The Path to Immortality

Ordinary foundation-building spells, even if they are Taoist jade slips containing true meanings, rather than simple spell copies, are still far from being worth eight thousand spirit stones. Under normal circumstances, it would be good to sell them for two or three thousand spirit stones.

But if the accompanying Yangyan Fire Jade is included, it will be different.

The value of this thing is not low, and the key is that it is a ready-made set, which saves the time and energy of cultivators to search for it by themselves.

Many cultivators present were interested in this powerful spiritual fire spell and competed to bid.

"Yangyan Spiritual Fire... Interesting!"

Fang Ping was also very interested in this spell.

It's not that he planned to buy it to replace the Lieyang True Fire, but on the contrary, this spell was what Fang Ping planned to buy and feed the Lieyang True Fire with the Yanluo Swallowing Fire Art.

It can be said that this auction item was one of his goals on this trip.

He sat up slightly, waiting for the right time to make a move.

"Eight thousand five hundred spirit stones!"

"Eight thousand eight!"

"I'll offer nine thousand spirit stones."

With many foundation-building cultivators bidding, the price of Yangyan Spiritual Fire was raised to nine thousand five hundred spirit stones in a blink of an eye.

This price has already exceeded that of a low-grade spiritual weapon.

In order to cultivate a spell, such a large amount of spirit stones must be paid, and some foundation-building cultivators who are short of money can't help but waver.

Seeing this, Fang Ping knew that the time to make a move had come.

Enter your bid on the water mirror magic weapon: "Eleven thousand spirit stones!"

In order to show his determination to win, so as not to have to pay more in the end after constant entanglement, he directly added one thousand five hundred spirit stones in one breath!

As soon as this price was announced, the entire auction venue was silent for a moment.

Many foundation-building cultivators immediately looked over along the private room number displayed behind the bid, wanting to see who was so rich and powerful that he offered such an astonishing price for a foundation-building spell.

However, Fang Ping sat steadily in the private room and had no intention of showing up at all.

Faced with the curiosity of some foundation-building cultivators, he naturally didn't take it to heart.

"Eleven thousand spirit stones, this fellow Taoist has a good eye!"

"Is there anyone willing to bid a higher price?"

Cai Zhen, who was hosting the auction, saw that Fang Ping seemed to be very wealthy, and he immediately became excited and shouted to encourage him.

Perhaps it was this heroic spirit that intimidated the other cultivators, or perhaps the foundation-building spells of spirit fire were quite common and there was no need to spend so many spirit stones.

No matter how Cai Zhen tried to persuade them, no one was willing to raise the price again.

This made Fang Ping very satisfied with his bidding strategy.

"Congratulations to this distinguished guest, who won the ownership of the Yangyan Spirit Fire Jade Slip with eleven thousand spirit stones!"

After waiting for a while, Cai Zhen could only announce the auction result with a little disappointment.

While new items continued to appear, soon a female cultivator with Qi training base brought the Taoist Jade Slip on a golden plate and sent it to Fang Ping's private room.

After paying the corresponding spirit stones, he picked up the Jade Slip and probed into it with his spiritual consciousness.

After browsing for a while, Fang Ping calmly put away the jade slip, and it was hard to tell whether he was satisfied or disappointed.

But in his heart, he was actually a little surprised.

This spiritual fire spell was indeed very complicated and powerful enough, worthy of the rare material [Yangyan Fire Jade] needed for cultivation.

Moreover, from the perspective of the spell, this spiritual fire had certain similarities with his Lieyang True Fire, both of which had some characteristics of being extremely yang and extremely strong.

This kind of spiritual fire with similar properties would be more stable after being swallowed, and would also increase the Lieyang True Fire the most.

It was worth spending so many spiritual stones!

………

While Fang Ping was distracted by the newly acquired spiritual fire spell, the auction continued.

Unknowingly, it was the 41st lot.

Another maid walked out from the backstage and presented a dark red spiritual herb about two feet tall, exuding a strange ginseng fragrance and spiritual ripples.

Many foundation-building cultivators had never seen this kind of spiritual herb before, and were somewhat curious and confused, not knowing what this spiritual herb was used for.

Fang Ping's eyes lit up, and he sat up a little straighter.

This spiritual herb was an absolute natural treasure, and it had an extremely outstanding effect on body building.

If he could bid for it, it would undoubtedly greatly speed up his body building progress, and he might even be able to truly practice the Five Elements Body Building Method to the fifth level within five years.

This item was also the second treasure Fang Ping had brought for this auction, and he was determined to get it!

"Some discerning cultivators must have recognized the origin of this spiritual herb. That's right, this thing is the [Seven-veined Blood Ginseng Grass] among the natural treasures."

"This natural treasure has a miraculous effect on most common body-building exercises and can greatly speed up the progress of body-building exercises. This thing alone can save a cultivator ten years of hard work. Not to mention for foundation-building cultivators, it has a certain value even for Jindan ancestors."

"In addition, even for cultivators who do not practice body-building exercises, taking this treasure can stabilize the meridians, repair the hidden injuries of fighting, strengthen the body, and delay the decline of qi and blood due to the exhaustion of lifespan..."

Cai Zhen talked freely and introduced the effects of the Seven-veined Blood Ginseng Grass in detail.

Until he aroused the greed of many cultivators, Cai Zhen announced loudly: "This natural treasure has a starting price of 15,000 spiritual stones, and each bid must not be less than 500 spiritual stones!"

The starting price alone is comparable to a good quality mid-grade spiritual weapon.

This astonishing price immediately calmed down some of the foundation-building monks at the top.

Although such natural treasures are good, their spiritual stones are limited and must be used for more important places that can immediately improve their cultivation and strength.

Of course, this is the Western Wilderness, and there are many foundation-building body cultivators with amazing strength and financial resources.

Due to their own needs, the price was quickly raised to 20,000 spiritual stones!

Such a fierce competition is likely to make the Seven-Veined Blood Ginseng Grass the most expensive item since the start of this auction.

Many cultivators who originally didn't care much about this spiritual grass couldn't help but become curious and want to know what the final transaction price of this natural treasure is.

"21,500 spiritual stones!"

Sitting in the back row on the second floor of the auction venue, a female cultivator whose age could not be seen reported her price on the Water Mirror Artifact with trembling fingers.

It can be seen that this price is already quite strenuous for her, and she is obviously not confident enough.

Another cultivator who is still competing with her is a late-stage foundation-building cultivator with a strong physique and vigorous blood like a furnace.

His financial resources seemed to be stronger, and he raised the price by 500 without hesitation.

"The time should be about right..."

Fang Ping, who had been watching coldly, joined the auction again.

He used the same trick again, and started with a bid of 23,000 spirit stones.

Such generosity surprised both the female cultivator whose age could not be seen and the late foundation building body cultivator.

However, in the previous auction of the relatively "common" Yangyan Spiritual Fire, his increase in price could scare away others. But in front of the more valuable Seven Veins Blood Ginseng Grass, just one high price was obviously not enough to force away the competitors.

Immediately, another black-robed cultivator raised the price of 1,000 spirit stones without hesitation and joined the competition.
