Chapter 9: Stealing the Holy Void
Just when the competition in Taiyuan City Luoshen Villa was in full swing.
Zhongzhou Lanyin Mansion, Kun Lizong.
In the secret treasure house guarded by the Five Elements Sword of the Kun Li Sect, five top swordsmen sat in front of the gate of the secret treasure house.
There are no entrances and exits to the vault other than the gate.
Not even a single window.
These five swordsmen joined forces to compete with the top-grade Dacheng realm.
The secret vault rotates every three days, whether it is the Five Elements Sword or the Six Paths and Eight Vajra of the Kunli Sect, they are all monster combinations that can be combined to compete with the top grades.
And under such strict precautions, a black shadow quietly came behind the Five Elements Swordsman.
His whole being seemed to melt into the darkness.
The Secret Art of the Heavenly Sect [Brocade Night]
Before the Thief Saint entered the Secret Treasure Vault, he even glanced back at the Five Elements Swordsman, and there seemed to be a hint of provocation in his eyes.
This is that none of the Five Elements Swordsmen were aware of his existence.
All five were immersed in their own practice.
The next day, the sky was bright, and Fu Wenliu, the water line among the Five Elements Swordsman, slowly opened his eyes.
But the next moment, there was a look of shock in his eyes.
For the door of the vault was now completely wide open, facing him.
He didn't even have time to call the others, and he had already rushed into the secret treasure vault with a single arrow step.
The other four were awakened by his movements, and they all saw the secret treasure house where the door was open.
They all had the same expressions on their faces as Fu Wenliu.
Now it's a big deal.
Soon, Kun Lizong issued a bounty throughout the territory of Zhongzhou.
A bounty was offered for anyone who dared to enter their Kunli Sect to steal treasures.
The bounty is also very generous.
But it contains one of the top exercises.
However, under such heavy profits, not many of the Jianghu warriors who got the news really did it.
Because this bounty is not really a bounty.
Because Kun Lizong gave too much, but the information revealed was too little.
Such a bounty. It should not be called a bounty, but a stop order.
Seeing such a reward, people in the rivers and lakes should understand. They can't touch it.
This is also one of the unspoken rules in the rivers and lakes.
And sure enough, soon Kun Lizong himself took action.
Not only the Five Elements Swordsmen, but also the Six Dao and the Eight Vajra were all dispatched.
It was even rumored that someone saw the Dragon and Tiger Elders and the Yin and Yang Elders leaving the Lan Yin Mansion.
The rivers and lakes of Zhongzhou shook for a while.
I don't know what treasures Kun Lizong lost to make them send so many elites.
This force is enough to make the entire Zhongzhou tremble.
Two days later, a thief in luxurious costumes swaggered into Taiyuan City from the gate of Taiyuan City.
He came here to participate in the treasure appreciation meeting held in Taiyuan City.
Roselle Villa held a contest to recruit relatives with great fanfare.
I don't know how many heroes have gathered in Taiyuan City.
Everyone got together, and there was still some time before the day of the competition.
There are powerful organizations that have organized treasure appreciation meetings.
It is said that it is a treasure appraisal, but it is actually an auction.
There are no ready-made markets or trading places for people in the rivers and lakes, and they basically need to barter.
Or it is like in Taiyuan City, because of some reasons to gather a large number of warriors together.
At times like this, there are many middlemen who set up auctions or treasure connoisseurs.
Take a portion of the transaction fee.
Of course, such intermediaries are generally composed of more powerful forces.
Behind the scenes of the treasure appreciation meeting in Taiyuan City is the Linghu family, one of the eight masters of the rivers and lakes.
Liu Xin, who rested in the inn for two days, said that he was going to take Fang Zihang and Xiao Qi to participate in this treasure appraisal meeting.
Xiao Qi has been holding back for two days, and he has long been impatient.
Unfortunately, it will take a little time for the Treasure Appraisal to open, at least until it gets dark.
And because it was a treasure appraisal meeting held by the Linghu family, one of the eight masters of the rivers and lakes, there were many people involved.
Linghu's family directly contracted the most luxurious restaurant in Taiyuan City.
It is equivalent to that they have not yet made money, and they have already spent a lot of silver.
This kind of handwriting is in line with their status and status, and it can also attract more people to participate.
If you want to take out your treasure at the treasure appraisal meeting and let the big guy identify it, you already need to go to this restaurant at this time, and the Linghu family will take the first step to see the quality of the baby.
This is also so that the health insurance can continue normally.
Otherwise, cats and dogs can also come to the treasure appraisal meeting with some casual things, which will only lose the face of the Linghu family.
Of course, there is no requirement for the source of the treasure in such a treasure appraisal.
If there are any of them, most of them are unknown.
If the source is clear, there will be no auction at this kind of treasure appraisal.
The Linghu family is responsible for the first round of treasure appreciation, and it is a head of the family.
The Thief waited for half an hour, and finally it was his turn.
With a wooden box in his hand, he watched warily as he entered a small courtyard.
Almost all the people who came to get the treasure to be identified were like him.
But even if someone takes something worthless, he will still be like this, if you don't have this very vigilant, like the appearance of facing a great enemy, people may still think that your baby is not qualified.
The thief entered the small courtyard with the wooden box, and the person in charge was not surprised when he saw the appearance of the thief.
At this time, the whole person of the thief was shrouded in a black cloak.
I can't see the appearance at all.
However, nine out of ten of the people who came to send the baby for identification looked like this.
He's already seen it.
"Tell me a little about your baby."
The principal didn't raise his head and said directly.
The thief of the Holy Sky deliberately lowered his voice and said to the principal:
"It's better not to say it, my baby, you can just open it and take a look."
The principal snorted coldly, and he had seen a lot of tricks like stealing the Holy Void.
Still, he opened the wooden box himself.
But the moment he opened the wooden box, he froze in place.
The next moment he stood up directly and looked at the contents of the wooden box with some disbelief.
"This thing...... This thing ......."
"How? Can I do an auction? ”
The Thief asked with a smile, his tone full of determination and confidence.
"Yes, yes, really yes!
But this treasure is so precious that I need to ask for some information, and I also have to come and appraise it. ”
"No need!"
The thief said directly.
"Ahh
The principal was stunned on the spot.
Could it be that you took the treasure over to show off, and you are not going to auction it here, right?
The person in charge was already thinking so.
But the next moment, his jaw dropped even more.
I saw the thief take out one of the treasures from the wooden box and hand it to the principal.
"You just need to help me register the quantity, and I will leave you a treasure for you to slowly identify."
With this one, you should also believe that several other pieces are genuine! ”
"Of course. Of course! ”
The principal hurriedly responded.
Generally speaking, there will be treasures in the auction of treasure appraisal meetings like theirs, and the owner will bring the treasures to them to verify the authenticity.
Once the authenticity is confirmed, they will put the treasures in the list and take them out one by one at the treasure appraisal meeting.
Of course, this is also to better control the rhythm of the whole treasure appraisal meeting.
They know in advance how precious the treasure is, so they can rank it.
It's a mess, but there's no way to squeeze out the value of the baby.
Gotta get some tricks.
But the master had never seen anyone leave their treasures with the organizers of the Treasure Appraisal Society.
Generally speaking, after the owner of the treasure takes the treasure out for you to identify, he will take the baby away, and when the treasure appraisal meeting begins, they will show up and hand the baby to the organizer.
There's a trust issue involved.
Trust in the rivers and lakes is one of the most valuable things.
Being able to gain the trust of a person or a force is absolutely inextricable.
The thief was very arrogant and left a treasure.
However, the other treasures in the wooden box also knew that the origin of this thing must be unknown, but he also knew that once this thing really appeared at their treasure appraisal meeting, it would definitely cause a sensation.
Perhaps the momentum they created would not be much weaker than that of Roselle Villa.
When this matter was reported to the head of the Linghu family, the head of the Linghu family directly convened a meeting of the whole clan.
After a heated discussion, the head of the fox family finally slapped the table and decided to auction these treasures.
At the same time, he began to contact some allies.
After all, if you want to auction this treasure, you have to offend some people and some forces.
He alone made the fox family a little struggling.
However, such a well-known force as them will have some allies to some extent.
With the help of their allies, even if it was something like the Holy Sect Evil Alliance, they were not afraid.
At this time, the Linghu family master did not know how much disaster his decision would bring to him and his allies.
Because the Linghu family's treasure appraisal will have obtained this batch of treasures, it has increased its publicity.
It also replaced the most luxurious restaurant originally set in Taiyuan City with a military camp in Taiyuan City.
It's not just about spending some money.
This already shows that the Linghu family has spent a lot of effort and invested a lot of favors. This is what will allow them to hold the treasure appraisal meeting in the barracks.
The barracks can protect the safety of the people participating in the treasure appraisal meeting, and secondly, it also increases the credibility of the public.
This news swept the entire Taiyuan City in a very short period of time.
Even Roselle Hill got the news.
The owner of the second faction of Roselle Villa sent a young Tianjiao with similar talent to 002, and this time how many treasures did the Linghu family hold to make them pay so much attention to it.
All of a sudden, the people in the rivers and lakes near Taiyuan City heard the wind.
And the Linghu family also directly raised the threshold for participating in the treasure appraisal meeting.
Of course, as long as you are from the rivers and lakes, you can still participate in the treasure appraisal meeting, but the Linghu family divides the treasure appraisal meeting into two gears.
The lower one is still held in the original restaurant, and anyone can participate, of course, the level of treasures will be much lower.
The higher level is in the military camp, and the participants must be cultivators of the high-grade Dacheng realm, or disciples of big sects or big forces that can be recognized by the Linghu family.
At the same time, even if it is such an identity, it is still necessary to have a protector of the Dacheng Realm to be able to participate.
At first glance, it feels like this condition is quite harsh.
But this is such a request, not only did not stop anyone, but also made some people who didn't have much interest in it come to interest!
Because the various actions of the Linghu family show that there may be ...... at this treasure appraisal meeting
Forbidden!
The so-called forbidden items are also the treasures in those major sects, which are obtained through some unknown channels.
This kind of treasure generally comes from a powerful sect force, and only rumors of these treasures are circulated in the rivers and lakes on weekdays.
It is a treasure that most Jianghu people want to get and can never get.
But since it can appear at the treasure appraisal meeting, it means that this kind of treasure can be bought with money.
This kind of treasure not only did not have the slightest attraction to ordinary casual cultivators, but was even a deadly poison for them.
Because once you obtain this kind of treasure, but you don't have the ability to keep the treasure, you will face the revenge of the treasure source sect or the force.
But if you take a picture of this treasure, it is suitable for this sect and has the same strength.
Then congratulations, you've got a treasure and you don't have any burdens.
In fact, no matter what you came from here, stolen, robbed or cheated, it means that you are not capable of protecting your own treasure, and it is no wonder that no one else.
And since other people can shoot this kind of treasure and have the ability to keep him, it means that he deserves it.
This is the underlying logic in the rivers and lakes.
In fact, to put it bluntly, whoever has the biggest fist will listen to whomever he wants.
And Liu Xin, who heard the news, was even more interested.
Because the Linghu family makes more noise about this treasure appraisal meeting, maybe the more likely Liulang is to appear in this treasure appraisal meeting.
Liu Xin still vaguely felt that Liulang might have something to do with this Linghu family.
Of course, the Linghu family was not originally in Taiyuan City.
However, this time Roselle Villa held a competition to recruit relatives, and almost the entire Linghu family appeared here.
And Liulang appeared in Taiyuan City during this time period.
According to Liu Xin's analysis, Liulang either came specifically to participate in the competition of Roselle Villa to recruit relatives.
However, this is a little less likely than the second possibility.
That's the reason why Rokuro is here, mainly because of the Linghu family.
A martial arts competition to recruit relatives, Liu Xin really can't understand what Rokuro will have to do with it.
On the contrary, it is the Linghu family, which is all Linghu, and there are more possible connections here.
Therefore, Liu Xin, who had already set off, directly took 002 and Xiaoqi to the barracks directly.
Before coming to the barracks, the place was already overcrowded.
The number of warriors in Taiyuan City may have reached tens of thousands.
The name of Roselle Villa is too loud.
And it's a gimmick like a martial arts competition.
The people in the nearby rivers and lakes basically came to see the excitement.
In addition, the Linghu family did this play, which stimulated everyone's enthusiasm.
Although there were many warriors present, it can be said that most of them were not qualified to enter the barracks to participate in this treasure appraisal meeting.
But that can't stop everyone from coming over to see the excitement.
Many of the people who were eligible to enter the barracks to participate in the treasure appraisal meeting had already negotiated with people from outside.
They will relay what is happening in real time.
You know, a treasure auction like this is very likely to lead to a bloody case.
If two or more people fight for a treasure and the blood rushes to the brain, they will become brainless, and then they are likely to fight outside after the treasure appraisal meeting is over.
Although this time the Linghu family also took this into account, so they moved the venue to the barracks, and there were military guards outside, at least it would make people calm.
But how can people in the rivers and lakes really calm down completely?
It's really emotional, and I can't stop the king of heaven when he comes.
Liu Xin and the others all showed their cultivation in the Dacheng Realm, and they easily obtained the qualifications to enter.
Just kidding, if the three Dacheng Realm, none of them are qualified to enter, who is still qualified to enter.
After entering the barracks, Liu Xin found that it was a huge military tent.
Generally speaking, this is for the Lord's general.
This size covers an area that is several times larger than that restaurant.
Although it does not have the luxurious facilities of a top-notch restaurant.
But it's a big place.
Jianghu people like atmospheric things.
The head of the Linghu family came to the stage every once in a while to say the last paragraph.
The main purpose is to make everyone have the patience to wait, and at the same time, it is also to announce how long it will take for the treasure appraisal to officially start.
Of course, the main one will also leak some, and the treasures that may appear on this treasure appraisal meeting.
However, Liu Xin found that no matter which one was in charge, he would bring it up.
"The treasure of the finale of this treasure appraisal meeting is not simple.
Therefore, it will be placed at the end, and the bidding method for the finale baby will be a little different.
At that time, we need all the bigwigs who are interested to come to our secret room one by one, and we will show this treasure, and the way of bidding is also hidden.
The winner of the final price will be the winner, and the winner can choose to reveal his identity or hide it. ”
As soon as this rule came out, it immediately attracted the interest of most people.
Most people think they've guessed right.
Sure enough, this finale is likely to be the treasure of some powerful force.
As soon as I thought of this, some of the big people here began to get restless.
The forces that Liu Xin saw and recognized included the other two of the eight families of the rivers and lakes, and they were also relatively close to Luoshen Villa.
The Wu family and the Mei family.
At the same time, he also saw the head of the Red Sleeve Dart of the Yuanwei Dart Bureau, as well as the warrior of the second of the eight attached sects of the Martial Emperor City.
There are no less than ten other sects or families second only to these top forces.
If these forces were combined, even the Holy Sect would have to avoid them.
It can be said that in the ranking of rivers and lakes in Liu Xin's heart, these forces can be ranked in the top 50 of the righteous path.
In every faction, there has been a Grandmaster-level martial artist.
The Grandmaster level here refers to the founding of the sect.
It doesn't just refer to cultivation.
However, the level of the grandmaster who can start the sect is at least the top grade.
These strengths should not be underestimated.
What is the so-called treasure at the bottom of the box of the Linghu family, not only aroused Liu Xin's interest.
Even Fang Zihang, who had a relatively cold temperament, couldn't help but feel a trace of curiosity in his heart.
Xiao Qi was even more starry with stars in his eyes.
A spear wrapped in a cloth leather was saddled behind him.
At this time, he sat down and placed it beside him, one hand clenched tightly.
Although Xiao Qi's enthusiasm for practicing marksmanship was not too high, Liu Xin forced him to practice all the way.
But none of this can alleviate his love for a spear.
The most important thing is that this is given by my senior brother.
Several other senior brothers did not have this treatment.
