Chapter 32 Underground Auction

At the end of the secret passage, two men in black were motionless, guarding in front of the door. They stood with a large knife-like magic weapon in one hand and stared at the people who came.

There was a bloody and cold aura about them, as if they had gone through many battles. They were somewhat similar to the mercenaries Lin Chen had in his previous life, and were very different from many sect monks.

When Lin Chen came closer and took a glance, one of them once again confirmed that the secret message was correct, opened the door, and then stood aside without moving.

Without any further hesitation, Lin Chen strode in.

Behind the door is a wide hall. The aisle is covered with a red blanket. There are rows of chairs in the hall. The chairs are not connected together. There is a distance of about ten feet between each chair. Like arranged in a certain order.

Lin Chen entered the hall after passing through the door. He found that there were several doors like this behind him around the hall. Monks were coming out from behind the doors one after another. It seemed that there were several entrances and exits to the auction.

Lin Chen calmly walked to a row at the back and found a random chair to sit down on. Then he began to glance around casually, taking in his surroundings.

In addition to the first floor, the lobby also has small stairs connecting the private rooms on the second and third floors. Each private room has a small window, so you can see the lobby.

As far as Lin Chen knew, private rooms were used by consignors or auction regulars.

Although it is underground, the hall is very bright. If you look carefully, you can see that the ceiling is inlaid with bright pearls, emitting soft white light.

At this time, some monks were scattered on the chairs in the hall. Most of them were wearing black clothes, hiding their faces, and sat quietly on the chairs. Everyone in the spacious hall was dressed in black, giving it the feeling of a gang meeting.

At the same time, there was silence in the venue. They either closed their eyes to relax, or looked around, without talking to each other, obviously not wanting to reveal their identities.

It seemed that Lin Chen came earlier, there were still many seats in the hall, and it wasn't time to start the auction yet.

Lin Chen sat quietly on the chair, and began to plan the current things in his mind.

"According to the information given by Xu Mengyun, she has participated in this auction for five years and has mastered all imports and exports. Of course, this is only the import and export of us guests. The management monks at the auction venue will definitely have a special secret passage, but Obviously it won’t be given to people who buy spiritual essence, so this is my chance..."

There is no doubt that Lin Chen did not intend to buy it at all, but directly grabbed it.

As for whether this is a bad idea?

Are you kidding? His moral bottom line is very flexible. Besides, isn't there a popular saying in this world: Those with treasures will live in them if they are virtuous!

After about a quarter of an hour, the seats gradually filled up, and there were more and more people. At a glance, there seemed to be about a hundred monks.

Three huge bells rang in the hall, and the underground auction officially began.

"Bang"

Several doors slammed shut with a loud noise.

Lin Chen took a closer look and saw that the doors everywhere were tightly closed, but there was no light flashing on them. They were obviously just doors made of ordinary materials. He could break them open at any time if he wanted.

After the door closed, a man in black, with a medium build and whose face could not be seen, quickly walked out from behind the stage.

"Thank you all fellow Taoists for coming to support me. I am Zhao Ming, the host of this auction."

The man in black clasped his fists around, his voice hoarse and low, making it impossible to tell the difference between male and female.

"First of all, I would like to declare that this auction prohibits any suppression or connection that affects the normal bidding. Violators will be punished by our auction. If the circumstances are serious, they may even be arrested on the spot and have their cultivation level revoked!"

"The quotation is based on the lower-grade spiritual stones. If the spiritual stones are insufficient, you can also trade them with other items of equal value."

"Finally, let me reiterate once again, anyone who dares to violate the rules of the auction will be punished!"

Zhao Ming's tone was originally calm, but at the end he had a hint of murderous intent. As soon as he finished speaking, a terrifying spiritual pressure filled the air backstage at the auction.

Foundation-building monk!

Lin Chen's eyes narrowed and he was a little surprised, but after thinking about it carefully, he felt it was natural.

After all, in Jiaqingfang City, the Qingyun Sect can hold underground auctions under the control of the Qingyun Sect. It is obvious that the power behind it is not simple, and it is not surprising to have a foundation-building monk.

When the monks in the hall heard these words, whether they were disdainful or frightened, no one said anything.

"Okay, I announce that this auction has officially begun!"

Zhao Ming said as he took out a small hammer and a small clock from his storage bag, and gently tapped the small clock with the small hammer.

After a sound, a good-looking maid in gorgeous clothes twisted her body and walked out from behind the stage.

She was holding a jade plate with nine jade vases on it.

"The first auction item in this auction is Huang Ya Dan."

"Huangya Dan is one of the best elixirs for increasing true energy and improving cultivation in the middle stage of Qi refining. This elixir is mild and easy to absorb. It allows monks to complete the cultivation of true energy faster and has more time to condense. cyclone."

"There are six pills in each bottle of Huangyadan, a total of nine bottles. They are divided into three groups for auction, with three bottles in each group."

"The starting price is thirty spiritual stones, and each increase in price must not be less than three spiritual stones."

Zhao Ming pointed to the jade plate in the maid's hand and explained loudly.

"Thirty-five spiritual stones"

Immediately a monk present made a quote.

"Forty Spiritual Stones"

Lin Chen's heart didn't rise and fall as he listened to the quotations coming and going.

He only takes elixirs to replenish his energy and energy, but he generally refuses to take elixirs that increase his cultivation. On the one hand, it is unnecessary, and on the other hand, it will cause some impurities in the true energy in his body.

Therefore, he will try to avoid taking it if possible.

"Fifty-five spirit stones!"

As the price was raised to this amount, everyone in the venue became quiet, and no one made any bids anymore.

Although three bottles of Huangya Dan normally only cost 30 spirit stones, this kind of medicine is mild and easy to absorb and refine. It is often expensive but not marketable. Once it is refined, it is booked early. few.

Or maybe he got a good start, Zhao Ming said kindly to the monk who took the pill, "These three bottles of Huangya Pill belong to the Taoist fellow Taoist who took the photo. The Taoist fellow can go to the side hall for delivery at any time."

As the auction progressed, three groups of Huangya Dan were auctioned at prices of sixty, sixty-five, and seventy-five respectively.

"The second auction item is here for me."

Zhao Ming waved his hand, and the maid holding Huang Ya Dan stepped back, and another beautiful maid came up holding a jade plate.

"The first-level magic weapon, the golden light shield, was made by a weapon refiner with great effort and took seven days. It can withstand the full attack of the monks in the late stage of Qi training for a period of time. It is a good magic weapon to save lives."

"Fellow Taoists who are away from home, don't miss it. Owning this thing is equivalent to having an extra life!"

"The starting price is three hundred spiritual stones, and each increase in price cannot be less than ten spiritual stones."

…

Lin Chen only came here this time for the century-old chalcedony, and other treasures could not catch his eye, so he never made a bid.

However, the next item to be auctioned moved his mind.

"The following is the sixty-sixth auction item. The method of body refining - "Blood Origin Marrow Refining Sutra"!"
