It was said to be a private trading meeting, but Liu Jing took Luo Hong to the largest auction house in Fang City. At this time, there were many immortal cultivators entering and leaving the takeout shop, so there was no privacy at all.
Perhaps seeing Luo Hong's doubts, Liu Jing gave him a rough explanation.
The original initiator of the trade fair was a late-stage foundation-building monk who made great friends in the Yellow Maple Valley. His original intention was just to make it easier for his friends to barter with each other, and There is no rule that must be kept secret.
This person’s friends are not only spread across the seven sects of the Yue Kingdom, but also have old acquaintances in the neighboring Yuanwu Kingdom, so the chance of good things appearing at the trade fair is much greater than in an ordinary auction house.
His friends benefited from it and would often bring their friends with them the next time they came. In this way, several rounds of transactions would be carried out, and the scale had reached a level that was impossible to hide.
So, this person simply put the trade fair on the table and entrusted it to the auction house to hold it. He only needed to take the stage to host it every time, and he could get a lot of profits.
Foundation-building cultivation is the basic requirement for entering the auction house during the trade fair, but each foundation-building monk can bring one person inside.
Liu Jing and Luo Hong were led to an elegant seat by the mortal maid in the auction house and sat down. Then they were served spiritual tea and stood quietly beside them.
Luo Hong looked around and saw that the surroundings were all similar seats, forming a fan shape around a high platform in the center.
"There are a lot more people this year."
Liu Jingmo counted the foundation-building immortal cultivators who were seated. So far, there were nearly a hundred people, 40% of whom were from Yellow Maple Valley. Disciple, Huang overwhelmingly occupied a piece of territory.
Hearing the displeasure in Liu Jing's tone, Luo Hong wisely did not answer.
After drinking tea in silence for a while, the trade fair finally started.
The door of the venue was closed, and runes lit up on the surrounding walls, which turned on a powerful power. Not a bad formation.
Immediately, a late-stage foundation-building immortal cultivator with a kind face and a cheerful voice stepped onto the stage.
After taking the stage, he skillfully joked with a few old friends to liven up the atmosphere of the venue, and then got down to business.
“There are many new faces this year, but our rules remain unchanged. We will conduct the spiritual stone trading part in the form of auction first, and then let the Taoist friends who need to barter take the stage. ”
“Without further ado, let’s get started. The first item to be auctioned is the top-notch magical weapon Qingyin Sword...”
Luo Hong put down her teacup and rubbed her nose. , this opening statement is really too interesting.
"Master Nephew Luo, aren't you in need of an offensive magic weapon? This Qingyin Sword is just suitable for the water movement technique you practice. Using it can greatly increase its power. Why not try to bid? ”
Liu Jing’s suggestion was entirely for Luo Hong’s sake. Although the Qingyin Sword is a top-level magic weapon, its aura is not a top-level magic weapon.
Most of the foundation-building monks present are notBeing able to bid is a good opportunity for Luo Hong and the accompanying Qi Refining Stage monks to take action.
"Thank you for reminding me, uncle, but I don't have many spiritual stones on my body. Rather than using them for brave and ruthless magical weapons, I would like to exchange them for some spiritual objects that can help with cultivation."
Luo Hong is currently only interested in the extremely fast air-control weapon, and nothing else is enough to seduce him to reveal his wealth.
"You are right, do whatever you want."
Although Liu Jing had a good impression of Luo Hong, he did not think that a cultivator with pseudo-spiritual roots could After successfully building the foundation, he felt that instead of spending his spiritual stones on elixirs, Luo Hong might as well buy one or two top-notch magic weapons so that they could be passed down to future generations.
However, seeing Luo Hong's determination, Liu Jing couldn't bear to attack him, so he didn't say anything.
After several rounds of bidding, Qingyin Sword fetched an inflated price of three hundred and fifty spiritual stones, which was paid by the female cultivator in the Qi Refining Stage of a pair of giant sword sect couples. In the bag.
The next two auction items were also top-level magic weapons, but this time they were the finest of the top-level magic weapons, so they were competed by monks in the foundation-building period. In the end, they both cost more than 600 spiritual stones. make a deal.
"The next auction item has some background. Please take a look. This gourd is called [Jade Dragon Gourd]. It is a treasure refined by monks in the alchemy stage using the spirit bones of level four water dragons. The space in it is not only It can hold a lake of water, and it has the magical power to refine ordinary water into spiritual water. This is a very rare treasure."
The old man with a good face is holding a medium-sized treasure, which is pure white and has only a small amount. A gourd decorated with stripes is displayed to the public.
However, before he could tell the starting price, there were voices of discord in the audience.
“Tch, can this be considered a treasure? Isn’t it just a small bottle that can be filled easily? Originally, the spirit bone of the fourth-level water dragon was considered a rare spiritual material. Once the monk's elixir fire is burned, even remaking it becomes a luxury. And the magical power to create spiritual water, can that thing really be eaten?"
A rude man from Spirit Beast Mountain spoke. Without any hesitation, he criticized the Jade Dragon Gourd as worthless.
However, what he said did make some sense, and most of the people nodded silently after listening.
"This fellow Taoist from Spirit Beast Mountain, please keep your words. You must know that the fellow Taoist who sells this treasure is in the venue. Be careful that trouble comes from your mouth!"
The kind-faced old man felt that the jade dragon gourd might not be sold if he messed around like this, so he warned in a cold voice.
"Ah, misunderstanding, I am not targeting that fellow Taoist. I am an outspoken person. To express my apology, I am willing to pay the starting price to buy this gourd."
The rude man from Spirit Beast Mountain had a cunning look in his eyes. The Jade Dragon Gourd was of great use to him.
His family has been cultivating a kind of spiritual insect called [Bone-eating Flying Ant] for generations. If he can feed it with the spiritual bones of the fourth-level water dragon, he will most likely have the opportunity to advance.
The kind-faced old man was stunned when he heard this, but he soon came to his senses and realized that he had been taken advantage of. The look he looked at the rude man suddenly became even more disgusting.
"Hmph, the starting price is three hundred spirit stones. Are you sure you want to buy it, fellow Taoist?"
"How can it be so high? Obviously the starting prices of the top-level magical weapons in front of us are only two hundred spirit stones! This It’s just a useless water hyacinth, how can it be higher than the starting price of a top-notch magic weapon?”
The rude man stared and wanted to bargain with the kind-hearted old man.
"The starting price of this treasure is three hundred spirit stones. You don't believe me."
The eyes of the kind-faced old man gradually became colder, and the tyrannical aura of his cultivation in the later stage of foundation building gradually slowed down. Pressing against the rude man who only had the initial cultivation level of foundation building.
"Okay, three hundred for three..."
The rude man pretended to be distressed and was about to make a deal with the kind-faced old man, but he heard a sudden sound from behind. Quotation.
"Wait a minute, this junior is willing to give 301 spiritual stones to share the worries of this senior."
Luo Hong's voice clearly reached every immortal cultivator in the venue In the ears, there was a scramble, and everyone became interested in the Jade Dragon Gourd again.
"Master Nephew Luo, you don't have to be like this!"
Liu Jing's expression was indescribable. He was moved with a bit of shame and angry with a bit of tangle.
