Chapter 344 – Auction and Treasure Hunt (Not Today)
A day’s time quickly passed, and a sound transmission note flew in and floated in front of Shen Long.
Shen Long opened his eyes and flicked his two fingers, a red light flew out and hit the transmission note, the transmission note spontaneously combusted, and Xu Xin’s voice rang out, “Fellow Daoist Shen, I’m Xu Xin, we’ve met before, I have something to talk to you about.”
“Xu Xin!”
Shen Long frowned, he had nothing to do with Xu Xin, how could Xu Xin come over to find him.
As he thought about it, it should be related to Chu Buyu.
He got up and walked out, opened the courtyard door and saw Xu Xin standing at the door.
“Fellow Daoist Xu, please come in.”
Shen Long smiled faintly and invited Xu Xin in, closing the courtyard door.
“Fellow Daoist Shen, at the risk of asking, did you ask Senior Sister Chu to refine weapons?”
Xu Xin said politely.
“I used top-grade pills to ask Fairy Chu to help me refine weapons, is there anything wrong with that?”
Shen Long asked.
“That’s not true, by the way, the Barbarian Clan wanted Senior Sister Chu and a male cultivator, that male cultivator wouldn’t be Fellow Daoist Shen, would it!”
Xu Xin went straight to the point, his gaze fixed on Shen Long.
“If I say it’s not, do you believe me, Fellow Daoist Xu?”
Shen Long said with a smile.
“I believe.”
Xu Xin nodded, and his face stared as he asked, “Fellow Daoist Shen, can you tell me what is your relationship with Senior Sister Chu?”
“Friends, I asked her to help me refine weapons, and she asked me to help her refine pills.”
Shen Long said.
“Just a friend?”
Xu Xin frowned and said with some disbelief.
“Otherwise! What kind of relationship does Fellow Daoist Xu wish us to be?”
Shen Long spread his hands.
“I don’t have any other meaning, Fellow Daoist Shen, I’ve known Senior Sister Chu since we were at the Qi Refining Stage, and she seldom takes the initiative to help others to refine weapons, and I’m a little bit curious that she helped you to refine weapons, which is why I’m asking this question.”
Xu Xin explained.
“Any other questions? Fellow Daoist Xu?”
Shen Long asked.
“No, make yourself at home!”
Xu Xin turned around and was about to leave.
“Wait, Fellow Daoist Xu, you came to me to ask about my relationship with Fairy Chu?”
Shen Long was puzzled.
He thought Xu Xin would say harsh words and threaten him not to associate with Chu Buyu.
“Otherwise! You’re Chu Sister’s friend, it’s normal for you to come and go, to tell you the truth, Fellow Daoist Shen, I like Chu Sister, I don’t care what you mean to Chu Sister, I can compete with you fairly.”
Xu Xin was full of confidence.
“Fellow Daoist Xu, you’ve misunderstood, I didn’t say I want to compete with you.”
Shen Long corrected.
“My fair lady and gentleman, if you fight or not, that’s your freedom, but I won’t lose to you.”
Xu Xin said with a straight face.
Shen Long was speechless for a while, Xu Xin was the same as Ye Hongyao, very confident in himself.
“Well, I won’t bother you anymore, in half an hour, the auction will be held, if you want to participate in the auction, don’t miss it.”
Xu Xin said this and excused himself and left.
Shen Long left the residence and came to the entrance of the Star Moon Hall, where there were long lines and a large number of high-level cultivators entered the venue one after another.
Not long after, Shen Long arrived at the entrance.
“Senior Shen, Senior Aunt Chu has greeted us, you please follow me.”
A guard said politely and personally led Shen Long inside.
Not long after, Shen Long followed the guard to the front row of the venue, pointed to a position and said, “Senior Shen, this is the position that Master Aunt Chu has arranged for you, if there is anything you need, you can just ask.”
Shen Long nodded and asked the guard to step back.
Golden Crow True Monarch and many other YuanYing cultivators sat in the back row, next to Shen Long.
“Fellow Daoist Shen, your friendship with Fairy Chu is not shallow! She personally sent someone to arrange a seat for you.”
Golden Crow True Monarch smiled and joked.
Shen Long smiled bashfully and chatted with Golden Crow True Lord and the others.
After a tea time, along with a loud bell ringing, the gate closed.
Shen Long flew to the center of the venue on top of the circular high platform, cupped his fists and said, “I will preside over this auction, just like last time, the highest bidder will win, the bidding will now begin.”
He took out a small umbrella with flashing golden light and said, “Defense magic treasure golden light umbrella, the reserve price is 300,000 spirit stones, each increase shall not be less than 50,000 spirit stones.”
“Three hundred thousand!”
“Three hundred and fifty thousand!”
“Four hundred thousand!”
——
Shen Long naturally had no interest and closed his eyes.
Shen Lin took out one item after another, magic treasures, pills, talismans, formations, demon pills, spirit wood, spirit wine, etc., each of which was auctioned at a high price.
After half an hour, Shen Lin opened his mouth and said, “One jar of fourth-order spirit wine Nourishing Spirit Brew, which can strengthen the divine sense, in exchange for the tortoise shell of a thunder attribute fourth-order demon turtle.”
As soon as the words fell, Shen Long opened his eyes and flew to the top of the circular high platform and sent a message to Shen Lin, and a number of YuanYing cultivators flew to the top of the circular high platform and took out things for Shen Lin to check.
Shen Lin used the transmission disk to contact the owner of the object and eventually exchanged it with Shen Long.
Shen Long put away the God Nurturing Brew and returned to his seat. Shen Lin took out fourth-order pills, sets of magic treasures, and fourth-order formations, and some were auctioned with spirit stones, while others were exchanged for things.
“Spiritual Treasure Xuan Shui Ge, personally refined by Chu Shi Aunt, exchange the materials for refining the spiritual treasure, materials of equal value are also available.”
Shen Lin took out a short gob that flickered with blue light and opened his mouth.
This was a spiritual treasure that Chu Buyu had refined, and she had taken it out in exchange for materials for refining spiritual treasures.
A number of YuanYing cultivators flew to the top of the circular high platform and took out things for Shen Lin to see, and were eventually exchanged for this treasure by the Nine-Year-Old Scattered Man.
Shen Long was a little surprised, the nine year old scatterer had quite a lot of good things in his body, he had previously exchanged away the fourth rank puppet beast at the party, and now he was exchanging away a spiritual treasure, where did he get so many good things.
“The demonic pills of the early fourth rank water scow, in exchange for spirit pills that strengthen the divine soul, spirit wine is also fine.”
Shen Lin’s hand held a blue jade box containing a blue demonic dan.
“The demonic dan of a fourth-order water jiao! This is rare.”
True Lord Golden Crow said.
Shen Long became interested and walked to the circular high platform, took out a golden jade box and handed it to Shen Lin.
A number of YuanYing cultivators wanted to exchange for this demon pill, and they came to the circular high platform and took out things for Shen Lin to see.
After Shen Lin used the transmission disk to communicate with the owner of the object, he finally exchanged it with Shen Long.
“One celestial demon talisman, sealed with the essence soul of an early fourth stage water scow, using this talisman, the immortal cultivator can transform into a fourth stage water scow to fight against the enemy, in exchange for a life prolonging elixir.”
Shen Lin held a talisman with flashing blue light and said in a loud voice.
The blue talisman seal had a miniature scaly dragon pattern on its surface, emitting amazing aura fluctuations.
“Heavenly Demon Talisman!”
Shen Long became interested, as far as he knew, the Heavenly Demon Talisman could only be refined by the fourth-ranked talisman makers of the Heavenly Talisman Sect in the Southern Border Immortal Cultivation World, and it was very precious.
The other party’s ability was not small! Getting the essence soul of a fourth-ranked augur.
Many people wanted to exchange for this Heavenly Demon Talisman and took out things for Shen Lin to check, they were not able to take out life prolonging elixirs and intended to exchange for other things.
This Heavenly Demon Symbol ended up in Su Shanhe’s hands, and out of Shen Lin, no one knew what Su Shanhe had traded away for the Heavenly Demon Symbol.
“This auction ends here, next time we will prepare more generous goods.”
Shen Lin announced the end of the auction, and the crowd of cultivators left one after another.
Shen Long walked out of the auction venue not much farther, Xu Mo’s voice rang in his ears, “Fellow Daoist Shen, stay back.”
Shen Long stopped his steps and turned his head to see Xu Mo and Golden Crow True Lord walking over.
“Fellow Daoist Shen, we have something to talk to you about, is it convenient to take a step to talk?”
Xu Mo said politely.
Shen Long nodded and led them to his residence.
Xu Mo shook his sleeve and a golden orb the size of a pigeon’s egg shot out, punching in a spell, the golden orb blossomed into a blinding golden light, transforming into a solid golden light curtain that covered the three of them.
“Fellow Daoist Xu, just say what you have to say!”
Shen Long said.
He was also curious as to what it was that could make Xu Mo take it so seriously.
“Fellow Daoist Shen, truth be told, we would like to invite you to break the ban, we have discovered a suspected great sect’s ruins, there may be rare spirit medicines and fruits, are you interested?”
Xu Mo said in a deep voice.
“Ruins of a large sect? Fellow Daoist Xu, you and Fellow Daoist Qin are both in the mid YuanYing stage, you can’t open the prohibition either? You need to invite me to go?”
Shen Long was puzzled.
“Fellow Daoist Shen, the entrance has one of the Ten Great Ancient Forbiddings, the Green Lotus Divine Forbidding, a divine sense attack is required to break this forbidding, which is one of the reasons why I sparred with you earlier with my divine sense.”
Xu Mo explained.
“I won’t hide it from you, Fellow Daoist Shen, we had originally made an appointment with a few close friends to go together to break the prohibition, they suddenly disappeared, we haven’t been able to contact them, and we were worried about the news leaking out, so that’s why we invited you to go with us.”
True Lord Golden Crow added.
“Green Lotus Divine Forbidden! The Ten Ancient Forbidden!”
Shen Long raised his eyebrows, a thoughtful look on his face.
“Fellow Daoist Xu, Fellow Daoist Qin, it’s not that I can’t trust you guys, how can I be sure that what you’re saying is true?”
Shen Long questioned.
Who didn’t know that he was an alchemist, what if this was a set up!
“I’m willing to swear with my heart demon that I definitely don’t have half a word of falsehood, otherwise my cultivation will regress and I will not be allowed to die.”
Xu Mo swore with his heart demon on the spot and said with a straight face.
“Fellow Daoist Shen, everything we said is true, and after a long delay, that place might have been discovered by others.”
True Lord Golden Crow said sincerely.
“It’s fine if you want me to go, I want to know how you guys discovered that place.”
Shen Long said.
Xu Mo said one by one, they teamed up to hunt demonic beasts and discovered that place by chance, but at that time, their divine sense was too weak to be able to break the forbidden system, they looked around for elixirs to grow their divine sense to take, unfortunately, only Xu Mo’s divine sense was strong enough to transform into a form and attack, relying on Xu Mo alone, there was no way for him to open the forbidden system.
“Alright! I’ll run with you guys, but I need to make some preparations, how about we meet up at the exit of the marketplace after a tea time?”
Shen Long said.
“Fellow Daoist Shen, you won’t inform the others!”
Xu Mo frowned and said.
“Fellow Daoist Xu don’t worry, I won’t do that, I always have to prepare.”
Shen Long said.
“Alright! Then we’ll wait for you at the exit of the workshop.”
Xu Mo agreed, and with a spell, the golden curtain of light dispersed and transformed into a golden orb that landed in his hand.
They left Shen Long’s residence, and Shen Long walked into the practice room.
He entered the Tower of Ten Thousand Beasts and put the Golden-winged Wind Rocs and them into the Spirit Beast Bracelet before he retreated and sat in meditation for half a tea time before he walked out.
Shen Long came to the exit of the workshop market, met up with Xu Mo and Golden Crow True Lord, and the three of them left the workshop market.
