Chapter 63 Soul Gathering Stone
"You wait here first."
Xia Chen raised his legs and walked towards the inside. Just as he reached the gate, he was stopped by two guards.
Although these two warriors blocked Xia Chen, they seemed very polite. After all, Xia Chen looked extraordinary, and maybe he had a lot of power behind him, and they couldn't be provoked by a mere guard.
"My lord, do you have any invitations? Our Dongsheng Building only accepts distinguished guests with invitations."
One of the guards with a slightly pale face said softly.
"Invitation?"
Xia Chen shook his head, then took out his identity card from his treasure bag, and said calmly: "I don't have an invitation card, but I have this one. I wonder if I am eligible to enter Dongsheng Building?"
The two guards can be guards in Dongsheng Building, so their knowledge is not bad. Therefore, after seeing the identity card in Xia Chen's hand, they immediately put on a smiling face and said respectfully: "It turns out that they are disciples of Dongtian Pavilion." , you naturally don’t need an invitation card, please come in, my lord.”
Dongtian Pavilion is one of the four five-star powers in the entire Dongzhou. It is a well-deserved behemoth. Any disciple who walks out of Dongtian Pavilion, even if it is an outer disciple, is definitely not something that ordinary forces can offend.
Therefore, seeing Xia Chen holding the ID card of Dongtian Pavilion, it proved that Xia Chen was a disciple of Dongtian Pavilion, so they naturally didn't dare to stop him.
Therefore, Xia Chen withdrew his ID card and followed a guard into the Dongsheng Building. He was also curious, the guards were so strict that he could not enter without an invitation. What is so special about this Dongsheng Building?
When Xia Chen walked into the Dongsheng Building, he found that the decoration inside was very, very magnificent, but there were fewer people. After a closer look, almost all of them were some beautiful women dancing, as if they were rehearsing the dance.
Soon, the guard brought Xia Chen into a hall, and said respectfully: "My lord, please wait a moment, I will report to the deputy manager."
After that, he turned around and left.
In the hall, the beautiful maid served a cup of tea. The steaming aroma of the tea was even more refreshing. It was obviously very high-quality tea, and he always served this kind of good tea to the guests. Xia Chen became more and more curious about the Dongsheng Building. What is it for.
Soon, an old man in his fifties came to the hall. Although his blood was restrained, Xia Chen's consciousness immediately discovered the extraordinaryness of this old man. And it seems that the blood has not decayed, and the energy is very strong.
This is not easy, even if it is a strong man with copper skin and iron bones, if he has not condensed a cyclone and is not nourished by the vitality of heaven and earth, then his blood will slowly decay.
For ordinary people, it is not easy to keep the qi and blood from decaying until the age of 40, not to mention that this old man is over 50 years old. To keep the qi and blood from decaying, he does not know how many precious medicinal materials are used.
"This young master has been waiting for a long time. I don't know what to call the young master, the deputy manager of Dongsheng Building?"
As soon as the old man came in, his eyes lit up when he saw Xia Chen. It was because Xia Chen's vitality was too thick, and he was obviously not copper-skinned and iron-boned.
From the eyes of an old man, he naturally knows that once Xia Chen is forged into a copper-skinned iron bone, he may immediately become a strong man at the peak of copper-skinned iron bone, and he is also an outer disciple of Dongtian Pavilion. cyclone.
For such a disciple of Dongtian Pavilion with a bright future, the old man's tone was naturally very kind.
"My surname is Xia, and I took the liberty to come to Dongsheng Tower this time because I wanted to ask for something."
Xia Chen put down the teacup and said calmly.
"Oh? I don't know what Mr. Xia's order is? As long as we can do it in Dongsheng Building, we will do our best!"
The deputy chief said with a smile.
Xia Chen took a deep breath, and then said: "Before that, I don't know if the deputy manager can tell you the truth, what exactly does your building do?"
"Master Xia doesn't know?"
The old man was also slightly taken aback, he didn't expect that Xia Chen didn't even know where Dongsheng Building was.
Xia Chen shook his head, the old man felt a little helpless, but he still introduced enthusiastically: "It's okay if you don't know, this old man will introduce you to Mr. Xia. Our Dongsheng Building is actually an auction house, and the auctions are not ordinary things. , are some precious treasures that are useful to peak warriors and even practitioners. For example, some powerful martial arts and treasures, we have also auctioned them."
"auction?"
Xia Chen nodded thoughtfully, no wonder the decoration of this Dongsheng Building is so luxurious, Xia Chen naturally knows about the auction house, there is actually an auction house in Fengcheng, Xia Chen has also been there before.
Among the auction items in Dongsheng Building, there is actually a treasure. It seems that the strength is indeed not small, and maybe there is a soul-gathering stone.
Therefore, Xia Chen's expression straightened, and he said in a deep voice: "I want the soul-gathering stone, do you have any in your building?"
"Soul Gathering Stone? Could it be that Mr. Xia is a refiner?"
The deputy manager stood up suddenly, his eyes were full of shock. As the deputy manager of Dongsheng Building, he even presided over the auction of some treasures. He knew the value of a refiner better than anyone else.
This soul-gathering stone can only be used by refiners, so the old man is so excited.
Xia Chen looked calm, shook his head and said: "Deputy manager, which refiner do you think is a mere body refiner?"
The old man was taken aback for a moment, looked at Xia Chen carefully, seemed to have suddenly realized, and then laughed out loud: "That's right, every refiner is at least a strong man who has condensed a cyclone, and there are too few body refiners who become refiners." Too few. Since Mr. Xia is not a refiner, what is the use of soul-gathering stones?"
Xia Chen looked cold, and said lightly: "Could it be that your building needs to get to the bottom of the guests?"
The old man's expression changed slightly, and he immediately knew that his words violated a big taboo, so he hurriedly clasped his fists and said, "Master Xia, this old man is really confused. We do have some soul-gathering stones in Dongsheng Building, but there are not many in stock."
"Oh? Are there really Soul Gathering Stones? How many are there?"
Xia Chen felt a little joy in his heart, he didn't expect that Dongsheng Building actually had a soul-gathering stone.
A gleam flashed in the old man's eyes, he thought carefully for a while and said: "We can probably take out ten soul-gathering stones."
"Ten pieces? Although it's a little less, it's enough. I don't know the price of the soul-gathering stone in your building?"
Hearing Xia Chen's inquiry about the price, the old man was refreshed, and said with a slight smile on the corner of his mouth: "Actually, the soul-gathering stone is not very expensive, but if the soul-gathering picture is engraved on the soul-gathering stone, then the price is quite expensive. Since Mr. Xia is coming to our Dongsheng Building for the first time, then this old man will have a good relationship, and one soul-gathering stone only needs ten vitality stones."
"Ten vitality stones are indeed not expensive."
Xia Chen pondered for a moment, this price is indeed not expensive, even in the trading hall of Dongtian Pavilion, the exchange price for a soul-gathering stone is nine contribution points.
Outside, it is naturally more expensive. Originally, Xia Chen thought that he would need more than a dozen vitality stones to buy a soul-gathering stone, but he did not expect that the other party only needed ten vitality stones. He really wanted to make friends with him.
Therefore, Xia Chen didn't hesitate, and said directly: "Okay, I want all ten Soul Gathering Stones!"
Ten soul-gathering stones are a total of one hundred vitality stones. If it is exchanged for silver taels, it is almost 100 million taels of silver. For ordinary people, this is almost an astronomical sum.
The old man was also in a good mood. He didn't expect Xia Chen to be so forthright and wanted all of them at once. In fact, Dongshenglou only bought some soul-gathering stones occasionally. It was just for show. After all, only refiners would need soul-gathering stones.And refiners are basically monopolized by some large forces, so naturally they don't have to worry about soul gathering stones.
I didn't expect that when I met Xia Chen now, I could really sell it.
"Okay, Mr. Xia, please wait a moment, this old man will let someone bring the soul-gathering stone."
So, the old man waved his hand, and a maid quickly left with her head down.
The two exchanged pleasantries for a while, and the old man was still testing his words, hoping to know Xia Chen's truth, but Xia Chen had already made preparations, so naturally he didn't reveal the slightest hint.
Soon, the maid who had just left came back with a tray in her hand.
The old man uncovered the red cloth on the tray, and there were soul-gathering stones like white jade on the plate. Xia Chen couldn't help picking up a soul-gathering stone and looked at it carefully. He was very satisfied. A good soul-gathering stone.
"That's right, they are all high-quality soul-gathering stones. These are one hundred vitality stones, please count them carefully."
Seeing the soul-gathering stone, Xia Chen directly took out a hundred low-grade vitality stones and placed them on the table.
"Haha, no need, I still trust Mr. Xia."
The deputy manager didn't even look at it, and asked the maid to accept the vitality stone.
"Since I have the Soul Gathering Stone, I won't bother you anymore."
Xia Chen stood up, ready to say goodbye and leave.
"Young Master Xia, wait a minute."
The old man took out a purple gold-plated invitation card from his pocket, and said softly: "This is a VIP invitation card. As long as Mr. Xia presents this invitation card every time, you will get a [-]% discount on all purchases, and every auction, Mr. Xia You can directly enter the VIP room."
Xia Chen glanced at the old man with some surprise, he just bought a mere hundred vitality stones, far from those real rich and powerful people, but why is he so favored by the old man?
But this invitation was indeed a good thing, Xia Chen really planned to come back later, so he accepted the invitation, turned around and left.
The old man’s eyes narrowed slightly, staring at Xia Chen’s leaving back, he seemed to have a lot of meaning, while the maid next to him asked a little puzzled: “Mr. But there is no need for the adults to show him such favors, right? That is a VIP invitation, and this invitation alone is worth thousands of vitality stones."
"Hmph, what do you know? The soul-gathering stone is not a rare treasure. It is available in the trading hall of Dongtian Pavilion, and it is cheaper. But this Mr. Xia, why did you come to our Dongsheng Building to buy it? He must be I don’t want to be discovered by the people of Dongtian Pavilion that he bought the soul-gathering stone, and the soul-gathering stone can only be used to engrave the soul-gathering map!”
The maid was also appreciating the old man's words, and then gradually opened her mouth. She already knew the meaning behind the old man's words.
"Could the manager be optimistic that Mr. Xia can engrave a complete picture of gathering souls?"
"Even if there is only a small chance, this invitation is worth it."
After the old man finished speaking, he quickly turned around and left. He had already sent out quite a few invitations like this, and even if only one of them was useful, it would be a great achievement for Dongshenglou!
