Chapter Thirty-Six: Race to Strike

The sturdy old man cleared his throat, and only said loudly when the audience quieted down: "I am Leng Qiu, the chief auctioneer of the Li Mall Branch of the Wanshou Chamber of Commerce, this auction is hosted by the four major chambers of commerce, there are only ten pieces for sale, each treasure is screened layer by layer to stand out, the rules of the chamber of commerce must be clear to everyone, I only hope that everyone can compete fairly." ”

Hei Wuli whispered to Chen and smiled: "Look at this person's breath, the strength should be around the Nine Essence Yuan Realm, and there are also many strong people guarding the dark places around the venue, and one of the strongest breaths has locked the auction table around, it seems that it will not be weaker than me and my eldest brother." ”

Chen Xiao bowed slightly, and at this time, the auctioneer Leng Qiu had already waved his hand to call a maid, who was holding a rectangular box in her hand, and gently placed it on the pear wood round table and retreated.

Leng Qiu said: "Not much to say, this is the first auction item today, the top-grade Yuan Weapon Thunder Breaking Knife, created by Wang Lang, the master of the Yuan Weapon in the city, the knife is sealed with a thunder power, and there is a rolling thunder sound when wielding, which is not only sharp and abnormal, but also can disturb the enemy's mind, and the starting price is 10,000 second-class Yuan Stones." ”

Chen Xiao had the former artifact Wind King Pestle in his hand, but he was not very interested in this.

The guests on the first floor of the hall must have known Wang Lang's reputation, and as soon as Leng Qiu's voice fell, some people began to compete for bids: "Eleven thousand!"

"Ten thousand twelve!"

"Twelve thousand five!"

"Fifteen thousand!"...

It took half a pillar of incense for the Thunder Breaking Sword to be auctioned off by a red-faced man at the price of 18,500 second-class yuan stones. He handed over the Yuan Stone and took the Yuan Weapon, but he didn't plan to continue to participate in the auction below, so he left the venue in a hurry.

A group of black-clothed men in the venue quietly followed each other after making eye contact, and within a moment, another group of gray-clad men with fierce faces also exchanged a few words, and they all withdrew from the venue and chased down.

Chen Xiao shook his head and said secretly: Sure enough, it is the wealth that moves people's hearts, and a high-grade yuan weapon of less than 20,000 yuan stone has attracted these people to covet it, and it must be inevitable to fight and kill.

That Leng Qiu seemed to be used to this for a long time, and glanced at them lightly and ignored it.

The second lot is a Yuan Vessel for cultivating the Divine Soul, which is somewhat similar to Chen Xiao's Concentration Ding but is a little rougher. This yuan artifact also attracted a group of people to rob it, and it was finally auctioned off at a price of 22,000 yuan stones.

Although the treasures auctioned in front of him were rare, they couldn't arouse Chen Xiao's interest, and the people in the VIP room on the second floor never made a move.

It wasn't until the eighth lot came to the stage that Chen Xiao was also moved, this is an emerald green elixir, the whole body is round and crystalline, called the Barrier Breaking Pill, which can increase the success chance of two layers in the breakthrough for cultivators below the realm, although the effect is not as good as the Juyuan Spirit Fruit, but it is also the elixir that cultivators dream of.

Chen Xiao had already taken the Juyuan Spirit Fruit once, and this Spirit Fruit had no effect on him, and the Barrier Breaking Pill could make it easier for him to advance next time, so Chen Xiao was quite interested in this elixir.

The starting price of the Barrier Breaking Pill is 15,000 second-class yuan stones, and as soon as Leng Qiu quoted the price, some people have already begun to fight: "Sixteen thousand!"

"Ten thousand seventeen!"

"Twenty thousand!".

Chen Xiao was not in a hurry to make a move, until the pill was raised to 25,000 yuan stones, and there were very few people competing in the audience, he slowly raised his hand and said, "Thirty thousand!"

Everyone was slightly surprised when they saw that someone raised the price by five thousand at a time, and looked at the voice, but saw that it was just an ordinary handsome young man.

The lips of the people who were competing for the pill moved slightly, but they no longer had the courage to raise the price, and sat back one by one with a little unwillingness.

Just when Chen Xiao thought that the elixir was in his hands, a loud voice suddenly came from the VIP room on the second floor: "Thirty-five thousand!"

Chen Xiao heard that the person who spoke was Song Yang, the city lord of Li Mall, and he was just about to bid again, when a cold voice came from another VIP room: "Thirty-eight thousand!"

Song Yang seemed to hesitate for a moment before slowly saying, "Forty thousand!"

I only heard Jiang Haotian laugh again: "Forty-three thousand!"

This time, Song Yang didn't increase the price again, Jiang Haotian smiled and said: "Song City Lord is not strange, this barrier-breaking pill is very important to dogs, and Jiang has no choice but to win the love of others." ”

Before Song Yang could speak, someone in the audience suddenly spoke: "Fifty thousand!" The person who bid was Chen Xiao.

Jiang Haotian was slightly stunned, walked out of the room with a bead curtain, and looked at Chen Xiao: "Is there anyone else in Li Mall who dares to rob me of something I fancie?"

Chen Xiao only glanced at him lightly, then withdrew his gaze and ignored it.

Leng Qiu frowned, and said with a slightly unhappy face: "The master of Jiangmen is self-respecting, don't break the rules of the four major chambers of commerce." ”

Jiang Haotian looked at Leng Qiu, and a look of jealousy flashed in his eyes, he was just a local snake in Li Mall, and he was too far behind the four major chambers of commerce of the Blue King Empire, how could he take the initiative to touch people's heads.

He glared at Chen Xiao fiercely: "Sixty thousand!"

The audience was in an uproar again, Chen Xiao shook his head slightly, his ultimate goal was the Sky Control Technique, and he couldn't waste too many Yuan Stones on this elixir, otherwise the next highlight would be nothing for him.

Seeing that he didn't increase the price anymore, Jiang Haotian snorted coldly and went back to the room, and whispered to an old man beside him: "You go and check the details of this kid, and then clean him up after the auction is over!" The old man nodded and went out.

Everyone in the audience saw that this young man had offended Jiang Haotian and still had that plain appearance, and their eyes looking at Chen Xiao also flickered slightly, some were pitiful, some were gloating, and so on.

The ninth lot is a volume of spiritual recipes for cultivating the Yuan Qi Gong Method, called the True Martial Double Han Jue, which has actually reached the level of the primary realm, according to Leng Qiu, this exercise can integrate the power of cold water into one's own vitality, and is most suitable for two initiates who are related by blood.

Chen Xiao has nine transformation magic tricks, and he is not very interested in this, but the two elders of black and white are quite concerned about this spirit trick, Chen Xiao saw this and bid a few times, and when the price was raised to 50,000 yuan, he had to withdraw from the competition.

This time, the Skull Gate did not bid again, and when the city lord Song Yang opened his mouth to raise the price of the spirit recipe to 70,000 yuan stone, others would no longer fight, and this true martial arts double cold recipe was included in his pocket as he wished.

Leng Qiu personally brought a cyan wooden box to the stage, gently opened the lid, and held a cyan scroll in his hand, and everyone present suddenly quieted down, their eyes full of coveting.

Leng Qiu's expression was also a little solemn, and he slowly put the scroll back into the wooden box, and said: "This tenth lot is a volume of body magic and spirit technique, Gangfeng Aerial Technique, presumably the distinguished guests present have heard of it, and the starting price is 50,000 second-class yuan stones!"

Hearing this price, most people were half cold, and there was silence in the venue for a long time, and no one opened their mouths to quote.

Leng Qiu was not in a hurry at all, his eyes glanced at the VIP room on the second floor, and the corners of his mouth were slightly raised like an old fox.

The time of half a pillar of incense passed, and the solemn atmosphere of the venue was finally broken, only to hear a shrill voice and smile: "Since everyone is unwilling to bid first, let's throw bricks and lead the jade down, fifty-five thousand!"

As soon as this person took the lead in bidding, he immediately ignited the atmosphere of the venue: "Sixty thousand!"

"Sixty-five thousand!"

"Sixty-eight thousand!"

Chen Xiao, Jiang Hattian, and Song Yang have not made a move, and when the price was shouted to 100,000, everyone in the venue on the first floor had already died down, and only the two VIP rooms on the second floor were still fighting.

Jiang Hattian's voice sounded again: "This spiritual trick is bound to be obtained by my skeleton gate, and I also ask my friends to give the old man a few thin noodles, 110,000!"

The people in the other two rooms on the second floor listened to Jiang Hattian's words, sat back with a wry smile and stopped making a sound.

Jiang Hatian seemed to be very satisfied with their attitude, and there was a soft laugh in the room from time to time.

At this time, Song Yang also spoke: "115,000!"

Jiang Hatian knew that this realm spirit trick would never be so easy to succeed, and he had already expected this, so he didn't hesitate to speak: "One hundred and twenty thousand!"

Before Wang Yang could speak, Chen Xiao in the audience also joined in: "150,000!"

Everyone couldn't help but be speechless, this kid is really a gold master, he can take out more than 100,000 second-class yuan stones casually, and he doesn't know which young master it is, so he is not afraid of offending the skeleton gate and not being able to get out of Li Mall.

Jiang Hattian's tone was obviously a little more annoyed: "One hundred and fifty-five thousand!"

This time, even Song Yang withdrew from the auction, leaving only Chen Xiao and Jiang Haotian to fight.

Chen Xiao said slowly without raising his head: "Two hundred thousand!"

Chen Xiao took 290,000 yuan of stone from Lei Wanjun and others, and he had used 100,000 yuan for the promotion of black and white, plus the little inventory left in his hand, 200,000 second-class yuan stones were already all his family funds, and if the other party increased the price again, he could only withdraw.

This time, the large price increase of nearly 50,000 yuan made everyone in the audience riot again.

That Jiang Hattian's tone was extremely cold, as if he had a little killing intent: "Hehe, it's really a hero out of a young man, then the old man will play with you, 210,000!"

Chen Xiao frowned, and said to Leng Qiu after a long silence: "Elder Leng, I don't know if I have treasures that can mortgage some yuan stones?"

Leng Qiu was not very interested in Jiang Hattian, and after listening to Chen Xiao's words, he hesitated for a moment and said: "The Chamber of Commerce has always settled with yuan stones, I don't know if you have any treasures or someone bidding." ”

Chen Xiao flipped his palm and threw a ginkgo to Leng Qiu, Leng Qiu took the ginkgo and looked at it carefully for a moment, and there was a slight surprise in his voice: "This is the Juyuan Spirit Fruit?"

"Boom!"

The atmosphere of the venue was ignited at once, the value of the Juyuan Spirit Fruit was much higher than the previous Barrier Breaking Pill, and the people of the Ninefold Essence Yuan Realm took it, if it wasn't for the bad luck, they could basically advance to the realm realm, this was an unavoidable treasure, and its value would never be much lower than the Sky Technique.

Even Leng Qiu was a little surprised, his status as the chief auctioneer of the Wanshou Chamber of Commerce Branch would never be low, he had presided over no less than a thousand high-level auctions over the years, Juyuan Spirit Fruit, this kind of heaven and earth treasure, he had only seen it once before, and the last time the spirit fruit was not fully ripe, it was auctioned away by a big family at a very high price.

And today, Chen Xiao took out this spirit fruit, which was obviously fully ripe, and Leng Qiu couldn't help but be a little curious about Chen Xiao's origin.
