Chapter 222: Treasures Appear Frequently, Xiao Yixian's Good Fortune!
Not long after, Gu Fei, Cai'er, and Xiao Yixian stopped at the end of a street.
This was clearly the end of Space Town; the surroundings appeared empty and desolate, no longer as noisy as it had been before.
Standing here was an ancient pavilion, and a sense of vicissitudes and antiquity permeated from within it.
Outside this ancient pavilion stood two old men, their bodies as motionless as statues.
The cultivation of these two had reached the level of Six Star Dou Zun, and experts of this caliber were merely used to guard the gate.
From this, one could see the high standards of the Space Auction here! "Let's go, we're going in!"
Gu Fei led Cai'er and Xiao Yixian directly toward the gate and flicked his finger.
A streak of red light shot out from his sleeve toward the two old men, who caught it steadily, revealing it to be a red jade token.
"Please..."
Upon receiving the red light, the expressions of the two emotionless old men flickered slightly, and their murky eyes scanned Gu Fei's group.
Then, one of them bowed slightly and flicked his sleeve; three black rays of light shot toward Gu Fei and his companions, hovering before them—they were pitch-black cloaks.
"Most people who enter here hide their identities; after all, one should not flaunt wealth, and this thing can defend against others' detection..."
Gu Fei explained with a smile and immediately put on the cloak; seeing this, Cai'er and Xiao Yixian also put theirs on.
Next, the three of them stepped into the ancient pavilion together.
"The three of you, please follow me!"
An old man in grey robes walked over quickly from the side and whispered to the three of them.
Gu Fei said nothing and followed him calmly.
After a few minutes, they stopped in front of a large bronze gate.
The old man also stopped here, cupped his hands toward Gu Fei, and without any further nonsense, quietly retreated.
"Let's go in!"
As Gu Fei spoke, he reached out and slowly pushed open the ancient bronze gate.
Inside was an ancient hall about the size of half a plaza; within the hall were many stone chairs, and at this moment, many figures were already seated upon them.
The entry of Gu Fei and his companions drew some glances, but they immediately looked away.
Gu Fei did not respond to these gazes at all and directly led the two women to sit in a row of more secluded seats.
"There are many people here, so we should take precautions, otherwise it won't be convenient to talk..."
Once the three were seated, Gu Fei used Space Power to surround them.
"Dong!"
After waiting for a short while, a melodious and crisp bell chime suddenly rang out in this quiet ancient hall.
In the center of the great hall, an old man with white hair and beard slowly appeared in the sight of everyone amidst the distorted space.
The old man was the master of Baojian Shan, Baoshan Laoren, who had seen countless treasures in his life.
He was also the host of this auction.
"Hehe, another Space Auction is here; I hope everyone has been well!"
Baoshan Laoren scanned the great hall, yet no one among those present responded to his greeting, making it appear somewhat awkward.
"Cough... since everyone has arrived, there is no need for more nonsense; this Space Auction begins now!"
Baoshan Laoren coughed drily.
Almost everyone became serious at this moment, looking forward to the auction items.
"Next, we begin the auction for the first item of this Space Auction!"
Baoshan Laoren wiped his palm across the void in front of him, and a pair of ghostly white bone wings appeared, with the faint sound of wind and thunder emanating from within the ancient wings.
"The Heavenly Demon Phoenix wings have appeared; I hope the Fragmented Map will follow..."
Gu Fei felt a sense of anticipation in his heart.
"Heavenly Demon Phoenix wings, the wings of the Heavenly Demon Phoenix Clan; if refined into a Flight Dou Technique, it would undoubtedly ensure that no one of the same level could surpass you in speed. It is truly an essential item for killing and escaping..." Baoshan Laoren said with a smile, not fearing to offend the Heavenly Demon Phoenix Clan with his words.
"The owner of these Heavenly Demon Phoenix wings wants to trade for an Eight-Rank Medicinal Pill that has experienced four-colored Pill Lightning, so if anyone is interested, please make your offer."
As Baoshan Laoren's voice fell, the great hall fell into silence once again.
Gu Fei communicated with Cai'er and Xiao Yixian, having no interest in this at all.
"I'll take it!"
After a few minutes of silence in the venue, a figure completely wrapped in a cloak spoke and casually tossed out a jade bottle.
"Does anyone else have a higher bid than this one?"
The surroundings were silent, and no one spoke up, which did not surprise Baoshan Laoren.
The original owner of these Heavenly Demon Phoenix wings only had a strength of around Six Star Dou Zun; being able to trade for an Eight-Rank Medicinal Pill with four-colored Pill Lightning was already quite good. If it were any more, no one would compete, as it simply wouldn't be worth it.
Seeing that no one spoke, Baoshan Laoren smiled and flicked his finger, and the Heavenly Demon Phoenix wings in front of him flew directly toward the person who had made the first bid.
This transaction was very simple; both sides exchanged goods simultaneously, but the items brought out were all of considerable value.
"Hehe, our second auction item for today."
After completing the first transaction, Baoshan Laoren smiled, and an object flashed before him again, which was a pale golden scroll.
"Vajra Glazed Body, a Heaven Tier Low Level Battle Technique. This technique was created by Liuli Shengzhe a thousand years ago. If cultivated to the peak, the physical body becomes like Vajra; it is a powerful Battle Technique that combines both attack and defense..."
When this Battle Technique appeared, Gu Fei also became a little interested.
Although he was not lacking in Heaven-tier techniques, this kind of physical body Battle Technique was still worth learning.
In the future, if Gu Fei wanted to create his own physical body Battle Technique, he could also use it as a reference.
"It seems my husband wants to buy this Battle Technique!" Cai'er noticed Gu Fei's gaze and smiled.
"Hmm... with the strength of my physical body, there is no problem in cultivating this technique!"
Gu Fei nodded with a smile.
"The owner of this Battle Technique wishes to exchange it for a Heaven Tier Low Level water-attribute cultivation method..."
At the center of the great hall, Baoshan Laoren introduced the price with a beaming smile.
Inside the great hall, there were indeed quite a few people who felt rather interested in this scroll of Battle Technique.
Therefore, someone made a bid very quickly.
In less than two minutes, four scrolls were tossed into the hands of Baoshan Laoren; clearly, four people had simultaneously set their hearts on this Vajra Glazed Body.
Gu Fei thought of some matters, and thus did not participate in the bidding.
"Does my husband not have a water-attribute cultivation method?"
Cai'er said with some regret.
"It is no matter..."
Gu Fei waved his hand, feeling no regret.
Very quickly, the transaction for the Vajra Glazed Body was completed, and the other three people let out displeased hums, clearly feeling slightly unhappy.
In the auctions that followed, the items that appeared became increasingly dazzling.
From Battle Techniques to cultivation methods, from Pills to rare treasures, from weapons to Medicine Cauldrons, and so on.
However, although these auction items were quite rare to ordinary people, Gu Fei did not bid on them.
It was not until a poison scripture named "Tianyou Poison Canon" appeared that Gu Fei did not hesitate to take action, using two Eight-Rank Medicinal Pills with five-colored Pill Lightning to help Xiao Yixian win the bid.
That so-called "Tianyou Poison Canon" was created several thousand years ago by a Dou Sheng powerhouse named Tianyou Dusheng; this Dou Sheng powerhouse loved using poison throughout his life, and thus left behind a volume of methods for refining various strange poisons.
Some of the deadly poisons within it were such that even a Dou Zun powerhouse would end up in a miserable state if they were contaminated by them.
For Xiao Yixian, the utility of this poison canon was immense; not only could it allow her to concoct poisons for her own cultivation, but it could also be used against enemies.
