Top Luck: Leading the family to cultivate immortality

Chapter 160 Flame Fruit

After returning to the cave, Lin Tianming immediately entered the room.

I just got the elixir prescription, and I just took a rough look at it. When I returned to the cave, I naturally had to study it carefully.

Sitting on the stone bed, he took out the elixir he bought from the stall area, and then used his spiritual consciousness to check it out.

Half a quarter of an hour later, Lin Tianming withdrew from his consciousness and then fell into thinking.

This dragon bone elixir recipe is very complete. According to his estimation, it is definitely a genuine elixir recipe.

But where should I get the main ingredient of this elixir, which is the demon elixir of the Qinglong Jiao?
If you can't find the Qinglong Jiao, you can't get the inner elixir, and you can't refine it.

Thinking of this, Lin Tianming felt a little helpless. He could only put this matter behind him and try to find it again when he had the opportunity later. Although the Qinglong Jiao was rare, it was not without hope.

In the quiet night, Lin Tianming closed his eyes tightly, circulated his skills for a long time, and began to meditate and practice to kill some time while waiting to participate in tomorrow's auction.

The next day, Lin Tianming opened his eyes that had been closed all night. After tidying up the room, he ended his practice and walked out of the room.

As soon as they went out, Lin Shilu also walked out not far from the next door, and the two met each other.

Lin Shilu looked slightly excited and said casually:

"Tianming, let's go to the auction together. There may be an exchange meeting organized by colleagues. We can't miss it."

Lin Tianming chuckled, and Lin Shilu walked out of the small courtyard and walked towards the auction in the center of Fang City.

There were many monks along the way, all walking in the same direction.

After passing through several bluestone streets, Lin Tianming and his two men came to the square at the entrance of the auction.

When the two stopped, a voice came. "What a coincidence, I can bump into Brother Lin wherever I go."

The two of them turned around and saw Ye Pinghai walking towards them. They immediately stepped forward and clasped their fists in greeting.

"Brother Ye, the auction is very boring. You might as well go with me. The two of us can talk a few words to relieve our boredom."

Upon hearing Lin Shilu's invitation, Ye Pinghai did not refuse his kindness.

Since the foundation-building monks did not have to queue up, the three of them passed the long queue of Qi-training monks and headed towards the entrance.

A deacon from Fangshi who was on the seventh level of Qi training seemed to know the two of them. He immediately came up to greet them and said with a smile:
"I've met Senior Ye and Senior Lin. Please come in with the three seniors."

Lin Shilu nodded, but still took out Fangshi's token, and then took out 30 yuan of spiritual stones and handed them to the monk who spoke.

The deacon in charge of collecting the admission fee glanced at it, took the spirit stone respectfully, and then asked a monk next to him to lead the way.

The three of them followed the Qi Practitioner in front of them, walked straight to the second floor, and finally entered a private room.

The three of them took their seats, while the monk leading the way was waiting at the entrance.

Since there was still some time before the auction, Lin Shilu took out the spirit tea, and the three of them chatted while drinking tea.

With nothing to do, Lin Tianming thought about the Dragon Bone Pill. Considering Ye Pinghai's second-level high-level alchemy skills and having been immersed in alchemy for more than 60 years, there might be some methods or prescriptions.

Thinking of this, Lin Tianming said to Ye Pinghai:

"Grandpa Hai, do you have any second-level elixir prescriptions that can be used to assist in body refining?"

"The second-level elixir used by body refining monks?"

Ye Pinghai looked stunned, and after thinking about it, he directly said no, completely dispelling Lin Tianming's illusions.

Second-level elixirs are inherently precious and must be taken by body-refining monks. Such elixirs are even more rare.

Lin Tianming looked a little disappointed, but he was not discouraged. Thinking of the Dragon Bone Pill recipe, he asked:

"Grandpa Hai, Tianming got an ancient elixir recipe yesterday. Can you help me take a look at it?"

Hearing this, Ye Pinghai looked a little excited.

He is also an alchemy madman with a very high level of talent. When he saw that there were ancient elixirs to study, he immediately became interested.

"Oh? Bring it to me and take a look."

Lin Tianming's face lit up, he randomly took out the dragon bone elixir prescription and handed it over respectfully.

Ye Pinghai took the jade slip, used his spiritual consciousness, and looked up the contents recorded in the jade slip.

After less than half an hour, Ye Pinghai said with a pity expression:

"This elixir is real, but where can I find the inner elixir of the Qinglong Jiao, the main ingredient of this elixir? It is almost impossible to refine it."

When Lin Tianming heard Ye Pinghai's explanation, his expression became even uglier.

Suddenly, Ye Pinghai seemed to have thought of something, and he changed the subject.

"I once got the handbook of a third-level alchemist. The alchemist who left the handbook was also a strange person. He once couldn't find the main ingredient of the elixir. Finally, he looked for a demon elixir with the same properties as a substitute, and he was able to make it. Make an elixir with the same medicinal properties."

Hearing what Ye Pinghai said, Lin Tianming was suddenly enlightened.

There is almost no chance of the Azure Dragon Jiao's demon elixir, but he can't wait long. He has been at the first level of foundation building for almost two years. Although he can slowly increase his cultivation through meditation, he really doesn't want to talk about this cultivation speed. .

If there is no other way to wait, maybe you can try the method Ye Pinghai said.

Thinking of this, Lin Tianming's face became radiant again.

Seeing that Lin Tianming was still silent, Ye Pinghai immediately took out a jade slip from his storage bag and handed it to Lin Tianming.

"This?" Lin Tianming became confused.

"This is the third-level alchemist's handbook that I got. Although the things recorded are inconsistent, there are still many merits." Ye Pinghai explained.

Seeing that Lin Tianming had not accepted the jade slip for a long time and did not show any expression, Lin Shilu on the side quickly reminded him.

"Why don't you thank you, Grandpa Hai? This was summed up by a third-level alchemist."

After hearing Lin Shilu's reminder, Lin Tianming came back to his senses and said with an extremely sincere expression:

"Thank you, Grandpa Hai. I will definitely return it to you after I understand it."

Ye Pinghai chuckled and said:

"It doesn't matter. I have already understood this thing and gave it to you. You can decide what to do with it yourself."

Lin Tianming was very touched when he thought of Ye Pinghai, who was alone and yet offered help to him again and again, but he really needed this note at the moment.

As for when you have the ability in the future, let’s repay the favor.

Thinking of this, Lin Tianming stopped being pretentious, took the jade slip respectfully, and then put it into his storage bag.

Lin Shilu and Ye Pinghai nodded with satisfaction and continued chatting.

Less than half an hour passed, and there was a burst of noise in the auction hall, and several people quickly averted their eyes.

Looking at it, the entire auction on the second floor is more than twice the size of the first floor. In the center, there is also a high platform, surrounded by hundreds of seats and hundreds of private rooms.

At this time, there were only about a hundred seats in the public area occupied, and the rest were empty.

As an immortal old man appeared on the high platform in the center, the noise in the whole place fell silent.

The old man looked calm and always had a smile on his face. He bowed to the hundreds of monks below and the surrounding private rooms, and then said;
"Xue Chong, the veteran, was invited to preside over the foundation building auction today. We are all foundation building monks. As for the rules of the auction, I will not tell you, everyone is relatively clear."

"Haha, many of my colleagues can't wait any longer. Without further ado, let's start the auction of the first item."

After speaking, a piece of monster beast skin appeared in the old man's hand. The entire skin was dark brown and was relatively well preserved. "A piece of skin from the second-level high-grade monster beast Wild Spirit Bull. This beast's defensive capabilities are extremely powerful. The skin is an excellent material for refining inner armor or making talismans. The base price is 800 yuan of spirit stones. Each increase in price must not be lower. For ten spiritual stones.”

Before he finished speaking, several monks suddenly started bidding on the scene, all of them seemed to be weapon refiners or talisman makers.

"850 spirit stones!"

"880 spirit stones!"

The first item to be auctioned was a second-grade top-grade animal hide, and the price continued to rise. It was obvious that the auction house was paying more attention to this auction.

Lin Tianming and the three of them were sitting in the private room chatting. Looking at the heated scene below, Ye Pinghai joked:

"Brother Lin, the hide of this wild spirit cow is good and large enough. It is a good material for refining inner armor."

Lin Shilu chuckled and then replied:
"My little brother is also planning to take this thing. If it is used well, it will be enough to create two sets of second-level low-grade inner armor."

Just over ten breaths have passed, and the price of the Savage Bull has reached 150 pieces of spirit stones.

At such a price, there are fewer and fewer monks bidding below, and only three people are still insisting.

Lin Shilu also opened his bidding for the first time.

"200 yuan of spirit stones."

"One thousand and two hundred and fifty spiritual stones." A monk suddenly blurted out.

"300 yuan of spirit stones."

As Lin Shilu raised the price significantly, the monks who had been bidding seemed to give up.

For several seconds, no one raised the price, and Xue Chong announced on the spot that the first lot was sold.

Lin Shilu prepared the spirit stones and completed the transaction with Xue Chong across the restriction. The two parties obtained the spirit stones and the auction items from each other.

After the dust settled on the first treasure, Xue Chong was very satisfied with the price and then continued to preside over it.

"The second treasure is a six-leaf rosewood tree, a second-level spiritual material. It is an excellent material for refining weapons. The base price is three hundred spiritual stones. Each increase in price must not be less than ten spiritual stones."

The first treasure ignited the atmosphere, but the second one was much inferior, but since there were many monks competing to bid.

"320 spirit stones!"

……

The monks below were still bidding fiercely. Lin Tianming didn't know how to practice weapons, so he naturally didn't have any ideas. Lin Shilu and Ye Pinghai also looked down on these things.

The second treasure was photographed by a monk on the third floor of the foundation for 520 spiritual stones.

The hot auction continued, and in a blink of an eye it was time to reach the last ten items.

Hundreds of treasures were auctioned successively, almost all of which were second-level spiritual objects, including a lot of elixir materials, various spiritual mineral materials, and various monster beast bodies.

During this period, Lin Tianming spent more than 1000 spirit stones, bought several elixir materials, and a second-level low-grade monster inner elixir, which he planned to let Zijin Eagle take to see if he could break through the second level.

Lin Shilu and Ye Pinghai also took action several times, and each took some elixir materials and weapon refining materials. They were not very precious, but they were not ordinary things either.

With the auction of ordinary objects completed, the finale that everyone has been waiting for is coming.

After a short rest, Xue Chong took out a jade box again and opened it.

I saw a fist-sized spiritual fruit lying in the jade box in Xue Chong's hand. The entire spiritual fruit looked crystal clear and exuded an alluring aroma.

There was a hint of fire in Xue Chong's eyes, but he quickly regained his composure and began to introduce.

"A second-level middle-grade spiritual fruit, the Flame Fruit. This fruit is extremely rare. It has the effect of enhancing qi and blood, as well as forging the skin and refining the spirit. The base price is one thousand, two hundred yuan of spiritual stones. Each increase in price must not be less than 200 yuan of spiritual stones!"

As soon as he finished speaking, many monks' faces turned rosy and their breathing became rapid.

Lin Tianming was equally excited when he saw this thing.

He had seen this fruit in various classics a long time ago. It can not only strengthen the physical body, but also strengthen the spiritual consciousness. Its effect is very significant, but it can only be taken once, and the effect of multiple doses will be halved.

Even so, the effect of this fruit is very good, and monks who have never taken it will not give up the opportunity easily.

Although he had participated in several auctions and exchange meetings, he had never encountered it before. After finally encountering it, he naturally would not let it go.

While Lin Tianming was distracted, more than a dozen monks were vying to bid. The price of the Flame Fruit had reached more than 500 spiritual stones, and was still rising.

Lin Tianming was determined to get this result and immediately joined the bidding.

"One thousand, eight hundred and fifty spiritual stones!"

He raised 100 spirit stones in one breath, which caused many monks on the field to secretly speculate.

But even so, there are still seven or eight monks who don't want to give up. After all, many of these monks bidding are from family clans and other forces. Their backgrounds are profound and their financial resources are not much inferior to his.

"One thousand, eight hundred and fifty spiritual stones!"

"One thousand eight hundred yuan spirit stone!"

……

The price continues to rise. After more than ten rounds of bidding, the price of the Flame Fruit has reached [-] spirit stones and will soon break through the [-] spirit stones mark.

By this time, most of the monks had given up.

The Flame Fruit was already priced at a premium, and only three people, including Lin Tianming, were still bidding, and they were all monks in the private room.

"One thousand, eight hundred and fifty spiritual stones!"

Lin Tianming did not hesitate and raised 150 spiritual stones in one go, causing all the monks in the room to exclaim.

He has taken a lot of spiritual fruits and elixirs for body refining, and is very clear about the benefits of body refining and spiritual consciousness.

Even if the premium is serious, he will not hesitate. After all, such a treasure can only be found but not sought.

After he shouted out the price, the monks in the other two private rooms fell silent for a short time, as if they were planning to give up.

Three breaths passed, and just when Xue Chong was about to announce the bidding results, one of the private rooms shouted out a price, as if he wanted to make a final bid.

"2000 Yuan Lingshi!"

"Two thousand and nine hundred yuan spirit stones!"

Before he finished speaking, Lin Tianming immediately increased the amount of spiritual stones by 100 yuan.

Hearing the price quoted by Lin Tianming again, the only monk who made a bid fell completely silent.

After five breaths passed, Xue Chong bowed towards the private room where Lin Tianming was, and then announced the bidding results.

"Congratulations to the fellow Taoist in the private room for buying the Flame Fruit with two thousand and one hundred yuan of spiritual stones!"

Lin Tianming breathed a sigh of relief when he heard Xue Chong announce the result.

Surprised, he quickly took out two thousand 100 yuan spirit stones and waved with one hand. All the spirit stones passed through the forbidden light curtain and fell steadily into Xue Chong's hands.

Xue Chong glanced with his consciousness and confirmed that the number was correct, then threw the jade box out. It also passed through the light curtain and was caught by Lin Tianming.

At this time, Lin Tianming was a little excited. He picked up the blood-red flame fruit and couldn't put it down to observe it.

In the center of the auction house, Xue Chong chuckled and presided over the auction to continue again.
