After a round of inspection, the appraiser clicked his tongue in admiration. The materials of these three weapons were the best of the best, so much so that even he couldn't recognize what they were made of. Moreover, the refining techniques were extremely proficient, with almost no flaws to be found. It was unknown which refining grandmaster had made them.
"Young Master, these three weapons are all treasures among high-grade earth-step treasures. They are completely qualified to be auctioned. However, the bow and axe are still acceptable, but this life-stealing hook is an unpopular weapon. I can't guarantee whether it will fetch a good price or not. Does Young Master want to auction them all?" The appraiser asked with a bow.
Lu Xuan nodded, "Take them all. It's none of your business if they don't fetch a good price. How about this pile of Profound Spirit Sand Crystals? Is it enough to be auctioned? "
The appraiser chuckled, "The value of this Profound Spirit Sand Crystal is definitely not lower than the Blue Ice Bow. With such rich earth attribute energy, it is definitely the best among the Profound Spirit Sand Crystals. Compared to the other finished products, with this pile of Profound Spirit Sand Crystals, as long as you can find a skilled refining grandmaster, you will be able to customize a suitable weapon for yourself. Moreover, the Profound Spirit Sand Crystal's uses are not limited to refining. I believe that there will be many bidders."
Lu Xuan nodded in satisfaction. It was naturally the best if he could bring all four treasures to the auction. Lu Xuan then signed a contract. After the appraiser left behind a certificate, he took Lu Xuan's four treasures and hurriedly left. He still had to quickly report these four treasures.
As time passed, the atmosphere of the auction became more and more intense. The items that the Vast Ocean Pavilion brought out also gradually rose to a higher level. All kinds of heavenly treasures, elixirs, cultivation methods, martial skills, and other rare and exotic items emerged one after another. The voices of bidding also rose and fell.
Lu Xuan only watched quietly. Ever since the first bid, he hadn't called out a price. These things couldn't arouse his interest. However, there were many people like Lu Xuan. At least, up until now, Lu Xuan hadn't seen anyone in the other rooms make a bid. The later the items were better, and those were the targets of the people in the private rooms.
At this moment, the Vast Ocean Pavilion brought out a treasure that once again attracted Lu Xuan's attention.
"This pair of parasites is called the Yin-Yang Soul Breaking Parasite. Perhaps some friends don't know about it. What I want to say is that the method of raising these parasites is a secret of the Sikong family. The Yin parasite harms others, while the Yang parasite benefits the parasite. Each pair of parasites are raised together from a young in pairs. The Vast Ocean Pavilion was fortunate enough to obtain a complete set of parasites. Whether it is for research or planting, they are both good.
Shopkeeper Xu smiled and said, "However, the Vast Ocean Pavilion has always been honest in doing business. Although I really want to get a good price for this parasite, I still have to give everyone a piece of advice. The Sikong family treasures this parasite very much. If you don't want to go against the Sikong family, it's best not to bid."
Chen Xiaohan grabbed Lu Xuan's arm excitedly and said, "Lu Xuan, the Yin-Yang Soul Breaking Parasite! It's the Yin-Yang Soul Breaking Parasite! "
"I know." Lu Xuan's breathing also became heavier. He couldn't help but stand up from his chair, as if he wanted to get a better look at the parasite.
Bi 'er was a little confused. She didn't know why Lu Xuan was so interested in this pair of parasites.
"The starting price is one hundred supreme grade primal stones. Each increment must be no less than ten. The bidding begins now." Shopkeeper Xu announced the starting price.
"One hundred and fifty supreme grade primal stones!" Lu Xuan was the first one to bid.
Everyone looked towards room number 9 in unison as they wondered exactly who was seated within it. Obviously, this person didn't take the Sikong Clan seriously. After all, the Yin-Yang Soulsevering Venomous Insect was a secret of the Sikong Clan that wasn't passed down to outsiders. Even though it was extremely difficult to find the method to nurture a pair of venomous insects, they would surely think of a way to seize it back just in case.
"Two hundred supreme grade primal stones." A calm voice was heard. Lu Xuan looked up and saw that the person who made the bid was right across from him. It was from Room 1.
"Who is in the first private room?" Lu Xuan asked Bi 'er.
Bi 'er smiled and said, "Please forgive me, young master. We can't reveal the privacy of the guests in the private room. If someone asks about you, Bi' er won't say anything."
Lu Xuan nodded and didn't bother Bi 'er anymore. Since that person could sit in the first private room, it was obvious that he wasn't an ordinary person. But no matter who it was, he had to get the parasite.
"Three hundred." Lu Xuan continued to raise the price.
The person in the first private room was silent. At this moment, no one else raised the price. Ordinary people wouldn't dare to risk offending the Sikong family to get this pair of parasites. And people with high status wouldn't risk offending the Sikong family at the same time. The people in the first private room and the ninth private room were all three parties.
"Four hundred. I'm a little interested in this thing. I want to take it back and study it." The person in room number one finally spoke again. This time, he spoke a lot more, and many people below the stage could hear him clearly. Many people could already tell who this person was from his voice. They didn't expect this person to come as well. It seemed that many good things would fall into his hands today.
Hearing this person, Shopkeeper Xu shook his head slightly. He raised the auction hammer in his hand and was about to slam it down. Obviously, he didn't think that the person in the ninth private room would compete with this person.
"Five hundred." Lu Xuan's expression didn't change. Bi 'er looked at Lu Xuan in surprise. She was a little confused. Lu Xuan had the Jiuhua Alliance's Elder's Medallion. Of course he had to give this person some face. Why was he still bidding?
Shopkeeper Xu's auction hammer stopped in mid-air. He stared blankly at the person in the ninth private room. This was an auction, and it had to be fair and square. Now that the person in the ninth private room had made a bid, how could he force it to go to the first private room?
"If you want it, then it's yours." The person in the first private room was silent for a moment, then spoke again. He seemed to be a good-tempered person.
Shopkeeper Xu breathed a sigh of relief. He slammed the hammer down steadily. "Congratulations to the person in the ninth private room for the parasite."
Chen Xiaohan nudged Lu Xuan's arm. "Lu Xuan, from the look on Shopkeeper Xu's face, it seems that the person in the first private room is someone important. Did you offend him by doing this?"
A cold smile crossed Lu Xuan's face. "I don't care who he is. This parasite is mine. At the very least, it will help Bing 'er wake up."
Bi 'er handed Lu Xuan the wooden plate with the Yin Yang Soul Severing Parasite's auction number. "Congratulations, Young Master Lu," she said softly.
"Thank you for the warning." Lu Xuan smiled. He accepted the wooden tablet and sat back down.
After the small interlude, the auction quickly returned to normal. The prices of the items continued to rise. Finally, with a wave of Shopkeeper Xu's hand, six beautiful young girls pushed three display tables onto the stage.
Shopkeeper Xu said with a beaming smile, "Everyone, please open your eyes wide. Those friends who are looking for a suitable weapon are in luck. The Vast Ocean Pavilion spent a lot of effort and managed to purchase three high-grade earth-step artifacts from a mysterious powerhouse! Our Vast Sea Pavilion's senior appraisers have unanimously determined that these three artifacts are absolutely treasures among high-grade earth-step artifacts. Moreover, they were forged by the same refiner grandmaster. The materials used and the refiner's techniques are top notch! If any of you can obtain one of these artifacts, your strength will increase by thirty percent. "
As soon as Shopkeeper Xu's words came out, the atmosphere of the auction house suddenly became lively. Many people sat up straight and stared at the three display tables next to Shopkeeper Xu. For the vast majority of martial artists, a weapon was equivalent to half of their life. The number of martial artists who suffered losses at the hands of their enemies due to their inferior weapons definitely exceeded seventy percent. Now that three high-grade earth-step artifacts had appeared, how could they not look forward to it? A high-grade earth-step artifact was a treasure even in a Fifth Grade Sect. Only those who had reached the intermediate stage of the Great Void Realm could possess such a weapon.
"Xuan, it's your turn." Little Tanuki excitedly said, standing up from Lu Xuan's shoulder and looking down.
Lu Xuan's interest was also piqued. He wanted to see how much these three weapons would sell for.
"The first weapon is a longbow called the Vast Sea Mysterious Ice Bow. It is completely blue in color and is cold to the touch. It has the effect of refreshing the mind. We specially asked someone to test it. The same archer who uses this bow can increase their accuracy by ten percent and their strength by thirty percent. Friends who are good with bows and arrows must not miss this opportunity. The auction will now begin. The starting price is five hundred top-grade primal stones."
Vast Sea Mysterious Ice Pavilion? Lu Xuan smiled. Sure enough, it sounded much more domineering than his Blue Ice Bow. It was definitely not an ordinary item.
"Six hundred!"
"Seven hundred!"
"Seven hundred and fifty!"
… …
The sounds of bids could be heard from every corner of the auction house. There were many cultivators who used bows and arrows in the Sky Sword Continent. Among the many weapons, the number of people who used swords was the highest, followed by those who used blades. The number of people who used spears and bows was almost equal to the number of people who used bows and arrows. The reason why there were so many people who used bows and arrows was because after mastering a weapon, many cultivators would cultivate bows and arrows as well. After all, bows and arrows could achieve effects that melee weapons could not. Regardless of whether it was for long-range sniping or chasing enemies, it was extremely effective.
Seeing the price of the Vast Sea Mysterious Ice Bow rise, the smile on Lu Xuan's face grew wider and wider. In a short period of time, the price of the Vast Sea Mysterious Ice Bow had climbed to one thousand two hundred top-grade primal stones. It was already equivalent to the price of the Deep Sea Giant Flood Dragon's Yao Core. A Yao Core that could only be used to increase one's strength could not be compared to a weapon that was equivalent to half one's life.
At this moment, it was not just the cultivators below who were bidding. Even the people in the private rooms had begun to bid. However, this time, the cultivators below did not choose to give way. If they were to give away everything, then there would be no need to participate in this auction. Moreover, this was something that involved one's life. How could they give up on it? Upper Earth-ranked weapons were not common. If they missed this opportunity, they would not be able to get another one.
