With Mr. Jin's intercession, Lin San and Li Chengfeng easily entered the cracked tree trunk.
There is a downward passage in the tree trunk, and a smooth stone step is built in the passage. A row of dazzling pearls is inlaid at the top of the passage, illuminating the entire downward passage with unusual light.
As Lin San walked down the stone steps, he asked Li Chengfeng next to him: "Where are Mr. Jin and Mr. Shi just now? The man in black robe guarding the door seems to be afraid of them."
Li Chengfeng smiled: "They are all the sons of the elders in the city. In Fengchi City, most people don't dare to provoke them. It was a coincidence that I met Mr. Jin today. But let alone, Mr. Jin is really kind-hearted. But Mr. Shi... is a little too arrogant."
Lin San nodded: "It turns out he is the elder's son, no wonder he is so impressive."
Less than half an hour later, the two came to a hall.
The hall is very luxuriously decorated. The ceiling of the cave is inlaid with dozens of illuminated pearls, and the ground is paved with smooth stone strips. There is a small high platform directly in front of the hall, and a square table is placed on the high platform. In addition, , there are hundreds of wooden chairs placed on both sides of the hall, and most of the chairs are already occupied by people.
Li Chengfeng and Lin San chose a corner to sit down.
Lin San raised his head and looked around the hall, and found that the dozens of people present were all cultivators of the Golden elixir stage, and several of them were still in the later stages of the Golden elixir. At this time, Lin San discovered that Mr. Jin and Mr. Shi were in direct contact with each other. Sitting opposite him, Mr. Jin was leaning sideways as if he was saying something, while Mr. Shi looked indifferent.
"Boom, boom," two drum sounds suddenly came from the hall, and then an old man with a long beard walked out: "Haha... I'm sorry to keep you waiting for so long,"
Li Chengfeng introduced in a low voice: "This old man with a long beard is the organizer of this auction. He is an immortal cultivator in the late Jindan period and is also a slightly famous figure in Fengchi City."
Lin San nodded, indicating that he understood.
The old man with a long beard smiled and said: "Let me announce the rules. There are seven types of items to be auctioned tonight. They are all collected by me with great effort. Each item will have a minimum price. Everyone can take turns to increase the price..." The long-bearded old man said with a smile. The old man had not finished speaking for half an hour, and many people showed a trace of impatience on their faces.
"I said, have you finished speaking? We are here to auction things, not to listen to your blabbering," Mr. Shi, who was sitting opposite Lin San, suddenly yelled impatiently.
The long-bearded old man was startled, and glanced at Mr. Shi. His face was obviously unhappy, but he did not have an attack. He still said politely: "Since everyone can't wait, I will keep the story short. I hope everyone can participate in the bidding in peace. Don't get into any disputes...Okay, let me announce: the auction has officially begun,"
At this time, seven teenagers walked in one after another from outside the hall, each holding a dark box in their hands. The seven teenagers walked into the hall and stood behind the old man with a long beard.
"The first item is a thousand-year-old ginseng. I think everyone should know the efficacy of ginseng. The base price is 10,000 low-level spiritual stones. Each increase in price must not be less than 1,000 low-level spiritual stones." The long-bearded old man stretched out his hand. With a wave of his hand, a young man placed the black box in his hand on the table opposite the old man, and at the same time opened the lid of the box, and a medicinal aroma suddenly filled the entire hall.
“It’s really a thousand-year-old ginseng,”
"The roots of ginseng are so long,"
"It's quite big,"
…
There was a murmur below.
"I'll offer fifteen thousand low-level spiritual stones," someone finally couldn't bear it and started bidding.
If someone starts, things will be easier to handle.
"I will give you eighteen thousand low-level spiritual stones,"
"I'll pay twenty thousand,"
"I'll give you 21,000,"
In a short time, the price of Millennium Ginseng rose to 30,000 low-level spiritual stones.
"I offer fifty thousand low-level spiritual stones," Mr. Jin suddenly shouted.
The long-bearded old man's eyes lit up: "Are there any Taoist friends who want to increase the price?" The old man asked three times in a row, but no one spoke again. In the end, this thousand-year-old ginseng was bought by Mr. Jin.
The next few items to be auctioned are all elixirs or low-level magic weapons.
In the blink of an eye, only the last item was left.
Lin San sat on the chair, feeling a little bored. None of the items in today's auction attracted Lin San.
Li Chengfeng also bid for several items, but unfortunately he couldn't compete with others in the end.
The biggest winners today should be Mr. Jin and Mr. Shi. Four of the six items auctioned were bought by the two of them. They are indeed the sons of the elders in the city, and they have a lot of spiritual stones in their hands.
"The last item took me several years to find. It can be said to be the highlight of today's auction." The long-bearded old man slowly opened the lid of the last black box, and a golden light suddenly came out of the box.
"This is... Taiyi Golden Crystal," a bearded man suddenly exclaimed.
The long-bearded old man glanced at the big man in surprise: "Fellow Taoist's eyes are very sharp. Yes, what is placed in this box is a small piece of Taiyi Gold Crystal. I believe everyone has heard of the name of Taiyi Gold Crystal. Taiyi Gold Crystal is one of the hardest objects in the spiritual world. If Taiyi Gold Crystal is used to refine magic weapons, it will definitely be infinitely powerful."
"Okay, stop talking and tell me the price quickly," someone couldn't wait any longer.
The long-bearded old man stretched out his hand to stroke his beard and said with a smile: "Two hundred thousand low-level spiritual stones."
"Hiss..." Many people took a breath. This old man with a long beard really dared to speak like a lion.
Lin San, who was sitting in the corner, was completely stunned at this moment. He stared blankly at the black box in the hand of the long-bearded old man. His eyes were full of surprise. It really echoed the old saying that there is no place to go after wearing iron shoes. , it took no effort to get it. I just needed the Taiyi Golden Crystal to refine the "Golden Ge Talisman". I didn't expect to meet the Taiyi Golden Crystal here. What a coincidence.
Lin San took a breath, and just as he was about to bid, someone on the opposite side had already taken the lead.
"I offer three hundred thousand low-level spiritual stones," an excited voice came from the other side.
Lin San raised his head and looked towards the opposite side. The bidder turned out to be Mr. Shi.
"I will offer you 310,000 yuan," a Taoist priest with a pale face said slowly.
"I'll pay 350,000 yuan," Master Shi immediately raised the price.
"Three hundred and sixty thousand," the Taoist priest said calmly.
Mr. Shi glared at the Taoist priest fiercely, gritted his teeth and said, "Four hundred thousand,"
"Ah," there was an exclamation in the hall.
The Taoist priest's expression suddenly became hesitant.
At this time, Lin San's face was very ugly. He never thought that someone would bid for the Taiyi Golden Crystal at such a high price. Lin San now only has less than 200,000 low-level spiritual stones in his possession, so he simply couldn't win the bid.
"Four hundred and one hundred thousand low-level spiritual stones," the Taoist priest hesitated for a moment and finally raised the price again.
"I'll pay five hundred thousand," Mr. Shi stared at the Taoist priest coldly: "Old bastard, are you tired of living today? I'm telling you: I'm going to order the Taiyi Gold Crystal. You know what I'm doing, get out of here." Go, or I will make you pay a heavy price." The reason why Mr. Shi came to the auction this time was because he heard that there would be Taiyi gold crystals at the auction. Mr. Shi will recently refine a natal magic weapon, and the main material is Taiyi. Yi Jin Jing, so this time, Mr. Shi must get the Tai Yi Jin Jing no matter how much it costs.
