"Second uncle, don't worry, this auction has been arranged seamlessly. All the monks who bid to buy are unremarkable casual cultivators that we have already bought. These monks seem to have nothing to do with our Ye family from the surface, and the first-class auction After the end, these people will immediately silence, and will never leak the slightest word. But how did the emperor deal with it? Why did Taiyimen and Tianmozong suddenly send two old monsters, Xuanqing and Qimiao, to the palace? You didn't hear anything, did you?" the beautiful woman said hesitantly.
The old man with the black crown also showed a worried look when he heard the words.
"Don't worry, my elder brother has already found out their intentions. They came from the Sanhuang's Pingshan seal. Now that the seal is about to be refined, Sanguan will complete the final fusion of the various parts. The two families are also aware of it." Numerous people, just from the little rumors we deliberately exposed, we already faintly know that what we are refining is He Bao. So this time, we are putting pressure on our Ye family and asking to sell this treasure to their two families. This is also good Well, with this bait in the open, my real plan will not be noticed by them. But just in case, all the elders who know the plan will go out together recently, so don’t accidentally encounter these two old monsters It would be terrible to be forcibly probed for his consciousness. Especially this time, the Qimiao Daoist from Tianmozong is good at all kinds of ecstasy and secret techniques. Tell me everything." The square-faced middle-aged man twitched his muscles and exhorted solemnly.
"So that's the case, that's reassuring. But the Pingshan seal was also refined by us through untold hardships, so why don't we give it to these two families at such a low price?" the old man Wuguan said with great regret.
"Cheap them? How is that possible! If only one family came to our door, we might not be able to bear the pressure, so we could only admit it, but now that there are two families coming together, there is naturally room for fish in troubled waters. Big brother already has With the arrangement, even if Pingshanyin cannot be kept in the hands, it will never fall into the hands of these two families so easily." The square-faced middle-aged man sneered with a hint of sarcasm.
The old man and the beauty with the black crown looked at each other, and they couldn't help being confused, but they also wisely didn't ask any more questions.
So the three chatted for a while, then broke up and left, doing their own thing.
…
A day passed, and in the blink of an eye, it was the day when the big auction was held.
During this period, although Yin Luozong searched everywhere for Han Li's whereabouts, the places they were looking for were only other places, inns, and places where some monks gathered near Jinjing. Once, of course, nothing was gained.
Early in the morning, Han Li changed his face, turned into a black-faced man, turned the bamboo tube behind his back into a long sword, and left the Taoist temple, heading straight for Jinxifang City. Along the way, he restrained his breath and lowered his cultivation to the level of alchemy, so as not to attract too much attention.
The result was as he expected, the closer he was to Jinxi City, the more he could sense the aura of high-ranking monks. Among them, although the core formation stage is the main one, there are also many monks in the Nascent Soul stage. As for the low-level monks, there are very few.
It seems that monks with a little wealth are unwilling to let go of this big auction.
After Han Li passed through the restriction, as soon as he entered the square market, he immediately found monks in various costumes everywhere on the whole street, and there were many people in strange clothes among them.
However, when he glanced at the entrance, he found several black-robed monks with gloomy faces, constantly scanning the people who entered the market, and one of them was that Ge Tianhao. But Tianlan Saintess did not appear here for some reason.
Han Li frowned inwardly, but pretended to be ignorant and walked towards the main hall, without paying any attention to these Yin Luozong monks. But as soon as he raised his leg and took two steps, a ray of spiritual consciousness immediately swept over, turned around and left without finding anything, and ran towards another alchemy stage monk who had just appeared.
Yin Luozong's behavior of scanning the monks who entered the market with their spiritual sense is not that every monk who enters the market is treated like this, but only those monks with strange faces, casual cultivators or suspicious identities. Encounters, those high-level monks belonging to other sects and sects, these people simply ignored them.
Their secret behavior of scanning the mind is fine for those cultivators at the alchemy stage. If the other party can't find out this behavior, they will naturally have no reaction, but a few casual cultivators at the Nascent Soul level encountered this as soon as they entered the market. , naturally furious in his heart, he stared coldly at these Yin Luozong monks.
Fortunately, people like Yin Luozong didn't intend to provoke any troubles. After the spiritual consciousness was swept away, there was no other follow-up action. Although these high-level casual cultivators were dissatisfied, they would not really provoke Yin Luozong and others The master of the demonic way, can only leave as unhappy as Han Li.
"Elder Ge, I heard that that person is proficient in the art of disguise and illusion. I'm afraid it's useless for us to stay here like this." A newly appeared old man with triangular eyes and stern eyes couldn't help feeling dissatisfied seeing that he hadn't gained anything.
"I asked a few senior brothers to do this. I originally wanted to scare the snake away. I didn't want to use this method to find this person immediately. This person is very powerful. I don't have any good way to see through this person's real body, but like this If you look for him aggressively, maybe he panicked and might reveal something. Even if this man can hold his breath and not leak any flaws, you don't have to worry about it. The sudden man and the Heavenly Demon Sect also have some friendship, and Fellow Daoist Lin has already gone to the Heavenly Demon Zong’s Qimiao Daoist borrowed the Wonderful Mirror, and now he is concentrating on cultivating at his residence. It only takes two or three days for him to be able to drive freely. It’s best for me to find this person now. If I can’t find it, I can also let this person lose Once it is the last day or two of the auction, under the power of this mirror, that person will have nowhere to hide, and he can be taken down quickly." Ge Tianhao glanced at the stern old man , Said lightly.
"That's how it is. I said that with Elder Ge's ability to plan all kinds of strategies in the sect, how could he do such a useless thing. If this is the case, there is no need for the suzerain and the others to come here, and the few of us can take down this person , You have made great contributions to the sect." The triangular-eyed old man's eyes lit up, and he said excitedly.
"I hope so." Ge Tianhao laughed dryly and looked in the direction of Baoguang Hall.
The guy to be dealt with this time is a ruthless character no matter how you look at it. Even the fourth elder who was originally the top-level Nascent Soul in the sect might be killed by this person. How could he be so easy to succeed? It's not unusual for any accident to happen, it's better to be more careful.
Ge Tianhao thought silently, his face became gloomy.
…
At this time, Han Li was already standing in front of the huge stone palace that he had seen that day. At this moment, the hall of light is completely covered by a layer of five-color light curtain, which looks mysterious and abnormal.
To Han Li's surprise, there was another single-story hall made of white stones in the sky above Baoguang Hall. Although the area is slightly smaller, only one-third of the stone hall below, it is also hundreds of feet wide, and it is definitely a colossal existence in the air.
In front of Han Li, a yellow-shirted attendant from the Foundation Establishment Stage was explaining something to Han Li respectfully. At this time, Han Li no longer concealed his Nascent Soul stage aura. Although the cultivator in charge of the auction looked at Han Li a little casually, he didn't dare to show any signs of impatience.
In front of the hall, there are other monks in the same dress, also entertaining some high-ranking monks of Nascent Soul level. As for the monks in the alchemy stage, they can only walk honestly to a stone tablet in front of the main hall, and look at the things written on it.
"The Nascent Soul-level auction has been changed to the Nine Heavens Hall above, and the alchemy stage is still held in the Baoguang Hall. In addition, the Nascent Soul-level auction requires 1,000 spirit stones per person, and the alchemy stage auction requires 1000 spirit stones per person. Only Bailingshi can enter, I'm not wrong." After a long while, Han Li turned his eyes away, glanced at the attendant in front of him, and said calmly.
"Senior Mingjian, it is indeed the case. This time, there are three more monks participating in the auction than in previous years, so we have to borrow this Nine Heavens Palace from Tianji Pavilion urgently for temporary use. In addition, the payment of these spirit stones is the same as in previous years. The regulation is mainly to prevent the auction from being overcrowded, and it is necessary to control the number of people in the auction by means of this method. However, seniors with the status of seniors will naturally not notice these spirit stones. Otherwise, if anyone can Entering the hall at will, even if the venue is ten times larger, it will not be able to accommodate it at all." The yellow-shirted monk said with an apologetic smile.
"One thousand spirit stones? You guys are really good at fishing for spirit stones. But as you said, as long as I can get something that I am satisfied with, I won't care about the little spirit stones. Of course I won't at the alchemy auction. Interested, I want to participate in the Nascent Soul auction." Han Li raised his hand, and threw ten mid-level spirit stones into the yellow-shirted monk's arms.
"Senior, please come in. The Nascent Soul Auction will start in the morning. This is the brand of the auction. Seniors can participate in the Nascent Soul Auction in the next few days with this card." As soon as the monk in yellow shirt got the spirit Shi smiled even more on his face, and took out a jade token with a number from his sleeve, and handed it to Han Li.
As soon as Han Li reached out to take the jade tablet, a blue light flashed on his body without saying a word, and he turned into a startled rainbow and ran straight to the air hall.
At this time, other monks had already flown into the air with the Escaping Light.
When Han Lifei entered the gate of the Nine Heavens Palace, there was no one there except for a pale white light curtain.
With a frown, he poured some spiritual power into the jade tablet in his hand and shook it towards the light screen a few times, then a red light shot out from the jade tablet, and the light curtain parted by itself wherever it passed.
Without even thinking about it, Han Li's figure flickered, and the person turned into a blue rainbow again and flew in, and then the light curtain immediately closed as before.
Two hours later, hundreds of Nascent Soul cultivators flew into the Nine Heavens Palace in mid-air one after another.
And after three loud bells rang, the big auction began.
