My Heaven-Defying Spirit

What came into my ears was a crisp sound

"The next item to be auctioned is an extremely rare item, a spirit body! I guess I don't need to explain this item to you any further, right? The starting price is 5,000 spirit stones, and each bid must not be less than 1,000 spirit stones!"

Those two words echoed in Ming Huaishang's mind, causing him a great shock.

"There's actually a spirit auction here?"

Xiaoqing frowned, then she and Ming Huaishang found a place to sit down and looked down.

Sure enough, in the center of the auction stage, a beautiful woman was carefully introducing the items being auctioned.

When Ming Huaishang looked back, as expected, it was an illusory figure with a spiritual body.

“It’s actually a spirit!”

When Ming Huaishang actually saw the items on the auction stage, he was deeply convinced.

"I didn't expect that a spirit would appear in this small Luocheng."

Xiaoqing was a little surprised, but then she shook her head

"The attribute of this spirit is rock. It should be a spirit derived from the mountains and forests, and its strength should only be at the floating sea level."

Xiao Qing seemed to have remembered something important again and said to Ming Huaishang:

"Oh, there is one more very important thing about the spirit body. I forgot to tell you that once a cultivator absorbs the spirit body, his cultivation speed will be greatly increased."

"But in fact, this thing also has its limitations. When the cultivator's own realm exceeds the realm of the spirit itself, the spirit's function will be useless."

"So what you're saying is that spirits aren't that rare?"

Ming Huaishang widened his eyes, somewhat incredulous.

"No, this actually proves how rare spiritual bodies are in the world of cultivation. Do you think spiritual bodies are weeds in the mountains? Can they be seen everywhere?"

"The environment in which spirits need to grow must be extremely harsh. Some spirits take at least a hundred years, or even thousands of years, to grow."

(Introduction to the spirit body: only the energy body has the opportunity to become a spirit body, and the conditions are extremely harsh. The growth conditions are unknown.

"After becoming a spiritual body, one's own cultivation perception will be greatly improved, and the same is true after the cultivators absorb it, so it is sought after by the world")

However, just as Ming Huaishang and Xiaoqing were talking for a while, someone in the field made a bid.

"Six thousand spirit stones!"

"Seven thousand spirit stones!"

"Eight thousand spirit stones!"

..........

The shouting at the Great Wall became more and more intense, and it kept increasing. All of a sudden, the price reached tens of thousands of spirit stones, and there was no sign of stopping.

Some even saw the rising price and wanted to jump down to the stage to grab the spirit.

However, several figures suddenly appeared on the auction stage, which frightened those who wanted to cause trouble.

After feeling it, the strength of those figures is definitely not weaker than that of Fuhai Realm, and there are even a few powerful people in the Shenpo Realm.

"Everyone, please don't do anything that has nothing to do with the auction. If anyone wants to cause trouble, I, the Xuantong Sect, don't mind wiping them out on the spot."

A sharp voice sounded in the field. Ming Huaishang looked carefully and found that it was the fat man he had just seen at the door.

"This Xuantong Gate can auction such valuable items in Luocheng. If it doesn't have some real strength, it really can't continue to operate."

Ming Huaishang smiled faintly, then looked calmly at the scene

Sure enough, after being shocked by the aura of the Xuantong Sect's strong men, those guys who were originally uneasy became much more honest.

Some people wanted to rob because the price was too high, while others wanted to take advantage of the chaos to rob. However, this time they offended someone who was not easy to deal with.

Finally, this rock spirit was bought by an ordinary-looking old man for nearly 20,000 spirit stones.

“I didn’t expect that this fire spirit body would be so expensive!”

While Ming Huaishang was sighing, he was still thinking about how many spirit stones his spirit body in the reincarnation realm could be sold for.

"Kid, forget it. Once the spirit is absorbed into the human body, it cannot be auctioned off."

Xiao Qing seemed to sense what Ming Huaishang was thinking, and attacked without any hesitation.

The items that were auctioned later were dazzling, including spiritual herbs, elixirs, magic tools, rare materials, and everything else. However, the prices were extremely high, and Ming Huaishang could only watch with envy.

The auction lasted for several hours and ended with an extremely rare item.

When Ming Huaishang walked out of the auction, he was still surprised by the last item.

“I didn’t expect that the last item in this auction would be the fragment of the True Phoenix Secret Technique!”

"But the True Phoenix Secret Technique is a bit strange. Why do so many people believe it just based on what that one person said, without even showing the True Phoenix Secret Technique?"

It turned out that in the last auction, the True Phoenix Secret Technique that was auctioned did not reveal its true form. The auctioneer just said that the last item in their auction house was the True Phoenix Secret Technique, and some people rushed forward to bid. This puzzled Ming Huaishang.

"As long as the True Phoenix Secret Technique is brought out, even if it is incomplete, it will cause a sensation. They dare not do so. Besides, there are so many people present, including some powerful ones. If he tells a lie, do you think his reputation as a member of the Xuantong Sect can be preserved?"

Xiao Qing looked at Ming Huaishang with disdain and said speechlessly

As the night fell, the two prepared to return to the inn to rest.

.........

Somewhere in Luocheng, in a dark alley, dozens of figures suddenly appeared on the beams, their eyes all pointed to the depths of the alley.

And there, an old man appeared

On the beams, those people were dressed in black and their faces could not be seen. They all had fierce eyes and held sharp weapons.

“That’s him!”

A man who seemed to be the leader confirmed with the people beside him, then suddenly thrust the sharp weapon forward, stabbed it with deep affection, and then flashed and disappeared into the shadows. The next second, he appeared in front of the old man.

"Go ahead, kill him and take the treasure away!"

Then, dozens of black-clad figures on the beams all rushed towards the old man. In just a moment, the old man was in danger.

However, Old Man Cang just smiled faintly, with a sneer on his lips.

"You think you can kill people and steal treasures? Maybe I haven't made any name for myself in the underworld for a long time, so people have gradually forgotten my existence."

The old man stomped his feet, the ground shattered, his whole body glowed with golden light, and a powerful spiritual power wave condensed in his palms.

Then, he punched out with a fierce and violent sound, which shattered the windows and walls of houses within a hundred miles.

However, Ming Huaishang happened to be in this area at this time. This was the only way to leave the auction house and go to the inn.

At this time, Ming Huaishang was walking leisurely on the roadside with Xiaoqing.

This place is not a commercial area, and there are very few residents. It is an abandoned street. However, as the sound came, Ming Huaishang also noticed something.

"What happened over there? Let's go and take a look."
