At the auction, the price of Foundation Establishment sets of three did not surge as much as when they were sold individually.

Instead, the price stabilized at around 60,000 Spirit Stone.

Even well-known Qi Rogue Cultivator planned to pool their resources and buy Foundation Establishment together.

After all, a single one sells for nearly 30,000 Spirit Stone, while three sold together only cost a little over 20,000.

Although there are differences in the quality and grade of Foundation Establishment, it is easy to negotiate; those who offer more Spirit Stone will naturally offer better quality pills.

Therefore, after the first five groups, the number of Spirit Stone for the Foundation Establishment group gradually reached just over 70,000.

Inside the Wan Family's private room on the second floor, Wan Chengyi looked at Wan Hongchang, who had also purchased a set of Foundation Establishment, and his eyes showed confusion.

"Fifth Uncle, why did you bid for the Foundation Establishment? This could very well lead to a shortage of Spirit Stone when you reach the Purple Mansion!"

"It's definitely not enough. There's no need to look anymore. There are already many Lineage buying Purple Palace Jade Liquid. Now that the pressure of Foundation Establishment is so low, everyone is just thinking the same thing. They've forgotten that although the Jin Family and Kong Family didn't come in, they can still buy from Rogue Cultivator. With Spirit Talisman -blocking talismans on, even the Taiyi Sect can't say anything."

"In addition, the other Lineage in Taiqing Commandery have also made preparations, and the Ye Family is also a formidable enemy!" A sense of helplessness appeared in Wan Hongchang's eyes.

The Wan Family was being targeted by the Taiyi Sect had already exhausted him, and the Lineage had even offered up a top-quality Spirit Herb Garden and some sword stone mines.

Now, Taiqing Commandery is facing problems again, and it is very likely to become the second outlet for these problems after Taihang Commandery.

Wan Family naturally needs to strengthen its capabilities.

But sometimes, unfortunately, the budget doesn't allow it.

Most importantly, it was the Wan Family that won the bid for the Purple Palace Jade Liquid last time.

"Fifth Uncle, the Ye Family contacted us before. Should we invite them to the Taiqing Foundation Establishment Trade Fair in three days?" Wan Chengyi asked again.

"An invitation. Now that the Zhong Family of Taiqing Commandery has fallen, they have gained much more benefits. Whoever comes, we welcome them!" Wan Hongchang nodded, his eyes flashing with a sharp light.

With all the Foundation Establishment successfully auctioned off, Qiu Xianyun breathed a sigh of relief.

Although the price of the Foundation Establishment was slightly lower than expected, it was still within their acceptable range, and he wouldn't be held accountable.

He waved his hand, and a huge cage appeared in the distance.

"Next up is the grand finale auction!"

"There are a total of six treasures to be unveiled this time, and this is the first one!" Qiu Xianyun deliberately kept everyone in suspense, taking a long time to reveal the first item.

They pulled the cage closer, but did not immediately lift the red cloth.

This red cloth clearly has the function of isolating Divine Sense.

Although everyone guessed that it was a Spirit Beast, they were now even more curious about what kind of Spirit Beast it was.

At that very moment, someone suddenly sensed that the temperature of the surrounding air seemed to rise abruptly.

They couldn't help but gasp in surprise.

"This is Fire Attribute Demon Beast!"

After hearing many people in the room speak, Qiu Xianyun finally smiled.

"Everyone guessed right!"

He stepped forward, tore off the red cloth, paused, and then spoke again.

"This is indeed Spirit Beast!"

"But it's more than just Spirit Beast; it's a Verdant Sun Bird that has generated primordial Spirit Flame!"

At this moment, Ye Jingcheng's interest also greatly increased.

Inside the cage was a Verdant Sun Bird, about ten feet tall, roughly the same size as his Golden Falcon. However, its claws and beak were covered with scars, and the dense blue downy feathers on its thighs were beginning to thin and lose their luster, clearly indicating that it was an old bird.

Its potential isn't high, but most importantly, a flame burns atop the head of this Verdant Sun Bird.

This azure flame was truly miraculous, constantly swirling and rising, and continuously drawing in the surrounding Spiritual Qi.

Many even felt that the Verdant Sun Bird had absorbed much of its life essence because of the Azure Sun Flame, as if it had been used as lamp oil.

"Fire cultivators and alchemists should pay close attention. This is a primordial Spirit Flame, but it's also a mutated primordial Spirit Flame, comparable to a second-tier heaven and earth Spirit Flame!" Qiu Xianyun shouted.

Ye Jingcheng also discovered that this cyan flame was extremely hot and terrifyingly so, and it seemed to be able to draw in soul power, using Divine Sense as fuel.

This indicates that the value potential of the Qingyang Fire is higher than that of the Verdant Sun Bird itself.

The most distinctive feature of Spirit Flame is that it has no limitations.

Of course, Ye Jingcheng also hesitated quickly, after all, the Azure Sun Flame was the Verdant Sun Bird's original Spirit Flame.

If the Verdant Sun Bird dies, it's hard to say whether the Spirit Flame will be extinguished.

Extremely gambling-oriented!

After all, the lifespan of the Verdant Sun Bird is clearly not long.

At the same time, he also knew that if the Spirit Flame were truly and completely extracted, the Taiyi Sect would not put it up for auction.

"Alright, enough said. The starting bid for this treasure is 50,000 Spirit Stone, and each bid must be at least 500 spirit stones higher!" Qiu Xianyun shouted.

The appearance of this treasure has caused even those cultivators who were eagerly anticipating the Purple Palace Jade Liquid to hesitate.

After all, the Qingyang Fire is extremely tempting.

For them, there were actually two options: find an extremely powerful Law Treasure Pill Furnace to continue the fire.

Alternatively, find another Fire Attribute Demon Beast and transfer the fire element to it.

As for cultivators refining it, this kind of Demon Beast fire is extremely violent, and in severe cases it can even affect a cultivator's Divine Sense. To refine it, one must use a special Cultivation Method.

As for cultivators, they value their own foundation more and are afraid of the Qingyang Fire, which uses them as fuel.

Despite these concerns, some cultivators still began to make offers.

Wan Family was the first to make a bid.

"Fifty-three thousand Spirit Stone!"

"Fifty-five thousand Spirit Stone." Ye Jingcheng also made a bid; he was equally interested in the Spirit Flame.

In particular, he also had Treasure Book, but it was unclear whether the distance was too great or because the Qingyang Fire itself belonged to the Verdant Sun Bird, which caused the Treasure Book to not react.

However, the Ye Family has quite a few options for transplanting Spirit Flame. The first is his Crimson Flame Fox, the second is Ye Jingli's Crimson Flame Scale Python, and the third is Ye Jingyun's Purple Flame Green Ox.

"Fifty-seven thousand!"

This time, a voice also came from the private room on the third floor; it was a cultivator from the Zhang Family.

The Zhang Family is Lineage weapon refiners, although they have lost a lot of prestige due to the investigation by the Taiyi Sect.

But it's no exaggeration to say that among the Taiyi Sect's affiliated Lineage, the Zhang Family is currently the strongest.

The patriarchs of the Kong Family and Zhong Family have both perished, and the patriarch of the Jin Family is seriously injured and has little time left to live.

Only the Zhang Family patriarch remained free of any bad news.

Making an offer now naturally makes many people wary.

After all, the Zhang Family is not allowed to participate in the Purple Palace Jade Liquid, so they are absolutely abundant in terms of Spirit Stone.

Sixty-nine thousand.

"Seventy-two thousand!" Ye Jingcheng was not intimidated at all. He was also interested in this Spirit Flame, and perhaps it could even help the Crimson Flame Fox break through to the third rank faster.

Just now, he had slightly loosened the connection with the Spirit Beast pouch, allowing the Crimson Flame Fox to sense it, and the latter showed a great desire for the Qingyang Flame.

This further solidified Ye Jingcheng's resolve.

The Verdant Sun Bird was ultimately purchased by Ye Jingcheng for 88,000 Spirit Stone.

In the Zhang Family's private room on the third floor, Zhang Daoran looked at the scene before him and a smile appeared on his lips.

"Third Uncle, the Ye Family's legacy is quite substantial. It seems they made a fortune in the Taihang Mountain Range." Behind Zhang Daoran was Zhang Changyong, another outstanding member of the Zhang Family.

During their conversation, the two never mentioned the regret of the auction not going through.

Because they were the ones who sold the Verdant Sun Bird in the first place.

They attempted to transplant the Spirit Flame, but without a doubt, they all failed.

The Spirit Flame quickly dissipated, which is why the Qingyang Flame was only about a foot tall.

Furthermore, it rapidly depletes the lifespan of the Verdant Sun Bird.

Even if they transplant other Fire Attribute Demon Beast, it's only a matter of time before they can sustain it; maintaining this primordial Spirit Flame is simply too difficult.

Of course, if one could absorb this Spirit Flame, it would also possess terrifying power.

"Whether it's an inheritance or not, it's a wise move for the Ye Family. They can't buy the Purple Palace Jade Liquid, and even if they did, they wouldn't be able to keep it," Zhang Daoran nodded in approval.

They naturally welcome anything that allows them to make a fortune.

The auction continued, and this time Qiu Xianyun brought out his second grand Law Treasure: a palm-sized jade bottle.

The jade bottle was already filled with purple spiritual liquid.

This doesn't need any introduction from Qiu Xianyun.

At this moment, the aura of the Miaofa True Person returned, causing those cultivators who harbored thoughts to abruptly stop.

The entire situation did not become awkward at all despite the fleeting presence of the True Person.

On the contrary, it became even more popular.

Everyone's attention was drawn to this, and that was before it even began.

Of course, no introduction is needed; the name "Purple Palace Jade Liquid" is its biggest selling point.

The last time a decade's worth of Purple Palace Jade Liquid was auctioned off, it fetched a high price of 130,000 Spirit Stone.

This time, it seems the result will only be higher, not lower.

"The Purple Palace Jade Liquid is a punishment item used by the Jin Family and Kong Family, so the starting bid is 50,000 spirit stones, and each bid must be at least 500 Spirit Stone higher!" Qiu Xianyun didn't waste any more words or introductions this time.

They directly stated the origin of the Purple Palace Jade Liquid and its starting price.

However, while this starting bid benefit may seem genuine, everyone knows it's mostly a sham.

After all, the reputation of Purple Palace Jade Liquid is valuable, so the starting price is meaningless.

"Eighty thousand Spirit Stone!" Ye Jingcheng was the first to raise the price to eighty thousand.

It was as if he wanted to buy it too.

Meanwhile, Ye Jinghe was standing nearby, also had a strange glint in his eyes when he heard Ye Jingcheng making frequent bids.

In his view, the large Spirit Stone mine hidden by the Ye Family must be real.

"Ninety thousand Spirit Stone!"

"Ninety-five thousand Spirit Stone!"

The price was instantly overwhelmed, and soon broke through the 100,000 mark, even faster than before.

It's unclear whether the increased demand or the lack of competition from Golden Core Lineage made them feel more at ease.

Ye Jingcheng also placed three bids in succession, quickly exceeding 130,000.

The last time the price of Purple Palace Jade Liquid was 130,000.

This time it's still at a premium.

When Ye Jingcheng made his final bid of 140,000, he also sat back down in his seat.

We're out of Spirit Stone.

"Patriarch, I still have ten thousand Spirit Stone here!" Ye Jingli spoke first.

"I also have thirteen thousand," Ye Xingyi replied.

"I have nine thousand!"

"I have two thousand!"

"I have eight hundred!"

"I have three thousand!" Ye Jingyu, Ye Jingting Ye Jinghu Ye Jinghe all chimed in.

Everyone strongly supports Ye Jingcheng.

Seeing this, Ye Jingcheng stood up again and called out another price.

"150,000 Spirit Stone." Ye Jingcheng's bid ignited the atmosphere in the room.

The bidding hasn't stopped yet.

"Fifty thousand and two thousand."

"150,080." To everyone's surprise, both bids came from the cultivators on the first floor.

They were all purchased by Foundation Establishment cultivators in the private rooms. These cultivators wore Spirit-Isolating Robe and spirit-blocking veils, making it impossible to see their faces or figures.

The key point is that his tone was very calm, as if he could still make an offer.

Ye Jingcheng was annoyed again and didn't make a bid, but there was still a hint of joy in his eyes.

Although the Ye Family also needs this Purple Palace Jade Liquid, Ye Jingcheng and Ye Xingliu both have it, and they can even mix it well, making it possible to turn one Purple Jade Fruit into two portions of Purple Palace Jade Liquid.

Therefore, the Ye Family doesn't need it in the short term.

As for the future, once the situation stabilizes and prices come down, the Ye Family can continue to compete.

After all, spending too many Spirit Stones could very well cause other aspects of the Lineage to suffer.

Moreover, if the protective Mountain Spirit array has too few Spirit Stone stored up, it will have no means of resistance when faced with a crisis of annihilation.

Even the Purple Palace Jade Liquid cannot guarantee that a cultivator will definitely break through.

A 30% chance is indeed quite high, but there's still a 70% chance of failure!

The final price reached 167,000.

For the entire Taichang Market, apart from large-scale auctions held only once every century, this is definitely a record-breaking event.

Moreover, the person who managed to get the ticket was a mysterious Foundation Establishment cultivator on the first floor.

Seeing this, Ye Jingcheng felt a sense of relief.

Qiu Xianyun was all smiles, extremely satisfied with the auction. He knew he would receive a considerable amount of Spirit Stone after it ended.

He then took out the same jade bottle again.

It is also called Purple Palace Jade Liquid.

The situation then almost mirrored the previous one, and the price quickly reached 150,000.

At this point, things slowed down, but the cultivators who made the bids became the remaining Lineage of Taiqing Commandery.

Among them are the Jiang Family and the Cheng Family. The former is an old Foundation Establishment Lineage, and the latter is Purple Mansion Lineage. They are going all out for this Purple Palace Jade Liquid.

In the end, it was bought by the Cheng Family for 170,000 Spirit Stone.

Prices have reached a new high.

Of course, this also shows that the situation in Taiqing Commandery may indeed be urgent.

Otherwise, the Lineage wouldn't be fighting so desperately.

For the Taiyi Sect, this was also a way of supporting the Lineage of Taiqing Commandery.

They also gained Spirit Stone.

The only Lineage that suffered the most was the Cheng family of Taihang Commandery. Originally, the loss of Taihang Commandery was to be compensated, but now the beneficiaries are the Cheng Family of Taiqing Commandery.

Fortunately, Ye Jingcheng is not certain that he will obtain the Purple Palace Jade Liquid.

"Alright, this fourth and final treasure is a mid-grade third-tier array plate and array flag, which can also be used to set up a mid-grade third-tier mountain-protecting array!"

"This formation should be familiar to everyone; it's the Lesser Five Elements Vajra Grand Formation!"

"The most renowned defensive mountain-protecting formation in the Cultivation World is so powerful that even three late-stage Purple Mansion cultivators wouldn't be able to break it in a short time!"

Upon hearing this title, Ye Jingcheng instantly understood that this Array was prepared for Taiqing Commandery.

This will allow them to hold out longer when facing the Green River Sect.

They were buying time for the sect; otherwise, they wouldn't normally use such Array.

"The starting bid for the Vajra Grand Array is 90,000 Spirit Stone, and each bid must be at least 1,000 Spirit Stone higher!"
