Chapter 35 Auction
Within a few days, the news of the auction held by Yuan Mingzong was officially announced. It would be held in Yunqingfang City ten days later, and the focus of publicity was naturally on the three Foundation Building Pills!
However, Li Zhirui noticed that in the news announced by Yuan Mingzong, the Foundation Establishment Pill was not the final spiritual object, and there were several auction items behind it.
"Is Yuan Mingzong going to auction off the third-level spiritual objects?" Li Zhirui, who originally didn't care much about the auction, suddenly became a little interested.
But that's all, because Li Zhirui now only has three to four thousand spirit stones in his hand, which is a considerable fortune among qi-training monks, but it is nothing at all when put at auction.
So Li Zhirui quickly put the matter aside and continued to live a life of alchemy and cultivation.
Time flew by in a blink of an eye, and the day of the auction arrived. In the morning, Li Zhirui followed two elders and took a spiritual boat to Yunqingfang City.
After paying the entrance fee of thirty spirit stones, the three of them were taken to the private room on the second floor.
The area of the private room is not large, but it is much better than the crowded lobby on the first floor. The reason why they are treated like this is entirely because of the face of the two foundation-building monks, Li Shilian and Li Shiren.
"Yuan Mingzong has already made thousands of spirit stones before the auction even started." Li Shiren clicked his tongue.
The entrance fee is ten spirit stones. There can be at least hundreds of monks on the first floor, and there are dozens of rooms on the second floor. If you are not a foundation-building monk and want to go to the second floor, you can spend a hundred spirit stones to purchase the qualification. .
There is also a third floor that is free for Jindan monks. It is said that low-level monks have to spend a thousand spiritual stones to go up.
"Uncle Ren, you practice hard. After you break through the golden elixir, the family can also hold an auction and earn admission fees." Li Zhirui said with a smile.
It’s not that you have to be a golden elixir force to hold an auction, but because the foundation building force can’t come up with anything good and is not attractive enough, there won’t be many monks willing to participate, and without monks, the auction will Of course there is no way to hold it.
"Instead of waiting for me to make a breakthrough, it is better to hope that the clan leader will form an elixir as soon as possible." As he spoke, Li Shiren suddenly sighed and said, "It's just that because of too many trivial matters, the clan leader has no time to practice."
A trace of complexity flashed in Li Shilian's eyes, and then he glanced at Li Zhirui pretending to be casual. Seeing that he was deep in thought, he suddenly wanted to hear his opinion on this matter.
"Uncle Ren, why don't you persuade the clan leader to step down and practice cultivation with peace of mind, and then you can become the clan leader?"
Li Shiren was startled by these words and said quickly: "It's not that I don't want to share the burden for the clan leader, it's because I'm not suitable to be the clan leader!"
"Uncle Ren, although you are careless and not smart enough, aren't there so many elders? You can leave the specific affairs to them. If you are unsure about something, you can discuss it with the elders."
Li Zhirui felt from the bottom of his heart that the distribution of power and authority in the family was unreasonable!
Although the family has established several elders, because of Li Shiqing's personal prestige and strength, no matter what happens, the person who makes the final decision is always Li Shiqing.
The result of this was that Li Shiqing was extremely busy every day and had no time to practice at all.
It's just that it's really hard for Li Zhirui to say these words, because it will make people think that he is dissatisfied with Li Shiqing.
Li Zhirui also borrowed Li Shiren's words, and then expressed his thoughts in a roundabout way, but he was not speaking to Li Shiren, but to test Li Shilian.
"Let's stop this matter. Don't talk about it again in the future!" Li Shilian glared at Li Zhirui. This brat actually wanted to use him as a weapon, but he had to admit that Li Zhirui was right.
"Yes." Li Zhirui chuckled. He knew that Li Shilian could understand the deeper meaning of his words, and judging from his reaction, he probably would find an opportunity to discuss it with Li Shiqing.
If Li Zhirui didn't know these two elders well and knew that they wouldn't be angry, he would never have said those words anyway.
"Knock knock——"
Just at this time, there was a knock on the door.
"Two seniors, this is part of the auction items in today's auction." I saw a beautiful, elegant and dignified female nun pushing open the door, and even her voice made people feel very comfortable.
Putting the jade slip on the coffee table, and pouring a cup of fragrant spiritual tea for the three of them, the female cultivator bowed slightly and said, "If you two seniors have any instructions, you can ring the bell to call me over." After that, , then turned and left.
"The first auction item is a second-level magic weapon?" Li Shilian raised his eyebrows slightly and said with interest: "The Spirit Gathering Jade Pendant can gather nearby spiritual energy, which is equivalent to a spirit gathering array that you carry with you."
He looked at the next few auction items and said, "It seems that Yuan Mingzong put a lot of thought into this auction."
"Uncle Shi Lian, do you think there will be real Jindan monks participating?"
Although it is not directly marked in the jade slip, it is said that there are several third-level spiritual objects. If it were not for the Jindan monks, how could Yuan Mingzong come up with spiritual objects that are expensive but unusable for low-level monks?
"Whether there is a Golden Core cultivator or not, it has nothing to do with us."
"Dong dong dong——"
On the auction stage on the first floor, a female cultivator with a hot figure and coquettish appearance suddenly appeared. She was wearing a purple dress that perfectly outlined her figure.
As soon as she raised her hands and feet, she was full of charm, and some monks who were not firm enough were already addicted to the hem of her skirt.
"Little girl Zi Yan has met all fellow Taoists!" It was like a melancholy voice, scratching everyone's chests.
But Li Zhirui, who was on the second floor, frowned unconsciously and asked in a low voice: "Has this person learned the art of charm?"
The purpose of seduction is not to seduce the opposite sex, but to confuse the enemy, lower their alertness, and even charm them into puppets for you to drive.
But now it is rare to see monks who practice orthodox charm techniques. Most of them are evil cultivators who practice the method of tonic. They use charm techniques to seduce the opposite sex so that they can capture the target of the tonic.
Because of this, the reputation of charm has become very bad.
"Well, no wonder Yuan Mingzong asked her to host the auction." Use charm to stir up the monk's emotions and get more people to bid, thereby achieving the purpose of increasing the price of the auction items.
"Thanks to the love of all Taoist friends, this little girl has the honor to be the auctioneer of this auction. The next auction will be hosted by me. I hope that all Taoist friends can get the spiritual objects they like."
After saying that, she started to pull open the red silk on the table, revealing the true appearance of the Soul Gathering Jade Pendant.
The jade pendant is in the shape of a pair of yin and yang fishes, and it looks very good-looking. However, the monks on the first floor don't know the function of this jade pendant because they don't have a list, and Zi Yan needs to introduce it.
"This is a second-level spirit-gathering jade pendant. Its function is to gather spiritual energy and speed up cultivation. But its function is not only that. When fighting with people, if you have a spirit-gathering jade pendant, you can recover mana faster. , improve your own winning rate.”
After Zi Yan's introduction, many monks have already had the idea of taking this object.
"Every Taoist friend must know the importance of this treasure, so I won't say more. The second-level low-grade magic weapon Pisces Spirit Gathering Pendant has a starting price of three thousand spirit stones, and each increase in price must not be less than one hundred. Spiritual stone.”
The sound of the wooden hammer means that everyone can bid and compete.
