Chapter 803 Long Ziyun, the trade fair begins (asking for monthly tickets)
Seeing the true face of the woman in white, Song Qingming secretly sighed at the coincidences in the world. He didn't expect that this woman in white was "Shen Yun" who had participated in the "Fenglei Island" secret realm with him a few years ago in the "Tianhai Xiuxianjie".
In the "Fenglei Palace" that year, this woman had a fight with Qiu Wuxin for the "Thunder Infant Fruit" and was the only one who saw Song Qingming kill Qiu Wuxin.
Later, the two parted ways. After coming out of the "Fenglei Palace", Song Qingming quickly teleported away from the "Fenglei Island" to avoid the pursuit of the "Luomaeng Valley" cultivators.
Since then, he has never seen "Shen Yun" and her three companions again.
After not seeing each other for many years, "Shen Yun"'s cultivation has also broken through to the seventh level of Jindan, and like Song Qingming, she has become a late Jindan cultivator.
Song Qingming never expected that he would meet her by chance when selling spiritual objects in "Tianxin City".
Thinking that they met this time, it was he who took the initiative to come to him, Song Qingming couldn't help but reveal a slightly embarrassed smile.
Seeing that Song Qingming had remembered who he was, "Shen Yun" smiled and poured a cup of spiritual tea and placed it on the table beside him, and then continued to explain:
"Don't feel strange, fellow Daoist, I am originally a cultivator from Lei Yuanhai, and this Qingxin Pavilion is the property of the sect to which I belong.
At the beginning, I went to Donghuang Xianzhou just to travel and purchase some spiritual objects I needed. I happened to hear about the secret realm of Fenglei Island, so I went there out of curiosity to participate.
It's a pity that we are not as skilled as others. After a fight with the people of Luofeng Valley, all the benefits were taken away by fellow Daoist. It's really a bit ashamed.
Fellow Daoist Jin, not only did he get so many benefits that day, but he also caused us to be hunted down by the people of Luofeng Valley.
If it weren't for our good luck, we would have escaped from Tianhai Xiu by chance. Immortal world, I am afraid that I will not see you again this time. "
Hearing the complaints from "Shen Yun", Song Qingming's face was unmoved, and he did not go forward to take the spiritual tea that the other party specially poured for him. He directly changed the subject and said:
"I am really unaware of what you said, I hope you can forgive me.
The main purpose of my coming to your store today is to sell these spiritual objects, and I don't have much time to reminisce with you.
If your store likes these things, you can give me a price. If not, I will find another store to exchange spiritual stones. I can only visit you another day. "
After saying that, Song Qingming put away the magic weapons in front of him and was ready to turn around and leave here at any time.
In the beginning, Song Qingming came to "Qingxin Pavilion" just to find a safer and more secure place to sell those spiritual objects on his body that were not easy to see in the light.
But now that he had bumped into "Shen Yun", Song Qingming, who didn't want to attract attention, didn't want to trade with him for a while, so he wanted to leave here and sell the spiritual objects in his hand somewhere else.
Anyway, there were still a few months before the trade fair, so he was not in a hurry.
Just as Song Qingming turned and walked to the door of the private room, he heard the voice of "Shen Yun" again, which made him stop on his own initiative.
"It is a fate that I am fortunate to meet you today. How about you sit down and have a cup of spiritual tea first?
Although Tianxin City is big, the trade fair is about to be held, and it is also the most crowded time. If you sell too many high-level spiritual objects outside, it may be difficult to keep it absolutely hidden.
I can promise you first that no matter what spiritual objects you want to sell today, our store can buy them directly, and we can also guarantee that we will never let outsiders know that these things are related to you."
Hearing what "Shen Yun" said, Song Qingming hesitated for a moment, but still turned around and looked at the other party.
"Oh! Daoyou, are you sure you can buy everything I have? I only want spirit stones, and I won't accept other spirit objects as collateral!"
"Don't worry, Daoyou. In order to cope with this trade fair, we just mobilized a lot of spirit stones from the sect a few days ago.
If Daoyou comes later, I can't say anything, but now in the whole Tianxin City, there are probably few shops that can afford spirit stones to buy spirit objects that can compare with our Qingxin Pavilion."
"Shen Yun" said, with a hint of confidence on his face, and smiled and stretched out his hand to Song Qingming, inviting him to come over for tea.
Seeing this, Song Qingming smiled slightly, then took the initiative to come over, picked up the teacup on the table and said:
"I remember that day, Daoyou said that your surname seemed to be Shen. How come I just heard someone call you Elder Long? Could it be that I remembered it wrong?"
"Haha! When we cultivators go out, we naturally cannot easily reveal our real names to others. I think Daoyou Jin should understand this!
But since I want to do business with Daoyou, I shouldn't continue to hide this matter.
My real name is Long Ziyun, and I am the Jindan Elder of Qinglong Sect of Xuanyun Island. I hope Daoyou Jin will give me more advice." After saying that, Long Ziyun stood up and bowed to Song Qingming.
Seeing that the other party had been frank with him, Song Qingming did not stand aside with him. After putting down the teacup in his hand, he immediately removed the cover on his face, stood up and bowed to Long Ziyun in return.
The two smiled at each other, and it was considered a new acquaintance.
——
More than half an hour later, as night fell, lanterns began to light up the streets, decorating the night with colorful lights.
At night, the "Qingxin Pavilion" which was still open had more people coming in and out than during the day, which made this relatively remote store more popular.
Not long after, a man in green came down from the second floor of "Qingxin Pavilion".
He just glanced at the people who were buying spiritual objects in the hall, and then strode out and merged into the crowd coming and going on the street.
It was not until he left "Qingxin Pavilion" for a distance that Song Qingming found a relatively instant restaurant on the street. Then, he was led by the waiter to a private room and ordered a table of delicious dishes.
"Sir, please eat first. I will wait outside the door. Just tell me if you have anything."
After bringing the last pot of spiritual wine, the waiter immediately nodded respectfully to Song Qingming, and then turned and left the private room.
After the waiter closed the door for him, Song Qingming did not rush to taste the delicious spiritual food on the table in front of him, but turned around and took out two spiritual stone bags from his waist and placed them in front of him.
With a wave of Song Qingming's hand, the spiritual stone bag was instantly opened, revealing many glittering and exquisite spiritual stones inside.
In this transaction with Long Ziyun, Song Qingming sold all the magic weapons and spiritual medicines he brought with him to "Qingxin Pavilion" at one time.
However, Long Ziyun was indeed a very shrewd businessman. She knew that Song Qingming did not want people to know the origin of these spiritual objects, and was anxious to get rid of them and exchange them for spiritual stones.
Therefore, Long Ziyun also suppressed Song Qingming a lot in terms of price, forcing him to make concessions and give up a lot of profits to "Qingxin Pavilion".
However, for Song Qingming, being able to sell all the spiritual objects he brought with him at one time can help him avoid potential risks. Even if he gave up some profits to Long Ziyun, he was willing to accept it.
Fortunately, the strength of "Qingxin Pavilion" did not disappoint Song Qingming.
Long Ziyun not only bought all the spiritual objects that Song Qingming took out, but also remembered the high-level spiritual objects that Song Qingming got from Qiu Wuxin that day.
When he heard that the other party asked about the "White Lion Puppet Beast" and "Lihuo Red Heart Sword" on him, Song Qingming did not think much and immediately refused decisively, which dispelled Long Ziyun's thoughts.
These high-level spiritual objects can improve Song Qingming's combat power and are very useful to him. Naturally, he would not easily give them to others.
Seeing that Song Qingming did not want to sell these spiritual objects, Long Ziyun, who had tried it, sighed with some regret, but she still did not give up.
When Song Qingming completed the transaction and took it away, she also specially informed Song Qingming of a shop located in Tianhai Xiuxianjie.
As long as Song Qingming changes his mind and wants to sell these spiritual objects in the future, he can go there. She can help arrange the disposal of these things whose origins are not good for others.
Although the "Qinglong Sect" where Long Ziyun is located is not a top-level Nascent Soul Sect in the "Leiyuan Sea" cultivation world, its business is very large. There are shops controlled by this sect in many places in the "Leiyuan Sea" cultivation world.
Not only that, the "Qinglong Sect" is also one of the core members of a large business alliance in Leiyuan Sea, and the influence of this business alliance has even extended to other cultivation worlds such as "Donghuang Xianzhou".
For this transaction, Song Qingming disposed of all the magic weapons that he had accumulated and saved over the years, and brought out hundreds of thousands of spiritual stones from the "Qingxin Pavilion" for this purpose.
Looking at the thousands of medium-grade spiritual stones of different colors neatly arranged in the spiritual stone bag in front of him, Song Qingming couldn't help but show a satisfied smile on his face at this moment.
After successfully obtaining so many spirit stones, plus the hundreds of thousands of spirit stones he originally brought, Song Qingming now has nearly 300,000 spirit stones on him.
So many spirit stones are enough for him to buy what he wants at the next "Tianxin City" trade fair.
After successfully exchanging all the spiritual objects in his hands for spirit stones, Song Qingming did not go out again in the following days, and stayed in the rented cave and waited quietly.
Finally, more than two months later, with the official arrival of the "Tianxin City" trade fair, Song Qingming took Song Yuanhao and others out of the cave, and followed the "Xiaoyao Sect" to the trade fair site at the foot of the mountain.
Compared with more than two months ago, now with the opening of the trade fair, the number of cultivators in "Tianxin City" has almost doubled again.
Even if it is conservatively estimated, the number of high-level cultivators above the Jindan level who came to participate in the trade fair this time is probably no less than a thousand.
In such a place that is already crowded with high-level cultivators, Song Qingming and other Jindan cultivators who are usually high and mighty have already become inconspicuous in the crowd.
Only when a few Yuanying cultivators such as Bai Yuxian appeared in the air of "Tianxin City" would they attract the attention of the surrounding cultivators and make everyone start to guess the identity of the visitors.
Because the trade fair is held every hundred years, "Tianxin City" has also carefully built a huge palace in the city that can accommodate tens of thousands of people at the same time, which is specially used for holding the trade fair.
There are four entrances around the palace for cultivators to enter and exit, and there are senior cultivators above Jindan sitting in to check and verify the identities of the cultivators to prevent someone from forcibly entering the trade fair to cause trouble.
Whether it was the low-level foundation building and Qi refining cultivators, or the high-level Jindan and Yuanying cultivators such as Song Qingming, when they arrived at the trading conference, everyone lined up and entered in turn, and no one dared to break the rules here.
According to reliable rumors, the "Tianxin City" trading conference that shocked the entire Leiyuan Sea cultivation world was led by the Liuyun Sect, which is known as the first sect of "Leiyuan Sea".
This well-known sect in the entire "Leiyuan Sea" cultivation world not only has dozens of Yuanying cultivators with profound cultivation, but also the legendary Huashen cultivator.
During the entire "Tianxin City" trading conference, the Huashen ancestor of "Liuyun Sect" will also come and sit in Tianxin City in person.
It is precisely because they know that there is a Huashen ancestor sitting in the city that the cultivators participating in the trading conference dare not mess around.
Similar to other trade fairs Song Qingming had participated in, the "Tianxin City" trade fair was also divided into two places, the inner city and the outer city.
The inner city was an auction only for cultivators above the Jindan level, while the outer city was a trade fair where all cultivators could directly participate.
The rules of the outer city were relatively simple. In addition to the various merchants in "Tianxin City", all cultivators participating in the fair could rent a stall to sell their spiritual objects.
But no matter who was buying or selling the spiritual objects, the price must first be approved by the cultivator who managed the venue, and it was not allowed to set the price privately to deceive the cultivators who bought the spiritual objects.
If there were some rare spiritual objects whose prices were difficult to determine, they would be authenticated by the cultivators at the fair and sent to the small auction table in the middle of the fair, so that all cultivators could bid fairly for the spiritual objects.
On the inner city side, the rules were more complicated. Not only did it require the cultivators who entered and left to have a cultivation level above the Jindan level, but the spiritual stones each person carried could not be less than 30,000.
In order to protect the personal information of the auctioneers and prevent people from making trouble on the spot, all the monks who enter the auction site will be arranged separately in a special private room that can isolate the monks' spiritual consciousness.
Even people who come together cannot sit in the same private room at the same time.
When participating in the auction of spiritual objects, the monks do not need to bid in person in the venue, just let someone write the price and raise a sign to indicate.
The advantage of this is that when bidding for spiritual objects, everyone basically does not know who the opponent is, and there will be no conflict afterwards.
For some independent cultivators who come alone, there can be a lot of extra security, and they can also bid with confidence to compete for the spiritual objects they want.
Although they cannot sit together, there are still ways for those monks who come together to communicate with their companions.
The auction conference has specially arranged a special teleportation array in each private room that can be used for communication at any time. If fellow monks want to borrow spiritual stones or avoid competition between companions, these things can be done.
The entire inner city auction is divided into two steps. The first half month is the time for the organizers of the "Tianxin City" trading conference to prepare various auction spiritual objects.
If the monks participating in the trading conference have any spiritual objects that they want to take out for public auction, as long as they have been identified and confirmed that there is no problem with the quality and origin, they can also directly hand them over to the auction for auction.
However, once the spiritual object is successfully auctioned, regardless of the profit or loss, the auctioneer must take 10% of the spiritual stones as profit.
Half a month after the public auction is over, it is the free trading time for all monks participating in the auction.
At this time, there are no longer so many rules and restrictions. All monks can freely go on stage and purchase or exchange various spiritual objects they need.
During this period, the organizers of the auction will only maintain order at the venue and will not interfere with any transactions between monks.
But similarly, even if the spiritual objects traded during this period have quality problems afterwards, the organizers of the auction will not bear any responsibility. All monks participating in the transaction must open their eyes.
After verifying their identities and entering the "Tianxin City" trading conference, Song Qingming told them to find the spiritual objects they needed in the outer city because they could not bring Song Yuanhao and others into the inner city.
Then, Song Qingming took out 20,000 spiritual stones from his body and distributed them to Song Yuanhao and others, asking them to look for them carefully. If they encountered spiritual objects that were useful to the family, they should not miss them easily.
The "Tianxin City" trading conference was so large that even in the outer city, there must be many auxiliary medicinal materials that were useful for cultivators to build their foundation or form pills.
After explaining it to Song Yuanhao and others, Song Qingming followed Bai Yuxian and others and entered the inner city where the auction was held.
At the door, each person handed in a few hundred spiritual stones, and Song Qingming and others were quickly taken into a separate private room by the low-level cultivators who were responsible for leading the venue.
"Greetings, senior!"
As soon as they entered the door, two maids who were only in the Qi Refining Stage took the initiative to greet Song Qingming, bowed respectfully and saluted him.
Seeing this, Song Qingming immediately smiled and nodded, and then followed the two people to the front and sat down at a window where he could see the auction site below.
The entire front of the private room was completely covered by a formation. From inside the private room, one could clearly see every move of the venue below, but the cultivators outside could not see the situation in each private room at all.
After the maid beside him connected the private rooms where the "Xiaoyao Sect" people were with the sound transmission formation, Song Qingming soon heard the voice of Zhang Tieyang from a nearby private room.
“This auction is really secretive, and we are not even allowed to see each other.
Zhang came here in a hurry and didn't bring many spiritual stones with him. If he encounters something good later, I hope all the senior brothers and sisters can help support some spiritual stones. I will definitely not forget the great kindness when I return to the sect in the future. "
After hearing what Zhang Tieyang said, Chu Fengping immediately smiled and replied: "Junior Brother Zhang, don't worry, my fellow disciples should help each other.
However, at such a large-scale trade fair, there will definitely be a lot of good things. Junior brother, don't be too anxious for a while.
To avoid being dazzled all at once, you will spend all your spiritual stones and miss greater opportunities. "
"Haha! What Senior Brother Chu said is that we have a rare opportunity to participate in such a large-scale trade fair, so naturally we cannot miss the opportunity easily."
".."
Zhang Tieyang came to the trade fair this time and did not bring many spiritual stones. Song Qingming and others had already known about these.
Hearing his voice asking for help in advance when he came up, Song Qingming couldn't help but sigh inwardly, this guy is really very thick-skinned.
Everyone has worked hard to come to "Lei Yuanhai" to participate in such a large-scale trade fair. No matter who they are, they must have something they want to buy. How can they easily lend their spiritual stones to others.
Chu Fengping was polite to him, but when he really needed the spirit stone later, it would be better if he didn't ask Zhang Tieyang to borrow the spirit stone.
While several people from the "Xiaoyao Sect" were chatting with each other, as the monks who came to participate in the auction continued to pour in, the time for the auction below came soon.
Not long after, under the gaze of everyone, four monks in different attires, all with cultivation levels above the Golden Core realm, walked onto the stage where everyone was watching.
One of the white-haired old men in the late Jindan stage smiled and bowed to everyone, then cleared his throat and said loudly:
"Fellow Taoists, the four of us are the ones who are bidding for the spiritual objects at this auction. We will take turns showing the auctioned spiritual objects to everyone later. If you are interested, just raise your placard and bid.
Everyone must be aware of the rules of the auction by now, so we won’t go into details.
Next, please take a look at the first auction item, the third-level magic weapon, Ziyun Banner!
This flag is a rare third-level high-grade defensive magic weapon. It also contains the spirit of a demon king. It is especially suitable for Taoists who practice fire-attribute skills. I hope all Taoists will not miss it.
The base price of this item is 20,000 spirit stones, and each increase in price must not be less than 1,000 spirit stones. "
"The first spiritual object is actually a third-level high-grade defensive magic weapon. This trade fair is really extraordinary.
It's a pity that we are not practicing fire attribute kung fu. It seems that this thing can only be left to Senior Brother Chu to fight for. Zhang Mou would like to congratulate Senior Brother in advance. "
"Haha! Thank you, Junior Brother Zhang, for reminding me. This thing is indeed hard for me to refuse, but it is hard to say whether it can be taken down in a place like this. Junior Brother, please don't praise me like this."
Seeing the purple flag flag magic weapon taken out by the white-haired old man, Zhang Tieyang's exclamation immediately came from the sound transmission array.
After the two said a few words, Chu Fengping did not surprise everyone and took the initiative to ask the people around him to raise placards to participate in the quotation.
Not only them, but even Song Qingming, who is not majoring in fire-attribute kung fu, was also a little moved when he saw this rare third-level high-grade defensive magic weapon on the stage.
However, since Chu Fengping had already participated in the competition for this item, Song Qingming had no intention of making another offer.
After all, although this third-level high-grade magic weapon is good, it is not a spiritual object that Song Qingming must fight for when he comes to participate in the trade fair. (End of chapter)
