It is the main medicine for the Tier Two Spiritual Pill, Yuan Condensing Pill, with a starting price of 1200 spirit stones!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Yuan Condensing Pill can assist Foundation Establishment Cultivators in cultivating the Foundation Strengthening and Essence Nourishing Elixir, so it naturally drew a lot of attention.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, to obtain this spirit medicine, one would need to hire a Tier Two Middle-Grade Alchemist.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"1200 spirit stones!\" Zhou Xun was the first to bid.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"1300 spirit stones!\" At this moment, an elderly man with greying hair, appearing over sixty years old, followed up with a bid.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"1350 spirit stones!\" shouted another middle-aged man with a rounded face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Both of these people were Foundation Establishment Cultivators, and acquiring this spirit medicine surely meant they intended to refine it into a pill.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"1500 spirit stones!\" Upon seeing this, Zhou Xun continued to bid.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was really unwilling to let go of this spirit medicine just like that.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Moreover, a High-Grade Alchemist’s status was equivalent to half that of a Foundation Establishment Cultivator. Additionally, due to his youth, ordinary Foundation Establishment Cultivators would give him some face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Young man, you’re merely at the Sixth-Layer Qi Refining. Why compete against us old folks for this spirit medicine?\" At this point, the elderly man looked towards Zhou Xun’s side, speaking with a smile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing this, Patriarch Song quickly chimed in:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Elder Hu, Alchemist Zhou is a High-Grade Alchemist. Purchasing this spirit medicine is surely related to advancing to Tier Two Alchemist; please do not be offended!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"For such a young person to be a High-Grade Alchemist, I am truly impressed. May I ask under which Alchemy Master you study?\" The old man, hearing this, softened his tone considerably.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In his view, Zhou Xun, as a High-Grade Alchemist, naturally had no use for such spirit grass. His bidding obviously represented a Tier Two Alchemist behind him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"My master does not allow us disciples to use his name outside; I hope Elder can forgive me for this!\" Zhou Xun clasped his hands towards the elder, neither humble nor arrogant.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"If that’s the case, then I’ll let the young friend have this spirit medicine. You may visit my Hidden Jade Mountain at your convenience in the future!\" the old man said with a cheerful smile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Hu family of Hidden Jade Mountain was equally a Foundation Establishment Clan, having two Foundation Establishment Cultivators, both at the Early-Stage Foundation Establishment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Thank you, Elder, for yielding!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thereupon, Zhou Xun successfully acquired the Tier Two Middle-Grade Yuan Condensing Grass for fifteen hundred spirit stones.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After the Yuan Condensing Grass, there were refined Yuan Condensing Pills for auction, so the elder naturally wouldn’t compete too fiercely with Zhou Xun.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Considering that behind a young High-Grade Alchemist, there would at least be a Tier Two Low-Grade, if not a Tier Two Middle-Grade Alchemist.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Such individuals were not ones the Hu family could afford to offend.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For the remainder of the auction, Zhou Xun did not make any more bids.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, he had already spent over a thousand spirit stones; to continue bidding would draw too much attention.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As the auction went on, the treasures became increasingly precious, and those competing for them were increasingly Foundation Establishment Cultivators.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This opened Zhou Xun’s eyes to new experiences.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Especially the final Foundation Establishment Pill, for which the competition was particularly intense.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Finally, Patriarch Song managed to acquire it for a high price of six thousand three hundred spirit stones.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The other families could afford it, but first, purchasing a Foundation Establishment Pill means needing to transport it back, a long journey full of risks.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Secondly, six thousand three hundred spirit stones exceeded the usual price for a Foundation Establishment Pill, making it an unworthy investment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But the Song family was different. With Qingyue Square being the most prosperous market in the Eastern Domain of Xui Country, the family was naturally quite wealthy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Currently, they only had one Foundation Establishment Cultivator. If it weren’t for the background of that Daoist aunt, the Song family would have been devoured long ago.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Buying this Foundation Establishment Pill at this time might allow the family to add another Foundation Establishment Cultivator.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thus, spending a bit more spirit stones was not a concern, and besides, since it was situated right at the Song family’s stronghold, the Pill could be consumed immediately to start the Foundation Establishment process.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For several reasons, the Song family acquired the Foundation Establishment Pill.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After the auction ended, Zhou Xun, accompanied by two disciples, returned to Danhai Pavilion.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Currently, Shi Wanying, being very young, was still unable to control the Alchemy Furnace.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Therefore, she could only follow along to learn some theoretical knowledge or handle the spirit medicines simply.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Having given all necessary instructions, Zhou Xun returned to his cave mansion.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His current Spirit Root Sensitivity had reached twenty-eight points.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Based on his previous experience with the Lanling Lantern Grass, Zhou Xun estimated that this time he could increase Sensitivity by two points.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhou Xun entered the Quiet Chamber, skillfully running the Spring Condensation Scripture, extracting the essence of the Yuan Condensing Grass.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then he merged it with himself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The feeling of sublimation appeared once again, followed by the automatic operation of the cultivation technique.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, the degree wasn’t as obvious as when absorbing the essence of the Blue Spirit Lamp Flower.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After everything concluded, Zhou Xun sensed that he was only halfway to the Peak of Sixth-Layer Qi Refining.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This absorption of essence at least saved him two years of arduous cultivation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Simultaneously, he took out a half-human high, sun-dial-shaped Spirit Testing Spiritual Artifact, the Spirit Testing Disc.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhou Xun procured it specifically to test Spirit Root Sensitivity.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It cost him nearly a hundred spirit stones.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Placing both hands on the Spirit Testing Disc, he then injected a thread of mana.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Quickly the result appeared.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sure enough, the Spirit Root Sensitivity had reached 30 points.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"In at most two years, I will reach the Peak of Sixth-Layer Qi Refining!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Then, with the consumption of that Spirit Gathering Pill exceeding the Premium Level, I will surely reach the Seventh-Layer of Qi Refining in one fell swoop!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>By that time, Zhou Xun would be just thirty years old.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A late-stage Qi cultivator at thirty would undeniably be considered a Foundation Establishment seed in any family.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, once reaching the late-stage Qi Refining, it would be time for him to leave Qingyue Square.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Reaching the late-stage Qi Refining, he also needed to start preparing for his Foundation Establishment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Stay in Qingyue Square, and there would be no opportunity for Foundation Establishment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It should be known that even the local landlord Song family only had the opportunity to purchase a Foundation Establishment Pill due to this Hundred Treasures Pavilion auction.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Walking out of the Quiet Chamber, Zhou Xun felt refreshed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Profound Armor Armadillo crawled to Zhou Xun’s feet and rubbed against him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The armadillo had grown to half human size, becoming a Tier One Middle-Grade Demon Beast.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The speed of its advancement was quite astonishing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even those high-grade bloodline demon beasts mentioned in the Beast Taming Scripture couldn’t compare in the slightest.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Such speed could only be achievable by an earth-grade bloodline.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Could the essence fused last time actually have created an earth-grade bloodline!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thinking of this, Zhou Xun couldn’t help but feel a bit envious.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had absorbed numerous precious spirit medicines, barely reaching the mid-level of Middle-Grade Spiritual Root.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And yet, this creature, with merely a Tier One High-Grade Spirit Medicine, reached earth-grade.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fortunately, the beast was his spirit beast;
