In the auction in the City of Ten Thousand Buddhas, many Discipline Monks from the Great Lightning Temple had suddenly entered to maintain order. Such a scene had never appeared in previous auctions. Immediately, the many cultivators sitting in the hall began to become restless. They were only in the Deity Transformation stage and Yuanying stage, so they were naturally powerless in the face of the Discipline Monks from the Great Lightning Temple.
The atmosphere suddenly became a little strange. Many people who were afraid of trouble stood up and prepared to leave. Most of them were rogue cultivators, but there were also some cultivators from other realms.
At this time, a loud voice came from the middle of the box on the top floor. A "Amitabha Buddha", using the Lion's Roar Technique, resounded in everyone's ears. Then, the voice said, "I am Pu Dian from the Great Lightning Temple. I have come here today. I hope everyone will give me some face. Just act according to the rules and don't have any improper thoughts."
As soon as this statement came out, the people sitting below felt a little relieved. After all, the City Lord of Ten Thousand Buddhas City, Master Pu Dian's reputation was there. He was also a trustworthy person. With him personally overseeing the auction and the support of the Discipline Monks from the Great Thunder Zen Temple, there was no way for anything to go wrong.
Pu Dian's voice naturally alarmed Yan Wenxiong, who was sitting cross-legged on one side of the box. After putting away the restrictive halo around him, he hurriedly went forward to take a look. After a short while, a look of fear appeared on his face and he said, "Master, isn't this auction a little too big? Even the 'eighteen Discipline Monks' from the Discipline Hall of the Great Lightning Temple are here, and the City Lord is personally presiding over it. Could it be that something big is going to happen?"
Yi Tian smiled faintly and said, "You heard what Master Pu Dian said just now. As long as we don't cause trouble, there is no need to be afraid."
Yan Wenxiong sighed and said, "I didn't expect that I would be able to auction with a Body Integration stage cultivator in my life. It would be a great blessing if I could get close to him."
"Look at you," Yi Tian said with disdain. "If you were to sit on the same stage as a Body Integration cultivator, I'm afraid you wouldn't have the courage to do so."
Yan Wenxiong said with awe, "Master, you don't know, I haven't seen a Body Integration cultivator since I was born. When I was in the Infernal Realm, I could only see a few Severed Soul Stage big shots at most. At that time, I was already very satisfied."
"Cut the crap. I'm here to clean up your mess," Yi Tian scolded. "I've already asked someone to help. I believe that if nothing goes wrong, we should be able to get the item back."
"Why is Master so interested in that jade pendant? Is there any special meaning to it?" Yan Wenxiong asked.
"You'd better take that thing back," Yi Tian replied with a solemn expression. He didn't tell him the reason and just glared at him. Then, he closed his eyes and sat up.
Seeing this, Yan Wenxiong also felt bored. He could only find a seat across from them and sit down. Since Master said that he had arranged someone to help, he naturally didn't have to worry too much.
At this time, the low-level cultivators in the hall outside quieted down a little. Suddenly, many cultivators in the surrounding private rooms hurriedly replied. These cultivators on the lower floors were all in the Severed Soul Stage and Soul Formation Stage.
After a while, a loud voice came from the private room on the right side of the top floor, "So it's Mr. Pu Dian who came in person. This old man, Yan Qiu, greets you."
The person who spoke was the patriarch of the Netherworld Clan. Many cultivators in the hall must have heard of his name. However, since he dared to be the first to reply, he naturally wouldn't be afraid of Pu Dian. He just had to give face.
Then another deep voice came from the private room opposite, "Old Yan, I didn't expect to see you again. Your temper hasn't changed after so many years."
Yan Qiu shouted coldly, "Who is this, do we know each other?"
"You have a bad memory. This old man is the special envoy of the demon race, Xiong Erbao. Back then, you stirred up trouble in the demon realm. I didn't expect to meet you again in the Buddha Spirit Realm."
He didn't expect to meet an old friend in the Demon Realm, but with Xiong Erbao's personality, he naturally wouldn't stay in the Iron Eating Beast Clan. Since he was able to cross over, he should have found a suitable job in the Demon Realm to take a stroll.
Hearing this voice, Yi Tian, who was resting with his eyes closed, felt his eyelids twitch slightly before returning to normal. Yan Wenxiong didn't notice the slight change, but he asked, "Master, do you know the names of those two Unity Stage cultivators? They are very powerful people. Not to mention Yan Qiu, the patriarch of the Netherworld Clan, Xiong Erbao, is a big shot in the demon realm in the past few hundred years. As the special envoy of the demon race, he has visited other realms many times. "
"I've heard of them, but as long as you don't provoke them, it should be fine." Yi Tian replied calmly, "You should be very familiar with Yan Qiu, right? Did he play a part in your leaving the Netherworld Clan back then?"
"Don't mention it. As the patriarch, Yan Qiu doesn't care about the clan's affairs." Yan Wenxiong said, "In fact, it's because of the internal strife in the Netherworld Clan. All the descendants of the royal family with impure bloodlines have to leave the sect before entering the Yuanying period." After saying that, Yan Wenxiong's eyes darkened. He pouted and turned his head away in annoyance to continue observing the situation in the hall.
Yi Tian smiled slightly, but thought in his heart, "I didn't expect the Netherworld Clan to have such a rule in order to maintain the purity of their bloodline." Then, he snorted a few times and stopped talking.
Five lights were lit outside the seven private rooms on the top floor of the auction, indicating that five of them were in use. In addition to the three people just now, there were two rooms that did not respond. The low-level cultivators sitting in the hall below also turned their eyes to these two rooms, wanting to see if anyone would respond.
After a long while, a voice came from the room next to the Demon Realm's Special Envoy, "I'm Kun Lingzi, a casual cultivator. Greetings, fellow cultivators."
'Kun Lingzi' looked unfamiliar, but Yi Tian did not know where he came from. Yi Tian secretly thought, but he heard Monk Pu Dian in the middle room said, "It turns out to be fellow cultivator 'Kun Lingzi'. I heard that you're a famous treasure hunter. Of course, this auction will not lack your work. It's my honor to have you participate in this grand event."
When Yi Tian heard this, he realized that the final item of this auction might have been found by this person. Moreover, Pu Dian also knew a lot about people, which was why he said such a thing.
However, no one in the room next to him spoke for a long time. Yi Tian naturally didn't want to say more, so he just kept quiet and didn't say anything.
However, Yan Qiu of the Yellow Spring Clan said for no reason, "Fellow cultivator Wan is so arrogant. Why don't you come out and greet the city lord?"
As soon as this remark came out, it seemed that he wanted to provoke a conflict. Many cultivators below moved their eyes to the Barbarian Horn Clan's private room on the top floor, but after waiting for three breaths, no one responded.
This seemed to be a bit awkward. Unexpectedly, a voice sounded in a private room below the top floor, "Old man Wan Gang greets Master Pu Dian. Please forgive me for my lack of etiquette."
After his voice fell, everyone's gazes instantly shifted to the box he was in. Pu Dian opened his mouth once again and said, "Since Fellow Wan has come, it's good. I'm indebted to all the Fellow Daoists for attending this grand event. This poor monk is endlessly grateful."
At this time, Pu Dian was sitting cross-legged in the middle private room. His face was full of doubts. He stared at the private room downstairs for a long time, then he turned his gaze to the Barbarian Horn Clan's VIP room on the top floor. He muttered softly, "Go and find out who is in the Barbarian Horn Clan's VIP room. The person who can make Wan Gang give up his seat is definitely not an ordinary person." The disciple beside him hurriedly left the room when he heard the words.
After a short while, the auction below officially began. In addition to the items on the catalog, this auction also took out a lot of middle and low grade spiritual weapons as a bonus. After all, there were a lot of people who came to participate in the auction. They naturally had no chance to get those high-grade items, so it was not a bad choice to take something to avoid them.
The first thing on the stage was a few good quality earth grade flying sword spiritual weapons, then some medicinal pills and precious materials. These things were naturally insignificant in the eyes of high-level cultivators, but the competition for them was extremely fierce among cultivators below the Spirit Severing Stage.
Yi Tian was not interested in this, but Yan Wenxiong watched with relish. Usually, he just mingled in the crowd below, how could he be as relaxed as he was now.
After half an hour, after the first few auction items were traded, the organizer's monk walked to the central auction stage with a foot-sized tray covered with a red cloth.
When the host lifted the red cloth on the tray, the thing inside was revealed. It was just a simple jade hairpin. It looked a little old, and it was not the style of the spiritual world. The spiritual power on it was not strong. It was like an earth grade spiritual weapon. At most, it was suitable for Spirit Severing Stage cultivators to use.
The host introduced, "Earth grade spiritual weapon phoenix head jade hairpin. The other half is missing, so the ride is 500,000 upper grade spirit stones. Each increment is 1,000. Those who need it, please bid."
As soon as the voice sounded, there were only a few people bidding. Even the increment was the smallest unit.
Suddenly, a voice came from the top floor, "600,000."
The voice of the person who spoke was a little trembling as if he lacked confidence. The people below looked up, especially those cultivators who were preparing to bid. They even showed some doubts on their faces. They didn't hear anyone in this room before, so it was indeed a little surprising that someone suddenly spoke.
In the VIP room, Yan Wenxiong directly called out for no reason, which surprised Yi Tian a little. He immediately opened his eyes and looked at him before saying, "Do you have 600,000 upper grade spirit stones on you?"
Yan Wenxiong shook his head awkwardly and said, "Disciple doesn't, but the item below is something left by my mother. Seeing it reminds me of her, so I called out the price in a hurry."
"Speaking of which, 600,000 upper grade spirit stones is almost more than the total wealth of a Yuanying cultivator like you." Yi Tian ridiculed, "Are you going to borrow it from me?"
Yan Wenxiong's eyes lit up, then he hurriedly walked forward and said, "Master, this time disciple has done the apprenticeship ceremony, but master doesn't want to do it. Why don't you give me the item below?"
Yi Tian was taken aback when he heard this. It was his negligence. After accepting a disciple as a master, he had to express his gratitude. Originally, he wanted to give him a few spiritual weapons to defend himself, but now it seemed that it was not necessary.
Yi Tian rolled his eyes at him, but said, "Since you want this phoenix jade hairpin, you don't have a share of the other things."
Yan Wenxiong nodded and replied without thinking, "A promise is a promise. Master, you won't fool me right?"
Obviously, Yan Wenxiong was also considering him. Seeing this, Yi Tian smiled faintly. Then, he took out a communication jade slip, wrote some content, and sent it out.
Yan Wenxiong asked in surprise, "Master, are you not going to do it yourself?"
"It's just a phoenix jade hairpin. You don't need to bother me. Just find someone to do it for you." Yi Tian said disdainfully.
After a short while, the bidding below continued. Although the VIP room above suddenly interrupted at an inappropriate time, no one else made a bid after that. Instead, the few Spirit Severing Stage cultivators sitting in the hall directly raised the price from 11 million to 11 million. Soon, the price rose to more than nine hundred thousand.
This made Yan Wenxiong, who was sitting in the VIP room, pale. He glanced around and saw his master sitting on the side as if he didn't care about this matter at all.
After a while, the auction price of this phoenix jade hairpin had exceeded one million. It was already in the category of a heaven-grade spiritual weapon. However, the two people bidding didn't seem to have any intention of relenting, which made the people present suddenly feel respect.
The two people sitting in the VIP room had different expressions. Yan Wenxiong was slightly worried, but Yi Tian was relaxed. Suddenly, a voice came from outside the door, "Zhineng of the Great Thunder Light Temple greets you. Please open the door."
Yi Tian used his Divine Sense and found that it was a Spirit Severing Stage monk standing outside the VIP room. He shook his head helplessly and said to Yan Wenxiong, "There are people from the Great Thunder Light Temple's Discipline Hall here. Go and receive them."
Yan Wenxiong's expression changed slightly when he heard this. After using his Divine Sense to check, his expression changed drastically, "That person is the deputy guard of the Million Buddha City. Master, are you forcing me to do something?"
"Why? Do you have a grudge with him?" Yi Tian smiled.
"It's not just a grudge. He's a soldier and I'm a thief. We have a lot of dealings. This time, Master asked me to receive someone. I'm afraid you found the wrong person." Yan Wenxiong said with a sullen expression.
"The past is the past. Now that you have become my disciple, you can be considered a new person. Why are you afraid of him?" Yi Tian said, "Go and open the door."
Yan Wenxiong also felt helpless. However, under the urging of his master, he could only bite the bullet and go to open the door.
After the door opened, Monk Zhi Xing said, "Why is it you?" Then, after using his Divine Sense to scan the room, he said without any change in expression, "Sorry to disturb you."
Yan Wenxiong didn't know what was going on. He immediately closed the door, reopened the restriction boundary, and walked back.
At this time, the bidding had already ended. The winner was a Spirit Severing Stage cultivator with thick eyebrows and big eyes. He walked up the stage happily and paid the spirit stones to the auctioneer. Then, he took the item and left through the side door.
