Chapter 67: Spirit Stones and Resources
On the second floor, in the box where the Tianjiao Club is located.
After a dead silence, a voice broke the silence.
Li Han's stiff face barely propped up a smile and said:
"It's just a cat, I don't know how many cats of this kind are in the whole Great Xia, and it doesn't necessarily belong to Mr. Shen."
As soon as the words fell, a gentle voice sounded in the box:
"No, she's Mr. Shen's cat, you see she's still greeting us."
Everyone followed their eyes to look at the floor-to-ceiling window on the third floor, and saw that the black and white kitten was excitedly waving its white gloves and small paws, and its smart heterochromatic eyes seemed to be greeting Wen Ya.
Bai Xue already had a good impression of this young lady who praised her cuteness, and with Xue Mingzhi's factor in it, she was naturally more interested.
The voice in the box fell silent again, and the smile on Li Han's face completely froze.
What was supposed to be a lively Tianjiao party became a little cold just because of a kitten that suddenly appeared.
Since the kitten was Mr. Shen's pet, it meant that Mr. Shen had gone to the box on the third floor, and Xue Mingzhi, who had been following Mr. Shen, must also be in the box.
The more than 30 Tianjiao people present here are not all members of the Tianjiao Society, and there are some people in the imperial capital who are not interested in the party or Yunfufang City, so they did not come here.
But even so, the more than thirty people in the box were still the most outstanding people in the Great Xia Aura Tide.
If they are pressed on top of their heads by those old sects and families, they will accept it calmly and think that they will have the opportunity to reach the peak in the future and establish their own family sect.
But being pressed on top of their heads by Xue Mingzhi, a junior who had just joined the Tianjiao Club, and who had been looked down on before, was difficult for them to accept no matter what.
After being silent for a long time, Qi Renyu broke the silence with a dry laugh.
"Coincidence, maybe it's just a coincidence."
"If that Mr. Shen has familiar connections, it is normal to be invited into the box on the third floor.
Relying on others to enter the box is nothing, relying on one's own ability to get the corresponding status is true. ”
Qi Renyu's words were strictly too far-fetched, but they were unanimously agreed by most members of the Tianjiao Association.
It's easy to admit that a strong person has always been strong, but it's hard to admit that a guy who was originally weaker than you suddenly became stronger, and everyone can only comfort themselves with the same tone of speech until they get used to it completely.
Wen Ya didn't pay attention to the fragile self-esteem of the members of the Tianjiao Society, but she knew very well that Xue Mingzhi was her own nephew.
My own juniors can have such connections, and Wen Ya, as an elder, is still quite happy in her heart.
It was under this complex mood that the atmosphere in the box began to gradually regain its lively atmosphere, and everyone exchanged their training experiences and anecdotes, while paying attention to the many things that were being traded in the hall.
Although most of Tianjiao were born in the imperial capital families, and their own cultivation was not weak, but in the early stage of the resource-scarce aura tide, the imperial capital families who only rose after the establishment of Great Xia did not have much cultivation background.
These imperial families may be able to easily mobilize tens of billions of resources in the mundane world and spend a lot of money on an antique plaything, but they are poor and pitiful at the level of cultivation.
Because the vast majority of imperial families had not experienced the last era of spiritual energy tides, the era of spiritual energy depletion had already arrived when Great Xia was established, and it was impossible to find any cultivation resources in this world.
And without the Cave Heaven and Blessed Land as a support, even if some remnants of spiritual stones and spiritual objects are found, they will not be able to survive the long era of three thousand years of spiritual energy depletion.
And in the more than half a year that this spiritual energy tide has just returned, most of the spiritual veins and spiritual stone mines have not yet recovered, and some important spiritual veins have been occupied in advance by large sects with cave heaven blessed land as early as three thousand years ago.
The spirit stone veins left to the Great Xia Imperial Court are extremely limited, not to mention those that can be divided into the hands of the imperial capital family.
The ancient sect needed a lot of spiritual energy to maintain the Cave Heaven Blessed Land, so before the spiritual energy tide arrived, it would accumulate mountains of spiritual stones and store them in the Cave Heaven Blessed Land, so as to survive the three-thousand-year period of spiritual energy depletion.
Now that the aura tide is gradually returning, the ancient sect no longer relies on spirit stones to maintain the aura in the cave heaven blessed land, and can use those spirit stones that have been stored from the last aura tide era to the present.
Although the number of these spirit stones left behind is not much, they are still left from the peak period after all, and they are definitely a huge wealth compared to the current production of spirit stones in Great Xia.
The Great Xia Imperial Court occupies hundreds of small and medium-sized spirit stone veins in Great Xia, and can use the spirit stones that have just been mined. And with the return of the aura tide, there are still a large number of spiritual stone veins in the territory that continue to recover, which can be regarded as a good heritage.
Only the Imperial Capital family, although it controls a large number of secular resources, can almost be said to be the poorest force in terms of cultivation resources, and it can't even catch up with a large family like the Qingzhou Liu family that dominates a state in the local area.
Don't look at these Tianjiao who are good-looking, but if they really let them take out spirit stones, they can already be regarded as rich people who are worth a lot of money if they can have more than ten spirit stones, and this is basically sponsored by the family at a cost of blood.
This kind of financial resources is naturally not bad compared to the ordinary cultivators in the hall, after all, the price of spiritual objects at this stage is not expensive, and more than ten spirit stones can buy a lot of good things.
can be dwarfed by the second and third floors of these sect families participating in the auction.
The free trading hours below did not last long, and the noise gradually subsided, and a large circular platform began to rise in the center of the hall.
Yan Xiao slowly flew to the center of the high platform, holding a small hammer and gently striking on the bronze ancient bell.
"Buzz!"
Invisible sound waves spread in all directions, and all sounds in the originally lively hall were completely suppressed, and the scene fell silent.
In the box of the Tianjiao Club, many Tianjiao saw it, and many people subconsciously exclaimed:
"Magic weapon!"
"No, it's a strange treasure that the spirit treasure has fallen to the magic weapon level."
"It's worthy of Laojun Mountain, just take out a treasure of this level, it seems that this auction is worth looking forward to."
"It's like you can shoot it."
On the high platform, Yan Xiao looked around the entire venue and said loudly:
"The free trade has come to an end for the time being, and now it's time to enter the auction transaction."
A maid dressed in palace attire ascended the platform, and the elaborate wooden box in her hand was opened, and inside was a string of silver-white bells woven with red strings.
"This is the first lot of this fair, the standard magic weapon of the Yin and Yang Hehuan Dao, the Hehuan Bell."
As soon as these words came out, there was an uproar in the entire trading venue, and even Shen Yuan couldn't help but look at the high platform.
"I didn't expect Lao Junshan to spend so much money, and the first thing is such a treasure."
In the box, only Xue Mingzhi asked Shen Yuan with a blank face:
"I've heard of Yin and Yang Hehuan Dao, but what is Hehuan Bell?"
Shen Yuan glanced at Xue Mingzhi with a strange expression: "Don't you look at the forum?" ”
Xue Mingzhi replied honestly: "I basically only read the answers to the questions about cultivation in the mutual aid area on the Ask the Question Forum, and I basically practice the rest of the time, and I rarely pay attention to these. ”
Shen Yuan was still a little surprised that Xue Mingzhi was actually a cultivator.
In this regard, Shen Yuan could only open his mouth to explain:
"Although the reputation of the Yin-Yang Hehuan Dao is not good, among all the sects and Dao systems in Great Xia, the Yin-Yang Hehuan Dao is the ancestor of many Taoist inheritances, and it has an extremely long history of inheritance.
The strength of Yin Yang Hehuan Dao itself is also extraordinary, even much higher than that of Laojun Mountain. ”
"The Hehuan Bell was born 10,000 years ago, and it is the magic weapon of the Yin-Yang Hehuan Dao, and only the inner disciples are eligible to apply to the sect to receive it.
Although the Hehuan Bell is a magic weapon, it can bless spells such as bewitching the gods, seizing spirits, and ecstasy, and also has the ability to kill sound waves, even if it is placed among many magic weapons, it is also an extremely excellent category.
The biggest value of the Hehuan Bell is not its blessing on spells, but as a standard magic weapon, the Hehuan Bell has a very special effect, that is, it is engraved on its magic weapon, and there is a certain probability that it will be promoted to a spiritual treasure. ”
"Promotion Lingbao!" Xue Mingzhi's eyes widened, and there was a tremor in his voice.
Not to mention the spiritual treasures in today's Great Xia, even the magic weapons are very few, and even the Changchang Boxue family only has two magic weapons.
A magic weapon needs hundreds of spirit stones, which is enough to see the preciousness of the Hehuan Bell.
Shen Yuan was very indifferent to this: "Don't worry, if this Hehuan Bell can really be promoted to Lingbao Laojun Mountain, it will be left a long time ago, since it can be taken out for auction, there must be certain problems." ”
Sure enough, just after Shen Yuan's words fell, Yan Xiao opened his mouth to explain:
"Everyone, please be calm, this is indeed a genuine Hehuan Bell, but due to the dissipation of the spiritual essence over a long period of time and has fallen to the level of magic weapons, it is not yet known whether it can exert the true effect of the Hehuan Bell.
But Laojun Mountain can guarantee that the inscriptions and materials of the Hehuan bell itself are intact, but the corresponding spiritual essence is missing. ”
"If any of the refining masters present are confident and can buy this Hehuan bell for repair, once it is successful, its value will inevitably increase a hundred times.
Even if it can't be repaired, it can get a trace of the Yin and Yang Hehuan Dao inheritance, and it is worth the money. ”
Yan Xiao's words were like pouring a basin of cold water on everyone's hearts, extinguishing the flame that ignited in everyone's hearts.
Yan Xiaoye didn't care, and his high-pitched voice echoed throughout the auction hall.
"The starting price of Hehuan Bell, one hundred spirit stones!"
The starting price of a magic weapon is one hundred spirit stones, which is an unimaginable number for everyone in the Tianjiao Society's box.
In the other boxes on the second floor, the families of the various sects also frowned, weighing the pros and cons, unable to confirm whether it was worth buying a Hehuan bell that I didn't know if it could be repaired with a hundred spirit stones.
At this moment, a slightly trembling voice sounded from the box on the third floor.
"A thousand spirit stones!"
