Chapter 33: A Hundred Years of Chalcedony
"I believe that those who often come to our auction know that the last three treasures are related to the foundation building period, don't you want to know what is in the last three boxes?" Zhao Ming pretended to look at everyone mysteriously and said.
Under his rhetorical question, the eyes of the monks present were attracted to the three jade boxes he took out at the end.
The things that were taken out before were already considered expensive, and they were rare on the market, and the last three jade boxes were definitely still on top of the treasures in front of them.
Although it was certainly not something they could afford to buy, many monks were interested in seeing it.
I saw a black-robed monk stand up and say:
"Shopkeeper Zhao, hurry up and take it out for us to open our eyes!"
"yes, yes!"
Under the impetus of several well-intentioned people in the field, the atmosphere in the venue instantly became active, and the monks who learned the news were even more geared up, excited, and ready to bid.
Lin Chen glanced at the lively crowd and sat calmly.
Unlike those who watched the excitement, Lin Chen really wanted this thing, but he didn't think about buying it, after all, the things he wanted would arrive in his hands sooner or later, so why spend that unjust money?
"Don't worry, let's take it out now!" Zhao Ming made a calm gesture to everyone, then turned his head and walked to the jade box and opened one of them.
As the jade box opened, everyone's eyes instantly converged on the contents inside, and it could be said that even the monks in the private room present looked at it.
I saw that Zhao Ming took it out and it was still a well-preserved jade box.
In front of everyone, Zhao Ming slowly opened the jade box, and the moment it was opened, a rich aura overflowed.
When the lid of the box was fully opened, a piece of crystal clear jade appeared in front of everyone's eyes, and unlike other jade, this jade emitted strong spiritual power fluctuations.
And just after the jade was revealed, the monk who had been prepared in the private room on the second floor stood up all of a sudden, his eyes full of surprise.
"Centennial chalcedony! It's actually a hundred-year-old chalcedony! A knowledgeable monk shouted incoherently.
As everyone knows, jade can nourish people, and spiritual chalcedony not only contains majestic aura, but also warms the meridians of monks and repairs their bodies.
And the chalcedony, which has been cultivated for a hundred years in a place with abundant aura, has a powerful effect.
Not only can it help those monks whose foundations are damaged to repair their bodies, but it can even save the lives of monks who fail to break through when they hit the foundation building period!
Although it is not yet a foundation-building spiritual object, it is not much worse!
"Haha, I believe some Taoist friends have already seen it, yes, it is a hundred-year-old chalcedony, a spiritual object that can preserve the foundation and even life when the impact of the foundation building fails!"
After getting Zhao Ming's affirmation, there was another exclamation from the audience, all of them were admiring the auction's generosity, and even such spiritual objects were taken out!
Just when everyone in the arena was a little out of control, the terrifying spiritual pressure was enveloped again, and a majestic voice came from behind the stage.
"In view of the fact that the things to be traded next are too special, I hope you will all follow the rules of the workshop, otherwise you will bear the consequences!"
Under the pressure of the foundation building monks, some of the monks on the field also settled down, and they could only bid honestly.
Zhao Ming glanced at everyone in the audience, smiled slightly, and put his mind at ease, after all, he was really worried that something would happen when he handled such a valuable thing.
"Everyone should know the danger of impacting the foundation building period, and with this thing, it is equivalent to leaving a back road!"
"This is the most precious thing, I am sure you all know. Okay, without further ado, the auction will start now. ”
"Building a foundation for a hundred years of chalcedony, the starting price is three thousand spirit stones!" Zhao Ming raised the jade box in his hand and said loudly.
As soon as the words fell, I heard a hurried voice from the private room.
"Three thousand three hundred spirit stones!"
After hearing someone bidding, the audience was shocked, and they had to marvel at the other party's handwriting, and directly increased the price of three hundred spirit stones!
This made it very difficult for the monks and casual cultivators of the Qi cultivation family present to be very difficult, originally they had saved up the spirit stone for decades, and they still wanted to buy this jade stone with a broken heart. As long as the foundation can be built, then the spirit stones invested in the early stage are worth it!
But now some monks have directly raised the price to 3,300 yuan, and there are already many people who can't afford it.
After all, an ordinary monk, without the blessing of cultivating immortals, can earn more than 300 spirit stones a year at most, and he has to use them for various consumption, with 3,000 spirit stones, for many people, it is indeed a huge amount of money.
"Three thousand four hundred!"
"Three thousand five hundred!"
The shouts echoed in the auction hall, and the shouts were often the people who gathered together, obviously belonging to the same forces, after all, one scattered cultivator could not gather so many spirit stones.
Just when everyone thought that these forces of unknown origin were going to raise the price again, a very abrupt voice came from the hall.
"Three thousand six hundred!"
I saw that everyone present immediately looked in the direction of the sound, and saw that the person who was asking for the price was actually a black-robed monk sitting alone.
"Who is this, how can there be so many spirit stones? Could it be that he is a disciple of a great force? ”
"The disciples of the great power with so many spirit stones will lack the foundation spirit object, it must be ......"
A series of ill-intentioned gazes swept towards the black-robed monk, mixed with spiritual pressure, but the other party sat there with a calm face, making it impossible to see the depth.
For a while, many people in the hall were shocked, and they couldn't figure out which way the other party was.
Lin Chen, who was sitting not far away, frowned slightly, he always felt that this person had an inexplicable sense of familiarity, as if he had seen it somewhere.
'Could it be an acquaintance from the Qingyun Sect?' Lin Chen thought about it and felt that it was not impossible, after all, Xu Mengyun could find it, and others might not be able to find it.
However, he didn't think much of it, and quickly turned his attention to the auction table.
After all, the auction isn't over yet.
"Four thousand spirit stones."
"Four thousand five hundred spirit stones"
"Five thousand spirit stones" was quoted at this price, and in the private room on the right side of the hall, a monk stood directly in front of the window and said loudly.
"Everyone, please sell me a face, I'm a green ...... Burst! Before he could finish his words, he was directly beaten by a terrifying spiritual pressure and made him bleed.
It's the foundation building monk who has made a move!
Zhao Ming glanced at it coldly, and said with a gloomy face: "No matter who you are, here, you must abide by the rules of the auction hall!"
The monk who spoke out gritted his teeth and glanced at Zhao Ming with resentment, then he closed the window, turned his head to the person behind him and said, "Senior brother, he ......"
"What, you mean to let me come forward and help you take down this hundred-year-old chalcedony in the name of the sect?" In the private room, a monk wearing a cyan robe with a beautiful face sat on a bench, glanced at him lightly, and said lightly.
"Senior brother misunderstood." Although the other party's tone was very flat, the monk who spoke up was suddenly stunned, and a trace of cold sweat oozed from his forehead, "Senior brother just thinks that only senior brothers can have such treasures, so he lost his sense of proportion for a while." ”
After hearing this, the monk in Tsing Yi did not speak, but just looked at him quietly, but the latter couldn't help but swallow his saliva, and even subconsciously lowered his head.
"Do things in a measured way." The monk in Tsing Yi lightly accused, and then changed his words, "But even if you are at fault first, my people are not yet an outsider's turn to teach a lesson!" It seems that the sect is still too merciful, so that these people can't figure out their identity, it's time to knock it out! ”
In his opinion, even if his own people make mistakes, they should be punished by him, otherwise how can his prestige stand?
While the two were talking, the auction downstairs was also coming to an end.
In the end, a sturdy monk successfully bid for a hundred-year-old chalcedony at the price of 6,000 spirit stones.
Seeing this scene, both the other party and Lin Chen showed a satisfied smile.
"Determine the goal, it's time to do it......" Lin Chen's face showed an uncertain smile.
Lin Chen began to silently calculate the next move.
'I have set up surveillance at each exit, and I have even put down the jade spirit worm that can sense the breath of chalcedony, as long as he leaves the auction, he will ......
Thinking of this, Lin Chen's eyes showed a cold light.
A hundred years of chalcedony is related to his research and path, so no matter what, he has to get his hands, and for this reason, even if his hands are stained with blood, he will not hesitate to do it!
At the same time, the climax in the arena rose again, because Zhao Ming opened the second jade box, held it high, and said loudly:
"The next elixir to be auctioned is the Immortal Base Fruit! Of course, some people may not know about this elixir, but I believe that everyone must know about the elixir of Tsukidan! ”
There was a sudden silence in the audience.
"That's right, the Immortal Base Fruit is the main medicine for refining the Tsukidan, and it has the three successful effects of the Tsukidan!"
"What!" Everyone in the auction hall suddenly exclaimed.
Oh?
Lin Chen was slightly stunned, he didn't understand why the auction would not refine him into an elixir and instead take it out for auction.
'Could it be that the power of the auction, there is no second-order alchemist? No, it's unlikely, then the reason could only be that there is something wrong with this so-called fairy fruit......
Lin Chen didn't guess wrong. This immortal fruit was taken from a loose cultivator by the auction, and when it was taken, most of the medicinal effect had been lost, and the auction could only use it for sale.
After all, refining Zhuji Dan has requirements for medicinal efficacy, and the other elixirs invested are also very precious, if the amount of elixirs refined is not enough, it will also be a loss. So all things considered, it's better to sell it.
Most of the discerning monks on the field also saw the problem, but even if most of the potion was gone, it was still worth a lot, and it was robbed in the same way.
Soon, the Immortal Fruit was bought by the black-robed monk who Lin Chen suspected of knowing.
It's finally coming to an end, and it's time to get started...... Well?! ’
Just when Lin Chen was prepared, he was suddenly stunned, because at this moment, he heard an unexpected news!
"The next auction is the foundation building secret method - "Spirit Blood Foundation Building Method"!"
