"Ling Tian, that's enough. Qian 'er was just playing with you.”Han Xue called out to Ling Tian.
At the same time, the guards who were sent flying by Ling Tian also charged towards Ling Tian. "Alright, you can leave. I'm fine.”Suddenly, Li Qian 'er waved her hand at the guard, indicating for him to leave. After saying that, he turned to look at Ling Tian,"So cool!" Now, I believe that you are the Ling Tian that Han Xue spoke of. You actually managed to send my guard flying with a single punch.”
Hearing this, Ling Tian had a better understanding of Li Qian 'er's personality. He retracted his sword qi and did not look at Li Qian' er as she went to her room to rest.
"Hanxue, your man is not bad!" Li Qian 'er teased Han Xue after Ling Tian left.
"I already said that we're not in that kind of relationship. We're just ordinary friends.”Han Xue said helplessly.
"Just ordinary friends? Then don't blame me for stealing your man.”Li Qian 'er laughed. Han Xue didn't reply and went back to her room. Seeing this, Li Qian 'er stomped her feet and led her guards out of the relay station.
In the blink of an eye, another seven days had passed. During these seven days, Ling Tian did not leave his room at all. Other than cultivating, he was also preparing for the auction. On this day, Han Xue and Li Qian 'er came to find Ling Tian at the same time.
"Ling Tian, come with us to the auction.”Li Qian 'er invited Ling Tian.
"No, I don't have anything to buy.”Ling Tian shook his head in rejection. "You can go and take a look if you don't want to buy it." Han Xue said.
"No need. I still need to cultivate. You guys can go on your own.”Hearing this, Ling Tian shook his head.
"Humph! You're so unwilling? This is a great thing. Where can you find such a good thing?”Li Qian 'er snorted coldly. Han Xue also looked at Ling Tian with a hopeful expression, but Ling Tian still shook his head. He had other plans for the auction, so he lied.
"Humph! Forget it, Han Xue, let's go. Let's ignore him. He's really a blockhead.”Seeing this, Li Qian 'er said angrily and left with Han Xue.
After Li Qian 'er and Han Xue left, Ling Tian exchanged his black robes for a white robe. He then tied his hair up and put on a mask and a bamboo hat before leaving the inn and heading straight for the auction house.
After arriving at the auction house, Ling Tian ignored the young lady and said,""I'm looking for your supervisor.”
After a while, the young lady led Ling Tian into the auction hall. At this moment, a middle-aged man walked out and frowned when he saw Ling Tian's attire. However, he still said,""Sir, what can I do for you?"
"I'm looking for you to make a deal. I wonder if you dare to do it.”Ling Tian replied in a hoarse voice.
"Trading?" The middle-aged man asked. "Yes, I wonder if you dare to do it?”
"There's nothing that our auction house doesn't dare to do. Don't worry, I can make the decisions here.”The middle-aged man looked at Ling Tian with displeasure.
"Alright, this is what I want to sell. Take a look first.”Hearing this, Ling Tian nodded his head and took out a storage ring and passed it to the middle-aged man.
Seeing this, the middle-aged man didn't look at it. Instead, he poured out everything in the storage ring. An old man walked out from behind him and began to inspect the items on the ground. The middle-aged man, who had a calm expression on his face, was a little surprised when he saw the items on the ground.
Seeing this, Ling Tian nodded his head and did not say anything. He then sat down at the side and waited for the old man and the middle-aged man to examine him.
" Sealing Crystals, Magic Scrolls, Jade Slips, Mystic Weapons…" There were many items on the ground, all of which were obtained by Ling Tian after killing the geniuses of the various races in the South Flower Mystic Realm. While these geniuses might not be that strong, their items were quite valuable. In order to allow them to obtain more rewards in the Mystic Realm, the experts of the various races had prepared many for them. Moreover, they had more or less gained something in the South China Mystery Realm. As for Ling Tian, other than the items related to forging weapons and alchemy, as well as the items related to formations, everything else was left untouched.
He didn't expect these geniuses to be so rich. Otherwise, how could they have escaped so miserably back then?
However, Ling Tian made a copy of those jade slips and did not take out those that could not be removed. This was because Ling Tian wanted to read ten thousand books and travel ten thousand miles. After all, the stones of other mountains could be used to attack jade.
Fifteen minutes later, the old man stood up and said to the middle-aged man,""I've cleared them all. Seven Profound World Realm sealing crystals and ten magic scrolls. 200 Saint-tier sealing crystals, 300 magic scrolls, two low-tier spirit treasures, 19 top-tier ancient treasures, 62 high-tier ancient treasures, 783 mid-tier ancient treasures, three top-tier Saint-tier secret arts, 57 high-tier secret arts, 342 mid-tier, and 1.93 trillion spirit stones.”
Hearing this, the middle-aged man opened his mouth wide. This was really a big deal. He thought for a moment and frowned as he walked towards Ling Tian,""Sir, the auction is ongoing right now. Our auction house can't raise so many spirit stones at the moment. Moreover, you have many items that meet the auction requirements. Do you want to auction them? Don't worry, because of such a large transaction, our auction house can only charge you 1% of the auction fee. What do you think?"
Ling Tian pondered for a moment before replying,""Auction is fine, but you don't have to pay now. You should take a look at what I want to buy.”As he spoke, he handed a jade slip to the old man beside him.
The old man took the jade slip and read it to the middle-aged man,""200 types of Saint Rank high-level spirit herbs, a total of 1,000 stalks. 150 types of spirit ores, a total of 1,000 portions. There were 430 types of mid-tier Saint Realm spirit herbs, 10,000 stalks. There were 360 types of mid-tier Saint Realm spirit ores, 10,000 portions…A total of 3 trillion spirit stones.”
"What?! Three trillion!" The middle-aged man was shocked when he heard the old man's report. The old man nodded and said," Yes, three trillion. However, there are some spirit herbs and spirit ores that we don't have at the auction. Moreover, there aren't that many of them, so we can only take out 80% of the items. However, what we don't have are the more precious items. Therefore, the total price is two trillion.”
"Oh." Hearing this, the middle-aged man nodded his head. The prices of both parties were about the same, and Ling Tian had given him some valuable items. Thus, even if Ling Tian didn't pay any more spirit stones, the auction wouldn't suffer too much of a loss, and the middle-aged man was relieved.
Hearing this, Ling Tian could only smile lightly. He did not expect the auction to be able to produce so many items. The middle-aged man walked towards Ling Tian and smiled,""Sir, we still need to prepare for your transaction. The auction is starting now, so why don't you participate in the auction first? Don't worry, we have reserved some private rooms in the auction house. We'll give you one for free. What do you think?”
"Alright, I also want to see how much my things are worth.”Ling Tian replied in a fake voice.
Under the respectful escort of the middle-aged man, Ling Tian arrived at the distinguished private room. Looking at the luxurious decorations in the private room, Ling Tian was no longer as surprised as before.
He didn't care much about the auction's content. Instead, he sized up the entire auction house.
There were four private rooms in the auction house. They were Heaven, Earth, Black, and Yellow. The Heaven Class private rooms were usually reserved for those with power and strength. As for the Earth Grade private rooms, they were reserved for people like Ling Tian.
The Seventh Princess Li Qian 'er and Han Xue seemed to be in the Earth-rank private room as well. It was number 17.
Ling Tian wasn't too surprised by this. After all, the two ladies were people of high status. Especially the Seventh Princess Li Qian 'er. There were only a few people in Andu who didn't know her. As for the auction items, other than the rare spiritual herbs or spiritual ores that he needed, Ling Tian would never bid for anything else. Because he knew what he needed. Meanwhile, Ling Tian also took a look at his two low-rank spiritual treasures, and he was surprised to find that they were sold for 76 billion spiritual stones and 83 billion spiritual stones respectively.
Ling Tian was very satisfied with this. He never used a high-grade mystic weapon in front of others. Other than the fact that the treasures were tempting, it was also because he did not want to rely too much on external items.
Not long after, the auction came to an end. Ling Tian shook his head and waited for the middle-aged man to arrive. After a while, a middle-aged man walked in. He was the manager of the auction house.
"Sir, everything you want is here. The items you sold are worth a total of 2.18 trillion spirit stones. This is your remaining inspiration, please keep it.”The middle-aged man said to Ling Tian as he passed two storage rings to Ling Tian.
Ling Tian took the storage ring and nodded his head,""Yes, that's right, but I also bought something worth 60 billion spirit stones at the auction, so you can take out 60 billion spirit stones from here. Also, I want to buy a high-grade Demonic Insect Ring. Do you have it here?”As he spoke, Ling Tian passed the storage ring containing the spiritual stones to the middle-aged man.
The middle-aged man took the storage ring and thought for a moment."Demon Insect Ring? The highest grade Demonic Insect Ring we can sell here is the top advanced grade. What do you think?”
"Alright, give me one." Ling Tian nodded his head. " It's 16 billion spirit stones for the high-grade Demonic Insect Ring," the middle-aged man said." You still have 104 billion spirit stones left. Here."”As he spoke, the middle-aged man took out some spirit stones and returned the storage ring to Ling Tian.
Ling Tian took the storage ring and heard the middle-aged man say,""Your auction item will be sent to you immediately. Please wait a moment.”Hearing this, Ling Tian nodded his head.
He came to the auction this time with a deeper meaning. Rather than keeping these unwanted things in his hands, he might as well sell them and exchange them for something useful to him. He had also thought of selling them in batches, but that was too troublesome. It was better to take the risk and solve it all at once. In any case, he was currently living in the royal courier station, and he reckoned that the auction house would not dare to openly pick.
Zhan royal family's authority. As for the secret investigation, other than Han Xue, Li Qian 'er, and her two guards, who else knew about it? Moreover, they all thought that he was cultivating in his room!
As for the auction house directly taking him down without any transaction, he had never thought about it at all. He did not believe that an auction house would destroy his reputation for such a small number of spirit stones. Speaking of spirit stones, two trillion was really impressive. Although the energy contained in spirit stones and spirit crystals was 100:1, or even less. However, the higher the grade, the purer the spiritual energy it contained, and the greater the benefits it had for cultivation.
Moreover, some high-level formations, such as teleportation formations, had very strict requirements for spirit stones. They had to reach a certain level.
The higher their cultivation, the purer the qi in their bodies would be, and the higher the level of spirit stones they needed to cultivate. Another point was that whether it was high-grade spirit meridians or crystal stones, they were relatively rare. Therefore, the exchange ratio between spirit stones was not quite 100:1, except for low-grade spirit stones for mid-grade spirit stones because their level was too low.
However, it was different if a mid-grade spirit stone was exchanged for a high-grade spirit stone. A high-grade spirit stone could be exchanged for a top-grade spirit stone at a rate of 200:1. Therefore, a low-grade spirit crystal could only be exchanged for 100 million spirit stones, but in fact, it was far more than that. Therefore, two trillion Spiritual Stones was too little to exchange for Spiritual Crystals.
Not long after, the items that Ling Tian had obtained from the auction were sent over. Ling Tian bade farewell to the middle-aged man before leaving the auction house.
After leaving, Ling Tian took a shortcut back to the relay station and entered his room through the window.
After changing out of his clothes, Ling Tian began to cultivate and wait for Han Xue and the rest to return. However, after waiting for a long time, there was still no one. Just as Ling Tian was about to head out to take a look, Han Xue and the rest returned. Behind them was an old woman in her fifties. She had her hair up and her face was as fair as a young girl's. She was wearing a gray robe.
The first impression she gave Ling Tian was that she was unfathomable. Ling Tian was certain that she was not in the first realm but in the second realm.
However, Ling Tian was unable to see her clearly because he had concealed her aura. The moment Han Xue saw Ling Tian, she said to the old lady,""Master, this is the Ling Tian I mentioned to you.”After saying that, he turned to Ling Tian and said," Ling Tian, this is my master. Her surname is Li. You can call her Elder Li.”
Hearing this, Ling Tian looked at the old lady and said,""Hello, Elder Li."
"Yes." The old lady nodded her head and looked at Ling Tian,""So you're Ling Tian. You're quite pretty, but your talent seems to be a little lacking. Forget about it, you're quite ambitious, learning from those geniuses and accumulating so much in the early stages. Aren't you afraid that you'll still accumulate until you die of old age? In the end, my Hanxue is a genius.”
Hearing this, Ling Tian could only smile. Perhaps in the eyes of the two ladies, the old lady was just commenting and teaching him, but how could he not tell that the old lady was telling him to stay away from Han Xue?
However, he believed that time would prove everything for him, whether he was right or wrong.
Seeing that Ling Tian did not say anything, Elder Li thought that Ling Tian had already understood what he meant. Thus, he nodded his head and did not continue speaking to Ling Tian. Instead, he started chatting with Han Xue and the rest.
Seeing that he did not have any intention of being ignored, Ling Tian bade farewell and returned to his room to cultivate.
