Chapter 648 Black-Robed Monk, Late Jindan Corpse Puppet

Unlike the "corpse puppets" of the Qi Refining and Foundation Building stages, it is much more difficult to refine the "corpse puppets" of the Jindan stage. The materials that need to be prepared, such as the third-level ghost king ghost pill, are also very rare in the world.

Even if the "Tiangui Sect" has a secret method to cultivate it, it takes a lot of time and spiritual objects to do it. The spiritual stone materials required to cultivate a "corpse puppet" of the Jindan stage are at least ten times more than the foundation building "corpse puppet".

Because of this, "corpse puppets" above the Jindan stage are so rare in the world of immortal cultivation.

Like the foundation building cultivators below, at least half of the Jindan cultivators who came to the "Tiangui Sect" auction on the second floor are also for the few Jindan "corpse puppets" that are the finale of the auction.

After all, as Jindan cultivators, no one would want to refuse a helper who can improve their combat power by 30%. The help of a Jindan "corpse puppet" to Jindan cultivators is far more useful than ordinary magic weapons.

However, with so many Jindan cultivators present, it is hard to say who will get these Jindan "corpse puppets"!

After the appearance of these "corpse puppets" in the foundation-building stage, the entire auction has entered an unprecedented lively scene. It was not until more than half an hour later that more than a dozen foundation-building "corpse puppets" were successfully divided up by the cultivators in the audience.

The two most expensive "corpse puppets" with cultivation in the late foundation-building stage were also auctioned at a high price of nearly 12,000 spirit stones, which made Song Qingming sigh in his heart.

"Even among these foundation-building cultivators in the audience, there are many people with a lot of wealth. They are willing to spend so many spirit stones on this."

When Song Qingming was still in the foundation-building stage, he was reluctant to spend so many spirit stones to configure even a talisman, let alone the "corpse puppet" with such a high price and more preciousness.

After all the "corpse puppets" on the stage had their respective owners, at the next auction, the "Tiangui Sect" continued to bring out more high-level spiritual objects unique to their sect, as well as things like foundation-building pills that could attract the attention of many cultivators.

Unlike the immortal cultivation world in the Floating Cloud Mountains, the immortal cultivation world in the "Eastern Phoenix Country" is a holy land for human cultivators, and the spiritual resources that can be cultivated, such as spiritual herbs and spiritual medicines, are much richer.

Therefore, although the "foundation-building pill" is also expensive here, it is not as difficult to obtain it as in the Floating Cloud Mountains. As long as you have enough spiritual stones, it is not difficult to buy it in a larger market.

Song Qingming had already purchased several "foundation-building pills" when he passed by other ways and participated in the trading conference before, so the foundation-building pills brought out by the "Tiangui Sect" were no longer very attractive to Song Qingming now.

Although he had no shortage of spiritual stones and spiritual objects, Song Qingming did not make many bids on the second day of the auction. He only competed for a few third-level spiritual objects, and immediately stopped when he saw that the price exceeded his expectations.

Like the "Star Conference" that Song Qingming participated in that year, the auction held by the "Tiangui Sect" was also divided into three days. On the one hand, it could keep everyone in the market for a few more days and increase the income of some spiritual stones in various places in the market.

On the other hand, it could also give some cultivators who spent too many spiritual stones the day before a little time to raise spiritual stones so that they could participate in the next auction.

On the third day, the entire "Tiangui Sect" auction also entered the final climax stage.

At the beginning, the "Tiangui Sect" cultivator who was responsible for hosting the auction took out a powerful "corpse puppet" whose cultivation had reached the Jindan stage as the first item, which instantly attracted the attention of all cultivators at the auction site.

Especially those Jindan cultivators sitting on the second floor of the auction site, all of them had a gleam of light in their eyes, and many cultivators had already put down their tea cups and were ready to start bidding on the stage.

When the cultivator of the "Tiangui Sect" who presided over the auction of this item below just announced the start of bidding, more than a dozen Jindan cultivators immediately sent voice transmissions to report their prices.

Song Qingming, who was sitting upstairs, looked at the price of the Jindan "corpse puppet" with a calm face. It soared from the reserve price of 20,000 spirit stones to nearly 40,000 spirit stones in a short time.

Seeing that the competition atmosphere was still hot, Song Qingming could only gently pick up the tea cup on the table, patiently tasted it, and first gave up the idea of ​​​​making an offer.

Although he could also take out so many spirit stones to participate in the competition, the main purpose of this trip was not for this Jindan "corpse puppet", but to keep the spirit stones and wait for the next spiritual object.

In the end, this Jindan corpse puppet, whose cultivation level was not as good as "Golden Wind", also fell into the hands of a middle-aged man at the third level of Jindan at a high price of 48,000 spirit stones.

Seeing that the other party spent so many spirit stones to get this Jindan "corpse puppet", and then went downstairs to trade with the "Tiangui Sect" cultivator with excitement, Song Qingming sighed slightly in his heart.

Originally, Song Qingming had an idea to try to bid for a Jindan "corpse puppet" and give it to Qingyu or Huang Siyuan after returning, but seeing that the thing in front of him had been bid so high, it was indeed a bit difficult for him to do it.

The reason why he didn't want to use it for himself was also because in the world of cultivating immortals, a Jindan cultivator could only control one "corpse puppet" of the same level to fight against the enemy with the help of the soul.

If there were more, the ability of the "corpse puppet" in battle would be greatly reduced if the soul could not control it, and it would be difficult for the controlled "corpse puppet" to exert the power he wanted.

It is precisely because of this limitation that the disciples of Yuanying sects like "Tiangui Sect" can rely on the help of "corpse puppets" to gain some advantages in fighting with cultivators of the same level, but their strength is essentially not too much beyond other ordinary cultivators in the world of cultivation.

When they encounter those cultivators of the same level who have better magic weapons and are slightly more powerful, they are still no match for them.

Otherwise, if it is like those puppet beasts, as long as the cultivator's consciousness is stronger, he can control several "corpse puppets" of the same level to fight at the same time, then it will be difficult for cultivators of the same level to defeat them.

If this is true, the strength of "Tiangui Sect" should be more than this, and it would have been among the top ten Yuanying sects in the world of cultivation in "Donghuang Country".

Under normal circumstances, a cultivator can only control one "corpse puppet". Song Qingming now has "Golden Wind" on him, so he naturally does not need extra "corpse puppets".

The first "corpse puppet" had just been auctioned off. The cultivator from the "Tiangui Sect" who was hosting the auction on the stage waved his hand and took out two green bottles. He smiled and said loudly to the cultivators present: "Dear Daoists, those of you who have Jindan-stage corpse puppets will definitely want to continue to improve their strength! This sect has already considered this for everyone. These two bottles of Jingui Pills are secret medicines made by our sect's unique secret method, which can help corpse puppets in the early Jindan stage quickly break through the realm of cultivation. Let me make it clear to everyone in advance that this pill can only help" "Corpse Puppet" can only be effective when it breaks through the realm of cultivation. It does not mean that if you refine it directly now, you can increase your cultivation by one level. I hope that fellow Taoists will not misunderstand this.

Okay, I have reminded you of what I should remind you. I will say so much. It depends on you fellow Taoists next!"

"Golden Puppet Pill, starting price is 3,000 spirit stones per pill, fellow Taoists, please!"

"3,500 spirit stones!" As soon as the voice on the stage fell, a voice was immediately transmitted and shouted out in a private room opposite Song Qingming on the second floor.

Seeing that the spiritual object he had been waiting for for a long time finally came out, and confirming the effectiveness of this object with Qingling next to him, Song Qingming did not think too much, and quickly opened his mouth and shouted out his own offer!

"Four thousand spirit stones!"

"..."

Knowing that this object can only be used for the "Corpse Puppet" in the early stage of the Golden Core when it breaks through, those cultivators who do not have this object on them will definitely not participate in the bidding for no reason.

Therefore, there are not many cultivators competing with Song Qingming for this object on the scene, and there are only three or five people including him.

"Five thousand five hundred spirit stones!"

"Six thousand spirit stones!"

As the bids were called out, the price of the "Golden Puppet Pill" climbed to six thousand spirit stones, which had slowly exceeded its original market price, and gradually some cultivators withdrew from the bidding.

Because the speed of "corpse puppets" is generally lower than that of normal Jindan cultivators, it is difficult for outsiders to cultivate them without secret methods.

Except for the "Tiangui Sect" that specializes in this, other ordinary Jindan cultivators who get a "corpse puppet" in the Jindan period will rarely spend too much energy and resources to cultivate it.

Only people like Song Qingming, who already have these cultivation resources and happen to meet "Golden Wind" who has followed him for many years, and whose cultivation has reached the peak of the first level of Jindan and is difficult to advance, will spend some spirit stones to help it quickly break through the cultivation.

"Six thousand five hundred spirit stones!"

Except for Song Qingming, there was only one Jindan early stage cultivator who was wearing a loose black robe, with a fair face and very handsome appearance, who was still bidding and did not give up the fight for this item.

"Seven thousand spiritual stones!"

As soon as the black-robed monk finished his offer, Song Qingming did not hesitate, and immediately sent another voice transmission to the auction table below, raising the price of the "Golden Puppet Pill" to seven thousand spiritual stones.

Since he came here mainly for this spiritual object, as long as the price is not too outrageous, Song Qingming will naturally not give up easily.

Seeing this! The black-robed monk sitting not far from Song Qingming's private room hesitated for a moment, and chose to send a voice transmission directly to Song Qingming.

"My fellow Daoist, although this pill is precious, its price now exceeds its original value. If we continue to fight like this, these spirit stones will only be cheapened by the Tiangui Sect.

If you agree, I will give this pill to you first, and please don't fight with me for the next Golden Puppet Pill. How do you think about this?"

The black-robed cultivator was obviously dressed like a man, but his voice was unexpectedly pleasant and faintly feminine, making it difficult for Song Qingming to tell whether the other party was a man or a woman.

However, in the world of immortal cultivation, there are all kinds of strange people and things. These are no longer strange things for him who has traveled around. What Song Qingming cares about more is that the other party wants to discuss the auction of the "Golden Puppet Pill" with him.

After just a moment of thought, Song Qingming immediately nodded slightly at the other party and agreed to his proposal.

Although Song Qingming also wanted to get both of the "Golden Puppet Pills" on the stage, since the other party was also coming for this spiritual pill.

If the two of them fought endlessly at this auction, they would definitely waste a lot of spiritual stones, which was not a very cost-effective thing for him.

Anyway, one "Golden Puppet Pill" should be enough to help "Jin Feng" break through his cultivation. As for the next time he breaks through his cultivation, it will normally take at least a few decades.

Song Qingming currently has no such long-term plan to cultivate "Golden Wind", and can only take it one step at a time.

After all, improving the cultivation and strength of "Golden Wind" is only a secondary matter for Song Qingming, and the key spirit stones are still to improve his own cultivation.

"Since no fellow Taoist wants to bid, this third-level inferior Golden Puppet Pill belongs to fellow Taoist No. 32. Congratulations on winning this item with 7,000 spirit stones!"

Without the competition of the black-robed monks, when the monk of the "Heavenly Puppet Sect" who presided over the auction announced the result, Song Qingming immediately stood up and went to the stage to spend several thousand spirit stones and successfully got the spirit pill he wanted.

Although the price of buying this "Golden Puppet Pill" with 7,000 spirit stones has slightly exceeded the market price of this pill, Song Qingming is still very happy that he has successfully achieved his goal.

When the second "Golden Puppet Pill" came out, Song Qingming was also very trustworthy and did not continue to participate in the competition. The remaining spiritual pill fell into the hands of the black-robed monk for 6,500 spiritual stones.

After bidding for this item, the black-robed monk also bowed slightly to Song Qingming to express his gratitude. Seeing this, Song Qingming immediately smiled and returned the greeting.

This time, both of them successfully got the pill they wanted. Both sides were still very satisfied with the result, with a few smiles on their faces.

After the auction of these two "Golden Puppet Pills", the "Heavenly Puppet Sect" took out some spiritual pills that could improve the cultivation of the "corpse puppet" in the Jindan period at the auction.

However, compared with the "Golden Puppet Pill" that can be used for breakthroughs, the number of these spiritual objects is much larger, and the competition is also much smaller.

After all, most people buy spiritual objects such as the "corpse puppet" in the Jindan period and use them as timely combat power. There are indeed not many monks like Song Qingming who are willing to spend spiritual stone resources to cultivate them.

Taking advantage of this gap, Song Qingming also frequently made moves, spending thousands of spirit stones to buy a lot of elixirs and spiritual objects that can enhance other cultivation for "Golden Wind".

After all these spiritual objects were gone, it wasn't long before the "Tiangui Sect" took out a precious Jindan "corpse puppet" to liven up the slightly depressed atmosphere at the scene.

Because the Jindan-stage "corpse puppet" taken out by the "Tiangui Sect" had a higher cultivation level and had reached the third level of Jindan.

Therefore, compared with the first Jindan "corpse puppet" before, the price of this auction was also higher. It was not until 56,000 spirit stones that it was finally auctioned.

Seeing the higher prices, Song Qingming also saw the love and craziness of these Jindan-stage "corpse puppets" of these Jindan cultivators present.

If Song Qingming hadn't been lucky enough to get a ghost pill that year, and Chen Xuanxin happened to send him the secret technique of refining Jindan "corpse puppets", he would not have spent so much effort to refine "Golden Wind".

If he had spent 40,000 to 50,000 spiritual stones to buy a finished Jindan "corpse puppet" like the Jindan cultivators present now, Song Qingming might not have made up his mind even if he had so many spiritual stones.

After all, since he entered the Dao cultivation, Song Qingming has never been a person who likes to fight with others. In his mind, improving his cultivation speed has always been prioritized over improving his fighting ability.

After the auction of the second Jindan "corpse puppet" was completed, the progress of the auction had already passed more than half, and the spiritual objects that "Tiangui Sect" took out next were also some of the remaining high-quality final spiritual objects.

Next, "Tiangui Sect" took out several spiritual objects of level 3 or above in succession. When it came to the penultimate spiritual object, there was even a very rare level 3 high-quality magic weapon on the market.

This immediately attracted everyone's attention and attracted a lot of competition among the Jindan cultivators present, but in the end, this object did not unexpectedly fall into the hands of a Jindan late-stage cultivator who was also from the nearby Yuanying Sect.

Magical weapons of the third-grade and above are rare and precious spiritual objects, even in the "Donghuang Country" where spiritual resources are relatively rich.

It is difficult to see a third-grade magic weapon on an ordinary Jindan cultivator, and most of them are in the hands of those Yuanying-level sects.

Song Qingming traveled alone and naturally did not want to provoke those Yuanying-level cultivators at will. Therefore, although the last few auctioned treasures were good, he did not take the initiative to participate in the bidding competition, but just sat aside and watched to gain experience.

As time went on, the entire auction soon entered the competition for the last finale item.

When Song Qingming, who had been looking forward to it, saw another Jindan "corpse puppet" taken out by the "Tiangui Sect" on the stage, he was still slightly shocked.

"It's actually a corpse puppet in the late Jindan stage. The Tiangui Sect is really generous this time. They are willing to take out even this!"

"Haha! It's really not in vain. I didn't expect that I would have the honor to see such a rare spiritual object."

".!"

Hearing the surprised voices around him, Song Qingming couldn't help but show a very surprised look on his face.

Although he knew that as the finale of the auction, the "Tiangui Sect" would definitely not take out a common thing. At least it should be a third-level upper-grade spiritual object to be worthy of the finale.

However, even so, Song Qingming still didn't expect that the "Tiangui Sect" would be willing to take out a "corpse puppet" that had been cultivated to the late Jindan stage for public auction. This was indeed a bit beyond his expectations.

You know, it is very difficult for a "corpse puppet" in the Jindan stage to improve its cultivation level. If you want to cultivate such a "corpse puppet" of the seventh Jindan level, even if the "Tiangui Sect" has special secret methods, it is estimated that it will take at least a hundred years to cultivate it.

It stands to reason that this level of "corpse puppet" is an important combat power foundation of the "Tiangui Sect". It is generally reserved for the elders of their own family to use for sacrifice and cultivation. It is unlikely to appear in such a public auction.

After asking Qingling who was standing aside, Song Qingming realized that it was not the first time that the "Tiangui Sect" took out this level of precious spiritual objects at the auction. Song Qingming's face slowly showed some understanding.

Before the cultivators present recovered from their shock, the cultivators of the "Tiangui Sect" immediately began to introduce the detailed information of this late Jindan "corpse puppet" according to the auction process.

To be honest, the hundreds of Jindan cultivators present, including Song Qingming, were all fascinated by this late Jindan "corpse puppet".

You should know that this is a powerful combat power comparable to that of ordinary late Jindan cultivators. If Song Qingming can get the help of this thing, with his current fifth-level Jindan cultivation, he will definitely not be at a disadvantage against a cultivator like Li Wutong who has just broken through to the late Jindan stage.

"Fellow Daoists, I would like to remind you that this late Jindan corpse puppet is a rare spiritual object that our sect will only produce once every two hundred years. If you miss it this time, you will have to wait at least two hundred years next time. I hope you will not miss the opportunity.

The low price is 30,000 spiritual stones. Please bid!"

"32,000 spiritual stones, 33,000 spiritual stones, 35,000 spiritual stones!"

"Tiangui Sect" just announced the start of the auction, and most of the Jindan cultivators sitting on the stage immediately quoted their prices excitedly, all of whom did not want to miss this rare opportunity that only comes once in a hundred years.

"Our sect bids 60,000 spiritual stones!"

Just as the bidding on the stage was hot, a gray-clothed old man in the late Jindan stage, who was sitting in the private rooms on the second floor, raised the price of this late Jindan "corpse puppet" to a sky-high price of 60,000 spiritual stones, immediately interrupting the voices of the cultivators who were constantly bidding.

"You are such a bunch of ignorant people. You casual cultivators are not qualified to own spiritual objects of this level!" After the gray-clothed old man finished bidding, he did not forget to mock the cultivators who had just participated in the auction.

Facing the gray-clothed old man's ridicule, many cultivators present were a little unhappy, but no one dared to show it. They all turned their eyes away and dared not look at him again.

"Haha! Old Yu, your words are really too harsh. Since the Taoist friends present have come here to participate in the auction, they are also guests of the Tiangui Sect. Even if they don't have the strength, they are qualified to bid. Why do you have to say such cold words?"

As soon as the gray-clothed old man finished speaking, a middle-aged man sitting in a private room not far away immediately responded to him. (End of this chapter)
