Since both Yang Lu and Liu Qi were cultivators, they could travel much faster than ordinary mortals, and they quickly approached their destination.
Yang Lu was surprised to find that the highest point of Yingxiangding was actually a flat platform on the top of the mountain. Rows of oriental-style buildings were built on this platform. From time to time, monks could be seen traveling between Yingxiangding and Tianshu City.
.
However, Liu Qi did not lead Yang Lu straight to the highest point. Instead, he turned to the side and came to a relatively gentle hillside.
After a while, the two passed through a bamboo forest. Yang Lu found that a white light curtain appeared in front of him. Behind the light curtain, there was a quiet and elegant attic, which looked different from the main architectural style of the Shanying Sect.
"This is it. This layer of restrictions can only be opened by those with an invitation letter from the Liu Family Chamber of Commerce. Of course, we are not within this restriction." Liu Qi raised his hand and tapped lightly on the light curtain, then slightly opened his hands.
With just a "Zila" sound, the white light curtain was directly opened by Liu Qi's hands to create an entrance several people wide.
After the two of them entered the ban, Liu Qi wanted to say something more, but saw a middle-aged scribe with an elegant manner coming forward.
This person glanced at Yang Lu, who was wearing a bamboo hat, and said with some surprise: "Hey, isn't this Manager Liu? I didn't expect that you would actually take guests to the auction in person!"
"Haha, it turns out to be President Su. It seems you have just arrived! This Mr. He is a friend of my elder Liu. It is his first time to attend the Tianshu City auction, so I personally introduced him to him. Mr. He
, This is Su Yuanfeng, the president of the Haiya Chamber of Commerce, known as the God of Wealth in the southeastern coastal area of Zhongzhou, and I specially invited him to participate in the auction!" Shopkeeper Liu was stunned at first, and then said with a smile on his face, he seemed to have a relationship with the other party.
Not a bad look.
It turns out that this person is Su Yuanfeng, the second-in-command of the Haiya Department!
Yang Lu had already met Jiang Hua'an, the boss of the Haiya Clan, and Han Xinhe, the third-in-command of the Haiya Clan. This was the first time Yang Lu met Su Yuanfeng, the second-in-command of the Haiya Clan and the president of the Haiya Chamber of Commerce.
For such a big shot to participate, the Liu Family Chamber of Commerce's auction standards can be said to be quite high!
This made Yang Lu take a high look at the Liu Family Chamber of Commerce again.
Hearing that Yang Lu was a friend of Liu Hanxing, Su Yuanfeng immediately raised his eyebrows and said seriously: "It turns out that he is a friend of Elder Liu. Su has never heard of the name of Fellow Daoist He. You must be from Yunlai City Wuliangjian
Send it!”
Yang Lu possesses a variety of spells for concealing aura, some of which were created by Butler Zhou, the foundation-building perfectionist.
Even Liu Qi doesn't know his specific cultivation level. He only knows that he is a monk in the early stage of Qi refining.
Without knowing Yang Lu's cultivation level, Su Yuanfeng, a monk in the later stage of foundation establishment, directly used the term "fellow Taoist" to refer to his peers. Obviously, Liu Hanxing's face played a big role.
Yang Lu knew that talking too much would lead to mistakes, so he just cupped his hand and said politely: "President Su, nice to meet you!"
He did not introduce his detailed identity, but everyone was a person of identity, and Su Yuanfeng did not get to the bottom of it.
During the conversation, the three of them arrived in front of the loft where the auction was held.
This attic has two floors. On the lintel between the two floors, there is also a simple wooden plaque hanging with three large golden characters of "White Jade Pavilion" written on it by flying dragons and phoenixes.
"This attic is built in imitation of the white jade pavilion where Lu Yang, the president of the Lingshi Reserve Bank, once worked. During his work in the white jade pavilion, President Lu Yang wrote many shocking papers. The architectural shape of this pavilion is therefore
Popular in all of Kyushu. Two fellow Taoists, please come in." Shopkeeper Liu introduced and invited with a smile.
There were many mortal servants on the first floor of Baiyu Pavilion. After seeing the three of them, they all bowed respectfully and saluted.
However, Shopkeeper Liu ignored these mortals and led the two guests up the stairs to the second floor.
The second floor of Baiyu Pavilion is a hall of hundreds of square meters. Against the surrounding walls, there are large solid wood tables and chairs. Many of them are occupied by monks in different clothes. Many of them are wearing the same clothes as him.
Wear a hat or mask.
Yang Lu counted a little and found that there were about 40 people in total.
These people are either foundation-building stage monks or Qi-refining stage monks who have a special invitation letter from the Liu Family Chamber of Commerce. Even if you look at the entire southeastern coastal area of Zhongzhou, they can be regarded as the first-class lineup of cultivators.
After shopkeeper Liu arranged for Su Yuanfeng and Yang Lu to sit down, they continued to wait for about ten minutes.
After the last few guests arrived, Shopkeeper Liu stood up, clapped his hands and said, "Okay, it's almost time. All the friends who should come should have arrived. Everyone is either a member of our Liu Family Chamber of Commerce, or an important member of our Liu Family Chamber of Commerce.
Partners, if you fellow Taoists have no objections, let the auction officially begin."
Seeing that no one objected, Shopkeeper Liu ordered the people around him:
"Come here, bring me the treasure!"
Following Shopkeeper Liu's order, mortal servants immediately came to the center of the hall carrying several beautifully crafted wooden boxes.
Liu Qi casually took a wooden box and took out a branch-like object. The branches of this branch were of seven colors, and the seven-color divine light flickered on its surface, making it look very mysterious.
Seeing this scene, everyone's eyes were drawn towards it, looking at the box with different expressions.
Liu Qi introduced with a smile: "This is Penglai Jade Branch, an auxiliary material for refining weapons that comes from the depths of the eastern ocean in Zhongzhou. After adding the branches of Penglai Jade Branch to low-level magic weapons, it can be adjusted at will according to the cultivator's spiritual root attributes.
The seven attributes of the magic weapon, if you want to find a magician to customize the magic weapon, this is a rare and precious material. As for the starting price... ten thousand yuan of spiritual stone coins!"
Monks have spiritual root attributes, and spells and magic weapons also have attributes.
For wind spirit root monks like Li Qingning, if they activate wind attribute spells and magic weapons, they are more than 30% more powerful than activating other attribute spells and magic weapons. Therefore, cultivators will give priority to spells and magic weapons with the same attributes.
Penglai Yuzhi was born in the depths of the ocean in the east of Zhongzhou. It is a specialty of the southeastern coastal area of Zhongzhou. Most of the monks sitting here are locals and have more or less heard of the name Penglai Yuzhi.
It's just that although this Penglai jade branch looks very magical, its practical application is not wide.
Just like Li Qingning would choose the wind attribute magic weapon "Xunfeng" as his natal magic weapon, when most monks choose magic weapons, they will give priority to magic weapons that adapt to their own spiritual root attributes, and basically will not consider magic weapons with other attributes.
The biggest practical use of Penglai Jade Branch is actually to convert the enemy's trophies obtained by killing people and seizing treasures into magic weapons of the same attribute that can be used by oneself. The application limitations are quite large.
Sure enough, after hearing about the specific effects of Penglai Jade Branch, most of the monks turned back their interested eyes.
Spending 10,000 yuan of spiritual stone coins to convert the attributes of your own magic weapon is still not worth it no matter how you calculate it!
The total value of most low-level magic weapons is less than 10,000 spirit stone coins. Magic weapons that require such a huge cost to convert attributes are worth at least 100,000 spirit stone coins. Even monks in the foundation building period rarely have them.
Such a luxurious magic weapon!
After a few monks made quotations here and there, the final transaction price of the Penglai jade branch was fixed at 12,500 yuan of spiritual stone coins.
Shopkeeper Liu doesn't care about this result. After all, this kind of auction has always been about showmanship first and business second. Moreover, the first things taken out at the auction must be the most common goods. Really high-quality treasures are often
