NCCnovel Chapter 355 Auction
Chapter 355 Auction
As the largest city in the Northern Region, Tianxu City is also home to the Northern Region headquarters of Feixian Tower.
Su Yang entered the Flying Immortal Pavilion and sold some of the spiritual herbs and remedies she no longer needed.
I also bought some refining materials and some books on refining.
I also need a handy Tier 3 magic sword and some information about the major sects in the Demon Realm.
Finally, she bought a set of Tier 3 top-quality armor, the Nether Phosphor Armor, for self-defense, and only then did she give up.
Su Yang couldn't help but sigh, "Women get addicted to shopping once they start!"
Su Yang spent a full hour shopping and bought so many things that it cost her a total of 10,000 high-grade spirit stones.
If it weren't for the 25% discount that Ji Mo had given her before, Su Yang would have had to spend even more spirit stones.
These ten thousand high-grade spirit stones are equivalent to the entire fortune of an ordinary Golden Core cultivator.
Although Su Yang felt a little sorry for him, she still generously paid for it.
Some time ago, Su Yang accidentally discovered that, in addition to the top-grade spiritual vein that was originally buried beneath her space, a mid-grade spiritual vein had actually emerged after such a long period of nurturing.
After some time, this mid-grade spiritual vein might evolve into a high-grade spiritual vein, a top-grade spiritual vein, or even... a higher-level spiritual vein!
Therefore, Su Yang is not short of spirit stones.
Nevertheless, she still adhered to the principle of saving where she could and spending where she could.
Meanwhile, the servant who was introducing the products to Su Yang was secretly delighted to see how generous Su Yang was.
The commission Su Yang received from the items he bought today was enough for him to cultivate for three months.
Then, with a smile in his eyes, he said to Su Yang:
"Sir, seeing how generous you are, would you be interested in attending tomorrow night's auction?"
Su Yang raised his eyebrows when he heard this.
"What good stuff is at this auction?"
Seeing that Su Yang had shown interest, the servant thought the matter was feasible, and his smile widened.
"As you know, sir, the Canglan Realm has been in turmoil lately. Various rare and precious materials and secret realms have sprung up like mushrooms after rain in each of the seven domains."
"Our Feixianlou Northern Headquarters has decided to hold an auction tomorrow night. I can only tell you that tomorrow night's auction will be unprecedentedly grand. There is nothing we cannot auction off, only things you cannot imagine."
"The items we're auctioning cover everything from artifacts and pills to arrays and talismans. When you arrive tomorrow night, you'll naturally see what good stuff we have..."
The servant kept Su Yang in suspense.
As expected, Su Yang did indeed become interested in the auction at Feixianlou tomorrow night.
Su Yang nodded.
The servant, having received the signal, happily handed Su Yang a lavishly presented invitation.
"Sir, this is your invitation to the auction. You can use this to enter."
After receiving the invitation, Su Yang returned to the inn.
She was somewhat looking forward to what would be at tomorrow night's auction.
With some time still available, Su Yang sat upright on the bed and began to peruse some books on weapon crafting that she had bought from Feixianlou.
Her cultivation has now reached the Golden Core stage, and she must refine her own natal magic weapon.
Since Su Yang had decided to use a branch of the Fusang Divine Tree as the main material for refining her natal magic weapon, she could not possibly entrust the task of refining her natal magic weapon to someone else.
Even a section of the Fusang Divine Tree trunk would be coveted by countless immortals in the Immortal Realm, let alone in the mere Canglan Realm.
Therefore, Su Yang must learn the knowledge of weapon crafting and personally craft his own natal magic weapon.
Speaking of the four arts of cultivation, besides alchemy, she'll also need to be involved in talisman making, formations, and weapon crafting...
Before they knew it, it was evening the following day.
Su Yang then snapped out of her focus on the basics of weapon crafting.
"Time flies so fast..."
The basic weapon-refining manuals sold by Feixianlou were easy to understand, and Su Yang was already itching to try them out.
She will start practicing forging when she has time later!
She wouldn't feel at ease unless she forged her own natal magic weapon.
With the auction about to begin, Su Yang didn't delay any longer and waved her hand to store the Qi Refining Foundation into her spatial storage.
Immediately afterwards, the silver soul worms on Su Yang's face wriggled, and in an instant, her appearance changed completely.
She then took out the black cloak that she had given away at the Tianxuan Market auction to conceal her aura, and headed towards the Flying Immortal Pavilion.
After she entered Feixian Tower and showed the invitation to a servant, she was led by him to a magnificent room.
Then, the servant stood outside the room and said to Su Yang with a smile:
"I wish you a pleasant evening and that you find some delightful treasures."
Su Yang glanced around the room. It was luxurious and magnificent, but the space was only a few dozen square meters. There was no auction going on at all.
Just as Su Yang was wondering, she noticed that a powerful spatial force was constantly being generated throughout the space.
Su Yang immediately opened her eyes wide in surprise.
The power of space gradually enveloped Su Yang's entire body.
There was actually a... in this room.
A small teleportation array?!
Furthermore, Su Yang had just observed that everyone holding an invitation was led to a room by a servant from Feixianlou.
The auction held by the Flying Immortal Pavilion's Northern Region headquarters must attract a considerable number of cultivators.
And yet, each of the many participants was given a room with a teleportation array.
How much resource consumption is required to maintain such a large number of teleportation arrays?
Su Yang was instantly stunned by Fei Xian Lou's wealth!
This place is merely the northern headquarters of Feixianlou.
If it were in the Central Region, the true home of the Ji family, the true headquarters of the Flying Immortal Pavilion, Su Yang dared not imagine how luxurious it would be.
The next moment, Su Yang arrived in front of a massive, magnificent, and luxurious building.
A servant was already waiting at the entrance of the building.
When he saw Su Yang appear, he maintained his signature smile.
"Please come in, sir."
Su Yang followed the servant into the building.
The scale here is similar to that of the previous auction in Tianxuan Market, except that it is a hundred times more advanced than the auction held by the Feixianlou branch of Tianxuan Market.
After leading Su Yang to a corner seat, the servant handed her a number plate, explained the details, and then left.
Before Su Yang took her seat, there were already many cultivators present.
The people attending the auction were a diverse bunch, but they all used various methods to conceal their aura and appearance.
To Su Yang's surprise, she detected the aura of a demon cultivator on the cultivator next to her...
Although he concealed his identity, Su Yang still sensed a trace of a demon.
For no other reason than that, after this period of time, half of Su Yang's bloodline has successfully transformed into the bloodline of the Three-Legged Golden Crow, making him equivalent to half a member of the Three-Legged Golden Crow clan.
As a member of the demon god lineage, Su Yang was still able to recognize the Three-Legged Golden Crow even though the demon race had concealed itself.
Su Yang was not surprised by this, after all, Tianxu City was the most prosperous city in the Northern Region, and since the opening of the Spirit Network, the connection between the seven regions of Canglan Realm had been further strengthened.
Cultivators travel between the Demon Realm and the East, West, South, North, and Central Regions.
Even the once-closed Demon Realm has begun to open up to the outside world to some extent.
As Su Yang was observing the demon cultivator beside her, the demon seemed to realize something and suddenly looked at Su Yang.
Their eyes met.
Su Yang nodded slightly to the other person, then quickly looked away.
The moment this demon cultivator met Su Yang's gaze, his entire body seemed to freeze.
Why did he feel an unprecedented sense of oppression emanating from this woman?!
A sense of dread, beyond the soul, welled up inside him, and before he knew it, Canglang was drenched in a cold sweat.
The wolf's unusual behavior quickly returned to normal, but his mind was no longer on the auction.
His attention was now completely focused on Su Yang next door.
The woman next door to him is actually a demon?
The wolf will not make a mistake!
The moment their eyes met, Canglang immediately noticed.
Moreover, this banshee's bloodline power far surpasses his.
Only those of the same kind with pure and high-level bloodline power can give this feeling to demons with lower-level bloodline power.
Otherwise, the wolf would not have felt this kind of fear that transcends the soul.
Thinking of this, Canglang was deeply shocked.
Because of his bloodline, which is considered top-tier in the entire demon realm.
Their Silver Moon Wolf clan, along with the Qingqiu Fox Clan, Flood Dragon, Luan Bird, and Plant Clan, is ranked as one of the five major clans in the Demon Realm.
Furthermore, because ancient beings like the Tree Elder exist within the lifeblood of the Demon Realm, the Demon Realm is implicitly led by the plant race.
Although the wolf had never met the old tree, it was certain that even the old tree could not exert such a sense of oppression on its soul.
Just what kind of being is that female demon next door to him?!
Although Canglang was very careful and cautious in observing Su Yang, Su Yang still noticed.
Su Yang couldn't help but smile, "So you've discovered it..."
However, Su Yang did not pay attention to Canglang's gaze.
After all, as a demon god, the Three-Legged Golden Crow has an absolute power to suppress other demon races in terms of bloodline.
Time passed slowly, and soon it was time for the auction to officially begin.
This auction was massive in scale; even the host who introduced the auction items was a Nascent Soul cultivator!
The Nascent Soul cultivator didn't waste time on irrelevant topics and quickly got to the point.
With a wave of his hand, a beam of light appeared on the stage.
Within the spiritual light, a shimmering powder was enveloped, and the power of stars within it instantly dissipated. All the cultivators in the auction house sensed the rich power of stars within it.
A commotion instantly erupted from the audience.
"This power is actually... the power of stars?" Some cultivators were shocked.
"That pile of powder is...?"
The Nascent Soul Monarch on the stage smiled slightly, "That's right, esteemed guests, the first item to be auctioned at our auction is Meteorite Sand!"
The Nascent Soul cultivator began his unhurried introduction, while Su Yang's eyes flickered as she gazed at the meteorite sand within the spiritual light.
Meteorite sand is sand formed in the starry sky, and it is an excellent material for refining weapons.
If meteorite sand is added during the forging process, the resulting magical artifact will possess growth attributes.
Although a cultivator's natal magic weapon, as long as it is nurtured within the cultivator's dantian, can also grow as the cultivator's cultivation level increases.
However, if meteorite sand is added, the growth rate of the natal magic weapon will increase significantly.
Su Yang stared at the meteorite sand within the spiritual light, her expression filled with excitement.
"I'm sure all the guests here are quite fond of meteorite sand, so I won't say any more."
"The starting bid for Meteorite Sand is 10,000 high-grade spirit stones, with each bid increasing by 1,000 high-grade spirit stones, and there is no upper limit."
As soon as the Nascent Soul cultivator finished speaking, someone in the crowd immediately started bidding.
"11,000 high-grade spirit stones."
"I'll offer thirteen thousand!"
"..."
The price of meteorite sand was quickly driven up to 17,000 high-grade spirit stones.
Many people have already stopped raising prices.
After all, meteorite sand is worth at most this much, no more.
While they were interested in meteorite sand, they weren't absolutely certain it was essential.
Seeing that the time was right, Su Yang raised her number plate and said softly:
"Eighteen thousand high-grade spirit stones!"
The cultivator who had just bid 17,000 high-grade spirit stones gritted his teeth and then added another 1,000 high-grade spirit stones.
"Twenty thousand high-grade spirit stones!" Su Yang called out.
The cultivator who had been vying with Su Yang cursed under his breath and stopped competing with her.
Twenty thousand high-grade spirit stones are equivalent to half the wealth of a Nascent Soul True Monarch, which is far beyond the true value of Meteorite Sand.
After the host counted down three seconds, Su Yang finally caught the meteorite sand.
"Congratulations, sir, on winning the Meteorite Sand at the auction for 20,000 high-grade spirit stones!"
The host, who was at the Nascent Soul stage, couldn't suppress the smirk on his face.
He was surprised that the first item had already fetched such a high price; he couldn't wait to see the prices of the other items up for auction!
The subsequent auctions proceeded even more smoothly.
The final transaction price for each item was far higher than Feixianlou's estimated price.
After successfully auctioning off another refining material, Su Yang stopped participating in auctions.
It's not that she doesn't want to participate, it's just that her wallet won't allow it!
The prices of the items auctioned off were getting higher and higher. Even though she had a top-grade spiritual vein and a mid-grade spiritual vein, it couldn't withstand her spending so much!
Even later auction items were almost never auctioned off using spirit stones.
Some rare medicinal herbs that Su Yang had her eye on were auctioned off to others, but Su Yang could only watch helplessly as they were taken away by others.
Su Yang sighed softly, having no choice but to give up.
Soon it was time for the bidding to begin for the last item.
To Su Yang's surprise, the last item up for auction was actually a spark of fire.
Su Yang squinted at the spark of fire, thinking to herself that it wasn't that simple.
The flame was blue inside and shrouded in a purple aura. Within it, an even more advanced energy faintly emanated.
Su Yang was certain that this energy surpassed spiritual, demonic, and magical power.
The energy within this spark seems to have been suppressed by some kind of seal, preventing it from erupting.
Otherwise, if it were to erupt, something terrifying would definitely happen!
Su Yang actually thought this energy was comparable to chaotic spiritual power?!
