At one moment, the auction bell rang in the hall on the first floor of Yuqiong Pavilion.
Thousands of monks and merchants from all over the world sat down after paying the admission fee, waiting for the first item to be auctioned.
Although everyone was very excited, no one dared to make a loud noise, because the Yuqiong Pavilion here is the largest auction house within a radius of thousands of miles.
The auction host of this conference is Feng Ruoyun, the deacon of Yuqiong Pavilion, who is a member of Feng Ruyu's clan.
Feng Ruoyun, who was six feet tall and dressed in a green shirt, walked up to the auction table in the hall, looked at the crowd below, and introduced the first lot.
"The Sapphire Sword, a master-level sword, is three feet long and weighs forty-five kilograms and six taels in total. It is made of ten thousand-year-old fine iron under the endless fire domain. It blows off the hair and breaks the hair. The starting price is two thousand spiritual stones!" "
The spiritual wine brewed by the ten thousand year elixir is the finale of this auction. Instead of bidding directly at the beginning, some precious treasures provided by various monks are auctioned first to attract low-end buyers.
"I'm offering 2,500 spiritual stones! Don't follow me anymore." A young monk in black clothes in front of the auction hall shouted calmly.
"I am willing to pay three thousand spirit stones for this sword. Little brother, please don't fight with me!" An old man in green clothes immediately raised the price.
"I offer four thousand spiritual stones! I am determined to get it." A round-faced man in the table said loudly.
...
"I'm offering eight thousand spiritual stones, are there any of you who are higher than me?" Someone also said in the private room on the second floor, doubling the price, which immediately made many interested bidders retreat.
"I'll offer you ten thousand spirit stones!" Many of the monks who came today were also aggressive. In addition, there were many people who were brave enough to bid at the same place. The highest bidder won, and the price was immediately raised on the second floor.
"I'll offer 12,000 spiritual stones!" A man in a white shirt also joined the bidding in the hall.
"Fifteen thousand spirit stones, I want this sword!" Another family on the second floor seemed to have taken a fancy to the sapphire sword and offered a higher price.
"Sixteen thousand spiritual stones!" Another woman in the private room on the second floor was unwilling to be outdone and added a higher price.
...
You Ruo, Xun'er and Feng Ruyu were sitting in the private room on the second floor. Seeing the first auction item, everyone was vying for it, and they didn't know what kind of sky-high prices the next items would fetch.
Only then did the two women know about such an auction, and even they could only watch it.
Next, Feng Ruoyun released several more items for auction, including the rare medicinal material Purple Tiangen, the precious flower species Orchid Qionghua, the fine elixir Tianyu Agar, and several peerless materials for making swords.
Each auction item caused a commotion among the people in the audience. Guests in the private room on the second floor even bid, and participated in the auction from time to time. The momentum of the auction became lively for a while.
"Dear distinguished guests, the next auction item is a piece of elixir, a soul-nourishing root. If the monks have been harmed by their souls, you can consider it. This is a rare elixir!"
Feng Ruoyun looked at the thousands of monks in the hall with a smile, and said loudly, "The soul-nurturing wood is so precious that I don't need to waste any time on it. The starting price is five thousand spiritual stones!"
Hearing that the starting price for such a small piece of wood was as high as five thousand spirit stones, everyone in the hall couldn't help but feel shocked and excited. The preciousness of nourishing the soul is really worth tens of thousands of gold!
"Six thousand spirit stones! It's so small, so it won't be of much use, right?" A man in black in the back row of the auction hall immediately called out.
"I'm willing to bid seven thousand spiritual stones!" An old man in the front row raised his head and said seriously.
"Eight thousand five hundred spiritual stones!" The private room next to the stairs on the second floor quoted the price for the first time.
"Ten thousand spirit stones!" Another elegant room on the second floor seemed to be interested.
"We have fifteen thousand spiritual stones, plus a vat of spiritual wine brewed with ten thousand years of elixir!" Youruo reported his price under Feng Ruyu's instruction.
A group of monks and merchants in the hall were stunned when they heard the price quoted for the private room on the second floor. They didn't know the value of this spiritual wine.
Feng Ruoyun on the auction stage was unhurried, looked at the people in the audience and said with a smile: "This is what one of our customers entrusted us to take... The auction of spiritual wine will start later, and the starting price is 50,000 spiritual stones. Everyone You can refer to it yourself.”
At this time, both the private rooms upstairs and the monks in the hall downstairs were stunned. Spending 65,000 spiritual stones for a small piece of soul-nurturing wood, are you crazy? !
For a moment, everyone stopped talking and stopped raising the price.
In the end, the soul-nurturing wood fell into Feng Ruyu's hands... everything was as she expected.
For her, even if someone increases the price, she will continue to shoot, because this is what Li Xiuyuan wants to get no matter what.
...
The auction downstairs continued to be hot. Feng Ruoyun took a sip of water, happily looked at the people in the audience, and started the third round of ore auction.
"The item in the third round of auction is a piece of black iron ore, which also comes from the Endless Fire Domain. It is pure in texture and is a must-have for casting swords and swords... The starting price is six thousand spiritual stones!"
"I'll offer eight thousand spiritual stones, give it to me!" Yajian beside Youruo directly raised the price.
"I offer 11,000 spiritual stones, I want this stone!" A young man in a white shirt shouted loudly in the hall.
...
Li Xiuyuan did not wake up from his sleep, but still slept in bed with his eyes closed.
Even after sleeping for two days and two nights, there was still no sign of waking up.
A weak breeze blew from the window, and Li Xiuyuan fell into a strange illusion in his sleep.
Under the quiet moonlight, there was an illusory figure standing quietly in the attic.
Li Xiuyuan thought he had seen it wrong, rubbed his eyes, looked up again, and found an illusory figure standing in front of him, like a ghost.
The vaguely visible ghost was an old man with white hair and a green shirt. He was looking at him quietly, as if he wanted to tell him a thousand words. There was a trace of endless years of vicissitudes in the old man's eyes.
"Who are you?" Li Xiuyuan stood up suddenly and stared at the illusory old man in front of him. He looked very kind, but a ghost-like person suddenly appeared in his dream, which made him feel very strange.
Hearing Li Xiuyuan's voice, the old man couldn't help but smile, with a hint of surprise in his eyes: "Little guy, you can actually see me?"
"You haven't answered my question yet." Li Xiuyuan stared at the illusive old man quietly.
The old man couldn't help but smile gently when he heard this, and replied slowly: "Don't worry, I'm just a soul that has been dead for many years."
"Senior, where are you from?" Li Xiuyuan frowned. Although the old man in front of him was illusory, it gave him an ethereal feeling, not like a simple soul. It felt very extraordinary.
"I have nothing to do, would you like to chat with me?" The old man sat down on a chair in the room, looked up at Li Xiuyuan and said quietly.
Li Xiuyuan frowned slightly and just sat quietly on the bed. Because he did not feel the murderous aura in the old man, the old man in front of him seemed to be an ordinary guest in the building.
"It's really not easy for you to be in the Foundation Establishment realm and be able to see me." Seeing Li Xiuyuan's silence, the old man looked at him with a smile and said.
"Grandpa, who are you?" Li Xiuyuan thought about the other party's identity and the reason why he came to find him. Is it for money or other things.
"I said that I am the founder of Tianxiang Academy, do you believe it?" The old man looked at him and said calmly.
Li Xiuyuan couldn't help laughing when he heard this, looked at the old man up and down, and said quietly: "Grandpa, your joke is not funny at all. I am not a student of Tianxiang Academy!"
"I don't think it's funny either." The old man smiled gently and said, "Because you are destined to Tianxiang Academy, and I also know that you are going to the Endless Flame Territory, so I came to find you..."
"How is that possible?" Li Xiuyuan lay on the bedside with his hands on the back of his head and asked in a daze: "Grandpa, how did you know that I was going to the Endless Flame Domain of Tianxiang Academy? Even if I went, it was just a quick farewell... ..”
"You sit and chat with that girl all day long, even if I don't want to hear it." The old man looked at him and smiled meaningfully, and said: "But what makes me wonder is, how could you, a Foundation Establishment level person, see me? of."
"I can't help it. My eyes are invincible and I can see through all the lies in the world!" Li Xiuyuan shrugged helplessly.
The old man opened his mouth wide, looked at him and said: "The Eye of Deception? You actually got the legendary divine eye? The world is so vast, and there are so many wonders?!"
The old man smiled slightly, but said no more.
After a long time, Li Xiuyuan said quietly: "Senior, I am going to find two things in the Endless Fire Realm. Can you help me?"
The old man was startled, looked at him and asked, "What kind of opportunities are you looking for in that place? Tell me."
Li Xiuyuan was happy when he heard this, looked at him and said: "I want to feel a trace of the flame sword intention in the Wufei Fire Domain, and I also want to find a sheltering orchid for a friend of mine..."
Li Xiuyuan told the old man his thoughts.
The old man looked at him and nodded, and said with a smile: "You have the eye to destroy delusion. Since you have entered the realm of endless fire, it is not difficult as long as you use your heart to understand..."
"As for that shielding orchid you need? That's an interesting fate, isn't it?" The old man laughed.
"Grandpa, can you help me? I'm willing to pay some price. My friend here needs this elixir very much." Li Xiuyuan looked at the old man's strange smile and couldn't help but increase his tone.
"We can't talk about this. We will know where you go. In this way, you really have some fate with Tianxiang Academy. Those two female dolls came here to find you and stayed with another female doll. Together......"
The old man looked at Li Xiuyuan, the smile on his face getting stronger and stronger.
Li Xiuyuan was stunned, looked at him and asked, "Youruo also come to participate in this auction?"
"I don't know why they came here, but they are serious about coming to you." The old man smiled and said: "Little guy, can I ask you a favor?"
"Tell me about it and see if I can help?" Li Xiuyuan replied seriously.
"If you enter the Endless Fire Territory in the future, if you have free time, can you go to the Fire Territory Abyss and light a stick of century-old agarwood for me?" The old man looked at him with an expectant look on his face.
Li Xiuyuan was a little surprised when he heard this, but still nodded. He smiled and said, "I happen to have this thing. If I get to the edge of the abyss, I will definitely help you fulfill this wish."
"Thank you!" After a long time, the old man stood up quietly and said lightly: "It's time for me to go."
When Li Xiuyuan saw it, he quickly asked: "Grandpa, what is your name? What will you say if I get there?"
The old man didn't speak, just stretched out his finger and tapped him. A golden light flew into Li Yeyuan's head and then disappeared.
"See you again if we are destined." The old man left a vague word, then quietly walked out, but disappeared without a trace in an instant, leaving no trace in the room.
Li Xiuyuan immediately sat up from the bed and looked at the old man's illusory back. After all, he didn't say much. This old man was so mysterious that he didn't know what to say.
In the room, Li Xiuyuan opened his eyes and found that he was still lying on the bed, and he was stunned there.
"Destiny comes and goes? Is it a dream? Or..."
...
