An Auction
Lulliere persuaded Ning Qi earnestly for a long time. In the end, Ning Qi only smiled and said nothing. He sighed in his heart.
He knew that Ning Qi wouldn't listen to his advice. Only by breaking the wall would Ning Qi turn back.
"Alright, little brother. Elixir recipes are very precious. Even our Yan Mountain Auction House doesn't have them. However, there is an auction tonight. As far as I know, there will be a total of three elixir recipes. However, these elixir recipes are incomplete. They are missing some crucial parts. After all, no Demon Refinement Master will take out complete elixir recipes to sell. Even if they do, the price will be terrifying …"
Lulliere said.
"Incomplete elixir recipes …"
Ning Qi's eyes moved slightly. Such elixir recipes seemed to be suitable for him. With his current wealth, he couldn't afford a complete elixir recipe.
As for which crucial parts were missing, he could go to the top cultivation training field to slowly study them. There was still an Alchemy Emperor's remnant soul cultivating in the Creation Field. When the time came, he could also call Alchemy Emperor Devouring Dragon out. The two of them could study the elixir recipes of the Demon Race together. It would take at least two to ten years. To the outside world, it would only be a few days.
Lulliere seemed to think highly of Ning Qi. He personally arranged a room for Ning Qi to rest until tonight. Ning Qi had a good impression of him because he had taken the time to ask the other staff members. They didn't know what would be auctioned tonight. If Lulliere hadn't told Ning Qi that there would be elixir recipes tonight, Ning Qi might have missed these elixir recipes.
In the room, Ning Qi's mind moved slightly. A piece of white paper appeared in front of him. Then, he grasped the air with his fingers. Faint immortal qi surged out and condensed into a writing brush.
He put the brush down!
A third of a word was drawn. The white paper and writing brush turned into ashes with a bang. Ning Qi felt the blood in his body surge. His physical body, which was countless times stronger than before, was in a dull pain. It was as if his muscles were being torn apart by some mysterious power.
He didn't realize that a whirlpool had condensed in the air above his room. However, as the writing brush and paper exploded, the whirlpool immediately disappeared.
Several pairs of eyes in Yan Mountain City suddenly looked up at the sky. Their eyes revealed a trace of doubt.
In the room.
Ning Qi sighed softly.
When Shengong Immortal Lord wanted to possess him, the System showed him nine marks. The first one was the word "Jiang". He did not expect that even though his cultivation had improved a lot, he still could not draw out this word.
"What exactly does that character represent? Is it the existence of a person, or the existence of a power? Regardless of what it is, they actually have the ability to influence the natural laws of the Heavenly Daos. It's truly terrifying. Compared to them, I'm nothing but an ant …."
Soon, it was night time. A special staff came to remind Ning Qi that the auction was about to begin. Under his guidance, Ning Qi came to a hall from another passage. Inside, there were about hundreds of devils sitting in groups of three to five. Seeing Ning Qi's arrival, they all cast their eyes on him.
"It's the junior who defeated Yang Gou."
"He's also participating in the auction?"
"I heard that he sold an artifact to Urriel today. Could there be something he wants at the auction? Interesting. "
Ning Qi casually picked a seat and sat down. The Devil Tribe was different from the Central Mainland. In the Central Mainland, those who participated in auctions would more or less have to conceal their identities. But now, these guys openly showed their true faces. Maybe it was because Yan Mountain City had a written rule that prevented people from robbing after leaving the Yan Mountain Auction House?
The devils in the hall were sizing up Ning Qi, and Ning Qi was also sizing them up. Their gazes met one by one, looking at each devil's attributes. In their opinion, Ning Qi was showing off. In their hearts, the degree of arrogance of Ning Qi once again increased by a level.
The most famous half-step human demons in Yan Mountain City were indeed Yang Gou and the other three. But that was because they were young and belonged to the genius level.
However, there were many half-step human demons of the older generation. There were quite a few of them in the hall. Moreover, some of them were at the early stage of the Human Demon and even the middle stage of the Human Demon.
Therefore, they were not that afraid of Ning Qi. They just regarded him as a talented junior genius. If they really fought, many of them felt that they could crush Ning Qi with one finger.
"Eh? Young Master Beixuan, you are also here to participate in this auction?"
A few devil squads walked in. When they saw Ning Qi, their eyes lit up. Ning Qi felt that they looked familiar. He should have seen them in the Mountain and Sea Alliance.
After chuckling and chatting for a while, this group of fellows excitedly sat down beside Ning Qi, as if they were very familiar with each other.
Not long after, when the auction was about to start, another three people came together.
"Dao En, Pingtian, Kong Yan? The three of them are also here to participate in this auction? Could it be that they received news that there is a treasure that is worth their attention? "
The devils in the hall were thinking quickly. Although Dao En and the other two were only half-step human demons, their backgrounds were very strong. They could not be taken lightly.
Even the middle-stage human demon experts looked at the three fearfully. They felt a little uneasy. If the three of them also wanted that item, their wealth might not even be comparable to that of these three juniors.
When Dao En and the other two saw that Ning Qi was also here, they were slightly startled. Then, they smiled and went straight to the seats in the front and sat down. On the way, they greeted the devils around them.
When the auction started, the door behind them was tightly shut. At the same time, Ning Qi felt a surge of demonic Qi coming from the surrounding walls, instantly enveloping the entire hall. This was a defensive forbidden technique, a bit like the cage that Sheepshead had used before. Judging from the intensity of the demonic Qi, the cultivation of the person who set up the forbidden technique should not be simple. If he did not have the Dragon-Slayer Saber, Ning Qi might not have the confidence to forcibly break through. Naturally, it would not be easy for the people outside to force their way in.
On the high platform at the end of the hall, a devil with an early-stage human demon aura appeared. He wore black clothes and had a faint smile on his face. Obviously, he was the host of this auction.
"Ladies and gentlemen, today the Yan Mountain Auction House has a total of 33 treasures for auction. Just like before, the best items will be left for last. Now, let's start the auction of the first item. This is an ancient elixir recipe …"
