Chapter 361: Chapter 161: True Yang Five Elements Sword, Everyone is a Robber Cultivator!_1

As Lu Changsheng lost himself in thought, the auction officially began.

“The first item up for auction at this auction is a ‘Breakthrough Elixir.’

“This Breakthrough Elixir is used for overcoming the mid-stage bottlenecks of Energy Refining cultivators and is suitable for practitioners of various cultivation techniques. Today we are auctioning off ten pills, with starting bids at a hundred Lower Grade Spirit Stones each…”

A graceful maid walked up, carrying a tray, as Yu Ningjun picked up a porcelain bottle to begin the introduction.

Many present already knew the effects of this Breakthrough Elixir.

But he still gave a very detailed introduction.

He explained the ingredients, effects, circumstances, and even identified the Alchemist who concocted it.

And he did so smoothly and without awkwardness, with humor and wit.

“Breakthrough Elixir!”

“I didn’t expect the first item to be a Breakthrough Elixir.”

“I wonder if there will be any High Grade Breakthrough Elixirs later on.”

Many Cultivators in the venue were excited, not expecting such good items from the start.

Breakthrough Elixirs like these are considered cure-all remedies.

Practically every cultivator and family power has a need for them, for use by their younger generations.

“One hundred and ten Spirit Stones!”

“One hundred and twenty!”

“One hundred and fifty!”

Voices continuously called out bids.

But these bidders were well aware not to exceed the market price.

In no time, the ten Breakthrough Elixirs were fiercely claimed.

“First Grade premium Defense Talisman—the Golden Light Bodyguard Charm, can withstand the full-force strike of an Energy Refining cultivator at the Perfection stage…”

“First Grade Lifespan Extension Pill, capable of extending life by five to ten years, although such pills from the same grade will only be effective with the first pill taken…”

“White Spirit Jade Bird, a lower high-quality bloodline spirit bird, capable of traveling three thousand miles a day, can automatically navigate back and forth, making it very convenient for sending messages…”

“Golden Fufly Blade and its subsidiary blades, a matched set of Advanced Level Magic Artifacts, with one main blade and eight subsidiary blades… By simply holding the main blade, you can control the eight subsidiary blades to attack opponents unexpectedly and with relentless sharpness…”



The auction proceeded in an orderly fashion.

Since this was Red Leaf Valley Market’s first auction,

one could say that all these items were rare finds.

However, Lu Changsheng didn’t participate in the bidding throughout the event.

For one thing, he wasn’t interested in the items.

And he also didn’t want to reveal too much of his financial capacity.

After all, in the eyes of the Lu Family, he was simply a moonlighter when it came to income and expenses.

Coming here with his wife this time was just to join in the excitement and broaden their horizons.

“Second Rank Lower Grade Talisman—the Thunder Fire Talisman, comparable to an attack from a Foundation Establishment Great Cultivator. As evaluated by our Yu Family appraisers, these talismans are all Premium Talisman with almost ten to twenty percent more power, starting at a bid of three hundred Spirit Stones, and there are ten in total…”

At that moment, the maid brought another auction item to the stage, and Yu Ningjun introduced it aloud.

“Second Rank talismans, and they’re Premium Talismans?”

“It looks like the Yu, Lu, Bai, and Zheng families have all invested a lot in this auction.”

“These Premium Talismans, not only pack more punch, but are also ideal for Talisman Masters to copy, which might be worth acquiring one to take back.”

Many people in the crowd, hearing the introduction and looking at the talismans on stage, couldn’t help but discuss and feel tempted.

It’s exceptionally challenging for ordinary cultivators to purchase Advanced Level talismans.

One must venture to a large marketplace to seek them out.

And often, one needs to reserve and wait.

Even more so for Advanced Level talismans.

Now with ten Second Rank talismans up for auction, all being Premium Talismans, it naturally stirred interest.

“It looks like these talismans should fetch a nice price.”

Lu Changsheng, observing the notably more enthusiastic atmosphere in the room, couldn’t help but grin.

Knowing the twenty talismans he had Xiao Xiyue auction should bring in a significant profit.

“Four hundred Spirit Stones!”

A bid was immediately placed by an Energy Refining Cultivator, adding a hundred Spirit Stones right off the bat.

Since the starting prices at the auction are always below market value to allow for bidding room.

This cultivator clearly aimed to outbid others in one fell swoop to dissuade competition.

But the rest weren’t fools either.

They knew that ordinary Second Rank Lower Grade talismans were priced just so, therefore the Premium ones would naturally fetch a higher price.

“Four hundred and ten!”

“Four hundred and twenty!”

“Four hundred and fifty!”

In a short while, the bidding for that single talisman soared by half over the starting price.

“Four hundred and seventy!”

“Five hundred!”

Lu Changsheng, watching the price rise, couldn’t help but feel elated.

He hadn’t expected his Second Rank talismans to be so popular.

With these twenty talismans all auctioned off, he’d directly pocket ten thousand Spirit Stones.

Sometimes, making money can be that simple.

“Five hundred and fifty!”

Just then, Lu Yuanding, sitting beside him, spoke up in an indifferent voice, stating a price.

“Father-in-law?”

“Dad?”

Lu Changsheng and others turned to look at Lu Yuanding with some surprise.

They didn’t know why he suddenly placed a bid.

The others at the venue, seeing Lu Yuanding bid, chose not to continue bidding.

Aside from the price of five hundred and fifty Spirit Stones already being quite high,

they also didn’t compete out of respect for the Lu Family, since there were still nine more to go.

“Hehe, I’ve heard from the Fourth Elder that Premium Talismans are particularly well-suited for Talisman Masters to practice copying.”

“Changsheng, Miaoge, you are both Top-Level Talisman Masters now. You can use this talisman for practice, which might help you advance to Second Grade Talisman Masters,” Lu Yuanding chuckled and explained to Lu Changsheng and Lu Miaoge.

Usually, during this kind of auction, the four major families would try not to compete with others.

But for his daughter and son-in-law, he had nonetheless spoken up and made a bid.

And his final bid did not have the sense of intimidation.

“Thank you, father-in-law, for the generous gesture.”

Lu Changsheng, upon hearing this, had mixed feelings of amusement and gratitude.

“Hehe, there’s no need for thanks among family,” Lu Yuanding waved his hand dismissively.

After the first Thunder Fire Talisman was sold, the remaining nine were successively auctioned off.
