Chapter 4: The Auction Turmoil

Noah's Auction House is the only auction house in the entire Thousand Star Domain, and it is divided into junior auction houses, intermediate auction houses, advanced auction houses, and imperial auction houses according to the size of the city. The largest is the auction house of the Thousand Star Empire on the Thousand Star Domain's Sky Star, the treasures, spiritual weapons, and elixirs in it are only you can't think of, and you can't buy them without you, there is a paradise for spiritual cultivators, provided that you can consume it. All the auction houses in the whole region are run by the Nuo family, which is the family of the Thousand Star Domain second to the imperial royals, and there are countless strong people in the clan, and the wealth is unparalleled. This kind of ancient family is often unfathomable, and even the Lord of a Thousand Stars, Emperor Wuya, sees that Noah, the contemporary leader of the Nuo family, has no shelf and sits on an equal footing. Some of these behemoths do the backstage, and it is conceivable that the entire auction house is extremely fair, and no one dares to make a mistake here.

Xia Ruyi was a little relieved that the auction house would never divulge other people's secrets and news. Striding into the auction house, there were two guards guarding the door in front of him, a red wool carpet was spread in the center of the hall, and a seven-colored glass lamp was hung directly above, extremely luxurious and magnificent, Xia Ruyi was the first time to see such a magnificent decoration. "Sir, are you here to buy or sell something?" said a middle-aged man in his forties in a respectful tone, "Anyway, you have to register your information first." Xia Ru nodded and registered a pseudonym, "I want to participate in the auction the day after tomorrow, I don't know what conditions are required?" The middle-aged uncle frowned, "There are a lot of people coming to this auction, and there are a lot of things to auction, the quota is almost full, if you want to participate, I can't be the master, you wait here, I'll go and ask the person in charge of the auction house." ”

After a while, an old man with a small brown beard and a pair of small round eyes came to the front, "Hello, this gentleman, I am the person in charge of this auction house, my name is Norton, I heard that you want to participate in this auction, then you have to meet some conditions." Either there are enough financial resources, or there are treasures that can be auctioned. Xia Ruyi took out the piece of jade in the wood from the bag, "I don't know if this jade can participate in the auction." The jade in the wood flowed brightly in Xia Ruyi's hand, exuding a gentle wood attribute aura, refreshing the mind. When Norton saw it, he recognized it as a jade in the wood, which was very rare, and it was the best aid for cultivators, "This jade can participate in this auction, and it will definitely sell for a good price." I'll take care of it for you, sir, so that he can show up at auction the day after tomorrow. You've already registered, just come to the auction the day after tomorrow. By the way, if you have anything you need to buy, I can give you some introduction. "Norton has been very enthusiastic since I took out this jade, and it seems that I still underestimated its value. Where did the piece of jade go, I just saw him in Norton's hand, and it disappeared in a blink of an eye. Looking at the brown ring on the old man's hand, could it be the Spirit Ring? Xia Ruyi had mixed feelings in his heart, it would be good if he also had these treasures, "I don't know if you have the core of a second-order alien beast and the Clear Vein Grass?"

"There are a lot of second-order alien beast cores, and you can buy them if you have money, but the third-grade herb of Qingmai Grass has to wait for the auction, and I remember that there are two strains that will be auctioned. Norton happily explained to Xia Ruyi. As soon as he heard these two things, Xia Ruyi said goodbye and left, waiting for the auction to begin.

--------------------------

When I got home, I had dinner with my parents, and when I heard that Xia Jing's cousin had returned to Tianxingmen, I sighed softly, I don't know how many years I have cultivated, and I don't know when I will see you next time. "Ruyi, do you want to go to the auction the day after tomorrow with your father? This time I will definitely help you auction off the lock spirit scatter, there will be a chance before you become an adult" Xia Yuan looked at his son in a daze, and his heart was a little unbearable, this child has not been able to cultivate since he was a child, and he is looked down upon, I have tried so many ways and failed to help him lock the soul, there is less than half a year left, so I should make one last effort for him, no matter what, this time I will also shoot this lock spirit for Ruyi. Xia Ru came back to his senses, "Father, I won't go to the auction, don't force me to do what I can, I know my own physical condition best, don't waste too much money in vain, I'm a little tired, go back to rest." "Anyway, Xia Ruyi went back to sleep, there have been too many things recently, and he is busy every day, not as easy as when he is a young master, and it didn't take long for the snoring to come out.

Two days later, the auction was held as scheduled, and some big families, spiritual cultivators, and children of some sects in the city came one after another. Xia Ru came to the auction house early, still dressed in the grimace mask. "Sir, please, you sit in this hall, and your lot will be auctioned in a moment, and you can also auction whatever you like. Norton saw Xia Ru take him to the venue and sit down.

Xia Ruyi looked around, there were some people sitting around him that he knew, some were young masters of big families, and some were martial artists who had been famous for a long time in the city, Qin Xuan, the second young master of the Qin family, was sitting in the first row, and next to him sat a young man who looked slightly older than him. And Xia Yuan is not in this hall, he should be in the box on the second floor. Some big names have their own independent boxes, which can be regarded as a status symbol.

"Welcome to this auction, I'm the host Norton, and there will be a lot of valuable items in this auction, so please wait and see. Now, the auction officially begins. "The first lot was presented, and it was a mid-grade artifact.

Spiritual weapons, exercises, and spiritual skills are divided into upper, middle and lower levels in the Silver Siem Star, but in the entire Thousand Star Domain, there is a unified judgment method, which is divided into sub-levels, human levels, earth levels, and heavenly levels, and if there is no stage, it is divided into upper, middle and lower grades, with different quality and different power values. The spiritual weapon is different from the exercises, the spiritual technique, it is an external object, to assist the spiritual cultivator.

"The spiritual weapon in front of me is a mid-grade sub-rank, a long sword made of cold iron and Tianji stone. Norton looked at the fiery gaze from the audience and was very satisfied, "This sword can be embedded with spirit stones, and it doesn't require the user to consume too much spiritual power, and the price is 1,000 lower-grade star stones." The venue suddenly erupted into a noisy discussion, it is indeed very practical not to use too much spiritual power, but the price of spirit stones is high, and it is not something that can be bought casually. And the price of 1,000 lower grade star stones makes some people give up their ideas, after all, most people still have other things they want to buy. In the Thousand Star Domain, Star Stone is a universal currency, which is more suitable than gold coins. 100 gold coins is equal to 1 lower grade star stone, 100 lower grade star stones are equal to 1 medium grade star stone, and 1 piece of upper grade is equal to 100 medium grade star stones. The most common is the lower grade star stone, the middle grade can also be seen in some large-scale auctions, the top grade star stone because of the scarcity of production, and it is also the best material for forging spiritual weapons, generally do not trade, the price of the top grade star stone with better fineness is far more than the price of 100 medium grade star stone.

And the price of this spiritual artifact, which is equivalent to 100,000 gold coins, is also a bit expensive, and it was finally bought by the leader of an adventure group at the reserve price. After all, the people in the adventure group are different, although they are rich in revenge, but they perform different tasks every time, and some tasks will lose their lives if they are not careful, so one more spiritual weapon has more protection, and no matter how much money there is, it has to be spent on life.

"I believe everyone will be interested in the second round of lots below, he has the effect of helping to cultivate spiritual power, calming the mind and recuperating the mind, and it is a piece of jade in the wood. Norton seemed to be very dissatisfied with the previous auction of the spirit weapon, and there was no expression on his face, and when he said the second round of lots, the audience gasped, this wood jade must be bought, everyone has this thought in their hearts. This kind of auxiliary cultivation thing is very rare, and it is rich in wood attribute aura. And ordinary spirit stones can also help with cultivation, but they are all one-time, and they are gone when they are used up, and the price is high. Although this jade in the wood does not release much spiritual energy, it can be nourished by spiritual cultivators and used all the time.

"The starting price of this lot is 3,000 lower grade star stones. Norton said slowly. This time it wasn't like just now, and everyone was eager to try it when they heard the price.

“3500。 "There was a voice from one room on the second floor. “4000。 "A Soul Breaker quotes. 5000,6000......“9000。 I want it. The young man next to Qin Xuan spoke up, and the originally noisy auction suddenly became quiet. The 9,000 lower grade star stones had greatly exceeded the value of this jade, so no one raised the price anymore, and he finally bought it. Others also talked about who this generous man was, and what was his relationship with the Qin family, and then someone who was interested recognized him.

It turned out that this person was the eldest son of the Qin family, Qin Xuan's elder brother, Qin Feng. At the age of 15, I went to Fengmingxing's Tiancang Academy, which is different from the sect, the academy recruits students more fairly, as long as you have the ability, you can enroll in further studies. Tiancang Academy is also one of the three major academies of the Thousand Star Domain. Xia Ruyi listened to the whispers of the person next to him, and his heart was already smiling, he didn't expect that he would become rich overnight, this Qin Feng is really his lucky star, he can't stay in the academy to cultivate, and he ran back to send me money. If this Qin Feng knew what Xia Ruyi was thinking in his heart at this moment, he would probably vomit three liters of blood.

The next few lots were all ordinary, nothing special, only two Sanping Qingmai Grass were photographed by a person with a grimace mask and used 2,000 Pinpins Star Stones, which caused some sensation. But no one has studied deeply, maybe he is an alchemist, and he needs this herb urgently.

The last lot of this auction house is the lock Lingsan, which is something that Xia Yuan must get. And the Qin family knew that Xia Yuan wanted to buy this lock spirit to his waste son, otherwise he would not have come to this auction house in person. The starting price was 500 and Xia Yuan did not hesitate at all when the price was raised all the way to 5000, and Qin Xuan also stopped in moderation and did not continue to increase the price. Xia Yuan thought to himself, if he finally took a picture, he should give Ruyi a surprise, although the price is a little expensive, but it doesn't matter. And Xia Ru clenched his fists early in the morning, and he was originally full of loads, but now he was staring at Qin Xuan with a pair of eyes, "Sooner or later, you won't be able to eat and walk around." ”
