Chapter 159 The auction begins
Returning to Longshou Island, Yunshu chose to live in the Artifact Gate.
During this period, he also took out the feather of the ugly starling from the Baiyun Immortal Sect and gave it to Wan Sangji for research.
When Wan Sangji saw the special function of the starling's feathers making them disappear instantly, he felt like he had found a treasure.
"Mr. Yun, how many of these feathers do you have left? Can you give them to me? Of course I won't take them for free. I guarantee that the price will satisfy you." Wan Sangji said to Yun Shu with eager eyes.
Seeing Wan Sangji's hungry eyes, Yun Shu was secretly delighted: "It turns out that these guys are so popular. I'll make a lot of money from them, hehehe."
"Hey, these feathers were given to me by Senior Bai Yunzi from Baiyun Immortal Sect. Old Wan, you know that this kind of favor is priceless!"
"Oh my god! It's priceless. If you want to raise the price, just say so!" Wan Sangji muttered silently in his heart. Of course, he wouldn't say it out loud.
Otherwise, this deal will fail.
He was determined to get these feathers.
Because he was refining a special magical weapon in preparation for participating in this auction.
If the concealment function of this material is added, the price may directly increase fivefold.
Thinking of this, Wan Sangji's tone became even more anxious. He said, "Mr. Yun, just tell me the real price. I really want it!"
"I have five in total...how about...you name the price!" Yun Shu actually didn't know how many spirit stones this feather was worth.
He thought of selling it for 500 spirit stones. At worst, he could go to Baiyun Mountain later and find a way to pick a few more.
"One thousand... spirit stones... one... stick?" Wan Sangji asked hesitantly. He was afraid that offering a price that was too low would anger Master Yun, and it would be troublesome if he couldn't make the deal.
"Deal!" Yun Shu answered simply.
Damn! That was too loud!
Lao Wan almost beat his chest and stamped his feet.
Fortunately, he has now begun to look forward to what kind of effect the magic weapon that the Artifact Sect is participating in the auction this time will have after it is equipped with the concealment function.
Pay in one hand and deliver in one hand.
Yunshu got 5000 spirit stones.
Wan Sangji got five starling feathers.
After getting it, he hurried to the weapon refining room of the Artifact Gate.
Yunshu walked to the street of Longshou Island to inquire about some news about Qisha Island.
But unfortunately, when Yun Shu asked the owners of the most well-informed teahouses, none of them had heard of the Seven Killings Island.
However, a teahouse owner who was on good terms with the Divine Artifact Sect told Yunshu.
He can put his own problems on the auction.
Just say that whoever provides the information about the Seven Killings Island will be rewarded with so many spirit stones.
As long as he gives enough spirit stones, someone will find a way to help him find the information.
Yunshu thought this was a good idea, so he returned to his room in the Artifact Gate and counted the spirit stones on him.
More than 6000 spirit stones were looted from Wang Sen and Fei Hong.
Trade the starling feather with Lao Wan from the Artifact Gate and get 5000 yuan.
The ten thousand spirit stones that he had earned with the brothers Deguang and Decai in Taihu City had already been given back to Wu Baidao as daily expenses for the Diando Sect.
He only has a few hundred spirit stones left on him.
By this calculation, Yun Shu had a little over ten thousand spirit stones on hand to use for participating in the auction.
Say no more, say less.
We'll see what happens when the auction starts.
Yun Shu thought so.
……
Ten days later, the auction of Longshou Island officially began.
The auction was held on a beach west of Longshou Island, where a huge auction platform was temporarily built.
There are more than a dozen seats on each side of the auction table.
These seats are prepared for large sects at the level of the Divine Artifact Sect, large trading companies or some Nascent Soul cultivators.
Individual cultivators and some small sects were all crowded on the beach below the auction table.
Yunshu naturally sat on the seat of the Divine Artifact Gate. Next to him sat Wan Sangji and a middle-aged nun.
The middle-aged nun’s Buddhist name is “Mujia Shi Tai”. Like Yunshu, she does not belong to the Divine Artifact Sect, but is a distinguished guest of the Divine Artifact Sect.
Nun Mujia has a super contralto voice. If you just listen to her voice, most people would think she is a man.
Yunshu once wondered if she had transformed from a man into a nun.
But he didn't dare to ask, for fear of angering the nun and having her turn him from a monk into a nun.
That's it!
"Oh...it turns out that Lao Wan likes this. The world is so big that there are all kinds of perverts!" Yun Shu complained in his heart.
"A-choo!" Wan Sangji beside him sneezed violently.
The VIP seats on the auction table were gradually filled with people.
The auction officially begins.
At this time, a young monk in a white robe and with shiny hair walked to the center of the auction table.
He cleared his throat, clasped his fists and said, "Dear seniors, fellow Taoists, I am Yuan Zhijian from the East Sea City Patrol Team. I have the honor of being invited to be the host of this Dragon Head Island auction. If there is anything wrong with the hosting, you are welcome to correct me!"
"The rules of this auction are that the auctioneer will first display the items to be auctioned and give a base price for the items, and then everyone will bid with spirit stones."
"If you don't have enough spirit stones, you can use items of equal value as collateral. The specific value will be jointly assessed by Fellow Daoist Wansangji of the Divine Artifact Sect and Master Xiangyang of the Flowing Cloud Sect."
Yuan Zhijian is also a Jindan-stage cultivator, so he calls Wan Sangji "fellow Taoist".
"In short, just like in regular auctions, the highest bidder wins."
"Okay, the auction starts now!"
"The first competing product!"
As soon as Yuan Zhijian finished speaking, two disciples from the Divine Artifact Sect, who had been preparing for a long time, carried a tray and walked onto the auction stage together.
The treasures on the tray were covered with a red cloth.
The naked eye cannot see what is inside.
Moreover, there are restrictions on the auction table that limit spiritual consciousness, so it is impossible to use spiritual consciousness to detect what is inside.
After the two disciples of the Divine Artifact Sect placed the tray on the display table in the middle of the auction counter, they stood beside the table with their hands behind their backs.
At this time, Wan Sangji, who was beside Yun Shu, cleared his throat, stood up, and walked onto the auction stage.
He walked over to the display table and lifted the red cloth from the tray.
The treasure inside was revealed, a soft rope emitting golden light.
Wan Sangji grabbed the soft rope and began to explain: "This is the latest top-level artifact refined by our Divine Artifact Sect, the Ten Thousand Miles Invisible Immortal Binding Rope!"
"The Ten Thousand Miles Invisible Immortal Binding Rope?"
"What kind of magic weapon is this?"
"The name sounds awesome..."
"It's definitely amazing. This is the first item in the auction, and it's a magical weapon made by the Divine Artifact Sect!"
The audience in the audience talked a lot.
Wan Sangji continued to introduce: "This immortal rope can tie up people with cultivation below the middle stage of the Nascent Soul!"
"Wow!" There was an uproar in the audience upon hearing this.
"So awesome? Can he even tie up a Yuanying stage cultivator?"
"Will you die if you don't brag?"
"Don't tell me, this is a divine weapon gate, it's really possible!"
Before Wan Sangji finished his introduction, there was another round of discussion in the audience.
