Chapter 268: The Auction Opens
Although the detailed investigation of the young people in Cloud City had come to an end for the time being, Ye Tian still felt a sense of impending wind and rain, so after walking a few streets, he re-entered the Infinite World in a secluded alley, and let the Shadow Demon go out to participate in the Cloud Auction.
What Ye Tian didn't know was that his caution saved his life, and when the Shadow Demon entered the large auction hall of the Cloud Auction, a faint fluctuation swept over him, and after discovering that he was just a demon, that vague fluctuation quietly swept towards others.
The reason why the Cloud Mist Chamber of Commerce dared to scan the monks who came to participate in the Cloud Mist Auction was because this entrance was all for casual cultivation, like those large sects and families, they all took the VIP channel, and they would not enter through the public entrance of the scattered cultivation at all.
The Shadow Demon is Ye Tian's Demon Servant, and he has also cultivated Ye Tian's "Three Turns Divine Sense Knife", plus there is a spiritual connection between the Demon Servant and the master, so there is no need for Ye Tian to probe his Divine Sense outside the Infinite World, he can use the Shadow Demon's perspective to know everything that happens in the outside world.
As soon as he entered the large auction hall of the auction, Ye Tian was a little dizzy, the places where these scattered cultivators sat were all halls on the first to third floors, and millions of monks crowded the halls on the third floor below, looking at all kinds of alien monks with different appearances, it was like opening an exposition of all races.
For monks who participate in the Cloud Mist Auction as a casual cultivator, the qualifications required by the Cloud Mist Chamber of Commerce are not high, each person only needs to pay a deposit of one million spirit stones, and even the specific identity information does not need to be registered, just a simple quotation is issued and released.
Ye Tian also observed the quotation in the hand of the Shadow Demon, and saw a 1356941 number engraved on the back, which should be the number of the auctioneer, and a blank space on the front, which was probably used to depict the price.
Despite the large number of people, the order of the auction hall is not bad, and everyone is a monk with good cultivation, so naturally it will not be as chaotic as when they go to the vegetable market. Most of the conversations between peers are also carried out by means of sound transmission, and even if there are people who speak loudly, they try to keep their voices as low as possible, and no one wants to be looked down upon by others.
With the shadow demon staring at the outside world, Ye Tian naturally didn't have to worry, he cultivated cross-legged in the Infinite World, quietly waiting for the moment when the auction opened.
Three hours later, with the sound of a crisp musical instrument percussion, the curtain in front of the auction hall slowly opened, and a middle-aged man with an elegant face appeared on the auction table, smiling and bowing his hand to everyone in the audience, and then said loudly: "Thank you friends for coming to cheer, I am the president of the Southern Cloud Mist Chamber of Commerce, I won't say much nonsense, the cloud auction will start now, I wish all friends can buy what they like." ”
The cloud aura is powerful, it should be a great cultivator in the late stage of the Tianyuan Realm, so he naturally disdains to make any long speeches, and the short opening remarks are enough to show his arrogance, as well as the atmosphere of the Cloud Mist Chamber of Commerce.
After the cloud exited, an old man with white hair came to the auction table, he claimed to be the chief auctioneer of the Cloud Chamber of Commerce - Guo Ziyi, and he presided over the auction this time.
Guo Ziyi didn't talk much nonsense, and after a brief introduction of himself, he said with a smile: "In order to set off the atmosphere, I decided to bring something good to stimulate everyone first, so that my friends can boil their blood and contribute to the next bidding." ”
Although Guo Ziyi's words were simple, they attracted the attention of most of the people in the audience, and even Ye Tian, who was hiding in the Wuji World to cultivate, also observed Guo Ziyi with the help of the shadow demon's senses to see what good things he was going to throw.
Smack!
Guo Ziyi lightly slapped his palm twice, and a scantily dressed rabbit girl walked up to the stage, holding a jade plate on her white jade palm, and there was a beautifully carved seal in the jade plate, and I don't know what kind of material it was made of.
There are very few ordinary people who come to participate in the auction, and naturally they will not pay attention to the plump rabbit girl, but appreciating beauty is an instinct that any creature has, even the powerhouses of the Tianyuan Realm are no exception, and it is of course much better to use such a beautiful woman to hold things up for auction than to let an old woman come up.
Guo Ziyi took the jade plate in the hand of the rabbit girl, pointed to the seal on it, and said with a smile: "Friends, please see, this seal is actually a magic weapon, and it is not an ordinary magic weapon, it is sealed with a spiritual field inside, and it is a space magic weapon that can be carried around." ”
Airplanes!
Before Guo Ziyi's words fell, the large auction hall of millions of people immediately became noisy, and although most people thought that the first lot would not be too simple, they did not expect it to be such a treasure. What is the concept of an elixir garden that can be carried around, even if it is not used to grow elixir, it can be used as space equipment. And unlike ordinary space equipment, this is a space magic weapon that can accommodate living creatures, and its value is so high, I'm afraid that ten ordinary space equipment combined are not as good.
Guo Ziyi saw that everyone's emotions were mobilized at once, nodded slightly with satisfaction, and continued: "Don't get excited, everyone, I haven't finished my words yet, I just talked about the benefits of this space magic weapon, and I haven't had time to tell you about its drawbacks." ”
Speaking of this, Guo Ziyi paused slightly, giving everyone a time to digest, and then continued: "Its internal space area is not large, only ten square meters, and cultivators who have reached the innate realm cannot enter it, if the elixir is planted in it, they can only send a slave of the quenching realm to enter." ”
After listening to Guo Ziyi's full introduction, everyone present sobered up from their feverish excitement, and such a space magic weapon was in line with the imagination in their hearts. If there were no shortcomings mentioned by Guo Ziyi, then this space magic weapon would not be auctioned on the first day of the auction, but must be the finale of the auction.
"Okay, the reserve price of this space magic weapon is one million spirit stones, and the price must not be less than ten thousand spirit stones each time, and the auction will start now!" Guo Ziyi waved his arm downward, announcing the start of bidding.
Due to the large number of people, the auction naturally did not adopt the original method of loud bidding, and a huge light curtain hung directly above the auction table, on which the top 100 bidders were displayed.
Boom!Boom......
The numbers on the giant light curtain are constantly refreshed like rain, if the cultivation is a little low, it will not be clear at all, and in the blink of an eye, the asking price of this space magic weapon has already exceeded five million spirit stones, and the numbers on the light curtain are still constantly refreshing, it seems that there is still a lot of room for growth.
"It's over!" Ye Tian closed his eyes in pain, it was not that he was sorry that he couldn't buy this seal magic weapon, but he saw the scene of millions of bidders frantically bidding, and knew that it was almost impossible to get his hands on the Fountain of Life at the auction this time.
Ye Tian originally had a lot of spirit stones, especially the more than 100 top-grade spirit stones obtained from the Foreign Affairs Hall of the Southern Regions Sect, which made him very confident that he could bid for the Fountain of Life at the Cloud Auction, but he didn't expect that the old man Wuji would use up almost all of his spirit stones and most of the top-grade spirit stones when he was repairing the Wuji World, even though he had scavenged tens of millions of spirit stones from Jiao Wanli's housekeeper Lao Xu, but from the current bidding situation, it was like a fool's dream to auction the Fountain of Life.
Not to mention that during this period of time, Ye Tian had spent millions of spirit stones to frantically sweep goods in Cloud Mist City, and there were not many spirit stones on his body, and it was estimated that they would only add up to six or seven million at most.
If there are only these spirit stones, let alone buying the spring water of the Fountain of Life, I am afraid that even things that are a few grades lower than the Fountain of Life will not be able to be bought. Unless he is willing to take out the only dozen or so top-grade spirit stones left, he may still be qualified to bid at the auction of the Fountain of Life.
"This is not good, according to the current situation, there is no hundreds of millions of spirit stones to lay the foundation, there is no hope of bidding for the fountain of life, we must think of a way to get more spirit stones, otherwise this cloud auction will be in vain." ”
Thinking of this, Ye Tian, who had always been calm, couldn't sit still, and no longer had the intention of watching who the magic weapon of the seal space was, so he passed on the sound and shadow demon and let him leave his seat and walk towards the service desk on the side of the auction hall.
The Shadow Demon opened the "Hidden Demon Technique" and wore a mask to isolate the detection of divine sense, which was very normal in the auction house, and many people were reluctant to reveal their identities, so Ye Tian was not worried about attracting the attention of others. Shadow Demon, a guy who only has the cultivation of the Human Yuan Realm, is a follower at first glance, and no one will easily embarrass him.
Standing in front of the service desk of the Cloud Chamber of Commerce, the Shadow Demon said in a hoarse voice, "Excuse me, can I still send the goods now?"
A young service staff replied with a smile: "Yes, but not today, we can only arrange an auction in the next few days, our auction will be held for a total of seven days, if you want to send the goods, we have a professional appraiser can identify it for you." Excuse me, do you want to send the product?"
"Yes, but my goods are more expensive, can you find a quiet place to appraise them?" Shadow Fiend nodded slightly, agreeing to send the photo.
"Please follow me. The young waiter bowed slightly, led the shadow demon to a quiet room behind the service desk, and said to an old man sitting behind the counter: "Elder Wang, this guest has something he wants to send for a photo, please give it an appraisal." ”
After saying that, seeing the old man nodding, the young attendant withdrew, leaving the Shadow Fiend in the room.
The old man pointed to the counter expressionlessly, and said lightly, "Put the things here." ”
The Shadow Demon didn't speak, took out a jade box from his arms, put it on the counter in front of him, and gently pushed it forward, bringing the jade box closer to the old man, and then stood still, quietly waiting for the old man's identification.
Appraiser Wang casually put on a pair of snow-white gloves, moved the jade box in front of him in his direction, opened the lid of the jade box very casually, and looked into the jade box with a pair of cloudy old eyes.
