Xiao Xiaojin who held his milk jug with one hand stretched his other hand towards the table. His hand spread over and over again as if he was picking off the spirit stones from the auction table.
Xiao Xiaodong half-supported Xiao Xiaojin, carefully wiping the milk on Xiao Xiaojin’s little mouth.
“Welcome to the auction. I am truly honored to meet all of you here.” A graceful female cultivator walked out. She was dressed in a brocade robe and had a hot figure. As soon as she stepped out, those present could not take their eyes off her.
Xu Muan frowned and said,”A Foundation Building cultivator.”
Xiao Jingting blinked his eyes and thought:‘The auction house in Star City is really powerful. The person in charge of the auction is actually a Foundation Building cultivator.’
“No more talking. Please bring up our first auction item, the Foundation Establishment Pill. I believe that everyone understands the function of Foundation Establishment Pill, so I don’t need to say more. This Foundation Establishment Pill’s starting price is three hundred spirit stones.”
“Four hundred.”
“Five hundred.”
“…”
“Eight hundred and eighty.”
“One thousand.”
“…”
Xiao Jingting swallowed and turned his head to look at Xu Muan,“So expensive.”
Xu Muan laughed and said,”It’s not strange.”
Some cultivators of the ninth level of Qi practice that were approaching death could do anything for a Foundation Establishment Pill. Some families, in order to have a strong Foundation Building cultivator, were willing to use up their family assets. For forces like the Ouyang family, one more Foundation Building cultivator meant a stabler position.
Xiao Jingting nodded and said,”That’s right.” After the first Foundation Establishment Pill fetched an astronomical price of twelve hundred spirit stones, the auction finally came to a halt.
“The next item to be auctioned is the Longevity Fruit which can increase a cultivator’s lifespan by five to ten years.” The female cultivator in charge of the auction continued.
As soon as the Longevity Fruit came out, the Foundation Building cultivators in the room started bidding. Although the Foundation Building cultivators had a lifespan of 200 years, it was still short for cultivators. The older they got, the more afraid of death they became. In the end, the Longevity Fruit sold for 380 spirit stones.
Xiao Jingting swallowed subconsciously.
Xiao Xiaodong tilted his head to look at Xiao Jingting and said,”Dad, you are very nervous!”
Xiao Jingting wiped the sweat from his forehead and said,”It’s alright.”
“But, your hands are shaking.” Xiao Xiaodong said.
Xiao Jingting pressed his right hand with his left hand and thought:‘This child really doesn’t need to be so observant!’
“It’s damn expensive here!” Xiao Jingting said gloomily.
Damn it! He originally thought that more than three hundred spirit stones already meant a big fortune. But it turned out that he was still a poor man.
Xiao Xiaodong looked at Xiao Jingting’s nervous appearance and comforted him,”Father, don’t worry. This is just the beginning. The things sold at the beginning are always more expensive and those sold later are much cheaper.”
Xiao Jingting reluctantly smiled and said,”I hope so.”
The auction house had successively auctioned some magic tools and spiritual pills. Compared with the opening items, the preciousness of the items had dropped a lot.
“The next item to be auctioned is two Lotus Pills, the starting price is fifty Spirit Stones.”
Xiao Jingting’s eyes widened. The auction house actually sold Lotus Pills. His Lotus Pills were priced at 40 spirit stones each, and placed on consignment. As a result, they were sold out in a very short time. Xiao Jingting secretly suspected that the Lotus Pills at the auction house now were the ones he had sold before.
“One hundred.”
“One hundred and twenty.”
“One hundred and fifty.”
“Two hundred.”
…
The two Lotus Pills were sold for two hundred spirit stones.
Xiao Xiaodong blinked his eyes as he looked at Xiao Jingting.
Although Xiao Xiaodong didn’t say anything, his expression clearly meant ‘You sold it at a loss.’
Xiao Jingting rubbed his nose and couldn’t help feeling a little awkward. When he advanced to Foundation Building, he wouldn’t need to hide about.
Now, if his identity as an alchemist was exposed, many people would be interested in the source of his alchemy materials. Many of them would probably want to control him and force him to refine pills for some big power. He didn’t want to be a laborer for any of them!
“Golden Leaf Grass, starting price is ten spirit stones.”
Xiao Jingting got excited as he thought:‘Finally it’s here! Golden Leaf Grass is one of the main spiritual plants for refining the Foundation Establishment Pill!’ Xiao Jingting suppressed his excitement and joined the bidding.
The price of Golden Leaf Grass did not climb very much. Although there were also some people bidding, the competition was not very fierce.
Gold Leaf Grass was different from Longevity Fruits, which could be taken directly. Gold Leaf Grass needed to be refined into a pill to play its role. Alchemists were hard to find and there was no guarantee in the success rate of pill refining. The alchemists’ fees were also not low. All these restricted the price of the Golden Leaf Grass. Xiao Jingting offered 45 spirit stones and acquired the Gold Leaf Grass.
After buying the Golden Leaf Grass, Xiao Jingting offered another eighty spirit stones and bought the Golden Lantern Fruit. He finally gathered all the spiritual plants needed to refine the Foundation Establishment Pill.
The good things at the auction were endless but Xiao Jingting could just look at them.
Xiao Jingting still had some spirit stones in his hand. However, he still needed spirit stones to buy spiritual plants needed for the Foundation Establishment Pill, so he didn’t dare to spend them indiscriminately.
After the auction was over, those buyers came out one after another.
