I am cultivating immortality in the chaotic world.

Chapter 34 "Make a fortune in one go!"

As an old man with a wrinkled face stepped onto the auction stage, the scene suddenly became quiet.

"boom."

The auction hammer in his hand knocked lightly on the square table on the auction table like a gavel, and soon five women in cheongsams and veils came out from behind the auction table, each holding a mahogany plate in their hands.

The plate was covered with a red cloth.

The old man walked up to the first woman, lifted the red cloth, and waved his right hand casually. Streams of spiritual energy formed several lines of large characters in the air.

"First lot."

"Spiritual treasure, the mid-grade alchemy furnace of the foundation-building period, the 'Eight Trigrams Cauldron', the success rate of the elixir refined with this furnace will be higher."

"The starting price is 20 Spiritual Stones, and each bid increase must not be less than 10 Spiritual Stones."

Just by casually showing off his skills, he has already proved his strength. To be able to use such sophisticated means to use spiritual energy out of his body, one must be at least at the seventh level of the Foundation Establishment Stage.

It’s almost like reaching the state of perfect foundation building.

As long as the remaining life span is sufficient, it is basically a foregone conclusion that one will break through to a higher realm and become a Golden Core powerhouse.

A mid-grade alchemy furnace in the foundation-building period is actually a mid-grade yellow spiritual treasure according to the underworld jargon. A mid-grade yellow spiritual treasure is not worth much money. One mid-grade yellow spiritual treasure is only worth 50 spirit stones and is not yet eligible for auction.

But this spiritual treasure is an alchemy furnace, so the price is another matter.

A spiritual treasure like the alchemy furnace is extremely difficult to forge, and its price is several times higher than that of spiritual treasures of the same level.

soon--

Many people began to bid.

"50 pieces!"

"60 pieces!"

"100 pieces!"

Finally, one of the middle-aged men in the hall stood up with his hand raised high and shouted out a high price of 200 spirit stones to win the first lot. This price was almost reasonable. After all, the alchemist was the money tree, and the alchemy furnace was the alchemist's bread and butter, so the price would naturally not be low.

However, no one in the private room bid. Those who could sit in the private room basically had their own power behind them. They had been training alchemists for a long time, and this kind of mid-grade alchemy furnace in the foundation-building stage was not something they were interested in.

They didn't come here for the items that were auctioned earlier, the highlight is yet to come.

Chen Lu was looking at the auction table below with some boredom. He was not very interested in the consecutive items that came on the market. They were either about alchemy or talisman making. He had no idea about these two Taoist arts.

until--

When the red cloth of the fifth item was unveiled, Chen Lu straightened up and finally found what he wanted.

"The fifth lot."

"Entry Jade Slip, green entry 'Root of Self-Destruction'. Each time you self-destruct an organ, you will obtain a random white or green entry. The more entries you obtain, the more random entries you will obtain."

"The starting price is 50 Spiritual Stones, and each bid is 10 Spiritual Stones."

"500 pieces!"

Chen Yu picked up the sound transmission talisman on the table next to him, inputted spiritual energy into it and spoke softly. The voice was automatically changed when it reached the sky above the hall, and it sounded like an old man's voice.

The meaning of this entry to him is equivalent to a full-strength attack at the first level of the Golden Core Stage, and 500 spirit stones are absolutely appropriate.

A talisman with a power equivalent to a full-strength attack from a ninth-level Foundation Establishment Stage costs 300 spirit stones. He doesn't know the price of a talisman with a power equivalent to a full-strength attack from a first-level Golden Core Stage, but it will definitely not be less than 1000 spirit stones.

After all, the gap between the Golden Core Stage and the ninth level of the Foundation Establishment Stage is too big, they are not at the same level at all.

The old man looked up at the second floor, and after seeing the red light flashing from the jade inlaid outside the No. 7 private room, he picked up the auction hammer and tapped it lightly on the square table: "No. 7 bids 500 spirit stones."

Then he glanced at the people present, and seeing that no one was holding up a sign, he continued.

"500 Spiritual Stones for the first time!"

Everyone in the hall below the stage started talking with strange expressions. They were not surprised that someone would spend 500 spirit stones to buy a green entry. Entries jade slips were extremely rare in the market. Any one that was on the market, unless it was too rubbish, would be more than enough to sell for spirit stones.

just
Would someone who is qualified to sit in the No. 7 private room use this term?
Or is it for the people below? That makes sense.

In the crowd in the hall, a young man was looking anxiously at the middle-aged man next to him and said anxiously: "Master, why are you hesitating? Bid your price!!!"

"I tell you, this entry is absolutely priceless to you. Don't mention 500 spirit stones, you have to bid for it even if it's 2000 spirit stones!" The middle-aged man thought hesitantly for a while, but still didn't raise his hand. At this time, the first hammer strike of 500 spirit stones had begun. The middle-aged man looked at the young man next to him with some concern.

"Liu Gongfeng, it's not that I don't believe you, you know my initial entry is "Nine Bull Strengths"."

"This entry can indeed bring me eight random entries, but they are just random white or green entries. It is still unknown whether the entry effect is useful to me. Even if it is useful, it will be difficult for me to break through the Jindan stage. As long as I can't break through the Jindan stage, it will be difficult to earn back so many spirit stones."

His name is Wang Tiedan. He is fifty-six years old and is a cultivator at the third level of the foundation-building stage. He started from scratch and built a small family of his own, a small foundation-building family hundreds of miles away from Fufeng City. Although it does not have any large industries, it can still earn more than two hundred spirit stones every year.

Life is pretty comfortable.

Until a year ago, he met the young man next to him. It was said that he had escaped from his village that was robbed by bandits. Out of kindness, he took him in. Later, he slowly discovered that this man named Liu Zide was very smart.

He often utters new words that he has never heard before.

Things like traders, industry barriers, omni-channels, and endorsement harvesting.

He gave him a lot of ideas, and with the help of the young man, his business grew bigger and bigger. Winter is about to come this year, and he expects the net income this year to be 500 spirit stones, which is equivalent to doubling the annual income.

He also formally hired the young man to be a servant of his family and serve as a military advisor, giving him advice on a daily basis.

Basically no mistakes.

This time, after seeing the list of items for the annual auction at Wentianfang City, Liu Gongsheng ordered him to bring all the spiritual stones that the family could use. He traveled for five days and finally arrived at Wentianfang City before the auction. This was for nothing else but this green entry "Root of Self-Extermination".

"Master, you are stupid!!!"

Seeing that 500 spirit stones had been hammered for the second time, the young man said anxiously, "Master, can you change your mindset? Who told you that I took this entry just to make you stronger?"

"Let me ask you, if there is a person standing in the Wentian Market right now, saying that he possesses the two items "Strength of Nine Oxen" and "Root of Self-Destruction", and is about to cut them on the spot, in front of everyone's eyes, to see what item he will get randomly, do you think people will be very interested in watching?"

"I definitely want to see it!"

"This is human nature. What is the deepest part of human nature? It is the desire to gamble. Reason suppresses most people and they try to restrain themselves, but watching others gamble also gives them a sense of excitement and enjoyment."

"Is it too much to charge you one spirit stone for the ticket to such a wonderful show?"

"We are planning to put on such a grand show. Recently, there is the annual auction of Wentianfang City and the Tiandao Secret Realm of Fufeng City. In the next few days, a large number of cultivators will definitely gather in Fufeng City. It can be said that the time is right, the place is right, and the people are right. For the children of the sects and families, it is really rare to watch such a grand show with only one spirit stone!"

"One spirit stone is nothing to them, but if they don't watch such a big show this time, they won't be able to watch it again in the future."

"As long as we can attract 3000 viewers, that'll be 3000 Spiritual Stones. If there are 5000 viewers, that'll be 5000 Spiritual Stones straight into our pocket!"

"Leave it to me. I'm confident that I can make a fortune!"

"I'm going to start a groundbreaking live broadcast of beef chopping right here in Fufeng City!!!"

"Those who don't have much money can watch in real time through the "Mother-Child Realm" at the outermost part, and the fee is 1 tael of silver. Those who are slightly richer can watch from the rooftops of the nearby buildings, where the view is better. They will be charged 10 taels of silver. The children of the sects and families will be arranged to watch in real time in the nearest position, and the fee is 1 spirit stone!"

"There are no entertainment activities in Daxia Country. There will definitely be a lot of people coming here just to watch the fun."

"Master, believe me, as long as you take a picture of this entry, I can give you a brand new tomorrow!"

"You don't have to worry about embarrassing yourself, sir. This place is eight hundred miles away from our base camp. We will go home after we make this money. No one will know about this when we return to the base camp!"

Perhaps the young man's excited face infected the middle-aged man, or perhaps the young man's past achievements made the middle-aged man quite trustful of him, and finally, before the third auction hammer fell for 500 spirit stones.

The middle-aged man stood up and raised his hand card, shouting in a trembling voice: "1000 Spiritual Stones!!!"

"1200."

Chen Lu in the private room glanced at the middle-aged man in the hall below, thought for a moment and raised the price again. This was already his bottom price. If it was any higher, it would be not worth it. The price-performance ratio was too low to buy an entry for self-destruction at this price.

"1500 Spiritual Stones!!!"

Almost as soon as Chen Yu finished speaking, the middle-aged man raised his hand again and roared with all his might: "I'll give you 1500 Spiritual Stones!!!"

This was almost all the wealth his family had accumulated over the years. For him, this was a big gamble.

Maybe you will really become rich overnight as Liu Gongfeng said, but you may also lose everything in the blink of an eye.

"."

Chen Lu, who was sitting in the private room, shook his head speechlessly. The price was a bit too outrageous. He would not increase it any more. 1500 spirit stones to buy such a green entry, was that crazy?
The person bidding below wouldn’t also have the term “the strength of nine oxen”, right?

However, he was still quite curious about what entries this person would randomly get after possessing the "Root of Self-Severance" if he really had great strength. Unfortunately, each cultivator's entries were secret and would not be easily revealed to others under normal circumstances.
