“Alright.” said Bing Yuan looking ice-cold.
Lin Feng nodded at Lan Jiao and smiled back to her out of politeness.
“Now, Leng Yue has bid twelve thousand purity stones of medium quality, is anyone willing to raise?” said Lan Jiao while smiling at the crowd. Nobody was answering. Twelve thousand for a spiritual weapon of that quality was already too expensive.
In order to practice cultivation, even for a cultivator of the Xuan Qi layer, so many purity stones of medium quality would have been enough to practice indefinitely.
“If there is nobody, I would like to congratulate the Blademaster on his new acquisition, the Moon-Breaking Blade.”
Lan Jiao smiled and continued: “The next object of our auction sales is an ancient cauldron. On the cauldron nine dragons are carved. This cauldron is hundreds of thousands of years old. It must have been used to concoct pills and weapons in ancient times but it seems that some parts are now missing. We cannot find out its level but the expert of our company, the Dream Pavilion, said that if no part was missing, it would be at least a Xuan level cauldron of high quality, a real treasure.”
“For everybody to understand clearly what parts are missing, we will show you the cauldron.”
When Lan Jiao finished talking, two people brought a cauldron. That cauldron was about one meter high. Its diameter was also about one meter. On the top, there were nine dragon carvings. They almost looked alive. Besides, there was one dragon which was looking up at the sky and uttering a long cry. It seemed like it was about to fly away. However, the eight other dragons seemed to be incomplete and did not look like the first dragon, as if that was the part that Lan Jiao had mentioned.
Besides, from a certain distance, that cauldron seemed to be absolutely normal and its carvings seemed to be releasing a strange Qi.
“I hope that you can trust our experts at the Dream Pavilion. This cauldron has some missing parts, yet it shouldn’t be inferior to a Ling level cauldron of higher quality. You can already use it to concoct pills. If it were intact, it would definitely be a treasure of the Xuan level. Even when mentioning these characteristics it wouldn’t be enough for the crowd to be interested. In Celestial River, we always have some antiquities which have missing parts. We are honest about it. However, it would still be classed as ling level of higher quality, besides, it can also be used to defend from attacks.”
Perhaps there were some cultivators who could concoct pills who would be interested.
“The price is one thousand purity stones of medium quality.” said Lan Jiao. Immediately after, people in the crowd shook their heads, one thousand for a broken cauldron was too expensive and unworthy.
When Lan Jiao saw that the crowd was shaking their heads, she smiled wryly. She knew that that selling that precious cauldron wouldn’t be easy, it was difficult to get a good price for it, but it was really a priceless treasure.
“I will buy it for a thousand purity stones of medium quality.” said someone at that moment. That person was an old man, he could obviously concoct pills. Even though that cauldron was of no use, the old man was still interested in these kinds of mysterious treasures.
Besides, as far as he was concerned, one thousand purity stones of medium quality wasn’t a big sum.
“Since the old man said so, just give it to him.” somebody said in a low voice, but people really despised that cauldron. People didn’t fight for it because it wasn’t an attractive object.
