It's no wonder that there were quite a lot of good things in this large-scale auction, including a second-grade mid-quality alchemy furnace. Han Changming was somewhat tempted, but he was poor and could only watch the alchemy furnace being bought by someone else.
Alchemy furnaces, weapon refining furnaces, sets of magic tools, second-level demon pills, second-level escape talismans and other items appeared at the auction venue one after another. Han Changming could only look but not buy.
After a cup of tea, after bidding away a second-grade top-grade defensive magic weapon, the old man in yellow robe took out seven green porcelain bottles and said, "Seven foundation-building pills, the base price is 10,000 spirit stones, and the price can be increased by 1,000 each time."
"Ten thousand!"
"One hundred and one!"
"Twelve thousand!"
······
There were too many monks competing for the Foundation Establishment Pill, and the price rose rapidly.
Han Changming opened his bid, but unfortunately he failed to buy a Foundation Establishment Pill.
The lowest transaction price for five Foundation Establishment Pills was 46,000 yuan, and the highest was 50,000 yuan. This was mainly because many people were bidding and the price kept rising, which only gave the organizer a bargain.
Mu Yunxiao bought another foundation-building pill. Being wealthy, the Chen family also bought a foundation-building pill.
Han Changming was not surprised. The Mu family clung closely to the Qingyun Sect, so it was normal for them to be a little richer.
"The second-level superior formation is the Three Talents Soul Severing Formation. Even if three foundation-building cultivators work together to control it, five foundation-building cultivators may not be able to break out of the formation. The base price is 10,000 spirit stones, and each bid must be increased by no less than 2,000 spirit stones."
"Ten thousand!"
"Twelve thousand!"
"I'll give you 14,000!"
······
Han Changming mainly wanted to bid for the Foundation Establishment Pill, but unfortunately he failed to buy it. The spirit stones on him were pieced together by his clansmen, and he only had more than 3,000 pieces.
This set of Three Talents Soul-Slaying Formation was eventually bought by the Chen family at a high price of 40,000 spirit stones, showing their great wealth.
"My natal magic weapon, the Fire Blade, is made from Fire Crystal and a variety of fire-attributed materials. It is extremely powerful. Fellow Taoists who practice fire-attributed techniques should not miss it. The base price is 10,000 spirit stones, and each bid must not be less than 2,000."
"Ten thousand!"
"Twelve thousand!"
"Fourteen thousand!"
······
This fire-blade knife eventually fell into Mu Yunxiao's hands.
Han Changming was secretly surprised. The Mu family was so wealthy? It was really enviable.
"Three pieces of the third-level low-grade attack talisman, the Thousand Waves Talisman, which are comparable to the full-strength attack of a cultivator in the early stage of Jindan. The starting price is 10,000 spirit stones. Each bid must not be less than 3,000 spirit stones. They will be auctioned separately."
"Level 3 attack talisman!"
Han Changming took a deep breath, his eyes a little fiery.
A third-level talisman can be used as a trump card. If you can't bid for the Foundation Establishment Pill, buying a third-level talisman is also a good idea.
"Ten thousand!"
"Thirteen thousand!"
"I'll give you 16,000!"
······
The competition was fierce, and many foundation-building cultivators placed bids. Han Changming bought a Thousand Waves Talisman at a high price of thirty-four thousand yuan.
He planned to keep this third-level talisman for his own use.
"Two third-level low-grade defensive talisman water glass covers. No magic weapon can break the defense with one strike. The base price is 10,000 spirit stones. Each bid must not be less than 3,000."
The competition for these two defensive talisman water glass covers became even more intense. The Chen family bought one at a high price of 53,000, and the other was bought by a Yang family at a high price of 55,000.
"Well, the auction is over now. I hope you will come and support us again next time."
After hearing this, the monks left one after another.
After leaving the auction venue, Han Changming went straight to the central area of the city.
Han Changshuo sat on the stage, his eyes fixed on the alchemy furnace.
He was refining Shuiyuan Pills. He had refined twenty Yunqi Pills, but he did not add any spiritual water. He placed his hope on the Shuiyuan Pills.
The Tiandan Sect was well-known in the Qingli Sea for its alchemy skills. He was worried about being discovered. The materials for refining the Shuiyuandan were all of water attribute, and adding spiritual water would make it difficult to detect.
As time passed, a strange fragrance wafted out from the alchemy furnace.
Han Changshuo pinched his fingers and the fire became a little bigger.
After ten breaths, Han Changshuo extinguished the fire and walked quickly forward.
He opened the lid of the alchemy furnace and saw twenty-four blue pills inside, full of pills.
He had refined Shuiyuan Pills before, and could produce eighteen or nineteen pills in one furnace. After adding the spiritual water given by Han Changming, he filled the pills directly.
Han Changshuo showed a look of delight and put away the pill.
He handed the pills to the judges for them to identify.
At this time, most of the other alchemists had completed their refining, and some were still refining.
Han Changshuo looked at the other alchemists with a nervous expression.
"Second brother, how is it?"
Han Changming's voice suddenly sounded in Han Changshuo's ears.
Han Changshuo turned around and found that Han Changming had appeared behind him at some point.
"It's hard to say, it all depends on the referee."
Han Changshuo was unsure and looked a little nervous.
"Don't worry! Second brother, I believe you can get a place."
Han Changming patted Han Changshuo on the shoulder and comforted him.
"I hope so!"
Half a quarter of an hour later, all the alchemists handed in their pills, and five second-level alchemists were responsible for checking the pills handed in by each contestant.
In addition to the color and appearance of the pills, they also taste them.
"Hey, this Shui Yuan Dan seems to be a little different."
An old man in a green robe with a goatee let out a light "hmm" and said with some curiosity.
In front of him, there were two green jade boxes, one containing the Yunqi Pill and the other containing the Shuiyuan Pill.
"There are a full Shui Yuan Dan and twenty Yun Qi Dan. This person's alchemy skills are not bad."
"Han Changshuo, I have never heard of this name."
They randomly picked up two Qi Yun Dan and Shui Yuan Dan, divided them into several portions, and swallowed them.
"The Yunqi Pill is average, but the Shuiyuan Pill is of better quality. The Shuiyuan Pill can give him an A grade, and the Yunqi Pill a C grade."
Han Changshuo looked at the five second-level alchemists with a nervous expression.
An hour later, five second-level alchemists gave their results and listed the top ten.
Han Changshuo ranked fifth with excellent results, which was beyond his expectations.
"Brother, congratulations! You're fifth."
Han Changming showed joy on his face and congratulated Han Changshuo.
"Fifth place! Fifth place. I actually got fifth place."
Han Changshuo looked a little excited. Most of the top ten in the Tiandan Competition were alchemists from the Qingli Sea. Han Changshuo was from the Red Algae Sea and won fifth place, which was a very good result.
The fifth place winner will get a second-grade inferior alchemy furnace, the Qingguang Ding. Han Changshuo was so excited that he was speechless for a long time.
This Qingguang Ding is an alchemy furnace produced by the Tiandan Sect. The Tiandan Sect is well-known in the world of immortal cultivation for its alchemy skills, so the second-level alchemy furnace it produces will naturally not be too bad.
The first one is Lu Qingqing, a disciple of the Tiandan Sect’s Jindan cultivator.
She refined 24 Yunqi Pills and 24 Shuiyuan Pills, all of which were full pills. This result made her the well-deserved first place.
"Ninth brother, thank you."
Han Changshuo said gratefully that he won the fifth place in the Tiandan Conference. This news would be beneficial to his future development if it was passed back to Tinghai Pavilion.
