Immortality begins with becoming a master weapon refiner

Chapter 92 Tongbao Auction (Part Two)
Clearly, his dissatisfaction with his two junior female classmates had reached its peak.

Five spirit stones to do someone a favor.

This is too cheap; even Li Qiufeng wouldn't be interested in it.

Yue Ming noticed the atmosphere was a bit awkward and quickly tried to smooth things over.

"Junior sister is lively and adorable. If the two brothers don't want her, then let's give her to junior sister."

"I'll give my share to Junior Sister Ruyue."

"Then I'll give mine to Junior Sister Ru Shuang."

And so, it finally fits.

Ignoring the two smiling women, the female auctioneer, dressed in a gorgeous dress, had already taken the stage.

She wore a bright red, flowing dress and a golden crown with dangling ornaments, exuding both elegance and grace, a beauty that stirred the blood.

After the opening remarks, we got straight to the main event.

"Ladies and gentlemen, this is a secret divine cultivation technique called the Ice Phoenix Divine Transformation Diagram, which came from the Seven Sacred Palaces of the Arctic in the land of eternal cold."

"This technique has eight levels and is a seventh-grade spirit-refining technique."

"No need to worry about the aftermath; it can be used as a legacy for families and sects."

Starting bid: 300 spirit stones.

"350."

"400."

"600!"

"..."

The scene was extremely lively, after all, it was a seventh-grade cultivation technique! In the Cangwu cultivation world, no matter what kind of thing it was, once the grade reached the seventh grade, its value would increase tenfold or even a hundredfold.

Moreover, it was a secret teaching of the Refining Spirit Path, which tempted Gu Qing, but unfortunately he didn't have the money.

The final transaction price for the Ice Phoenix Transformation Divine Painting was 1800 spirit stones.

It was bought by the Bai family of Cangshan.

"The second item for auction is the [Ice and Fire Dragon Heart Fruit], a high-grade seventh-rank spiritual medicine. Starting bid: 300 spirit stones."

These spiritual herbs and fruits, unless they have rare effects and are scarce, are difficult to sell for a good price. They are commonly cultivated by major sects.

The more basic ones are even more oversaturated.

Among seventh-grade spiritual materials, the Ice-Fire Dragon Heart Fruit is considered top-tier.

The final transaction price was 688 spirit stones, and it was bought by the Gongsun family of Yanbo Lake.

"The third item, the Spirit Ascension and Aperture Opening Pill, is something that fellow cultivators at the Hundred Apertures Gathering Spirit Realm have likely heard of. This pill is an eighth-grade, top-tier elixir."

"Each one can open a mind. There are twelve bottles in total, with a total of 144 pills. They are sold by Medicine King Valley. Almost all the mind-opening pills of the past ten years are here."

“Sold in sets of three, divided into four sets.”

"Starting bid for the first group: 50 spirit stones."

Gu Qing was startled. This was one of the things he wanted, but it was too expensive. His savings could only cover the starting price.

Simply outrageous.

But the purchasing power of spirit stones was once again demonstrated.

Three bottles contain 36 pills, totaling 50 spirit stones, averaging 1.3 spirit stones per pill. It seems only slightly more expensive than the Azure Sea Pill, but this is just the starting price.

The final transaction price was 128 spirit stones, and the seller was Yue Ming.

The way Li Qiufeng and the other two looked at this wealthy fellow changed.

This wasn't the first time Gu Qing had heard the name Medicine King Valley.

It is quite famous in the Southern Yue Kingdom. The Spirit Ascension and Aperture Opening Pill is one of the unique skills of Medicine King Valley, making it the most powerful alchemy force under Baiyue Mountain.

Zhang Yuan's alchemy skills were inherited from Medicine King Valley.

The subsequent auction items became more ordinary, but they were still rare treasures not commonly seen elsewhere.

When buying things at an auction, be prepared to pay a premium.

An hour later.

The second treasure that Gu Qing had her eye on finally made its appearance.

"Item number 352, a secret technique of temporarily boosting strength of unknown origin, called [Dragon and Snake Transformation], is ranked at the highest level of the eighth grade. It can temporarily raise a cultivator's strength by one realm and last for half an hour."

"After the duration of the secret technique ends, it will cause physical weakness and depletion of true energy, lasting for six hours."

"But there are no other side effects."

Starting bid: 20 spirit stones.

The Dragon-Snake Transformation is a secret technique for explosive power.

Gu Qing valued not only its ability to enhance strength, but also its difference from other secret techniques in the conventional sense. It had two states: dragon and snake.

The so-called transformation from dragon to snake means that when needed, it can transform into a real dragon and soar through the clouds for thousands of miles.

It can also transform into a snake, hide in the forest, and wait for the right time to strike.

This aligns perfectly with Gu Qing's philosophy of life, and he immediately took a liking to this secret method.

Of course, the idea of ​​transforming into a dragon or a snake is an exaggeration.

There is a difference between the concept and the actual effect. This is for reference only. Please refer to the actual product for the best understanding.

After the bid was placed.

The others were all surprised, not expecting Gu Qing to have such financial resources. Li Qiufeng even tried to persuade him.

“Junior Brother Gu, the Scripture Pavilion of the mountain gate contains countless secret techniques. For us, it is more worthwhile to exchange them with contribution points.”

"I know."

Gu Qing nodded in agreement and then continued bidding.

Everyone: "..."

Persistence pays off; the Dragon and Snake Transformation was not a popular item at auction, and was even quite unpopular.

Gu Qing got his wish and bought it for 28 spirit stones, leaving him with 23 spirit stones.

He was different from others; what he valued was the philosophy of the secret arts.

In the future, by using the Longevity Evolution Technique, he will obtain what he desires most, and may even integrate it into the Flaming Dragon True Technique, existing as a secret technique attached to the technique.

28 spirit stones are not considered expensive.

In the subsequent auction, Gu Qing acquired another spiritual material.

【Yin Fire Liquid】

This is something prepared for the Earth Yin Willow. It can accelerate the process of cultivating innate artifacts using the evil alchemy method. The sooner this type of artifact can be developed, the better.

At this point, he only had 2 spirit stones left.

To completely cease hostilities.

When the Wonderful Method Pill appeared, the entire venue erupted in excitement, selling for a high price of 3888 spirit stones. After all, this meant a seventh-grade great cultivator, so any price increase was normal.

After the auction, the items were transferred.

It's almost time to go back.

As for the idea of ​​robbing cultivators and obstructing the path, that's pure nonsense, unless it's an enemy who has been secretly investigating you for a long time and is preparing to take action when the opportunity arises.

Otherwise, the probability of accidentally blocking someone on a whim is almost zero.

This is the number one immortal city in Nan Yue. There are no fewer than ten seventh-grade cultivators in the city, so there is absolutely no need to worry about safety. Otherwise, it would not have developed to the point it is today.

One of the prerequisites for prosperity and flourishing is security and stability.

It is the foundation upon which Nanli City stands in the world.

If any fool dares to make a move, no matter who it is, they will not escape the fate of having their soul extracted and their clan exterminated.

The social atmosphere in South Vietnam was quite good.

South of the city.

Everyone was eager to return home, and even though Yue Ming was reluctant to part with them, he only kept them entertained for two more days before flying towards Baiyue Mountain.

This mission was very fruitful.

More than half a month later.

The gate to Baiyue Mountain is still faintly visible.

Li Qiufeng said, "As agreed, I will submit the task, and someone will deliver the reward to you afterwards."

"Thank you for your help, Senior Brother Li."

"Thank you, Senior Brother Li."

A person's personality and way of dealing with people can be seen from their answers.

Li Qiufeng was destined to be a busybody, so she silently went to handle miscellaneous tasks.

Gu Qing didn't want to go to the Refining Hall to see Elder Gonglu. That old guy was no decent person, so it was best to avoid him.

So, after saying goodbye, they headed towards Mount Huosang.

Because of the opportunity he had at the Jiuquan Conference, he needed to study the Devouring Divine Power, grasp that feeling, and thoroughly learn this divine power.

On the other hand, his cultivation progressed rapidly.

The perfect state of having a vast ocean of true essence is not far off; it could be as short as a few months or as long as a year. It is a good time to go into seclusion and break through.
