Ye Su didn't look away until the people from the Five Elements Sect went upstairs and entered the box.
"I heard that Cheng Huaian also reached the Nascent Soul stage last year. However, he was only twenty-one years old and was a talisman cultivator, which caused a sensation in Guizong City." Zhou Yun said. She only knew about it after receiving a message from Wujian Sect.
Ye Su turned the wine glass. Nowadays, the most popular people in the world of cultivation are sword cultivators. First, sword cultivators only care about the sword and are not disturbed by external things. Second, since the death of the gods, the few great masters who have successfully passed the tribulation and ascended to heaven are all sword cultivators.
Therefore, there has always been a rumor in the world of cultivation that only sword cultivators can ascend to heaven, while other cultivators can only reach the stage of transcending tribulation at best.
"The Five Elements Sect's people are here, and the auction will start soon in the afternoon." Xu Chengyu asked someone to replace the table with wine and food, and asked Ye Su, "Do you want to bid for the talisman?"
Ye Su raised his head and drank the wine in the glass: "Let's see."
In another box.
"What's so good about this kind of auction? If you want a talisman, can't you just go to the elders?" Lian Lian was wearing a red dress, bright and beautiful, but her eyebrows were full of arrogance. She looked at Cheng Huaian who was sitting next to her with some dissatisfaction, "Can you really learn something from those talismans being auctioned? There are so many talismans that can be learned in the Five Elements Sect."
"Only by combining the strengths of everyone can we accomplish something." Cheng Huaian lowered his eyes and said seriously.
Lian Lian sneered, and propped up her chin with her nail polish-coated hand: "What's the big deal? No one paid attention to you when you reached the Nascent Soul stage, but Lu Chenhan became famous overnight in the cultivation world after reaching the Nascent Soul stage."
"Senior sister, I remember correctly." Cheng Huaian raised his eyes and looked at Lian Lian, "You 'like' Lu Chenhan."
Lian Lian picked up the wine jug and poured it directly into her mouth: "Tsk, this wine is not as strong as Kunlun's."
"You have to go and participate in the sect competition." Cheng Huaian looked down through the window, "The sect master will definitely let you go."
Lian Lian threw the wine jug casually, and it fell on the table and spun around. Wine dripped out from the spout of the jug. She leaned back heavily on the chair and said, "Am I going there just to compete for ugliness?"
"Then, practice well." Cheng Huaian's eyes fell on Lian Lian's hand, "It will take some time."
Lian Lian glanced at him and said, "Take care of yourself. When will you change your habit of pretending to be old?"
"That's fun." Cheng Huaian picked up the wine jug and poured a glass into his own cup without any shame.
…
Half an hour later, all the magicians in the lobby on the first floor left, and the shopkeeper of Yuxiang Pavilion stepped forward and said, "Everyone, the annual talisman auction is about to begin. I believe that many monks who have come from afar have been looking forward to it for a long time. This year, there will be talismans written by masters as usual."
After a series of polite words, the stage in the lobby on the first floor was handed over to another person in charge.
Ye Su glanced around the lobby and the entrance of the restaurant, which were filled with guards.
"First of all, this is the Lingyin Talisman. After it is affixed, even masters in the Fusion Stage will not be able to find it." The person in charge pointed to a talisman on the table that was protected by a magic weapon. "The starting price is 20,000 medium-grade spirit stones."
"Big sister, this talisman sounds very powerful." Xia Er leaned against the window and turned to ask Ye Su, "Can you draw it?"
Ye Su folded her arms and stood behind him: "No."
The talisman was tampered with and the strokes on it cannot be seen at all.
Every talisman put up for auction was one that Ye Su had never seen before. She did not bid for any of them. Even if she bought them, she would most likely not be able to draw them because her realm was too low.
"I got 500,000 middle-grade spirit stones." Xiyu was shocked when he heard the man in charge shouting, "Is it possible to make a lot of money with just one talisman?"
"This is not expensive, there are more to come." Xu Chengyu said, "The best talismans require the talisman master to spend a lot of effort, but they are not expensive."
It has been a while since several people from Qianjimen came out, but they have been going in and out of the secret realm, and they still don’t have enough understanding of some consensus in the world of cultivation.
"Next, the last talisman." The person in charge said excitedly, "Everyone can guess what it is."
"Thunder-eliminating talisman!" A voice came from some unknown box.
"That's right, the Lightning Dispelling Talisman." The person in charge clapped his hands, and immediately a cultivator came out with the talisman. "As everyone knows, after the Nascent Soul stage comes the Spiritualization Stage, which is the first step in the path of cultivation. To achieve the Spiritualization Stage, one must experience the tribulation of thunder. The Lightning Dispelling Talisman was drawn by the Five Elements Sect's leader himself with his own blood. It took him seven years to draw it, and it can resist one bolt of lightning!"
Whether it was the guests sitting downstairs in the lobby or in the private rooms, they all became excited when they heard it.
"Senior brother, this talisman can be auctioned." Zhou Yun said to Xu Chengyu.
"Let's see if we can take a picture of it." Xu Chengyu said, "We don't bring many spirit stones with us."
Xia Er counted on his fingers: "It took seven years to draw? Seven days, right?"
"The Lightning Dispelling Talisman has to resist a lightning catastrophe, so it is not so easy to draw it." Ma Congqiu said, "Besides, the talisman master needs to use his own spirit blood to draw it, and he can't draw it every day, so it will take seven years without any mistakes to complete it."
The person in charge of the lobby has already started bidding: "The Lightning Elimination Talisman is too rare. Our starting price this time is 50,000 high-grade spirit stones. Each bid increase must not be less than 1,000."
"Fifty-one thousand!"
The first voice made everyone in the boxes laugh. Then someone bid, "Sixty thousand."
The person in charge looked around at the people in the hall, then raised his head and asked, "Does anyone here have more than 60,000?"
Xu Chengyu said calmly: "Seventy thousand."
Ming Liusha was drinking tea and spit it out when he heard this. What does this mean that he doesn't have enough spirit stones
"Sister Lu, have you ever seen a top-grade spirit stone?" Xiyu asked in a low voice.
Lu Jiu shook his head: "No."
Top-grade spirit stones are rarely circulated among ordinary cultivators. Each top-grade spirit stone contains extremely pure spiritual energy, which is completely different from the low-grade and medium-grade spirit stones that contain impurities.
"Eighty thousand." Someone from another private room spoke.
"Senior Brother, I still have 30,000 high-quality spirit stones here." Ma Congqiu said.
"I have 70,000." Zhou Yun followed.
The poor people nearby were so envious that their faces turned green. Is this the wealth that young people should have
Even Ye Su said, "I am usually very rude."
Zhou Yun explained: "These spirit stones are obtained by us from completing tasks in the Deacon Hall of Wujian Sect. In fact, sometimes Wujian Sect will issue tasks to cultivators outside and ask them to help with the work in exchange for high-quality spirit stones."
In just a few words, the lightning-dispelling talisman in the lobby had been sold for 99,000 high-quality spirit stones.
"Ninety-nine thousand per ticket. Is there any guest who would like to increase the price?" The person in charge asked for the second time.
Xu Chengyu said: "One hundred thousand high-grade spirit stones."
"Okay, this guest, 100,000." The person in charge knocked on the small bell in front of him, "100,000 once, 100,000 twice, anyone else?"
"One hundred and ten thousand."
Zhou Yun frowned and shouted directly to the outside: "Fifteen thousand."
There was a sudden gasp in Yuxiang Pavilion. Even Xu Chengyu couldn't accept it: "Junior sister, 150,000 high-grade spirit stones is not a small amount."
"Brother, we can earn spirit stones when we return to the sect later." Zhou Yun didn't care. "One less thunder-dispelling talisman is used. We can't miss it."
"Fifteen thousand high-quality spirit stones is more than enough to buy a protective magic weapon." Xu Chengyu said.
"No protective magic weapon can directly offset a bolt of lightning." Zhou Yun shouted to the outside again.
The spiritual veins of these large sects are endless. After digging out a part of them, they can be restored again after a few years. The spiritual veins are also extremely good and completely free of impurities. When they are used for cultivation, there is no need to refine them at all.
Ye Su stroked the cold white porcelain wine glass with her fingertips, lowering her eyes, not knowing what she was thinking.
