Acquired, and Its Destination

Inside the auction hall, the Moonlight Stone's luster seemed to dim somewhat again.

The images that everyone sees are no longer as clear as before.

I could only vaguely sense it, indistinct and indistinct.

However, the auction prices became even more competitive at this point.

Besides the two people bidding on the second floor, cultivators on the first floor, both in the private rooms and at the Rogue Cultivator seats, also began bidding.

Ye Jingcheng also made a bid.

However, he bid rather casually because this was the task Ye Xinghe had told him about.

You don't need to call it to the end, but you must add it at the top.

This recipe for the wine had obviously been advertised before. Ye Jingcheng hadn't sensed it before, but now he discovered that there were quite a few Foundation Establishment cultivators wearing Spirit-Isolating Robe among the Rogue Cultivator Foundation Establishment.

Among the cubicles owned by Foundation Establishment cultivators, there were several that Ye Jingcheng did not recognize.

Having spent several years in Taihang Marketplace, he was extremely familiar with the major Lineage of Taihang Commandery.

This includes their geniuses, their Foundation Establishment cultivators, and even their clan mountains, subordinate counties and towns, and the situation of ordinary people.

"Thirty-three thousand Spirit Stone!" Finally, after a series of chaotic price fluctuations, a dignified voice rang out from the Mo Family's private room on the second floor.

There was no threat in his voice, but no one could ignore his identity.

After all, this was a voice that many Lineage cultivators had ordered their younger generations to memorize.

This was also the ancestor of the Mo Family, the only Purple Mansion cultivator currently known to the Mo Family, who lived to be three hundred years old and had witnessed countless years of turmoil in Taihang Commandery.

The price reached 33,000 Spirit Stone.

A typical wine recipe would cost around 20,000 Spirit Stone. The reason this recipe moved everyone so much was that it could extend lifespan.

Even if the extension is minuscule, for a cultivator, even one more day is of extraordinary value.

Not to mention, this wine can also enhance cultivation, making it a double boost.

"Thirty-four thousand Spirit Stone!" Another thousand were added, and this time, without exception, it was the Xu Family's patriarch.

Both ancestors spoke calmly, seemingly posing no threat whatsoever, but the mere sound of their voices was enough to intimidate.

"Thirty-four thousand five hundred Spirit Stone!" The Mo Family patriarch continued adding.

Just as the Xu Family patriarch was about to continue bidding, a voice rang out again from the private room on the first floor.

"Forty thousand Spirit Stone!" This time, nearly five thousand Spirit Stone were added.

This drew everyone's attention in this direction.

The Xu Family and Mo Family families fell silent for a moment, clearly not expecting anyone to bid on the first floor.

And it's so much higher.

However, after a moment of silence, the Mo Family patriarch raised the price again.

"Forty thousand five hundred Spirit Stone!" His voice held a hint of anger.

"Forty-one thousand Spirit Stone!" The Xu Family patriarch was equally assertive.

"Forty-five thousand Spirit Stone!" The untimely voice rang out again on the first floor.

In the end, everyone wanted to peer through the Spirit-Isolating Robe in the private room to see who the two great Purple Mansion Lineage were really behind.

It's still the same person who commissioned the photography.

After all, this sounds too much like a price negotiation.

However, the price is unusually high; a typical second-tier high-grade magic Law Artifact would cost around the same.

It's important to know that auction houses take a 20% cut, so even those who bid on items through consignment will still have to pay a hefty amount of Spirit Stone.

Although the entire auction hall was filled with people, no one spoke; in fact, it was rather quiet.

"Since no one called, it should be mine, right, auctioneer?" After a while, the cultivator spoke up.

This scene also made Silver Moon on the stage somewhat embarrassed, as the auctioneer had actually forgotten to announce the verdict.

However, this was not her mistake, but rather a favor she owed to the Xu and Mo Families.

"Forty-five thousand Spirit Stone per time!"

"Forty-five thousand Spirit Stone twice!"

"Forty-five thousand Spirit Stone three times!"

"Sold!" It was only when the deal was finalized that everyone seemed to snap out of their daze from the auction.

The figure inside the private room had already gone backstage to exchange for treasures and hand over Spirit Stone.

Ye Jingcheng also headed backstage.

He bought Three Thousand Harmony Furnace and sold Fire Heart Pill, and also needed to go to the back office to make connections.

"It's just a gimmick. Either the Mo Family Xu Family is behind this!" Ye Xinghe shook his head.

He saw this trick called "planting" and understood its principles.

But this time, the Li Family's plans were destined to fail.

The moment the Three Thousand Harmony Furnace fell into Ye Jingcheng's hands, the Li Family's Dao of Alchemy essentially came to an end.

"Congratulations, senior. You still need to pay 10,200 Spirit Stone. We'll round down the 40!" The person in charge of exchanging the stones at the back was a cultivator at the ninth level of Qi Refining, and also one of Ward Master Jiang's confidants.

He was quite pot-bellied, which made him somewhat resemble Ye Xinghe. The two were also very compatible in their speech and mannerisms, and when they looked at each other, they even seemed to have a mutual appreciation.

Even so, the amount of Spirit Stone needed to be replenished was still not much less.

Under normal circumstances, Ye Jingcheng would only need to replenish more than nine thousand Spirit Stone, but unfortunately, twenty percent of the Fire Heart Pill was extracted.

Only a little over six thousand Spirit Stone remain.

In Taihang Marketplace, both ordinary treasures and regular grand finale treasures are subject to a 10% commission. However, for someone like Ye Jingcheng who forcibly elevates an ordinary treasure to a grand finale treasure, the commission increases by an additional 10%.

Ye Jingcheng accepted the Three Thousand Harmony Furnace. Compared to the Azure Elephant Furnace, this Pill Furnace was made of a far superior material.

In terms of touch and the feel of the array patterns, it was far superior, making Ye Jingcheng love it so much.

If Sword Cultivator's sword is Sword Cultivator life, then the same is true for Alchemist's Pill Furnace.

"Go back and try refining the Purplewood Pill!" Ye Jingcheng made up his mind, completely putting the matter of the wine recipe out of his mind.

Moreover, he also has the Jade Soul Pill, which allows him to prepare for breaking through to the Divine Sense before refining spiritual pills. With the amplification from the Pill Furnace, he might actually be able to produce a mid-grade second-tier spiritual pill at that time.

While Ye Jingcheng remained calm, the entire Taihang Marketplace was far from peaceful, as everyone was searching for that cultivator.

Some of the more audacious ones would even follow behind the cultivator in the Spirit-Isolating Robe.

However, in less than a quarter of an hour, most of the cultivators lost track of them.

At this moment, many cultivators from the Mo Family's shops have also disappeared, as if they have all been ordered to search for them in the market.

In the shop's basement, brightly lit, the Mo Family patriarch had already arrived.

He sat on a nanmu armchair, his expression serious, as if he were thinking about something. After a long while, a cultivator in a Spirit-Isolating Robe entered.

The Mo Family patriarch looked at the Spirit-Isolating Robe cultivator in front of him, removed his hood, and handed over a Jade Slip.

The Mo Family patriarch was immediately extremely satisfied.

"This Jade Slip is indeed the recipe for the Supreme Mystery Turtle's wine!" After reading it for a while, the Mo Family patriarch exclaimed.

"Ancestor, in recent years, there has been a constant stream of cultivators buying up Blue Wave Wine, and this time there's even the hype surrounding the Supreme Mystic Turtle Wine Formula..."

"It seems like three months have passed, but it's an incredible coincidence!"

"They might be forcing the Mo Family to take action!"

"It's alright, the wine will still be sold, and we'll accept the Spirit Stone he brings. However, this wine recipe isn't suitable to circulate here; it's best left for the Lineage's cultivators..."

"Taihang Commandery is only suitable for selling Blue Wave Wine!" The Mo Family patriarch nodded.

Selling Blue Wave Wine in this way is indeed risky, but they also have reasons to do so.

"Yes, that's right. I'll take this wine recipe with me in a while, and I'll also announce my seclusion at that time!"

"But I always feel a little uneasy!"

"Ye Family also recently bought Blue Wave Wine?" the Mo Family patriarch asked after finishing his sentence.

"I bought it, and that's strange, the waters in Taihang Commandery are still quite deep..."
