Ning Cheng didn’t even notice what Peng Rui Mei said, even though his divine sense didn’t sweep out, he could clearly feel that there were many people in this hall who were far superior to him, a few of them were even no less powerful than the red-haired powerhouse he had met back in the Tai Su Sea.
There were many people in the hall, but there was no noise at all. Even when friends who knew each other spoke to each other, they tried their best to transmit their voices or whisper.
After another half incense stick of time had passed, a middle-aged man dressed as a Confucian scholar walked to the round platform in the middle of the trading hall, clasped his fist and said, “Thank you all for coming to the Daoist Dao Trade Fair held by the Tai Su Hui Mission Merchant Building, our Daoist Daoist Trade Fair is held every three years, in which a large number of treasures are traded, and the Daoist Dao Trade Fair has also created countless strong people.
We hope that all the Daoists sitting here today will leave satisfied and get what they want. This time, the Dao of Evidence Fair will be the same as the old rules, with the merchant building taking one percent of the transaction amount between the two sides of the deal.”
One hundredth of the transaction amount was really not much, and as Ning Cheng who had come from Earth, he naturally knew that the main purpose of this merchant building was not in earning points, but in creating popularity. To enter this trade fair, one had to have a silver medal, and a silver medal would require a large amount of spending points. Even if the merchant building did not extract a single point, the more such fairs were held, the better it would be for the merchant building.
“There are teleportation tables and points trading slots in front of everyone’s seat, I believe that the specific how to trade is clear to all Daoists, so I won’t say any more, the trading order starts from seat number one.” After the middle-aged Confucian finished speaking, he clasped his fist and walked down, sitting on one of the seats.
Ning Cheng had long studied this square table in front of his seat, and there was a modest teleportation table on the square table, which must have been a place to teleport items and divine crystals. There was also an alcove at the edge of the teleportation table, a place where one could put in one’s quest token and then add or subtract points through the array and distant traders. In addition to this, there is an offer screen on which you can quote the price you are offering for the item and what the item you are trading for is.
You could say that this trading platform is considered something very advanced, purely from the point of view of this trading platform. This kind of thing that was controlled through a formation was countless times more advanced than something controlled by the network in the technological world. At least Ning Cheng had not yet seen technology that could control spatial rules come out, if there was technology that controlled spatial rules come out, then there would be no need for logistics.
“The thing I want to trade is a gong method, the Divine Luo Five Cauldrons. Only points or any Law Crystals are needed, nothing else.” A low, mellow voice rang out in the hall.
Ning Cheng saw a golden circle of light up around one of the seats, and the number behind this seat was number one.
Sitting in seat number one was a tall male cultivator, and on the table in front of him was a book made of an unknown material, which was locked by a ban and could not be opened. It should be the gong method he was talking about, the Divine Luo Five Cauldrons.
Ning Cheng looked at the number on his table, it was number six hundred and sixty-four and was grey in colour. He also looked at the cushioned chair behind him, and in his heart, he already understood that when he took out the item for trade, he thought that the cushioned chair behind him would also turn golden.
There were more than a hundred Law Crystals on Ning Cheng, or crystals that contained Spatial Laws. However, he had no interest in this Divine Luo Five Cauldrons, and naturally he would not bid for it.
When Ning Cheng did not bid, there were quite a few bidders. Ning Cheng saw prices constantly refreshing on the big bidding screen, while he saw silver light flashing on quite a few seats in the main hall of the trade fair.
Soon Ning Cheng figured out the pattern, the silver light on the seats flashed and passed because the price bid by the cultivator on that seat was pressed down by a higher price, and a new silver light would appear on the seat with the highest price.
The price changed quickly, and in a short time the number of points for the Divine Luo Five Cauldrons Technique increased to over thirty thousand. It was finally fixed at forty-three thousand points, and after it reached that point, no more bids were placed. The seat with the flashing silver light was number four hundred and eleven, a middle-aged female cultivator, and it looked like forty-three thousand points was the price she had quoted.
Ning Cheng’s heart instantly became active, he was not a fool. This cultivator who took out the Divine Luo Five Cauldrons was clearly a strong person who had succeeded in attaining the Dao, the items taken out by such a person would naturally not be too bad, as could be seen from the competitive scene.
It was surprising that such a good item could be purchased for just over 40,000 points, and it looked like his 1.5 million points was considered a lot of a number.
After the price stopped bouncing, a crisp female cultivator’s voice came out, “The highest bid on the floor is forty-three thousand points for number four hundred and eleven, may I ask number one if he is trading?”
This trade fair was different from an auction, where the highest price was quoted, whether or not to trade also depended on the cultivator who owned the item. If the cultivator who owned the item felt that the price was too low, he could choose not to trade.
“Trade.” After the cultivator who owned the divine Luo Five Cauldrons finished speaking, he placed the divine Luo Five Cauldrons gongfu into the teleportation array, while placing his silver medal on the alcove in front of the table.
As the Divine Luo Five Cauldrons were teleported away, forty-three thousand points were also crossed onto the top of this cultivator’s silver token. Ning Cheng sighed in his heart that this method of transaction was indeed convenient and quick.
The first transaction was completed and the seat that lit up after it was number three, Ning Cheng looked at it and there was no one sitting in seat number two.
Seating number three was seated by a female cultivator with white hair. After her seat lit up, she held up a jade box and said, “What I want to trade is a Dao fruit that contains the Wood Attribute Law, the Flowing Cotton Fruit, for just points.”
There were also various kinds of Dao Fruits, and Dao Fruits with wood attribute laws mainly helped cultivators comprehend wood-based laws. Such laws were of important use to those who comprehended wood-attribute law divine abilities, or to cultivators of pills or cultivators of divine spirit grasses. Of course it is not very effective for Dao enlightenment, and there are very few cultivators who can enlighten the Dao with the attribute Dao fruit, and such cultivators are rare.
There is a fundamental difference between a true Dao fruit of enlightenment and an attribute Dao fruit. The Dao fruit of enlightenment contains not simply a law attribute, but a rule Dao rhythm.
Even if the Flowing Cotton Fruit was an unorthodox Dao fruit, it was still in great demand. As soon as this Flowing Cotton Fruit came out, it was snapped up and quickly purchased away at a high price of 92,000 points. It was evident that as long as it had something to do with a Dao fruit, the price would skyrocket.
This made Ning Cheng’s eyes water, no wonder the Rule Loam was so expensive. A single piece of Rule Soil was estimated to make a Dao Fruit Tree grow a bunch of Dao Fruits, how many points would this sell for?
The items that came out from the seats from number four to more than twenty were all of high value, either top grade materials, top grade magic treasures or treasures such as gong methods. There were even seven or eight items that Ning Cheng had his eye on, but Ning Cheng did not bid on any of them. What he wanted to bid on was the kind that was necessary at the moment, not something that could be purchased or not.
The trade had already taken its turn at seat number twenty-six, and sitting on this seat was a thin man with a pale face, who held up a jade box and said, “I want to trade for a Dao fruit as well, the Falling Trace Fruit ……”
The moment the words Falling Trace Fruit were said, a small stirring was immediately caused. The Falling Scar Fruit was the real Dao Fruit of Evidence, and I was afraid that more than 20% of the cultivators who came here today had come for the Dao Fruit of Evidence.
Ning Cheng also wanted this Dao fruit very badly, and he knew that now was not the right time. There were so many people here who wanted the Falling Scars Fruit, so if he made an offer to buy it, it would definitely attract attention. It was possible that he would be followed and hunted down after this trade fair ended. He had already offended the Heaven’s Beyond Dao, and it was never wise to buy the Falling Trace Fruit that was not urgently needed at this time.
He had to use his points on a knife’s edge, that is, on something that would immediately boost his strength.
As soon as the Falling Trace Fruit came out, the competition went into overdrive. The price quickly rose to 360,000 points and was still rising. Both were also Dao Fruits, and the Flowing Cotton Fruit could not be compared to the Falling Trace Fruit at all.
Ning Cheng saw that Empyrean was worried, and Ning Cheng saw that she even made an offer, she offered 330,000 points. Her price was quickly suppressed and the price of the Falling Scars Fruit rose to 360,000 points. Empty Ning’s face turned a little pale when she saw this number of points.
The price of the Falling Trace Fruit paused for a moment at three hundred and sixty thousand points, and Empty Condensation once again quoted a new price of three hundred and sixty three thousand points.
When Ning Cheng saw this price and Empty Condensation’s expression, he knew that the points Empty Condensation had on him would definitely not be able to purchase this Dao Fruit.
Sure enough, in just a few moments, the price of the Falling Trace Fruit rose to three hundred and ninety thousand points.
Empty Ning looked somewhat hesitantly towards her senior sister Shan Yaozen who had come with her, but it was as if Shan Yaozen hadn’t noticed her, staring at the bidding screen as if there were flowers on top of that screen. Ying Yongxuan, who was sitting not far away, also seemed not to see Empty Ning’s gaze for help, and likewise fixed his gaze on the bidding screen.
Ning Cheng was a little speechless, what was the point of offering a hand to help a fellow student and sister? Even if he didn’t help, he shouldn’t pretend that he didn’t know about it, should he not just say that he didn’t have enough points?
After seeing the demeanor of these two, Empty Ning’s face struggled for a moment before she withdrew her gaze. However, she was obviously very upset about the Falling Scars Fruit and actually looked towards Ning Cheng.
To be honest, Ning Cheng did not feel that the friendship between him and Empty Ning was to the extent that he could borrow points.
Empty Condensation must have also known that she and Ning Cheng did not have a friendship to the extent that they could borrow points, especially at a trade fair like this. Under such circumstances, Empty Ning still looked towards Ning Cheng, so it was evident how much she desired to obtain this Falling Trace Fruit.
Ning Cheng smiled at Kong Ning while transmitting a voice, “I still have some points left, so Senior Sister Kong Ning can call for a bid and I will lend you the points owed. If I don’t have enough points left, I will also remind you midway.”
Empty Nings had used this kind of look of help, so naturally Ning Cheng would not pretend to be unaware of it like that senior sister of hers. If he borrowed it, he would say something if he didn’t, this kind of playing dead Ning Cheng really couldn’t do it. As long as it did not exceed 100,000 points, Ning Cheng decided to help Kuan Nings. If it was too much, forgive him for not being able to do anything about it, he had also come here to increase his strength, and he absolutely could not lend out too many points.
