Chapter 1240: Spirit Sword
"It is said to give all cultivators a fairer opportunity to compete. For example, the best items in the Foundation Establishment Period may be photographed by those sects and left to outstanding disciples under the sect." Su Zimao said, "In fact, apart from this matter, it has no effect on us. Instead, the Restoration Pill may be sold at a higher price."
"That's right." Su Zijun also nodded, "All of them are cultivators in the Foundation Establishment Stage. The Restoration Pill seems more precious, and more cultivators will participate in the auction."
"Then we can find an opportunity to trade the sword technique directly to the Sword Sect. Anyway, the sword technique has not been handed over to the auction site to appraise the items and pictures, and it does not restrict us from trading privately." Fang Yi said, "It's just a different way to sell it to them."
"I said Brother Fang, it's not that easy. The sword sect came from the Golden Pill Ancestor, so basically there was no chance to meet."
Su Zijun seemed to have figured out something, shook her head and sighed, "Forget it, for a long time, our Buyi Sect only has the foundation-building stage cultivation level. Relying on the Buyi Bird to occupy a huge Buyi Island for thousands of years, it should be content. Now I am too greedy with Brother Fang and Elder Long."
"If I have the chance, I would like to see the people of the Sword Sect."
To be precise, Fang Yi wanted to see the skills of the Sword Sect and see how they compared with the sword control technique he obtained. Fang Yi actually doesn't care about the sword control technique that cannot be auctioned. It is good to have the opportunity to make friends with the Sword Sect, but with such a relationship, you want to protect someone? Perhaps Fang Yi does not know the Sword Sect enough, but in his opinion, this relationship is really not solid.
"The Sword Sect is established on Xilai Island." Su Zijun looked at Fang Yi, "Seldom people go to Xilai Island, do you know why?"
Before Fang Yi could answer, Su Zimao said, "The entire Xilai Island belongs to the Sword Sect, and all practitioners practice the native flying sword. The most important thing is that there is no island in the eight thousand miles of sea around Xilai Island." Su Zimao said with a look of yearning, "The martial arts taught by the Sword Sect are extraordinary, and you can fly with swords in the Qi Refining Period. There is no teleportation array in Xilai Island. You can fly with swords when you leave Xilai Island. You will only be able to transfer through the teleportation array until you are outside the eight thousand miles of sea."
"Some people have also wanted to see the sword technique of the Sword Sect and forcefully break into the last eight thousand miles of sea, but whether they rely on ships or flying with swords, they will be intercepted and driven away. Of course, there are rumors that as long as someone can fly with swords and break all kinds of obstacles and climb to Xilai Island through the eight thousand miles of seas, they are friends of the Sword Sect. Anyway, I have never heard of outsiders climbing Xilai Island. The Sword Sect rarely communicates with other sects. Even if they collect sword techniques and rare treasures from all over the world, they are mostly obtained through auctions and do not take advantage of others. If there is a little cause and effect, they will help without hesitation. There are too many sects that want to have some connection with them, and we are just one of them."
"This Sword Sect is really weird. In the future, I will find an opportunity to explore the eight thousand miles of sea area." Fang Yi raised his lips and showed a smile. Listening to Su Zimao's narration, a hint of yearning also emerged in his heart.
"By the way, Sect Master, there is something else." Fang Yi suddenly remembered the matter of the Heiyu Xiaojian and asked quickly, "I plan to take a picture of something."
"rest assured."
Su Zijun waved his hand, "Since I promised Brother Fang, the sect will definitely not break his promise. It is not a problem for Brother Fang to not be auctioned off. The original promise is still valid. As long as there is no more than 300 top-grade spirit stones, the sect will take a photo for you."
"But the problem is..." Fang Yi paused, "This lot is indeed too much. If the top-grade spirit stones in the sect are enough, I want to borrow some and deduct them from the share of the spirit deer raising in the future."
"This way, there is no problem. How many spirit stones are needed?" Su Zijun asked while checking his storage bag.
"One thousand five hundred yuan should be enough." Fang Yi estimated a number. The black jade sword was blank in everything. I guess no one would bid for him. Just in case, a few hundred extra spirit stones were added as a guarantee.
"How many?" Fang Yi reported the numbers that scared Su Zijun, "How many spirit stones did you say? I seemed to have heard it wrong."
"One thousand five hundred yuan." Fang Yi repeated, and said with a wry smile, "Sect Master, you heard it right, there are indeed a lot of them."
"You...what are you going to shoot? Are there such expensive things in the Foundation Establishment Auction Store?" Su Zijun and Su Zimao's eyes widened at the same time.
"Don't you know?" Fang Yi was a little surprised, "I said to Sect Master, the Second Island Master, you might not have gotten the album of the lots."
"There are certainly pictures and albums. The problem is that we have read it. In addition to the sky-high price of Lingshu Speed, the highest starting price is the Taoist Stone." Su Zijun flipped his hand and took out a picture album. While looking through it, he said, "No one will buy Lingshu Speed. Not to mention the foundation-building store, the Jindan stage store cannot be sold." Lingshu Speed is a special item. As long as there are enough spirit stones, innate cultivators can control it. Therefore, the three auction halls of Qi refining, foundation-building, and Jindan are auctioned.
I quickly finished reading the picture album, and I didn’t see any items with higher starting price than the Enlightenment Stone from beginning to end.
After reading it, Su Zijun handed the picture album to Fang Yi, "Brother Fang, you are not planning to shoot the enlightenment stone, I guess I can't take pictures of 1,500 spirit stones."
Fang Yi took the picture album handed over by Su Zijun and looked through it page by page, but he really didn't find the Black Jade Sword. He thought he was dazzled, so he handed the picture album to Long Wanda, "Old Long, look, don't be dazzled by me."
The little devil came over and stared at Long Wanda and searched through the entire picture album, and was stunned.
"Fang Yi, you have been cheated." The little devil looked at Fang Yi with contempt, "I just think that boy doesn't look like a good person. Look, you have been cheated."
Long Wanda was also thinking, "But, is there any benefit for him to lie to us? Is it necessary to print this album to make a flower stone, just to make a joke with strangers? This is unlikely."
"Who knows what he thinks?" the little devil muttered, "You humans have too confusing thinking, and they don't look like good people anyway."
Fang Yi held the picture album that Ding Song gave him in his hand and handed it to Su Zijun, "Sect Master, you can take a look, I don't think there is any falsehood. I really can't think of the reason why he lied to me."
"You are rubbings." Su Zijun took them into his hand and knew at a glance that it was not the original one from the auction house. "Most of the items are right, but you have one more item in your rubbings. This black jade sword is what you want to shoot."
A small jade sword with no explanation, and the seller doesn't know what it is. According to convention, the item must be approved before it is on sale. In other words, even the auction house did not understand what it is. The starting price is 1,000 high-quality spirit stones, and there are probably no competitors.
"It is possible that this lot picture album was just updated in the past ten days, which means that someone has added lots in the past ten days." Su Zijun closed the picture album and said, "This is not new. If it weren't for the change of the rules, your sword-controlling technique would have to be used for identification. Then the auction house selectively picked out some of the items to print them into the book. However, there are few reprinting the picture album for the temporarily added lots, which is a bit strange."
"What's strange about this?" Su Zimao seemed to understand the key point. "A thing that you can't figure out is a thousand spirit stones. This is a psychological hint to the cultivators participating in the auction in advance. This thing is valuable."
"It seems... it makes some sense." Long Wanda nodded slightly in agreement as he listened to Su Zimao's analysis.
"I was cheated." said the little devil.
"No." Fang Yi glared at the little devil king, "You are good except you can't use your brain. Think about it, if Ding Song was a liar and made up a fictional item and added it to this album, why would it happen to be like this?"
The Su brothers were not aware of the two small swords, and Fang Yi did not intend to make it public, but the little devil understood the meaning of the words. Ding Song didn't know the appearance of this small sword. The jade-like small sword as big as a thumb is rare in Lianyun Sea, and coincidence is not so coincidental.
"Sect Master, the second island master."
Fang Yi clasped his fists at the two of them and said, "I don't know what's going on. When I saw this little sword, I felt that it must have something to do with me, so I wanted to take pictures of it as much as possible, hoping that the two island owners would be able to do it." Fang Yi's words were not an excuse. Since he got the two little swords, he had a feeling that this thing is very important to him. When he saw the picture album of the Black Jade Sword, he immediately decided to take pictures and get them at any cost.
"Brother Fang is so serious."
Su Zijun and Su Zimao looked at each other and said, "Brother Fang, we should have strongly supported you with your importance to our Buyi Island, but our spirit stones are indeed not enough. This time, in addition to promising to take a piece of no more than three hundred spirit stones for Brother Fang, I didn't think about taking any more photos. The seven or eight hundred top-grade spirit stones I carried were actually mostly worth the wealth of our Buyi Sect."
"Even if the income from the Fuyuan Pill is not enough, it is not enough for 1,500 top-grade spirit stones." Su Zimao also said, "Although we have brought a few spirit deer, we are just to promote the quality of the spirit deer tamed by our Buyi Sect, so we can't sell many spirit stones."
Fang Yi remained silent. He already knew some of the rules of the auction. The final sale of the goods would have to wait until the auction was completely over before he could get the spirit stone. It was too late.
"Or..." Su Zimao paused, "I'll go to Hunyuan Sect to have a look. Our two families are quite friendly. I'll go and see if I can borrow hundreds of spiritual stones from them first."
"No need." Fang Yi said, "I am sure to win the Black Jade Sword. One thousand five hundred spirit stones may not be enough. I will find a way to do the spirit stones. Second Island Master, please take us to the Free Market."
"Wait." Su Zijun gritted her teeth and took out a storage bag and handed it to Fang Yi. "Brother Fang, here are 600 top-grade spirit stones. If it is not enough, you can find a way to get it."
Fang Yi took the storage bag and weighed it, then put it away, and smiled, "Then I'm not polite. When I return to Buyi Island, I will deduct it from my share."
"Brother Fang, if you can't think of a solution, you can tell us three days later." Su Zimao said, "No matter what, at least you can get enough price to start the auction. There is no explanation for that thing, and there is a high chance that no one will bid."
"Okay, the sect leader and the second island master are intent." Fang Yi also thought that the possibility of Su Zimao's words was very great, but he was too concerned that he thought about preparing enough spirit stones.
"The little sword and the thunder spirit bead we discovered together, it took only how long before you saw another small sword. Why is there no fragments of the thunder spirit bead auctioned?" The little devil's voice sounded in Fang Yi's sea of consciousness. The little devil was still very responsible for such a secret matter.
"Okay, Juntian said that just a little bit of yours, as long as you have completely refined it, it will be enough for you to walk horizontally in the Lianyun Sea. You must know how to be content and be content to be content to be happy."
"I'm not a human either." The little devil sighed again, "Fang Yi, these thunder spirit bead fragments are too difficult to refine, and I don't know when they will be able to refine them all."
Fang Yi was speechless. He calculated how long it would take for him to walk horizontally in Lianyun Sea. He probably had to wait until the Nascent Soul Stage. It would probably be slower than the little devil's refining fragments of the Thunder Spirit Bead, probably several hundred years later.
The Free Market during the Foundation Establishment Period was really crowded. The auction was still four days away, and basically everyone who could come had arrived. Before the auction began, the Free Market was the most lively. Obviously, the shops in Tianxiao City that were lined with streets were not the places where ordinary cultivators should go, and this was their paradise.
--------
In Tianyuan Inn in the Jindan period, two men were drinking tea and chatting. One of them was playing with a black jade sword in his hand, which was the black jade sword that Fang Yi saw in the album.
These two people, one is Liu Qingshan and the other is Feng Yu.
"The ten-year shooting of Penglai Immortal Island is a grand event where cultivators from the entire Lianyun Sea gather together. Maybe there will be people who can break the secret of this little sword." Liu Qingshan said while playing with the black jade sword. "One thousand top-grade spirit stones, unless they are fools, no foundation-building cultivator can take pictures of this thing. Even if someone wants to try his luck, he will not bid for a very high price."
"Brother Liu's method is pretty good."
A small sword of the same size appeared in Feng Yu's hand, but the color was red. "It's a pity that our cultivation is still shallow, otherwise I would have put this red jade sword at the Golden Dan auction to mark a high price. If I missed this time, I would have to wait for another ten years."
"I advise you, life is important. I still have to thank this auction for changing the rules so that we will have the opportunity to take out this little sword and fish." Liu Qingshan said, "If it were like before, I wouldn't dare to take out this thing."
"It's also a blessing for Brother Liu, you are usually used to running errands with a subordinate in the Foundation Establishment Stage, otherwise you would miss this opportunity. I don't know what this thing is. We have been getting this little sword for seven years, but we don't know anything. It's really strange."
"That's why I decided it was a treasure." Liu Qingshan smiled, "But I really didn't expect that no one in the auction house could identify what this is, and even the grade could not be identified."
"Do you think it's possible that our two small swords are just part of them. We need to gather all the components to form a complete magic weapon?" Feng Yu played with the red jade small sword and kept thinking about it, suddenly remembering this possibility.
