Chapter 60: Jindan Pressing Array
It was almost dusk, and the open space in front of the Lingchuan was crowded, although it was not as grand as the grand occasion when the gold condensation pill was auctioned on the tenth day of October last year, but there were nearly two hundred monks waiting for the opening of the Lingchuan and the start of the auction.
At this time, Xiao Mian shrank in a corner, the shadow covered most of his figure, and when he had nothing to do, he turned his attention to the conversation between the two loose cultivators.
"Brother Liu, there is something wrong with this Lingchuanfang City! The law and order in Fang City is obviously very good, why are there still so many patrolling monks on duty? You must know that hiring so many monks in the foundation building period to patrol is not a small amount at the end of a day!"
"Little Xuanzi, what do you know!? Lingchuanfang City suffered a big loss not long ago, if you can't get your face back, Lingchuanfang City will lose face. Speaking of this, Brother Liu looked left and right, and deliberately made a gesture to lower his voice, "I heard that more than half a year ago, the treasure secret room in Lingchuanfang City was stolen, and the thieves robbed the artifacts worth 20,000 medium-grade spirit stones, and walked away. As for this employment fee, there is naturally some pressure on Lingchuanfang City, but it is only a drop in the bucket for the forces behind Lingchuanfang City!"
"Is there such a thing? There are still people who dare to hijack Lingchuanfang City? Isn't it said that Lingchuanfang City has three Jindan powerhouses stationed all year round? How can it still ...... Could it be that person turned out to be Yuan Ying......"
"Silence! you don't want to live!"
Glancing at Xiao Mian not far away, Brother Liu hurriedly diverted the topic and said some irrelevant gossip.
At this time, Xiao Mian was shocked in his heart, listening to the meaning of these two people's words, the person who hijacked Lingchuanfang City turned out to be a Yuanying Ancestor - but how could a dignified Yuanying Ancestor do such an evil deed for the sake of just 20,000 medium-grade spirit stones?
After thinking about it and not coming up with a reason, Xiao Mian didn't think about it anymore, after all, it had nothing to do with him, and more importantly, the Lingchuan finally started on time.
He deliberately waited for a few more moments, and after most of the monks entered the Lingchuan, Xiao Mian stood up slowly.
This time, without Xie Ying's guidance, Xiao Mian had to pay an entrance fee of fifty lower-grade spirit stones when he entered the Lingchuan - this was still Xiao Mian's relationship as a monk in the Qi cultivation period, if it was a monk in the foundation building period, he would need to pay three hundred lower-grade spirit stones, and Jindan monk would need to pay ten middle-grade spirit stones.
After paying the entry fee, Xiao Mian was invited into the Lingchuan, and then saw that seven or eight monks were already waiting, and a maid in front was obviously arranged by the auction organizer to pick them up, but it was not until two more monks came in that they led everyone into the auction hall, obviously without Xie Ying's care, Xiao Mian not only needed to pay the admission fee, but also had the treatment of a maid leading alone before, as for the independent Accord, naturally there was no need to count on it.
Sure enough, Xiao Mian and the others were led to the seats around the platform.
casually found a seat on the side, and after sitting down, Xiao Mian found that the two people sitting not far away were Brother Liu and his friend who were talking before. Slightly stunned, Xiao Mian didn't bother to look for other seats, so as not to attract attention.
In a few moments, an old man with a white beard walked onto the platform.
"Old man Duan Tianwei is one of the three Jindan stationed in Lingchuanfang City!"
The first to grab people, the old man first gave everyone present a dismount.
Sure enough, after Duan Tianwei finished speaking, the originally noisy scene fell silent, Duan Tianwei obviously enjoyed this atmosphere of everyone's attention.
Xiao Mian was a little disdainful, and when he looked up, sure enough, there was not a floating pavilion in the air, which showed that at least on the bright side, there were no Jindan powerhouses participating in this auction, and as for whether there were Jindan powerhouses hidden in the secret, it was not something that Xiao Mian could know.
No wonder a Duan Tianwei dared to swagger so much, when the Nine Floating Pavilions were lifted into the sky, why didn't he see this Tianwei come out and jump?
"Everything in the auction is according to the usual practice, the old man won't say much, let's start with the first nine!" As Duan Tianwei's words landed, nine maids walked around with nine trays, Duan Tianwei opened the first piece of red cloth, and saw a fist-sized black gold ore lying on it, Duan Tianwei looked at it with some excitement, and then looked up and introduced: "This first lot is a strange thing that even the old man is a little greedy for-black gold! The coarse ore of the Nine Heavens Xuanjin can also be directly used to refine weapons, although the effect is far worse than that of the Nine Heavens Xuanjin, but for the monks of the foundation building period or even the Jindan period, it can be regarded as commendable!"
As soon as Duan Tianwei's words came out, there was an uproar below, but Xiao Mian was dumbfounded.
Nine Heavens Xuanjin, that is one of the best metal spiritual materials in the legend, the ordinary flying sword to add a little fingernail cover of the Nine Heavens Xuanjin will greatly strengthen the sharpness of the flying sword, but the Nine Heavens Xuanjin has always been available but not sought, occasionally born some are also obtained by the ancestor of the Yuan Infant or the major sects, ordinary loose cultivation is only heard of its name, not its shape, now see this black Xuanjin Although it is just a crude ore for refining the Nine Heavens Xuanjin, it is already precious, no wonder the auction will take this thing to make the first lot of a good start.
As for Xiao Mian, he remembered that when the scholar helped him refine the Xuanfeng Sword, he took out the black and gold metal the size of a fingernail, and after thinking about it carefully, the scholar did say that the metal was the Nine Heavens Xuanjin, and he had a very distressed expression.
Now it seems that in the end, it is still earned by itself.
"Although it is impossible to refine the Nine Heavens Xuanjin from this piece of Black Xuanjin, if it is directly used to transform the flying sword, it is enough to more than double the sharpness of a magic weapon-grade flying sword, and the attack power and destructive power will definitely be more than doubled. After detailing the use and value of the lot, Duan Tianwei finally said: "The reserve price of this item is 1,000 lower-grade spirit stones, and the price increase shall not be less than 100 lower-grade spirit stones each time, and the auction will start!"
"Fifteen hundred lower grade spirit stones!"
"Two thousand!"
"I'll give you two thousand five!"
"I don't expect the Nine Heavens Xuanjin in my life, but it is impossible to give up when I encounter this Black Xuanjin, three thousand lower-grade spirit stones, I want it!"
"Hmph, you said you wanted it, it's yours, four thousand low-grade spirit stones!"
"You!huh...... , four thousand and one hundred low-grade spirit stones!"
"Five thousand!"
“...... , five thousand and one hundred lower-grade spirit stones!"
"Six thousand!"
“......”
The monk who was determined to get Hei Xuanjin before glanced at the monk who raised the price with himself, but he didn't increase the price in the end.
The others had already stopped quoting, after all, six thousand lower-grade spirit stones were worth most of the wealth of ordinary foundation building period monks, enough to buy a high-grade magic weapon flying sword, rather than buying a piece of black Xuanjin and spending a lot of time, it was better to buy a brand new flying sword.
Besides, this is only the first lot after all, and God knows if there is a more favorite artifact in the future?
As for Xiao Mian, he didn't bother to quote, the Xuanfeng Sword in his hand was made of real Nine Heavens Xuanjin edging, what was the use of asking for this black Xuanjin?
In the end, the fist-sized piece of black Xuanjin was taken away by a personable sword cultivator, apparently used to strengthen his flying sword - and only a sword cultivator who only cultivated one sword in his life would continue to use various spiritual materials to strengthen his natal flying sword.
