Cultivation Begins with Skill Points
Chapter 335 - 334: The Finale Item

Chapter 335: Chapter 334: The Finale Item

"The next item, the Purple Essence Lotus, is a treasure for nourishing the spirit. It can be consumed directly or used to refine elixirs. The starting price is 150,000 Spirit Stones, with a minimum increment of 10,000 Spirit Stones each time."

The voice of the woman in green resonated next to the altar, and Zhong Lin’s gaze also turned towards Jing City.

"Jing City Pill Master, I’ll leave it to you. I’m determined to get this item."

Jing City Pill Master nodded and proclaimed loudly, "200,000 Spirit Stones, I’ll take it."

"250,000 Spirit Stones."

As expected, came the voice from another VIP suite, competing against Jing City Pill Master.

Such a scene didn’t surprise Zhong Lin. It was not like in novels where there’s deliberate targeting; mainly, the Purple Essence Lotus was too precious. As the main ingredient for refining Yun Shen Pills, it’s naturally sought after by many.

"300,000."

Jing City Pill Master unhesitatingly called out a number, attempting to scare off everyone else.

And indeed, as he anticipated, once the number 300,000 was called out, the competing voices immediately vanished, and the Purple Essence Lotus was easily acquired.

Zhong Lin’s face also showed a smile. With the Purple Essence Lotus, cultivation in the Yunling Realm would be unhindered.

The auction continued, with various treasures showcased one after another.

Whether minerals, weapons, secret techniques, or martial arts...

Thunder Swamp Sand, Heavenly Earth Crystal, Blue Tidal Stone, Ten-thousand Year Cold Iron Elite...

Nine-Colored Orchid, Seven Treasures Colored Lotus, Dragon Whisker Root, Ten-thousand Year Purple Tai Sui, Blue Void Grass...

Xuanwu Palm, Jade Void Sword Kill, Water Dividing Seal, World One Seal...

It truly opened Zhong Lin’s eyes. Compared to this, no wonder no one wanted to go to the Luoxing Islands, which seemed like a mere countryside backwater.

Seeing all of this, Zhong Lin was eager to buy everything, but alas, he was short of money and only managed to purchase a few relatively inexpensive spirit grasses and ores.

The Seventh Grade Elixir Recipe that Long Zhao mentioned was soon brought out for auction.

Void Spirit Enlightenment Pill.

After consumption, it allows the user to enter an ethereal state and gain enlightenment on the path of cultivation.

"It’s somewhat similar to the Spiritual Rhythm Dao Fruit, but the Void Spirit Enlightenment Pill should have a better effect, being a Seventh Grade Elixir after all."

The two items together cost over 900,000 Spirit Stones. Zhong Lin wouldn’t necessarily be able to afford it, but now someone else was footing the bill.

A commotion arose among the crowd. It turns out the auction had unknowingly reached the final showcase item.

Zhong Lin immediately sensed many Divine Thoughts scanning from the VIP suites, and he saw an item being brought up.

"Next is the last item of this auction session."

The woman in green waved her right hand, and the red cloth covering the altar was instantly lifted, revealing a beast egg the size of a basketball lying on it.

"This is the Beast Egg of the Sky Shouting Beast. It resembles neither a tiger nor a leopard and has six wings on its back. It flies at incredible speeds with a roar as loud as thunder, scaring even Ghosts and Gods. It’s an ancient exotic species; once grown, it’s comparable to a Xuandan Realm Martial Artist. It’s the best mount for us martial artists.

This creature grows in mountain valleys, can tear tigers and leopards apart even when young, and slightly older demon beasts become its food, showcasing its might."

The starting price is 3 million Spirit Stones, with increments of no less than 100,000."

The words of the woman in green echoed like a thunderclap at the auction, with everyone’s eyes fixed intensely on the beast egg on the altar.

Sky Shouting Beast.

Xuandan Realm.

This indeed is a demon beast that, once adult, can match the Xuandan Realm!

Even if it takes a long time to mature, it doesn’t matter. The family has generations to feed and nurture it. Once grown, it’s like a stabilizing force for the family, guarding it for a millennium.

Moreover, having a Sky Shouting Beast as a mount means great prestige when going out!

"What a treasure."

Zhong Lin couldn’t help but exclaim in admiration.

"Indeed a good item. Looks like a fierce competition is about to begin. No wonder some VIP suites hadn’t placed any bids until now; they were waiting for this!" Jing City Pill Master commented with a smile.

"Jing City Pill Master doesn’t plan to bid?"

"The growth time of the Sky Shouting Beast is too long, and the resources required to cultivate it aren’t something an average person can afford. Only sects or powerful families could manage it. Besides, it’s only comparable to a Xuandan Realm. Our Pavilion Master is a supreme expert in the Xuandan Realm," Jing City Pill Master stated proudly.

"3.1 million Spirit Stones."

As they spoke, someone from a VIP suite made a bid. At such a high starting price, only a VIP could afford it.

"3.2 million Spirit Stones."

Another bid was made, though it seemed rather insignificant.

"4 million."

Suddenly, a VIP suite shouted loudly, increasing the price by millions.

"5 million."

"6 million."

"10 million."

A fierce voice came from a VIP suite, like a tiger overseeing a pack of wolves, raising the price to 10 million, seemingly to dissuade everyone else.

This indeed silenced many voices.

Listening to the voice, it should be Min Yinong of the Blood Moon Sect. Earlier, they hadn’t bid on many treasures, seemingly conserving funds, accumulating for this finale," Jing City Pill Master joked.

The Blood Moon Sect isn’t a power on the New Moon Island but has many business dealings there.

In the end, the Beast Egg was bought by the Blood Moon Sect, leaving only a crowd sighing in disappointment.

The auction ended, and soon waiters delivered the purchased items while collecting the Spirit Stones.

The Purple Essence Lotus was a purple lotus with a misty aura, filled with a mysterious beauty.

In addition to the Purple Essence Lotus, Zhong Lin also spent his own money on Red Flame Yellow Iron, Earth-shattering Jade, and Glazed Grass.

Jing City Pill Master held the Seventh Grade Elixir Recipe sent by Green Moon Commerce in his left hand and an empty jade scroll in his right. Without the slightest reservation towards Zhong Lin and another, a Spiritual Origin surged in his palm. After a while, he handed over the Seventh Grade Elixir Recipe.

This was to duplicate the Seventh Grade Elixir Recipe.

"Brother Zhong, the items are ready."

Zhong Lin gave Jing City Pill Master a deep look and waved his hand, collecting all the items before him.

"Ready."

"It’s good that they’re ready. Let’s go! The Pavilion Master is waiting for you."

"Please."

The two stepped out of Green Moon Commerce and, under Jing City’s guidance, flew towards the distance.

Long Zhao glanced worriedly at Zhong Lin, but Zhong Lin paid him no mind at this moment, his eyes intently focused on Jing City Pill Master’s figure.

The leading Jing City Pill Master, slightly perceptive, turned his head towards Zhong Lin in confusion and asked, "Brother Zhong, is there something unusual on me?"

"Hahaha, no, nothing, just from my perspective, seeing you, Jing City Pill Master, looking so majestic, makes me want to take a few more glances." Zhong Lin laughed heartily.

Jing City Pill Master’s expression softened a bit, his gaze towards Zhong Lin more amiable. After all, everyone loves praise over disdain, especially from a fellow Sixth Grade Alchemist.
