Chapter 72 The Second Group Mission
None of the cultivators present noticed Wang Ping's spiritual scan.
After all, the gap between the Lingyuan Realm and the Linghai Realm is too big, and only when one reaches the Linghai Realm can spiritual consciousness appear.
Next, Wang Ping withdrew his spiritual consciousness and waited for the auction to begin.
Soon, the auction began.
Although the items auctioned at the beginning were precious, they were only precious compared to those of the innate realm cultivators.
However, items like these are enough to heat up the auction atmosphere.
After all, although the Xiantian realm is too weak for Wang Ping now, he is actually considered a strong man when looking at the entire Daxia.
For those in the Xiantian realm, precious items are no longer considered ordinary items.
Wang Ping watched quietly, waiting for the red orb to appear.
At his level, only things that are more valuable than spiritual weapons or fifth-grade elixirs can attract his attention. Even quasi-spiritual weapons are just ordinary items to him.
"The next item to be auctioned is a red gem. This red gem was accidentally obtained by a Xiantian Realm expert. He found that its material was extremely tough and could not leave any scratches on it even if he used all his strength. For this reason, we specially invited a treasure appraisal master and a Lingyuan Realm expert to conduct research. They found that even a Lingyuan Realm expert could not leave the slightest scratch on it."
The auctioneer spoke in a seductive tone.
"Therefore, we suspect that the origin of this red gem is not simple, and it is likely to be a spiritual weapon."
"Haha, spiritual weapon? Do you think we are stupid? Who would put a spiritual weapon up for auction?"
"It's just a hard bead. Although it's somewhat special, it can only be used to refine weapons at most. With the level of Daxia's weapon refiners, it's already a rare thing to be able to refine a quasi-spiritual weapon. As for a spiritual weapon, just dream on."
"Tsk, tsk, tsk, you're saying so much, aren't you just trying to raise the price? Please don't treat us like fools."
"That's right."
As soon as the female auctioneer finished her words, the scene became noisy, and some powerful monks sneered at this.
This made the female auctioneer a little embarrassed.
However, she was the exclusive auctioneer of Daxia's largest auction after all. She adjusted her mood in an instant, smiled charmingly, and said, "Everything I said is true. This bead is indeed not simple. Therefore, the starting price is 5,000 low-grade spirit stones, and each bid increase must not be less than 100 low-grade spirit stones."
"If it can't leave a scar on a strong man in the Spiritual Origin Realm, then it is indeed precious. But if it is just hard, it can't be used as a weapon. Moreover, it is so small that it can't even be used to make a flying knife."
"This thing is only of collection value. However, who would spend 5,000 low-grade spirit stones to collect this thing? 5,000 low-grade spirit stones is not a small amount for a strong person in the Spiritual Origin Realm."
The monks present were all discussing the matter.
Wang Ping glanced at everyone, smiled slightly, and said, "Five thousand low-grade spirit stones."
When Wang Ping spoke, the monks at the scene were a little surprised and recognized that the private room was the one where Wang Ping was.
After all, Wang Ping's participation in the auction was never concealed.
They didn't expect that Wang Ping would spend five thousand low-grade spirit stones to buy this thing.
For a moment, many people had thoughts like "Could it be possible that Wang Ping saw the extraordinary aspect of this thing?"
But, in the end, they abandoned the idea.
For an alchemist, five thousand low-grade spirit stones are nothing. If Wang Ping has a hobby of collecting rare treasures, it is normal to spend five thousand low-grade spirit stones.
"Five thousand low-grade spirit stones for one time."
"Five thousand low-grade spirit stones twice."
"Five thousand low-grade spirit stones three times."
"Congratulations to Mr. Wang in Room 1 for successfully bidding for the red orb."
Seeing that no one was bidding, the female auctioneer felt helpless and had to make the final decision.
Next, new items were put up and a new round of scramble began.
After Wang Ping successfully took the red orb, he nodded with satisfaction.
However, he did not leave, but continued to watch the auction, wanting to see if he could pick up some bargains.
After all, in the life simulation, he had only reached the great perfection of the Lingyuan realm and had not yet developed spiritual consciousness, so he might have missed some treasures.
Unfortunately, Wang Ping was overthinking it. The possibility of finding some rare treasures at an auction in the Black Turtle Continent was too low.
Until the end, Wang Ping gained nothing.
The last item in the auction, the Lingyuan Pill refined by Wang Ping, was also scrambled for by many Lingyuan realm masters. It was sold for 50,000 low-grade spirit stones and was won by a cultivator at the ninth level of the Lingyuan realm.
However, with his level of cultivation, Lingyuan Pills are useless to him and should be prepared for his disciples or descendants.
…
As the auction came to an end, people left the venue in an orderly manner, and Wang Ping's items and the spirit stones obtained from the auction of Lingyuan Dan were respectfully presented by the woman in brocade clothes who was waiting outside.
In response, after Wang Ping took the items, he left the auction directly and went to the Black Wind Forest.
Deep in the Black Wind Forest, when Wang Ping returned here, the people of Chi Village showed joy and welcomed Wang Ping back.
"Village chief, this is the Red Flame Skill of your Red Clan."
Wang Ping handed the copied Chiyan Gong to the village chief and said with a smile.
The Red Flame Art was originally the martial art of the Red Clan. Since he had already obtained the complete Red Flame Art, it was only right for him to copy a copy for Chicun.
"Red Flame Technique, is it complete now?"
The village chief took over the Red Flame Technique and seemed a little dazed.
The Red Flame Art had been lost for many years, and he thought it would never see the light of day again. However, he did not expect that Wang Ping had collected the upper and middle volumes not long after he went out. It was really amazing.
"It seems that the Red Flame Technique is meant for you. Or, in other words, you are a person with great luck."
The village chief looked at Wang Ping and exclaimed.
"Haha." Wang Ping chuckled and didn't say much.
Things like fate and good fortune are all false.
Without the life simulator, there was no way he could have gathered all the Red Flame Techniques.
Even with a life simulator, it took too much time to barely collect them all.
However, there are some things that you just need to know in your heart and there is no need to say more.
"Village chief, the Chiyan Gong contains the secret technique of awakening the spiritual body of your Chi clan. You can let Chi Feng try it."
Wang Ping reminded after hesitating for a moment.
"I know." The village chief nodded, with some anticipation.
Of course, he also knew that there was a high probability of failure.
After all, there has always been a vague saying circulating among their Chi clan.
The so-called blood curse is not that simple.
The origin of their Chi tribe is not that of a spiritual tribe.
However, this rumor is too old, and they themselves don’t know whether it was exaggerated by their ancestors or whether it is true.
…
For the next three months, Wang Ping practiced in Chi Village. He would tease the Fire-Patterned Demon Tiger from time to time, ride him to hunt, and search for some precious medicines in the deepest part of the Black Wind Forest in preparation for future alchemy.
As for the red gem, now that he knew its function, Wang Ping had no intention of using the ancient jade to extract the essence and blood from it.
This thing might be of some great use. Since he has already reached the Spirit Sea Realm, it would be a waste to use his essence and blood to practice.
It should be said that one can practice and improve one's cultivation, but this must be done in a life simulator.
If he uses it in real life, it will be gone in the life simulator, which is really a loss.
"Still not working?"
Wang Ping shook his head, not surprised, when he noticed that Chi Feng was practicing the Red Flame Technique very smoothly, but his spirit body was still not visible.
The blood curse of the Chi clan is too terrifying, and the cultivation level of the strong man who cast the curse is likely to have exceeded the extraordinary realm.
It is wishful thinking to think that you can break the curse with just a local top-grade skill.
If it were that simple, the Chi clan wouldn't have fallen from the altar and become so desolate.
Then, Wang Ping stopped paying attention to Chi Feng's affairs and opened the chat group.
During this period, Wang Ping had been busy practicing, trying to control his own strength, and searching for precious medicines in the deepest part of the Black Wind Forest, so he did not often visit the chat group. At most, he would occasionally take a look and check the chat content to prevent missing any important information.
Therefore, he still knew some of the situations in the group.
For example, among the three newcomers, Ye Xiaofan successfully joined the Immortal Sect. The world he lives in is also a world of immortal cultivation.
The immortal gate he belongs to is called Bingyun Dongtian. It is one of the top ten immortal gates in a country and is ruled by a Jindan-stage cultivator.
When they learned that Ye Xiaofan was actually a holy body, they were overjoyed and directly trained him as their future successor. They hoped that Ye Xiaofan would be able to lead Bingyun Cave Heaven to become a holy place and attract all nations to pay tribute.
I have to say that Ye Xiaofan is really lucky. The attribute of his awakened holy body is also of ice attribute, which is just right for Bingyun Cave.
Otherwise, even if Bingyun Dongtian knew that Ye Xiaofan was a holy body, it would not know how to cultivate him and would only waste his potential.
As for Qin Tian, this guy has better luck than Ye Xiaofan.
Although this guy never said what his golden finger was, the fact that he was accepted as a disciple by a big shot in the holy land showed that his golden finger was definitely not simple.
At the same time, this guy also found out some information about the Lei Yu Holy Land where he was.
His master was a great cultivator in the late Nascent Soul stage and an inner sect elder of the Lei Yu Holy Land.
On the surface of Lei Yu Holy Land, there is an old monster in the God Transformation Stage.
Well...on the surface...
It is hard to imagine that there is some old monster behind the scenes.
In addition, it is rumored that an immortal was born in Leiyu Holy Land and ascended to the fairyland.
It can be said that the force he belongs to is absolutely powerful.
In terms of background, Qin Tian is invincible in the group.
As for Wang Shuqi, this newcomer was the most miserable one among the three surviving newcomers. The place he crossed over to was a desolate wilderness. If he had not prepared food before crossing, and the golden finger he drew was very powerful in improving defense, he would have become food .
Now, about a month has passed, and he still hasn't been able to leave the forest.
However, it can also be seen from this that the world he traveled through should not be a dangerous supernatural world, otherwise he would have died long ago.
Of course, this is also the current speculation of the group members. He can only make a judgment on the specific situation after he comes into contact with the intelligent life in this world.
In addition, the old members in the group all had experiences, but except for Chen Yao who was almost killed by a demon and Zhang Jun who was almost skinned alive by a mutant zombie, the rest were relatively safe.
…
When Wang Ping just opened the chat group, a system prompt sound suddenly rang, leaving Wang Ping stunned .
"Ding, we have detected something strange in the world where group member Chen Yao is. Group task is released: Eliminate the strangeness. This group task is a mandatory task with 5 participants. Please ask the acting group leader to quickly select five group members to perform the group task. If you do not make a selection within ten minutes, the system will randomly select five group members to participate in this group task and teleport them to the world where group member Chen Yao is."
"Another group mission..."
Wang Ping's expression became serious.
The chat group has been silent for three months, and finally group tasks have appeared again.
This time interval is still a bit short.
Besides that, is it to eliminate weirdness?
Could it be that the purpose of the chat group allowing them to travel through time is really to allow them to eliminate these weird things that appear in different worlds?
As various thoughts flashed through Wang Ping's mind, the chat group was already in an uproar.
Cai Yonglong (1): "Oh my god! Another group task. It's only been a little over three months and there's another group task. I'm so confused."
Wu Jun (20): “The time is… too tight. I’m a little panicked.”
Fang Yun (3): "Ah, it seems the chat group is more dangerous than we thought. However, there are only five people participating in the mission this time... and they can be selected, which is a good thing. If it is like last time where everyone is forced to participate, it would really make my scalp tingle."
Zhang Hu (5): "The acting group leader... is that Brother Wang's choice? Brother Wang, I want to participate in the group mission. Please let me participate in the mission."
Zhang Jun (70): "Are you so positive this time...? Are you not afraid of death?"
Zhang Hu (5): "I'm afraid of death. But, there's nothing I can do. If I don't get stronger quickly, the chances of dying will only increase. This time I got some magic scrolls from my mentor, which should be able to save my life."
Cai Yonglong (1): "That makes sense. I'll join in, too. After three months of training, and with some luck, I've finally managed to break through to the Spiritual Origin Realm. If I can help out in the missions and earn more points, I can get 100,000 points or 1 million group points sooner, so I can buy a resurrection charm or optimize my cheat code."
Ye Xiaofan (75): "Group missions, they are really exciting. I wonder how powerful my holy body will be after being optimized. However, considering that I have just started my cultivation and my cultivation level is only at the Qi Refining Stage, I'd better take it easy. I hope Brother Wang doesn't choose me."
Qin Tian (77): "Ahem, I am the same as Ye Xiaofan. Although I have a promising future, I am still a future warrior after all, and I am not suitable for group missions. I will not feel confident if I don't break through to the foundation-building stage."
Ye Xiaofan (75): “That’s right, at least he must be at the Foundation Establishment stage.”
To be honest, Ye Xiaofan and Qin Tian were really a little panicked.
With such a good start, they don't want to take the risk of participating in group missions. It's not worth it for those few group points.
They have such a good training environment, and the best thing for them is to just stay put and grow.
Wang Ping (66): “Tsk tsk tsk, haven’t you two been quite cocky lately? You’ve been showing off in the group many times.”
Fang Yun (3): "Hehe, these two guys are finally scared. During this period of time, I was almost injured by their aggressive aura."
Liu Mei (15): “…”
Ye Xiaofan (75): "I was trembling with fear and I dared not pretend anymore."
Qin Tian (77): "Boss, please let me go."
The two of them didn't dare to get angry at Wang Ping's teasing.
They also didn't expect that the candidates for the group mission would be selected by Wang Ping.
Now, no matter who they offended, they would not dare to offend Wang Ping.
If Wang Ping assigned them to participate in the mission, it would be really dangerous.
If Wang Ping causes any trouble during the group mission, then it will really be GG.
They don't want to die before they grow up.
