With so many Spirit Stones, how many Elixir Medicines would Lin Jing have to sell to earn that much…
Indeed, to earn more Spirit Stones, opportunity is very important.
“3500 Midium Grade Spirit Stones.”
The person calling out this time was someone in the corner of the venue.
He seemed to have let go as well, and after being silent for a while, he directly added 500 Midium Grade Spirit Stones in one go.
However, this increase in price did not cause any wavering from the Zhang Family; inside the Zhang Family’s private room, Zhang Yuan’s voice remained calm and steady.
“4000 Midium Grade Spirit Stones.”
The other people in the venue did not dare to make any noise at this time and just watched the two people bidding against the Zhang Family.
The atmosphere in the venue was extremely tense for a time.
By now, anyone could understand that behind these two people, there must be someone instructing them to specifically oppose the Zhang Family’s members.
Otherwise, how could an ordinary Cultivator come up with so many Spirit Stones to bid for a Pure Accumulation Pill?
And now, the price has nearly risen to 100 times the inherent value of the Clear Accumulation Elixir itself.
At this moment, on the second floor in the private room where the Liu Clan was located,
Liu Yiyuan was looking at Lin Jing’s position in the hall below, his brows furrowed, deep in thought.
Meanwhile, the bids from several people were also echoing in his ears.
Suddenly…
He seemed to think of something and abruptly stood up.
Walking to the side of Wu Cai Immortal, who was sitting with eyes closed in meditation, he bowed respectfully and transmitted his voice:
“Ancestor! ”
“I just thought of something. Could it be that the Zhang Family will suddenly stop bidding at the critical moment and not continue…”
“Instead, they might use this Pure Accumulation Pill to deplete our Spirit Stones and in doing so prepare to seize the Lifespan Extension Pill at the end.”
“After all…”
“The Zhang Family, although they have been preparing to fight for this Lifespan Extension Pill several months in advance,”
“Even though we, the Liu Clan, and the Li Family, have bought up the market’s Clear Accumulation Elixirs, we still don’t know if the Zhang Family might have prepared in advance.”
“And moreover…”
“The timing of this Pure Accumulation Pill’s appearance is too suspicious. It didn’t appear earlier or later but specifically during this auction.” “Could this be the bait released by the Zhang Family…”
“With the goal of using this Pure Accumulation Pill to draw away our large number of Spirit Stones, thus making us unable to compete with them for the Lifespan Extension Pill?”
Wu Cai Immortal opened his eyes, glanced at Liu Yiyuan, and then transmitted his voice:
“Yiyuan, you are still too young and need to gain more experience with your father.”
“Firstly, it is certain that the Zhang Family does not have any Clear Accumulation Elixir.”
“Secondly, we don’t necessarily have to obtain this Clear Accumulation Elixir; by bidding, we are also just raising the price to deplete the Zhang Family’s Spirit Stones.”
“Moreover, once those two below raise the price to 5000 Spirit Stones, they will back down.”
“We have already thoroughly understood the situation of the Zhang Family. This 5000 Spirit Stones is precisely the price that will make the Zhang Family most uncomfortable; if we raise it further, it might just end up in our hands.”
“In fact, it is not them depleting our Spirit Stones, but us, depleting the Spirit
Stones of the Zhang Family.”
“Besides…”
“Do you really think that just one Pure Accumulation Pill could clear out the poison from the body of that old monster, Zhang Chenfan? You are too naive.”
“After all, he has a Five Elements Mixed Spirit Root.”
“The reason he is still fine is because of his Cultivation Technique.”
“His Cultivation Technique is no ordinary one…”
After Wü Cåi Immortal finished speaking, he turned his head to look at the private room where the Zhang Family was located.
A moment later, he turned his head back to look at Liu Yiyuan.
“Furthermore…”
“As for that niece of Old Man Bai, you might as well stop thinking about her; I could see today that you don’t stand a chance.”
“Ancestor…”
In his eagerness, Liu Yiyuan called out loud.
Wu Cai Immortal’s gaze became sharp, and Liu Yiyuan immediately trembled.
Afterward, he respectfully performed a bow to Wu Cai Immortal:
“Yes, Ancestor…”
Having said that, Liu Yiyuan then stepped back.
After Liu Yiyuan stepped down, the Wu Cai Immortal glanced at the private room where Elder Bai was located before continuing to close his eyes and cultivate.
Meanwhile, the auction below was still ongoing.
The Zhang Family had already called out a high bid of 4500 Midium Grade Spirit Stones.
“5000 Midium Grade Spirit Stones.”
The person who had been competing with the Zhang Family called out the price from the corner, then shouted towards the Zhang Family’s private room:
“Real Person Chenfan, this is the highest price I can offer. If you can bid higher, then take the Pure Accumulation Pill with no regrets.”
“5500 Midium Grade Spirit Stones.”
Zhang Yuan’s voice transmitted, still unchanging; he had been like this from the beginning, calm and unhurried.
After Zhang Yuan’s voice fell, the entire auction hall fell into silence, with no one else speaking up.
And the one who had been bidding against the Zhang Family did as he said, falling silent, with no further moves being made.
The same was true for another person, who no longer made a sound.
At this point, it was naturally Steward Cheng’s turn.
“Ahem… Ahem…”
Steward Cheng cleared his throat.
“5500 Midium Grade Spirit Stones, for the first time…”
“5500 Midium Grade Spirit Stones, for the second time…”
“5500 Midium Grade Spirit Stones, for the third time, sold.”
“Congratulations to the Zhang Family for obtaining this Pure Accumulation
Pill.”
The price of 5500 Midium Grade Spirit Stones was a hundredfold higher than usual.
But…
Fortunately, Lin Jing had been well-prepared mentally; although he was excited inwardly, his expression remained perfectly calm.
After Steward Cheng’s words ended,
a maid immediately came over, collected the Pure Accumulation Pill, and was about to step down from the auction stage. “No need to trouble yourself, just bring it up here.”
The aged voice rang out again.
Following this, the maid turned to look at Steward Cheng, who nodded.
Holding the Pure Jade Box, the maid walked down from the auction stage and headed upstairs.
“Alright, let’s invite the next auction item,” Steward Cheng announced.
Subsequently, another maid came up holding a Jade Slip.
“This is a Cultivation Technique…”
Steward Cheng was still introducing the item, but Lin Jing wasn’t listening; his attention was fixed on the Zhang Family’s private room.
The atmosphere at the scene once again became lively.
It was only after a while that the maid came down from the second floor.
Atter the maid came down, Lin Jing waited tor another quarter ot an hour, and in the midst of the intense bidding amongst the crowd…
Lin Jing left the venue quietly through the entrance the maid had mentioned earlier.
Upon entering it, he discovered it was actually a passageway, and he followed along.
Soon, the path opened up into a hall which wasn’t very large.
Two Yuebaolou stewards were seated at the back, with several maids standing on both sides.
Furthermore, Lin Jing noticed that Elder Yu was also here.
Seeing Lin Jing arrive, the people present stood up.
“Stewards, I’ve come to collect the item I won at the auction,”
“And also, I wish to take away the Spirit Stones I earned from selling the Elixir Medicine.” Lin Jing spoke first.
After speaking, he took out the proof of transaction from the auction and handed it to Elder Yu.
Elder Yu took the proof, examined it carefully, and then passed it to one of the stewards behind him.
After the steward had checked it as well, he said:
“Please wait a moment, Daoist friend.”
As his words ended, the steward turned and left, heading towards the back of the hall..
