The Devil's Tribulation

Chapter 201: Tough Gold Crystal

At the auction venue in Fuguang Town, as Murong Qing's voice fell, the first lot began to be auctioned. Lu Qingshan shouted: "100 top-grade crystal beads!" Lu Qingshan is really a wonderful person who supports his own business. Sure enough, Lu Qingshan was recognized as soon as he spoke. A young man's voice came from the VIP room No. on the third floor: "Master Lu bid like this himself, aren't you afraid that others will gossip about you?" Lu Qingshan also recognized the other party and said with a smile: "Master Ximen, you are joking. Everyone in the world knows that I love drinking. How can I miss good wine! I am determined to get this wine!"

Another voice came out: "Master Ximen, aren't you meddling too much? It's just a few jars of wine, but you have to jump out and show your face. Are you afraid that others don't know that you, Master Ximen Gui, have come to visit?" Ximen Gui sneered: "Nian Qingfei, what does it have to do with you? Why are you everywhere? This wine is for me, 150 crystal beads!" Nian Qingfei said: "When the ancestor comes out of retreat in a while, it's a good opportunity to give him this wine to taste, 200 crystal beads!"

Just as Lu Qingshan was about to bid, Pan Chengfeng hurriedly stopped him and said, "Brother, you like peach blossom wine, are you afraid that you won't have it? I have a lot to do, and now the main thing is to promote it, let them buy it back, and let more people know about Zhong's peach blossom wine, this is the most important thing." After finally persuading Lu Qingshan, Ximen Gui also offered 250 crystal beads. On average, a jar of 25 crystal beads, the cost of wine is only 10 low-grade crystal beads, and it is sold for 25 high-grade crystal beads! How many times the profit is you can calculate it yourself!

The price of the following ninety jars was set, and the price of the last ten jars even soared to 350 crystal beads. The first step of Zhong's wine making a name for itself was completed, and the price was basically set, with a very good effect. Chu Xuanji was also delighted. He also got a share of the profits. He glanced at Pan Chengfeng who was also happy, and thought to himself, "This brother is really good. He is willing to share such a good business. But this alone is probably not enough. It seems that I have to go find the Grand Master."

The atmosphere at the auction was very good. As each item was sold, Murong Qing couldn't stop smiling. Until a spiritual sword was successfully sold, Murong Xue said: "The next item is a spiritual treasure! I believe everyone knows the value of spiritual treasures!" A girl came up with a tray. Murong Qing directly pulled open the red cloth, and a small spiritual treasure on the tray suddenly glowed. Everyone shouted: "Mid-grade spiritual treasure! It's a mid-grade spiritual treasure! I didn't expect to see a mid-grade spiritual treasure here!" Murong Qing smiled and said: "Fellow Daoist, you have good eyes, it's right, it's a newly-made spiritual treasure! And the quality has reached the mid-grade level! It is the masterpiece of our master refiner, Master Guan! Mother-child chain thorns!"

Chu Xuanji asked with some surprise: "Master Guan has broken through to the late stage of the Spiritualization?" Lu Qingshan smiled and said: "He just broke through last year, and he couldn't wait to refine this spiritual treasure after the breakthrough." Chu Xuanji said with some envy: "Master Zhuge has just broken through to the Spiritualization, and now he can barely refine low-level spiritual treasures." Lu Qingshan smiled and said: "Master Zhuge is only seven or eight hundred years old, and Master Guan is 3000 years old. If it weren't for the limitation of cultivation, Master Zhuge's weapon refining skills would be much better than Master Guan. Master Zhuge in the middle stage of the Spiritualization should be able to refine a mid-grade spiritual weapon." Pan Chengfeng asked: "Is there a limitation of cultivation level in weapon refining?"

Aunt Zhong looked at Pan Chengfeng unkindly, Qian'er covered her mouth and laughed. Chu Xuanji knew that Pan Chengfeng lacked a lot of knowledge about cultivating immortals, and explained with a smile: "Yes, under normal circumstances, if you want to refine spiritual treasures, you must at least be in the early stage of the Spiritualization, otherwise the mana will not be enough to support the consumption of refining. And when it comes to refining spiritual tools, it is more about skills. Master Zhuge was able to refine high-quality spiritual tools when he was building his foundation, and even top-quality spiritual tools. Until the peak of the Nascent Soul, he can only refine top-quality spiritual tools. One is the limitation of cultivation, and the other is the temperature of the flame. If the cultivation is too low, it cannot withstand the scorching of the flame. Of course, there are also technical limitations. If the skills are good, it will take relatively short time. For example, Master Guan can only refine spiritual treasures when he reaches the middle stage of the Spiritualization. As long as Master Zhuge breaks through to the early stage of the Spiritualization, he can refine spiritual treasures."

Pan Chengfeng nodded, and learned something new. Aunt Zhong said with an unhappy face: "There are also several weapon refiners in the family. If Chengfeng doesn't understand, go back and ask them. Now just watch the auction quietly." Pan Chengfeng looked depressed, Qian'er sent a voice message: "There are indeed too many things you don't understand. Take your time. If you don't understand, send a voice message to me. I tell you, don't disturb Aunt Zhong and Brother Chu talking." In fact, Aunt Zhong was going to ask Chu Xuanji about this question just now, but Pan Chengfeng got there first. How could Aunt Zhong be nice to him?

Soon, this middle-grade spiritual treasure was auctioned off for 1500 million crystal beads. It was the Ximen family who auctioned it. The four major families were indeed wealthy. However, Ximen Gui was not very happy, because the price was raised a bit too high by the Nian family. The spiritual treasure, which was originally worth about 1200 million, cost an extra 300 million crystal beads! The auction of the spiritual tools and spiritual treasures was over, and now it was time to start the next stage.

Murong Qing smiled and said, "Next is the auction of natural treasures, including refining materials, spiritual medicines, and materials for setting up formations and making talismans." Pan Chengfeng now has a big furnace. He wants to learn refining, but he is worried that it will delay his own practice. After all, he is practicing both magic and body. If he squeezes out time to learn other things, he is afraid that he will not have enough time. Time slowly passed, and the auction items were sold one by one. Lu Qingshan nodded and said, "Every auction hosted by Murong Qing has a good effect. Many things are sold at a higher price. How is it compared to that Xiu Niang in your Qingxu Town?"

Chu Xuanji said: "Xiuniang is also very good, but her innate conditions are not as good as Murong Qing's. However, she is also a rare talent. After this training, the Grand Pavilion Master arranged a new place for me. I plan to take a few people away with me."

Just as he was talking, Murong Qing downstairs shouted, "The next one is a rare material. Those Daoists who are refining their own life magic weapons will definitely need it! Tough gold crystal! And it weighs three pounds!" Chu Xuanji stood up and said hurriedly, "Lu Qingshan! You bastard! Did you drink too much and burn your brain? Did you forget everything I said?!"

Lu Qingshan looked confused, then slowly opened his mouth and said apologetically: "Second brother, I'm sorry, I'm really sorry, I was really drunk that day and forgot about it." Pan Chengfeng asked puzzledly: "What's wrong? Two brothers?" Chu Xuanji said angrily: "300 years ago, I started to refine my life magic weapon, but I have always been missing a material. The magic weapon is still a semi-finished product! As long as the auction owner I know, I will ask him to help me find that material! Unfortunately, there has been no news in the past 300 years. Although the material is not a very high-quality refining material, it is extremely rare. I have been looking for it for hundreds of years! If I hadn't come today, I would have missed it!"

Lu Qingshan apologized, "Don't worry, second brother. It's in time. It proves that this tough gold crystal is destined for you. Hurry up and bid. It's already 200 million crystal beads." Chu Xuanji sneered, "If this is what I like, even if the sect comes, they can't beat me! 500 million crystal beads!"

The venue was silent, and everyone looked towards VIP Room No. 1, knowing that Lu Qingshan was there. They all thought that Lu Qingshan was crazy, blatantly breaking the rules of Wanbao Pavilion and raising the price himself! The cultivator in the middle stage of Lianxu of Sanquan Sect said unhappily: "What does Pavilion Master Lu mean? Are you still holding a grudge for what happened just now?" Lu Qingshan flew out and explained: "Don't get me wrong, even if I had the guts to do so, I wouldn't dare to break the rules of Wanbao Pavilion like this. The one who made the bid is my friend, and he just happens to need this piece of tough gold crystal."

Chu Xuanji also floated out and said, "I am Chu Xuanji, and I have taken a fancy to this tough gold crystal. Please give me some face." The cultivator in the middle stage of the Void Refining Realm sneered, "Haha, it turns out to be Master Chu. It seems that I haven't been out for a long time. I don't know how the juniors nowadays are more arrogant than each other. They call me this master all the time in front of me."

Chu Xuan Ji immediately retorted, "Buying things depends on financial strength, not qualifications. If this senior needs it, you can offer as much as you want, but I have to say that this piece of tough gold crystal is mine!" "You!" The person next to him pulled him and said in a voice transmission, "Brother Ma, that guy surnamed Man is still here, let's not cause trouble, and don't forget that we still have a mission." Brother Ma snorted.

After the price of five million was announced, no one dared to bid again, and Chu Xuanji happily accepted the item. She glanced at Lu Qingshan, snorted and said, "Lend me the secret room for a while, I want to refine this material." Lu Qingshan said, "The auction hasn't ended yet, why are you so anxious, second brother?" Chu Xuanji said, "I have waited for 300 years, and now I don't want to wait a moment!" Aunt Zhong immediately said, "I will go to protect Pavilion Master Chu and prevent anyone from disturbing you." Chu Xuanji nodded and said, "Thank you, Fairy Zhong."

Aunt Zhong followed Chu Xuanji out, and Pan Chengfeng breathed a sigh of relief. He didn't recognize many things at the auction just now. Aunt Zhong was there, and he didn't dare to ask, fearing that he would be punished to copy, which made him feel really uncomfortable. Now that Aunt Zhong is gone, Pan Chengfeng suddenly feels that the air of freedom has returned.

Qian'er was also relieved. If Aunt Zhong was around, she would be quite restrained. Pan Chengfeng immediately pulled Qian'er into his arms and said with a smile, "You are finally free. Aunt Zhong was too strict." Lu Qingshan smiled and said, "I can see that. She is your elder, so you naturally feel restrained when she is around." Pan Chengfeng said, "That's right. When will the auction of Brother Lu's skills start? It seems to be almost over."

Lu Qingshan looked at the time and said, "Next we have the elixirs, and finally the auction of the secret techniques. It will take another two hours, don't worry." Pan Chengfeng hugged Qian'er and said, "I'm not in a hurry. Aunt Zhong is not here, so it doesn't matter how long it takes." Qian'er grabbed Pan Chengfeng's naughty hand and said angrily, "Aunt Zhong said that you will not only have to copy when you go back, but also ask the weapon refiner for advice. How can you still smile?" Pan Chengfeng's face fell, and he sighed, "What sin have I committed?!"
