The man sent Li Qiye and the others to an island. On this island, there were ancient palaces and strange towers, even shrouded in clouds and mist. This was the place where Dongtingfang entertained distinguished guests.
It is also the place where distinguished guests are received before this private auction.
Of course, there was a reason why Li Qiye and the others were sent to this island. Otherwise, guests who were not invited or qualified would not be able to enter this island.
On this island, there are wonderful buildings with corridors and corridors, and there is an atmosphere of classical elegance everywhere. It seems that such buildings have been inherited from ancient times, and among such buildings, It seems like a maze, no matter where you go, you can't reach the end.
Those who were sent to this island were all distinguished guests. These distinguished guests were either the ancestors of the great religions or powerful men who represented a certain behemoth. After all, there are some unrivaled powerful beings who would not be born easily. Therefore, when they want to obtain a certain treasure, they do not necessarily need to attend such an auction in person, they can just send their disciples as representatives.
Of course, Dongtingfang has received such guests countless times.
After entering the island, in the ancient palace of the building, the guests who entered seemed quiet. Most of them were quietly waiting for the auction in the main hall.
After all, for these big shots, most of them come to participate in such a private auction at this time because of a certain treasure, not just to watch the fun. Therefore, they all have clear goals in their hearts, and even He has very precise calculations.
For example, which treasure they are going to win, at what price they are going to sell it, and what kind of opponent they are going to target... It can be said that for the big shots who participate in such private auctions, they are very cautious. attitude, after all, their bidding opponents are almost evenly matched big shots, so they are very careful and determined to win the treasure they have locked.
Most of the guests waiting in the main hall remained silent or concealed their true identities so that others could not see their true identities. This also had multiple purposes.
Some big shots hide their real identities just because they don't want others to know that they have won a certain treasure. They may not want to be targeted by their enemies, or this may be a strategy for an auction.
After all, those who can come here to participate in the auction have experienced ups and downs, and have famous and powerful enemies, which is normal.
Some big shots come alone to participate in such auctions, hiding their true identities and keeping a very low profile. However, there are also big shots who don't care about their identities being exposed. They are surrounded by many disciples, cheering and cheering. The scene was very grand, and even as I looked at it, I looked proudly at it.
There were some unparalleled people who did not come to participate in such an auction, but were represented by their disciples.
Such a disciple of noble birth and powerful strength is also very flamboyant, even determined to win a certain treasure, and no one is allowed to compete with him.
……………………
It can be said that this private auction brought together many great figures in Tianjiang or their disciples, as well as the ancestors of all the major religions in the world.
When Li Qiye and the others entered the hall, a lot of people looked over at them. However, after taking a closer look at Li Qiye and the others, not many people took it to heart. After all, all the distinguished guests present were The origins were astonishing, so Li Qiye and his group seemed a bit unremarkable, even a bit like guests who enhanced the atmosphere.
Of course, some of them were acquainted with Mingzu, so they just said hello. After all, Mingzu was also an ancestor of the generation and had experienced many ups and downs. Even if the four major families were not as prestigious as they were back then, they still had some problems. Jiye, so there are many ancestors who recognize Mingzu, but they don't have much friendship, just a nod of acquaintance, so when they see him, they just say hello.
However, there are also some big shots who are very curious about Li Qiye's identity, but they have not asked about it. After all, for these big shots, many things are not surprising.
"Brother Wu, it's been a long time." In this hall, it was certainly impossible for Li Qiye to meet an acquaintance, but Mingzu met an acquaintance.
In a corner of the hall, as soon as an old man saw Mingzu, he immediately stepped forward, greeted Mingzu, and gave him a hug.
This ancestor is already very old, but he has a formidable air and looks very strong with age. His momentum is amazing and his strength is also extraordinary. He may not be weaker than Mingzu.
"Brother Turtle, it's been a thousand years since we last met." Mingzu couldn't help but smile when he saw this old man. He never thought that he would meet an old friend at such an auction.
"Brother Turtle came to the Golden City and didn't come to sit down in a humble house. It's really like living apart from one another. Could it be that after not seeing each other for a thousand years, we have forgotten our old friends." After Mingzu hugged him, he couldn't help but smile and complain.
Strong monks, especially the ancestors, can live for thousands of years. To a mortal, a thousand years is ten lives, but to the ancestors, it is also different. noodle.
Of course, despite this, a thousand years is still a thousand years. Even old friends from back then would be quite disappointed to see each other again after a thousand years.
"I came here in a hurry this time. I couldn't meet Brother Wu. I'm rude. I'm rude." The old man was also ashamed and clasped his fists to show his guilt.
"Come, come, come, we have all met the ancestors. From now on, meeting the ancestors of the Wu family will be like meeting me." At this time, the old man introduced Mingzu to the juniors behind him.
The juniors behind the old man were all very impressive and looked like outstanding figures in the sect. They all stepped forward to pay homage to Mingzu.
"All of them are like dragons and phoenixes among men." Mingzu couldn't help but praise when he saw it. Compared with his old friends, the Wu family has indeed declined a lot.
Mingzu couldn't help but sigh and said: "Back then, Brother Turtle was a proud man of heaven. Today, the great path must be successful."
"Little Ri'er, alas." Speaking of his apprentice, the ancestor couldn't help but sigh softly, shook his head, and said, "Let's not talk about it for now, Brother Wu will also introduce you."
"Have you met the turtle-fishing ancestor from the outlying island soon?" At this time, Mingzu called Jian Guolang.
In such a scene, Jian Merchant certainly couldn't lose the aura of his ancestor, so he puffed up his chest, stepped forward, and bowed respectfully.
Although Jian Gonglang is usually unreliable and even a bit careless, when he is really required to support the scene, he is still very reliable.
"Yes, yes, this boy has very good qualifications, very good." The turtle fishing ancestor from the outlying island couldn't help but praise.
Ancestor Diao Turtle is a powerful ancestor of Lidao, and Lidao is the inheritance of a great religion in the Eastern Wasteland. Legend has it that this heritage was founded by a cowherd boy.
In those distant years, one day suddenly, an island descended from the sky, and the cowherd boy happened to have a chance. He landed on the island and had an adventure. He became unparalleled, swept the world, and founded an outlying island sect.
Ancestor Diao Bie was a close friend of Mingzu when he was young. Although the two sects were far apart, their friendship was still very good, but they only rarely met each other.
"This is -" At this time, Patriarch Diao Bie's eyes fell on Li Qiye. When he looked at Li Qiye, he felt strange because Li Qiye didn't look like a disciple of Mingzu.
"This is our ancient ancestor." Mingzu hurriedly whispered: "Call him the young master."
"Your ancestors—" Mingzu said this, and the ancestor Diao Biao couldn't help but be startled, and he couldn't help but look at Li Qiye carefully.
No matter how you look at it, Li Qiye does not have the temperament of an ancient ancestor. In Li Qiye's opinion, he is mediocre, and even his Taoism has not reached the level that an ancient ancestor should have.
From all aspects, Li Qiye looked more like an ordinary disciple of Ming Ancestor than an ancient ancestor.
However, Patriarch Diao Bie and Ming Zu had been friends since they were young. The two had a close friendship. Of course, he knew that Ming Zu could not lie to him. He also felt strange in his heart and wondered why such a young man would become a member of the Wu family. Ancient Ancestor.
Even though he was confused, he bowed deeply to Li Qiye and invited Li Qiye to sit in the corner where they were. Then he pulled Mingzu aside and said quietly: "Why didn't you listen to Brother Wu? It’s a matter of ancient ancestors.”
"This is hard to explain in one sentence." Mingzu said in a low voice: "In this Taichu meeting, please come back to Guzu to revitalize the family."
When Mingzu said this, Patriarch Diao Bie understood something. After all, they had a close friendship and knew about the Taichu Meeting. He smiled bitterly, shook his head slightly, and said: "I'm afraid I won't go to the Taichu Meeting. I'm afraid I won't gain much if I go. After the auction, I have to rush back to the outlying island."
"Is there something wrong with the sect?" After all, they are good friends, and even if they meet once in a thousand years, they still have a close friendship. Therefore, Ming Zu couldn't help but be concerned when the Diao Bie Ancestor said it.
"It's not a small day yet." Diao Bie Ancestor sighed with emotion.
"What's wrong with your wise nephew?" Mingzu asked, "When I saw him back then, he was very high-spirited. I think his qualifications will definitely take over your mantle, or even surpass you."
"This boy's talent has always been very good, and I like him very much." Mingzu nodded and said: "I also gave him all my money to teach him, but he was just a little too eager. A hundred years ago, he wanted to break through the barrier and cross the bottleneck. If you are in a hurry, you will become obsessed with it, and you will not be able to escape even half of your body."
"What a pity." After hearing this, Mingzu couldn't help but sigh. Thousands of years are neither long nor short, but it is often possible for a white-haired person to give a black-haired person.
"This time, there is a pill in Dongtingfang for auction. I want to get it and give it a try for Xiao Ri'er." Ancestor Diao Biao also whispered to Ming Ancestor. After all, they are good friends, so he is not afraid to say this.
