Chapter 407: The Little Two Rites Array
After a brief introduction to the efficacy of the Elixir, Hong Fuji quoted the starting price.
"Two thousand spirit stones, a thousand good deeds!"
Hearing this price, there was a burst of inhalation from the audience.
Divine soul pills have always been expensive, and everyone has been mentally prepared, but this price is still beyond many people's expectations.
Some monks who wanted to bid for this pill also put down the half-raised sign, and the spirit stone could barely afford it, but a thousand good deeds, not everyone could take it.
"I'll give you two thousand two hundred spirit stones."
"I'll give you two thousand three."
"Two Thousand Four ......"
Despite this, there were still quite a few monks asking for the price.
At first, there were Qi Refining Realm cultivators involved, but after several rounds of offers, only the Foundation Cultivation Cultivators were left to compete.
The price of the Cleansing Spirit Pill soon came to 2,800 spirit stones.
At this moment, a clear voice said, "I will give out three thousand six hundred spirit stones!" ”
As soon as these words came out, the bidding stopped abruptly.
Everyone followed the prestige, and a young Qi Refining Realm cultivator made an offer.
"Who is this man? Cultivation is only in the middle stage of Qi refining, so rich? ”
"I don't know, maybe there is a financier behind it."
"I know, he is the big shopkeeper of Jindantang, it seems to be called Zhao Lin."
"It's no wonder, the business of the store is so good, I must have saved a lot of money......"
Everyone was talking, and Hong Buji saw that no one answered, and asked, "Are there any Taoist friends bidding?" ”
"I'll give you 3,700 spirit stones."
It was a middle-aged man who spoke, and Zhao Lin raised his eyes to look at the past, and it turned out to be a monk in the late stage of foundation building.
"Three thousand seven."
Zhao Lin held up the sign, and his face did not change.
If you can't get this Cleansing Spirit Pill, you will have to suspend your cultivation and concentrate on dissolving your inner demons, which will take at least a year or two.
Time is life, and Zhao Lin is determined to win this.
Because of the merit of running the store, at the end of last year, Lu Yuanxiu allocated a large amount of dividends to Jin Dantang, and Zhao Lin alone received 2,000 good deeds.
Coupled with the usual fortune, he has accumulated nearly 3,000 good deeds in hand.
"Three thousand eight." The middle-aged man immediately followed.
"Three thousand nine!"
"Four Thousand ......"
The price has risen all the way, and neither of them will give up.
The monks in the field couldn't help but be amazed, today there was actually a scene of bidding between the monks in the middle stage of Qi refining and the monks in the late stage of foundation building.
Zhao Lin frowned secretly, he was afraid that if he continued like this, he would provoke the anger of the other party, and as a result, both sides would lose and the auction hall would be cheaper.
"It can't be consumed any longer!"
Thinking of this, Zhao Lin said in a deep voice a price that shocked the monks in the audience.
"Five thousand spirit stones!"
As soon as this price was released, the monks in the auction hall were dumbfounded.
Five thousand spirit stones, correspondingly, two thousand five hundred good deeds.
You must know that the Zhuji Pill is only worth 10,000 good deeds, and this amount of good deeds has exceeded the normal price of the Cleansing Pill.
The middle-aged man who was bidding with Zhao Lin had a sinking face and stared at Zhao Lin.
With a gentle smile on his face, Zhao Lin arched his hand towards the other party.
Seeing this, the middle-aged man knew that Zhao Lin was not fighting with him, his face softened, and he simply put down the brand in his hand and stopped quoting.
Zhao Lin secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
"You junior, where did you get so many good deeds?"
Liu Chaoyuan came over, his tone was full of sourness, as the shopkeeper of Linglong Pavilion, he couldn't make up so many good deeds for a while.
"The family is gone."
Zhao Lin responded with a wry smile, and his heart was also in pain.
This price is much higher than expected, but the auction is like this, the same item, at different times, on different occasions, the price can be very different.
After buying this Cleansing Pill, there is not much left of good deeds, but fortunately, the business of the store is prosperous, and at the end of the year, I can get another dividend to continue to support my cultivation.
While thinking about it, I suddenly felt like a man on my back.
Zhao Lin's heart sank, and he glanced back, but saw Tian Daozhong smiling and arching his hand to him, congratulating himself on winning the treasure.
"Okay, the Cleansing Pill has a home, fellow Daoists look at this piece of smoky stone ......"
As an auctioneer, he wants to see this kind of scene the most, so he hurriedly strikes while the iron is hot and introduces the next treasure.
Everyone turned their attention to the stage again, and Zhao Lin's mood gradually relaxed.
In any case, when the Elixir is in hand, I can see other people's quotations with the mentality of a bystander.
The treasures were auctioned one by one, and when it came to the twelfth treasure, Hong Buji's expression was whole and his voice was raised.
"Ladies and gentlemen, this is the last treasure."
The scene fell silent for a moment, and everyone wanted to see what kind of treasure appeared in the finale.
Zhao Lin was also curious, glanced at Chu Hongtian, and saw that he was sitting in a precarious position, his eyelids drooping slightly, and he didn't seem to care about the things on the stage.
I only heard Hong Buji continue: "This is a set of first-order formations that can be carried and arranged, small two yi formations!" ”
"This formation creates a mystery, showing the principle of the formation, don't look at it as just a first-order formation, but it is both offensive and defensive, and has the power to turn the world upside down, even if it is a Purple Mansion Realm monk, it is difficult to easily crack it."
"There is a way in hand for a while, and the world can go to ......"
For monks who don't understand the formation, the name of the small Liangyi array is relatively unfamiliar, but if you mention the Liangyi and Four Elephant Arrays to them, everyone will know it.
Two rituals give birth to four elephants, four elephants give birth to gossip, the mystery is endless, the changes are thousands,
The Liangyi Four Elephant Array is a well-known second-order formation, which has the ability to attack, defend, seal spirits, and illusions.
The small two-instrument array is a first-order magic array that evolved from the two-instrument four-elephant array.
Although the power is far from comparable, it has one advantage: it can be set up quickly.
Don't underestimate this benefit, the layout requirements of the circle are extremely strict, the more powerful the circle, the more complex the arrangement, and it must be accurately calculated and measured.
Zhao Lin arranged the simplest fog illusion array, measured with footsteps, and it still took an hour or two to arrange a large array to protect the mountain, and the time was usually measured in years.
Therefore, although the formation is powerful, it can only be prepared in advance, and the temporary fighting method cannot be counted on.
The small Liangyi array belongs to the outliers in the formation, and it only takes a few breaths to complete the arrangement!
Zhao Lin suddenly felt in his heart, no wonder three Purple Mansion monks came at once, it turned out that they were all running for the small two yi arrays!
Although the small Liangyi array could not withstand the attack of the Purple Mansion monks, it could delay for a moment, which was enough.
For high-ranking monks, the difference between a few breaths is the difference between life and death.
"This is the circle I want!"
The ninth grid of the spiritual cultivation map was still empty, and Zhao Lin had been hesitating, but at this time, he suddenly felt that he had suddenly made a decision.
"There is a saying that hearing is false, seeing is believing, please see ......"
After Hong Buer introduced the small two ritual arrays, he took out a formation plate and a four-pole array flag from a wide wooden box.
Take out a banner and throw it at will.
With a "whoosh", the array flag fell to the ground, as if a transparent silk thread was pulled on the top, and the javelin hung in the air.
Whoosh ......
The other three formation flags flew out one after another.
Hong Buji walked into the formation, pinched the formation, and activated the magic circle.
There was a flash of white light, enveloping the entire area.
Then the white light dissipated, and the auction table returned to its original state, only Hong Buji was nowhere to be seen, as if he had disappeared out of thin air.
Although the monks in the audience knew that it was a formation illusion, they were all surprised.
There are illusions in many formations, but only on the inside, and you can see the clues at a glance from the outside.
The small Liangyi array created an illusion that was exactly the same as the original scene, but it just turned people into nothing.
Moreover, if you scan with your divine sense, or observe with the Qi Technique, you can only detect extremely subtle mana fluctuations, and if you don't pay attention to it, you will ignore the past.
At this time, another auctioneer on the stage stepped forward and said to everyone: "Brother Hong is now in the formation, it is inconvenient to demonstrate, I will try it for you." ”
After speaking, he took out a cone-shaped magic weapon from the lock bag and slammed it towards the magic circle.
"Bang!"
The attack of the magic weapon sank into the sea like a stone, and it did not set off a single wave, but the magic weapon itself was bounced back.
"Good formation!"
"Awesome!"
There was a chorus of praise from the audience.
However, most of the monks had calm faces, and they could see that the finale of such a magic circle must be sky-high, and they only had to watch the excitement.
The magic circle was attacked, and there was a burst of mana fluctuations, and Zhao Lin also sensed it, and four words appeared in the ninth grid of the spiritual cultivation map: Xiao Liangyi Array.
It's just that there are no petals next to the font, and Zhao Lin knows that this is because he didn't feel the formation at close range.
"The Little Liangyi Array is the proud work of the late formation master Lu Yunsheng, and it is scarce in existence, so don't miss the monks who fancy this treasure."
Hong Buji withdrew the magic circle, smiled and walked out and said.
Then the starting price was quoted: "Eight thousand spirit stones, five thousand good deeds." ”
There was an uproar at the scene, and the monks were stunned by this price, but Zhao Lin knew very well that this price was not expensive at all.
Without waiting for someone to quote, Zhao Linhuo stood up and said in a deep voice: "This formation is really good, but I am clumsy and can't understand the wonders, can I try it myself?" ”
Although I can't afford to buy a small Liangyi array, as long as I cultivate the formation pattern, I can reproduce it.
Hong Buer was stunned, frowned, and said: "This auction house has always only sold genuine products, and it has been demonstrated just now, do you think there is a fake in it?" ”
Zhao Lin smiled casually, "It's not that I don't believe it, but I've never come into contact with this kind of magic circle, and I just want to see it." ”
"It's not too much to know more about such an expensive treasure before bidding, right?"
"This ......"
Hong Buer stumbled in his mouth and said, "The small Liangyi array is matched with a set of formation techniques, if you don't pass the formation together, you need to practice for a while." ”
"The treasure auction is imminent, and I'm afraid it's too late to learn and sell now."
Zhao Lin smiled slightly, "That's really a coincidence, I happen to be a formation mage, and I know a little bit about the formation control technique." ”
Hong Buer was stunned, and another auctioneer hurriedly spoke out: "The small Liangyi array is exquisite, since you want to appreciate it yourself, please come up!" ”
"Good!"
Zhao Lin was also not polite, strode to the front of the stage, and took over the array plate and array flag in Hong Bu's second-hand position.
The diameter of the array disk of the small Liangyi array was about eight inches, which was one circle larger than that of the ordinary first-order magic array, and it was engraved with dense array patterns.
The array plate was coated with ink and silver, and it was impossible to get a glimpse of the whole picture, but even so, its complexity made Zhao Lin dumbfounded.
"No wonder the small two yi arrays are arranged quickly, it turns out that this is the case!"
Ordinary array disks only simplify the formation pattern, and when arranging the magic array, it is necessary to arrange the array stones or array flags through accurate measurement and calculation.
To take an inappropriate example, the traditional circle is like an old-fashioned camera, with aperture, shutter, sensitivity, focal length, white balance, focus, composition, ...... All parameters need to be adjusted by the photographer himself in order to take a satisfactory photo.
The small two ritual arrays are engraved on the array plate with all possible hexagram directions, and can be adjusted according to the position of the array flag, which is equivalent to a point-and-shoot camera.
Because of this, the array has become extremely complex.
Zhao Lin glanced at it twice, and his heart was in awe, how superb the skills of the formation mages who could draw these formations were!
Put down the array plate, and then look at the array flag, each flag is painted with sixteen array patterns, front and back, each side has eight array patterns.
The pattern of the four-pole formation flag varies.
In other words, there are a total of sixty-four formations in the small two ritual arrays!
"No wonder the small Liangyi array is scarce in the world, and it's too difficult to draw it!"
Zhao Lin's palm gently stroked the formation pattern on the array flag, and the spiritual diagram began to flash......
In less than half a cup of tea, a "chrysanthemum" with 64 petals appeared in the ninth grid.
"It's done!"
Zhao Lin cheered in his heart, and his face showed joy.
"This fellow Daoist, didn't you say you wanted to try the magic circle?"
Hong Buji saw Zhao Lin staring at the array plate and the array flag in a daze, and couldn't help but remind.
"It's rude, this formation is really mysterious, so much so that I am addicted to it."
Zhao Lin smiled apologetically.
Hong Buer heard Zhao Lin praise the magic array, and he was sure in his heart that he didn't smash the field, and said with a smile: "It's okay, Taoist friends, please." ”
Zhao Lin didn't delay any longer, and quickly threw out the four-pole formation flag, urging the formation trick and activating the formation.
With a flash of white light, Zhao Lin disappeared from the stage.
"Oops, it worked the first time."
"I opened my eyes today, and the small Liangyi array really lived up to its reputation."
"If it weren't for the shyness of my pocket, I would really like to buy it......"
The monks in the audience exclaimed.
Zhao Lin was in the middle of the formation, and he was clear about the situation outside.
Seeing this, he put away the magic circle, thanked Hong Buji, and walked off the stage quickly.
Hong Buer put the array plate and array flag back into the wooden box, raised his right hand and made a gesture: "Everyone has seen it, the small Liangyi array is worthy of its name, and now the auction begins!" ”
"I'll give eight thousand two hundred."
"Eight thousand four hundred."
"Eight thousand six hundred ......"
According to the rules of the auction, each increase must not be less than half of the starting price, so the price continues to rise by 200.
It was a few foundation building monks who began to bid for the price, and when the price came to nine thousand, three Purple Mansion monks also joined the auction.
When it came to the 10,000 mark, there were only three of them left.
"Eleven thousand."
"Twelve thousand."
"Thirteen Thousand ......"
Seeing that the faces of the three of them did not change, and they shouted the sky-high price without even blinking their eyelids, the monks present suddenly felt a sense of insignificance.
Zhao Lin also sighed, the realms were different, and the cultivation resources he had were not at the same level at all.
He didn't know about the other two Purple Mansion cultivators, Chu Hongtian was in charge of Chiwei Island and had an inexhaustible supply of spirit beads, so it was not strange to have such a net worth.
After several rounds of competition, the small Liangyi array finally arrived in Chu Hongtian's hands, and the transaction price was 18,000 spirit stones! (End of chapter)
