87: Foundation Building Pill in hand
The Fairy Auctioneer was also constantly trying to liven up the atmosphere: "You can buy a foundation establishment pill for just 15,000 Spirit Stones."
"Whether you are visiting relatives and friends, or giving it to your nephews and nieces, it is a matter of great Face!"
"The bid is at 15,000 Spirit Stones, are there any further bids?"
"17,000 Spirit Stones!"
"Good!"
"Over there, 20,000 Spirit Stones!"
"Over here, 25,000 Spirit Stones!"
One of the Cultivators, who looked like a family head, gritted his teeth: "30,000 Spirit Stones!"
At this moment, the scene fell silent; this foundation establishment pill had already been bid up to three times its value!
Normally, if you wanted to buy one, about 10,000 Spirit Stones would suffice.
As a result, when placed at an auction with so many people competing, and being the very first item up for auction, it had unknowingly reached 30,000 Spirit Stones.
The Fairy Auctioneer also felt that the price was about right and did not continue to encourage everyone to bid.
At this time, the people in the private rooms began to bid!
A young man's voice came from the private room on the first level, near the front right: "31,000 Spirit Stones!"
The Cultivator who looked like a family head, whose Face had just been flushed red with excitement, was gripping his hands tightly.
Hearing this bid, it was as if all the strength had been drained from his body.
His Face began to turn pale, his hands unconsciously loosened, and he slowly slumped down in defeat.
He no longer made any bids!
Gu Changan was also quite anxious; he had originally thought that obtaining this foundation establishment pill wouldn't be so easy, but he hadn't expected it to be this difficult!
Now, only the people in the private rooms were bidding, but most were only adding 500 or 1,000 Spirit Stones at a time!
The price quickly reached 35,000 Spirit Stones!
Gu Changan was struggling with whether or not to bid and cap it directly!
Should he bid 40,000 Spirit Stones, or 50,000?
Would 40,000 Spirit Stones be enough to intimidate these people?
Then, as if he had made up his mind: "40,000 Spirit Stones!"
Everyone present looked at Gu Changan; he stood out like a chicken mixed in with a flock of ducks, appearing very unconventional.
Gu Changan felt his body being scanned by over a dozen Divine Senses, but he forcefully suppressed his fear and pretended to be indifferent!
At this moment, the Cultivator in the left private room who had bid 36,000 Spirit Stones felt offended!
He was a person of status in the private room; how could he be outbid by a Loose Cultivator in the main hall?
He let out an angry roar: "Good! Good! Good!"
"Let's see if you have more Spirit Stones or if I do!"
"42,000 Spirit Stones!"
Gu Changan feigned calmness, his fingers in his sleeves digging in so hard they were almost drawing blood.
"50,000 Spirit Stones!"
Gu Changan directly added 8,000 Spirit Stones, reaching 50,000.
This price was directly five times that of a normal low-grade foundation establishment pill.
Everyone was stunned. The Loose Cultivators in the main hall thought this must be some big shot!
Perhaps a powerful outsider who wanted to buy a low-grade foundation establishment pill for his junior!
Some Cultivators in the private rooms also felt that if a person could take out 50,000 Spirit Stones to buy a single low-grade foundation establishment pill, either he was a fool!
Or he truly didn't care!
Or he had some terrifying force behind him!
The Cultivator who had previously roared also disappeared, as if he had been strangled.
In this world, the higher one's cultivation, the more one knows, and the more timid one becomes!
Afraid of offending people they didn't even know when they had offended!
The old man beside him said: "Young Master! Let it go!"
"50,000 Spirit Stones is simply not worth it!"
"If the Master went to the Treasure Pavilion to buy it, at most he would pay a price, and 20,000 Spirit Stones would have secured it!"
"Now it's five times higher, it's not worth it!"
The Young Master he addressed had a Face that kept changing, his eyes flickering with uncertainty.
Not knowing what he was thinking.
Originally, he had felt offended by a Loose Cultivator and was somewhat embarrassed and angry, unable to save Face!
But now he realized the other party might be a hidden big shot!
Then there was no question of being offended.
Having figured this out, it could be considered finding a way to save Face for himself!
"I know!"
"I'll let him have it this time!"
"I was only buying this foundation establishment pill as a gift anyway!"
The old man beside him also breathed a sigh of relief.
If you were to ask who was the most surprised and pleasantly surprised, it would be the Fairy Auctioneer on the stage!
She began to shout excitedly: "Oh, my goodness!"
"Standing down in our audience is a Senior!"
"Bidding 50,000 Spirit Stones!"
"Are there any further bids?"
After the Fairy Auctioneer looked around and found there were no more sounds.
"50,000 Spirit Stones, going once!"
"50,000 Spirit Stones, going twice!"
"50,000 Spirit Stones, going three times!"
"Congratulations to this Senior for winning the low-grade foundation establishment pill!"
"Senior, you can go to the backstage to complete the transaction, or you can continue to participate in the auction."
Gu Changan pondered for a moment; staying here to auction would only become more and more dangerous!
Even if there were good things, with his 50,000 Spirit Stones, he probably wouldn't be able to buy much!
If he left now, his intentions would be too obvious!
This person was here specifically to bid on a foundation establishment pill, so it was highly probable he was not a Foundation Establishment Stage Cultivator!
Although Gu Changan had been scanned by Divine Senses over a dozen times, no one dared to confirm his cultivation level.
After all, he had just spent 50,000 Spirit Stones.
How could someone so generous be a Qi Refining Cultivator?
Therefore, everyone felt that Gu Changan had hidden his cultivation!
Although Gu Changan desperately wanted to leave, after some mental brainstorming, he decided to stay put.
Soon the second item was brought up, then the third! The fourth!
These items were much more normal!
For example, a first-grade Spirit Medicine for the Qi Refining Peak!
For example, a Magical Artifact for the Foundation Establishment Early-stage Cultivator, or a second-grade Spirit Medicine!
The prices were much more normal, none exceeding 1,000 Spirit Stones!
Seeing this, Gu Changan felt like a sucker!
But there was no other way; this was the only channel to quickly obtain a foundation establishment pill, and also a way to escape by fishing in troubled waters!
If he had gone to the Treasure Pavilion to buy it normally!
Not to mention whether they would sell it to you, just after you bought it, you would still have to escape their pursuit!
Now it was just a bit expensive, but at least he could get his hands on it.
Anyway, he possessed the treasure gathering basin; were Spirit Stones even an issue for him?
Having figured this out, Gu Changan felt much better!
At this time, the Fairy Auctioneer brought out an item; on a red tray was a round bead.
It was about the size of an egg, with blue electric light flashing continuously inside.
Gu Changan wondered what this was.
A discerning Cultivator nearby had already given the answer: "thunder shock talismans?"
The Fairy Auctioneer smiled slightly: "I believe everyone has already recognized it!"
"This is the legendary thunder shock talismans!"
"As for why it is legendary?"
"Currently, all the thunder shock talismans seen on the market are obtained from excavating ruins or Ancient Tombs in the past."
"And some are from Immortal Caves of Cultivators!"
"As for why this thunder shock talismans is being auctioned?"
"It is because the owner said that this thunder shock talismans was not stored properly!"
"Its power is much smaller than a normal thunder shock talismans!"
"It is probably only 1/10 of the original!"
"If it is not auctioned now, it might rot in his hands, and it won't be able to sell for any price!"
"A normal thunder shock talismans is roughly equivalent to a strike from an Early Golden Core Stage Cultivator!"
"This current thunder shock talismans is roughly equivalent to a strike from a Foundation Establishment Early-stage Cultivator!"
"Which Fellow Daoist needs it?"
"This thunder shock talismans can be used for research!"
"Used for collection!"
"All are possible!"
"Starting bid is 1,000 Spirit Stones!"
