While talking, the two of them did not hesitate and immediately walked towards the door. Little did he know that somewhere in a room on the third floor of the attic, an old man in a crane robe suddenly withdrew his gaze and said with a smile:
"The little guy does have some knowledge. No wonder he can make that girl so interested. It's just a pity. I won't be merciful because of this. If you want to exchange for my treasure, you can't do it without giving a little blood."
While speaking, his eyes suddenly glanced in a certain direction above the holy mountain, and his cloudy eyes showed unabashed greed.
He had coveted the secret vault of the Star Palace for hundreds of years, but unfortunately he never had the chance. I didn't expect that I would be unable to find it even if I walked through iron shoes, and it would take no effort at all.
I wonder if the two of them would be so depressed that they would vomit blood when they saw their precious daughter's behavior of "turning her elbows outward"?
When he thought of this, an unkind smile suddenly appeared on the old man's face.
…
"The environment here is pretty good."
Entering the first floor, you will see a hall. It can only be considered medium in size, but it is clean and tidy, with simplicity and elegance.
It can be seen from the decoration that Linglong Pavilion is not a traditional store. There is no counter, goods, etc. to display. Correspondingly, shopkeepers, waiters and the like also do not exist.
Instead, a beautiful middle-aged woman with a beautiful appearance and delicate temperament slowly walked down the stairs. She was wearing a navy blue dress and looked particularly dignified.
This woman's cultivation level is already in the real advanced stage of pill formation, and she is obviously not an ordinary person.
There was probably some surprise that someone would arrive so early. A trace of surprise flashed across his crystal eyes. In addition, the two people's cultivation was really low, so he couldn't help but wonder:
"The two of you came to this pavilion..."
Mo Juren naturally understood the other party's thoughts and knew that explanations were useless. He took out the invitation letter with a palm of his hand, and Ling Yuling on the side was no exception.
At this point, the beautiful woman in the blue dress finally realized that she was blind to the mountains.
You should know that although today's auction is held at the Nascent Soul level, most of the guests are friends of the ancestors, mainly Nascent Soul monks. However, those who can obtain an invitation letter to attend the conference by virtue of their cultivation in the Core Formation Stage or even the Foundation Establishment Stage must have an even more extraordinary status.
"My dear guests, please forgive me. I am slow-witted and careless. Please go upstairs and have a chat."
"It doesn't matter, it's just that we didn't explain it clearly at the first time."
Mo Juren's kind attitude immediately made the beautiful woman in blue dress very fond of her, and her words became warm.
The three of them went straight to the second floor. It was also a hall, but it had been carefully arranged for today's auction.
In the hall, there are more than ten girls who are busy shuttling back and forth, all of whom are in the Qi training stage. Through introduction, I found out that these women were all temporary disciples brought by the beautiful woman in blue dress from her own sect.
"Senior Chen is the wife of Master Wan of Tianqin Sect." Ling Yuling on the side explained in a low voice, which made the beautiful woman in blue dress look slightly surprised. She had always acted in a low-key manner, and she was even more reclusive on weekdays, but she never expected that the girl in front of her would tell her the truth.
"You don't have to be so outgoing, just call me sister." The beautiful woman in the blue dress smiled charmingly and said curiously,
"Sister, have you recognized sister before?"
"I happen to know a little bit." Ling Yuling nodded, but did not explain too much.
"It seems that my sister has an extraordinary background. Does she also know about my other identity?" The beautiful woman in a blue dress asked tentatively again.
"Sister is not simple either. Mr. Chen's direct descendant is the envy of even my younger sister."
"You really know." The beautiful woman in the blue dress couldn't help but laugh, but she became more and more curious about the origin of the other party. Of course she would not ask rudely directly, but she planned to ask her ancestors later.
As for now, his attitude is becoming more cordial, and he directly invites the two of them to sit down somewhere.
Because there were many distinguished guests arriving, the beautiful woman in blue dress was the one responsible for receiving them today, so she said goodbye at the right time. Before leaving, he suddenly thought of something, then took out two masks, put them down and said:
"The two distinguished guests should cover up a little to avoid unnecessary trouble."
After saying that, he led a group of female disciples downstairs.
"Can this thing block the spiritual detection of Yuanying stage monks?" Looking at the mask in his hand, Mo Juren couldn't help but wonder.
When he came, he thought about hiding his true appearance, but then gave up. Firstly, the power of his previous disguise mask was limited, and it was not up to the level of blocking the Nascent Soul Stage monks. Secondly, even if it could, it would still not be of much use. If a strong Yuanying Stage master is interested, there are many ways to find out. his message.
Instead of doing this, it is better to use the ones here. After all, for an auction of this level, a mask is a must.
"Of course you can." Ling Yuling also picked up one of the pictures, put it directly on her face and continued to explain,
"These masks are all from the Star Palace True Fire Palace. Although Mr. Zhou did not refine them himself, they are all high-quality products. They can definitely isolate the exploration of the monks in the early and middle stages of the Nascent Soul Stage."
"That's it." Mo Juren nodded slightly and put on the mask as well. Suddenly, a cold feeling came over him, and his whole body was covered by a layer of transparent spiritual light.
"Good stuff!" Mo Juren couldn't help but exclaimed in surprise when he felt the protective power of the mask. This thing is really good, especially for him, it is absolutely indispensable for 'traveling at home, killing people and setting fire'.
Unfortunately, this is not a disguise mask, and its practicality is greatly reduced.
Ling Yuling had been paying attention to the other party, and she naturally guessed something at this moment. Then she came closer and whispered: "I remember that there are still some spirit skins of ninth-level thousand phantom beasts left in the secret vault. If uncle needs it, I will take out one later." Let Mr. Zhou help you refine one."
"Thousand Fantasy Beast Skin!" Mo Juren was excited. It is one of the top spiritual materials most suitable for making disguise masks. It also has ever-changing effects, and it is also a ninth-level Thousand Fantasy Beast. If it is really refined, If successful, even the spiritual exploration of the great monks in the later stage of Yuanying can be blocked.
He naturally needs such a 'treasure', but the Thousand Fantasy Beasts are extremely rare monsters and are almost extinct now. I am afraid that this one in the Star Palace is just a stock in the past, and its value is inestimable.
】
At this time, while he was happy, he couldn't help but feel a little helpless. He didn't want to owe a favor, but he still couldn't escape.
He doesn't have an indecisive character. In this case, he simply doesn't bother to worry about it anymore. Just pay what you owe and pay it off slowly. As for giving up, that is naturally impossible. This kind of baby would choose to refuse if he has a brain problem.
Thinking of this, he nodded slightly towards the other party.
He didn't say anything about exchange, and he didn't even mention using spiritual stones to purchase it. If he actually said it, he would blush.
Of course, it's not possible to get it for nothing, it still has to be 'paid', but for a while he didn't know what to use to compensate.
Ling Yuling didn't pay attention to this, as if she just said a trivial matter, and after receiving the reply, she stopped talking and started chatting in a low voice about other things.
Time passed quickly, and soon there were footsteps again, but it was another participant who arrived.
The person who came was a strange man, with an ordinary appearance but an unusually tall figure. There was no mask on his face, and he obviously didn't care much about it.
Seeing someone in the hall, the burly man took a look subconsciously. Only then did he discover that they were actually two juniors, one was in the middle stage of pill formation, and the other was only in the foundation stage.
This is interesting! The burly man understood what was going on almost instantly, and then nodded slightly to the two of them, looking kind.
"This is Master Shi from Hongyue Island. He has profound knowledge in formations..." Ling Yuling whispered again and briefly introduced the origin of the burly man.
"It's him!" Mo Juren really knew this person. He also had a daughter. In the original fate line, he and Han Li, the 'Lone Star of Heavenly Evil', 'launched a dungeon' and were killed by the old ghost Xuan Gu. hand.
Of course, everything is different now. The old ghost Xuan Gu turned into a drop of liquid and was swallowed by him, and the Fairy Stone Butterfly did not have to die at a young age.
While thinking, footsteps sounded again, and it was also an early Yuanying monk, but a beautiful woman wearing a green skirt...
Time passed slowly, and as it got closer to noon, more and more people came. Ninety percent of them are monks at the Nascent Soul Stage, and only a few are at the Dan Formation Stage, all of whom have extraordinary backgrounds.
Less than a third of these people chose to wear masks, obviously not intending to cover up.
This made Mo Juren a little surprised. Ling Yuling on the side immediately gave an explanation. Basically, the attendees were all close friends of Master Linglong. Everyone was familiar with each other, so the mask naturally had no effect.
"So that's it!" Mo Juren suddenly understood, and as Ling Yuling introduced their identities one by one, he couldn't help but sigh at the vast number of friends this real person Linglong had. Among the more than thirty Nascent Soul Stage monks present in front of him, not only casual cultivators , moreover the righteous path, the demonic path, and even the elders of the Star Palace.
These people can sit together calmly, which shows the influence of the owner here.
Mo Juren became more and more curious about this Linglong Master. He didn't wait too long. As everyone arrived, a silver-haired old man wearing a crane robe slowly walked into the hall.
"Comrades, it's been a long time." On the main seat in the center, Master Linglong did not take his seat immediately, but smiled and greeted.
"We haven't seen each other for many years. Brother Chen's appearance has not changed, but his cultivation has become more and more advanced. I really admire Shi." Master Shi of Hongyue Island was the first to respond.
"Brother Shi is not bad either. I heard that he just realized an ancient strange formation not long ago. He must have improved his understanding of the formation to a higher level. It is really gratifying..."
"The formation is just a trick, Brother Chen is so complimentary..." When it comes to his own advantages, although Shi Zhenren is modest in words, his eyes reveal great confidence unconsciously.
Master Linglong chuckled, but then turned to look elsewhere and smiled again: "Isn't this Fairy Mingyu from Xueyun Island? Congratulations to fellow Taoist for finding a good disciple."
"Fellow Daoist Chen is really well-informed. I can't hide this little thing from you." The beautiful woman in a green dress shook her head slightly, but she obviously didn't want to say anything and immediately fell silent.
Master Linglong didn't care, and moved his eyes again to say hello to the other person...
One, two...
There were more than twenty people who showed their true appearance, and none of them were left behind, and they exchanged greetings one by one. He smiled from beginning to end, his demeanor was natural, and his words did not make people feel embarrassed.
Mo Juren couldn't help but admire him. No wonder he could hold an auction at regular intervals. Without this communicative ability and sufficient influence, it would be impossible.
Of course, those monks wearing masks and a few juniors in the alchemy stage were not among them. The other party also consciously chose to ignore it and did not reveal any information.
"Okay, it's getting late, I won't be nagging anymore, the auction will start immediately. As for the rules, they are still the same as before. Considering that there are new friends and a few friends with special status, I will elaborate a little bit. , I hope you can understand." After the greetings, Master Linglong's expression became serious, and then he gave instructions to the beautiful woman in blue skirt beside him,
"Ru'er, I'll leave the rest to you."
After saying that, he sat down directly at the main seat and said no more words.
After receiving the order, the beautiful woman in blue dress naturally did not dare to neglect. After bowing respectfully, she walked to the center and said softly:
"I am just a junior, and I am hosting this auction under the order of my ancestor. If I am rude in any way, I hope you seniors will be tolerant..."
"As for the auction process, it is very simple, almost the same as those outside..."
"The first round is the auction of our items. A base price will be given. After that, there will be fair competition. The one with the highest price will win..."
"The second round is a free exchange meeting. Everyone takes out the treasures they have prepared, and then just submits the price and the items they intend to exchange. This pavilion only provides a platform and will not participate in it..."
"..."
Listening to the other party's introduction, Mo Juren looked at Ling Yuling with some surprise. The other party had mentioned before that Linglong was addicted to treasures and held the auction just to make it easier to collect treasures. Why would he prepare the auction items in advance?
"Uncle, don't forget Sister Chen's identity. Those are all Tianqin Sect's things..." Ling Yuling noticed the other party's thoughts and gave an explanation in time.
Even though the woman in the blue skirt is only a monk in the alchemy stage, standing behind her is the real person Linglong. Therefore, in the Tianqin Sect, there is almost one single existence, that is, her husband, the leader of the Tianqin Sect, a monk in the early stage of Nascent Soul does not dare to neglect.
Sect Leader Wan of the Tianqin Sect also has an ascetic temperament and is busy practicing on weekdays. Almost all the affairs of the sect are handled by this newly married lady. The other party is also very capable. Over the years, the sect has been well organized and prosperous. Linglong Pavilion will also participate in every auction held.
Listening to these introductions, Mo Juren became more and more impressed by the woman in front of him, who had a charming temperament and a voice as delicate as a woman from a water town.
At this time, the beautiful woman in the blue dress finally finished introducing all the procedures, and then she looked solemn and continued: "That's it, this auction has officially begun, and I will introduce the first lot to everyone..."
While he was talking, a female disciple with a beautiful face slowly came forward, her hands holding up a wooden tray about a foot long and wide, covered with a red cloth. I don't know what it was?
When she got closer, the beautiful woman in the blue dress did not hesitate, and immediately opened the red cloth, revealing a white jade box half a foot square. The lid of the box slowly opened, revealing a strange Ganoderma that was completely transparent and continuously released an astonishing cold air.
