The advantage of the teleportation array is that it can reach the destination in an instant, saving the pain of eating and sleeping in the open, so Qin Chuan did not feel tired, so he combed through the information about the ghost hand, some of which were deduced by himself, some were speculated, but the general context probably came out.

The next step is to contact his distraction incarnation, so that it will be a matter of concern, but although Xia Zhiyang is nearby, how to connect is still a troublesome matter, which needs to be considered in the long run.

There are still a few days left before the final round of the Instrument Refining Competition, and he plans to walk around the city, on the one hand, to see the style of the Holy City of Instrument Refining, and on the other hand, it also means to try his luck.

said hello to Qi Tianzheng, went out of the Immortal Mansion, and then sent a note to Su Yifeng and Su Yifei's brothers and sisters, and soon there was a response, agreeing to gather under the sculpture of an axe and a hammer.

About the time of a pillar of incense, the two brothers and sisters came, and Kong Ming came with them, "Haha, Brother Qin, I didn't expect you to be in Heavenly Refining City!"

"It's a long story, I'm here too!"

The three of them were stunned, and Su Yifeng asked, "Didn't you quit, how..."

Qin Chuan smiled bitterly and briefly explained what happened.

Kong Ming stroked his forehead, "With you participating, I feel a lot of pressure!"

"What pressure can you have, it's just that you are involved!" Su Yifei teased.

"What are these words, when the time comes, let you see what a super dark horse is!"

Qin Chuan couldn't help but glance at Su Yifeng when he saw the two of them bickering, and then smiled, both of them could see that Kong Ming and Su Yifei had a tendency to become happy enemies.

The four of them found a restaurant to eat and chat, "Brother Kong, should you be a jack of all trades?"

"Yes, it's full!"

Qin Chuan knew this guy's virtue, and put on a posture of asking for advice.

Kong Ming drank it all, then folded the fan and said: "Originally, there was no such thing as the Instrument Refining Treasure Book, we still have a great hope of achieving a good ranking, but now it is really difficult, like Kang Jie of Taiyi Gate, Wang Tianba of Wanshou Mountain, these guys also have to play, the situation is very serious!"

"Oh, they're amazing, aren't they?"

"What's more, they are the first and third in the last refining competition, at that time they were already at the level of refining masters, after twenty years, their strength must have improved a lot, and those old guys in the alliance have coveted the treasure book, and they will inevitably carry out intensive training for their own children and nephews who participate in the competition, and then a dragon fight is inevitable!"

"Well, tell me what's going on with that artifact refining treasure book, I heard that this thing is known as the holy book in the refining weapon!"

"I don't know much about this, the origin of the treasure book is very mysterious, I heard that there is also a refining method of immortal treasures, the Yang family back then, originally a little-known small family, and then got this treasure book and couldn't take it, but their background is shallow, such a heavy treasure in their hands is a curse rather than a blessing, so they were wiped out!"

"This is called the innocence of the puppeteer, and the guilt of the horse!" Su Yifeng sighed with emotion.

"This topic is too heavy, let's talk about something else, Brother Qin, tomorrow the Longteng Business Alliance will hold a special auction of materials, are you interested in participating?" Su Yifei directly changed the topic.

"A special auction of materials?"

"Yes, this Dragon Teng Business Alliance is really good at doing business, and if we hold such an auction before the start of the Instrument Refining Competition, those rare materials will definitely be sold at sky-high prices!"

"This is certain, according to reliable sources, most of the materials sold this time are from the Demon Spirit Continent, in fact, it is normal to sell at a high price, our Zhongzhou Continent's heavenly and earthly treasures have long been consumed, if there is no input of resources from the outer continent, the Zhongzhou Immortal Cultivation Realm would have declined long ago!" Kong Ming said.

Qin Chuan can understand this, some things can grow when they are used, but the natural treasure is not good, and the synthetic material of crystal card appeared in Zhongzhou, which also illustrates this point from the side.

He suddenly had an idea, thinking that as the Xia Zhiyang Refining Sect Master, he must be interested in materials, and maybe he could meet them at the auction, so he made up his mind to wait outside the auction hall in advance.

After the small gathering, the four of them went around the Refining Heaven City again, each bought some things, and then returned to the ashram of the Immortal Mansion.

The next day, Qin Chuan did not go to Kong Ming and the others, but came to the gate of Longteng Commercial House early in the morning, at this time, there were still more than two hours before the special auction of materials, and naturally there were no guests.

The Divine Sense Mask was put on, leaning against the corner of the building of the trading house, and the Soul Nourishing Jar was placed in the wide cuffs, if Xia Zhiyang arrived, he would definitely have a strong feeling.

"Daoist friends are here to participate in the auction, you can enter the auction hall and wait!" someone from a trading house noticed him and took the initiative to come up to say hello.

"Oh, I'm going to wait for a friend first!"

The merchant nodded, and went on his own.

About half an hour later, some people began to enter, and when there was less than an hour before the auction began, there were gradually more people, Qin Chuan saw a lot of familiar faces, there were refiners who had participated in the Northern District Refining Competition, there were also Si Yanping, Wang Mingchuan and others, and soon after, he also saw Jia Chaozong and Duan Tianhong and a group of seven or eight people coming together.

I have heard Kong Ming say yesterday that this Tianhong was qualified for the supplementary competition because of his withdrawal.

After that, Qin Chuan saw Qi Tianzheng and Qi Huaishan enter the auction hall together, and then Ma Buchang, Ou Qianyan, Kong Ming and the Su brothers and sisters also entered the auction hall one after another.

Seeing that it was less than half an hour before the auction opened, the person he was waiting for had not shown up.

Time passed bit by bit, the number of people entering the house gradually decreased, and a few people suddenly walked out of the trading house, led by middle-aged people dressed in golden robes, with extraordinary bearing, they stood at the door, as if they were waiting for someone.

There was less than a pillar of incense time before the opening, and several guards came around a girl in red, and when the middle-aged man in the golden robe saw this woman, he immediately greeted him with a smile, and respected the "third lady", the girl nodded with dignity and entered the auction hall with her head held high.

"This woman is not small!" Qin Chuan muttered, and then looked around, the person who was waiting for him was afraid that he would not come, so he sighed, and was just about to walk towards the auction hall, when suddenly a voice came from behind: "Are you waiting for me?"

As soon as he turned around, a person came out from behind the firm, this person was leaning on his body, looking like an old dragon clock, but his eyes were extremely sharp.

Qin Chuan's heart froze, he didn't know when the old guy came, and those eyes were like eagle falcons, giving him a very dangerous feeling, and as soon as his mind moved, he put the soul nourishing jar in his sleeve into the Sumeru space.

"I'm waiting for someone, but I'm just waiting for a woman, but unfortunately he hasn't come!"

"Wait for a woman, could it be your little lover?"

Qin Chuan's face was slightly red, "How did the seniors know?"

"Haha, it turned out to be an amorous seed, you go in quickly, and the auction will start later!"

"Yes, Senpai!"

The old man watched Qin Chuan enter, and muttered in his mouth: "It seems that the surname Xia will not come, it's a pity!"

After waiting for a while, the auction was about to start, and the old man disappeared like smoke, and the spatial prohibition in the city did not work for him.

Not long after the old man left, a person walked out of a shop not far from the Longteng Trading House, who cautiously glanced around and entered the auction hall at the last moment when the door of the trading house was closed.

The scale of the auction hall is very large, enough to accommodate 10,000 people, so there are still many seats left, and the person did not sit according to the number of the jade plate in his hand, but sat next to Qin Chuan, coughed lightly, and whispered an inexplicable word, "The Dharma Person, the Qi Person, the Treasure Person, the Essence Person, the Instrument Carrying the Essence Qi, the Magic Weapon!"

Hearing this, Qin Chuan couldn't help but be shocked, and then continued, "The one who is arrayed is also the way of heaven and earth, the one who is tattooed is the embodiment of the Tao, and the one who engraves the pattern of the array is called the refining treasure!"

The two of them acted like this, quite a bit when the gangsters connected, one chanted "the king of heaven covers the tiger", and the other should be with the meaning of "the river demon of Pagoda Town".
