Long Tian knew in his heart that the other person should be the person Gushan mentioned to receive him, so he flew over and said with a smile: "I am Long Tian."
"My junior name is Tao Liang. I received the order from the palace master and came to greet senior Long Tian." The man said respectfully. Seeing his rugged face, broad shoulders and narrow waist, and his extraordinary heroic appearance, Long Tian couldn't help but praise: "Your Excellency is so heroic and heroic, and you are worthy of being a subordinate of the Lord of the Ancient Mountain Palace."
Hearing this, Tao Liang smiled sheepishly and said: "Senior, thank you for your praise! I have just received the summons from the palace master, and everything in Yushui City must follow your senior's arrangements."
Long Tian smiled and said: "Very good! But I still don't know what the auction is all about. Tao Liang, can you explain it to me?"
Long Tian followed Tao Liang and flew towards Yushui City.
Along the way, Tao Liang introduced the situation of Yushui City Auction Conference to Long Tian in detail.
Yushui City is a city with a particularly strong commercial atmosphere and is known as the "Yushui Mall" among the surrounding major cities. This characteristic is also the reason why the Royal Water City Auction Conference has been held for a long time.
An auction conference is held every hundred years. In addition to auctioning various rare treasures of heaven and earth, there are also many super artifacts for sale. The conference hired two regular VIPs to review and determine the prices of various auction items.
One of these two regular guests is Ge Ruo, the most famous treasure appraiser in Yushui City, and the other is the person in charge of the Shengbao Tower.
"The person in charge of Shengbao Tower?" Long Tian was surprised and thought, isn't that Xia Hou Yuxiu?
Seeing that Long Tian was so surprised, Tao Liang couldn't help but curiously asked: "Does Senior Long Tian know this senior?"
Long Tian smiled lightly and said: "How could I recognize such a master? I just hear people mention it often, so I feel surprised."
He didn¡¯t want to let Gu Shan know that he and Xia Hou Yuxiu were friends right now, otherwise he would cause unnecessary trouble.
Tao Liang did not doubt Long Tian's words and continued: "Although the items auctioned at every auction are rare treasures or super artifacts in the world, it is said that they are not as grand as this one. I heard that this time Not only are strong men from a dozen towns near Yushui City participating, but also many strong men from very far away towns come to participate. The organizer of the auction, the Yushui Chamber of Commerce, is almost exhausted."
Having said this, Tao Liang pointed in front of him and said to Long Tian: "Senior, please look, that is the location of Yushui Chamber of Commerce, which is where every auction meeting is held."
Long Tian looked in the direction of Tao Liang's finger and saw a hemispherical building in the distance emitting a hazy light.
The shape of the building is very strange. It is a completely round hemisphere, and its surface is covered with regular pentagonal or hexagonal patterns. It looks like a huge football cut open from the middle and then buckled on the ground.
The condensed light on the surface of the building is constantly flowing and shining under the blue light. It is obvious at a glance that it is a means of energy restriction in the holy realm. Long Tian asked casually: "When exactly will the auction be held?"
Tao Liang¡¯s attitude was more respectful and he said: ¡°If we follow the original arrangement of Yushui Chamber of Commerce, it should be five days later.¡±
"Oh? So I still have time to go shopping in Yushui City?" Long Tian looked at both sides of the street and smiled lightly: "Just looking at so many shops here, it really deserves to be a commercial capital!"
"Senior Longtian, do you want to visit Yushui City? I can make arrangements immediately!" Tao Liang replied.
Long Tian shook his head and said: "I just want to take a stroll and learn about the customs and customs here. It can also be regarded as preparation for successfully getting that thing at the auction conference. You only need to tell me some places worth visiting. I just don¡¯t need to accompany you.¡±
In fact, Long Tian has his own plan. Since you are participating in the auction conference, you should know yourself and the enemy, and find out who are most likely to compete with you, who may be beneficial to you, as well as the business habits of the location where the auction conference is held, etc. It is precisely because of this that Long Tiantian proposed to visit Yushui City.
Tao Liang didn't understand what the relationship between visiting Yushui City and the auction conference was, and he couldn't ask questions, so he could only say: "Senior, since you have come to Yushui City, there is one place you must visit. That is the weapon refining in the south city of Yushui City. Pavilion.¡±
"Oh?" Long Tian immediately became interested and asked, "Is there anything special there?"
"The Weapon Refining Hall is where the Weapon Refining Masters of Yushuicheng live. Most of these people are masters of Weapon Refining. Generally speaking, all guests who come to Yushui City will visit the Weapon Refining Hall." Tao Liang explained in detail after hearing this. road.
"The Weapon Refining Hall? That's worth a visit."One day, I remembered that I still had many difficulties in refining the weapon and needed expert guidance. At this time, I was very excited and wanted to take a look.
When Long Tian thought of this, he suddenly thought of another question: "To participate in the auction conference, is it only necessary to have a divine crystal, or are there any conditions that must be met?"
Tao Liang said in surprise: "How did senior know that there are special requirements for participating in the auction conference?"
Long Tian smiled slightly and did not answer. In fact, this is purely his guess. Because he has heard that some auctions impose various restrictions on the identity and status of participants.
Just listen to Tao Liang say again: "This is the rule set by the Yushui Chamber of Commerce. Anyone who participates in the auction must provide an item for appraisal by two distinguished guests. Only those who meet the conditions after appraisal can participate. I just don't know the senior Have you prepared any items?¡±
thing? Where are the items for identification?
Long Tian secretly complained that Gu Shan didn't tell him this inexplicable rule in advance, and said with a smile: "Although I don't have any items to participate in the appraisal yet, I will naturally take them out when the time comes."
At first, he wanted to randomly take out an artifact from the storage ring and participate in the auction. Suddenly, he thought about taking this opportunity to verify his weapon refining skills, so he decided to refine an item himself and bring it to the auction conference. Appraisal by two distinguished guests. Anyway, with Xia Hou Yuxiu's relationship with Shengbao Tower, Long Tiantian was not afraid that he would not be able to enter the auction.
Tao Liang saw that Long Tian was confident in what he said, so he stopped asking any more questions.
He handed a black card to the other party and said: "This is the junior's certificate for storing the divine crystal at the Water Royal Chamber of Commerce. The senior can use it to purchase items."
Long Tian was not polite, took the card and put it into the storage ring, then smiled and said: "I'll do everything for you!"
Tao Liang replied: "Senior is too polite, this is a matter for the junior."
"Then I'll go to the weapon refining hall first. Goodbye." After Long Tian finished speaking, he disappeared.
The Refining Hall is located in the south of Yushui City. It is a floating island made up of many flat boats, floating quietly on the water. There are low dams around the floating island to block the sea water, and in the center of the floating island is a tall tower for observation.
Tao Liang is right, this is indeed a place worth seeing.
Not only are there a large number of weapon-refining masters gathered here, but there are also a lot of merchants going back and forth here, looking for artifacts that they are satisfied with.
As soon as Long Tian appeared in the sky above the weapon refining hall, someone immediately came to greet him. That was a man dressed as a weapon refiner apprentice, but he was only at the first level of the Ten Thousand Gods. These low-level weapon-refining apprentices are like shopkeepers in a restaurant. They also promote business for the weapon-refining hall.
The weapon-refining apprentice flew to Long Tian and saluted respectfully: "Senior, are you here to trade items?"
Long Tian smiled and shook his head: "This is my first time to Yushui City, just for a casual look."
Hearing this, the man immediately said enthusiastically: "Junior Chang Wei is a weapon-making apprentice here. If senior needs anything, just ask."
Long Tian thought it would be nice to have someone as a tour guide, so he smiled and said: "I just want to visit, Chang Wei, if you have time, please introduce the situation here to me.
Under the leadership of Chang Wei, Long Tian traveled through the various refining areas and trading markets of the refining hall.
The Refining Hall is a mixed-use place, but most of the refiners here use refining methods to refine their weapons. People who use the Heart Refining Method to refine weapons are often masters of weapon refining, and their cultivation has reached a certain level. They will not easily sell the things they have refined in this weapon refining hall.
"Senior, please look, that is the workshop of the famous Master Fei Hao in the Artifact Refining Hall." Chang Wei pointed to a silver-white room not far away.
While the two were talking, a tall old man walked out of the room.
"Master Fei Hao!" Chang Wei greeted him and said, "This senior is just here for a casual look."
"Haha, welcome, please come in." Fei Hao smiled and nodded. Under his guidance, Long Tian and Chang Wei walked into Fei Hao's silver-white room.
I saw that the area of ??this house was about 200 square meters. In the southeast of the room, there were several shelves with a lot of magic swords, axes and other artifacts on them. It seemed that they should have been refined by Fei Hao. The finished product was not of high quality. Long Tian took a casual look at it, but he was no longer interested and looked a little disappointed.
His expression was noticed by Chang Wei, who quickly asked: "Senior, is he also a master of weapon refining?"
Long Tian smiled noncommittally and did not speak. When Chang Wei saw this, he immediately understood that he was right. SeeLai Longtian should be a master of weapon refining, and he immediately said respectfully: "I also hope that the seniors can give more guidance to the juniors on the art of weapon refining." Chang Wei is just a low-status weapon refining apprentice, and he has crazy persistence and pursuit of weapon refining. Once you decide that Long Tian is a master of weapon refining, how can you not ask him for advice?
Long Tiansurong said: "The art of weapon refining is vast and profound. In the final analysis, I am only familiar with some of the tips of the Heart Refining Method. I really don't know much about the refining method."
"The method of heart refining?" Chang Wei was shocked when he heard this: "The method of heart refining is the supreme method of refining weapons. Senior knows the method of heart refining, so he should be a great master of refining weapons?"
Long Tian shook his head and said with a smile: "You are wrong. In fact, the heart refining method and the refining method are just methods for refining weapons. You must know that the methods are for people to use, and the heart refining method can also be used to refine weapons. Even if you can make bad things, the refining method will also make useful artifacts."
Chang Wei was shaken and seemed to have an epiphany.
At this time, I heard a clear voice outside the door laughing: "Is Master Fei Hao at home?"
"At home! At home!" Fei Hao said and apologized to Long Tian and Chang Wei: "I'll excuse you for a moment." He turned around and walked out. At this moment, the door curtain opened, and a handsome young man wearing a snow-white silk robe walked in from the door.
The boy¡¯s red lips and white teeth, and his brows and eyes seemed to always have a smile on his face, which made people feel like they were in the spring breeze after seeing him.
After entering the door, the young man smiled slightly and said: "I'm Yang Xi. I came here on the order of my master Ge Ruo to ask Master Fei Hao to return the crystal ball. I wonder if Master Fei Hao has used it up."
Fei Hao chuckled and said, "I ran out of it half a year ago. I was planning to send it to Mr. Ge Ruo in the next few days."
As he spoke, he took out a round transparent crystal from a box and handed it to the young man named Yang Xi. He said, "Please, little brother, thank Mr. Ge Ruo for me. If it weren't for this crystal ball, I really don't know what I would have done." We have to deal with the Waterbending Chamber of Commerce."
Yang Xi said with a smile: "My master and I saw the set of serial armor made by Master Fei Hao at Yushui Chamber of Commerce. It is really exquisite armor that we have never seen before. Everyone is very satisfied with this armor."
As he was talking, he took the crystal ball and suddenly saw Long Tian and Chang Wei standing aside. He quickly apologized: "It turns out that Master Fei Hao has guests here, so I won't disturb you."
Since Chang Wei heard Yang Xi mention Ge Ruo's name, his eyes never left each other. When he heard that Yang Xi was leaving, Fei Hao blurted out before he could speak: "It doesn't matter!" After saying that, he realized that he was a little rude, and said with a little embarrassment: "I heard it a long time ago Mr. Ge Ruo¡¯s name, I really want to ask Brother Yang Xi to introduce him.¡±
Yang Xi looked at Chang Wei and asked with a smile: "This brother seems to be a master of weapon refining?"
"I can't say I'm an expert in refining weapons. I just prefer to refine weapons." Chang Wei said modestly, but he felt a little proud in his heart. Long Tian nodded secretly after hearing this. Practicing out of interest is naturally much better than practicing out of utilitarianism.
Yang Xi smiled and said: "My master often said that as long as you are interested, you will get twice the result with half the effort in anything you do. Brother, please don't be humble. I wonder what you call me? Do you know the method of heart refining in the holy realm?" Woolen cloth?"
When he asked this question, Chang Wei's face immediately turned red. Of course he didn't understand the method of mental refining, but he didn't know how to answer the other party. When he was worried, he suddenly heard Long Tian smile slightly and said: "Master, do you need the method of refining the soul?"
Chang Wei suddenly thought that Long Tian had just said that he knew the method of heart refining, and suddenly felt relieved. He knew that since Long Tian asked Yang Xi, he naturally planned to help him. Although he didn't know how powerful Long Tian's heart refining method was, but after hearing what Long Tian said just now, he shouldn't be a weakling.
When Yang Xi heard Long Tian¡¯s question, he looked at him curiously and said with a smile, ¡°Yes! There is something wrong with something belonging to a friend of my master¡¯s, and it needs to be re-refined using the method of heart refining.¡±
When he saw that Long Tian looked young, he couldn't help but wonder, could this young man know the method of heart refining?
"So that's it" Long Tian muttered: "Maybe I can help the master."
"Really! That's great!" Yang Xi said excitedly: "Senior, please come with me to meet the master!"
Long Tian knew that Ge Ruo was one of the two distinguished guests at this auction. If he could get his support, it would be almost certain that he would get the artifact being auctioned.
"Senior, please come with me!" Yang Xi urged again when he saw that Long Tian didn't respond.
Long Tian nodded and said to Yang Xi: "Please, little brother, lead the way for us."
Ge Ruo¡¯s residence is the location of Yushui Chamber of Commerce.
The three men from Long Tian flew very fast, so they arrived in front of the hemispherical building in a short time.
The guard outside the building recognized Yang Xi, and when he saw that he didn't even ask, he opened the defense layer outside the building. Yang Xi smiled and thanked him, while leading Long Tian and Chang Wei into the building.
The space in the building is huge, and there are intricate corridors everywhere like an ant nest. Doorways are evenly distributed on both sides of the corridor, but it is unknown what is behind the door. At the end of this corridor is a white door. Yang Xi turned around and said respectfully: "Senior, please wait here for a moment while I, the junior, report to the master."
