Chapter 253

Longevity Starts from Alchemy Grandmaster Main Text Volume Chapter 258 Immortal City Auction, Luo Chen Takes Action As the Peerless Fairy stated the auction item information, one Foundation Establishment True Person after another joined the bidding.

Luo Chen was one of them.

As a third-tier spiritual tree, the economic value of the Xuyang Wood is very high.

When it grows, it can improve the environment and climate to a certain extent, playing a role in harmonizing Yin and Yang.

The exuberant vitality it emits will attract many graded spiritual birds.

Birds like the Peng bird especially like to build nests with Xuyang Wood.

However, the upper limit of this tree is not high; generally, after reaching the third tier, it will not grow again, but will instead harm the earth vein.

Therefore, after the third tier, someone will cut it down.

The bark of the cut Xuyang Wood can be used as medicine, the essence leaves can be used to make magic tools, and the most important tree core is the most precious material on it.

It is also the only material on the Xuyang Wood that can reach third-tier quality.

Refining into medicine can increase the foundation of the divine soul and expand the range of spiritual sense.

Just this one point is what many alchemists crave.

Of course, pill recipes that can increase the foundation of the divine soul are extremely rare, and very few people can utilize them.

The reason why cultivators crave this item is also because of another simple and crude effect.

Burning it with Foundation Establishment True Fire, the spiritual incense produced can quickly repair some divine soul injuries.

The name "Warm Sun Warm Incense" comes from the latter.

This knowledge is not secret, so many people know it.

Therefore, whether or not everyone has divine soul injuries, when they encounter it, they will buy a portion as a backup.

"I used the Asking Heart Mirror to simulate the future, causing excessive consumption of the divine soul."

"Even with the replenishment of Tongyou Elixir, it will take at least several months to slowly recover."

"If there is Warm Sun Warm Incense to nourish the divine soul, it will definitely help me recover quickly!"

Luo Chen made up his mind to bid for this treasure.

The atmosphere of the bidding was not enthusiastic.

But the price kept rising, even without the Peerless Fairy's incitement.

Luo Chen had been participating in it, without using any risky auction methods.

He just bid like that.

Five thousand!

Six thousand!

When the price reached 6, 00, many Foundation Establishment True Persons chose to give up.

It was not cost-effective to spend too many spirit stones for a backup item.

Only two parties were left competing.

When Luo Chen shouted 7, 00 spirit stones, the person competing with him wisely chose not to follow the bid.

It could be seen that Luo Chen was determined to win.

And he himself had items he was determined to win next, so there was no need to waste financial resources on such non-urgent resources.

"Congratulations to the Luo Tian Society for winning this item."

"Next, what is going to be auctioned is a scarce spiritual material..."

Hearing the three words "Luo Tian Society," Luo Chen frowned, and then didn't care anymore.

Such auctions organized by Golden Core major sects generally disclose the information of both parties.

There are many benefits to this.

If you encounter a wealthy and powerful person, you can avoid unnecessary excessive bidding and also avoid hurting harmony.

In addition, everyone knows who the auctioned resources fell into.

It is also convenient for some people to accommodate each other and conduct secondary transactions later.

As for the auction atmosphere not being hot enough and the price not reaching the highest, will it lose part of the profit?

This is not within the consideration of major sects.

They don't look down on those petty profits!

In the end, what they want is this harmonious business atmosphere.

What they want is this stable business model of sustainable development.

You can't hold an auction and have a bunch of people arguing until their faces are red, and even killing people to seize treasures in private, repeating the cycle!

If that goes on for a long time, who would dare to participate in the Immortal City auction if they are slightly weaker?

Disclosing the information can well curb the occurrence of such things.

Even if there are rogue cultivators who really want to kill people to seize treasures in private, after the incident, they are easily blacklisted by the Immortal City side.

Precious auction items appeared one after another.

Luo Chen also took action calmly many times.

A portion of third-tier mineral materials, costing 12, 00 spirit stones; this item was another main material needed for Duan Feng's magic treasure embryo.

In this way, plus the Heavy Profound Nether Water that Luo Chen had previously found at a street stall.

After Duan Feng went back, he could start to complete it.

That second-tier body refining cultivation technique also appeared.

The starting price was not expensive, only 5, 00 spirit stones.

There were very few participants in the bidding; after all, it was just the declining body refining path.

However, one person had been bidding with Luo Chen, which was quite persistent.

The price kept rising, and it had already reached 8, 00 low-grade spirit stones.

"It's Lu Rong of the Shen Gong Sect." Duan Feng frowned.

Sima Huiniang said worriedly: "Because of many small things before, the Shen Gong Sect's relationship with our Luo Tian Society has not been very harmonious. President, should we give up this body refining cultivation technique to avoid deep enmity?"

Deep enmity?

Luo Chen sneered at the corner of his mouth.

He had never actively offended the other party; if they held a grudge because of such a small matter, that was not his fault.

Besides!

Glancing at Wang Yuan, who was quite tempted, Luo Chen said lightly:

"Lu Rong practices body refining, which is well known in the Immortal City."

"A body refining cultivation technique that even he can look up to, even if it is only second-tier, must have its merits."

"Such treasures are naturally owned by those who have money!"

As he spoke, he decisively shouted an absolutely high price.

"Ten thousand!"

It soared directly from 8, 00 to 10, 00.

There were not many people following the bid, and this time, no one asked.

The Peerless Fairy glanced at the private room where Luo Chen was and said lightly: "Gas-Body Same Origin Method, Luo Tian Society bids 10, 00, once!"

In the seat of the Shen Gong Sect.

They didn't have a separate private room and could only sit in the hall, which showed that their status in the Immortal City was indeed not high.

The Luo Tian Society also took advantage of the cooperation with Dantai Jin to get a remote small private room.

Lu Rong's face was extremely gloomy.

10, 00 spirit stones, not too much to say, but definitely not too little.

Their Shen Gong Sect's efficiency in earning spirit stones had always been not very good, and even less was distributed to him.

Usually, just renting a cave dwelling cost 1, 00 every month.

At the auction yesterday, he had also bid for many elixirs needed for cultivation.

Therefore, he was a bit short of money now.

His pleading gaze fell on the man beside him.

"Sect Master, can you lend me..."

Shen Gong Sect Master Fei Qingqiu looked unhappy: "Our generation of cultivators, Qi Refining is Qi Refining, body refining is body refining, but you always like to mix them together. With your little family wealth, do you still want to form a core in this life?"

"But..."

"There is no 'but', if you want to buy, buy it, borrowing spirit stones is out of the question."

Seeing that Lu Rong was still unwilling and tried to bid.

Fei Changqiu reminded: "Bidding high randomly, if you can't take out the spirit stones at that time, don't blame me for not reminding you in advance how serious the consequences are."

Lu Rong clenched his fists instantly.

He hated the private room where the Luo Tian Society was and finally withdrew from the bidding.

As the host Peerless Fairy shouted "10, 00 spirit stones for the third time!"

That second-tier body refining cultivation technique named "Gas-Body Same Origin" fell into Luo Chen's hands.

Inside the private room.

Wang Yuan smiled.

"Luo Chen, I'll make up the spirit stones for you now!"

Luo Chen waved his hand.

"Why talk about this between us!"

"Just lend it to me to study for a while."

Wang Yuan smiled and didn't say anything about making up spirit stones.

Kang Xianqiong, who was watching this scene, only felt that she was so out of place.

She was a little curious about Luo Chen's relationship with these people.

Bestowing a Foundation Establishment Pill to Sima Huiniang.

Bidding for mineral materials for Duan Feng.

Bidding for a body refining cultivation technique for Wang Yuan.

This is too generous!

"Perhaps, this is why so many people are willing to follow him!"

The auction continued.

The further it went, the more precious the things taken out were.

Luo Chen's actions were also more frequent.

However, not every time was successful.

For example, a large second-tier spirit-gathering formation, he especially wanted to bid for it.

If it were arranged on Danxia Peak, its spiritual energy concentration would inevitably be raised to a higher level.

All cultivators of the Luo Tian Society could benefit.

However, there were many bidders for this spirit-gathering formation, and five immortal cultivation families almost fought with their family wealth in the bidding.

Halfway through, Luo Chen withdrew.

Finally, this item was successfully bid by Zheng Kejian of the Gunlong Ridge for 28, 00 spirit stones.

This price could almost buy an ordinary offensive low-grade magic treasure.

It was only because the Zheng family was an alchemy family and was wealthy that they could successfully win it.

Shaking his head, Luo Chen's attention fell on the next auction item.

"Ice Silkworm Cushion, top-grade magic tool!"

"It is a specialty of my Ice Fortress, refined from the silk spit out by the ice silkworms of the Great Snow Mountain, an auxiliary cultivation magic tool."

"During the cultivation process, if you have the help of this cushion, you can make the cultivator's heart as clear as ice, and the sky will not be surprised..."

"Starting price, 5, 00 spirit stones!"

Hearing the miraculous use of the Ice Silkworm Cushion from the Peerless Fairy's mouth, Luo Chen was moved!

Auxiliary cultivation magic tools are extremely rare.

The Ghost God Asking Heart Mirror in his hand is such a treasure.

Such treasures can either add to cultivation efficiency, shield external interference, or have special bonuses for certain secret techniques.

And this Ice Silkworm Cushion clearly has the magical effect of making the mind clear and restraining the birth of inner demons.

"I have walked all the way, which can be called brave and diligent, without stopping."

"Although I think the foundation of each stage is quite solid, the cultivation time is too short... It's fine for a short time, but if it goes on for a long time, it is very likely that Qi deviation will occur."

Regarding his own situation.

If it were before, Luo Chen wouldn't see it very clearly.

But after the Asking Heart Mirror simulation, he had a very clear understanding.

If he wants to walk fast and steadily, he must consider every aspect.

And!

"Since the Ghost God Asking Heart Mirror simulation, my thoughts have always been unable to control the spread, and my emotions have also been ups and downs from time to time. This state is not conducive to cultivation."

"If I have this treasure to help, perhaps it can save me a lot of trouble!"

In this auction, Luo Chen's main goals were Warm Sun Warm Incense and third-tier healing elixirs.

The former can repair the tired divine soul in his simulation.

The latter is a promise to Kang Xianqiong.

This Ice Silkworm Cushion was not marked on the special treasures on the invitation before.

Perhaps it was temporarily taken out by the Ice Fortress for auction.

Luo Chen didn't hesitate and soon joined the bidding.

Finally, after spending an absolutely high price of 9, 00 spirit stones, he successfully won it!

After he won the Ice Silkworm Cushion, many Foundation Establishment True Persons in the field began to value him.

Count it up, since the auction started, Luo Chen had taken action many times.

And mostly, successfully bid!

This not only shows that his auction methods are unique, but also highlights his wealth.

In this way, the next many treasures, if he takes a fancy to them, I'm afraid it will cost a great price!

Many cultivators with shallow family foundations were already praying that that scene would not appear.

The Peerless Fairy's voice sounded lightly again.

"An unrefined sword pill, produced by the Jade Cauldron Sword Sect."

"Those interested can participate in the bidding."

"Starting price 10, 00 spirit stones!"

When the auction item information was stated, a strange silence could not help but appear in the auction hall.

Sword pill!

This is the unique weapon of the Sword Sect in the Jade Cauldron Domain.

Moreover, some occasionally leak out, but there is no such thing as production!

Now it is being openly auctioned by Ice Fortress cultivators?

Of course, it is also possible that it is consigned by others.

But how would the Ice Fortress agree?

Could it be...

Vaguely, some sect cultivators and Foundation Establishment True Persons of sect vassal forces were thinking in a deeper direction.

Thinking is thinking, but the enthusiasm for bidding is not low at all!

After all, the sword pill is a well-known magic treasure embryo.

It can be nurtured at the time of Foundation Establishment and used as a top-grade or even extreme-grade magic tool.

If it forms a core, this treasure even has the opportunity to jump into a life-bound magic treasure.

As everyone knows, magic treasures also have high and low points!

Apart from the grade and type division, it is also divided into ordinary magic treasures and life-bound magic treasures.

The former, as long as there are spirit stones and opportunities, anyone can get one or two.

Even Foundation Establishment True Persons can exert part of their power.

But the latter is completely different!

Life-bound ones are related to life and death and involve the path of the Great Dao.

From the beginning, it is tailored for the cultivator, and the grade has growth potential.

As long as the cultivator continues to cultivate, the life-bound magic treasure can continue to be used until the Nascent Soul stage, Soul Transformation stage, and even after ascension.

Ascension is too far away, let's not think about it for now.

Just within the Golden Core stage, the power of life-bound magic treasures is often greater than ordinary magic treasures of the same level.

After all, it is tailored for the cultivator himself and nurtured with great effort.

Not to mention being able to use it like an arm, it can also perfectly exert the cultivator's means, and there is never such a thing as not being handy.

"An unrefined sword pill?"

Luo Chen's eyes lit up.

He didn't want to switch to the sword path.

It was just that he remembered the gray sword sheath in his storage bag.

That is a magic treasure embryo, and it also has growth potential.

Initially, it was only a low-grade magic tool, but after adding a sword pill, it jumped to middle-grade.

If more sword pills were added, to what extent would the grade be improved?

You know, that sword sheath doesn't need time to nurture, and the activation method is also particularly simple.

He participated in the bidding.

However!

As the price soared and reached 30, 00 spirit stones, he decisively gave up.

"The premium is too serious!"

"This price is too useless for me."

"And after buying it, I also need to worry about the Jade Cauldron sword cultivators looking for trouble, so I won't force it."

As he withdrew, the Shaohua Mountain Yue family cultivator who was the main bidder cast a grateful glance at him.

Luo Chen nodded with a smile.

Everything is unspoken.

This Shaohua Mountain Yue family is an immortal cultivation family proficient in the sword path.

Although it is not based on sword pills, the sword scriptures practiced by the clan are far superior to ordinary cultivators in the sword-controlling path.

The other party desperately wanted this sword pill, also to increase the strength of the cultivators in the clan.

Luo Chen's wealthy appearance before was really worrying.

He gave up in advance now, which can be considered as selling a favor to the Yue family cultivator.

After he withdrew in advance, the other remaining force did not have the determination to win like the Yue family and soon gave up.

Thus, this brand-new sword pill became the property of the Yue family.

"Next to be auctioned is the middle-grade Qi-Harmonizing Elixir refined by the Medicine King Sect, a total of 100 bottles, auctioned in ten times, ten bottles at a time."

"Starting price, 10, 00 spirit stones!"

When the Peerless Fairy's voice just fell.

At this moment.

Luo Chen held his breath!

This item, he was determined to win, and the more the better!
