Chapter 293 Intermediate Spirit Talisman
In the central city of "Linhai City", Qin Tian was walking slowly outside a circular building covering a large area.
This place is the venue for major auctions in Linhai City, the "Linhai Auction House"!
According to the previous customs of "Linhai City", a large auction will be held every three years or so. At that time, all the major merchants in Linhai City will take out the rare treasures they have collected to attract monks from all over the world to bid.
Because of this, the treasures on the "Linhai Auction" are quite complete, and all of them are fine products. Even some Jindan powerhouses will occasionally visit this place.
As a result, the "Linhai Auction" has become extremely famous, but it has also caused the current situation where tickets are hard to come by.
But for Qin Tian, there is obviously no such concern.
After taking out the golden VIP jade talisman, Qin Tian was indeed treated favorably by the monks stationed at the auction house and was respectfully introduced into a second-floor elegant room.
Qin Tian did not refuse. After entering the elegant room and sending the attendants away, he began to sit cross-legged and wait for the auction to begin.
The auction venue on the first floor was already crowded with many peak Qi Refining and Foundation Establishment cultivators, making the entire venue extremely noisy.
On the second floor, there was a circle of elegant rooms surrounding the central auction venue. The doors were marked with numbers, and most of them were people with high cultivation and deep backgrounds.
After about another cup of tea, an old man in Taoist robes with white hair and beard, and a fairy-like appearance, slowly appeared on the auction floor, and the entire first floor hall gradually returned to silence.
After arriving, the old man first politely bowed to the surroundings of the venue, and then spoke loudly:
"I believe that all of you Taoist friends are familiar with the rules of the auction, so I will not elaborate on them. I just want to remind you that you must not cause trouble here, so as to avoid a difficult ending in the end!"
As he spoke, a powerful aura that was enough to reach the level of a fake elixir suddenly erupted from the Taoist robe old man and enveloped the entire venue.
Some of the late Qi Refining cultivators with low cultivation levels all had pale faces and fearful eyes!
Even some Foundation Establishment cultivators did not dare to look into the Taoist robe old man's fierce eyes.
But fortunately, this aura came quickly and went away quickly. It disappeared in just a moment, as if it had never appeared.
The old man beside the road quickly regained his amiable look, without any fierce intention, and announced loudly to the venue:
"Let's not talk too much, the "Linhai Auction" will start immediately, and the first treasure auction will start now!"
As soon as the voice fell, a row of beautiful female cultivators came out one after another, each holding a tray in their hands.
The leading female cultivator smiled and stepped forward to open the tray, revealing a stack of exquisite talismans on it.
It is not difficult to judge from the spiritual power fluctuations emanating from the talisman that it is equivalent to the power of mid-level magic, and it is a mid-level talisman used by foundation-building cultivators.
Seeing this, many foundation-building cultivators were slightly stunned, and then they could not hide the disappointment on their faces.
After all, although the mid-level talisman is also a precious treasure, it is obviously a bit inappropriate to put it in such a grand auction venue.
On the contrary, many cultivators at the peak of the late stage of Qi Refining all showed surprise on their faces, and looked eager to try.
The old man in Taoist robes on the auction table explained at the right time:
"According to common sense, the mid-level talismans are indeed not high enough to be put on the auction table, but this time the situation is a bit special. A shop specializing in selling talismans in Linhai City went bankrupt, and many mid-level talismans in it were auctioned at one time.
There are 70 attack talismans and 30 defense talismans, a total of 100 mid-level talismans are auctioned together. I believe that all Taoist friends understand the reason, so I won’t say more!"
After hearing the number of talismans, many wealthy foundation-building cultivators in the field all brightened their eyes slightly.
Admittedly, for cultivators, a single talisman may not be very useful, or even a bit useless, and it is better to directly perform magic.
But if the number of talismans is sufficient, it will be different.
After all, talismans are not only released quickly, but also powerful. If multiple talismans can be used together, when the number reaches a certain scale, the powerful power is enough to make many foundation-building cultivators present excited.
For example, Qin Tian in the elegant room No. 15 at this moment, his eyes were shining brightly!
And the old man in Taoist robes on the auction table, seeing that the emotions in the field were almost mobilized, immediately began to announce the starting price:
"A total of one hundred mid-level spiritual talismans, the starting price is 80,000 low-grade spiritual stones! Each bid must not be less than one thousand spiritual stones, fellow Taoists, you can start bidding!"
Almost as soon as the voice fell, a noisy bidding sound suddenly rang out in the first floor hall:
"Eighty-five thousand low-grade spiritual stones!"
"Only eighty-five thousand? You are really whimsical, I will offer one hundred thousand low-grade spiritual stones!"
"One hundred and one hundred thousand low-grade spiritual stones!"
"Don't fight, I will offer one hundred and fifty thousand spiritual stones! If anyone bids higher than this price, I will withdraw immediately!"
........
Seeing the high atmosphere in the field, the old man in Taoist robes on the stage couldn't help but reveal a satisfied smile.
But at this moment, in a certain elegant room on the second floor, a slightly hoarse female cultivator's voice suddenly sounded:
"Two hundred thousand low-grade spirit stones!"
The voice was not loud, but due to the increase in price, the auction hall, which was originally in high spirits, suddenly fell into silence.
For a moment, many foundation-building cultivators in the hall suddenly showed angry expressions, and there was a lot of public outrage.
However, the Taoist robed old man on the auction table was not angry at all. Instead, he looked around the many elegant rooms on the second floor with interest, looking calm and composed.
When Qin Tian in the elegant room No. 15 heard the hoarse female voice, he was also slightly stunned. Then he sneered again, and his eyes were full of cold light.
It was probably because the hoarse female cultivator's voice was actually the black evil poisonous woman who had once tricked Qin Tian in the ancient cultivator's mansion!
A moment later, just when the place was about to become deserted, a middle-aged monk's voice was heard again in a room on the second floor:
"Two hundred and fifty thousand low-grade spirit stones!"
However, as soon as this voice fell, the black evil poison girl's hoarse voice without any emotion sounded again in the auction venue:
"Three hundred thousand low-grade spirit stones!"
As soon as this was said, there was a burst of discussion in the auction venue, and it was obvious that they were surprised by the large increase in the price of the two.
And the old man in Taoist robes on the auction table, with a wrinkled face, had already smiled.
As for the middle-aged monk who originally participated in the bidding on the second floor, he was silent again, as if he had lost interest.
