Chapter 8 Mo Yao
Master Yuan was so angry that he almost vomited blood, but this was a silence. He "breathed his waist" with others. He would only be even more embarrassing when he made a fuss. He spent at least 20,000 taels at once, and he could only pinch his nose and accept it.
"The deal is completed! Congratulations to Liang for helping Master Yuan take pictures of these two 'Green Thunder Bat' puppets."
Ning Rui smiled politely, and her eyes were intriguing. For Hengshe, the big forces were most willing to see in the auction hall. First, they bid for each other, so Hengshe could make more money; second, this would facilitate Hengshe to balance these forces back and forth and profit from it. Hengshe would never allow the power to dominate in the area where it is located, which would be dangerous for Hengshe. Only in the chaotic battles can Hengshe have the value of being attracted or even relying on.
The auction atmosphere was even more popular, and the amount of the transaction was also shocked by Chu Xiao. The quality of the Hengshe auction was indeed well-known, and many rare things would appear. The third item was a first-level "Bodhidden Sword" of spiritual weapon, which was obtained by the Li family in Delancheng for a price of 130,000 taels of titanium.
Speaking of tools, as the name suggests, they are weapons, armor, tools, vessels, etc. The tools in the world are divided into four levels: "mortals", "spirits", "spirits" that are used in daily life, except for ordinary things used in daily life. They are made of precious materials, made by weapon refiners or spirit witches using secret techniques, and have "utensils" that are better than ordinary objects, and only they have the qualifications to evaluate the level. According to the material, hardness, the quality of use characteristics, and the energy level, the "utensils" are divided into four levels: "mortals", "spirits", "immortals" and "divine artifacts". Each level is divided into nine levels. The higher the grade, the more difficult it is to refine, the higher the cost, and naturally it is rarer, and the more valuable it is.
About 99% of the "utensils" in the world are all mortals, including many powerful people who have reached the Earth Realm, and they only use eighth and ninth-level weapons and armor. Spiritual weapons are relatively rare, because the manufacturing of spiritual weapons is almost monopolized by spiritual witches. People among humans who can be able to make spiritual weapons can count them with one hand. Each piece is at least as expensive as tens of thousands of titanium, and it is often priced but not worth it. At the level of spiritual weapons, the biggest iconic difference between spiritual weapons and mortal weapons is that spiritual weapons have an attribute power increase. For example, a master who practices fire-attribute skills with a first-level spiritual weapon can launch an attack of the second-level power of the Earth Realm with a first-level weapon.
If it is a second-level weapon in the spiritual realm, it can exert the power of the third-level earth realm. Of course, attacks that exceed their own strength consume very much energy. You were originally enough to fight for three hundred rounds, but after such ten moves, you would be unable to fight again. But the premise is that the opponent can also withstand the ten tricks you have to do. Therefore, people are eager to be spiritual weapons, and only some powerful people above the level of the earth realm have a way to get it. Immortal weapons are more advanced than spiritual weapons, and their power is incredible. It is not because the materials used are more expensive than spiritual weapons, but because the immortal weapons will have something that spiritual weapons do not have, that is life. Not bad, a refined weapon
Things can also have life. Of course, it does not mean that this object will run, jump, eat and sleep, but that this object will have a "artifact spirit" with intelligence. This "artifact spirit" can be born when refining weapons by some secret method, or it can be produced by long-term pregnancy of the soul that the object carries. What is even more amazing is that the immortal weapon will grow and upgrade with the growth of the "artifact spirit". There is no doubt that the immortal weapon can be called a treasure. On this Hengjie Continent, all those who possess immortal weapons are giants who look down on the world or wealthy sects that are powerful in the world. As for the magical artifact, it only exists in legends, as if only a god-like existence will have it.
The auction has been going on for half a day, and Chu Xiao did not show that he was particularly interested in anything, but instead seemed to be wandering around.
"The next item is a cultural relic of the previous generation, with a stele without words." The stone platform in the crystal display cabinet slowly rose again, carrying a brown stone tablet about three feet long and about four inches wide and thick. There was no word on it. If there weren't a circle of dense patterns on the edge, it would look no different from a paving stone slab. The so-called previous generation was the era before the war of the end of the world more than two hundred years ago. After that war, the population of Hengjie Continent was less than one-tenth. The brilliant culture in the past was almost extinct, and civilization had a great regression. No one knew what many of the previous generation items found in the ruins were used for. Even the texts of the previous generations can be recognized by experts and scholars. However, there were no words in this stele, and the stone materials were not seen in any speciality or value. All the guests were surprised, and some began to whisper.
"This monument is indeed a bit special. People who can use it naturally know it. Even if they don't know it, it is just an ordinary stone. So I am sorry that I can't explain this lot in detail. The starting price is 20,000 taels of titanium, and the bidding range is as low as 1,000 taels, and the auction starts."
As soon as Ning Rui said this, many people present felt that their IQ was insulted, and they felt that they were suddenly excluded from a certain level. Some people who were not well-educated had already started to curse. However, this place is Hengshe after all, and if you want to make trouble here, you must first prepare to not see the sun tomorrow.
Chu Xiao looked at this stone tablet, it was indeed too ordinary, like an ordinary tombstone in a cemetery. However, the patterns surrounding the stone tablet were very strange, complex and dense, not like decorative patterns, but more like something that he had seen. Chu Xiao tried hard to search for his memories, recalling where he had seen similar patterns...
Suddenly, Chu Xiao suddenly widened his eyes as if he was struck by lightning, and said in a daze:
"Is it... Could it be... it's really..." His actions shocked Dingling and Liang Hai.
At this moment, the No. 1 box on the innermost part of the second floor was moving. Because the lights on the second floor were dim, people didn't pay much attention. Only then did they realize that this No. 1 box had bead curtains hanging, which made people unable to see anything inside. A servant-like man walked out and took out the curtains, attracting people's eyes. However, the situation in the box was still not real, and they only felt two figures sitting.
"My master bids 25,000 taels." The servant said aloud.
There were whispers on the field, and everyone was talking about who was sitting in the mysterious box. Some people knew about it. They remained silent with the mentality of watching the show, but no one made a bid.
"Thirty thousand taels."
Just when the servant thought the stone tablet was about to be obtained, a small voice seemed to burst from the bottom of the deep lake, which made his heart tremble. In the box with the bead curtains hanging, a figure suddenly stood up.
"Thirty-five thousand taels." The servant continued to offer, looking at the box where the offer had just been issued with cold eyes.
In this box, Dingling and Liang Hai looked at Chu Xiao like a monster. Seeing his eyes shining, he looked at the stone tablet and then the box number in the distance.
"Forty thousand taels."
Chu Xiao stood up and walked to the railing of the private room. Everyone looked at the young man who was rushing to buy a broken stone. The figure who suddenly stood up in the private room, now opened the bead curtain and walked out, stopping the servant who was planning to continue bidding.
"Brother Chu Xiao, it's really you. Are you back?"
Like a pauling voice, which was singing softly and like a tinging spring, it sounded in the auction hall with a slight tremor. Suddenly, the whole auction hall became silent. The lady of the Mo family, Mo Yao, walked out of the box No. 1. This beautiful and quiet girl, now her pink face was red, her beautiful eyes were filled with mist, and she seemed to be about to cry.
"A Yao, don't be fine." Chu Xiao scratched his head, and suddenly he didn't know what to say, and showed his signature smile awkwardly.
"It seems like there is a story!" Everyone in the auction house looked at Chu Xiao, then Mo Yao, and sighed in their hearts.
I don’t know how long the entire auction house has solidified under this situation, but in the end, Ning Rui couldn’t help it and coughed twice.
"That..., the scene of reunion after a long separation is really touching. I just don't know if you two, will you continue to bid for this item?"
A word woke up the dreamer. Mo Yao and Chu Xiao were embarrassed all of a sudden. Mo Yao blushed even more and turned her head and returned to the private room, just asking the servant to signal not to bid. So, the stone tablet fell into Chu Xiao's hands for 40,000 taels of titanium.
The subsequent auction seemed to become a little absent-minded. Many people were thinking about who was the boy who made the biggest beauty in Nanqi City lose his composure in public. They also secretly glanced at Chu Xiao's private room from time to time. The big guys in each private room also attached great importance to this young man who could have such a strange relationship with the Mo family.
Then, Chu Xiao bought a first-level "Zhanxing Spiritual Dragon Armor" for 100,300 taels of titanium. This is a close-fitting inner armor made of the scales of the "Zhanlong Dragon" in the Nine Abyss Sea of Voids, plus a precious liquid metal called "Star Salvia". It is as thin as cloth, as soft as silk, and is very comfortable to wear, but it can withstand attacks at the fifth level of the Heaven Realm without breaking it, and can absorb 80% of the attack energy within the range of the endurance. Such a good armor was originally sold for more than ten or twenty-hundred thousand taels. However, because there are many unknown speculations about Chu Xiao's identity, everyone is unwilling to offend this young man who cannot see the details easily. Moreover, these big guys came here this time.
The main purpose is the "Seven Stars Plate Dragon Locking Array" that shocked them. Although most of them didn't even know what "Li Dang" is, they knew how rare things that they didn't even know what they were. If no one could show this "Li Dang" today, it would be ruled out that the seller was willing to exchange for other treasures. After all, such a precious array is hard to come by in a century, and I'm afraid there will be no chance to have this time. Even if it's not good, it's worth bragging to be able to see this legendary array with your own eyes. In this way, Chu Xiao picked up a big advantage, but his titanium gold cost him a lot, so he could only watch the show steadily.
Sure enough, not long after, Chu Xiao regretted it. When half a volume of the "Seal Sutra" appeared in the display cabinet, he was stunned and wished he could beat his chest and stamp his feet, and borrow money everywhere. Although this legendary "Seal Sutra" was only a small half volume, it was the ultimate holy textbook of talismans. Although others may not know it, Chu Xiao, as a master of formation who can make the "Seven Stars Plate Dragon Locking Heaven Array" by himself, knew that the value of this talisman was equivalent to the soul of the formation. If there were this "Seal Sutra" scroll, his formation attainment would have been qualitatively improved. But at this moment, he could only stare at a group of outsiders who were competing for the price, Chu Xiao seemed to be watching the pearls covered in dust and his heart was bleeding. When the price soared to 120,000 taels of titanium, only the Mo family and a mysterious seventh-level spiritual witch in the ground were fighting for it.
"Fifteen thousand taels!"
The servant of the Mo family flew over the price in a simple manner. The spirit witch snorted out a stimulating aura from the cloak that covered her body tightly, which made Ning Rui, who was in charge of the auction, look solemn. Then, a more domineering and fierce aura filled the No. 1 box with a bead curtain, covering the spirit witch's aura. The spirit witch snorted coldly, and the murderous aura appeared, and was about to take action.
"Let's wait, don't be impatient." Ning Rui's silver bell sounded in the nervous hall. "This is Hengshe. If you take action at the auction, you must first consider the consequences." Ning Rui's tone was neither salty nor light, but the pressure of the purulent pulse at the peak of the ninth level of the land instantly filled the entire auction hall. Some people with low skills even stood steadily and sat on the ground. Immediately the metal sound was loud, and huge arrows were stretched out around the roof of the hall, and the sharp arrows were flashing with black light. The sound of the metal bowstring slowly pulled everyone's hearts gradually rose to their throats. The spirit witch pondered for a moment and calmed down his emotions. Looking at the box No. 1, he slowly said in a voice that seemed to rub against gold and iron:
"Mo Yang, I advise you not to get involved in some things that you are not qualified or capable of touching. This will not be of any benefit to your Mo family."
"Haha..., whether you have the ability and qualifications is my Mo family's business, and you don't have to worry about it. If you think that the "Seal Sutra" fragment can only belong to you, just do it." Mo Yang's voice came from the box No. 1, and his tone was also unkind.
"I hope you don't regret it!" After saying that, the Sang Qiong Lingwu turned around and left, very straightforward.
"Congratulations to the Mo family for taking the "Seal Sutra". Below, what you are about to see is the final item of this auction - the 'Seven Stars Plate Dragon Locking Heaven Formation'!" As Sang Qiong Lingwu left, the crossbow on the roof slowly took back. Ning Rui smiled like a flower, as if nothing had happened just now. Everyone held their breath and stared at the slowly rising stone platform in the crystal display cabinet.
What caught everyone's eyes were seven array plates that were neatly poked on the crystal stand like black jade plates, like seven mirrors, reflecting psychedelic light under the lights. The energy pressure emitted by the array plate instantly made the lights in the hall sway continuously, and the space in the crystal cabinet twisted slightly. The defensive formation that protected the crystal cabinet seemed to be attacked, and suddenly opened with all its might, forming an energy cover on the auction table. Everyone took a breath of cold air, and the oppression of the as if facing a peerless ferocious beast made many people present tremble slightly excited.
"Everyone has felt it. This kind of oppression is the only one I have seen in my life. I believe no one will doubt the authenticity of this formation. Although this formation is a simplified version of the array plate, its range is 30 miles. It can withstand any attack below the soul realm powerhouse. It can replenish energy by any fire-attribute crystal treasure, and the number of openings is not limited. It is actually a perfect sect-sect formation and the foundation of the sect." Ning Rui's words once again shocked everyone. If the wind of this formation spreads further, it will definitely cause a commotion in the Hengjie Continent, and maybe a bloody storm will also cause.
"This item is subject to the seller's request, and there is no reserve price. It only needs a strange item "Li Dang" in exchange. Whoever has this item, please bid for it."
At this moment, even Mo Yang and Mo Yao walked out of the box and looked at the "Seven Stars Plate Dragon Locking Sky Array" in surprise. Mo Yao cast inquiring eyes at Chu Xiao, and Chu Xiao blinked at him. Mo Yang immediately understood when he saw it, and then sighed. He seemed to want this array, but he did not "Li Dang".
"I have a piece of 'Li Dang' here, and I'm willing to exchange it!"
Hearing this, Chu Xiao felt a thrust in his heart.
"Have you finally found me?"
Chapter completed!
