Lin Xuankong thought to himself:
If I add the five hundred Magic-Rank Turtle Agaric Miracle Pill I already have, I wonder how many Grade-Entry Profound Truth Jade Stone I'll acquire at this auction?
Indeed, whether it was on Earth in his previous life or in this world where strength reigns supreme, whether they were demons or human cultivators, for any living being with intelligence, survival was the strongest and most important desire!
Even ants try to survive!
Hmm, it seems I'll need to plant more herbs for the Magic-Rank Turtle Agaric Miracle Pill in the future. These Magic-Rank Turtle Agaric Miracle Pill will probably become a very important source of income for me!
Perhaps the income from these high-level Turtle Agaric Miracle Pill will be many, many times greater than the income from the Heavy Water Spirit Material and medicinal herbs in his Bashan Secret Realm!
However, it's likely that only at the Crane Immortal Sect Crane Immortal City could such a price be achieved. If these Dharma-grade Turtle Agaric Miracle Pill were placed at the auction in the Prison Dragon City of the Great Xia Dynasty, even if those cultivators at the Mortal Transformation Layer Three, fourth, and fifth levels of the Transcendent Realm were drooling with envy, they still wouldn't be able to scrape together a single Grade-level Profound Truth Jade Stone!
Thinking of this,
Lin Xuankong looked at Li Xiaolan, who was dressed in green, beside him, and felt that the more he looked at this pretty young lady, the more beautiful she became, and the more he liked her.
Well, if it weren't for the help of my young lady with her powerful alchemy talent, how would I have had the chance to obtain so many high-grade magic-level Turtle Agaric Miracle Pill? And it would have been impossible for me to just casually throw out a few high-grade magic-level Turtle Agaric Miracle Pill and cause such a frenzy among so many cultivators!
As he pondered,
The auction outside has already begun.
"Two thousand two hundred pieces of high-grade Profound Truth Jade Stone "
The second round of auction has just begun.
Surprisingly, a Early Earth Immortal immediately demanded a price of over two thousand Grade-grade Profound Truth Jade Stone.
Clearly, the happy and excited smile on the face of that white-haired Late-stage Second-grade Earth Immortal had deeply stirred the hearts of every cultivator present, so much so that this Early Earth Immortal couldn't contain himself any longer at the very beginning of the second round!
However, he couldn't hold back any longer, and the other cultivators were also somewhat unable to contain themselves.
After all, they were all old guys who had cultivated for hundreds of years. Even though they looked young and had a full head of black hair, they were all very quick-witted and knew very well that as the auction continued and the supply of Turtle Agaric Pill decreased, the auction price would likely rise higher and higher!
Moreover, such a miraculous elixir should be auctioned off properly first; the sooner we get our hands on it, the more at ease we'll feel!
then,
The atmosphere at the auction quickly became extremely lively!
"Three thousand one hundred graded Profound Truth Jade Stone! I offer three thousand one hundred graded Profound Truth Jade Stone! I, Cloud Flow Immortal, have brought plenty of graded Profound Truth Jade Stone this time. Gentlemen, if you want to compete with me on price, you'll have to be prepared to bleed a little!"
"Hahaha, old man Liuyun, you've brought a lot of Grade-1 Profound Truth Jade Stone, as if everyone else is a pauper. Come, come, I want to see whether your Cloud Flow Immortal Sect has more Grade-1 Profound Truth Jade Stone or my Thousand Hills Immortal Sect has more resources. I'll offer four thousand two hundred Grade-1 Profound Truth Jade Stone!"
"You old bastard, are you insane?"
There are many more of those Turtle Agaric Pill coming up, so don't try to compete with me this time; you can't beat me!
I'll offer four thousand five hundred pieces of Grade-Five Profound Truth Jade Stone!
"Hmph, I'll offer four thousand eight hundred Grade-10 Profound Truth Jade Stone. Come on, let's continue our contest. I want to see who can't hold on!"
"I, Cloud Flow Immortal, am determined to obtain the Turtle Agaric Pill this time. I will offer five thousand eight hundred and eighty-eight Profound Truth Jade Stone!"
"I, the Thousand Hills Immortal, will surely obtain the elixir before you this time. I will offer five thousand nine hundred and ninety-nine grade-grade Profound Truth Jade Stone!"
"Six thousand five hundred graded Profound Truth Jade Stone, come on, try adding one more!"
"Give it a try!"
soon,
In the auction house,
A Second Grade Earth Immortal named Cloud Flow Immortal and a Second Grade Earth Immortal named Thousand Hills Immortal were already locked in fierce competition!
Of course, these two Earth Immortals clearly knew each other, and although the competition was heated, it was different from the arrogant and domineering Flame Saber Duan He at the beginning. Although these two Second Grade Earth Immortal kept raising the price, they were laughing and joking, and did not stop others from participating!
Lin Xuankong, watching this scene from inside the private room, couldn't help but smile.
He actually quite liked this atmosphere. The immortal sects behind these two Second Grade Earth Immortal were obviously more powerful than that damned Flame Saber Duan He's sect. At least when these two were talking about thousands of high-grade Profound Truth Jade Stone, they didn't show any hatred in wanting to kill each other. At most, they were just bickering!
Hmm, what a lovable, wealthy dog!
Lin Xuankong was overjoyed, while the two sisters, Qu Qingfeng and Qu Qingling, inside the private room were somewhat dumbfounded.
The two had just scraped together six thousand Grade-A Profound Truth Jade Stone, which was their entire fortune.
I originally thought that the ten Turtle Agaric Pill last time could fetch the price of five thousand graded Profound Truth Jade Stone. Even if the price is higher this time, it will probably only be around five thousand five hundred or six hundred stones at most!
Little did anyone know that the second round of bidding had only just begun when 6,500 pieces of high-grade Profound Truth Jade Stone had already been auctioned off!
Seeing the bewildered expressions on her two senior sisters' faces, Li Xiaolan couldn't help but lower her head and chuckle to herself.
Although I had a pretty good relationship with these two senior female students,
But as soon as they entered the auction house, both of these senior sisters looked down on their Husband!
Hmph, I'll teach you two girls a lesson you won't forget!
Seeing the expressions on her two disciples' faces, Crane Fairy Qu Qiao'er couldn't help but chuckle softly, "Look at your expressions, you two look like you've lost your souls!"
Qu Qingfeng sighed, "Master, the price of this Turtle Agaric Pill is outrageous!"
Crane Fairy Qu Qiao'er shook her head slightly and said, "This kind of pill that can increase lifespan is extremely precious, much rarer than ordinary pills! In fact, the auction price isn't too expensive! If this were held at an auction in the central immortal city of the Central Divine Dynasty, a pill that can increase lifespan by two hundred years would probably easily fetch a much higher price, possibly even several thousand graded Profound Truth Jade Stone!"
Qu Qingfeng frowned and said, "Isn't that an exaggeration? Several thousand graded Profound Truth Jade Stone per stone? Doesn't that mean that ten Turtle Agaric Pill could fetch tens of thousands of graded Profound Truth Jade Stone?"
Crane Fairy Qu Qiao'er revealed a serious expression.
"Why was the Ten Thousand Peaks Immortal Sect, the second largest immortal sect in the Central Divine Dynasty, able to rise to become the second largest immortal sect in the Central Divine Dynasty in just a few thousand years, and even be able to suppress many old immortal sects that have been developing for more than 100,000 years?"
It's all because their immortal sect has produced a Immortal Master Wu can refine an immortal pill that can extend lifespan by five hundred years!
The Ten Thousand Peaks Immortal Sect could obtain countless resources simply by producing five hundred Longevity Immortal Pill annually.
There are often rumors that a single Longevity Immortal Pill can be sold for 20,000 Grade-grade Profound Truth Jade Stone. However, the truth is that even if you have 20,000 Grade-grade Profound Truth Jade Stone, you might not be able to buy one every time! After all, what resources the Longevity Immortal Pill can be used to exchange for is entirely up to the Ten Thousand Peaks Immortal Sect!
For example, when Senior Brother Absolute Shadow went to buy the Longevity Immortal Pill, he happened to arrive just in time for the Ten Thousand Peaks Immortal Sect to exchange the Longevity Immortal Pill for Heavenly Demon Bone, so he was able to successfully obtain a few!
For the past thousand years or so, the Longevity Immortal Pill of the Ten Thousand Peaks Immortal Sect has always been announced to be available for purchase only with the exchange of immortal artifacts!
Those are celestial artifacts. However, even with such harsh conditions from the Ten Thousand Peaks Immortal Sect, there are still quite a few mid-to-high-grade Earth Immortals nearing the end of their lifespan who try every means to obtain celestial artifacts and then go there to exchange them!
It is said that, relying solely on these Longevity Immortal Pill, the Ten Thousand Peaks Immortal Sect has acquired a full five hundred Early Stage Immortal Artifact and some first-grade immortal artifacts over the past thousand years!
"Only immortal artifacts can be exchanged?" Qu Lingfeng's eyes widened, almost in disbelief.
Qu Qingling gasped; her focus was clearly not on the Longevity Immortal Pill.
"Master, the Ten Thousand Peaks Immortal Sect actually possesses five hundred Early Stage Immortal Artifact? My goodness! Even a single immortal artifact from an ordinary immortal sect is enough to guard the sect and greatly enhance the combat strength of its powerful members! If five hundred Early Stage Immortal Artifact were controlled by a mid-to-high-grade Earth Immortal, how formidable would their combat power be?"
Crane Fairy Qu Qiao'er smiled and said:
"I don't know how powerful five hundred Early Stage Immortal Artifact would be if controlled by a mid-to-high-grade Earth Immortal, but I do know that even the Xuan Yin Demonic Sect, which is hostile to many immortal sects, wouldn't dare say that it could easily deal with the Ten Thousand Peaks Immortal Sect!"
Therefore, it's quite normal that these life-extending Turtle Agaric Miracle Pill could be auctioned off so frantically by the early-stage and First-grade Earth Immortal present!
Qu Qingfeng sighed, "Then we can save these Profound Truth Jade Stone!"
After saying that, he looked extremely annoyed.
At this moment, Li Xiaolan, who was standing next to her, couldn't help but burst out laughing.
Qu Qingfeng looked at Li Xiaolan with a hint of resentment, "Junior Sister Xiaolan, how dare you mock your senior sister? I've always treated you well, haven't I? Shouldn't you help me contribute some Profound Truth Jade Stone now?"
Li Xiaolan waved her hands repeatedly, "Senior sister, I didn't mean to gloat, much less laugh at you, I really didn't mean to laugh at you even a little bit, really not, absolutely not!"
Qu Qingfeng:
Qu Qingling said helplessly, "If you hadn't repeated yourself so many times without implying you were mocking us, I would have believed you! Wait, that's not right, Junior Sister Xiaolan, you're not usually like this!"
Hmph! You're just gloating, aren't you? Who told you two to be so cold to your Husband before!
Li Xiaolan's eyes darted around.
"Senior Sister, as you know, Xiao Lan has only been a Rank 1 cultivator for a little over a year. She has always followed Master to learn alchemy and has never gone outside the sect to carry out any special missions."
So, my usual income is just the perk for some True Disciple. I only have a few dozen graded Profound Truth Jade Stone on me. If you want them, you can take them all!
Seeing this, Lin Xuankong couldn't help but smile. His wife was truly good to him and kind-hearted, but she was also petty and couldn't bear to see him suffer any injustice. Back when he was weak, he was bullied by that so-called big boss of the Black Tiger Gang, Zhang Wu, and his wife wanted nothing more than to kill him!
As everyone was talking,
The second round of auction is finally over!
The Cloud Flow Immortal from the Cloud Flow Immortal Sect ultimately went all out, bidding so high that Lin Xuankong was overjoyed. He offered eight thousand Grade-10 Profound Truth Jade Stone, and then happily obtained the ten Law-Rank Turtle Agaric Miracle Pill.
Moreover, the Cloud Flow Immortal obtained this elixir was obviously extremely proud. After showing it off to the Thousand Hills Immortal, he then leisurely left the auction house through the secret passage of the Crane Immortal Sect.
Next,
The third round of auction went much as expected!
The Thousand Hills Immortal, who was "defeated" by the wealthy and powerful Cloud Flow Immortal, acquired ten Dharma-grade Turtle Agaric Miracle Pill for the price of 7,500 Grade-100 Xuanzhen Jade Profound Truth Jade Stone.
And so, this Thousand Hills Immortal left the auction house with a delighted expression.
The other cultivators present,
They were filled with envy and anticipation.
After all, in their view, after the fierce competition in the first three rounds, the big spenders had all offered high prices and acquired those pills at extremely high prices, so the price might come down a bit next.
But to Lin Xuankong's great surprise once again,
The subsequent bidding actually became even more intense.
As the number of Magic-Rank Turtle Agaric Miracle Pill dwindles,
The remaining cultivators not only didn't lower the price, but instead united one by one.
There were groups of a dozen or so ninth-level cultivators, as well as groups of twenty or thirty ninth-level cultivators, and even several Early Earth Immortal bidding together. The most outrageous thing was that there was even a slightly poor First-grade Earth Immortal, on the spot at the auction, formed a gang and brought together a full hundred cultivators to bid together!
result,
The fourth, fifth, and sixth rounds of bidding,
The price of ten level-one Turtle Agaric Miracle Pill was not less than nine thousand grade-one Profound Truth Jade Stone!
Moreover, after winning each auction, the cultivators who obtained ten Magic-Rank Turtle Agaric Miracle Pill would almost jump up in excitement on the spot.
This made Lin Xuankong, who came from the remote Great Xia Dynasty, almost suspect that the Grade-A Profound Truth Jade Stone they were asking for a price on was not the extremely precious Grade-A Profound Truth Jade Stone, but rather a piece of trash stone that they had just picked up by the roadside!
Lin Xuankong felt almost like he was in a dream.
When the auction reached the seventh round...
The price reached its peak because the number of high-grade Turtle Agaric Miracle Pill was becoming increasingly scarce!
Finally, the First-grade Earth Immortal who had gathered a hundred cultivators to contribute funds directly shouted out a price of 12,000 grade-grade Profound Truth Jade Stone, which was how he defeated the combined team of 30 cultivators!
but,
What slightly annoyed Lin Xuankong was that
When the eighth round of bidding began, Flame Saber Duan He, who had been silent for quite some time, finally spoke up again.
"I, Duan He, the Flame Saber Duan He, offer 1,200 Grade-2 Profound Truth Jade Stone! Fellow Daoists, surely no one would want to compete with me?"
When Duan He's voice rang out, the previously heated auction atmosphere suddenly cooled down.
