Lu Ping didn't expect that this flying cart magic weapon was actually one of the symbolic magic weapons of the low-ranked elite disciples of the Xuan Spirit Sect. It was hotly talked about by the crowd just after it appeared at the auction and caused endless different malicious speculation about the Xuan Spirit Sect. "Someone probably killed the disciple of the Xuan Spirit Sect and took his magic weapons." "I think so. Some time ago, the Xuan Spirit Sect falsely accused the disciples of our True Spirit Sect of colluding with the demon race to kill five of their disciples. One of those disciples seemed to be an elite disciple of a powerful family. This person probably got this magic weapon from him." "So the Xuan Spirit Sect was right, and our sect indeed colluded with the demon race? No, no, I think it might be a desperado who killed the disciple of the Xuan Spirit Sect and came here to take refuge." "Anyway, it's a good thing that this flying cart can be auctioned. We should take it back and show it off," at this time, the cultivator in the No.12 private room spoke. "I'm afraid the cultivator who sells this item will be in trouble. The Xuan Spirit Sect will soon know about this and come to investigate," this time, it was Yu Qiulan in the No.8 private room who spoke. "It depends on whether Treasure Attic can really keep the sellers' information confidential," Bai Changchun in the No.4 private room cut in. "Treasure Attic has a good reputation and can be trusted," Shi Lingling also spoke in the No. 10 private room. "Yes, yes, that's right," the others quickly agreed. Director Pang coughed, stopped the discussion, and said with a smile, "You don't need to test us. Our Treasure Attic attaches importance to our reputation. We will never disclose the information of the sellers." "Let's continue the auction. Well, this medium-sized flying cart magic weapon can carry nine people at most and has medium flight speed and a good defensive capability. It is luxuriously decorated inside, with all kinds of facilities, and is a piece of necessary equipment for cultivators going out on long trips." "The starting price is 500 spiritual stones, and the offer price shall go up by no less than 20 spiritual stones each time." Lu Ping was startled at the beginning, especially when someone thought of the war on the reef island. They almost discovered the truth. However, many disciples of the True Spirit Sect suddenly began to defend the seller of this magic weapon. Even Bai Changchun and Yu Qiulan, who were at odds, spoke for the seller together. In the end, they deliberately forced Director Pang to make a promise on behalf of Treasure Attic, which made Lu Ping have a deeper understanding of the cohesion of the True Spirit Sect. Many well-off disciples of the True Spirit Sect were bidding for this magic weapon. It was a decent thing for the disciples of the True Spirit Sect to go for a ride with the magic weapon of the low-ranked elite disciples of the True Spirit Sect. The price rose all the way to more than 700 spiritual stones. To be honest, Lu Ping was surprised. Lu Ping had seen Immortal Senior Du's large-sized magic weapon before, which could carry dozens of people. Therefore, he thought that this magic weapon was just a little more expensive than ordinary fleeing magic weapons. Unexpectedly, Treasure Attic directly fixed a price of a high-grade magic weapon for it. At the end of the bidding, only Yu Qiulan and the cultivator in the No.3 private room were still competing for it. The cultivator in the No.3 offered 800 spiritual stones. Yu Qiulan lost his temper and scolded, "Tell me. Who is there messing with me?" "Mr. Yu, what a swagger in your tone! Is this auction held by your family?" The cultivator in the No. 3 private room was not a pushover and raised his voice to talk back. "I was wondering who was so arrogant? It turns to be Zhao Liang of the Zhao family. I heard that your eldest sister is going to marry a member of the Qiao family of the Xuan Spirit Sect. So, you are going to buy this and give it to your new master as a gift?" Yu Qiulan tried his best to be sarcastic, "But I'll offer 850 spiritual stones." "Humph," Zhao Liang knew that he had been despised by the disciples of other families because of his sister's matter. His future brother-in-law's brother was killed by a supernatural beast when he was cultivating outside. His brother-in-law's family had always suspected that there was a conspiracy behind this matter. It happened that his brother-in-law's brother had a Cloud Flying Cart, so Zhao Liang wanted to buy it and give it to his brother-in-law to see if it was his brother's magic weapon. Zhao Liang didn't want to be enraged by them. Since he had been recognized, he knew that he couldn't get this magic weapon. Otherwise, the members of the aristocratic families in the private rooms would unite to bid against him for this magic weapon. At that time, he would make more enemies. But he wouldn't let Yu Qiulan get it easily, "I'll bid 900 spiritual stones. Yu Qiulan, if you bid 1,000 spiritual stones. I will stop bidding against you." In fact, when Yu Qiulan bid 800 spiritual stones, Zhao Liang planned to give up. His family was not a big aristocratic family in the True Spirit Sect. He didn't have as many spiritual stones as other disciples. This was also one of the reasons why his family united the Xuan Spirit Sect by marriage. Moreover, he had spent a lot of spiritual stones in the earlier auction, and he needed to keep the rest spiritual stones to see if he would buy the last items, so he stopped bidding for the flying cart. Yu Qiulan said with a strange smile, "Zhao Liang, your prodding trick is too clumsy, but I don't lack 1,000 spiritual stones. I'll get the flying cart anyway." Lu Ping was surprised by this result. 1,000 spiritual stones were a good income. At the same time, he also saw clearly the power of these aristocratic families. He needed to be careful with Zhao Liang's family. Next, it was a batch of elixirs for cultivators at the late stage of Blood Refining, such as tough blood elixirs, stabbing blood elixirs, and other elixirs that were more effective than fine blood elixirs. There were also thick blood elixirs and muddy blood elixirs that Lu Ping was familiar with. Although Lu Ping didn't lack elixirs for his cultivation recently, the more muddy blood elixirs, the better. However, there was a limited number of muddy blood elixirs and the competition was fierce. Lu Ping managed to get three bottles of them with nearly 750 spiritual stones which was already a high price. He had no choice because the supply of muddy blood elixirs was not adequate to the demand. With no choice, Lu Ping had to buy six bottles of thick blood elixirs as backup elixirs with 960 spiritual stones. There were various other elixirs, such as healing elixirs, detoxification elixirs, poison elixirs, body fixing elixirs, spirit-sealing elixirs, zombie elixirs, invisibility elixirs, and so on. Each kind of them has its own functions, which was quite an eye-opener to Lu Ping. Lu Ping also bought some elixirs of different kinds according to his own needs with nearly 1,000 spiritual stones, which made him more yearning for being an alchemist. In the twinkling of an eye, another six hours passed, and the auction was finally coming to the end. Director Pang was still in high spirits without any fatigue. He stood on the stage and said loudly, "Ladies and gentlemen, it's time for our last items. Our Treasure Attic prepared five of them for you. You've known one of them, the blood dissolving elixir. Guess what's the second one?" Director Pang kept all these cultivators in suspense and asked people to slowly take the item to the stage with a tray, which made more people curious. Director Pang looked at the curious eyes of everyone under the stage, smiled, and suddenly lifted the red silk on the tray. An exquisite belt with animal prints was displayed on it. On the buckle of the belt, there was a carefully carved picture of green flood dragons playing in the water, and the belt on the buckle's both sides was covered with images of various rare birds and animals. The whole belt was radiant, and various patterns on it were lifelike as if they had come alive. "Is this..."
