Protagonist:

Xu Zhangqing

In the Descending Tiger Hunting Demon Team, a charming young matron brought over the Rolling Earth Dragon's stomach pouch, a friendly smile on her face, speaking softly: "Dao Friend, this is what you purchased."

Xu Zhangqing's gaze lingered on her for a few seconds, then he reached out to take the item, while expressionlessly producing eighteen middle-grade spirit stones to hand over.

After receiving the spirit stones, the charming young matron smiled sweetly, blinked her eyes in a teasing manner, then turned and leaped, crossing dozens of meters from the roof, quickly returning to the Descending Tiger Hunting Demon Team.

Immediately after, the auction continued.

And the item coming next was more eye-catching than the previous skin, flesh, bone, bone marrow, essence blood, stomach pouch, etc.; many people were extremely expectant.

What?

The Rolling Earth Dragon's core part!

Every demon has one or more core parts.

They contain powerful effects and are closely related to various attributes.

The longer they exist, the higher their value.

The Rolling Earth Dragon is earth attribute, so this core part is also earth attribute.

"Is it coming!"

"Waited so long, isn't it just for this core part?"

"With it, I can try to refine the Qin Hua Golden Core!"

Many people, especially loose cultivators, were rubbing their hands together, each eager to try.

Breaking through from Foundation Establishment Stage to Golden Core Stage almost always requires using a demon's core part.

Therefore, earth spiritual root loose cultivators stuck at this stage appeared very excited.

Xu Zhangqing was seeing the Rolling Earth Dragon's core part for the first time, so he stared curiously.

Soon, the Descending Tiger Hunting Demon Team's team captain, the burly Wang Tianba, took out a palm-sized yellow crystal from the storage bag he carried with him, holding it up above his head with both hands.

Suddenly, a crisp "Click!" sound came from the ground beneath his feet.

Centered on the person, cracks like spiderwebs split open.

Although it looked like a crystal, it was actually a scale.

As a Great Demon that had lived for five hundred years, the Rolling Earth Dragon had only one such scale.

The scale was like a yellow crystal, emitting the luster of a yellow gemstone under the sunlight.

Rich earth spirit qi seeped out from within; the air, atmosphere, and feeling of the entire square instantly became heavy.

Those nearby seemed to be wearing a heavy shackle.

Their reactions became dull.

The ground beneath their feet became muddy.

Xu Zhangqing stared wide-eyed: "This is the Rolling Earth Dragon's core part?"

Immediately, Wang Tianba shouted loudly: "This is the core part accumulated by the Rolling Earth Dragon over hundreds of years, called 【Earthly Turbid Scale】, containing rich earth spirit qi within, even a wisp of earth qi; not only extremely hard, but weighing several thousand jin!"

"Finally waited for it!" Many people were beside themselves with excitement.

The main event had just begun.

Although the vast majority were just spectators watching the fun.

But those who truly understood, or had a need, could no longer restrain themselves.

Voices of discussion came from his ears; Wang Tianba's mouth corner twitched slightly, revealing a smug smile, then he announced the bidding for this core part: "Starting bid 100 middle-grade spirit stones, each bid must not be lower than 10 middle-grade spirit stones."

"One hundred thirty!"

"One hundred fifty!"

"Two hundred!"

Compared to now, just now was simply small-time trouble.

Previously at most, it was only a few dozen middle-grade spirit stones.

But now, just bidding required ten, or even more.

Soon, the price of 【Earthly Turbid Scale】 exceeded five hundred middle-grade spirit stones.

This was clearly a hurdle, or a watershed.

Those bidding immediately decreased by half, but the price continued to rise.

If described in two words, Xu Zhangqing thought: "Crazy!"

One could see that many people still bidding were now seventy or eighty years old.

No surprise, they should have been stuck at Foundation Establishment Stage for many years.

If they couldn't break through to Golden Core Stage, they wouldn't live for several more years.

Therefore, they all chose to go all out here.

Now it depended on whose savings were richer, whose storage bag had more spirit stones.

The later it went, the fewer people bidding.

But at the same time, the price kept getting higher.

Just now it was five hundred middle-grade spirit stones; now it had already soared to seven hundred.

Although no one was bidding in increments of dozens anymore.

But accumulating ten by ten was also terrifying.

I'm afraid many loose cultivators emptied out their lifetime savings.

Xu Changqing, standing on the roof, was stunned by this scene.

I don't know how long passed, but in the end only two people were still persisting.

No, to be precise, two old men.

"Liu Laogui, you're buried up to your eyebrows, why keep going?"

"Dog-shit Wang Xiang, aren't you the same?"

"Not really the same, I'm three years younger than you!"

"You... go to hell!"

"No way, no way? You're angry already? Ouch!"

Two old loose cultivators, one directly cursing furiously, the other snide and sarcastic.

Logically speaking, one shouldn't laugh at such a solemn occasion.

But whether it was Xu Changqing or the others present, all couldn't help but laugh.

Listening to the two curse back and forth was really interesting.

Xu Changqing looked to the right side; there was a kind old man wearing a cyan long robe.

His eyebrows and hair were both white.

Behind him stood several young juniors covering their faces.

This person was Wang Xiang, whom Liu Laogui had been cursing furiously all along.

Facing his furious archenemy, Wang Xiang was snide and sarcastic while raising his eyebrows and winking.

In short, whatever would anger the other side, that's what he did.

He had a despicable air of: if you don't provoke me, I'll just anger myself to death.

However, although Liu Laogui was angry, he really didn't dare to strike.

Not to mention, this place was Dongqing City under the control of Golden Core Wang Zhenren.

Once things got out of hand, it would definitely draw the other side's dissatisfaction, even punishment.

Most importantly, he was already old and wouldn't live for several more years.

He had the Foundation Establishment Stage realm, but every aspect was declining and dropping.

Now, he only had half the strength of his peak period.

If they really fought, he might not be a match for his archenemy Wang Xiang.

No way, who made them indeed three years younger.

This led to a very awkward situation.

He couldn't win by arguing.

He didn't dare to fight.

Liu Laogui was so angry his beard blew and eyes glared, his forehead turned red.

Xu Changqing squatted down, took out a handful of melon seeds from his Small Storage Bag, watched with great interest, and went "click click" cracking melon seeds.

At this moment, a male cultivator in black clothes approached: "Dao Friend, share some with me."

Xu Changqing turned his head and glanced at him.

This person was short in stature, about half the height of an adult.

He wore a mustache, and his eyes sparkled with sharp light.

He gave the impression of being shifty-eyed, and the first impression wasn't good.

However, Xu Changqing wasn't stingy and gave half the melon seeds to him.

The man said smilingly: "Thank you, Dao Friend, I am Wang Fada, a Talisman Cultivator of Dongqing City."

Xu Changqing thought for a moment and said: "Cai Kun, an... Alchemist of Dongqing City."

Wang Fada bit open the melon seed shell with his large buck teeth, then asked in surprise: "Dao Friend Cai, who do you think will snatch the Earthly Turbid Scale between these two old ghosts?"

Xu Changqing heard this, and with a face of indifference curled his lips: "Whoever wants it can have it!"

He really didn't care which of these two would get the Earthly Turbid Scale.

Nor did he care what reasons the other side had.

Saying a thousand things and ten thousand things, he was just a passerby watching the show!
