Chapter 52 "Thunder Knife" [Please read]
The old man glanced around and saw that no one dared to be presumptuous, and nodded with satisfaction.
Then, he cleared his throat and briefly introduced his identity.
"Good evening to all new and old guests."
"Before the auction officially starts, let me briefly introduce myself."
"My name is Sun Han, and he is one of the organizers of the Xiaosongshan black market and also the auctioneer. The host of the meeting."
"I won't talk nonsense. Next, let's officially start the auction."
With that, the old man who claimed to be Sun Han took a white jade plate brought over by the subordinate next to him.
There was a green fruit on the plate. The shape was somewhat similar to an apple from the previous life. There were golden lines on the surface that surrounded the whole body. Under the illumination of the roof lights, it shone with a faint golden light.
Sun Han picked up the green fruit and said slowly to everyone in the audience: "The first item, the five-hundred-year-old 'Golden Xu Fruit', can be used for many first-level high-grade elixirs and a small number of second-order low-grade elixirs. Refining, the starting price is 100 spirit stones, and each increase must not be less than 5 spirit stones!"
"Now, the bidding begins!"
"120 spirit stones!" As soon as Sun Han finished speaking, someone in front of him couldn't wait to bid.
"150 spirit stones!" Others were not to be outdone and began to fight for it.
"175 spirit stones!"
"180 spirit stones!"
...
After a round of bidding, the Golden Sun Fruit was finally bought by a monk sitting in the box on the second floor for 250 spirit stones.
Although Yang Hao didn't know the specific value of Jin Xuguo, he knew from the reaction of everyone at the scene and the explanation from the old man that its value was definitely not low.
Not to mention that this Golden Sun Fruit is still five hundred years old, so it's only natural that it can be sold at such a high price.
However, for now, this medicinal material is of little value to him.
After all, he currently only has Soul Accumulating Pill, the only first-level high-grade elixir recipe on hand, and he cannot use such expensive medicinal materials for the time being.
After buying it, it is a pure waste of spiritual stones.
Even if it is to show off one's wealth, it is better to buy something useful than this thing.
Therefore, Yang Hao did not participate in this round of bidding.
Yang Hao had no interest in the next few auction items.
Long before the auction, he had already browsed the items in the auction from the tickets.
Most of them are of no use to him, either they are duplicates of what he already has, or they are temporarily unavailable like Jin Xuguo. There are only three products that he cares about.
They are:
a first-order high-grade, perfect reconnaissance magic weapon named "Faded Grass Ring" with a starting price of 800 spirit stones; a
second-order low-grade fine elixir called "Gu Ji Dan", which can make In the later stage of Qi refining, the monks strengthen the physical foundation, and the starting price is 400 spirit stones;
the first-level high-grade spell "Thunder Knife" allows the caster to summon thunder and lightning to attach to the blade to attack, causing great thunder and lightning damage to the enemy's spirit and body. , the starting price is 520 spirit stones.
But these three products are basically the last ones to appear, and the prices are definitely not low. With his current spiritual stone, he can only buy one.
Yang Hao thought about it carefully for a long time and decided to bid on the product that suited him best - the "Thunder Knife" technique!
Originally, he preferred the first investigative weapon, but just looking at its starting price, Yang Hao knew that there was a high probability that he would not be able to bid for it.
The Solid Foundation Pill was originally good, but after thinking about it again and again, he still felt that the Thunder Knife was more suitable for him.
This is mainly due to the rewards after completing the commissioned tasks.
After all, if you have an attacking magic weapon, you can't just wield it casually, right? That's such a waste.
Use it with the Thunder Knife to maximize the power of that magical weapon.
In addition, a previously captured technique "Charging Power" can further enhance the power of the thunder knife. The skills complement each other, which is another strong reason.
Finally, for Yang Hao, who has mastered alchemy skills, it is not cost-effective to buy finished elixirs, especially such expensive elixirs.
Although there is currently no way to obtain prescriptions for first-level mid-grade and above elixirs, there are quite a few low-grade first-order elixirs.
With a skill panel, as long as you pile up a few good entries, low-level elixirs may not be inferior to high-level elixirs.
Not to mention that pills are more likely to be resold, but powerful spells like Thunder Knife are not so easy to encounter again.
Therefore, to sum up, Yang Hao still chooses Thunder Knife.
Having determined his target, Yang Hao didn't pay much attention to the auction of other items.
But at this time, he had nothing else to do, so he could only enjoy the fierce bidding of others while waiting for the auction of the thunder knife.
About an hour later, it was finally the auction of the Thunder Knife. "Next is the third-to-last item in this auction, a top-grade first-class spell
, "Thunder Knife."
Enemies in the late stage of Qi will cause huge damage, so it is a must-have choice for home travel, killing and selling goods!" "The
starting price of the Thunder Knife is 520 spirit stones, and each increase in price must not be less than 10 spirit stones!" "
Now, the bidding begins!"
"620 Lingshi!"
As Sun Han shouted, the fierce bidding began again, and the first person even directly increased his bid by 200 Lingshi to show his determination.
But others would not back down and followed suit.
"700 spirit stones!"
"750 spirit stones!"
"800 spirit stones!"
...
"1,000 spirit stones!" This was Yang Hao's offer.
The sudden increase in price made the entire auction house silent. At this price, some people began to retreat.
But there were still many people following her.
"1020 spirit stones!"
"1100 spirit stones!" Yang Hao added 80 spirit stones again, and the rest of the people turned their attention to this wealthy man.
When they saw that this "rich man" only had the third level of Qi Refining, they couldn't help but sneered, looked at each other, and stopped raising the price.
In the end, "Thunder Knife" was successfully won by Yang Hao.
The remaining time passed quickly.
After the auction ended, Yang Hao took his ticket and went backstage to pay for the goods.
After getting the jade slip with "Thunder Knife" on it, Yang Hao couldn't wait to check it out.
First is the explanation of the technique.
"Thunder Knife" is one of the signature spells of the Luo family, one of the four major families in the city. It is famous for its huge damage and rapid speed, and its power is astonishing.
However, unlike "Flowing Water", the power of "Thunder Knife" will not decrease too much even if it is used by a monk who is not a direct bloodline of the Luo family.
And this is also the fundamental reason why so many people bid fiercely at previous auctions.
As for possibly offending the Luo family?
Those who dare to bid will not worry about this. The value of "Thunder Knife" already exceeds the possible harm.
At worst, he ran away to other places. The Luo family, a mere Qi refining family, didn't have such a big force to pursue him outside.
The following is the specific practice method of this technique, which includes three parts: sword technique, thunder control and body technique.
From this point of view alone, more than a thousand spiritual stones were not wasted.
Putting away the jade slip, Yang Hao felt the pitying glances coming from all around him, and the corners of his mouth under the mask couldn't help but twitch slightly.
The previous behavior of showing off wealth was indeed effective, and a lot of fish were caught.
He wrapped his black robe slightly tighter, quickly left the auction venue, and then pretended to be in a hurry to go to the black market.
The people hiding in the shadows saw this and used their spells to follow quietly.
