Immortal Cultivation: Starting from Improving Spiritual Root Qualification

The auction was held at the Green Ape Hall in Baiyun Immortal City.

The Green Ape Hall covers an area of ​​thousands of feet, and the internal space is huge enough to accommodate thousands of monks participating at the same time.

It is a place specially built by Baiyun Fairy City to hold large-scale events.

Early that morning, Zhou Xun took Song Yiqing and Wang Erniu to participate in the auction held once every ten years.

Arrive at the entrance of Qingyuan Hall.

Only twelve guards in the late stage of Qi training were seen, wearing standard spiritual armor and holding long spears, lined up in two rows, guarding both sides of the entrance.

There is also a foundation-building monk in the middle who is responsible for welcoming them.

It is Feng Ting Li.

That day at Jinyun Valley Baiyun Station, because his residence was also on the outskirts, he escaped a disaster.

On the other hand, Yan Lei and Lu Jinwu fell directly on the spot.

"Alchemist Zhou, please come quickly, please come quickly!" Feng Tingli greeted politely.

"Fellow Daoist Feng!" Zhou Xun returned the favor.

After a brief greeting, Zhou Xun entered the Green Ape Hall under the leadership of a servant.

The boy took Zhou Xun directly to the private room No. 17, which was specially assigned to Zhou Xun.

There are a total of fifty private rooms like this, and only people with high enough status can have them.

Not long after we sat down, two beautiful maids came in carrying spiritual wine and spiritual fruits. After putting them down, they bowed and left.

"Er Niu, after looking at the auction list, do you have any favorite treasures?" Zhou Xun asked, looking at Wang Er Niu.

"There are two of them, the Spirit Fusion Stone and the Silver Essence. It's just that the Spirit Stone is not enough, so I might need some support from my eldest brother!"

Wang Erniu said a little embarrassed.

Spirit-melting stones and silver essences are rare and precious spiritual materials. They are often used to refine top-grade magic weapons. They are even occasionally used as auxiliary materials in some low-grade magic weapons.

Calculated according to the market price, the two spiritual materials add up to about 6,000 spiritual stones. Even if there is a premium at the auction, it will not exceed too much.

"You can feel free to bid boldly, and my brother will give you the full scoop!"

Zhou Xun waved his hand and said nonchalantly.

"Thank you, brother!" Wang Erniu nodded and said gratefully.

"Yiqing, where are you!" Zhou Xun asked the girl next to him.

"I am of low cultivation, I can't even use the treasures here!" Song Yiqing whispered softly.

She was able to break through to the fourth level of Qi training a few months ago, and the items on sale here are all top-grade magic weapons at the lowest level.

Hearing this, Zhou Xun didn't say anything, but glanced at the auction list, and his eyes fell on the "Beauty Pill" on it.

How can it be useless? This beauty elixir is a treasure that countless female cultivators yearn for.

Probably because of its price.

Zhou Xun once bought one from Baiyundanfang, with a 10% discount and it cost 3,600 spirit stones. At this auction, the price was high but not low.

He sighed and made a decision in his mind.

After more than an hour, the auction officially began.

The person responsible for presiding over the ceremony was Zhou Buqi, the chief steward.

"Welcome everyone to participate in our Baiyun Immortal City's once-in-a-decade auction event. I won't hold it next week, but I will be the host of today's auction."

After a short opening remarks, the auction officially began.

"The first auction item is five genuine Foundation Establishment Pills!"

Hearing the news about the five Foundation Establishment Pills, the people in the field made a fuss.

"Baiyun Immortal City is truly extraordinary!"

"As expected of the light of my casual cultivator!"

"How magnificent, Master Baiyun!"

Even Zhou Xun couldn't help but be amazed by Xian Cheng's generosity.

As a strategic material, Foundation Establishment Pills are extremely difficult to buy even if you have money, and none of the major pill shops in Baiyun Immortal City sell them.

If most monks want to obtain this elixir, they can only collect the materials themselves and ask a second-level alchemist to refine it.

For example, the Lin family prepared the materials themselves and asked Zhou Xun to take action.

When he saw the name of Foundation Establishment Pills on the auction list, Zhou Xun originally thought there were only two or at most three pills, but he didn't expect that there were as many as five.

What's more, a large number of foundation-building monks have been killed in Baiyun Immortal City, which further highlights the preciousness of this thing!

With a thought in his mind, Zhou Xun quickly figured it out.

For one thing, the power of Baiyun Immortal City lies in Master Baiyun, not in those foundation-building monks.

Secondly, Baiyun Immortal City has just suffered a heavy blow, so it needs to show calmness and magnanimity instead of being fussy.

It should be noted that the more urgent it is, the more calm you must be; the more vulnerable you are, the more ferocious you must be!

Zhou Buqi looked at the lively atmosphere, nodded with satisfaction, and continued:

"The base price is four thousand spirit stones. Each increase in price must not be less than one hundred spirit stones. The first one will be auctioned now."

"Five thousand spiritual stones!" A middle-aged man's voice came from a private room not far from Zhou Xun.

"I want to buy a foundation-building pill for five thousand spirit stones. The Hu family master must be asking too much. I will pay for six thousand spirit stones!"

Another sharp male voice sounded.

"Yu Laosi, there are five Foundation Establishment Pills. Why do you want to compete with me? I will pay you seven thousand!" The middle-aged voice was unhurried, with a hint of joking, and he added another thousand.

"Haha, Mr. Hu is so brave. I'll give this elixir to you!" The sharp man sounded like he was succeeding in his treacherous plan.

"Yu Laosi, you!" The middle-aged man's voice had a hint of anger.

The price of seven thousand spirit stones has already reached a premium of 50%.

Ordinary private transaction prices for Foundation Establishment Pills are around four thousand to five thousand spirit stones.

But once the words have been exported, they cannot be recycled.

Soon, the first Foundation Establishment Pill was taken by the "Hu family leader" with 7,000 spirit stones.

Then the second one started to be auctioned.

As soon as Zhou Buqi finished speaking, the sharp male voice sounded again:

"Seven thousand spirit stones!"

"Master Hu, Yu also offered the price of 7,000 spirit stones today, so you might say that I'm driving up the price!"

There were seven thousand spiritual stones, and the price was nearly doubled, which shocked everyone present.

Soon, the second Foundation Establishment Pill was won by "Yu Laosi" for the same price of 7,000 spirit stones.

"Brother Yu, your strategy is good. You and I both get a Foundation Establishment Pill. Although the price is a bit higher, it is still affordable!"

The middle-aged man said.

"Haha, three months before this auction was when the Golden Cloud Valley opened. Compared to the previous auctions, there are many more monks!"

"Do those people still want to win a Foundation Establishment Pill with four or five thousand like before?" The sharp man sneered.

The two of them had decided on a strategy to bid against each other before the auction, and took the opportunity to win two Foundation Establishment Pills. It didn't matter if the price was higher.

As long as you can get the Foundation Establishment Pill, it's all worth it.

Soon, the remaining three Foundation Establishment Pills were also auctioned off, and none of them were priced lower than 7,000.

The last one was sold for eight thousand spirit stones!

This auction of the Foundation Establishment Pill made many monks who had participated in previous Baiyun Immortal City auctions realize that the competition was too fierce!

Sure enough, in the next few auctions, the prices sold were 10% to 20% higher than those in previous auctions.

Strategic resources such as the Foundation Building Pill and the Mirror-breaking Pill command a premium of more than 50%.

Soon, the auction for the spirit-melting stone that Wang Erniu was interested in began.
