Chapter 131: Eight Treasures Linglong Ginseng
Out of the forest to which the Heaven-splitting Sword Sect belongs is the Four Seasons City.
Xiao Yi ran all the way, went directly to Baiwu City, and went to the Demon Hunting Hall.
Monster beasts above the third level generally have information in the Monster Hunting Hall, recording their attributes, degree of danger, and even where they appear.
These materials are free and anyone can access them.
After checking, Xiao Yi was about to leave after knowing the situation of these monsters.
However, on the task bar of the task office, there is a task of tracing people released by the Bai family, and it is Yi Xiao who is looking for it.
Xiao Yi's eyes lit up, thinking that it was news that the Bai family had Liubao Linglong Ginseng.
Leaving the Demon Hunting Hall, Xiao Yi found an unoccupied corner, changed into a strong suit, put on a ghost mask, and then returned to the Demon Hunting Hall again and took over the task.
To access the information, anyone can access it without showing a token, so Xiao Yi can read it as his own.
But to accept the task and view the task information, he must show the token, and he can only restore the identity of Yi Xiao.
The token of the Demon Hunting Hall records the aura of a warrior, and anyone can only have one piece.
Xiao Yi cannot apply for the second block.
Closer to home.
After taking over the mission, Xiao Yi glanced at the mission information. The Bai family's message was that he should wait in Baiwu City.
The staff of the task office also said at this time, "Yi Xiao, you have completed this task of tracing people, but there are no reward points; later, the staff of the Hunting Hall will go to Bai's house to inform the task that the task is over."
"Yeah." Xiao Yi nodded, then left the Demon Hunting Hall and found an inn at random to stay.
.....
After half a day.
Patriarch Bai, Steward Bai, and more than a dozen warriors from the Bai Family appeared in the inn.
"Patriarch Bai." Xiao Yi cupped his hands.
"Hehe, little brother Yi Xiao doesn't need to be more polite." Patriarch Bai said with a smile.
"Patriarch Bai." Xiao Yi said, "Yi still has important things to do, so let's just say it directly, what news can you have on Liubao Linglong Shen?"
"No." Patriarch Bai shook his head.
"No?" Xiao Yi was stunned, what did the Patriarch Bai send him to do?
"Haha." Patriarch Bai suddenly laughed and said, "There is no news about the Six Treasures Exquisite Ginseng, but..."
Patriarch Bai paused and said, "Eight Treasures Exquisite Ginseng, but there is news."
"Eight Treasures Exquisite Ginseng?" Xiao Yi was surprised.
The Eight Treasures Exquisite Ginseng is the same as the Six Treasures Exquisite Ginseng, but the effect is greater, the quality is higher, and it is more precious and rare.
The Eight Treasures Exquisite Ginseng can already be listed as a fifth-grade natural treasure.
"Where?" Xiao Yi asked.
"Don't worry." Patriarch Bai said with a smile, "In two days, there will be a grand auction in Baiwu City, which will be jointly held by two local business families and Saxo Trading."
"Eight Treasures Exquisite Ginseng is one of the auction items this time."
"You disappeared for two months. I thought you went to another city. I planned to buy it if you didn't show up in the next two days."
"Now that you have appeared, just in time, we can go to the auction together."
In this auction, the items are of such high quality that even the Bai family needs some items.
"Auction." Xiao Yi frowned.
Patriarch Bai could see what Xiao Yi was thinking, and said, "I know about you and the Murong family in Beishan. Several deacons of Shengbao Trading Company in Baiwu City are also looking for you."
"However, this is not the capital of the county after all. The power of the Saxo Bank is far inferior to that of our Bai family, so you can rest assured."
"Otherwise, if it's inconvenient for you, I'll buy it for you in the name of the Bai family. You don't have to go, just wait for us to come back at the inn."
Xiao Yi shook his head and said with a smile, "Thank you for the kindness of Patriarch Bai, and Yi also wants to see and experience, so let's go together."
.....
After two days,
Saxo Bank.
Xiao Yi followed the Bai family and his party to the VIP seat that had been prepared.
The auction this time is unprecedented, and ordinary people are not qualified to come.
Those who came were all famous warriors from dozens of cities near Baiwu City. Or the head of a certain family, or the city lord of a certain city, or a famous monster hunter, a lone warrior, etc.
There are only five VIP seats, and they belong to five major forces.
The Gu family in Baiwu City is also listed here.
A few hours later, guests came in droves, and the auction did not start until the auction was completely filled.
The auction has two floors.
On the first floor, there are ordinary guests, and there are hundreds of them connected to each other.
On the second floor, there are VIP seats, which are circular, with five VIP seats distributed in a circle.
In the middle, it is hollow.
Those in the VIP seats can directly view the auction items below from a condescending perspective.
"Guests."
At this time, an auctioneer appeared on the first floor, walked up to the auction table, and said loudly.
The martial artist relies on the infuriating energy in his body, which is enough to clearly spread his voice throughout the auction.
"First of all, on behalf of the auction, thank you for coming. Secondly, it is my honor to serve as an auctioneer today."
"You're welcome." On the first floor, a group of people said quickly, "It's too late to be happy to be able to participate in such a grand auction."
The other two business families jointly held this time are also quite powerful in Baiwu City, no less than the Gu family.
And this auctioneer is a deacon in one of the business families, so the guests are very polite.
"Okay, I won't talk nonsense anymore." The auctioneer said, "What you are most concerned about must be the auctioned items. This auction has officially started."
"The first auction item please."
After the auctioneer finished speaking, four strong men appeared with an object and placed it on the exhibition stand.
Then the four stood on the four sides, vigilantly guarding.
These four people are all three-level Dongxuan warriors; two belong to the Saxo Trading Company, and the other two are from a local business family.
These four people are responsible for protecting the safety of the auction items.
"This is a sub-spirit weapon, a three-earth puppet ball. After using it, three earth-attribute puppets can be released. They are good at defense and have an innate ninth-level strength."
The auctioneer's introduction is complete.
The guests on the first floor had their eyes lit up.
"Three soil puppet balls, the starting price is 80,000 taels, and each time the price increases, it must not be less than 5,000 taels."
After the auctioneer finished speaking, the guests had already bid.
"Eighty-five thousand taels."
"Nine thousand taels."
"..."
The VIP seats above did not move.
"Brother Yi Xiao, don't you want to take a picture? This thing is good, especially if you are a monster hunter who has been away for a long time, you can save your life if necessary." Bai Patriarch said.
Xiao Yi shook his head.
The strength of the puppet ball generally depends on the level of the refining pharmacist.
This three earth puppet ball, in terms of level, is the same as his own three fire puppet ball, but the strength of the puppet is far worse.
If his own three fire puppet balls are auctioned, the starting price should be at least 120,000 taels.
Below, the auction is fierce.
Not long after, it was auctioned by the owner of a large family for 110,000 taels.
Originally, this three-earth puppet ball should not be worth the price.
And this Patriarch, whose cultivation base is the first level of Dongxuan, cannot be used by himself. But there is a child in the family that he loves and will go abroad for training in the near future.
This thing, for low-level warriors, can save lives when necessary.
Then, it is normal for the owner to buy it at a high price.
"The second item," the auctioneer said.
Four strong men put a jade bottle on the exhibition stand.
"The inside of the bottle is Leihuo Dan, there are ten pills in total. The starting price of each pill is 10,000 taels, and each time the price increases, it must not be less than 10,000 taels."
Thunder Fire Pill, a third-grade peak medicinal pill; it is not difficult to refine, but the materials are extremely difficult to find.
It has the effect of quenching the body with thunder and fire, which can make the body of the warrior stronger; in addition, it has a huge medicinal power, and the warrior can greatly increase the training speed in one day.
The effect takes effect on all warriors below the half-step Dong Xuan.
All guests bid.
There was still no bid for the VIP seats above.
Xiao Yi is also not interested in this thing.
"The third item...."
"The fourth item..."
“…”
The items that were taken out were all rare items, but Xiao Yi had no interest.
It wasn't until the eighth item that Xiao Yi's eyes lit up.
The auctioneer introduced, "This is a book of wind-attribute Xuan-order peak martial arts, which was awarded to us for auction by a martial artist who did not want to disclose his name."
"The starting price is 100,000 taels, and each time the price increases, it must not be less than 10,000 taels."
"Everyone, you should seize the opportunity. The peak Xuanjie martial arts have not appeared at the auction for many years. If this martial artist is not in urgent need of silver taels, he will never sell them."
It has to be said that the auctioneer's auction method is still acceptable, which suddenly aroused the desire of the guests to buy.
Even in the VIP seats above, there are people who are just about to move.
"Little brother Yi Xiao, you didn't bid for eight items in a row. Could it be that you don't even look down on this peak mysterious martial skill?" asked Patriarch Bai.
Xiao Yi smiled bitterly and said, "It's not that I don't like it, it's just that I don't have the money to buy it."
His money should be kept to buy the Eight Treasures Delicate Ginseng, and naturally he will not waste it casually.
Moreover, the martial arts of the wind attribute are not very useful to him, and he already has electric light and flint.
Patriarch Bai didn't make any bids either. The Bai family itself had peak Xuan-rank martial arts, and they were not suitable for wind-type martial arts.
The auction below was extremely fierce, and it also brought the first climax to this auction.
In the end, this peak Xuanjie martial arts book was bought by a major force in the VIP seat for 250,000 taels.
"The ninth item..."
"The tenth..."
I have to say that in this auction, all kinds of auction items are extraordinary. Even if you don’t buy anything, you will gain a lot of knowledge.
"The eighteenth auction item is one of the final treasures of this auction."
The high-pitched voice of the auctioneer spread throughout the audience.
As the four strong men put the items on the exhibition stand, Xiao Yi suddenly cheered up.
That is the Eight Treasures Exquisite Ginseng.
