Chapter 91 Auction(1/2)
Meng Zhou also didn’t expect to meet Xu Wanzhen here again.
"Hey, I'm actually at the ninth level of Qi training."
Although Xu Wanzhen did some covering up, with Meng Zhou's sensitivity to aura, her little covering up had no effect at all.
At the beginning, when she came to the house for consultation under the recommendation of "Hu Cai", she was still at the eighth level of Qi cultivation. After not seeing each other for several months, her cultivation had improved a step further.
However, he was not too surprised by this.
Due to an occupational disease, the mana in her body was contaminated by a large amount of miscellaneous aura, and she was unable to improve her cultivation.
Before helping her adjust her breath, she had taken a lot of pills. Although most of the potency was lost, some of it was eventually deposited in her body.
Although the reasons are different from Yan Xiong, the results are similar.
It would be a matter of course for him to clear away the mixed aura in her body and return it to purity, so that her stagnant cultivation could be further advanced.
Meng Zhou followed Xu Wanzhen and the others, and along with the flow of people in front and behind, slowly passed through a corridor that was not too long, and entered an auction room that could accommodate hundreds of people.
"The seats for the Qi Practitioners are all on the first floor. They are seated in order from left to right, front to back."
A skinny old man stood on the high platform and greeted him. Upon hearing this, all the Qi Practitioners took their seats in a quiet and orderly manner.
Meng Zhou calmly adjusted his position in the crowd while walking, and when he took his seat, he happened to be next to Xu Wanzhen, adjacent to the two of them.
The two of them were communicating via voice all the way. Occasionally, the handsome man would let out a chuckle or two, while Xu Wanzhen would slightly twist his arm in annoyance, completely immersed in their own little fun.
He didn't even have the interest to take another look at Meng Zhou, who was unrelated to him.
After a while, the door behind him closed gently, and the originally noisy scene suddenly became quiet.
The old man on the high platform coughed lightly and said, "Okay, now the auction begins."
As he said that, he took out the first auction item.
Looking at him, he doesn't look like a professional auctioneer at all.
And this auction is not an ordinary one. There is no usual routine of warming up the auction with ordinary items first, then waiting for the atmosphere to heat up and then bringing out more attractive lots for the final harvest.
The first lot he took out was Wang Zha.
A milky-white jade bottle was placed on the stage, and he introduced it:
"Special third-level spiritual object, a piece of earth spirit marrow.
There are two main functions. One is to serve as a spiritual object for forming pills, improving the success rate of forming pills and improving the quality of the pills.
Second, as a special elixir, it can not only make up for the foundation damage caused by the failure of elixir formation, but also wash away the inferior and fake elixirs that have been formed, giving you the opportunity to form elixirs again."
After his simple introduction, the hundreds of Qi Practitioners sitting on the first floor all held their breaths, not even daring to take a breath. Even Xu Wanzhen, who was communicating through sound transmission, was no longer frivolous.
.
Because just after the old man introduced these things, the entire space was filled with various tyrannical auras, and they were colliding and competing with each other.
"I hope all my friends will give Wang a good deal. I made a mistake in forming the elixir not long ago, and only formed a fake elixir. This earth's spiritual essence..." A voice came from the third floor behind him.
But before he could finish speaking, a strange sarcasm came from the second floor: "What a big face..."
Seeing that a conflict between the bosses was about to break out, a crisp sound was heard. The old man on the high platform lightly tapped the table in front of him with a mallet, and the crisp sound immediately spread throughout the room.
The space spreads and the chaotic momentum is cleared away.
The entire space returned to a clean and clear state, and it was even cleaner than washing it with a cleansing charm.
"Don't be noisy, don't be vindictive, there is only one rule here, the one with the highest price gets it!
The starting price for the third-level spiritual essence is one hundred high-grade spiritual stones, and each increase in price must not be less than one high-grade spiritual stone!"
As soon as he said these words, everyone who had become a little confused became calm again.
Although the spiritual items are good, they are more expensive. Even if we exclude the many qi-training monks, there are only a few people who are truly qualified to participate in the competition.
Among them were the two people who had spoken out just now, but both of them were very rational in their bids, and they were not at all vindictive about the matter because of what had just happened.
In the end, this third-level special spiritual object fetched a high price of 247 high-grade spiritual stones.
Meng Zhou watched the whole process with cold eyes, until the old man knocked down the gavel in his hand. The spiritual creature had its owner, and he felt calm in his heart.
On the stage, the old man had handed over the first auction item to a waiter beside him, and he took out another object, a talisman that didn't look very famous from its appearance.
"The third-level spiritual talisman, the small moving talisman, can ignore all restrictions, shielding, and isolation methods below the fourth level, and randomly appear anywhere within a thousand miles.
The starting price is twenty high-grade spiritual stones, and each increase in price shall not be less than one high-grade spiritual stone."
There is no doubt that this is a talisman that can be used to escape in the presence of a pill. At a critical moment, this is almost an extra life.
This time there were many more people participating in the auction, and many foundations participated in the auction.
The final transaction price reached fifty-seven high-grade spiritual stones.
Then, the old man auctioned three small teleportation talismans in succession. The highest price reached 63 high-grade spiritual stones, while the fourth and final one also cost 53 high-grade spiritual stones.
Just when the foundation builders thought they had seen through the auction's trick and were looking forward to the fifth small teleportation talisman, the old man took out a new auction item.
"The second-level high-grade flying magic weapon Jueyun Shuttle, the starting price is ten high-grade spiritual stones, and each increase in price must not be less than one high-grade spiritual stone."
Many foundation-building monks who were still looking forward to the fifth small teleportation talisman sighed with regret, but many also joined in the competition for the new lot.
After that, a variety of second-order high-grade and second-order mid-grade magic weapons appeared one after another, as well as second-order high-grade and second-order mid-grade realm-breaking elixirs. The starting price also gradually dropped from the unit of upper-grade spiritual stones to the unit of mid-grade.
The unit is spirit stone.
In the past, it was good to have one or two lots that were attractive to Foundation-Building Monks in an auction.
But today, every item that the old man took out was very practical and attractive to the foundation-building monks, and it attracted fierce competition from a large number of foundation-building monks.
As for the disadvantages, the only disadvantage is that it is expensive. Under the fierce competition among everyone, no matter who wins in the end, they will feel joy and heartache at the same time.
Meng Zhou, like other qi-training monks, watched the whole process silently except with his eyes and ears.
Gradually, Meng Zhou had a strange feeling in his heart. This treasure auction hosted by Qingxuanzong was like an efficient harvest.
Starting from the fake elixir, from top to bottom, in the late stage of foundation building, the middle stage of foundation building, and the early stage of foundation building, no one escaped. The spiritual stones they raised for this auction were all squeezed out accurately.
Gradually, the harvesting sickle sank little by little towards their group of qi-training monks.
Although the spirit stones each of them carries are far from comparable to those fake elixir foundations, there are so many of them!
Sure enough, when the last second-level elixir, which was of great benefit to the monks in the early stages of foundation building, was sold at a high price, the old man took out another milky white jade bottle.
"I won't explain the efficacy of the high-quality foundation-building pill. It guarantees a 60% increase in the success rate of foundation-building. The starting price is 100 medium-grade spiritual stones, and each increase in price must not be less than one medium-grade spiritual stone."
"Finally it's our turn!" I don't know how many qi-training monks thought this in their hearts.
A ninth-level qi-training monk couldn't wait to shout: "150!"
Just add fifty percent to the starting price.
But before another Qi Practitioner could join the fight, a voice came from upstairs.
"200!"
"240!" Another foundation builder immediately gave a new quotation.
"..." Hearing that the foundation-building monks were leaving the field to join the fight, the Qi-training monks' eyes widened, and many of them cursed "shameless" in their hearts.
In the end, this exquisite foundation-building pill was sold at a terrifyingly high price of 450 pills.
"..." Meng Zhou, who thought he was fully prepared, could only stare at this scene.
He has already figured out that the auction will start with third-level spiritual objects.
After this intensive impact, everyone present's judgment on the value of spiritual stones became a little blurry, and they were unconsciously affected by the prices of the previous lots.
For example, Meng Zhou, before entering here, really felt that the nearly 30,000 low-grade spiritual stones in his body, that is, the nearly 300 medium-grade spiritual stones, were not a small number.
But now, he really felt shabby.
Then, the old man took out two more fine foundation-building pills, but without exception, they were all intercepted by the foundation-building monks. Even though the Qi-training monks had all kinds of thoughts in their minds, they could only stare.
Then, the old man took out another milky white jade bottle.
"Ordinary foundation-building pills, guaranteed to increase the success rate of foundation-building by 40%. The starting price is 100 medium-grade spiritual stones, and each increase in price must not be less than one medium-grade spiritual stone."
What made all the Qi Practitioners feel relieved was that this time, there was finally no Foundation Establishment to compete with them.
The first ordinary foundation-building pill was finally sold for 264 medium-grade spiritual stones after fierce competition among the ninth-level Qi practitioners.
Meng Zhou shook his head in his heart, although he could afford the price.
However, he prepared the Foundation Establishment Pill just to be prepared, and he really didn't think it was worth the price.
What caught his attention was that Xu Wanzhen next to her also called out the price twice. However, when the price exceeded two hundred, she hesitated and stopped.
Then, the old man shot six more ordinary foundation-building pills in succession.
The transaction prices are high and low, but overall, the prices are going down.
The transaction price of the sixth one was only 205.
This shows that everyone's sanity is returning little by little, and it can also be said that everyone's wallets are being squeezed more and more dry.
Not all of the monks who participated in the auction were as rich as Meng Zhou.
To be continued...
