Chapter 29: Obtaining the Sapphire Fruit (please read it! Collect it! Invest in it)
Chapter 29 Obtaining the Jade Fruit (please read it! Collect! Invest!)
Two days passed in the blink of an eye. That night, Lu Ya and Lu Dingbo were wearing black cloaks and walking on the road to Wuhua Tianbao Pavilion.
Along the way, Lu Ya saw many passers-by dressed similarly to them. He estimated that they were all monks planning to participate in the auction, and like them, they did not want to reveal their identities.
There are many people in Wuhuafang City, so it is always right to be cautious.
Following the flow of people, Lu Ya soon saw a splendid three-story building with a circular top and bottom, which was the famous Wuhua Tianbao Pavilion, where tonight's auction was held.
At this moment, there was a crowd of people outside Wuhua Tianbao Pavilion.
With great difficulty, Lu Ya relied on his success in physical training to lead Lu Dingbo to the door.
After painfully paying two low-grade spiritual stones, Lu Ya and Lu Dingbo successfully entered the auction house.
Compared to the lively scene outside the door, the auction hall seemed much quieter. The rows of seats were filled with monks participating in the auction. They all looked down quietly at the booklets in their hands. These were the items to be auctioned tonight. Table of contents.
After Lu Ya and the two found an empty seat and sat down, they picked up the auction catalog and looked through it.
The booklet was not big, and Lu Ya quickly flipped through it. Most of the book contained items needed by Qi-training monks, a small amount of second-level items, and the final item: three foundation-building pills.
But this does not mean that Wuhua Tianbao Pavilion is just perfunctory. The magic weapons, magic robes, formations, various types of elixirs, and precious elixirs and spiritual materials participating in the auction are everywhere, and they are all most suitable for Qi practicing monks. thing.
Lu Ya even saw a sapphire fruit. This fruit has a single effect, but all the monks cannot refuse it, just because its effect is to increase the life span by about two years after taking it.
Two years may not seem like a long time, but for a monk, it is enough to change many things.
"Clan leader, this jade fruit should be extremely suitable for Third Grandpa to use."
Lu Ya pointed to a green fruit painted on the booklet and whispered to Lu Dingbo.
Lu Dingbo nodded calmly, and then lowered his voice: "The first goal this time is the Foundation Establishment Pill, and the second is the Jade Fruit. If we get one of the two, we will leave immediately, and we must not stop at all."
"Hope everything goes well."
Lu Ya took a deep breath with caution in his eyes.
Not long after the two sat down, the auction began.
Wuhua Tianbao Pavilion is one of the largest chambers of commerce in the world of cultivation. Both the items participating in the auction and the people who preside over the auction are extraordinary.
For example, the middle-aged man with a big belly and a big belly wearing a gold-colored robe standing on the auction stage right now.
As soon as he appeared on the scene, he carried a powerful aura that swept across the entire auction site.
"Foundation-building monk!"
Lu Ya's pupils tightened. He didn't expect that an ordinary auction would be hosted by a foundation-building monk himself.
"Fellow Taoists, I have come from afar. I, Qian Youwei, am now the third-level shopkeeper of Wuhua Tianbao Pavilion. I will preside over tonight's auction."
Qian Youwei on the stage had a smile in his narrowed eyes. He looked more like a shrewd shop owner than a powerful foundation-building monk.
"Without further ado, tonight's auction officially begins."
Qian Youwei waved his generous palm and said crisply.
"Tonight's first auction item: a Foundation Establishment Pill!"
As soon as Qian Youwei finished speaking, the monks participating in the auction in the audience suddenly became excited, and the atmosphere was instantly aroused.
Lu Ya and Lu Dingbo looked at each other, both seeing the shock in each other's eyes.
This process obviously did not conform to the normal process of the auction, but no one present cared.
"It goes without saying what effect the Foundation Establishment Pill has. With it, you can expect great success. The starting price is one hundred and fifty medium-grade spiritual stones."
The appearance of the Foundation Establishment Pill caused a huge stir, and the bidding immediately became intense, with calls for price increases coming and going.
Lu Ya and Lu Dingbo also tried to bid twice, but the price was quickly surpassed and they had no choice but to give up.
After a fierce bidding, the first Foundation Establishment Pill tonight was finally won by a buyer in the private room on the second floor for the price of 270 medium-grade spiritual stones.
"Two hundred and seventy medium-grade spiritual stones, that's almost 30,000 low-grade spiritual stones. I'm afraid our entire Lu family's property combined doesn't even have 30,000 low-grade spiritual stones."
Lu Ya just had a feeling that the gap between people was sometimes so big that it was beyond words.
In the past three years, the Lu family has lived a very comfortable life. For this auction, they only managed to raise less than 200 medium-grade spiritual stones.
But here, just one pill for foundation building is more expensive than their entire Lu family combined.
‘No wonder the clan leader has always stayed in the Qi training stage. The Foundation Establishment Pill is really not something that ordinary people can afford. ’
Lu Ya thought silently in his heart.
The auction of the Foundation Establishment Pill ended, and the next auction continued. The prices were high and low, and there were constant bids. The atmosphere in the venue remained high.
During the period, in the middle of the auction, another Foundation Establishment Pill was auctioned. The transaction price was slightly lower than the first one, which was 245 medium-grade spiritual stones.
Not long after the auction of the second Foundation Establishment Pill ended, it was the turn of Lu Ya and the others to pay attention to another item, the Jade Fruit.
"The Green Jade Fruit is a first-class spiritual fruit. This fruit grows in a place with strong Yimu essence. After it matures, it must be stored in a century-old jade box, otherwise the essence will be lost and decades of time will be wiped out.
If Qi practitioners take it, it can prolong their life for two years, and it can also be used to remove hidden injuries."
Qian Youwei's voice echoed throughout the audience with the blessing of mana. After the introduction, he said: "The starting price is one hundred middle-grade spiritual stones, and each time the price is increased by one medium-grade spiritual stone!"
"One hundred and three!"
"One hundred and four!"
The bidding for the Jade Fruit was slightly deserted, with only a few people bidding.
It's no wonder that the fruit, which is only effective during the Qi training period, can only extend life for two years, but the price is as high as one hundred middle-grade spiritual stones.
Unless there are casual cultivators who particularly need life extension or important elders in the clan, no family would spend such a high price to extend the life of a Qi Practitioner. With so many resources, it is completely enough to cultivate a Qi Practitioner. Several monks who are in the late stage of Qi training.
Therefore, Lu Ya and the others only participated in two rounds of bidding and bought the jade fruit at the price of 137 medium-grade spiritual stones.
After the bidding ended, Lu Dingbo took Lu Ya to the backstage quickly. After carefully verifying that the fruit was correct, Lu Dingbo paid the money without stopping, and walked out of the secret door of the auction house with Lu Ya.
After going out, Lu Ya and Lu Dingbo quickly blended into the crowd on the street and hurried towards the city gate without stopping.
Now this thing is a hot potato. Although the secret door of Wuhua Tianbao Pavilion is concealed enough, it cannot be guaranteed to be completely effective. We can only return to the family quickly to avoid unnecessary trouble.
