Eternal Life by Daily Divination

The starting bid for the Moonlight Condensed Pearl was a little lower than Li Chang’an had expected.

However, the subsequent competition was far more intense than he had anticipated.

Various parties began to call out their bids.

There were Independent Practitioner Foundation Establishments, Foundation Establishment Ancestors from various Foundation Establishment Influences, and even Foundation Establishment Cultivators from Golden Core Influences all vying for it.

In the end, the Treasure sold for a price of six thousand two hundred Middle Grade Spirit Stones.

It was bought by a Foundation Establishment Peak Cultivator from the Cyan Cloud Sect.

The man looked incredibly relieved.

’He probably doesn’t have many Spirit Stones left in his Storage Pouch.’

The second auction item that followed, while not of the same quality as the Moonlight Condensed Pearl, still caused quite a stir.

“The second lot is ten Foundation Establishment Pills, two of which are High-quality Foundation Establishment Pills…”

Bai Hao stood on the stage, patiently introducing them.

Li Chang’an was slightly surprised, only because he detected a familiar aura.

A few of the Foundation Establishment Pills were the very ones he had sold.

Who would have thought they would end up at an auction in Yellow Crane Immortal City.

The bidding for the Foundation Establishment Pills could be done in Low Grade Spirit Stones, and the final transaction price was much higher than what Li Chang’an had originally sold them for.

’These guys really made a killing on the price difference,’ Li Chang’an thought to himself.

There was nothing to be done about it.

His own strength was insufficient; he lacked the ability to host such a high-profile auction.

Once he broke through to the Golden Core realm in the future, he would have the strength and qualifications to hold this kind of auction.

Afterward, auction items were brought before the crowd one after another.

The vast majority of Treasures could be bid on with Low Grade Spirit Stones.

Only a few that had reached Tier Three could only be bid on with Middle Grade Spirit Stones.

During this time, Li Chang’an bid several times, purchasing some primary ingredients for refining Foundation Establishment Pills and some Auxiliary Medicines for refining the Five Elements Golden Condensation Pill.

「About four hours later.」

A desiccated Demon Beast corpse, grayish-white all over and about sixty-five feet long, appeared on the auction stage.

Bai Hao introduced it, “Everyone, this item is the carcass of a Tier Three Purple Cloud Lion. A senior from the Cyan Cloud Sect excavated it from the Ancient Wood Secret Realm. Although its flesh and blood essence have been lost and its Demon Core has been removed, its Tier Three Demon Bones are still a rare material…”

Below the stage, Li Chang’an’s gaze narrowed as he sized up the Purple Cloud Lion’s carcass.

The Ancient Demon Corpse shown in the divination was likely this Purple Cloud Lion.

Of course, there might be other Demon Corpses.

Li Chang’an couldn’t be certain, so he could only decide to buy it for now.

Soon, Bai Hao announced the starting price.

“One thousand Middle Grade Spirit Stones! Each bid must be an increment of no less than one hundred Middle Grade Spirit Stones!”

The price was not high.

The value of this carcass couldn’t compare to a fresh Tier Three Demon Corpse, as it had few usable materials left.

“One thousand one hundred Middle Grade Spirit Stones!”

Someone quickly called a bid.

After him, someone else made a bid.

“One thousand two hundred Middle Grade Spirit Stones.”

“One thousand three hundred…”

There weren’t many people bidding, only a handful.

Those who could use Tier Three Demon Corpse materials were almost all esteemed seniors whose Skills in a particular field had reached Tier Three.

There were very few such individuals in the entire Southern Domain Cultivation Immortality Realm.

Soon, Li Chang’an joined the bidding as well.

In the end, he won the Tier Three Demon Corpse for a price of two thousand eight hundred Middle Grade Spirit Stones.

’Not bad. The price is reasonable.’

Li Chang’an looked relaxed; the price had not exceeded his expectations.

Not long after, a server hurried over and presented him with a Storage Pouch containing the Demon Corpse.

Li Chang’an, in turn, handed over a Storage Pouch filled with Spirit Stones.

The exchange was made, the deal complete!

The server secretly sent a Sound Transmission: “You have made several consecutive purchases and may have been targeted. When the auction concludes, you may leave through one of Yellow Crane Immortal City’s secret passages.”

“Alright!”

Li Chang’an nodded slightly. He was aware of this custom.

The auction continued.

For the next three days, all sorts of Treasures were brought onto the stage like a flowing river, where they were bid on by the crowd.

During this period, a few more Demon Corpses appeared. They weren’t excavated from an Ancient Secret Realm, but Li Chang’an bought them all anyway.

In addition, he also bought some miscellaneous Demon Beast Flesh and Blood.

Most of the other auction items were ordinary, and he paid them little mind.

However, one Tier Three Low Grade Array-Breaking Treasure caught his attention.

Only because the person who bought this Array-Breaking Treasure was He Qianshan.

’Is this guy buying an Array-Breaking Treasure to use against me?’

Li Chang’an pondered, feeling it was highly likely.

Fortunately, his Array Skill had already advanced to Tier Three Middle Grade, so this Treasure was useless against him.

Before he knew it, the grand auction was coming to an end.

Among the last few lots, another Core Formation Spiritual Object appeared.

But it could only increase the success rate by ten percent at most.

Li Chang’an still didn’t bid, merely watching in silence.

A moment later, the second-to-last feature item was brought out.

“Everyone, this item is also a Core Formation Treasure.”

Bai Hao didn’t waste words and directly pulled off the red cloth.

What appeared before everyone was a Treasure that was deep yellow all over and shimmered with a faint fluorescent light.

Upon seeing this item, Li Chang’an immediately sat up straight.

“This is…”

This feature item was, shockingly, one of the five primary ingredients for the Five Elements Golden Condensation Pill.

It was also the last primary ingredient that Li Chang’an had been searching for.

Profound Yellow Earth!

The many Cultivators below the stage all had excited expressions.

“It’s Profound Yellow Earth!”

“This portion of Profound Yellow Earth is quite substantial! It’s enough to attempt refining the Five Elements Golden Condensation Pill twice, allowing for one failure.”

“The Cyan Cloud Sect is truly generous, willing to part with such a precious Treasure!”

“…”

Before this, no news about it had leaked out.

Even Li Chang’an hadn’t expected to see Profound Yellow Earth at this auction.

His expression turned serious as he made up his mind.

’I must get my hands on this Profound Yellow Earth!’

If he missed this chance, there was no telling when he might find another piece.

“Everyone, I don’t need to elaborate on how precious this item is. The starting bid is five thousand Middle Grade Spirit Stones, and each increment must be no less than one hundred Middle Grade Spirit Stones.”
