Chapter 96 Auction
As usual, auctions start with some small items.
Pills, minerals, spiritual herbs, monster elixirs, etc.
Ji Qingling had little interest, and Chongtai Daojun naturally looked down on him.
After auctioning off a few items, the female cultivator who was auctioning below took out a box.
"This is the Five Elements Pill that was newly refined by Master Lian, the head of the Beast Taming Sect. If a spirit beast that cannot perform attack spells takes it, it will have a chance to awaken a Five Elements attack spell."
Master Chang Lian was a well-known beast-raising maniac in the Beast Taming Sect. He was always coming up with new gadgets, which delayed his cultivation and prevented him from making a breakthrough.
Taoist Chongtai said to the two people beside him, "This Beast Taming Sect's leader is obsessed with raising beasts and has created many weird things. This cultivator contracted a spirit beast, so he naturally looked for an attacking spirit beast that can cast spells. What's the use of refining this elixir?"
Just then the female cultivator on the stage began to bid, "The starting price is one thousand spirit stones."
Everyone thought that the price was not expensive, but the pill was too useless, and success or failure depended entirely on luck.
Ji Qingling looked a little jealous. She thought she could give Wu Ya a try. Although it might not succeed, if it did, would Wu Ya be able to use magic? Seeing that no one was bidding, the female cultivator on the stage added, "This is made from the inner elixir of a fifth-level flaming bear."
The crowd in the audience was amazed. This Master Chang Lian was really crazy. The inner elixir of a fifth-level flaming bear was expensive in itself, but he actually used it to refine elixirs for spirit beasts, and the effect was so useless! "Daojun, can I take a picture?"
"You want it?"
"Well, I happen to have a spirit beast that's very suitable, I want to give it a try."
"Of course."
Ji Qingling then quoted a price of one thousand spirit stones. Since no one was bidding, she felt that this price was acceptable.
"One thousand and one hundred spirit stones."
Then after she quoted the price, someone followed suit! How annoying! Ji Qingling leaned against the window to see who it was. After a long while, no one called out, but as soon as she called out, they followed immediately.
Could it be someone from the Treasure Pavilion?
She would not be scared off by a hundred spirit stones. "One thousand two hundred spirit stones."
"One thousand three hundred spirit stones."
Then he continued to shout out one hundred spirit stones each time, until Ji Qingling shouted out two thousand spirit stones.
The other party did not continue to quote.
Ji Zuo thought she was a fool, but Chongtai Daojun thought she just had a bit of childish nature.
Afterwards, a maid brought a sign to their room so that when Ji Qingling went out, he could just take the sign and hand in the spirit stones.
Ji Qingling, who had spent two thousand spirit stones, sat there and began to curse the person who had just bid against her, for making her pay one thousand more spirit stones.
If Chongtai Daojun hadn't been here, Ji Zuo would have knocked her on the head. How could that congenitally defective Hidden Breath Beast be worth two thousand spirit stones? Ji Qingling didn't pay attention to what was photographed next. She was afraid that she would spend all the spirit stones in her storage bag today.
By then Ji Qingyuan will really knock her out.
"This treasure is a top-grade spiritual weapon defensive robe - the Golden Silkworm Feather Robe. It is made of silk spun by golden silkworms on thousand-year-old jade mulberry trees. It has extremely high toughness and contains the mysteries of the Eight Trigrams. It can resist extremely strong damage. The starting price is 18,000 spiritual stones."
Oh, it’s so expensive.
People upstairs and downstairs started to bid.
Nineteen thousand, twenty thousand, twenty-one thousand, twenty-two thousand, and finally someone shouted out thirty-two thousand spirit stones, and the bidding stopped.
Thinking back to the Luohan Pearl, a top-grade attack spiritual weapon that Ji Qingling had seen in the Treasure Pavilion, it was only 30,000 spiritual stones. When did the robes become more expensive than weapons? The next moment, the Chongtai Daojun beside her offered a price, "33,000 spiritual stones."
Yuanying is really rich! "Thirty-four thousand spirit stones." Someone bid.
"Thirty-five thousand spirit stones." Chongtai Daojun continued to follow.
After waiting for a while, and seeing no one else bidding, the female cultivator made the final decision, and the item belonged to Chongtai Daojun.
After a while, the maid brought the jade token again.
Taoist Chongtai handed the jade token to Ji Qingling, along with a bag of spirit stones.
"Go get it yourself later. It'll be a gift for you."
"For me?"
Ji Qingling was caught off guard by Chongtai Daojun's actions. Years of habit told her that she should not accept such expensive gifts from others, even if she really liked them.
She was a little confused as to why a Nascent Soul cultivator would bid for a top-grade spiritual weapon, but she didn't expect it would be given to her.
Before Ji Qingling could speak, Ji Zuo spoke first.
"Take it. This is the master's rule."
Ji Qingling didn't answer, "This is too expensive!"
Taoist Chongtai put the item in her hand and said, "The silk spun by the golden silkworm on the thousand-year-old jade mulberry tree is worth the price. Take it!"
The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!
Ji Qingling also knew that he could no longer refuse, so he took the things and bowed to Chongtai Daojun, "Thank you, Daojun."
Most of Chongtai Daojun's disciples have already achieved Dan-forming, and the female disciple who has not yet achieved Dan-forming is usually more serious than he is.
Seeing Ji Qingling's well-behaved appearance, he liked her very much.
The prices of the items being auctioned later became higher and higher, gradually starting at one thousand medium-grade spirit stones.
One medium-grade spirit stone can be exchanged for one hundred low-grade spirit stones, and one high-grade spirit stone can be exchanged for one hundred medium-grade spirit stones.
One piece of top-grade spirit stone can be exchanged for one hundred pieces of high-grade spirit stones. Of course, these top-grade spirit stones are extremely rare.
Soon, Chongtai Daojun's target appeared, a fragment of a jade token. The female cultivator in charge of the auction said that it was the key to a secret place in the desert.
The jade token was divided into three pieces that year. This is one of them. The starting price is 30,000 medium-grade spirit stones.
This price is not low. After all, no one knows what is in the secret realm, and this is only one of the three pieces.
In the end, this piece was bought by Taoist Chongtai for 50,000 medium-grade spirit stones.
The female cultivator on the stage continued to open a box. In the box lay a piece of animal skin, or rather a small piece of irregular animal skin. "This is a part of a map from hundreds of thousands of years ago, left behind by a Mahayana senior. Legend has it that it can help one find a shortcut to ascend to the upper realms without having to go through the dangers of the heavenly thunder. Of course, this is only one piece of it. The others still need to be found by the seniors."
What a coincidence, another piece of debris, is it true or false? That person had the map but didn't have time to use it before he died? Ji Qingling felt that the Treasure Pavilion had a lot of sets. This method should be very common in the martial arts world. A part of the treasure map fragments stirred up the whole martial arts world, and finally found out that the map was fake.
"Because there is only one piece of this map and it is very old, the owner of the map is not asking for a high price. The starting price is 50,000 medium-grade spirit stones."
"One hundred thousand mid-grade spirit stones!" An old voice spread throughout the auction hall, and a sense of pressure followed.
Ji Qingling sighed, how generous this is, he doubled it as soon as he opened his mouth! However, this pressure was really unbearable.
Chongtai Daojun reminded: "Don't resist, it's that senior who has transformed into a god."
Fortunately, the pressure only lasted for a while and then disappeared.
The female cultivators in the audience seemed to have forgotten the pressure from before.
"This senior is offering 100,000 mid-grade spirit stones. Is there anyone else who wants to bid?"
There was silence in the venue! Very good, the things belonged to the senior who had reached the state of incarnation.
No one dared to argue.
Thank you book friend 10688 for the monthly ticket.
