"A top-grade magic weapon made from thousand-year-old black jade!"
There was a commotion among the monks present. Xuan jade is divided into hundred-year, thousand-year and ten-thousand-year Xuan jade. The hundred-year Xuan jade is not precious and is usually used to be refined into utensils. The ten-thousand-year Xuan jade is the most precious. If there are enough of them, it can be used to refine Tongtian Lingbao.
Thousand-year-old black jade is rare in the open sea, let alone the top-grade magic weapon made with thousand-year-old black jade as the main material.
"Xuanyu Ruler, the base price is 200,000 spirit stones, and each bid cannot be less than 30,000."
"Two hundred thousand!"
"Two hundred and thirty thousand!"
"Two hundred and sixty thousand!"
······
This treasure attracted bidding from many Jindan cultivators, including Han Zhangxiang, and the competition was very fierce.
After dozens of bids, this black jade ruler was bought by Qi Yunxiu for 1.1 million.
Qi Yunxiu didn’t have enough spirit stones, so he sold two sets of talismans to get enough spirit stones.
Song Qing took out a piece of red wood about ten feet long. The surface was covered with golden lines. These lines were natural. The red wood gave off a warm air, like a ball of flame.
"Thousand-year-old fire glass wood is an excellent material for refining top-grade magic weapons. If the refining level is high enough, this piece of thousand-year-old fire glass wood can be used to refine a set of top-grade magic weapons. 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!"
······
Han Zhangxiang also participated in the auction, but fire-attributed spiritual wood that was more than a thousand years old was rare in the open sea, let alone such a large piece, which was enough to refine a set of top-grade magic weapons.
"I am Du Yan, and I will offer you 350,000 yuan. I hope you will give our Xuanhuo Sect some face."
An old man in a red robe with a rosy face said politely.
During an auction, some monks would report their backgrounds in an attempt to discourage other bidders, but whether this was useful or not is another matter.
Han Zhangxiang naturally knew about the Xuanhuo Sect. The Xuanhuo Sect had a history of thousands of years and had a Nascent Soul cultivator in charge. It had tens of thousands of disciples, and the Xuanhuo Sect had considerable power in the outer sea.
Even though Du Yan revealed his family background, there were still many people competing with him.
This piece of thousand-year-old fire glass wood was sold at a high price of 550,000 and was bought by Du Yan.
Song Qing flipped his hand and took out a piece of animal skin that glowed red. It was five meters long and wide. Such a large piece of animal skin was enough to refine a set of top-grade magic weapons.
"A fourth-level fire carp beast hide, the base price is 200,000, and each bid must not be less than 50,000."
As soon as Song Qing finished speaking, Du Yan immediately started bidding.
"Two hundred thousand!"
"Two hundred and fifty thousand!"
“Three hundred thousand!”
······
The competition was fierce. Han Zhangxiang also participated in the auction, but unfortunately, he failed to buy the animal skin.
Du Yan bought the animal skin at a high price of 600,000 yuan.
With the skin of a fourth-order fire carp beast and the thousand-year-old fire glass wood, Du Yan had enough to refine a set of top-grade magic weapons with fire attributes.
Han Zhangxiang did not regret it. Du Yan's bid was far higher than the actual value of the materials. After thinking it over again and again, he did not continue to argue.
It’s not that Han Zhangxiang can’t win the competition. Even top-grade elixirs appeared in this auction. Maybe there will be some good stuff. Han Zhangxiang plans to keep the spirit stones to bid for the good stuff.
Song Qing took out hundreds of misty formation flags and a dozen blue formation plates, and said loudly: "The fourth-level formation is the Four Seas Overturning Formation! Even if a Yuanying cultivator is trapped by this formation, he will be in trouble. If several Yuanying cultivators control this formation, the trapped Yuanying cultivator will have to work hard to escape."
"Fourth-level formation!"
There was a commotion among the cultivators present. There were many benefits to having a fourth-level formation. It was quite useful whether it was for hunting monsters or protecting homes.
"This array can be exchanged for materials of equal value. High-grade spiritual medicine, fragments of treasure maps, and rare materials are all acceptable. First come, first served."
Song Qing said in a tempting tone that they had traveled all the way to the open sea to do business, naturally hoping to collect some rare treasures.
It’s no wonder that as soon as these words were spoken, several Jindan cultivators came forward to communicate with Song Qing through voice transmission, and from time to time someone took out something for Song Qing to check.
A set of fourth-level formations is worth millions of spirit stones, and it is not easy to exchange for this set of formations.
Han Zhangxiang didn't have any rare treasures. Apart from his magic weapons, the most valuable things on him were top-grade elixirs. Before Han Changming disappeared, he gave him some top-grade elixirs, but Han Zhangxiang had been reluctant to use them.
No one knew what treasure Qi Yunxiu had taken out in exchange for this formation, which aroused the envy of other cultivators.
Han Zhangxiang was somewhat relieved. Fortunately, he had the foresight to change his appearance. Even if he got something good, he would not be afraid of being targeted.
Qi Yunxiu bought quite a few things at the auction, which had already attracted the covetousness of some cultivators.
Killing people for gold belts and arson, and killing people for treasures will always be there.
After obtaining this set of fourth-order formations, Qi Yunxiu and his companions left the auction venue. He had already obtained a lot of good things and did not have many spirit stones left, so there was not much point in staying any longer.
"A fourth-level formation, the Three Elements Prison Spirit Formation! Even if a Nascent Soul cultivator is trapped, it will be difficult for him to escape in a short time. It can be exchanged for rare treasures or materials of equal value."
Song Qing took out hundreds of green-glowing formation flags and more than a dozen formation plates and spoke loudly.
Han Zhangxiang remained unmoved and just sat in his seat obediently.
Unfortunately, this formation was not exchanged. Song Qing instead used spirit stones to bid for it, and it was eventually bought by Du Yan at a high price of 1.8 million.
Du Yan and his fellow disciples scraped together enough spirit stones but were unable to gather them, so they had no choice but to sell some things, including thousand-year-old fire glass wood and the skin of a fourth-level fire carp beast, some of which he sold.
Han Zhangxiang sold a mid-grade magic weapon and spent 350,000 yuan to buy a piece of fire glass wood and a piece of fourth-level fire carp beast skin that was half a meter long and wide, which was enough to refine two or three fire-attributed treasures.
"The last auction item is a bottle of Nascent Soul Water, which can help Jindan cultivators reach the Nascent Soul stage. This item can be exchanged for materials of equal value."
Song Qing held a green jade bottle in his hand and spoke loudly.
"What? Infant Transformation Water! I've never heard of an Infant Transformation Water auction!"
"Who cares? It's a rare opportunity to see the Infant Transformation Water. If I miss this chance, I don't know when I'll get such an opportunity again."
"That's right, I don't know who is so lucky to be able to exchange for Infant Transformation Water."
······
The monks present stepped forward one after another and communicated with Song Qing via telepathy, and Han Zhangxiang was no exception.
Unfortunately, no one was able to make the exchange successfully.
"Since you don't have any rare treasures, forget it. If you get any rare treasures or precious things, don't forget to come find me. As long as the things are good enough, let alone Infant Transformation Water, even spiritual treasures will be no problem."
Song Qing's tone was full of temptation. As long as one could afford the spirit stones, one could buy Infant Transformation Water in Zhongtian Continent. However, in the outer sea, the major forces had strict control and Infant Transformation Water rarely appeared on the market. Even with one million spirit stones, one might not be able to buy a bottle of Infant Transformation Water.
Only monopoly can create high prices. If the big forces in the outer seas frequently sell the Infant Water, the price of the Infant Water will not be high.
All the monks agreed, and disappointment appeared on their faces.
The auction ended and Han Zhangxiang left Xuanqinglou.
He wandered around the street for two hours, walking around and looking around, but found nothing else. After confirming that no one was following him, he returned to his residence.
He now has thousand-year-old fire glass wood, the hide of a fourth-level fire carp beast, and golden flame crystal, so he can try to refine a top-grade magic weapon with fire attribute.
Han Zhangxiang brought out a red refining furnace with three legs and two ears. He entered a spell and a red flame emerged from the bottom. The temperature in the room suddenly rose.
He first threw the hide of the fourth-order fire carp beast into the refining furnace, and used his spiritual sense to pay attention to the situation inside the furnace.
Time passed little by little, and Han Zhangxiang threw various materials into the refining furnace. He stared at the furnace with a serious look.
······
In a secluded courtyard with green tiles, Ling Xiao Zhenren, Zi Feng Taoist and Han Yue Fairy were sitting in a stone pavilion, drinking tea and chatting.
"Fellow Daoist Ling, Fellow Daoist Sun, you already know each other, so I won't bother you any more. You can chat slowly."
Fairy Hanyue stood up to say goodbye, and Master Lingxiao did not try to keep her.
Taoist Zifeng took out a light green jade slip and handed it to Taoist Lingxiao, saying sincerely: "Fellow Daoist Ling, I would like to ask you to help me refine a furnace of elixirs. It must be at least medium-grade elixirs. The reward will definitely satisfy you."
Master Ling Xiao took the jade slip, scanned it with his spiritual sense, and frowned.
"Nine-transformation Spirit-replenishing Pill! This kind of pill is relatively unpopular, but I can refine it. Since Fairy Lin introduced it to you, I will help you once!"
Master Ling Xiao pondered for a moment and agreed.
Taoist Zi Feng was overjoyed and thanked him repeatedly.
······
More than two months passed quickly.
A secluded courtyard, a secret room.
Han Zhangxiang was sitting cross-legged on a red cushion, with a refining furnace engulfed in raging flames in front of him.
After a while, Han Zhangxiang retracted his magic spell, the flames suddenly dissipated, and he cast a magic spell.
With a muffled "bang", the lid of the refining furnace flew up, and a red flag with shining red light flew out and floated in the air. The flag was covered with countless red runes and exuded a strong fluctuation of fire spiritual energy. It was obviously a top-grade magic weapon.
The words "Chiyan" are engraved on the flagpole, shining brightly.
The Red Flame Flag is Han Zhangxiang’s second top-grade magic weapon.
Han Zhangxiang let out a breath, his eyes filled with joy.
The probability of him refining a top-grade magic weapon is not high enough, otherwise it would not be just one top-grade magic weapon, but a set of top-grade magic weapons.
Han Zhangxiang waved his hand and the Red Flame Flag flew into his hand. Infused with magic power, the size of the Red Flame Flag suddenly increased, and a ball of red flame emerged on the flag, and the temperature in the room suddenly rose.
Han Zhangxiang nodded with satisfaction and put away the Red Flame Flag.
He took out a magic disk that glowed red, entered a spell, and asked, "Benfu, has the Dao Conference been held?"
"Three days later, clan leader, I heard that Senior Zhao will come out to preach in person. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity!"
Han Benfu's voice sounded a little excited.
"Senior Zhao? Are you talking about Senior Zhao Qiankun, the leader of the Righteous Alliance?"
Han Zhangxiang asked, Zhao Qiankun is a spiritual master, and it is indeed a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for him to preach in person.
"Yes, it is Senior Zhao. The last time he showed up was hundreds of years ago."
Every monk has a different life experience and pursues a different "Tao", but there are similarities and things that can be learned from. By listening to the teachings of high-level monks, if you are lucky, you can break through a small realm or resolve a bottleneck.
As the leader of the Righteous Alliance, Zhao Qiankun rarely shows up in public. This is a rare opportunity for Zhao Qiankun to preach, which is a rare and golden opportunity.
"I understand. Let's go and listen to Senior Zhao's sermon. I hope we can gain something from it."
Han Zhangxiang was somewhat fortunate that Han Deling and Han Daojing came to the outer sea, otherwise he might not have the time to come to Haoran City, and he didn't know how long Zhao Qiankun would preach.
······
A magnificent golden palace, the ground paved with some kind of exquisite golden jade, luxurious and grand.
Zhao Qiankun sat on the main seat with a dignified look.
Jiang Qingshu was standing aside, reporting the situation to him.
"Master, according to your instructions, after the news of the Dao Conference spread, a large number of high-level cultivators rushed to Haoran City. According to conservative estimates, there are 40 Nascent Soul cultivators in Haoran City. Under the leadership of Master, we should be able to seize a lot of territory."
Jiang Qingshu looked excited. This was an expansion of territory and would leave a deep mark in the history of the human race.
Zhao Qiankun nodded and said, "Everyone is calling for the destruction of the demon tribe now. After I finish my talk, we will send people to attack. Conquering cities and territories is secondary. The key is to kill as many high-level demon beasts as possible. The demon tribe has been gathering strength over the years. Madam Song, Fellow Daoist Li and I also want to take this opportunity to weaken the power of the demon tribe. We must not repeat the mistake we made more than ten thousand years ago."
"Yes! That incident almost drove our human race out of the open sea. To be honest, True Lord Qianyang is the culprit. If it weren't for him, there wouldn't have been a large beast tide, causing heavy losses to the human race."
Jiang Qingshu sighed.
"Just say this in front of your master, and don't complain to others. True Lord Qianyang did not die in the outer sea, but went to Zhongtian Continent. If he hadn't died, he should have advanced to a higher realm."
Zhao Qiankun's eyes were solemn.
"A higher realm? Did Master meet Master Qianyang in Zhongtian Continent? Or did he hear about Master Qianyang's deeds?"
Jiang Qingshu asked curiously.
Zhao Qiankun did not hide it and said, "Of course I have heard about his deeds. The great elder of Xuanyang Sect fought with True Lord Qianyang in the past, but the result was unknown. He was able to fight with the great elder of Xuanyang Sect, so he is definitely not an ordinary person."
When Jiang Qingshu heard this, a look of surprise flashed in his eyes.
He didn't expect that True Lord Qianyang was so powerful that he had actually fought with the great elder of Xuanyang Sect. True Lord Qianyang was active more than ten thousand years ago. If he hadn't died, he would definitely have advanced to a higher realm.
"By the way, you didn't tell them!"
Zhao Qiankun remembered something and asked in a deep voice.
"Without Master's order, how dare I leak the secret? The demon tribe has been restless in recent years. Who knows if anyone has secretly communicated with the demon tribe?"
Jiang Qingshu said cautiously.
Zhao Qiankun nodded in satisfaction and said, "That's good. I am quite confident that you can do your job well. Now, go and get busy!"
Jiang Qingshu responded, bowed and left.
"The outer sea has been quiet for so many years, it's time for some excitement, old Jiao, I wonder what realm you have reached."
Zhao Qiankun muttered to himself, with a look of reminiscence on his face.
