I conquer the immortal with my strength.

Chapter 302 Auction

“Yes, so every time the Xuanwu Secret Realm is opened, the ancestors in the late Nascent Soul stage are definitely unwilling to go in. Although the Xuanwu Blood Pearl and other natural treasures are extremely precious, and even worth the early Nascent Soul stage ancestors to risk their lives to find, but for the late Nascent Soul stage ancestors, those natural treasures are not that precious, and they are definitely unwilling to take the risk for them.

Even for an ancestor in the middle stage of the Nascent Soul, most of them would not be willing to take the risk after weighing the pros and cons, thinking that their cultivation would be suppressed to the level where they could only be comparable to that of a powerful ancestor in the early stage of the Nascent Soul. Only a few would be willing to take the risk and enter the Xuanwu Secret Realm.

In fact, because of the restrictions of the Xuanwu Secret Realm, it is said that every time it is opened, not many Nascent Soul Early Stage ancestors enter. It is mainly those Nascent Soul Early Stage ancestors who are in urgent need of the few spiritual medicines that can only be found in the depths of the Xuanwu Secret Realm who will venture in. "Ren Xiaoyao explained in an orderly manner.

"I see. By the way, do you know where this Xuanwu token came from? How many will appear in this auction?" Xia Daoming felt relieved when he heard this, and he breathed a sigh of relief. He even began to look forward to the Xuanwu Secret Realm.

"The Xuanwu token comes from Xuanyin Island, which has some connection with the Xuanwu Secret Realm. It is said that when the Xuanwu Secret Realm first appeared, it was unknown to outsiders. Only the people of Xuanyin Island knew about it, and only the people of Xuanyin Island could enter it.

Because Xuanyin Island enjoyed the exclusive access to the Xuanwu Secret Realm, it found many natural treasures and once rose to prominence. Its power dominated the area within a million miles around the island, and its influence was much greater than that of Tieshan Island.

However, Xuanyin Island was made by the Xuanwu Secret Realm, and it was also destroyed by the Xuanwu Secret Realm. As the Xuanwu Secret Realm was explored step by step, more and more restrictions were triggered, and it became increasingly difficult to find natural treasures.

It is said that once the Xuanwu Secret Realm was opened, Xuanyin Island wanted to expand the exploration area in order to find more opportunities. A large number of disciples, led by the Yuanying ancestor, entered the Xuanwu Secret Realm, resulting in heavy deaths. Even the Yuanying ancestor died in it, causing great damage to his vitality.

It was also at that time that the secret of the Xuanwu Secret Realm was leaked out and known to the outside world. Various forces came to forcefully want to get a piece of the pie. Xuanyin Island was seriously injured at that time and could not contend with multiple forces. In addition, the Xuanwu Secret Realm became more and more dangerous, and Xuanyin Island could not explore it independently with its strength.

Therefore, Xuanyin Island was forced to agree to share the Xuanwu Secret Realm with the outside world. Of course, it was not a free share, but through the sale of the Xuanwu Order. It made concessions so that all parties would no longer make things difficult for Xuanyin Island, and at the same time it could also use it to accumulate a large amount of wealth.

Originally, because the Xuanwu Secret Realm was too dangerous, many powerful people had died there, but the gains were not great. As a result, people's interest in the Xuanwu Secret Realm was gradually waning, and the price of the Xuanwu Order was falling again and again.

As a result, the last time the Xuanwu Secret Realm was opened, not only did it drop good things like the Xuanwu Blood Pearl, but it also dropped several other elixirs that were extinct in the outside world. As a result, as the time for the opening of the Xuanwu Secret Realm approaches, the Xuanwu Order has become more and more popular, and the price has been rising steadily.

Seeing this, Xuanyin Island has simply put the remaining Xuanwu Tokens on auction in various auction houses in recent years, and the highest bidder wins, instead of selling them directly. It is said that there will be four-sided tokens at the Iron Fan Island Jiazi auction this time, and they will only be auctioned at the Jindan and Yuanying ancestors level auctions.

The price will be very high, and even a Jindan cultivator without a strong family background will have a hard time bidding for it." Ren Xiaoyao stopped talking here, and subconsciously shrank back, looking at Xia Daoming cautiously.

"Are only Jindan and Yuanying ancestors qualified to participate in the auction of Jindan and Yuanying ancestors level?" Xia Daoming seemed not to understand the implication of Ren Xiaoyao's last sentence, and asked with a frown.

“That’s not the case. The reason why we set up an auction of this level is because we are worried that too many strangers will come in out of curiosity, so we set a threshold.

If cultivators below the Jindan stage want to participate in this level of auction, they must produce proof that they have wealth comparable to that of the Jindan ancestors. "Ren Xiaoyao explained.

"I see. That's a good thing, as it avoids too many people." Xia Daoming nodded in agreement.

Ren Xiaoyao's heart trembled when he saw this, a hint of shock flashed in his eyes, his lips moved, but he finally closed his mouth tactfully.

"By the way, how many years will it take for the Xuanwu Secret Realm to open again?"

"It'll take another ten years."

"Ten years. Not bad, just right." Xia Daoming touched his chin thoughtfully when he heard that, and soon a happy smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

He has now crossed the bottleneck that inexplicably appeared at the threshold of perfect foundation building. Logically speaking, his luck in forming the pill should not be so bad anymore.

In the next five or six years, you should be able to form a pill by taking the Four Symbols Pill.

He had two true dragon blood beads and two fire phoenix blood beads in his hands.

Any blood bead should be able to be used to refine four top-level elixirs, the Four Symbols Pills.

If one Four Symbols Pill doesn't work, at worst you can take two or even three. Xia Daoming just doesn't believe that a pill still can't be formed this way.

Ten years was just the right amount of time, giving him both relatively ample time to form his elixir and enough time to rush to the Xuanwu Secret Realm.

"You really live up to your reputation as a know-it-all. While we eat, tell me more about the auction and what you know about the various forces in Beizhenhai." Xia Daoming, who was in a good mood, quickly smiled and poured Ren Xiaoyao a glass of Longyin wine. Ren Xiaoyao was so flattered that he quickly stood up.

Next, Ren Xiaoyao was mainly talking and Xia Daoming was listening.

The more Xia Daoming listened, the more surprised he became, and he would ask questions from time to time.

In the sea area where the Iron Fan Island's influence radiates, Ren Xiaoyao knows all about the large and small forces, strange stories, powerful figures, etc.

Even if the Iron Fan Island's power radiates to the outer waters, he also knows something about the distribution and situation of the power.

However, with Ren Xiaoyao's cultivation level at the Qi Refining Stage, Xia Daoming really couldn't associate him with such a knowledgeable person.

In fact, when he first decided to hire him temporarily, he just wanted to learn a little bit about the news released by the Jiazi Auction through him. He never thought that he would hear so much inside information, and even a lot of other overseas information.

An hour later, Ren Xiaoyao was the only one left in the private room, with a table full of mostly untouched dishes and fine wines.

Ren Xiaoyao tightly grasped a storage ring in his hand. Looking at the table full of dishes and fine wines, he no longer had the greedy look as if he couldn't wait to eat them. Instead, he was filled with an indescribable complex emotion. Gradually, two lines of hot tears flowed slowly from his rat eyes.

"My tribesmen, I finally met a great nobleman. He not only rewarded me with elixirs that can repair my meridians and increase my power, but he also rewarded me with a top-quality foundation-building pill! One day, I will avenge you."

When Ren Xiaoyao muttered to himself, his pointed face with shifty eyebrows and eyes revealed an incomparable determination.

After a long time, Ren Xiaoyao suddenly wiped away the tears on his face, and then put the dishes and fine wines on the table into the storage ring one by one.

When he walked out of Qinglongzhuo, he turned into a shifty, slightly mean-looking villain.

When Ren Xiaoyao walked out of Qinglongzhuo, Xia Daoming, accompanied by a beautiful young woman, had already walked through a winding corridor that spanned a misty blue lake, and came to a cultivation cave built by the lake. The cave was elegantly decorated, full of spiritual energy, and surrounded by forbidden formations to prevent people from prying eyes.

Qinglongzhuo not only provides catering but also provides accommodation.

This cave for cultivation belongs to Qinglong Zhuo, so of course the price of accommodation is not cheap.

One day's expense is equivalent to a year's hard-earned income for a cultivator in the middle stage of Qi Refining.

But for Xia Daoming today, this is just small money.

Two days later, the Iron Fan Island Jiazi Auction was officially held.

The auction lasted for six days in total. There was almost no threshold for the first five days. The auction items were not necessarily valuable, but they were definitely rare and precious. For those who were in urgent need of the item but could not find it anywhere, they would be willing to pay several times the actual value of the item to get it.

There are even some rare items being auctioned whose uses and values ​​even the auctioneer cannot explain, so it all depends on the bidders' vision and knowledge.

But in general, the auction items that appeared in the first five days were all for ordinary Jindan cultivators and below.

It is extremely rare to find something that can tempt a powerful Jindan cultivator. As for something that can tempt even a Yuanying ancestor, it is even less likely to appear. Even if there is, it will be a very rare fish that slips through the net.

The high-value auction items that can really attract powerful Jindan cultivators and Yuanying ancestors are placed by the auctioneer at the high-level auction on the last day.

Although Xia Daoming's goal was to go to the auction on the last day, he had nothing else to do so he still wanted to go see the world and see if there was any chance to pick up a bargain.

After all, the others are cultivators, while he also has another identity as a body cultivator.

Some rare things may not be of much value to a cultivator, but they may be extremely useful to him.

As for Chai Chuanmo, Xia Daoming doesn't have to worry too much.

The chance of him appearing at an auction of this level is very small.

As for the woman in red, even if she showed up, with his ability to hide his identity and the fact that he was wearing a bamboo hat and mixed in with so many people, there was no way she would be able to recognize him.

Three days passed in a blink of an eye. The items auctioned at these three days were diverse and dazzling. They attracted many people to bid, even some Jindan cultivators, but none of them caught Xia Daoming's eye.

By the fourth day, Xia Daoming had gone from being very interested to being bored.

I had originally thought of meditating in the cave beside Qinglongzhuo Lake, but then I thought since I was already here, a day or two wouldn't be a big deal, so I might as well go and join in the fun.

In the end, Xia Daoming went anyway.

When Xia Daoming arrived at the auction, the huge circular auction hall was already full of people and the atmosphere was lively. Seven or eight early and middle Jindan cultivators were bidding one after another for a Red Fire Polygonum multiflorum.

The red fire Polygonum multiflorum grows a leaf every hundred years. When it grows ten leaves, it reaches the end of its life cycle and turns into flames and returns to the earth.

Xia Daoming once found two of them in the ancient ruins of Nieyan.

One is in the Lava Abyss, and the other is in the restricted area. Both are Nine-Leaf Red Fire Polygonum multiflorum, and they are only one leaf away from reaching the maximum age. It is said that they have a tonic effect on the Nascent Soul ancestors and are of extremely high value.

However, the red fire Polygonum multiflorum auctioned today only has five leaves, which is far less effective than Xia Daoming's nine leaves.

However, because this elixir is almost extinct in the outside world and hard to find, it still caused many Jindan monks to compete for the price.

Among them, two Jindan cultivators seemed determined to win, and in the end, only those two Jindan cultivators were left bidding.

"Eight hundred thousand!"

"Eight hundred and fifty thousand!"

"Nine hundred thousand!"

"one million!"

As the price climbed to one million spirit stones, the entire auction hall became excited.

"Oh my god, one million spirit stones! I have been trying to accumulate spirit stones since the day I entered the foundation building stage, preparing for the breakthrough to the core forming stage. But now that my life span is almost over, I am still a long way from one million spirit stones!"

"Without the support of the Golden Core Ancestor, the spiritual stones I earn are not enough for cultivation, so how can I accumulate millions of spiritual stones?"

"Yes, it is too difficult for us foundation-building cultivators to accumulate a million spirit stones! Fellow Daoist, don't you think so?"

Several late foundation building and perfect cultivators who were sitting next to Xia Daoming were discussing privately. Among them, an old man who looked like a businessman suddenly turned his head and asked Xia Daoming.

Xia Daoming, who was behind the hat, smiled disapprovingly and did not respond.

What are a million spirit stones?
I remember that when I had just successfully established my foundation, my appearance fee reached 1.5 million!

With just one casual battle, he could pocket tens or even hundreds of millions of spirit stones.

But this fellow did not even think about the fact that Luo Mu was the only daughter of an old ancestor in the middle stage of the Golden Core Realm, and also a cultivator who had completed the Foundation Establishment Stage. She had lost 1.5 million to him in a battle that year, and she had to sell everything she had to make up the difference of 800,000. She still owed him 700,000 spirit stones. For this matter, she worked hard outside every day, and only then did she slowly pay off her debt.

If this is the case for the only daughter of an old ancestor who has reached the middle stage of the Golden Core Realm and has completed the foundation building, then how difficult it would be for an ordinary foundation building cultivator to accumulate millions of spirit stones after deducting the needs of daily practice.

The old man who looked like a businessman saw that Xia Daoming did not respond, but did not get angry. Instead, he continued, "In fact, for the Golden Core Ancestor, a million spirit stones is not a small amount. I think the price of this five-leaf red fire Polygonum multiflorum is a bit inflated, don't you think?"

"It's indeed a bit inflated, but Red Fire Polygonum multiflorum is almost extinct in the outside world and is nowhere to be found. If you really need it urgently, there's nothing we can do about it, so we have to charge a higher price." Seeing that the old merchant acted very familiar, Xia Daoming had to respond with one sentence.

"That's true, but I think 1.2 million is the maximum." The old man stroked his goatee and said confidently.

Sure enough, not long after the old man finished speaking, the price of Red Fire Polygonum multiflorum climbed to 1.15 million, and an early Jindan cultivator who had seemed determined to get it finally chose to give up.

Obviously, one million and fifty thousand spirit stones is a considerable amount for an early Jindan cultivator.

After the Five-Leaf Red Fire Polygonum multiflorum, the auction seemed to have reached a small climax. The prices of the next ten or so items did not exceed 500,000 spirit stones, and the bidders were basically all foundation-building cultivators.

Although Xia Daoming had expected this, he still couldn't help feeling disappointed.

"It seems that today's trip is in vain again."

As soon as this thought came to Xia Daoming's mind, the mountain god's scepter hanging above the boundless sea of ​​blood began to tremble slightly, as if wanting to fly out of the boundless sea of ​​blood.
