Beast Taming Clan: I Have a Jade Book

Chapter 490: Chapter 414: The Frenzy of Cyan Yang Spiritual Fire and Purple Mansion Jade Liquid

Especially since he still has the Treasure Book, but it’s unclear if it’s because the distance is too far or because the Cyan Yang Fire inherently belongs to the Cyan Yang Bird, causing the Treasure Book to not react.

However, the Ye Family has quite a few choices for transplanting spiritual fire; first is his Red Flame Fox, second is Ye Jingli’s Red Flame Python, and Ye Jingyun’s Purple Fire Cyan Ox.

“Fifty-seven thousand!”

This time, there was a voice from a third-floor compartment; it’s a cultivator from the Zhang Family.

The Zhang Family is an Artifact Refining Clan, although their reputation took a hit due to the Taiyi Sect’s investigation.

But it’s no exaggeration to say that among the Taiyi Sect’s affiliated clans now, the Zhang Family is the strongest.

The Kong Family Ancestor and Zhong Family Ancestor have both fallen, the Jin Family Ancestor is seriously injured and has little lifespan left.

Only the Zhang Family Ancestor has avoided any bad news.

Bidding now naturally makes many people wary.

After all, the Zhang Family is not allowed to participate in the Purple Mansion Jade Liquid, so they are absolutely abundant in Spirit Stones.

“Sixty-nine thousand.”

“Seventy-two thousand!” Ye Jingcheng isn’t intimidated at all; he’s also interested in this spiritual fire, and perhaps it could help the Red Flame Fox speed up its breakthrough to Tier Three.

Just a moment ago, he slightly loosened the contact with the Spirit Beast Bag, allowing the Red Flame Fox to sense it, and the latter showed extreme desire for the Cyan Yang Fire.

This only firmed Ye Jingcheng’s resolve.

The final price for the Cyan Yang Bird reached eighty-eight thousand Spirit Stones and was bought by Ye Jingcheng.

…

In the third-floor Zhang Family compartment, Zhang Daoran watched the scene before him, a smile on his lips.

“Third Uncle, the inheritance left by the Ye Family is indeed abundant. Looks like they scavenged quite a lot in the Taihang Mountain Range.” Behind Zhang Daoran was Zhang Changyong, another excellent child of the Zhang Family.

In their conversation, there wasn’t a word of regret about not winning the auction.

Because the Cyan Yang Bird was originally sold by them.

They attempted to transplant the spiritual fire, but without a doubt, failed.

The spiritual fire quickly depleted, leaving the Cyan Yang Fire only about a foot high.

Moreover, the Cyan Yang Bird’s lifespan rapidly depleted.

Even if they transplanted to other fire attribute demon beasts, it was just a matter of how long they could persist; truly sustaining such a primordial spirit fire is incredibly difficult.

Of course, if the spiritual fire could be collected, it would also possess terrifying power.

“Inheritance or not, for the Ye Family, it’s wise; they can’t buy Purple Mansion Jade Liquid, and even if they did, they couldn’t keep it.” Zhang Daoran nodded in approval.

For something that could make them a big profit, they naturally welcomed it.

The auction continued, and this time Qiuxianyun brought out the second ultimate treasure, a palm-sized jade bottle.

Inside the jade bottle, it was already filled with purple spirit liquid.

This didn’t require Qiuxianyun’s introduction at all.

At this moment, Master Miaofa’s aura returned, causing those cultivators with ulterior motives to stop abruptly.

The atmosphere didn’t cool down at all because of the flash of a true master’s aura.

On the contrary, it got even more heated.

Everyone was drawn in by it, even without an introduction.

Of course, no introduction was needed; the name of the Purple Mansion Jade Liquid is its biggest draw.

In the previous ten-year auction, the Purple Mansion Jade Liquid fetched a high price of 130,000 Spirit Stones.

This time it would only go higher, not lower.

“Purple Mansion Jade Liquid is a punitive object from the Jin Family and Kong Family, so the starting price is 50,000, with minimum increments of no less than 500 spirit stones!” didn’t waste much time on words or introductions this time.

He directly announced the origin and starting price of this Purple Mansion Jade Liquid.

Though this starting price looked like a real benefit, everyone knew it was quite unrealistic.

After all, the value of the Purple Mansion Jade Liquid is well-known, so the starting price essentially means nothing.

“Eighty thousand Spirit Stones!” Ye Jingcheng was the first to bid, raising it to eighty thousand.

As if he genuinely intended to buy it.

Beside him, when Ye Jinghe heard Ye Jingcheng frequently bidding, a strange light flashed across his eyes too.

In his eyes, the hidden large Spirit Stone mine of the Ye Family must be true.

“Ninety thousand Spirit Stones!”

“Ninety-five thousand Spirit Stones!”

…

The price quickly soared and in no time breached the 100,000 mark, faster than last time.

Whether it’s due to greater demand or due to the lack of competition from Golden Core clans, this seems to put everyone at ease.

Ye Jingcheng consecutively bid three times, soon surpassing 130,000.

The previous price for Purple Mansion Jade Liquid was 130,000.

This time it’s going beyond that.

Ye Jingcheng sat back in his chair after bidding one last time at 140,000.

He’s out of Spirit Stones.

“Patriarch, I still have 10,000 Spirit Stones here!” Ye Jingli was the first to speak.

“I also have thirteen thousand.” Ye Xingyi also spoke up.

“I have nine thousand!”

“I have two thousand!”

“I have eight hundred!”

“I have three thousand!” Ye Jingyu, Ye Jingting, Ye Jing Hu, and Ye Jinghe also all spoke up.

Everyone strongly supported Ye Jingcheng.

Seeing this, Ye Jingcheng stood up again and called out another price.

“One hundred fifty thousand Spirit Stones.” Ye Jingcheng’s price completely ignited the atmosphere in the venue.

The bidding voices hadn’t stopped.

“One hundred fifty thousand and two thousand.”

“One hundred fifty thousand and eight thousand.” These two bids, unexpectedly, came from first-floor cultivators.

Both were Foundation Establishment cultivators in the compartment, wearing Spirit-Blocking Robes and Spirit-Blocking Gauze, with their faces and figures obscured.

Their tone was calm, indicating they might continue bidding.

Ye Jingcheng felt frustrated and did not bid again, but his eyes still carried a hint of satisfaction.

Though the Ye Family also needed the Purple Mansion Jade Liquid, Ye Jingcheng himself and Ye Xingliu already had some, and with good allocation, a Purple Jade Fruit could be made into two portions of Purple Mansion Jade Liquid.

So the Ye Family didn’t need it in the short term.

As for the future, once the situation stabilizes and prices come down, the Ye Family can still compete again.

After all, spending too many Spirit Stones could severely affect other aspects of the family.

If the Mountain Protection Spirit Array lacks sufficient Spirit Stones in case of a crisis threatening the clan, they might not even have the means to resist.

Purple Mansion Jade Liquid also doesn’t guarantee an absolute breakthrough for cultivators.

A thirty percent chance is significant, but there’s still a seventy percent chance of failure!

In the end, the price reached 160,700.

For the entire Taichang Market, apart from those century-old large auctions, this was absolutely record-breaking at this moment.

Moreover, the winner was a mysterious first-floor Foundation Establishment cultivator.

Seeing this, Ye Jingcheng felt a bit gratified inside.

Qiuxianyun looked extremely pleased with this auction’s outcome, knowing he’ll earn a significant share of Spirit Stones afterward.

Then he took out another similar jade bottle.

Once more, it was Purple Mansion Jade Liquid.

Again, the scene almost replicated itself, quickly reaching a price of 150,000.

At this point, it finally slowed down a bit, but those bidding were now clans from Taiqing Commandery.

Among them were the Jiang Family and Cheng Family, the former being an old Foundation Establishment Clan, and the latter a Purple Mansion Clan, fully exerting themselves for this Purple Mansion Jade Liquid.

Eventually, the Cheng Family bought it for 170,000 Spirit Stones.

A new record price.

Obviously, this also shows the situation in Taiqing Commandery is indeed urgent.

Otherwise, these families wouldn’t be so desperate.

For the Taiyi Sect, this is also a way to support the Taiqing Commandery families while gaining Spirit Stones.

The most unfortunate are the families from Taihang Commandery, initially intended to compensate for Taihang Commandery’s losses but now benefitting the Cheng Family from Taiqing Commandery instead.

Fortunately, Ye Jingcheng wasn’t determined to obtain this Purple Mansion Jade Liquid.

“Alright, the fourth ultimate treasure is a Tier Three Middle Grade Array Disc and Array Banner, capable of setting up a Tier Three Middle Grade Mountain Protection Array!”

“This array is surely familiar to everyone, it’s the Little Five Elements Vajra Array!”

“The most famous defense Mountain Protection Array in the Cultivation Realm, even three Late-stage Purple Mansion cultivators couldn’t break it in a short time!”

Upon hearing this name, Ye Jingcheng immediately understood that this array was intended for Taiqing Commandery.

Allowing them to hold out longer against the Qinghe Sect.

To buy time for the sect; otherwise, such an array might not be offered in normal times.

“The starting price for the Vajra Array is 90,000 Spirit Stones, with each bid increment not less than 1,000 Spirit Stones!”
