Immortal Palace of Eternal Life

CHAPTER 21: Auction Part Three (Major Repair)

The high-grade magical artifact, the Blazing Fire Spear, was ultimately sold to a red-robed cultivator for a high price of six hundred and twenty spiritual stones.

As the auction progressed, treasures were being snatched up at high prices, and the atmosphere gradually became more heated.

It was as if spiritual stones were not stones at all, but just ordinary rocks.

Finally, during the ninth auction item, it was time for the Yellow Dragon Elixir.

"Breakthrough Elixir—Yellow Dragon Elixir!"

"This type of breakthrough elixir rarely appears on the market, and the spiritual herbs used to refine this elixir are also rare and hard to find."

"The Yellow Dragon Elixir has powerful effects and is considered one of the better breakthrough elixirs for those in the qi refinement stage."

"It can increase the breakthrough rate by as much as forty percent!!!"

"Fellow cultivators who are stuck at a bottleneck, you must pay attention! This elixir is a rare encounter—if you miss this one, who knows how long it will be before you see another."

"But time waits for no one; spiritual stones cannot buy you time. This opportunity is before you, so don’t hesitate if you need it!"

"The starting price for one Yellow Dragon Elixir is three hundred spiritual stones, with each subsequent bid needing to be at least ten spiritual stones higher!"

In a persuasive tone, Ji Guanglin shouted toward the crowd with great excitement.

He wished he could describe this elixir as something extremely rare.

"Three hundred fifty spiritual stones!"

As soon as he finished speaking, a long-haired cultivator in a blue robe and wearing a monkey mask made a bid, directly increasing it by fifty spiritual stones.

Finally, it was time for the Yellow Dragon Elixir, and Liu Yu perked up, sitting up straight but not rushing to place a bid.

"Four hundred sixty spiritual stones!"

"Four hundred eighty spiritual stones!"

The bids for the Yellow Dragon Elixir increased step by step, but when the price exceeded five hundred spiritual stones, the number of bidders quickly decreased.

Only two remained in fierce competition.

One was a young cultivator in his thirties, dressed in scholarly robes; the other was the initially bidding long-haired cultivator with a monkey mask.

At this point, the bids had reached a very high level; even purchasing a decent high-grade magical artifact would be easy.

The high prices made sweat bead on their foreheads, clearly indicating that this amount of spiritual stones was considerable for them.

"Five hundred thirty spiritual stones!"

"I am a cultivator from the Zhao Family of Nine Head Ridge, where three foundation establishment ancestors are present. I wonder if this friend could extend some courtesy!"

The scholar-robed cultivator stood up, cupping his fists toward the monkey-masked man as he spoke.

His words carried an implicit threat, and the neighboring female cultivator also stood up, applying pressure alongside him.

The two seemed to be a married couple.

However, as soon as the scholar-robed cultivator finished speaking, a powerful spiritual pressure from the late stage of foundation establishment emerged from a private room on the second floor, pressing down onto him.

"Whoosh!"

Locked by this spiritual pressure, the scholar-robed cultivator took several steps back under the force, his face looking extremely unpleasant.

Ji Guanglin squinted his eyes; his smile disappeared, and his tone became less friendly as he coldly said:

"The rules of the auction cannot be broken!"

"Given that this is your first offense, I'll give a light penalty this time. If you offend again, I will directly strip you of your cultivation!"

"We shall see if your Zhao family's foundation establishment cultivator dares to come knocking!"

The faces of the scholar-robed cultivator and his partner turned extremely unpleasant upon hearing this, but they parted their lips and did not dare to retort.

In the end, the monkey-faced cultivator did not place another bid.

It was unclear whether the price exceeded his limit or if the powerful family behind the scholar-robed cultivator made him wary.
