Chapter 63: Hundred-year Dragon Transformation Ginseng, the Main Ingredient for Refining the Dragon Elephant Gu

"Many thanks to everyone for coming to show your support. Without further ado, the auction begins."

The old man in the white robe stood behind the auction platform and immediately announced the start of the auction, not wasting any time with unnecessary chatter.

"The first item up for auction is the High-grade Magical Tool, the Qinglin Battle Halberd. This artifact is unparalleled in offense and possesses infinite power. It is a master's work, and its value is self-evident. The starting bid is three thousand Low-grade Spirit Stones."

As soon as these words were spoken, many Cultivators immediately set their sights on this High-grade Magical Tool.

If they could obtain this High-grade Magical Tool, it would certainly greatly increase their combat power.

"Three thousand five hundred Low-grade Spirit Stones."

"I bid three thousand seven hundred Low-grade Spirit Stones."

"Don't fight me for it, everyone. I bid three thousand nine hundred Low-grade Spirit Stones."

Suddenly, a group of Cultivators began bidding frantically, all wanting to get their hands on this High-grade Magical Tool.

In the end, this artifact sold for the high price of five thousand Low-grade Spirit Stones.

"Gold Marrow Pill, which has miraculous effects even for Cultivators in the late Qi Refining stage. There are three pills per bottle, with a starting bid of one thousand five hundred Low-grade Spirit Stones. There are ten bottles in total; first come, first served."

The old man in the white robe continued to auction off items.

At this moment, Zhou Sui was also staying in a private box, watching the many Cultivators bidding frantically.

Now he could truly see just how many treasures were contained within the auction.

All kinds of pills to increase True Essence and Dharma Power, and pills to break through bottlenecks.

High-grade Magical Tools, strange objects, Spirit Medicines, rare materials, and so on.

It was simply everything one could ask for, enough to dazzle the eyes and make one's heart race.

Of course, he also participated in bidding for some of the pills, such as the Beauty-Preserving Pill, which could maintain a youthful appearance; his three concubines and he himself also needed Beauty-Preserving Pills.

There were also Gold Marrow Pills to increase cultivation, and so on, costing him twenty to thirty thousand Low-grade Spirit Stones.

"Hundred-year Dragon Transformation Ginseng, a heaven and earth Spirit Medicine. Legend has it that it contains a trace of dragon blood. The starting bid is eight thousand Low-grade Spirit Stones. If you want it, you can bid; miss this chance and you won't find another."

The old man in the white robe shouted.

What?!

As soon as these words were spoken, Zhou Sui's expression changed, his heart began to throb violently, and he felt incomparably excited.

The Hundred-year Dragon Transformation Ginseng was one of the main ingredients for refining the Dragon Elephant Gu.

If he obtained this Spirit Medicine, he would have the chance to refine the Dragon Elephant Gu.

Of course, the Dragon Elephant Gu mainly required two primary ingredients: one was the Dragon Transformation Ginseng, and the other was the Savage Elephant Grass. Regardless of which one it was, they were extremely rare Spirit Medicines, hard to come by.

Previously, he had been unable to find similar Spirit Medicines at the Pill Pavilion in Miyun City.

Yet he had not expected to obtain it at the Xuanbao Pavilion auction; it was truly a case of searching high and low only to find it without any effort.

Without a doubt, if he truly refined the Dragon Elephant Gu, he would immediately possess Dragon Elephant Power and gain a Dragon Elephant Body.

By then, where would he need any Body Refining Technique? Utilizing the power of the Dragon Elephant Gu would be enough to make his physique incomparably strong, even comparable to a Dragon Elephant Body.

It could be said that he was determined to obtain this Spirit Medicine and could not let it slip away.

Thus, Zhou Sui began to bid.

He had originally thought that such an astonishing Spirit Medicine would surely be bid on by many people, but Zhou Sui discovered that when he raised the price to eight thousand five hundred Low-grade Spirit Stones, no one else competed with him.

Therefore, this Dragon Transformation Ginseng was logically tucked away into his pocket.

"What is going on?"

Zhou Sui was very curious.

"Husband, the reputation of this Dragon Transformation Ginseng just sounds intimidating. It claims to contain a trace of dragon blood, but in reality, it doesn't contain such a thing at all. If it truly had dragon blood, it wouldn't be the turn of this auction; it would have long been snatched up by a Golden Core Real Person."

Ji Bingyu explained, "Similar hundred-year Spirit Medicines are actually everywhere, and their medicinal effects are no worse than the Dragon Transformation Ginseng. Eight thousand five hundred Low-grade Spirit Stones can be considered slightly expensive. Cultivators don't have many Spirit Stones on them, so naturally, they wouldn't waste their Spirit Stones on a hundred-year Spirit Medicine."

"So that's how it is."

Hearing this, Zhou Sui nodded. Although the Dragon Transformation Ginseng was of immense help to him, it was not the case for other Cultivators; it wasn't even as good as a bottle of Yellow Dragon Pill.

Therefore, after bidding a little, they chose to give up.

"Of course, more importantly, the reason these Cultivators chose not to bid is because there is something even more worth bidding for, and that is the Foundation Establishment Pill."

Ji Bingyu said in a low voice.

Sure enough, as soon as her voice fell, the old man in the white robe shouted excitedly on the platform: "Next, we come to the highlight of our auction, which is a Fine Foundation Establishment Pill. Consuming it can increase the probability of Foundation Establishment by fifty percent. The starting bid is one hundred thousand Low-grade Spirit Stones. First come, first served; everyone, do not miss out."

What?!

As soon as these words were spoken, the Cultivators present immediately broke into an uproar; it was simply unbelievable.

Generally speaking, the Foundation Establishment Pills at auctions were of ordinary quality, and sometimes inferior.

That was already enough to make countless Cultivators drool.

But now, a Fine Foundation Establishment Pill had actually appeared, meaning that after consuming it, one would almost certainly become a Foundation Establishment Cultivator.

So how could it not incite the madness of many Cultivators?

"No wonder those family Cultivators and those sect Cultivators didn't really bid on the previous treasures. Were they waiting for this Fine Foundation Establishment Pill?" Zhou Sui narrowed his eyes.

He felt a bit ominous in his heart.

If it were an inferior Foundation Establishment Pill, he might still have had a chance to buy it.

But now it was a Fine Foundation Establishment Pill, representing a chance to certainly become a Foundation Establishment Cultivator; basically, no one would give up.

Especially those Cultivator families.

A single Fine Foundation Establishment Pill represented the stability of the family for the next two hundred years; they would absolutely not give up.

"I bid one hundred and ten thousand Low-grade Spirit Stones."

Immediately, a Cultivator made a bid.

"One hundred and fifty thousand Low-grade Spirit Stones. I hope everyone will not compete with me; I am the Bai Family Head."

"Get lost! What does the Bai Family amount to? I bid one hundred and sixty thousand Low-grade Spirit Stones."

"Seventeen thousand Low-grade Spirit Stones; no one is going to take away my chance at Foundation Establishment."

In an instant, numerous Cultivators began to bid, one after another, making it very lively.

In just a short while, the price had actually reached twenty thousand Low-grade Spirit Stones.

"Crazy, this is too crazy. It's just a Foundation Establishment Pill, how can it be so expensive?"

Mu Ziyan found it hard to believe.

She had originally thought she might have a chance to bid for a Foundation Establishment Pill, but she hadn't expected the price to rise to twenty thousand Low-grade Spirit Stones in such a short time; it was truly too exaggerated.

"Twenty-five thousand Low-grade Spirit Stones. I hope everyone will give the Lu Family some face; I will certainly repay this in the future."

With a crack, the door and window of one of the private rooms suddenly opened, immediately revealing a white-haired old man wearing a magnificent robe, his aura imposing without anger.

Facing the attention of the crowd, he cupped his hands in greeting one by one, indicating that he was determined to obtain this Fine Foundation Establishment Pill and hoped the Cultivators present would grant him a small favor.

This old man was the famous Lu Family Patriarch, who was also the de facto controller of Miyun City.

After all, the Lu Family Ancestor was in a long-term state of seclusion, and specific matters were all left to this Lu Family Patriarch to handle.

It could be said that he held immense power within the Lu Family and could be described as holding a high and important position.
