Chapter 53: Auction

After leaving Deacon Lin's room, Zhang Yun was taken to a VIP box on the third floor of the attic by the mature woman.

There was a row of long sofas in the box, and a coffee table in front of the sofa was full of fruits. In front of it was a huge floor-to-ceiling window with a great view, and the whole view of the auction venue below could be clearly seen.

The mature woman introduced him: "Mr. Yun, this floor-to-ceiling window is made of one-way glass, and there are spiritual formations on both ends of the mirror. You can see outside through this window, but outsiders cannot see in through this window!"

Zhang Yun nodded.

It is not surprising that the Southern Treasure Pavilion can make such things.

Although the Xiandao Continent is a world of cultivating immortals, some things are actually not backward compared to modern times.

"Mr. Yun, do you need anything else?"

The mature woman suddenly bent down, deliberately lowered her chest, and asked with a hint of charm in her tone.

Zhang Yun didn't look over, just waved his hand: "You go out, I'm alone here!"

"Okay...Okay!"

The mature woman was a little disappointed, but still bowed and left the box.

Zhang Yun glanced at the closed door of the box. How could he not see the hint of the mature woman?

But he was not interested in the latter.

In addition, it can be guessed that the latter came with the idea of ​​finding out his identity.

For someone like him who can take out three hundred-year-old top-grade spiritual medicines at once, the Southern Treasure Pavilion cannot help but be curious.

"Thank you all for coming to participate in this auction of the Southern Business Branch!"

At this time, a white-haired old man in a black suit walked up to the stage of the auction venue below, "I am the host of this auction, Lao Wan!"

"Now, let's invite the first item of this auction!"

As Lao Wan's voice fell, the curtain behind the auction table opened, and immediately a graceful cheongsam woman came out with a tray, twisting her steps.

On the tray was a small jade bottle filled with half a bottle of milky white spiritual liquid.

"This is the first item of this auction, the top-grade body-tempering spiritual liquid. It is made of the top-grade spiritual medicine, the Spiritual Tempering Fruit, and a variety of medium-grade spiritual medicines. It can help cultivators in the Qi Refining and Foundation Building stages to improve their physique..."

Old Wan introduced it.

Zhang Yun raised his eyebrows.

This body-tempering spiritual liquid can help Wu Xiaopang to improve his Overlord Body and speed up his foundation building.

"The starting price of this spiritual liquid is 500 spiritual stones. Now, you can start bidding!"

As Old Wan's voice fell.

"600 spiritual stones!"

"700!"

"750!"

...

The auction venue immediately heard a lot of bidding.

Spiritual liquid that helps the Qi Refining and Foundation Building stages to improve their physique is rare in the market and is still quite popular.

However, after the price reached 1,000 spiritual stones, the bidding in the venue obviously decreased a lot.

Zhang Yun saw that it was almost done, so he picked up the bidding tool on the coffee table next to him and said, "1,500!"

As soon as the voice came out, the venue was quiet.

A lot of eyes looked at the box where he was, a little surprised.

Those who could sit in the box on the third floor of the attic to participate in the auction were either rich or noble. It was rare for such people to start bidding so early.

No one in the venue bid any more for a while.

After all, regardless of the price, no one was willing to offend the person who could sit in the box for such a bottle of body-quenching spirit liquid.

"The VIP in box 12 bid 1,500 spirit stones. Is there a higher price?"

Lao Wan on the stage asked symbolically, and when no one spoke, he swung the auction hammer: "Deal!"

Zhang Yun breathed a sigh of relief.

The normal market price of the top-grade body-quenching spirit liquid is at least 1,200 to 1,300 spirit stones, but it is difficult to come across. It is not expensive to get it for 1,500 spirit stones.

"Next is the second lot of this auction..."

After the body-quenching liquid, one by one, the lots were brought up.

The value was high and low, but even the lowest was some top-grade spiritual medicine worth at least hundreds of spirit stones.

These high-quality spiritual medicines are rare outside, but they are just the most common items in this auction, which shows the level of this auction.

Zhang Yun couldn't help but be curious, what will be next?

If there is a sword-like spiritual weapon or something, he doesn't mind bidding for some blood flower spirit stones.

The Yuntian Sword is good, but if there is a spiritual weapon, it will be better!

One by one, the items appeared on the stage, and they were all very attractive, but Zhang Yun didn't bid again.

Because none of them were what he needed.

In this way, the auction soon came to the end of the first stage.

"Next is the finale of the first stage of this auction. You can't miss it. Because this is a hundred-year-old high-quality spiritual medicine that is rare in normal times!"

Lao Wan on the stage spoke loudly.

"Hundred-year-old spiritual medicine? And it's of high quality?"

"Oh my god, I haven't heard that there will be such a good thing in this auction!"

...

As soon as this was said, there was a commotion in the venue.

Hundred-year-old high-quality spiritual medicine, even in a trading city like Nanshang City, is rarely seen.

For a moment, even some boxes were filled with noise.

"One hundred and ninety years of top-grade spiritual medicine, Earth Spirit Fruit!"

Lao Wan opened the brocade box in front of him, revealing a colorful Earth Spirit Fruit.

"One hundred and ninety years? Oh my god! Nearly two hundred years of Earth Spirit Fruit!?"

"Damn, if a cultivator who practices earth attribute skills gets this fruit, won't he fly?"

...

There were exclamations in the field, and many cultivators' eyes glowed with fiery light.

"The use of this fruit..."

After Lao Wan's introduction, he announced loudly: "The starting price of this fruit is 10,000 spirit stones, and each increase in price must not be less than 100 spirit stones. Now, you can start bidding!"

"10,100 spirit stones!"

"10,500!"

"11,000!"

...

As soon as the voice fell, a series of bidding sounds immediately arose in the field.

In box No. 12, Zhang Yun's mouth curled up when he saw this scene.

"Twenty thousand!"

At this time, a bid made the place quiet.

Zhang Yun raised his eyebrows and looked at a box on the same floor.

There are fifteen VIP boxes in this auction, and he doesn't know how many people are sitting there. After so many auction items, only two boxes have bid. The one that is bidding now is a box that has not been heard before.

Although he doesn't know the identities of the people in these boxes, he can roughly guess some of them.

Either they are like him, who provided the finale of the auction. Or they are some cultivators who have reached the Jindan stage. In fact, he can also sit in the box with his real identity.

Lingxian Sect and Nanshan Sect are the two dominant forces in the southern region. When the elders come, the Nanzangbao Pavilion will also give some face.

At this moment, there may be two elders sitting in these boxes.

"The VIP in Box No. 5 bids twenty thousand spirit stones. Is there anyone who can bid higher?"

On the stage below, Lao Wan asked loudly.

The place was quiet.

Zhang Yun frowned slightly when he saw this.

Although 20,000 spirit stones were not a small amount, it was still lower than he expected. After all, according to the normal selling price, he estimated that this earth spirit fruit could be sold for 15,000 to 18,000 spirit stones, and even 20,000 was not impossible. At the moment, if the price was not raised by 20% or 30%, he would not be qualified.

"Do you want to be your own agent?"

He touched his chin.

But after thinking about it, he shook his head. If no one followed the call, it would be embarrassing!

"21,000!"

At this time, a bid sounded.

Zhang Yun raised his eyebrows and looked at another box.

"The VIP in box No. 2 bid 21,000 spirit stones. Is there a higher price?"

Lao Wan, who was about to swing the auction hammer, paused and asked loudly, looking at the boxes.

At this price, the only ones who can afford it are the VIPs in these boxes.

"Twenty-two thousand!"

The bidding sounded, and it seemed to be from Box No. 5 again.

Lao Wan's eyes lit up, and just as he was about to continue asking, Box No. 2 followed suit and shouted: "Twenty-three thousand!"

"Twenty-four thousand!"

"Twenty-five thousand!"

"Twenty-six thousand!"

...

For a moment, it seemed like a fight, and the two boxes were bidding back and forth.

Zhang Yun saw this and curled his lips.

Fight, fight, the higher the price, the better!

However, when the price reached 'twenty-seven thousand'...

"Thirty thousand!"

A sudden voice sounded.

...
