Chapter 519 A strong start
The sudden appearance of Zhou Yiqiao and Cheng Yaojin caught all the monks participating in the auction by surprise.
Everyone's eyes were focused on him, and a large number of eyes collided with each other in the air, all of which seemed to be asking acquaintances about Zhou Yiqiao's identity.
Under the blazing gazes gathered by everyone, Zhou Yiqiao was neither sad nor happy, and remained unmoved.
He had just obtained the method of refining the Sword, Wind and Thunder Formation, and at this auction, Yujian was one of the most suitable spiritual materials for use as the formation flag, so naturally he was determined to get it.
Regardless of how much time it would take to refine the sword, wind and thunder formation if he gave up Hai Xinzhu's bidding this time.
The origins of these high-grade spiritual stones alone would not make Zhou Yiqiao feel any pain in his body because of his extravagant spending.
"This young master bids 1,500 high-grade spiritual stones, but which fellow Taoist is willing to bid?"
Li Fu saw that everyone present was silent and said.
After hearing Li Fu's reminder, several monks who were obviously still interested in competition immediately came back to their senses.
One of the middle-aged monks who looked over fifty stood up, stared at Zhou Yiqiao's back with burning eyes, and said.
"We are not like this little friend who can afford to use high-grade spiritual stones to bid."
"If not, we will exchange 12,000 spiritual stones for one high-grade spiritual stone according to the market price, and continue the bidding of Haixinzhu. What do you think, little friend?"
Zhou Yiqiao naturally didn't want to, but this person exerted pressure with great righteousness and tied all the other bidders to him in words. Even if Zhou Yiqiao was unwilling, he could only agree to this person's suggestion.
He turned around and stared at the middle-aged monk with an expressionless face. He didn't nod silently until the other person felt chills all over his body.
"Since you insist, then fine."
Seeing Zhou Yiqiao agree, the middle-aged monk breathed a sigh of relief.
He turned his head and gestured slightly to Li Fu, and then with a smile on his face, he asked to increase the price.
"I am willing to give you 1,600 high-grade spiritual stones!"
"One thousand and seven."
As soon as he finished speaking, Zhou Yiqiao's cold voice sounded immediately.
The middle-aged monk's face suddenly froze, and a flash of anger flashed in his eyes.
He thought that with his words, Zhou Yiqiao would definitely give up bidding with them out of fear of offending so many monks.
I didn't expect the other party to be so stubborn.
He secretly scolded Zhou Yiqiao for being stupid, but he still continued to bid without giving up.
"One thousand eight hundred high-grade spiritual stones!"
"two thousand."
Zhou Yiqiao's voice was still calm, as if he didn't take the other party seriously at all, and as if taking out these two thousand high-grade spiritual stones was as easy as eating and drinking for him.
The middle-aged monk's expression turned completely gloomy.
This price has exceeded the actual value of Haixinzhu itself.
Even if he really takes this object, it will be difficult to exchange it for benefits worth two thousand high-grade spiritual stones from the powerful hands of the Central Continent Holy Sect who need this object.
However, even so, he was not willing to lose this opportunity.
"Two thousand and fifty high-grade spiritual stones!"
He gritted his teeth and quoted a new price again.
"Two thousand and fifty-one."
Zhou Yiqiao's reaction was still so calm, but the price he shouted was full of humiliation.
"you......!"
At this moment, the middle-aged monk was finally annoyed. He was about to say something sarcastic, but when he saw Zhou Yiqiao's cold eyes, he trembled all over and swallowed his words back.
He knew very well that since he had already asked Zhou Yiqiao to agree to the suggestion of exchanging spirit stones, if he continued to bid any further, he would be a laughing stock.
After weighing the pros and cons, he kept Zhou Yiqiao's appearance firmly in his mind and immediately gave up the idea of continuing to bid.
Zhou Yiqiao naturally saw the other party's plan, but for him, this result was also within his expectation.
After all, without the support of a strong enough force, he would not dare to challenge the strange monks so blatantly.
Zhou Yiqiao took the initiative to pay the money and goods, and then bowed his hands to everyone.
"I am Zhou Yiqiao, the direct disciple of Elder Bai Gu of the Nether Demon Sect. Thank you very much for your love today."
"If you come to the Wasteland Bone Plains in the future, you can come to the Ten Thousand Bone Mountains to find me. Then I will do my best to be a landlord!"
After saying that, Zhou Yiqiao ignored the many monks in the venue, took the Haixin Bamboo in his hand, and flew away towards the Human Immortal Residence in full view of everyone.
Seeing Zhou Yiqiao leaving, all the monks present looked at his back with envy.
Including the middle-aged monk who competed with Zhou Yiqiao, many monks who had already had greed in their hearts suppressed their evil thoughts after hearing Zhou Yiqiao's self-report.
Nether Demon Sect!
A behemoth that no one dares to provoke in the entire Yongzhou.
Not to mention that Zhou Yiqiao is also the direct disciple of the sword-wielding elder of the Nether Demon Sect!
Who can offend someone with such an identity and background? !
"He turns out to be the direct disciple whom Taoist White Bones recently took over. He is truly a talented person!"
"Yes, I heard that the White Bone Taoist Master accepted a golden elixir disciple. Now, in just a few decades, he has been promoted to a Nascent Soul monk. He is really talented."
There are many compliments like this, and without exception, these people have given up on coveting Hai Xinzhu.
But even though Zhou Yiqiao had revealed his identity, there were still some desperate cultivators who quietly followed Zhou Yiqiao away with the mentality of giving it a try.
Zhou Yiqiao was naturally aware of it, but he did not stop him and allowed the other party to follow behind him.
In this regard, the monks who followed Zhou Yiqiao became more and more excited.
After all, in their eyes, how could a monk who had just been promoted to the Nascent Soul realm be a match for old monsters like them who had been immersed in the Nascent Soul realm for many years?
What's more, they are not alone, but formed a three-person team called 'Blood Fiend'.
"Huh, I'm just a young boy. I am only able to achieve what I am today thanks to the blessing of my master. I really think I am nothing!"
"When we kill him, snatch his storage ring, and escape into the Tianming Sea or go to the Demon Kingdom of Zhuzhou, even if the Bone Taoist Master is so powerful, he can't do anything to us!"
Their voices were not too quiet, and every word fell clearly into Zhou Yiqiao's ears.
He twitched the corner of his mouth and showed a cruel smile. He walked over a sea area that was not sparsely populated and suddenly stopped.
Ever since he revealed his identity in front of everyone, Zhou Yiqiao knew clearly that there must be such a monk who had no idea of his own interests and would covet his wealth even more.
As your strength becomes higher and higher, you can no longer easily avoid risks by hiding here and there. Only by showing your strength can you truly achieve success once and for all!
