After Ning Qi left Xiong Lie's trio, he flew towards the direction of Chao Feng Market. Actually, even if Philo didn't say anything, he had already planned to split up. After all, he needed to bring the Chao Yin Pavilion's Pavilion Master and the others to the Dark Parliament's fifth district.
After coming out of the Forsaken Land of the Gods, they had automatically become dark cultivators and couldn't see the light of day. Without the qualifications to become a dark cultivator, their cultivation would stop at this realm.
However, before returning to the fifth district, Ning Qi planned to search for the Burning Karma Fruit. If he could buy a Burning Karma Fruit, he would have three Burning Karma Fruits, which would be enough to wash away all his karma.
Half a month later.
Chao Feng Market.
Ning Qi had already taken off the Purple Mask of Light and the Mountain Moving Armor. These two items were far too eye-catching. Anyone who paid a little attention to them would be able to deduce Ning Qi's movements.
"Did you understand what I told you?"
Ning Qi looked at Lin Mei and smiled.
Lin Mei was a native cultivator of Chao Feng Court, so she was very familiar with everything here. Therefore, to find the Burning Karma Fruit, it was best for her to gather information.
"Understood, I will do my best to find the Burning Karma Fruit for Young Master!"
Lin Mei nodded and left.
In the blink of an eye, more than a month had passed. Lin Mei had used all her channels but still couldn't find any news of the Burning Karma Fruit. Half a year later, just as Ning Qi was about to leave Chao Feng Market, Lin Mei suddenly appeared with an excited expression.
"Young Master, I received news that there will be an underground auction. I heard that someone will auction the Burning Karma Fruit this time!"
"Underground auction?"
Ning Qi's eyes moved slightly. Lin Mei explained in a low voice, "Some items have unknown origins, so no one dares to auction them in Chao Feng Court. It's easy for the victim's family to find clues and cause unnecessary trouble. Therefore, Chao Feng Market will host underground auctions from time to time.
But Young Master, don't worry, the host of the auction is also from the Feng Family, so they are very reliable. "
"Hmm, then what are the conditions to enter?"
Ning Qi nodded.
"The entrance fee is slightly more expensive, ten thousand essence stones per person."
Lin Mei said.
Ten thousand essence stones?
It was equivalent to 1% of the wealth of an ordinary cultivator at the Dao Seeking Realm in the Great Perfection Realm. However, from the looks of it, the value of the items sold in this auction would not be too low. It was indeed possible that the Burning Karma Fruit would appear.
That night, under the guidance of Lin Mei, Ning Qi came to the most prosperous central area of the Chao Feng Market. Finally, the two stopped in front of a brightly lit courtyard.
At the entrance of the courtyard, two stone lions emanating spiritual energy seemed to be staring at the two of them with a strange gaze.
"What next?"
Ning Qi smiled.
The underground auction was held here. What Lin Mei said was right. The one who hosted this auction should be the Feng Family's people. This was equivalent to eating both black and white.
Even if the victim's family knew about it, they probably wouldn't dare to say a word.
"Young Master, just throw the Origin Essence Stones into their mouths. I'll wait at the door."
Lin Mei pointed at the stone lion.
"Forget it, let's go in together."
Ning Qi smiled.
Then he threw 20,000 Origin Essence Stones into the stone lion's mouth. After a few breaths, the dark red gate slowly opened. Ning Qi and Lin Mei walked into the courtyard, and the gate automatically closed behind them.
"Both of you, this way please."
A female cultivator in revealing clothes had been waiting for a long time. When Ning Qi and Lin Mei entered the courtyard, she immediately greeted them.
Under her guidance, the two soon came to a large hall. There were already seven or eight hundred cultivators with different expressions sitting in the hall. Only one-tenth of them were from the Human Clan, and the rest were from different clans.
"There are a total of thousands of people here. Even if there are no more people coming later, just these seven or eight hundred people in front of us can collect seven or eight million Origin Essence Stones. No wonder the Feng Family cultivators want to come out to open an underground auction. Money is too easy to earn."
After Ning Qi and Lin Mei sat down, they looked around.
Another two hours passed.
The remaining empty seats were occupied. When the seats were completely filled, the door of the hall slowly closed, and a wave of prohibition flashed away.
"Young Master, no one is allowed to leave without permission during the auction, so this door is prohibited by the Feng Family cultivators. Only when the auction is over, will the people who bought the items leave first. The rest of the people have to wait here for three days before they can leave."
Lin Mei transmitted her voice.
"This is good. It can prevent people from killing and robbing, but it can only prevent those who didn't buy anything."
Ning Qi nodded slightly.
"Everyone, you should know the rules of this place, right?"
A figure suddenly appeared on the stage in front of everyone. The person was wearing a black robe, and his entire face was covered by the black robe. His appearance could not be seen clearly. He exuded an aura of the Great Completion of the Destiny State. Most of the people who came to the auction were Dao Querying cultivators. Karma Realm cultivators only made up a small portion, and Destiny State cultivators were even fewer. Therefore, most of the cultivators were suppressed by the aura of this person.
A trace of seriousness appeared in their eyes.
"Since there are no objections, let the auction begin."
The person in the black robe waited for a few breaths. Seeing that no one spoke, he slowly raised his hand. Immediately, someone carried a plate up to the stage. On the plate was a pearl that was glowing with blue light.
"This is a Dragon Pearl that a Karma Realm dragon turned into after he died. It has miraculous effects. Those who understand will naturally understand. The starting price is two million Origin Essence Stones, and each increment must be no less than a hundred thousand."
The person in the black robe grabbed the blue Dragon Pearl and said to the crowd.
Those who understand will naturally understand?
Not even an introduction?
This is an underground auction after all …
Ning Qi noticed that many people were confused, but most of them were Dao Querying cultivators. Many Karma Realm cultivators, on the other hand, had serious looks on their faces and were ready to make a move. In the end, the Dragon Pearl was won by a cultivator in the early stage of the Karma Realm at the price of three million. He didn't leave after buying the Dragon Pearl, but sat calmly on his seat. However, he didn't make any bids for the following items.
It was highly possible that he had spent all his wealth on the Dragon Pearl, so he was waiting for the auction to end before leaving. The Blue Dragon Pearl should be the appetizer. The prices of the items auctioned later ranged from 300,000 to 1,000,000. There were a lot of them, and the transaction speed was also very fast. In less than two hours, more than a hundred items had been sold.
If the host of the auction took a five percent cut from each item, he would have earned the wealth of several Dao Querying cultivators in the Great Completion Realm in those two hours!
After that, the prices of the items got higher and higher. The Dao Querying cultivators gradually fell silent. It was the turn of the Karma Realm cultivators to make a bid, but the few Fate Realm cultivators rarely made a move.
"I believe you all know what this fruit is. It's the Burning Karma Fruit, the best spiritual medicine for Karma Realm cultivators to advance to the Fate Realm. The starting price is ten million Origin Essence Stones."
The person in the black robe held a fruit in his hand and showed it to the crowd.
