the medicine, the bottleneck that has trapped me in the initial stage of foundation building for many years has actually loosened a little!"
"Me too, it's hard to imagine what effect it would have if I took it directly!"
"I know a lot about various kinds of elixirs, but I have never smelled this kind of medicinal fragrance before. Could it be a new elixir developed by a master alchemist?"
"Most likely, let's see what Director Lin has to say."
The monks were discussing the matter at once, and the monk presiding over the auction coughed lightly at this moment. The originally noisy place immediately became quiet.
