The Immortal Path is difficult, and Lin Xuan has not experienced dangers before. What's more, the old monster in the separation period may appear at the secret market auction, but it is just an inference. Naturally, he cannot give up because of this.
Wealth can be found in danger. If you want to advance to the later stage, you must first solve the problem of the Demon Infant being unable to upgrade.
Lin Xuan took a breath and walked slowly forward with a calm expression.
As a cultivator in the middle stage of Nascent Soul, he was naturally qualified to enter the auction. After paying 50,000 crystal stones, Lin Xuan successfully entered the city.
It was very open inside. Unexpectedly, there were only a few sparse buildings. The air ban was also not activated. Lin Xuan couldn't help but have a hint of amusement on his face.
Could it be that……
However, he didn't think much about it, but directly released his spiritual consciousness, and soon he had a harvest, which turned into a startling rainbow and flew away like a rainbow in front of him.
After waiting for a cup of tea, Lin Xuan paused for a moment.
A large palace like a beautiful palace appeared in front.
The whole body is crystal clear, and the materials used to build this palace are actually the finest warm jade and cold snow crystal.
Even for immortal cultivators, it is very luxurious.
At the entrance of the main hall, there were nine law enforcement envoys, all of whom were mid-stage Nascent Soul (Transformation) monks. When Lin Xuan arrived, he immediately felt several waves of cold consciousness sweeping over his body, but he quickly moved elsewhere.
.
Lin Xuan murmured a little in his heart, but his face did not show any strange color, and his whole body floated into the palace like a beautiful palace with green light.
The inside is extremely vast, and the layout is different from ordinary secret markets. The monks are not crowded together, but scattered sparsely in a circular pattern. As for the auction platform, it is located in the middle.
With this arrangement, the line of sight becomes wider and wider. No matter who buys something, with the consciousness of Yuanying monk, he can clearly sense it. There is a trace of sarcasm on the corner of Lin Xuan's mouth. Such an expensive auction is actually going on consecutively.
The simplest thing is that there are no restrictions on hiding the identity of customers. This is not an intentional attempt to stir up bloodshed.
Others also frowned, and Lin Xuan saw obvious dissatisfaction on the faces of many old monsters.
Of course, this is just a slander. No one would do anything stupid like complaining in person.
Lin Xuan made a rough estimate that the number of old monsters who had arrived alone was over six hundred. The human race and the demon race were about the same power, each accounting for an equal amount.
There are all middle-stage immortal cultivators and above, among whom there are about forty late-stage great cultivators. It can be said that in the Tianyun Twelve States, one-fifth of the amount came from the auction of high-level beings.
Lin Xuan found a remote place to sit down.
There was about half an hour before the transaction started. He didn't look at the immortal cultivators around him too much. It was too eye-catching. Lin Xuan closed his eyes and began to calm down.
Suddenly, Lin Xuan's pupils shrank, and a trace of doubt appeared on his face.
"Master, what's wrong?"
"I just saw a familiar figure."
"Familiar?" Yue'er was stunned, with a strange expression: "If my little servant remembers correctly, in the Twelve States of Tianyun, the young master does not seem to have any friends above the mid-Nascent Soul stage. Could it be Fairy Xinyue?"
"Xin Yue, she is not this girl." Lin Xuan shook his head: "Maybe it's my eyesight that makes her look like that girl Ru Yan."
When Lin Xuan said this, there was some confusion in his eyes. Logically speaking, with his magical power, it was impossible to get it wrong. But Ru Yan was only an immortal cultivator in the Dan Condensation stage. How could she come here? Moreover, this woman's
The figure only flickered for a moment, and then disappeared.
Shaking his head, Lin Xuan put the matter behind him for the time being.
…
In the entire hall, there were more than 600 people in the middle stage of Nascent Soul and above. However, no one knew that there were two people floating above the auction table in the middle, coldly commenting on their every move.
On the left hand is an old monk with a sallow complexion, with a scorched appearance, looking as if he will die at any moment. Not only that, he also has a scar on his face, which is quite scary, and he is covered with a bright red coat.
cassock.
Although this person is inconspicuous, he is one of the few Lihe monks in the human world, one of the two supreme elders of the Ten Thousand Buddhas Sect, and a great Buddhist monk with top magical powers.
The man next to him was an old man with a tall crown, long ears, blue eyes, and dark green hair. He was the nine-headed ancestor whose granddaughter was killed by Tian Xiaojian.
The fifth-level demon clan has magical powers that are as good as those of monks in the separation and union stage.
Every time the Tianyun Trade Fair is held, the human and demon tribes will each send one such being to sit in the dark.
It stands to reason that such an old monster has long ceased to care about world affairs, and even ordinary magic weapons have no regard for it, but for some reason, he came to the secret market auction this time.
A man and a demon were hanging in the air above the main hall.
Although they are old monsters in the Separation and Reunion Period, and their escape skills are extremely mysterious, it is impossible to hide all the spiritual consciousness of so many Yuan Ying monks.
In addition to their superb magic power, it was also because of their location and the secret formation set up by the ancient monks. The two were superimposed to hide all their bodies and auras.
"Friend Hui Dao, you said that the Tianzhou Luo family has resurrected. Is this news true?"
"I don't know the specific information. It was Wangtinglou Feijian who sent the message and sent his disciples to ask us to be careful and not let the Luo family take advantage of the loophole." The monk sighed and said these words slowly.
.
"Hmph, my visit to the old guy in Tinglou is just making a fuss. It has been so many years since the Luo family was destroyed. Even if there are survivors, they are not worth mentioning. If the other party is really troublesome, then why doesn't the old monster come here himself?
"Jiutou Ancestor said disapprovingly.
Monk Huitong actually didn't have much favorable impression of Tinglou, but he was always of the human race. Seeing the old demon say this, he had to defend Tinglou on the surface: "Fellow Taoist, you can't say this. Although the Luo family's biggest enemy, he is
We are seven major forces, but you must not know what kind of bloodline this family has inherited. If the Tianzhou Luo family really recovers, it will not be of much benefit to you monster clan. This can involve the ancient times..."
"Okay, you don't have to use that incident that happened millions of years ago in the Yin world to pressure me. Besides, we are the most innocent people in the human world. This matter is simply a grudge between the top beings in the spiritual world and the Yin world.
As a result, the human world was involved and used as cannon fodder. Otherwise, why would the ancient monks decline? There were more than nine human worlds at the beginning. As a result, in the final war, several interfaces were directly destroyed. I heard that it also attracted
The interference of the true immortals." When the Nine-Head Ancestor said this, there was a hint of solemnity on his face.
"Humph, so what if you are a real immortal? I once heard that someone from the underworld was forced into a panic and actually made a move with an envoy from the immortal world." Monk Huitong said somewhat strangely.
"Oh, you mean..."
"Okay, let's end this matter. Although millions of years have passed, it is not something that our little clutch monks can discuss. Although the Luo family has nothing to do with that matter in ancient times, after all, it was a coincidence that they obtained
Knowing a little bit of the bloodline of King Tiansha Ming, from this point of view, no matter whether the news from Tinglou is wrong or not, we must be careful, otherwise it will not be good for the human race and the monster race." The monk said coldly.
"Okay, just follow the instructions, fellow Taoist." Jiutou Ancestor nodded and no longer expressed any objection.
The two of them hid here, hoping to find clues to the Luo family's actions. Time slowly passed, and the auction finally officially began.
The spiritual light flickered, and a graceful figure appeared on the high platform in the middle. It was a little hazy, and a light mist lingered around her body.
After a while, it gradually dispersed, and the figure of a woman in palace clothes came into view.
She looks to be about 20 years old, and she can be called a beautiful woman with good looks.
However, Lin Xuan noticed that there were some very small silver scales behind this woman's ears.
Obviously, she is not a pure human monk, but she is also not an ordinary demon incarnation. She is most likely a hybrid.
Originally, this situation was not tolerated by the two tribes, but sometimes there are special circumstances. This woman is probably the descendant of an old monster in the separation and separation period.
"Welcome everyone to Guanghan Palace. I am in white snow. I will host this auction."
After saying this, the woman clapped her hands, and a small door next to her opened with a creak, and seven or eight maids came out one after another.
Each person held a tray in their hands, which was covered with red cloth. Lin Xuan released his consciousness, but it was bounced back. He couldn't help but change his face slightly.
After a moment's hesitation, he withdrew his consciousness. He didn't want to attract other people's attention by peeking forcefully.
Anyway, wait a moment, and the woman named Bai Xue will reveal the answer to the mystery herself.
Seeing that she had successfully attracted everyone's attention, the woman named Bai Xue stretched out her hand and took the tray from the first maid on the right, without first removing the red cloth, and started introducing herself.
"This first auction item is an ancient treasure that was just unearthed not long ago."
"Ancient treasure?"
After hearing this introduction, most of the old monsters around had disappointed looks on their faces. For ordinary immortal cultivators, ancient treasures may be rare but hard to come by, but to them, they are nothing.
Those who can come to this auction all have cultivation levels above the middle stage of Nascent Soul. Not to mention their lofty status in their respective sects. Even casual cultivators are probably the dominant overlords. To enter this place, a ticket costs five yuan.
Wan Jing Shi, their net worth can be imagined, no one takes ancient treasures seriously.
Seeing everyone's lack of interest, Bai Xue did not show dissatisfaction on her face. Instead, she chuckled. With a flick of her jade hand, she lifted up the red cloth, and a Wu hook about a foot long appeared in the palm of her hand.
"The Mother and Son Soul Chasing Hook is an ancient treasure unearthed in Qingxiang County, Bingzhou half a year ago. It is made of black gold cold iron. It also contains more than ten kinds of rare materials such as black sand, yellow jaws, and iron thunder beads. It is extremely hard.
Suitable for people with earth attributes. This hook has a set of eight handles. You can easily use the female hook to use the seven-handled hook to defend against enemies. The base price is 300,000 crystal stones."
As soon as she finished speaking, Bai Xue fired out a spell, and saw a flash of cold light. Following the movements of the female hook in her hand, the seven-handled hooks circled and danced, and a chilling coercion slowly spread in all directions.
Whether they are human cultivators or monsters in the transformation stage of the demon race, many of them have greed in their eyes.
They don't take ordinary ancient treasures seriously, but sets of rare items are another matter.
As we all know, manipulating magic weapons or spiritual weapons requires the consumption of spiritual consciousness. In other words, even if you have a lot of treasures in your storage bag, it is impossible to use them all to defend against enemies.
Taking monks in the middle stage of Nascent Soul as an example, they usually only have four or five magic weapons at their disposal. After all, they still have some spiritual consciousness left to prepare for emergencies.
In this situation, complete sets of treasures are particularly rare. For example, the mother-child soul-chasing hook is equivalent to seven ordinary magic weapons in terms of power. However, because it is controlled by a female hook, it consumes a lot of magic weapons.
It has more consciousness than ordinary magic weapons.
To put it simply, this is a trick-taking method through the art of weapon refining.
Many years ago, Lin Xuan had obtained a set of spiritual weapons, which were rare and exquisite. However, the difficulty of refining the set of magic weapons was more than ten times. In the world of immortality, it was just a legend. Even the old monsters present,
I have never seen it in ten ***, and many eyes are starting to shine, especially because the price is ridiculously low, so there are many people participating in the competition.
"I'll give you 350,000 crystal stones!"
"I am four hundred thousand!"
"Fifty."
…
The bidding continued one after another, and Lin Xuan had to admire that this auction was really no small matter. The first treasure made the atmosphere so heated.
There are even many demon clans participating in the competition. After all, after the transformation period, demon cultivators are divided into two types. One category is dedicated to tempering the demon body and trying to maximize their own talents. The other is similar to humans, refining and driving magic weapons. This
The mother-child ghost hook is also a great temptation for them.
In the end, it was acquired by a strange monk for a sky-high price of 800,000 crystal stones. The strange thing is that no one at the scene knew that guy.
He should be a casual cultivator, but he didn't expect his net worth to be so rich.
Lin Xuan will naturally not participate in the fight. Although there are not many such treasures, he still looks down upon them.
After experiencing this auction, the emotions of the old monsters were all aroused.
Bai Xue's face showed satisfaction. Without her instructions, the second maid stepped forward obediently, knelt down, raised the tray high, and took off the red cloth. What treasure will it be this time?
Yue'er also opened her eyes wide, the little girl was very curious.
A black stone, oval, about the size of a fist.
"Tianxuan heavy gold is an excellent metal refining material. Such a small piece weighs over a thousand kilograms. Its texture is extremely hard. If you want to refine defensive magic weapons, you must not miss it." Bai Xue spoke slowly,
It didn’t introduce too much, but the base price was outrageous: “500,000 crystal stones.”
Many people took a breath of cold air. This was the first time they heard about Tianxuan's heavy gold. Naturally, they would not set the price randomly.
For a moment, the scene fell silent.
"Why, no fellow Taoist recognizes this object?" Bai Xue's eyes slowly swept around, and there was a trace of ridicule at the corner of his mouth: "In this case, the little girl said it herself, I will pay five hundred thousand crystal stones.
"
Lin Xuan was stunned. The auctioneer could still shout and sell himself. Isn't this a bit outrageous?
In fact, in addition to Bai Xue, there were several law enforcement officers around the venue maintaining order. They had dull expressions on their faces and did not stop it. It seemed that this situation was allowed.
The scene was silent, but many Yuanying old monsters who knew each other had already started discussing via voice transmission.
It stands to reason that Xuanyuan City should not deceive buyers, but half a million crystal stones is not a small amount of money. After half an hour, there is still no one to bid.
"One, two, it seems that no Taoist friends want it, so this thing will go home..."
Before he finished speaking, a clear voice suddenly came into his ears from the stands: "Hmph, who said this thing can't be sold? Fifty crystal stones want to take away such a large piece of Tianxuan heavy gold. Fellow Taoist Bai Xue is really good at calculating.
I’ll give you one million.”
Suddenly, everyone turned their attention to him.
Lin Xuan also followed his reputation. He was an immortal cultivator around forty years old. His magical powers were not weak, and he was already at the peak of his cultivation in the middle stage of Nascent Soul.
"It turns out that he is the Dragon Sect Leader of the Tianyuan Sect in Xuzhou. I heard that the Tianyuan Sect is the richest in Xuzhou and that Your Excellency has made such a bold move. It seems that the rumors are true." Bai Xue said with a trace of hatred in his eyes, a bit rogue.
"Haha, fellow Taoist Bai is ridiculous. If Long hadn't really needed it urgently, he wouldn't have competed with fellow Taoist for this huge amount of Tianxuan gold." The man smiled and nodded.
Lin Xuan was also a little stunned. In the past, he boasted that his wealth was as rich as that of the immortal cultivators in the separation and union period. But now it seems that he is a little bit pessimistic.
The wealth in the Twelve Prefectures of Tianyun, especially those sect families, after tens of millions of years of accumulation, is no small matter.
…
Time passes and the auction continues.
Each tray is a treasure of great value, which often triggers desperate fights between the human and demon tribes. Of course, there are also things that fail to be auctioned. For example, the jade tube just now, according to Bai Xue, the content inside is called
"Chi Xiao's Relics", many of you here have heard of the real Chi Xiao, he was a very famous casual cultivator more than a thousand years ago.
Although he was alone in his family, he had great magical powers. Not only did he advance to the level of a great monk, but he also competed with the great elder of Yuling Sect at that time and won the battle.
His magical power can be imagined.
Originally, something like this shouldn't be passed up for sale, but the price tag is a little too expensive. Three million crystal stones. If it is some heaven-defying elixir, even if the old monsters here are extremely distressed, they will still fight for it.
But ***, that won't happen. After all, with their cultivation level reaching their level, no matter how good Chixiao's legacy is, they can't give up the magical power they originally cultivated and practice it again. If they buy this thing, they can only take it back to the sect.
, descendants of Yize.
Although it is of great benefit to our sect, immortal cultivators are selfish and will not spend such priceless crystal stones for the sake of their disciples.
Even if I have that huge sum of money in my pocket, I am still waiting to buy treasures that are useful to me.
At this time, the maids had changed several teams. After each team finished the auction, they went down, and then there were new maids who brought other treasures again.
Of course, not all auction items belong to Xuanyuan City. The old monsters participating in the scene can also recruit maids and hand over the treasures in their bags to them for auction. Of course, the main committee will take a 1% commission.
of.
Lin Xuan never bid, and waited silently in the corner. This is the dragon's pond and the tiger's den, so unless he really saw Xia Gucao who refined the Zhuanying Pill, or the pill that detoxified Qin Xin, otherwise, even if his heart moved,
I won't buy it either.
"A piece of the Ghost Emperor's inner elixir in the late Nascent Soul stage starts at one million crystal stones." Bai Xue's voice came into her ears. (To be continued,)
