The Path to Immortality

"Welcome all fellow Taoists to come from afar to participate in the auction hosted by Duobao Pavilion."

"Old man Shen Yunlong is the host of this auction."

"This auction lasts until late at night. We have prepared a variety of high-quality magic weapons, elixirs, talismans, spiritual materials, and rare treasures. We guarantee that our fellow Taoists will not be disappointed."

"I believe that many fellow Taoists have participated in the auction hosted by Duobao Pavilion before and are familiar with the rules of our auction. But in order to take care of some monks who are participating for the first time, here is a brief explanation of the rules."

"In this auction, private connections, price increases, intimidation and suppression of other bidders are prohibited."

"Every monk participating in the auction can bid with spirit stones or use other items as collateral. Our auction has specially invited three knowledgeable masters to provide appraisal services for you."

"Finally, no matter the buyer or the seller, once the auction is completed, there will be no returns and no regrets."

At this point, Shen Yunlong's tone became a bit harsher: "If there are any violators, our Duobao Pavilion will give different punishments depending on the severity of the situation."

As soon as he finished speaking, a terrifying coercion from the Golden Core cultivator came from the top floor of Duobao Pavilion.

Although the coercion was not malicious, it was just a slight warning, and it was retracted as soon as it was released, but the tyrannical power that could make the sky collapse and the earth fall apart at a moment's notice, shattering everyone present, still made the people in the auction hall The faces of the monks changed drastically.

Even some of the foundation-building monks in the box who were originally a little careless could not help but change their expressions slightly, and subconsciously tightened their bodies.

"Ancestor of the Golden Pill!"

"Duobao Pavilion actually invited a golden elixir to take charge."

Some of the monks around Fang Ping couldn't help but lose their voices.

Even Fang Ping couldn't help but be surprised by Duobao Pavilion's generosity.

But that's fine. With the Golden elixir monks in charge, no one should dare to mess around in this auction.

Fang Ping felt relieved and looked forward to the next auction.

After waiting patiently for a moment, when the shock brought by the Golden Pill Ancestor gradually dissipated, Shen Yunlong, who was presiding over the auction, said loudly: "Then, I announce that this auction has officially begun!"

"The first auction item is a Jasper Barrier-Breaking Pill!"

After saying that, he clapped his hands, and immediately a maid who was in the middle stage of Qi training walked out from behind holding a gold plate.

"The Jasper Barrier-Breaking Pill can help monks in the middle stage of Qi training to break through to the late stage of Qi training. It is a first-level elixir that assists in breaking through."

"I don't need to explain the value of this elixir."

"Monks who are stuck in a bottleneck, or monks who have juniors in their families who need help, must not miss this opportunity."

"Without further ado, the starting price for this elixir is four hundred spirit stones, and each increase in price must not be less than ten spirit stones!"

As soon as Shen Yunlong finished speaking, the monks present became a little commotion.

No one expected that Duobao Pavilion would bring out such good things as soon as it opened.

The small bottleneck in the middle to late stages of Qi training is still quite troublesome for most monks with average qualifications.

It is common for some monks who are unlucky to be stuck for ten or eight years, unable to make any progress in their cultivation.

There were quite a lot of middle-stage Qi-training monks present.

Immediately, people started bidding one after another.

"Four hundred and twenty spiritual stones!"

"Four hundred and fifty spirit stones!"

"Five hundred spirit stones!"

………

The first-level elixir that assists in breaking through the realm can only be refined by a real alchemist. It is rare in the city of Liang State.

This competition is naturally quite fierce.

In an instant, the price was raised to more than 600 spirit stones, which was already more than the price of a medium-grade magic weapon, and then it gradually slowed down.

"What a generous act!"

Fang Ping looked at the fierce competition for the realm-breaking elixir and hesitated whether to participate in the competition.

With the spiritual stone on his body, it would not be a problem to obtain this spiritual elixir. Moreover, he is only one step away from the late stage of Qi training, and there may indeed be demand by then.

But what if a real first-level alchemist’s inheritance appears in the next auction?

Furthermore, as an alchemy apprentice, he knows more about this kind of auxiliary realm-breaking elixir.

It doesn't mean that using this elixir will definitely break through the bottleneck, but just like the foundation-building elixir, it only increases the chance of breaking through.

But after a brief weighing, he decided to take action.

Alchemy inheritance may not necessarily appear in this auction. However, with my lower level of Four Spiritual Roots, there is a high probability that I will encounter bottlenecks in the later stages of Qi training.

To take a step back, even if I get the alchemy inheritance, I might not be able to refine the Jasper Barrier-Breaking Pill in a short period of time.

"Anyway, I have raised enough spirit stones. Let's buy them later!"

Having made up his mind, Fang Ping continued to watch other monks bid while patiently waiting for the opportunity to take action.

Soon, as the price of the Jasper Barrier-Breaking Pill exceeded seven hundred spirit stones, the number of monks bidding decreased.

No matter what, it's just a pill to help break through a small realm, and the price is actually very high.

Seeing that the time was almost up, Fang Ping promptly called out the price: "Seven hundred and fifty spiritual stones!"

The elder of the small monk family who made the last quotation looked around in surprise when he heard that Fang Ping had raised the price by thirty spiritual stones in one go.

However, Fang Ping just stayed in his seat and ignored the competitors' inquiries.

The elder hesitated for a few seconds, then gritted his teeth and said, "Seven hundred and eighty spiritual stones!"

He also added thirty spirit stones in one go, trying to scare Fang Ping away using this method.

However, Fang Ping was unmoved and raised the price again: "Eight hundred spirit stones!"

The elder of the small cultivator family showed a look of regret on his face and chose not to raise the price again.

It is not that a cultivator family cannot afford these spirit stones, but it is not worth it!

"Eight hundred spirit stones, are there any fellow Taoists who can bid higher?"

Shen Yunlong asked in a bewitching tone, and at the same time promoted the effect of this pill again.

Under his encouragement, another cultivator whose cultivation level could not be seen tried to bid the price, and raised the price to eight hundred and twenty spirit stones.

Fang Ping was a little helpless and called out the price of eight hundred and fifty spirit stones.

This high price, which was obviously higher than the value of the Jade Breaking Barrier Pill, finally stunned the whole audience, and no other cultivator was willing to compete with him.

"Congratulations to this fellow Taoist for winning the Jade Breaking Barrier Pill."

After asking the price three times, Shen Yunlong congratulated Fang Ping.

The dust settled on the warm-up items, and then the maid brought up the second item.

Shen Yunlong, who was quite satisfied with the price of the first auction item, introduced calmly: "The second auction item is a fine-quality mid-grade magic weapon, the Heavenly Thunder Seal!"

"After injecting magic power into this mid-grade magic weapon, it can trigger a thunder to bombard the enemy, and its power is extremely impressive."

"Even ordinary cultivators in the late stage of Qi training would not dare to take the attack of the Heavenly Thunder Seal easily."

"The starting price of this treasure is 500 spirit stones."

A high-quality mid-grade attack magic weapon that can also trigger thunder magic has also attracted the interest of many cultivators in the Qi training stage.

Almost immediately, cultivators rushed to bid.

However, although the starting price of the Heavenly Thunder Seal is 100 spirit stones higher than that of the Jade Barrier Breaking Pill, the bidding momentum is not as good as the latter.

The bid price just exceeded 700 spirit stones, and there were very few people willing to continue bidding.
