To the west of the inner city of Kirigakure Fairy City, there is a large shop called [Babaozhai].
The entrance to this auction is a side door next to the "Babaozhai". The side door is very inconspicuous and is located in an alley. At the door of the alley, there are two gatekeepers standing.
When Xiao Lin came here, he happened to see a monk walking into the side door. Xiao Lin came to the two gatekeeper monks. Under a slight scan of his spiritual consciousness, he couldn't help but show a look of shock on his face.
He couldn't sense the cultivation level of the two people at all, and the spiritual pressure emanating from the two people gave him a feeling of palpitations. All this showed that the two people in front of him were at least monks at the ninth level of Qi refining.
They are also two cultivators who have reached the Dzogchen realm in the Qi refining stage.
Although Xiao Lin has never seen a monk in the foundation building stage, he judged from his feeling that the two people in front of him should still be monks in the Qi refining stage.
After handing the wooden token he got from Luo Shou to one of them, Xiao Lin entered the side door. After entering the side door, there was a long and narrow aisle. After passing through the dozens of meters of aisle, Xiao Lin came to
In a small living room.
There was only one smiling woman in the living room. The woman looked to be in her mid-twenties, with fair skin, willowy eyebrows and almond-shaped eyes, and a small cherry mouth that opened and closed people's imagination, full of temptation.
Seeing Xiao Lin come in, the woman smiled slightly and said: "The little girl is the receptionist of Babao Zhai. Her surname is Xu and Feng Niang. Seeing how nervous Taoist fellow Taoist, she must be participating in the auction of our Babao Zhai for the first time."
"Xiao Lin, I am a casual cultivator. I accidentally learned about the auction, so I came to join in the fun." Xiao Lin bowed his hands and said lightly.
"It is also a fate to know that our Babao Zhai is holding an auction. The little girl welcomes fellow Taoists on behalf of Babao Zhai. It is just the first time for fellow Taoists to come. I am afraid that I don't know some unspoken rules for participating in the auction, so I remind you in advance.
Meet fellow Taoist."
Seeing the look of surprise on Xiao Lin's face, Xu Fengniang said: "Our auction this time is mainly targeting high-level Qi refining monks and early-stage foundation-building monks. Of course, early-stage foundation-building monks are interested in small-scale people like us."
There are not many people interested in the auction, and there are not many people who come, and most of them are monks in the late stage of Qi refining and Dzogchen."
Glancing at Xiao Lin who was listening carefully, Xu Fengniang continued: "The items auctioned in our auction include materials, elixirs, magic weapons, and even some special items, such as exercises, elixir recipes, spiritual talismans, etc.
Wait, and we will not examine the origins of these items, because the items for auction are also placed with us by other monks, but we all know that in the world of cultivation, the strong are still respected, and it is not easy for the weak to survive, and in order to protect
The monks who have purchased rare items from us will not be intercepted and hunted as soon as they leave the city. Therefore, all Taoist friends who participate in the auction can purchase a breathing mask from me. This mask is made of special materials.
, it can cover the monk's cultivation realm and aura. We must know that the most important information for us cultivators to track someone is a person's aura. This aura has its own induction. It cannot be explained and is unique to each person.
Yes, and once the breath is tracked, there is a high probability that you will not be able to escape. The breath-condensing masks we sell are precisely to cover the breath of our customers, thereby ensuring everyone's safety after leaving here. Of course, if
If fellow Taoists are confident in their own fighting power, they can buy this breath-condensing mask, but we, Babao Zhai, are not responsible for your personal safety after leaving this door."
After listening, Xiao Lin finally understood that Xu Fengniang had said so much that she wanted to buy a breath-condensing mask to cover her own breath to prevent being targeted and hunted down by interested people.
Xiao Lin was naturally happy with this method. He was always afraid of trouble. After Xu Fengniang finished speaking, Xiao Lin said calmly: "This breathing mask is indeed good. I bought it."
After painfully paying 80 low-grade spirit stones, Xu Fengniang handed Xiao Lin a mask. After putting it on his face, he immediately turned into a man who looked to be in his mid-twenties with a sallow complexion.
His cultivation was also completely covered, and he couldn't sense it at all.
Although Xiao Lin felt that buying a mask for eighty yuan of low-grade spirit stones was not worth it, he also became very interested in the material of the mask, but he knew that now was not the time to study it.
"What is recorded in this jade slip is the list of items for our auction this time. Any monk who purchases a breath-condensing mask can receive one as a gift for free." Xiao Lin, who was looking at the mask in his hand, couldn't help but be startled when he heard Xu Fengniang's words.
Taking the jade slip from Xu Fengniang's hand, his spiritual sense slightly scanned the contents of the jade slip, and he suddenly felt happy. He suddenly felt that the eighty yuan of low-grade spiritual stones he spent was well worth it.
After putting on the mask, under Xu Fengniang's guidance, he opened a door and walked in.
As soon as he entered the gate, Xiao Lin came to a dark hall. In the center of the hall was a stone platform several feet in size. Surrounding the stone platform were circles of steps. Each of these steps was three meters tall.
There is a seat that goes around in a circle until it reaches the outermost edge, where Xiao Lin stands.
At this moment, at least 80% of the people were sitting in those seats. With a glance, Xiao Lin estimated that there were at least one or two hundred people. What surprised Xiao Lin was that the hall with so many people was actually silent. Those sitting on the seats
Most of the cultivators closed their eyes and rested their minds. A few people looked around but didn't say a word.
There are more than a dozen small private rooms built around the hall. With a glance, Xiao Lin knew that these small private rooms were full of people. He didn’t know who they were, but he thought they must be these eight people.
VIP guest of Baozhai.
Xiao Lin casually found a seat nearby and sat down. Beside him, there was also a black-faced man and a scar-faced man sitting respectively. However, Xiao Lin knew that these two people must also have worn the clothes they bought from Xu Fengniang.
The breath-holding mask is not its original appearance.
After the two of them saw Xiao Lin, the dark-faced man smiled slightly at Xiao Lin as a greeting, then closed his eyes again and remained silent, while the scarred man didn't even raise his eyelids.
He just glanced at Xiao Lin indifferently, then turned to look at Shitai again.
Xiao Lin doesn't mind either. He knows very well that most of the people who can come here to participate in this auction are the outstanding people in the Hidden Mist Fairy City. Among them are some arrogant people, even those who are suffering alone like Xiao Lin.
There are also many cultivators.
Moreover, Xiao Lin has always followed the principle of doing less than doing more. Although he got the mysterious seed by chance and found such a wonderful place as the spirit wood space, he cannot guarantee that no one can compare with him.
My own blessings are even deeper. After all, there are people outside the world.
After looking around for a moment, he even tried to use his spiritual consciousness to scan the surroundings, but was surprised to find that his spiritual consciousness was unable to be three-dimensional. It seemed that the mask on his face not only blocked other people's detection, but also his own spiritual consciousness was blocked.
After restraining himself, Xiao Lin finally just followed the example of most monks and closed his eyes to rest his mind.
About half an hour later, Xiao Lin suddenly opened his eyes. On the central stone platform, two people appeared. One of them was an old man who looked to be in his seventies or eighties. His face was full of wrinkles and he looked decrepit.
The other person is a woman, pure and beautiful, holding a jade plate in her hands, and on the jade plate is a shining golden bracelet.
Seeing the bracelet on the jade plate, there was a sudden commotion among the many monks in the stands. Xiao Lin saw that the door behind him had been closed at some point, and a middle-aged man in white robes stood at the door with his arms folded across his chest.
, closed his eyes slightly, but when Xiao Lin saw this middle-aged man in white robes, his eyelids jumped, and he felt an instinctive fear. He didn't know that this was a suppression of inspiration caused by too great a disparity in strength, but
However, he was very sure that this middle-aged man in white robe was definitely not a monk in the Qi Refining Stage, but was most likely a cultivator in the Foundation Establishment Stage.
It seems that Babaozhai has really invested a lot of money for this auction. Even the foundation-building monks can be hired as guards. However, Xiao Lin is relieved when he thinks about it. Among the many monks present, which one is not a large number of monks?
The best among them, if they see the treasure they urgently need, if they start making a fuss, it will not end well.
Thinking of this, Xiao Lin looked back at the stone platform in the center. The old man on the stone platform first clasped his fists and bowed around him, then showed a warm smile and said: "Dear fellow Taoists, I am the deacon of Babao Zhai, Bai Baiweng, who has been ordered to preside over this event."
This auction, and in order to ensure the smooth progress of this auction, I have invited several seniors in the foundation building period to be responsible for the safety of this auction, and all the items in this auction are by my side.
Within this star ring.
"It is indeed a star ring. It is rumored that the smallest space in the star ring is about ten square meters. It is a high-end magic weapon."
"Normally even the foundation-building monks cannot afford this kind of magical artifact. I heard that only the ancestors of the Golden Pill can afford it."
"That's natural. The most common price of this star ring magic weapon is tens of thousands of low-grade spiritual stones. We, monks in the Qi refining stage, should never even think about it in this life."
"Babaozhai is indeed a generous person. He even used the star ring to store the items for this auction. It seems that the items for this auction are very precious. I am looking forward to this trip."
Xiao Lin's eyes lit up, and his face was full of surprise. Although he had never seen this star ring, he had heard of it. It was a high-level space magic weapon. Not only was the production process complicated,
Moreover, the materials are extremely rare. It is rumored that the material used is a rare metal called star gold. This metal is not only used to make star rings, but many high-level space magic weapons require this star gold.
Babaozhai used the star ring to store the items for this auction in order to show off its financial resources among the many monks and thereby enhance its reputation. Obviously, this purpose has been achieved.
This star ring alone is not something that the monks present can possess.
After a while, the whispers in the hall slowly disappeared. Bai Tianweng smiled and cupped his hands to everyone, and said: "The items for this auction were personally selected from many treasures by a Jindan elder from our Babaozhai."
The ones that come out are obtained from the major fairy cities in the Tianlu Mountains. I think they will not disappoint you fellow Taoists. Now, I will announce that our auction has officially begun."
