Gu Qing looked at the purple phoenix claw with a strange look in his eyes.
At the beginning, a claw that was broken and fell off by Xuanyunzi's treasure triggered the power of "violent light passing by, annihilating the soul." If he hadn't seen the opportunity quickly, he hid in the cliff the moment he jumped. The stele space had fallen long ago!
'A broken claw of this treasure can have such power... Gu Qing hesitated slightly, listening to the bidding in the auction house, and summoned Xie Zhilan who was standing on one side.
Xie Zhilan immediately stepped forward quickly.
"What kind of battle was this purple phoenix claw damaged in? Gu has lived inland for a long time and only moved to Linyu Sea a few years ago. He is really ignorant and ignorant. I wonder if Miss Xie can shed some light on this?" Gu Qing had a gentle look on his face. With a smile, he turned to look at Xie Zhilan, seemingly asking a question.
"Return to the words of senior." Xie Zhilan lowered her head and responded in a low voice, "Years ago, on Yunlian Island, about 24,000 miles southeast of Changming Island, there used to be a large number of demonic cultivators secretly entrenched, plotting to sacrifice blood to the millions of creatures on the island. The spirit of the great devil descended... Fortunately, I, the Master of Changming Island, Master Xu Wang, understood this conspiracy and united with all the forces in the Linyu Sea area to eliminate it."
"And this purple phoenix claw was the treasure of a demonic cultivator in the fake elixir realm during that war. It is said that in the hands of that demonic cultivator, he has all kinds of miraculous powers such as dispersing souls and moving souls, but I, Linyu, Many strong men from various forces in the sea area have suffered secret losses at the hands of that demonic cultivator."
"Later, Senior Jiedan, with the power of Heaven, forcibly suppressed this demonic cultivator, and the treasure was immediately damaged and part of it was missing."
Gu Qing nodded after listening to Xie Zhilan's words.
"Is it the treasure of demon cultivation..."
He turned his eyes and looked at the purple phoenix claw on the auction table.
At this time, the bidding in the auction venue has reached 7,600 pieces of medium-grade spiritual stones, which was the bid of the monks in a pavilion closer to the auction stage who were in the late stage of foundation building with the power of the soul.
This is also the first bid from a monk in the late stage of foundation building.
As this cultivator spoke with his spiritual consciousness and shouted out 7,600 middle-grade spiritual stones, there was a brief silence in the entire auction venue.
The originally heated atmosphere came to an abrupt end, and several monks who had been bidding suddenly stopped and became silent.
There are two reasons why this kind of scene occurs.
First, the price of the Purple Phoenix Claw has reached a very high level. Based on the market conditions near Changming Island, the transaction price of middle-grade spiritual weapons is generally less than four thousand middle-grade spiritual stones. And this Purple Phoenix Claw, even if No matter how powerful it is, it is only a middle-grade spiritual weapon. It is still a broken middle-grade spiritual weapon, but its bidding price has reached nearly 8,000 middle-grade spiritual stones.
You know, eight to nine thousand middle-grade spiritual stones are enough to obtain some of the less popular high-grade spiritual weapons without any damage!
both.
Naturally, this was the bidder. The monk whose soul power had reached the late stage of Foundation Establishment brought pressure that could not be ignored to the several early and mid-stage Foundation Establishment cultivators who were bidding for the Purple Phoenix Claw in the auction venue - many of them. Sometimes, rules cannot restrain the stronger. Even if the stronger has no intention of bullying the weaker, its existence itself has formed a kind of oppression on the weaker and will make the weaker make corresponding compromises.
Time passes bit by bit.
The time between two breaths seems to have become a bit long.
On the auction table in the center of the auction venue, Gu Hanyue looked around with a smile on her beautiful eyes. At the moment when her third breath began, her red lips slightly opened and she said, "Congratulations to the fellow Taoist in Pavilion No. 3. , I bought this piece for 7,600 pieces of medium-grade spiritual stones..."
"Eight thousand mid-grade spiritual stones."
A clear voice sounded.
On the third floor of a pavilion not far from the auction stage, Gu Qing looked calm. Under the gaze of Xie Zhilan, who was slightly stunned on one side, he spoke with his spiritual consciousness and interrupted Gu Hanyue's words.
Gu Hanyue's eyes lit up on the auction stage.
She was not the least bit annoyed by being interrupted - who would have trouble with a white spirit stone? The higher the price of an auction item, the richer the spiritual stone she can get.
So Gu Hanyue smiled slightly and stopped talking.
convenient
After Gu Qing made the bid, the eyes of many monks in the venue were focused on the pavilion where Gu Qing was located, not far from the auction stage. The glances that came over each other contained different meanings. Different, but mostly filled with surprise and inquiry.
If the entire auction stage is compared to a huge disk, the four to five hundred-foot auction stage is the core of the disk, and starting from the left side of the disk, the third pavilion from left to right is the three pavilions. Pavilion No. 97, and so on, the pavilion where Gu Qing is located is Pavilion No. 97.
"Pavilion No. 97? This person is somewhat interesting..."
"Ha! Arranged in this pavilion in the middle of the ranking, the cultivation level of the monk who made the bid was in the middle stage of foundation building. He actually came up with such a price when the auction just started. A large number of spirit stones and choose to bid with the monks in the late stage of foundation building?"
"Ignorance! I'm probably intimidated by the name of the Purple Phoenix Claw. Don't you know that eight thousand middle-grade spiritual stones can almost buy a high-grade spiritual weapon..."
Immediately, the cultivators spoke to each other, and huge spiritual consciousness uttered their voices. They were intertwined together, making the place extremely noisy. Many cultivators actually took advantage of the chaos and shouted loudly through the white water curtain. It seemed like they were planning to work together to lower the price of an item.
Gu Hanyue, who was on the auction stage, turned dark when he heard that. He coughed lightly and said with a cold expression: "Ahem! Be quiet! Fellow Taoists, please wait in peace and don't collude with each other again. If not, please leave. .”
The aura of cultivation at the eighth level of foundation building has been erupting all over Tingyue since ancient times. On one side of the auction venue, there is a majestic aura, pressing across. The noise in the venue is immediately like the scorching sun. It melted like snow, and all the cultivators were as silent as cicadas.
This majestic momentum is actually in the elixir formation stage!
Although it quickly disappeared like a spring breeze turning into rain, the cultivators in the field still felt extremely awe-inspiring.
I never thought that the well-known Yaoyue Tower on Changming Island would dispatch a pill-forming monk for this auction!
It’s really a big deal!
You know, the owner of the huge Changming Island, Master Xuwang, is nothing more than a fake elixir realm monk! Apart from this, if there is anyone in the auction venue who really offends the alchemy cultivator who is in charge of the auction, even if Master Xuwang comes forward, he will definitely not be able to save him!
Just when the cultivators were attending the auction, there was a monk in the Core Formation Realm sitting in charge. When they were shocked, three breaths of time passed by in the blink of an eye.
The monk who had previously bid 7,600 pieces of mid-grade spiritual stones, and whose soul power was in the late stage of foundation building, did not bid again.
"Congratulations to this fellow Taoist from Pavilion No. 97 for buying this broken middle-grade spiritual weapon Purple Phoenix Claw for the price of 8,000 mid-grade spiritual stones!" Gu Hanyue on the auction table said in a deep voice. speak out.
As Gu Hanyue finished speaking.
Two male cultivators in the late stage of Qi refining flew out from the secret door on the side of the stone wall, came to the auction table, and took out a six-foot-long, three-foot-wide jade structure covered with a layer of soft monster fur. He put the purple phoenix claw on the tray and carried it to the pavilion where Gu Qing was.
Gu Hanyue, at this time, had already taken out the second lot.
"This second lot is still a mid-grade spiritual weapon."
"All of you fellow Taoists have probably heard of the name of the Tianfu Sect and know that the best talismans are made by the Tianfu Sect. But who knows that in the art of refining weapons, there is one that is as famous as the Tianfu Sect's talismans?" Lingzong?"
As he spoke, Gu Hanyue flicked his sleeves and robe, and a medium-grade spiritual weapon that looked like a fan appeared on one side. The gold, purple, and black flowing light on the fan surface washed away, and three ferocious beasts faintly condensed out. Shaped, bursts of roaring sounds scattered above the three-color fan spiritual weapon.
Gu Hanyue continued: "This object is the Three Fierce Treasure Fans. The souls of these three ferocious beasts from outside the territory are sealed inside. They can be summoned to defend against the enemy during a battle. Each of the three ferocious beast souls is powerful enough to defeat ordinary people." The three-level foundation-building monks, the three evils work together, even the mid-level foundation-building monks can fight!"
"The starting price is two thousand yuan of medium-grade spiritual stones!"
The response to the second lot was just ordinary.
It is not as stunning as the first lot, the Purple Phoenix Claw.
'This treasure is quite ordinary...its value is mostly concentrated in the sealed
On the souls of the three evil beasts outside the territory, once the three evil souls are destroyed, this treasure will be useless. Gu Qing also retracted his gaze from the auction stage and looked to the side of the stand, at the top of the stairs.
There, two male cultivators in the late stages of Qi refining were carrying the Purple Phoenix Claw up. Not long after, they had already brought the Purple Phoenix Claw to Gu Qing's side.
Bang!
The jade tray fell to the ground with a heavy feeling. The two male cultivators in the late stage of Qi refining swayed. The male cultivator on the left took a step forward: "Senior, the poster has already told me that if the above When delivering high-grade spiritual stones, the price difference can be 20%, that is, the senior only needs to deliver 65 high-grade spiritual stones, but if the lower-grade spiritual stones are delivered, there will be a premium of more than 20%, and the senior needs to deliver 1 million low-grade spiritual stones."
"I will deliver it as a medium-grade spiritual stone." Gu Qing shook his head and said, taking advantage of the situation to pick up the purple phoenix claw, but saw that the purple phoenix claw only trembled under Gu Qing's consciousness, and then stopped moving.
"This treasure does have some weight." Gu Qing's eyes lit up, and he didn't feel any embarrassment. He took a few steps forward and took the Purple Phoenix Claw in his hand. He focused his consciousness on it and began to explore it carefully.
This treasure, the Purple Phoenix Claw, is heavy to acquire.
It's like holding black iron, it's cold.
Gu Qing probed into it with his spiritual consciousness, and saw countless small jagged structures on its surface and inside. Fine and complex spiritual patterns were engraved on these extremely tiny jagged teeth, and countless jagged teeth were interlocked with each other, and Connecting these spiritual patterns, a large area of purple light circulates on these spiritual patterns, making this treasure integrated.
Gu Qing's spiritual consciousness did not explore the inside of this treasure, and the power of his soul was consumed a lot. He withdrew his spiritual consciousness, looked at the purple phoenix claw with satisfaction, nodded imperceptibly, and flicked his sleeves to one side.
Eight thousand pieces of middle-grade spiritual stones were piled aside.
The entire stand was illuminated by the spiritual light of the spirit stone. Xie Zhilan and the two male cultivators who came here carrying the purple phoenix claws all felt short of breath for a moment.
But it only took a moment before he calmed down.
"Senior, I and I are leaving." The two male cultivators in the late stage of Qi refining quickly put away eight thousand pieces of middle-grade spiritual stones, then carried the jade plate again and retreated downstairs - this seat The white water cover placed upside down around the pavilion can block outside prying eyes, but it is only a one-way covering formation and cannot block the coming and going of others.
Gu Qing continued to fiddle with the purple phoenix claw, but he was thinking about the other question in his heart - just an hour and a half ago, he had broken Ye A's storage ring and swept through its interior with his spiritual consciousness.
There are only a few items inside this storage ring.
There is a jade statue with the image of a woman, a purple flying sword, three sets of formation disks and formation flags of unknown formations, two bottles of elixirs, a stack of talismans, and a total of thirteen elixirs sealed in jade boxes. , the rest is like various attributes of spiritual liquid, various tokens and other miscellaneous things.
There is not even half a spirit stone in it.
Regarding this, Gu Qing was slightly disappointed.
After all, the number of spiritual stones in the huge storage bag obtained from the woman Ye A was so huge that Gu Qing had the illusion that this woman must have countless treasures, and now he broke the woman's storage ring. With this little gain, he was surprised and disappointed at the same time.
But the disappointment only lasted for a moment, and then he was forgotten.
After playing with the purple phoenix claw for a few times, Gu Qing turned it over and took it away. He returned to the soft couch and sat down. He took out Ye A's storage ring, put it on the little finger of his left hand, and rubbed it with his big finger. Looking at the storage ring, his eyes were directed towards the auction table in front of him.
The second item currently being auctioned has already been taken by someone.
Gu Hanyue on the auction table took out the third spiritual weapon.
This is still a middle-grade spiritual weapon, a heavy sword without a sharp edge, and its entire body is red. Looking at it from a distance, Gu Qing's eyes feel a slight burning sensation.
"Did this auction only auction spiritual weapons in the first place?" Gu Qing touched his chin, spoke suddenly, and asked Xie Zhilan on his side.
"If I reply to senior..."
Xie Zhilan lowered her head slightly and responded: "If nothing unexpected happens, this auction will be conducted in the order of weapons, talismans, formations, and elixirs, until the auction of these four categories is completed.
After that, various spiritual objects will be auctioned, and finally... the thirty male and female furnace cauldrons that I invited Yue Lou to carefully train will be auctioned. "
Xie Zhilan's tone was a little bitter at the end.
"The male and female furnaces trained by Yueyuelou? Hey! Gu has not been in the world of cultivation for a long time. I really don't know when Hehuan Dao actually sold the furnaces! Gu remembers that many sects under the Hehuan Dao are all These are female cultivators who break bones and suck marrow, and they have always used others as their furnace..."
Gu Qing was quite surprised and his expression moved slightly.
In my memory, there are indeed many things that other sects do to cultivate furnace cauldrons, both overtly and covertly. Whether it is collecting yin to replenish yang, or picking yang to replenish yin, it is not uncommon, but many sects under the control of Hehuan Dao are not good. However, it is usually only the disciples of these sects who harvest and nourish others. How could they be sold as furnaces for others to harvest?
You must know that all the sects under the Hehuan Dao are essentially demonic sects!
The witches and witches of the Demon Sect are all very ambitious people, how could they be willing to make a furnace?
Could it be that he guessed wrong...
This Yaoyue Tower has nothing to do with Hehuan Dao Yuxia Sect?
After hearing Gu Qing's words, Xie Zhilan's expression changed.
Her delicate body was a little tight.
She did not reveal that she was a disciple of the Tianyin Sect of Hehuan Dao, nor did she reveal that the Yaoyue Building in Yinyuefang City was a subordinate property of the Tianyin Sect.
But the senior in front of me seems to have gained all kinds of insights!
"Don't be nervous, it's just a guess." Gu Qing raised his eyes and glanced at the young female cultivator Xie Zhilan, smiled, and shook his head.
Xie Zhilan was silent.
She just buried her head lower and looked at her feet.
The auction is in full swing.
After auctioning the Purple Phoenix Claw, a relatively special mid-grade spiritual weapon, five ordinary mid-grade spiritual weapons were auctioned in succession. Then, when the atmosphere was slightly gloomy, Gu Hanyue took out the first piece of today's auction. The high-grade spiritual weapon once again changed the atmosphere of the auction venue!
The first high-grade spiritual weapon is a treasure handed down from ancient times. It has no name. It looks half like a sea bowl and half like an alms bowl. It is completely blue in color.
According to what Gu Hanyue said.
If this top-grade spiritual weapon is the hub of the sect-protecting formation, that is, the eye of the formation, it can suppress the entire formation and increase the power of the formation to a protective power comparable to higher-level formations!
Even if it is not used as the formation eye of a large defensive formation, if this treasure is sacrificed, it can condense a huge barrier like an inverted sea bowl, erupting with astonishing defensive power. A sixth-level foundation-building monk once sacrificed it. He resisted the indiscriminate bombardment of a ninth-level foundation-building monk for three days. It was not until all the spirit stone pills and elixirs on his body were exhausted that he could no longer survive, and his defense was broken!
There is no need to say more about the fate of that sixth-level foundation-building monk.
But it is enough to show that this treasure is extraordinary!
Gu Qing is also extremely excited about this treasure.
With his spiritual power, which can be called abnormally rich, if he could sacrifice this treasure, he might even be able to withstand the cultivation of the eighth and ninth levels of Foundation Establishment just by relying on his body's fifth level of foundation building cultivation!
Then he made just three bids before giving up.
Just because, after Gu Qing bid three times for this treasure, the bidding price quickly soared to 40,000 yuan of mid-grade spiritual stones!
A total of 40,000 pieces of middle-grade spiritual stones!
But 40,000 mid-grade spiritual stones are not enough to seal the deal for this treasure!
This is simply because most of the bidders for this treasure are small sects, small families, the sect leaders of these small forces, or supreme elders. These small forces do not have a strong sect-protecting formation, so their lives are simply precarious, and they are often beaten. The evil cultivators had robbed the treasure, and now they came across this treasure. Naturally, the important figures in these small forces had the idea of taking pictures of it even if they emptied their wealth.
"Old Ghost Li, didn't your Li family invite formation masters to Qingshu Island thirty years ago and set up a powerful second-grade defensive formation? Haha! You still keep bragging to me that it's that The defensive formation is so tenacious that it can't be broken even by the monks who form the core... Why, why do you look like you want to sell yourself on the spot and take a picture of this treasure?"
"He Lezi! Didn't you say that too much..."
"Two of you, we'd better take the long term and don't hurt your harmony! As the saying goes... forty-five thousand five hundred middle-grade spiritual stones!"
In the noisy auction venue, there were constant noises and shouts of bids, and finally it reached the point where every mid-grade spiritual stone was worth a medium-grade spiritual stone.
Gu Qing felt like he was looking up at a high mountain.
After hearing the continuous bidding, which can be called "rich and wealthy", he felt that the spiritual stones he had obtained from Ye A were not enough. Before, he felt that during the foundation building period, Certainly no one is richer than him.
But now it seems...
There are hidden dragons and crouching tigers in the world of cultivation, so it’s better to be humble!
"Ahem!"
"Fifty-seven thousand six hundred and eleven medium-grade spiritual stones!" Following an exasperated voice and a heavy cough, there were no other monks bidding in the auction venue.
As for those who shouted and cursed... there were quite a few.
Through these shouts and curses, Gu Qing also knew that the person who took the photo of this high-grade spiritual weapon that looked half like a sea bowl and half like an alms bowl was named Li Qinghe, who was called "Old Ghost Li". He was from Changming Island. The ancestor of the Li family, one of the thirteen small monk families.
even.
Gu Qing and the Li family, a monk family, control the small islands under the jurisdiction of Changming Island. What are the surnames of the youngest descendants? What scandals have been caused recently? What are the names of the ancestors of the three generations above the Li family? Who are they? I have a general understanding of who has sex with women and who has sex with whom...
After Old Ghost Li took a picture of this high-grade spiritual weapon, he didn't say anything back and quietly waited for the waiter to deliver the treasure to the pavilion where he was.
Gu Qing guessed.
This old ghost Li Qinghe is probably preparing a secret method such as blood sacrifice. After getting this treasure, he will start to sacrifice it as soon as possible to prevent any accidents from happening after the auction.
"Congratulations to this fellow Taoist from Pavilion No. 2 for buying this treasure for fifty-seven thousand six hundred and eleven medium-grade spiritual stones!" Gu Hanyue said loudly on the auction stage, with a slight blush on his pretty face. red.
The transaction price of this first high-grade spiritual weapon was somewhat beyond her expectation, and it really gave her a big surprise.
After receiving this treasure, it was carried off the auction stage on a jade tray by two male attendants who were in the late stages of refining the weapon. Gu Hanyue took out the second high-grade spiritual weapon.
"This second high-grade spiritual weapon is for..."
Gu Qing withdrew his gaze and closed his eyes slightly.
The second high-grade spiritual weapon is a flying sword.
There is nothing unusual about it, and the starting price is nine thousand medium-grade spiritual stones.
Listening to the sparse bids around him, Gu Qing's expression was calm. He rubbed the storage ring on his little finger again with his big finger, and a crystal blue vial appeared in his hand.
This bottle of elixir was taken out by Gu Qing from Ye A's daughter's storage ring. I don't know how Ye A's daughter's cultivation world classifies her grades, but from Gu Qing's point of view, if placed in the world of cultivation, this bottle of elixir The grade should be the top grade of the second grade, or the lower grade of the third grade.
Although the difference between the top level of the second level and the lower level of the third level seems to be only a small level, in fact, the two are worlds apart.
Third-grade elixirs, even if they are only lower-grade, both in terms of price and potency, are much higher than those of top-grade second-grade pills!
'It's a bit strange... If this bottle of elixir is released into the vast world of cultivation, how should it be classified into grades? Gu Qing's consciousness focused into the elixir bottle and he looked at the ten elixirs inside. The light cyan texture and the white gas rising from it were flowing among the square-inch elixir bottles.
'According to what was obtained from the girl Fang Xin and recorded in the Zhoulu of Tiancai Dibao, this elixir should be the Lotus Heart Jade Dew Pill.
This Lotus Heart Jade Dew Pill is a fifth-level top-grade elixir in the Zhoulu Collection of Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures, but that is the division of the region where Ye A and Fang Xin are located. It is released to the cultivation world of Hanhai and Yunmiao Continent, and is given to Gu Qing It feels like the level of this elixir is just between the second and third levels.
