Mortal Mage

Chapter 118 Auction Conference

In Xianzhou City, on the south city street, there are buildings and pavilions on both sides. These houses belong to the sects that raised funds to build the city. They are also resting places for the disciples of the six major sects.

Other independent cultivators or disciples of small sects can only choose the guest rooms in the restaurant.

Nancheng Street, at the end of the road, is also the core location of Feizhou Fairy City. It is blocked by an octagonal red fairy wood structure attic with carved beams and painted rafters.

There was a plaque emitting fairy mist hanging under the attic, and on the plaque were three large characters painted: "A Whale in the Blue Sea."

Zuixianlou

There are multi-story attics in Zuixian Tower, decorated with silk, colored glaze and jade.

Each floor is decorated with exquisite fairy artifacts and rare treasures, and each private room is equipped with an exquisite fairyland painting.

In the center of the hall on the first floor, there is a stage covered with a bright red carpet.

Under the stage, many monks were already seated at the round table.

"Sister, what are we doing here?"

Li Xucheng followed Hua Yu, and the two of them sat down in an empty seat in the corner.

"This is the auction of Xianzhou City, held once a year for seven consecutive days. This is the main auction venue, and it is grand in scale." Hua Yu held her lower abdomen with one hand, picked up the spiritual tea on the table with the other hand and drank two big gulps, and continued to speak to Li Xucheng; "In addition, there are special auctions for gold, wood, water, fire, earth, ice, wind, thunder, heaven, earth, yin, and yang, which are held in branch venues on other floors. I am now in the middle stage of foundation building, but I have nothing else to defend myself except a flying sword of the sect. I will take this opportunity to see if I can find a fire-type magic weapon."

"I didn't expect that this flying boat fairy city can not only entertain and relieve boredom, but also allow you to float around in the house, enjoy the scenery, and see the beautiful scenery. Today is an eye-opener."

Li Xucheng stroked his beard and looked in amazement at the many monks, various jewels, artifacts, and gorgeous decorations in the hall.

He was the Minister of War of the Taicang Empire, but at this moment he acted like a bumpkin.

"Other venues should have already started auctioning. You can go to the Five Elements Spiritual Roots special auction to see what items are being auctioned. Even if you can't afford them, it will be a great experience."

Hua Yu stared at the empty stage and said to Li Xucheng.

"Well, Senior Sister, I will just walk around the venue on my own and come find you later."

Li Xucheng lifted his butt off the wooden chair and responded to Hua Yu with a happy look on his face.

Hua Yu waved her hand and continued to drink the spiritual tea and rub her stomach.

On the second floor of Zuixianlou, there is a wooden sign hanging on the door of a lobby.

"Five Elements Spiritual Roots ● Dry System Auction Special"

In the lobby, on a platform covered with red carpet, there was a table covered with red cloth, in front of which sat an old Taoist priest wrapped in green robes and with a face full of stubble.

The old Taoist knocked the wooden hammer, and with a sleepy look, he glanced at the people below the stage and announced, "The first lot is the second-level Root Purifying Liquid."

After he finished speaking, he picked up a piece of rice paper on the table and read from the paper, "The second-level root-purifying liquid is a precious elixir. This liquid is made by refining a variety of natural treasures, especially those spiritual herbs with roots, and blended by skilled alchemists. The main function of the root-purifying liquid is to strengthen the water and wood spiritual roots among the five elements of spiritual roots, purify the impurities in the spiritual roots, and make the five elements of spiritual roots more efficient when practicing water and wood techniques. Compared with the first-level root-purifying liquid, the second-level root-purifying liquid has a more significant effect. In addition to purifying the spiritual roots, it can also accelerate the progress of practice. Not only that, it also has a certain body protection effect, which can enhance the physique and vitality."

"Ah! Pah! Pah!"

"Get lost! Take it down! Are you throwing all that garbage into the venue? The second-level root-purifying liquid is sold in barrels in the market."

"Next!"

Many monks in the audience shouted at the old Taoist on the stage.

The old Taoist simply ignored the people below the stage. Instead, he squinted his eyes and took out a round white bottle with a long and thin mouth and a crystal clear body from the storage bag on the table.

The old Taoist held up the jade screen with his two fingers, and the white jade bottle floated in the air from his hands and slowly drifted over the heads of the crowd.

The old Taoist flipped his fingers slightly, and with a crisp "吥" sound, the wooden stopper wrapped in white cloth in the mouth of the jade bottle came out, and then a cool herbal fragrance filled the room.

The palm-sized jade screen was slightly tilted above everyone's heads.

Everyone used their spiritual sense to check the contents of the bottle.

Inside the jade screen, there was a bottle full of crystal clear amber liquid.

"This is! The extremely pure second-level root-purifying liquid!"

"This is not the kind of stuff sold in the market that is diluted with water!"

"Tell me the price!"

"Ahem, be quiet! If you make any more noise, you will be kicked out of the venue!"

The old Taoist narrowed his eyes and did not move his mouth, but the voice sounded in everyone's mind at the same time.

Everyone stared at the jade screen, and at the same time, a sudden voice rang in their minds. After looking at each other, everyone's face turned pale.

In the entire Five Elements Spiritual Roots Auction Hall, hundreds of people were informed at the same time.

The old Taoist sitting on the stage is at least a Jindan stage cultivator.

They had just yelled at a Jindan-stage cultivator. At this moment, the people in the front row who were yelling had flushed red in the face and were silent.

"Second level Root Purifying Liquid, starting price: 100 low-grade spirit stones. Each bid must not be less than one low-grade spirit stone."

"One hundred and one!"

"One hundred and two!"

"I'll offer one hundred and three!"

Below the stage, the sounds of bidding rose and fell. The old Taoist priest on the stage was lying on the table, already fast asleep.

"Master, please let me pass."

Li Xucheng leaned sideways, stood on tiptoe, and leaned forward.

The jade screen was suspended above everyone's heads, motionless.

-

Zuixianlou, first floor lobby.

"Go back to the guest room early."

Yun Yun narrowed her eyes and smiled at Zhang Mingxuan; "I'll wait for you."

Zhang Mingxuan shuddered for no reason. For more than half a month, he had been fortune-telling day and night, traveling around and working hard. A young man of seventeen or eighteen years old, his waist and knees were weak from the hard work. Every time he thought of the room number of Tianzi No. 2, he felt backache.

How could a mortal like him match the energy of a monk?

"decide as things go……"

Zhang Mingxuan responded reluctantly and turned to leave.

He and Yuyun already had a general idea of ​​what was going on. The main venue was filled with high-level magical instruments, talismans, and magical beast elixirs.

Even if there were advanced magical instruments and treasures at the main venue, he had no skills at the moment and would not be able to control them even if he bought them.

Therefore, he wanted to go to the special section for miscellaneous spiritual roots to see if there were any elixirs, spiritual herbs, or manuals on martial arts that were suitable for him, to quickly help him improve his cultivation.

"If you dare to come back to your room late, I will let you know what it means to live a life worse than death."

Yanyun had a cold look on her face, but there was a hint of charm in the corners of her eyes.

She glanced around and found that many seats were occupied. Only a woman in green who was rubbing her belly and drinking tea in the corner occupied a large round table. She sat aside and smiled at Zhang Mingxuan flatteringly. "Remember to buy yourself some more supplements."

Hua Yu rubbed her belly, glanced at the charming young woman in a tuxedo beside her, then glanced at the handsome young man of about seventeen or eighteen years old, picked up the tea and muttered in a low voice, "The good cabbages are eaten by pigs."
