Chapter 49 Cloud Auction
This invitation was exactly what the three of them wanted. Lu Dingbo pondered for a moment and asked aloud: "Shopkeeper Ji, I wonder if there is anything needed for foundation building at this auction?"
"Of course there are, but not only that, some rare items that are usually invisible or even in high demand will appear in the auctions organized by our owner. The price may be higher compared to the outside world, but it will definitely not disappoint."
Shopkeeper Ji said confidently.
You can tell at a glance that these guests are family monks, and there are only nine families with a foundation building in a hundred miles. Capturing any foundation building family will mean a steady stream of customers and resources in the future.
Besides, the three people in front of them had earned spiritual stones from their Yunjian Tower, so they definitely needed to spend them.
Spending money is not consumption anywhere, so why not spend money in their Yunjianlou, so that he can add a bit of heritage to the owner behind him.
Facing Shopkeeper Ji's invitation, Lu Ya suggested: "Why don't we just go and have a look, and participate in the bidding when we find someone we like? What do the two elders think?"
Lu Ya's statement made Lu Dinghai unable to refuse, and they nodded in agreement one after another.
Seeing the three people nodding, shopkeeper Ji showed a smile on his face, took out two jade tokens from his sleeves, handed them to Lu Dinghai and Lu Dinghai respectfully, and explained: "With these Yunjian jade tokens, seniors can participate in the auction." .”
Lu Ya reached out and took the jade token, then signaled to Shopkeeper Ji.
"You three, follow me."
After Shopkeeper Ji finished speaking, he turned around and walked out.
Lu Ya and the others followed him and continued walking back. After entering a house, they saw Shopkeeper Ji pressing a button on the mural, and a hidden secret passage appeared in front of everyone.
Shopkeeper Ji explained: "Three seniors, the auction is relatively hidden, please don't be offended."
Lu Ya and the clan leader looked at each other and wanted to walk into the secret passage.
But Lu Dingbo grabbed him, took him behind him, and took the lead into the secret passage.
After Lu Dingbo entered, Shopkeeper Ji immediately followed. Lu Ya and Lu Dinghai waited outside for a few moments before stepping inside.
There was darkness in the secret passage. After walking about fifty steps, a door appeared in front of everyone.
"Three seniors, the auction is here."
Shopkeeper Ji was about to push the door open, but was stopped by Lu Dingbo, with a cold look in his eyes.
"Shopkeeper Ji, do you want me to participate in the auction in such an upright manner?"
Perhaps he could hear the displeasure in his words. Shopkeeper Ji patted the back of his head gently and said, "Look at my memory. I forgot to tell the three seniors that the cloud auction held by our boss comes with its own clouds and mist." The formation can block the detection of spiritual consciousness, and everyone participating in the auction, even if they have perfect foundation building, cannot detect their strength through the cloud and mist formation."
After Shopkeeper Ji finished speaking, there was a little pride in his eyes.
When Lu Ya heard this, his eyes lit up.
There is something about this Yunjianlou.
Compared with the masks, black robes and the like he had seen in novels, this was much more upscale.
"In that case, let's go in."
After Lu Dinghai spoke, Shopkeeper Ji stepped forward and opened the door. Suddenly, clouds of mist poured out from the crack in the door and wrapped around the three of them.
Lu Ya stepped into the auction hall and his eyes went blank.
There were rolling clouds under his feet, and there was a faint mist around him. Above his head was a circle of twelve clam beads the size of a basketball, which were emitting bright white light at the moment, illuminating the entire space below like daylight.
The auction hall is circular in shape, with a huge high platform in the center and a circle of seats made of white jade surrounding it.
At this moment, most of the seats were filled with monks wrapped in clouds, walking around as if they were in the clouds.
Maybe the three of them came together, and Lu Ya found that he could look at the two clan leaders through the clouds and mist around them.
After a silent exchange, the three of them carefully chose a less crowded place to sit down.
The arrival of the three people attracted the attention of many monks, but after Lu Dinghai released the foundation-building aura, most of them looked away. Only a few people still took a few more looks with interest.
As time goes by, the empty seats in the auction room are gradually filled.
After waiting for more than half an hour, 90% of the seats at the auction were occupied by monks.
Lu Ya sat behind Lu Dinghai and looked around curiously.
There were less than a hundred monks present to participate in the auction. Except for six monks who obviously had the pressure of foundation building, the rest were like him, wrapped in clouds and unable to see their cultivation.
Lu Ya also tried to release his breath quietly, but it was completely blocked by the clouds around him and could not leak out at all.
"Fellow Taoists, please wait. This cloud auction has officially begun."
"Without further ado, the first lot in this auction is a book called "Blood Refining Magic Weapon" which cannot be clearly identified. It describes in detail how monks use other people's blood and essence to refine magic weapons, so that the monks and the magic weapons can communicate with each other. A method that greatly enhances the power of magic weapons."
"The starting price is one hundred medium-grade spiritual stones."
After the words fell, there was silence in the auction hall.
The others may have been accustomed to it, but Lu Ya and the three of them swallowed their saliva and their hearts beat faster.
"Blood Refining Magic Weapon" is not evil at all. You can tell at a glance that it is produced by the Blood Refining Sect. This Yunjian Auction actually dares to openly bring out such a thing. It simply does not take the Blood Refining Sect seriously.
If the Blood Refining Sect knew about it, everyone present would have to be crushed to ashes.
But the thing is really a good thing. It goes without saying how important the magic weapon is to the monks. It can strengthen the power of the magic weapon and achieve a mind-to-heart connection similar to the magic weapon. It is really valuable.
If it were at a regular auction, the price would definitely be out of reach.
If the Lu family masters this technique, the combat power of the Lu family members will surely increase exponentially in the future.
However, at this moment the three of them could only look forward and sigh.
Just because everyone in the venue was bidding one after another, the price was higher than the last, and soon it exceeded 300 pieces of mid-grade spiritual stones.
Lu Ya looked at the people who kept bidding and shook his head secretly, "It's so crazy. I have a life to buy it, but I don't know if there is a life flower."
In the end, this "Blood Refining Magic Weapon" was bought for 350 medium-grade spiritual stones.
Well, this price easily exceeds their Lu's annual output.
The Lu family is still planning carefully for a low-grade spiritual stone, while others have spent a lot of money without showing any signs of distress.
“People are more infuriating than others.”
Lu Ya sighed lightly. He originally thought that with these more than 300 middle-grade spiritual stones, he would be very wealthy, but he didn't expect that he would still be at the bottom.
At this stage, he is still steadily improving his cultivation and combat power. As for the spiritual stones and so on, they are only external things. They will be needed when he gains strength.
In the next half hour, items that were rarely seen in the outside world appeared one after another and were auctioned one by one.
Lu Ya could only look at it and drool.
"The next auction item is a spell, a second-level elementary spell, the "Shocking Wind Curse" which is famous for its speed and power. The most important thing is that this is a spell that can be learned by monks in the late stage of Qi training. Spells.
With it, it means that it has a certain foundation-building level of lethality. This purchase also comes with a foundation-building perfect monk who personally teaches the Shocking Wind Curse once. "
"The starting price is fifty mid-grade spiritual stones!"
