Chapter 110 Useless things
Feicheng, noon.
The snow is capped, and the sun is relatively gentle and you can feel a faint warmth on your body. This place is close to the boundless ice field, and there is almost no summer. It is in autumn and winter all year round, and the cold wind roars into Feizhou every moment on the boundless ice field.
Feilong was reporting the collected information in the inn.
“The evil wood is indeed produced in Feizhou, as the leader of the Chaotian Sect said. Although it is a tree that grows in the evil land, for some reason only the evil land in Feizhou can produce this kind of wood.”
“Maybe it’s because of the cold weather in Feizhou that there is such a thing.”
“Just like the antidote to snake venom is sure to be found within seven steps.”
“It’s something commonly used by ordinary sects and families in Feizhou for heating. It’s really not a valuable thing.”
“As for the Bahuang Fruit——”
Feilong paused for a moment and said with emotion: “I spent some spiritual stones to find out this news at the “Tianxia Pavilion” which specializes in selling information. The Fierce Wood can also be used for heating. The Bahuang Fruit is truly useless. thing. “
“It belongs to spiritual fruit.”
“It grows completely randomly. It may grow from an apple tree or a pear tree. No matter what type of fruit tree, it is possible to grow Bahuang fruit, which is a bit contrary to the laws of nature.”
“And any tree that grows eight wild fruits will not bear another fruit, and will never bear fruit in the future.”
“The Bahuang fruit is octagonal and looks like a star fruit.”
“If the only effect is… rarity.”
“Because this fruit has no side effects, but it also has no effect. It also has no taste. It is not sweet, not astringent, not sour, not spicy, and the taste is also ordinary.”
“And once the fruit is picked from the tree, it will spoil within nine hours.”
“It must be placed in a jade box so it won’t rot.”
“The price is not expensive. If you want it, you can get one with more than 300 spirit stones. It is mainly spent on travel and search. The only money that actually reaches the hands of the fruit farmers is a few taels of silver.”
“I have already paid the deposit to Tianxia Pavilion and asked people over there to make arrangements.”
“Um.”
Chen Yuan nodded, feeling a little confused in his heart. Every condition for this tenth-grade golden elixir can be said to be extremely stringent, but for some reason the two heavenly and earthly treasures mentioned are ordinary things.
The third-grade golden elixir requires rare forging materials such as dragon vein stone, but the tenth-grade golden elixir only requires heating materials such as fierce wood? The Bahuang Fruit is a little rarer, but it is also useless.
He didn’t wait to think too much.
Feilong spoke again: “There is indeed an auction in Feicheng tonight. This auction has been prepared for a long time. Most of the things in the auction are alchemy furnaces, alchemy recipes, formations, etc. prepared for alchemy cultivators and talisman cultivators. thing.”
“After all, Nanzhou obviously has more alchemy and talisman cultivation.”
“But I heard that there will be two jade slips for sale at the auction.”
“Let’s go take a look tonight.” Chen Yang nodded clearly.
That night.
Chen Yuan was already standing at the entrance of the Jia’s Chamber of Commerce store in “Feicheng”. This was an attic with about five floors, which was considered a taller building in Feicheng. At this time, many monks had already entered the attic entrance.
The auction is about to start tonight.
Jade slips of entry, even the most rubbish ones, are relatively rare. They are often announced in advance and then auctioned to the highest bidder. Of course, these are only lower-level entries and higher-level ones. There is no chance that the jade slips will go to the auction, and they are basically all decided internally.
Standing at the entrance, Chen Yuan did not enter immediately, but looked inside the small world.
He still has more than 4,000 low-grade spiritual stones and 24 medium-grade spiritual stones.
The middle-grade spiritual stones must be saved for the breakthrough of the golden elixir.
According to the scholar, when an ordinary monk breaks through the golden elixir, he must prepare at least forty-nine medium-grade spiritual stones, and then set up a spirit gathering array to ensure that he can successfully break through the golden elixir.
To be on the safe side, he planned to set up a higher-level spirit gathering array, which would require 108 middle-grade spirit stones.
After all, his goal was the tenth-grade golden elixir, and the forty-nine middle-grade spiritual stones were worried that some of them would not be enough.
In the next year, another goal is to accumulate enough middle-grade spiritual stones.
According to Feilong’s information, the two jade slips in this auction are not very good. More than four thousand low-grade spiritual stones should be enough to buy them.
“Let’s go.”
Chen Yuan, Fei Long and others were just about to enter the auction attic when a sarcastic voice suddenly came from their ears: “Where did these bumpkin come from and come to the auction with a disability?”
“.”
Fei Long froze on the spot and glanced around. When he saw that there were no other disabled people around, he was sure that he was talking to them. He looked in disbelief at the young man standing next to them wearing what looked like a rather luxurious robe.
Is this man so brave?
Talk to them like this? Moreover, they had spent several spirit stones to buy their clothes in Wentianfang City at that time, so they couldn’t be considered bumpkins, right?Chen Yang glanced at this person and said nothing more. He strode towards the auction pavilion without any hesitation.
“Hello!”
The young man who spoke just now looked at Chen Yuan and the others with amusement in his mouth and said loudly: “I’m talking to you, are you deaf?”
Chen Yang did not reply, but patted Fei Long on the shoulder to indicate that he should enter the auction first.
There were many young masters gathered around this young man. At this time, he looked at Chen Yang’s leaving figure and laughed loudly without hesitation. The young man who spoke was looking at the crowd and grinning even more. smiled.
“You see, even if it’s Chen Yuan who has won the inheritance of Dharma cultivation, he has to bow his head obediently when he sees me rather than Laiping.”
“Since he asked my grandfather to do something, he naturally had to be his grandson.”
Of course he knew Chen Yang.
The moment Chen Hong obtained the Dharma cultivation inheritance, Chen Hong’s portrait basically spread to the hands of some powerful family sects in the entire Daxia Kingdom. His grandfather was the most famous peak foundation-building weapon cultivator in “Feicheng”.
Naturally, there will be no news.
At this time, Chen Yuan had already entered the auction. Ning Laiping looked at the direction in which Chen Yuan was leaving and sneered: “If a foreign cultivator wants to get the natal treasure created by my grandfather, he must learn to lower his head and be a human being.”
The highlight of tonight’s auction——
That’s it, his grandfather!
His grandfather was at the pinnacle of foundation-building cultivation and was about to break through the golden elixir stage. All the spiritual treasures created by the weapon cultivator with the power of heaven and earth at the moment of breakthrough in cultivation carried more power than the spiritual treasures of the same level! Stronger, more expensive, and rarer! And his grandfather happens to be the best at making magic spiritual treasures, and is famous for it, so Chen Yang came to this auction tonight with a very clear purpose, which is to take a photo of his grandfather tonight The qualification to make a breakthrough in cultivation in public and create a spiritual treasure at the moment of breakthrough.
So I can use this weapon to participate in the competition for geniuses four days later.
But he didn’t like this person.
It’s not that there is any conflict of interest, but the news that grandpa was going to make a breakthrough tonight and use the breakthrough to create a magical treasure has long spread throughout Feizhou. He was also the focus of the topic. Everyone who met him celebrated that his grandpa was about to make a breakthrough. By becoming a golden elixir cultivator, you can create golden elixir spiritual treasures that can be used by golden elixir cultivators in the future. Both your reputation and strength will be greatly enhanced.
And since this person obtained the Dharma cultivation inheritance, the focus of the conversation has shifted away from him. Originally, he was just feeling a little uncomfortable inside, but it was hard to speak out, lest others think he was petty.
But since Chen Yuan was begging his grandfather, it would be unreasonable for him not to vent his resentment.
Others around him also smiled and agreed.
“He is just a casual cultivator from a remote area of Beizhou. He is so arrogant. He really thinks that he will be invincible in the world if he has obtained the inheritance of Dharma cultivation.”
“That’s right, if you are so arrogant, don’t you still have to come to Mr. Ning’s grandfather to make him the most precious treasure of Dharma cultivation?”
“No matter how you say it, you are just a foundation-building casual cultivator. In other words, we are all weapon cultivators and alchemy cultivators. As long as we are Dharma cultivators, how can it be Chen Yuan’s turn to win the Dharma Cultivation inheritance?”
The people surrounding Ning Laiping were all alchemy and weapon cultivators.
Either he came from a famous school, or it was inherited from his family.
Nanshu.
Weapon cultivation and alchemy cultivation are the most popular and have the highest status. Regardless of sword cultivation or magic cultivation, there is always time to seek weapons and alchemy cultivation on weekdays. In addition, weapon cultivation and alchemy cultivation require a lot of talent and accumulation, so it is difficult to get rid of them. The number of weapon cultivators and alchemy cultivators is extremely rare.
Therefore, a well-known weapon cultivator has far superior connections and status than other cultivators of the same level.
And these junior disciples of weapon cultivation and alchemy cultivation also get along with each other on weekdays, forming a small circle. On weekdays, even some golden elixir cultivators, in order to ask the elders behind them to do things, are quite kind to them, and they are mostly polite when talking to them. commend.
As the saying goes.
There are no white people in the exchanges, but there are now great Confucian scholars.
In ordinary families, they have also met a lot of golden elixir masters who can be regarded as distinguished guests. When those golden elixir masters ask their elders to do things, they are all very respectful, and the supply exceeds the demand. , a seller’s market.
After years of exposure, they would naturally not think that it was a big deal to ridicule a foundation-building casual cultivator, even if that foundation-building casual cultivator had obtained the Dharma cultivation inheritance. When they came to Feicheng, they had to learn to lower their heads and behave.
at this time–
Inside the auction, Chen Yang and others were already seated in the hall.
“Here.”
The scholar sitting cross-legged in the hall smacked his lips and said, “It seems that there is no need to pay for spiritual stones in this auction, someone will pay for us.”
“them?”
Fei Long looked up at the young men sitting in the Tianzihao private room on the second floor who were provoking outside just now, and grinned: “It makes sense, but I don’t know if this young man can grab the photo and save some spiritual stones. ”
Chen Yuan leaned back in his chair and flipped through the list of items in his arms. He then turned to the last page and saw an old man whose face was very similar to that of the young man who had provoked him just now.
There are also a few lines of small print introduction next to it. - .
“The peak foundation-building weapon cultivator is the supreme elder of the Ning family in Feicheng. Although he is at the peak foundation-building level, with the blessing of many spiritual treasures, he is quite threatening to the early stage of the golden elixir.”
“The first of the top ten weapon cultivators in Feizhou to build foundations, it is known as the weapon cultivator with the best chance of getting into the golden elixir in recent years.”
“He is good at forging magic treasures, and can customize spiritual treasures that are extremely suitable according to the methods commonly used by monks.”
“The highest bidder tonight will be awarded the unique treasure created by Ning Taiping with the help of the power of heaven and earth when he broke through the golden elixir outside the city tonight.”
“Attachment: The highest bid tonight is only for the qualification for forging. Forging fees, natural materials, treasures, etc. need to be prepared separately.” - ”I understand.”
Chen Yang nodded slightly, flipped through the auction list a few times, and said casually: “Does Ning Taiping’s grandson think that we are here to beg his grandfather to forge a magic treasure, so he is provocative?”
“That’s how it should be.”
Feilong nodded: “It seems that he is used to being arrogant in Feicheng. If his grandfather knew that he was like this, he would probably give him a big mouth.”
At this time, the auction has not started yet.
The beautiful woman hosting the auction on the stage is still preparing, and there are many monks who have just entered the stage and are looking for a place to sit down.
Just then——
An old man with a white beard wearing a rather luxurious robe walked up to the stage with a cold face, and released his peak foundation-building cultivation level without hesitation: “Everyone here must know me, I am Ning Taiping.”
“I just heard from my grandson that there is a Dharma cultivator from out of town who said that the weapon cultivators in Feicheng are all rabble?”
“I would like to see which cultivator is so bold in our Feicheng City!”
Although the tone was inquiring, his eagle-like pupils were full of gloom. He stared straight at Chen Yuan who was leaning on the chair through the crowd and said word by word: “I heard from my son that the man calls himself Chen.” “Hong is the lucky man who just won the Dharma cultivation inheritance in the Heavenly Dao Edict.”
“Do you know where that person is?”
“I want to see where this person’s courage comes from?!”
“.”
The originally noisy hall suddenly fell silent. Many people with slightly strange expressions looked in the direction of Ning Taiping, looking at a young man leaning on a chair with a calm expression and his legs crossed.
Is this person Chen Yuan?
He looks really young and has the appearance of a genius.
Although Ning Taiping didn’t directly say that this person was Chen Yuan, the meaning behind his words was almost a name. Do these two people have a grudge?
Ning Taiping, who was standing on the stage, glanced at everyone in the audience with a flash of satisfaction in his eyes: “I won’t disturb your elegance due to some minor conflicts. The auction will start soon. Everyone, please take your seats.”
In private room No. 3, Tianzi, on the second floor.
A woman who still had charm and was wearing a cheongsam with a low collar and a slit, gently swayed the spirit wine in her glass, looked at Ning Taiping who was walking down the stage and said with a half-smile: “Well, Chen Yang is still young after all, and he can’t play with the old monster Ning Taiping.” ”
“Ning Taiping also knows that Chen Yuan has something to ask of him tonight, so he definitely doesn’t dare to refute his face in person, and then suppresses Chen Yuan’s newly rising momentum to build momentum for himself.”
“Publish it in the future.”
“That is, Chen Yuan, who has won the inheritance of Dharma Cultivation, must be as obedient as his grandson in front of Ning Taiping. Hasn’t Ning Taiping always wanted to be the next leader of the Weapon Cultivation Alliance?”
“With this momentum and the breakthrough to the golden elixir cultivation tonight, it is really possible for Ning Taiping to take this position when the alliance leader re-elects his position in seven days.”
Next to the woman, stood an old man in linen clothes. At this time, he looked at Chen Yang who was standing in the audience with disdain: “This boy is younger. He originally won the inheritance of Dharma cultivation at the stage of success.”
“Being suppressed like this by Ning Taiping will leave a knot in my heart, and maybe my morale will be broken up a lot.”
“Originally, it only takes a while to settle down, but once you step into the golden elixir, you will definitely be able to make a name for yourself.”
“Now that I have been humiliated in public, the strange looks from around me are like being pierced directly into my heart. This energy has been scattered, and it will be difficult to gather it back together. It can be basically said to be useless. This kind of casual cultivator who suddenly has an adventure , it’s so unbearable.”
“normal.”
The woman put her long, snow-white legs on a low stool beside her, looked at Chen Yuan with amusement, and said with a smile: “Building momentum is to build your own momentum by swallowing other people’s momentum.”
“That Chen Yuan has no roots and foundation, and he wants to beg others. He is rushing to serve as a stepping stone for others. No one can stop him.”
“My temper is a bit impatient after all.”
“If you find a place to practice hard first and digest all the Dharma inheritance, he will have a place in next year’s Tianjiao rankings. If you really want to get yourself a handy spiritual treasure before the Tianjiao Competition starts, come and ask for help. , thereby losing face and dignity.”
“But even so, he is still a person with the inheritance of Dharma cultivation. If he can be brought into the family to work for the family, that is not impossible.”
“Grandpa, look at Chen Yang down there. He is still pretending to be calm. He must have broken his teeth inside.”
In room No. 7 of Tianzi.
Ning Wuping looked at Chen Yuan who was sitting under the lobby and smiled happily: “Grandpa, you are still domineering.”
“snort.”
Ning Taiping felt quite happy at this time. He touched his white beard, put a cup of boiling tea to his mouth and took a sip. Then he pretended to be calm and said with disdain: “It’s just a little kid, scold him a few times.” “Does he dare to talk back?”
“Dare you say something back? When I take the position of leader of the Weapon Cultivator Alliance, I will call on all the Weapon Cultivator and Alchemy Cultivators not to do his business. If there is a casual cultivator who has no family support behind him, don’t worry about him. In a few years he will be gone.” It will make everyone disappear.”
“I have already prepared a golden elixir with a lot of money. Tonight I will use the second-grade golden elixir to enter the golden elixir realm!”
“This Feicheng should be renamed Ningcheng from now on.”
Chen Yuan was leaning on the back of his chair patiently waiting for the auction to start. Many comments in the venue reached his ears, all of which were compliments of Ning Taiping and pity for him. He didn’t take it seriously at first.
until–
“Senior Ning is said to have prepared the golden elixir a long time ago. Tonight, he will enter the golden elixir stage with the second-grade golden elixir on the top of Lufeng outside the city. This Ning family will soon be the golden elixir family. Under the protection of senior Ning It will be prosperous for hundreds of years.”
“Good.”
Chen Yun suddenly chuckled when he heard the news. His tenth-grade golden elixir required nine second-grade golden elixirs as melting elixir materials. He was still having a headache. These second-grade golden elixirs were not something that ordinary people could form. Where to collect.
As a result, the first one has already been delivered to the door.
They are just weapon cultivators who have just entered the first level of the Golden Core, so it is not that difficult to kill. The biggest means of crushing the Golden Core against foundation-building monks is spiritual attacks. I guess they have not learned how to attack with spiritual consciousness when they have just stepped into the Golden Core. There is no means of crushing it.
In this case, it is just a half-step golden elixir.
What’s more, as a weapon cultivator, most of his own strength comes from external forces.
He didn’t even need to self-destruct the entry, he could kill it with his own strength, and this was the first time he saw someone break through the golden elixir in front of everyone, and he was not afraid of being attacked and killed by his enemies. He had a kind of disregard for the sake of building momentum. All postures.
There was no long wait, the auction started soon.
The first lot.
“The first lot.”
“Lingbao, the foundation-building mid-grade alchemy furnace ‘Earth Fire Cauldron’, starting price.”
“.”
Chen Yuan leaned back on his chair and waited for the auction items with slightly lowered eyes. He had basically read the auction list, and there was nothing he found useful. Only those two entries were useful to him.
It didn’t take long. - “Lot 13.”
“Jade slip of entry, white entry”
“Entry name”: The posture of forging a weapon.
“Entry level”: white.
“Entry Effect”: When you forge a spiritual treasure, your success rate will increase slightly.
“The starting price is 100 spirit stones, and each bid must not be less than 100 spirit stones.” – This entry can be regarded as the finale, and many monks sitting in the lobby enthusiastically raised their bids.
Soon the price reached 1,200 spirit stones, and the bidding price gradually slowed down.
“Third time”
Just when the hammer was about to fall, Feilong held up his sign and loudly said: “1,300 spirit stones.”
Almost as soon as he finished speaking, in Room No. 7 of Tianzihao, Ning Wuping, who was originally not interested in bidding, raised his eyebrows provocatively and looked at Fei Long sitting in the lobby: “1,400 spirit stones.”
“Hey.”
Feilong laughed and was about to continue raising his sign when he was stopped by Chen Yang.
“Don’t increase the price. The more spiritual stones he spends, the less spiritual stones we will get later.”
“clear.”
“Lot Fourteen.”
“Jade slips of entries, green entries”
“Name of Entry”: God of Forging.
“Entry level”: green.
“Entry Effect”: Every time you forge a spiritual treasure, there is a low chance of adding a special effect randomly.
“The starting price is 100 spirit stones, and each bid must not be less than 100 spirit stones.”
This time, before Fei Long had a chance to bid, the entry was auctioned off by Na Ning Wuping for 3,900 spirit stones. This price was higher than the price of the green entry that had been auctioned in Wentianfang City. Out a lot.
After all, this entry can be said to be a god-level entry for weapon cultivation.
With this entry, the forged Lingbao can be sold at a better price in the future.
“This weapon cultivator is indeed rich enough.”
Feilong met the provocative gaze of Ning Wuping in Room 7, Tianzi, and said with a smile: “Nearly four thousand spiritual stones are thrown away at will. The people watching are really yearning for good weapon cultivation.”
“The fifteenth lot!”
“Senior Ning is qualified to use the power of heaven and earth to forge treasures when he breaks through the golden elixir.”
It’s also the real highlight of the night.
Many people came here specifically for this purpose.
Bidding calls came one after another, and those houses with high-end properties also kept bidding. In the end, the price stopped at 12,300 spirit stones. This was a very outrageous price. After all, the price of so many spirit stones was just a qualification.
Not counting the forging fees and the heavenly materials and earthly treasures required to forge spiritual treasures.
Even if the spiritual treasure created by the weapon cultivator with the help of the power of heaven and earth when he broke through the great realm is nearly twice as powerful as the spiritual treasure of the same level, it is definitely not worth 12,300 spiritual stones. This price is purely unfair.
I don’t know what kind of grievance was sitting in room No. 9 that day.
Many people in the lobby were quite shocked by the price and talked among themselves, not knowing why it came to such an outrageous price.
But Chen Yuan never called out the price from the beginning to the end.
To be honest, he looks down on this level of spiritual treasures. The top three Tiandao spiritual treasures in the Tianjiao rankings are his goals. If this kind of spiritual treasure wants to exert its full power, it must become a natal spiritual treasure. He simply doesn’t like it. Too lazy to waste effort on cultivating.
He hasn’t cultivated a name yet, but he has obtained all the heavenly treasures.
“Hahahahahaha!!!”
A rather hearty laughter came from Room No. 7 of Tianzi. Ning Taiping, who looked quite strong with a white beard, was standing by the window. He clasped his hands and bowed to Room No. 9 opposite: “Thank you. Friends supported me, which made my Taoist friends lose money.”
A dull hoarse sound also came from Tianzi No. 9.
“Senior Ning is joking. Everyone knows that Senior Ning is the number one foundation-building weapon cultivator in Feizhou. After entering the Golden Core, he will be the number one weapon cultivator in Daxia with just a little precipitation.”
“I missed it. These people don’t know the meaning of the word “Senior Ning”.
“The value of these more than 10,000 spirit stone flowers.”
“When Senior Ning officially steps into the position of the first weapon cultivator in Daxia in the future, my treasure, which was created by Senior Ning after breaking through the golden elixir, will also be of great commemorative significance.”
“Hahahahaha.” Ning Taiping was quite impressed by what he said, and he touched his beard and said cheerfully: “Fellow Taoist, I love you so much. In this case, we won’t delay and set off immediately to Feicheng Luwai. Under the witness of everyone Break through and use the power of heaven and earth to forge the treasure on the spot.”
“good!”
Feicheng, Lufeng.
Therefore, the shape of the peak resembles the forge of a weapon cultivator, hence the name. It is also a holy place in the minds of countless weapon cultivators nearby. The location chosen by Ning Taiping to break through the golden elixir is at the top of the furnace peak.
At this time, Ning Taiping was already sitting cross-legged and working on his mental skills. Next to him was a spirit gathering array composed of 7,749 middle-grade spirit stones.
There was a golden elixir quietly placed in the jade box in front of him.
At this time, many people had gathered several feet away, mostly weapon cultivators, to witness the historic moment of Ning Taiping’s golden elixir breakthrough.
“I finally figured it out.”
Fei Long, who was standing in the crowd, couldn’t help but smacked his tongue and said: “Again, he suppressed Brother Xi in public, and he hired someone to buy the treasure he made when he was forming pills at a high price, and he chose Lufeng, which is a sacred place in the cultivation of weapons. Local breakthrough golden elixir.”
“This old man is building momentum.”
It is not difficult to distinguish, but anyone with a discerning eye can see how outrageous it is to buy more than 10,000 spiritual stones to qualify. With those spiritual stones, you can buy a good golden elixir early stage spiritual treasure. .
If you use it to buy a foundation-building pinnacle spiritual treasure, isn’t your brain going crazy? And it’s just for qualifications, forging fees and natural materials and treasures have to be paid extra.
It’s really a clumsy method.
But it has to be said that it works very well. As long as someone with intentions spreads the story, it will have a long-tail positive effect on Ning Taiping, similar to buying horse bones for thousands of dollars.
“In a way.”
Fei Long stood there with his arms folded and raised his eyebrows and said: “This old man is very good at playing and has a lot of dramas. If he didn’t regard Brother Yu as a stepping stone, maybe this old man would have really built up his own momentum. “
“With this momentum, we can become a well-known golden elixir cultivator in the future, and the Ning family will become a truly big family in Feizhou from now on.”
“only.”
“What a pity.”
