Chapter 201: People Become Auction Items

The treasure named "Dragon and Phoenix Double Rings Used by Shangguan Jinhong" was eventually sold at a low price due to insufficient evidence.

In the following moments, everyone present could feel the murderous intent hidden beneath Bat Master's demeanor.

But for them, as long as the murderous intent is not directed at themselves, there is nothing to worry about. They just need to watch the show from the sidelines.

"Next is today's seventh treasure, imported from Dongwulin, an excellent material for forging divine weapons. Its name is..."

"Transform into Jade Mysterious Crystal!!"

Following Ding Feng's revelation, several servants on the platform below worked together to move out an exquisite shelf.

On the shelf, there is a piece of bright yellow crystal.

A few rays of warm and soft sunlight shone in through the tiny holes on the side of the mountain, hitting the black crystal and refracting a brilliant and dazzling light.

"Xuan crystal?"

The strange yet familiar term soon sparked a heated discussion in the darkness.

"Could it be that the forging material is the same as the 'Heavenly Sword' and 'Dragon Slaying Saber' that the Sun Moon Sect is said to possess?"

When the treasure was brought out, the Bat Prince's voice on the stage became a little lighter.

"Although they are both called 'Xuan Jing', they are not exactly the same."

"In the East Martial Forest, black crystal is an extremely special material, and there are different grades of material. The one used in the Heavenly Sword and the Dragon Slaying Sabre is called 'Flying Immortal Black Crystal', which is only the lowest grade of black crystal."

"And the quality of this piece of 'Hua Yu Xuan Jing' is higher than that of 'Fei Xian Xuan Jing'."

"If we can find a first-class blacksmith to forge it into a weapon, it will definitely become a more powerful weapon than the Heavenly Sword and the Dragon Slaying Saber!"

All the guests cheered upon hearing this.

"It turns out there is more than one kind of black crystal. This really broadens my horizons."

"I didn't expect that Bat Island's business would even reach East Wulin..."

“I admire you so much!!”

In the stands, Lu Ping wiped his eyes again and again.

It's actually a black crystal? !

Exactly the same as in the game!

Lu Ping knew that Bat Master was not lying.

Xuan Crystal is indeed a rare forging material, and it is divided into different qualities and grades. Feixian Xuan Crystal is only the inferior kind, and Huayu Xuan Crystal is better than Feixian Xuan Crystal.

But what he didn't make clear was that above the Huayu Xuan Crystal, there are four other types of Xuan Crystal: Chensha Xuan Crystal, Guixu Xuan Crystal, Tianyi Xuan Crystal and Taiyi Xuan Crystal.

Without the latter information, the guests would subconsciously exaggerate the rarity of the Jade Mysterious Crystal in their minds.

"Then please start bidding!"

"Two hundred thousand taels!"

"Three hundred thousand taels!"

"Five hundred thousand taels!"

"..."

A piece of Feixian Xuanjing can be used to create weapons like Yitian Sword or Dragon Slaying Sword. So if you can use Huayu Xuanjing to forge weapons, who in the world can be your opponent?

Thinking of this, everyone's heart began to boil, and they bid frantically, raising the price of the Jade Black Crystal again and again, and finally even called for a high price of "one million taels".

Lu Ping was terrified and shocked by what he heard.

“These people are really rich…”

No, when I was playing the game to buy Xuanjing before, even if it was a one-time price, it would cost 120 million Kaiyuan Tongbao. What is this mere one million taels worth?

This piece of jade crystal was eventually bought for 1.5 million taels, becoming the most expensive item sold today.

After the mood at the scene had settled down a little, Ding Feng brought out the eighth item of goods.

"The eighth item also comes from the Eastern Martial Arts Forest, but it is not a treasure, but a martial arts book."

"The name of this martial arts book is "Shang Shui Bao Dian"!"

The Water Collection?

Lu Ping subconsciously looked up, and only breathed a sigh of relief after making sure that no big water ball was falling from above his head.

Others had never heard of this name, but Lu Ping knew it.

This "Shang Shui Bao Dian" was originally a martial art of the Fang family in Penglai, but was later stolen by the family servant Gong Ao. After mastering it, he ran to the Twelve Linked Docks, became the boss there, and acted tyrannically.

Since then, Gong Ao and his giant octopus have become the bosses that countless heroes in the martial arts world must fight every week.

"This 'Water Treasure Book' is very powerful. It can transform the water between heaven and earth for its own use. It is both offensive and defensive. It is not inferior to the Heavenly Water Magic Skill of Jellyfish Yin Ji!"

"It is said that after mastering the skill, the user can even create water clones to defend against enemies..."

Ding Feng kept talking about the power of the "Shang Shui Collection". His words undoubtedly aroused the interest of the audience, but... water clones?

This kind of martial arts has never been heard of in the Southern Martial Arts World.

People were reluctant to believe it, but given Bat Prince's credibility, no one questioned it in the end.

Lu Ping knew that the saying of water clones was true, but overall, the martial art of "Shang Shui Bao Dian" was not as magical as Ding Feng said.

The essence of "Shang Shui Bao Dian" is to control water, but users themselves cannot produce water.

Therefore, this martial art can only be brought to its full potential by borrowing the water resources between heaven and earth in places such as rivers, lakes, and seas.

If there is no water around and the power is forced to be used, it will first absorb water from the user. In this way, the user will be sucked dry in just a few moves.

This is also the reason why Gong Ao was able to lead the Twelve Linked Docks for many years, but was eventually defeated by Gongsun Ying with a slap.

These people were still somewhat interested in the unique skills of Dongwulin, and in the end this martial art was bought by someone for 700,000 taels.

"The Jade Crystal and the Water Treasure Book, two consecutive items are treasures from the East Martial Forest, but I don't know what the last two items are?"

"Could it be a rare treasure from Dongwulin as well?"

Just as everyone was eager to take a look at the next auction item, Mr. Bat spoke up. "The two items from the East Wulin are just used to test the existing market. If you are interested, there will be opportunities in the future. For now, we will focus on the South Wulin territory."

"This ninth auction item is not a martial art or a rare treasure, but a person!"

people?
"Could it be that she is a beauty who has been trained to be absolutely loyal?"

"Maybe you are a warrior who has been tamed to obey your orders? Or a wise man who can give you advice?"

Everyone is guessing and everyone is curious.

Only Lu Ping had a sullen face and said nothing.

He had a hunch that the person who was about to be auctioned might be one of Lin Pingzhi and Shangguan Haitang.

Soon, a dishevelled figure was brought up.

The man was disheveled, in a trance, his clothes were tattered, and his hands and feet were chained, making him unable to move freely.

The most important thing is that there is a violent and chaotic inner force surging in his body.

Even though he was several meters away, Lu Ping could tell that this was the aura that only came from practicing military skills.

Then the identity of the person below would be obvious.

"Sure enough, it's Lin Pingzhi."

Even though the two had only known each other for a short time, Lu Ping became angry when he saw his younger brother being treated like this. He rolled up his sleeves and was ready to jump in and make a scene.

But Duan Tianya stopped him with his hand: "Wait, we don't know where Haitang is yet!"

Yes, this time we came to Bat Island to find these two people, but now there is still one person missing. If we make a fuss like this, although we can save Lin Pingzhi, the auction will definitely be interrupted.

Having alerted the enemy, Bat Master took advantage of the terrain and escaped as quickly as possible, and there was no telling where Shangguan Haitang would be taken.

After figuring this out, Lu Ping took a few deep breaths and calmed himself down.

In the darkness, a new round of auctions has begun.

"Who is this person? Is he worthy of being brought here for auction?"

"Don't underestimate him, everyone. He is the newcomer who made a lot of noise in the martial arts world some time ago, Lin Pingzhi."

As soon as the name "Lin Pingzhi" came out, there were gasps in the darkness.

Bat Prince was very satisfied with this reaction, and there was a hint of lightness in his voice.

"It seems that you have all heard of this name. The reason why Shangguan Jinhong's Money Gang was destroyed and Gongsun Wulong died tragically in the Seven Heroes Town can be said to be because of the military classics behind him."

One person asked, "I heard that he was taken away by the Ten Evils. How come he has fallen into the hands of the young master now?"

"It was just a deal with the Ten Evils."

"Oh? I'm very curious, what kind of content could make the Ten Evils willing to hand over such an important person?"

"I'm sorry, but any transaction between me and any of my customers is never made public."

Mr. Bat explained the reason and said, "As you can see, Lin Pingzhi has damaged his brain due to his obsession with evil. He has now become insane and in a state of disability."

"But no matter what, he has clues to the military manual. How much it is worth depends on your judgment."

After this was said, all the guests started discussing.

"Since he's a madman, it should be hard to get the secret manual out of him, right? I don't think this guy is worth much."

"You can't say that! There are ways to communicate with normal people in this world, and there are naturally ways to communicate with lunatics and fools. As long as you use it properly, you may be able to get something out of him..."

"But is the Military Manual of Armor and Martial Arts really that powerful? Is it worth spending a lot of money, time and energy to plan?"

Just then, a somewhat dry voice came from the darkness.

"Actually... I have received a rumor that the 'Slap Lake' in Qixia Town was not created by an earthquake, but was created by Lu Ping's palm strike!"

This remark immediately caused everyone to laugh.

"Your Excellency means that Lu Ping can knock down a mountain with one palm?!"

"Hahahaha... How could there be such an outrageous martial art in this world? Stop joking, brother!"

"Tsk, believe it or not!"

The dry voice sneered: "To be honest, I have a friend who also went to Qixia Town to join in the fun."

"According to him, the situation at that time was not as described in the Public Pavilion and Jianghu Monthly. There were not only 300 gangsters in Qixia Town, but a full 3,000!"

"Originally, these people were ready to besiege Qixia Town and snatch the weapons, armor and martial arts classics, but Lu Ping suddenly sent a letter, saying that they had half an hour to escape."

"Not many people took his advice to heart at the time, and only a very few chose to retreat. My friend also wisely chose to leave."

“As a result, half an hour later, when my friend just arrived at the nearby river mouth, he saw a huge palm force descending from Cuiwei Mountain, directly shattering the entire mountain.”

"This palm penetrated the underground water veins, and the river water flowed back into it, forming the current 'palm lake'."

"If you don't believe it, you can go and see it for yourself when you get back."

"If it was just an earthquake, how could it be such a coincidence that such a palm print was created?"

This person described the whole process in an orderly and logical manner.

In the darkness, everyone who heard it was terrified.

After a long time, a voice sounded.

"The friend you are talking about...could it be you?"

"Nonsense!"

The dry voice suddenly shouted: "My friend was so scared because of this that he has locked himself up in his house and dare not come out!"

"How could he be me?!"

I don't know who it was, but suddenly in the darkness, there was a 'puchi' sound and laughter.

Everyone started chuckling when they saw this, and the laughter spread from one person to another, gradually growing louder until it turned into a roar of laughter.

The dry sound became silent at this moment, as if it had never appeared.
