Longevity starts with choosing Hextech enhancement

Chapter 252: What are you fighting for? I'll buy them all for you.

No one could have imagined that someone would continue to compete at such a high premium.

"Well, then I'll add 10,000 spirit stones."

The ancestor of the Yi family immediately raised the price, while paying close attention to the sounds around him.

"Oh, how come a great Nascent Soul Patriarch only added 10,000 spirit stones? It seems that the Yi family is really in trouble."

The sinister voice continued: "I'll add another thousand!"

Xiao Chen immediately determined from the voice that the other party came from Box B 26, which was right next to his.

It's just that the other person seemed to be deliberately speaking in a low voice, and it was difficult to tell whether the speaker was a man or a woman just by listening.

Even the tones before and after are different, making it impossible to guess the approximate age range.

More importantly, he only added one thousand spirit stones again.

With the undisguised provocation in his words, it seemed more like he was targeting the Yi family directly rather than participating in the bidding.

Although the wandering cultivators on the first floor did not say anything, they were looking around frantically.

When everyone exchanged glances, they all understood each other's surprise.

Many casual cultivators wanted to watch the fun, but they didn't show it.

But what is foreseeable is that no matter what the final result is.

The news that someone provoked the Yi family today was bound to spread.

In each box on the second floor, the Jindan cultivators and even the Yuanying Zhenjun who came to participate in the auction also looked towards Box No. 26.

Especially someone like Yunfeng Zhenjun who has witnessed many ups and downs and is an experienced immortal master.

I immediately smelled an unusual scent.

I'm afraid today's matter won't end well, but that's not the key point.

The key point is who attacked the Yi family and what was their purpose?
Logically speaking, whether it is inside the Cangming Immortal Sect or in its surroundings.

There is no other True Lord who is close in age to the Yi family's ancestor, so they need to fight for this time difference of less than ten years.

Even if you have any plans, just go home and retreat.

I'll come out and execute it after ten years.

For beings like them, ten years is not a long time, so why bother to mess with a dying person.

"I will offer 1.1 million spirit stones."

Some people outside were already considering the follow-up, but the ancestor of the Yi family continued to bid.

However, he simply made an offer and did not take the initiative to respond to the other party's words.

Xiao Chen had faced bidding twice before, but he did not say anything and chose to raise the price directly.

However, their starting points are different.

The reason why Xiao Chen did this was because he was very confident in his financial resources.

Just add 100,000 spirit stones right away, and if that’s not enough, add another 100,000, and this will naturally make the other party shut up.

By doing this, the ancestor of the Yi family was showing a high attitude, revealing disdain and contempt.

A giant will not care about the insult of an ant, it is just like the breeze blowing on the hills.

"Don't dare to admit it, ha ha ha, I'll add another thousand."

"1.2 million!"

The ancestor of the Yi family opened his mouth and raised another 100,000 spirit stones.

"Wow, I didn't expect the Yi family to be so rich?"

The sinister voice said something surprising, but there was no trace of surprise in the tone: "I'll add another thousand!"

"No matter how much you offer, I'll add a thousand!"

As soon as these words were spoken, the entire auction hall became agitated.

This is no longer just sarcasm, but a blatant attack on the Yi family.

Regardless of whether the two parties had any relationship before, they are bound to become enemies today.

Although almost no one knows the identity of the monk in Box 26 at the moment.

But Xiao Chen could guess that such a thing would most likely not be kept secret.

In fact, the second manager of Feiye Chamber of Commerce, Canye Zhenjun, had already ordered an investigation into who took the box token of B 26.

The investigation results have been reported back now.

However, according to feedback from people below, the person with the token was an independent alchemist who had just sent in a bid for a few third-level elixirs the day before the auction began.

Not only did he wear a hat before coming here today, he didn't take it off after entering the box.

Now, firstly, there is no way to confirm the other party's background, and secondly, we don't know whether the person has been replaced.

"Ahem, one million three hundred thousand."

The ancestor of the Yi family still ignored him and quietly raised the price.

"Add a thousand!"

However, the other party was not dissuaded as before, but continued to bid, while still mocking him.

This was repeated several times.

This fourth-grade longevity elixir was actually raised to 1.9 million.

I don’t know who the original owner of the pill was, I can only say that I made a lot of money this time.

"Hey, little girl, why don't you know how to bid now?"

After a brief silence, the voice urged.

Luo Hanxiang below was obviously not hot, but she was sweating profusely.

Logically speaking, after accepting the bid, she should have started bidding, but the problem was that something was clearly wrong.

Just when she was struggling with the issue, the ancestor of the Yi family spoke.

"This elixir is very important to me. I hope you can help me."

After realizing that raising the price would not solve the problem, he finally agreed to speak up: "There's a saying that goes, 'Leave a way out when you do things, so that we can meet again in the future.'"

"Today, fellow Daoist took a step back, and the Yi family is deeply grateful."

"I'll offer 1.91 million spirit stones."

However, this time it was the other party's turn to remain silent: "Add another thousand!"

“Cough, cough!”

The Yi family ancestor coughed twice in succession and said: "Daoyou, you must leave room for maneuver in everything and don't be too aggressive."

"Two million spiritual stones!"

He seemed to feel that this was not enough, so he added: "Let me give you one last warning: a dead tree can still ignite a spark, and the setting sun can still illuminate the rivers and seas."

"That's all I have to say. Please respect yourself!"

When he said the last sentence, even the powerful pressure of Yuanying Zhenjun broke through the barrier of the formation and leaked out, but it was immediately restrained.

Despite this, many monks on the first floor felt upset.

It felt like being suddenly pressed down by a heavy object.

"Oh, there seems to be something behind this!"

The voice instantly became excited: "I was actually threatened by a Yuanying Zhenjun. I'm really scared."

He deliberately prolonged the last four words.

Then he asked pretentiously, "Originally, an auction is supposed to be a place for bidding, but I didn't expect to be threatened?"

"Is there anyone who can come out to seek justice?"

"If I continue bidding, I won't be killed on the spot, right?"

This question is directed at the Feiye Chamber of Commerce and Yuntao Sword House, which are hosting the auction.

Zhenjun Canye, who was sitting in the back, frowned. He didn't want to show up but he couldn't retreat.

Fortunately, Master Dielang who was standing nearby had much fewer concerns.

He immediately responded loudly, "On behalf of Yuntao Sword Pavilion, I guarantee everyone that no one on Tinglang Island is allowed to engage in combat during the auction."

This statement adds two restrictions, both time and place.

To put it bluntly, if some time passes or if you leave Tinglang Island, naturally no one will be responsible for other people's safety.
.
"Then I'm relieved. Two million and one thousand!"

The other party seemed not to have heard the restrictions mentioned by Master Dielang and still added a thousand spirit stones.

Or maybe he didn't care about this from the beginning, and was just taking advantage of the situation to respond to the pressure from the Yi family's ancestor just now.

There was another moment of silence.

In fact, it was only half a quarter of an hour in total, but it felt as long as a year.

Luo Hanxiang was so nervous that she should have bid a price long ago, but she didn't dare to urge others to bid, for fear of attracting their anger.

"Ahem, I give up the bidding."

The ancestor of the Yi family finally expressed his opinion.

He only brought two million spirit stones this time, no more.

Of course, if he asked to borrow, the representatives of the Cangming Immortal Sect would definitely be generous.

In addition, as a distinguished guest in the Class A box, he naturally also has the quota provided by the Feiye Chamber of Commerce, and it is even higher.

However, the ancestor of the Yi family neither borrowed money nor withdrew the credit limit, but chose to give up directly.

After all, there are more ways to obtain the elixir than just winning the auction.

As this elixir finally found its owner, the next spiritual object was also brought up.

Finally, some whispers began to be heard in the hall below.

"I really didn't expect it to turn out like this."

"Brother Zhang, I won't stay any longer after the auction is over. I have something to do at home and need to go back."

"This should be the highest price of this auction. I didn't expect it to be a fourth-level life-extending elixir."

"Of course, the price of the following items will not exceed this."

……

What everyone said was rather obscure, but they all knew what was going on.

Several items were sold at high prices of hundreds of thousands of spirit stones, but everyone's attention was still on the previous elixir.

"Next, there are the last three lots!"

Luo Hanxiang had calmed down a lot now. After all, what happened just now had nothing to do with her.

So he continued to sell it vigorously: "This item itself is not a spiritual object, but it is of infinite value."

"Maybe some of you already know that the Cang Ran Secret Realm is about to open again."

"That's right. The item we are auctioning today is a Cang Ran Secret Token, which is essential for entering the secret realm."

As she spoke, she raised her hands high and held up a jade plaque that was emitting a spiritual glow and engraved with a large number of mysterious patterns.

There was immediate discussion below.

"So this is what Cang Ran's secret commander looks like. Today really opened my eyes."

"I heard that there are ancient sacred trees growing in the Cang Ran Secret Realm, which are very helpful for comprehending the Great Way of Wood. Unfortunately, I definitely can't afford to buy a token."

"Alas, I am also a cultivator with wood spiritual roots. I hope I can visit the Cangran Secret Realm once in this life."

"Not only that, I heard that every time a cultivator obtains Dao Crystal in the secret realm, they are all of the wood element."

……

Oh?
Originally, Xiao Chen was not interested, but when he heard about the Yundao crystal, he immediately became interested.

Although he usually uses fire magic, refines flying swords, and uses ice needles, he is ultimately a cultivator with wood spiritual roots.

In the future, after the baby is formed, there is a high probability that he will comprehend the Great Way of Wood, if Hextech does not interfere.

"The starting price for this item is 300,000 Spiritual Stones!"

After deliberately waiting for a while and confirming that everyone knew the function of Cangran's secret order, Luo Hanxiang announced the price.

At this point, there are not many monks bidding against each other.

After a few breaths, it stopped at 410,000 spirit stones.

"I'll give you 500,000 spirit stones!"

After they had almost finished shouting, Xiao Chen calmly entered the arena and directly intercepted the offer. The cultivator who had previously taken the lead said, "Add 50,000 spirit stones. I'll offer 550,000 spirit stones."

Xiao Chen followed closely behind: "Six hundred thousand!"

As soon as the words fell, there was an exclamation from below.

"Wow, it's him again!"

"This is really strange. All the major sects have already shown up, so which sect's genius is in Box B 24?"

The reason why some people say this is because during the auction, other monks will naturally communicate.

Especially in some competitive scenes, the monks in the box would reveal their identities and compromise with each other.

For some items that are not necessary to get, people give each other face and maintain a special tacit understanding.

If you give me this item, I will give you the next one, which will reduce the expenses for both parties.

As long as you don't go too far, the organizers will generally turn a blind eye.

However, as the major forces near Tingtao Sea revealed their identities one after another, the independent cultivators below became even more curious about where Xiao Chen came from.

"Sixty-one, no, six hundred and sixty thousand!"

Box B5 called out the new price and then said, "This token is very important to my nephew. I hope you can help me."

Master Canye raised his eyebrows, this was too obvious a collusion.

But the other party raised the price to 660,000 and did not deliberately lower the price, so he just pretended not to hear it.

"Seven hundred thousand!"

Xiao Chen silently quoted the price.

One of the casual cultivators did some mental calculations and exclaimed, "Oh my God! He's already spent 1.5 million spirit stones, and he still has so much money!"

The monk next to him also immediately reacted: "If we add another 700,000, wouldn't it be more than 2 million?"

This seemed to be hinting at the Yi family, but no one else responded.

But everyone noticed this and was secretly shocked.

But the difference is that Master Kaiyue, Pili Gun and others were not only shocked.

Many different speculations appeared in my mind again.

For example, Master Qingluan who failed to snatch the Four Seasons Frost Fruit before.

At this time, he was a little indignant: "Humph, squandering the elders' spirit stones just to show off, I think he is just another playboy."

Of course, he only said this in the box and did not shout it out.

However, the independent cultivators below had already become jealous.

True Man Qingluan also heard some casual cultivators saying sarcastic words, so he whispered something along those lines.

However, the Thunderbolt Spear next to him had different ideas. He reminded him, "Junior Brother, it will take the sect several years to accumulate so many spirit stones."

True Man Qingluan was stunned for a moment, then asked, "Brother, which two families do you mean he came from?"

The so-called "two schools" refer to the newly emerged Zhaokong School and Chongzhen School.

Thunderbolt Spear shook his head: "Fifty percent chance. I heard recently that descendants of the Nongyan Sect have appeared in the west. The situation is becoming increasingly complicated."

"So it may not be those two families, but it must be from those hidden sects."

"Anyway, he can come up with so many spirit stones, so he is definitely not a casual cultivator."

Qingluan Zhenren suddenly realized: "So they probably want to make a name for themselves at the auction."

He asked why the other party raised the price so crazily.

Recalling the Four Seasons Frost Fruit, he curled his lips again and muttered, "Hmph, anyway, it's all about relying on someone behind you."

There are actually quite a few similar ideas.

No one would think that someone who could come up with two million spirit stones and was richer than the ancestor of the Yi family would be a casual cultivator.

Yunfeng Zhenjun in the No. 1 box also thought so.

He also thought of the hidden Taoist sect, and thought more about it, believing that Xiao Chen might be related to the Qianyuan Sect, which has been unusually active recently.
.
With the high price of 700,000 spirit stones, Xiao Chen successfully obtained Cang Ran's secret order.

But at this moment he was thinking secretly: The things are almost sold out, why is there still no Chi Yuelu?

Could it be that it was intercepted halfway?

Fortunately, Luo Hanxiang brought up a Qinghua porcelain vase in time: "Everyone, the next spiritual object is also related to the secret realm."

"It came from the Guiyun Secret Realm that just ended not long ago, the so-called..."

"After double inspection, this is a complete bottle of Red Moon Dew..."

After explaining it in detail, she announced, "In summary, the starting price is set at 800,000 spirit stones."

Hearing such a high starting price, the attention of the casual cultivators below was immediately drawn.

"Oh my god, the starting price is so high?"

"Oh, even if I add up my entire life, I might not be able to earn 800,000 spirit stones."

"Fellow Daoist Zhang is wrong. Even if I add my next life, it won't be enough."

……

Although independent cultivators cannot afford it, large sects can certainly afford it.

Someone immediately called out, "I'll pay one million spirit stones!"

As expected, it caused a burst of exclamations.

"One million and two hundred thousand spirit stones!"

"Add another 100,000 spirit stones!"

"I'll offer 1.3 million spirit stones!"

"Two million."

"I'll give you a hundred... huh?"

In Box No. 7, someone was halfway through his speech when he suddenly felt something was wrong. It seemed like someone just shouted out two million?

"The fellow Daoist in Box B 24 is willing to pay two million!"

Luo Hanxiang excitedly bid: "Two million for the first time!"

There was a sudden silence below.

Even Master Iron Shan in Box No. 6 widened his eyes.

He had also reserved two million spirit stones to compete for the Red Moon Dew, and was waiting for others to bid as high as he could before making his bid.

I didn't expect that after waiting so long, I didn't even have the chance to make a quotation.

"Wait a minute, does he have so many spirit stones?"

The person in Box B3 suddenly spoke up, "This fellow Daoist in Box B24 has already spent 2.2 million Spirit Stones, and now he's asking for such a high price."

"I think the chamber should check his financial resources and make sure the auction process is fair."

Of course, the so-called inspection is just an excuse.

He actually just had a sudden inspiration and wanted to take this opportunity to open the box and take a look in advance at who the other person was.

"That's not necessary. I believe no one would cheat."

Zhenjun Canye suddenly said, "However, in order to prevent confusion and mistakes in the previous quotation, please re-quote the price so that everyone can hear it clearly."

He now regarded Xiao Chen as the representative of the hidden Taoist school.

Naturally, there is no need to worry that he doesn't have spirit stones.

When he heard someone questioning him, he wanted to offer flowers to Buddha as a gesture of goodwill.

It not only demonstrates the magnanimity of the Feiye Chamber of Commerce, but also serves as a way of giving others a way out. If there really aren't enough spirit stones, they can just treat it as a mistake.

"I'll give you two million."

Xiao Chen's calm voice sounded again.

This time everyone heard it clearly, it was indeed two million.

In Box No. 4, the Eight Vajras of Qianji Valley counted the 1.8 million spirit stones collected in the storage ring.

He shook his head speechlessly: "What are we still arguing about? I'll just buy them all for you."

He had his eyes on two items at this auction.

They are the previous fifth-grade talisman and this bottle of Red Moon Dew. I just want to get one of them.

Who would have thought that just because he hesitated for a moment before, thinking that the fifth-grade talisman was too expensive to cost more than one million spirit stones, it would be better to keep it and fight for the latter.

In the end, I didn't even have a chance to bid.

He sat in the box throughout the entire auction and never called out a bid.

If I had known earlier I wouldn’t have come!
"Are there any fellow Taoists willing to offer a higher price?"

Luo Hanxiang tried to ask: "The next time the Guiyun Secret Realm opens will be in a hundred years. If you miss this opportunity, you will never see it again."

There was only silence in response to her.

Among the people present, there were indeed three people who brought more spirit stones.

However, their goal from the very beginning was the last item, and it was impossible for them to spend money in advance for the Red Moon Dew.

"Let us congratulate the fellow Taoist in Box B24 for winning this bottle of Red Moon Dew for two million."

Luo Hanxiang quickly completed the process and took the lead in praising.

When they heard her announce the result, the crowd exploded.

Various exclamations mixed together, and normal conversation was almost inaudible.

"Two million, huh!"

A middle-aged monk put his hand in his mouth in excitement and even bit it until it bled.

The smell of blood attracted the attention of the monk next to him: "Fellow Daoist, don't be so excited!"

Another person also advised: "That's right, it's not that serious, it's not that serious!"

The middle-aged monk Lao Qi also immediately realized his own mistake and said with a wry smile: "Hehehe, I came from a small place and have never seen the world."

How could he not be excited? This was two million spirit stones.

For a cultivator who is building a foundation, it is equivalent to a huge fortune that he cannot earn in ten lifetimes.

Before coming here, Lao Qi thought that if this thing could be sold for 200,000 or 300,000 yuan, it would be a lot. He never expected that it would be so valuable.

So much so that he couldn't control his emotions.

The monk next to him smiled and consoled him, "Hey, I'm from a small town too, but I've seen so many auctions that this is the case."

"Let me tell you, big places are actually pretty much the same as small places."

"Just pay attention to these few aspects..."

He said this while winking at his friend next to him.

The two of them immediately and enthusiastically pulled Lao Qi to chat, introduced him to the situation of Tingtao Sea, and gave him some precautions for foundation-building cultivators.

"My fellow Daoists, the next item is the last one in this auction."

Luo Hanxiang's voice was filled with excitement: "Legend has it that there is a magical object that can help cultivators increase their spiritual awareness..."

She spoke for a full quarter of an hour.

He used various tricks to arouse the curiosity of the monks present.

Finally, the defensive formation on the platform was activated in advance to prevent anyone from taking risks.

Then he took out a piece of jade that was glowing purple, like amethyst.

"This item is none other than the renowned Three Lights Soul-Nourishing Jade!"

"There is no reserve price for this auction, but each bid must not be less than 10,000 spirit stones."

As soon as she finished speaking, the Eight Vajra shouted, "I'll give you one million spirit stones!"

He didn't expect to be able to win the bid, he just wanted to participate in the auction. He couldn't just come here to look.

Sure enough, right after he finished shouting.

Another voice followed: "Two million."

Ok?
Everyone looked towards the box where Xiao Chen was, their eyes widened with expressions of disbelief.

No, the previous item has been auctioned off and now it’s the turn of the new item.

What do you mean by repeating the quotation?
You can't possibly still have two million spirit stones, right?
You, you, you can't really have it, right?

(End of this chapter)
