Chapter 453 – Xuan Cai Shi Appears
Chapter 453 – Xuan Cai Shi Appears
This was because as far as Huang Wenyu knew, the Star Elemental Immortal Cultivation Realm hadn’t encountered any threats from outside the realm in these thousands of years.
The development of the entire Immortal Cultivation Realm had also tended to develop in a relatively smooth manner.
Aside from the fact that their Ascension Stage was broken, and that the Spirit Transformation Cultivators were unable to ascend normally, there wasn’t anything too troublesome.
Of course.
What shocked Huang Wenyu the most was still the cultivation level of Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan today.
The couple, surprisingly, had all broken through to the Spirit Transformation Realm.
This also made him finally understand why the two would react in that manner during the Dao Discussion Assembly.
Just kidding.
A bunch of elementary school students came in with two doctors, watching them discussing the so-called academics and trading the so-called treasures in a heated manner, it would be strange that they would be excited about it.
After a long time.
Huang Wenyu looked at the pattern drawn by Jiang Chengxuan and the others.
That, was precisely the pattern of the Xuan Color Stone and the Flying Sky Crystal. The
Couldn’t help but frown deeply.
A few moments later.
He couldn’t help but gently shake his head and said, ”This Xuan Cai Shi and Flying Sky Crystal, I’ve really never seen or heard of them before in the Western Sea Merchant Alliance for so many years.
However, after this time, I will intensify my attention to these two items.
Once there is any news, I will notify you at the first opportunity.”
“Good.”
For Huang Wenyu not having seen these two things, Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan’s hearts had long been prepared.
Right now, being able to have such a channel as Huang Wenyu was more or less a point of help in their search for that Xuan Cai Shi and Fei Tian Crystal.
“Right ……”
Right at this moment, Huang Wenyu suddenly seemed to think of something and couldn’t help but say to Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan:
“In a while, Moonlight City will organize a large-scale auction, this news, you all should have heard about it, right?”
“Uh, what’s the problem?”
Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan nodded.
Then he heard Huang Wenyu say, “According to the information I’ve gotten from my internal prying, it seems that the scale of this auction will be expanded from the original.
The forces responsible for hosting this auction have also increased from the original two, the Long Sky Holy Land and the Traceless Holy Land, to four.
The other two extra ones were the Xu Family Holy Land from the Gu Ming Prefecture, and the Blue Sea Holy Land from the Jade River Prefecture.
In this case, when the time comes, we might be able to go over and take a look.
After all, the XuanCai Stone and the Flying Sky Crystal are both special materials, not of the regular grade, so there might be some surprises.
What do you guys think? “
Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan both nodded.
“Although I don’t think that there can be any real gains in a place like an auction.
But hearing you say that, that’s more or less an opportunity, so there’s no harm in going over together to take a look.”
Several months later.
Jiang Chengxuan, Shen Ruyan, and Huang Wenyu had already arrived in Moonlight City.
This was the only Immortal City within the entire Tian Cang Prefecture that was jointly ruled by the Long Sky Sacred Land and the Traceless Sacred Land, and it was also one of the largest Immortal Cities in Tian Cang Prefecture.
The city was surrounded by spiritual light, and the bright moonlight sprinkled dots of silver gray in the sky above the Immortal City, setting off the entire Moonlight City as if it were a dream.
Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan walked in it.
Even they had to marvel at this.
This Moonlight City was indeed considered a mega-sized immortal city.
The scale and flow of people in it, as well as the corresponding facilities, were not often seen even in their Nine Yuan Immortal Cultivation World.
By the time their group, walked into the auction venue held in this Moonlight City this time, they found that the number of cultivators who had come here was simply so many that it had reached a terrifying level.
With a cursory scan, there were no less than a hundred YuanYing cultivators.
As for the Jindan, Zifu, and Zhuji underneath, it was even more difficult to count.
Moreover, as time goes on, the number of people coming into this auction is still increasing.
Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan, even have felt, in this auction in which a few corners, actually has a number of beyond the YuanYing level of breath.
Other people present may not be able to detect it, but as a Great Heavenly Monarch of the late stage of Goddess of Transformation, Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan detected it almost at the first moment they entered here.
By the time the three of them sat down in their respective seats, within a certain private room that was farther away from them.
A middle-aged man sitting at the top of the table suddenly just frowned slightly.
He turned his head to look at an old man in white beside him and said:
“Senior Brother Yang, just now, did you detect something?”
When the white-clothed old man he called Senior Brother Yang heard this, a faint smile could not help but spread across his face as he shook his head and said:
“This is not true.
But even if you really sensed something, I think it should be the other ones who have arrived, there’s no need to be too concerned at the moment.”
“That’s true.”
The middle-aged man couldn’t help but nod in agreement when he heard this.
And a similar scene appeared in the remaining few boxes of the auction at this time.
Just like this, time passed bit by bit.
About a few days later, with the sound of a bell with an extremely strong penetrating power.
The entire auction venue shut down at once.
At the same time, a YuanYing female cultivator with a graceful figure and a captivating appearance, was clearly floating down slowly from the heights.
This woman was precisely the host responsible for hosting the first session of the auction, a female cultivator with a mid YuanYing stage, named Tianqing Fairy, from the Long Sky Holy Land.
Yes.
This auction, because of the addition of the Xu Family Holy Land and the Blue Sea Holy Land.
So.
The entire auction, in total, would be divided into four sessions.
For each field, it would be held by a YuanYing cultivator from each family.
The Tianqing Fairy in front of her was the host responsible for presiding over the first session.
At this moment, her beautiful eyes looked at everyone present, and her face could not help but bring up a hint of a smile as she spoke:
“Welcome to all the friends who have come here to participate in my Moonlight City Auction, here in the Long Hollow Holy Land Tian Qing Zi, this first auction, is hosted by me.
Now, I officially announce, this Moonlight City Auction, the first, officially begin!”
Wow…
As Tian Qing Zi’s words fell, above the high platform she was on, an extremely splendid pillar of light suddenly fell in the air.
That pillar of light fell straight onto the auction stage in front of her.
When the pillar of light dispersed, a palm-sized jade bottle appeared inside.
Just then, she heard Immortal Tian Qing smile and say, “The first lot of this auction is the Infant Formation Pill provided by my Long Sky Sacred Land.”
“Infant Formation Pill?”
Upon hearing this name, the spirits of all the Jindan cultivators present could not help but be shaken.
Obviously, none of them had expected that the first lot of this auction would result in such a treasure as the Infant Formation Pill.
For a time, many people’s faces couldn’t help but show a look of excitement.
Only to hear Immortal Tian Qing continue to laugh, “The starting price of the Infant Formation Dan is ten thousand top-grade spirit stones, and each time the price is raised, it shall not be less than one thousand spirit stones.”
“Twenty thousand upper grade spirit stones!”
“Fifty thousand upper grade spirit stones!”
……
Soon, the price about that Infant Formation Pill was going all the way up.
Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan looked at it slightly and lost much interest.
Including some of the next lots, they also failed to attract their attention.
Just like this, time passed little by little.
When the third auction began, and a YuanYing cultivator from the Xu Clan’s Holy Land came onto the stage and took out a piece of colorful stone the size of a basketball, Jiang ChengXuan and Shen RuYin, who were still looking casual, suddenly had their complexions shaken fiercely.
Both of their hearts were somewhat shocked.
They truly hadn’t expected to actually see what they needed at this kind of auction.
The Xuan Color Stone.
That was clearly the very Xuan Cai Shi they were looking for!
And that size, it was more than twice as big as what they needed.
“Ladies and gentlemen, I will be the one to preside over the third auction.”
At this time, that Xu Clan YuanYing cultivator was already lifting his hand to pick up that piece of XuanCai stone.
“This item was obtained by chance by my Xu Family cultivator, in a secret realm, possessing very powerful mana conductivity, and is an excellent material for refining magic treasures, and even true treasures.
This item does not have an exact name yet, but I am willing to call it the Refined Gemstone.
If you are interested in refining an excellent life magic treasure, or a true treasure, you may want to consider bidding on this treasure.
The starting price for this treasure is ten thousand upper-grade spirit stones, and each increase in price shall not be less than one thousand upper-grade spirit stones.”
As soon as the Xu Clan cultivator’s words fell, one after another, there were some cultivators present who began to place bids.
“Twenty thousand Upper Grade Spirit Stones!”
“Thirty thousand top-grade spirit stones!”
“Forty thousand top-grade spirit stones!”
……
Obviously, everyone was not particularly interested in this kind of treasure that had never appeared in the past, although there was so much interest.
By the time that price, was raised to seventy thousand Upper Grade Spirit Stones, there weren’t many people bidding anymore.
But it was at this point that Jiang Chengxuan’s voice suddenly sounded.
“One hundred thousand upper-grade spirit stones!”
Upon hearing this voice, the people who were still raising the price bit by bit immediately stopped their quotes.
However, the Xu Clan cultivator located on that auction platform frowned slightly.
Only to hear him speak once again, ”One hundred thousand upper-grade spirit stones, there is already a Daoist friend who has offered that price to one hundred thousand upper-grade spirit stones.
Next, is there anyone else, who wants to bid higher than that?”
No one spoke.
This instantly caused a smile to unconsciously spread across Jiang Chengxuan’s face.
Just now, he was even prepared to hemorrhage money.
However, it now seemed that he appeared to have been overly concerned.
Thinking about it.
For an item like that, which no one else had seen much of, to be auctioned off at this price nowadays was actually already very good.
It seemed that obtaining that Xuan Cai Shi by himself was now a sure thing.
However, what made Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan’s brows suddenly furrowed was that the Xu Family cultivator on the auction stage, seeing that no one was willing to continue bidding, even directly rushed to a cultivator not far from the stage to make a wink.
That cultivator will understand, without saying anything, immediately voiced out:
“One hundred and twenty thousand top-grade spirit stones!
I’ll bid 120,000 top-grade spirit stones!”
Hearing that person’s voice, Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan’s faces, immediately turned gloomy.
The movements of that Xu Clan cultivator just now, if they were ordinary people, they might not have discovered them.
Even a great cultivator of the late YuanYing stage might not be able to detect his seemingly subconscious movements.
However, how could such a thing be hidden from Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan, who were at the late stage of God Transformation?
Right now, the only thing they couldn’t be sure of was whether the other party was doing this because they wanted to use the opportunity to earn some more spirit stones, or whether they had ulterior motives.
Or perhaps, that Xuan color stone was purely a fish bait.
But no matter if it is fish bait or not, you want to take the opportunity to earn some more spirit stones as well.
Since you have already taken out that Xuan Cai Shi, there is no reason to take it back.
At that moment, he heard Jiang Chengxuan directly say:
“One hundred and fifty thousand top grade spirit stones!”
Upon hearing Jiang Chengxuan quote a price of 150,000 top-grade spirit stones, the spirit of the Xu Family cultivators on the auction platform was immediately shaken.
The next moment, he couldn’t help but open his mouth even more vigorously:
“One hundred and fifty thousand upper-grade spirit stones, that fellow Daoist just now, he has already bid one hundred and fifty thousand upper-grade spirit stones, is there anyone else who wants to bid higher than that?”
“Two hundred thousand upper grade spirit stones!”
Soon after, a hawk-nosed man who had just opened his mouth to make an offer, also made a bid at this time.
This couldn’t help but make the Xu Clan cultivator on that stage even more excited.
His gaze, too, was frequently looking towards Jiang Chengxuan and their side.
At this moment, even Huang Wenyu, who was on their side, sensed that something was wrong.
“Fellow Daoist Jiang, the situation doesn’t seem quite right.”
“Hmm.”
Jiang Chengxuan nodded.
“It’s true that something isn’t quite right, but so what?
Since they’ve already taken the item out, then I don’t care what their intentions are, they’ll never want to take it back.”
As the words came to this point, on his face, a cold smile instantly appeared.
Then he heard him speak again, “I’ll offer one million top grade spirit stones!”
“What?”
As Jiang Chengxuan’s words fell, a look of shock unconsciously appeared on the faces of many people present.
A million top-grade spirit stones, what was that concept?
If this was converted into ordinary spirit stones, it would be a whole billion dollars.
What kind of person was it that was so generous?
Originally, everyone thought that a thing like that, out to 100,000 to 200,000 top-grade spirit stones, would already be very exaggerated.
But did not want to, actually someone will be the price, to directly raised to a million top grade spirit stone.
At this moment, even the Xu Clan cultivator on the auction stage was a bit stunned.
Obviously, he didn’t expect that the other party would actually bid that hard.
The moment he opened his mouth, it was one million top-grade spirit stones.
If they were to let their people continue to follow the bidding, then as long as one was a discerning person, I’m afraid that they would all be able to see that the situation was unusual.
However, before coming here, the old ancestor of the family had already urged, that refining gemstone, is specially used to test the use of.
No matter what, it can’t really be auctioned off to someone else.
Damn!
What should we do now?
For a moment, a cold sweat involuntarily broke out on the forehead of that Xu Clan cultivator who was in charge of presiding over the auction.
Inside the box from earlier.
The white-clothed old man looked at the situation below and couldn’t help but sneer as he said to the middle-aged man next to him:
“Senior Yao, after so many years have passed, I can’t imagine that that Xu Clan, actually remains the same as before, hasn’t changed at all.
Taking something they don’t know about, coming to the auction to fish, and then doing something unseemly afterwards.
It’s because of them that the reputation of these holy grounds of ours has been dragged down by them.”
As the words came to this point, the white-clothed old man faintly said:
“Let’s forget about it this time, next time, no matter what, we, the Long Hollow Holy Land, must never cooperate with them, the Xu Family, in this regard again.”
