With a thought in his mind, Gu Qing took out two high-grade metallic spirit stones with a flash of light in his hand. He raised his hand slightly and drove it into the two dark golden spirit stone grooves on the right side of the formation.
After two pieces of high-grade metallic spirit stones are perfectly embedded into the grooves of the spirit stones, golden light can be seen flowing out from the grooves of these two dark gold-colored spirit stones, like water, outlining complex and exquisite golden lines. Spread to the core of the formation and condense into it.
There were four other people who moved at the same time as Gu Qing, especially Wang Ji, a sixth-level foundation-building monk wearing a monk's robe, who moved faster than Gu Qing.
Before Gu Qing, this cultivator had already moved towards two light white spirit stone grooves among the eight spirit stone grooves below the formation. He flicked his broad monk's robe and drove in two pieces of high-grade water-attributed spirit stones. stone.
With the black cloth wrapped around the wooden wall, he took out two high-grade wood-attribute spirit stones and put them into the two cyan spirit stone grooves on the left side of the formation above.
Gu Qing's eyes narrowed slightly.
But when he saw the formation engraved on the stone slab above, the left part lit up with cyan light. The right side, because of the two high-grade metallic spiritual stones he had embedded, lit up with golden light. The lower part lit up due to the Wang Ji's two water-attribute spiritual stones emitted a faint white fluorescence.
The top part of this formation, because the two dark red spirit stone grooves have not yet been embedded with spirit stones, only glows with a faint red light.
'Green dragon on the left, white tiger on the right, Suzaku on the top and Xuanwu on the bottom... Is this a change of the Four Elephant Formation? Judging from the pattern direction of this formation, it should be just a short-distance teleportation formation! But even if a short-distance teleportation formation can be engraved on a stone slab, the person setting up the formation must have extremely high attainments in the formation.
Gu Qing raised his eyebrows slightly.
"It seems that a few fellow Taoists accounted for the majority." Zhao Xi, a female cultivator at the fifth level of Foundation Establishment, smiled slightly when she saw this. Then she took out two high-grade spiritual stones from the storage ring and handed them over to him. Next to him, Li Ke looked at his fellow Taoist, his eyes filled with water, "You idiot, move faster, don't make your fellow Taoists wait in a hurry."
Li Ke still looked dull and nodded slightly.
He took the spirit stones, jumped up, and slapped the two spirit stones into the two dark red spirit stone grooves above the formation!
A fire-colored stream of light spread from the two dark red spiritual stone grooves, instantly lighting up the last dim part of the formation.
Immediately, four-color spiritual light shone on the formation, submerging Chang Deng Laodao, Gu Qing and other cultivators, illuminating the fifth floor of the pavilion for a moment, and the next moment, the light disappeared.
Wisps of light dissipated, and the spiritual light of the formation engraved on the stone slab dimmed. Among the eight spiritual stone grooves around the formation, pieces of spiritual stone with exhausted spiritual energy turned into bits of debris and fell to the ground. Chang Deng Laodao, Gu Qing and other cultivators here have disappeared.
The sound of the mechanism opening and closing sounded, and the small short-distance teleportation array was covered with overturned stone slabs. Darkness swallowed up the densely packed compartments like a tide, and the fifth floor of the pavilion returned to coldness and silence. The busy street outside the window seemed a bit out of place.
A slight tearing sensation and the feeling that the body has lost weight suddenly appeared in Gu Qing's heart as the light and shadow in front of him distorted.
After the distorted light and shadow calmed down, and the slight strange feeling disappeared, Gu Qing came to a quiet room - the quiet room was square, with pearls embedded in the walls, soft white light filled the place, and the ground was filled with soft white light. There are many formation patterns engraved on it. There are two tall male cultivators in the late stage of Qi refining, waiting in the stone room with their hands down.
"senior!"
"senior……"
As Gu Qing and others arrived, the two male cultivators waiting here sensed their cultivation levels and hurriedly bowed and clasped their fists in a salute.
Then one of them stepped forward quickly. His handsome face was full of respect. He lowered his eyes slightly and asked, "Seniors, do you have any tokens from this auction?"
"If not, each of them needs to pay ten high-grade spiritual stones before they can enter."
The old Taoist Chang Deng smiled slightly when he saw this.
He took out the token he had just used, engraved with the appearance of a charming woman, and handed it to the late-stage Qi Refining male cultivator who quickly stepped forward: "Haha! This token, old Taoist, can
It was a gift from your original poster. These are all seasoned friends and they are participating in this auction. "
The male cultivator in the late stage of Qi refining held the token and checked it several times before handing it back, clasping his fists and retreating: "I have offended you."
Retreat with this practice.
There was a rumbling sound, and a thick stone door slowly rose on one side. Behind the stone door was a corridor about dozens of feet long. The abundant spiritual mist in the corridor gathered and dispersed. Through the white spiritual mist, one could see the tunnel at the end of the corridor. At the corner, there were two maidservants in gorgeous dresses standing in wait.
Gu Qing and the others looked at each other, then stepped out of the stone room and followed the corridor for several dozen feet. When they turned a corner, their eyes suddenly opened up.
A huge auction venue appeared in front of Gu Qing and other cultivators. The circular auction stage in the center alone was four to five hundred feet in diameter. Many pavilions were built around the auction stage. Now they were in a close place. On top of the pavilions built on the four walls of the auction venue.
On the circular auction platform with a radius of four to five hundred feet, there were hundreds of male and female monks in the middle stage of Qi refining dancing.
These male and female monks all have good looks, especially the couple in the center of the auction stand. Their style is truly stunning in the world, not tainted with any gaudiness. If there is anyone who is not strong-willed, he may be far away. Just one look at it will make your heart sway and make you unable to extricate yourself.
A group of monks in the middle stage of Qi Refining came out of a pavilion and walked quickly as Gu Qing and other cultivators arrived. There were six monks in this group, five of whom were fair-looking women and one was a handsome male cultivator. , after approaching, they each faced Gu Qing and other cultivators.
"Senior, please come with me." The female cultivator standing in front of Gu Qing bowed and spoke in a soft voice, with just the right amount of shyness on her slightly green face.
Gu Qing felt the fluctuations of souls exchanged around him, and knew that it must be an acquaintance of Chang Deng Lao Dao and other cultivators who were communicating with them. He nodded slightly to the female cultivator and followed her.
The female cultivator in front of her is neither tall nor short, but slightly plump. She is wearing a fluttering white skirt, revealing a little bit of fair skin that seems to be broken by a blow. Coupled with the white spiritual mist floating around, she is really set off. She felt a bit like a fairy, coupled with her shy and timid look, and the look in her eyes that wanted to refuse and welcome back when she looked back from time to time, it really made Gu Qing feel uncomfortable all over.
If this is really some kind of charm on him, that's all.
But the woman in front of her really hadn't used any charm skills at all. She just looked shy and timid, pretending to be at her mercy.
'Why do you all like to do this?
As he walked forward slowly, the corners of Gu Qing's mouth twitched slightly.
A monk, shouldn’t he be pure in heart and have few desires?
Why does the power that organizes the auction always arrange beautiful male and female waiters for the monks who participate in the auction to receive them and at the same time do their best to seduce them?
Soon, Gu Qing, led by the maid in white skirt, arrived at a pavilion close to the circular auction stage.
"Fellow Taoists, I'll say goodbye for now." Gu Qing looked back and nodded to the fellow cultivators, Chang Deng Lao Taoist.
"If Fellow Daoist Gu needs spiritual stones, feel free to ask the old Taoist. I dare not tell you if there are more than 1,800 middle-grade spiritual stones. The old Taoist still has a surplus." Old Taoist Chang Deng spoke to Gu Qing, and by the way, he reached out and took the man who was leading the way. The female cultivator just raised and lowered her hands, making the female cultivator moan repeatedly.
"Definitely." Gu Qing responded to Chang Deng's words with a smile.
Immediately, he and the leading maid walked into the pavilion.
This pavilion has three floors. The first two floors are empty and have nothing. Only the third floor is a huge grandstand, facing the circular auction stand in front. There are all tables, chairs and beds on this grandstand. The groove embedded in the spiritual stone is located in the spiritual plant pot in the center of the stand.
In the spiritual plant pot, the emerald green spiritual plant is crystal clear, with red fruits growing on it. Just smelling the fragrance on it, Gu Qing, who just sat next to the spiritual plant on the soft couch with a backrest, felt a slight fever in his lower abdomen. , he was originally thinking about whether to take out the storage ring he got from Ye A'er and seize the time to break the restriction. At this time, he couldn't help but stare at the female cultivator in white dress who was making tea beside him.
"What kind of spiritual fruit is this? What effect does it have?"
force? "
Gu Qing's eyes flickered, he glanced around and asked in passing.
Chang Deng Lao Dao and others were also the maids who led the way into the nearby pavilions. At this moment, they all appeared on the stand.
The Taoist couple Zhao Xi and Li Ke were not separated. The two cultivators were standing on the edge of the third floor of the pavilion where they were, leaning against each other, as if they were talking about something. The two men and women who led them here. The waiter has made tea and is standing aside with his eyes and nose in mind.
"...Senior, this is the Hunyang Spirit Fruit." The hand of the waitress in the white dress shook, and fear flashed through her clear eyes, "The effectiveness of this Hunyang Spirit Fruit is... it is an aphrodisiac* **want."
"I see." Gu Qing nodded expressionlessly.
Immediately, he took out a high-grade spiritual stone from the storage ring.
The female cultivator in white skirt had just finished pouring tea for Gu Qing. She glanced at the high-grade spiritual stone with some envy. She quickly and carefully looked back and was about to stand aside - she had already seen that this black man The young-looking Senior Foundation Builder in the robe seemed to have no intention of favoring her, which made her feel relieved but also felt a little disappointed.
Gu Qing held this high-grade spiritual stone in his hand and let go of his mind to suppress the operation of the technique. Immediately above the five-color lotus platform, under the illumination of the five golden lotus seeds, the Great Five Elements Condensation Magic began to operate.
While continuously incorporating the spiritual energy from this high-grade spiritual stone into his body for refining, Gu Qing turned his palm to take out the storage ring he got from Ye A - he had already broken through half of the storage ring, and it only took half a day. In a matter of seconds, the remaining restrictions on it can be completely broken.
"How long will it take for the auction to start? Can the concealment formation be activated by embedding the spiritual stone here?" Gu Qing pointed to the groove of the spiritual stone on one side.
"Returning to senior, the auction will start tomorrow night at ugly time. It will be about seven hours from now." The waitress in white skirt responded, "There is indeed a concealment formation here, senior only needs to insert it into this slot A low-grade water spiritual stone can activate the covering formation for three days."
"May I have your name?"
Gu Qing nodded calmly and asked.
"Jie Zhilan, my slave." The female cultivator in white skirt responded.
"Zhi Lan, Zhi Lan." Gu Qing curled his lips and threw three spiritual stones casually. Two of them were full of spiritual energy and were clearly middle-grade wood-attribute spiritual stones. Only one was a low-grade water-attribute spiritual stone. "Quickly, Quickly activate the concealment formation, and the remaining two spiritual stones will be given to you."
Xie Zhilan, the female cultivator in white dress, was shocked.
Two middle-grade spiritual stones?
They are still two middle-grade spiritual stones with wood attributes!
Did this senior see that she was practicing Mu Xing Kung Fu...
She took the three spiritual stones and quickly responded: "Yes!"
Xie Zhilan quickly came to Gu Qing's side, bent down and embedded the low-grade water-attributed spiritual stone into the spiritual stone groove of the spiritual plant pot.
The fragrance of Hunyang Spiritual Light continued to penetrate into her mouth and nose, causing the skin on her face and neck to turn red, as if blood was about to drip, and her head felt dizzy. Even after the spirit stone was embedded, the covering array She was not even aware of the fluctuations caused by the spell.
"Cough." Gu Qing glanced at the white water curtain surrounding the stage, and coughed slightly, waking up Xie Zhilan, whose breathing became increasingly rapid.
"Ah!" Jie Zhilan, like a frightened little rabbit, broke away from the dizzy state, bowed to Gu Qing, stepped back and stood aside, her plump chest rising and falling, unable to calm down the throbbing in her heart for a long time, she lowered her eyes slightly , even the long eyelashes seemed to be shaking.
'The white water curtain surrounding the grandstand can block prying eyes from the outside, but you can see the outside world and hear the sounds from the outside. It is really a bit magical. I don't know where this covering formation can be found. Get it. Gu Qing didn't pay attention to the little maid's throbbing.
For Gu Qing, the one-way covering formation arranged in this stand is more interesting. As for the superficial lust generated by this physical form, he has long since ignored it.
As if a child had gotten a fun toy, Gu Qing looked at the covering formation, and used his spiritual consciousness to spread along the grooves of the spiritual stone in the spiritual plant pot beside him. He carefully explored the formation, but found that
, the formation disk of this formation is buried deep underground and is wrapped in a layer of spiritual light.
Gu Qing was not surprised by this.
With a thought in his mind, he withdrew his consciousness, turned over his hand and took out the storage ring he got from Ye A, held it with his consciousness, and hung it in front of his eyes.
Then he held the high-grade spirit stone in one hand and condensed the restriction with the other, breaking the remaining layer of restriction in the storage ring.
In the auction venue.
In a pavilion slightly away from the auction stage.
Above the stands on the third floor.
"This Gu Qing, actually came to participate in this auction?" Yu Lingkong stood with his hands behind his hands, looking a little strange. He was rescued by Gu Qing, but he did not die on Qingshu Island. Afterwards, he hurried back to Changming Island and visited several times. This time I went to the small family where Gu Qing settled and looked for Gu Qing.
But none of them were found.
"Does he not want to see me, or is he really going out?" The expression on his face changed slightly, Yu Lingkong's eyes were complicated, and he looked up and muttered to himself.
No one responded in the stands. The pretty maid on one side just lowered her eyebrows and stood with her hands lowered, as if she had never heard Yu Lingkong's muttering to herself.
Among the stands at the edge of the auction venue.
Zhou Lian, who was dressed in black robes and whose cultivation aura was only at the second level of Foundation Establishment, had a slight smile on his mediocre face.
'Senior Brother Gu, he survived as expected.
Zhou Lianru thought.
The presence of an old friend, especially in this world, makes him happy.
'There is no conflict of interest this time, but I can recognize Senior Brother Gu... I don't know what happened to Junior Sister Ren Chan. I see that Senior Brother Gu has reached the middle stage of foundation building, and Junior Sister Ren Chan should also have established Foundation now... Zhou As my mind wandered, I couldn't help but feel a bit of anticipation.
For some reason, the mysterious Senior Lin who always taunted Zhou Lian in the past and talked long and nagging in Zhou Lian's mind, this time, it seemed as if he did not exist at all.
"This person is acquainted with Chang Deng Lao Dao. Could he be from the Rogue Cultivator Alliance? That's interesting." In a pavilion very close to the auction platform, on the stand, there was a stern man holding a charming female cultivator in his arms. There was a slight smile on the corner of his mouth, and the movements of his hands did not stop at all.
The stern man's eyes were narrowed, as if he was talking to himself: "With only the fifth level of foundation building, he can withstand a sword with 70% strength... When will the alliance of casual cultivators in the Linyu Sea area... A monk with such combat power? Or are they from the General Alliance of Rogue Cultivators?"
"Well..." The charming female cultivator in the stern man's arms raised her head and let out a low cry as if in pain, but she was pushed back as soon as she raised her head.
Snapped!
A lightning-like slap knocked the stern man to the ground. The charming female cultivator looked at the stern man on the ground with a smile but not a smile: "Gu Heng, I am not one of those maids who do whatever you want."
"Pfft..." The stern man spit out a mouthful of blood mixed with minced meat, touched his almost shattered cheek, glanced at the charming female cultivator with a resentful look, and did not return to the soft bed, letting the blood flow continuously on his face. Xue, sitting cross-legged on the spot, seemed to continue to think about something.
The female cultivator on the soft couch got up and got off the ground. The clothes on her delicate white body naturally emerged. She pulled her hair up and walked barefoot to the edge of the stand: "People from the General Alliance of Loose Cultivators cannot move. If you take something like that and leave, At that time, the owner of Changming Island was tied up by that incident and it was too late to rush back..."
The stern man nodded when he heard the words and said: "Madam, what you said is reasonable. If you offend the small sects on Hehuan Road, you will be offended. The old monsters of the Rogue Cultivator Alliance are not easy to offend. "
Time flies by.
Seven hours passed quickly.
The originally quiet auction venue gradually became lively.
The more than two hundred pavilions in the venue were all occupied by the foundation-building monks who kept arriving. The auction led by Yao Yuelou was really quite a scene. When it was about to start, the buildings in the auction venue were all occupied. The number of foundation-level monks has reached 218, and since Gu Qing, there are eight ninth-level foundation-building monks who have not hidden their cultivation aura.
Among them, there are two who have completed the foundation building and reached the false elixir.
two
More than a hundred foundation-building monks gathered together, and the faint spiritual pressure made the atmosphere in the auction venue condense to the extreme - this is not a feeling on an emotional level, but a real existence. There is pressure everywhere!
Round auction stage.
A group of handsome male and female monks who were in the middle stage of Qi Refining and were dancing gracefully. Every move became extremely stiff, until a beautiful woman in palace attire who was at the eighth level of Foundation Establishment flew onto the auction stage. These hundred dancing people The male and female monks breathed a sigh of relief and retreated.
"Everyone."
The beautiful woman in palace attire is tall, wearing a bright red slim-fitting dress, a white cloak made of the fur of an unknown monster, a pair of exquisite black boots with red stripes, and her long black hair is meticulously styled. It is tied behind the head, with only a green hairpin stuck on it.
At this moment, her soft and charming face was slightly serious. She looked around the auction venue and slowly said: "I am Gu Hanyue. I am entrusted by the sect to host this auction. There is no need to say more about the rules. Only Two points, one is not to bid at will or disrupt the auction process, and the other is that all fellow Taoists are requested to activate the covering formation to isolate their spiritual consciousness and prevent some fellow Taoists from colluding with each other to deliberately lower the price."
"I understand, Ancient Fairy, please start the auction quickly!"
"That's right! To this day, we have participated in not a hundred but eighty auctions like this. Now that we are familiar with the relevant matters, the ancient fairy needs no further words and quickly goes to the first lot."
As soon as Gu Hanyue finished speaking, the spiritual consciousness of the two monks whose soul power had almost reached the foundation-building perfection spoke in agreement.
Gu Hanyue nodded, her pretty face became solemn, and she turned to smile: "What the two fellow Taoists said is correct, but Hanyue talks too much..."
"The first auction item today is this."
As he spoke, Gu Hanyue waved his hand to his side.
Suddenly, a group of spiritual light suddenly appeared beside him. This group of spiritual light was dark purple in color. The light radiated slightly in all directions like jagged teeth, and then shrank inwards, turning into a dark purple claw-like spiritual weapon. , this spiritual weapon is about four feet long, the four claws on it are more than two feet long, and the short ones are more than a foot long, with a trace of purple light on the sharp edges.
The inside is hollow and can be worn on the hand like a glove.
"This object is the Purple Phoenix Claw, a middle-grade spiritual weapon that was famous back then!" Gu Hanyue said in a loud voice, mixed with some persuasiveness. "Although this claw was damaged in the war that year and one of its claws is missing, it can still be used. Exerting power far beyond ordinary mid-grade spiritual weapons!"
"And if any fellow Taoist can repair it...ha! Even the top-grade spiritual weapon cannot outshine the charm of this spiritual weapon!"
"The starting price is four thousand yuan for medium-grade spiritual stones!"
Gu Hanyue's words caused the monks in the field to fall silent for a moment.
Immediately, there were shouts of bidding one after another!
The reputation of the Purple Phoenix Claw has been heard by all the monks in the field, especially the older monks, who are very familiar with this spiritual weapon!
I never thought that the first item to be auctioned at the auction held by Yao Yue Lou would be this treasure! The atmosphere in the venue naturally became lively immediately!
'Purple Phoenix Claw... is actually this thing.
On the third floor of a pavilion not far from the auction stage, Gu Qing looked at the purple claw-shaped spiritual weapon through the white water curtain with a strange expression on his face.
'Xuan Yunzi once obtained a claw of this treasure and used that claw to deceive other monks. At the beginning, even me...
