After saying this, Sanjue Zhenren stepped aside. A tall and thin young man in a golden shirt jumped onto the platform. He bowed to Sanjue Zhenren, then clasped his fists towards all the cultivators and said, "I am Yu Hong. I have refined a low-grade defensive magic weapon. I would like to ask for your opinions, fellow Taoists."
He shook his sleeves and a red light flew out. It turned out to be a small umbrella with a shining red light. There was a red carp pattern on the umbrella. The red carp swam around on the umbrella like a living creature. The umbrella ribs were wrapped in a red light and runes flashed continuously.
The small red umbrella spun in the air, and billowing flames swept out.
"The Red Carp Umbrella is made from the skin of a third-grade low-grade red carp beast, and the ribs are made from the bones of the red carp beast. When I was refining it..."
Yu Hong talked about the materials and refining techniques of the magic weapon, other refiners gave comments, and finally Master Sanjue gave a few suggestions.
One after another, Jindan cultivators came forward to display their magic weapons and explain the materials and techniques used to make them. They mainly displayed attacking magic weapons, while the number of defensive and flying magic weapons was very small.
Han Changming secretly sighed that Master Sanjue had great appeal and was able to attract so many third-level weapon refiners to participate in the treasure appraisal conference. It was a pity that Han Zhangxiang was unable to come. In addition, many third-level weapon refiners were unable to attend the treasure appraisal conference. Some of them were busy, and some were not well-informed. When they knew that the treasure appraisal conference was held, it was already too late.
At this time, the benefits of disciples and relatives are reflected. If you have disciples or relatives and friends, you can receive the news earlier and catch up to participate in the treasure appraisal conference.
Some of the magic weapons displayed by these Jindan monks were magic weapons they refined themselves, and some were magic weapons sold at auctions.
"Friend Han, what a coincidence! I actually met you here."
A familiar male voice sounded in Han Changming's ears. Han Changming turned his head and saw Cheng Guangbei standing behind him. Cheng Guangbei reeked of alcohol and his face was slightly red. It was obvious that he had drunk a lot of spiritual wine.
"Friend Cheng, long time no see."
Han Changming greeted Cheng Guangbei with a smile. It had been more than ten years since they last saw Cheng Guangbei.
After chatting for a while, the two focused their attention on the magic weapons.
The magic weapons taken out by these Jindan cultivators were of different styles, and the materials and techniques used to refine them were also different. Han Changming and Ye Xin were amazed.
Two hours later, the treasure appraisal ended and the auction officially began.
The auction was held in Penglai Palace. Many cultivators lined up to enter Penglai Palace. One had to pay an entrance fee to participate in the auction. The lower the cultivation level, the higher the fee, which was mainly to limit the number of people.
Han Changming and Ye Xin arrived late, but Jiang Tianhe greeted his men and reserved two seats for them in the front row.
The venue was spacious and bright. The floor was paved with some kind of white jade and the top was inlaid with a kind of white spiritual jade, which emitted a soft white light, making the venue as bright as day.
The stone wall was made of some kind of green jade, and was carved with a large number of magical weapons. These magical weapons seemed like living things, and some flying sword patterns even made loud sword sounds.
In the center of the venue was a green stone platform five feet above the ground, on which were placed a green jade table and a green jade chair.
Han Changming looked at the other cultivators. He roughly estimated that there were at least two hundred Jindan cultivators at the venue. This force was enough to sweep across the Red Algae Sea.
"Friend Han, you are here!"
A familiar male voice suddenly sounded. Han Changming looked in the direction of the voice and saw Han Wenbin and Han Wenyue walking towards him. They sat down next to Han Changming.
"What a coincidence, Fellow Daoist Han."
Han Changming greeted him with a smile. Speaking of which, Han Wenbin was also sitting next to him at the last auction held in Haoran City.
"Friend Han, Madam Han, ten years from now will be our master's 400th birthday. If you are free, you can come to our Han family for a drink."
Han Wenyue said enthusiastically that they were familiar with each other the last time. They were not very familiar with Han Changming, but they met him again at the treasure appraisal conference this time. It seemed legitimate for them to invite Han Changming, mainly because Han Changming actually knew many elite disciples from major sects.
According to gossip, the Qianli Twin Immortals asked Han Changming to make elixirs. The Han family of Jinjiao Island is too familiar with the Qianli Twin Immortals. From this incident, it can be seen that Han Changming's alchemy level must be not low. It is better to make friends with them early. It doesn't hurt to have more friends.
"Four hundredth birthday? Okay, if we have time, we will definitely go to Golden Dragon Island as a guest."
Han Changming pondered for a moment and agreed.
"Friend Han, you are a bit biased. You didn't even invite me to your master's 400th birthday."
The voice of Fairy Qinglian suddenly rang out.
Han Wenbin turned his head and was surprised to find that Fairy Qinglian came over and sat down next to Han Changming.
"Fairy Wang, you are joking. We also welcome you to come."
Han Wenbin said politely.
Han Changming and the other four started chatting, talking and laughing.
Lin Xuan and True Man Qing Yan sat in the back. True Man Qing Yan had participated in many auctions and was familiar with the process, so he closed his eyes and rested.
Lin Xuan became more and more wary when he saw Han Changming in the front row chatting and laughing with other Jindan cultivators.
After a cup of tea, accompanied by a series of "clang clang" bell sounds, the auction was officially held, and two men, one tall and one short, jumped onto the bluestone platform.
One man was potbellied, short, with a round face and small eyes, and a simple and honest look. He was wearing gorgeous golden brocade clothes, dressed like a local rich man. Another man was tall and thin, with thick eyebrows and big eyes, and a shrewd look. He was wearing simple green linen clothes, and looked like a farmer in the secular world.
The Two Immortals of Money and Coin, the short and fat man is called Jin Fugui, and the tall and thin man is called Qian Dayou. They were both born in the HSBC Business Alliance. Outsiders call them the Two Immortals of Money and Coin, and they often host auctions together.
"Welcome all the seniors to participate in this auction. We have prepared a total of 108 items, 47 of which are magic weapons. Each one is carefully selected. I hope all the seniors will bid enthusiastically."
Jin Fugui and Qian Dayou clasped their fists to the monks at the same time and spoke in unison.
There were several Nascent Soul cultivators attending this auction, and they addressed the other cultivators as "seniors" out of politeness.
After a brief introduction, Jin Fugui shook his wide sleeves towards the jade table in front of him. After a golden light passed by, five exquisite golden wooden boxes appeared on the table. When they were opened, there was a light blue inner elixir inside each of them.
"One third-grade, top-grade water-attributed demon pill, auctioned separately, with a starting price of 100,000 spirit stones, and each bid must not be less than 10,000."
Qian Dayou shouted loudly, and the two of them worked together skillfully, one displaying the auction items and the other shouting out the price.
The efficacy of a top-grade third-level demon pill is not much worse than a thousand-year-old elixir. Many cultivators present are practicing water-attributed techniques, and there are several third-level alchemists.
Han Changming has water spiritual roots, so he can take water-based pills, and Ye Xin can also take them.
Han Changming spent 210,000 spirit stones to buy a third-grade top-quality demon pill.
Han Changming sold a batch of monster materials and some elixirs in exchange for millions of spirit stones, becoming extremely rich.
The effect of the elixir made from the third-grade top-quality demon pill must be good. Han Changming doesn't care about this amount of spirit stones. He can just sell a few more mid-grade pills and have them.
"Four third-grade, top-grade fire-attribute pills, auctioned separately, with a starting price of 100,000 spirit stones, and no less than 10,000 each time."
Qian Dayou said loudly, and Jin Fugui took out four exquisite red wooden boxes, each containing a light red demon pill.
"One hundred thousand."
"One hundred and ten thousand."
"One hundred and twenty thousand."
······
The bids kept coming in and the price kept rising.
Jin Fugui took out the auction items one by one, including demon pills and demon beast materials. The wings of a third-grade top-quality thunder eagle were sold at a high price of 250,000.
Han Changming had previously killed a third-level mid-grade thunder eagle, and Han Zhangxiang took away its wings. It was unknown whether he had been able to refine a flying magic weapon.
A cup of tea passed quickly, and the atmosphere in the venue was ignited. After bidding farewell to a tortoise shell of a third-grade top-grade demon tortoise, Jin Fugui took out a misty round bead. There was a pattern of a mini monkey on the surface of the blue bead, which looked very spiritual.
"The low-grade magic weapon Sea Ape Pearl is made of sea scale jade. It has the spirit of a low-grade third-grade sea ape refined into it. It can release the sea ape to fight the enemy. The sea ape is extremely powerful. A third-grade sea ape can easily entangle a Jindan cultivator. The base price is 150,000 spirit stones, and each bid must not be less than 20,000."
Qian Dayou said loudly that the sea ape is a common monster. It is good at diving deep into the seabed. This monster is easy to tame. Some cultivators will buy a sea ape to take care of their cave, but high-level sea apes rarely appear.
"One hundred and fifty thousand."
"One hundred and seventy thousand."
"I'll give you two hundred thousand."
······
Many casual cultivators in the Jindan stage participated in this auction. In order to form the Jindan, their savings were almost gone. They participated in the treasure appraisal conference mainly to bid for a magic weapon. Without a magic weapon in hand, the casual cultivators would be at a great disadvantage when fighting with other cultivators.
Han Changming had no interest in low-grade magic weapons, at the very least he would have to bid for a mid-grade magic weapon!
This sea monkey bead was sold at a high price of 350,000 and was bought by Cheng Guangbei.
"The Green Carp Flag is a mid-level magic weapon. It is made of the skin and bones of a third-level mid-level Green Carp Beast. It is both offensive and defensive. The base price is 200,000 Spirit Stones. Each bid must not be less than 20,000 Spirit Stones."
Qian Dayou said loudly, Jin Fugui was holding a banner with a shining blue light in his hand. There was a lifelike green carp pattern on the flag. The green carp seemed to be a living creature, swimming around on the flag.
Han Changming and Ye Xin did not speak. This Green Carp Flag was considered a good magic weapon, but Han Wenbin revealed to them that there were many good mid-grade magic weapons at the auction. According to auction conventions, precious things were often placed at the back.
After a fierce bidding, the Green Carp Flag was bought by a casual cultivator at a high price of 490,000.
Jin Fugui took out magic weapons one by one, most of which were mid-grade attack magic weapons, including swords, guns, sticks, clubs and other eighteen kinds of weapons, and the transaction prices were constantly refreshed.
After slapping away the two flying swords, Jin Fugui took out a banner that was shining with white light. He waved it gently, and a gust of white cold wind swept out.
"The middle-grade magic weapon Xuanbing Banner is made of Xuanbing clam skin and bones as the main materials. The base price is 200,000 spirit stones, and each bid must not be less than 30,000."
"Two hundred thousand."
"Two hundred and thirty thousand."
"Two hundred and sixty thousand."
······
The competition for this Xuanbing Banner was quite fierce, and Ye Xin also participated in the bidding.
Ye Xin bought the Xuanbing Banner at a high price of 550,000. After buying this magic weapon, Han Changming and Ye Xin had only a few spirit stones left, but Han Changming still had a lot of pills on him.
"A mid-level magical weapon, the Golden Flame Fan, is a magical weapon of fire attribute. The base price is 200,000 spirit stones, and each bid must not be less than 30,000."
Jin Fugui took out a golden feather fan, with runes flashing on its surface and emitting waves of heat.
Lin Xuan's eyes lit up, and True Man Qingyan also opened his eyes. This magic weapon was good and could be bought for Lin Xuan.
True Man Qing Yan spent a high price of 590,000 to buy this Golden Flame Fan. After buying this treasure, True Man Qing Yan and Lin Xuan had only a few spirit stones left and could no longer bid for other magic weapons.
Jin Fugui took out a small shield with a red glow. The shield was wrapped in a layer of red flames and was shining with spiritual light.
"The middle-grade defensive magic weapon Lihuo Shield is made from the shell of a third-grade top-grade Lihuo turtle. Something went wrong during the refining process. The refiner can continue refining it and upgrade it to a top-grade one. The base price is 200,000 spirit stones, and each increase in price must not be less than 30,000."
As soon as Qian Dayou finished speaking, a monk immediately made an offer.
"Two hundred thousand."
"Two hundred and thirty thousand."
"Two hundred and sixty thousand."
······
This mid-grade defensive magic weapon is made of good materials, and since it has the potential to be upgraded to a high-grade one, many monks have made bids for it.
Han Changming also opened his bid. The clan leader almost died, mainly because he did not have a good defensive magic weapon. If the clan leader helped to get the follow-up skills, Han Changming would also be willing to help the clan leader buy a defensive magic weapon.
If the clan leader had kept the Chaoyun Armor, he would not have been injured so seriously.
Ye Xin already has a mid-grade defensive magic weapon, Chaoyun Armor, but lacks an offensive magic weapon.
Han Changming spent a high price of 620,000 to buy this Lihuo Shield.
Lin Xuan frowned. He also wanted the Lihuo Shield, but he was short of money and couldn't afford so many spirit stones. He could only watch Han Changming buy the Lihuo Shield.
Comparison is the thief of joy. Han Changming spent millions of spirit stones without even blinking an eye. But when they bought a magic weapon, they were out of money.
When Lin Xuan thought of this, he felt mixed emotions. Before he formed the Dan, Han Changming was far inferior to him. After he formed the Dan, Han Changming left him far behind.
At this time, Jin Fugui took out a flying needle with a green glow, which was looming.
"The low-grade magic weapon, the Shadowless Needle, is a sharp weapon that can harm people. It comes and goes without a trace, making it hard to defend against."
As soon as these words were spoken, the eyes of the monks present became heated.
The flying needle magic weapon is very difficult to refine and is very rare. Due to its small size, it is easy to launch a sneak attack and is very popular among immortal cultivators. This shadowless needle is a low-grade magic weapon, but in terms of value, it is still above the mid-grade defensive magic weapon.
"This treasure was sent by a fellow Taoist to exchange for a medium-quality healing elixir. One bottle is required. We will absolutely guarantee the safety of the exchanger."
Qian Dayou spoke loudly, and all the monks could hear it clearly.
"Invisible Needle, in exchange for a medium-quality healing pill."
Han Changming had a thoughtful expression on his face. He still had some Seven-Star Recovery Pills in his hand that could be exchanged. If he exchanged this Invisible Needle, it would easily attract the covetousness of others.
