Tian Yuan Xian Ji

Chapter 331 Helmsman ([-])

Three days passed in a flash. Tangning was cultivating with her eyes closed in the room when there was a knock on the door.

He opened his eyes, got up and turned around the raised part of the wall, the stone door opened, and a man stood outside: "Senior Tang, the auction will start in two hours, do you want to go there now?"

"Let's go!"

The man led him out of the main hall and came to the gully on the mountain peak. This ditch is very unique, as if it was split by someone with a sharp knife.

The man raised the magic weapon and jumped down. Tangning followed behind him, passing through the clouds and mist, but saw that the lower part was getting wider and wider, and a cyan light curtain enveloped the ground.

The two fell to the ground, the man waved his hand, and a talisman passed through the blue light curtain.

Soon, the light curtain melted a gap, and the man said: "Senior, the auction hall is inside, and the junior has other matters, so I won't accompany the senior inside."

Tang Ning's figure flashed, and she entered the light curtain. In front of her was a large hall covering an area of ​​one hundred feet. In front of the hall, there were two guards, a man and a woman, both of whom had built their foundations.

Pushing open the heavy stone gate, inside is an empty hall with a size of several tens of feet. The decoration is resplendent and golden, and the whole hall is shining with golden light.

At the moment, there were only two or three people seated below the main hall. Hearing the sound, someone looked back. Tangning found an inconspicuous corner and sat down. She turned her head and swept over the few people. There was no one he was looking for.

After less than a stick of incense, the stone gate opened again, and another person entered. As time went by, more and more people entered the hall. Some were wearing masks, some were wearing bamboo hats to hide their figures .

Because Tangning didn't plan to buy anything, he just came here to try his luck and find someone, so he didn't want to be remembered by others, so he didn't change into the bamboo hat and black robe.

A few hours passed quickly, and when the auction started, the stone door at the back of the main hall opened, and two men came out, one was tall and the other was skinny, both of them were in the late stage of Foundation Establishment.

When the two reached the top, the burly man said: "Thank you, fellow daoists, for participating in this auction. This auction is jointly organized by various families in Runan. It is mainly to facilitate the transactions of fellow daoists. During the period, please consciously maintain order, do not quarrel, and bid for the exhibits with the highest bid."

"As for the two of us, I think many fellow Taoists already know each other, but there may be friends who come from afar who don't know each other. My name is Yu Huailin, and this Zhang Tianci."

"Don't gossip, let's invite our first auction item."

As soon as he finished speaking, a graceful woman behind the stone gate came to the stage holding a jade plate.

The man pulled the red cloth from the jade plate, revealing a room of glittering golden stones: "A piece of gold essence that weighs one catty six taels, all fellow Taoists are people who know what to buy, so I don't need to say much about the value of this thing." ! The starting price is [-] spirit stones, and the price will increase by [-] spirit stones each time, fellow daoists, please bid."

The so-called gold essence is the essence of gold. This piece of gold essence stands out from thousands of gold. It has spirituality and can absorb the spiritual energy of heaven and earth by itself. road.

But at present it is just a piece of gold essence with spiritual power. This kind of spiritual object is a rare treasure for those who refine weapons. Even many magic weapons contain gold essence. If such a piece of gold essence is added to the spirit weapon, The power can be upgraded to a higher level.

The audience was silent, and it took a long time before someone raised the number plate.

This object was finally purchased by a woman at a price of [-] spirit stones. After the transaction was completed, a second collection was pushed to the booth above, which was a set of formations.

The burly man began to introduce again.

Tang Ning's mind was not on the auction items. He turned his eyes sideways and secretly watched the unidentified people wearing masks to hide their figures.

There were about [-] or so monks in the whole hall participating in this auction, most of them did not cover their bodies, only some of them wore masks and bamboo hats.

This auction is organized privately by various families, and all the monks who come to participate are quite famous here, so there is no need to hide their identities, and those wearing masks and bamboo hats must not be local monks, or they have other secrets. His goal is these people.

Wei An might be among this group of people. According to the portrait information provided by Shui Yunzong, Wei An was a thin middle-aged man, about six feet tall. Tangning quickly locked his target on the two of them.

The rest of them were either tall or strong, they didn't fit Wei An's image, the most important thing was their cultivation.

Wei An is a late-stage monk in Foundation Establishment, and only four of the more than [-] people in the entire hall are late-stage monks, so it is easy to judge.

One of the four people was obviously not tall enough, and the other didn't wear a mask or bamboo hat at all.

So only these two fit the bill.

One of the two is wearing a black robe to cover up his figure, but it can still be seen that his figure is not strong, because the black robe is loose, if it is a strong person, the black robe will stick to the body, and look at his Standard height.

The other person only wore a mask, and his figure was thin and thin, somewhat similar to Wei An's.

Tangning quietly observed the behavior of the two from a corner.

Unknowingly, the auction has been going on for about an hour, and the two are still sitting in their seats without making a single move.

"Extreme spiritual tool Cloud Slashing Knife, the bidding price is [-] spirit stones, and the price increases by [-] each time. Fellow Taoists, please bid." Not long after the man above said, one of them raised his number plate.

"Fellow Daoist No. [-] offered [-] yuan, is there any fellow Daoist who wants to bid?"

The late-stage Foundation Establishment cultivator with a mask made a move. He raised his number plate and bid with him.

In the end, it was sold at a price of [-], and the man in the mask did not continue to increase the price.

The auction continued, and when it was coming to an end, a piece of bidding was taken out on the display stand, and the man tore off the green cloth, revealing a faint blue orb.

"This Yin Soul Bead is a collection of extremely yin qi, and it contains extremely pure yin qi. It is very beneficial to monks who practice this kind of technique. The starting price is [-] spirit stones, and the price increases by [-] each time. , please bid."

After the man finished speaking, His Highness was silent, and after a long time, one person slowly raised the number plate.

"Fellow Daoist No. [-] offered [-] yuan, is there anyone else who wants to bid?"

No one bid again, and in the end the Yin Soul Orb was bought by him, who was the late Foundation Establishment cultivator in black robe.

Tang Ning remained calm on the face, but her heart was locked on this person. The cultivation of corpse insects requires a lot of Yin energy.

This person not only cultivated in the late stage of foundation establishment, but also bought treasures such as the Yin Soul Orb, which is very suitable for the person behind the scenes. No matter whether this person is the Wei An he is looking for, this person is a serious suspect.

The auction went on for a while, and all the auctioned items were sold. When it came to the free trading session, everyone went up to display their items one after another, but the man in black robe did not make any more moves.

In the end, the auction ended, and everyone left the hall one after another, disappearing into light.

Tang Ning followed the man, keeping a distance that was vaguely visible to the naked eye. She flew away for about an hour or two, and saw him fall into a forest until she disappeared.

He waited in the sky for a while, but he didn't see his eclipse come back, so he guessed that he must be hiding in this mountain.

So the light went straight down, and Fang fell to the ground, only to see a ray of light rushing towards him, as fast as a thunderbolt.

Tang Ning was shocked. She flipped her hands, and the golden bowl swelled in the wind, facing the green light that shot straight ahead.

There was a loud "bang", the golden bowl shook violently, and the light suddenly faded.

Tang Ning retreated violently and looked around, only to see a man wearing a bamboo hat and wearing a black robe appeared across from him at some point.

The distance between the two was thirty or forty feet, the man made a move, and the green light shot back into his hand, it was a small green sword.

"Who are you? Why have you been following me? What is your purpose?" The man said hoarsely
Thoughts were spinning in Tangning's mind. The other party found that she was following her, luring her here, and then ambushed her.However, if he failed to succeed in one blow, he stopped immediately, which meant that he did not intend to fight to the death.

Is this person the mastermind behind the corpse worm? If he is the real person, if he tells the truth, he will fight to the death and kill him.

But if this person is not the person he was looking for, how can he reasonably explain the current situation in order to calm his anger? Tangning didn't want to fight to the death with a late-stage Foundation Establishment monk for no reason.

The current situation is very unfavorable for him. After all, the opponent's cultivation base is there, and there is no one to support him here. If he really fights, even with the help of the little white snake, he may not be able to defeat the opponent.

In an instant, he came up with several explanations in his mind, and finally said, "I am Tang Ning, a disciple of the Shuiyun Sect's intelligence department. You killed a disciple of my sect without knowing it? Why bother to ask?"

The reason he moved out of the Shuiyun Sect was to make the other party a little afraid. The other party was a casual cultivator, and he definitely didn't know the internal disciples of the Shuiyun Sect. answer.

"I have no grievances with Shuiyunzong in the past, and I have no enmity in recent days. I have never had anything to do with each other. Why have you ever killed your sect's disciple? Don't lie."

"On the sixth day of September, two junior brothers from our sect's inspection department followed the disciples of the Demon Sect in Wutian County. One of them was brutally killed, and the other was wounded and returned to the sect. Xiu. You bought the Yin Soul Orb at the auction today. It was clearly for the purpose of cultivating ghosts. How can there be such a coincidence in the world?

"Joke, is it true that ghost cultivators are the only ones in the world who need Yin soul beads? If it's really what I did, I still need to talk to you about this? I have always been a loner, and I don't want to cause trouble. I don't care about today's matter, you guys Check it out next time, if you follow me again, don't blame me for being ruthless." The man said and disappeared.
