After returning to his residence, Li An was prepared for someone to come and snatch the purple soul grass.
He had already given Gu Hong a soul beast crystal core.
He still had two left.
But, to his surprise, the next few days were very quiet, and Luo Yong never came to his house again.
Is it because he was overthinking?
It's unlikely...
He decided to remain unchanged in the face of all changes and wait calmly.
Anyway, Luo Yong can no longer be trusted.
In the blink of an eye, half a month passed.
That day, Li An went out early in the morning and went to the Treasure Pavilion!
The Treasure Pavilion is very famous in the entire White Tiger City. It has everything from elixirs, skills, materials, talismans, etc. Moreover, it will hold auctions regularly to auction some precious items.
It is said that it has a great background and has deep roots in the entire Dali Dynasty. Even the White Tiger Mountain has to give it some face.
A few days ago, Li An had already paid the "deposit" for participating in the auction and obtained the qualification to participate in the auction. Under the guidance of the waiter, he quickly entered the auction venue and a box on the second floor.
This box is usually only available for free to "VIPs" with special status. Li An spent 500 spirit stones to rent this box.
Although it hurts, he has to spend it.
In the hall on the first floor, there is no shelter. If you buy something, it is easy to expose yourself.
Soon, the auction began.
A woman in a cheongsam walked to the center of the auction table. The formation in the auction hall guided the lights and gathered them all on the auction table.
It got dark all around.
"Welcome everyone, I am the auctioneer of this auction, Jiaru."
The woman introduced herself, "This auction starts now. The first exhibit to be auctioned today is a first-level top-grade magic weapon, the Mother-Child Heaven and Earth Sword..."
The auction started soon.
The first-grade high-quality magic weapon was just an appetizer. After some similar auction items, it finally came to the key link that everyone was paying attention to.
"The following exhibits are second-grade refining materials, Mantian Silver, a total of three kilograms, which can be used to make second-grade magic weapons!"
"The starting price is five hundred spirit stones, and each bid must not be less than one hundred spirit stones!"
As soon as the second-grade materials came out, the venue finally became lively.
"Six hundred spirit stones!"
"Eight hundred spirit stones!"
... The price climbed all the way and soon broke through the one thousand mark.
"One thousand four hundred spirit stones!"
A rough voice shouted a high price.
Almost all the bidders in the venue stopped.
This is almost the upper limit of the price. Unless you are a second-grade refiner, you will have to spend a lot of spirit stones to hire someone to refine it. The final price may be enough to buy a finished second-grade magic weapon, which is not very meaningful.
Moreover, many people have recognized the owner of this rough voice—Second-level weapon refiner Gao Jun, a famous weapon refiner in the city.
"One thousand five hundred spirit stones!"
But at this moment, a female voice suddenly sounded.
When this voice came out, Li An in the box was stunned for a moment.
He looked towards the source of the sound, it was pitch black, and he couldn't see the appearance of people.
But he was extremely sure...
This is...
Chen Qingling's voice? !
The other party is not dead?
He frowned.
Five years ago, after the battle of the Zhao family, he came directly to Baihu City, and did not go to Wang Dazhu and Chen Qingling for revenge, because he thought it was a waste of time.
Especially, Chen Qingling was poisoned by him and could not survive for more than three months.
Now, Chen Qingling actually appeared in the auction of Baihu City?
Did she have some adventure that delayed the onset of the poison in her body?
"One thousand six hundred spirit stones..."
Gao Jun continued to shout a price, but his words were already a little anxious.
"One thousand seven hundred!"
"One thousand eight hundred..."
"One thousand nine hundred!"
Chen Qingling's voice was calm and gentle, but sonorous and powerful.
"Okay, okay, okay, I, Gao, will give you this material!"
Gao Jun finally lost and spoke with some resentment.
Chen Qingling took the second-level material.
After that, many second-level talismans and second-level magic tools were auctioned, and the scene was very lively.
Li An watched silently and did not make a move.
"The next item to be auctioned is a second-level Yuanhun beast crystal core, which has a miraculous effect on nourishing the soul. Even if the method is right, it can allow Qi Refining Stage cultivators to condense their consciousness..."
The auctioneer continued to speak, and a crystal clear crystal core was immediately brought up. Li An took a look from a distance and found that the quality was much worse than the one in his hand.
It is definitely not the main material for the foundation-building pill.
"The starting price is two thousand spirit stones!"
When this price was announced, everyone in the venue was a little surprised.
It's too high!
You must know that even a treasure like the Foundation Building Pill has a market price of only about six thousand in Baihu City - this is the difficulty of being a casual cultivator. When Li An was in Xuanyang Sect before, the sect had abundant resources, low costs, and no shortage of alchemists, so buying Foundation Building Pills in the sect was almost half the price of buying them outside.
In comparison, although the Yuanhun Beast Crystal Core is also a rare material, its value is less than one-third of the Foundation Building Pill.
"Two thousand two hundred!"
In the second-floor box, a female voice sounded calmly.
Li An's heart trembled!
This is Xu Qiuhui...
She is actually buying the Yuanhun Beast Crystal Core?
Could it be that the powerful person who is collecting treasures to nourish the soul that Manman said is her?
Xu Qiuhui herself is only in the Foundation Building Stage, and she cannot have such a great demand for nourishing the soul.
She should be working for Baihu Mountain. As expected, no one participated in the auction.
Xu Qiuhui directly won it with 2,200 yuan.
"It seems that Zhenbao Pavilion has known for a long time that no one dares to compete with Xu Qiuhui, so the price is set relatively high to avoid losses..."
Li An's mind was clear.
"The next one to be auctioned is a second-grade fire spirit fruit. As everyone knows, this is one of the main ingredients of the foundation-building pill. The starting price is 800 spirit stones, and each bid must not be less than 100 spirit stones!"
The fire spirit fruit finally appeared.
"Nine hundred spirit stones!"
"One thousand spirit stones!"
"One thousand three hundred spirit stones!"
...
Finally, an old man shouted out one thousand six hundred spirit stones.
This price also hit the ceiling.
No one was willing to bid.
"One thousand eight hundred!"
And Chen Qingling's voice suddenly sounded again.
"One thousand...one thousand nine hundred!"
The old man shouted out another price unwillingly.
"Two thousand!"
Chen Qingling's voice was still extremely calm.
Obviously determined to win.
The old man sighed and stopped fighting.
In the private room on the second floor, Li An was thinking...
The second-grade fire spirit fruit should be prepared for Wang Dazhu, right?
After five years, he should have reached the threshold of foundation building.
As a second-grade weapon refiner, Wang Dazhu would naturally not be short of spirit stones.
"Two thousand once..."
"Two thousand twice..."
And the auctioneer was ready to strike the final hammer.
"Two thousand one."
Li An finally spoke, his voice hoarse.
...
