After successfully bidding for the Origin Breath Soil, Lu Xuan scanned the auction information below the meteorite and, seeing no items of interest, made his way to the Commerce Association to pay with Spirit Stones and collect his treasure.
After each treasure item was auctioned, the Commerce Association would make a special mark under the bidder’s meteorite to prevent mistakes during the handover.
Controlling the meteorite and concealing his appearance, Lu Xuan approached a Golden Core Late Stage Cultivator.
Behind the cultivator, a red-haired and bearded elder lay leisurely on a stone chair, the Primordial Infant True Monarch who presided over the area for the Commerce Association.
From a distance, Lu Xuan greeted him and said to the cultivator in front of him,
“Fellow Daoist, I’ve come to collect that Origin Breath Soil.”
“Here are seven hundred and fifty Middle Grade Spirit Stones, please check them.”
With that, a pile of Middle Grade Spirit Stones, glowing brightly with spiritual light, floated in front of the cultivator.
“The count of Spirit Stones is correct, congratulations Daoist for acquiring this piece of Origin Breath Soil.”
After the cultivator verified the count, he handed over the Origin Breath Soil to Lu Xuan.Lu Xuan swept his Spiritual Sense over it, nodded to him, and continued flying the meteorite into the crowd of cultivators.
Half an hour later, his eyes lit up as he saw a peach seed appearing in the hands of the gentle female cultivator.
“It’s here!”
This Spirit Seed was his target, which he had already determined, and he was very eager to possess it.
“Fellow Daoists, this Spirit Seed held by this modest lady is called the Talisman Yin Peach, a Sixth-grade Spiritual Plant.”
“It can grow continuously within the limits of its lifespan, and the Spirit Peaches it bears contain rich and pure Yin Qi, with an extremely delicious taste.”
“During the growth of the peachwood, it will naturally develop miraculous patterns, which are superior materials for making High-Grade Talismans. The longer the age, the higher the quality of the talismans made, which can reach up to Sixth Grade Talismans.”
“The starting bid is seventy thousand Low-grade Spirit Stones, with each increase no less than three thousand.”
The gentle female cultivator removed the simple Prohibitions and Restrictions that maintained the seed’s vitality, presenting it clearly in front of all cultivators.
“A Sixth-grade Spiritual Plant that categorizes by age, capable of bearing Spirit Fruit, meaning one can regularly harvest Spirit Peach light clusters. Once the peachwood reaches its limit, there will be another light cluster as a reward.”
“Moreover, since this Talisman Yin Peach is a superior material for making talismans, the harvested light clusters are very likely related to talismans.”
Lu Xuan, who had recently intended to gather such Spiritual Plants, naturally would not miss this Sixth Grade Talisman Yin Peach Spirit Seed.
“Eighty thousand Low-grade Spirit Stones!”
As soon as the bidding started, a cultivator immediately called out loudly.
“Eighty-five thousand Low-grade Spirit Stones!”
It wasn’t only Spirit Plant Masters who were attracted by this Talisman Yin Peach Spirit Seed, but also many cultivators skilled in making talismans.
They naturally wanted to obtain peachwood capable of making High-Grade Talismans.
As for how to cultivate it afterward, that was something to worry about later.
The bidding price quickly soared to one hundred and ten thousand Low-grade Spirit Stones, already surpassing the value of ordinary Sixth Grade Spiritual Seeds.
“One hundred and twenty thousand Low-grade Spirit Stones, my name is Fu Bingzhen, an elder of the Fu Family, and I am determined to get this Talisman Yin Peach Sixth Grade Spirit Seed, hoping my fellow Daoists can do me the favor of stepping aside.”
A deep voice reached everyone’s ears.
The crowd looked towards the source of the voice; a tall and composed middle-aged cultivator stood at the center of the meteorite, unaffected by the various gazes coming from all directions.
The cultivator had a Golden Core Late Stage Cultivate Level, with a giant talisman shadow behind him, constantly changing and seemingly containing infinite mysteries.
“The Fu Family? Is that the talisman-making family famous in the Liyang Region?”
“Exactly, all the cultivators of the Fu Family are experts in talisman making, capable of creating hundreds of High-Grade Talismans. With Fu Bingzhen being an elder of the Fu Family, he naturally wouldn’t miss this natural talisman-oriented Spiritual Plant.”
The appearance of the middle-aged talisman maker caused quite a stir among the present cultivators, with several who were still interested showing clear hesitation.
With the Fu Family’s extensive business and reputation in talisman making in the Liyang Region, few felt confident competing with them.
Lu Xuan sought the seed with an urgent heart and naturally paid no mind to those concerns.
“One hundred and thirty thousand low-grade Spirit Stones.”
He nonchalantly raised the bid directly by ten thousand Low-grade Spirit Stones.
“Fellow Daoist, within the Liyang region, there are few who can maximize the use of the Talisman Yin Peach. You must consider whether, after obtaining the Talisman Yin Peach Spirit Seed, you have the confidence to refine an equally or even more valuable high-grade talisman.”
The Jindan Cultivator transmitted his voice to Lu Xuan, with a tone that was uncertain whether advising or warning.
Having said that, he raised his voice toward Qingtan:
“I’m willing to bid one hundred and forty thousand Low-grade Spirit Stones.”
“You don’t understand, although I may not be able to refine a sufficiently high-rank talisman, the value of what I obtain will surely far exceed the plant itself.”
Lu Xuan secretly thought to himself.
“Charm friend, there is something you must make clear. First and foremost, this is a Spiritual Seed, and only secondly it is a material for talisman-making.”
“You’d better consider cultivating the Spirit Plant before refining talismans. And the Fu Family doesn’t have any notable Spirit Plant Masters, do they?”
Lu Xuan’s voice was calm as he transmitted his words to Fu Bingzhen.
Fu Bingzhen found himself at a loss for words, a flicker of concealed annoyance passing through his eyes.
“Add another five thousand.”
He shouted to the gentle female cultivator.
“One hundred and fifty thousand.”
Lu Xuan, without a moment’s hesitation, immediately followed up, adding five thousand Spirit Stones more than him.
“One hundred and fifty-three thousand.”
The middle-aged cultivator pondered for a moment and then raised the bid again.
Although he was eager to obtain this Talisman Yin Peach Spirit Seed, he had to consider the cost. The current price was already significantly overvalued, enough even to fetch a Sixth-grade Magical Instrument.
“One hundred and sixty thousand.”
Lu Xuan called out once more. For him, any mark-up was acceptable as the Light Cluster’s returns were even greater.
Upon hearing this price, Fu Bingzhen snorted coldly. A hazy black mist drifted from the edge of the meteorite, shrouding his figure and appearance, as he flew toward another treasure division.
“The Sixth-grade Talisman Yin Peach is mine.”
A smile played on Lu Xuan’s lips, his heart filled with pleasure.
He went over to pay the Spirit Stones and took possession of the Talisman Yin Peach Spirit Seed.
The seed was the size of a baby’s head, brimming with vitality. Its surface was encircled by a faint Yin Qi, with countless bizarre folds forming intricate patterns, resembling natural runes.
Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, he couldn’t plant the seed just yet and had to temporarily store it in the Gluttonous Insect Pouch.
Not long after returning to the Spiritual Plant section, Qingtan brought out a pale golden Spiritual Seed. Under the thin seed coat, it seemed as though a monkey embryo, the size of a fist, was curled up inside. Upon a closer look, the embryo transformed into a golden silhouette.
“The Spiritual Seed in this young lady’s hand is called the Heart Ape Fruit, a Fifth-rank Spirit Plant unique to the Monkey Monster tribe. When ripe, it can fortify the flesh body, and also be used to brew high-grade Ape Demon Wine,” Qingtan spoke softly.
“The starting bid is eighteen thousand Low-grade Spirit Stones, and each increment must not be less than a thousand Low-grade Spirit Stones.”
“It’s an old acquaintance.”
Lu Xuan thought to himself, recognizing the Heart Ape Fruit he had previously cultivated, the main ingredient for making Ape Demon Wine, and readily planning to include it in his collection.
After all, he couldn’t let his supply of Spirit Brew run low in his cave abode.
When cultivating Spiritual Plants became tiring, he would count on it for a boost, satisfying his desires for taste and refreshment.
Luckily, there weren’t many cultivators interested in this Heart Ape Fruit Spirit Seed. Lu Xuan managed to win the bid smoothly for twenty-nine thousand Low-grade Spirit Stones.
