"Among the branches of the Four Great Chambers of Commerce, the earliest to be auctioned is the Dragon Gate Chamber of Commerce, but there are still three months to go, so there's no need to rush."
"Now that everyone has received their entry cards, all you need to do is remember to head to Nangong City in advance."
Luo Ping said to the crowd after responding to their gratitude.
The Clan Leaders and Immortal Marshals left in high spirits after hearing this, as they would head to Nangong City as soon as the time came.
Luo Ping and the rest were not in a rush, as they took advantage of the time to check on the development of the Immortal Cities, and were quite satisfied with what they had found.
Luo Ping also gave the City Lords of the Immortal Cities the entry cards of the Four Great Chambers of Commerce. While the City Lords were excited, the resentment in their hearts was completely erased, and they sincerely pledged their allegiance to Qin Nan.
… …
Three months later, in Nangong City …
The first to be auctioned was the branch of the Dragon Gate Chamber of Commerce. On the day of the auction, everyone who had purchased their entry cards gathered outside the branch of the Dragon Gate Chamber of Commerce, waiting to enter.
"Creak!"
The entrance of the branch of the Dragon Gate Chamber of Commerce was opened. Under the supervision of the members of the chamber of commerce, all the cultivators took out their entry cards and entered the branch after being inspected.
In order to ensure the safety of the auction, the Four Great Chambers of Commerce had sent a huge number of experts to guard the branches. As for the branch in Nangong City, it went without saying that there were Peerless Immortals guarding the branch.
Facing the Peerless Immortal experts, the cultivators participating in the auction did not dare to be reckless, as they all obediently accepted the inspection.
The branch of the Dragon Gate Chamber of Commerce occupied a spacious area. Although the auction this time had gathered a huge number of cultivators, they still only occupied a small portion of the space.
There were no VIP rooms in the auction hall. Regardless of the cultivators' cultivation or status, they were all gathered in an empty space. This was the specialty of the Four Great Chambers of Commerce.
Luo Ping led the members of Min City. There were more than a hundred people, and it could be said that this was a very large and eye-catching group.
After all, the entrance card was very expensive. Not every power could have so many immortal soul stones. Even many of the second-ranked clans and immortal sects couldn't be as "generous" as Luo Ping's group.
While many forces were observing Luo Ping's group, Luo Ping was also observing the other forces. After all, he needed these people to compete for this auction. It was always good to know more about them.
"Duanmu Clan!"
"More than 60 people came at once. Looks like their family background is not simple. Eh, why do the two people beside Duan Muzhao look so familiar?"
Luo Ping looked at the sixty people of the Duanmu Clan and was slightly surprised. When he saw the two people standing beside Duanmu Zhao, he felt that their gazes were very familiar.
"It's them!"
Luo Ping immediately thought of the two people's identities, and a shocked expression appeared on his face.
Suppressing the shock in his heart, Luo Ping began to size up the other forces. Apart from them, the largest group was naturally the Nangong Clan and the Linglong Divine Sect. Both had more than 80 people.
After everyone had gathered, a middle-aged man walked to the front of the high platform with a signature smile on his face.
"Welcome everyone to this branch's auction. I am the branch president of this branch, Ai Zheng."
"Although our Dragon Gate Chamber of Commerce was the last to be established among the Four Great Chambers of Commerce, our speed of development is the fastest. I believe that everyone will not come in vain. You will all be able to buy treasures that you will be satisfied with."
The middle-aged man briefly introduced himself and gave his best wishes to everyone.
He was the branch president of the Dragon Gate Chamber of Commerce branch in Nangong City, Ai Zheng. His cultivation had long reached the ninth level of Golden Immortal. As for the Peerless Immortal expert who was sent here, he was naturally hiding in the dark.
After speaking, branch president Ai Zheng waved his hand and many female cultivators walked out from behind him. Each of them held a jade plate covered by a red cloth. The items on the plate were all items to be auctioned.
"The auction will now begin."
Following his command, a female cultivator immediately stood on the high platform and pulled the red cloth off the jade plate, revealing the treasures on it.
"This is … a Purple Leaf Dragon Sunflower!"
"There are ten of them all at once?"
"I must get these ten Purple Leaf Dragon Sunflowers."
Many people recognized the items on the jade plate and their voices were filled with excitement and desire.
On the jade plate were ten flowers with leaves. The leaves were purple and emitted a faint purple glow. The white flower had five petals and looked like a trumpet.
"This Purple Leaf Dragon Sunflower has miraculous healing and detoxification effects. Although it is not an extremely precious Immortal item, it is difficult to grow and the production is low. Therefore, its price is still relatively high."
After seeing the crowd's reaction, branch president Ai Zheng introduced the item and announced the price of the Purple Leaf Dragon Sunflower.
"These ten Purple Leaf Dragon Sunflowers will be auctioned together. The starting price will be one thousand low-tier yellow grade Celestial Soul Stones. The auction will now begin."
After Branch Leader Ai Zheng made the announcement, the entire auction house immediately started a fierce bidding war.
"One thousand three hundred low-tier yellow grade Celestial Soul Stones."
"One thousand five hundred low-tier yellow grade Celestial Soul Stones."
"Two thousand …"
…
In just a short period of time, the price of the ten Purple Leaf Dragon Sunflowers had increased by several folds and it was still increasing. After all, it was a Immortal item that could heal and detoxify. It could be said that it was a life-saving measure.
Luo Ping watched the fierce competition in the auction house. He was unmoved. Although the Purple Leaf Dragon Sunflower was miraculous, it was not very attractive to him. In fact, it was of little value to him.
He had the Bright Nether Heart Sutra that could heal his injuries. He also had the Black White Pearls that could devour and purify evil qi and all kinds of strange poisons. Naturally, he did not need the Purple Leaf Dragon Sunflower.
Although he didn't need it, it didn't mean Liao Chengyun and the others didn't need it. All of them had Earthly Grade Celestial Soul Stones, so they were quite wealthy. Therefore, Liao Chengyun had joined the bidding as soon as the auction started and didn't give up.
"Seven thousand five hundred low-tier yellow grade Celestial Soul Stones."
After Liao Chengyun announced the price, there was still a determined expression on his face. After all, there were only three people left in the bidding.
"Ten thousand low-tier yellow grade Celestial Soul Stones."
Another voice sounded and directly called out a terrifying price. Not only did it cause Liao Chengyun's expression to become gloomy, even many people in the auction house had a shocked expression.
"Duanmu Chen, are you trying to go against me? I don't believe …"
Liao Chengyun was about to continue bidding but was stopped by Luo Ping. Although he was confused and unwilling, he was not stubborn and gave up bidding.
After Branch President Ai Zheng asked three times, no one continued to bid and the ten Purple Leaf Dragon Sunflowers were successfully bought by Duanmu Chen.
Duanmu Chen looked at Liao Chengyun with a provocative and disdainful smile. He then took out the Celestial Soul Stones and handed them to the female cultivator who was walking over.
"Motherf * cker, I'll kill this brat sooner or later."
Liao Chengyun said angrily.
"Brother Luo, why didn't you let me continue bidding? If I continued bidding, that brat Duanmu Chen might not be able to defeat me. "
Liao Chengyun asked in confusion.
"It's just ten Purple Leaf Dragon Sunflowers. It's not worth wasting so many Celestial Soul Stones. I'll refine some detoxifying elixirs later. I guarantee that the detoxifying effect is many times stronger than the Purple Leaf Dragon Sunflowers."
Luo Ping said casually through voice transmission.
"Yes, Brother Luo's current level of four arts is very high. It's not difficult for you to refine such an elixir. Then I won't be polite and will refine more."
Liao Chengyun beamed with joy and said.
While they were talking, the second auction item appeared in front of everyone's eyes, causing an even greater commotion than before.
On top of the jade plate was a pitch-black stone. It was only the size of a palm and there was nothing special about it. However, this stone was flickering with a dazzling lightning glow.
"Thunder Ink!"
"This is a treasure that contains rich lightning power. It's very helpful for cultivators who practice lightning-attributed cultivation techniques. It seems that I'm not fated to get it."
"Haha, I've been looking for this Thunder Ink for thousands of years. I can't believe I finally found it. This time, I must get it."
Everyone was talking about it. Some were disappointed, while others were overjoyed. After all, this Thunder Ink was only useful for cultivators who practiced lightning-attributed cultivation techniques.
Although the Thunder Ink was more valuable than the Purple Leaf Dragon Sunflowers, there were many restrictions on its use. Therefore, although it caused a great commotion, the number of bidders decreased by a lot.
"This Thunder Ink has been condensed for 100,000 years. Once the lightning power is released, it's comparable to the full power attack of a Level Nine Mystic Immortal. It's very precious."
"The starting price of this Thunder Ink is 3,000 low yellow grade Celestial Soul Stones. The auction starts now."
After a brief introduction, Branch Chairman Ai Zheng announced the starting price of the Thunder Ink and the auction started.
"5,000 low yellow grade Celestial Soul Stones!"
"8,000 low yellow grade Celestial Soul Stones!"
…
Some cultivators who practiced lightning-attributed cultivation techniques did not hesitate to start a fierce bidding war. Soon, the price of the Thunder Ink was raised.
Within Min Cheng's group, there were quite a number of people who practiced lightning-attributed Qi Methods. Naturally, they all desired this piece of Thunder Ink. Furthermore, the current price was still within their acceptable range. Hence, quite a number of people joined in the bidding.
However, as the price continued to rise, the patriarchs and Celestial Marshals had no choice but to stop bidding.
Some of them did not have enough Celestial Soul Stones, while others wanted to keep their Celestial Soul Stones for the treasures they needed more later.
When Luo Ping saw the disappointment on everyone's face, he smiled faintly and sent a voice transmission to them. When they heard the voice transmission, smiles appeared on their faces again.
"Thank you, Elder Luo!"
These people expressed their gratitude one after another. They had recovered from their disappointment and were no longer looking at the Thunder Ink with longing in their eyes.
When Luo Ping saw this, he nodded his head in satisfaction. He had also promised these patriarchs and Celestial Marshals that he would help them refine lightning-attributed Celestial Pills. That was why they were no longer disappointed.
Very soon, Lei Mo was sold for eighty thousand low-grade yellow grade Celestial Soul Stones. In the next moment, one treasure after another was brought up on the stage, and the bidding started under the continuous exclamations of the crowd.
