Chapter 343 Face
The monks present were enjoying themselves with wine and food, and then it was time for the part that Wei Zhong was most looking forward to, a large-scale auction held by the Xuanxiao Sect.
Because Hedao is involved in this auction, the scale is much larger than the last time Wei Zhong participated.
The auction was of a high level, and those with low cultivation, including many irrelevant personnel, were all forced to leave.
The auction started on the spot.
It was also an old acquaintance of Wei Zhong, Moro, who was hosting the event.
The first thing that came out was a fifth-turn Dingyuan Pill that was used to assist the Jindan cultivators in advancing to the Lianxu realm.
No matter whether they are cultivators at the stage of Spiritual Transformation or those at the stage of Void Refinement, they all compete to bid for the sake of the power behind them or their descendants.
Le Lin and Wei Yuesheng were silent for a moment. Both of them had clear goals and would never waste time on such things.
Lin Hui and Chen Yuan both made high bids.
"Fellow Daoist Lin, what is this?"
"Haha, I just happened to accept a good disciple a few days ago. I'll let you Taoist friends meet him when there's a chance in the future."
The Corpse King Palace has always been a single-line inheritance, but Lin Hui has actually chosen a disciple, and the latter must be a very talented person.
"Then I must prepare the gifts!"
After a congratulation, three gong sounds were heard:
"Congratulations to this fellow Taoist for winning a fifth-level Dingyuan Pill at the price of 1,800 high-grade spirit stones."
Lin Hui happily delivered the spiritual stones.
Chen Yuan shook his head slightly. The price was still a bit high for him.
It is unlikely that such a large auction would only have this one Fifth Revolution Dingyuan Pill for auction. There will be other opportunities later.
There are many people who share the same idea as him, and they all choose to stop bidding at this time.
"Fellow Daoist Wu Se, don't you want to join in the fun?"
Wei Zhong shook his head slowly:
"There are only some unpromising juniors in the sect, and there is still no one who can use this precious pill."
To explain, Moreau has already unveiled the second lot:
"A sixth-rank, mid-grade magic sword, the Nine Waves and Clouds Sword, is inspired by the spirit of the immortals and can stack nine layers of sword power, each layer is stronger than the last. When the nine layers are stacked, their power is comparable to a strike from a top-grade magic sword.
"The minimum price is 15 top-grade spirit stones, and each increase in price must not be less than one top-grade spirit stone."
"Fifteen top-grade spirit stones!"
"Sixteen..."
The properties of this sword are very suitable for Wei Zhong. During hundreds of years in the human world, Wei Zhong practiced "Spring and Autumn Water Refining Art" and his water skills became superb. Even after reaching the spiritual world, he never abandoned them.
With this sword in hand, Wei Zhong's strength will be much stronger.
"Why is Fellow Daoist Wu Se interested in this magic sword?"
Wei Zhong chuckled and heard the quote in his ear:
"Twenty-five top-grade spirit stones!"
"I do like it, but the price is beyond my budget."
"Twenty-seven top-grade spirit stones!"
"clang!"
"Twenty-seven top-grade spirit stones once, twenty-seven top-grade spirit stones twice, ... three times. Congratulations to this fellow Taoist for winning the sixth-rank, middle-grade magic sword, the Nine Waves and Clouds Sword."
As the host, Moro has already decided who will own this magic sword.
"But the price of this magic sword is really high. An ordinary mid-grade magic sword costs at least twelve top-grade spirit stones, and rarely more than thirty. The Nine Waves and Clouds Sword actually costs twenty-seven. It is really rare," Le Lin sighed.
Chen Yuan explained:
"The man who won the sword seems to be an old acquaintance of my Chen family. He is from the Jing family, who specializes in the Five Elements Water Method. His name is Jing Yanming, and he is at the middle stage of the Void Refining Realm. He is a young man who has just been promoted recently. He is only over 4,000 years old now, so he has plenty of time to impact the late stage of the Void Refining Realm."
Hearing this, Le Lin and Wei Yuesheng could not hide the loneliness in their eyes.
Both of them were about to encounter their first minor heavenly tribulation, but they were still unable to overcome this stage from the early to the middle stage of the Refining Void Realm.
Although he is younger, he has already started to charge towards the late stage of refining emptiness.
How to describe the difference?
"It turns out that he is expected to be in the late stage of Refining Void and is a fellow Daoist of He Dao. No wonder he is willing to spend so many spirit stones to buy such a magic sword."
Generally speaking, the compatibility of the attributes of a magic sword and a cultivator is more important than the grade of the magic sword, at least this is true for low-grade and medium-grade magic swords.
The cost of so many spirit stones is worth it for the latter.
"The combined magic swords are the Five Elements Glass Dragon Sword, the Gold Glass Sword, the Blue Glass Sword, the Zhu Glass Sword, the Red Glass Sword, and the Dust Glass Sword. Each magic sword is of the lower grade of the sixth rank, but when combined, it is the middle grade of the sixth rank, and the best among the middle grades. It is only one step away from the upper grade..."
Wei Zhong was stunned when he heard this. Wasn’t this the Chili Sword that was auctioned for only three hundred high-grade spirit stones last time?
The magic sword used last time was so crudely made that it might be an exaggeration to call it a toy for the gods to use.
But this magic sword seems to be the complete form of the latter. Not only is the sword body exquisite, but the spiritual patterns on it are also gorgeous, like a swimming fiery red glass dragon.
What amazed Wei Zhong even more was that he didn't know where the Xuanxiao Sect found the glass dragon materials from, but they actually gathered all the five elements and refined a set of five-element magic swords.
Any cultivator with a discerning eye could tell that this set of magic swords was of extraordinary quality, and that it was probably worth a sky-high price.
The auction had just begun, and a series of heavyweight items were auctioned, shocking many Void-Refining cultivators.
There was only one seat, where the Longteng Sect was. The sixth-rank dragon shrank in size and coiled beside the leader of the Longteng Sect, looking gloomy. He wanted to say something, but since He Dao was present, he didn't dare to.
I could only lower my brows and curse in my heart.
"Brother Wu, there are some tricks in your sect. They were able to use the five red glass dragons to refine this kind of matching magic sword," the person who spoke was the Hedao master present, Feng Yusheng from Fengxi Society.
The three great masters of the Dao sat cross-legged in the sky, with the starry sky flickering around them, as if they were in the universe.
Looking down, there are three peaks standing, with a hexagonal spirit plate in the middle, and cultivators from all around densely spread out like ants.
Master Xuanxiao Wu Renchu shook his head slightly:
"The methods of the weapon refiners in our sect are crude. Brother Feng, please forgive me for making a fool of myself. If Feng Xi could get such a good thing, it would surely be much more powerful than what my Xuan Xiao Sect could use."
Feng Yusheng smiled but said nothing when he heard this. Wu Renchu was just flattering him and it couldn't be serious. If he responded to the conversation, it would be impolite.
On the other hand, Xu Xueying, as a female cultivator, didn't care much.
The purple robe floats slightly, and the veil flutters:
"Why don't you give this remains of the Lilong to my Wanhua Sect?
"I've heard that dragons are lustful. Maybe I can make some secret medicine with the help of these dragon bodies. Then I can make my two brothers happy."
The secret medicine the other party mentioned is naturally not a real thing, but Wu Renchu and Feng Yusheng would not dare to accept such a thing from the Wanhua Sect?
If I really accept it, I'm afraid all my skills will be sucked away.
The two seemed to have some understanding of Xu Xueying's personality.
Master Xuanxiao Wu Renchu simply said:
"Friend Xu is joking."
Then he looked down at the auction venue below.
The auction of this set of magic swords has officially begun.
"The starting price of the Five Elements Glass Dragon Sword is twenty top-grade spirit stones. The single bid cannot exceed one top-grade spirit stone."
"Twenty pieces..."
"Twenty-one..."
As the sound of the gong rang out, all the Void Refining cultivators present began to bid frantically.
"The Xuanxiao Sect really invested a lot of money," Chen Yuan sighed, with a burning look in his eyes.
Even this cultivator in the late stage of the Refining Void Realm had some ideas about this set of magic swords.
"A complete set of magic swords is indeed rare."
Wei Zhong is no longer the newbie who just ascended to heaven. Now he has a deep understanding of the methods of refining weapons in the spiritual world.
A set of magic swords, especially a set of magic swords of level 6 or above, are all top-quality. They have many more advantages than a single magic weapon.
The first is that it puts little burden on the cultivator's mind. A cultivator of the Void Refining Realm only needs to devote a small amount of his mind to drive the five magic swords as if they were his arms.
You can focus more on dealing with the battle situation.
It is much easier than controlling five magic swords separately to achieve the same effect.
The second is that these five magic swords are linked together, making them more suitable for performing some sword formations, especially since these are five matching magic swords with different attributes.
If one has the right sword formation technique, the power will be extraordinary, and it is not an exaggeration to be able to fight on equal terms with a cultivator in the late stage of the Refinement Realm.
The third is the unique advantage of this set of Five Elements Red Glass Sword, which belongs to the five elements.
Wei Zhong practiced the Five Elements method, and this set of magic swords was very suitable for Wei Zhong to use.
However, as he heard the prices rising higher and higher, Wei Zhong gradually became hesitant.
"Twenty-eight top-grade spirit stones!"
"Twenty-nine..."
Wei Zhong gritted his teeth, stood up and called out the price:
"Thirty top-grade spirit stones."
In an instant, this voice was drowned out by the bidding of others:
"Thirty-one..."
Wei Zhong then sat down and chose to give up.
"Don't be impulsive, don't be impulsive. We are under the watchful eyes of the Hedao. Don't show your face too much, or you will be noticed by the mighty Hedao."
He Dao is too powerful, so powerful that Wei Zhong believes that even with the [Dao Fa of Time] he may not be able to deal with it.
'When my strength increases and my weapon-refining skills improve in the future, what will this Five Elements Glass Dragon Sword mean to me?
"I have the demon world at my back, and there are countless dragon monsters in it. Not to mention the Glass Dragon Sword, I have a chance to make even the Five Elements True Dragon Sword. There is no rush at all."
Wei Zhong took a deep breath and managed to calm himself down.
"Fellow Daoist Wu Se, you don't have enough spirit stones. I have some extra and can lend them to you."
Lin Hui saw Wei Zhong's expression and felt very kind.
Wei Zhong shook his head slightly and refused with a smile:
"Thank you for your kindness, Brother Lin. I can still afford this amount of spirit stones, but I feel it's not worth it."
"Yeah, it's not worth it!"
After hearing this, Le Lin said in a daze.
……
"Thirty-six top-grade spirit stones!"
This price has already exceeded the price of a regular sixth-grade mid-level magic sword, and is almost the same as a regular sixth-grade high-quality magic sword.
"Thirty-seven top-grade spirit stones. I am Song Shao, a true disciple of the Five Elements Immortal Sect. Please give me some face!"
"Five Elements Immortal Sect?"
Wei Zhong looked up and saw a man standing on the top of the mountain. He clasped his hands together, his face was serious, and the colorful token on his waist was flashing, very dazzling.
"It's actually the Five Elements Immortal Sect. Are disciples of such a big sect willing to come to this remote place?"
"What nonsense are you talking about? Not everyone in the Five Elements Immortal Sect has attained Mahayana or Dao. There are always disciples at a lower level.
"But this person has really brought down the reputation of the Mahayana Immortal Sect by using his status to threaten us at this auction."
Many monks were discussing the matter at the auction; some were amazed, some were sarcastic, and some were completely unrelated.
But the whispering also made the Immortal Sect disciple named Song Shao blush slightly.
"Hey, Junior Brother Song, what are you doing? This is not how you use your status as a leader. Sit down quickly..."
The persuader was none other than Wei Zhong's old acquaintance Yang Bao, who pulled Song Shao's robe and kept talking.
The usually bustling auction venue seemed a little deserted because of the latter's self-introduction of his identity, and no one made another bid for a long time.
"Haha, this brat from the Five Elements Immortal Sect actually dared to mess up Brother Wu's business. Should I help Brother Wu deal with it?"
"Hmph, a young man of the First Refinement Realm, I can do it myself."
Say it,
Wei Zhong suddenly heard a muffled groan coming from the "starry sky" high above.
Song Shao was seen bleeding from all seven orifices, and his whole body was frozen on the spot as if he had been struck by lightning.
"What a great prestige! If my peers were here, I would still give them some respect. But you, a little young man, dare to use the name of the Five Elements Immortal Sect to suppress me?"
As he was talking, the stars in the sky changed, and a heavy pressure spread in the auction venue, as if some powerful spiritual method was being nurtured there.
Yang Bao was horrified when he saw this, and quickly stood up, raised his hand, clenched his fist, and looked up into the sky:
"Senior Wu, please calm down. I am ignorant of etiquette and have offended you. Please show some mercy. I will discipline you strictly when I get home.
"Please give me a chance..."
As Yang Bao asked for help, the changes in the starry sky stopped and slowly returned to its original state.
“Huh, so it’s a junior from the Yang family.
"For the sake of Fellow Daoist Yang, I will give you this opportunity. Spare this young man's life.
"But if it happens again, don't blame me for being ruthless."
As soon as the words were spoken, the dull pressure dissipated.
Yang Bao ignored the sweat on his forehead and thanked him quickly:
"Thank you, Senior Wu. Thank you, Senior Wu."
He knelt down while speaking, pulled Song Shao's robe, and wanted the latter to kneel down with him.
Unexpectedly, with this slight pull, the latter's body fell to the ground with a bang, his limbs were stiff and his face showed no reaction.
"Brother!"
"Junior brother!"
The accompanying disciples of the Five Elements Immortal Sect exclaimed in surprise.
Yang Bao found that the latter was still alive, and sighed and said:
"Don't worry, Senior Wu knew how to strike with restraint. He is only seriously injured, but not fatal."
A young nun raised her head:
"Brother Yang, I am from the Five Elements Immortal Sect..."
"Is the Five Elements Immortal Sect so shameless?"
Wei Zhong observed the changes on the scene and couldn't help but speak.
Lin Hui smiled and replied:
“Face, the Five Elements Immortal Sect naturally has face, but what does this face have to do with him, Song Shao?
"As a Mahayana sect, the Five Elements Immortal Sect has at least 800 disciples of the Refining Void True Transmission, if not 1,000. What does a mere Song Shao count for?"
Wei Zhong heard this:
"So many?"
Chen Yuan explained:
"What Fellow Daoist Lin said might be too little. As one of the few Mahayana sects in this world that has the inheritance of the immortal world, the number of Lianxu Zhenchuan can only be more, not less.
"Every few decades, the Five Elements Immortal Sect would select disciples from its own territory, and then choose the best ones to become true disciples.
"Considering the long life span of a Void Refining cultivator, the number of eight hundred is far from enough to summarize it.
"This Song Shao is only in the early stage of the Void Refining Stage, and is just an ordinary member of the group."
