Avenue Stowaway

An energetic old man walked up to the high platform in the middle and looked around at the guests with a smile. Most of the chairs arranged in a circle were already occupied. Kong Fang, who was sitting in the room, took a quick look and saw that there were at least five or six hundred monks who came to participate in the auction.

Of course, many of these people come here with their family elders to gain some experience, and there aren’t actually that many people who actually participate in the auction.

The old man laughed loudly and said, "Welcome all fellow Taoists to come and support us. I would like to thank you all in advance on behalf of Qiankun Pavilion." The old man was very polite, and everyone who came to the auction laughed kindly.

"I won't say any more nonsense. I'm sure everyone will get impatient. It will be embarrassing if I am driven off the stage." The old man said self-deprecatingly, which caused another round of laughter.

"Okay!" The old man's voice suddenly rose a little, "Next, is the first treasure we will auction today, a 'Fa Ning Dan'! The detailed introduction is on the treasure list, so I will not repeat it. I will just announce the rules. The minimum price of this Fa Ning Dan is one million green gold, and each increase in price must not be less than fifty thousand. Now, the auction begins!" The old man's voice echoed everywhere, even in the ** room where Kong Fang and the others were, they could hear it very clearly. This old man was obviously also a very powerful cultivator.

But it was normal, as all the people who came here to buy things were cultivators, and some were even extremely powerful. If an ordinary person were to preside over the auction, the gazes of the cultivators alone would be enough to scare him speechless.

"One million and five hundred thousand!" Soon someone started bidding.

"One million, three hundred thousand!" Then someone directly raised the price by two hundred and fifty thousand.

"One million and five hundred thousand!" Then someone raised the price by another two hundred thousand.

The voices of bidding rose and fell, some people raised the price by hundreds of thousands at a time, while others only raised it by fifty thousand. Kong Fang looked at the treasure list in his hand. The first treasure on the list was the Fa Ning Dan. Kong Fang looked at the introduction of the Fa Ning Dan on the list.

Soon, Kong Fang finished reading the introduction, and couldn't help but admire it in his heart, "This Fa Ning Dan can condense the magic power. It makes the magic power purer, and the magic power can be more freely used when performing Taoist magic. It is easier to control. It is a very good pill."

Kong Fang exclaimed, "However, this Fa Ning Dan is far inferior to my Nine Flows Return to One Secret Method. The Nine Flows Return to One Secret Method not only compresses my mana, allowing me to refine more mana, but also increases the power of my mana many times."

Kong Fang suddenly burst out laughing. The secret method of returning the Nine Streams to One was something that even his master, who was once a powerful Butterfly Transformation Realm expert, was amazed at. How could it be compared to a small Fa Ning Pill?

Looking back now, Kong Fang himself felt a little unbelievable that he was able to create such secret methods as the Three Flows Return to One and the Nine Flows Return to One.

Over the years, Kong Fang had met many cultivators, but he had never seen any cultivator whose magical power had increased so terribly.

Just when Kong Fang was distracted, the Fa Ning Pill was finally bought for 2.25 million green gold.

When the old man's voice echoed everywhere again, Kong Fang came back to his senses and turned his eyes to the high platform. The second treasure sent up was a weapon spear, a top-grade acquired treasure! The starting price was also one million green gold.

Kong Fang retracted his gaze and carefully looked at the list of treasures in his hand.

Kong Fang just received this list, two days ago. The Zi family couldn't find Kong Fang, and the Qiankun Pavilion naturally couldn't find him either, so this treasure list was just delivered to Kong Fang.

Kong Fang quickly scanned the auction and found that there were a total of thirty-two treasures on the auction.

Qiankun Pavilion initially prepared thirty treasures, and with the two that Kong Fang suddenly sent, there were thirty-two in total.

Kong Fang first found the Mist Hidden Flower that he was most concerned about, and found that the Mist Hidden Flower was ranked 26th in the auction order, which was very far behind. The two treasures that Kong Fang sent for auction, the Red Flame Mist Heart and the Azure Dragon Wood, were ranked 17th and 31st respectively.

There were two other very good treasures auctioned in the middle of the auction along with Chi Yan Lan Xin. This was obviously to create a warm atmosphere, otherwise it would have been dull and would not have aroused the passion of the monks to bid.

The last one in the list was a low-grade acquired treasure, a weapon glove. But there was only one.

"A few days ago, the waiter of Qiankun Pavilion told me that acquired treasures will not be traded with green gold. They are usually bartered. This time, Qiankun Pavilion is willing to put up a low-grade acquired treasure for auction. It turns out that there is only one." Kong Fang immediately understood.

Although the lower-grade acquired treasure is very precious, there is only one boxing glove, which would be very troublesome to use. After all, a cultivator would not fight with others with only one hand.

Kong Fang also looked through the other treasures carefully. There were a few very good treasures among them, but they were not what Kong Fang wanted. Kong Fang no longer paid attention to the auction outside the room and closed his eyes to rest.

More than half an hour later, the treasure to be auctioned finally came to the Red Flame Storm Heart sent by Kong Fang. Kong Fang then opened his eyes and began to watch. How much the Red Flame Storm Heart could sell for would also mean how much money Kong Fang would have to compete for Kirigakure in the future.

Although Kong Fang still has the Azure Dragon Wood, the Azure Dragon Wood was auctioned after the Mist Hidden Flower.

The old man on the platform said loudly: "The next item to be auctioned is the Red Flame Mist Heart, a very precious refining material. The most precious thing is that this is a Red Flame Mist Heart of perfect quality. Don't be fooled by everyone, this is the first time I have seen such a perfect Red Flame Mist Heart."

"Perfect quality?" The cultivators who knew Chi Yanlan well all expressed surprise, while several weapon refiners in the crowd were ready to make a move.

In the fourth room on the right side of Kong Fang, there were three people, an old man and two young people, a man and a woman. The old man sat at the back, while the two young people stood by the window. There were special formations on the windows of these rooms, so people outside could not see in, but people inside could see outside.

Hearing about Chi Yan Lanxin's perfect quality, the old man couldn't help but frown slightly.

The two young men were somewhat excited. The woman in the yellow dress turned back and asked the old man, "Master, is there really a Chi Yan Lan Xin of perfect quality?"

The young man also looked over immediately.

"Let's take a look first." The old man did not give a definite answer.

In fact, the old man also had some doubts in his heart. It stands to reason that Qiankun Pavilion would not speak nonsense, but is it possible for Chi Yan Lanxin of perfect quality to exist?

While the old man on the platform was speaking, a young monk walked up to the platform carrying a purple gold plate covered with silk cloth, placed the plate on a table on the platform, and then quickly retreated.

"Everyone, please look." The old man waved his hand. The silk cloth flew aside, revealing the Red Flame Heart in the purple gold plate. The light flickered on and off. It seemed to have life, instantly attracting everyone's attention.

"So beautiful!" the young woman in the room exclaimed excitedly.

"From here, there is not a single flaw. It is very likely that it is a Chi Yan Lan Xin of perfect quality." Before the young man finished speaking, he found that his master who was sitting in the back had come to his side. The young man was startled and quickly stepped back to make room for his master.

"Is there really a perfect quality Chiyan Lanxin in this world?" The old man looked at the Chiyan Lanxin on the plate on the platform with some disbelief in his heart. From his understanding, this was unlikely. But the treasure was right in front of him, and he couldn't help but believe it.

"The starting price is 10 million green gold, and each bid increase must not be less than 1 million!" the old man on the platform announced loudly.

When this price was announced, many people were speechless. The starting price alone scared off many people, it was really too high.

But the real price of the perfect quality Chiyan Lanxin is far more than 10 million green gold.

Kong Fang was also a little surprised. He didn't expect the starting price to be so high. Although the true value of Chi Yan Lan Xin was far more than this, this was the starting price after all.

The old man in the room walked back and sat down again, "Master wants this Chiyanlan Heart." These simple words showed his determination to get it.

This old man can have a room of his own here, so his identity and strength must be very extraordinary.

“I must get the perfect quality Red Flame Storm Heart. It is not just a precious material for refining weapons. Once it falls into my hands, I may be able to uncover the secret and find out how this perfect quality Red Flame Storm Heart came into being.” The old man thought secretly in his heart.

What the old man didn't know was that to obtain the perfect Chi Yan Lan Heart, all the secrets lay on that layer of stone skin, not on the Chi Yan Lan Heart.

The two young men were immediately excited. With these words from their master, the Chi Yanlan heart of perfect quality would definitely not escape.

As soon as the old man on the platform finished speaking, when no one else spoke, an equipment refiner suppressed his excitement and took the lead in quoting a price!

"Eleven million!"

This sound was like a spark of fire, which instantly ignited the scene. The other weapon refiners also took action immediately.

"Thirteen million!"

"Fifteen million!"

The price of Chiyan Lanxin kept rising, and while others were still in a daze, Chiyan Lanxin had already soared to 20 million, almost shocking those who didn't know Chiyan Lanxin.

Even those who knew Chi Yanlan a little, but not in depth, all had their eyes wide open, and were almost ignited by the fiery bidding. They wanted to shout out a number that would make their blood boil.

From the beginning of the auction till now, the price of a treasure has never soared at such a terrifying speed. What's more terrifying is that the starting price of Chi Yan Lan Xin is 10 million, not the 2 or 3 million of the previous treasures!

There were only a few people bidding, but the atmosphere was much more intense than any previous auction. Many people were affected by this atmosphere, and felt their blood rushing rapidly, their hearts pounding, and their faces flushed as if they were drunk.

The breathing of those young monks who followed their family elders to broaden their horizons began to quicken, with only excitement and delight left in their eyes.

In just twenty or thirty seconds, the price of Chi Yan Lan Xin soared all the way to 30 million, but it did not stop and continued to rise wildly.

"Master, should we take action now?" the young man turned around and asked, his face flushed and excited.

"Wait a minute, this is not the price that a Chi Yan Lan Xin of perfect quality should have!" The old man seemed very calm.
