Under the leadership of Murong Lie, Xiao Jingchen and others walked into the auction house. The dark passages around them seemed a bit cool when they entered. The dragon sculptures hanging on the wall appeared vivid, like lifelike living creatures.
Gradually going deeper inside, a bright light came from the front, and noisy noises were heard from time to time, followed by overwhelming sounds. The surroundings were no longer so quiet and deserted, which made Xiao Jingchen frown.
Xiao Jingchen stood at the end of the passage, with a surprised look on his face. The noisy sound was rising and falling, and the crowd below filled the entire auction, which was very majestic.
Standing at the highest point and looking down, the entire auction was very large. It would not be a problem to accommodate thousands of people. At this time, there was a figure standing in the center of the auction. He was wearing a white robe, with gray temples, and his upper body was a little hunched. But that
His eyes were as sharp as a sharp eagle looking around.
"Everyone, please be quiet. I am the auctioneer of this auction. The annual auction has officially begun." The old man standing in the center slowly opened his mouth. His voice was not very loud, but it made everyone
Everyone who comes can hear it clearly.
At this time, the people sitting below slowly turned their attention to the stage, looking at the very old figure, seemingly unconcerned, and the noisy voice sounded again.
A smile appeared on the old man's rosy face, and his frail old body suddenly straightened up slightly. At this moment, energy fluctuations were heard in the space, spreading around at lightning speed.
"Huh"
Xiao Jingchen let out a cry of surprise, looking at the colorless wave that was spreading all around him, his body surface trembled slightly unconsciously, blood-colored spiritual power flashed, colliding with the energy wave.
However, the energy fluctuation seemed to have sensed something, and then it retreated and dispersed. However, a sharp gaze penetrated the space and looked at Xiao Jingchen, and an invisible pressure rushed towards him.
Feeling the terrifying pressure, Xiao Jingchen immediately let out a soft groan. Their eyes intertwined in mid-air, and the old man suddenly laughed, and the pressure was shaken away.
Among the people below, there were also some people with surprised expressions on their faces. At the same time, they looked solemnly at the old man. After seeing the smile on the old man's old face, spiritual power emitted from his body to resolve the invisible energy fluctuations.
As those with lower levels of strength were affected by the energy fluctuations, their faces turned pale, their bodies trembled slightly, and their previously proud faces became shocked.
The noisy voices gradually faded away, and the entire auction became unusually quiet. Everyone was focused on the stage and became very honest.
"It's true that Grandpa Jiang is so old, and he still comes out to join in the fun with these people." Murong Yu'er whispered beside her, but her eyes were always fixed on the old figure, with a warm look on her face.
.
"Yu'er, who is the old man below? I didn't expect such a powerful person to be in charge of this auction." Xiao Jingchen also asked with a slight surprise.
"Grandpa Jiang is my elder. Before I went up the mountain with my master, he watched me grow up and loved me very much. Even my marriage to Ouyang Hua, Grandpa Jiang tried his best to delay. For this reason, he and I
My grandfather had a falling out, so he left the family and traveled around the world. I didn't expect to meet him here." When Murong Yu'er said this, she also looked at the old man on the stage below.
"I see."
"Brother Xiao, what should we do with so many people..." Fang Zhiheng, who had been standing by in a daze, was seeing such a big scene for the first time, and he couldn't help but be a little surprised.
"Why don't you go down and find a remote place to sit down and wait for the auction to start." Xiao Jingchen said after thinking for a while.
"Little brother, you are looking down on me when you say this. Although I have a low status in the Murong family, here, I am the owner of this auction house. Since I am a friend of the young lady, I am also an honored guest. If the hospitality is not good,
, I feel uneasy." Murong Lie suddenly said.
After Murong Lie finished speaking, he muttered a few words in the servant's ears, and then led Xiao Jingchen and others down to a nearby room.
While passing through several doors, the people resting inside all showed shock on their faces. Although they were all rich or noble people, it was still very difficult to meet the owner of this club. Even Qin Dan from the Grand Prince's Palace
The eldest son is no exception.
"Damn it, who is he? He can actually invite the owner of the club to accompany him." Qin Dan sat in the room and witnessed everything from the transparent black mirror, with a look of jealousy on his face and clenched his fists tightly.
In another room, the figure in the center was looking at Xiao Jingchen with interest. The three people behind him all had shocked expressions on their faces, and cold sweat broke out on their foreheads.
"It's interesting. We were hiding in front of the auction just now. It seems we missed something." Mr. Mo said with a smile, but there was a white chill in his eyes that passed away.
After Murong Lie led Xiao Jingchen and others into the room, he ordered his servants to take care of them and then left.
The room became very quiet at this time. The wall in front of the spacious cabin was hollowed out and replaced with a huge black mirror, which allowed everything below to be seen clearly.
"It's so comfortable. Is this a room only for VIPs? This way, the treasures bought will not be discovered by anyone, and can avoid unnecessary troubles." Fang Zhiheng sat on the wooden chair, excited.
said.
Xiao Jingchen didn't think too much. He looked around and saw that the sound insulation effect of the house was very good. He felt relieved and sat down, waiting for the first treasure to appear.
At this time, the door of the auction has been tightly closed, and all the guards have surrounded the entire club, looking around with murderous eyes.
"This auction is better than previous years. We have carefully prepared thirty auction items for you. Every auction item will satisfy everyone. I hope you will wait quietly, and at the same time, I hope you will not
If a fight breaks out during the auction, otherwise all the martial arts will be destroyed and thrown out of the auction. I hope everyone will remember this." The old man in white slowly glanced around and said with a smile.
"Okay, I believe everyone can't wait. I won't waste your time anymore. I announce that the auction has officially begun."
After finishing speaking, the old man in white took out a small jade-white hammer from the wooden box on the table. In vain, a wave of cold air spread out. Suddenly, there were exclamations from the bottom of his mouth.
"The Ice Hammer is actually the legendary Ice Hammer. Oh my god, is this the first treasure this time?" A person below suddenly stood up and shouted loudly.
"Brother, sit down quickly. Don't be embarrassed. The first treasure is the Qiankun Hammer for auction." A man next to him said with a smile.
Looking at the commotion of the crowd below, the old man in white coughed a few times, and then spoke again: "If you like the treasures that will be displayed one by one later, you can bid for them. There is no upper limit on the price. After the treasures are sold,
You need to pay the Spiritual Energy Pill immediately, and the auction will take out 10% of the profit. If your Spiritual Energy Pill is not enough, you can use your own treasures to be auctioned by the auction house, and use the Spiritual Energy Pill earned in exchange for taxes."
As soon as these words came out, the crowd started to commotion. From time to time, some people became excited, while others became depressed. Xiao Jingchen in the room also smiled slightly after hearing these words.
"Okay, now let's start with the first auction item. This is a defensive spiritual art, the Giant Turtle Art, an earth-level mid-level spiritual art. People who practice this art can transform their own spiritual power into the form of a turtle.
To defend yourself and fight against a strong person one level above yourself, you can block a fatal blow in a critical moment." The old man in white held his palm, and a jet black ring appeared, and then a white light flashed, and something floated in the air.
in the white light.
I saw a faint illusion appear on the surface of the Giant Turtle Technique, and the giant turtle-like form turned and appeared in front of everyone. The huge body was very clumsy, and the back of the turtle was as hard and thick as a steel castle. It was so imposing.
, which actually made many people a little excited.
"Giant Turtle Technique!" After hearing that the first treasure was actually such a defensive spirit technique, the crowd below all showed greedy eyes. Just thinking that the spirit technique could block a fatal blow from a strong person with a higher realm than themselves, they
Very interested.
"Giant Turtle Technique, the auction price, starting price is 30,000 Spiritual Energy Pills, each increase must not be less than 5,000 Spiritual Energy Pills, starting now." The old man in white finished speaking calmly and looked down.
"Thirty-five thousand." After the old man in white finished speaking, someone shouted the price loudly.
"forty thousand"
"Forty-five thousand"
"fifty thousand"
“….”
Xiao Jingchen looked at the gradually rising and rising sounds in the auction, his face was very dull. He only looked at the moment when the Giant Turtle Technique appeared, and then closed his eyes. Although it was a defensive spiritual technique, Xiao Jingchen was actually a physical refiner.
Self-cultivation does not require such treasures.
"Sixty thousand"
"Seventy thousand"
As the bidding increased, the scene also became a little heated, but after all, it was the first treasure, so some people did not bid, and kept the spiritual energy pills, waiting for the next treasure.
"Once in seventy thousand"
"Seventy thousand times"
"Seventy thousand three times"
"clang"
"make a deal"
The first round of competition at the auction has come to an end, and the Giant Turtle Art was finally acquired by a middle-aged man at a price of 70,000 spiritual energy pills.
Xiao Jingchen also sighed for a while. He didn't expect that a piece of defensive spiritual power was so valuable. After thinking about the spiritual energy pill he obtained in the cemetery, it was indeed a small thing.
"This is just the first treasure. It seems that the prices of the next forty-nine treasures will only get higher and higher. Fortunately, I refined three Qi Condensing Pills last night. Otherwise, I don't know what to do next." Xiao Jingchen
He murmured in his heart, caressing the white jade bottle with his hand.
While Xiao Jingchen was thinking, the auction site below started the auction of the second treasure. It was still a spiritual weapon, but this time it was an offensive spiritual weapon. Although it was of no use to Xiao Jingchen himself, it was still a good treasure in general.
, after some competition, he was also won by a handsome man with 80,000 spiritual energy pills.
Half an hour has passed since the auction started, and the scene would get up and down from time to time. With the appearance of the next few treasures, the price also increased to 300,000 spiritual energy pills. It was really a big deal.
Xiao Jingchen unconsciously took a deep breath. He really had no chance to see such a scene. As the previous dozen treasures were auctioned, the next treasures became much more precious. Many of the treasures had names that Xiao Jingchen had never heard of.
, I think they are all rare things.
"What will appear next is the twentieth treasure of this auction, the Wind Spirit Wing that flies to the sky and escapes from the earth."
"The starting price is 500,000 Spiritual Energy Pills."
As soon as these words came out, the people below went completely crazy. The crowd erupted in exclamations, which were very loud. Even some people sitting in the room on the second floor had their eyes shining and a smile on their lips.
