“Thank you all for coming. Without further ado, let’s commence the auction,” The white-robed elder, standing behind the auction podium, pronounced the beginning of the auction succinctly, avoiding unnecessary chatter.
“Our first auction item is the supreme magic artifact, the Azure Scale War Lance. This weapon possesses unparalleled offensive power and endless might. Crafted by a master artisan, its value is self-evident. The bidding starts from three thousand lower-grade Spirit Stones.”
At these words, the eyes of many cultivators present were instantly drawn to the supreme magic artifact.
If they were to obtain this artifact, it would certainly greatly enhance their individual combat power.
“Three thousand five hundred lower-grade Spirit Stones.”
“I bid three thousand seven hundred lower-grade Spirit Stones.”
“Don’t compete with me; I bid three thousand nine hundred lower-grade Spirit Stones.”
Suddenly, a group of cultivators began bidding fanatically, all vying to gain possession of the supreme magic artifact.
In the end, this artifact was auctioned for a high price of five thousand lower-grade Spirit Stones.
!!..
“Golden Marrow Pills have a miraculous effect on cultivators in the late stage of Qi Cultivation. One bottle contains three pills and has a starting bid of one thousand five hundred lower-grade Spirit Stones. We have a total of ten bottles available. First come, first served.”
The white-robed elder continued auctioning items.
At this moment, Zhou Sui was in a private room, watching the frenzy of bidding amongst the cultivators.
Now, he had witnessed the multitude of treasures enclosed in an auction.
Pills of all sorts that could enhance True Yuan, improve mana, or break through bottlenecks. Supreme magic artifacts, curiosities, vital herbs, rare materials, and so on.
This was akin to a treasure trove, enough to make anyone’s head spin and their heart flutter with excitement.
Of course, he too had bid on some of the pills, such as the Anti-aging Elixir, which could preserve one’s youthful appearance. Both he and his three wives needed these elixirs.
He also bid on the cultivation-boosting Golden Marrow Pills and spent around twenty to thirty thousand lower-grade Spirit Stones.
“Centenarian Dragon Transformation Ginseng, celestial vital herb rumored to contain a speck of dragon’s blood, the bidding starts at eight thousand lower-grade Spirit Stones. If you desire it, you may bid. Once the chance slips away, you will no longer have another.”
The white-robed elder cried out.
What?!
Upon hearing these words, Zhou Sui’s face changed. His heart began to throb fiercely, and he felt indescribably thrilled.
Centenarian Dragon Transformation Ginseng was one of the main ingredients required to concoct the Dragon Elephant Gu.
If he obtained this vital herb, he would have the opportunity to concoct the Dragon Elephant Gu.
Of course, the Dragon Elephant Gu required two main ingredients, Dragon Transformation Ginseng, and Barbaric Elephant Grass. Either of these vital herbs was extremely rare and difficult to find.
Previously, he couldn’t find any similar vital herbs in the Pill Medicine Pavilion of Misty Cloud City.
Unexpectedly, he found the necessary herb at the Xuanbao Tower auction. He was indeed fortunate, for it was as if he had stumbled upon it when he wasn’t even looking.
Without a doubt, if he were to successfully concoct the Dragon Elephant Gu, he would immediately possess the Power of the Dragon Elephant and acquire the Dragon Elephant Body Constitution.
By then, he wouldn’t require any body tempering techniques. With the power of the Dragon Elephant Gu, his constitution would be formidable, comparable to the Dragon Elephant’s Body.
Simply put, he was determined to acquire this vital herb and wouldn’t let this opportunity slip away.
Consequently, Zhou Sui began bidding.
Originally, he thought that such an astounding vital herb would surely stimulate a lot of competitive bidding. However, Zhou Sui discovered that when he increased the bid to eight thousand five hundred lower-grade Spirit Stones, no one outbid him anymore.
Thus, this Dragon Transformation Ginseng was smoothly acquired by him.
“What’s going on?”
Zhou Sui was perplexed.
“My lord, the name ‘Dragon Transformation Ginseng’ sounds impressive and might fool a lot of people with the claim that it contains traces of dragon blood. However, there’s no such thing within it. Had there truly been dragon blood, it would never have ended up at this auction; it would have been taken by Golden Core Masters a long time ago,” Ji Bingyu explained, “Similar century-old vital herbs are plentiful, and their efficacy doesn’t differ too much from Dragon Transformation Ginseng. The price of eight thousand five hundred lower-grade Spirit Stones can be considered a bit steep. Cultivators don’t possess a vast amount of Spirit Stones, so they wouldn’t waste them on a single century-old vital herb.”
“I see.”
Hearing her explanation, Zhou Sui nodded, understanding that while the Dragon Transformation Ginseng might be fundamentally beneficial to him, other cultivators didn’t see it in the same light. They would rather spend their spirit stones on a bottle of Yellow Dragon Pill.
That’s why they gave up after only a few competitive bids.
“Of course, the main reason these cultivators chose not to participate in the bidding is because there’s an item worth even more: the Foundation Pill,” Ji Bingyu dropped the bombshell in a solemn tone.
Sure enough, as soon as her words fell, the white-robed elder on the podium cried out in excitement, “Next, we move to the main event of our auction: a top-quality Foundation Pill, which increases the probability of achieving the Foundation Establishment stage by fifty percent. The bidding starts at one hundred thousand lower-grade Spirit Stones. First come, first served, folks. Don’t miss it.”
What?!
As soon as these words were spoken and heard by the cultivators present, there was an immediate uproar. This was unbelievably astounding.
Typically, Foundation Pills available at auctions are of ordinary quality, and sometimes inferior.
This was already enough to make countless cultivators salivate with desire.
But now, incredibly, a top-quality Foundation Pill had appeared. This signified that upon consumption, one is practically guaranteed to achieve Foundation Establishment.
This naturally invoked a mad scramble amidst the many cultivators present.
“No wonder the cultivators from various clans and sects haven’t been particularly competitive in bidding for previous items. They’ve been waiting for this top-quality Foundation Pill, haven’t they?” Zhou Sui squinted his eyes.
A feeling of foreboding arose within him.
If it had been an inferior Foundation Pill, he might have had the chance to purchase it.
But now, with a top-quality Foundation Pill that assures a nearly certain chance of achieving Foundation Establishment status was on offer, it was unlikely anyone would let it slide, especially the cultivator clans.
A single top-quality Foundation Pill meant two hundred years of prosperity for a family. There was no chance they’d let it slip.
“I bid one hundred and ten thousand lower-grade Spirit Stones.”
A cultivator immediately made a bid.
“One hundred and fifty thousand lower-grade Spirit Stones. I hope you all won’t compete with me. I am the head of the Bai family.”
“Step aside, what is the Bai family? I bid one hundred and sixty thousand lower-grade Spirit Stones.”
“One hundred and seventy thousand lower-grade Spirit Stones. No one should even think of robbing me of my chance to establish a foundation.”
In an instant, numerous cultivators began placing bids amidst uproarious energy, creating quite the lively spectacle.
In merely a short while, the price astonishingly shot up to two hundred thousand lower-grade Spirit Stones.
“Insane, utterly insane. It’s just one Foundation Pill; how can it be so expensive?”
Mu Ziyi exclaimed incredulously.
She had initially thought she might have a chance to bid for a Foundation Pill, but she hadn’t expected its price to surge to two hundred thousand lower-grade Spirit Stones in such a short time. It was just too exaggerated.
“Two hundred fifty thousand lower-grade Spirit Stones. I hope everyone will give the Lu family some face. We will surely return the favor in the future.”
Just then, the door to one of the booths swung open with a creak, revealing an elderly man with white hair. Dressed in an opulent robe and emanating an aura of awe-inspiring authority, he nodded his head at everyone present, signaling his intent to secure the top-quality Foundation Pill at all costs. He hoped the cultivators present would give him some respect.
This elderly man was none other than the famed patriarch of the Lu family, and the actual controller of Misty Cloud City.
After all, the Lu family’s ancient ancestor was mostly in seclusion, leaving this Lu family patriarch to handle majority of the matters.
One could say he had great authority and power within the Lu family..
