Chapter 3468: Entering the Auction House (Revised)
th their own eyes, they found it hard to believe that this pale golden flame could be the life force of a living being!This also made it impossible for them to imagine the abundance of vitality that J...The entire Qiankun Auction House was a circular building, with a simple internal structure.
The auction platform was also round, located right in the center, with a diameter of a hundred zhang.
The auction platform was surrounded by tiers upon tiers of seats, ninety-nine levels high, capable of accommodating millions!
And at the very top, there is a circle of rooms, also with ninety-nine, which are reserved for some VIP guests.
Many powerful people came to the Qiankun Auction House, unwilling to reveal their identities. They would enter such private rooms.
And though these rooms were small and unassuming, with only a single window each, they were built from special materials and covered in various seals and enchantments. These could block divine senses and a certain degree of attacks.
It is said that even a powerful figure at the level of Heaven's Venerable, their divine sense would be unable to probe the situation within this private room.
As long as one remains within the room, not only will their identity remain concealed, but security concerns will also be virtually nonexistent.
Jiang Yun is now in one of the rooms!
Of course, he got lucky thanks to that Longevity Pill. It was also Yu who specially gave him a private room to please him!
Although Ginger Cloud had been to the Taiyi Realm several times, this was his first time truly entering the Kun Palace Auction House. He walked directly to the window and looked down from a high vantage point!
Although Jiang Yun had decided to spend his own money to complete the task given to him by the Angel of Patrol, he still didn't want to give up on the idea of seizing it until the very last moment.
Therefore, he carefully observed the entire auction house, looking to see if, should he actually make a bid and seize it, he could find a safe route of escape.
Although the auction hasn't begun yet, there are already quite a few guests inside, sitting in groups on the chairs surrounding the area.
With all his attention focused elsewhere, Jiang Yun didn't notice that ever since they entered the room, Tie Ru'nan's eyes had been glued to the maid like a hawk. He just stared at her intently.
To such an extent that the maid felt a shiver down her spine when looked at by the man, as tough as iron. However, as a maid, she couldn't offend the guest.
Finally, driven to her wit's end, she had no choice but to speak up and address Tie Ruonan: "Miss, could it be that we've met before"
"No!" Tie Ruonan also came back to his senses and shook his head.
Why has that girl been staring at me since she came in
Ginger Cloud naturally heard the conversation between the two, and couldn't help but feel a little strange.
This Tie Ru male had always yearned to visit the Qiankun Auction House, but now that he was here, he wasn't looking at the auction house itself. Instead, his gaze was fixed on a maid standing there.
However, Ginger Cloud didn't pay any attention and turned her head to glance at the maidservant.
This maid looked to be only seventeen or eighteen years old, with a beautiful appearance. Her cultivation level was in the realm of reality, and there wasn't anything particularly special about her.
Shaking her head, Jiang Yun also didn't bother to care what Tie Rumao was looking at. She refocused her attention on the buildings here.
"I'm sorry, I think you look a lot like a friend of mine, so I looked at you twice," Iron said to the maidservant.
By the way, what's your name
Since Tie Ru Nan has already apologized, the maidservant naturally couldn't have any further complaints. She smiled and said, "My name is Yu Ting!"
This name, like jade, sounds fake at first listen. It's clearly a batch of maids specially trained by the Qiankun Auction House.
Tie Ruonan nodded, then took one last deep look at Yu Ting before saying anything else. He then walked over to Jiang Yun's side and looked down as well.
At first glance, Tie Ruonan couldn't help but be astonished. He had finally gotten a glimpse of the true face of this auction house.
While Jiang Yun and Tie Ruxian waited for the auction to begin, outside of the Qiankun Building, Xu Buxiu, who had been ignored by Jiang Yun, stood there with a gloomy face, holding a communication jade slip in his hand. The light of communication flickered on and off constantly.
As Ru Yu once reminded Jiang Yun, ever since Xu Bufan was scared back to the Xu family, the Xu family has done everything to save face. Not only did they send Xu Bushu to challenge Jiang Yun to a life-or-death duel, but they also sent a large number of experts to surround the entire Qianyun Building.
Now, the servants of the Xu family gathered around were reporting the surveillance situation to Xu Buxiu.
None of them saw Jian Yun and Tie Rumu leave.
Xu Buxiu's face was grim, he muttered to himself: "They must have gone straight from the Heavenly Palace to the auction house!"
But you think that, I can't find you!
"After the auction is over, Yu will inevitably send you directly to the Taiyi Realm."
“As for the ninety-nine teleportation formations leading from the Qiankun Auction House to the Tai'er Realm, I have sent people to guard each and every one of them. There is no way you can escape!”
For Ginger Cloud, it's not just Xu Bufan who hates her to the bone anymore. This Xu Xiuxiu also harbors murderous intentions towards Ginger Cloud.
Therefore, no matter what the cost, he must find both Jiang Yun and Tie Ruxian.
Thus, the entire Xu family, under Xu Bushu's command, immediately began to operate.
A multitude of cultivators set off in all directions, each heading to their designated locations, waiting patiently like hares in a snare for the arrival of Jiang Yun and Tie Ruo Nan.
Within the Qiankun Auction House, Jiang Yun let out a helpless sigh and had to give up on the idea of snatching it.
Because the entire auction house was fortified with prohibitions and defensive formations, it was incredibly well-protected.
Not to mention him, even if a celestial being came to snatch it, they would probably fail!
Therefore, Ginger Cloud no longer looked any further, closed her eyes, and waited for the auction to begin.
While Tie Ru Nan was still occasionally turning his head to look at the maidservant named Yu Ting, until the auction began, he shifted his attention to the items being auctioned.
Gingercloud, however, almost always kept his eyes closed. He had already gone over the list of these items before and found none of them interesting.
Because this was just an ordinary auction, the number of attendees wasn't very high, probably only a few thousand people. However, this didn't affect the atmosphere of the auction at all.
Each item was quickly sold at a price that left Tie Ruxun speechless.
Jiang Yun's Longevity Pill made its grand finale appearance as the pièce de résistance.
Strangely enough, two individuals were constantly vying for this Longevity Pill, leading to a final auction price of a staggering one hundred and twenty thousand high-grade Heaven and Earth Stones!
This number was truly beyond Tie Ruonan's expectations, and even Jiang Yun was quite surprised.
This way, Ginger Cloud will end up with nearly 100,000 high-grade heaven stones!
Gingercloud took the storage device, didn't even look at it, and threw it directly to Tie Runan, scaring Tie Runan's heart racing.
At this size, it was her first time holding so many top-grade Heavenly Stones.
Jiang Yun looked at Ru Yu and smiled slightly. "Miss Ru Yu is very good at business. Next time, if I have any more items to auction, I will definitely come to Miss Ru Yu again!"
Jiang Yun's visit this time was just to test the waters and see the approximate value of the Shou Yuan Dan.
Of course, he didn't expect that with just 100,000 celestial stones, he could buy the finale item of the once-in-a-decade auction in three months.
Upon hearing this, the smile on her porcelain-like face became even more radiant. This was exactly what she wanted to hear from Ginger Cloud!
Although she lost four thousand top-grade Heaven and Earth Stones this time, with Jiang Yun's words, she would make even more Heaven and Earth Stones.
"Well then, young master, it's a deal!"
"Rest assured, it's all right. We still need to trouble Miss Ru Yu with sending us off!"
"Well, I don't know where the two of you are going."
"Whatever!"
As if understanding, Ru Yu knew that the two wouldn't tell her their true destination and so didn't ask further. She led them away.
After much tribulation, the two finally returned safely to the Great Yi Realm.
"Big brother, I'm going home first. I'll come back to you later!"
"Well then, go back!"
After bidding farewell to Tie Ruxuan, Jiang Yun did not notice that in the space array behind him, another ordinary-looking man walked out. He took a deep look at Jiang Yun and then followed after Tie Ruxuan!that talking was futile, so he stopped speaking. He shook his head and, with several hand seals in the darkness, opened a teleportation array: "Fellow Daoist, you can enter anytime you are ready!"Ging...
