18. Complete small goals at the auction
Although the previous items are of high quality, they are only for ordinary people.
These top powers did not think highly of them, but some of the small items, such as rare medicinal materials, did attract bids from interested alchemists like Wen Qianyi.
And with Mesu returning to the auction stage to act as the host, it means that the items in the second half will be able to push the auction to a climax. It is also the time for the major forces to bid against each other. Watching the bidding game between the two sides and the competition of momentum and financial strength is also a good show.
Watching Mei Su speaking politely on the stage, Lin Ran couldn't help but lean over to Wen Qianyi's ear and whispered, "Little rich woman, is the money you prepared enough?"
"If you don't compete for the last lot, it should be enough!"
In order to deal with unexpected situations, Wen Qianyi actually refined a lot of lower-grade pills. As long as she did not participate in the final competition, the capital in her hands would be more than enough.
While the two were discussing, Mesu at the auction table officially started the second half of the auction. He took a jade box from a maid who came up to the side and placed it on the display stand.
Under the heated gazes of the crowd, Mei Su opened the jade box. Inside the jade box was a piece of golden, crystal clear amber.
If you look at it from another angle, this amber looks like a pool of extremely viscous golden liquid. It seems to have spirituality and you can vaguely feel it flowing.
"Maybe many people don't know what this is. Please be patient and listen to me. I will answer your questions."
Mei Su saw many doubtful looks from the crowd and had obviously anticipated this situation. He pointed at the treasure in the jade box and said slowly, "This item is called Soul Jade Marrow. It is a very rare treasure. It can only be produced when a strong person in the Immortal Realm or even the Saint Realm dies and happens to be buried in a strange place that can absorb life force and soul. After being tempered by time, it can finally produce a palm-sized piece of Soul Jade Marrow.
Soul Jade can greatly expand the soul ocean and enhance soul power. We all know that soul power is extremely difficult to cultivate, and even the formula for cultivating soul power is almost non-existent now.
This treasure has been appraised by our Yaowang Sect and is believed to have been condensed after the death of a powerful person at a high level of the Immortal Realm.
If such treasures are used properly, they will surely be a great help to you in the Nirvana Realm. We all know that if a solid soul foundation is laid in the Nirvana Realm, it will be of great benefit to the future Dragon Transformation Realm and even the Immortal Realm..."
After hearing what Mesu said, many people in the auction hall couldn't help but exclaimed. They obviously didn't expect that the first treasure that came out in the second half would be so shocking.
It can only be condensed after the death of a strong person above the Immortal Realm. This is enough to increase the price of this soul jade marrow, not to mention that it still has real uses.
Lin Ran and Wen Qianyi couldn't help but look at each other, and they could see the surprise in each other's eyes. Obviously, they didn't expect that the stepping stone for the second half would be the Soul Jade Marrow, and it was highly praised by Mei Su. Some people on the field were already eager to try, and some bold ones even shouted out the starting price.
Wen Qianyi had a gentle smile on her face. She placed her slender fingers between Lin Ran's fingers and said softly, "We will definitely be able to win the auction!"
With Wen Qianyi's encouragement, Lin Ran also gained some confidence. At worst, he would just be the one who got in the way and killed people to steal treasures.
As for your own treasure? Come on, if you can get it for free, why let others make more money?
"Everyone, the price of this Soul Jade is not set in gold coins, but in spirit stones. The auction price of this treasure is set at 500,000 spirit stones, and each initial bid cannot be less than 10,000 spirit stones." Seeing the scene suddenly become noisy, Mei Su chuckled and said, "Everyone... start bidding!"
The 500,000 spirit stones mentioned here are not calculated based on the highest level, but the lowest level spirit stones. If calculated based on the unit of high-level spirit stones, one high-level spirit stone can be exchanged for one hundred low-level spirit stones, then the price of this Soul Jadeite would not be as high as tens of millions.
But even 500,000 low-level spirit stones suddenly made the scene quiet, because everyone was not a fool.
Your Yaowang Sect praises this thing so much, but the problem is how everyone uses it after taking it back, and what are the disadvantages. If we don’t want to waste such a treasure, in the end we will still have to ask your Yaowang Sect for help. In any case, you are the one who makes money.
As the saying goes, watching others make money is more painful than seeing yourself losing money. Even if this soul chalcedony is very good, people still remain on the sidelines without knowing how to use it and its dangers.
Of course, this rational silence was soon broken by the sound of bidding coming from behind.
"Fifty-one million spirit stones!"
The bidding voice came from Lin Ran. His position at the head of the corner also attracted the attention of many people for the first time since he entered the auction hall.
Lin Ran's voice seemed to affect everyone on the field at once, and many people began to bid one after another.
It is not known whether this was a scam or if they really wanted to buy it, but since Lin Ran started with 510,000 spirit stones, the price has been raised to one million spirit stones.
"I really @#%..."
Lin Ran cursed in his heart. He thought he could get it directly for 510,000, but these people jumped out one by one and shouted out prices. Anyway, Lin Ran would write down who shouted the price, one by one. After that, he would leave the auction house and ask these guys to compensate for their losses. He must let them experience the local customs of the Dangerous Triangle Area.
"1.2 million!"
Lin Ran directly raised the price to 200,000, which immediately caused exclamations in the auction hall. His corner seat became the focus of everyone's attention. Many people were curious about who this couple was.
Mei Su on the stage looked over there. He knew that this person was Mr. Cao, whose mysterious identity was reported by the sect that day. He couldn't help but think in his heart: "It seems that they may know how to use this soul jade marrow?!"
After Lin Ran shouted out the high price, no one followed up. First of all, there was no need to do so. There were so many items in the second half of the auction. If one insisted on asking for so much money for the first item, it would be a bad idea. Secondly, it was the classic traditional art of the Dangerous Triangle: "Any problem that can be solved by killing people is not a problem at all."
"One million and two hundred thousand, is there a higher price?" After shouting three times in a row, Mesu finally knocked down the auction hammer in his hand. With a "dong" sound, Mesu's loud voice also rang out: "Then this soul jade will be auctioned by this gentleman at the price of one million and two hundred thousand spirit stones!"
Seeing that Mei Su was finally willing to strike the auction hammer, Lin Ran breathed a sigh of relief. The goal of their trip to the auction was preliminarily achieved, and now they could look forward to the subsequent auctions with ease.
Lin Ran smiled and kneaded Wen Qianyi's little hands. Seeing that Wen Qianyi's hands were particularly red, he realized that he had subconsciously used a lot of strength when waiting for the auction hammer to hit. He couldn't help but look at Wen Qianyi and said, "Why didn't you make a sound?"
"Wouldn't it interrupt your train of thought if I spoke out? And I'm at least an eighth-star in the Nirvana Realm. Your little strength is only enough to tickle me!" Wen Qianyi said proudly.
Hey, girl, you are quite brave, aren’t you?
Lin Ran felt that if he had the chance in the future, he would let Wen Qianyi see his super manly strength and let her know that the uncle's battle-hardened spear was not in vain.
Next, there were many very rare and precious medicinal herbs and treasures. I don’t know if it was because of good luck or something, but there was actually an auction of a dragon demon core at the Dragon Transformation level.
There are so many things that the dragon demon core can do. One of the main ingredients of the Dragon Breaking Pill requires the dragon demon core.
Of course, it is not required to have pure dragon bloodline. As long as the strength reaches the Dragon Transformation level and there is a demon core with more dragon bloodline, it will be enough. Of course, the purer the better the effect will be.
The dragon demon core displayed on the display stand at this time is purple-red all over, and its shape is a bit like a heart.
According to Mei Su's introduction, this dragon demon core originated from an octagonal demon dragon at the Dragon Transformation level. It is also a well-known existence among the dragon clan and is of pure earth dragon bloodline.
Of course, what Lin Ran finds most hateful are the guys from Yaowang Sect. It makes sense for Boss Xin to want to kill them.
These guys were also very considerate and introduced the usage of the Dragon Clan's Demon Core, including the "Dragon-Breaking Pill". They also kept hinting that their Medicine King Sect would have a seventh-rank alchemist in the future, and that by then they could use the Demon Core to come to their Medicine King Sect for help in refining the Dragon-Breaking Pill.
It can be said that the atmosphere on the field reached a climax because of the Octagonal Demon Dragon's demon core. The bidding was heard one after another. The starting price of the Octagonal Demon Dragon's demon core was 1.5 million, but it was raised to 3 or 4 million in a blink of an eye, and it was still rising.
Eventually, it was taken over by a powerful force, the Moon Shadow Pavilion in the dangerous triangle area.
This is the killer force in the dangerous triangle area. They have many Nirvana Realm and Lingdan Realm killers under their command, but they lack a master in the Dragon Transformation Realm. Obviously, they want to use the demon core of the octagonal dragon and then ask the Medicine King Sect for help in refining a Dragon-Breaking Pill. Anyway, the Medicine King Sect will make money. It's really hateful.
Seeing this dragon demon core being taken away like this, Lin Ran couldn't help but sigh.
Wen Qianyi, who was standing next to her, was in a good mood. She smiled and said, "Well, there's no need to be depressed. We will definitely encounter something better than the Octagonal Demon Dragon Core."
"How can this be easy? The dragons are too far away from us. It's rare to happen to find one..."
Lin Ran couldn't help but sigh. He knew that the dragon clan was in Xinzhou, the Central Region, which was too far away from here. The later plot of the original novel seemed to involve that place as well.
If he calls Shangguan Mengqing, can his sword fairy sister send him a dragon demon core by SF Express? Even though it's a bit embarrassing, at most they will have that relationship in the future, so he just needs to work harder!
It’s all for life, there’s nothing shameful in improving your abilities!
Many rare medicinal herbs and treasures followed, and their quality was much higher than that in the first half. A volume of top-grade heavenly-level martial arts scriptures of mountains and seas even set a record for the first time in this auction, selling for tens of millions of spirit stones, which was equivalent to a lot of high-level spirit stones.
After Lin Ran paid attention to which powerful force it was, he started to record it in a small notebook. In the second half, he recorded many of the things he coveted and who got them, and prepared to use the traditional arts of the Dangerous Triangle to greet them later.
The main thing was that in the second half of Lin Ran’s auction, he gained nothing except a Soul Jadeite, and the prices of some items were ridiculously high.
If they hadn't sent back the treasures they had collected, they would have been able to compete, but the spirit stones they currently had were too few to bid for those treasures. Although elixirs could be exchanged for spirit stones, the demand for these things was not too urgent, so there was no need to waste them.
"Everyone, the item we are going to auction next is a little special..." After the auction of the Shanhai Jingwen, Xie Su's voice slowly rang out in the venue...
.....
19. Star Flame
Hearing what Mei Su said, everyone in the auction hall couldn't help but feel curious. Mei Su waved towards the side aisle, and several servants of the Medicine King Sect walked up to the auction stage with heavy steps. They were carrying very heavy things in their hands, and they covered them with white cloth.
After the items were placed on the table, several attendants quickly left the auction table. Under the curious gaze of the crowd, Mesu waved his hand and a strong wind blew the white cloth away, and the items under the white cloth appeared in front of everyone.
It was a stone slab about fifty or sixty inches in size, dark in color, but with many irregular white holes on it. The slab seemed to be glowing faintly, flickering rhythmically.
The presence of such a strange slab of stone made everyone in the auction house a little confused. The stone slab looked quite strange, and it seemed to contain some strange energy, but no one knew what it was used for.
"Everyone, please be patient. Since this stone slab can be put up for auction, I, an old man, will definitely tell you about the origin of this stone slab and the results of our investigation." Mei Su calmed the restless emotions in the venue.
"This stone tablet was discovered by the Xingyun Pavilion in an ancient ruin. After an in-depth investigation by our Yaowang Sect, we found that this stone tablet may be related to the Star Saint who appeared thousands of years ago!"
Mei Su's words were like a thunderbolt, causing a great uproar in the auction hall. What can be called a saint? Of course, only those who have surpassed the Immortal Realm and advanced to the nearly unattainable Saint Realm can be called a saint.
What is a saint? Only when the soul, body, and the Great Dao are perfected can one have a chance to enter this almost legendary realm.
And now there is such a treasure related to the saint in front of them, and it is very likely to be the saint's inheritance. How can people not feel excited?
The entire auction hall was in a frenzy, and the noisy sound almost blew the roof of the auction hall off.
When Mei Su saw the auction house that had been mobilized, the smile on his face became even brighter. His eyes occasionally swept to the VIP boxes below. He knew that only these guys, with their rich family background, could come up with something that would satisfy the Nebula Pavilion, and his Yaowang Sect could also get a share of the pie.
“Everyone, perhaps some people still don’t know much about the Star Saint, so let me explain in more detail. The Star Saint was famous throughout the continent for his Star Source Flame, which ranked fifth on the Sky Fire Ranking.
This sky fire is extremely powerful and can absorb the power of stars. As long as the stars are not destroyed, even if the body is destroyed, it can be reshaped. Moreover, the vast star power has many magical uses. Many people want to obtain this star source flame but have not found it yet. This stone slab may be able to find the whereabouts of the star source flame. "
Mei Su's additional explanation caused the price of the stone slab to skyrocket instantly. With the inheritance of the Saint Realm and the Star Source Flame ranked fifth on the Sky Fire List, the price of this stone slab may be skyrocketing. In other words, it is no longer something that can be estimated by ordinary numbers. It can be said to be priceless.
"senior…"
Wen Qianyi called out softly, and Lin Ran turned his head. Seeing Wen Qianyi's eyes shining, he knew what Qianyi was going to do. He smiled helplessly and said, "Let's see if we can get it at the auction. If not, I will risk my old bones to help you get it."
"Senior, it sounds nice, but please don't do this!"
Wen Qianyi's face was filled with a sweet smile as she leaned on Lin Ran's shoulder. Although she really wanted this opportunity to find the Star Source Flame, she would rather not have it if her senior was seriously injured because of it.
"Old Mei, stop talking nonsense and start shooting!"
A voice came from a box in the VIP area. This voice might be someone who had a very good relationship with Mei Su. Mei Su couldn't help but smile helplessly and said quickly, "An old friend is urging me, so I have no choice but to tell you how to auction this stone slab. Everyone knows that the price of this stone slab is hard to estimate. It can't be estimated by gold coins or spirit stones.
Therefore, the trading method for this stone slab is barter. If you are interested in bidding, you can go to the trading room next to the auction table and tell us your trading items. The Xingyun Pavilion will make the final selection."
Mei Su's words silenced many people who were interested in bidding, especially the big forces in the VIP seats. If it was gold coins and spiritual stones, they could just dig them up or rob them. Anyway, they had spiritual stone mines, gold mines, etc., and they would never be short of them.
But if you want to exchange it by barter, it will be difficult. If you want to exchange it for a stone slab blessed by both the Saint Realm and Heavenly Fire, you will definitely not be able to get it without some heavyweight treasures.
But for treasures of this level, even the big powers in the Dangerous Triangle would find it painful to trade them, and it doesn’t mean that I can get the Star Source Flame just by getting this stone slab.
We are not stupid. Why would you, Xingyun Pavilion, auction off such a good treasure? It means that you have not figured out the secret and do not know how to use it.
Especially since there is a mysterious item called the Wisdom Tree at the back, everyone is thinking about competing for that thing. The Wisdom Tree is a much bigger gimmick than your Star Source Flame, and the key is that I can use the Wisdom Tree as soon as I get it, but you can just buy it to see it.
The noisy atmosphere in the auction hall gradually cooled down, and Mei Su was also embarrassed, his eyes turned towards the Nebula Pavilion.
Seeing that Xingyun Pavilion Master Yue Rou glared back at him, Mei Su couldn't help cursing in his heart. He had suggested that Xingyun Pavilion use spirit stones to trade this thing, but in the end, it refused to do so even at death.
Now, if no one is willing to bid for it next, it will be unsold in a matter of minutes.
In the box where Tianli Academy was located, Elder Chen, the chief alchemist of Tianli Academy, heard the news about the Star Source Flame.
He was quite excited at first, but when he knew that this was actually a barter, he couldn't help but puff his beard and whispered, "These guys are really crazy. They dare to barter with such a guy. Who knows if he can be used to find the Star Source Flame? Whoever goes up to exchange for whom is stupid."
Dean Wenling, who was standing by, also said, "Maybe it was Xingyun Pavilion's request. After all, if you get a treasure like this, you definitely want to make a little more money."
"Hey, Mr. Chen, someone really went up to change!"
Lin Chong, who was watching the play, was surprised when he saw a man in a long robe actually walk into the trading room.
Several big men from Tianli Academy looked over at once, and Wen Ling couldn't help but exclaimed: "His aura is like being covered by a layer of fog, blocking my detection. This man is very mysterious!"
Everyone was shocked. Wen Ling was a powerful warrior who had been in the Dragon Transformation Realm for many years, but even he could not find out the other party's background. It seemed that there were indeed hidden dragons and crouching tigers in this auction.
This man stood up from the corner of the inner field and walked towards the trading room, which had attracted the attention of many people in the auction hall. They were all talking about it. The man came out of the trading room not long after he entered.
Perhaps because they saw the man in the robe go in, one or two more people went into the trading room one after another. Mei Su also got relevant information from the servants. The price offered by the man in the robe who entered at the beginning was the best two Nirvana Pills and one Gathering Spirit Pill among those people. Moreover, after appraisal, they were all excellent top-grade pills, and they were not from the Medicine King Sect.
"When did such a powerful alchemist appear in the Dangerous Triangle?"
Mei Su looked at that corner vaguely. The man in the robe who had just walked into the trading room was Mr. Cao who had auctioned the Soul Jadeite before.
Although he did not personally identify the quality of the pill, the appraiser in the trading room was also a senior alchemist in the Medicine King Sect, with the level of a fourth-level alchemist. Even he praised the quality of the pill, so it must be good.
"Let's see if I can meet Mr. Cao later..."
Mei Su was secretly planning in his mind. He thought that if he could attract such a powerful alchemist to their Yaowang Sect, the position of their Yaowang Sect in the dangerous triangle would definitely become more solid and consolidated. If he couldn't win him over, he would at least make friends with him.
Time passed minute by minute, and Mei Su was waiting for feedback from the Nebula Pavilion. Two Nirvana Pills and one Gathering Spirit Pill, although of top quality, were far more valuable than this useless stone slab.
Mei Su also learned a lot of information. The Nebula Pavilion had this stone slab a long time ago, and they didn't put in any effort. It was equivalent to picking it up. They haven't found anything after studying it for so long. They should be content to be able to exchange it for two Nirvana Pills and one Gathering Spirit Pill!
However, Xingyun Pavilion Master Yue Rou was still a little unwilling and thought about bargaining with someone. But in the end, after being persuaded by other people in the pavilion, she accepted this condition. They were afraid that if they continued to bargain, no one would be willing to exchange for this thing. Besides, couldn't they take it back after auctioning it off?
Finally, the stone slab was successfully auctioned off by Lin Ran. As for the terms of the transaction, Mei Su did not say anything, but many people present could see that it took a lot of money to come up with something that would satisfy the Nebula Pavilion. There would also be one less competitor for the mysterious item of the Tree of Wisdom.
When Wen Qianyi saw the auction hammer fall, she breathed a sigh of relief. She happily leaned close to Lin Ran's ear, exhaled hot air, and said, "Senior, you are awesome. How do you want me to reward you?"
"It's difficult for you to give me the reward I want in a place like this!" Lin Ran laughed. He didn't expect that he could buy the stone slab at the auction so easily. He was not worried at all that the stone slab would be useless in his hands. Comrade Fanhua in his mind knew a lot about the Star Source Flame, and with the addition of the knowledgeable Sword Fairy sister, wouldn't it be easy for him to deal with the stone slab?
Hearing Lin Ran's words, Wen Qianyi couldn't help but let her imagination run wild. She slapped Lin Ran in shame and anger, and said coquettishly, "Perverted senior, you think about these things all day long!"
