Chapter 2097 Wanbao Auction
Following the crowd, Han Li and the other two entered the auction venue at Baizao Mountain.
As soon as he came in, Han Li sensed some spatial fluctuations, and what he saw was a vast conference hall that was much larger than it looked from the outside.
Obviously, the person in charge here has urgently arranged a space ban not long ago, otherwise there would not be such obvious space fluctuations.
However, no one cared about this and went in one after another.
The maids at the venue also hurried over to greet everyone according to their different levels of cultivation and arranged seats for everyone.
Han Li and the other two suppressed their cultivation to the late Taiyi level, which was the highest level among the crowd.
So, soon a beautiful girl wearing a blue dress and with sky blue eyebrows came over. Her cultivation had reached the late Golden Immortal level.
"Three seniors, I am Lan Mei, welcome to this auction. Please let me lead the way for you."
There was nothing impeccable about Lan Mei's manners and expression, which made people feel comfortable.
"Well, lead the way."
Han Li replied calmly.
"The three seniors are all the top Taiyi Jade Immortals and are qualified to sit in the front row of the VIP seats. Please follow me."
Lan Mei explained and turned around to lead the way.
Soon, they arrived at the place.
This is a separate room. The room is not large, only two or three meters in size. There is a white stone table and several stone chairs. The spiritual tea, fairy fruit, etc. on the table are all extraordinary things.
Although the layout is simple, it is clean and tidy. There is a faint fragrance in the air that makes people feel calm.
The room was closed on three sides, with only the front being a forbidden light curtain through which one could see the center of the venue.
At this time, countless seats had been placed around the venue, and they were basically full, and everyone was waiting for the auction to begin.
The other VIP seats, like Han Li's, were arranged in a fan shape, suspended in the air in the square.
In addition, Han Li also noticed that there were balls of light as bright as the scorching sun floating above the venue.
Needless to say, that is the exclusive seat for Daluo monks.
After sitting down, Han Li immediately asked:
“Is there a list of items for this auction?”
"I was just about to show it to the three seniors."
Lan Mei took out three blue jade slips and handed them to Han Li and the other two respectively. Then she said:
“The catalog contains most of the lots in this auction. Even the highlights of different categories have some introduction.”
"Yes, you are not as mysterious as other auctions."
Han Li probed into the jade slip with his spiritual sense and nodded with satisfaction.
"This is the case in all of Liujin City. If the three seniors have no other instructions, I will take my leave."
Lan Mei replied with a smile.
Han Li also expressed his understanding after hearing this, saying that this was actually a manifestation of strength.
With the Sun and Moon Pavilion and Baizao Mountain around, high-quality immortal artifacts will appear at every large-scale auction. This is the best signboard and there is no need to play any tricks.
"Wait a minute," Han Li stopped Lan Mei who was about to leave and asked:
"I heard that the final item of this auction is a third-grade immortal weapon. Is this true?"
"Senior, this is absolutely true!
According to the news passed down from above, this treasure was personally refined by the newly promoted third elder of Baizao Mountain, and its power ranks among the top three immortal artifacts in the immortal world!"
When Lan Mei talked about this, a look of admiration appeared on her face.
"Is it really that powerful?"
Han Li was stunned when he heard this. After all, this statement was too exaggerated and it was almost like bragging.
“Senior, please don’t disbelieve me. This Third Elder has previously shown his power in Gilded City and sacrificed a second-grade immortal sword!
That immortal sword was also made by him personally!"
Lan Mei explained quickly.
"He can actually refine a second-grade immortal weapon! He is truly amazing!"
Han Li sighed sincerely. So far, the first grade is only natural, and the second grade is the limit of weapon refining.
This kind of person is only the third elder of Baizao Mountain. Baizao Mountain really has a profound foundation!
"Okay, you don't need to take care of things here anymore, go down."
After sighing, Han Li said to Lan Mei.
"Yes, if the three seniors have any instructions, just ring this small bell."
Lan Mei agreed immediately, then took out a small brass clock, placed it on the table, and left the room.
After the woman left, Han Li waved his sleeves and a layer of green light enveloped the entire room.
"Tihun, Xiaobai, you have been looking at the list for such a long time, have you found anything you like?"
"I have my eyes on two immortal artifacts, but the starting prices are quite high. It will probably cost a lot of immortal stones to buy them."
Tihun pointed out the two magical artifacts with hesitation.
"I have 50 million immortal stones in my hand now, so it's no problem for me to buy one. But if I want both, I'll have to rely on my luck."
Han Li looked at the starting price and couldn't help but frowned slightly.
"Then I only need one. The master can use the remaining immortal stones to buy something for Xiaobai."
Tihun immediately gave in.
"Sister Tihun, you don't have to let me. There is no immortal tool in the list that can enhance my natural magical powers. Master, you only need to buy me some immortal materials to help me practice."
Xiaobai said nonchalantly.
The law he practiced was too obscure, so he hadn't had any expectations coming here in the first place; he just wanted to join in the fun.
"In that case, let's first improve Tihun's strength."
Han Li made a decision immediately.
"Thank you, Master!"
Tihun couldn't help but say with joy.
"Ding" "Ding" "Ding"
With the ringing of three bells, the auction officially began.
There was a flash of red light on the auction table in the center of the venue, and a jade-faced young man appeared out of nowhere. It was Wang Lingxi, who was in the early stage of Daluo.
Although his own cultivation was not enough to intimidate the Daluo monks attending the meeting, the Gongsun Chou behind him was a well-known Daluo late-stage monk.
"The once-in-a-millennium Wanbao Festival officially begins today!
This time, due to coincidence, we, Baizaoshan, and Riyue Pavilion are co-organizing an auction. The number of items to be auctioned is twice as many as in the past, and there will be top-notch finale items. You will surely feast your eyes and return home with a full load!
Okay, enough nonsense, let’s welcome to the first lot!”
After a brief opening speech, Wang Lingxi gestured to the backstage, and immediately several strong men carried a jade box onto the auction stage.
A yellow crystal stone the size of a millstone was placed in the jade box. Countless ochre-colored rays of light were swirling and flashing around it, and an extremely powerful wave of laws was emanating from it.
"Everyone, please look, this is the Earth Emperor Crystal from the Wu Earth Immortal Realm.
It was born from the endless depths of the earth and has absorbed the essence of the earth for billions of years. Its material is extremely hard and contains abundant gravity laws, which is enough to refine a fourth-grade earth-attributed immortal weapon!
The reserve price of this treasure is 5 million immortal stones, and each bid increase must not be less than 100,000!"
Wang Lingxi basically told the truth.
Although this piece of Earth Emperor Crystal was not Han Li's target item, it still made his eyes light up at this moment.
You know, among the grades of immortal weapons, the fourth grade is a watershed.
Although there are not many fifth-grade immortal artifacts, there are quite a few of them. An ordinary Daluo cultivator can always own one if he puts in some effort.
After all, as long as the materials for refining the magic weapon are not bad, and you spend time to slowly refine and nurture it, you can use hard work to upgrade the grade of the magic weapon to level five.
But it is not the case for a fourth-grade immortal weapon. To refine a fourth-grade immortal weapon, the requirements for material quality and refining attainments are extremely stringent, almost to the point of being against the will of heaven!
Therefore, in previous Wanbao Festivals, a fourth-grade immortal weapon was enough to become the finale, attracting a large number of Daluo monks from various immortal realms to scramble for it.
And a top-level third-grade immortal weapon actually appeared at this auction. Han Li even doubted whether those Daluo cultivators would fight each other in the end because of it!
“I’ve only seen Earth Emperor Crystal in books before, but I didn’t expect it to look so delicious.
Hehe, if the boss was here, he would definitely remember who took the photo of this treasure! "
Xiaobai said while drooling.
Although Han Li did not need this Earth Emperor Crystal, he did not distract himself at the moment. After all, he needed to know the final transaction price of this Earth Emperor Crystal before deciding on his auction strategy.
The Five Elements Immortal Materials have always had the widest audience. In just a few breaths, the bid had exceeded twice the auction price.
Finally, this piece of Earth Emperor Crystal was bought by a Taiyi cultivator in the VIP seat at a high price of 12 million Immortal Yuan Stones.
"The next treasure is a Fire Dao Pill, ranked fifth grade."
Wang Lingxi had just finished introducing half of the topic when several aura fluctuations were heard from the VIP seats.
The fifth-grade Fire Dao Pill is an incomparable temptation for Taiyi cultivators who practice the laws of true fire.
At the same time, in a ball of red sun high above the conference hall, Luo Hong and Chi Meng were sitting opposite each other at two tables.
"Fairy, are you putting all the Dao Dan on your body on the auction? Is it necessary?"
Luo Hong took a sip of the Chitian Immortal Wine and felt as if his whole body was burning. Even with his mortal body, he couldn't help but break out in a thin sweat.
Chi Meng was not to be outdone. He picked up the wine glass and drank the Five Elements Wine in it in one gulp. Suddenly his whole body was burning and he became like a torch. It was quite interesting to watch.
"Do you know how many Daluo monks have come here via the Star Gate in the past month? Why don't you just sell them to me? You don't need these immortal stones!"
Chi Meng gritted his teeth and glared at Luo Hong.
She originally didn't want to watch the auction with Luo Hong. After all, she was destined to be robbed of all her immortal stones by the other party.
But this guy actually used the drinking contest as an excuse, how could she be afraid of him.
As it turned out, this bastard was not only good at refining weapons, but he was also an expert at brewing wine. The power of the Five Elements could even slightly restrain her true fire power.
This time he made fun of me again!
I'm so angry!
"If I sell it to you directly, how can I show off in front of others? Come, have another drink!"
Luo Hong smiled and filled her own glass again.
As time went by, rare and precious items appeared one after another, which were too dazzling to take in and constantly pushed the atmosphere of the venue to wave after wave of climaxes.
Many monks directly spent all their fortunes to get what they needed, but they were still happy to do it!
Finally, the auction reached its last category, the auction of finished immortal artifacts.
Everyone couldn't help but sit up straight, because finished fairy artifacts have always been the category that can be auctioned at the highest price.
"The first treasure is called the Netherworld Ghost Claw, which is ranked fifth. It is made from the claw of a Netherworld Ghost Beast in the Netherworld Immortal Realm, mixed with countless evil spirits, eighteen kinds of ghost blood, and thirty-six kinds of ghost energy. It was also forged in the Netherworld Fire for a million years before it was finally refined. It contains the incomparably powerful Yin Ghost Law."
As he spoke, Wang Lingxi presented a black claw, about a meter in size, in front of everyone.
I saw that this giant black claw had nine fingers, and the gaps between the fingers were covered with webbed flesh. Countless black air surrounded it, making bursts of shrill ghostly cries!
"That's it!"
Han Li's expression brightened and he prepared to take action.
"The starting price of this treasure is 10 million Immortal Yuan Stones, and each bid must not be less than 500,000!"
After Wang Lingxi announced the starting price, the auction officially began.
At first, everyone was bidding very intensely, and in a blink of an eye, the price was raised to 15 million.
But then, the bidding sounds became sparse.
Obviously, most of the people who bid previously wanted to get a bargain, but after the price exceeded 15 million, it became not worthwhile to buy a fifth-grade immortal weapon that did not match the laws that they practiced.
Correspondingly, if the law practiced by a cultivator matches the Netherworld Ghost Claw, he will be more unlikely to give up than an ordinary cultivator.
The result was that Han Li competed with another opponent in bidding and doubled the price until he shouted out "30 million Immortal Yuan Stones" before he won the treasure for Ti Hun.
Not long after, Lan Mei brought the Netherworld Ghost Claw over and took away 30 million Immortal Yuan Stones in front of Han Li's painful look.
In order to obtain another magic weapon that Tihun had his eyes on, he had to sell some of the magic materials on his body.
This type of sale can naturally only be sold at market price and cannot be temporarily included in the auction.
The auctioneer made a lot of money from this transaction!
Although several Five Elements Immortal Artifacts that were subsequently auctioned were also ranked fifth grade, their transaction prices did not exceed 30 million Immortal Yuan Stones, but were generally around 25 million Immortal Yuan Stones.
After bidding on hundreds of fifth-grade magic weapons in succession, it was finally the turn of the second magic weapon that Tihun wanted.
“The next treasure is incredible, it’s called the Soul-Dispersing Ghost Flute, and it’s a supreme treasure of the ghost world.
Like the previous Netherworld Ghost Claw, they all came from the Netherworld Sea Fairyland.
It originally belonged to Master Nili, the founder of the Ten Thousand Ghosts Sect, and was ranked as a fourth-grade immortal weapon. Unfortunately, in the battle at the Nether Sea that year, Master Nili was defeated by Fairy Murong of the Taibai Sword Sect, and the Soul-Dispersing Ghost Flute was also damaged, falling to the fifth grade.
But its foundation as a fourth-grade immortal weapon is still there, and its power far exceeds that of an ordinary fifth-grade immortal weapon.
And if you have the opportunity, you may be able to repair it.
The starting price is 20 million Immortal Yuan Stones, and each bid increase must not be less than 1 million!"
Wang Lingxi took out a black piccolo and announced.
The Soul-Dispersing Ghost Flute is an immortal weapon for attacking the soul. It is the most popular of the offensive immortal weapons. And it has such a big reputation. Han Li suddenly felt a little worried.
Sure enough, the Soul-scattering Ghost Flute quickly exceeded 30 million, while Han Li had only collected 40 million in total.
So, he made up his mind and raised the price directly:
"Forty million!"
"Humph, you think you can scare us off with just 40 million? Forty-one million!"
A cold and arrogant voice suddenly sounded, shattering Han Li's wishful thinking.
However, before the owner of the voice could feel proud, a majestic female voice came down from the sky:
"Fifty million!"
