Now, everyone was looking at the stage nervously. On the stage was an auctioneer with a white beard. He was trying his best to introduce a sparkling jade-like item in his hand.
"This is a treasure given to us by an Immortal. Now, he has entrusted us to auction it. If you wear it for a long time, ordinary people can live longer and be immune to diseases. If you cultivate with it, you can also slowly increase your cultivation base. It is a priceless treasure. Everyone, don't miss out on it."
After the previous round, the auctioneer placed a jade box emitting cold air in front of him.
The auctioneer took out a pair of special gloves and gently opened the box. Due to the special design of the table, everyone below could see a jade-green jade pendant placed in the box. Although it was only the size of a baby's palm, the auctioneer's bewitching words cheered everyone up.
After all, most of the people here were ordinary people. Only a few people had cultivation. However, to them, this was not just a treasure. It could even be passed down as a family heirloom.
Gu Zheng could hear the heavy breathing of the people around him. It seemed that this item was very attractive to everyone. However, they could only look at it. Even if they sold it, they could not afford a single fragment.
Gu Zheng looked at it uninterestedly. It was just a defective item made by an Immortal. The auctioneer was right. This item was indeed very beneficial to ordinary people. However, it did not have much effect on those above the third stage.
There was an almost invisible crack on the outside. Too much spiritual energy was damaged inside. It could not only prolong one's life but also prolong one's life. No one knew which wastrel had wasted such a precious material. It seemed that it had been hit by something. With such a damaged area, all the spiritual energy would dissipate in a few hundred years.
However, these people did not know that the people below were calling out bids. The atmosphere was getting more and more heated. It seemed that the auction was coming to an end.
However, in the end, it was still won by a person in a private room on the second floor. The price was shocking. It could even be said that it was all the assets of an ordinary rich person.
Then, a box was carried up by a few people. When it was placed on the ground, a heavy sound was heard. It seemed to be heavy.
Everyone craned their necks to look at the box, trying to guess what was inside.
At this time, every single Type 5 powerhouse walked over from the side, causing everyone to be even more curious.
"I'm sure everyone has their own thoughts. That's right, the item up for auction this time is a weapon. It's our final item. Furthermore, it's an extraordinary weapon. It's said that it has been blessed by an Immortal. Without a certain level of strength, you won't even be able to pick it up." The auctioneer deliberately whetted everyone's appetite, but he didn't reveal the item.
"Hurry up and open it so that everyone can see the real thing." A melodious voice came from the second floor. Although the voice was soft, everyone could hear it clearly in the midst of all the noise.
Although they heard that it was a weapon, most people dispelled the idea of wanting it. To them, a good weapon was just a decoration. However, there were some powerful juniors in their families who were excited. Who didn't know the importance of a good weapon?
Gu Zheng also straightened his body, because this was the source of the different feeling he got from it.
"Since everyone is so impatient, let's take a look first. I'll introduce it to everyone." The auctioneer signaled the warrior next to him to start.
The warrior in black directly pressed the hidden button next to him. With a click, a breathtaking aura emerged from it. Before seeing it, one could tell that it was an extraordinary item just by feeling the aura.
As the warrior took it out, whether it was the people in the hall downstairs or the people in the box next to it, they all let out a low cry.
The shiny spear gave people a sense of thickness and dignity. The sharp spear light reflected by the luminous pearls seemed incomparably sharp. Especially the domineering appearance, some warriors were even more tempted.
"We've personally tested the sharpness of this weapon. Even Master Hua's proud work, Duan Xue Ren, couldn't leave a mark on it. It can be seen that this weapon is very strong, and its sharpness is far beyond Duan Xue's. So far, there hasn't been anything that it can't penetrate." The auctioneer enthusiastically introduced.
When the people below heard this, they were even more tempted. Moreover, the auctioneer added another sentence.
"We've professionally used it and found that if you fight with a weapon, it will greatly reduce the user's energy. Even when you're injured, it will feedback some energy to help you heal your body's injuries."
After this sentence, the entire venue exploded. This was because the weapons in the mortal world would never have such a situation. Only the weapons specially made for humans by the immortals would have such a function. Although this kind of weapon was not widely circulated, which one of them was not famous? It followed the owner to establish a great reputation.
Moreover, as time passed, it was almost impossible to see it. The last time it appeared was thousands of years ago, so long that everyone had forgotten.
Unexpectedly, not only did the Lan family get one, they even sold it. Although the people below the hall were fanatical, they knew that they wouldn't get a share. This kind of thing, even Na Dao didn't have enough strength to get it.
Sure enough, after the auctioneer started bidding, the price exceeded the jade pendant's previous price in the blink of an eye. Moreover, it was still rising crazily. It was as if the big families above were madly fighting over it. This was a treasure that could be passed down for dozens of generations.
Openly and secretly, they were filled with firearms, but in the end, it was still snatched by the Xu family. It wasn't that they gave up, but that the Xu family had secretly promised them great benefits, making them give up on this competition.
With the auctioneer's final decision, this item completely belonged to the Xu family, and they would come to collect it later.
When Gu Zheng first saw it, his body trembled. This was because he had given this weapon to Zhao Man. After some slight modifications, he had given it to him. Although he knew that Zhao Man had lost his weapon, he had never expected to see it here.
Moreover, Gu Zheng even found a seal on it. However, he purposely leaked a trace of its aura. Otherwise, Gu Zheng wouldn't have noticed it at all. This was because this weapon completely belonged to Zhao Man. He had already removed the seal on it.
More importantly, Gu Zheng found a familiar figure in this auction. If he hadn't been attracted by the angry aura of the other party, he wouldn't have known that Zhao Man had also mixed in.
Although he was dressed like a rich man, and even the shape of his face had changed. He even pretended to be like the others, admiring the weapon. If one only looked at the surface, even Gu Zheng couldn't recognize him.
On second thought, Gu Zheng realized that this was probably not a trap targeted at him. However, from the looks of it, it did not seem like it. However, why did it leak that bit of aura? Could it be that it wanted others to sense the might of the weapon?
However, Gu Zheng, who was about to take it back, stopped his movements and waited to see what Zhao Man would do.
With the final sale of the long spear, the entire auction ended. Gu Zheng directly followed the crowd and called out to Bei Chen, who was waiting for him outside. He then secretly followed behind Zhao Man.
The Xu family junior who won this long spear also had a look of excitement on his face. He took the weapon and sat in his carriage, ready to go out of the city and rush to Feng City.
Xu Wei hadn't expected that this accidental trip would allow him to encounter such an opportunity. Although he had paid a great price, it was all worth it.
His family had declined a lot. Since the old ancestor went to the Beise Mountain Range, he hadn't come back for thousands of years. If it weren't for his spirit tablet still in the main hall and not broken, the situation of his family might be even more difficult to endure.
Now the Ye family was becoming more and more aggressive. Contrary to the previous moderate faction, they had roped in several other families. Their momentum was very strong.
There was no other way. In the past thousand years, their family had produced a lot of talents. Several of the younger generation had already entered the Snow Mountain Sect. Especially the Emperor's trust in the Imperial Preceptor, they were a little uncomfortable.
He himself was only at the second stage of cultivation. Although he was envious, he couldn't pick up the weapon. He could only put the box beside him and go out of the city gate with a few guards.
This small town was located in the middle of Feng City. It was also the most prominent fortress. Even if he rushed there with all his strength, it would take at least a week.
If he were to travel day and night by horse, then three days would be enough. But with such a heavy weapon, he could only choose this method.
He wasn't worried at all that someone would dare to rob them. In this place, even if they had declined, they were still one of the top giants. As long as his old ancestor didn't die, then his family's status wouldn't be lower.
Looking at Feng City, except for the Ye family and the Royal family, no other family had such strength.
There used to be a few geniuses, but once they became immortals, they couldn't contact their family members. They could only start to take care of them for free. Then for the future, they left here or entered the compulsory cultivation.
However, three days after he left, while he was still thinking about how happy his family would be and what kind of achievements he would bring to the family, a huge pit suddenly caved in when he drove past it, and he fell into it along with his car.
Even the guards next to him were no exception. When encountering such a sudden accident, although they reacted in time, the horse's skin fell down with them.
Suddenly, a figure appeared in front of them and walked towards them.
"Who are you? You dare to intercept us? Are you not afraid of death?" The two guards stood in front of them and suddenly shouted, while the others went to rescue Xu Wei.
The figure didn't speak and rushed towards them directly.
"Courting death!" The guards also knew that the person didn't come with good intentions, but they didn't expect to be robbed here. It seemed that someone at the auction coveted this weapon and secretly ran in front of them to intercept them.
But as a fifth-stage powerhouse, he wasn't afraid of the other party at all. Not to mention that he had companions to support him. No matter how strong the other party was, he couldn't beat them.
The guard suddenly rushed forward, wanting to block the other party, but the figure didn't want to fight with him at all. With a strange movement skill, the figure passed by him.
Even though the guard was on guard against the other party, he still couldn't stop the other party. Who would have thought that the other party would be so strange? He could only shout, "Protect Young Master Xu!"
He hurriedly turned around and chased after the other party, wanting to stop the other party while he and his companions attacked.
The person standing with him understood the other party's idea the moment he saw the other party break through his companions. He didn't directly go up and instead quickly retreated with the other party, always blocking the other party's path.
The other party wanted to use this strange movement skill to snatch the weapon. In this way, they wouldn't be able to find the other party even if they wanted to.
Seeing that the other party's robber was about to reach him and he had already retreated to the edge of the pit, he suddenly roared and a terrifying aura surged from his body. He took out his weapon and slashed at the other party.
Behind him were his companions who were chasing after him. As long as he obstructed the other party, he would be able to catch the other party.
However, the other party still didn't stop and rushed towards the saber light. He took out a black ball from his chest and threw it to the ground. A black fog suddenly burst out and instantly covered the area.
The guard blocking him was shocked. Now that his vision was blurred, he was afraid that the other party would sneak attack him, so he madly swung his weapon around himself.
At the same time, he sent out a wild palm wind, wanting to blow away the black fog.
Soon, when the black fog had mostly dissipated, the figure was already holding a rectangular box with weapons in his hands.
However, a layer of faint blue light flickered on it, making it impossible for the robber to immediately open it. He could only use the most stupid method to punch it.
"Don't waste your energy. This is the Lan family's unique sealing technique. It's not something you can easily open." At this time, Xu Wei climbed up from below and patted the dust off his body. He spoke to the robber through the faint black fog.
As for the other guards, except for the two in front of him, the others had already received his orders and were transcending their tribulations outside.
Seeing that his strategy was effective, the other party intercepted him no matter which direction he went. Knowing that his movement technique was very strange, they were already serious and wouldn't let him escape easily.
The robber also seemed to know this, especially since he was holding something. It was impossible for him to escape through the seemingly large gap in the middle. He only wanted to take out the weapon in the middle to greatly increase his chances of success.
However, the Lan family's precautions were too careful. Even if they knew that the chances of being robbed were almost zero, they still took precautions. Only the thing on Xu Wei's body could be opened, or they could go to their place and ask for help.
Seeing that the circle of four people was about to close but still not open, the robber directly tied up the box, pulled out a soft sword from his waist, and rushed back.
It seemed that he was determined to take away the weapon, but it was just as they wanted. After such a big accident, if they let the other party escape again, they would lose face. The few of them couldn't take him down.
"Young Master Gu, you really don't need our help. He's just an ordinary warrior, not a cultivator." In a place far away, two figures were standing on a tree. Bei Chen said to Gu Zheng.
Ever since they came out, Gu Zheng had brought him along with an unfamiliar man. It seemed like this man was someone Gu Zheng knew. To think that he would steal a person's weapon along the way. In his opinion, this was completely crazy.
Although the other party had some ability and snatched the other party's weapon, he was also in danger.
"It doesn't matter. Even if there is an accident, I will act in time." It was not that Gu Zheng was boasting, but even if the other party stabbed Zhao Man's heart, Gu Zheng could save Zhao Man. The other party couldn't even pierce his skin.
At this time, Gu Zheng wanted to see if Zhao Man had improved in the past few years. At the same time, he wanted to see a good show, so he wasn't in a hurry. He admired Zhao Man's figure from afar.
At this moment, he was much stronger than he was at the beginning. His Exotic Beast Sword Technique was tightly brandished, and coupled with that strange movement technique, he was actually able to move around the four people with ease. Unfortunately, his strength was still only at the Fourth Order. From the looks of it, the four people were evenly matched.
However, Gu Zheng was sure that if this continued, Zhao Man wouldn't be able to hold on in a few minutes. Gu Zheng's hand lit up with white light, ready to save him at any time.
However, Gu Zheng had forgotten that Zhao Man still had some strange tricks up his sleeves. When Zhao Man realized that this was the case, he took a step back and took out a yellow jade pendant, secretly activating it in his bosom.
With a flash of yellow light, a small light shield instantly appeared around Zhao Man's body. In this bright day, it was almost impossible to see it without looking carefully.
At this time, the four people stabbed at Zhao Man from four different directions. Normally, Zhao Man wouldn't be able to dodge all of the attacks, and at least two of them would leave marks on his body.
Zhao Man didn't dodge or evade, and instead took the other party's attacks head-on.
The four weapons almost hit Zhao Man at the same time, but a layer of yellow light appeared around his body, helping him block the attacks. While the other party was surprised, two of them were injured by Zhao Man and rushed out of the encirclement.
One of them was clutching his abdomen, while the other had a large cut on his leg. Fortunately, Zhao Man didn't want to hurt anyone, otherwise, they would have died.
At this time, Xu Wei, who was smiling, was dumbfounded. Seeing that the other party's shield had dimmed a lot, he estimated that it would be completely broken after a few more attacks, but the impact on them was too great.
"How about it? I took the weapons, but I showed mercy. If you continue to pester me like this, I won't be polite anymore." Zhao Man said calmly as he saw the last two people of the other party rush up again and block their way, while the two injured people stood guard beside Xu Wei.
"Impossible, if you want to leave, I'll pretend that you didn't say anything." The other party having these things was indeed beyond his expectations, but he also had the same thing, and it was even better than his.
It would be impossible to kill him with the shield in a short time, so Xu Wei couldn't let the other party take the weapons away, unless they stepped over his dead body.
Otherwise, the Xu family would become a joke. It didn't matter if he died, but the Xu family's reputation would be damaged.
Zhao Man watched the other party slowly approach him and pondered for a moment. He was about to give up, because this was the only one he had, and he had used all the others before.
This was something Xue 'er taught him how to use.
"I think none of you should fight, how about giving it to me?" a voice came from afar.
