In the blink of an eye, more than a month has passed, and Yaoguang's little chef in Black Rock City has become famous. Even the city lord, Zhenjun Moran, has been here three times.
On this day, I heard from a diner that there will be an auction in the city ten days later.
The auction is nothing special, but this time is different. In this auction, there is a special spiritual object, the finale of the auction, called the "Condensing Infant Fruit", which can help monks increase their success rate by more than 50% when condensing Nascent Soul.
Ai Xiao, who has always loved to laugh, suddenly lost his composure when he heard the news.
She summoned her companions, looked serious, and said solemnly: "I want this Ningying Fruit, but my spirit stone is definitely not enough. I hope everyone can help me!"
"What the hell is this? It's necessary!"
"That's right, I still have more than three million spirit stones here. If you don't have enough, you can use them first."
"No problem, we'll get it for you."
...
After hearing everyone's words, Ai Xiao faced everyone and bowed deeply.
In fact, who doesn’t want the Ningying Fruit? However, among the people present, if I had to choose one person, the one who would be the first to use the Ningying Fruit would naturally be Ai Xiao. Because, except for her, who is perfect in the Golden Core and can take that step and enter the Nascent Soul Stage at any time, other people won't be able to use it even if they get the Ningying Fruit now.
With the previous incident involving Demon Lord Haoyu, everyone also hopes that the team can have a Nascent Soul stage, so that they don't have to be trapped in Black Rock City and can go out and continue traveling.
Among the people present, no matter who it is, even one person alone may not be able to produce the spirit stone that captured the Ning Ying Fruit.
Lending a large sum of spirit stones is naturally a sign of great trust in a person, but giving up the bid for the Ning Ying Fruit and lending the spirit stones on hand to a person is more than just trust.
Cen Xinyue said: "For a good thing like the Ningying Fruit, there will definitely be a lot of bidders, so we'd better count how many spirit stones we can get. If it's not enough, we can sell some things that we can't use temporarily. Minato.”
She first reported the number of spiritual stones she had on hand: "I have about 3.2 million spiritual stones."
Ai Xiao immediately reported his spiritual stone reserves: "I have 3.8 million."
Ji Yin: "Two million six hundred thousand."
Sun Yurou: "One million."
Jiang Xianyun: "Six hundred thousand."
After the five people reported the number of spiritual stones in their hands, they all looked at Chen Haoran.
Chen Haoran: "About six million."
As soon as this number came out, the five girls suddenly opened their eyes wide and stared at Chen Haoran in disbelief.
Jiang Xianyun even shouted with an exaggerated expression: "Oh my God, Fellow Daoist Chen, you, you are too exaggerated, you are ten times more powerful than me! Is your Seven Star Sect so rich? Are you still accepting people? I will join your Seven Star Sect. How is Zong?"
Chen Haoran said with some embarrassment: "Actually, I was very poor a few years ago. All of this was due to some accidents. It seems that my financial luck is pretty good."
Ai Xiao breathed a sigh of relief and said: "A total of 17.2 million, it should be enough."
Cen Xinyue thought about it and said with some worry: "Normally speaking, it should be enough, but I am afraid that some people are not shooting alone, but using the strength of the entire sect to shoot, then it may not be possible."
Ai Xiao nodded, shook his head, and said: "It is indeed possible, but the Ningying Fruit can be regarded as a priceless treasure. I estimate that the actual auction price should be around 10 million. If it exceeds this price, It’s not worth it anymore. After all, there are still many spiritual objects in this world that have better effects than the Ningying Fruit.”
Then, she smiled bitterly and said: "But, if the price really reaches 10 million, then I will owe a huge debt of more than 6 million, and I don't know when I can pay it off."
Jiang Xianyun joked with a smile: "If you only have 10 million, you can just ask local tycoon Brother Haoran to borrow the spirit stone. It doesn't matter if you can't pay it back, just sell yourself to him... work for him, and give him a Nascent Soul Lord." If you work part-time, the wages should be much higher, right?"
Chen Haoran ignored Jiang Xianyun's joke and said: "Actually, taking the Ningying Fruit directly is not the best choice. This time we have to take pictures of the Ningying Fruit anyway, and I will find some other elixirs later. The auxiliary medicine can be refined into the Ningying Dan. If it can be refined, I dare not say if it is more than one batch, but six pills should not be a problem."
If it fails, it goes without saying that there is no scum.
Ai Xiao asked: "Ningying Pill? How effective is it?"
"One elixir can increase the chance of infant condensation by about 50 to 60%, which is slightly better than taking the infant condensation fruit directly."
Chen Haoran said truthfully: "It's just that alchemy is risky. It may succeed or it may fail. Needless to say, if you succeed, you will make a lot of money. If you fail, you will lose money to your grandma's family."
Ai Xiao pondered for a while and said, "Let's wait until we take a picture of the Ningying Fruit. I don't know if I can take a picture of it."
In fact, if the six people were willing to spend the amount of spiritual stones they had put together, they would certainly be enough. The problem is that refining the Ningying Pill requires a lot of auxiliary medicines, and the cost of those medicines is also a lot. If you buy the Ningying Fruit but don’t have the spirit stone to buy the auxiliary medicines, it will be a big deal.
The most important thing is, do you want to gamble with the Condensing Infant Fruit that you bought with so many spirit stones?
This kind of thing is definitely not something that one of the six people can decide, and it needs to be discussed by everyone.
If Ai Xiao borrowed the spirit stone to buy it, it would naturally belong to her alone, and the decision rests with her. But if she takes out the Ning Ying Fruit that she photographed and prepares to refine it into elixirs, everyone will naturally have to share the spirit stones to bear the cost, and the risk cannot be borne by her alone. If it is alchemy, then everyone has a share, and it is just a matter of taking the more and taking the less.
Time flies by in an instant, and ten days passed by without even realizing it.
The auction was held at the largest auction house in Black Rock City. Everyone had to "verify their capital" before entering the auction house. Anyone with a net worth of less than 200,000 yuan was not allowed to enter.
However, Chen Haoran and others will naturally not be blocked from the door, and they have reserved a box in advance, and each box costs 100,000 spiritual stones. Compared to the goal of this trip, 100,000 spirit stones, it’s just drizzle.
The reason why I chose the private room was for safety reasons. If the Ning Ying Fruit was photographed, it would reduce the possibility of someone discovering my identity and being concerned about it. Although it was not foolproof, it at least reduced the possibility. Secondly, it is naturally for the convenience of everyone being able to discuss things together at any time.
However, everyone unanimously decided that local tyrant Brother Haoran would bear the responsibility for the spiritual stone in this box.
Without it, he would be the richest among everyone. The habit of beating local tyrants is not unique to the earth. It is probably a common trait among all human beings.
They entered the box and waited for almost two quarters of an hour before the host finally appeared on stage.
This is a beautiful female cultivator in the middle stage of the Golden Elixir, with a hint of charm in her words.
"Welcome all distinguished guests to attend this auction. Without further ado, let's start now!"
"Now, please bring out the first auction item: Xuanhuo Yuan Tower!"
