Chapter 804 Mysterious Fire Golden Dragon Cauldron, Dragon Pattern Pill (Add one to ask for monthly
A third-level high-quality magic weapon is not something that can be easily purchased in the market in the world of immortal cultivation, not to mention that it is a relatively rare defensive magic weapon.
As soon as the first item of the auction, "Purple Cloud Banner", appeared, it immediately attracted competition from many cultivators below. The room with bids was full of people, and the atmosphere of the entire auction site instantly became hot.
"Twenty-three thousand spiritual stones!"
"Twenty-six thousand spiritual stones!"
"..."
"Okay! Guest No. 920 bids forty thousand spiritual stones. Is there any fellow Taoist who needs to bid? Please hurry up, otherwise this treasure will belong to this guest."
While the people from the "Xiaoyao Sect" were talking, the price of the "Purple Cloud Banner" had already risen to forty thousand spiritual stones. At this time, there were only a few cultivators who were still bidding on the spot.
In the market, the average price of a third-grade high-quality magic weapon is generally around 30,000 spirit stones, and a defensive magic weapon will be about 20% to 30% more expensive, which is close to 40,000 spirit stones.
However, this type of high-level magic weapon is generally in short supply on the market. When encountering a special magic weapon that matches the attributes of their own skills, there will always be many cultivators willing to spend more spirit stones for it.
Hearing the urging of the white-haired old man who presided over the auction below, Chu Fengping, who was reluctant to part with this magic weapon, hesitated for a moment and chose to raise the sign to continue competing.
"42,000 spirit stones!
Okay, guest No. 670 bids 42,000 spirit stones. Are there any fellow Taoists who bid higher?"
Seeing that Chu Fengping had offered a higher price, the white-haired old man's face suddenly showed a little more joy, and he asked the cultivators present again, looking forward to a higher price.
However, after the price of a third-grade high-quality defensive magic weapon exceeded 40,000 spirit stones, it was already a lot of premium.
There were not many people who were willing to continue to bid at this price, and only a few people like Chu Fengping who were really determined to get this treasure were left.
After hearing that Chu Fengping continued to raise the price, the remaining opponents thought for a moment and chose to give up this magic weapon decisively and gave the "Purple Cloud Banner" to Chu Fengping.
After all, the auction has just begun, and there will definitely be better spiritual objects in the future. It is not worth wasting too many spiritual stones to compete for this magic weapon.
"Since no one continues to bid, this magic weapon belongs to this Taoist friend. Congratulations to Taoist No. 670 for buying this item with 42,000 spiritual stones."
As the white-haired old man put away the magic weapon in his hand, it also announced the end of the competition for the first spiritual object. Chu Fengping, who spent more than 40,000 spiritual stones to win the "Purple Cloud Banner", finally breathed a sigh of relief on his nervous face.
The price of the "Purple Cloud Banner" has reached 42,000 spiritual stones, which has slightly exceeded Chu Fengping's initial estimate. If there are still people who continue to compete, then he will most likely have to give up.
At the same time, Song Qingming and others present also spoke out to congratulate Chu Fengping.
"Congratulations, Senior Brother Chu, you got what you wanted!"
"..."
Seeing that Chu Fengping was willing to spend 40,000 spiritual stones at one time to purchase a third-level top-grade magic weapon, Song Qingming was quite surprised.
Chu Fengping's current cultivation level is still at the sixth level of the Golden Core, and he has not yet broken through to the late Golden Core stage. He has been surpassed by Chen Xuanxin and Song Qingming who came later and left behind.
Logically speaking, for Chu Fengping now, the elixir that breaks through the cultivation level is definitely more important, and the magic weapon is secondary no matter how good it is.
Chu Fengping actually spent so many spirit stones at the beginning of the trade fair to purchase a third-level upper-grade defensive magic weapon. It can be seen that the spirit stones he brought to the trade fair this time must be very sufficient, so he was so generous right from the start.
After all, Chu Fengping is now the one with the highest level of alchemy in the entire sect. Since he broke through to the third-level middle-grade alchemist, he has been in charge of the sect's "Alchemy Pavilion".
In recent years, with his high-end alchemy skills and monopolizing all the resources of the entire sect's alchemy, Chu Fengping's speed of earning spirit stones will naturally be much faster than other elders in the sect.
Among the more than a dozen Jindan elders in the entire "Xiaoyao Sect", if you want to say who is the least short of spirit stones, it must be him.
After taking the magic weapon "Purple Cloud Banner", Chu Fengping was in a very happy mood. After dealing with the congratulations of everyone, he immediately walked out of his private room and hurried outside to complete the transaction.
As the first spiritual object was successfully auctioned, the white-haired old man also walked to the side and gave the middle position of the auction table to a middle-aged woman with a very delicate figure.
The middle-aged woman came forward and bowed to the cultivators present, then waved her hand and took out a green porcelain bottle from her body, from which she poured out a round pill emitting golden spiritual light.
"Feng Yuan Dan, a third-level intermediate spiritual pill, this pill can not only increase the cultivation speed of cultivators below the late Jindan stage by ten years, but also has a 10% chance of assisting in breaking through the bottleneck of cultivation.
For Jindan cultivators, whether it is to improve cultivation or to assist in breaking through the realm, this pill is an excellent spiritual object, please take a closer look.
The third-level intermediate Feng Yuan Dan, the reserve price is 8,000 spiritual stones, and each bid shall not be less than 500 spiritual stones. Fellow Taoists, please bid!"
Although compared with the first third-level upper-grade magic weapon "Purple Cloud Banner", the value of "Feng Yuan Dan" is obviously much lower.
But after hearing that this pill can help cultivators break through the realm, the scene quickly caused a sensation, and the number of cultivators who raised their placards to bid was no less than the first auction item "Purple Cloud Banner".
Compared with magic weapons, this kind of pill that improves cultivation is also an indispensable spiritual object for cultivators, especially for those Jindan cultivators who are stuck in the bottleneck and have not been able to break through. It is even more precious.
Yun Nishang and Zhang Tieyang, who came with them, couldn't help but raise their placards to participate in the competition for spiritual objects. Only Song Qingming and others with higher cultivation did not show much interest in this spiritual object.
Although the middle-aged woman who presided over the auction did not explain it directly, Song Qingming and others still understood it very well.
This kind of spiritual pill with only a third-level middle grade, even if it can help Jindan cultivators break through the bottleneck of cultivation, it is only useful for cultivators in the early or middle stages of Jindan.
For them, who want to use it to break through the bottleneck of the late Jindan, it will definitely not be of much use.
As time went by, the price of this "Wind Spirit Pill" gradually rose, soaring to 15,000 spiritual stones, and finally fell into the hands of a mysterious cultivator.
Zhang Tieyang and Yun Nishang wanted to get this pill very much.
But when the price of the "Wind Spirit Pill" exceeded 13,000 spiritual stones, the two people felt that the price of the pill was beyond their acceptable range, and gradually extinguished the idea of continuing to compete with others.
Although the pill spirit in front of them is good, it is not a very cost-effective thing to buy it forcibly because it exceeds its original value.
Moreover, consuming too many spiritual stones in the early stage will also affect the auction of subsequent spiritual objects. After all, everyone came to participate in the trade fair from hundreds of thousands of miles away, and the spiritual stones they brought with them are limited.
Fortunately, this auction has just begun, and there will definitely be many spiritual objects coming out later, so everyone does not need to rush to compete for spiritual objects.
The second auction item, "Wind Spirit Pill", had just been put away by the middle-aged woman. As the young scholar who was in charge of the third auction item came on stage, the monks on the scene quickly focused their attention on the auction.
The spiritual objects on the stage were auctioned off one after another by the monks, and Zhang Tieyang and others who were sitting in the private room above the venue were surprised one after another.
This "Tianxin City" trading conference is indeed a large-scale auction that can shake the entire "Leiyuan Sea" cultivation world.
All the spiritual objects that appeared in the hands of the monks at the auction were almost all high-level spiritual objects that were rarely seen in the market. None of them could be easily bought by Song Qingming and others outside.
After more than a dozen third-level spiritual objects were successfully auctioned, the white-haired old man who came on stage again took out a flying sword magic weapon with white spiritual light, which immediately made all the monks in the entire venue open their eyes wide.
"This is a 4th-level magic weapon!"
"Haha, I'm lucky enough to see a spiritual object of this level. This trip is really not in vain!"
"..."
The flying sword magic weapon in the hands of the white-haired old man, the spiritual light and pressure emanating from it, have far exceeded the scope of a 3rd-level magic weapon.
Song Qingming could tell at a glance that this thing was a rare high-level magic weapon of the 4th-level lower grade.
Although he had long known that this kind of auction that could attract many Nascent Soul cultivators would definitely have 4th-level spiritual objects, Song Qingming couldn't help showing a little excitement when he saw this white flying sword in front of him.
Unexpectedly, this level of rare spiritual objects was actually taken out by the organizer of the trade fair on the first day. It seems that there will be a lot of good things at this auction.
Like Song Qingming, several other "Xiaoyao Sect" companions around him were also very excited when they saw this 4th-level flying sword magic weapon.
Even Bai Yuxian, who had not spoken much since entering the auction, finally spoke out his first order at this moment.
"This item is of little use to me. Xuanxin, you can try to make an offer. If you don't have enough spiritual stones, you can come to me to get some to make up for it."
"Thank you, Uncle Bai!"
Hearing Bai Yuxian's support, Chen Xuanxin, who had long been interested in this spiritual object, hurriedly thanked him with a happy face.
Chen Xuanxin has been focusing on improving his cultivation speed over the years. Although his cultivation has already broken through to the ninth level of the Golden Core, he has never had the opportunity to add a fourth-level magic weapon to himself.
This time, in addition to the infant-forming spiritual object, what Chen Xuanxin wants most at the auction is a fourth-level flying sword that can improve his current combat power.
After showing the fourth-level flying sword magic weapon in his hand to everyone, the white-haired old man slowly took it back and said loudly to all the cultivators on the scene:
"This fourth-level low-grade magic weapon is called: Green Water Sword. It is made of jasper coral that has grown on the seabed for thousands of years. If you like it, fellow Taoists and seniors, don't miss it easily.
The base price of this sword is 100,000 spirit stones. Each increase in price must not be less than 2,000 spirit stones. Please raise your placards to bid!"
"One hundred and two thousand spirit stones, one hundred and five thousand spirit stones, one hundred and seven thousand spirit stones..."
As the white-haired old man finished speaking, the cultivators on the scene immediately started a new round of bidding.
However, this kind of fourth-level magic weapon can only be used after at least the cultivation to the late Jindan stage, so there are not as many people who can participate in the competition on the scene as before.
"One hundred and eighty thousand spirit stones, one hundred and thirty thousand spirit stones, is there any higher offer..."
As the monks on the scene offered prices step by step, the price of this fourth-level magic weapon was quickly raised to 130,000 spirit stones, which also shocked Song Qingming, who was watching from the audience.
In recent years, although Song Qingming has participated in many trading auctions, he has never seen anyone trading magic weapons above the fourth level. The price of this level of spiritual objects has always been a simple estimate in his mind.
In Song Qingming's opinion, this "Green Water Sword" can only be regarded as a fourth-level magic weapon of relatively ordinary quality among the fourth-level lower-grade magic weapons. It is already good if its spirit stone price can be auctioned for more than 120,000.
Unexpectedly, the price of this "Green Water Sword" that appeared at the auction actually soared to 140,000 spirit stones before it finally fell into the hands of a mysterious monk.
Although Chen Xuanxin brought a lot of spirit stones this time, after getting the support of Bai Yuxian, the spirit stones on his body were still a lot less than this magic weapon, so he could only miss this spiritual object with some regret.
Seeing the "Green Water Sword" in the hands of the white-haired old man, which was finally sold at a high price of 140,000 spirit stones, Song Qingming was also a little shocked at this moment.
He didn't expect that a fourth-level low-grade magic weapon of ordinary quality could be sold at such a high price in such a place, which really surprised him.
He had several fourth-level magic weapons on him, including the "Green Jade Bottle", and their quality was not inferior to the "Green Water Sword" in Chen Xuanxin's hand, so their value would definitely be higher.
When he thought of this, Song Qingming suddenly felt that his wealth seemed to have increased a lot, and he couldn't help but get a little excited.
As this fourth-level spiritual object was auctioned, the quality of the next twenty or so spiritual objects that appeared was slightly lower, and no spiritual objects above the fourth level appeared.
It was not until the end of the first day of the auction that two fourth-level spiritual talismans of high quality appeared, and they were also sold at a high price of more than 80,000 spirit stones.
In order to attract more cultivators to actively participate in such a large-scale trade fair, the organizer generally does not release too many precious spiritual objects above the fourth level at one time.
Instead, these high-level spiritual objects that can attract everyone are mixed into the auction every day. On the one hand, this can be used to retain cultivators, and on the other hand, it can give those cultivators who spent too much spiritual stones on the first day some time to raise spiritual stones again.
When Song Qingming and others walked out of the inner city, they saw many cultivators who participated in the auction took the initiative to rent stalls in the outer city to sell their spiritual objects in order to raise spiritual stones for the auction on the second day.
Song Qingming performed mediocrely in the auction on the first day, spending only more than 10,000 spiritual stones and harvesting a third-level top-grade elixir that can improve cultivation.
However, what Song Qingming did not expect was that Song Yuanhao and his friends were luckier than him. They actually bought two spiritual objects similar to the Jade Dust Pill that assisted the formation of the elixir, the Golden Pill, at a stall in the outer city.
"The Golden Pill" is a unique spiritual object for the formation of the elixir in Lei Yuanhai. Its effect of assisting the formation of the elixir is slightly better than that of the "Jade Dust Pill", which can increase the probability of the formation of the elixir by about 10%.
Of course, the price of "Jie Jin Dan" is much more expensive than "Yu Chen Dan". One pill costs about 10,000 spiritual stones, and it cannot be used at the same time as "Yu Chen Dan".
Seeing that Song Yuanhao and his friends actually bought two spiritual objects that can assist in Jin Dan, Song Qingming was very happy.
Not only did he encourage them, but he also rewarded each of them with hundreds of spiritual stones on the spot.
However, Song Yuanhao and his friends were indeed lucky to find these two "Jie Jin Dan".
In the following trading conference, Song Yuanhao and his friends, who were carrying spiritual stones, did not have such good luck even if they walked through the entire outer city several times.
On Song Qingming's side, although he saw a lot of good things appearing at the auction in the next few days, he still did not see any spiritual objects that could make him very excited.
Xu Ziyan, who only made a few moves to help him purchase spiritual objects, bought a few elixirs and spiritual fruits that were useful for Jin Dan mid-stage cultivators to improve their cultivation.
On the other hand, Chen Xuanxin, after missing out on the "Green Water Sword" on the first day of the auction, finally got a lucky chance on the seventh day of the auction, and got a fourth-level lower-grade flying sword magic weapon that he had been dreaming about.
As the auction entered the middle stage, many cultivators present had few spiritual stones on them, so the competition was slightly lower than at the beginning of the auction.
Even so, Chen Xuanxin spent nearly 130,000 spiritual stones to finally win the item.
For this reason, Chen Xuanxin not only withdrew tens of thousands of spiritual stones from Bai Yuxian, but even Song Qingming and others helped him borrow 5,000 spiritual stones each, which helped Chen Xuanxin win this fourth-level magic weapon.
Compared with Zhang Tieyang before, when Chen Xuanxin, the sect's current top Jindan master, asked everyone to borrow spiritual stones, everyone was obviously more proactive.
After all, Chen Xuanxin is currently considered to be the one in the sect who has the most potential to break through the Nascent Soul realm after Bai Yuxian, so everyone's attitude towards him is obviously different.
When the auction entered the tenth day, a spiritual object suddenly appeared on the stage, finally attracting Song Qingming's attention, and he showed a bit of excitement on his face.
"This object is called the Black Fire Golden Dragon Cauldron. It is a rare third-level top-grade magic weapon!
This cauldron can not only be used as a magic weapon to fight against enemies, but also as an excellent furnace for refining high-level elixirs. I hope that fellow Taoists who are good at refining elixirs will take a fancy to this object.
The Black Fire Golden Dragon Cauldron, the lowest price is 20,000 spiritual stones, and the minimum bid must not be less than 1,000 spiritual stones. Fellow Taoists, please raise your placards and bid!"
The person in charge of the auction of this spiritual object was a middle-aged Confucian scholar. The dark red three-legged tripod in his hand was an extremely rare third-grade upper-grade alchemy furnace.
Before Song Qingming came to the "Thunder Yuan Sea" cultivation world, he had promised Huang Siyuan that he would help her find a suitable high-level alchemy furnace to improve her alchemy skills.
In the auction a few days ago, although several third-grade alchemy furnaces appeared, the quality of those alchemy furnaces was only third-grade middle and lower-grade, which did not impress Song Qingming.
Now seeing the "Xuanhuo Jinlong Ding" in the hands of the middle-aged Confucian scholar, Song Qingming's eyes suddenly flashed.
"Twenty-four thousand spiritual stones!"
As soon as the middle-aged Confucian scholar on the stage finished speaking, Song Qingming immediately spoke to the maid waiting on the side, asking her to raise her sign and participate in the bidding.
Chu Fengping, who was in the private room next to him, had also spoken to participate in the bidding, wanting to compete.
But when he heard the offer from Song Qingming, he gave up on his own initiative after communicating with him.
Although Chu Fengping did not have a third-level top-grade alchemy furnace, there was a high-level alchemy furnace in the sect's "Alchemy Pavilion" that everyone could use, which could help him refine those high-level spiritual pills.
For Chu Fengping, this item was not so scarce. It would be better to keep the spirit stones to purchase those high-level elixirs that could help him break through the bottleneck of the late Jindan cultivation.
"Twenty-eight thousand spirit stones, twenty-nine thousand spirit stones."
"Thirty-six thousand spirit stones. Daoist No. 862 bids thirty-six thousand spirit stones. Is there anyone who can bid higher!"
"Thirty-seven thousand spirit stones! Are there any other Daoists who want to continue bidding?"
"Thirty-seven thousand spirit stones at a time, thirty-seven thousand spirit stones."
While Song Qingming was waiting a little nervously, the middle-aged Confucian scholar who presided over the auction finally put away the "Xuanhuo Jinlong Ding" in front of him and announced the final ownership of this spiritual object.
Seeing this, Song Qingming also showed a somewhat satisfied joke on his face. Under the guidance of the maid, he took the initiative to walk out of the private room and brought back the magic weapon "Xuanhuo Jinlong Ding" that he had won.
Although the price of spending 37,000 spiritual stones to bid for this third-level upper-grade alchemy furnace is not low, it is definitely worth it for Song Qingming.
After all, precious spiritual objects of the third-level upper-grade alchemy furnace are not easy to find anywhere outside.
If it is placed in a place with relatively poor resources such as the Xiuxian world in the Floating Cloud Mountains, even if you are willing to pay more spiritual stones, it is not necessarily that someone is willing to sell it to you.
After taking down the "Xuanhuo Jinlong Ding", just after returning to the private room, Song Qingming immediately heard the congratulations of Zhang Tieyang and others, and hurriedly thanked everyone.
However, before Song Qingming and his friends finished their politeness, a spiritual object that surprised everyone appeared on the auction table again, attracting the attention of Song Qingming and others.
The white-haired old man came on stage again this time. The jade box in his hand looked ordinary on the outside, but the elixir inside showed a somewhat extraordinary aura, which firmly locked the eyes of everyone in the venue.
"Dragon Pattern Pill, a third-grade high-quality elixir!"
"I believe many of you here know this pill. It is a high-quality elixir that can help Jindan cultivators break through the bottleneck of their cultivation.
Whether you are breaking through the bottleneck of the middle or late Jindan stage, this pill has excellent effects. It is one of the few elixirs on the market that can help Jindan cultivators like us advance.
If you miss this here, you may not have the chance to see it again in the future. Please don't miss the opportunity.
I won't say more. The third-grade high-quality Dragon Pattern Pill has a base price of 20,000 spirit stones. Each bid must not be less than 1,000 spirit stones. Please, fellow Taoists!"
"Junior Brother Song, this pill is extremely important to me. Can you give it to me first this time?"
After seeing the appearance of the "Dragon Pattern Pill", Chu Fengping's eyes suddenly lit up, and he immediately took the initiative to communicate with Song Qingming, wanting him to give up competing with him for this pill.
Among the several "Xiaoyao Sect" Jindan cultivators present, Chen Xuanxin's cultivation has reached the ninth level of Jindan, so naturally he can no longer use the "Dragon Pattern Pill" that can break through the Jindan stage.
Zhang Tieyang and Yun Nishang's cultivation is still shallow, and they have not yet reached the time when they need to break through the bottleneck of the late Jindan stage. The "Dragon Pattern Pill" is something that they can't use at the moment.
Only Song Qingming's cultivation has reached the peak of the eighth level of Jindan, and it is precisely when he needs this kind of pill to help break through the bottleneck of cultivation, so Chu Fengping took the initiative to communicate with him.
Hearing what Chu Fengping said, Song Qingming thought for a moment and nodded in agreement.
After all, when he was fighting for the "Xuanhuo Jinlong Ding" just now, Chu Fengping also took the initiative to give up the fight, and it was really hard to refuse in front of so many fellow disciples.
Although he promised the other party not to compete with him, if the price is too high next time and Chu Fengping takes the initiative to give up, Song Qingming can still continue to fight with others.
Song Qingming's cultivation has been polished to a certain extent, and he has enough confidence to advance to the ninth level of the Golden Core. Whether he has the "Dragon Pattern Pill" is not that important to him.
The reason why he was a little moved was that he wanted to consider Song Qingyu and Huang Siyuan's future breakthrough to the late Golden Core stage. After all, the two of them were not far from cultivating to the late Golden Core stage, and they would definitely be able to use it sooner or later.
"32,000 spirit stones, 33,000 spirit stones, 35,000 spirit stones."
As the price of the "Dragon Pattern Pill" continued to rise, the shock on everyone's faces never stopped. They didn't expect that this pill could be more expensive than a magic weapon of the same level.
Especially Chu Fengping, who was participating in the bidding, heard the white-haired old man on the stage still bidding, and his face became more and more ugly at this moment.
The spirit stones Chu Fengping brought this time were enough, but in the beginning, he spent tens of thousands of spirit stones to bid for the third-level top-grade defense magic weapon "Purple Cloud Banner".
This also caused him to be a little short of spirit stones now, and he was a little lacking in confidence in bidding for the "Dragon Pattern Pill".
"Fengping, if you don't have enough spirit stones, come to me to get some!"
Just when Chu Fengping was about to give up the bid, he suddenly heard the voice from Bai Yuxian's mouth, which made his face suddenly more excited.
"Thank you, Uncle Bai!"
After receiving the spiritual stones from Bai Yuxian, Chu Fengping instantly gained a lot of confidence. After a struggle, he finally won the "Dragon Pattern Pill" that he had been thinking about for a long time at a high price of 48,000 spiritual stones.
Although it was a lot of premium, as the white-haired old man said, although the "Dragon Pattern Pill" is a third-level upper-grade spiritual pill, its effect is indeed much stronger than ordinary pills of the same level.
Especially for a cultivator like Chu Fengping who has been trapped in the bottleneck of the late Jindan for many years, this pill is a precious spiritual object that they can only encounter but not seek, and they can't miss it easily even if it is a lot of premium.
"Congratulations, Senior Brother Chu!"
"Thank you, Uncle Bai, thank you, brothers and sisters. Today, Chu can get this pill and it is also what he wants. Next, I will not participate in the competition for other spiritual objects."
After getting the "Dragon Pattern Pill" that he had been thinking about, Chu Fengping, who had very few spiritual stones left, directly said to withdraw from the next spiritual object competition.
However, facing this rare opportunity to participate in a large-scale auction, Chu Fengping did not choose to leave the private room even if he withdrew from the competition for the spiritual objects, but sat aside as a spectator.
Song Qingming, who gave up the competition for the "Dragon Pattern Pill" on his own initiative, felt a little regretful at the moment, but did not think much about it.
After all, the auction is not far from the end, and there will definitely be more good things in the future.
Moreover, in the first ten days of the auction, it was mainly these Jindan cultivators who competed for the spiritual objects, and Yuanying cultivators such as Bai Yuxian hardly took the initiative to participate in the bidding.
The reason for this is naturally to wait for those spiritual objects worthy of their competition to come out. (End of this chapter)
