Chapter 9 Auctions

When he arrived at the door of the auction hall, Lin Song didn't want Tucker and his son to recognize him, so he bought a cloak with a black mask to cover his head and face.

The auction venue is a huge building, the size of a modern basketball court. Kuban is the only nearby city with an auction venue of this size.

The auction hadn't been held for a few years, because ordinary cultivation materials could be bought in the store. Rare materials, on the other hand, are acquired early and rarely end up at auction. However, this auction was held jointly by several nearby cities, and it is said that each castle lord took out a few rare treasures, so this auction was very sensational.

Lin Song walked into the auction and bought a seat for ten soul crystals. The seat is a stone platform and a stone bench. The stone platform is recessed, making it easy to place the soul crystal inside. This is due to the rules set during the auction process to prevent random bidding, where soul crystals must be placed directly in the groove of the stone platform. The seating arrangement is similar to that of the stadium seats, which are raised in descending order. At the top is a row of luxurious private rooms, which are occupied by monks of high status.

In the private room, Lin Song saw the city lord Terry, the city lord of Kuban City, Vincent, a capable Humpty Dumpty, and the city lords of several nearby cities. In the private room, in addition to the city lord, there are monks of some power, and the old Tucker father and son also occupy a private room.

More and more monks entered the auction, and almost all the seats in the venue were filled, and there were thousands of people, and it was indeed a rare event.

The auction began, and a beautiful friar, scantily clad and scratching her head, pulled out a box.

The host introduced loudly, "The first auction item, ten years of Yin Soul Grass ......"

There was a faint laughter from the stands, ten years of Yin Soul Grass was originally the most common potion material, but because the goods were in short supply recently, they actually came up for auction. It seems that the auction also wants to speculate and make money!

"A total of ten plants, a thousand ounces of low price, now the auction starts!"

The normal price of ten years of Yin Soul Grass is fifty ounces per plant, and now the reserve price of the auction has doubled, except for those who are in dire need, who will buy it.

The host shouted twice, and someone in the corner bid,

"One thousand and fifty!"

The host shouted twice,

"One thousand one hundred ang!"

This time it was Lin Song who was bargaining, and he was in urgent need of this Yin Soul Grass.

Lin Song and the competitors both took out the corresponding soul crystals and placed them in the groove of the stone table in front of them to show their sincerity in bidding.

"One thousand one hundred and fifty!"

"One thousand two!"

This small price increase made some rich people in the stands feel very impatient, and some people couldn't help but shout: "Hurry up and make an offer!"

In the end, when Lin Song shouted one thousand and five, the bidder stopped bidding. The thousand ounces of these Yin Soul Grass had greatly exceeded their actual value, and if that person was not in urgent need, he would not have competed with Lin Song.

Lin Song stepped onto the stage, handed over fifteen hundred ounces, and took back the Yin Soul Grass. Many people in the stands couldn't help but show disdain. Although they couldn't see Lin Song's appearance, a monk who had bid for ten years of Yin Soul Grass must be a low-level monk. You may come to the auction and only bid on this one item!

The auction continued, and at first a few things were very commonplace, and some of the anxious people in the stands shouted, "Hurry up and get out the good things!"

When it comes to the fifth item, it is ten white pills, which can increase the soul power of the disciple control monk. It was transmitted here from an extraterritorial planet, and that planet was a cultivation planet, and this pill was called an elixir.

This elixir is a novelty on the soul star, although it is only used by the disciples, it has also aroused the interest of many people. The price climbed again and again, and finally it was auctioned for 10,000.

Since then, the grade of the auction items has gradually increased, and the price has also risen, soon exceeding 20,000, 30,000, and 50,000. Elixirs, horcruxes, cultivation materials, and all kinds of strange things from heaven and earth gradually appeared. The atmosphere in the auction hall was also lively. However, Lin Song noticed that several city lords in the VIP room had never made an offer, and they should still be waiting for more precious items to appear.

At this time, the beautiful woman on the auction table took out a piece of metal in the shape of a nail plate.

The phrase "Defensive Horcrux ......" quickly attracted the attention of all the monks in the audience, and among the tangible Horcruxes, there were few defensive Horcruxes. Because, in order to be suitable for soul power urging, defensive horcruxes must be light and thin, but in order to increase the defensive area, they must be large, so the material is generally more advanced, and the price is naturally higher.

“...... The Horcrux is made of eight pieces of dark iron metal, the edges of which have been sharpened into sharp blades that can be used for attack. ”

There was a whisper in the audience, this is a Horcrux that can be used both for attack and defense, which is rare.

In order to prove the effect of this Horcrux, the host waved his hand, and the armor piece in the beauty's hand flew into the air, instantly separated, and turned into eight thin armor pieces. The host pointed his finger, and with a "bang!" sound, eight pieces of armor joined together, forming a round shield with a diameter of one and a half feet, which slowly rotated in the air.

"In addition to ordinary physical defense, this Horcrux can also reduce the damage of invisible Horcruxes by fifty percent!"

"Wow!" There was an exclamation from the audience, a tangible Horcrux could reduce the damage of an invisible Horcrux, which was very rare. This attribute immediately increased the price of this Horcrux a lot. Even several city lords in the VIP room nodded slightly, proving that this tangible Horcrux was indeed good.

"This horcrux is called a tortoise shell, which means that the defense is as strong as a tortoiseshell, and the price starts at 30,000 soul crystals. ”

30,000 soul crystals, this is the highest reserve price among Horcruxes that have appeared before.

Lin Song listened to the introduction and nodded secretly, this Horcrux can be attacked and defended, it's really good. Moreover, the eight decks, all of which can be used separately, are actually eight Horcruxes, and after reaching the intermediate level of the master, they can control two. As the cultivation increases, the number of pieces controlled becomes more and more, which means that this Horcrux can be used in the entire control and control stages.

"Thirty-two!"

"Thirty-four!"

......

The price climbed quickly, and after reaching 50,000, the people who asked for the price gradually became thin.

The price of tangible horcruxes is generally between 10,000 and 30,000, and the price of higher-grade horcruxes should not exceed 50,000. Although this Horcrux was good, after it exceeded 50,000, many monks were reluctant to bid again.

"Fifty-six thousand!"

"Fifty-eight thousand!"

"Sixty thousand!"

In an instant, there was silence in the venue, and the one who shouted out the price of 60,000 yuan came from a private room, which was Old Tucker. Old Tucker was a Controller-level monk, and he didn't need this Horcrux, apparently bidding for his son.

"Sixty thousand, sixty thousand, twenty-two!" the host's voice echoed through the venue, and no one bid again. Old Tucker gradually showed a smile on his face, with this Horcrux, it would be safer for his son to choose to go to the Fog Star.

"Sixty-two!"

Someone in the front stand suddenly called for a bid, and everyone looked over together, and someone with a good memory shouted: "It's the first person to auction the Yin Soul Grass!"

It turned out that it was Lin Song shouting the price.

The host glanced at it, frowned and said, "The bidding should be clear and the real price should be ......"

Before he could finish speaking, Lin Song had already poured the soul crystals in the bamboo basket on the table with a bang, which must have exceeded sixty thousand.

"There are a total of 80,000 soul crystals here, all of them are bidding!"

With Lin Song's cold voice, there was a sound of inhalation in the audience, and no one thought that the little monk who thought it was insignificant would be able to take out so many soul crystals.

Old Tucker in the private room, his fists clenched, released again, and squeezed again. His soul crystals naturally exceeded eighty thousand, but if he spent too much on this Horcrux, he was afraid that it would be difficult to obtain an important item in the back, and that item was what he had to get.

"I'll give up!" old Tucker still had the upper hand of reason. He glared at Lin Song fiercely and chose to give up. But he was muttering in his heart, "This kid is hiding his head and tail, I don't know who it is?" If you can find out, it's a poor monk with little power, hmph, just find an opportunity to kill him directly." ”

Lin Song got this Horcrux as he wished, and Lin Song only felt very light when he held it in his hand. These eight pieces of metal add up to less than half the weight of their own dart Horcruxes, which shows that the material of this Horcrux must be precious.

The auction continued, and more valuable items appeared one after another, and Lin Song's price of 80,000 was quickly broken. In particular, the last few items are rare treasures, which have caused a wave of auction fever, and the prices are sky-high.

At the end of the auction, Old Tucker got the Horcrux he needed. He immediately focused his attention on Lin Song's location and wanted to send someone to follow him. However, at this time, it was discovered that Lin Song had long since disappeared.

At this time, Lin Song had already left Kuban City, and the Yin Soul Grass and the Horcrux had already arrived, so Lin Song had no need to stay. Leave early, so as not to be calculated by some people, this is the lesson Lin Song learned when he captured the soul beast.

Back at his home in Xibe City, Lin Song immediately began to cultivate, he took out a bottle of powerful soul-enhancing potion and drank it, and then chewed a Yin Soul Grass and ate it. When mixed with a soul-enhancing potion, it acts as a catalyst.

A moment later, streams of soul power fluctuated, emanating from Lin Song's body.

A day and a night passed, and Lin Song took seven potions in a row and ate seven Yin Soul Grasses. The candle flames in the soul space were extremely thick, and their color had changed from pale red to pink. At a certain moment, the flame suddenly diverged into a little fire, and the fire slowly lit up. Next to this candle flame, another flame finally appeared, it was also a pink flame, but it was very weak, as weak as when Lin Song had just entered the junior master.

Lin Song breathed a sigh of relief, he had finally reached the intermediate level of the disciple, although the newly generated flame was weak, it could slowly increase with cultivation.

Lin Song felt that his soul power had also improved significantly, and now there was no soul power testing instrument, but Lin Song estimated that his soul power should be around fifty.

Lin Song's soul power urged, the boomerang dart flew into the air in an instant, slowly spinning, Lin Song enhanced his soul power, and slowly, the tortoise shell also flew into the air, forming a defensive shield, and manipulating two Horcruxes at the same time, which was the sign of an intermediate master.
