There is no future for menial disciples? I draw talismans to achieve immortality

Chapter 354: Obtaining the Earth Spirit

"The Spirit of Earth has finally arrived."

"Haha, this is what I've been waiting for."

"Spirit of the Earth, it's mine."

The Spirit of Earth is a must-have item in the late stage of foundation building. Every cultivator in the late stage of foundation building who wants to advance to the great perfection of foundation building cannot do without it.

At least half of the people who came to Pingyang Market to participate in the auction this time came for the Spirit of Earth. Therefore, when Ye Shanhu took out the Spirit of Earth, the foundation-building cultivators at the scene were excited.

In the box, powerful auras surged.

Ye Shanhu held the white jade bottle and said with a smile: "My fellow Taoists, I believe everyone knows the use of this Earth Spirit. There is no need for me to introduce it in detail. Let's start shooting directly."

"The reserve price for our auction item this time is 60,000 yuan. Fellow Taoists, please place your bids."

To be honest, the starting price of Earth Spirit is 60,000 yuan, which is not high at all.

Generally speaking, the normal price of Earth Spirit is around 100,000 yuan.

Of course, these materials are monopolized by the five major immortal sects, and ordinary people have no chance to obtain them.

The reserve price is a bit low, but an important cultivation resource like the Earth Spirit will definitely not go unsold, so the reserve price doesn't matter.

"I'll give you sixty-one."

After Ye Shanhu made her offer, a cultivator in the middle stage of foundation building immediately spoke up.

"Sixty-two thousand."

"Sixty-three thousand."

"Sixty-five thousand"

"Sixty-eight thousand."

"Seventy thousand."

In the blink of an eye, the bid for the Spirit of Earth exceeded 70,000.

"Seventy-five thousand."

"Seventy-eight thousand."

"I'll give you 80,000."

"I am poor, eighty-two thousand."

"Eighty-five thousand."

"Ninety thousand."

"..."

"One hundred thousand..."

Soon, the bid of the Earth Spirit exceeded 100,000. After breaking through 100,000, more people joined the auction.

"One hundred and fifty thousand."

"..."

"One hundred and eighty thousand."

"..."

"Two hundred thousand."

After a period of crazy bidding, the price of the Earth Spirit rose to 200,000.

At this time, there were fewer bids.

At this time, the price of the Earth Spirit has doubled. Only those who are rich and in great need will pay such a high price.

At this time, there were only two or three people still bidding.

"Two hundred and twenty thousand."

At this time, Xu Changshou in Box No. 1 suddenly spoke.

The price was directly increased by 20,000.

The scene fell silent for a long time before someone in a private room called out, "Two hundred and thirty thousand."

"Two hundred and fifty thousand." Xu Changshou spoke again.

The last person who bid didn't want to follow suit. The price kept going up by 20,000 or so. Who could afford it?

"If no one bids, this Earth Spirit will belong to the distinguished guest in Box Number One."

Ye Shanhu had a natural smile on her lips. The Spirit of Earth belonged to Xu Changshou, and no one could take it away from him.

"and many more."

At this moment, Zhou Heshuo's voice suddenly rang out from Box 3: "I'll pay 260,000."

Ye Shanhu frowned slightly, not expecting Zhou Heshuo to take action.

With his status, it is impossible for him not to get the Spirit of Earth. He must have used the Spirit of Earth a long time ago and has no need to buy it.

He did not participate in the bidding before, and only started bidding after Xu Changshou started, which was obviously targeting Xu Changshou.

Maybe it was because Xu Changshou had snatched away his foundation-building pill before, and he was not convinced.

He calculated that Xu Changshou was very rich and was determined to obtain the Earth Spirit, so he deliberately raised the price.

Little did people know that the Spirit of Earth originally belonged to Xu Changshou, and people were just calling him that for fun.

"Two hundred and eighty thousand."

"Two hundred and eighty-one."

Xu Changshou bid again, and Zhou Heshuo followed suit.

"Three hundred thousand."

Xu Changshou directly offered a price of 300,000.

This time, Zhou Heshuo did not follow up. Three hundred thousand was already a three-fold premium.

If Xu Changshou doesn't want it, he will definitely lose money if he buys it.

Zhou Heshuo's intention was to play a trick on Xu Changshou and make him buy things at a high price.

The Earth Spirit, which originally cost 250,000, now costs an extra 50,000.

"Competing, huh?"

A faint smile appeared at the corner of Xu Changshou's mouth.

"hehe."

Zhou Heshuo's triumphant laughter could be heard from Box 3: "Congratulations, fellow Taoist! The Earth Spirit is yours. I don't have enough Spirit Stones, so I can't snatch it from you."

"Thank you for letting me go."

Xu Changshou spoke lightly, his voice was very calm, and it was impossible to tell whether he was happy or angry.

"Easy to say, easy to say."

"Oh, Manager Zhou is quite resourceful."

"Yes, that person was tricked by him and lost 50,000 yuan in vain."

"That guy is so weird. This is 50,000 yuan, but he's not angry at all. If anyone dares to cheat me out of 50,000 yuan, I'll fight him to the death."

"He must be scared. Manager Zhou is not someone you want to mess with."

The people below were talking quietly, and couldn't help but look down on the person in Box No. 1, thinking that he was afraid of Zhou Heshuo.

The auction continues.

Soon, the Spirit of Earth was delivered to Xu Changshou.

Xu Changshou opened the jade bottle and took a look inside. There was a yellowish substance inside, which looked like smoke but not smoke, and like fog but not fog.

It is the spirit of earth, for sure, and its characteristics are extremely similar to those of the spirit of water.

Putting away the Earth Spirit, Xu Changshou continued to watch the auction.

"Wanbao Pavilion is such a rip-off. Everyone, come and see, what is being auctioned?"

"Wanbao Pavilion is auctioning fakes."

"There's something wrong with the Wanbao Pavilion auction."

suddenly.

The auction scene became chaotic.

A young man with his nose in the air and an angry face came to the auction table. At this time, he was holding two broken swords in his hands.

One part is the end of the hilt, and the other part is the tip of the sword.

The two broken swords were both scarlet in color.

"Huh? It's him. Isn't this the one who just took away the Fire Spirit Sword?"

"What happened to his Fire Spirit Sword? Is it broken?"

"Oh my god, isn't this the Fire Spirit Sword that was just auctioned off? Why is it broken? Could it be that... the one auctioned off by Wanbao Pavilion is a fake?"

"Damn it, how could Wanbao Pavilion do such a thing?"

"Something's wrong. There's something fishy about this auction."

“It’s such a rip-off.”

The monks at the scene suddenly became chaotic.

"This……"

The auction had to be stopped.

Ye Shanhu stood at the auction table with a grim expression, not knowing what to say.

Ye Xinghe hurriedly ran from the backstage to the auction table and hurriedly bowed to the arrogant monk: "Fellow Daoist, is there any misunderstanding?"

"Misunderstanding? See for yourself!"

The young man with his nose in the air shook the broken sword in his hand. Everyone could clearly see that there was a mass of black impurities where the broken sword was. No one knew what it was.

"There is indeed a problem."

"How could Wanbao Pavilion do such a thing?"

"It's so abominable."

"This is a low-quality flying sword."

The auction venue suddenly became even more chaotic.

"Return it, return it to me."

“I want a return, too.”

"You can't take anything from Wanbao Pavilion."

Many people who bought things are clamoring to return them.

The situation is getting out of control.

Although this is a small matter, if it is not handled properly, the auction will definitely not be able to go on.

Most importantly, it will also be a huge blow to the reputation of Wanbao Pavilion.
