Beast-controlling fairy clan

As soon as the Foundation Establishment Pill came out, the bidding atmosphere in the underground cave hall suddenly changed.

I'll give you five thousand spiritual coins!

A monk wearing a face covering shouted out a high price in a deep voice.

But just ten breaths after he finished speaking, someone next to him shouted: Five thousand five hundred spiritual coins.

Hearing this, he couldn't help but glare at the man, and then immediately increased the price: Fifty-seven hundred spiritual coins.

Six thousand two hundred spiritual coins!

Another voice joined the bidding, directly raising the price by another level.

Generally speaking, the price of a foundation-building pill will not be less than five thousand spiritual coins, but it will usually not be more than seven thousand spiritual coins.

After all, this is just a pill taken by monks in the Qi refining stage.

So at this time, Zhou Jiarui next to Zhou Chun also called out the price.

Seven thousand spiritual coins!

He directly added hundreds more spirit coins, pushing the price to a new level.

At this point, many bidders fell silent.

It's not that they can't afford so many spiritual coins, but they need to measure whether it's worth it.

But since it is an auction, there will always be monks who are not short of money.

Seven thousand two hundred spiritual coins.

Another bidding voice suppressed the price given by Zhou Jiarui.

Then it attracted several monks to fight for it.

In the end, the transaction price of this Foundation Establishment Pill was fixed at 8,700 spiritual coins.

But Zhou Jiarui shook his head and gave up the fight as soon as the price exceeded 8,000 spirit coins.

Before coming, the patriarch Zhou Daoyi also gave him a bottom line. Once the bottom line price is exceeded, there is no need to compete.

As the battle for the Foundation Establishment Pill came to an end, the auctioneer quickly took out the eleventh treasure.

It was a second-level high-grade magic weapon. The starting price was as high as 5,000 spiritual coins, and the final transaction price reached 9,800 spiritual coins, which was almost over 10,000.

The few treasures that were taken out later were mostly magic weapons, elixirs, formations and other treasures.

Because the starting prices set were slightly lower than the market price, these treasures were successfully auctioned.

When it came to the eighteen treasures, the auctioneer took out another Foundation Establishment Pill.

It's still the Foundation Establishment Pill. The starting price is the same at 4,000 spirit coins. Each increase in price will not be less than 200 spirit coins.

Hearing what the auctioneer said, the monks who had regretted not buying the Foundation Establishment Pill started bidding again.

There won't be a third or fourth Foundation Establishment Pill later!

Zhou Chun muttered softly, feeling that the auctioneer was playing psychological tactics.

The auctioneer said from the beginning that he would only prepare thirty treasures this time.

But now the number of monks who came to participate in this underground auction in the cave hall was five or six times that number, and most of them carried huge sums of money with them.

Now that we have come and all the money has been raised, if we leave with nothing, wouldn’t it be in vain?

Therefore, the competition for the second Foundation Establishment Pill turned out to be even more exaggerated than the first one.

The final transaction price was actually marked up to 9,500 spiritual coins!

Seeing Zhou Chun here, he not only shook his head, but also lamented that there were too many rich people.

He has killed foundation-building monks before, and he knows exactly how much a foundation-building monk is worth.

Just like the old man in black from the Hualong Sect, even including the two second-level magic weapons that were taken away, his total net worth is only more than 10,000 spiritual coins.

Even if the other party left some things in the cave within the Hualong Sect's main altar, and even if the other party was a relatively poor foundation-building monk, his total net worth could not exceed 20,000 spiritual coins.

And now a Foundation Establishment Pill accounts for almost half of a mid-stage Foundation Establishment monk’s net worth!

This is undoubtedly very unreasonable!

But this is reality!

The scarcity of the supply always exceeds the demand, which means that the Foundation Establishment Pill can only be taken by a few people.

Nowadays, there are so many foundation-building monks in the underground cave hall, and not all of them can build their foundation by taking foundation-building pills.

Even in large sects such as Qinglian Temple, many of the foundation-building monks in them have not taken foundation-building pills.

Don't look at those people now competing for the Foundation Establishment Pill. They all seem to be wealthy.

In fact, the spirit coins they used were most likely the wealth accumulated by a force, not owned by individuals.

Otherwise, unless it was for the sake of his closest relatives, which foundation-building monk would be willing to use half of his family property to buy a pill that was completely useless to him.

After the second Foundation Establishment Pill was sold, the auctioneer took out the second talisman again.

This second talisman is an inner armor, made from the skin of an unknown monster. Its grade is as high as the second-level mid-grade. It is said to be able to defend against three attacks equivalent to a full-strength strike by a monk in the middle stage of Foundation Establishment. .

This object is a self-defense treasure tailor-made for monks in the foundation-building stage, so it also caused many monks in the late-stage foundation-building stage to compete for it.

These late-stage foundation-building monks often have very rich personal fortunes and can afford to buy things worth tens of thousands of spirit coins with their own money.

In order to obtain spiritual objects that can help open up the Zi Mansion, they usually venture to various dangerous places.

There must be a very high demand for such self-defense and life-saving items.

In the end, this talisman was sold for a high price of 6,700 spirit coins.

So when the twenty-fourth treasure came out, Zhou Chun and Zhou Jiarui were stunned, as were many of the monks present.

I saw that they were five spiritual fruits packed in a jade box. The appearance of the spiritual fruits was somewhat like a white pear, and they were all white and crystal clear, as if they were carved from jade.

As you fellow Taoists can see, these are five Spirit Ascension Fruits. Although this object does not have the effect of the Foundation Establishment Pill that can protect monks from being harmed if they fail to build the Foundation, it is half as effective as the Foundation Establishment Pill in helping to attack the Foundation Establishment. ”

Before Zhou Chun could figure out what kind of spiritual fruit it was, the auctioneer had already revealed the answer.

Then the auctioneer stretched out his hand, spread out his fingers and said, The five Spirit Ascending Fruits are being sold together. The starting price is five thousand spirit coins, and each increase in price must not be less than two hundred spirit coins.

As soon as this statement came out, the audience immediately heard enthusiastic bidding and price increases.

Just as the auctioneer said, although the auxiliary foundation-building effect of the Ascension Spirit Fruit is only half that of the Foundation-Building Pill, it is not as effective as the Foundation-Building Pill in protecting monks who fail to build a foundation from harm.

But there are so many of them!

A total of five Spirit Ascension Fruits can allow five monks who are at the twelfth level of the Qi Refining Stage to dare to attack the foundation building level.

This is definitely a very good deal for various cultivating families.

Therefore, there are even more people bidding for the Foundation Establishment Pill at this moment than before.

Zhengchun, how many spirit coins do you have in your hand?

Next to Zhou Chun, Zhou Jiarui suddenly asked about his savings status.

Upon hearing this, he immediately knew that this elder was determined to win.

Therefore, after he pondered for a while, he sent a message and replied: This junior can probably produce 2,400 spiritual coins.

so much!

Zhou Jiarui looked at Zhou Chun with surprise, not expecting that his net worth was so rich.

You must know that even if he has successfully built his foundation, if he does not count the second-level magic weapon given by his family, his net worth is not half as rich as Zhou Chun!

Then he nodded repeatedly and said: That's enough. With the support of your spiritual coins, it should be enough to win these five spiritual fruits!

Saying this, he was no longer in a hurry to bid, and only waited until there were no more bids later.

One thousand and eight hundred spiritual coins.

Ten thousand and eight hundred spirit coins for the second time.

On the auction stage, the auctioneer saw that no one had raised the bid within dozens of seconds, and had already begun the final bidding process in accordance with the rules.

It was only then that Zhou Jiarui shouted in a deep voice: Eleven thousand spiritual coins.

He didn't increase the price by much, he just called out the quotation with the lowest increase standard.

But after the offer was shouted out, the man in front of him hesitated for nearly thirty breaths before shouting again: Eleven thousand two hundred spiritual coins.

Eleven thousand four hundred spiritual coins.

Zhou Jiarui followed up by shouting a price increase, his tone was calm, but he put a lot of pressure on his opponent.

After looking at him in silence for nearly sixty breaths, he said in a deep voice: Eleven thousand six hundred spiritual coins.

Eleven thousand eight hundred spiritual coins.

Zhou Jiarui also raised the price without hesitation as soon as his opponent finished speaking.

The opponent was silent for a longer time now. It was so long that after the auctioneer saw that two or three hundred breaths had passed, he had to start the final bid again according to the procedure.

Eleven thousand eight hundred spiritual coins once.

Eleven thousand eight hundred spiritual coins twice.

Eleven thousand eight hundred spiritual coins three times, deal is done.

Until the auctioneer shouted the word deal, no one shouted a higher price.

After Zhou Jiarui borrowed a thousand spiritual coins from Zhou Chun, he successfully went on stage to complete the handover of money and goods with the auctioneer, and pocketed five spiritual fruits.

At this point, this underground auction has nothing to do with the two of them, and they are destined to be just spectators.

The remaining six treasures are indeed more expensive than each other.

When it came to the twenty-ninth item, treasures such as the Soul-Nursing Jade appeared.

The starting price for a piece of soul-nourishing jade is 10,000 spirit coins, and each increase in price must not be less than 500 spirit coins.

On the auction stage, the auctioneer held a piece of lavender jade the size of a thumb and showed it to everyone in the audience, then put it back into the jade box and reported the price in a deep voice.

The starting price of 10,000 spirit coins is also the highest starting price in this auction so far.

But this cannot stop other monks from pursuing the soul-nourishing jade at all.

Soon one high price after another was reported from the monks who were in the late stage of foundation building.

That's right, the monks who participated in the bidding for the soul-nurturing jade were all late-stage foundation-building monks, and they all came prepared.

For monks in the late stage of foundation building, the most important thing is to open up the Zifu and break through to the Zifu stage.

Although the soul-nourishing jade cannot increase the success rate of their breakthrough, it can nourish and restore the soul in time after the breakthrough fails, giving them the opportunity to continue to attack the Zifu stage.

Therefore, the importance of this object is not at all inferior to some spiritual objects that can increase the success rate of breakthrough.

For some families that do not have a Purple Mansion Stage monk in charge, there is nothing more important than having a Purple Mansion Stage monk in the family to raise the level of the entire family.

Therefore, the competition for this piece of soul-nurturing jade today is bound to be fierce.

The price was seen rising all the way, and soon doubled to more than 20,000 spirit coins.

Twenty-two thousand five hundred spiritual coins!

A monk wearing a grimace mask shouted out the offer in a deep voice.

At this time, there were only three or four people still bidding, and they were all people who refused to give up easily.

Therefore, after this person quoted the price, he was silent for less than twenty breaths before someone quoted him again: Twenty-three thousand spiritual coins.

Twenty-five thousand spiritual coins!

The ghost-faced mask monk immediately increased the price, making the price much too high, as if he was determined to win.

But that still didn't make others give up.

Soon another monk shouted in a deep voice: Twenty-six thousand spiritual coins.

Zhou Chun watched these wealthy men speak again and again until the price was raised to 30,000 spirit coins!

By this time, no one finally shouted for a higher price.

Even for a cultivating family with several foundation-building monks, the cash of 30,000 spirit coins is almost emptying the family fortune.

When the Zhou family first took root in Jiufengling, there was not so much cash in circulation!

After the soul-nourishing jade was sold, the last treasure of this underground auction was also taken out by the auctioneer.

The last auction item is very special, and we can't confirm its value. We can only judge by ourselves whether to bid!

On the auction stage, the auctioneer was speaking as he opened the brocade box in front of him and took out a silver-white token.

The token is only about the size of a palm and is in the shape of a pentagon. One side is imprinted with the golden word Tian Ling, and the other side is carved with mountains, palaces and other scenery.

Without waiting for Zhou Chun to take a closer look at the mystery of this token, the auctioneer had already introduced it: A token for the Tianling Trial. This is a C-level token. When the Tianling Trial starts, , bring a monk in the Qi Refining Stage into the trial place.

According to our information, the next Heavenly Spirit Trial will start within three years.

At this point, he did not introduce what the Tian Ling Trial was, and directly said: One Tian Ling Order, the starting price is one thousand spirit coins, and each increase in price must not be less than one hundred spirit coins. currency.

An unexpectedly low price was shouted from the auctioneer's mouth, making Zhou Chun stunned.

Generally speaking, the last treasure in an auction should be the most precious treasure.

Why did this underground auction place the Order of the Heavenly Spirit with a starting price of one thousand spiritual coins at the end?

The starting price is so low, even if it goes up ten times in the end, it will only be more than 10,000 spirit coins at most!

Uncle Eleven, do you know what the Heavenly Spirit Trial is?

Zhou Chun looked at the Order of the Heavenly Spirit that people were gradually starting to bid on, and couldn't help but ask Zhou Jiarui about the situation of the Trial of the Heavenly Spirit mentioned by the auctioneer.

He had just searched through his memory and confirmed that he had never heard of this Heavenly Spirit Trial.

But judging from the words spoken by the auctioneer, this Heavenly Spirit Trial should have a big origin.

After listening to what he said, Zhou Jiarui shook his head slightly and said: I don't know, my time to successfully build the foundation is also short, and I don't know much about some secrets in the world of immortality. What's more, the trial of the heavenly spirit is probably There is a secret in Jingguo.

After that, he said: If you are really interested, you should wait until you get back and ask the clan leader.
