C934 Cloud Auction House
After arriving at Floating Cloud City, Ann Sudong realized that it was much bigger than Fiery City, and much more prosperous than Huo Lie City.
He found a shop to stay at. It was near evening, so he sat downstairs. It was already packed with people. Dozens of people were seated there, drinking and chatting.
Since demi-humans could already take human form, their cultivation was not weak. The lowest had Core Formation Period.
Ann Sudong found a place near the window to sit down, and a waiter immediately came over to serve him.
He ordered a few dishes and a jug of wine, and then began to slowly pour and drink by himself.
The best place to inquire was this bustling tavern.
After everyone drank, their favorite topic was the hot topic right now. They could speak whatever they wanted to say without holding back.
It was unlike when he was awake and still had scruples in his heart, which allowed Ann Sudong to gather enough information in the shortest amount of time.
"Have you guys heard? Floating Cloud City's Auction is full of boos this time."
"I heard that too. Many old monsters have come. Floating Cloud City has become very lively all of a sudden."
"No matter how many old monsters there are, it has nothing to do with us."
"That's true. The items in the Cloudsoaring Auction House are not cheap. We don't have that much money to buy them either."
A stocky man heard the surrounding people talking and said in a low voice, "Brother, what you're saying is not right. So what if you have money or not? Such a big auction is not common, but going to have a look is also not bad."
"You're right!"
A tall and skinny man laughed out loud, "Brother, I'm from the Thunder Tiger Clan. May I know who you are?"
"The Proud Eagle."
The stocky man said, "This time, I plan to make a trip to the Cloudrising Auction House. Even if I don't buy anything, I'll go and broaden my horizons."
"Brother, I've heard that Bi Luotian's key is in the auction item. I've heard that Bi Luotian is a treasure left behind by a supreme expert of the Monster race before he dies. He will soon break through to the Deity Stage."
"Not to mention the Deity Stage, it is rumored that when that Supreme Elder forcefully withstood the protection of the Upper Realm and protected our demon race, his cultivation only advanced after reaching the void stage. Not only is there a countless number of Spirit Stone pills in Jade Net, he also has the experience of breaking through the Emptiness Refining Stage, which is why he has attracted the interest of so many old monsters."
Other than this Bi Luo Tian, what I am most interested in is still that dragon bone. That is the bone of a True Dragon from the Ancient Era, and now the dragon race has become a legend. As long as we obtain the dragon bone, refining Top-grade Magical Treasure s would be extremely easy, even refining a Exquisite Magic Treasure would not be impossible. Someone said with a face full of longing.
"Don't even think about it, the auction price for that dragon bone is definitely not lower than the key of Bi Luotian, or at least starting with one hundred thousand. Now that Earth is full of spirit energy, the Spirit Stone that can be stored in the past have been consumed due to the thinning of Earth's spirit energy, how many people in the entire demon race can come up with one hundred thousand?"
"Yeah, I've worked so hard these past few hundred years, but I've only amassed a few thousand Spirit Stone."
"..."
Ann Sudong listened to their conversation, and gathered some information. One of them was that Bi Luo Tian was a Emptiness Refining Stage Cultivator's cave, inside it were the precious resources he left for his descendants, and the other was a genuine dragon bone.
It was rumored that in the mythical era, when Spiritual Realm and devil world waged war against each other, there were some dragons that descended to earth. It was very likely that the great powers died on Earth at that time, and their dragon bones were discovered.
"This is indeed a rare and good material for refining magical equipment." Ann Sudong thought.
They all knew that there were dragons in the Heaven Realm, and that all of the Dragon Kings of the Four Seas were divine dragons. However, they had never heard of any dragon kings perishing, nor did any deity take out any dragon bones to sell, or even give them to him for use.
Ann Sudong was not too interested in Bi Luo Tian's treasure, but he was very interested in the dragon bone. If it really was a dragon bone, then he could use it to raise the quality of Immortal Banishing Sword s.
After hearing everyone's words, Ann Sudong felt that there was nothing else that could catch his attention, so he just stood up and went upstairs.
Ann Sudong had to prepare for it properly. A hundred thousand Top-grade Spirit Stone s were nothing to him, but this dragon bone was being watched by countless people. If he were to bid for it himself, it would definitely attract a lot of attention.
He was well aware of the principle that a man's wealth was his own fault.
Even though he had the ability to do so, it didn't mean that others would just sit by and watch him take the items out.
He was going to disguise himself now and buy a lot of things. He was going to thoroughly change his appearance.
Two days later.
After finishing his preparations, Ann Sudong's face had changed, his figure did not change, but his handsome face had changed into the appearance of a middle-aged uncle.
He put on the black robe and the bamboo hat before heading to the Cloud Auction House.
The Yun Qi Auction House was a place similar to an underground palace. One could not see any clues on the surface, it was just a single building. Those who entered would use their identity verification to go down through the underground passage.
"Sir, may I ask if you are here to auction something or to buy something?"
At the door, a servant came out to receive him.
"I'm going to buy something." Ann Sudong said.
"Do you have a VIP card?"
"Nope."
"Where's the invitation?"
"Nor."
"What about the Yun Qi Auction House members?"
"Ugh …"
Ann Sudong's forehead was filled with black lines from the question. He wondered if he had walked into the wrong place, entered some hair washing shop, and started to trick himself to apply for a series of privilege cards.
"Not even that." Ann Sudong shook his head.
"Then let me ask …"
"This is my first time here, you don't need to ask me."
"Alright then, you can't go in!" The waiter cleanly refused Ann Sudong entry.
"Why?"
"If you want to enter our auction house, other than the ones mentioned above, you have the ability to purchase and not to cause trouble here. After my conversation with you, I discovered that you are just one of the people who are here to cause trouble." the receptionist said bluntly.
"…"
Ann Sudong's forehead was once again filled with black lines. It seemed that this dog eyed person was not only limited to humans.
He felt even more helpless as he took out a grade four medicinal pill from his storage pouch. "I intend to sell this grade four medicinal pill. Can I enter now?"
Grade four medicinal pills were quite rare amongst the demon race.
The demon clan was very different from human cultivators. The demon clan members were not good at concocting pills, so higher Grade Three pills were very rare amongst the demon clan members.
"Sure, I didn't expect you to be an apothecary. I apologize for my rudeness, please come in." The receptionist immediately changed her expression.
Ann Sudong nodded and followed him inside.
After walking for around ten minutes or so, they finally reached the underground. Ann Sudong suddenly saw the light, and he arrived at a huge underground city.0
