afternoon
The sun is just right, and it shines on people's bodies, making them feel warm all over.
Zhao Huai hummed a little tune and walked gracefully on the road.
This exercise auction was held at Tianwu Guild, which was still some distance from the east of the city.
The Tianwu Guild is the most popular and largest chamber of commerce in the entire Daxia. It has branches in every prosperous city in Zhongzhou, and Zhao Huai is currently going to the Tianwu branch in Jinzhou.
The Tianwu Guild was originally formed by a group of powerful monks. It has developed for more than 800 years and has become a giant. In addition to Zhongzhou, they can also be found in other remote places.
If a monk wants to obtain cultivation materials quickly, he will inevitably have to deal with them.
What they say internally is that the Tianwu Guild does not produce cultivation resources. They are just porters of resources, providing a platform for the majority of monks to trade.
Strictly speaking, it is detached from the world and has a longer life span than ordinary dynasties.
Zhao Huai passed through the bustling crowd and soon arrived at the address of Tianwu Branch.
In front of us is a very wide street, the ground is very clean, and as far as the eye can see, there are rows of exquisite attics, which are very grand, and the street entrance is full of lanterns.
What glows in the lantern is not fire, but spiritual stones.
In the eyes of truly powerful monks, gold, silver, and jewelry are meaningless, so there is no doubt that the hardest currency in the world, the world, and the court is spiritual stone. In addition, demon elixirs, demon bones, strange stones used for smelting and forging, and elixirs to assist in cultivation can also be traded.
But how many real monks are there?
Most people only enter the gate of cultivating immortals when they reach the foundation building level. It is very difficult to become a powerful monk. However, most people are stuck at the level of Qi training. Considering the situation of most people, gold and silver can also be used in guild transactions, but the exchange rate is very low.
Zhao Huai's net worth includes a lot of gold and silver, but his spiritual stones are still extremely limited, so his purchase of the technique this time is very targeted.
If it wasn't a very valuable skill to him, he wouldn't buy it.
The gate of Tianwu Branch.
The grand living room is filled with all kinds of people. Anyone who can come here is either rich or noble, so they are dressed in extremely luxurious clothes. Even some people with better family backgrounds will come here to see the world.
People were coming and going, Zhao Huai lazily entered the door and scanned around. The people with the highest cultivation levels here were all lower than the third level of Qi training, which was lower than he expected.
It's true to say that people with good qualifications have already joined the sect, so why are they still here?
Zhao Huai came to a quiet room and found an old man.
"Mr. Chu, long time no see." He greeted with a smile as soon as he entered.
"Hahaha, it's Mr. Zhao, you're finally here."
Mr. Chu is an old man wearing gray robes and a kind smile. His hair is all white and his face is full of wrinkles. He is already very old. He is the guest elder of the Tianwu Guild. He has been sitting in the Jinzhou branch for many years, just to lead one. pension.
Although he is old, in fact, he also has two levels of foundation building cultivation. He is over a hundred years old. When he was young, he was also a member of the front line of the Immortal Cultivation Sect. Now he is retiring in this branch.
"Is the pill you bought last time good? Judging from your complexion and mood, it seems that you have made another breakthrough."
Mr. Chu stroked his beard and looked at the heroic Zhao Huai with a smile, with unspeakable envy in his eyes.
The gap between people is huge. When he was as old as Zhao Huai, he was still struggling at one or two levels of Qi training.
"Thanks to you, the elixir last time was very good, but I encountered a small bottleneck in my practice, so I plan to take a look at the technique today." Zhao Huai responded with a faint smile.
"Kung Fu? There are new techniques this time. It seems there are some top quality ones. Let's see if you can get them."
Mr. Chu said meaningfully.
"Can't you reveal more?" Zhao Huai was determined and smiled at the same time.
"It would be nice to have more mystery." Mr. Chu shook his head and said with a smile.
Then Mr. Chu threw a token to Zhao Huai and said with a smile:
"The rooms have been reserved for you, just go directly. It's located near the front, and it's a luxurious single room."
Zhao Huai took the token and chuckled; "Thank you, I'll treat you to tea another day."
...
Arriving at the arranged luxurious single room, Zhao Huai lay comfortably on the mink lounge chair, with a good-looking maid beside him serving excellent tea and snacks.
His position is an open-air high platform with a suitable height, which can overlook the entire venue and clearly see the auction items.
There is a similar high platform next door, but there is no one there for the time being.
This height also prevents others from seeing who he is.
Because he comes often and spends a lot of money, it is not an exaggeration to say that he is a member of the Tianwu Guild. This is how he met Mr. Chu.
Besides, if cultivation is so tiring, why can’t we enjoy it?
People at the bottom lined up one after another to fill in the vacant seats, and the seats were quickly filled.
At the same time, a young man in dark green robes also came to the single room next to Zhao Huai, accompanied by followers. He was dressed very coquettishly and had three jade rings on one hand. It was obvious that his family had a lot of money and background.
Zhao Huai just glanced at him lightly.
Just an ordinary person without any cultivation.
The servant next to him, on the other hand, was quite capable and was obviously a bodyguard.
Zhao Huai immediately withdrew his gaze and took out the golden copper coins, intending to divine today's fortune.
[Misfortune and fortune depend on each other, let’s take a look at it]
[Hexagram 1: Be skilled in things, express the spirit in form, the auspicious star shines high, the instruction you get is "blessing"]
Tracing guide: blessings come and you gain a lot.
Seeing the words and guidance that appeared, Zhao Huai murmured:
"It sounds mysterious to be skilled in physical things and convey spirit to form. What do you mean by a large amount of harvest?"
"Money? Kung Fu?"
It was half white but not white, much like the Riddler, and Zhao Huai couldn't figure it out clearly.
Should I upgrade the fate of [Searching for Roots] in the future? Maybe the effect will be better?
No matter what, Zhao Huai's mood was filled with anticipation after being guided by the copper coins.
At this time, the young man in dark green robes on the side looked around from time to time, looking at everything very fresh. When he caught a glimpse of Zhao Huai's calm and quiet look next to him, he couldn't help but shout from the air:
"My dear friend, you look great. Do you know what precious things you want to take pictures of today?"
Zhao Huai glanced at him lightly.
"have no idea."
The young man in dark green robe seemed familiar, and he still said with a smile on his face:
"I, Li Yanqing, have been struggling to find a way to break through Qi training. This time I came to the auction to find a way."
"My dear friend, do you know some methods for quick breakthrough, or any experience in practicing?"
"have no idea."
Zhao Huai didn't even look at him. He stared at the auction items presented in the center of the lobby.
As the saying goes, a dead Taoist friend will never die but a poor Taoist.
Most monks are egoistic and generally do not worry about other people's affairs, even if they are making suggestions.
What's more, he wasn't familiar with this person either.
"The auction has officially begun!"
As the host shouted on the stage that the auction was about to begin, the dark green young man had no choice but to shut up, with a trace of regret in his eyes.
