C18 Auction 3

"Alright, it's just a small matter. There's no need to panic like this! Now! What heaven and earth treasures do you have to tell me? " Li Ming looked at the terrified female cultivator and laughed.

"Yes, Senior. Many thanks to senior for not caring about this little girl's mistakes in her words! This is what happened! A year ago, my father and I found a Scarlet Fruit Tree in a swamp hundreds of kilometers east of Elemental Rock City. On it were two Scarlet Fruits. At that time, my father wanted to pluck the Scarlet Fruit, but just as my father was about to get his hands on it, a huge crocodile suddenly jumped out and slammed into my father's chest. Fortunately, my father saw that the situation wasn't good. He dragged my heavily injured body and immediately left that place with me. And that crocodile doesn't seem to want to leave that place. Otherwise, we wouldn't be able to leave that place. " At this time, the female cultivator spoke to Li Ming with lingering fear in her heart.

"Oh? Then how can you be so sure that the two Scarlet Fruits are still there? You must know that a year has already passed, and many things can happen in this year. " After hearing what the female cultivator said, Li Ming asked.

Hearing Li Ming's question, the female cultivator immediately replied: "At that time, my father was a mid stage Foundation Establishment cultivator, and he also possessed a second grade armor. With that kind of strength, he was actually heavily injured. Besides, that place was pretty secretive, so ordinary people would definitely not find those two Scarlet Fruits! Thus, I am extremely sure that the two Scarlet Fruits are still there! "

"Since your father received the news due to his heavy injuries, would your father agree to you telling this news to others?"

"Senior, you might not know this, but after my father and I left that place, we returned to the nearest city, Sui City. But because the news of my father's serious injuries was found out by my father's enemies, they chased after me to kill him. In order to protect me, my father was outnumbered and was killed by them. " When he talked about this, the female cultivator in front of Li Ming spoke in a sad voice.

"The dead have passed away. My condolences!"

"Thank you for your guidance, senior!"

"In that case, would you take me to that place?" Don't be in such a hurry to refuse me, if you are willing to come to Elegant People's Residence in three days, I will give you rich rewards. If you accept this storage bag, then treat it as the deposit for you taking me there; "How is it, is it okay?"

"Senior, aren't you afraid that I will pick up your storage bag and leave the Elemental Rock City?" After hearing Li Ming's words, the female cultivator felt that this senior was not worried about her taking her things and left, so she asked curiously.

"Oh? This! I would have forgotten if you didn't say. " Then, Li Ming struck the female cultivator right in front of her with monoyang finger and said: "This time, I am not worried that you will run away after taking my storage bag! With this finger force, even if you run out of Elemental Rock City, I will be able to find you using this finger force's guidance. "

Hearing Li Ming's words, the female cultivator felt like dying. If she did not remind Li Ming, he was afraid that she would run away with the storage bag. Now that Li Ming had heard her words, a finger force struck his body. Although he did not know if it was true or not, she definitely did not dare to run now. If it was a fake, it was fine. But if it was real, he wouldn't even know how he died! Just at this time, she heard Li Ming say: "After talking for so long, I still don't know your name, should you tell me your name?"

"Yes, senior. My name is Zhuge and my name is Yun." Although he was regretful, Zhuge Yun still said gently.

"Good name. Remember to come to Elegant People's Residence to find me three days later. Remember my name, Li Li. " After that, Li Ming handed the storage bag over to Zhuge Yun and turned to leave the exchange.

Now that Li Ming had obtained accurate information on the Scarlet Fruit, as long as he waited for the auction to start, there was no need to do anything else!

At this time, at the branch sect of Fine Stone Sect, a Spirit Cultivator dressed as a disciple of Fine Stone Sect was reporting Li Ming's information to the branch sect master of Fine Stone Sect.

"Are you sure that the cultivator who took out the Foundation Building Pill is at Elegant People's Residence?" Fine Stone Sect's Branch Lord Zhang Qi asked the Qi Cultivating Stage cultivator before him in a deep voice.

"Replying to Sect Leader, I am sure!" I personally saw that cultivator leave the exchange center and directly return to Elegant People's Residence. " The Qi Cultivating Stage cultivator replied to Zhang Qi respectfully.

"Did you ask Elegant People's Residence about him?"

"Yes, Sect Leader. According to the servants in Elegant People's Residence, this person is called Li Li. He is a Foundation Cultivator who resides in Elegant People's Residence's private room. "

"Well, you haven't been discovered by him, have you?"

"No, Sect Leader. I can be certain that this person did not discover me."

"Good, not bad!" Take this bottle of pills and treat it as the reward of my sect's master. "Remember, don't tell anyone else about this, or else you will know my methods." Zhang Qi took out a jade bottle that contained a few Spirit Boosting Pills and threw it at the Qi Cultivating Stage cultivator.

The Qi Cultivating Stage cultivator took the jade bottle that Zhang Qi threw over. He suppressed the excitement in his heart and replied respectfully to Zhang Qi: "Yes, Sect Leader, I will definitely not tell this to anyone."

"Alright, you may leave now!" Hearing her Sect Leader call her out, the Qi Cultivating Stage cultivator bowed to Zhang Qi and left Zhang Qi's room.

Zhang Qi watched as the Qi Cultivating Stage cultivator left and muttered to himself: "It's actually in the Elegant People's Residence. It seems like it's impossible for this sect master to obtain the Foundation Building Pill before the auction. After I auction the Foundation Building Pill from the auction, I will kill Li Li. That way, not only will the Foundation Building Pill be in my hands, I can also get his storage bag. Since this person is able to take out a precious pellet like the Foundation Building Pill, I think that he must have a good fortune! "

It had to be said that the Qi Cultivating Stage cultivator that Zhang Qi had sent to tail him did have a trick up his sleeve. Li Ming had no idea that there was someone following him the entire time, so, he had no idea that there was someone trying to kill him after the auction ended. He was currently in the Elegant People's Residence, cultivating quietly, waiting for the auction to start.

In the blink of an eye, the day had arrived at the start of the auction.

In front of the doors of the Source Stones Auction House, one cultivator after another began to enter the auction house. The normally rare late Foundation Establishment cultivators were no longer rare in this place. In just an hour, there were already more than ten late Foundation Establishment cultivators passing by. And on the right side of the Source Stones Auction House, right at this moment, a 3rd level Qi Disciple cultivator slowly walked over to Li Ming and respectfully said, "Senior, do you need a commentator?"

"Examiner? Explain what the commentator is and what you mean by that? " Li Ming asked curiously after hearing what the Qi Cultivating Stage cultivator said.

"Senior, we, the commentators, are here specifically to help cultivators explain the various powers in the Elemental Rock City, so that cultivators can understand the various powers in the Elemental Rock City, so as to avoid offending the forces that they should not offend, and we are here to collect only one Low level spirit stones." The Qi Cultivating Stage cultivator explained respectfully to Li Ming.

"Sounds good. What's your name?" had just arrived in the city not long ago. If there was someone who could tell him about this in detail, Li Ming would feel that it was quite good!

In reply to Senior, I am called Li Da. I understand the basic situation of most of the forces in Elemental Rock City, I wonder if Senior needs me? This Qi Cultivating Stage cultivator was very smart and knew he couldn't say too much.

"Come with me to the auction house and help me explain the various powers. I'll give you two Low level spirit stones s as compensation, how about it? " Li Ming said to Li Da.

Hearing that Li Ming had given him two Low level spirit stones, Li Da said to Li Ming emotionally: "Yes, senior, I will do my best to explain to senior the various powers in Elemental Rock City." In his previous life, Li Da rarely met anyone who was willing to take out two spirit stones as compensation!

"In that case, let's go!" Then, Li Ming took the lead and walked towards the auction house.

Seeing Li Ming leading the way, Li Da immediately followed.

After entering the Source Stones Auction House, Li Ming walked to the auction item collection area and handed the jade bottle that contained the Foundation Building Pill over to the cultivator in charge of collecting them.

The cultivator looked at Li Ming's jade bottle and took out a jade cylinder from his storage bag. He looked at a servant and said: "Bring this senior to the Foundation Cultivator's room and wait for the auction to start." Then, he turned to Li Ming and said: "Senior, please wait for a moment. The auction is about to begin."

Then, the servant by the side of the cultivator led Li Ming and the other two to the location of the Foundation Cultivator.

In a moment, under the guidance of the servant, Li Ming arrived at his own room!

Looking at the room he was in, Li Ming couldn't help but sigh at how wealthy the three great powers of Elemental Rock City were. From his current position, he could see the complete view of the auction, and there were no less than 30 rooms like this in the entire auction house. A room like this would cost at least ten thousand taels of gold, and thirty of these would be more than three hundred thousand taels of gold. Although Li Ming was not really interested in gold, he couldn't help but sigh at how much money the three great powers had.

Sitting in his room, Li Ming watched as the Qi Cultivators below slowly walked in. From time to time, he could even see a Foundation Cultivator walk into the auction house. After half an hour, with almost no cultivators entering the auction house, Li Ming saw a mid stage Foundation Establishment cultivator in his thirties walking onto the stone stage in the center of the auction house.

On the stage, the middle-aged cultivator looked around and said, "I'm sure many of you know me, but this is also the first time some of you are participating in the auction, so I'll give you a brief introduction of yourself." My surname is Ji and I am Ming Yuan, I am the chief auctioneer of Source Stones Auction House. " With that, he cupped his hands and bowed, then said: "Thank you all for attending Source Stones Auction House's once a year auction, I would like to thank all of you. "I will not say anything else for now. Please take a look at the first auction item."

He then took out a long sword from the storage bag, and waved it around a few times, then said to everyone: "Fellow daoists, this is a third grade sword, made from Hundred Refinement Steel, it is extremely sharp, please take a look."

At this time, Jian Yuan took out a rock from the storage bag and the third grade sword in his hand chopped down, and the rock instantly became two pieces.

Looking at the rock on the ground, Jian Yuan said to the crowd: "I believe that all my fellow daoists know that this rock is the product of my Fine Stone Country! Everyone knew that this sword was incomparably tough, yet this sword was able to split this stone into two. I believe that all of you dao friends will no longer doubt the sharpness of this sword! Next, let's start the bidding, the price is 350 Low level spirit stones. "

"400 Low level spirit stones!"

"450 Low level spirit stones."

"Five hundred Low level spirit stones." After the abbreviated price was said, the cultivators below who were interested in the sword instantly started bidding!

"Six Medial Grade Spirit Stone s!" When the bids became more intense, a lean man shouted.

Seeing the lean man, Li Da explained to Li Ming: "Senior, this man is a rogue cultivator, moreover he is a sword cultivator, with a cultivation of Qi Disciple level 12, he is considered a powerful being among the rogue cultivators in Elemental Rock City." Li Da did not introduce the man's name, probably thinking that the man did not pique Li Ming's interest.

It was indeed the case, and the man did not arouse Li Ming's interest, but after hearing Li Da say that he was a sword cultivator, Li Ming looked at him for a bit, and then focused on the auction.

At this time, when everyone heard the sword cultivator bid six Medial Grade Spirit Stone, they did not increase the bid anymore, since a third grade sword was worth at most 550. At this time, the sword cultivator bid six Medial Grade Spirit Stone, which was already higher than the price, so everyone did not participate in the auction anymore. As a result, everyone's voices paused.

Seeing that the crowd had stopped talking, Jian Yuan said from the stage, "Six Medial Grade Spirit Stone going once."

"Six Medial Grade Spirit Stone, twice!"

"No one is raising the bid anymore? One must know that this is an incomparably sharp treasured sword. With a low leveled cultivator in hand, who knows, maybe he can even fight a battle beyond his level? " After Jian Yuan's words, he waited for a while and seeing that there was no one else bidding, he said, "Since no one else wants to bid, then six spirit stones three times. Congratulations to this fellow cultivator for auctioning this incomparably sharp treasured sword."

In the end, the sword cultivator bid six Medial Grade Spirit Stone s for the long sword, waiting for the auction to end so he could pay the bill and take the sword.

In the auctions that followed, most of the pills were cultivation pills and healing pills, there were some medicinal herbs to refine pills, and there were also some raw materials to refine weapons. Furthermore, there was a grade 4 weapon to auction, but it was a large blade which made Li Ming much more interested. Although Li Ming knew some peerless blade techniques, Li Ming still liked the treasured sword.

At this time, the auctioned items were auctioned off one by one, causing the atmosphere in the auction house to be stirred. Right now, even if it was a Grade 3 weapon, it would definitely be auctioned off at a price higher than six Medial Grade Spirit Stone. However, it was clear that there wouldn't be any more low-grade weapons being auctioned at this time.

Right at this moment, Yuanyuan took out a jade box from the storage bag and said to the cultivators: "Fellow daoists, I think everyone knows the value of the older generation of spiritual medicines! Right now, in the jade box on his palm, there was an aged spiritual medicine. A snow lotus over 1000 years old with a starting price of 1,500 Spirit Stones. If you have the intention, Fellow Daoist, please do your best to bid right now! "

Just as Jian Yuan finished his sentence, an early Foundation Establishment cultivator below said, "I bid 1,700 Low level spirit stones."
