Chapter 96: Immortal Gu Trade
Qin Bai Sheng stood on the stage and took out several mortal Gu, passing them around the hall.
A few Gu Immortals received these mortal Gu, showing doubt on their faces.
Qin Bai Sheng spoke slowly: "The auction of Immortal Gu is extremely important. The ones that are auctioned first have a greater advantage, they can be exchanged for more varieties of Immortal Gu. Thus, for fairness, this auction will not go according to the listed order, I have specially prepared these mortal Gu, once you activate them, they will point to one of the Immortal Gu up for auction.
As for which one, it is completely random, nobody can manipulate them, go ahead and inspect these mortal Gu."
These words attracted quite a pleased response.
These mortal Gu were inspected by the Gu Immortals and were sent to the secret rooms.
Soon, it was Fang Yuan's turn, he personally inspected them and discovered nothing wrong with them.
After the Gu Immortals in the secret rooms inspected the Gu, the mortal Gu went to the single rooms again. The rank eight Gu Immortals were almost all in single rooms. After inspecting, the mortal Gu were passed back to Qin Bai Sheng.
Qin Bai Sheng did not continue the auction, he asked: "Is there anyone else who is still uncertain, would you like to go ahead and inspect it again?"
As expected, there were Gu Immortals who said that they needed to inspect it again.
Among them, some had already inspected the Gu before.
This set of mortal Gu had no problems earlier, but it was passed around. What if someone did something to them while they were passed around?
After inspecting it again, they found nothing wrong. At this point, the true purpose of this auction was about to begin.
Qin Bai Sheng activated this set of mortal Gu in front of everyone, they shined in a bright light as smoke rose, the smoke gathered in the air and formed into the two words 'conceal luck'.
"It has been chosen, the first Immortal Gu is conceal luck Immortal Gu." Qin Bai Sheng shouted.
"Conceal luck Immortal Gu was originally numbered at the end of the auction, to think that it became the first now." Tai Bai Yun Sheng grabbed the east window Gu as he muttered after checking.
On the stage, the screen was changing as it turned into the appearance of the conceal luck Immortal Gu.
Qin Bai Sheng introduced when the time was right: "As everyone can see, this Gu looks like a white skinned beetle, it is half the size of a palm and is a rank six luck path Immortal Gu, it can conceal one's own luck. The seller wants a metal path defensive Immortal Gu. Whoever has a metal path defensive Immortal Gu can bid for it. There is no lower limit for this."
"This conceal luck Immortal Gu is rank six, it can defend from rank six luck inspection Gu. Although the effect is good, its use is too narrow."
In the main hall, Gu Immortals were discussing softly, but no one bid for it.
"Damn it…" The person who had conceal luck Immortal Gu was a female Gu Immortal, she sat in a single room as she bit her lips, she helplessly watched her conceal luck Immortal Gu go without bidding, nobody wanted it.
The first Immortal Gu was not successfully sold, this was out of everyone's expectations, Qin Bai Sheng's face was a little dark as he used the mortal Gu in his hands to start the bidding for the second item.
The image changed, and showed a cicada-like Immortal Gu.
"This is heavenly gong Immortal Gu, a sound path rank six Immortal Gu, to be traded with a transformation path related Immortal Gu." Qin Bai Sheng said.
In the main hall, a Gu Immortal saw this Gu and flew into a rage, shouting: "Heavenly gong Immortal Gu! Hmph, this Gu was mine, but He Lang Zi snatched it. He Lang Zi, come out now!"
"I'll come out, do you think I'm afraid of you?" From a secret room, He Lang Zi walked out with a ruthless smile.
He Lang Zi crossed his arms as he walked towards the main hall, sitting in front of the shouting Gu Immortal.
The Gu Immortals around him quickly moved away, choosing other seats.
"You, you!" The shouting Gu Immortal pointed at He Lang Zi as his face turned red, he was trembling from anger.
"Me what?" He Lang Zi licked his lips, he had a cruel and mocking gaze: "Old man Xiong Yuan, you are a sound path Gu Immortal, if you do not bid now, when will you?"
"Transformation path Immortal Gu, I have one here, it is called demon ferret skin. After using it, one's skin can turn into the skin of the heart demon ferret." Unfettered Scholar's voice came from a single room.
"Demon ferret skin… if one can gather demon ferret bone, demon ferret blood, and other related Immortal Gu, one can unleash the immortal killer move, heart demon ferret transformation." He Lang Zi's gaze shined as he thought.
Thus, He Lang Zi slightly shook his head, not speaking.
Qin Bai Sheng had been observing silently, he said: "Any other Gu Immortals want to bid?"
"I have a moon demon bat claw Immortal Gu, it can transform your hands into the bat claws of a moon demon bat." Feng Jiu Ge said loudly.
He Lang Zi did not speak, he shook his head.
Qin Bai Sheng obtained a transmission, afterwards he said: "The Gu Immortal in the first secret room has bid a grand smoke sea turtle shell Immortal Gu, together with verified information regarding Ascending Heaven Plain."
"Ascending Heaven Plain, what is that?" He Lang Zi asked.
"Hmph, a frog in a well!" Gu Immortal Xiong Yuan laughed as he refused to give up any chance of mocking He Lang Zi.
"Ascending Heaven Plain is a place, anyone who passes it, even if it is a mortal, can enter the immemorial nine heavens. In the legends, Northern Dark Ice Soul, who was able to enter black heaven, went through Ascending Heaven Plain to reach it." Qin Bai Sheng explained patiently.
"So that's it." He Lang Zi was moved.
"My battle strength is enough to break through the heavenly wind qi wall, but I cannot fly. If I can get the information regarding the Ascending Heaven Plain…" He Lang Zi was increasingly moved.
As he thought about it, two more Gu Immortals took out their transformation path Immortal Gu and entered the bidding.
Eventually, He Lang Zi chose the offer of the first secret room, obtaining grand smoke sea turtle shell Immortal Gu, as well as a large group of water wolves.
The two sides made the transaction in public. Because the Gu Immortal in the secret room could not show up, Qin Bai Sheng was the middleman for this.
After He Lang Zi got the intelligence about Ascending Heaven Plain, he looked at it in anticipation, but when he saw it, he stared with furious eyes as he started to shout in anger.
"Why, is there an issue with the Ascending Heaven Plain information?" Qin Bai Sheng's expression changed as he asked.
"No." He Lang Zi's expression turned grim, he refused to speak, but it looked like he had suffered a huge loss.
"That batch of water wolves?" He asked.
"It is already in the blessed land." Qin Bai Sheng said.
"Bring me there." He Lang Zi said stiffly.
Qin Bai Sheng waved his hand and teleported He Lang Zi away. After the latter checked the goods and found no mistake, he collected the wolves and left the auction in advance, without returning to the auction hall.
Qin Bai Sheng announced clearly: "Immortal Gu Rising Azure Cloud, rank six cloud path, specialized in ascending and descending in the air, the seller wants a strength path Immortal Gu. Anyone interested can start bidding!"
"This is the star desolate hound strength Gu, it can grant you the strength of a star desolate hound!"
"I have the iron crown eagle strength Gu, I'll throw in another one hundred and fifty kilograms of great lake soil."
"A qi grand lion strength Gu, and five drops of rule eye blood!"
A total of five Gu Immortals bid for rising azure cloud Immortal Gu. After a few rounds, two Gu Immortals backed out, not long after, the third stopped. Only two were left.
But before they decided on the victor, Fang Yuan had sent a message to Qin Bai Sheng: "Enough, I'll choose the third person. the one with iron crown eagle strength Gu."
A moment later, Fang Yuan and that Gu Immortal completed the transaction, the latter obtained the rising azure cloud Immortal Gu, while Fang Yuan obtained the iron crown eagle strength Gu, as well as a batch of immortal materials that were listed on Lang Ya land spirit's list.
After Rising Azure Cloud was the fourth auction item, it was a fire path Immortal Gu.
Once this Gu appeared, a small surge erupted in the auction, even the rank eight Gu Immortal, Five Elements Grandmaster, joined the bidding.
But in the end, Five Elements Grandmaster returned empty handed.
The seller did not choose him, even though he was the eventual winner of the bidding.
The fifth and sixth items were both metal path Immortal Gu.
The auction hall became much more heated now, metal, wood, water, fire, earth, these were the five most mainstream paths, they were even more popular than cloud path and sound path. Strength path and qi path were much less so.
Eventually, Five Elements Grandmaster obtained one of the metal path Gu worms, the last one was won by Qin Bai Sheng. Not only was he the organizer of the auction, he was also a participant.
As time passed, Immortal Gu after Immortal Gu were bought and sold.
"Next is the twenty-third auction item, Worldly Wave Trace, this Gu is rank six and is used for movement…" Qin Bai Sheng was still introducing it when two Gu Immortals already began staring with shining eyes.
"Finally! Worldly Wave Trace, one of the core Immortal Gu of Water Pavilion. I have to get it no matter what!" Feng Jiu Ge clenched his fists.
Meanwhile, in the first secret room.
"Worldly Wave Trace, very good, I did not waste my efforts after all. I already have the relevant Immortal Gu recipe in my hands, once I get it, I have a high chance of refining worldly horizon Immortal Gu.
World horizon Immortal Gu can allow me to enter the immemorial nine heavens freely, it can reduce the cost of breaking through the heavenly wind qi wall." The Gu Immortal from Eastern Sea was already excited and in anticipation.
"I have a star desolate hound strength Gu."
"A peach wolf strength Gu."
"A wailing whale strength Gu."
The Gu Immortals bid rapidly.
Feng Jiu Ge waited patiently, seeing that the rank six Gu Immortals in the main hall were bidding, he could not help but smile. Using Swordmaster You Lan's voice, he said: "I have a strength path Immortal Gu here, called Pulling Mountain. It will allow your strength to pull up a mountain, I will also add in a hundred and fifty kilograms of heaven metal."
"Heaven metal? Incredible, this is an immortal material that is on par with the rule eye blood. It is only produced in the immemorial nine heavens."
"A hundred and fifty kilograms from the start, this is much more than five drops of rule eye blood, did I hear wrongly?"
There was a commotion in the main hall.
In the first secret room, Eastern Sea Gu Immortal snorted unhappily, using his mortal Gu to bid again.
A strength path Immortal Gu, Overturn River, as well as two hundred and fifty kilograms of crack divine water!
"Is he crazy, two hundred and fifty kilograms of crack divine water? This is possible supplementary material for rank seven Immortal Gu."
"Crack divine water is on par with heaven metal, it can only be extracted from the deepest part of a great lake, in a hundred years, there might only be about ten to fifteen kilograms.
"Oh?" Feng Jiu Ge was slightly shocked, he did not expect such a fierce competitor to appear.
He gave an arrogant laugh, using Swordmaster You Lan's identity, he had less reservations, he said: "Whatever the seller needs, be it materials, Gu recipes, beast groups or variant human slaves, just tell me."
"It seems that Prince Feng Xian wants this Immortal Gu." Even that Eastern Sea Gu Immortal could not help but guess.
But he quickly laughed, his fighting spirit had been triggered: "Prince Feng Xian is rank eight, but am I not rank eight too?"
Soon after, in the auction hall, his voice could be heard: "My request is the same as Fairy You Lan's. Can the seller give us an indication?"
Fang Yuan directly took out Lang Ya land spirit's list, after multiplying the base amounts on it by several times, he handed it to Qin Bai Sheng.
Qin Bai Sheng received it and showed a strange expression, before displaying it to everyone.
The hall went into a third uproar.
"Isn't this list of items way too absurd?"
"Three thousand kilograms of heaven metal and crack divine water, who is this seller, does he think these materials are grass growing on the ground?"
"This is an exorbitant amount, he is really asking for an absurd price!"
At once, even Feng Jiu Ge and the Eastern Sea Gu Immortal were stunned.
